Chapter 152 Assassination
A large bundle of explosives was tied to the beam under the railway track with wire. Zhao Ming stood up. He seemed calm, but in fact, cold sweat on his back wet his clothes. He asked Ye Rou to go back to the car, and he asked the conductor to find pliers, and took two people to crawl under the train.
Ye Rou sat back in her chair, her body limp. She was far from being as calm as Zhao Ming thought. This was dynamite, how could Ye Rou not be afraid?
Her palms were cold from sweating, and she was filled with fear. Fortunately, she smelled it, and fortunately, Grandpa Li's words reminded her, otherwise she could not imagine how amazing the power would be if such a large bundle exploded.
Tang Panxia already knew about the gunpowder incident; it was Li Weijun who told them.
Seeing Ye Rou’s extremely pale face and red eyes.
She hugged Ye Rou and said gently, "Xiao Rou, don't be afraid. You did a good job. You saved all of us."
Zheng Zhiyuan looked at Ye Rou, anger rising in his heart. If Xiao Rou had not discovered it in time, these old guys would have died here. It didn't matter if they died, but Xiao Rou could not die.
She is still so young and her wonderful life has just begun.
Before leaving, Fan Xiangyang came to the courtyard. Instead of looking for Wang Guoping, he chatted with Zheng Zhiyuan.
Fan Xiangyang reported what happened in Changdu Town to his superiors.
After listening to his report, the leader told Fan Xiangyang the results of the handling of Cao He. Before hanging up the phone, the leader suddenly asked him to find someone in Changdu Town.
Zheng Zhiyuan, Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
Fan Xiangyang found Zheng Zhiyuan and informed him of the central government's decision to restore his position.
Zheng Zhiyuan was old, and he only wanted to bring down Li Guang's family, so he rejected Fan Xiangyang.
Now Zheng Zhiyuan changed his mind. He looked at Xiaorou seriously without hesitation.
Zhao Ming and his men returned with the bomb wrapped in clothes and the fuse removed.
This bomb needs to be ignited, so the spy must still be on the train.
He boarded the train, briefly explained that the bomb had been dismantled, and then went to the front of the train to borrow the train's landline phone to make a phone call and report the situation on the train.
The leader immediately ordered the army to surround the train and not allow anyone to leave.
——
The train is delayed.
Wang Honghong walked back with a stiff expression. Looking at Jiang Ge, whose face was ashen, she said anxiously, "It seems they were delayed by the track maintenance."
Jiang Chen crushed his cigarette and glanced at Wang Honghong coldly. He threw the cigarette away, crushed it, turned around and left the train station.
——
The people in the first-class carriage knew why the train was stopped, but those in other carriages did not.
The train stopped for too long and people were already talking about it.
The two people in the second-class carriage saw that something was wrong, looked at each other, and immediately shouted, "What's going on?"
"Why isn't the train moving?"
"My wife and children are waiting for me at home!"
Someone started shouting, and the atmosphere suddenly became heated, with more and more people starting to shout and make noise.
The conductor, noticing something was amiss, immediately stood up to calm everyone down and explained, "There's been an accident during track maintenance, and workers are on their way. Please wait a moment. We'll depart as soon as the tracks are repaired."
After hearing the conductor's explanation, everyone looked at each other, quieted down for a while, and sat back in their chairs muttering to each other.
Seeing this, the two men looked at each other and sat back in their chairs.
They bumped their heads together and whispered, "They must have discovered it."
"What now?"
"Li Ping must be killed. This is our only chance. Once he returns to the capital, there will be no chance to kill him."
"He's in the first-class carriage. Let's go to the first-class carriage."
Both of them looked at the conductor sitting next to them at the same time.
One of them stood up, holding his stomach and said, "My stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet."
The conductor hesitated for a moment, then stood up and took the man to the toilet.
——
Zhao Ming took his men off the train and stood guard to prevent the spy from jumping off the train and escaping.
Due to insufficient manpower, Zhang Yang and Duan Peng also followed Zhao Ming out of the car.
Although it is early spring, the temperature drops sharply towards evening.
Ye Rou wrapped herself in the tweed coat that Jiang Chen had sent her and waited quietly.
Suddenly, there was a sound from the partition behind her. She turned around and saw a conductor coming in.
Ye Rou withdrew her gaze.
Zhou Yuqing saw the tense atmosphere, so he stood up and said with a smile, "Is there any play you want to hear?"
"Shajiabang!"
"Okay, let's sing Sha Jia Bang!" Zhou Yuqing looked at Ye Rou and said, "Girl Ye, give me half a performance."
Ye Rou nodded, she stood up and took out the flute.
Zhou Yuqing made a gesture and sang in a deep voice: "Build a seven-star stove, boil three rivers in a copper kettle. Set up an eight-immortal table to entertain sixteen parties. All who come are guests, it all depends on your mouth. Smile when you meet..."
Ye Rou was playing the flute. She frowned slightly as she watched the conductor suddenly move behind Grandpa Zhou.
The sound of the flute continued, and Ye Rou squinted her eyes to look at the conductor who was gradually approaching.
She always felt that the conductor looked strange, and as she thought so, she saw the conductor getting closer and closer.
Ye Rou's eyes fell on his slightly longer sleeves, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide.
"We are the sons of workers and peasants, and we have come to the mountains... We must eliminate the reactionaries and change the world..."
As Zhou Yuqing's opera music became increasingly louder, the conductor suddenly pulled out a knife and pounced on Li Ping who was sitting and looking at this side.
"careful!"
Ye Rou took a step forward and subconsciously raised her flute to block the knife in the conductor's hand.
The conductor suddenly turned his head and looked at Ye Rou. He saw Ye Rou's face was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, his expression suddenly turned cold and he pounced on Ye Rou ferociously.
The flute in Ye Rou's hand was cut off by a knife.
The conductor grinned grimly upon seeing this.
Ye Rou looked at the flute broken into two pieces, became furious, and punched the man in the face.
Seeing that her fist was not even half the size of his, the conductor sneered, and just as the corner of his mouth curved, a fist hit him in the chest. He felt as if a heavy hammer of thunder had fallen, and his internal organs and ribs seemed to have been pierced.
Cheng Gang reacted and suddenly grabbed the conductor.
At this moment, another person rushed out and pounced on Liping.
Seeing this, Ye Rou followed Grandpa Li's instructions, calmed down, aimed at the man's face, and threw the flute in her hand.
The broken flute was like a sharp knife, stabbing directly into the man's eyes.
The eyeball exploded and blood splattered everywhere.
The man staggered twice, tilted his head and fell down suddenly.
Zhao Ming rushed forward with his men, and more than a dozen soldiers pounced on them and held down the two men.
"A red star on the head, red flags of revolution on both sides, red flags point out the dark clouds!"
As Zhou Yuqing finished singing the last part, the two men were taken off the train.
The army arrived and took over the two spies.
Ye Rou also followed Zhao Ming and recounted what had happened.
She performed two great merits, and after confirming that her identity was not a problem, she was let go.
Ye Rou returned to the train and just as she reached the door of the first-class carriage, she looked up and saw Jiang Chen standing next to the door!
