Upon learning of the unexpected situation, Han Fei held his phone and remained speechless for quite some time.
The middle-aged man, seeing Han Fei's lack of response on the other end of the line, immediately asked, "Han, are you there?"
"I'm here, I need to think," Han Fei responded with a hint of exhaustion.
His mind was now in complete disarray.
Originally, Xu Mo's flight was scheduled to land at Hang City's Xiaoshan Airport in half an hour.
In other words, when Xu Mo arrived at the airport, he would be apprehended by the local police in Hang City.
This marked the end of this phase of the program.
Who could have predicted this turn of events?
A sudden heavy downpour, really?
This disrupted all the plans and rendered the existing arrangements useless.
Han Fei quickly pondered the situation and prepared to employ a familiar strategy.
"Here's what we'll do... Wang, I remember that before a plane changes its landing destination, it needs to communicate with the control tower. Please find out from the Xiaoshan control tower which nearby airport Xu Mo's flight is preparing to land at. I will think of a way to intercept him before his plane lands."
Although the sudden severe weather disrupted Han Fei's plans, he devised a new strategy.
After all, Xu Mo's plane would eventually land, whether it be at Xiaoshan Airport or another airport.
As long as he could find out in advance where Xu Mo's plane would land, he would have time to make preparations.
He had plenty of friends who were part of the same system, both in Hang City and elsewhere.
They were in Hang City, as well as other places!
From Han Fei's perspective, as long as he could obtain the information beforehand, Xu Mo wouldn't be able to escape his grasp!
"Okay, I'll find someone to inquire," the middle-aged man said.
"That's settled then, thank you," Han Fei replied.
...
After hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man immediately called one of the officers he had dispatched.
As soon as the call connected, he went straight to the point.
"Go to the control tower and ask which nearby airport Xu Mo's flight is preparing to land at. Go now and let me know once you have the information."
"Alright, Director Wang, I'll go right away," the officer immediately agreed.
The officer found the control tower and inquired about whether Xu Mo's flight had been diverted.
After checking, the control tower discovered that all the other planes had already reported their diversions to the tower.
Only Xu Mo's flight had not reported to the tower.
Initially, the officer thought Xu Mo's flight hadn't had time to report.
So he decided to wait.
He planned to wait until he knew which airport Xu Mo's flight had been diverted to and then immediately report this information to Director Wang.
...
On the plane.
The control tower had just informed them through the onboard communication channel about the sudden thunderstorm in Hang City.
They were told that the thunderstorm had severely affected the plane's ability to land safely, so for safety reasons, they were to land at another airport.
Wang Li glanced over at the empty seat of the captain.
Moments ago, Xu Mo had gone to the restroom.
There was a co-pilot and a captain on the plane.
The co-pilot had no decision-making authority.
All issues encountered during the flight required the captain to make various decisions.
Such as the decision to land at a different airport.
Wang Li was well aware that flying in thunderstorm weather could be turbulent and could damage the aircraft's structure. The accompanying lightning from the thunderstorm could also cause failures in the onboard electrical equipment, which would be fatal for the aircraft.
Continuing to Hang City under these circumstances was definitely not the best option.
Instead, they needed to divert and land at a different airport.
But... the captain was not present!
As a co-pilot, Wang Li couldn't make decisions on behalf of the captain.
However, fortunately, there was still some time before the aircraft reached Hang City.
They could wait a few more minutes for Xu Mo to return and let him make the decision.
...
Ten minutes later, Xu Mo returned.
Wang Li immediately informed Xu Mo about the situation.
"Idol, the tower just sent a notification that there's a sudden thunderstorm in Hang City. Where do you think we should divert and land?"
What he didn't notice was that the thunderstorm had already stopped.
The dark clouds had dispersed.
At this moment, Hang City was cloudless for miles.
Under these conditions, the aircraft could certainly continue to land.
As long as it was safe to do so.
Aircraft generally wouldn't choose to change their destination unless it was necessary.
After all, the passengers wouldn't be willing to do so.
"I know," Xu Mo said. "According to the forecast, the rain has already stopped. The dark clouds above Hang City have dispersed. Let's stick to the original plan and land in Hang City."
"But what if it rains again?" Wang Li still had some concerns.
Xu Mo shook his head.
"It's fine. The dark clouds have dispersed. How could it rain again? Even if it does, it would be just a light rain that won't affect the landing."
Pausing for a moment, Xu Mo continued.
"And now the weather has already improved. If we were to land at another airport, the passengers would probably cause a commotion. Rest assured, considering the current weather conditions, landing safely shouldn't be a problem."
Seeing Xu Mo, an experienced captain, saying this, Wang Li didn't say anything further.
Instead, he nodded and said, "Alright then, let's go to Hang City."
What Wang Li didn't notice was the smile that appeared on Xu Mo's face.
For Xu Mo, this weather was a great help.
...
Airport.
"When will our flight take off? The rain has already stopped, hasn't it?"
"I understand the delay due to the thunderstorm, but now that the rain has stopped, why haven't we received any updates? We have things to do."
"I have a business trip to attend. Can this plane fly today? Can you give us a definite answer?"
"That's right! The rain has stopped, the dark clouds have cleared, and it won't rain in the short term. When will the flights resume?"
Many people were in a hurry.
Moreover, now that the rain had stopped, but there was still no announcement from the airport, everyone was getting anxious.
The entire airport was in chaos.
Ten police officers sent by the Hang City police.
Except for one who went to the control tower to inquire about the information.
The views of the remaining nine officers were completely blocked by the bustling crowd of passengers.
Moreover, in this noisy environment.
Their earpieces were ineffective.
It was almost predictable that this operation would be extremely difficult.
After waiting for twenty minutes without receiving any news about Xu Mo's flight being redirected, the police officer who went to the control tower decided to call Director Wang.
"Director Wang, the control tower still hasn't received any report from Xu Mo's aircraft requesting a diversion. There are only ten minutes left until the aircraft lands."
Glancing at the bright sun outside the window, he continued, "Moreover, the weather is perfect right now. I have a feeling that Xu Mo's plane won't divert and is highly likely to land in Xiaoshan."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man on the other end of the phone immediately smiled.
"Isn't that a good thing? We only have ten minutes left, and according to our previous arrangements, we must apprehend Xu Mo! Alright, I won't take up any more of your time. Go and carry out the mission!"
After finishing his words, he hung up the phone and called Han Fei.
"Old Han, I have good news! The thunderstorm has stopped, hahaha. Xu Mo's flight didn't report any diversion to the control tower, so it's very likely that it will still land in Hang City. I have already instructed my subordinates to continue with the previous arrangements to intercept Xu Mo. Don't worry, he won't be able to escape!"
Little did they know, the ten police officers they had deployed...
Had their line of sight severely obstructed.
It seemed that capturing Xu Mo would be quite challenging.
And...
Xu Mo had already prepared a contingency plan early on.
Now the airport was in complete chaos, which would only work in his favor.
Upon learning of the unexpected situation, Han Fei held his phone and remained speechless for quite some time.
