today's island

Lu Yuanzhe likes to arrange sleep at the right time, so he rarely dreams. Today, maybe the reclining chair is not comfortable, or he has been thinking about the case all the time, so he dreamed of a sea of ​​fire.

The flames, which were higher and bigger than the security apartment, shot straight into the sky, and the surrounding screams were connected together, as if the scene of the end.

He stood on the road in vain, watching the towering torch collapse in front of him, and he woke up suddenly when the heat wave on his face evaporated him.

Not as loud as Cheng Mo, he just opened his eyes and saw the soft warm light from the ceiling, and then the dream was thrown to the back of his mind.

Cheng Mo was looking at the various clues gathered in the phone, and when he saw that he was awake, he raised his head and moved: "Are you awake?"

"Well, how is it?" He glanced out the window.

The entire government building was silent, only their sentry box was lit in the night, and the other colleagues who were squatting in the car turned off the lights and quietly changed shifts to follow.

Cheng Mo shook his head: "The other party doesn't seem to plan to come at this time. If they want to make a big news, they probably won't come in the middle of the night."

Lu Yuanzhe opened WeChat and took a look. Not only them, but the other two buildings were also quiet.

"That's right." He nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and stretched while hugging his coat, "If they don't come all the time, it will be very hard for us to stay here for 24 hours."

"I don't think it's too late. What they want is the time of the National Day. If it's delayed until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, it will be too late for the media to collectively build momentum on the National Day." Cheng Mo analyzed.

"Yes, but what a big battle they attacked in broad daylight. There is no one in the building, but there are still vehicles and pedestrians on the road near the building." Lu Yuanzhe is most worried about innocent passers-by being involved in the case. The building can be rebuilt, and the public security situation It can be lost, but if the life is gone, it is really gone.

"But we guarded all the intersections around. No matter what he has, it is impossible to drive into this yard. There are policemen standing guard for the National Day in every traffic arteries today. How could they move with a truckload of explosives?" Cheng Mo frowned. ask.

"This is also the question I am most concerned about. I don't think the other party has air-dropped weapons. We are not going to face an opponent at the military level, right? Isn't it too arrogant to announce the time and place so blatantly? We took it away, and judging from their capital flow, there shouldn't be too many fish that slipped through the net." Lu Yuanzhe didn't quite believe that the other party could get in.

It will be dawn in a blink of an eye. If you can't get in at night, it will be even more difficult during the day. After dawn, there are even drones patrolling the sky, and it is really impossible for the other party to get in from the ground.

"Will it sneak in through the sewer?" Cheng Mo asked suddenly.

"That may underestimate the difficulty of crossing the sewer. If you are not careful, you will get lost and you may encounter other dangers." Lu Yuanzhe met a suspect who tried to escape through the sewer, and almost asked the police to rescue him. " And how many hauls of fuel and explosives would that take?"

Having been denied the last conjecture, Cheng Mo couldn't think of any more ways to sneak in, so he and he were in a daze to confirm the situation at each intersection, and didn't speak for a long time.

"Do you really think they will come? My hometown has been taken away, and there are only a few fish that escaped the net. If the young master wants to keep the green hills, you will not worry about no firewood. Are you waiting in vain?" Ling Xi I asked a question in the group.

"Wait for nothing, wait for nothing, it's best if you don't come." Lu Yuanzhe replied, he wished that the young master would just give up and sit at home, waiting for them to find out.

"They will come." Cheng Mo looked at Lu Yuanzhe, quite sure, "I think the young master is the type who would rather fail than break the appointment. Besides, as long as he is available, we have the risk of being broken through. It's not the number of people The problem is the method of sneaking in."

"That's right...it's not about the number of people, he can't get in even if there are as many people as possible." Lu Yuanzhe nodded, "It's impossible to attack by force from the beginning, either there is a clever arrangement, or..."

He paused, Cheng Mo didn't hear the second half of the sentence, looked up at him, and found that he was looking at the invitation letter he was wearing.

"Unless..." Lu Yuanzhe frowned again, and the picture in the dream finally returned from his subconscious to his surface consciousness.

"Unless the young master is not referring to this place." Cheng Mo spit out the second half of the sentence together with him, and the heartbeats of both of them sped up inexplicably.

Public Security Bureau of TO Island City: I heard that you are pretending to be me and want to fake a big earthquake in the political circles of the island city. Then I will come in person. On October [-]st, please watch a grand beacon fire. --feast

"Actually, blasting any landmark building in the island city will cause a major earthquake." Cheng Mo expressed his conjecture for him.

Lu Yuanzhe suppressed the panic in his heart. Psychology says that dreams will affect people's emotions for a day, which seems to be true.

"If I say to pay attention to the situation around the TV Tower in Daocheng, do you think my thinking is too jumpy?" Lu Yuanzhe asked.If you want to talk about the flames of war, this cuboid building really has no height.

"No." Cheng Mo shook his head, "I'll go with you, there is no difference if there are more or less of us here, Captain Ma has more experience in riot and terrorism than us."

"Let's go." Lu Yuanzhe jumped up from his seat and drove to the city center with Cheng Mo under the early morning north wind.

At eight o'clock sharp, the Daocheng TV Tower has already started selling tickets.Today is the National Day, and the island city is considered a new tourist city. Tourists from all over the world come to visit. The TV tower, like the landmark buildings in various places, will soon be crowded.

"Captain Ma, the government building has been handed over to you. We have to leave for a while. We may need you to go to other places for reinforcements later." Cheng Mo called Captain Ma, and then called the police station around the TV Tower in Daocheng, requesting assistance in the investigation.

Today is an important holiday, and there are police officers from the local police station on duty nearby, but the flow of people is huge, and it is not always possible to notice a few suspicious people who sneaked in.Besides, guarding the passage for tourists may not necessarily pay special attention to the safety of the passage for employees.

The Daocheng TV Tower, a super-tall landmark building standing in the city center for more than ten years, has different scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter.It is not the gap in natural scenery, but the changing island city is too fast.

The floors are too high, and the traffic on the road is shrunk to a few lines. At night, you can see a whole line of traffic with flashing lights, which is getting busier every year.In the past few years when Liu Wennuo was away, the changes were particularly great, as he could tell from the photos the young master sent him.

In the past two years since he came back, he has often come to see the scenery, and he often sees new things.He quite likes overlooking a city. The entire island city presents a vein like an anatomical map in front of him. These roads are like the blood vessels of the city, and each city has its own way of supplying blood.

But he didn't have time to observe today. He arranged the positions of the bombs up and down. He was really tired from walking and his legs were a little weak.

At [-]:[-], he heard the young master's voice through the headset: "They seem to have found out."

"How many people are here?" He asked in a low voice, surrounded by excited tourists, no one noticed him.

"Half?" The young master reckoned, with suspicion and nervousness in his tone for the first time.

"Half and half, let's gamble." He suggested.

"Then let's gamble." The young master agreed to his suggestion, and after a short period of anxiety, he resumed his usual ostentatious tone, "Life always needs some luck."

He was holding a binoculars, and looking down from here, he could see where the police on duty stopped.Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo just arrived and were communicating with the police standing beside the car.

He didn't bother to wait for them to enter the building, so he pressed the detonator in his hand at 8:37, which didn't fit his obsessive-compulsive time.

There was a loud bang, and the sound of the explosion almost made his eardrums bleed. As the center of the vibration, the TV tower in the island city shook violently with a much stronger amplitude than its surroundings. Part of the ceiling collapsed directly under the power of the explosives and hit the floor of the next floor .

The tourists in the whole building were shocked, some screamed, some fell to the ground, and more people chose to stand blankly.The human brain can be down for a few minutes at most when dealing with dangerous situations that have not been seen before. If there is a fire or the like, these people will die long ago.

But he didn't intend to cause a fire today. Most of the bombs were not placed around the combustibles.

The scale of the Daocheng TV Tower is much larger than their security apartment, so it cannot create the same effect as a torch, but because of its height, the smoke and dust rising rapidly is shocking enough, and this is the real beacon.

He followed the crowd and pretended to flee in a hurry, all the way down from the 99th floor to the 60th-70th floor in the hardest-hit area of ​​the explosion, and circled around a dozen times.

The ground around the blasting point collapsed almost completely, but the load-bearing was just not damaged, so the building was not in danger of collapsing for the time being.There are only entertainment and office facilities in this area, and there are no serious sightseeing areas, so not many people were injured.

However, after the explosion, there were crowds of people, and rescue was not easy. The focus was on evacuation, and no one noticed him.

He walked around the tenth floor several times, but still didn't get the answer he wanted. He finally took a look at the densely packed police downstairs, and walked up silently.

"I didn't find it." He told the young master through the headset.

"Then you lose." There was a smile on the corner of the young master's mouth, and the ending sound was raised playfully, "If you lose a bet with me, you will have to pay a very high price."

"Of course." He also smiled rarely, trying to keep his emotions calm as much as possible. At this time, it is better not to think than to think about anything.

He waited for a long time at the observation stand on the 99th floor before he finally met Lu Yuanzhe and Cheng Mo.Both of them ran up, out of breath, really embarrassing, but he was very balanced in his heart, and he also walked many floors of this building, which exhausted him.

"What are you looking for?" Lu Yuanzhe raised his gun and asked with a frown. He probably looked at the surveillance while waiting for the crowd to evacuate and found him turning around.

"Guess." He leaned on the guardrail of the watchtower, and replied lightly, without raising his hand, and he didn't care about the muzzles of their guns. He just felt that the wind temperature today is quite comfortable. It's a coastal city, and the wind is a bit too strong up.

The dozens of floors upstairs are completely deserted, which is a good place to confront each other.

"Should it be said that 'meeting for the first time' is more ceremonial, or that 'meeting at last' is more familiar?" Seeing that the other party was silent, he took the initiative to ask a question, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and there was no smile in his eyes. It was all his sense of humour.

"Just you?" Lu Yuanzhe asked with a frown.

"Who else are you looking for?" He didn't express any hesitation, and looked at Lu Yuanzhe as if chatting.

"Looking for the young master." Lu Yuanzhe replied.

He smiled noncommittally, and didn't say clearly that he was, nor did he say no.

"I didn't expect you to make such a big fuss. I thought your lair was emptied the day before yesterday." It seemed that Lu Yuanzhe didn't intend to get to the bottom of a problem with him, so he changed the subject.

"It's almost there. If the original plan is followed, at least another five or six floors will collapse." He estimated.

"You don't have to wait for us here, do you? If you want to run, you can run. It's okay to set up a timing system. Or have you left something behind and won't give up until you find it?" Cheng Mo interjected, returning to his stay on topic here.

"I suggest that you focus on the questions I am willing to answer, such as the doubts left in previous cases, what if I run out of patience?" He reminded him friendly, still not intending to answer their questions.

"Then why don't you take the initiative to tell us about the case you participated in, and see if we are willing to approve your criminal statement?" Lu Yuanzhe suggested.

"Alright." He agreed, and looked up at the monitor above his head.He knew that there were many pairs of eyes here, besides the police, there was also the young master who hacked in.

He doesn't like acting, this is the first and last time.
