"Don't worry!
Since Shen Ting dared to take action, he must be very confident in successfully defusing the bomb.
Relax!
Inside the mine, Zheng Yuanqiao said calmly.
Lin Guorui was so nervous that he wanted to report the situation to the investigation department and ask them to persuade Shen Ting.
However, he reconsidered.
The situation here is being broadcast live, and the investigation department is definitely paying attention.
Since they didn't call, it means they also support Shen Ting's actions.
Moreover, the entire investigation of this case was entirely handled by Shen Ting.
What surprised Lin Guorui even more was that it wasn't just Zheng Yuanqiao who remained very calm.
Even the members of the Shen Ting special task force remained calm.
They all seemed to trust Shen Ting completely.
Even though Shen Ting had never demonstrated any talent in bomb disposal before, they absolutely believed he could succeed now that he was going to do it.
As the captain of the armed police, Lin Guorui naturally knew this.
This kind of trust cannot be easily cultivated.
Absolute ability, absolute correctness, and perfect results.
Shen Ting must have demonstrated these three qualities through countless hardships to earn everyone's trust.
...
Soon, the bomb suit was on.
Xu Xinyi also had someone help her put on the bomb suit:
"Shen Ting, let me help you!"
Shen Ting glanced at her, wanting to refuse, but seeing that she was already wearing the bomb suit, he nodded in agreement.
He does need familiar people around him to help him.
Shen Ting dismissed all irrelevant people from the mine, while he led Xu Xinyi, along with the crew-cut and split-haired bomb disposal officers, to the bomb.
"First, use an X-ray machine to confirm the specific composition of the three layers of the bomb sandwich shell: the inner, middle, and outer layers."
Shen Ting calmly spoke:
"Also, the location and type of the level inside the bomb."
"no problem!"
The two bomb disposal police officers standing guard were already ready.
The one with the parted hair carefully moved a portable X-ray machine, aimed its probe at the bomb, and began a detailed scan.
The instrument emitted a very faint hum, and a black, white, and gray perspective view began to slowly form on the screen.
The operation lasted for a moment, with the armed police officers, who had split up, keeping a close eye on the screens, quickly reporting back:
"The outermost metal layer appears as a uniform medium gray area in X-ray images."
The structure is continuous, with no obvious signs of welding or splicing.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, another armed police officer with a crew cut, holding a portable spectrometer, completed a rapid analysis of the outermost metal layer.
He glanced at the readings and said in a deep voice, "Based on the spectrometer's identification results."
The outer metal element composition is iron, chromium, and nickel, in proportions consistent with the characteristics of 304 stainless steel.
It's a common sandwich liner material, but it's processed with very high precision.
The armed police officers, their fingers pointing outwards, lightly tapped the control panel of the X-ray machine, adjusting the scanning depth and focus.
He quickly spoke:
"The middle insulating layer of the sandwich shell appears as a dark gray that is close to black in X-rays."
The material density is significantly lower than that of the outer metal layer, and its absorption of X-rays is very weak.
Based on the distribution pattern and grayscale values, the insulation layer is preliminarily determined to be composed mainly of lightweight elements. Considering common bomb structures, it is speculated to be an alumina ceramic insulation layer.
His speech was uninterrupted, but a hint of nervousness was clearly audible:
"The innermost metal layer is very bright white under X-rays."
The grayscale values show that its density is higher than that of the outer stainless steel layer.
Based on the material's X-ray absorption characteristics, it is preliminarily suspected to be oxygen-free pure copper.
The armed police officers, splitting up, took a deep breath and continued scanning the inside of the bomb, quickly identifying an area.
"Based on the internal structure of the bomb as revealed by X-ray scanning."
To the left of the bomb is a sealed cavity containing a movable, high-density liquid.
In the image, the high-density liquid appears as an abnormally bright white mass.
It stands in stark contrast to the darker-colored electronic components, wires, and explosive fillers around it.
The cavity structure is regular, and there appear to be electrode contacts at both ends.
Based on all the above, this is a level.
Judging from the brightness and shape of the liquid under X-ray, it is a high-density metallic liquid.
It can be basically determined that it is a mercury level.
Shen Ting nodded slightly, not surprised by the result.
Mercury conducts electricity and is sensitive to tilting.
The difficulty of handling this is relatively much higher.
In particular, the level now needs to be processed through the sandwich shell.
"Prepare liquid nitrogen!"
Shen Tingdao:
"Next, freeze the level to solidify the mercury and temporarily deprive it of its fluidity."
This reduces the level's sensitivity to vibration.
Two bomb disposal police officers responded immediately and quickly retrieved a small liquid nitrogen dewar canister and related spraying equipment that had been prepared beforehand.
The faces of the two men, hidden beneath their heavy protective shields, appeared even more tense.
Previous instrument testing and spectral analysis were all part of the preliminary preparation and intelligence gathering.
It's about the skill of "seeing"!
Now is the time to truly "take action" and make substantial interventions in this bomb.
Even the smallest mistake can lead to irreparable consequences.
Shen Ting took the first specially made cryogenic nozzle that Xu Xinyi handed over.
His gaze lingered on the X-ray real-time imaging screen beside him for two seconds.
The exact location of the mercury cavity inside the bomb has been confirmed.
Then, stabilize your arm, aim the nozzle at the left side of the bomb casing, and pull the trigger.
