Bai Ye hung up the phone, then put on a pizza shop hat and walked towards the Investigation Bureau.
"Pizza delivery!"
Arriving at the entrance, Bai Ye smiled, patted the insulated bag on his back, and swaggered into the Investigation Bureau.
Such lax security?
Of course!
If most of the people in the Investigation Bureau weren't deadwood, how could the City of Sin be the City of Sin?
A decaying and broken city wouldn't be so just because of the number of criminals.
Bai Ye quickly entered the Investigation Bureau, and as he walked down the corridor, he took out a pizza box and put it in the trash can. Then, humming a tune, he walked through the corridor and up the stairs.
...
Gordon sat at his desk, flipping through case files, when the phone rang again.
"Hello?"
"Director Gordon, it's me again..." Bai Ye said with a smile, "Are you sure you don't want to do as I say?"
Gordon frowned, "Who are you? What do you want? Are you one of the biker gang members?"
The six criminals he was asked to release were all members of the biker gang.
Bai Ye said, "That's not important. What you need to decide is whether to release them or not."
Gordon took a deep breath, "I've said it before, we won't bow to evil forces."
"That's truly regrettable," Bai Ye said. "You will pay the price for it!"
BOOM!
Almost the moment Bai Ye finished speaking, Gordon heard the sound of an explosion, and then the entire Investigation Bureau seemed to tremble violently.
In the corridor, a blazing fireball suddenly exploded, and a violent shockwave spread outwards!
A woman who had just walked by was engulfed in flames before she had a chance to react.
Layers of air waves pushed outwards, sending people flying and crashing to the ground.
Countless pieces of paper flew and burned in the corridor.
"My leg, my leg!"
"Ah, save me, please save me!"
...
Screams of agony quickly rang out as those near the corridor entrance, affected by the explosion, wailed continuously.
Gordon stared blankly for a moment, then quickly rushed out of his office, looking at the crowded people and the moaning individuals.
"Ambulance!" Gordon roared loudly, "Are you all stupid? What are you standing there for? Call for an ambulance, quickly!"
After shouting, Gordon angrily ran back to his office and roared, "You scoundrel, do you know what you're doing? You dare to bomb the Investigation Bureau?"
Although the City of Sin was crazy, this was the Investigation Bureau!
No criminal had ever been audacious enough to plant a bomb in the Investigation Bureau!
What was even more ironic was how did the person manage to do it? How could they bring a bomb into the Investigation Bureau!
Bai Ye smiled and said, "Don't be so agitated. This is just a small welcome gift, Director Gordon. Are you going to release those six criminals now?"
Gordon gritted his teeth, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Bai Ye said, "Director Gordon, I have more than one bomb on me."
Gordon gasped, "I warn you..."
"No, you don't need to warn me," Bai Ye said. "I don't want you to release those six guys anymore. I have a new condition. Within thirty minutes, those six criminals must be shot, otherwise, I will detonate another bomb."
Gordon was stunned, "What did you say?"
Wasn't this guy an accomplice of those criminals? Why would he want them shot?
"I said, within thirty minutes, all six criminals must be shot, otherwise, I will detonate another bomb," Bai Ye said with a smile. "Director Gordon, I don't think this is a difficult task. Those six guys are scum. The evidence you've already found is enough to put them in prison for ten to eight years, and for the things you haven't found evidence for? Believe me, those guys are scumbags who deserve to be shot seven or eight times."
"That's still not acceptable!" Gordon said sternly, "The law will judge them."
Bai Ye said, "You mean you won't agree?"
Gordon said, "I will not agree to such an absurd request."
"I don't think so," Bai Ye said. "Director Gordon, do you know what human nature is?"
Gordon frowned, "Huh?"
Bai Ye said, "Human nature is that you yourself are the most important at any time, and this includes those who pretend to be righteous. They always portray everything as beautiful, but when it comes to themselves, everything becomes dark. Therefore, people can only trust themselves."
Gordon said, "What exactly do you want to say?"
"It seems you didn't understand what I meant," Bai Ye said with a smile. "It's okay, I will show you what human nature is!"
"Hello, hello, can everyone hear me?"
Gordon was surprised and put down the receiver. Bai Ye's voice echoed in his ears, but it wasn't from the other end of the phone, but from the Investigation Bureau's broadcast.
"My name is Bai Ye, and you can also call me the Mad Bomber. The explosion just now was just a small gift I gave you all, and it's only a token of my good intentions. There are more exciting and explosive gifts waiting for you all. Yes, that's right, I have planted bombs in various places within the Investigation Bureau, and I can detonate those bombs at any time, turning this place into a graveyard."
"My request is very simple: shoot the six biker gang criminals imprisoned in the Investigation Bureau. Unfortunately, your Director Gordon does not agree to my terms. I truly don't understand, are the lives of six scum more important than the lives of all the agents working hard to maintain peace in the city?"
"So, I'm going to give everyone a chance. The deadline I've set with Director Gordon is thirty minutes. Hmm, let me see, there are twenty-three minutes left. If those six criminals are still alive after twenty-three minutes, I will detonate all the bombs in the Investigation Bureau. I guarantee, this place will become hell then..."
BOOM!
Before Bai Ye's words had even finished, the sound of an explosion rang out again at the entrance of the Investigation Bureau, directly blowing up the main gate. A large amount of rubble fell, sealing the entrance.
Two men who had just run near the entrance looked up in terror, and were instantly crushed by the falling rocks.
Bright red blood soon flowed from the cracks in the stones.
Black smoke swirled, and flames raged.
"This is just a small warning..." a voice like a devil's echoed again. "Because I forgot to tell you, if anyone attempts to leave this place before the game ends, I will also detonate all the bombs immediately, turning this place into ashes in an instant!"
"Now, let's begin. Make your choice: kill six criminals, or bury yourselves here. I look forward to you giving me an interesting result."
