Chapter Ninety-Eight: Every Time It's a Little Bit Worse
"Squeak—"
Wang Xingde slammed on the brakes, and the passengers in the car, both standing and sitting, fell forward and backward due to inertia, but Wang Xingde didn't care about them at all.
He looked at Conan in shock, as if he were looking at some terrible youkai.
"How did you ......?"
"You don't care how I know, now keep driving, you don't want your wife to notice the abnormality, just detonate the bomb here?"
Conan didn't move, blocking Tao Yinghong's sight with his body, preventing the two of them from making eye contact, urging Wang Xingde to continue driving.
When the time gradually came to 1:4, and the car gradually drove to the road across the river bridge, Wang Xingde's psychology definitely had a process from hesitation to decisiveness, which can be seen from the beginning that he was willing to let go of the gray plain mourning of "meeting a pervert".
At the beginning, he was hesitant about Tao Yinghong's revenge on society, but as time went by, the chances of turning back became less and less.
It's not that I don't want to turn back, it's that I don't have a chance to turn back.
"How the hell did you know about Moe Moe, and you knew that she stayed......
"You promise me to stop when the car reaches the bridge and open the door. I'll tell you how I know."
Conan didn't directly say that he had experienced such a thing as a pre-cycle vision, but talked about the conditions with Wang Xingde.
「……」
Naturally, Wang Xingde would not agree easily, he responded to Conan with silence, and raised his head to observe Tao Yinghong's reaction in the rearview mirror.
"Well, I'll tell you what will happen later. The car will drive to the last intersection in front of the bridge at 1:42, where you will encounter a red light and on the opposite lane, a tanker truck will come on."
Conan pointed to his watch, the time was 1:40, two minutes before the time Conan had spoken.
"What the hell do you want to do?"
"Calm down, Mr. Driver, you probably won't believe what I'm going to say now, but you'll be able to verify what I'm saying in two minutes."
"I have a way to see the past and the future, know what will happen in the future, and also know Wang Mengmeng's past, the cause of her death is not as simple as you think, if you want to know the truth, I can help you."
"But if you just insist on going your own way, you can't take revenge."
「……」
Wang Xingde's lips moved, as if he wanted to speak, but after hesitating for a long time, he still couldn't speak. At this time, the bus has come to the intersection and is waiting for the red light.
"It's 1:42, and at the end of the red light, don't rush to start. From the right, there will be a delivery boy on an electric car......
"Be careful!"
Under Conan's instructions, Wang Xingde stepped on the brakes after starting, narrowly avoided the takeaway brother, and did not collide with the tanker.
"Hoo ......"
Wang Xingde let out a sigh of relief, and the look in his eyes at Conan became a little strange.
"What do you think would have been like without my reminder?"
"If you can't dodge, you just hit the steering wheel and crash into the tanker truck, causing an explosion. An entire bus will die, and there are many more innocent people......
"Before, behind the bus that Wang Mengmeng was riding, there was a truck, but behind the truck, there was a fuel tanker."
"Could it be that she's cute—"
Wang Xingde's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Conan in disbelief, but he forgot to control his voice at this time and shouted out directly, so that Tao Yinghong, who was already suspicious, noticed the abnormality.
"Wang Xingde, what did you talk to him? What's wrong with Meng Meng?!"
"Gray Plains!!"
As soon as Wang Xingde's voice came out, Conan knew that things were bad, and hurriedly called out to Gray Yuan to let her do it in advance.
However, in the process of this competition, Tao Yinghong, who had long been in doubt
I had already put my hand on the pull ring of the pressure cooker bomb and detonated the bomb directly.
……………………………………
1:34 points.
"Damn, it's just a little bit!"
After waking up on the bus, Conan slammed the car next to him, Wang Xingde had obviously been persuaded by him, but because it took too long, Tao Yinghong's suspicion caused her to detonate the bomb in advance.
But in order to convince Wang Xingde, at least two points need to be proved: "I know the real cause of Wang Mengmeng's death" and "What I said is true". Conan did the same, using a possible car accident at 1:42 as evidence in his words.
But now it seems that it still doesn't work, this kind of proof method takes too long, and it is easy to be discovered by Tao Yinghong, who has been on alert.
But if Wang Xingde is not shown enough evidence, what method should they use to persuade him to stop?
A complete dilemma, I can't think of any good way to do it.
"When the bus arrives at the station, along Jiangdong Road Station, passengers who get off at this station should bring their luggage and belongings......
The arrival prompt of the bus sounded, interrupting the thoughts of the two, Conan and Gray Yuan Ai looked up, only to find that as they woke up in the cycle again and again, the time had advanced to 1:34 minutes, and the car had just traveled to Yanjiang East Road Station.
If they get off the train normally at this stop, Conan and Gray Yuan will be able to leave normally, escape the fate of being blown up, and may even escape this infinite loop.
However, if this cycle is the last, it will be equivalent to burying the chance of others being rescued.
"At least you can't think of a better way now, let's get out of the car first, report the information to the police, and let them take action."
"We have two other things that we haven't used, so we can take this opportunity to give them a try."
Under the persuasion of Gray Yuanwai, Conan finally nodded, followed her to get off at Yanjiang East Road Station, and at the same time sent a text message to Zhang Cheng on his mobile phone to call the police.
They described in detail the information of the car, Tao Yinghong's characteristics and location, and the appearance of the pressure cooker bomb, and also told them not to startle the snake, and it was best to solve it in a concealed way.
Less than a minute after the text message was sent, Zhang Cheng's phone was dialed back, and Conan and Gray Yuan glanced at each other and pressed the answer button.
"Long story short, can you guarantee the authenticity of the content of the police text message?"
Zhang Cheng didn't talk too much nonsense on the other end of the phone, and went straight to the core of the problem.
"I can guarantee that the location of the bomb and the person holding the bomb are in the text message. And I seem to see a countdown on her phone, and the countdown is less than ten minutes."
In order to allow the police to deploy in advance, Gray Yuan did not hesitate to lie and told them the key information about the time of the explosion.
Even if the police investigation later found that he made this information out of nothing, if he could really save everyone, then no one would ask for the bottom of it, and it would just be a coincidence.
"Ten minutes, four, hiss...... Okay, I got it. Try to keep your phone as open as possible, and we may get back to you later."
Lao Zhang repeated this point in time in a low voice, and seemed to take a slight breath.
The time is now 1:3, and they have less than 10 minutes left to deploy, which is very tight even if they can mobilize police from near the bridge.
