Shan Yue heaved a sigh of relief. After her speed clearly increased, she also felt much more relieved. At least, she could definitely dismantle the rest within the time limit set on the bomb.
“President Shan, there’s something wrong here. I’ve already searched the entire warehouse, but I can’t find the location of the fourth bomb.”
Chang Ling was a little anxious. Even his words were a little flustered. “Is there a possibility that Lang Nan was still guarding against us disarming all the bombs, so he didn’t place the fourth bomb in the warehouse at all and hid it elsewhere?”
“That’s absolutely impossible. The sub-bombs can also sense each other. Once any of them escape the detection of the sub-bombs, all five of them will explode at the same time.”
Shan Yue’s attitude was firm as she replied with certainty, “Don’t worry for now. We still have enough time. I’ll dismantle the third one now. The fourth one must be in a corner of this warehouse. Go and carefully search again.”
“Understood, President Shan.”
With that, Shan Yue moved to the side of the third bomb and began to dismantle it. Chang Ling flipped through all the places in the warehouse that he had seen or not seen.
Unsurprisingly, no matter how carefully he searched, he still could not find any traces of the fourth bomb.
At the same time, the bodyguard in charge of surveillance received a message from Lang Nan. “How’s the progress on your side? Shan Yue has left the Federation venue for a long time. Hasn’t she entered the warehouse yet?”
“Not yet, Brother Lang. Ever since you left the provincial department, I’ve been paying attention to the situation in the warehouse. I didn’t find anything unusual.”
The bodyguard quickly replied. After all, from his point of view, the warehouse was as calm as ever. “Not to mention Shan Yue coming to save her brother, even the little boy in the warehouse is not awake yet.”
This abnormal situation really attracted Lang Nan’s attention. After all, he had seen Shan Yue walk out of the venue with his own eyes. According to Shan Yue’s usual actions, it was a little abnormal that she had yet to react.
However, he could only care about the situation in the venue now. It was too late to do anything about the warehouse. He could only place all his hopes on the bodyguards guarding it.
“From now on, you have to be 120% focused. Shan Yue must have been sufficiently prepared after holding it in for so long. She will definitely take action next.”
Lang Nan frowned slightly and replied to the bodyguard’s message. “As soon as we discover them, detonate the bomb immediately. We can’t let them return here alive.”
“Don’t worry, Deputy Governor Lang. 1 can still handle the small matter of pressing the detonator.” The bodyguard was full of confidence. “I wish you all the best.”
After the two of them ended the contact, Lang Nan returned to his confrontation with Zhou Xuan. He did not know that it was the bodyguard’s confident answer that made him lower his guard, nor did he know that Shan Yue had already defused three bombs.
“I’m done here. Have you still not found the fourth one?”
“I’m sorry, President Shan. I’m useless. I’ve already searched every place in the warehouse carefully. There’s no sign of the fourth bomb at all.”
Chang Ling blamed himself very much. If it caused a huge disaster because he could not find the last one and could not save Shan Chen, that would be his lifelong regret.
Shan Yue naturally believed Chang Ling’s words. After all, he had been by her side for a long time. His personality and meticulousness could not be questioned.
Chang Ling continued, “President Shan, why don’t you take a look again? 1 might have missed it.”
“There’s no need. If 1 don’t even trust you this much, I won’t let you work by my side. Since you can’t find it even after searching twice, then I would find nothing as well.”
Shan Yue stood in the middle of the warehouse. As she looked around at the places where she could hide things, she replied to Chang Ling, “Calm down. There must be something else we both ignored..”
