The zero fire wire of the bomb is connected to the mechanical timer to form a loop. As long as the pointer reaches the set time, the detonator will be triggered, causing an explosion!
The German minister received the notice and hurriedly went downstairs to leave. Jiang Xinyu said: "You want to leave, but it's too late. As long as you cut the two wires at the same time, the bomb will not explode!"
The minister ordered: "Bring the scissors quickly!"
As he spoke, he walked downstairs without looking back. In normal people's thinking, it is always safer to stay away from bombs.
A guard handed two pairs of scissors to Jiang Xinyu, who ran faster than a rabbit. At this time, everyone wished they had one more leg.
Looking at the panicked crowd running downstairs, Hattori Mina said with a puzzled look: "Xinyu, what happened to them?"
Jiang Xinyu: "Mina, what are you doing here! Run as far as you want!"
"I'm worried because you haven't come downstairs for so long...What happened here?" Hattori Mina asked in confusion.
"There's a bomb! Leave quickly!"
"Bomb? What do you do?"
"I have to cut the fuse, otherwise many people will die!"
This kind of mechanical timer will trigger the detonator even if it is off by one second, and it must be cut off at the same time. This setting is mainly to prevent the bomb from being dismantled.
"Someone help!" Jiang Xinyu turned around and shouted. Except for Mina Hattori, who looked anxious, there was no other person behind him!
The timer showed that there was still one minute left. No wonder others were afraid of death at this time. Jiang Xinyu knew that he could only rely on himself. He picked up two pairs of scissors and placed them on the zero line of fire.
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. It was difficult for a person to exert force with his left and right hands at the same time. It would be safest if someone cut with him. Unfortunately, almost everyone upstairs ran away.
"Let me help you!" Hattori Mina squatted down and said.
"Why haven't you left yet?"
"If you don't leave, I won't leave either!"
"If the bomb explodes, you will be killed!" Jiang Xinyu roared.
"I'm not afraid!" Hattori Mina took the scissors and said, "Tell me, what should I do?"
There were only ten seconds left on the timer. Jiang Xinyu knew that he could not wait any longer. No matter what the result was, he had to cut the fuse. This was his last chance!
Jiang Xinyu calmed down and said, "Okay! Mina, listen to me and count to three and cut the wires hard!"
"Yeah!" Hattori Mina held the scissors with both hands and stared at the wire.
"one two three!"
"Crack!"
The two wires were cut at the same time, the timer stopped abruptly, and the pointer almost stopped at the edge of the detonation time. At the critical moment, the bomb fuse was successfully dismantled!
"Xinyu, is everything okay now?" Hattori Mina didn't show any fear on her face.
Jiang Xinyu looked at Hattori Mina and said, "Do you know how dangerous it was just now?"
"I know. If you cut it too fast or too slowly, the bomb will explode."
"Then you still stay..."
"I trust you."
"Aren't you afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid. With you here, I won't be so afraid."
"Mina……"
"Um?"
"With you like this, I'm really afraid that one day I will... let you down!"
Hattori Mina rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Is it possible? I said, if you lie to me, I will stab you!"
Jiang Xinyu was silent, and Hattori Mina said: "Are you angry? I'm kidding you!"
Jiang Xinyu slowly shook his head and said, "No, if I lied to you, I should be punished by your sword."
Hattori Mina coquettishly said: "Okay, do you still want to swear? This is not like you! In fact, I know in my heart that you are good to me, and I believe you."
Ten minutes later, the sound of footsteps could be heard climbing up the stairs.
The attempt to assassinate the German minister was no small matter. After receiving the report, Hattori Hikoo personally led the team and rushed to the Shengping Theater as quickly as possible. The bomb was taken back and dismantled by engineers for analysis.
Except for the guests in the VIP boxes upstairs who were frightened, most people on the first floor were kept in the dark. Only when they saw a large number of military police as if they were facing an enemy did they realize that something happened upstairs.

Baekjedang Pharmacy.
Following Jiang Xinyu's suggestion, Qian Runmin built an "ancestral massage room" in the back room, which mainly plays a role in assisting the recovery of lumbar muscle strains. Because the techniques are not very professional, few people usually visit.
At this moment, Jiang Xinyu was lying on the massage bed, while Qian Runmin was massaging and beating her in a decent manner, and even pulled out two cupping cups.
"At the end of the month, General Lu is going to the Soviet Union for further study and will stay in Yanjin for a short time. Our superiors asked us to do a good job of protection in secret!"
"General Lu? Which General Lu?"
Qian Runmin smiled and said: "Who else is General Lu in our party?"
Jiang Xinyu said in surprise: "Are you talking about General Lu Qiusheng?"
"Yes, that's him!"
"When going to the Soviet Union, why do we have to go through Yanjin? Wouldn't it be safer to enter Mongolia from Shanxi?"
"Representatives sent by the Northeast Anti-Resistance Federation met with General Lu in Yanjin. The situation there is more complicated and Yan'an needs to come forward for coordination."
"oh……"
"In addition, Comrade Lao Qiu has returned to Jizhong safely. He asked me to pass on a message to you. At all times, your own safety must be your top priority!"
"How is his recovery going?"
"Basically recovered, no problem."
"That's good."
"One more thing... The Soviets have been very active in Yanjin recently. Our superiors have instructed us to try not to conflict with them."
Jiang Xinyu was silent for a while and said, "Does your superiors know what happened at the Shengping Theater?"
"I know. That's why Lao Qiu told you to put your own safety first and take the risk to do that thing. If the bomb explodes, wouldn't your sacrifice be in vain?"
"The situation was urgent. If I didn't dismantle the bomb, hundreds of compatriots would die!"
"Yes, these Soviets do things without considering the consequences!"
"Could they fail to estimate the casualties caused by the explosion? From my point of view, it's not that the Soviets didn't consider the consequences, they just didn't care!"
"Alas..." Qian Runmin sighed. He agreed with Jiang Xinyu's opinion, but what could he do?
"Why did the Soviets assassinate the German minister?"
"The intention of the Soviets was to use this incident to drive a wedge between Germany and Japan. In addition, according to our intelligence, two GPU agents were missing in Yanjin. They suspected that it was the Japanese.
, this can be regarded as a kind of revenge."
Jiang Xinyu hesitated to speak. He originally wanted to tell Qian Runmin what happened in Moon Bay, but felt that it was unnecessary. If he participated in it, he would probably embarrass his superiors.
"General Lu arrived at Yanjin, which hotel did he stay at?"
"General Lu's pseudonym is Li Dong. He lives in the Spring Breeze Hotel near Russia City. It is relatively quiet there and is very close to the dock. You can evacuate at any time!"
