Chapter 19: You Can Breathe
Chapter 19
Zou Xuezheng heard this and her eyes suddenly turned red, looking pitiful as if to arouse a sense of protection.
But she didn't let the tears fall. Instead, she turned around, wiped her eyes a couple of times, and turned back with a smile.
She put on the posture of a strong little white flower.
Li Xing couldn't stand to see this anymore. Considering Jiang Shiwen was present, he didn't make any substantial moves. He just said to the director's team, "Weren't we just talking about breakfast? Can we get the tasks now? Can I help someone else with their task?"
The director smiled benevolently, "We only recognize the results of completed tasks, not who completed them."
After hearing this, Shen Shuangyi didn't hurry to the program team to get a task. Instead, she suddenly asked, "What's today's bonus?"
The director smiled mysteriously, "The main goal today is to cultivate everyone's survival skills, so the bonus is also survival-related."
As the director explained, staff members carefully brought out an iron box. Although no one could see what was inside, from the staff's expressions and actions, it was clear it contained something very dangerous.
After the iron box was put in place and the lid opened, there was a pineapple-shaped object inside.
"This is a BLU-3/B-type bomb, also known as a pineapple bomb. Although we've modified it to reduce most of its explosive power and won't injure anyone, it would still hurt a lot if it exploded incorrectly while dismantling it."
Seeing everyone's suddenly ugly expressions, the director's team smiled satisfiedly. This was the reaction they wanted!
The so-called bonus, of course, was extremely difficult when no one could get it. That's when they were happiest!
"You've probably guessed already, today's bonus is this pineapple bomb. Whoever can be the first to safely dismantle the bomb will get today's bonus - a personal butler! The personal butler can satisfy any six requests except direct money! Of course, if it's a request to cook a meal, each meal will count as one request. The program team has the final interpretation rights for everything!"
"So, does anyone want to try for this bonus?"
【The program team is crazy? This is a bomb!】
【They really dare to play like this. Wouldn't it be better to watch the stars do some silly games?】
【Forget General Gan Xingba, just go straight to hell.】
【I feel like Shen Yue has some ideas. She's not afraid at all.】
【That's just Shen Yue's normal expression.】
The program team's words scared both the guests and the audience.
As they said, domestic variety shows nowadays basically just gather everyone to play small games. A show bringing out a real bomb was unheard of.
"You guys are crazy? A bomb is too dangerous, there are kids here." Li Xing frowned at the program team, taking two task cards from the director.
"I already explained that the exterior is the same as a pineapple bomb, but after modifications the explosion won't be dangerous, just a bit painful."
Li Xing didn't say anything else. He took the two task cards and left.
After that, everyone else also came to take task cards they felt they could complete. Only Shen Yue went over to the bomb to observe it carefully.
Seeing Shen Yue was interested in the bomb, Jiang Shiwen's eyes lit up. He decided to go complete his task later.
Seeing Shen Yue's actions, Shen Shuangyi also stopped in her tracks to head out and came back.
At this time, Zou Xuezheng leisurely said, "Yueyue, that thing is too dangerous, not something you can play with."
As she spoke, she prepared to reach out and pull Shen Yue back, but was stopped by Jiang Shiwen.
"Auntie, mind your own business. Even her brother hasn't said anything yet you're happily yelling all day."
"Shiwen! Apologize!"
"Teacher Li Xing, I'm fine."
These three started their daily clamor. Shen Yue didn't care and instead carefully observed the bomb's structure.
Just as the program team said, this was a standard BLU-3/B type bomb. This kind of bomb won't explode if it lands on soft ground or hangs from a tree. That was also why this pineapple bomb was still very stable.
She also remembered the principles behind the pineapple bomb's explosion. First the bomb leaves the aircraft. Then the T-shaped arming pin controlling the tail fins drops away and the fins spring open. The base plate is then released.
At this time, because of the tension of the tower spring, the striker pops out of its slot and the detonator bucket is no longer constrained. It is pushed by the creep spring to bring the detonator into line with the striker. Now it is in combat status.
When the body hits the ground, the tower spring is compressed. The striker impacts the detonator to trigger the explosion.
She could judge that the program team's pineapple bomb had not yet entered combat status. So, to disarm this bomb she just needed to...
As Shen Yue thought, she picked up the reamer from the box...
Just as everyone relaxed, Shen Yue directly reached out and took the bomb out of the soft box.
In that instant, the whole venue fell silent. Even the scrolling bullet screen comments stopped.
Shen Yue placed the tail of the bomb body inward on her left hand. With her right hand she removed the T-shaped arming pin so the tail fins opened up. She evenly pried up the concave parts of the six compression holes on the base plate with the small reamer. At this time, the tower spring automatically ejected the striker and detonator cap itself.
Then Shen Yue put down the reamer and also put down the bomb, the meaning clear.
She had successfully disarmed it, just now, in a very short, less than one minute, time.
For a time, everyone forgot to speak, all staring at the bomb Shen Yue had put on the ground to see if it would explode.
At this time, a bullet comment suddenly floated by.
【Life hack, you can breathe.】
