Chapter 30: Choice

For example, meeting true love in the vast sea of people, or the pair of scissors in many wires, these are all bridges that only exist in movies.

But the starring role of the movie is always a superhero, Huang Ze thought, it must not be him, he is not so lucky.

Earlier, after driving Lin Chen away, he fell into an unspeakable love again.

He didn't regret it, even if he was now squatting in front of a timed bomb and was forced to face a death that might be imminent, he didn't regret it, after all, as Lin Chen said, the occurrence of established facts is not subject to personal will. The reason why he felt an inexplicable feeling was because he found that he would really become a different person because of Lin Chen, emotional, irrational, and even his way of thinking became ugly, which was completely contrary to the elite education he had always received, and this qiē was all because of Lin Chen.

So now, when Lin Chen asked him to do irrational things again, what should he do?

Nearly 100 kilometers away, in the monitoring hall, Lin Chen stood quietly in front of the big screen, as if waiting for the result of Huang Ze's thinking.

"You should know that this is dangerous, and it is also possible that when he cuts that line of fire, this bomb will detonate instantly." Xing Conglian tilted his head slightly, leaned against Lin Chen's ear, and said in a low voice.

"I know, but with 10 minutes left, it's just as dangerous to let him drain a detonator." Lin Chen held down the microphone, as if he didn't want Huang Ze to hear the next words: "And I suspect that the driver is lying." ”

"How?"

"There are three problems. First, when a person lies, he inadvertently removes the subject 'I', saying 'while smoking' instead of 'while I'm smoking', 'let me stop' instead of 'let me stop'...... Because these events were not personally experienced by him, in making up lies, the sentences lost their subject, 'I'. ”

"It's too far-fetched, he also said 'I'." The chairman of the board of directors, who has been paying attention to the development of the situation, did not wait for the sentence to speak.

Lin Chen nodded, and then walked around the audience, his gaze fell on the top of the technical house that was desperately typing on the keyboard, and said, "Dynasty, answer me about your age, the first time you lied, and the second time you told the truth." ”

"Huh?" The technod who was named looked up, and it was not clear what was going on.

"How old are you?"

The problem came quickly, and he didn't have any time to react at all.

"16 Ahh Wang Chao raised his head and replied confidently.

"How old are you, I ask?" Lin Chen accentuated his tone and repeated again.

"Okay...... I'm 18 years old. ”

After Wang Chao finished speaking, he was suddenly silenced, and only then did he realize that he seemed to have really used the subject.

Hearing this answer, Lin Chen turned his head to look at the criminal servant, a little incredulous: "Child labor? ”

The captain was a little embarrassed, but he had to say, "He's an adult." ”

The chairman also wanted to refute, but the criminal conglian glanced at him and signaled him to silence.

"Go on." The criminal conglian said to Lin Chen.

"Second, lies are different from the memories of real events, lies often have more details and are very clear, when I asked him how the suspect carjacked, his answer was very clear, and he could quickly recall the name of the place 'Yuchuan', on the other hand, when I asked the teacher of Fengjing School, it also used some methods to make him recall the specific place name."

"But it is not excluded that the master specially remembered the location where they got off the bus!"

"Indeed." Lin Chen nodded, and then said: "So, there is a third point, when people tell a lie, they tend to think that they have been fooled, so when you ask him about it again after a period of time, he will have two reactions, anger or accidentally confiding the truth." ”

"But in such a nervous situation, shouldn't he be angry when you ask him the questions he has already answered!"

This time, the person who questioned Lin Chen was replaced by the manager of the passenger transport company who had been watching the big screen from the back, Yang Dianfeng asked angrily, and around him, many staff members looked at Lin Chen with the same meaning in their eyes. It was a bus driver who was tied to the seat of a bus with a timed bomb and just wanted to go home for a hot meal, and the questioning of such a victim always seemed too cold and too annoying.

Lin Chen was not moved in the slightest, he seemed to agree with these people's views, so he just looked at Xing Conglian, and his voice was very soft and flat: "Whatever is the result of a lie detector, it cannot be used as evidence in court, and it is impossible for a qiē to be 100% correct in the interpretation of lies." ”

"Assuming the driver is lying, it also assumes that he is an accomplice of the carjacker, and he will not allow himself to be killed, so it is safer to cut the line of fire than to remove the detonator."

"That's what I thought too."

"Why didn't you sue Huang Ze?" Xing Conglian noticed Lin Chen's hand holding the microphone, and suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with it.

"You see, even here, I said that the driver was lying, and so many people disagreed, so why didn't Huang Ze hear it?" Lin Chen raised his head slightly, looking at the young man in the police uniform on the screen.

"And then?"

And then ...... I'm pretty sure he won't listen if I'm serious about reasoning with him, but if I ask him to risk his life, he'll be more than happy to do it, because he won't miss something that might make me regret and suffer for the rest of my life. ”

Xing Conglian frowned slightly, thought about what Lin Chen said very seriously, and then looked at Lin Chen with the same serious eyes: "But if I am Huang Ze, no matter what, I want to know the information you said." ”

"Even if you're going to make the wrong choice?"

"Yes, when it comes to life and death, I want to make my own decisions instead of having someone else make a reasonable decision for me."

Lin Chen looked back at Xing Conglian, in fact, he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence very well, but the half-race youth's eyes were too firm, so he nodded and said, "I understand." ”

In the screen, Huang Ze is squatting next to the driver's lap, carefully studying the structure of the bomb.

At this time, a staff member has already sent a signal that the cleaned repair tools have been sent out of the car.

When Huang Ze turned around and stepped out of the bus, Lin Chen let go of the hand holding the microphone, and then said, "Huang Ze, keep walking, don't look back, I want to talk to you about something." ”

"Lin Chen, are you opening the public?" Huang Ze walked to the pipe wrench and milling tools on the ground, squatted down, and asked.

"Yes."

"Turn off the public, I have something to say to you."

When the torture conglian heard this, he looked at Lin Chen with some incredulity.

"Hmm." Lin Chen looked back at the torture slave company, and then in front of everyone, he turned the call into an earpiece and said, "It's closed." ”

"You told me to cut the line of fire, right?" Huang Ze raised his eyebrows slightly and asked softly.

"Yes, you listen to me, I'm skeptical......"

In the picture, Huang Ze smiled lightly, he was facing the parking lot surveillance, as if he had said something, and the next moment, he took off his headphones, put them in his pocket very easily, and then bent down to pick up the scissors.

Inside the monitoring hall, all the staff gasped.

Huang Ze's figure soon reappeared, he was holding the simplest repair scissors in his left hand, the red number on the timer was still beating, and the time was nearly 9 minutes.

"Don't let him cut it, there's still time, why do it now!"

In the crowd in the monitoring hall, I don't know who shouted such a sentence, and the people around responded one after another.

"Yes, yes, there's still time!"

The whispers of private voices gradually converged into a torrent.

However, the punishment Conglian did not move, he pressed Lin Chen's shoulder with one hand,

On the screen, of course, Huang Ze couldn't hear those words anymore, and he couldn't see that scene.

He didn't look at the camera again, he was very calm, his face and clothes were still so meticulous, he picked up the repair scissors, and without hesitation, snapped them into the complicated wires.

Some timid girls directly hid their faces with their hands, not daring to look at them again.

There was a soft click, and the line of fire was broken.

In fact, no one in the monitoring hall heard the slightest sound, and all they looked at was the dry and steady hands on the huge screen.

The wire was broken into two, the copper wire was exposed, there was no fire and sky-high smoke, and the bomb did not explode, but before people could quietly relax, in the next second, Huang Ze took a step back, and a loud rumbling sound broke out in everyone's minds.

As if the river was flowing into the sea like a dam discharging floodwater, the numbers on the timer were rapidly receding, the time was quickly reduced from 9 minutes to 7 minutes, and the red dots used to read the seconds flashed wildly.

Huang Ze didn't even have time to look at the camera again, so he returned to the car door and shouted at the reporters and a handful of staff members waiting outside the isolation line.

His mouth was wide open, and his hands were waved very hard, and in the blurry surveillance footage, everyone in the distance could be seen lying on their stomachs, their hands clenching their heads.

But there was no sound from these, because Huang Ze turned off the only communication device. So, everything that happens in the parking lot is like a grand silent movie, played out on a big screen hundreds of kilometers away.

In the monitoring hall, some people closed their eyes tightly, and some people began to cry.

Time flies and time flies.

Huang Ze reappeared in the range of the high-definition camera lens, he slowly approached the lens, in the picture, the texture of his clothes gradually became clear, but because he was too close, his face was always out of the frame.

Suddenly, Huang Ze raised his dry and steady hand, and the next moment, the picture turned into a still darkness.

He turned off the camera.

In the space, there was a faint cry, and Lin Chen stood still, his breathing and face were the same, and there was no disorder. And the hand that the torturer pressed on his shoulder did not weigh half a point.

"Dynasty, bring up the last frame of the camera." Xing Conglian's voice was still very steady, and in the sad atmosphere, it seemed too impersonal.

In the screen, the corners of Huang Ze's straight clothes appeared again, and through the gap between his hands and his body, it can be vaguely seen that the timed bomb on the driver's body has been completed in seconds.

It seems that some people at the scene are also aware of this, and their conversation gradually becomes louder, at first it is the sound of silkworms gnawing leaves, and then the sound gradually becomes louder, from doubt to happiness, some people begin to applaud, and some people begin to cheer.

At the same time, the originally black picture suddenly lit up, and I saw that I turned on the camera, and then angrily threw away the scissors in my hand, and dismantled the bomb tied to the driver with three strokes and five divisions.

At the moment when the timer was powered off, the shining LCD screen suddenly popped open, Huang Ze was so frightened that he almost sat on the ground, many colorful small ribbons splattered out, in the ribbons, the clown who just popped out swayed, his fingers almost poked Huang Ze's face, Huang Ze's face was pale, but his hand stretched out to the clown's other small hand, where there was a sweet, lemon yellow packaged candy.
