The tour guide was a little surprised and asked, "Why didn't you go to the toilet before entering the elevator? Now the elevator door is closed. It's really unreasonable for you to ask this!"

"Uh, I'm afraid that won't work. This elevator won't stop until it reaches the top. You may have to wait a few dozen seconds."

"Really? That's great." Peter Parker laughed awkwardly, his back already soaked with sweat. Now it all depended on when this time bomb would explode. If they were lucky, they might not be in too much danger. If they were unlucky, they might be trapped in the elevator.

But sometimes you can't always rely on luck! Thinking of this, Peter Parker decisively called Ling Ge, "Hello, sir, where are you now?"

"I just arrived at the Washington Monument. I have to admit that this is the tallest building I have ever seen. It's just that the color is a bit too monotonous. It looks like an obelisk."

"That's good. Don't leave now!" Peter Parker said this and hung up the phone. He immediately felt that most of the pressure on him was relieved.

"It's inexplicable. Why can't I leave?" Ling Ge said puzzledly, looking at Michelle who was reading a book on the bench, "Is Peter Parker always so noisy?"

"Occasionally." Michelle smiled, "I think he might have something he wants to talk to you about in person!"

"Well, it's not impossible."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud noise came from the top of the monument, and even a clearly visible crack appeared at the top of the building. Countless sand and gravel fell from the top, raising clouds of dust.

Ling Ge was stunned for a moment. As smart as he was, he quickly understood why Peter Parker said that. He thought that the naughty kid had reformed and was going to start a new life. It turned out that he was in trouble and wanted to ask me for help!

"Damn it! Can't you just think of me when something good happens?" Ling Ge complained in his heart, but he really couldn't just ignore this shit.

"What should I do? My friends are all up there?" Michelle said worriedly.

Ling Ge picked up his phone and called Peter Parker, "Tell me honestly, what's going on there?"

"Um, for some reason there was a big hole in the elevator ceiling, as if it had been burned by high temperature."

Hearing this, Ling Ge immediately understood that the situation was very bad, but no one was injured.

And the words "I don't know why" should be reminding him that the matter is slightly related to him, but no one knows about it, which is a blessing in disguise.

"How are you doing? Tell me about the elevator's status."

Peter Parker looked at the situation in the elevator and said, "I'll put my phone on speaker, you can listen to it yourself!"

"What's your attitude?" Ling Ge cursed inwardly, then listened to what was happening inside.

“Oh, we’re going to die here.

We’re fucked.”

"Oh my god, how pessimistic are you!"

"Sir, this is on speakerphone, we can all hear what you say." Peter Parker reminded, because everyone in the elevator was now looking at him, making him inexplicably nervous.

"Who are you talking to?" asked Flash. He really couldn't understand why Peter Parker still had the mind to make a phone call at this critical moment.

"Well, an expert, he will tell us what we should do." Peter Parker said angrily.

"I know everyone is worried, but our security system is working and we are safe here," said the tour guide, which was a shot in the arm for everyone.

"Very safe? You're being too confident! From the outside, the top of the Washington Monument is about to crack.

If you want to be safe, don't move around, especially those who weigh more than 200 kilograms. "Ling Ge said bluntly. It's not that he doesn't give the tour guide face. The situation is urgent and the people in the elevator must have a sense of crisis. If they really feel safe and move around randomly, it might be tragic.

410. Rescue Operation, On-site Command by “Experts”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Ned who was clinging to the elevator. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was quite clear: "Just try and see if you dare to move."

Ned suddenly felt that the world was full of malice towards him, and he wanted to be tough! But he was indeed over 200 pounds, and it was not tenable. Besides, the other side had more people and power, and even his good friend Peter Parker did not support him now, so he knew the situation and followed his heart.

"I promise I won't move." After he said this, the gazes that made him feel uneasy moved away from him.

"What should we do?" asked the teacher leading the team, Harrington. He had no choice but to care about the safety of his life and the lives of his students.

"The staff will be here soon, all you have to do is stay calm.

In addition, during the rescue process, you must be careful not to make too much noise, otherwise this dilapidated elevator may fall from the top floor prematurely.

I happen to be right under the Washington Monument, and I will try to provide you with assistance, that's all." Ling Ge said and hung up the phone.

In the elevator, Flash looked at Peter Parker with a hint of suspicion in his eyes, "Why do I always feel that this expert is a little unreliable!"

"Flash, he's right. This is the best thing we can do while waiting for rescue." Harrington said a little annoyed, very dissatisfied with Flash's attitude.

...

At the bottom of the Washington Monument, Michelle looked at Ling Ge with a puzzled look, "What are you going to do? This monument has fifty flights of stairs, nearly 170 meters, and the elevator is broken. By the time you run up to save people, it will be too late."

“I didn’t say I was there, and besides, this kind of physical work isn’t suitable for me.

Come with me first, there are too many people here and it's a bit inconvenient." Ling Ge said meaningfully, and took Michelle back dozens of meters, then took out a large box out of thin air, "Don't ask where this thing came from, it's just magic."

"Why don't you just tell me directly? Why are you being so secretive?

What's in it?" Michelle asked.

"Of course it's what we rely on to rescue them." Ling Ge said as he opened the box, which was filled with small canned machines of various colors. It was estimated that there were at least two hundred of them. These were Ling Ge's collection in recent years. He didn't expect to use them today.

"What are you looking at? Why don't you come over and help?

The more they open, the safer they are.”

"Ah!" Michelle came to her senses. Although she didn't know what these cans were for, she had to give it a try for the safety of her classmates.

So, a group of people gathered under the Washington Monument to watch the fun, while Lingge and Michelle were busy opening cans behind the crowd, having a lot of fun.

"What's the use of this thing?" Michelle picked up a black can with a gorilla pattern on it and opened it. The mechanical can was transformed in her hand and a small mechanical gorilla fell to the ground. She opened her mouth wide and stood there in a daze.

"Don't just stand there. If you want to save them, you need to open at least 20 cans of this type." Ling Ge looked at Michelle and explained, "The gorilla can robot can lift 100 kilograms. There are at least seven people in the elevator, plus the weight of the elevator itself, the weight of 20 cans should be enough."

"But how do you get these things up there?" Michelle asked and then stopped talking, because the mechanical gorilla had already demonstrated its flying ability in front of her and then landed in her hands.

“Not only those with wings can fly, doesn’t Iron Man fly with thrusters?

Remember! After you've opened the gorilla cans, open the ones with octopus patterns. This can is the last line of defense. I should have dozens of them in stock. Just open them all." Ling Ge reminded her, and then opened an octopus mechanical can in front of her, which was also a demonstration for her.

"Got it." Michelle said quickly without stopping her hands.

Two minutes later, the two men were surrounded by a pile of opened cans, a total of sixty.

"I'm so tired. Can't you make one that can be opened all at once?" Michelle complained.

"You think I don't want to? But I get what I pay for. I can only open them one by one. Otherwise, why do you think I only prepared so little?"

"Then you wouldn't let me do this alone!

There were 60 mechanical cans, and I opened 59 of them by myself. Don't you think it's a bit too much for a grown man like you to ask a female student to do this?"

"That's wrong, those above are your classmates, not mine.

I provide the cans and you provide the labor, it's reasonable!" Ling Ge said confidently.

Faced with such a shameless temporary teammate, Michelle didn't say anything, but just shook her head to express her dissatisfaction.

"What now? It's time to let these little guys go and rescue people!"

"Almost." Ling Ge said with a smile.

The next second, more than sixty mechanical cans flew up to the Washington Monument in a group, but they did not enter through the main gate. Instead, they flew to the bottom of the tip of the monument, where there were several glass windows, which served as a shortcut.

However, this glass is one-inch thick bulletproof glass, which is not so easy to break through. It requires the mechanical gorilla to hammer it up again and again.

"Hey, Peter, I've sent reinforcements over. They're some cute mechanical animals. They're now attacking the bulletproof glass of the monument. They'll be there soon. Don't be nervous when you see them!"

"We heard you, thank you very much, sir," Harrington said gratefully.

While the gorilla was conquering the bulletproof glass, staff also arrived. They went to the top of the elevator, removed the burned ceiling, and opened an emergency escape window.

However, judging from his size, the fat man Ned was treated differently.

Fortunately, the elevator is now located at the top of the monument, so it is relatively easy to open this window. If it gets stuck halfway, it would be troublesome and it would take a lot of time just to find someone.

The two staff members first pulled up the tour guide, who was also their colleague. The elevator shook and everyone's heart was lifted again.

"Everyone, be careful and move gently, otherwise your situation will become even more dangerous." Ling Ge reminded over the phone.

"Who's next?" asked Flash, looking towards the exit with eager eyes.

"I suggest you stay still and wait a minute or two at most so I can make sure you're all safe."

"What if the elevator falls down within one or two minutes?

I still suggest that everyone go out one by one.”

"Oh! Then it's up to you to decide.

But I would like to remind you that it may take more than half a minute for each of you to go up, and the people who leave will be safe, but the people in the elevator will be in greater danger. "

Everyone looked at each other. They all understood what Ling Ge meant. The elevator would shake as they went up. The more times it shook, the more dangerous it would be. They couldn't even say for sure whether the next time the elevator shook, they would be taken down with it.

"I think we should wait a while! What do you think?" Harrington asked, and then everyone turned their eyes to Flash, who was the only one who disagreed.

"I agree." Flash said gritting his teeth. Although he was more inclined to escape from that window, he gave up the idea after hearing this.

Not to mention the danger of going up there, if someone is injured or killed because of him, he will feel guilty for the rest of his life.

It's just two minutes, isn't it? He can wait.

"This is the best decision you have ever made in your life." Ling Ge said with a smile. Although this child likes to show off, he still has a clear sense of right and wrong when it comes to major issues.

"Bang!" More than a minute later, the sound of glass breaking came from above, and some debris fell into the elevator, but no one was afraid but instead breathed a sigh of relief.

If the bulletproof glass is broken, it means the machine to rescue them has arrived.

Twenty gorilla robots flew to the four corners of the elevator in turn and used their mechanical arms to firmly fix the four sides, thus stabilizing the elevator.

"Huh! Those apes are here. Can we go up now?" said Flush. His choice was correct and he felt a lot more relieved.

"Almost, but I suggest you wait a little longer."

"why?"

"In order not to waste my efforts," Michelle said angrily, "In addition to the gorilla, I also got forty canned octopuses. The effect is definitely much better than your human ladder."

"Octopus? Canned food?" These four words flashed through everyone's mind, and they didn't understand what they meant. However, Ned seemed to be thinking about it, after all, he had seen the locust machine.

After a while, one octopus robot after another flew into the elevator. Their legs connected to each other, forming a simple but extremely stable staircase.

"Isn't this amazing? These technologies are enough to bring about huge changes in the way people live.

Peter, this is an amazing person you know!" Harrington praised.

"Huh? Yeah, I think so too." Peter Parker said angrily. He had no idea that Ling Ge had these powerful props, otherwise he would definitely ask for them, no, borrow a batch of them. Then it would be much easier for him to solve cases and arrest people.

"Hey, guys, I think you should learn from Flush. Look at him, this is what it means to be a gentleman and not stand under a dangerous wall."

Ling Ge's voice was heard, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a green locust machine landed on Ned's shoulder, its eyes flashing.

When Ned saw the surprised looks of the crowd, he suddenly felt like he was standing up, as if he was standing on the shoulders of a giant. Well, he was a giant.

And Flush walked out of the elevator quickly, stepped on the road paved by the octopus machine, and came to the top of the monument, feeling the long-lost sense of security.

411. Can this be called interrogation if you can’t stop thinking about it?

Walking on the road paved by the octopus machine, Harrington easily led the students out of the shaky elevator.

"Peter, please be sure to introduce this gentleman to me. I must thank him in person." Harrington watched the machines fly away from the window excitedly, his gratitude beyond words.

"Um, teacher, actually you just met him a few days ago. He was the one who asked me to participate in the decathlon." Peter Parker said somewhat embarrassedly.

It's not possible not to explain it clearly! This matter is too easy to be exposed.

"I was wondering why I felt that the so-called expert was a little unreliable." Flash said sarcastically, then he remembered that he had just been saved by the other party, and hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. I just felt that Peter Parker couldn't possibly know any expert."

Peter Parker couldn't help himself when he heard this, although his family background and connections were far inferior to those of the rich second generation Flash, it was too much to look down on even his social circle.

"Mr. Ling Ge has much more experience than you think. I only met him during the Stark internship program. By the way, Mr. Stark is very respectful to him."

"It's this internship project again. How long are you going to keep blowing it?"

"I..."

"Okay, stop arguing, you two. We just escaped! We all need to calm down." Harrington advised with a wry smile, and then impatiently led all the students downstairs, because the crack above their heads was clearly visible and there was no guarantee of 100% safety here.

More than twenty minutes later, the group walked out of the Washington Monument, where Michelle was anxiously waiting for them. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw everyone come out.

"Congratulations, everyone, for surviving the disaster." Michelle said half-jokingly.

"Let's talk about this later! Where is our benefactor?" Harrington asked. Everyone kept looking around, trying to find the unfamiliar figure.

"Don't mention it. The guy said he didn't like being watched by people. After making sure you were safe, he left."
