Chapter 1350 Invitation and Reminder

When McCall learned that the death of the Secret Service agent had caused changes within the LAPD, he didn't know for a moment whether he should be happy or sad.

But aside from his own senses, at least the involvement of the LAPD would be a great help in solving Pushkin's problem.

So he decisively chose to put aside his personal feelings for the time being and began to negotiate terms with the LAPD.

"I want people from the SWAT team to take charge of the escort."

As soon as McCall opened his mouth, he said he wanted the trump card within the LAPD.

SWAT is the name of the LAPD's internal anti-terrorism task force. This is a specially formed sharp knife team within the Luojishan Police Station. It is responsible for overcoming some difficult tasks.

Compared with ordinary police officers, the SWAT team has higher requirements for the selection of team members, and the review conditions are also higher.

Because of this, at this critical moment, McCall can only selectively trust the LAPD.

"Okay, we will arrange three SWAT teams for you. Each team has a total of five people. Are these enough people?"

Leaders within the LAPD did not reject McCall's request.

In fact, after the Pushkin incident, they were eager to carry out a big operation to show their means and reputation.

"I also have to choose the candidates for SWAT."

McCall added another condition.

"Of course no problem."

The leaders of the LAPD were not surprised by this. In fact, McCall's agreement to cooperate with them was a huge relief to them.

"Our bureau can prepare a helicopter for you. Do you want to take someone to take the helicopter directly to the desert prison?"

After the two parties negotiated the basic conditions, the LAPD leaders also thought of a simpler solution for McCall.

"No, to be honest, I don't think helicopter transportation is safe enough."

However, McCall did not hesitate to reject the proposal from the LAPD leadership.

America's freedom can be called fake in some aspects, such as squid and the like, but this definitely does not include airspace issues.

Luojishan is a super city in America. In addition to some government agencies, other private companies and individuals can own helicopters.

Coupled with the clichéd issue of America not being able to refrain from shooting, McCall knew very well that flying in a helicopter was not a safe option.

Especially now that Pushkin has promised a reward of 100 million US dollars, McCall does not dare to bet on whether these hot-headed people will appear.

"It shouldn't be the case. They want to save Pushkin. If they really bring down the helicopter, Pushkin himself will die."

Unlike McCall's cautiousness, the LAPD leader himself definitely doesn't know how to fly in a helicopter, so this guy's words inevitably sound like standing up will not hurt your waist.

"How can these guys be dazzled by promises that are impossible to realize? How can they expect that they have enough sense? Really sensible guys will not get involved in this matter at all."

McCall did not delve into the fact that LAPD leaders were gambling with their own lives and the lives of others that no one would attack the helicopter.

Instead, he explained to the other party.

"You mean, even if others save Pushkin, they won't be able to get the 100 million he promised?"

Upon hearing McCall's words, the LAPD leader seemed a little surprised.

"Of course, even if you think about such a thing, it's impossible for the other party to fulfill it, and we won't let him be rescued, right?"

At this moment, McCall took a deep look at the leader of the LAPD and looked at him with a stern expression.

"Of course, of course, I believe that under the supervision of Agent McCall, Pushkin will never escape."

The LAPD leaders didn't know whether they had a guilty conscience or felt that they couldn't help here. In short, after confirming the situation, they took the people away first.

Seeing people leaving, McCall suddenly felt very tired.

If he had no choice, how could he choose to cooperate with the LAPD.

After all, these guys have criminal records before, so it's not surprising that a few villains will pop up now.

However, without the intervention of the Secret Service, even if McCall was very confident in himself, he did not dare to say that he could guard Pushkin by himself.

Apart from anything else, if it weren't for the relationship with the LAPD, he would never have thought of imprisoning Pushkin in a desert prison this time.

So no matter how unhappy he was, McCall still had no choice but to compromise.

It's not like he didn't hear some unpleasant meanings in the words of the LAPD leader just now, but because he was asking for help, even if he heard it, he could only pretend not to hear it, and even find ways to dispel the other party's ideas.

.

"If it really doesn't work, I can only ask someone for help."

With a heavy heart, McCall went to the LAPD to select SWAT members to assist him.

But after selecting people, McCall found that instead of increasing his confidence, he became even more worried.

Because his previous guess was correct. Although SWAT is the elite within the LAPD, in McCall's view, these people are not that reliable.

He went to pick people today and went to the restaurant first in the morning. He originally wanted to have breakfast and observe the usual status of SWAT members.

As a result, he actually witnessed a fight in the restaurant.

Two members of the SWAT team dislike each other because they met in a bar last night and one of them snatched the woman the other was interested in.

Later, when selecting people, McCall found that the members of the SWAT team were too rigidly trained. Thinking of the dangers that might be encountered in this operation, McCall couldn't help but feel worried.

Then he couldn't help but want to find help from other aspects.

McCall's first thought was none other than Zhang Pin, who had appeared at the airport earlier and wanted to kill Pushkin.

"Just how to convince this guy."

McCall chose Zhang Pin, of course, because he was convinced by Zhang Pin's character of hating evil.

But if he knew, when Zhang Pin saw the news, he actually considered whether to rescue Pushkin and then kill him after getting the money.

He probably wouldn't necessarily think so.

Zhang Pin gave up the idea in the end mainly because he felt that Pushkin was not that stupid.

First of all, he suspected that the reward of 100 million US dollars promised by the other party was probably a boast. If he was really rescued, there was a high probability that the other party would choose to default on the payment.

And even if Pushkin would not default on his debt, the other party must have known his identity. If he was really rescued by Zhang Pin, the other party would not be so willing to give him money.

Sir Zhang was very interested in US$100 million, but he had just made a large sum of money from Pushkin, and because he was afraid of trouble, he finally chose to give up the profit.

"What's the benefit of asking me to help?"

McCall actually found Sir Zhang and wanted to invite him to participate in escorting Pushkin to the desert prison.

"benefit?"

But Zhang Pin's first question stopped McCall.

"You wanted to kill Pushkin before, was it for some benefit?"

McCall was a little puzzled, so he asked why Zhang Pin wanted to kill the other party at the airport.

"I killed him because I thought he was a bad person. What, do you agree now? Then I will kill him now."

Zhang Pin glanced at McCall strangely.

McCall: "Don't, don't, don't, killing people won't solve the problem."

McCall also wanted to persuade Zhang Pin.

"Nonsense, who said killing people can't solve the problem? Killing people is the fastest way to solve the problem."

Zhang Pin obviously didn't agree with McCall's words.

So many institutions and organizations, after someone discovers and raises a problem, they all invariably choose to solve the problem. The most fundamental reason is that they want to solve the problem quickly and simply.

Murder may not be able to change the direction of some historical laws in some grand narratives, but when it comes to solving fundamental problems, it is the simplest and easiest.

"For example, this time, I heard that the Secret Service seems to be launching an investigation against you. Aren't they planning to kill you?"

Zhang Pin said and looked at McCall.

It's not like he doesn't know anything.

In fact, when he was preparing to take action, he had already asked Warren to learn about McCall's situation.

The most fundamental reason why Zhang Pin gave up Pushkin to McCall so easily at the airport was because he discovered that McCall was involved in this matter just because he wanted to help.

Lily's thoughts.

Sir Zhang has always given great preferential treatment to people who are born to choose kindness.

Such people are a blessing to the world.

Although in many cases, what these people do seems silly to some utilitarians, even if they are bad people, they definitely hope that there are more such people in the world.

In particular, McCall is not the kind of person who wants to be a good person. He is very capable of action.

Sir Zhang appreciates this very much.

Because he himself is such a person.

Of course, maybe he is not as pure as McCall and is more utilitarian.
