Conan: I am definitely not a kid

Chapter 97 Three Minutes of Bomb Disposal

The gangster was worried that Chi Ze would change, and after quickly dealing with the hostages and the scene, he poured the cash in the suitcase that Datehang had brought in into his travel bag, put it across his back, put on his gloves and mask again, and went straight to the store parked at the front door. The black car drove away.

Outside the mall, the police officer at the command podium held the walkie-talkie in his hand solemnly, pursed his lips and stared straight at the door. Finally, he saw a few blurry shadows in the glass wall gradually approaching the door.

When the glass doors with promotional banners opened automatically to both sides, the police present had a clear view of the group of gangsters——

Two tall male gangsters each held a female hostage, their guns pressed against the hostage's heads, and they guarded the female gangster walking in the middle from left to right. The female gangster was pressed against the backs of the two men, one on the left and the other on the right. Due to the height difference, their vital parts were completely covered.

Needless to say, everyone present immediately understood that the focus of the sniper attack was on the covered female gangster.

"This is sniper position 1, target B cannot be aimed at."

"Sniper Position 2, also unable to aim."

"Sniper position 3, you can shoot at target B, but the angle is not clear enough to determine the key point of aim."

The situation was simply terrible.

The police commanding the sniper operation gritted its teeth. What should I do? Do I want to take the risk?

In the event that a hit is not achieved, facing the situation where two companions are killed and she is about to be arrested, it is almost foreseeable for the female gangster to detonate the bomb. However, according to the analysis from the command post, the fundamental purpose of the prisoner is to detonate the bomb. If you don't start now, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a second chance in the future!
  The gangsters have hostages in hand. For the safety of the hostages, the police cannot directly send a car to follow them. The vicinity of the business district has undergone many diversions and expansions. The road conditions are very complicated. There are unmonitored dead ends alleys everywhere. The gangsters only need to find a place to park the car in advance. , you can change cars and evade police tracking in less than three minutes.

Three minutes, twenty hostages whose conditions are unknown, do they really have enough time to evacuate all the hostages?
  Even if the hostages in the mall could be rescued, the gangsters were so frantic. Once the other two people they took away were out of the police's control, would they really have any chance of survival?

In just a few seconds, the police department felt a war between heaven and man. They almost gritted their teeth and took the risk and ordered the snipers to take action.

But a second before he was about to speak, the policeman on the side suddenly raised his hand and waved.

It was a stopping gesture.

The police department suddenly turned its head and looked over, and saw that the very small communication indicator light on the table, no bigger than a thumbnail, suddenly lit up yellow——

It’s a signal from Dateline!
  They are sure to evacuate the hostages safely!
  The police department immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and almost collapsed on the spot. The next second, he held on hard, held the communicator and ordered: "Don't shoot! Repeat, don't shoot!"

"Snipers are on standby. The search team is in disguise and preparing to follow. Are the roadblocks set up?"

They want to rescue the hostages in the mall, and they will not give up on the other two people held hostage by the gangsters!

Mori Yuro, who was held hostage by the gangster, lowered his head and tried hard to cover his face with his hair to avoid leaving too many unnecessary impressions on the crowds of police around him.

The gangster had already walked to the car, and using the cover of the car body, he forced her to the other side of the car and blocked her in front of the rear window.

Mori Yuro, who became the gangster's sniper tool, and other female gangsters got into the car and sat in the middle before being put into the back seat of the car with a gun to their head.

There were three women crammed side by side in the double standard seat. Although it was not that crowded, it was obvious that the small space did not allow the two hostages to escape completely and leave room for the snipers to attack. The police could only watch helplessly as several criminals boarded the car with the hostages, closed the door and drove away.

  Matsuda Jinpei cut off the tie on his wrist almost at the same time as the gangster walked out.

Datehang brought a complete set of escape supplies, from lock picking tools to scissors, and because he was worried about being searched, he hid them all under the booster pads on the soles of his shoes. At this moment, he had just started to take off his shoes, and he was shocked when he saw Matsuda Jinpei's speed.

"Where did you get the knife?"

Matsuda Jinpei didn't have time to pay attention to him. He took out the pocket of mobile phones and other sundries confiscated by the gangster, found his own scissors from inside, untied the hands of the curly-haired woman who had helped Mori Yuro before, and handed the scissors to him: "The rest of you, please."

Then, holding a screwdriver, he squatted down directly in front of Datehang and carefully inspected the bomb wrapped around him.

Before leaving the mall, the gangster detached the bomb from the rolling shutter door, wrapped it around Datehang's body along with the load-bearing pillar, and restarted it before leaving. Because he didn't know how the bomb was triggered, Date didn't dare to move at this time. This was why he didn't take out the tools to escape for so long.

At least he used the signal device hidden inside his belt to report the news to the outside. Lying down and giving up the struggle, Datehan handed over his professional questions to the professionals and asked Matsuda Jinpei dryly: "Can I still be saved?"

More and more people were being released around them. The rescued hostages stumbled out and ran into the search team that rushed in. The scene became noisy and chaotic.

Among the turbulent and chaotic crowd, Matsuda Jinpei moved very steadily, carefully opening the bomb shell without any trembling in his hands, and observed the structure inside.

"This kind of thing, I have three minutes..." The habitual words stopped abruptly in the middle of the sentence. Obviously, they may not have three minutes to waste at all.

"Forget it, Matsuda, please go out." Datehang sighed, seeming to have accepted the fact, "You didn't bring many tools, and you didn't wear any explosion-proof clothing. It's not a problem to stay here."

Matsuda Jinpei was obviously under extreme pressure and was not even in the mood to open his mouth to refute. He just turned a deaf ear to Datehang's statement and concentrated on checking the internal wiring distribution of the bomb.

"despair."

Matsuda Jinpei's scissors were still in the curly-haired woman's hand. He held the scalpel and cut one of the wires.

The search team that rushed in took over the previous work of helping the hostages and evacuated quickly with the rescued hostages.

The bomb disposal expert in the search team squatted next to the two men. After just a few glances, he judged that Matsuda Jinpei's level was not inferior to his own, and he had already understood the structure of the bomb through the previous exploration. At this time, he insisted on Substitution is just a waste of time.

The bomb disposal expert simply shoved his tools into Matsuda Jinpei's hands and asked him to continue focusing on bomb disposal. He directed the search team on the side to carefully remove the bound hands of Datehan who were trapped in the wires, so as to try his best to remove them. Buy time for the evacuation later.

Datehang couldn't persuade Matsuda Jinpei, so he had to try to persuade the search team members who were standing by: "You should know that it's too late for me in this situation, right?"

Idahang said earnestly: "I can't have so many people bombed here with me, right? I won't have a good conscience when I go down!"

Matsuda Jinpei was really annoyed by his thoughts and said viciously: "Shut up!"
