Chatty Hollywood

? “John, if we can get out alive this time, who do you want to see most?”

After being silent for a while, William suddenly asked his friend in a low voice.

At this time, another three hours have passed.

Although William's thigh that was penetrated by the steel bar did not suffer serious blood loss due to John's timely treatment, coupled with other injuries, William still felt that he was getting weaker and weaker.

Now, he was desperate, so he asked John such a question.

As a front-line patrol officer who often handles emergency situations, John can naturally tell that something is wrong with William's state.

In particular, William's question reminded John of some nonsense said by his son who likes two-dimensional animation -

"Dad, when you are on a mission, don't say things like "I have no regrets anymore" or "I will go back to my hometown to get married after this," or something like that will happen!"

——Well, when John heard his son say this, he felt that the child must have been confused by watching cartoons.

After all, John and his wife have been married for sixteen years, and their relationship has always been very good, otherwise there would be no such nonsense son.

——So "returning to your hometown to get married" is simply impossible.

However, now that he heard the question of who William wanted to see most after going out, John really felt that something was wrong.

Of course, he couldn't persuade William to insist on it just because of William's words, so he could only chat with him intermittently.

However--

"If I can get out alive this time, I will definitely win back Laura. When we get remarried, I will ask you to be the best man!"

——Laura is William's ex-wife. The two separated due to some previous things, but they have always been emotionally connected.

If William had said this in normal times, John would have been happy and cheering for him, but now——

"This seems to mean the same thing as "go back to your hometown and get married"!!"

At this time, John finally understood what his son meant, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, the two of them were trapped in the ruins of the Twin Towers at this time, and John's injuries were actually not much lighter...

"Rescue comes quickly!"

While John encouraged William,

I prayed in my heart.

For the first time in his life, he hoped that gods really existed.

"It really doesn't work. As long as it can save us, even ghosts can!"

John thought drowsily...

**********

It was in this situation that Alexis found John and William.

After hearing Charlotte's plan, she, River and Frances Farmer quickly arrived in New York on the east coast with the help of the "Ovelia" ghost ship.

After arriving, Francis Farmer directly used his ability to control the leylines of this place, and began to roughly feel where the trapped people were.

With her support, River and Alexis walked through the ruins to confirm the information given by Farmer.

As ghosts, their ability to penetrate entities is still very useful at this time.

However, as the information continued to be determined and passed to the outside rescuers through Charlotte's dream support, Miss Valkyrie discovered a problem——

*******

"Our rescue force is not enough!"

Serei Booth was directing his team to carry out rescue operations while sighing at Dr. Briana, whom he nicknamed "Small Bones."

——Well, it may be a bit strange to give your girlfriend such a nickname, but who knows that Dr. Brianna is a doctor of anthropology and is best at inferring many things through skeletal examination?

When Sere Booth first met Dr. Briana, the other person was examining the remains of an ancient man, so he gave him such a nickname out of humor.

As a result, after that, "Xiaogu" first became his partner, and later became his girlfriend...

Some time ago, as an FBI field agent, Sere had a rare opportunity to take the annual leave he had accumulated for several years, so he made an appointment with "Xiao Gu" to prepare for a two-person trip——

The two's original plan was to spend a few days in New York and then go on vacation to a private island in the Caribbean.

——Sere used his connections to borrow this small island from a cousin of his with whom he had little contact.

——Speaking of which, Sere’s cousin named Charlotte is also a capable person. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" that was particularly popular some time ago was filmed by the other party.

When Sere told "Xiaogu" the news at first, Xiaogu still didn't believe it.

However, as a major Hollywood director, Charlotte Booth is also a public figure after all, and he has many photos and video materials circulated outside.

——"Xiaogu", no, it should be said that Dr. Brianna used her superb ability as an anthropologist to compare the facial features of Sere and the other party, and finally believed that there was indeed a blood relationship between the two...

*******

Of course, at this critical moment, those things no longer matter.

Even as an FBI front-line agent who often handles various crises, Sere Booth never thought that the collapse of the Twin Towers, being attacked and then collapsed, could actually happen in reality.

When something like this happened, Sere's vacation was naturally ruined.

Whether it is his own sense of responsibility or his identity as an FBI, he is destined to not just sit idly by at this time——

Sere directly led a team of FBI based in New York to participate in the rescue work.

Although "Xiao Gu" is not a professional doctor, her rich knowledge with a doctorate in anthropology still gives her good first aid skills - so she also participated.

"I have participated in earthquake rescue in Honduras before. How to find victims who can be saved in the shortest time is the most important thing!"

Before arriving at the scene of the incident, "Xiao Gu" was still imparting her experience to fellow FBI agents. However, after arriving at the scene, she was completely silent.

"this……"

As an FBI agent, Sere suddenly felt a guilty sense of dereliction of duty.

However, when everyone is busy saving people, this is actually not a big deal.

Moreover, Sere suddenly discovered that his intuition was terrifyingly accurate.

——Although he occasionally relied on intuition to handle cases before, he never thought that he could also rely on intuition to save people.

However, this time, wherever he thought there were victims, he would definitely find victims, and they were all the ones who had time to save them.

"Maybe God lends my hand to save everyone!"

As a believer, Sere couldn't help but have such thoughts.

——Of course, he wouldn't say it without the sense of humor. After all, as his girlfriend's "little bone", he can be a complete atheist...

However, even though Sere now has divine intuition, the insufficient number of rescuers is still a serious problem.

In particular, some seriously injured people were buried deep in the ruins. Even if their locations could be determined in large numbers, it would be very difficult to rescue them in today's environment.

"I can only hope they can hold on longer!"

Cerebus prayed in his heart.
