C264 Mr. Nuo Beiers Explosives (2/2)
Sima Yun rushed over and grabbed Nuo Beier's hand and asked: ”You are Mr. Nuo Beier? Are you Swedish? Always engaged in explosive research? ” When he received an accurate response, Sima Yun excitedly slapped his thigh. ”Found you, finally found you. You're the one I'm looking for …” ”Tell me your address, and I'll pay you a visit!”
Nuo Beier did not have the time to care about this madman from the East. He flashed over and continued to plead with the police officer: ”Stop delaying, although that place only stores the latest type of safety explosives, but this fire is too big, who knows what kind of situation it will cause. Evacuate immediately, my Nuo Beier Corporation will compensate the citizens with their property …”
Du du du, the police officer's copper flute sounded again. This time, not even the fire brigade dared to stay behind as they followed the crowd and retreated. They had already given up all hope. After such a long time, even if Xiao Hexin had copper tendons and bones, he would probably still burn them.
”Let's go, brothers, we need to have the resolve to die while carrying this bowl of rice. Although Old Xiao did not die on the battlefield, it is not shameful for him to sacrifice his life on the battlefield!” ”He's still a man …”
Suddenly, an orphan who had been saved rushed out from the crowd. He grabbed Sima Yun's legs, and looked up and said, ”Thank you, thank you gentlemen, we will pray God to protect you, we will definitely do that …”
Sima Yun looked at the child's innocent eyes, and couldn't hold back his tears any longer.
In the end, how far they should retreat was the safe zone, and they would have to listen to Mr. Nuo Beier's orders. This famous scientist took the map from the officer's hands, and quickly began to calculate in his heart.
Mr. Nuo Beier knew better than anyone how powerful three tons of military explosive could be. Once it exploded, the entire block could probably not hold on anymore, this was a batch of explosive that was specially made for the army to destroy walls and fortresses. It was extremely powerful.
”Retreat! Everyone retreat! The entire street must be evacuated! Don't worry about the flames …”
The police officers knocked open every house and began to evacuate every citizen. There were more and more people on the street and almost all of them chose to retreat in the direction of the grape fields in the east.
Just as the emergency evacuations began on the surface and just when everyone was certain that Xiao Hexin had died, this hero was anxiously drawing a diagram below the ground.
”This is an orphanage, it's a rectangle, right... This was the warehouse district, and there were a total of three cellars connected to each other … And then there are the numerous barrels I saw just now. That's the wine cellar at the winery, right? ”
”Yes, sir. Have you forgotten? In the bakery and butcher's shop in the southwest corner, there are also two exits that lead to the ground …”
Amidst the chattering of the children, including the cries of the French spy, this small underground maze was formed. Xiao Hexin had thought that he could find a way out, but it was only now that he understood that this so-called maze was actually a sealed area. Besides the six entrances that led to the surface, there was simply no other way out.
”That damned bastard …” Xiao Hexin slapped the spy hard, causing him to scream in pain.
”We have no hope. We're all going to die here. All the tunnels are on fire and have been sealed off. Don't even think about it …” This nasty spy was going to make his tongue hurt before he died.
”Shut up!” Xiao Hexin reached out and took his chin off the hook, ”Children, don't be afraid, I have a way to save you, believe me …”
The reality proved that mathematics and geometry were very useful. Now that Xiao Hexin's brain was working at a high speed, using his memories to compare the distance between the surface buildings and the underground maze, he quickly determined the region.
”Children, I'll tie up this bad guy who set the fire. You guys take care of him. Uncle, I'll be back soon. I've already thought of a way …”
Carrying the explosives, Xiao Hexin ran towards the southwest direction of the underground maze. He ran to the end of the cellar in the bakery and at the most corner, he began to place the explosives, ”God bless! Buddha bless! Old Lord Taishang bless! God bless! ”No matter what deities they are, please come and bless me so that I won't make any mistakes in my calculations. Please bless me that the main street is above my head, but it can't be a fire site ah …”
”Lord Xiao, I still want to work hard for you for a few more years. You have to protect me too. This is where I put all the explosives. I'll take this gamble …”
The long fuse dragged for a full ten metres. When Xiao Hexin ignited the fuse, he didn't dare to hesitate and ran back as he yelled, ”Children … Cover your ears... Open your mouth... ”
The brave and smart Ma Li was the first one to understand these words with a Chinese accent. She quickly shouted at the girls, ”Cover your ears, open your mouth, we're about to explode …”
Sixty odd young friends squeezed into the corner like frightened chickens, waiting for the explosion to come. Just as Xiao Hexin pounced on them like an old hen and protected his children with his back, a booming sound came from the southwest.
Then the blast rolled in, and a plume of black smoke rushed into the cellar and enveloped all the children.
