Episode 19 recap: Wang Rui Jie Continues to Defuse Bombs

In Episode 19, it's reported that Wang Rui Jie is exceptionally skilled, managing to cut down the bomb threat warning time from a lengthy wait to a critical thirty minutes. Upon receiving the news, Peng Ying Xiang and the team hurried to the Qingliangmen Train Station. Meanwhile, the local police had already initiated evacuation procedures to ensure everyone's safety.

The situation was complicated by the presence of a tank car in the station, filled with hazardous chemicals. An explosion could lead to unimaginable consequences. Peng Ying Xiang made a decisive call to first evacuate the area and then sent in a police dog to check for any remaining individuals while also locating the bomb.

Wang Rui Jie stepped up, quickly recognizing the bomb's "signature," having previously disarmed a similar one. Confident in her experience, she assured everyone she could handle it. Although the team leader was supposed to lead the operation personally, he allowed Wang Rui Jie to take charge given the circumstances.

To enhance safety, Peng Ying Xiang ordered a power shutdown, leaving the mastermind in the control room stunned as the screens went dark, rendering them unable to see anything.

On the other side, Cheng Han Yue felt that a technical expert was needed to help track down the real culprit, so she recommended Wu Yi Man. The team leader agreed, finding her suggestion valid. Wu Yi Man meticulously analyzed the sound from the emergency call and uncovered a clue—the suspect appeared to be nearby and mentioned a logistics company called Black Ant Logistics, which seemed to have some connection to Wang Rui Jie.

Cheng Han Yue wanted to personally lead the investigation, but the team leader, being cautious, dispatched a second strike team first. Anxious about the urgency of Wu Yi Man's discovery, Cheng Han Yue suspected it might be linked to Wang Rui Jie’s former unit. After hearing this, the team leader decided to conduct a comprehensive investigation of all possible leads, personally reaching out to the bureau chief for assistance while instructing Cheng Han Yue to contact Peng Ying Xiang to share this crucial information.

Peng Ying Xiang wasn't idle either; he privately asked Yan Jun if Wang Rui Jie had any past romantic entanglements. Yan Jun shook his head, indicating he didn't know. Meanwhile, facing the mercury column on the bomb and with time running out, Wang Rui Jie had no choice but to run to an open area. Unfortunately, the bomb detonated. Fortunately, Wang Rui Jie was lucky; although she was thrown back by the explosion, medical checks revealed she had only temporarily lost her hearing and was otherwise unharmed.

Seizing the opportunity, Peng Ying Xiang asked Wang Rui Jie about her romantic history. She candidly admitted that she had never been in a relationship, aside from being close to Yan Jun. As for any secret admirers, her mind was too jumbled to remember anything.

After a brief rest, Wang Rui Jie provided Peng Ying Xiang with a QR code for a class group chat, noting that it consisted of male classmates, suggesting the police check their activities. Peng Ying Xiang immediately forwarded it to Wu Yi Man. Meanwhile, the second strike team arrived at Black Ant Logistics, only to find it completely empty.

Wu Yi Man carefully replayed the audio from the emergency call and had a sudden realization: Black Ant Logistics was a cover! She quickly notified Cheng Han Yue to retreat, and indeed, the bomb there detonated, but fortunately, the withdrawal was timely, and there were no casualties.

Through Wu Yi Man's tracking, it was discovered that the suspects had solid alibis proving they were not in Donghai. Meanwhile, the military reported that they had checked all individuals connected to Wang Rui Jie who had bomb-making skills, and all were cleared. Just then, a third emergency call came in. After a clever delay, the call was eventually transferred to Peng Ying Xiang.

Wang Rui Jie answered the phone, deliberately provoking the caller with her words. The caller, emotionally charged, revealed that he had confessed to Wang Rui Jie in the past but was rejected, and this time he wanted her to pay the price. Thus, a silent battle over love and hate began to unfold.
