Chapter 954:

Then he heard someone speaking on a walkie-talkie in a foreign language, roughly translated as: "Almost there, with the explosives..."

Raegan gasped, surprised.

As the footsteps receded, Raegan saw the man heading towards level B2.

A sinking feeling overwhelmed her. He urgently called Cary, who answered immediately. «Are you out yet?»

“No, Cary, I just saw someone heading to level B2 with explosives!”

Cary's voice hardened. "Are you sure what you saw?"

«I'm sure. "It seems that he has found the way out and is going down to plant the explosives."

Instantly, Cary spoke gravely into his walkie-talkie. "Evacuate immediately."

Then, almost at the same time, a loud explosion sounded from both the phone and outside.

Fortunately, Raegan threw herself onto the carpet just in time, which cushioned her fall and protected her from the force of the explosion.

The phone hit the ground, cutting off the call.

Raegan realized that the exit below must be compromised, probably where the special forces had planned to enter and defuse the explosives.

Worried that the man she had just seen would return, she quickly retrieved her phone and took shelter in a nearby electrical room.

At that moment, his cell phone signal weakened considerably. He only had one bar left, and even this one was flashing intermittently.

Raegan tried several times to reconnect with the command center, but her calls kept failing. He finally got a stable signal near a window.

At that moment Matteo's call came in. His voice carried palpable anxiety. «Miss Foster, don't be scared. "We are still looking for another way out."

Matteo had been stationed at the special forces command center, believing that Raegan had escaped, not expecting that Lorenzo's men had destroyed the only exit.

At the time, Matteo was deeply concerned for both Raegan's safety and Mitchel's fate.

Despite her dangerous surroundings, Raegan remained calmer than Matteo. He said, “Could you pass the phone to the commander? "I need to ask you something."

“Miss, what is it?”

Raegan asked, "This remote controlled homemade explosive, I remember reading that cutting the wire responsible for the remote control prevents it from detonating, is that correct?"

Raegan didn't know. He had seen it once in a book in his father's study.

Her father, a military enthusiast, liked to read these types of books and often discussed these topics with Raegan. So, although she had never seen real explosives, she understood them better than most thanks to her reading.

Cary replied: "In theory, yes. Remote-controlled explosives are designed with a special cable for remote activation. If it is cut, they can no longer be detonated from a distance.
