Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 155: Self-consistent rhetoric

As soon as Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao returned to the room on the third floor, Long Yuehong asked curiously:

"Group leader, what information did Mr. Zhang give back?"

He found that Jiang Baimian was empty-handed.

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"We have already looked through it below just now, and we didn't find anything worth paying attention to."

As she spoke, she took out the folded stack of paper from her pocket.

"Yes, yes." Shang Jianyao nodded in agreement.

Long Yuehong was disappointed for a while, and inexplicably relaxed a lot:

"There are no valuable clues..."

He looked at the stack of paper in Jiang Baimian's hand, considering whether to waste time and browse it again.

Compared with Jiang Baimian, he is inferior to his own level of care, sensitivity, and logical ability. He probably has no hope for problems that the other party can't find.

In other words, the group leader has authenticated the data without problems, and he doesn't need to waste time on it.

While Long Yuehong hesitated, Gnawa said directly:

"A wise man must make a mistake when he thinks about it. I think it's better to pass the information around."

"Yes." Bai Chen agreed.

Long Yuehong suddenly regretted it and felt that she shouldn't hesitate.

Papa, Shang Jian Yao applauded for Gnarva.

Jiang Baimian also nodded and smiled:

"I'm not a wise man. Mistakes are inevitable. Everyone sees more questions and communicates in order to effectively avoid omissions.

"This is to give full play to the collective wisdom."

If she thinks that there is no need to show the stack of materials to the team members, she won't show it at all.

Several pages of information were quickly separated and given to Bai Chen, Long Yuehong and Genawah.

With just a simple sweep, the honest Genawah raised the question:

"This is suspicious:

"Two days before the martial law, a hotel guest was stolen because of antihypertensive drugs, and his condition was violent and he was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."

"What?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

Bai Chen pursed his mouth and organized the next words:

"This is very similar to what we expected:

"The one who got the nuclear warhead was hit by a weak spot accidentally. It took two to three days to recover. He missed the opportunity to leave the city and was trapped in Wubei by martial law."

Moreover, the "Lime Hotel" is full of outsiders, which is even more suspicious.

"Yes, very keen." Jiang Baimian praised and said with a smile, "I also thought the same way when I watched it before, but on the way back, I met the hotel manager Shen. He told me and hey, the reason The hapless guy who was stolen into the hospital by pressing the medicine has not completely escaped the danger and is still receiving treatment. Such a person has no time or ability to hijack the broadcast."

"Indeed." Long Yuehong nodded.

From this perspective, the suspicion of that hapless guy can be ruled out.

Shang Jian Yao raised his hand and rubbed his chin:

"But it can't be said that he has no problems at all.

"What if he is the person in the middle link? Because he was accidentally hospitalized, the corresponding'line' was broken, which caused the hijacker who took two or three days to locate what was wrong with him, and found a way to get it back. Nuclear warheads, but the best time to leave the city has already been missed."

Jiang Baimian thought for a while and nodded lightly:

"It makes sense."

She immediately pointed to Shang Jianyao and joked:

"This is what the fool has to worry about or have something to gain."

Without giving Shang Jianyao any chance to refute, Jiang Baimian looked to the floor and said:

"That hapless guy lived in Room 214 before, have you sensed that there is human consciousness there?"

Shang Jianyao sketched out the layout of the entire building in his mind, and spent a little time confirming the location.

"No." He shook his head.

He turned to look at Jiang Baimian:

"And you?"

This refers to the result of sensing bioelectric signals.

Jiang Baimian also distinguished for a while before saying:

"no."

"It seems that that person is indeed still in the hospital." Bai Chen cast his gaze out of the not-so-lit window, "but it does not rule out the possibility that he is an intermediate link."

She turned back and looked at Jiang Baimian:

"Have you asked about the whole thing? Maybe there are some details hidden in the devil."

Jiang Baimian let out a "hmm". Since guest 214 went out for a long time that day, when he came back, he was in a bad condition. It was suspected that the antihypertensive medicine on his body was accidentally used up. He said he found that the antihypertensive medicine and many items in the room were missing. Fei, after being caught by a thief, became angry with his breath, his blood pressure was so high that he could no longer control him, and he had to be taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.

"It was true that Captain Ding asked us to keep people guarded before. It was really prescient." Long Yuehong heard it secretly.

The thief of this "great hotel" is too exaggerated, right?

The "Old Tune Team" never encountered such a thing when they first stayed in a hotel in the city.

Of course, most of the reason is that Bai Chen is considered a "local snake", and the hotels he looks for are relatively reliable, and the boss secretly controls it quite strictly.

Regarding Long Yuehong's evaluation, Jiang Baimian only corrected one point:

"Not foresight, but talk of experience."

"First City" does not have any requirements for settlement, at most it does not give you citizenship, but the benefits of citizenship in the "First City" are actually negligible, so many relic hunters use this city with the most convenient supply as a base and send you to the surrounding area. Expand out and explore the ruins. As the saying goes, rabbits don't eat grass around their nests. If they are not forced to do nothing, they may not be very likely to commit unscrupulous crimes at the "base".

On the "Salvation Army" side, although there are no requirements for settlement, the control of outsiders is quite strict. Many relic hunters often cannot supplement the materials they want, and they feel very unfree in their daily life.

In this case, when they find that they have no hope of joining the "Salvation Army," they often choose to go elsewhere and never return in the future.

Since I won't return in the future, it would be logical to take the sheep along and find opportunities to gain some benefits.

Other areas of the "Salvation Army" settlements are strictly controlled and well-ordered. These relic hunters can hardly have the opportunity. Only the "Lime Hotel" is a place where there are many outsiders, and it is inevitable that the management staff will make omissions. Anyway, their bottom line It is to prevent the chaos from leaking out and affect the full members of the "Salvation Army".

Bai Chen thought for a few seconds and said:

"I increasingly suspect that the person in room 214 is the middle link.

"He went out for so long that day, and he probably met with defectors, gave supplies, and took away nuclear warheads."

Hearing this, Shang Jianyao's eyes lit up:

"As soon as he came back from the car, he found that the antihypertensive medicine had been stolen.

"Is there a possibility that the person who held the radio station has not yet received the nuclear warhead, and that item is still hidden in the trunk of the vehicle of 214?"

"There is a certain probability." Gnawa gave the results of his own analysis.

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"Hey, go to Manager Shen, guide his thinking, and let him tell you which vehicle the guest in room 214 is.

"Wait until the night is a little bit deeper, let's check it."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao became excited.

…………

Towards the early hours of the morning, the "Old Tune Team" bypassed the hotel security staff who had become friends with Shang Jian Yao and found the vehicle of the guest in Room 214.

This is a black off-road vehicle with a modified trunk.

Although Bai Chen didn't know much about electronics, after a while, Bai Chen opened the trunk of the vehicle without Gnawa providing much help.

The alarm was not triggered.

Bread, biscuits, instant noodles, various cans, a box of bullets, and two rifles were revealed under the light of the flashlight~www.readwn.com~No..."Shang Jianyao couldn't hide his disappointment.

Although Commissioner Huang said that it was a miniaturized hydrogen bomb, in Jiang Baimian's cognition, no matter how small it is, it will not be too exaggerated, becoming only the size of a high-performance battery.

The technological breakthrough in the old world is a breakthrough, and it must not have reached that level!

Jiang Baimian felt that the nuclear warhead had to weigh one or two hundred kilograms, and it was difficult to hide items of this size in a place as big as the trunk.

While the flashlight was swiping, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong inspected the front part of the vehicle.

"No." They gave the result at the same time.

Jiang Baimian breathed out slowly:

"Well, the whole thing seems to be just a coincidence

"Go back and rest."

…………

After returning to his own small room, Jiang Baimian lay on the bed.

She closed her eyes, and while listening to Shang Jianyao's humming song, she quickly went through what happened today in her mind.

Suddenly, she felt weak.

As a "road idiot", she is not sure if she had the wrong direction and the wrong number of "doorplates" when she sensed Room 214 based on the architectural layout sketched in her mind.

It seems, probably, it may be really wrong... I sensed the opposite room... After careful identification, Jiang Baimian wanted to rub his head in embarrassment.

This is too shameful, right?

Fortunately, no one noticed.

Fortunately, she is now lying on the bed.

Since she was sure that she had made a mistake in the room, she must make up for the reconnaissance, and immediately shifted her attention.

The next second, Jiang Baimian opened his eyes brushingly.

In Room 214, there are bioelectric signals that are highly suspected of being human!
