Chapter 432 Checking the Safe House
Zuo Zhong immediately retreated to the door, and carefully observed the main room. The room in front of him was about ten square meters, with a small wing room on the east and west sides, and the floor was covered with large tiles.

Since it is a booby trap, it is nothing more than several methods such as pulling, tripping, and pressing. It is enough to check one by one. The place where the trap is most likely to be placed is the ground, and other locations are too conspicuous.

He recalled the types of booby traps, then lay down on the ground, tilted his head close to the ground and looked into the house. At the same time, he turned on the flashlight for auxiliary lighting, wanting to see if there was a trip wire.

It turned out that the ground above was very clear, and there was nothing that could be used as a trip wire, unless the Japanese invented some kind of completely transparent substance, which could not exist at all.

In this era, only transparent plastic can achieve a similar effect①, but even transparent plastic is only transparent in name, and still has a clear color under the light.

He slowly frowned. This kind of open space is very suitable for setting trip traps, and pull traps are basically used on moving objects, such as doors and windows, and the ground is not suitable for such booby traps.

Is that a hair-pressing trap?

Zuo Zhong continued to lower his head and began to compare the heights of the tiles. It takes a certain amount of space to press the hair. If the spy really buried something under a certain tile, no matter how perfect the arrangement is, it will leave traces.

At this time, the sun was rising, and bunches of golden sunlight shot into the house through the window lattice. Under the reflection of the light, the dust flying in the sky was clearly visible, which greatly increased the difficulty of observation.

After a long time, he got up with an ugly face. The ground was very flat, at least he couldn't see any problems with the naked eye, and he couldn't crawl on the ground to check every inch. There was no time.

He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already 45:[-], and he hadn't even entered the door. If it dragged on, it would be the peak time of crowd flow. He couldn't wait until there were fewer pedestrians nearby before leaving.

Because once the operation against the mansion and Meng Ting starts, there will be various calls to the intelligence department. If he keeps not answering the calls, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of Dai Chunfeng and his subordinates.

A solution must be found as soon as possible.

His mind was running fast, and his eyes saw the well in the courtyard by accident, and a flash of inspiration flashed by. If the difference in height of the ground cannot be seen clearly with the naked eye, then use a reference object.

Zuo Zhong seemed to have thought of something, and gradually smiled, then got up and walked to the well to fetch a whole bucket of water, then took out his own pen, unscrewed the pen body and squeezed the ink into the bucket.

Soon, a bucket of clear water turned light blue. He found a ladle from the kitchen and splashed the water in the bucket into the house, repeating this process until the ground was completely wet with the blue liquid.

This kind of old-fashioned glazed tiles is very poor in hydrophilicity. After being splashed with so much water, the ground will quickly accumulate water. Due to gravity, water will flow from high places to low places. This is the way he thought of.

Just like the closed water test of later generations, using the water flow with coloring agent to determine the height of the terrain, he didn't believe that Tianfu could make the trap perfectly, and he could be a spy with this skill.

Besides, the trap needs to be inspected and replaced from time to time. Even if the gap is relatively small at the beginning, after such a long period of use, it will inevitably cause wear and tear, and the gap will only become bigger and bigger.

Zuo Zhong half squatted on the ground, staring wide-eyed at the water that was slowly fading, and finally found two tiles where the water accumulated quickly but disappeared quickly. Good guy, it turned out to be a double insurance.

One of the floor tiles is not far from the door. It is specially prepared for those who enter the door. I don't know the layout of the room. As long as you take two steps, it will turn into flesh and blood fireworks with a bang.

The other one is at the door of the bedroom, all the places that must be searched. Fortunately, they were arrested in the Central Hospital, otherwise they would have to pay a heavy price. These two traps are too insidious.

If Tianfu is not dead, he really wants to ask the other party, if there is such a big battle, is this guy not afraid of stepping on a trap, or will the other party temporarily dismantle the trap every time he comes here.

Yes, the safe house is more hidden than a personal residence, and it is not a big problem to collect items slower. As long as you can ensure the safety of yourself and your intelligence, it is worth spending a little more time.

"Let me see what's in there."

With a heavy left hand, he walked into the house carefully, and stopped beside the first tile. No matter what angle you looked at, it was just an ordinary floor tile, without any special features.

He lay down on the ground again, carefully groping the edges of the floor tiles with his fingers, looking for unusual places, and soon found that the corners of the floor tiles were a little loose, and he seemed to be able to lift them up with a little force.

But you can't do this. It's best not to act rashly before you have seen the situation inside and confirmed the specific trap type. The disposal methods of various booby traps are very different, and tampering is courting death.

Based on his understanding of Tianfu, this bastard is likely to choose a compound trap, that is, to use pulling, tripping, and pressing together. You must be careful when handling this floor tile.

Zuo Zhong raised the corner of the floor tile a few centimeters little by little, then slowly inserted the dagger into the gap as a support, finally turned on the flashlight, and looked inside the small crack with his eyes.

Seeing this made him break out in a cold sweat. There was a suitcase in the trap, and a landmine was placed on the suitcase, and the safety latch had been pulled out. The upper pressing rod was very close to the tiles.

As long as someone stepped on the floor tiles, the firing pin would activate the radium tube to detonate the dangerous goods. This is the standard army combat method, and it is rare for intelligence personnel to use such dangerous weapons in the city.

At the same time, he also understood why Tianfu chose such a large tile to lay the ground, because apart from installing booby traps, the trap was probably also a safe for the other party to store items.

This is reasonable. There are many secrets in the safe house that cannot be discovered by others, such as radio stations and intelligence. Putting these things in the trap will not only hide them, but also ensure that they will not fall into the hands of the enemy.

Once the booby trap explodes, it can not only destroy the enemies entering the safe house, but also destroy the items in the trap by the way, which can be regarded as another kind of death without leaving any evidence.

And this suitcase should be custom-made, not only the size is just right to fit into the trap, but the height of the suitcase, landmines, and tiles is almost the same as the height of the trap.

In addition, there is an iron hook on the back of the tile, on which a steel wire rope is hooked and extended into the suitcase. Needless to say, it is another booby trap. This room is a dangerous goods warehouse.

Zuo Zhong wiped the sweat from his brow, and put two fingers into the gap, trying to release the booby trap. The gap was too thin, and the pliers couldn't fit in at all, so he had to use his fingers to unlock the buckle.

He didn't dare to blink his eyes, staring at the trap, his fingers dexterously bypassed the landmine, and decisively clamped the wire rope. This step was not difficult, but the really difficult next step was to remove the rope.

At this time, the wire rope was already stretched very tightly, and the booby trap would be detonated if he was not careful. He was sure that the fuze of this booby trap must be very short. Once it was triggered, he would have no chance to escape.

one second.
three seconds
ten seconds
Zuo Zhong felt that the time had come, and he left the iron hook without hesitation, holding the steel wire rope, and then closed his eyes. After waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened, and the most dangerous booby trap was lifted.

The rest of the mines are easy to deal with, just remove the floor tiles above them. After all, there is no direct contact between the two, and the mines are in an unfired state, otherwise it would be a bit troublesome.

"call."

He gently pushed the floor tiles aside, and then let out a long breath. This kind of thing should be done by Gui Youguang, and it would be hard for Tianfu. Every time he collects something, he has to risk his life.

After resting for a minute, he quickly disarmed the trap under another floor tile. There were also two booby traps and a suitcase. The only difference was that the suitcase looked slightly larger.

What will be in the box.

After confirming that there was no problem under the box, Zuo Zhong lifted them out, and then checked the zipper again, for fear that Tianfu would play tricks on the box again, and the methods of these spies were too vicious.

Fortunately, Tianfu may think that the previous two traps are enough. Apart from a radio station and a bunch of weapons in the two boxes, there are only the two booby traps and a lot of banknotes from various countries.

Zuo Zhong made a general point. There are about [-] to [-] in foreign currencies such as US dollars and British pounds, and it is estimated to be more than [-] including Dayang. With the money he brought, the underground party should not be short of funds in the near future.

The radio station is a miniature radio station produced by the Japanese, with a lot of accessories, including three batteries, presumably it was prepared by the Tianfu for a long time of lurking, and now it all belongs to the underground party.

These things can't be bought with money, and the national government's management of electrical materials is getting stricter. Even the telecommunications department has to order Dai Chunfeng's handwriting to buy accessories. The small business of the telecommunications section chief stopped last year.

Lord Tianfu, you are really a good person.

Zuo Chong put on his gloves with a smile on his face and took an MP18 into his hand to look at it. It was a brand-new German product, and there were 5 of them in the box. The matching bullets were at least a thousand rounds, which was enough for use.

Although this thing is not as good as Thomson, it is definitely a heavy firepower for the underground party. If it shoots at Xu Enzeng's vehicle, it will be able to eat the table with one shuttle. It is an absolute killer.

Putting down the MP18, he looked at the bottom of the box again. Good guy, there are about a dozen Browning M1910s. The Japanese love this gun so much that they have prepared so many spares.

Zuo Chong pulled the sleeve, with a satisfied smile on his face, Nandou was just an intelligence team, and it was beyond his expectations to have such a harvest, one must know how to be content.

After counting the money and supplies, he got up and walked around the room, but found no intelligence documents, valuable clues, booby traps, or even traces of life.

Hearing the gradually noisy Suzaku Street outside, he felt that it was time to leave, so he casually put the cash and information files into the box, and put the safety bolts of the landmines on the side.

This time it was just a meeting ceremony. When the right opportunity came, he was going to get some real heavy weapons for the underground party. In the future, the situation between the enemy and ourselves would become more and more complicated. Only with a gun in his hand could he not panic.

Before leaving, he replaced the door and the main gate with new locks. The retreat process was very smooth, and he returned to the car safely. After making sure that there were no omissions, he drove towards Honggong Temple.

　The first colorless plastic was urea-formaldehyde plastic, which was made by Austrian chemist John in [-]. It was used as a glass substitute in Europe in the [-]s, and later it was often used to suppress general electrical materials and daily necessities.
