Chapter 973 Quite Unusual
"Master Lin! Master Lin! A special train derailed at Zhoulizhuang Station. The casualties are currently unknown. There was also an explosion at the scene!"
Behind the desk, Lin Ze stood up suddenly.
"Send people over immediately to cordon off the scene. No one is allowed to approach without my order!"
"Yes!"
Nowadays, the response speed of the Auxiliary Management Bureau is not to be underestimated. Not only can it achieve full control coverage within the city, but even outside the city, it can quickly arrive through mobile forces such as three-wheeled motorcycles.
At Zhoulizhuang Station, Zhao Lijun was stunned for a moment before making a quick decision, "Find it! Find that safe! Quick, quick, quick!"
Several people then rushed towards the train, and several carriages were already on fire.
Due to the special nature of the special train, a large amount of wood was used for decoration inside, which contributed to the fire.
Zhao Lijun and others searched several carriages in succession, but found nothing useful except the Japanese soldiers who died in a miserable state.
"The last few sections! Look for it in the last few sections!"
At this moment, Xu Shuanglin rushed to his nephew's side, and with a burst of strength from nowhere, he grabbed him and said, "Hanjie, what are you doing!"
Xu Hanjie said nothing, his eyes shining.
"Hanjie, what are you doing!"
"Uncle! These are the devils. They killed so many people!"
Xu Shuanglin's eyes were red and he was breathing heavily. That strength seemed to have disappeared again.
He pushed his nephew aside and said, "Go back, back to the station building. Remember, the switch is broken and stuck. Do you understand?"
Over there, Zhao Lijun became more and more anxious as he searched, and couldn't help but wonder if the safe was in the carriages where the explosion occurred?
If so, has the item been destroyed?
There was a mechanical roar in the distance. Zhao Lijun gritted his teeth and said, "Retreat!"
An hour later, Lin Ze arrived at the scene.
Niu San'er whispered, "No one can survive a collision of this magnitude. This is a serious problem. A major general is dead, and the remaining twenty or so are all high-ranking officers."
Lin Ze felt both troubled and happy.
What needs to be determined now is the nature of the incident. Was it an accident or a deliberately planned assassination?
He looked at the wreckage of several carriages and frowned. "The fire is so intense? The explosion was quite strong. Can derailment cause an explosion?"
He walked forward to take a closer look and smelled the odor, "No, this is explosives, it exploded from the inside."
Niu Saner understood instantly, "I will report to the front army headquarters right away. There is a problem inside this special train. Someone placed explosives in the carriage. The violent explosion caused the train to lose control..."
Lin Ze nodded and said, "The station staff should control them first and don't make things difficult for them."
Following the exploded part further back are several rear carriages.
Lin Ze went in and took a few looks, and suddenly a bright silver flash attracted his attention.
Pushing away the covering cargo, a portable safe several dozen centimeters square was revealed.
With a thought, the safe was put into the space.
Afterwards, he went to check the front part of the train. Because the front part of the train was made of steel, the deformation was not serious, but the impact was too great, and the driver and two mechanics were killed on the spot.
At this moment, a detail on the track caught his attention.
At the switch section at the meeting point, the point rail did not fit into the base rail on either side. In other words, regardless of whether the vehicle exploded or not, it would have derailed at this point.
Was this formed by an impact, or has it always been like this?
Lin Ze walked back to the station building and instructed Niu Saner, "Take everyone at this station to the Military Police Headquarters and place them under guard. No one is allowed to interrogate them. Have Yoshimura Yuta personally bring experts from the North China Transportation Company to take over and study the damage caused by the explosion to the tracks, especially the switches."
"Yes!"
......................
North China Front Army Headquarters.
The old devil Okamura was resting with his eyes closed. It was already evening and he was indeed a little tired after a busy day of work.
Suddenly the adjutant rushed in and scared him!
"Bagaya road!"
"Ha! General, this is an emergency!"
Okamura suppressed his anger and said, "Speak!"
"A special train departing from Jinling exploded at Zhoulizhuang Station in southern Tianjin. A major general, thirteen colonels, and several lieutenant colonels were killed instantly! Colonel Lin has rushed to the scene!"
Very quickly, Okamura stood up!
“What!??”
You're fucking kidding me!
This is almost the death toll of a major battle!
"The news is true!?"
"It was reported by the Tianjin Military Police Headquarters!"
Okamura took a deep breath. This is fucking troublesome!
"What else did Lin-san say?"
"Colonel Lin has conducted a preliminary investigation of the scene and believes the explosion occurred from inside the carriage. This means someone may have placed a bomb inside the carriage."
Okamura breathed a sigh of relief again.
The car exploded, which is very troublesome. It is very important to know how the car exploded.
Exploding from the inside and blasting from the outside are completely different things.
If the bomb was buried on the railway tracks, then the responsibility would have to be borne by the North China side. At that time, just the wrangling would be a troublesome matter. With so many senior officers dead, the headquarters would definitely not let it go.
And if the bomb exploded from inside, then what does it have to do with North China?
Maybe the bomb was already planted in Nanjing!
"I'll go to the scene right away and have Lin Sang take control of the place. No one is allowed to get close!"
"Hayi!"
....................
Jinling.
When the North China Front Army reported the train explosion and derailment, the entire expeditionary force headquarters and the Reform Government were shocked!
The reaction of the Reform Government was even stronger than that of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. President Wang even personally arranged for someone to send a telegram to Tianjin, saying that they had transported important documents and that it must be people in the south who took action for these documents.
Originally, Lin Ze thought that the safe would contain gold, bills and other things.
After being reminded by Jinling, he actually perked up.
There are also unexpected gains!
As for Nanjing's request that they conduct a strict investigation of the Military Control Commission spies, Lin Ze just ignored it.
What a joke! Tianjin and its surrounding areas are model areas for public security. Are there any Military Control Commission spies there?
Where did this Military Intelligence Bureau spy come from!
Lin Ze immediately asked Niu Saner to call back and said that he had received the call. The North China Front Army, the Special Service Department, and the Tianjin Gendarmerie Command had conducted an investigation together with railway experts and found that the train derailed because of an internal explosion. He asked Jinling to increase its efforts to investigate whether a bomb was placed on the train when it was in Jinling.
At this time, Niu Saner brought another piece of news. As the interior of the carriage was cleaned, more and more traces and evidence gradually appeared.
This explosion is quite unusual!
