In the old warehouse late at night, Song Lan'en finished his production. Although it has not been completed today, it is almost there. He entered the humble bathroom, turned on the water and took a cold shower.
Outside this warehouse is almost all wasteland, it is late autumn, and there are still many bugs.
The bathroom was wet and the door was not well insulated. He could hear Dai Yuansheng's snoring one after another next door.
Cold liquid flowed through his body.
Then Song Lanen looked at himself in the mirror. In the past two years, the metal collar left a circle of wear marks on his neck, his cheeks were slightly sunken, and his eyes were a bit scary. Revealing a cautious pallor.
Song Lanen looked at the stranger in the mirror, shaved off the stubble, and then twisted the hair behind his head with the knife in his hand.
Tomorrow, by tomorrow, it's all over.
Song Lanen changed into the clothes provided by Xu Shuang and came out. The woman hadn't slept yet. She folded her arms and stood motionless at the door of the warehouse, like a ghost in the middle of the night.
Song Lanen walked over and squatted beside her. He also lit a cigarette.
Xu Shuang looked at him and didn't speak, she thought it was a strange thing. Obviously they are all smoking. When Bi Shanyu smokes, she hates it to death, but when Song Lanen smokes, she finds it tolerable. You can even get a touch of numbness and comfort from the smell of smoke.
She felt a dependence on this man who had been providing them with tools to commit crimes.
He was able to give her a special sense of security because he was their kind, and he was their core, their leader.
"Are you afraid?" Song Lanen asked her suddenly.
"I'm not afraid..." Xu Shuang glanced at him and stubbornly said.
"You don't have to hide it, there's nothing to be afraid of. If you don't want to do it, after you go out tomorrow, you can go to the police, or just leave the thing wherever you want. No one says you have to do something." Song Lanen suddenly said laughingly.
Xu Shuang felt like she had been seen through, she was hesitant about what to do before, but she still said: "Don't worry, I won't go to the police, I can't do things like betraying my companions. ."
Song Lanen added: "Anyway, it's just a gift for you. There will be enough people participating tomorrow. I hope that the police are exhausted while chasing you."
Xu Shuang's eyes moved slightly: "This time, you... are you taking advantage of us?"
She heard from the man's words that they seemed to be just insignificant pawns to cover his existence.
Song Lanen said: "I still remember the first time you saw me, crying and begging me to fulfill your wishes. Everyone, they are just using each other."
Xu Shuang said, "Where are you going?"
Song Lanen put out the cigarette in his hand and walked into the warehouse: "You don't have to worry about where I'm going, I have my own purpose."
That night, Xu Shuang hardly slept much, and the bathroom was leaking a bit, and she seemed to hear some gurgles of water all the time.
The next day was a sunny day. Early in the morning, Song Lanen completed the final processing. He handed over some of the finished items to Dai Yuansheng and Bi Shanyu. The three of them went out quickly. They left those items in the morning one by one. Just set a place, waiting for someone to come and pick it up.
At twelve o'clock noon, after lunch, Song Lanen took out four things wrapped in plastic bags, and he pushed three of them out in front of the three people.
It was a black plastic bag with explosives wrapped in it that looked like a thick dictionary.
But this thing is a highly dangerous item that can cause houses to collapse, take people's lives, and destroy the originally beautiful world.
The faces of the three were never solemn.
Although they had done similar actions before, but at that time everyone received things separately, they had never acted in such a collective way.
Everyone knows very well that this is the last time.
This is their last party.
For a time, the warehouse was filled with a sense of ritual.
"This is the latest production. This time with new technology, it will be more stable and powerful. I adjusted the time of the explosion to five o'clock in the afternoon. Now the timer has started, you can see the time is still How much is left?" Song Lanen introduced, "It's the same as before, you can place them according to your own needs."
It was like a final game, Song Lanen introduced the rules.
A few hours, long enough, they can reach all the targets in this area.
The three took the heavy explosives and put them into their respective school bags.
Dai Yuansheng asked, "Is there anything else I need to pay attention to?"
Song Lanen looked at him and smiled: "I wish you success."
Dai Yuansheng said, "May we meet again here."
Xu Shuang glanced at him lazily: "No way. You should also seek more happiness for yourself."
Song Lanen looked at the time and said, "Let's go. We can go in different directions and take different means of transportation. I wish you all a happy hunting."
Bi Shanyu stepped forward, gave him a light hug, and patted his back: "GOOD LUCK."
They went out soon, Song Lanen beckoned and got into a taxi.
Dai Yuansheng walked to the bus stop, hunched his waist, got into a car, and walked away.
At this time, the dignified atmosphere had disappeared, and they walked very happily, not as if they were going to kill, but as if they were going but worried.
Bi Shanyu stood on the side of the road, took out a cigarette in a hurry, lit it and started smoking, he asked Xu Shuang next to him: "Why don't you leave?"
Xu Shuang glanced at him and smiled a little gloating: "Be careful, if this cigarette is lit with a bomb, it will save trouble."
"I'm standing beside you now, shouldn't you worry about yourself together?" Bi Shanyu looked at her, suddenly put away her usual hippie smile, and looked a little serious.
His expression made Xu Shuang a little unfamiliar. She said in a trembling voice, "Well, I'm just joking."
She finally knew why she didn't like Bi Shanyu. This man always gave her a strange feeling, a sense of danger. Make her unpredictable, not knowing what will happen, not knowing what he will say.
"You haven't killed anyone yet?" Bi Shanyu asked her, squinting and smoking a cigarette.
Xu Shuang lowered his head and did not speak.
Bi Shanyu said: "Among the four explosions you carried out, two were empty, and only two exploded in a place where there were people. The first time injured one person, the second time three people were injured, but among them No one died."
"Who told you? Song Lanen?" Xu Shuang asked softly. In the past, each of them would draw lots to decide who this time would be, but Song Lanen would only contact the person who was drawn, and the others would not know.
Every time, Song Lanen would give them an address, and they went to pick up what was put there and acted. This was the first time they met in more than two years.
She doesn't know how many times other people have participated. Although she also has estimates and pays attention to the subsequent police reports, she does not know the specific situation and figures, but this Bi Shanyu can open her mouth to tell her every action time. Speak clearly and clearly, and even see through her heart.
With the wind blowing, Xu Shuang felt a little cold. She guessed that Xie Qiu should be the one who killed the most, followed by the man in front of her.
She reminded herself that this was a murderous and dangerous man.
Bi Shanyu didn't answer her, but continued smoking a cigarette: "I guess, under normal circumstances, you can restrain your desires. The reason why you will come and participate this time is that you have been harassed by those people. Threats, lack of courage to refuse, one is because you still feel a little nostalgic for the past, and…”
He looked at her again, "Look at the ring on your right hand, now you have a new boyfriend. This time, you came here after arguing with your boyfriend, right? You are afraid that he will know what you are doing now. , while hoping he regrets..."
Xu Shuang clenched her fists and hid her right hand back. She suddenly realized that although they had known each other for a long time on the chat tool before, and they were together after meeting for the past two days, she did not know this man. But he knew her like the back of his hand.
This understanding made her have a deeper fear.
Bi Shanyu turned his head sideways and looked down: "I think you will feel a little heavy with that bomb in your hand now, right?"
"Don't worry about it!" Xu Shuang shouted, she took two steps back, regretting talking to this man.
"I'm helping you." Bi Shanyu threw the cigarette away in a hurry. He extinguished the cigarette butt with his feet and said, "I have a way to solve your problem..."
At twelve o'clock noon, in the Huadu General Bureau, the atmosphere was extremely serious, and a battle finally came to a decisive battle.
In the criminal police team, Bureau Tan is also carrying out the final mobilization: "In this operation, we may face four main criminals, and there may be about ten other idle criminals. According to our interrogation of a temporary helper found by Song Lanen According to the information, these people may carry out bomb planting in the downtown area of Huadu this afternoon."
Speaking of which, Bureau Tan's eyes swept across several elite police officers.
"So everyone must cheer up, this is an extremely critical afternoon, and you must do your best! In addition, the special police's EOD team will work with us, and everyone must be careful and pay attention to their own personalities while acting. Safety."
"Yes!"
People from all walks of life left in an orderly manner and went to investigate in the city.
In order to cooperate effectively, this time, there are two groups of people inside and outside. The command room is located in the General Bureau, responsible for various data inquiries and electronic monitoring. Su Hui and Tan Bureau stay here.
The external headquarters was located on the patrol car where Lu Junchi was, and the two parties contacted at any time, and news came one by one.
Everyone was tense, like tight strings.
In the command room, more than a dozen monitoring screens kept switching and flickering, and electronic eyes monitored every corner of the city. Various news came from time to time in the communication channel.
"Team Lu, based on Xu Shuang's purchase records, we have confirmed that their hiding place may be an old warehouse on Jinyu Road. The branch has already gone to check, and there are traces of recent life, but they have already left. Xu Shuang's car was also parked nearby and did not drive away."
"Can you tell when to leave?"
"We checked the nearby surveillance, and they have been away for about half an hour."
Only half an hour late, they pass these people...
Lu Jun said lately: "Retrieve all surveillance videos nearby, use the warehouse as the origin, check all means of transportation, and screen out the places they may reach!"
Police soon found some traces, including pulling up footage of their trip from roadside cameras.
"Song Lanen got into a taxi with the plate number H3569. We have contacted the driver. He got off near Sanqingshi, and then called another car. Dai Yuansheng got into a car..."
"Song Lanen once appeared near Yuma Road and then changed to another rental car. We are still looking for it..."
"Where are Xu Shuang and Bi Shanyu?"
"The two left on foot."
"What about the rest?"
"We are investigating and tracking the people Song Lanen contacts from the website based on the relationship network."
"Are all city landmarks in place?"
"There are many plainclothes next to the city's landmarks, and there are police dogs at key intersections to conduct investigations. EOD barrels have been added in many places in the city."
In the command room, the dialogue and keyboard sounds made people nervous.
Su Hui sat at the table with his head down, watching the images and news sent back from all over the place.
He folded his fingers, frowned slightly, and fell into contemplation.
Where will Bi Shanyu and Song Lanen choose the final location
