She raised her head in disbelief, thinking that she had a hallucination before her death. She saw the person she most wanted to meet again at the end of her life, and she walked towards a quiet death with peace of mind.
"Don't be in a daze, put this on quickly, you don't have enough time, you have to act fast!"
However, the man grabbed Ritsuko's wrist, and his strong and warm palm showed that this was a living reality, not a fantasy.
"You, why are you here..." Holding the thick protective suit that was suddenly thrust into her hands, Ritsuko didn't look at it at all, but still stared at the person in front of her, muttering to herself.
He spat out two words:
"——Zhang Ke."
"What??!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ke was so surprised that he almost fell off the hospital bed. He stared at Ritsuko's face to make sure that the other party was not telling nonsense and making up stories. Then he asked in disbelief, "You mean, the one who came to save you in the end?"
Is it me?"
"Yes, it sounds inexplicable, but my surprise at that time was hundreds or thousands of times more than yours now, because that past was so dreamy that I still find it unbelievable until now." Ritsuko.
smiled and said:
"But, since I am indeed still alive and can stand here and tell the past to you who have lost your memory, it means that all of this really happened."
"But...how did I enter that secret passage? And how did I save you from the contiguous bomb? What's even more strange is...why on earth did I go to such a remote place!" Zhang Ke
Several questions were raised in succession.
"These can be explained, just listen to me..." Ritsuko looked at the clear blue sky outside the window, her voice a little distant.
"I'll explain to you later. It's too late now. This is an explosion-proof suit. As long as you are not in the center of the detonation, it should not be a big problem against flying gravel, impact aftermath and stray bullets -" Zhang Ke said as he said
While sitting, he forced Ritsuko to wear explosion-proof clothing:
"I just hope that this tunnel will not collapse too fast, otherwise if it is buried alive, it will be useless even if it is explosion-proof. But Sister Lan thought about it carefully, and she said that there should not be too many bombs buried near this tunnel, because
This is the original retreat route used by Black Crow himself, and it won’t leave too many hidden dangers, so we still have time to escape.”
"Sister Lan? Is that the woman named Lan Yinghua on the speaker?" After putting on the heavy explosion-proof suit, Ritsuko felt that her voice suddenly became much softer, so she quickly raised her voice and asked, "Do you two know each other?
?”
"Well...Sister Lan is my former senior. Although we haven't contacted each other for a long time, and I don't quite understand why she suddenly came to me for help, she said that you might be in danger and you can't get away, so you have to
I came to help rescue you and gave me these two sets of explosion-proof suits." Zhang Ke nodded and said, and in a blink of an eye, both of them were fully armed.
"We don't need to be afraid of bombs now. Let's leave quickly -" Zhang grabbed Ritsuko's hand and was about to run, but she quickly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, this is not the direction to go back. The secret door to the room is not over here."
"When you entered this secret passage, the door you opened had long been automatically locked. In fact, there is a hidden secret passage here. Sister Lan also told me, and that's where I came in." Zhang
Ke couldn't help but pull Ritsuko and ran forward. He didn't stop until he was in front of a wall, and then stepped on a floor tile five times with his right foot.
A stone door suddenly opened. Zhang Ke pushed Ritsuko in first, and then jumped in. The two of them were about to run up, but Zhang Ke suddenly stopped in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Ritsuko asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"It's a bit strange why the explosion noise is getting smaller and smaller." Zhang Ke frowned and said, "Didn't you notice that the center of the explosion seems to be getting further and further away from this tunnel? There is almost no bomb buried or buried near the secret tunnel.
Being detonated, it’s almost as if we deliberately avoided this place.”
"Uh... As you just said, because this tunnel is also the only way for the Black Crow to retreat, there are fewer bombs buried... right?" Ritsuko guessed.
"No, that's not right. It's understandable that there are too few bombs, but we must not detonate any of them. Otherwise, wouldn't it be impossible to blow you up in the tunnel? So what's the use of these so-called bombs and silencers? We must ensure that you
Only by dying can we prevent the leakage of information!" Zhang Ken denied.
"That's right...it doesn't mean the bombing hasn't reached here yet, right?"
"Who knows, but it's okay, it gives us enough time to escape, let's move on!"
Far away on Hidden Dragon Avenue, waiting for Ritsuko's return, only Ye Suling was left. Colleagues had already escorted the suspects and drug addicts back, and the remaining family members were also brought back to the police station.
Ask about the situation.
The police building will probably be extremely busy tonight. Many people will have to work overtime to handle this big case. I should have gone back earlier to help.
And in order to prevent being affected by the possible explosion, everyone must evacuate to a certain safe distance. This range is the largest area designated for safety reasons, so many people in the surrounding villages and towns have left.
Only he was unwilling to stay where he was, stubbornly choosing to believe that Ritsuko would definitely come back. As the captain of the special case team, no one present could order him to move, so he had no choice but to stay.
This deserted town, shrouded in lonely streetlights and hazy moonlight, looked like a ghost ruins.
But Ye Suling was not afraid. What she was most afraid of was that the hill in front of her suddenly collapsed amidst the rumbling thunder that tore the sky apart.
It was clear that several minutes had passed since the scheduled explosion time, but nothing happened, not even a tiny spark was seen.
Although she didn't know what happened, it did make Ye Suling feel relieved. She believed that Ritsuko must have found a way to prevent the explosion, or reached some agreement with the Black Crow.
However, heaven always does not fulfill people's wishes.
Just when Ye Suling was thinking about whether to go underground to see if Ritsuko needed any help, she only heard an explosion in her ears, like someone was setting up a cannon to bombard a mountain, but the sound was louder than
The cannon is even more piercing, louder and more terrifying, making one's heart go to pieces.
——When the explosion came, Ye Suling quickly found a bunker to hide and observed the situation in front of her through the gap.
But the hills not far away were not blasted into pieces as she expected, causing rocks to fly and landslides to crack. Instead, they were directly pressed down while maintaining their intact form. The land sank in an instant, just like God pulling it out with an invisible hand.
I raised this hill and used it as a seal, pressing it deeply into the ground like seal mud.
And this also ruined Ye Suling's last hope.
——Maybe one person can escape by relying on luck and alertness in the flying sand and rocks, but absolutely no one can escape such an exaggerated wide-area fall. It is simply like a dimensionality-reducing blow to a small ant falling from the sky.
