Moving to the Golden Courtyard

"That's right, all the remaining trains in the depot have the same malfunction. Probably a problem left over from the previous rectification. In short, none of them can be dispatched."

"Who the hell are you!? Huh!? Do you know how many fewer trains there will be on the main line because of this!? This is a red line! A red line alert!"

"The brakes on the remaining trains may all have problems! If the trains can't stop! Then it's not as simple as a red line alert... I think you know the consequences!"

The other party was momentarily speechless—Xu Qi's words were too decisive, making the dispatcher unsure.

"This requires approval from the leadership."

"Supervisor Xia is already applying. He will take full responsibility for this matter!"

"Supervisor Xia? Which Supervisor Xia... Xia Ya? What right does he have as a technical supervisor..."

"Bang!"

Xu Qi hung up the phone abruptly, while Xin An, who was standing beside him, twitched slightly at the corner of her mouth.

"You're just using your mentor's name like that?"

"Anyway, he's probably scheming something somewhere right now... If he can do something like this, he definitely doesn't want to stay in the subway company anymore, so it's fine for me to use his name."

"Crazy... you're really crazy!"

Sure enough, after a while, Xu Qi received a call from the manager of the sixth division.

"Xu Qi! What are you doing!?"

The other party completely lacked the composure and elegance of a leader that he usually had. His words were full of panic, anger, and a hint of unease.

"You actually detained all the trains here in Jiuting! Are you trying to turn the world upside down!?"

"Not just Jiuting."

"Huh?"

"Also Jinqiao."

At this moment, the same scene was playing out in the dispatch room of Jinqiao Base.

Yao Yuchen was standing in front of all the drivers who had not yet boarded the train, gritting his teeth and saying, "Sorry! Problems were found during the rectification of the trains. All trains cannot leave the depot now. Detain the trains!"

"Are you crazy!?"

The dispatcher roared and rushed out of the dispatch room, quickly running to Yao Yuchen.

"Who gave you the right to detain the trains!?"

"It's Supervisor Xia! This is the order from our technical supervisor, Xia Ya!"

"I just called Xia Ya, and no one answered!"

"Then that's your problem. I'm just responsible for conveying Supervisor Xia's instructions—there's a problem with the train's braking system, and the trains still in the depot must be detained!"

"Crazy... you're all crazy!"

Yeah... I also feel like I'm crazy...

Yao Yuchen appeared firm on the surface, but his heart was full of bitterness.

He felt that this was not a problem that could be solved by just being fired. It was possible that he could be sent to jail... Xu Qi, you have really given me a big problem.

"Get out! The dispatch department has not received such an outrageous order to detain trains at all! Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave, I'll call security to drag you out!"

Looking at so many drivers and dispatchers in front of him, the mountain-like pressure was almost suffocating Yao Yuchen.

At this moment!

"Everyone, may I say a word."

The sudden voice, although very soft, still clearly conveyed to everyone's minds.

At this time, everyone couldn't help but look at where the speaker was, and then they saw... a man who seemed to always be squinting, appearing very abruptly beside Yao Yuchen.

Yao Yuchen had an impression of him, one of the four people who came, not talkative, with a very low presence.

Is he also Xu Qi's friend?

Seeing Su taking advantage of the moment when everyone was looking at him, he dangled a pocket watch from his palm.

"You must be very sleepy after working hard all night, right? It's time to sleep..."

Huh! Ah? What is he doing? Yao Yuchen suddenly felt that there was something wrong with this guy's brain. What did he think he was? A hypnotist...

"Bang!"

When the sound of the first person falling to the ground rang out, Yao Yuchen's brain briefly crashed.

Then—they all fell asleep...

Right outside this train depot, including the drivers and dispatchers, all fell to the ground in a daze—fell asleep.

"Okay, now... the problem is solved."

Yao Yuchen looked up at Su beside him. What he didn't know was—at this moment, the way he looked at Su was as if he was looking at a god!

"Crazy! You're really crazy! Do you know what you're doing, Xu Qi!?"

A furious voice erupted from the doorway of the dispatch room, as Ding Yu, the manager of the Sixth Repair Department, barged in! He was followed by a group of leading cadres from the Sixth Department.

However, the scene that greeted them when they opened the door was somewhat surreal.

All the drivers and dispatchers were obediently staying in the dispatch room, while Xu Qi sat in the main seat, looking calm and composed, as if he had been waiting for them to arrive.

Xin An stood beside him, looking resigned.

Besides Xin An, there were two unfamiliar women, so beautiful that they seemed to put the female celebrities on the screen to shame.

But what was even more shocking was that both women had long swords hanging from their waists.

They didn't look like fake ones...

"To be honest, I can't do anything about it now..."

The first to speak was Xu Qi.

"Now I can only pray, pray that the train with the brake failure is among those I intercepted in the depot, and not on the main line."

Brake failure!?

This was like PTSD for some people, and Ding Yu stepped forward! As the current manager of the Sixth Repair Department, he was extremely sensitive to this!

"Do you know what you're saying? This is not comparable to that 914 brake test... Xu Qi! Don't think that you can just rely on that merit you earned..."

"You should know what I'm talking about, Manager Ding. After all, you took Xia Ya's position, didn't you? Train 956 has a brake failure on the main line – Xia Ya wants to recreate the scene from back then."

Ding Yu's eyes widened.

"What did you say!?"

"I know it sounds crazy, and I hope it's not true. Let's wait... the only thing we can do now is wait. After all, once the train is on the main line, I don't have the right to call them back."

Ding Yu's face turned ashen, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

The group leaders had been calling one after another since early morning, all asking what was happening on Line 9 and why there was such a severe shortage of trains on the main line!

The morning rush hour was approaching, and there were only twenty or thirty trains running on the main line!

The transport capacity was severely insufficient!

"Xu Qi, how about this, you let the drivers drive the trains out first, and if there are any problems, we can..."

"You still don't understand..." Xu Qi shook his head.

"Since I've gone this far, like Xia Ya, I haven't thought about turning back. If there are fewer trains on the main line, then even if there is a train with brake failure, there is still a chance to save it.

Pray, you better pray too – pray that the train that Xia Ya tampered with has been detained by me in the depot."

33,Do what you want to do, young man

"Master Xia Ya, have you seen the news online?"

"Yes, Line 9 has a severe shortage of train capacity, with only one train every ten minutes or so during the morning rush hour, and most of the trains are detained in the depot."

"Yes... Line 9 is no longer just about trains being packed, but about train stations being packed! The police have been dispatched to evacuate the crowds."

"It seems that Xu Qi has taken action."

"Yes, just as Master Xia Ya said. But I didn't expect that kid to be so ruthless!"

"Don't worry about it, contact the people from Anti-Entropy, and proceed with the plan as usual."

"Yes!"

"Xu Qi! Look at what you've done!" Ding Yu held his phone up to Xu Qi's face, showing a video of the crowded People's Square station, where the police were evacuating the crowds and maintaining order.

The dense crowd of people was enough to make one's scalp tingle.

After Xu Qi finished watching, he said calmly, "At least they are still alive."

"What kind of evil have you been possessed by to believe..."

Halfway through his words, another phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

"Hmph!" Ding Yu snorted coldly, and said mockingly, "It must be the group leaders calling again, you just wait to be questioned!"

The call was connected, but it was not the group leader or the city leader that Ding Yu had imagined, but... a small dispatcher.

"M... Manager Ding..."

"Huh? Who are you? What do you want from me?"

"956... 956..."

"What?" Ding Yu frowned, but Xu Qi, with his amazing senses, keenly heard the dispatcher's words and tone on the other end of the phone.

Full of fear and panic!

Xu Qi immediately rushed to Ding Yu's side, pushed him away, and took the phone from his hand.

"What's wrong with 956?"

"It's 956... 956 is back... 956 is back! It's 956!"

"Calm down!" Xu Qi interrupted the other party's almost insane words, and said calmly, "Tell me... what happened! Tell me!"

"956 can't brake... can't brake! This train can't stop now! It's over... it's all over... that train that can never stop – is back."

"!"

Xu Qi's eyes widened. At the same time, almost all the leaders and cadres present had their phones ringing one after another, and the only message waiting for them was...

Train 956! Unable to brake!

Xu Qi hung up the phone. He slowly turned his head and looked at Ding Yu, whose face was pale, clearly aware of what was happening.

"Looks like you didn't pray hard enough... Manager Ding."

Ding Yu suddenly looked up!

"You... what do you know?! How could you know that a train would be unable to brake! You... did you do all this?!"

Xin An, standing behind Xu Qi, couldn't help but laugh.

The sarcasm in her voice made Ding Yu's face flush red.

Mei took a deep breath and walked to Xu Qi's side, asking, "What do we do?"

Yes... what to do?

"First, go to Meilong... to the vehicle command headquarters. If everything is going smoothly with Alysia, then all the leaders must be there now."

"Okay!"

Time shifted back. When Vil-V issued the order to go to the substation and the road network center, Xu Qi's side also made corresponding countermeasures—a desperate measure.
