Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 270 The Final Liquidation (3)

Security at the Fox News building was quickly cleared by New Hope agents.

Soon, the elevator that Irina and Roy were in arrived at the 27th floor, and another elevator followed closely behind. The doors of the two elevators opened at almost the same time.

Four fully armed members of the Hellhound unit, each carrying an HK416 assault rifle, stepped out of the elevator first, followed closely by Irina and Roy.

Just then, a TV station staff member holding a coffee came out of the break room and froze on the spot when he saw the group of people in full protective gear.

Revolver R made a shushing gesture to the female staff member.

bang-

The ceramic coffee cup fell to the ground.

Hellhound member Q stepped forward and knocked the woman unconscious with the butt of his rifle.

On the way to the live broadcast room, anyone who shows their face will be stunned.

Irina handed the memory over to R.

boom--

Two members of Hellhound kicked open the studio door.

The two Fox News anchors, who were broadcasting the evening news live, were immediately stunned.

Everyone, including the director, lighting crew, and cameramen, looked towards the doorway after hearing the sound.

Fully armed bandits came into view.

They were all dumbfounded.

“Listen up, everyone! As long as you don’t resist or do anything stupid, I guarantee you’ll be fine,” T shouted.

"hands up!"

New Hope agents stepped forward and quickly brought the group under control.

Meanwhile, the live stream continues.

Americans watching the evening news heard the conversation between the two sides on TV, but before they could understand what was happening, the TV screen began to shake violently.

The shaking stopped, and two news anchors, dressed in suits and shorts, were dragged away from the camera by two thugs whose faces were covered.

The next moment, Irina, dressed in a burgundy business suit, appeared in the frame.

Roy, dressed in an NYPD uniform, and Mahone, dressed in a black suit, stood behind the camera, watching Irina.

New Hope agents took over the cameras and the control room.

Approximately five seconds later, a report came from the encrypted communication band:
"Dark Light Group 1 reports: The virus has taken effect and has successfully seized control of the broadcast satellite."

"Dark Light Team 2 reports that they have successfully breached the internal systems of various television stations, and all signals have been transferred to Fox News."

Revolver R gave Irina an OK sign.

At this very moment, the live broadcast signals from all major mainstream television stations across the United States were connected to the Fox News studio where Irina was located, and the satellite broadcast signal was also synchronized.

Irina's image appeared on large screens in the CBDs of major cities across the federal territory. Citizens stopped in their tracks and looked up at the screens, but no one knew what was going on.

The New Hope Special Agent Team installed high-definition cameras on the top of Tower A of the Twin Towers and transmitted video signals to the television station via a satellite antenna.

Inside the white house.

Norton didn't knock, but pushed open the door to Office Number 2.

Number 2, who was looking on with a headache, was stunned when Norton walked in without knocking:
"what happened to you?"

"Sir, please watch the television."

With that, Norton turned on the television.

Irina appeared on television.

"What's going on?" Number 2 stood up.

Norton shook his head:

"It seems that Irina has taken control of the TV station, and now it's being broadcast live all over the United States, no, the whole world."

"This……"

The cabinet members entered the office one after another, and everyone stood in front of the television, looking at Irina on the screen.

“What is she going to do?” Number 2 asked. Norton shook his head again.

at this time,

Irina on the television screen began to speak.

“American citizens, I am Irina Monica.”

“Now, I declare that the New Hope Organization will take over Manhattan.”

These words caused an uproar in the White House office.

Number 2 stared wide-eyed, his face showing disbelief.

"What...what is she saying???"

Norton: "She...she said New Hope has taken over Manhattan."

"Damn it, she really is a member of New Hope! Quick, notify the FBI, DHS, CIA, National Guard, NYPD, mobilize all available defense forces to Manhattan!!" Number 2 roared.

His words had barely faded when Irina's voice came through the television again:
"Switch screen!"

The scene then switches to an exterior view of Manhattan.

The camera is located on the top of Tower A of the Twin Towers.

The wide-angle lens is pointing towards the Brooklyn Bridge and the Third Avenue Bridge.

The next second, all the bridges connecting Manhattan to the Hudson River exploded violently, with flames shooting into the sky and steel bridge sections falling into the Hudson River, splashing up huge sprays of water.

Citizens on both sides of the bridge scattered and fled, screams echoing everywhere.

Traffic control measures saved the lives of those waiting to cross the bridge.

Number 2, who was watching TV, was stunned.

It's not just him.

Everyone in the cabinet present gaped in astonishment.

Several women even covered their mouths with their hands.

"What is Irina trying to do?"

The television screen switched back to Irina.

Irina said to the camera:
"Your Excellency, you should now know my true identity. I advise you not to act rashly, and especially not to send warplanes to try to destroy this building. I have nuclear weapons, one of which is very, very close to you..."

"To prove that what I say is true, I will show you the most beautiful fireworks of this century."

The camera then switches back to the rooftop of Building A.

The camera was pointed at the dark sea.

The next moment, a huge fireball shot into the sky 20 kilometers from the coastline, and the intense light from the nuclear explosion illuminated the entire city of New York.

The shockwave swept in along the sea level, shattering the windows of buildings on the shore instantly. The seawater receded rapidly, forming 10-meter-high waves that crashed against the breakwater, and a large amount of seawater rushed into the city.

Number 2's lips twitched incessantly.

He had indeed considered ordering fighter jets from the nearest air force base to scramble, but after witnessing the nuclear explosion off the coast of New York, he immediately abandoned the idea.

The camera switches back to the studio.

Irina raised her right wrist:

"The device on my wrist is called the anti-trigger detonation device. It detects my heart rate, and as soon as my heart stops beating, the nuclear bombs planted in Washington will be detonated immediately."

"Don't even think about escaping there. I have people in the Secret Service. If I find out you've left the White House, you'll understand what I mean."

Number 2 clutched his heart and took two steps back.

Irina's voice came from the television screen:

"Citizens, now I want to speak to you..."

"America has never had freedom. Everything is a lie. Information cocoons influence your perception. The so-called voting is all manipulated by those people."
