Women only affect the speed of my reasoning!

"That's right." Qin Sanshu nodded hesitantly.

"Well, speaking of which, Brother Ushu is almost old enough to find a partner... ugh!"

Memu Police Department said subconsciously with a familiar expression on his face, but he suddenly stopped speaking after noticing the expression on his subordinate's face.

"That's it~"

Sato Miwako tried her best to maintain a smile, but the slightly twitching corners of her mouth still showed a vague tendency to collapse.

She turned to look at Megure: "By the way, the police department, if this incident can be resolved smoothly, I would like to take two days off next weekend."

"Ah...yeah, okay, no problem, no problem."

The Mumu Police Department was sweating profusely and pretended to look around at the scenery.

"After all, everyone has been working overtime every day recently, so it's time to find some time to take a good rest."

Chapter 183: Three seconds of death (the second one is later)

No news came from the bomb disposal team until more than an hour after lunch.

They finally found the first bomb on the track of the circular line, and as Qin Xianshu deduced, the bomb was indeed controlled by a light-sensitive sensor.

Once the sensor detects insufficient light intensity, it will start a countdown. If the light intensity is not restored at the end of the countdown, the bomb will explode directly. Otherwise, the countdown will be reset, and the countdown will not start again until the next time insufficient light intensity is detected.

Although it took a little longer, after finding the first bomb, the mood and motivation of the bomb disposal team members were obviously much higher than before.

After all, human beings are different from machines. Machines can still operate at the highest efficiency even when the future is uncertain, while humans will suffer a significant decrease in efficiency due to forward-thinking and backward-looking.

The scary thing is not that the thing is difficult, but that the person doing it has no idea whether there is any hope for him if he continues to do so.

If they were still skeptical about Qin Xianshu's inference before finding the first bomb, now they can almost be described as unswerving.

Ten minutes later, good news came again.

A second bomb was also found.

Then came the third...the fourth...

By [-] p.m., all five bombs had been found and defused.

"I know, thank you for your hard work."

After talking to the bomb disposal team on the phone, the Mumu Police Department put down their mobile phones to announce the good news.

"Thankfully, all five bombs have been found and defused by our police bomb disposal team so far."

"Oh, thank God, that's great..."

The person in charge of the depot was greatly relieved when he learned that he did not have to wait for the explosion.

After all, if things really come to that point, he, the person in charge, will definitely take the blame, even if the fault is not his fault at all.

"Then the next step is..." Sato Miwako turned her eyes to Qin Ushu Fang's mobile phone on the table.

"Oh, Gan." Qin Xianshu said without warning.

Everyone looked at him in surprise, wondering why the high school detective still used foul language when the good news came.

Qin Xianshu raised his forehead slightly: "To be honest, I just realized that if the prisoner really waited until the sun went down before calling to confirm, then I would be late... I'll try to see if I can fight back."

"Uh……"

Sato Miwako was about to say something, but she saw Qin Ushu's mobile phone screen had already lit up first.

It turned out to be the familiar words "unknown caller".

It really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here.

Qin Ushu was also a little surprised. He raised his head and looked at Miwako Sato, and they both nodded slightly.

He turned the phone on to hands-free mode, and the latter began to operate the laptop.

The next second, a familiar voice came from the phone, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.

"How about it? It's already four o'clock in the afternoon. Have the five bombs been found?"

"What do you think?"

Qin Xianshu asked the same question indifferently, and at the same time winked at the Mingmu Police Department on the side.

The police immediately understood and began to mention the locations where each of the five bombs was found.

"The first bomb was located..."

Until the locations of all five bombs were reported, the other end of the phone was silent for a while and then laughed softly.

"As expected of a high school detective who is famous in Kanto, he is really good at it."

"The question you asked is too stupid." Qin Ushu mocked mercilessly.

"is it?"

The prisoner was neither angry nor annoyed during the phone call, but instead smiled even happier.

"Then let's get some serious food next. I installed a bomb at the Chiba City Hall. Its yield is smaller than those you found before. I can even tell you its specific location. In the utility room on the second floor of the city hall used to store cleaning supplies, you still have an hour and a half..."

"But?" Qin Sanshu knew that things would not be that simple, so he simply turned the corner for him.

The prisoner continued: "But that bomb is a bit special. It will display the location of the next bomb in the last three seconds before it explodes. If you defuse it before it displays, you will never know the next bomb." That’s where the bomb is.”

"That means you only need to dismantle the bomb within three seconds..." Qin Xianshu subconsciously moved his knuckles.

"Well, you can understand it that way, as long as you can do it." The prisoner chuckled, "Then it's still the same old rules. I wish you good luck in martial arts."

The phone was hung up again here.

At the same time, Sato Miwako, who was working on the computer next to her, clicked her tongue in annoyance.

"It's only a little bit close to being able to track it. It only takes two or three seconds. Damn it..."

Obviously, the signal tracking failed due to insufficient call time.

"What should I do?" Police Department Mu Mu looked solemn.

"Cool." Qin Xianshu shrugged, "If he wasn't getting high, even if we find the next bomb, we won't be able to defuse it directly. We have to wait until we know the location of the next bomb three seconds before the explosion. tear down……"

"What a mess!" Miwako Sato frowned and said loudly, "Even the most elite bomb disposal expert in the Metropolitan Police Department will take at least seven or eight seconds to defuse a bomb, and this is in a skills competition. When everything is ready, fully prepared, without any mental burden, and in perfect condition, it is simply impossible to achieve such results in actual combat.”

"Absolutely impossible?"

"Absolutely impossible!" she replied firmly.

Qin Xianshu clicked his tongue and said: "Then there is no way. If this is the case, if you want to know where the next bomb is buried, it means that the bomb will definitely explode because it is too late to defuse it."

"This……"

Sato Miwako's expression froze.

It wasn't that she realized that what she just said was lacking consideration, but that she suddenly realized something even more terrifying.

And at this moment, she very much hoped that Qin Xianshu hadn't realized the same thing as she had thought.

But alas, that's not possible.

"Let me go."

As the face of the policewoman with black stockings gradually turned pale, Qin Uanshu slowly let out a breath.

"Although I don't remember when I went to Greed Island and provoked such a bomb demon, but since the other party found me by name, there is a high probability that they have some grudge against me, so I'll do it."

"Don't be like this, there must be another way..."

"No, there is no other way." Qin Uanshu shook his head, "I have to do this, and only I can do it."

The policemen on the side listened to what the two said to each other, and gradually began to get clues.

"Wait, wait, Brother Xian Shu, are you serious?"

"Of course... I'm not serious."

Qin Ushu paused deliberately, his eyes swept over the two people whose expressions suddenly became dull, and he raised his eyebrows lightly.

"When did you get the illusion that the bomb had to be defused and that someone had to be crouching next to it if you wanted to know where the next bomb was going to be?"

"..."

"First evacuate all people in the Chiba City Hall area, then find a site where even if the bomb explodes it will not have much impact, if conditions permit, move the bomb there and wait for it to explode, and finally prepare an aircraft with aerial photography capabilities Remote real-time monitoring using drones, it’s that simple.”

"Uh, I see."

The police department was stunned for two seconds before they realized what they were doing and turned around to make arrangements.

Miwako Sato was also greatly relieved.

It's a pity. If I had been there a week ago, I might have really tried to bet my life on the last three seconds of bomb disposal...even if it ended in a dead end.

Qin Xianshu added in his heart.

Chapter 184 The Final Trial

With advance contact from the police and the threat of bombs, Chiba City Hall demonstrated unprecedented operational efficiency.

Chiba is only that big in total. The distance from the depot to the city hall is not that long. When the police car drove into the square in front of the city hall, the entire city hall was deserted under the setting sun. There was a dense isolation zone within a radius of 100 meters. Pull up airtight.

This level of efficiency is unique across Japan and is enough to make thousands of bureaucrats bow their heads in shame.

Of course, it's not that the local government in Chiba is so awesome, but Qin Ushu despicably reduced the original one-and-a-half-hour countdown to 10 minutes.

Yes, just 10 minutes. If you don't escape within 10 minutes, you'll be killed by a bomb. Don't run away if you like.

Although doing so may be suspected of spreading panic, but if the actual situation is true, there is no guarantee that these bullshit officials will not forcibly vote for city hall staff in order to show that the Japanese government will never bow to terrorist forces. It's such a waste to deliver an impassioned speech in the square at the gate and do the senior aerobics twice before leaving calmly. Therefore, directly spreading death panic is the simplest and crudest but effective evacuation plan.

Before death, everyone is equal.

"Let's go, brother Xian Shu." After getting out of the police car's co-pilot, Mu Mu Police Department said to Qin Xianshu, who also got out of the back seat.

"Ah."

Qin Ushu was about to take a step to follow, but he caught a glimpse of Sato Miwako in the driver's seat looking at him intently, with undisguised worry in her eyes.

After a brief hesitation, he made a don't-worry gesture to the latter through the glass window, and then strode into the city hall with the Memu Police Department.

He was accompanied by two members of the bomb disposal unit.

Following the location described by the prisoner on the phone, the four went up to the second floor of the city hall.

The bomb was not difficult to find. After all, the entire second floor was filled with offices. There were only two bathrooms and only one utility room for storing cleaning supplies.

When they pushed open the utility room door from the outside, they saw a variety of mops and brooms placed slightly cluttered against the wall in a small, dark space, with a red light flickering in it.

"As expected, here..." The Mumu Police Department did not rush forward rashly, but turned their attention to the accompanying bomb disposal team personnel behind them, "Check whether this bomb can be transported."

"Yes!"

Two members of the bomb disposal team responded in a low voice. They stepped forward cautiously. One was responsible for turning on the flashlight, and the other leaned down to take out a screwdriver from the backpack he carried. They removed the screws on the upper part of the bomb shell as gently as possible and opened it. The lid used the light of the flashlight to carefully look at the inner structure, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, this bomb is just a time bomb. It has no mechanism such as shock trigger or sound trigger. It can be transported, but you still need to be careful when handling it."

"I see."

The Memu Police Department nodded clearly, took out his mobile phone and made a call. He briefly told the Metropolitan Police Department about the next plan and the time and place to meet later, then put down the mobile phone and said.

"They're already on their way to bring the drone over, let's go."

……

Half an hour later, on the outskirts of Chiba Prefecture.

Qin Xianshu stepped on the soft grass, and the reeds as high as a person beside the stream less than ten meters away were swaying in the evening breeze. He looked calmly into the distance, as the last ray of sunset disappeared under the horizon. The city in the distance to the side gradually became brightly lit.

The bomb placed at his feet was still flashing red light and counting down tirelessly, with half an hour remaining.

According to the records of Chiba's local land use planning department, no industrial area or residential area has ever been built in this area. In other words, it is a complete wasteland, which is the most suitable place for detonating bombs.

After all, even in long-abandoned industrial areas and residential areas, there will be gas pipes arranged underground. If a bomb is detonated in such a place, it will be a lot of fun if there is still gas left in the pipes.

Chiba turned directly into Fuyuki.

"It's been a long wait, brother Xian Shu."

Familiar voices and calls came from behind, and Qin Xianshu retracted his gaze and looked back.

He saw the Mumu Police Department holding a large aerial photography drone in one hand on the grass behind him, and holding a cell phone that was on a call in the other hand, walking towards him with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
