1140: Chapter 1145: Parachuting 1140: Chapter 1145: Parachuting “Larry Bell lives on the top floor, and it’s almost certain he won’t leave there tonight since he has so much to deal with.
To kill Larry Bell, we must get to the top floor of the building, which is quite troubleso,”
Yang Yi paused, took a breath, and said, “We haven’t settled on a clear plan up to now, because it’s too difficult.
But since we’re going to make our move tonight, everyone, share your thoughts.”
Anton furrowed his brows, then looked towards Xiao Ran and said, “Shooting the target dead is out of the question, so the Queen is of no use.”
Xiao Ran raised her eyebrows and said in a stern voice, “It’s Blade Queen!”
Without hesitation, Anton said, “If we want to get to the top floor and kill Larry Bell, it can only be the two of us sneaking in after disguising ourselves.
But given Larry Bell’s security asures, no matter how we do it, we will leave traces, aning soone will notice sothing unusual.”
Yang Yi nodded and said, “Yes, it’s really difficult to assassinate soone inside the building without leaving any trace.
My idea is to lure Larry Bell out, and when there’s a chance, strike a fatal blow with a poison needle provided by Professor Gweil.”
Gweil, who was listening on the side, imdiately raised his hand and said, “There’s a problem, these toxins are water-based, aning it’s difficult to apply them to small objects.
Of course, so of the toxin can remain after application, but it would be difficult to kill the target with a long-range shot.
I will work on changing the form of the toxin in the future, but for now, it’s not possible.
As things stand, the best thod is injection, because the dosage is most precise and guarantees a quick death without leaving any trace.”
Yang Yi sighed and said, “Injection only, then we really need to close in for the assassination.”
Anton said indifferently, “We’ll do the close-in assassination.
Hmm, what do you think about going down from the rooftop?”
Yang Yi’s voice held a hint of surprise, “The rooftop?”
“Yes, the rooftop.
Larry Bell often travels by helicopter, and there is an elevator that goes directly to the rooftop.
There’s another elevator that goes straight to his residence.
We reach the rooftop, then from there enter the top floor and kill Larry Bell, it’s that simple.”
After contemplating for a mont, Yang Yi said in a heavy voice, “Show the photos of the rooftop again.”
Schultz imdiately placed the computer in front of Yang Yi and pulled up a series of images.
The photos were taken with a drone and were very clear, with key areas enlarged, making it possible to see every detail of the entire building’s rooftop clearly.
“Two elevators, one is exclusively for Larry Bell and the other is a public elevator that requires property managent’s permission to access from the first floor.
Larry Bell’s private elevator has a lock on it.”
With Anton’s explanation, Yang Yi looked at Bell’s private elevator.
It was evident that to enter the elevator, one had to unlock an electronic lock first.
The drone had captured and zood in on the type of electronic lock.
Yang Yi examined the lock and said, “This is a fingerprint lock that can also be opened with a code, but for soone like Larry Bell, entering a code seems too cumberso, so his main way of entering would likely be the fingerprint lock, but…”
Yang Yi lifted his head and said with an expression of frustration, “This kind of lock is very advanced, its internal chip records every instance of unlocking, whether it’s with a fingerprint or a code.
Moreover, although this lock is not uncrackable, it is certainly tough to hack.
You need special tools, or rather, a specific lock-cracking program, and it won’t be quick.
At the very least it would take ten minutes, even Hank would need at least ten minutes.”
Anton said helplessly, “Rich people also install these locks on their elevator doors, which is so annoying.
That’s why I hate the filthy rich, they are really hard to kill.”
Yang Yi continued, “There are only two access paths to the top floor, all elevators, this is tough…”
Xiao Ran voiced her surprise, “Are you guys missing sothing?”
Yang Yi looked at her and said, “What?”
“How are you going to get onto the rooftop?
At least you need to be able to get to the rooftop first before considering how to get down from the rooftop’s elevator, right?”
Yang Yi shrugged and said, “That’s simple, helicopter.”
Xiao Ran looked disdainful and said, “Idiots, do you dare to land a helicopter up there?
No matter what kind of helicopter it is, such rooftop helipads have automatic response systems, and you’re bound to leave information if you want to land.
You keep saying not to leave any trace, and yet you plan on landing a helicopter directly on the rooftop?”
Yang Yi started laughing and said, “Oh, that, civilian helicopters all have an automatic recognition system, and it can’t be turned off.
However, military helicopters don’t have this problem, their identification systems are entirely different from civilian ones.”
Xiao Ran said coldly, “You want to use a military helicopter?
Even if it won’t automatically identify itself, do you think there’s no chance of other people seeing a helicopter on the rooftop?”
Yang Yi looked at Anton, then said in a serious tone, “Old Monster and I have discussed this issue.
Yes, landing a helicopter directly on the rooftop will almost certainly leave traces, but we’re not planning to land on the rooftop.
We’re going to skydive.”
Xiao Ran was taken aback, then stood up, looking absolutely astonished, “Have you both lost your minds?
Do you know how complicated Manhattan’s weather conditions are?
You want to skydive from a helicopter?
That might be even crazier than rappelling.”
In the city, especially in areas with high-rise buildings, skydiving is basically a death-defying act, and the landing target is moreover just a rooftop, which is truly risking one’s life.
From below, a building’s rooftop seems very large, but from the air, the rooftop’s area is very small.
Most importantly, skydiving from a helicopter requires a certain altitude because there are height requirents from parachute deploynt to landing.
The landing spot is the top of a tall building, with strong winds, and especially the turbulent winds from urban areas affected by many buildings.
Once the parachute is deployed and caught by a strong gust from an unknown direction, landing on the rooftop becos very difficult.
It can be said the difficulty of parachuting onto a rooftop is more than ten tis greater than that of landing on solid ground.
If the jumpers do not reach the designated area, that’s still alright.
The worst-case scenario would be getting caught on sothing after deploying the parachute, with not enough height to continue downwards, and climbing back up basically being an impossibility.
Xiao Ran was very surprised because she felt Yang Yi and Anton were about to undertake a suicide mission, but Anton said in an indifferent tone, “High altitude, low opening (HALO) jump isn’t such a big problem.
If you are worried about the kid, I can go alone.”
