America 1881: They Call Me Legend

Chapter 481 Malicious Destruction

"Hi! Theodore!" Chen Jianqiu stepped forward and greeted the sheriff.

Roosevelt was inspecting the crowd, when he saw Chen Jianqiu suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and gave him a big hug.

The experience in North Dakota gave Roosevelt a new understanding of the Chinese in front of him.

Chen Jianqiu was the savior of him and his daughter, and helped him deal with many things, which made him grateful.

The two still communicate through letters from time to time.

"Why didn't you tell me you came to Chicago? My friend?" Roosevelt laughed heartily.

"Oh, you said in your letter that you will be the police chief here. I was afraid that you would be busy and it would be inconvenient, so I didn't go to visit you." Chen Jianqiu said with his hands on his hips, looking at the visitors coming and going in the exhibition hall.

"Hey, don't mention it, I'm here as a sheriff just for a temporary transition." Roosevelt leaned into Chen Jianqiu's ear and whispered, "I will return to New York after a while."

"The law and order in Chicago is terrible." He also crossed his hips and sighed, "There is too much work to do."

"No matter how bad it is, can it be worse in the West?" Chen Jianqiu looked at Roosevelt with a half-smile, "I'll ask Holiday to get you some people to help you later."

"Well." Roosevelt took off his hat and scratched his curly hair, "Let's make sure that this exposition can go smoothly. There are so many people, I can always find some moths for you."

Chen Jianqiu and Roosevelt stood at the side of the aisle and whispered, with their hands standing beside them meticulously.

"I'll talk to Mr. Roosevelt, you go and look around first." Chen Jianqiu saw that they were a little cautious, so he let them go around by themselves.

"By the way, you can go to the 'Coca-Cola' booth across the street and ask if you can become a shareholder, or get the management rights of several states." He said to Dylan's lawyer who was about to leave, "In a difficult situation, in a crisis Now, people need something sweet."

"Have you drank?" The lawyer turned around and looked at Chen Jianqiu suspiciously.

"I guess." His boss looked at him mysteriously, "If you don't believe me, go and try it yourself."

The crowd quickly dispersed.

The merchants participating in the exhibition are all looking forward to the new opportunities that this expo will bring them, and it is best to be able to award a gold medal in the previous expo, which will be a bonanza of wealth.

So they are sparing no effort to attract passing visitors.

In addition to sightseeing and placing orders, most of those visitors are also looking forward to the opening ceremony in the evening.

According to newspaper reports, they were said to be able to see a never-before-seen Expo site at night.

While Chen Jianqiu and Roosevelt were chatting, there was a commotion at the entrance of the museum.

"It seems that someone is coming." Roosevelt took the lead to stop the conversation and looked in the direction of the entrance of the museum.

Chen Jianqiu narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough, there was a disturbance in the flow of people in the aisle.

Someone separated the crowd and squeezed over.

A couple of Roswell Electric employees.

They all looked anxious and hurried.

Chen Jianqiu, the first employee, knew Leng Hongyi.

As he squeezed forward, he looked around and searched.

When he saw Chen Jianqiu, as if he saw a savior, he immediately walked to the boss.

When Leng Hongyi saw Roosevelt in police uniform beside Chen Jianqiu, he hesitated to speak.

"It's okay, what's the matter, just tell me." Chen Jianqiu folded his arms on his chest, beckoning him to speak directly.

Leng Hongyi took a deep breath, licked his chapped lips, lowered his voice and said:

"Our generators were damaged, and six of the twenty sets were broken."

"When did it happen?" Chen Jianqiu asked.

"Just now, Mr. Tesla took us to check the ten sets of generators in the south, and then went to check the ten sets in the north, and found that something happened." Leng Hongyi pointed to the electrician beside him.

"Where's Tesla?"

"I'm trying to fix it, he asked me to come to you." Leng Hongyi replied.

Chen Jianqiu nodded.

He turned his head and said to Roosevelt: "Theodore, you heard it too, someone damaged the generator, I have to deal with it quickly."

Roosevelt had already heard Leng Hongyi's report, and he greeted his subordinates:

"Let's go, someone is destroying the venues of the World Expo, you guys follow me to have a look!"

Chen Jianqiu and Roosevelt came to a factory building on the north side of the Expo Park.

This is the power supply site in the North District, and there are ten alternators inside.

They went in.

Tesla has taken off his suit, is holding a wrench, and a Chinese electrician is working together to tighten the screws of a generator.

His sleeves were rolled up high, the white shirt on his body was already black, and his curly hair was also messy.

"How is it?" Chen Jianqiu came to them.

"It's being repaired." Tesla said without looking back.

"Doesn't our generator design have a load margin?" Chen Jianqiu pondered for a while.

"The southern half is okay, it's overflowing, but the northern one is in trouble." Tesla rubbed his nose with his hand, "There are four groups left that can operate, and there is a high probability that some lights will not turn on. !"

Tonight's opening ceremony was attended by a lot of people. If the lights in some exhibition halls are not on, there may be a problem.

Chen Jianqiu calmly took out a pocket watch, checked the time on it, and then put it back.

"There are still three hours until the opening ceremony officially starts tonight, is that enough?" he asked.

"It's not a big problem, but if there are any bad things, it may be troublesome." Tesla said lightly.

This exhibition is so critical that it directly determines the outcome of the struggle between AC and DC.

Three hours, six generators.

If it were anyone else, they might not dare to play this guarantee.

However, Chen Jianqiu is full of confidence in the Serbian engineers.

It has to be said that this Serb is a genius.

Problems that make others look hopeless can be properly resolved here.

Roosevelt looked at the lying generators with a serious expression.

He turned around and said to the police officers behind him:
"Someone is maliciously sabotaging the facilities of the World Expo. We will investigate immediately and we must catch the saboteur!"

"There's no need to look for a needle in a haystack."

Chen Jianqiu suddenly stopped Roosevelt.

"I know where that man is."

He ignored the sheriff's astonishment, but greeted Tesla: "I'll leave this to you."

Tesla just said "hmm", and continued to devote himself to the maintenance work.

"Master Leng, go to the booth and find Kou Yongsheng, and ask him if he is ready. If you are ready, go to the generator set in the south to find me. The others stay and help repair the generator."

Chen Jianqiu gave the order.

He then turned his head and waved to Roosevelt and his police officers:

"Let's go, I'll take you to find the saboteur."

The police officers followed Chen Jianqiu, and their direction was the generator set in the south.

"Didn't you have someone guard those generators?" Roosevelt asked on the road.

"No, the inspection on the south side has been handed over to the park, but judging from the current situation, there should be no decent protection measures." Chen Jianqiu glanced at Roosevelt and the police officers around him.

Roosevelt was at a loss for words.

Like the north side, there is also a large factory building on the south side.

And when Chen Jianqiu and the others walked into the factory quickly, they really found a sneaky figure beside the generator.
