Director Huang came out and said to him: "This wooden box is used to hold the 'core components', and it is empty inside."
Du Ziyuan noticed that there was some thick padding inside the wooden box. He said: "Take out all the padding inside, hurry up!"
Several soldiers rushed over and quickly took out all the padding inside and checked every piece of padding. However, the box was indeed empty and there was nothing in the padding.
Everyone stood quietly, looking at the wooden box and Du Ziyuan.
Du Ziyuan observed the wooden box carefully. The box was very strong and made of thick wooden boards. There were three thick sleepers at the bottom of the box to facilitate the forklift.
He said: "Turn the box over!"
Several soldiers immediately stepped forward and overturned the box. At this time, everyone saw that there was a black wooden box under the box. There were several yellow TNT explosives lined up in the wooden box, which looked very much like children celebrating the New Year.
The "Two Kicks" are fired at the same time. Next to the "Two Kicks" is a round timer, which is moving very quickly.
Du Ziyuan rushed over immediately. He saw a red line on the timer, set at six o'clock, and the time had already reached five fifty-five.
He didn't care about anything, picked up the wooden box and ran outside, shouting at the same time: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
He rushed out of the experimental building, rushed out of the gate, and ran away quickly.
At this time, Wu Jian caught up with him from behind and shouted to him: "Director Du, give me the box! I have learned how to defuse bombs!"
Du Ziyuan immediately handed the box to him and shouted: "Go forward! Go forward! Be sure to dismantle it!"
Wu Jian took the box and ran away, and quickly threw himself down under the wall.
Zhang Zhengdong caught up from behind, held Du Ziyuan's shoulders and said: "Get down! Get down!"
Du Ziyuan lay down involuntarily, and then pulled Zhang Zhengdong to lie down as well. They looked anxiously at Wu Jian in the distance.
Wu Jian was lying under the wall, staring at the bomb in the box, but secretly complaining in his heart. He had indeed learned to defuse bombs, but now he had no tools in his hands.
Wu Jian has already seen that the bomb is assembled simply and compactly, but the situation under the timer is more complicated. If he is not careful, it will explode immediately. He feels that he can only pull out the detonators one by one. Six sticks of explosives, one by one
It takes time to pull out the detonator. But the time on the timer goes very quickly.
He gritted his teeth and carefully pulled out the detonators. After all six detonators were pulled out, the time on the timer was almost up. He grabbed six sticks of yellow explosives in his hand and immediately stepped back. Just after taking a few steps, that
There was a burst of banging sound from the box, like firecrackers exploding. The detonator exploded!
Wu Jian held the explosive in his hand and turned back to Du Ziyuan with a smile, "Director Du, the bomb has been defused!"
Du Ziyuan exhaled a long breath and slowly stood up from the ground. He felt that his back was covered with sweat, as if countless ants were crawling. But he still couldn't relax because there was a third explosive.
!Where is this third explosive?"
At this time, Zhang Zhengdong patted him heavily on the shoulder and said, "Lao Du, you did a good job! The danger is over!"
Du Ziyuan looked back at him, but there was no smile on his face, and there was even more nervousness and vigilance in his eyes.
At this time, Qin Donghai came over and whispered in his ear: "Old Du, Director Meng Wei is missing."
Du Ziyuan was still staring at Zhang Zhengdong, the vigilance in his eyes was very obvious. He said calmly: "Look for it! Search in the entire institute! Search carefully!" His eyes were still staring at Zhang Zhengdong.
At this time, the smile on Zhang Zhengdong's face gradually disappeared, replaced by severity and anger.
In the next fifteen minutes, Wu Jian and Qin Donghai led the soldiers to search the entire institute, even the sewers. However, Meng Wei was still not found.
During these fifteen minutes, Du Ziyuan and Zhang Zhengdong stood still, staring at each other with stern eyes, motionless. It was not until Qin Donghai reported to him again that Meng Wei was indeed not found, that Du Ziyuan's expression gradually softened.
. He stretched out his hand to Zhang Zhengdong and said: "Old Zhang, I'm sorry, I made you suffer unjustly."
Zhang Zhengdong's lips trembled slightly, still staring at Du Ziyuan, and reluctantly shook hands with him. But he did not relax, but turned his gaze to the distance.
However, at three o'clock this morning, Du Ziyuan decided to take the risk of "detaining" Zhang Zhengdong. It was originally a "fake show", but he did not expect that it would later turn into a "real show".
When Meng Wei first told him that there might be problems within the Intelligence Department, he believed that Meng Wei was loyal. At that time, he did not dare to doubt Zhang Zhengdong. At most, he was a little doubtful.
When Meng Wei told him for the second time that there might be hidden dangers within the Intelligence Department, and that he had worked in different intelligence departments with Deputy Director Zhang, it was only at this time that Du Ziyuan became wary of them.
He once checked the files in the secret archives of the Central Regulation Department, but could not find any clues about the "Water Hyacinth". At that time, he always believed that the "Water Hyacinth" was hidden within the Central Regulation Department. Meng Wei's statement immediately made him
It reminded him that in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a particularly big change in the national intelligence system, and many intelligence personnel changed jobs during that change. Perhaps "Water Hyacinth" left the Central Regulation Department because of this!
By this time, he was no longer just confused about Zhang Zhengdong and Meng Wei, but became suspicious.
It was not until Zuo Shaoqing told him that "Water Hyacinth" was also in Wuhan that he was finally convinced that "Water Hyacinth" was most likely one of the two men, Zhang Zhengdong and Meng Wei. But he could not determine which of the two people was
"Water hyacinth". At this time, he had no other choice but to take the risk of "detaining" Zhang Zhengdong to separate the two people and then screen them.
At the critical moment when the time bomb is finally found, whoever moves is the "water hyacinth"! Whoever disappears must be the "water hyacinth"!
At this time, the "water hyacinth" that had been weighing on Du Ziyuan's heart like a big mountain finally revealed his true appearance. Until the last moment, he could not believe that Meng Wei was the "water hyacinth"!
The doubts about Deputy Director Zhang Zhengdong were finally eliminated after a year-long investigation. However, his position was never restored. After the mission in Wuhan, he first worked in the data room of the General Staff Intelligence Department for a period of time.
, and was later assigned to manage the warehouse. The rest of Zhang Zhengdong's life, as well as his political life, has always been shrouded in the shadow of the "water hyacinth".
"Water Hyacinth" has been working by his side for many years, but he didn't notice it. In the intelligence system, such mistakes are unforgivable. When he heard the news that Meng Wei had disappeared, he already understood the fate.
In the intelligence system, there is no such thing as human kindness! No matter in ancient or modern times, at home or abroad!
On this day of May 24th, although it was already evening, the work behind it was still not easy. Because there was a third explosive hidden somewhere. When Du Ziyuan thought about the third explosive, he was filled with excitement.
The pressure is even greater and there are more doubts.
Under Du Ziyuan's close supervision, the vital "core component" was carefully packed and put into the huge wooden box. Before it was put on the truck, Du Ziyuan ordered Wu Jian to strictly inspect all vehicles, including the
Bottom. No explosives were found on any of the vehicles. The "core components" were finally loaded onto the truck.
After that, Wu Jian commanded the troops to strictly protect the car along the way. At about ten o'clock that night, it was sent to Wuchang Railway Station. There, Du Ziyuan once again ordered a strict inspection of the stuffy tank carriage, but still no explosives were found. In this case, let
Du Ziyuan was very confused. He knew that "Water Hyacinth" was an extremely cunning person, and the third explosive must have an important role. But he didn't know where it would work.
Now, this vital "core component" was finally sent into the stuffy tank car that had just been inspected. At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, this special train left Wuhan under heavy military protection.
But at this time, Du Ziyuan became more confused and kept wondering where the "Water Hyacinth" would put the third explosive.
A few days later, Lao Luo in Beijing led people from the Central Adjustment Department and cooperated with people from the Intelligence Department of the General Staff to search Meng Wei's residence. Finally, the twenty-four missing top-secret files were found in the secret basement of his home.
. Another thing that is strange is that he actually found a detailed resume written by a person named Liu Qiuyue in this basement.
Later, Du Ziyuan also saw this resume. Later, he followed Zuo Shaoqing's request and reported to Lao Luo for approval, and formulated a brand new resume for Liu Qiuyue.
This is the reason why Liu Qiuyue and Fu Huaizhen live long lives.
However, this story is not over yet, because "Water Hyacinth" is on the run!
There is another person who is also running away, that is Zhao Minggui. Now, let’s look back at this Zhao Minggui.
On the morning of May 24th, Zhao Minggui arrived at the intersection of Zhongbei Road very early. He hid in a corner and looked at the small department store from a distance. For him, this morning was a key moment.
It is related to his life and death. He must see the result before he can decide his next action.
At about 7:50, he saw Du Ziyuan's car stopped in the distance. Du Ziyuan got out of the car and walked towards the small department store with a young girl. He watched Du Ziyuan enter the store. At this time,
He was very nervous and didn't know what would happen next.
A few minutes later, he saw Du Ziyuan standing in the door of the department store, looking out. Then, he saw Lin Wenxiu walking to the door, looking both ways. He understood that they were waiting for him. Thinking of this, he felt a wave of excitement all over his body.
His nerves were racing. At this moment, he unexpectedly heard the sound of a gunshot.
