June 28, 2451 AD, the new capital of the Eastern Kingdom

The blue sky is dotted with a few delicate clouds, forming a refreshing scenery. It seems to be another peaceful day.

"Boom...! Boom...!"

Along with several loud noises, an explosion occurred in an abandoned warehouse in the western suburbs.

At the same time, explosions also occurred at a luxury villa in the southern suburbs and a mechanized and unmanned factory in the northern suburbs.

In an instant, billowing black smoke rose from the explosion point, causing chaos around...

Dongguk Shinto Police Headquarters, Crime Prevention and Investigation Division 1 Office

The alarm suddenly sounded, and the red warning light flashed.

John Gao, chief of Pre-Search Section 1, took out his work mobile phone to check the crime warning information.

At the same time, the large screen in the office also displays the location of potential criminals and the crime warning index.

"Look! The crime index exceeds 100 points!"

A police officer closest to the big screen said loudly in surprise.

"What?! The crime index has exceeded 100?" Another police officer who rushed near the big screen said with the same shock: "If it exceeds 100, it means that there may be criminal cases involving mass deaths and injuries!"

"Section Chief! This is a big case!"

All the police officers in the office gathered together as if facing an enemy, waiting for John Gao's instructions.

Through his mobile phone, John Gao also learned about the crime warning information. He suddenly stood up and said in a solemn and unquestionable tone: "Everyone sets off immediately! Go to the crime warning area!"

"Yes! Section Chief!"

The dozen or so police officers in the office immediately stood up straight and responded uniformly.

"Inform all those who are out to investigate the case in Pre-Search Section 1, as long as there is no life-threatening matter, they must gather there!"

As he spoke, John Gao pointed to the location on the big screen, which was a private clinic located in a prosperous area.

Everyone in Pre-Search Section 1 rushed to the location given by the crime warning as quickly as possible.

"Surround this place immediately!"

John Gao, who got off the police car, led his team towards the door of the clinic and gave instructions to his subordinates.

The well-trained police officers with clear division of labor immediately separated several people and ran in different directions, preparing to surround the private clinic to prevent potential criminals from escaping.

In order not to irritate potential criminals, police officers usually hide their true identities during investigations to confirm the identity of potential criminals and conduct surveillance to ensure that possible crimes can be stopped in a timely manner.

Before he could reach the door, John Gao slowed down slightly and lowered his voice to the police officer beside him: "Lao Li! You and I enter the clinic together to conduct a secret investigation. The others will guard the entire clinic."

Suzuki Ye is a senior crime architect of the Pre-Search Section 1. The two have been cooperating since John Gao was an ordinary investigator, and they are a tacit partner.

Everyone is in their places, John Gao and Suzuki Ye are preparing to enter the clinic to investigate.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" A police officer hurriedly separated from the police officers blocking Gao John and reported to Gao John quickly: "Section Chief! Three incidents occurred simultaneously in the west, south and north of the city.

There was an explosion! People from the local police station have rushed to the scene, but the specific situation is still unknown!"

"What?!" John Gao stared at the visitor in disbelief, "You said there have been three explosions?!"

"Sure enough, it was a mass death and mass injury incident!" Su Fang, the deputy standing next to Gao John, quickly analyzed: "According to the crime warning index, the murderer of the three bombings must be in this clinic!"

Suzuki Ye also analyzed: "It seems that he is a highly intelligent criminal who can delay the crime warning to this extent!"

John Gao was furious and said through gritted teeth: "The prisoners in the clinic are no longer potential criminals. We need to control everyone in the clinic immediately! Everyone must be on high alert. If necessary, extraordinary measures can be taken against current suspects!"

When everyone heard this, they all nodded slightly in tacit agreement, indicating that they understood what John Gao meant. At the same time, they all took out the stun guns around their waists to check and entered a state of preparation for war.

"Set off!"

Seeing that everyone was ready, John Gao waved his hand and took the lead towards the clinic.

"Boom...! Boom...!"

Just as the pre-search team from Section 1 were about to rush into the clinic, explosions suddenly occurred on the roofs of several nearby houses.

Everyone subconsciously protected their heads, and some reacted quickly and fell directly to the ground.

After several consecutive explosions, everyone looked for sound and saw billowing black smoke rising from the tops of three buildings.

John Gao and his subordinates were all stunned, truly feeling the horror of those explosions.

When everyone was at a loss, John Gao's cell phone suddenly rang. He looked at his cell phone and found that it was a call from the police headquarters, and quickly answered the call: "Hello?!"

"Chief John! We received a call. Someone claimed that if we broke into the German-American Clinic or someone escaped from the clinic, he would immediately detonate a bomb in the German-American Clinic!"

Hearing this, John Gao felt a stabbing pain in his head. He looked up at the signboard on the roof of the building. It was the words Demei Clinic. He immediately felt the difficulty of the case and asked the person on the other end of the phone: "Got it!"

We will not enter the clinic rashly, did the other party make any request?"

"No requests have been made yet!"

"Okay! I will seal off the entire clinic."

"The Technical Bureau has sent negotiators to your place!"

"receive!"

John Gao hung up the phone and immediately ordered to his subordinates: "Seal down the entire clinic! No one can enter or leave without my order!"

As soon as John Gao finished speaking, two people walked out of the clinic.

Several police officers cleverly blocked the way of the two men and at the same time took out their powerful stun guns and pointed them at them.

When the two saw this formation, they subconsciously raised their hands above their heads.

One of the more courageous people timidly asked: "We... just heard... the sound just now... come out... and take a look!"

John Gao took out his ID and put it in front of the two of them, and said seriously: "It has been confirmed by the super artificial intelligence that there is currently a criminal hiding in this clinic. No one in the clinic can leave now. Please go back now!"

"

"Is... a potential criminal?!"

"I'm a good person! I'm just here to see a doctor!"

When the two heard this, they said with embarrassed expressions.

"To be precise, he should be an active criminal!"

John Gao looked at the black smoke that was already billowing in several places.

"What? Current criminals! Then we can't go back! We will be killed!"

"I won't go back! I won't go back!"

The two begged and shouted.

John Gao ignored the two men and guessed that the criminal must be planning to take the people in the clinic as hostages. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to act according to the criminal's request without knowing the identity of the prisoner.

Upon seeing this, several police officers immediately stepped forward and pushed the two people into the clinic, and locked the door of the clinic. At the same time, others also blocked all other exits of the clinic...

Inside the German and American Clinic

The two people who were driven back cried sadly and informed the people inside the clinic about the situation outside.

"Ah! What should we do?! We won't be killed!"

The beautiful nurse at the front desk turned pale and shouted.

"What's going on with these policemen!" Another old woman shouted angrily: "Why are we locked up with criminals! I want to get out! I want to get out now."

While talking, the old woman stood up involuntarily and started to walk out the door.

A girl wearing a white ladylike long-sleeved sweater and slim-fitting jeans hurriedly stepped forward to support the old woman and said in a kind and gentle voice: "Grandma, don't worry! The police must be trying to find out the identity of the prisoner!"

The girl's gentleness seemed to calm the old woman's anxious mood. The old woman looked at the girl with beautiful big eyes and neat dark ponytail, and said softly: "Then they can't lock us together with the prisoners! Too much

It’s dangerous.”

"Yes! It's too dangerous! Let's go out together! They don't dare to do anything, after all, we are all ordinary people!"

"Yes! Rush out!"

The two people who had just been driven back actively suggested again.

At this time, a person who had been sitting in the corner of the waiting hall stood up, walked calmly in front of everyone, and said calmly: "As long as everyone in the clinic is gathered together, the prisoner should not be able to commit the crime in full view of the public!"

Everyone looked at the person who spoke. He was a tall young man wearing a gorgeous suit. He had a pair of cold and beautiful red phoenix eyes, gold-rimmed round glasses, neatly parted hair, a slightly grand bow tie and a snow-white shirt collar.

The buttons are very eye-catching.

When the nurse at the front desk saw the noble and handsome man, she subconsciously moved closer to the man. She didn't know whether it was safer this way or she was attracted by the man's appearance.

"That's right! It will be safer if everyone is together!"

A doctor with gray hair in a white coat came to the waiting hall at some point. He heard everyone's conversation and felt that what the young man said made sense.

So, at the initiative of the young man and the doctor, everyone in the clinic gathered in a conference room.

The girl always stayed with the old woman and looked at the people sitting in a circle.

At this time, there are a total of 8 people here, including 1 doctor, 1 nurse, 6 patients and their family members.

The German-American Clinic uses a large number of intelligent diagnostic and treatment equipment, so there is only one doctor and one nurse to do some work that cannot be completed by the equipment.

"Is everyone here?"

The young man said calmly, as if he wanted to control the situation here. The doctors and nurses who were supposed to be the owners of this place seemed to be impressed by the young man's strong aura, and naturally placed themselves in a supporting position.

"Except for the two bedridden patients, everyone in the building is here!"

The gray-haired doctor answered seriously.

"First of all, we can rule out the criminal suspects of the two bedridden patients, which means that the culprit is now among the eight of us!"
