The wounded are flown to a secret air field. Among those met by U.S. pilot Nick Stanton are a beautiful Red Cross nurse, Ann Richards, and her traveling companion, Madame Wu, who is on a secret diplomatic mission. There is also Countess Olga, who is caught spying. Nick and his co-pilot, Captain Po, try to fly them out, but the plane needs to make an emergency landing in a jungle. Olga is killed. Stanton learns that the spy was trying to get top-secret information to her superior. Another of the passengers, Rev. Van der Linden, goes missing, but returns with food from a monastery. The reverend leads everyone on a long hike to the monastery, only to reveal there that he is a Nazi collaborator working with the Japanese. He demands to know where Olga is, not knowing she is dead. Pasavy betrays the others, but is coldly shot. It is up to Nick to kill the Nazi and get Ann, Madame Wu and Po to safety. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Night Plane from Chungking」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
