In addition to the bus being affected by the bomb, the car following the bus was even worse off because the bomb was thrown out suddenly and the plainclothes officers in the car did not react. When the bomb fell to the ground and exploded, it happened to blow the car away.
This car and the plainclothes officers in it suffered the most. Although the people in the two police cars behind were better off, they were also thrown into disarray by the sudden explosion. They turned the steering wheel in time and did not hit the car in front, but they were also affected by the explosion. The people in the cars were not much better off.
Zhang Cheng and others had been chasing the bus, but due to time constraints, they fell far behind. When they caught up, they saw this scene.
A police car was blown into scrap metal, and two nearby police cars also had car accidents. The scene was really a mess.
The bus even crashed into the fence on the bridge, with half of the bus hanging in the air, which was quite terrifying.
Zhang Cheng, who saw this scene, shouted excitedly: "Help! Go and save them!"
Jiang Feng, who had originally suspected that there was a bomb on the bus, was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's order, he immediately rushed to the scene of the accident with his colleagues.
"Attention, everyone, be careful, beware of the secondary explosion, bus, send some people to the front to rescue the people on the bus."
Zhang Cheng led his men to run towards the bus. After the explosion, the bus had traveled for some distance, so it was several hundred meters away from the explosion site.
…………
A few hours later.
Li Shiqing was lying on the hospital bed with several layers of gauze wrapped around her head, her right leg hanging in the air, and her calf in a cast.
After the accident, she was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment and just woke up from a coma not long ago.
When Li Shiqing woke up, she screamed in fear and wanted to know what had happened, but she was quickly comforted by the doctor and arranged to recuperate in this separate ward.
She asked about the condition of Zhou Chen and other passengers on the bus, but the doctor told her nothing. She wanted to find out by herself, but now she couldn't move at all and could only wait anxiously.
She still remembered clearly what happened after the explosion, but not long after, she was knocked unconscious and she had no idea what happened after that.
Are there any casualties? What happened to Zhou Chen and Xiao Heyun? Have they escaped from the loop?
Just when Li Shiqing was worried and anxious, Zhang Cheng walked in with Jiang Feng and Yu Lei.
Li Shiqing was immediately shocked: "Officer Zhang, Officer Jiang."
Zhang Cheng and Jiang Feng were both stunned when they heard Li Shiqing's address: "Li Shiqing, do you know us?"
"I……"
Li Shiqing was about to nod, but suddenly realized that she met Zhang Cheng and Jiang Feng in the loop, and she actually didn't know these two people.
But she is someone who has experienced many cycles after all, and her psychological endurance is much stronger than that of ordinary people. With more experience, her ability to respond on the spot has naturally increased.
"I happened to have seen you guys before."
"is it?"
Zhang Cheng became suspicious and suddenly thought of the phone call Zhou Chen had made to him before. He wondered how Zhou Chen knew him.
As a result, before the investigation was completed, Li Shiqing, one of the passengers on the bus, could actually call out his and Jiang Feng's names. He felt that there must be something going on that he didn't know about.
Although he was thinking about these things in his heart, he still asked Li Shiqing kindly on the surface: "Li Shiqing, how do you feel now? We want to ask you some questions. Do you think your body is okay now?"
Li Shiqing nodded: "The doctor said I have a slight concussion and a fracture in my right leg, but everything else is fine. If you have any questions, just ask."
This was not the first time that Zhang Cheng and Jiang Feng had asked her questions, so she was not too nervous now.
Zhang Cheng nodded, then sat down beside the bed with Yu Lei. Jiang Feng went over to close the door of the ward before returning to the bed.
As the leader of the three, Zhang Cheng was the one who asked the question.
"Li Shiqing, I'm Zhang Cheng from the Municipal Public Security Criminal Investigation Detachment. These two are my colleagues Jiang Feng and Yu Lei. We came to you to find out more about the situation."
Li Shiqing nodded. She knew they were definitely going to ask about the bus bombing, but this time the situation was too critical. She couldn't remember much about what happened after the bomb was thrown. She only knew that she fainted soon.
"You ask?"
Zhang Cheng was not surprised. When the bomb exploded, the bus had not yet been damaged, and the passengers on the bus must have known about it.
He winked at Yu Lei, who opened his notebook and said slowly, "Li Shiqing, female, 20 years old, a junior at Jialin Normal University, right?"
Li Shiqing nodded again, "Yes."
Yu Lei continued, "At about 45: p.m. today, a No. bus had an accident on the cross-river bridge. Are you aware of this?"
Li Shiqing was a little panicked, but she still answered calmly: "Yes, there was an explosion."
Zhang Cheng said gently: "How much do you know about this accident?"
Before questioning Li Shiqing, they also asked several surviving passengers on the bus and learned some of the situation, so they chose to question Li Shiqing later.
Li Shiqing did not answer immediately, but asked: "I remember that the bus had an accident due to the explosion. How are the other passengers on the bus?"
Jiang Feng shouted in dissatisfaction: "Li Shiqing, we are the ones asking you questions now."
"Hey, hey, Jiang Feng, don't talk."
Zhang Cheng stopped Jiang Feng and said to Li Shiqing embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, he just has a bad temper, don't mind it."
"I know."
Li Shiqing's words "I know" made Zhang Cheng and Jiang Feng confused again. Why did it seem like Li Shiqing knew Jiang Feng very well?
Zhang Cheng continued, "Since you want to know the situation, I will tell you that there were eleven people on the bus. After the accident, two people died on the spot, one was seriously injured and died, and the rest, including you, were injured to varying degrees."
Upon hearing that someone had died on the bus, Li Shiqing asked anxiously, "Zhou Chen and Xiao Heyun, how are they?"
Zhang Cheng and the other two suddenly had a gleam in their eyes. Zhang Cheng asked calmly, "Are you familiar with Zhou Chen and Xiao Heyun?"
"Tell me, how are they doing?" Li Shiqing asked eagerly again.
Zhang Cheng thought about it and said truthfully, "They were all seriously injured, but Xiao Heyun was lucky enough to be alive. Zhou Chen hasn't woken up yet. You must have had a very good relationship with Zhou Chen. When we rescued you, he held you tightly. The doctor took a lot of effort to separate you. Because of his protection, you are lucky to have only suffered minor injuries."
Li Shiqing sat up straight and asked excitedly, "How is Zhou Chen? Is he in danger?"
"It's still uncertain at the moment, and we are still trying to save our lives."
When Li Shiqing heard that Zhou Chen was seriously injured and unconscious because he was protecting her, she looked extremely sad.
Jiang Feng noticed Li Shiqing's mood change and said, "Li Shiqing, before the accident, we received a call from the police saying there was a bomb on the bus. After investigation, we found that the phone that made the call was Zhou Chen's phone.
According to the other passengers, you were working with Zhou Chen and Xiao Heyun to snatch the bomb. Now Zhou Chen and Xiao Heyun are unable to be questioned, so you must tell us the truth. What is your relationship? How did you discover the bomb and the murderer? "
Li Shiqing was still immersed in the emotion of Zhou Chen's serious injury. She was really moved and uncomfortable.
In fact, she and Zhou Chen had not known each other for a long time. Even though they had fought side by side for such a long time, Zhou Chen almost hurt himself in order to protect her. She was moved but also felt very guilty.
Zhang Cheng and the other two were staring at Li Shiqing closely, afraid of missing any change in her emotions.
Remembering what Zhou Chen had said to her, Li Shiqing slowly told the truth.
…………
When Zhang Cheng and the other two finished listening, their expressions were all very strange. Jiang Feng even rudely interrupted them twice, but Zhang Cheng still let Li Shiqing finish speaking smoothly.
Cycle. This is the word that appears most frequently in Li Shiqing's description, and it is also the most important point.
Zhang Cheng asked: "You mean, you went through many cycles just to prevent the bus from exploding and find the bomb and the real culprit? Even the reason you met us was because you met us in the cycle?"
Li Shiqing said: "Yes, I know everything I said is ridiculous, but this is the truth. We went through many cycles before we found the bomb and knew that the aunt and the driver were in cahoots. They were the ones who wanted to blow up the bus."
Zhang Cheng and his friends had already learned this from other passengers.
Zhang Chengdao: "Besides these, what else do you remember?"
Li Shiqing thought for a moment and said, "Zhou Chen analyzed before that the reason we entered the cycle was probably to save people and find out the truth about the murderer. Now, although we have found the bomb and the murderer, some people are still dead. We may enter the cycle again."
"Li Shiqing, do you know what you just said?"
Jiang Feng questioned angrily. If he didn't know that Li Shiqing had made a contribution in snatching the bomb, his attitude might have been even worse.
"I know what I'm saying, and I know you won't believe me. I'm used to it, but I still want to implore you to investigate why the driver and the aunt blew up the bus. If we want to stop them, we have to know why they did it."
Zhang Cheng and the other two were quite speechless. Why did Li Shiqing seem to be more anxious to know the truth than them?
Zhang Chengdao: "When the bus accident happened, the driver was seriously injured, and the woman you mentioned was one of the victims."
"died?"
Li Shiqing was stunned for a moment, but then said firmly, "You still have to investigate, because in my impression, the driver is a very good person. He must have a special reason for doing this. I must know this reason so that I can stop them next time."
Zhang Cheng and the other two stood up. "Okay, Li Shiqing, our questioning ends here for now. If you can remember anything later, be sure to inform us in time."
After saying that, the three of them left the ward.
As soon as he walked out of the ward, Jiang Feng couldn't help it anymore.
"Master, look at what she said. How can we hand in such a confession? Is she playing tricks on us?"
Zhang Cheng glanced at him calmly: "What good will it do her if she plays tricks on us? The other passengers have also confirmed that Li Shiqing was indeed trying to stop the explosion."
"But what she said is too..."
Zhang Cheng rubbed his brows and sighed, "When Xiao Heyun's condition stabilizes, we will go ask him. Li Shiqing and Zhou Chen are both from Jialin Normal University. They may have known each other before, but Xiao Heyun has no intersection with them. We should be able to get something from him."
After Zhang Cheng and the others left, Li Shiqing couldn't lie down either, and wanted to get up to find Zhou Chen, but her right leg was injured, and she couldn't move normally at all, which made her very discouraged.
"Zhou Chen, please be alright."
She prayed silently in her heart, but suddenly she thought that they did not really stop the explosion, and the cycle might begin again. If it did, the injuries Zhou Chen suffered in this cycle would definitely be healed.
"Yes, we will definitely enter the cycle again."
…………
As soon as Zhou Chen opened his eyes, he saw a black shadow rushing towards him. He was startled, but before he could do anything, he heard a familiar voice.
"Zhou Chen, how are you?"
Zhou Chen looked at Li Shiqing strangely and asked, "What's wrong?"
When Li Shiqing saw Zhou Chen open his eyes and speak normally, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest.
"It's good, it's good. It seems we have entered the cycle again. That's great."
"I'm in a cycle again. How can that be a good thing?"
Zhou Chen sat up straight and then frowned. He felt his body becoming weak again. The feeling was very strong, as if he had aged by ten years.
"We have entered the cycle again, which means we have failed again. Li Shiqing, do you know what happened later?"
His memory still remains at the moment when the bus rolled over. At that time, he didn't know what his head hit, and then he lost consciousness.
Li Shiqing quickly said: "You threw the bomb and the bus had an accident..."
Before she could finish, Zhou Chen stopped him.
"Okay, now that we've entered a cycle again, the events of the last cycle are no longer important. What's important now is how to deal with the next cycle. I feel my body is getting weaker and weaker, and I can't stand a few more cycles."
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 543 The tenth cycle, the bomb is unloaded
"The vehicle is moving. Please sit tight and hold on. Next stop is Yanjiang West Road Station."
At 1:35, the first thing Zhou Chen did when he woke up was to check the time. As expected, it was one minute earlier.
Arriving one minute earlier meant they had one more minute, but one quarter to one was already very short, so they still couldn't waste time.
However, Zhou Chen remembered one thing: the bus would stop at Yanjiang East Road Station before 1:35.
When Li Shiqing heard Zhou Chen say that his body was becoming weaker and weaker and that he might not be able to endure many more cycles, his face was suddenly filled with worry and nervousness.
She had always had a good impression of Zhou Chen, and in the last cycle she heard Zhang Cheng and the others say that Zhou Chen was seriously injured in order to protect her. This made her involuntarily feel strange and she didn't want to see Zhou Chen get hurt.
"Should we call the police? The driver is in cahoots with that auntie. How can we stop them? And I always feel that they do this for a reason."
Xiao Heyun also came over at this time. He said angrily: "No matter what their reasons are, it is not a reason for them to blow up the bus. We must stop them."
Zhou Chen said: "I'll call the police first, and after that, we'll discuss countermeasures."
So Zhou Chen hid behind the scenes again and called the police. With the experience from the last time, he was much faster this time.
Zhang Cheng from the Public Security Bureau received the call and took action immediately.
Zhou Chen discussed the next course of action with Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun. Li Shiqing also briefly described the situation last time.
"It turns out that even if we drop the bomb, as long as people die, we will enter the cycle again. So dropping the bomb is not a reliable method. We must ensure that no one is injured or killed. Only in this way can we get out of the cycle."
"We don't have much time. Just like last time, we must first subdue the woman and take the bomb. As for the driver, leave it to me. I will find a way to make him stop the car."
Li Shiqing asked: "Do you have any way to get the driver to stop the bus? If we force it, the bus will definitely lose control and there will be a car accident and death, and we will still fail."
"No, this time is different. I have already made an agreement with Zhang Cheng that as long as the bus enters the cross-river bridge, they will force the bus to stop. If soft tactics don't work, we will use hard tactics. If it doesn't work once, we will try a few more times and make the bus stop."
