Gao Zhitao on his end, had already given up. With only five minutes left, even with Find your next favorite novel on NovelHub today!
Inside the shopping mall building, there were at least a thousand lives at stake. If it really exploded here, it would be an earth-shattering news worldwide.
At this moment, Gao Zhitao was not thinking about anything, just sitting quietly waiting for death to arrive.
Suddenly, a ’bang’ sound erupted.
Even though Gao Zhitao was mentally prepared to die, he couldn’t help but tremble slightly, who isn’t afraid of death?
But the sound was too small, definitely not from a bomb.
"Zhitao, are you okay?" Three people rushed in, and then carried Gao Zhitao outside.
Gao Zhitao was somewhat dazed, then he opened his eyes to see Kong Shenghui directing operations with a tense expression.
Outside, many people were around, with a thirty-meter perimeter already cordoned off. Everyone inside the mall was being transferred out nervously but orderly.
"How did you know?" Gao Zhitao asked beside Kong Shenghui, he clearly remembered that earlier, his call went through, but he didn’t speak.
"Save the chit-chat, evacuate the masses first," Kong Shenghui said urgently.
Gao Zhitao nodded, then rushed into the building first. With only a few minutes left, it was already too late.
"Come back!" Kong Shenghui shouted.
But Gao Zhitao had already rushed in, he had long been prepared to die in an explosion.
If he could come out alive, it would be by sheer luck.
There were definitely still people inside the mall who hadn’t heard, he had to rush in to notify them.
"Is there anyone, is anyone still here," Gao Zhitao shouted.
As he ran he shouted, after confirming no one was on the first floor, he directly went up to the second floor.
Upon reaching the second floor, he heard a child crying inside, crying very sadly.
"Mommy, where are you..." a little girl cried out.
Without a word, Gao Zhitao picked up the little girl and prepared to run outside. But at this moment, the clock struck twelve.
The sound was like a death knell, making Gao Zhitao shudder all over. He wasn’t afraid to die, but now there was still a child in his arms.
Without thinking more, he hurriedly ran toward the window.
At this moment, an explosion occurred suddenly on the second floor. With a loud bang, Gao Zhitao felt a wave forcefully pushing him toward the window.
Gao Zhitao’s first reaction was to protect the child.
The blast wave slammed him into the glass, shattering it, then he flew out.
People from far outside could clearly see a person being thrust out, still holding a child.
"Catch them," Kong Shenghui immediately saw, shouted, and ran there.
But they were some distance from the mall, with no time to get there.
In mid-air, Gao Zhitao was still somewhat conscious, he held the child tightly, a thought popped in his mind.
"Those damned guys definitely won’t catch him."
Sure enough, when Kong Shenghui and others arrived, Gao Zhitao had just fallen to the ground.
After the explosion on the second floor, there was a muffled sound in the basement, but the damage wasn’t severe.
"Ambulance," Kong Shenghui shouted.
Doctors and nurses had already run over, they quickly lifted Gao Zhitao into a vehicle, heading to the hospital.
"My child, my child," a woman ran over trembling all over.
The child had stopped crying, upon seeing her mother, she ran over and said, "The uncle saved me."
From afar, thousands of people witnessed this scene, some couldn’t help but shed tears, moved by Gao Zhitao’s actions, while more started applauding.
They applauded Gao Zhitao, and also applauded for these police officers.
The explosion wasn’t severe, only occurred on the second floor and in the basement. Aside from Gao Zhitao being injured, no one else was harmed.
As Gao Zhitao was placed in the ambulance, everyone automatically made way, some vehicles blocking it were collectively pushed aside, the power of the masses is enormous.
Kong Shenghui didn’t follow to the hospital but stayed to maintain order. He was still feeling a lingering fear in his heart.
Just a short time ago, he received the call from Gao Zhitao. But the call was answered without the other side speaking, just emitting a crackling sound.
He was going to hang up, but then he heard Li Kui’s voice. It turned out when Li Kui kicked away Gao Zhitao’s phone, the call was still connected, but Li Kui didn’t care.
When Kong Shenghui heard Li Kui’s words, he was so shocked he almost screamed. There was no time to think, he rushed people over here as quickly as possible.
Upon arrival, he first controlled Li Kui and the others. Then dispatched people to evacuate the masses. But at that time, he couldn’t find Gao Zhitao.
In the previous mall building incident, Kong Shenghui also participated, he knew there was a basement, he tried having it opened, and indeed found Gao Zhitao tied inside.
When Kong Shenghui hastily arrived, the police here were still in the dark, not knowing why Li Kui needed to be arrested.
Of course, Li Kui also had some credit, he had people arrest members of the Falcon Organization.
He intended to seize the chance to capture Falcon Organization members and achieve fame, taking full advantage, his plan was almost successful, failed because of that call.
Kong Shenghui stood there for ten minutes, upon realizing there was no further explosion, he then organized personnel to conduct a detailed search.
Just because there was no explosion doesn’t mean it’s safe, no one could affirm whether there were other bombs inside.
The masses stood there not leaving, only now did they understand one thing, recently at intersections there were police everywhere, turns out it was to guard against today’s incident.
Some people voluntarily went to the hospital, moved by that officer’s heroic act.
His life or death unknown, they wanted to see personally.
Kong Shenghui was commanding operations on-site, then went to the explosion site to inspect the damage.
Upon seeing the condition of the second floor, he couldn’t help but be thankful, fortunately, Gao Zhitao had been near the bedside, otherwise he would have been blown apart.
He handled matters here and then remembered Gao Mantang. Since Gao Zhitao was in the hospital again, he needed to inform Gao Mantang.
Just unsure what Gao Mantang’s reaction would be upon hearing.
Actually, he felt apprehensive about calling Gao Mantang, already sensing that Gao Mantang would surely shout at him.
When the call connected, Gao Mantang’s guard answered. There was no shouting from the other side. When told Gao Mantang was unavailable to answer, Kong Shenghui suddenly had a bad feeling...
