Captain Zhou's face stiffened for a moment, then he said helplessly, "Shi Heyu, step forward!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Shi and Yu walked out from behind.
"You have five minutes. Can you solve this?"
Shi Heyu quickly calculated the time in his mind and shouted, "Yes!"
"Okay! Go quickly."
"Yes, Captain!"
Shi Heyu strode toward the restroom at the back gate of the research institute.
Captain Zhou didn't notice anything amiss. After giving some more instructions to the remaining five people, he turned and left.
However, Shi Heyu, who had just been pale and trembling, turned around and seemed like a completely different person. His face was cold and hard, and he no longer looked unwell at all.
He gripped his gun tightly, stopped in front of the toilet, and then turned and walked to the window.
Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the window is the ventilation window at the end of the corridor, allowing direct sunlight to stream in.
...
Su Miaoyan was completely unaware that danger was quietly approaching.
She pondered the names of the two metals, but just as the words were about to come out, she changed them to a more euphemistic way of saying them.
“Professor Xue, these two metals are very similar to two radioactive substances I’ve seen before.”
Shen Mingzhi immediately raised his hand.
Professor Xue's eyes lit up with surprise. He paced back and forth, his joy overflowing. "Yes, yes, yes, that's right... that's right! It's radioactive material, and this kind of radioactive material is very dangerous..."
Su Miaoyan nodded. Radioactive materials are indeed dangerous, but their danger is insidious.
In other words, it gradually causes harm to the human body over time.
A few brief encounters won't be very effective.
Therefore, Su Miaoyan and the others did not wear special protective suits.
At this moment, Shen Mingzhi also walked from Song Zhenzhu's side to Su Miaoyan's side.
Noticing the person approaching, Su Miaoyan frowned slightly, but did not leave.
From the very beginning, for reasons she didn't know, she felt an inexplicable aversion to Professor Shen.
I even think she looks a bit like someone else.
Furthermore, the space emitted a "beep" alarm sound the instant he approached.
It was exactly the same as what I heard on the train back then.
Su Miaoyan didn't pay much attention. She subconsciously assumed that the alarm in the space was being triggered by the dismantled explosives.
She asked, "Professor Xue, did you think of something based on the word 'radioactivity'?"
Professor Xue stopped in his tracks, his eyes sharp. "No."
Su Miaoyan: "..."
Lu Ting: "..."
At this moment, Lu Ting also said softly, "Wife, do you know that these two metals are radioactive materials? Do you know their names?"
Once you know that, things will be much easier.
The key point is that the metal appears to have been fitted with a special material that the testing machine cannot detect; it can only be guessed at by the naked eye.
Yes, that's right, it's just a guess.
At this time, information technology is not advanced. Although the Xinjiang Military Region's research institute is a key protected object of the Xinjiang Military Region, it is not considered that important to the whole country.
Even insignificant.
All the truly important research institutes are located in Yenching.
After all, Yanjing was the true capital of China and the center of political, economic, and cultural exchange for the entire country.
Su Miaoyan hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "I should...know."
Professor Xue jumped up and immediately walked up to Su Miaoyan, his voice trembling with excitement, "Little Su, tell me, do you know?"
Su Miaoyan nodded.
But somehow, the beeping sound kept ringing in my ears.
She walked to Lu Ting's side, sandwiched between Song Zhenzhu and Lu Ting, and tried to get as close to the explosives as possible.
Just when she thought the beeping sound in her ears would become even more piercing than before, the beeping sound actually disappeared.
What's going on?
Su Miaoyan was bewildered.
But in just a few seconds, she realized that the beeping sound was not coming from the space to the explosives.
Instead... something else.
Could it be that the research institute has explosives?
Su Miaoyan thought it was impossible. The research institute needed to go through layers of approval to enter, and Professor Xue was a researcher. How could he not know if there were explosives in the laboratory?
After Su Miaoyan nodded, everyone watched her every move. When they saw her staring at the explosives, they exchanged glances and said nothing more.
Everyone assumed that Su Miaoyan was making further confirmation.
Shen Mingzhi, however, couldn't wait that long!
As agreed, Shi and Yu only had five minutes.
I glanced at my watch and realized there were only two minutes left until 3:05!
If we dawdle any longer, it will be too late!
He spoke up at the opportune moment: "Comrade Su, could you please state your guess so that our professionals can confirm it?"
Regardless of what kind of overseas education this capitalist's daughter had received, Shen Mingzhi only cared about one outcome.
In other words, does she know the exact names of these two metals?
Su Miaoyan glanced at him in surprise, as if her train of thought had been interrupted, and walked to his side.
Then, just when Shen Mingzhi thought she was going to walk back to her original position, she unexpectedly took another step back and walked back.
Shen Mingzhi was very puzzled.
But Su Miaoyan was certain of one thing.
At first, she only had doubts and thought her guess was wrong, but now it seems that it may have been the right choice.
The beeping sound coming from the space was from Professor Shen Mingzhi in front of us!
Su Miaoyan pondered, could it be that Professor Shen has some special metal on him?
However, what came from the space was an alarm.
Instead of detecting excited sounds and alerts related to a class of assets.
Could it be...?
Does Professor Shen have explosives on him?
Su Miaoyan's mind raced, and recalling what Shen Mingzhi had just said, she felt a sense of danger.
Could this Professor Shen be in cahoots with Wang Guifen?
Once the idea popped into my head, it took root in my mind like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and I couldn't shake it off.
But what if he really did have explosives on him...?
Why not just detonate the explosives when she arrives?
Su Miaoyan glanced at Shen Mingzhi and smiled. "Professor Shen, I'm not sure yet. To verify if my guess is correct, could you please leave for a moment? I'd like to observe this alone here."
"Of course, you don't need to think I would have any ulterior motives towards the explosives. After all, I was the only one inside when this happened, so I will definitely be the one to take responsibility for what happened. No one would be so stupid as to take the blame for something so obvious."
Before Shen Mingzhi could speak, Professor Xue spoke first.
He said softly, "Xiao Su, don't worry, none of us here would doubt you like that."
