Chapter 375 Another bomb

 The basement floor of Qidao City Security Bureau, Tactical Command Center.

The atmosphere is extremely solemn.

Claire rubbed a cigarette to pieces, and Jin Shounan, who was beside him, also had a deep face.

There are less than 40 minutes left before the time for the Eden Paradise departs. Now there are 8,744 crew members, service staff and passengers on the cruise ship.

Ten minutes ago, the city hall received an anonymous call from a virtual network, claiming that the explosives had been placed on the cruise ship, and ransomware from the administration.

The other party's offer was 100,000 "Rose Dinar".

"Rose Dinar" is a crypto-virtual currency circulating on the Internet. Currently, the market price of a rose Dinar is floating around 300SP points.

Unlike the SP point account that is completely monitored and governed by the economic investigation department under the Administration, Rose Dinar's transactions are entirely based on the encrypted network. Relying on its security and relatively stable value preservation advantages, it has long dominated the virtual currency trading market and can be called virtual gold.

"The commander, Squad D on the cruise ship, reported that they did find a bomb at the location provided by the suspect." The correspondent on duty conveyed the news from Squad D to Claire.

A photo appeared on the electronic screen of the command center, where the specialist of Squad D found a bomb hidden in a box in a storage room on the cruise ship.

Claire looked back at Jin Shounan: "Now it can be confirmed that the other party is not bluffing. If what he said is true, there are more than ten bombs on the ship. I suggest that the first voyage of the Eden Paradise is immediately suspended and the passengers are evacuated."

"Contact the suspect and tell him that it will take time to raise 100,000 Rose Dinars, and hold him back." Jin Shounan instructed, "Send more people to the ship to eliminate the bomb."

Claire was furious: "You know this is unrealistic! Even if all the commissioners at the dock are sent onto the ship, it is impossible to complete the entire cruise ship within 40 minutes. If the suspect has an accomplice on the ship as a spy, he will be more likely to tear up the ticket after he notices our actions!"

"The arrow is on the string, I have to fire it." Jin Shounan pulled the collar and said resolutely.

"I cannot execute this order! I am responsible to all the specialists of the Department of Foreign Affairs!"

"This is what the municipal magistrate means. The 100,000 rose dinars the suspect wants are being concentrated." Jin Shounan stared at Claire with a serious look.

"What...that is..." Claire looked in disbelief.

Jin Shounan nodded affirmatively: "The Security Bureau does its best. If the bomb cannot be eliminated in the end, the municipality is willing to exchange 300,000 Rose Dinars for the cruise ship for a smooth sailing."

Claire shook his head: "How to ensure that the suspect will satisfy his appetite? If we cannot show deterrence, such extortion will continue during the cruise ship's voyage."

"This is not something we should consider now." Jin Shounan stubbornly insisted on his opinion, "We need to respond to the expectations of the city officials."

Claire knew that he could not convince the director, so he stood up and prepared to leave the command center.

"where are you going?"

"Go to the dock, since the superiors insist on betting, I must be with the specialists." She walked towards the elevator and connected the flight team's communication and told them to prepare the falcon on the roof.

...

On Paradise Eden, the storage room of Bomb Zero was found.

Yu Zhesen and An He arrived hurriedly and met Wu Xuan, the captain of Team D who was guarding the spot and Chu Yuexi who was ready to dismantle the bomb.

"You are here." Wu Xuan raised his hand to the two.

"Why hasn't the evacuation started on the boat?" An He asked in confusion. "On the way we came, we found that all the passengers were still wandering around and the radio did not issue a state of emergency notice."

"The top asked us to block the news so as not to cause panic." Wu Xuan helped the glasses frame, "The negotiating experts are dealing with the suspect. Our task is to find the bomb as much as possible and eliminate it."

Yu Zhesen squatted down beside Chu Yuexi and reached out to ask her for bomb disposal tools: "Give it to me."

"Be careful, there is a balancer detonating device inside the bomb." Chu Yuexi reminded nervously.

Before Yu Zhesen and An He arrived, she had used a screwdriver to unscrew the fixing screws on the bomb housing, but found that the cable connecting the detonator was pressed under a delicate balancer device.

It is difficult to cut the cable without moving the balancer device, but if there is a slight mistake when moving the balancer, it will directly detonate the bomb.

"No wonder the bomb has no design countdown," Yu Zhesen said after observing the bomb's design. "The sensitivity of this balancer is well controlled. The slight ups and downs of the waves will not trigger it when the cruise ship is parked in the port. But once it sets off, a little bit of wind and waves may detonate it."

"The suspect extorted 100,000 Rose Dinars, and he bet that the superiors were unwilling to mess up this massive event." Wu Xuan smiled bitterly.

A three-dimensional structural analysis diagram of a bomb has appeared in Yu Zhesen's mind, so it is naturally Shi Xin who is helping him.

He has already mastered the methods and principles of bomb disposal, and there is also a way to move the balancer smoothly, but the problem is that there may be more than this bomb on the ship.

After all, the location of the bomb was revealed by the suspect to increase the credibility of his threat.

If only this bomb was the only one, no matter how confident he was in his bomb design, he would not have exposed his location one hour in advance.

"How about Xiao Sen, can it be removed?" An He asked.

"It's not a big problem, but please go out first." Yu Zhesen said.

Wu Xuan had no objection to this. All the staff of Team D did not have professional explosion-proof equipment, so it is common sense to stay away from explosives during dismantling operations.

But neither An He nor Chu Yuexi wanted to leave. Instead, they did not leave, instead squatted down on both sides of Yu Zhesen.

"You can't complete the bomb disposal alone, right?"

Yu Zhesen glanced at her in surprise.

Chu Yuexi's ability to say this means that she has a certain understanding of the structure of this bomb.

"You... know the key to this thing?"

Chu Yuexi pointed to the buckles on both sides of the detonator detonator device and said, "Are they these two?"

"Yes, intern, I'll see you with admiration for three days." Yu Zhesen praised.

I remember when they dismantled bombs in the Dream Journey theme park in the Walking Area, Chu Yuexi was still a novice in this area and couldn't even understand the simplest bomb.

"I took the time to learn some bomb disposal knowledge from the people in the equipment department."

Then she concisely stated her opinion on dismantling the bomb, which was very similar to Yu Zhesen's idea.

The most dangerous small square of the balance meter presses the cable below, and there are compressed springs at the bottom of the four corners. The balance meter device is completely fixed by two metal buckles.

If you want to remove the balance meter, you must first open the buckle. At the same time, beware of losing the buckle limit and the spring bounces back to lift the small square of the balance meter above.

Yu Zhesen's original plan was to use the high speed that was above everything under the stagnation of time, open the lock and move the balancer to cut off the key wires in one go.

If no one present understands the structural principle of this bomb, then it is best to spend them all and then start the time to complete the bomb disposal operation, and no one will question his method.

But Chu Yuexi understood that the bomb could not be dismantled by one person according to the normal process, which made Yu Zhesen a little embarrassed.

It is extremely risky to use the time-stop ability to dismantle the bomb without using the normal process. None of them is an expert in detonating the bomb, and it is not easy to say whether they cooperate with each other.

But after calming down and thinking carefully, he found that this was an unavoidable challenge.

Because his time stagnates, one day he can only launch two restrictions. If more than 2 bombs need to be removed on the ship, this shortcut to take advantage of it.

If not, they must find a way to remove the bombs in normal processes.

"Does multiple people need to cooperate to dismantle this bomb? Then I will follow your command." An He looked at the two with trust.

"An He, you... it's better to go out first." Yu Zhesen frowned, "It's enough for two people."

An He insisted on staying, and she said, "Then I'll look at it, maybe I can help you some time."

Chu Yuexi asked a question with some disconfidence at this time: "Who will move the balancer?"

"I." Yu Zhesen replied without hesitation.

He was sure that with the assistance of Shi Xin, he was definitely the one with the highest precision in movement among everyone present. With the physical fitness strengthened by the blood of God, he was the person who was most likely to maintain the balance meter and not touch the critical point of detonation.

"Then I'll cut the line," said Chu Yuexi.

"Before I start, listen to my instructions." Yu Zhesen instructed, "If I say yes, you can cut it."

"clear."
