A communication officer received the task to arrive at point $B$ from point $A$ by a specified time. The distance between $A$ and $B$ is $s$ km. When the officer reached point $C$, which is exactly halfway from $A$ to $B$, he calculated that he would be 2 hours late if he continued traveling at the same speed. However, if at point $C$ he rested for 1 hour and then increased his speed by $v$ km/h for the remaining distance, he would reach $B$ at the designated time. What was the designated time for the officer to arrive?
