"No problem."

Under the flickering light, the man wearing sunglasses had a proud smile on his lips.

Ogata looked at Matsuda Jinpei, who appeared in the elevator at this time, and was not surprised that he was able to enter and exit such a confined space freely. Because the soul body is void, it is free to move through physical objects and to be able to go where they want to go.

If there was one thing that really surprised him, it was that Matsuda Jinpei would appear at this time and lend a hand.

You know, if it weren't for Miwako Sato's relationship, they would be two people who have nothing to do with each other!

Matsuda Jinhei seemed to see through Ogata's mind at this time, and slowly spoke: "Is it okay to call you Ogata?" ”

"Hmm." Ogata nodded.

"I'm dead, I'm well aware of that." Matsuda Jinpei scratched his head, as if laughing at himself: "As a god of death, all I can do is to be a boring spectator in this world that does not belong to me at all." Even if I wanted to try to change, it didn't seem like I had a chance, did I? ”

His smile was always on his face: "Since I am so useless, I can't protect Sato at all, then the only thing I can do now is to help you who keep in touch with me as much as possible, and make you owe me a favor." ”

"Favors?" Ogata looked at Matsuda Jinpei, and in the small space, he could clearly see the other party's eyes.

Matsuda Jinpei stared at Ogata and said slowly, "Maybe it can't be called a favor but as a useless ghost, unilaterally asking for help from you!" ”

"Promise me to keep Miwako Sato safe. I don't want her to get hurt in any way! Matsuda Jinpei clenched the sunglasses he had taken off in his hand. Lowered his posture. He looked at Ogata pleadingly.

Hearing this, Ogata caught the loneliness on Matsuda Jinpei's face, and said for a long time, "Aren't you going to continue to protect her?" ”

"It's useless." Matsuda Jinpei's face showed pain, he looked at his palm that was close to the void, and slowly clenched it: "After I died three years ago, I have been by Sato's side. During that time, I thought I was still alive and alive. I'm glad that I can still remain conscious, and I can be with the woman I like in another way."

"But it's kind of ridiculous to think about it now. When she went out, I couldn't help her solve the case because I was afraid of the sun. Because there is no real strength, there is no way to save Sato when she is in danger. Because I can't communicate with her, I saw that she left the pain buried three years ago in my heart, and I thought that I was a very capable man, confident that with my own ability, I could take care of the people I liked, and I could accomplish many feats."

"But a qiē is all a fantasy. It wasn't until my hand passed through her countless times that I gradually understood. I'm dead, and my so-called guardianship may be a kind of nostalgia, a wishful dream! ”

Matsuda Jinhei smiled helplessly: "In the past three years, the only thing I can be happy about is that I can watch her quietly when it falls in the middle of the night." Maybe Sato never thought I was around her, but that's a great gift for a dead person. ”

"Do you regret the bomb disposal accident three years ago?"

"I've heard that you sacrificed a person in exchange for the bomb message of the Red Cross Hospital." Ogata sat on the ground and looked at Matsuda Jinpei.

Matsuda Jinpei shrugged his shoulders: "I can't talk about regrets or regrets about that kind of thing, anyway, I firmly believe that when I am alive, the choice I made is right, so that I will not inflict more unnecessary pain on myself." ”

"You're thinking clearly." Ogata smiled.

Matsuda Jinhei couldn't help but glance at him: "It's better to care about your own life and death first." ”

"The gangsters created the same scene, and you were the same person you are now. But he never dreamed that he would be a man and a ghost when he competed with him now. Ogata chuckled softly.

Matsuda Jinhei was noncommittal: "I'll help you defuse the bomb, because I don't want Sato to suffer any longer." Only if you leave here alive will the request just said be valid! ”

After speaking, his eyes looked at the bomb installed above the elevator, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Sure enough, it is still mercury mercury!" ”

Suddenly, Matsuda Jinhei seemed to remember something: "There is one more thing I want to sue you, the gangsters set up a bugging device in this bomb"

"No problem." Ogata suddenly pointed to the side of the elevator, and the yellow paper was constantly fainting as the lights flickered.

Matsuda Jinhei was stunned and looked at it in amazement: "Although I am a ghost, it is the first time I have seen a charm. ”

"It's just a mute note that blocks hearing, and the effect can last for about half an hour, and the conversation between us can't be heard by the gangster who uses the listener to collect information." Ogata replied casually.

Long before the elevator fell and Sato's cell phone called, Ogata attached a mute charm that he had with him to the metal wall of the elevator, creating a soundproof area.

Because he knows that the gangsters have the intention of fooling the police, just like a child treats a toy, he must be in a situation of absolute mastery before he can lay out and design!

Therefore, the eavesdropping device is a necessary setting for improvisation

Near the Tokyo Tower, which has been under martial law and lockdown, a mysterious man in a trench coat and a sunhat, holding a walkie-talkie-like device in his hand, stands on the street outside the crowd, his face slightly gloomy in the shadow of the brim.

"Damn, how?" He looked at the device in his hand and let out an annoyed sound.

As he continued to adjust the signal, there was only a sound of electricity coming from the microphone, as if the machine had broken down.

His eyes were revealed, and he looked at the Tokyo Tower not far away, and snorted coldly.

"The clock should be near, damn cops. Let's all die! ”

The voice fell. An ugly laugh erupted in his throat.

I saw someone coming. He wrapped his trench coat tightly and quickened his pace.

And at this moment, Sato has come to the inside of Tokyo Tower, about the fifteenth floor, that is, the elevator door where Ogata was trapped, and she arrived with several professional bomb disposal experts from the Metropolitan Police Department.

They have already prepared the tools to defuse the 'mercury mercury' time bomb this time, and are planning to dismantle the elevator partition on the upper floor through guò. Delivered to Ogata who is trapped in the elevator hall.

"Ogata, can you hear me?" Miwako Sato didn't use her phone, but directly used her own voice to try to transmit it to Ogata who was trapped in the elevator.

But after a long time, no one responded to her.

There was no way, so Sato took out his phone again and dialed Ogata's number

Ogata didn't look like a victim in danger in the elevator at all, but instead chatted with Matsuda Jinpei on the other side as if he was nothing. Because he knows that it is useless to be in a hurry. It's ridiculous to defuse a bomb with bare hands.

So. He waited for Sato to deliver the tools to him to defuse the bomb.

At this time, the phone vibrated in his pocket, and Ogata did not hesitate and picked it up directly. The countdown to the bomb should be getting closer and closer, and he doesn't dare to hold it up now, missing the best time to defuse the bomb.

"Ogata, I'm just outside the elevator." After Sato connected his mobile phone, he went straight to the point.

"Oh, are the bomb disposal tools ready?"

"Well, as long as you climb up to the elevator and get ready for handover." Sato hurriedly replied.

Hearing this, Ogata let out an "um" and hung up the phone.

He stood up and looked at the silence charm attached to the inside of the elevator, and it seemed that Sato had no way of conveying Guò's own voice.

"Matsuda, I'll go up and have a look." Ogata said.

Matsuda Jinpei nodded slightly, he didn't have a physical body, so many things were still done by Ogata himself.

Ogata stood on tiptoe and stretched out his palm, and in Matsuda Jinpei's startled gaze, a silvery-white light flashed, and at the moment of refraction of the dazzling gaze, it seemed that the sharp cutting sound was fleeting.

Immediately afterwards, with a force on his toes, the ripples of the gang qi echoed on the ground, and the whole person was like a smart ape, with the help of a bouncing force far beyond ordinary people, he actually jumped to the top of the elevator along the neat circular incision.

At the moment of landing, Ogata's palms and toes hit the ground at the same time, and he approached the time bomb that was counting down.

The mercury mercury is slightly shaky, but it has not yet fused

Ogata breathed a sigh of relief, this is him, and if he was someone else, even if he could climb up, the mercury mercury would detonate because of the shaking.

"Sato."

Ogata connected her phone and commanded, "Now use the rope to gently pull the tool down." I'll answer below. ”

"Okay, I got it."

Sato hung up the phone and told someone to do it.

After a few seconds, Ogata saw a light appear above, followed by a toolbox, pulled by the rope, slowly moving downward.

Ogata knew that the police officers above who were carrying the tools to him must be nervous, because if the tools hit the inner wall of the elevator floor, they might cause vibrations below and cause the bomb to detonate.

When it reached Ogata's hand, he gently tugged on the rope, and it was only then that he learned that the tool had arrived along the way.

Sato breathed a sigh of relief, and Ogata had just begun the bomb defusal work.

"Jinping, what should I do now?"

Ogata called softly, the master in the elevator room.

At this time, he was faced with a bomb, and although he was good at transformation and physics, it didn't mean that Ogata could disarm the bomb by dividing it by two. It's like a domino, take a card and fall in its entirety. And if you dismantle the wrong line, the entire Tokyo Tower will be reduced to ashes!

"Here we are." Matsuda Jinpei suddenly appeared at Ogata's side.

Ogata laughed, "I'm glad I knew you were a ghost." ”

"Hey, hey." Matsuda Jinpei seems to feel proud that he is a ghost who scares people for the first time.

"The tools are here, what's next?"

Ogata opened the toolbox, and it was densely packed with neat screwdrivers and wire pliers, as well as something he didn't recognize.

When the tools were exposed to Matsuda's eyes, Ogata noticed that some special emotion seemed to flash across his face.

He put his sunglasses back on. Ogata, on the other hand, held his breath. Improve your concentration as much as possible.

Coordination between them. It has to be seamless.

Otherwise, you're joking with your own life and death!

"This one is the wire responsible for the reaction of the light source, and it needs to be cut!" Matsuda pointed his finger at an inconspicuous thread in the bomb device.

Hearing this, Ogata didn't drag the mud and water, but grabbed a handy tool and cut the thread short with a 'click'. He believed in Matsuda's choice, an expert in the world who knew this bomb in the world. Except for the gangsters of the installation, it may be him.

"Next is this one" Matsuda Jinpei had the meaning of pointing out the country, his eyes swept over the bomb lines, and quickly explained to Ogata to carry it out.

Well!

Ogata's hand was quick, and he followed Matsuda Jinpei's words and acted immediately.

Because of the countdown, it has entered the last three minutes!

Sato handed over the phone to a bomb disposal expert beside her, her face was very nervous, and her whole nerves were tense, because this time was a matter of life and death for Ogata who was trapped in the elevator. And all the colleagues who are working hard for the safety of Tokyo Tower at this moment.

"Hello? I'm a search section, the violence team."

"What?"

Wearing a pair of glasses. The middle-aged bomb disposal expert in a police uniform was so shocked that his face changed and his mouth opened wide.

When Sato saw this Metropolitan Police Department senior like this, he thought something had changed, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Well, he said he didn't need my help, and he was almost done." He said to Sato in disbelief.

Hearing this, Sato was also dumbfounded, she clearly remembered that Ogata just said that bomb disposal was not what he was good at. But how do you explain it now?

Pure modesty?

But this guy can do anything!

"Give me my phone." Sato took the phone from his hand.

"Ogata, is it really demolished?" She asked nervously.

"Well, the last two lines are missing!"

Ogata exhaled and said to Sato with a smile, "There are still two minutes left in the countdown, I don't think you have to worry." With that, he gave Matsuda Jinpei, who was sitting opposite, a thumbs up.

Matsuda Jinhei smiled back and didn't say anything more.

"The last two threads, are they in danger?" Sato suddenly thought of something and asked.

Ogata's gaze fell on the bomb device, the last red and blue thread. Although Matsuda Jinhei had already told him about the order of the cut, he did not do it for a long time.

Because on the device for bundling bombs, in addition to the eavesdropping device, there is also a display.

And this display screen is the reason why Matsuda Jinpei chose to sacrifice himself in the first place.

The gangster will make a prompt on the display screen in the last three seconds of the countdown, and the content of the reminder is another place where he has set the bomb!

Therefore, if the circuit leads of the bomb are cut in advance, it will cause a prompt on the display screen, and there is no way to appear.

"No, don't worry." Ogata comforted Sato and hung up the phone.

Matsuda Chen Ping looked at Ogata with a complicated expression and sighed: "What is your choice?" ”

"Cut it, or wait for the last three seconds of prompts to be tricked to death?" Ogata seemed to be talking to Matsuda Jinpei, and it was like talking to himself alone.

Choice! Painful choice!

It's a judgment between life and death!

If he chooses the former, he will survive, but he will not be able to kill more innocent citizens in another place where the gangsters set up the bomb. Even if he survives, he will be a selfish sinner.

And choosing the latter, just like Matsuda Jinpei. Although he was called a hero, he became a poor lonely ghost. And more importantly, there are other people besides him in this tower.

"Matsuda, tell me honestly, do you hate this gangster?"

Ogata suddenly asked the man in front of him.

Well? Matsuda Jinpei looked at the timer of the bomb device, 60,59 There was less than a minute left, and he would actually ask himself such a question. And it sounds like it has nothing to do with this choice.

Mindset matters!

Although he is very young, he is extraordinarily calm. This kind of personality is very suitable for bomb disposal work.

"When I first became this ghost, I hated. But now, this desire is not very strong, and it can even be said to be smoothed out. Matsuda Jinhei's answer was very indifferent.

Ogata nodded, his eyes flickering.

He's betting, betting that in the last minute, he'll get the result he wants!

In the palm of his hand, he unconsciously held a piece of jade pendant. It was Menyu who had helped him save the day several times.

If he really loses his way out, he will let him take the bomb he detonated with him to other worlds, and then the explosion will not affect the people inside Tokyo Tower.

The thought of that fool Sato standing outside the elevator door waiting for him to come out made Ogata feel the need to do so.

In this world, if your value is established by abandoning your friends and loved ones, then what is the difference between it and the walking dead?

But that's the worst-case scenario!

Ogata is betting on another possibility, and that possibility comes from Matsuda Jinpei!

"I want to know the identity of the gangster, Matsuda."

After a moment of silence, Ogata's eyes reflected a fine light, and the countdown to the bomb had stopped at the last 35 seconds!

He bets that Matsuda had developed hatred for the gangsters during the metamorphosis of death becoming a ghost.

And the chains of hatred will implicate the murderer who killed him in the first place!

This is what Ogata mentioned in the ancient books that Ogata obtained, and the first ability that a ghost acquires is the ability to perceive.

They have two perceptions, one is a loved one and the other is an enemy!

"Huh?" Matsuda Jinpei looked into Ogata's eyes.

"Tell me what you know, it will help me and Sato." Ogata said in a deep voice.

Matsuda Chen Ping did not hesitate any longer, and decisively said the identity of the gangster he knew.

The moment he said the name of the gangster, Ogata knew he had made the right bet!

10,9,8,7

As the numbers on the display screen scrolled, there was an eerie silence inside and outside the elevator.

The final 'tick' sound is like a mysterious music played by the Grim Reaper, which makes people sweat and their hearts beat faster.

In Matsuda's stunned gaze, Ogata pulled out a pen from the pocket on the inside of his jacket, as well as a blank piece of paper!

"Hiss!"

The tip of the fountain pen quickly swiped over the small piece of neatly folded white paper in the palm of the hand.

His eyes seemed to burst with a surging confidence!

Outside the elevator door, all the police officers have changed into protective suits, and although everyone will be hopeless in this outfit, there is only so much they can do now.

Miwako Sato stood outside the elevator door, looking at the metal door that blocked her from the elevator, clenching her fists, desperately telling herself to calm down.

At this time, we must believe in Ogata, he is a man who constantly creates zào miracles and refreshes people's cognition!

He never said big things, and since he said that there was a way to deal with this bomb, there should be no problem!

"Officer Sato, there are only a few seconds left until the countdown to the bomb detonates!" One of the officers swallowed his saliva and stared nervously at the elevator, even sweating on his forehead.

In the last few seconds, Sato's eyes looked at the mobile phone in his hand that was completely motionless.

If Ogata had disarmed the threat of the bomb, he would have been the first to notify her, but now there has been no response. (To be continued......)
