That bomb exploded after a 30 minute standoff. Brian died on the spot. The bomb squad showed up just minutes later.

It begins with the robbery and ends with finding the lock to that bomb. Brian was heading to the next note location, but he was trapped by police and the bomb exploded. Police found a notebook while searching Brian’s home. They discovered a notebook with phone numbers written inside it. Then, another dead body turns up.
