As Bai Lin pretended to be a fool, Lin Sen was tactful too. He smiled and did not pursue the matter. However, his curiosity about Bai Lin grew.
Like what Zhao Yuan said, she grew up in the countryside and was uncultured. Her abilities were limited, and her outlook was narrow. She was only a little better than a person in a comatose.
The rumors he had heard previously more or less sounded the same. However, he had only realized how versatile Bai Lin was after she came on the show.
Lin Sen’s probing gaze fell on Bai Lin who was focused on defusing the bomb.
The second bomb was twice as big as the first one and was very heavy. Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang lifted it up together to make it easier for Bai Lin to do her thing.
The metal casing was tightly sealed. There were only flickering electronic digits on the screen surface. Compared to this, the previous bomb had the difficulty level set for elementary school kids.
Bai Lin touched the surface and stopped when she felt the screw. This should be the connecting point but it could not be opened by hand.
“Do you have a screwdriver?
The staff member’s eyes lit up. “The beginner kit costs 100 points, the intermediate kit costs 300 points, and the advanced kit costs 500 points.”
The members of Bai Lin’s group had too many points, so when the checkpoints were set up, there were many new arrangements for them—the disposal methods, defusing tools, and off-site guidance if they could not understand the instructions provided…
If everything went according to the plan, the maximum points left on average would not exceed 100 points.
“What’s in the beginner kit?” Bai Lin asked.
“A cross point and flatheaded screwdriver each and a voltage tester.”
When the staff member saw that Bai Lin was not interested in the other two kits, he quickly promoted them, “The other two kits come with two free off-site guidance sessions and have more tools.”
Bai Lin was silent for a moment.
The staff member thought that she was tempted and continued to encourage her, “To be honest, the difficulty of the previous bomb can’t be compared to this one at all. The third bomb will only be more difficult. It’s impossible to defuse it by luck or basic bomb disposal experience.”
“Do you sell the screwdriver separately?”
The staff member was speechless. He felt like vomiting blood.
[Bai Lin… I’m not going to comment about her anymore. Is the expert who knows how to defuse bombs still here? What’s the standard of this bomb?]
[The case isn’t removed, so I can’t tell what’s going on for the time being.
Judging from the count up timer, it probably isn’t simple.]
[Can you elaborate? I don’t really understand this.]
[Common bombs do count down timers. A count up timer means that there are two trip wires inside. One set is real and another set is fake. After correctly distinguishing the real from the fake, one will have to cut the fake set of trip wires first. Only after cutting the right ones could one cut the real ones. In short, it’s very complicated. If it’s really the double time bomb that I know of, then I can only say that the production team is really amazing. There’s a one-third chance of getting the red, blue, or green wire right. But the accuracy rate for this is only one in a thousand.]
While the audience was shocked by the bomb disposal expert’s explanation, the staff member finally managed to find his voice.
“You should spend when you need to,” he said, “The screwdriver costs ten points but…”
“A flatheaded screwdriver, thanks,” Bai Lin said simply.
Seeing how determined Bai Lin was, the staff member no longer tried to persuade her. He deducted her points and handed her the screwdriver, getting ready to watch the show.
It took three minutes for Bai Lin to open the casing. When the netizens saw the complicated and dense wiring, they gasped.
[This lousy show is inhumane. They’re just trying to extort the guests’ points.]
[How are the wires considered a set? How could one divide 40-50 wires? This is too scary.]
[I’d have been blown up if it were me.]
[Expert? Are you here? Is this level difficult?]
[Here, but not an expert. I’m just a student. If I were to encounter such a bomb,
I’d rather give up.]
“Ah, goodness, we’ve finally arrived.”
While Bai Lin was focused on defusing the bomb, Zhao Yuan’s voice came from afar.
They had wasted a long time in the morning and finally came to an agreement to set off together.
The rabbit was not eaten. Bai Xi wanted to use it to reinforce her kind and innocent character, so she kept carrying it. However, this rabbit was bred as food and was very fat. She was so tired that she could barely lift her arms.
As soon as she arrived, she put the rabbit down and sat on the chair to drink some water. From the corner of her eye, she saw Bai Lin and the others fiddling with something.
Just then, the staff member came over and explained the conditions they had meet for this stage.
The bomb was made in two copies. Bai Lin had already found the locations of the bombs, so they just had to defuse them. In other words, they had one and a half hour more than Bai Lin’s team.
After hearing the rules, Bai Xi’s eyes shone. She told Bai Shao gently, “Xiao Shao, I remember you playing a similar game. It’s called Bomb Disposal Expert or something? It’s been so long and jiejie and the others have only managed to defuse one bomb. Let’s go and help them..”
