Chapter 18: The explosion finally happens

"What kind of explosion will happen? Where does it happen?...... If it happens in Fu Yucheng's house,...... That's right! They must have destroyed all the witnesses and physical evidence in order to receive the inheritance of 20 million gold dollars.

"What method was used to explode? It must have been installed in advance to let it explode tonight.

"I have to get out there quickly and find the bomb so it doesn't explode. But I can't go out now, what should I do?" Lang Xiaobai thought in his heart, anxious.

At this time, the sound of leather shoes, talking, and chaotic gunfire of the security guards became a chaotic mess in the underground tunnel, and there was a "buzzing" echo.

Lang Xiaobai hurried to the ground in a hurry, desperately searching in the dark. Minutes and seconds passed, and it was almost evening.

Lang Xiaobai was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot in the dark tunnel, touching the wall for a while, and stepping on the mud for a while, no matter what, he couldn't find an exit, and he didn't know what to do.

On the evening of May 25, the crowd of onlookers crowded around Fu Yucheng's house, all waiting for the fifth letter to appear, to see if there would really be a big explosion. These nosy people rushed from all over the country after seeing the news in the newspapers.

The inside and outside of the house are heavily guarded, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Curious people, some climbed the trees on the side of the road, some went up to the nearby rooftops, and the cracks in the road were crowded, waiting for a miracle to happen.

At this time, the sky was full of dark clouds, lightning and thunder in the distance, and the atmosphere was very terrifying, as if to tell people that something big was coming.

Nervous! Terror! People were listening with bated breath, even the slightest sound coming from the house.

At night, Inspector Wu, Deputy Inspector Lu Pei, Li Yunshan and others all gathered in the room where Fu Yucheng was killed and waited, and two security guards were ordered to wait for the dispatch by the side. In total, there are more than 30 capable security guards.

And so the minutes passed. By twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the fifth letter had not yet appeared, and there was no sound of explosion. However, no one dared to relax in the slightest, and there was silence all around.

Just as the clock hand was about to point to three o'clock, the silence was broken by the sudden phone ringing.

The detective casually picked up the microphone, but there was no sound from the other party. "Hey! Feed!...... Feed! Hey!" The detective shouted anxiously, "Who? Who is it? Please speak loud......"

The other person's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. The inspector gestured for the audience to remain silent, and then pressed the headphones to his ears. In this way, a very small sound was heard:

"Hey! Feed! I'm Lang Xiaobai......"

"Lang Xiaobai?......" Inspector shouted involuntarily.

"Lang Xiaobai, you ...... Where are you?"

The detective believes that Lang Xiaobai has been locked up in an underground tunnel and has no way to escape. "I'm in the house, I've come out of the tunnel. But that's all it takes

There were security everywhere, and I couldn't get out, so I had to hide on the ceiling of the study. ”

"What? Hiding from the ceiling? Come down!"

"No, I don't want to be arrested! What time is it?"

"It's three o'clock at twenty minutes."

"Huh? Twenty points ......" Lang Xiaobai's voice suddenly trembled. "Detective, hurry up and run away, at three o'clock, the house will explode!"

"Nonsense!"

"It's true! It's going to explode at three o'clock! The ferocious demon has set the time to blow up the house. Inspector, don't hesitate any longer! Hurry up! Don't you believe me?...... If I can get out, I'll throw you out one by one. I'm absolutely not talking nonsense! Three o'clock, three o'clock is sure to explode! Trust me, Inspector! Hope you are saved, goodbye!"

The phone hung up. The detective unhurriedly put down the phone and burst out laughing.

"What the hell is going on? Detective, what did Bai Lang say?" Lu Pei asked anxiously.

"Oh, not all that scare-scaring! He said the house would be blown up at three o'clock. ”

"No, Detective, I don't think it's necessarily all bluffing, it's seventeen and three points away now, so it's better to go out."

"Don't panic! Inspector Lu, Lang Xiaobai's words are too unbelievable. He said there would be an explosion at three o'clock sharp, but now that we were surrounded by high security, where did we throw it in? Even you're thinking, that's impossible!"

"But, Inspector, it's only been five minutes!"

Lu Pei stood up, took his hand, and thought of pulling him into the courtyard.

"It's so unbelievable! Why are you so scared?"

"Detective, Bai Lang is a haunting thief, and he must have received information that we don't know. I think the killer will definitely get the bomb here on time and somehow, and I'm sure Shirarou has already gotten the news beforehand. ”

"But why did he tell us about those who were his enemies?"

"Then I don't know. Anyway, let's get out of here and talk about it!" Lu Pei said, pulled up the inspector and dragged him out of the living room, then blew a siren, summoned all the people at the scene, immediately evacuated their posts, gathered in the courtyard, and listened to orders. Then he looked at his watch again and said:

"In two minutes, it's three o'clock."

During these two minutes of terror, everyone opened their eyes wide and stared silently at the house in front of them. People want to see the killer and see how the killer drops the bomb.

Suddenly, a dazzling firelight burst out of the living room, and everyone couldn't stand the stimulation of the strong firelight, and covered their eyes with their hands.

In an instant, an earth-shattering explosion rang out along with the firelight. The surrounding trees shook non-stop, and many onlookers were frightened.

Big Bang! What a big bang! Red flames erupted from the living room, and the whole house was surrounded by black smoke and flames.

The crowd was making a commotion outside, the sound resounded in the sky, and everyone screamed and shouted like crazy. "Call the Security Bureau and ask them to send a fire truck quickly!" The Inspector issued an urgent order.

"Li Yunshan, you go and bring Lang Xiaobai, he is hiding on the ceiling of his living room. Because the house was already surrounded by us, there was no way for him to escape. Go and bring him here, he is our savior, we must thank him! At the same time, I have a lot to talk to him about. ”

Without waiting for the inspector to finish speaking, Li Yunshan saluted and left.

"Brother Hao! Where are you?"

Li Yunshan came to Lang Xiaobai's house, explained his intention to the security guard standing guard, and ran into the living room.

"I'm here, Yunshan!"

Lang Xiaobai's voice came from the ceiling. At the same time, a small hole appeared on the white ceiling, and Lang Xiaobai's hand stretched out from the hole and waved it at Li Yunshan.

"Oh! It's here, come down!"

"You're here to get me, aren't you?"

"No, I came to pick you up on the orders of the Inspector."

"What? Didn't the detective lose his life? That's great. Was the time of the explosion three o'clock?"

"Yes, it's almost all over! If it weren't for your call, I'm afraid we would have been in a blur of flesh and blood by now, and our souls would have returned to the West. So the inspector said thank you and let me pick you up. ”

"Great! The detective and you are not injured, so I am relieved. At the time, I was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Later, I finally got through the phone. ”

"How did you make the call?"

"I hit it on the ceiling. If it weren't for the paper sandwiched in the empty book cover of "Journey to the West", I saw that it would explode at three o'clock, and I don't know when it would explode.

"I guess the detective will definitely wait all night at Fu Yucheng's house in order to get the fifth letter, if so, isn't it too dangerous? So, in order to inform the inspector to leave early, I tried my best to do everything I could on the flowering board. However, there is security everywhere below, and there is no way to get to the phone room. Finally, a hole was dug in the flowering board of the telephone room, and the microphone was hoisted up with a wire. The microphone line was about 3 centimeters from the ceiling, so even if I put my mouth on the flowering board and shouted, the other party still couldn't hear me clearly. ”

"Yes. At that time, the detective repeated the question several times, and we had no idea that you had put so much effort into making this call. ”

"It's not easy, but I'm very happy to be able to save so many lives."

"The Inspector treats you as his savior. Including this one, you've already saved him twice. Brother Xun, you have to be more vigilant against Lu Pei!"
