Chapter 129 The Last One

Du Desheng had just finished speaking when Du Qichang immediately stood up with a smile on his face. "We are all family, and the situation is urgent, so I won't say anything polite. Bi Xiao came to attend your birthday party that day, and she immediately returned to the bureau after her leave, and she told her colleagues in the bureau everything you told her."

"After that, we started an emergency investigation in all the major shopping malls in City B. However, there were many shopping malls that met the requirements in City B, and we didn't have much information. After a week of hard work, we still screened out nine shopping malls that were suspected to be the crime scene. That's why I thought of coming here in person and asking this kid to help me take a look. Maybe he can give me some more accurate information to help us confirm the location of the mall."

Duanrao was a little surprised to hear him say that.

[No, it's such a big deal, and you guys just believe it? Aren't you afraid that I'm a charlatan? ]

Du Anrao's expression was very easy to understand. Even though Du Qichang couldn't hear what she was thinking, he could tell what she was thinking.

"Don't be nervous. I don't mean any harm. In our line of work, we meet a lot of people every day. We know there are many talented people in this world. We don't have any prejudice against people like you. We naturally know what to believe and what not to believe."

"Besides, for something this big, even if it's fake, we have to be fully prepared. It's better to be deceived and waste more effort than to have something really happen and innocent people lose their lives."

Du Qichang spoke with great righteousness, and Du Anrao initially felt that he was too shallow to judge others by his own standards.

But her intuition told her that this man was not as righteous as he seemed, and his name was also very familiar, so after listening to his words, Du Anrao decisively turned to the plot, and then found out...

[Shit, it's actually him. The Du Qichang who was designed to be kicked out of the battle quickly in the early stage of the plot, but miraculously survived to the end and successfully became a member of the family property division and was burned to death? ]

As soon as this comment came out, the looks people gave him became subtle.

Du Qichang: “???”

It is not that bad to say that Du Qichang is a greedy, cunning, worldly-wise, and good at dealing with people. He seems easy to talk to and helps everyone, but in fact, he has never been open-hearted to anyone. To put it bluntly, he is a fence-sitter who goes with the flow. Anyone will be his friend as long as it can bring him benefits.

[Although this guy has no bottom line, he can always see through the wind direction in advance and jump off the ship accurately before it sinks. His vision is very experienced. No wonder he was able to survive until the end. Speaking of why he was kicked out in the beginning, it seems that...]

Duanrao's inner voice suddenly stopped, causing everyone to subconsciously turn their heads and look at her.

As a result, I found that her face was pale and her eyes were wide open with shock and fear.

"An An, what's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"

Duan Rao tried hard to calm down and said in a hoarse voice: "I did learn from this person..."

"Uncle, I am a few years younger than your father, so I am your uncle, An An."

"I do see something in this cousin's face that I haven't seen before. Mom, what day is it today?"

"Today is the 1st, December 1st."

【Ahhhh, that's right, it's today! The sensational B City major criminal explosion happened right in Du Qichang's jurisdiction. The case caused heavy casualties, and as the main person in charge, he naturally couldn't escape responsibility. After the incident, he was dismissed, and was therefore regarded as a discarded pawn by other competitors and kicked out of the battle for the time being.】

This matter was only briefly mentioned in the plot, so it's no wonder Duan Rao didn't notice it before.

But now we know that the person in front of us is Du Bixiao's boss, and when describing Du Qichang's misstep, the author deliberately arranged for one of his competitors to add insult to injury, running up to him and mocking him, and in order to step on him, he even mentioned the victims who went to rescue him at that time.

The most eye-catching sentence is: "I heard that one of the people who was killed happened to have the same surname as you, and he was still very young, less than 30 years old. Maybe he is your relative. What a pity."

Duanrao didn't think much about it when he saw it at the time, but now when he put it together, he realized that this was definitely talking about Du Bixiao!

Everyone in the Du family was shocked to learn that today was the day of the explosion predicted at Du Anrao's birthday party.

Especially at that time, Duan Rao had specifically mentioned that the explosion occurred at around 2:39 in the afternoon, and now...

Everyone turned their heads to look at the clock not far away. It was already... almost one o'clock!

In other words, the explosion will happen in more than an hour!

Realizing this, Duanrao stood up, and the others followed suit subconsciously.

"This is an emergency. I'll call my cousin first." Du Anrao said, turning to look at Du Qichang, "My cousin should be in City B now, right?"

"Yes, yes, she is in the investigation team now."

"Okay." After getting the definite answer, Du Anrao quickly dialed Du Bixiao's number.

Du Bixiao seldom answers personal calls at work, but she is concerned about Du Anrao's situation and has been paying attention to it during this period, so she was able to answer Du Anrao's call as soon as possible.

"An'an?"

"Cousin, this is an emergency. Please write down what I am going to say next. It is Jiangyu Square. The explosion took place at Jiangyu Square."

"Jiangyu Plaza?!" Du Bixiao was surprised.

Although Jiangyu Plaza was also within their initial plan, it was the first to be excluded because the plaza targets high-income groups, adopts a membership admission system, and has the most comprehensive security among all shopping malls.

In such a situation, it is much more difficult to bring dangerous goods into the mall than in other shopping malls. Who would have thought that the most unlikely thing is actually the target they have been looking for.

"Is it really Jiangyu Plaza?!" Du Bixiao took a deep breath, "Okay, I'll mobilize people over there right away."

"Cousin, hurry up. Today is the day he will take action."

"Today?" Du Bixiao was shocked again, "Doesn't that mean..."

"Yes, there is not much time left. I suspect he has already installed the bomb in the mall and is hiding in the dark looking for a good opportunity to take hostages, so you must act quickly. There are a total of seven time bombs in the mall, two at the main entrance, one in the underground supermarket, one in the cinema hall on the fifth floor, one at the emergency exit on the second floor, and one in the bathroom on the third floor. I'm not sure if it's the men's bathroom or the women's bathroom, so you have to check it out yourself."

Du Bixiao tried hard to write down every word Du Anrao said, and found that the places where these bombs were installed were very critical, either escape intersections or places where people gathered. Just a calculation...

“It seems there is one more.”

"Yes, the last bomb..." Duan Rao took a deep breath, "is on him."
