Chapter 5 The Lost Little Girl



Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Tiecheng stood in the train aisle, panting heavily.

When did I end up shouldering such an important mission?

This is a life-or-death mission.

He walked from the first carriage to the last, touching every passenger he encountered, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

The panel results were the same: everyone would die after three hours.

Moreover, all of them died from the same cause: a train explosion.

Jiang Tiecheng came to the conclusion that it was not a problem with just one carriage, but that the entire train had exploded.

It's no longer a matter of a dozen or so people; it could mean the death of the entire train.

We absolutely cannot stand by and watch this happen.

But what should he do?

Jiang Tiecheng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan; his biggest problem was that he didn't know the cause of the explosion.

Even if you're just asking for help, you have to give a reason.

What did he say to others?

Let's not even talk about whether others will believe him or lock him up as if he were mentally ill.

I'm afraid I'll die on this train along with them.

Jiang Tiecheng rubbed his temples in frustration. "Sorry," he thought, "in my past life, I struggled through hardship and only knew how to do business."

He doesn't have Conan's brain.

He hasn't even watched more than a few episodes of the Conan anime.

His low level of intelligence is beyond his capabilities.

Forget it, he should just ask someone for help!

Putting everything else aside, finding a train police officer is always a safe bet.

Whether the other party believes it or not, you have to ask for help at least once.

If the train police don't believe him and can't think of any other way, then he can only leave on his own when the train arrives at the station.

No wonder he refused to help when someone was dying.

Thinking of this, Jiang Tiecheng walked toward the carriage where the train attendants and police officers were stationed.

As soon as I reached the staff carriage, I saw a train police officer being stopped by a father in his forties, who was speaking anxiously.

"Police officer, please, please help me find my daughter!"

My daughter is only three years old; I turned my head and she was gone.

"Comrade, don't worry, maybe the child will go to play in other carriages?"

Our train hasn't stopped yet. Why don't you try looking in other carriages first?

The train police officer was a middle-aged man around 50 years old.

His attitude was very gentle; he truly seemed to be a model of serving the people.

“I’ve already searched everywhere, but I can’t find it anywhere. I’ve searched every carriage and every seat three times from beginning to end.”

The middle-aged man, in a moment of panic, grabbed the train police officer's hand and wouldn't let go.

"Comrade, please, please help me."

"Comrade, wait a moment, don't rush. Otherwise, tell me your seat number and go back to wait for me to look for it."

I'll let you know if there's any news.

As they were talking, they saw Jiang Tiecheng.

The train police officer asked gently,

"Comrade, what can I do for you? This is the staff carriage; unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Tiecheng hurriedly stepped forward and said,

"Officer, I..."

She had originally intended to avoid being overheard by the middle-aged man, which is why she pulled the train police officer aside.

I wanted to find a quiet, secluded spot nearby to talk.

The result was unexpected.

"The target, Wu Weiguo, number 2096, will suffer a double leg fracture after jumping out of a window in two hours and thirty-five minutes."

How could Jiang Tiecheng not be stunned?

He bumped into everyone in the entire carriage, including the train attendants.

Everyone's final fate is to die in an explosion, but the scene before us is different: jumping out of the car and breaking both legs.

This was the only person who did not die in the explosion.

Everyone on the bus died, leaving only this one survivor. Who would believe that?

And he jumped out of the car.

I jumped out of the car exactly five minutes before the explosion.

Jiang Tiecheng cannot help but be a figure of conspiracy theory.

If the explosion was caused by human intervention or mechanical failure, it's impossible for everyone on the train to have died.

If there is a car crash or rollover, some people will die and others will be injured.

But there will inevitably be survivors.

But your own data panel doesn't lie; all these people end up dying.

In other words, unless the explosion was caused by a very large, man-made explosive device, no one on the train would have survived.

If someone sabotages and installs an explosive device, then the person who installed it certainly doesn't want to lose their life along with these people.

Jumping off the train five minutes early is quite reasonable.

"Comrade, what do you want to tell me?"

Those eyes stared at the young man in front of him with suspicion.

"Comrade, I... I just wanted to tell you..."

Jiang Tiecheng's eyes darted around, trying to come up with a reasonable explanation.

"This comrade's daughter is missing, and he has already asked in several carriages."

I came here to talk about this.

"It's a big deal that the child is missing. Please help us. We must find the child."

Jiang Tiecheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, thankful for his quick thinking.

Upon hearing this, Wu Weiguo's lips curled up slightly. This guy really was a busybody.

"Comrade, comrade, thank you, thank you for helping me find the train police officer."

The middle-aged man next to him was extremely grateful and held Jiang Tiecheng's hand, thanking him repeatedly.

"Target number 986 Xu Chengming, his daughter Xu Xiaohui will be blown to pieces by a timed explosive device in two hours and forty minutes, and Xu Chengming himself will die in the train explosion."

Jiang Tiecheng's eyes widened again.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, it's nothing. When did your child go missing?"
