Chapter 27 Round 10 Bomb Defusing

How long has this highway been without major incidents?

Liu Xing can't remember anymore.

As an employee of Hongjing Expressway Group, he started working here as soon as he graduated. Here, he is used to seeing traffic jams, crashes, overturns, and a series of major accidents.

But a time bomb?

That's really new stuff.

But just five minutes ago, in the parking lot of Langchuan Rest Station on Hongjing Expressway, a time bomb strapped to the bus driver was found.

It is said that the numbers on the bomb are still flickering and jumping, which means that time is passing by every minute and every second, and the staff in the whole hall are terrified, as if the debris splashed by the bomb hundreds of kilometers away will also hurt them.

He stood in front of the monitoring station and didn't move, not because he didn't want to leave this terrifying place, but because someone was looking at him with an extremely calm look, making him unable to move.

"Liuhang, right, how many years have you been working on the highway?"

"Six years."

"Then you should be familiar with the emergency evacuation procedure, right?"

When Liu Xing saw the man in front of him holding the microphone, he didn't know why the person he looked down upon before suddenly became another person.

The policeman's eyes were deep and beautiful, but the reason he couldn't move his feet was because he saw trust in those eyes, which made him involuntarily nod his head.

"Arrange the staff to empty the rest station in an orderly manner, and do not leak the news of the time bomb to prevent panic."

After Xing Conglian finished speaking, he released the held microphone and continued to speak to the other end of the phone: "Hello, master, I am the captain of the Criminal Police Brigade in Hongjing City. My name is Xing Conglian. Can you tell me, there are a total of how many people?"

"Just one person!" the security guard asked anxiously, "When can we leave, the bomb will explode in 29 minutes! When will your police officers come over!"

Hearing this, everyone who learned the inside story was shocked. There were 26 children and 2 leading teachers in the car. Where did those people go!

Xing Cong pressed Lin Chen's hand continuously and continued: "I need to trouble you to take out your mobile phone now and take two pictures of the scene for me." He paused, looked at the security guard on the screen and said, "The first one , I hope you can aim at the time bomb on the driver in the car, and take the bomb structure as clearly as possible; for the second photo, please aim at the compartment and shoot the specific environment inside the car."

Soon, there was a response from the other end of the phone: "It's done, I took a lot of pictures!"

"Do you have WeChat, please send it to me." Xing Conglian winked at the dynasty, and the tech house quickly opened the WeChat interface on the computer, ready to receive photos.

"No, don't open the door." Someone on the other end of the phone had a new proposal, and Xing Conglian increased the volume to stop the other party.

"29 minutes? Could it be that there is a lead from the time bomb to the lock, and the timer starts at the moment when the door is opened?" Wang Chao waited anxiously for the photo, seeing that Xing Conglian was still talking to the phone, he asked in a low voice Lin Chen.

"I'm afraid that's the case. Jiang Zhe's words are right. He wants to attract attention, so it is far better to blow up the bus in the parking lot than to put a time bomb." Lin Chen looked at the two mobile phones he had already commandeered. , the captain of the criminal police who was still on the phone, continued: "But he has to ensure that when we find the car, the car has not exploded, so it is the easiest and most direct way to install a lead on the lock. Once someone opens the door, the time The countdown starts."

"What about the kids, where are the kids?"

"26 children, it's too conspicuous, he wouldn't be stupid enough to hide the children in the rest stop. So the biggest possibility is that they got off the bus on the way from Mei Village to Langchuan." Lin Chen leaned slightly and said to the dynasty, "Can you adjust the speed monitoring to check this car?"

"Achen, I have to give you some popular science. Most of the surveillance cameras on the highway are used to calculate the traffic flow and shoot illegal vehicles. Unless the bus happened to be caught illegally parked, the system will extract its license plate information. Filter it out, otherwise it will take a lot of time and manpower to track him, which is what we lack the most..."

"I asked you if you can, or not?" Lin Chen looked at the dynasty, touched the other's head, and said very gently.

Wang Chao was shocked and hurriedly said: "Theoretically, we can still use OCR technology, that is, the technology of scanning paper documents and recognizing them as text, to identify all the surveillance from Mei Village to Langchuan within these four hours. Take the photo, then retrieve the license plate of the bus, and then generate the specific driving trajectory of the bus, but..." Dynasty hesitated.

Lin Chen looked into Wang Chao's eyes and seemed to be waiting for him to say the next thing.

Dynasty could only bite the bullet: "However, the module for filtering high-speed surveillance photos does not have embedded OCR technology..."

"so?"

"So... I'm going to upgrade the system a little..." Wang Chao swallowed, looking at the leader and chairman of the high-speed monitoring hall, and said this.

"What are you kidding, can you afford this system if something goes wrong!"

"I don't need to bear it, I'll bear it." Xing Conglian pressed the chairman's shoulder and said to the dynasty, "Let's start."

The tech house seemed to have been given a booster, took a deep breath, and said, "Alright, I just killed two Trojan horses for this system and nothing would happen, and then I turned on the No. 2 machine for you guys. You can look at the photos, and finally, the girl playing poker at table 35, can you leave a phone number?"

Suddenly, the entire monitoring hall was silent except for the hiss of electricity and heating.

Finally, Lin Chen sighed and asked Xing Conglian, "Where did you find it?"

"He owes me a little money."

"That must be a lot."

"really."

At the same time, a piece of color quickly came through the network.

The crowd swarmed, and the technician of Unit 2 was a little confused.

In the photo, only the driver was tied in the cab. In addition, the inside of the bus was empty. The 26 children and 2 teachers who were supposed to be in the seats seemed to disappear out of thin air.

In the following photos, it can be clearly seen that the driver is struggling while tied to the cab, and an improvised time bomb is tied to the driver.

Above the detonator, the lines of fire were exposed and intertwined, like the terrifying blood vessels of the patient.

At this time, there are only 27 minutes left in the countdown on the detonation device.

"Hurry up and send the bomb disposal experts!" Some of the staff shouted loudly, Xing Conglian leaned over to look at the screen, constantly adjusting the position and angle of the photos, but did not respond.

"The place where the car was parked is next to the gas station. In case of an explosion, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"Captain Xing, you must think of a way." Yang Dianfeng, who had been standing near Xing Conglian, finally spoke up.

"It's an isolated island." Lin Chen glanced at the silent police captain, and said slowly, "All the bomb disposal experts are in the urban area. Even if we clear the driveway, they will not arrive at the rest stop in an hour."

"Then what to do!" Yang Dianfeng said again: "Then find someone to defuse the bomb at the scene. I've seen the movie. Can't you tell the people over there which thread to cut?"

"Real bomb disposal is very complicated." Lin Chen looked at the time bomb on the screen and said, "Untrained personnel to defuse the bomb is no different from suicide."

"Then what do we do!" The tech nerd who was writing the code had his hands flying, but he couldn't help but speak.

"Continue to try your luck." Xing Conglian suddenly turned his head and said to the dynasty, "Check the rest station staff, nearby traffic police, or security guards to see if anyone has ever been a soldier!"

Lin Chen suddenly grabbed Xing Conglian and said, "How sure are you?"

Seeing Lin Chen pulling himself and not speaking, Xing Conglian seemed to see a lot of words in his eyes.

He is saying, look for civilians to take the risk to defuse the bomb. If you fail, you will definitely bear legal responsibility, so don't take risks and don't take chances.

"The structure of this time bomb is not complicated. It only needs to dismantle the ignition device between the detonator and the detonator. Therefore, I need a person with a very stable hand and a pressure to defuse the bomb."

Lin Chen was silent for a moment, as if he was persuaded again. He raised his head and stared at the huge LED screen in front of him. The left half of the screen had been switched to live monitoring by Dynasty.

"You need a person with a very good psychological quality, which means that he has a strong ability to withstand pressure, can obey traffic rules even in chaos, keep the vehicle moving in a straight line, and even give way to the traffic jam..." Lin Chen's eyes glanced quicklywriting

"Head, our luck doesn't seem to be very good. It seems that there are no veterans among all the staff... The security guards are all temporary workers, and I can't transfer the information... The traffic police system is not connected to us, or should I hack in?"

"No need." Lin Chen suddenly said. On the big screen, a white police car was driving into the rest stop against the flow of traffic. After that car, more than a dozen large or small news interview cars followed.

The white police car is as efficient as ever. It quickly drove into the parking space. A young man in a police uniform opened the door and walked out.

Looking at the person on the screen, Lin Chen said lightly, "Huang Ze was born in the special forces, I'm pretty sure that he has received professional bomb disposal training."
