Chapter 166: The Crisis Remains

Chapter 166: The Crisis Remains

"Kaoru-chan, Kaoru-chan...... Wake up...... No...... Hurry up ......"

I don't know how long later, there was a burst of anxious shouts in my ears, the voice confused and confused...... It seems far away from me, and it seems close to me. When I opened my eyes, I saw a hazy landscape. It's as if the whole world is spinning. I can't see anything clearly.

What's wrong with me? Bursts of dizziness are constantly invading my brain, and I want to sleep for a while. The eyes that were about to be opened closed again due to sleepiness.

"Kaoru-chan, don't sleep, please don't sleep, wake up quickly!"

Airplanes!!!

In the next second, a sound like a thunderbolt fell into my ears, and the voice I recognized was Xiaolan's voice. The eyes that were about to close suddenly opened, and it was Xiaolan's lilac eyes that met them. Those beautiful eyes were now full of tears and fear.

"Xiaolan...... Half!!way through the words, the sharp pain brought to me from various parts of my body made me wake up instantly, and my thoughts continued to the moment just before the explosion.

Yes, the sudden explosion caught me off guard, and in a hurry, I only remembered to push Xiaolan out of the danger range, but I was crushed under the falling stones. Because he hit his head, this young body did not withstand the graduate school entrance examination, so he fainted.

"Woo...... Great, Kaoru-chan, you're okay. Xiaolan kept wiping away tears. Due to the explosion, Xiaolan at this moment was also covered with dust. Even the clothes were torn, and while wiping my tears, I also noticed that Xiaolan's hands and fingers were stained with blood. I guess I stayed there to get me out of the rocks.

"Ah, Sister Xiaolan, I'm sorry to worry you. I tried my best to give Xiaolan a smile back, and just as I tried to stand up, a pain like a lightning strike burrowed into my body. That's when I remembered. Now I must have suffered a lot of injuries on my body.

"Kaoru, how are you? Where does it hurt, can you sit up?" Seeing my painful expression, Xiaolan panicked.

"Ah, I probably can't sit up. I looked helpless. "Sister Xiaolan, can you please help me up. But be slow. ”

"Ah, good. Kaoru-chan, if it hurts, you must sue me. ”

"Hmm. ”

After saying that, Xiaolan reached out and ran her hand through my neck and helped me to sit up little by little. In this slow process. I started to stretch my body, and when I sat up straight, I realized that I didn't feel any special pain during the whole process, which means that my spine was not injured, and I let out a long breath for it. After sitting firmly, I began to try to move my limbs. The left hand can still move freely, although there are some bruises on it, it will not affect the movement, and the right arm is not optimistic. I can't move from the shoulder. I pinched it lightly and found that the bone was not broken, probably dislocated. But in the current situation, it's hard for me to pick up my shoulders alone. Even if it's to ask Xiaolan to help...... Forget it, Xiaolan can't do it at all in such a situation. It's better to wait for the body to recover and then connect it yourself.

Ignoring my shoulders, I looked over to my legs and tsk...... The ankle of the left foot was swollen, and the right calf was cut with a deep wound. But it has been bandaged by Xiaolan with a handkerchief. This kind of injury is better than the battle between me and the soul some time ago. But it's okay. At least I didn't hurt my bones, and I believe that my body will be able to recover after a period of rest. It's just that the current situation is ...... I guess I'm no different from a wasted person. I can't stand up even if I want to.

"Kaoru-chan, how do you feel?" Xiaolan looked at me shaking her head and smiling bitterly. Hurriedly asked.

"Well, I don't have anything to do with Sister Xiaolan, it's just that I may not be able to move freely in a short period of time now. I said. "Don't talk about this, Sister Xiaolan, what's the situation now?"

"This ...... I don't know. Xiaolan also relieved herself when she saw that I had nothing to do, and began to explain the current situation to me.

"Just now, for some reason, suddenly the whole building exploded, and just now, there was a burst of explosions from under the building. Xiaolan looked at the collapsed wall with some fear, as well as the gate that had long been deformed. "I'm sorry Kaoru-chan, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have ......"

"It's okay, Sister Xiaolan, aren't I here now? Seeing that Xiaolan was about to shed tears again, I hurriedly opened my mouth to comfort. "The most important thing now is to find a way to get out of here as quickly as possible. Judging by what you just said, such explosions should continue. ”

"Well, but now it's blocked by collapsed rubble, and the gate is completely deformed by the explosion, and I can't even push it open. Xiaolan frowned. "Kaoru-chan...... We're stuck here. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's okay, there's a way, but it will take a little while, and I need to recover a bit. I frowned slightly, and now there are about ten or so people trapped here. If you want to gather all the people here and push the door...... Forget it, people nowadays are not in that mood at all, fear has filled their hearts. And even if there were, after pushing the door open, no one knew what it would be like behind it, and if there was still a ruin behind it, then the people here would become chaotic. Using the button bomb in my necklace wasn't a good option, because the building was already fragile, and the door was a load-bearing wall, so I couldn't take the risk because I couldn't predict what the next bomb would be.

――――The smell of orchids, the taste of lavender, the taste of home > the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians――――

Jingle Bell ...... Jingle Bell ......

Just as I was thinking about how to get out of here, Xiaolan's phone was turned off. When I picked up my phone, it was Kudo's voice ringing on the other side of the phone.

"Xiaolan, it's me!"

"Shinichi?!" Xiaolan was surprised.

"Whew...... Great, the signal wasn't blocked. Kudo exhaled with relief.

"What do you say, why are you always not there every time it is critical...... Do you know what's going on right now? After receiving a call from Kudo, Xiaolan seemed to have found an outlet for her fear and grievances. Seeing that the tears were about to fall.

"Ah...... Of course I do. Kudo's voice was very weak. "I'm stuck in the rubble right now on the side of the emergency exit, and I wanted to push them open, but the force of the explosion has deformed the whole door, and I can't open it no matter how I do. Kudo asked, gasping.

"How are you? not hurt, are you?"

"Well, I'm fine. But Kaoru ......"

"Kaoru, what's wrong with him?"

"Eh, do you know Kaoru?"

"Ah...... Hm. That, my mom used to take that kid to my house to play some time ago, so we got to know each other. Kudo hurriedly made up. "Don't talk about this, how is he?"

"Kaoru Kono, he ...... He was buried in the rubble to save me when it exploded, but now he's awake, but his foot is injured. I couldn't move at all. New ...... What are we going to do. ”

"Is that so. Xiaolan, you give Kaoru the phone first, and then you look in the lobby for any suspicious items like briefcases or suitcases. ”

"Suspicious object? yes, I see. With that, Xiaolan handed me the phone and began to search the hall.

"Kaoru. Are you alright?" Conan hurriedly asked me, knowing that I had taken the call.

"Ah, I'm still alive, but my foot is twisted, my shoulder is dislocated, my only available hand is shaking, and I can't move freely for a short time. I said flatly, as if none of the injuries I had suffered were my own. "Don't talk about that. Let's find a way to get us out of here. You should have firefighters with you, right?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sorry, I came in alone, and the intersection just now collapsed in the explosion. Now I'm trapped on this side of the door, just like you. "Conan, I'm sorry. "However, I have already caught the prisoner, it is Teiji Moriya. And according to him, the last bomb in the Rice Flower Building is in the hall where you are now. ”

"Cut...... Is it Emperor Sengu II?" I shook my head helplessly, if I had chosen to accept that B-class mission. Maybe you won't have to be so wolf now. "Ah, I've seen Lan come over with a big bag of things. You use your bow tie to change your voice to Kudo, be careful not to wear it. ”

"Ahh I know. As he spoke, Conan had begun to use his bow tie. "Kaoru, can you defuse that bomb?"

"If I take a break for a while and pick up my shoulders, I should be fine, but ...... It will take at least thirty minutes or more to recover my trembling left hand, and I will have to give me time to defuse the bomb. Other words...... Forget it, there are thirty-seven minutes left on the timer. Looking at the timer on the box in the bag that Xiaolan brought me, I shook my head helplessly and gave up my own thinking.

β€œ

β€œβ€¦β€¦ How can it be repaired!" At the other end of the door, Conan slammed the door.

"Shinichi, I found a very heavy tote bag. Xiaolan took the phone back from my hand and responded.

"Be careful, Lan, that's a bomb!

"Huh?!...... Bombs?"

"Wow !!"

"Bomb!"

"Don't !!"

Just one word made the people around him move away as if they had seen the devil. Oh, yes, if the bomb really goes off, then the people here are really going to heaven or hell.

"That'...... Shinichi, what should I do. Xiaolan looked at the reactions of the people around her, and then said worriedly into the phone.

"Ah, let me think. Kudo frowned. I thought Kaoru could defuse the bomb lightly over there. But now in his situation, he can't operate it with one hand at all, and the slightest deviation will cause a big disaster, but he obviously got the design drawing......

"That's right, the blueprint!" Kudo suddenly realized and took the blueprint out of his pocket. I took the above photo with my mobile phone and sent it to Xiaolan.

"Lan, did you get the message?"

"Huh? Xiaolan took the phone away from her ear and saw a message on the screen.

"Okay, now you have the phone and Kaoru with you...... Take Kaoru to the door where I am. Press the phone to Kaoru on hands-free and bring the bomb with you, remembering, be careful. ”

"Oh, good. In response, Xiaolan put down the phone, picked me up, took the lead to the door, and then ran back to where we were just now.

"Kaoru...... Is it okay to do that?" heard Ran running away from the phone, and Conan asked me in a whisper.

"Ah, that's the only way to do it now. "I took my phone and looked at the structure of the bomb. "It's up to you to explain the structure of the bomb, I'm in charge of supervising, and let Xiaolan do the bomb defusal work! This is the only way now!"

"I'm sorry, if I had found out about Teiji Moriya earlier, you wouldn't have found yourself in such a crisis as you are now. Conan blamed himself.

"No, the responsibility is on me. I laughed to myself. "If I hadn't been soft-hearted......"

"Huh, what's soft?"

"No, nothing. I said flatly. "Don't say anything, Xiaolan is back. Let's go. ”

"Ahh ”

"Kaoru-chan, Shinichi, what are you talking about?" asked Lan as he lifted the bomb to us.

"Lan, listen up...... Next, I need you to defuse the bomb!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Huh?" (To be continued)
