Chapter 629 - 286: Preparing to Retreat
Among them, there was a young man who looked particularly familiar to Gu Ji.
He seemed to be He Shun from a university in Ningzhou.
"Look up, are you He Shun?"
"I..." He Shun kept his head down, mumbling and not daring to speak, seemingly unwilling to leave with the police.
Has he been brainwashed by the Bai Family, suffering from Stockholm syndrome?
Or has he been threatened physically...
Gu Ji frowned slightly, finger prepped on the trigger, carefully observing the young man close to He Shun while calling for backup: "Gao Bo, Monk..."
And just at the moment he spoke.
The short-haired young man behind He Shun suddenly erupted, grabbing the hostage and standing up, the blade in his hand pressed against He Shun’s neck. Among the crowd, two other young men and women also rushed out, lunging towards the rifles in the hands of Gu Ji and Zhang Wenjun respectively.
"Get down!"
"Bang!"
Zhang Wenjun shouted violently, and Gu Ji, already prepared to react, shot down the lunging Bai Family thug with one shot, causing the crowd to scream "Ah!" and flee in panic again, while another thug was taken down by Liu Weijun who came from behind.
"Drop the knife!"
"Get the hell away from me! Or I’ll kill him with one slash!"
"Woo woo woo, don’t kill my brother!"
He Shun was so frightened his face turned pale, desperately pleading.
Gu Ji raised the muzzle, attempting to aim at the short-haired thug, but due to their close proximity, there was a risk of accidentally injuring the hostage, so he glanced at Zhang Wenjun’s position.
The latter immediately understood.
The two cooperated, slowly forcing the thug away from the wall.
Until the moment the back was exposed, "Bang," Zhou Yang, who secretly circled to the side, finished him with a shot.
"Phew... Confirmed killed!"
"Stand guard!"
Gu Ji lifted the collapsed He Shun from the ground, "Are you okay? Do you know the locations of the other kidnapped Xia Kingdom tourists?"
"I, I only remember Zhang..."
"Me! I was kidnapped from Thailand!"
"And me! Are you really here to rescue us and bring us home?"
He Shun’s face was splattered with the blood from the thugs, shivering and unable to speak for a long while, so before he finished, two people in the previously fleeing crowd raised their hands voluntarily.
"Gao Bo, confirm identities!"
"Yes!"
Gao Bo and Liu Weijun examined them quickly, "Facial features match the targets, they are Wu Ke Wen and Le Song."
"Zhang Shanshan is still missing, has anyone seen her?"
"Zhang, Zhang Shanshan has always been with Mr. Yang." In a state of constant panic, He Shun finally gritted his teeth and finished a sentence.
"Mr. Yang?" Gao Bo questioned.
The first response in Gu Ji’s mind was Yang Chen, "Where is he now?"
"Before the power cut, Mr. Yang said he was going to the finance office for some business and took Zhang Shanshan with him. That old pervert must intend to harm Shanshan, please, officers, you must save her."
Following the direction pointed by the hostages.
Gu Ji noticed a closed door at the end of the office corridor.
Zhao Hua spoke up at this moment: "When Wu Kang and I were checking the floor for dangers, we did find the door to that finance office locked from the inside, Grade A security door, double lock structure, possibly with a sky hook."
According to "General Technical Conditions for Security Doors", a Grade A security door has the highest security level.
As required, the lock points of a Grade A door should not be less than 12, and it should resist forced opening for at least 30 minutes, with the door body using steel plates of at least 2mm thickness, not to mention the lock cylinder.
"Double lock structure, with a sky hook, a shotgun can’t break it, we need a hydraulic spreader."
Gao Bo, long trained in various door-breaking techniques, knew well that such security doors were extremely difficult to breach unless using various electric and hydraulic door-breaking tools, or explosives for breaching.
"How long will it take?"
"It depends on the specific situation, but finance office doors are usually custom-made, with enhanced steel thickness and lock points. I estimate at least seven or eight minutes, even longer."
Facing Zhang Wenjun’s inquiry, Gao Bo had already reached the door, dismantling the breaching tool pack.
"8 minutes is too slow, the Myanmar Police Force outside can’t hold for long." Gu Ji glanced at the internal watch on his wrist, suddenly remembering something, "Monk, bring me that suicide vest!"
"You want to use a bomb to breach the door?"
Zhang Wenjun’s eyelids twitched.
Although explosive breaching is extremely efficient, it is also the least safe, not only requiring the proper placement of explosives and precise charge amounts, but also requiring rich experience and advanced skills from the breacher.
Otherwise, the door might open, but the building could collapse.
Especially with hostages behind the door, an injury would mean mission failure.
"That’s a good idea." Gao Bo’s eyes lit up, quickly saying, "When Gu Ji and I were at the police training base, we specifically trained in explosive breaching, Gu Ji is very professional in this field."
"Report to command center..."
"I have only one request, ensure the safety of the hostages!"
Zhang Wenjun dared not make a casual decision, just as he was about to request the command center, Lei Wanshan’s cold voice resounded in everyone’s tactical headset.
Wu Kang watched Gu Ji’s back with surprise, not expecting him to have such a talent.
Be aware that demolition is a highly sophisticated science, otherwise, the military and police departments wouldn’t specifically establish EOD specialist and bomb disposal units.
Zhao Hua squinted slightly.
It was only now that he realized why, whether during the Jinbang training attack or when the suicide vest was found on the fourth floor just now, Gu Ji could always be the first to spot explosive devices at critical moments. It turns out he had long mastered in-depth knowledge of explosives.
