Chapter 387 Lin Siqiao's Enrollment
The group hurried to the balcony. The square was in chaos. All the businesses around had pulled down their rolling shutters, and the apartment building to the east had been surrounded by police.
Obviously, Lin Siqiao made the right bet this time.
The gunshots lasted for more than ten minutes and then gradually stopped. After a while, the phone in the living room rang.
Just when everyone thought that the other party had no chance of escaping this time, Inspector Smith gave everyone an unexpected answer.
That man was indeed the small boss who had escaped before, but unfortunately, he took the young couple in Room 306 hostage.
In addition, he placed improvised bombs in several places in the apartment building, and the police department could do nothing about him. They could only give him a car as he requested.
"Don't worry, our people have been following us. We can take him down today no matter what."
Inspector Smith said this with great certainty, but Lin Siqiao just listened.
The other party had hostages and explosives on them. Considering the safety of the hostages, the police did not dare to act rashly.
Thinking about it again, this person was able to return to London in such a short time and was able to find out his detailed information. Lin Siqiao would never believe that he had no accomplice.
Therefore, Lin Siqiao no longer had any hope of catching him.
Sure enough, two hours later, news came again from the police department that their people were following well, but suddenly a truck appeared at the intersection.
By the time they found the car, the man was long gone, and the young couple in the car were dead.
Because of this incident, the city of London was once again under martial law.
Considering that there was a bomb nearby, Secretary Jin did not dare to delay and quickly asked someone to take Lin Siqiao's luggage downstairs.
When I went downstairs, I ran into Inspector Smith.
Secretary Jin walked forward and chatted for a few words, and at this time several fully armed bomb disposal experts came out of the corridor.
Inspector Smith asked hurriedly, "How is it, have all the bombs been defused?"
One of them nodded and said that all of them had been dismantled, but they were all duds.
"He may have just started to use this technology and his skills are not mature yet. Fortunately, it was discovered early. If he was given another week, the whole building would be in danger."
Inspector Smith was terrified after hearing what he said, but Lin Siqiao noticed at this moment that the two policemen following behind him were holding a bottle of medicine in their hands.
According to the description on the medicine bottle, it should be used to treat myasthenia gravis.
"Inspector Smith, has this man been injured in the arm before?"
Detective Smith nodded. "Yes, he was shot four times before, mostly in the shoulder and arm."
Speaking of this, the police officer next to him also reacted.
Not only did this man not fire many shots from beginning to end, but his bullets also did not hit anyone.
They were originally wondering, is this the level of mercenaries?
Until they found several training pistols and target shooting tools in the room.
"Inspector, this man seems to have lost the ability to use his hands."
In other words, the man’s current physical condition might not even allow him to hold a gun steadily.
What else did Lin Siqiao not understand after hearing this? She couldn’t figure it out before and wondered if this man was sick?
Under normal circumstances, he already knew his address and could just pick up a gun and shoot himself, so why make things so complicated?
Therefore, it’s not that he doesn’t want to shoot himself, but he simply doesn’t have the ability to do so at the moment.
Fortunately, the police caught him off guard today. If he had been given another half month, he might have been able to make the bomb.
Now that things have gotten so serious, I think Fang can't just ignore it.
After all, Secretary Jin had already brought this man's behavior to the opposite side of the police department that morning.
Inspector Smith also knew the seriousness of the matter. He was too embarrassed to make any more promises and just said.
"We've let him get away twice. If he gets away a third time, I won't be a detective anymore."
"Secretary Jin, that's it for now. I'll let you know if there's any progress."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After everyone left, Secretary Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go too."
On the way, Secretary Jin handed Lin Siqiao the living expenses for the next three months in one lump sum and gave her several instructions.
Although the man's hand was injured, he would still be a hidden danger if he was not caught.
Lin Siqiao nodded, she knew what was going on.
It was already past two forty in the afternoon when we arrived in Cambridgeshire.
As soon as they got off the car, the tutor in charge of receiving exchange students came over and introduced herself. Her name was Jenny.
Secretary Jin felt relieved when she saw that there was someone specially assigned to receive these new students.
"Then we'll leave first. You can just go to school and attend classes with peace of mind during this time. We'll contact you if there's any situation."
Lin Siqiao waved his hand and asked them to drive slower on the road.
After their car disappeared, Jenny led Lin Siqiao inside.
"By the way, Lin, do you have an English name?"
Chinese is hard to pronounce for many people, so whether they are Chinese, Japanese or Korean, they all have English names, which makes it easier for them to communicate with each other.
Lin Siqiao thought for a moment and said, "Then just call me."
Translated it means Joanna. Her name is Qiao and she is from Ann City. Nothing could be more suitable than this.
Jenny also felt that the name suited her very well. After giving Lin Siqiao a campus map, the two chatted as they walked.
Upon learning that Lin Siqiao had already chosen the college of her choice, Jenny covered her forehead and said with a headache.
", your choice is very good, but I'm in big trouble next."
"Ah?" Lin Siqiao was confused.
But she soon understood why Teacher Jenny said that just now. It turned out that the competition among these colleges of Cambridge University was also quite fierce privately, a bit like the "Bulk Jiangsu" of later generations.
Every year when the enrollment period comes, it is the time for the various colleges to compete with each other in private.
Originally, exchange students were not within their scope of competition, especially Chinese students, because of their poor foundation and the deliberate suppression by Western media.
Therefore, the major universities around the world actually look down on international students from China.
Unexpectedly, after the teachers who went to China to participate in the interview came back, they said that this trip gave them a big surprise.
Among them are the Vice-President of Trinity College and the Dean of Academic Affairs of King's College.
The two had been arguing for more than a week over which college Lin Siqiao should enter, but unexpectedly, St. John's College got there first.
These three colleges have never gotten along well, and the leaders always fight when they get together.
Jenny was having a headache about how to deal with the situation later.
As a result, I saw the three responsible persons rushing towards me with their big white teeth showing.
