Chapter 259: Chapter 259 – Ruthless

Chapter 259 – Ruthless

Outside of the office building.

The time to the timebomb going off is getting closer.

Xiang Daofa was standing there quietly, and sweat is pouring down on Cao Xupeng’s face. He did not expect things to turn out this way. Once Mayor Xie is killed, Yan Tai County will become the focus of the whole nation. None of the County leaders can bear the negativity from this incident. They had let an escaped convict enter their County, held the Mayor hostage, and strapped a timebomb on her. All the County leaders have to bear the responsibility. Not only Xiang Daofa, Cao Xupeng, Huang Li, and the rest of the leaders will be implicated.

Forty seconds remaining.

39 seconds…

38 seconds…

Hu Silian covered her mouth and burst into tears.

“Mayor Xie!” Two Police Officers and some residents were sobbing. These two officers were the ones protecting Xie Huilan and got into a standoff with the fugitive. The few residents were held hostage Wu Daguang initially. If Xie Huilan ignored them and ran for cover, they will be killed. But Xie Huilan protected them and offered herself to be hostage to buy time for them to run!

25 seconds…

24 seconds…

Liang Chengpeng shouted. “Where is Chief Dong? Why is he not out yet?”

An officer replied. “The office door is locked, and Chief Dong said that he would be coming out soon.”

“Soon?! The bomb is about to go off! Where is he?”

Liang Chengpeng, and everyone at the scene, were puzzled by Dong Xuebing’s actions. Even the Bomb Disposal Squad cannot do anything to the bomb, yet Dong Xuebing ran inside. Is he seeking death? What’s the point of going in? Only Huang Li knew about Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan’s relationship and knew why Xiao Dong ignored his safety to go in!

But everything is too late now!

There are only around 10 seconds before the bomb goes off. No one can save them!

“Mayor Xie!”

“Chief Dong!”

5 seconds…

4 seconds….

No one said a word, and the time seems to have stopped. Many people had closed their eyes, waiting for the explosion.

3 seconds…

2 seconds….

1 second…

It’s the time!

That’s it! They are gone…

Everyone closed their eyes, and some covered their eyes. A few people are still sobbing.

But after waiting for a few seconds, there was no explosion!

What’s wrong? The time on the timebomb should be up.

Xiang Daofa, Cao Xupeng, and the rest looked at each other. No one can understand what happened. Is the explosion too small for them to notice, and only Mayor Xie is killed? Could it be that the door is closed, and they can’t hear the blast? This should not be, as the Bomb Disposal experts will not make the wrong judgment. The blast should reach the entrance of the building!

Liang Chengpeng looked at the two Bomb Disposal experts in shock. “Why didn’t the bomb go off?”

The Bomb Disposal experts were also shocked. “It shouldn’t be. Did we remember the wrong timing?”

Bam! Crash!

A loud sound was heard from the office building!

Everyone jumped and took a step back. They were afraid of the blast wave! However, it was not an explosion, let alone blast wave. Nothing happened. The sound they heard is the sound of someone trying to break down the door. Who is trying to break down the door?

Very soon, all of them knew the answer!

Tuk… tuk… tuk… it was the sound of footsteps from the building. Everyone looked over, and their jaws dropped. The glass door of the building is pushed open from inside. A woman in a ladies’ suit walked out. Her hair is pinned up and wore black high heels. She is someone who should not appear. She is Xie Huilan!

Hu Silian cried. “Mayor Xie! You… Are you alright?!”

The next moment, Dong Xuebing walked out of the building and smiled at everyone.

“Chief Dong! You are also, alright?!”

Damn! What the hell is going on?

The eyes of everyone at the scene nearly popped out of their sockets. They were expecting the bomb to go off and were sure that Mayor Xie and Chief Dong would be killed. But in the end, these two people walked out unscathed!

Xie Huilan only said one sentence. “Chief Dong had defused the bomb.”

Ahhh?! Everyone was stunned.

The bomb is defused! Chief Dong had defused the bomb himself?!

Not only the surrounding residents, even Liang Chengpeng, Xiang Daofa, and the rest of the leaders felt it was impossible! Although the two Bomb Disposal experts were not highly skilled, they are professionals when dealing with explosives. They don’t even dare to touch the bomb, and Dong Xuebing manages to defuse it by himself? Are you joking with me? But Xie Huilan is the Mayor of the County, and she will not joke about this. Furthermore, both were standing in front of everyone, unharmed!

The bomb is defused!

Chief Dong had defused the bomb!

Dong Xuebing replied modestly. “I am quite lucky today, and managed to cut all the wires in the bomb without setting it off.”

Dong Xuebing’s casual reply shocked everyone!

The two Bomb Disposal experts felt this is a slap to their faces! You just pick the wires at random and cut them without letting the bomb goes off?! F**k! Even if you are lucky, there should be a limit to your luck! Do you think you are cutting green beans?! That is a goddamn bomb! It is a timebomb!

The two Bomb Disposal experts were afraid the bomb might still go off, and quickly asked. “Chief Dong, how did you cut the wires? Did the timer on the bomb stop?”

Dong Xuebing recalled and said. “I cut the third, fourth, fifth and sixth wires, and then cut a metallic string. After that, I cut the first, second, ninth, and twelve blue wires, followed by another metallic string. Errr… I cannot remember the rest, but I also broke two metal connectors and cut the remaining two blue wires together, before the timer stop. After that, I cut the red wire, and the LCD screen goes off. I think the bomb should have stopped. It is still inside, and I don’t dare to touch it.”

Other people do not understand the importance of Dong Xuebing’s actions and felt he is picking the wires randomly.

But those two Bomb Disposal experts knew what was going on.

The older Bomb Disposal expert was in a daze and exclaimed. “You cut the third to sixth wires at the start? Based on the way the wires are positioned, those four wires should be the ‘safety wires’ and must be cut before you can proceed on with the rest of the wires. But the person who made this bomb had disguised the wires, and we can only determine the third wire can be cut. How… how did you know the fourth, fifth, and sixth wires are also ‘safety wires’?”

The other Bomb Disposal expert added. “The copper connector is also critical, and can only be removed after a blue wire, and a metallic string is cut. If you made a mistake, the bomb would go off immediately. You… you just break it off like this?”

“Also, why did you cut the remaining two blue wires together?”

Dong Xuebing does not know the reasons behind all these. “Didn’t I say I was lucky?”

Everyone at the scene heard their conversations and realized that Chief Xiao Dong had cut the wires in the right sequence!

But many people do not think it is based on luck. Who are you trying to fool?! There are more than a dozen wires and components in the bomb! How can a layman get all the sequences right by luck?! The probability of this happening is less than 1%! Guess?! Can you show me how did you guess it right?!

The two Bomb Disposal experts only had one thought in their minds. This man is an expert!

The number of Bomb Disposal experts in the country is limited. Much time and resources are required to train them, and Yan Tai County can’t have anyone trained to be stationed there. The two Bomb Disposal experts were not even considered real professionals. They had only spent two years in the explosive unit and trained with ‘dummy’ bombs and had only seen a few real bombs. However, they still have a strong understanding of bombs and do not believe Chief Dong had defused the bomb because of luck. They felt Chief Dong is trying to hide his capabilities!

At this moment, everyone looked at Dong Xuebing differently.

Dong Xuebing’s marksmanship is extraordinary, skilled in fighting, know about hacking, and can even defuse a complicated time bomb easily!

WTF! Is he even considered a human?!

After this incident, everyone had a better understanding of Dong Xuebing. Every single government servant in Yan Tai County will know Dong Xuebing’s name. Dong Xuebing had singlehandedly entered the office building, defused the bomb and saved the Mayor. This is an outstanding achievement!

The danger is over, and Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan towards the Police cordon, which was a few hundred meters away. They were only halfway out of the cordon.

Dong Xuebing was relieved that they had managed to survive. It was a close shave!

Xie Huilan had a smile on her face.

But suddenly, something unexpected happened!

Boom! The office building exploded! A shock wave and heat blew across the cordoned area!

In an instant, the windows of the building were shattered, and glass shards were sent flying in all directions! Crash! The crowd was still a distance from the building and was not hurt. But a glass shard pierced Dong Xuebing’s left leg! Dong Xuebing shouted in pain as he fell to the ground! Xie Huilan’s smile froze on her face as she fell! The back of her head and back were covered with glass shards! She had died on the spot!

“Sister Xie!” Dong Xuebing screamed!

“Mayor Xie!”

“Arh!!”

Dong Xuebing had not expected the bomb to go off after he had saved Xie Huilan!

Wu Daguang! I will f**king kill you!

BACK 5 seconds!

The scene in front of Dong Xuebing flashed!

Dong Xuebing still had a relieved look on his face and was walking with Xie Huilan towards the rest of the leaders.

The moment Dong Xuebing regained his senses, he pounced onto Xie Huilan to the floor. “Get down!”

Before the rest of the people can react, there was a loud explosion!

“Mayor Xie!”

“Chief Dong!”

It was a loud blast! Countless glass shards flew out of the building!

Everyone’s heart stopped beating as they tried to avoid getting hurt from the glass shards!

After a while, Dong Xuebing, who had covered Xie Huilan with his body, lifts his head. His back was covered with dirt and glass shards. The Bomb Disposal experts were right. This bomb is too powerful, and the impact shattered the windows, and every glass shard is as sharp as a dagger. Even Dong Xuebing’s shoes were pierced through. Luckily, they barely escaped death again. Dong Xuebing got up. “Mayor Xie! Are you all alright? Are you hurt?”

Xie Huilan coughed a few times and replied. “I’m fine.”

Dong Xuebing lost all his strength after he heard Xie Huilan’s reply. “Great! You are safe…”

The officers from the Public Security Bureau quickly ran over to help Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing to safety. It was too shocking moments ago!

The Bomb Disposal Expert’s face turned pale. “It’s detonated remotely! Wu Daguang is holding on to the detonator!”

The other expert shouted. “This detonator can only work within a certain distance! He is nearby!”

When Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan were in the office, the bomb had exploded countless times, killing both of them. During those times, Dong Xuebing could not see Xie Huilan’s face as she was killed. But this time, the image of Sister Xie dying is imprinted in his mind. He is furious!

Wu Daguang!

If I don’t kill you, I will change my name!

Dong Xuebing shouted: “Search every goddamn household and find that bastard now!”

The officers from the Public Security Bureau had already acted. Liang Chengpeng was also furious. He picked up his phone and called the Provincial Public Security Bureau to request for more manpower. They must get Wu Daguang at all costs!

One minute passed…

Five minutes passed…

Suddenly, someone shouted into the radio set. “We found Wu Daguang’s location! He is at Ren Ming North Road! He had carjacked a Chevrolet and is heading towards the North!”

Liang Chengpeng ordered. “Stop him!”

“The criminal is too fast! We are unable to catch up!”

Dong Xuebing’s face changed. BACK five minutes!

Time returned!

The radio set is very noisy.

“Where is he? Try searching at South road!”

“Any news from West road?”

“Nothing yet!”

Dong Xuebing does not have much BACK left. Five minutes is the best he can do, and he estimates to have around 30 seconds left. Without saying a word, Dong Xuebing opened the driver door of the nearest Police car. “Get out!”

The driver was stunned, and was dragged out of the car by Dong Xuebing!

“Chief Dong, what are you doing?”

Dong Xuebing did not reply and sped towards North road!

The location mentioned over the radio was only a few hundred meters away. Dong Xuebing does not have enough time and did not head to the place where Wu Daguang carjacked the Chevrolet. Instead, he made a detour to where Wu Daguang will be headed. He sounded the horn, overtake cars, and even ran a red light!

One hundred meters…

Two hundred meters…

When Dong Xuebing was turning out from a junction, he saw a Chevrolet speeding towards the junction with two police cars behind him!

It’s that Chevrolet!

Wu Daguang is looking terrible. His brother was killed, and he had returned for revenge. He managed to hold the Mayor hostage and planted a timebomb. Everything was going smoothly. He did not detonate the bomb immediately because he does not want to be killed. The timebomb will give him enough time to escape. Even if the timebomb fails, he can still use the remote detonator to detonate it. But everything did not go according to his plan. The bomb did not go off when the time was up!

When Wu Daguang realized it, he immediately pressed the detonator and tried to escape.

Damn! The explosion did not kill that woman!

Wu Daguang looked at the two police cars hot on his pursuit and cursed. Suddenly, he saw another police car at the junction in front. He smiled coldly and drove head-on towards the police car in front. He knows if he turns or avoids the police car in front, he will not escape. So, he decided to pretend that he is willing to perish together with the police in front and force the officer to avoid him! This way, the chances of him escaping will be higher!

Wu Daguang stepped on the accelerator and laughed coldly. “I don’t believe you will not give way to me!”

But to Wu Daguang’s surprise, the police car in front of him had no intentions of giving way to him, and is speeding head-on towards him!

Wu Daguang does not believe that the officer is not afraid of dying. At this moment, it is a challenge of guts!

Both cars were getting closer and closer!

20 meters!

10 meters!

6 meters!

Wu Daguang panicked, as the driver of the police car, is not afraid of dying! He quickly swerves to avoid a collision!

But it was too late!

Dong Xuebing was already blinded by anger. When he saw Wu Daguang swerving to avoid him, he also turned the steering wheel towards Wu Daguang!

Crash!!!

Dong Xuebing’s police car crashed into the side of the Chevrolet, and a loud bang was heard!

The airbags of both cars were deployed!

Wu Daguang could not believe what he saw. Half of his body was covered in blood, and he fainted one second later! Dong Xuebing was also injured from the crash. When he saw Wu Daguang had no chance of escaping, he closed his eyes slowly and lost consciousness!

The two police cars stopped.

The officers got out and saw Chief Dong in the driver seat of that police car!

Yes. Other than Chief Dong, no other officers in Public Security will have the guts to crash cars head-on with a criminal!

This is Chief Dong!

Ruthless!
