The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 818

Chloe was furious when Daniel called her brainless. She demanded an explanation from him or she wouldn’t let it go.

"Why would the robbers put wild boars in an abandoned building? To lure you in, of course! And why lure you in? To kill you!" Daniel’s reasoning couldn’t be dismissed easily.

Chloe frowned and asked, "How are they planning to kill us?"

"With bombs, of course! One big explosion, and you’re all gone, blown to pieces. None of you will have a whole body left!" Daniel explained.

"What?" Chloe looked at Daniel in shock. "You're saying there are bombs in those abandoned buildings?"

"Absolutely! And not just any bombs, really powerful ones. Comparable to TNT. If those bombs go off, it might not flatten the entire block of abandoned buildings, but it would certainly destroy a third of it."

"How do you know there are bombs in there? How do you know how powerful they are?" Chloe asked incredulously.

"Because I'm a fortune teller! Your dad knows this. I just need a glance to see everything," Daniel replied, dead serious.

Daniel glanced at the heat map and immediately understood. Actually, he didn’t even need to look at it to know what was going on.

"Chloe, these scientific instruments are indeed impressive. But the movement patterns shown on the heat map are exactly those of wild boars," Daniel said.

"Wild boar patterns? Boars can move like this? They can create tracks that look like human movement patterns? These patterns are clearly and undoubtedly human. Do you know that I’ve been in the police force for five years? I know what I’m doing; I'm not a fool! If I couldn’t differentiate between human and boar movement patterns, I wouldn’t be in my position now. At my age, I’m the youngest captain in our department’s history!" Chloe declared proudly.
