s."When Du Qing saw this post, she was momentarily stunned. The pretty girlfriend of that scoundrel indeed had a significant background. She originally wanted to attack Xia Tian in the thread but seei...Volume 1 Chapter 479: Bomb

Lu Minsheng was startled and turned to look, only to find Xia Tian sitting in the back seat of the car without him noticing.

"Young man, I have important business. I don't have time to play around with you. Get out!" Lu Minsheng shouted angrily; it was a critical moment for someone to cause trouble!

However, Xia Tian was even more displeased. He glared at Lu Minsheng: "Who said I'm playing around Do you agree or not! I'm already giving you face! If I weren't in such a hurry to find a wife, I would've beaten you up already!"

"Young man, I don't have time for this now!" Lu Minsheng was indeed very angry but he was anxious about reaching the supermarket and did not want to waste any more time over Xia Tian. He decided just to ignore him; as a district chief, could he possibly be afraid of someone like Xia Tian

With that thought in mind, Lu Minsheng pressed on the accelerator, speeding out of police headquarters. The situation was urgent and at this point, he didn't care about calling anyone else for help either. He had just reported to Gu Zitian from the Anti-Terrorism Center, and he trusted Gu Zitian would have arranged enough manpower, requiring only his on-site command.

A few minutes later, Luo Minsheng arrived across from Marvow Supermarket. A man in his thirties of medium build rushed over upon seeing Luo Minsheng; this was Gu Zitian, the head of the Anti-Terrorism Team II at the municipal bureau’s Anti-Terrorism Center, who had recently led his team to capture a batch of terrorists before they could carry out their planned attacks.

"What's going on" Luo Minsheng hurriedly asked upon getting off the car and then frowned after glancing across the street. "Why are there so many people in the supermarket"

"Director, the supermarket is running a Mid-Autumn Festival promotion today, which happens to be the last day of it; that's why it’s crowded," Gu Zitian explained before giving Luo Minsheng an update on the case. "Today's terrorist was one of those who escaped last time. He called me directly and said he has a bomb strapped to his body and is inside the supermarket right now. With so many people in there, if he detonates that bomb, it will cause massive casualties!"

"Is there just one person on their side" Luo Minsheng asked.

"So far we haven’t spotted anyone else," Gu Zitian nodded his head. "But these terrorists are extremely vicious and fearless; they even use suicide bombers now, which makes them quite hard to deal with!"

"Has he made any demands" Luo Minsheng asked again.

Gu Zitian shook his head: "Director, he just wants to talk to you on the phone. I think he has some conditions but considers me too low-level to discuss them with."

Looking at the time, Gu Zitian added, "Director, the hostage-takers will call again in three minutes. What should we do now"

Lu Minsheng glanced at the crowded supermarket and looked very serious: "Can we be sure that the terrorists are inside the supermarket"

"Yes, Director. Our technical team has roughly pinpointed their location within the supermarket." Gu Zitian nodded.

"This is troublesome; there are too many people inside to find him and evacuate them safely. If we try to evacuate, it will definitely attract his attention. Once he sets off the bomb, countless casualties would result," Lu Minsheng said solemnly. "In reality, with such a large crowd, the terrorists don't even need an actual bomb; someone just needs to shout 'there's a bomb' and panic can ensue, leading to severe stampedes if the crowd loses control. Currently, it seems our only option is to wait for the terrorist’s call and see what demands he makes."

Right as Lu Minsheng finished speaking, Xia Tian's voice suddenly rang out from nearby: "Hey old man, can't you handle these terrorists If you just promise to help me find a wife, I'll sort this whole thing out right away for you."

Upon hearing this, the anti-terror team members, including Gu Zitian, turned to look at Xia Tian, feeling puzzled. Who is this person How dare he speak to the Chief like that

However, since they saw Xia Tian get out of Luo Minsheng's car, they dared not say anything; who knows what relationship this person has with the Chief.

But Luo Minsheng was truly enraged. He turned and glared at Xia Tian, shouting sternly, "Are you still causing a scene If you continue, I will have someone arrest you immediately!"

"Hey, who's causing a scene" Xia Tian was unhappy. "You just asked me to help find a wife for you; why are you being so naggy I'm even willing to help kill that terrorist for you—what else do you want Do you want money Just say it directly if you need payment; as long as you can find my wife, I don't mind paying."

"Preposterous!" Luo Minsheng was thoroughly infuriated and waved his hand. "Arrest him first!"

Gu Zitian was slightly taken aback for a moment—so this person has no connection with the Chief

"Old man, don't you deserve a beating" Summer glared at Lu Minsheng不滿地瞪著羅民生，“Why do you guys have to get beaten before you'll help me with anything”

"Shut up! Is this how you talk to the Chief" Gu Zitian barked. At that moment, he was already convinced that this guy had no connection to the chief; otherwise, how could he say such things

"Don't bother me!" Summer shot a glance at Gu Zitian and said threateningly, “Or I’ll beat you up!”

"You…" Gu Zitian was momentarily amused by her audacity. Beat him up Nobody had ever dared to do that to him!

Just as he intended to teach Summer a lesson, his phone rang at that moment. It was the terrorist's number. Gu Zitian immediately became extremely nervous.

"You two, put handcuffs on him first!" Gu Zitian waved his hand and quickly answered the call.

"Mr. Guxi Tian, has your bureau chief arrived" a sinister voice came through the phone, "Tell him to pick up the phone right away!"

"Wait a moment." Gu Xi Tian quickly passed the phone to Luo Minsheng.

Luo Minsheng took the phone: "I am Luo Minsheng, the chief of Beijing City Bureau. What do you want to say"

"Chief Luo, my demands are simple - release all my brothers and provide us with a helicopter, or else I will let everyone in this supermarket go up to see God!" The terrorist swiftly presented his conditions.

"Don't act rashly. I can agree to your terms but I need time for preparations..." Luo Minsheng was cut off before he could finish speaking by the other party.

"Chief Luo, don't play tricks with me. You have half an hour. If I do not see a helicopter and my brothers within this timeframe, I will detonate the bomb!" The terrorist sounded impatient, "I'll call again in ten minutes..."le over, then pulled the blanket to wrap them together. Next, they suddenly flew up at an extremely fast speed out of the lounge and left Haijiang Tower; a few minutes later, they appeared in Ye Mengy...
