You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

That cold metal box was like a tombstone embedded in the heart of the theater.

Lin Chen's pupils contracted to their maximum size in that instant.

[God-level Mechanical Mastery], Full Power Analysis!

Om-!

There were no complicated disassembly steps, and not even any touching.

Lin Chen's gaze seemed to transform into the most precise X-ray, instantly piercing through the matte alloy shell!

The scene inside the box was completely deconstructed and reconstructed in his mind at a speed that surpassed 3D modeling!

That wasn't a single bomb.

It was a death matrix constructed from thirty-two pieces of high-energy C4 plastic explosives in an extremely precise and interlocking array!

Each C4 detonator is connected to a platinum wire thinner than a human hair.

The endpoints of all the wires are not any conventional timers or remote control devices.

They converge at the very center of the matrix, a precision audio sensing core composed of multi-layered ultra-sensitive crystal diaphragms and composite pickups!

This bomb has no countdown.

Its detonation awaits only one sound.

A specific sound!

Lin Chen's brain was working at full speed, and his [God-level Music Theory Mastery] and [God-level Mechanical Mastery] reached a perfect resonance at this moment!

The thickness of the crystal diaphragm, the sensitivity threshold of the pickup, the parameters of the filter on the circuit board... all the data converged, collided, and were analyzed in his mind!

The next second, a conclusion that almost froze Lin Chen's blood came to mind!

The detonation conditions have been found!

Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, "Fate"!

First movement, Allegro Brilliant!

When the piano plays to the climax of the piece, during that powerful and fateful cadenza composed of sixteen consecutive sixteenth notes, the unique composite sound wave spectrum it produces will create a perfect physical resonance with this sensing core!

Once Su Ke'er's fingertips struck that fateful note.

Resonance will trigger the fuse instantly!

boom!!!

This giant load-bearing pillar that supports the entire stage will be instantly blown to dust!

As a result of the chain reaction, the entire structure of the grand theater will collapse instantly!

Three thousand audience members, along with the naive girl on stage, will be completely buried by flames and steel in that magnificent musical movement!

At that moment, Lin Chen seemed to recall Su Ke'er's innocent smile, Jiang Tingxue's shy gaze, and Ye Qingcheng's rare gentle smile.

Every note that was about to be played became a death knell tolling on their lives!

"Tick-tock".

A drop of cold sweat silently slid down Lin Chen's chiseled jawline and landed on the cold cement floor with a barely audible thud.

This was the first time he had felt a feeling called "tricky" since he obtained the system.

This madman, he didn't design a bomb.

He designed a perfect acoustic dead end, full of dark humor!

……

at the same time.

On the stage.

The spotlight suddenly shone, dispelling all the darkness.

"Now, let's give a warm round of applause to our special guest pianist tonight, Ms. Su Ke'er, an outstanding alumna of our academy, who will perform Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, 'Fate'!"

The host's voice had just faded.

Thunderous applause resounded throughout the theater.

Su Ke'er wore a pure white strapless evening gown, looking like a princess from a fairy tale, or an elegant and noble swan.

Lifting her skirt, she walked slowly to the Steinway grand piano worth millions in the center of the stage, under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

She took a deep breath, her pretty face flushed with excitement and nervousness, and bowed deeply to the audience.

Jiang Tingxue, sitting in the VIP seats in the first row, had a look of pride and satisfaction in her eyes.

Ye Qingcheng, unusually, set aside her usual coldness, and a faint, sincere smile appeared on her lips.

None of them knew.

Death's scythe is already hanging over everyone's head.

Su Ke'er sat down gracefully, her slender, fair fingers gently hovering over the black and white piano keys.

At that moment, the entire theater fell completely silent.

Boom-!

Boom-!

Boom-!

when--!

Those four heavy notes, like knocking on the door of destiny, roared out from the piano case!

The entire theater was instantly enveloped in a grand yet somber atmosphere.

Everyone held their breath, immersed in this immortal melody.

Only the sound of the zither echoed in the vast space.

……

Directly below the stage.

In that absolute darkness and deathly silence.

Lin Chen half-squatted in front of that cold, load-bearing pillar, his entire body's muscles tensed to the extreme.

He had no tools.

He doesn't need any tools either.

[God-level insight] magnifies and deconstructs the internal structure of that death matrix with billions of times more detail, creating an incredibly clear three-dimensional neural network diagram!

He "saw" it.

Around that deadly audio receiver, there were at least twelve mercury balance sensors densely packed together!

As long as the bomb's tilt angle exceeds 0.1 degrees, the mercury droplet will instantly connect the circuit!

Detonate!

Below the mercury device, there are three deadly nets formed by intersecting infrared rays.

Any object, even a speck of dust, that enters will instantly trigger the alarm!

Detonate!

This is simply an inanimate object that cannot be disassembled!

According to the standard procedure of the police force's top bomb disposal experts, the only way to deal with this level of bomb is to seal it up layer by layer, then freeze it with liquid nitrogen using a robot, and then cut it.

The whole process will take at least three hours!

And now, only... remains until Su Ke'er plays that deathly florid chord.

Less than ten minutes!

Lin Chen slowly closed his eyes.

Everything outside seemed to be isolated from him.

Above his head, the stirring and tragic music surged into his ears like a tide.

[God-level hearing], synchronized in real time with every frequency of the piano sound!

He could "hear" the force of each keystroke Su Ke'er made.

You can "hear" the waveform of each vibration of the strings.

You can "hear" the trajectory of the notes as they travel through the air.

At that moment, his brain transformed into a supercomputer that surpassed the quantum level.

A plan so insane it was unprecedented and unparalleled took shape in his mind in an instant!

Normal disassembly is a dead end.

Then let's not take the usual path!

Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and his deep eyes shone with an absolute confidence that he was in control of everything!

He is about to perform an unprecedented "acoustic surgery"!

He doesn't plan to remove the entire audio receiver.

What he had to do was to peel off only the core layer of the physical resonance membrane without triggering any alarms!
