Chapter: 6101

According to the original flight path from New York to Beijing, they would only need 13 hours to complete the journey; however, since Eastern European warfires are still smoldering, the flight path needs to detour around Russian airspace, which adds an extra two hours to the journey.

So long was this flight route that the cost of chartering a plane alone was over two hundred million yuan, but at this moment there were no passengers on board except for the flight crew members.

At this time, the flight crew had already opened up autopilot and let the plane fly steadily in the 11,000-meter-high airspace. However, just then they suddenly received wireless communication from air traffic control, requiring them to immediately turn around over Hudson Bay, return to the United States, and land at a small airport in Burlington, Vermont.

Burlington City is only sixty kilometers away from the US-Canada border, while the small airport in its northern part is even less than twenty kilometers away from the border line.

This airfield has been gradually abandoned by the civil aviation system over the years and is now mainly used for private flying clubs in the United States.

Since air traffic control did not explain why they suddenly wanted the flight to return, and required it to land at an airport that was almost abandoned by the civil aviation system, the captain decided to ask through wireless communication why he had to return.

Air traffic control only told them that the order to return came from US air traffic control, but they didn't know what was going on. However, the flight crew must follow the instruction and fly back, or else they might be arrested for disobeying air traffic control.

The pilot naturally dare not defy the instructions of air traffic control, so the plane flew over Hudson Bay and turned around to return to the United States.

Two F-35 fighter jets from the Vermont National Guard also took off immediately to escort them into Canadian airspace.

At this moment, Wu Tianlin watched as the flight software showed that Chen Zimin's plane had already completed its turn-around and was flying back to the United States. He then reported to Wu Feiyan: "Sir, that plane has returned."

Just after he finished speaking, he received another message from a scout and quickly reported again: "Sir, I just received news from the front scout. Two F-35 fighter jets from the Vermont National Guard are taking off in an emergency heading north towards Canada, estimated to be monitoring Chen Zimin's plane."

Wu Feiyan nodded slightly and said calmly, "If Chen Zimin and that treasure are indeed on this plane, then the treasure will undoubtedly be handed over to the US military first. The Rockefeller family has deep roots in the United States; since they lost the item, the US military will certainly return it to them."

After speaking, Wu Feiyan spoke coldly, "Inform Wu Yongzhen and immediately mobilize all undercover agents hiding within the US Department of Homeland Security to follow up on this national security operation. First, confirm where the plane is going to land, then figure out if Chen Zimin and the Rockefeller family are looking for that antique on this plane. At the same time, dispatch all available personnel to northern New York to standby, once we determine that the item is on the plane, we'll immediately take action to retrieve it at any cost!"

Wu Tianlin was shocked and took a while to regain his composure, speaking nervously, "Lord, if we directly snatch from the US Department of Homeland Security's hands, won't things get out of hand?"

After speaking, he quickly advised again, "I think if the item is indeed on this plane, we can just wait for the US Department of Homeland Security to return it to the Rockefeller family and then retrieve it from them afterwards."

Wu Feiyan's expression was cold and unwavering, saying definitively, "No! As long as the item is confirmed to be on this plane, we cannot delay even for a moment! If there are any changes, leading me to miss it, the reputation of the Qing family, which has been built over three hundred years, will also be affected. Therefore, we must take advantage of the fact that the Department of Homeland Security does not yet know the purpose of this item before making our move!"

Wu Tianlin's heart was shocked.

He couldn't understand it; Wu Feiyan, who had always been cautious, was willing to take such a huge risk.

Stealing an item from the Department of Homeland Security on US soil is almost like a large-scale terrorist attack!

Once things happen, no matter the outcome, the Qing family will become America's number one enemy, with a nature that is even worse than that of Bin Laden. This is almost like self-destruction!

No matter what, we shouldn't take such a huge risk.

However, Wu Feiyan didn't think that way.

She had already lived for four hundred years out of her five hundred-year lifespan.

Now she's about to enter the real middle and old age stage.

Although breaking through the Qing family's three-hundred-year foundation is very important, nothing is more important than her own life. JrNovels.com
