173 Coercion
Until an earth-shattering explosion came from the northeast corner of the dome, which shook the earth, and then the steel and glass shattered, smashing towards the ground like a goddess scattering flowers.
The special police officers did not hesitate to protect the crowd with their bodies, but many people were still implicated at the scene.
Because of the explosion, the chaos at the scene was even worse, the injured, the crying for help, and the panicked fleeing were mixed with the smoke and dust and the heavy smell of gunpowder, like purgatory on earth.
Jiang Cen was climbing on the wall of the deep well, the violent explosion did not make her stop for a moment, even if her hands were pierced by the rusty steel, she still climbed up firmly, until the light source became stronger and closer.
At this moment, the spotlight of the audience was focused on Stage A, and the giant screen on which the advertisement was playing and the ELD display outside the venue were broadcast simultaneously.
The man with an arrogant and sick face smiling on the screen was none other than Lei Yi.
"Good evening, everyone! Hahaha! ”
Lei Yi raised the white bomb controller in his hand and said arrogantly to the camera: "Comrade police, are you still satisfied with the explosion just now?"
Wu Xin evacuated the crowd in the stadium, and faced Lei Yi's face on the giant screen, and he couldn't wait to rush up and give him a few punches on the spot.
Lei Yi grabbed the hair of the hostage in front of him and pulled the person to the camera, the woman looked frightened and desperately wanted to struggle, but she was slapped by Lei Yi.
"Comrade policeman, I believe you already know who I am and why I am here! So in order not to waste each other's time, I'm going to say what I'm asking for now, and you'll have to listen carefully. ”
Lei Yi's mournful laughter echoed inside and outside the venue, and even the tens of thousands of spectators in the square held their breath at the moment, and the noisy sound stopped instantly, for fear that breathing hard would trigger the next round of explosions.
"I want a helicopter, and in fifteen minutes it will stop in the east area behind the gymnasium, if I don't see the helicopter in fifteen minutes...... Then let's all die together! ”
Lei Yi raised the controller in his hand above his head and shook it, gesturing to press the button.
Everyone was so frightened that they hugged their heads and screamed, for fear that the top of their heads would explode again in the next moment.
No one knows how many bombs Lei Yi has planted, and no one knows where they are hidden.
Wu Xin immediately ordered on the walkie-talkie: "The snipers of the third squad are looking for sniper points, and under the condition of ensuring the safety of the hostages, they are allowed to kill the target!"
"No way!"
Jiang Cen stepped on a force point, and immediately retorted after hearing Wu Xin's order: "The detonation device of Lei Yi's remaining three bombs should be set on his heart, once the heartbeat stops, the three bombs will explode at the same time!"
"Jiang Cen?" Wu Xin was puzzled: "How do you know?" Can you be sure? ”
"Not at the moment, but there's an 80% chance of it."
Jiang Cen looked at the distance of one step, silently cut off the connection, and struggled to get on the stage.
"Team Wu, please believe Jiang Cen."
Duan Yuyu's voice came from beside him, he was wearing an explosion-proof suit weighing forty pounds at the moment, standing silently beside Wu Xin, staring at the image on the giant screen.
Regardless of whether what Jiang Cen said was true or not, at least there was a bomb Jiang Cen was not wrong, Wu Xin decided to believe her again, and temporarily withdrew the order to let the sniper kill Lei Yi.
He then contacted Zhang Ju and requested the dispatch of a helicopter and rescue.
At the moment when Luo Jingchuan received the discovery of Lei Yi's whereabouts, he had already rushed to the scene with the criminal investigation and other police forces of the police department, surrounded the gymnasium from the periphery, and divided people into the stadium to assist the evacuation of the injured.
When Luo Jingchuan joined Wu Xin and Duan Yuyu, the expressions of the three of them did not relax in the slightest.
"How is it, what does Zhang Ju say?" Wu Xin asked.
Luo Jingchuan said: "What Zhang Ju means is to stabilize his situation first, find a way to find the bomb, and defuse the bomb!"
Wu Xin hurriedly said: "This is the largest gymnasium in the country, where can I go to find a bomb in fifteen minutes!"
Duan Yuyu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Lei Yi just said that if he can't meet his demands, he will die with everyone, right?"
Wu Xin raised his eyebrows, "Yes, that's the original word, is there a problem with this?" ”
Duan Yuyu said: "I have seen the structure of the venue, if you want to achieve what he said, 'end together', then there is only one way."
"If you use four bombs to destroy the pillars of the dome, then the dome will collapse completely, and no one will survive in the stadium."
Wu Xin and Luo Jingchuan gasped, as if they had imagined the tragedy of the dome falling in front of them.
And thinking of the explosion in the northeast corner of the dome just now, if Duan Jiyu expected it well, then there must be bombs in the other three corners.
"I'll go to the northwest corner." Duan Jiyu was the first to make the choice.
"Then I'll go to the southwest corner." Wu Xindao.
"Give it to me in the southeast corner."
"Don't get close to the bomb after finding it, if it's a detachable bomb, listen to my command, if it's too late, throw it into the stadium, and you must not let it explode in the dome!"
Luo Jingchuan and Wu Xin said in unison: "Understood!"
All three turned around at the same time and ran towards their goal.
The stage is set in the northwest corner, facing southeast, and stage A is just below the pillar in the northwest corner.
Duan Jiyu chose the northwest corner for the first time, knowing that Jiang Cen was tracking Lei Yi.
At this time, he had to congratulate himself that he had studied the design of the venue in advance, so that he could find the most likely explosion point in the first place.
I just hope it's good.
The structure of the Shining Star Stadium is an open dome, and 46,000 steel pipes, 340 steel castings, and about 8,000 tons of steel were used to ensure all-weather use.
Therefore, when the dome is opened, the steel frame can be seen crisscrossing the top, and the designer has built a hollow steel frame channel to link the entire dome to facilitate later inspection and maintenance.
And the three of them stepped in three directions, and when they arrived at the load-bearing pillar that Duan Yuyu said, they quickly found the bomb set by Chen Yuan at the joint.
Luo Jingchuan and Wu Xin retreated a few meters at the same time to wait for orders, while Duan Yuyu, who was wearing an explosion-proof suit, approached the bomb directly to study its disassembly and assembly methods.
It's just that the more he checked, the tighter Duan Yuyu's brows wrinkled.
"This bomb is set to be triggered remotely, with a spirit level inside, and once it is tilted more than 15 degrees, it will explode, and there is no way to take it off, so it can only be defused on the spot."
Duan Yuyu's words made Wu Xin and Luo Jingchuan both silent for a while.
The risk of on-site bomb disposal is extremely high, ranging from being torn apart by the explosion to collapsing the entire stadium, causing immeasurable casualties and property losses.
"Duan Jiyu, how sure are you?" Luo Jingchuan asked in a deep voice.
Duan Yuyu only hesitated for three seconds, and solemnly replied: "80%."
Luo Jingchuan took a deep breath and said in a relaxed tone: "I believe you."
Wu Xin also said: "Eighty percent probability, enough to give it a try."
"Okay, then now let me arrange, you can exit the dome at once and return to the ground."
Luo Jingchuan was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "You want to stay on it alone?"
