Chapter 120 Maybe there is a third option to rely on
A white Citroën car was parked outside a coffee near the Yoshioka 2-chome intersection. The man with slightly long hair sitting in the car was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He was supporting the steering wheel with one hand and tapping his fingers rhythmically.
As he stood, his eyes always fell on the red phone booth not far away.
His name is Takigawa Tetsuya, and he is currently an unemployed vagrant. Because he has no money, he makes bombs and threatens the police to provide ransom. Therefore, his purpose is very pure - he just wants to spend some money.
But for a bomber who threatened the police, what he is doing now can be described as blatant. He did not choose to observe the transaction location in the dark, but directly parked the car aside and watched openly.
"Tetsuya, is it really okay for us to be here? The police won't be hiding somewhere to observe our every move, right?"
The man sitting next to Takigawa Tetsuya was wearing a baseball cap. Judging from his face, people who didn't know thought he would be an honest man who lived a diligent life, but who would have thought that he was an accomplice of the bomber?
Woolen cloth.
"Migui, you can rest assured, I have a backup plan, and we are very lucky." Takigawa Tetsuya thought of the young man who just talked to him, and the tone of his words was full of joy, which was obvious.
I am very satisfied with the hostage I sent to my door.
Machida Yaki was a little confused about what his elder brother meant. He blinked in confusion and said:
"Tetsuya, what does this have to do with our luck? Speaking of which, I went to the shrine to draw a lot yesterday, and the result was bad luck. There is no luck at all."
"You can read the signatures like those at the shrine and have fun. Today, the goddess of luck is on our side. Otherwise, why would a young police academy student be sent as a hostage? The police will definitely be concerned about this.
Don’t dare to act easily.”
Takigawa Tetsuya adjusted his headset and listened to the conversation coming from the bug, and this time he directly bought one hostage and got one free. I didn't expect that the blond and dark boy was quite brave. I'm afraid these two are still police officers.
The outstanding students of the school are really making a lot of money.
He looked sideways at his good partner and noticed that Machida Yaki was still nervous, so he had to pull off the earphone cord and directly play what he heard in the bug.
——"You said what if the police don't do what I want and the bomber detonates the bomb?"
——"What else can we do? We don't even have protective clothing on us now. It must have been blown up to nothing."
Machida Yaki couldn't help but was stunned after hearing this conversation. He turned his head and looked at Takigawa Tetsuya, his tone seemed a little anxious:
"Tetsuya, these two people sound like children. You wouldn't let children be used as hostages, would you?!"
"Why are you looking so nervous? Don't worry, I won't detonate this bomb. I'm just pretending to make the police worry. Otherwise, do you think the police will let us take the ransom?"
Hearing what Takigawa Tetsuya said, Machida Yaki breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he just wanted money and did not want anyone to be injured or die because of their actions.
But just when he raised his watch to check how many minutes were left in the transaction time, a loud noise suddenly came from the eavesdropping device, and one of the teenagers could be heard shouting... What was this sound?!
"Tetsuya, what's that sound? Did a bomb explode?" Machida Yaki's whole body became tense. He couldn't accept the thought of someone dying because of their actions.
Takigawa Tetsuya looked at the mobile phone bound to the bomb and found that there was no problem. He frowned and said:
"I don't know, but this is definitely not an explosion. It's more like the sound of an elevator falling? Could it be that something happened to these two boys while they were climbing up the elevator shaft to defuse the bomb? Tsk, they are brave enough. It seems from the previous conversation
It’s all a deception.”
"ah?"
Takigawa Tetsuya patiently explained what the two hostages had done. It was obvious that their plan was to secretly defuse the bomb and then contact the police, so that when they went to the phone booth to collect the ransom, they would be arrested.
Machida Yaki's eyes widened and he did not expect that these two police academy students were so powerful. He looked around in a suspicious state, worried that there were already policemen watching around.
After all, when faced with his own interests, the criminal disguised as an honest man will only look at himself. He asked in a low voice with trembling lips:
"Then, Tetsuya, what should we do now? If we detonate the bomb, there will be no hostages!"
Takigawa Toru calmly flipped the bangs on his forehead, his shrewd-looking eyes flashing with confidence. While playing with the mobile phone bound to the bomb, he comforted his accomplices:
"I had already considered that the cunning police would arrange for someone to sneak into the apartment to defuse the bomb, so I designed two bombs from the beginning. When the police were complacent about the success of their plan, I would detonate the bomb in this cafe.
, this is the first stop on our escape route. As long as it is detonated, we can easily block the path of pursuit, so you don’t have to worry. If they dismantle this one, it won’t be a big problem.”
"Tetsuya, you are really smart. If only I were like you, I always hold you back."
"You are my partner. There is no such thing as holding back. It is trading time in ten minutes."
Takigawa Tetsuya reached out and plugged in the earphones of the eavesdropping equipment again, but he did not continue listening. Whether the bomb was successfully defused or not, or whether these two smart-aleck police students could survive, was not important to him.
Therefore, there is no need to continue listening. It is better to deal with the matter at hand.
——
At 14:17 in the afternoon, the elevator entrance on the 21st floor of the high-end apartment.
Jiang Guling finally managed to pry open the elevator door. He didn't know whether it was because he used too much force or because of the previous bomb. After he heard the sound of some parts falling, he saw someone standing in front of him.
The image of Fujiwara Yuu falling rapidly above the elevator.
He put his hands on both sides of the elevator door, lowered his head and shouted loudly towards Fujiwara Yu who was still falling:
"Idiot, grab the cable quickly!
"
After regaining consciousness, Fujiwara Yu quickly grabbed the broken cable with his bare hands and flew into the elevator shaft. The elevator fell directly from the 20th floor to the first floor... which meant that if he couldn't hold on and let go of his right hand, it would unlock.
A shattered ending.
"Hold on, I'll find a rope to pull you up!"
——"Fujiwara, I will be back on the 7th of next month. Do you have any gifts you want?"
Thinking of the phone call his father made to him a few days ago, how could he die here before he saw his father?
——"Then let's set off on the evening of the 7th? I'm looking forward to seeing Fujiwara-kun in a police uniform!"
I have promised her that I will take her to Dorobika Paradise, how can I break my promise... and I haven't confessed to her yet.
Fujiwara Yu gritted his teeth and grabbed the broken cable. The inertia of his body's fall made his palms feel burning pain, but these were all bearable because he wanted to live and he still had many things to do, so he had to endure it.
.
He kicked his feet to the side, tightened the strength in his waist and abdomen, and slowly climbed upwards. The sweat on his forehead dripped down his temples, and he was swallowed up by the bottomless elevator shaft. At this time, the only thing he could rely on was himself.
Ability and firm will.
"Fujiwara!"
"Catch it!"
Fujiwara Yu raised his eyes and looked at the rope thrown towards him. He freed his left hand to pull in the rope, which was the hope of life.
Maybe there is a third option that you can rely on, which is the benefit of having friends.
