Chapter 209

Pramia originally thought that she didn't care what the other person said, as she was determined to kill them.

But it has to be said that this time, Han Chuan Shenliu really had her figured out, making her anxious and impatient to find out what was going on.

Just as Pramia was shocked, confused, and doubtful, waiting for what was to come, Usoya Saiki paused for a moment and slowly said.

"Never mind, it's not important."

"This is very important! Explain yourself clearly!!!"

Pramia's composure immediately crumbled.

How could this be?! She really wants to know what's going on! How could that person, who wrote her such a letter, not know who she is?!

And isn't he a member of that organization? Then why is he unaware of the organization's affairs?

Could this be a setup?

If she was framed, who did she see on the surveillance footage?

But Usoya Saiki refused to explain: "It's exactly what you think."

"So you know exactly what I'm thinking?! Now that you've said all that, just explain it clearly!"

The system was also puzzled: "Didn't you always like to ramble on before the prisoner dies? Why didn't you say anything this time?"

Usakabe Saiki calmly explained: "It's not that I like it; it depends on the situation. For someone like Pramia, not explaining things clearly will only torment her more."

system:【……】

Good people always find ways to make people die with their eyes wide open, and you keep calling yourself a law-abiding citizen.

Since Usakata Saiki refused to explain clearly, Pramia could only speculate based on the existing information, frantically contributing her suspicions. However, she couldn't stop working, so she could only fill in the blanks with her own imagination while questioning him.

"Is this all you want to ask? Since you already know he knows nothing and can't say anything, why ask such a question? What exactly is your so-called personal purpose? It can't just be to find out if he was tortured before he died, can it?"

Usoya Saiki: "Yes, that's why."

Pramia: "...???"

Pramia stared at him blankly, seemingly wondering why he wasn't playing by the rules—why would a big shot like you bother with such a small fry? Couldn't you come up with something like trying to recruit me to destroy the world?!

No, that's definitely not his real purpose. He was probably just going along with what she said to cover something up.

So Pramia took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Now that things have come to this, is there any need to hide anything?"

"You probably want to ask me other questions, right?" Usakabe Saiki calmly threw back Pramia's previous words, and it certainly had the desired effect.

Although Pramia was very concerned about the meaning of those words and what was wrong with the surveillance footage she had seen with her own eyes, she was more concerned about how her identity had been exposed.

If this problem isn't solved, no matter how many identities she changes or where she goes, she'll likely be discovered eventually. A permanent solution is needed.

“…Alright, then it’s my turn.” Pramia uttered a line that sounded like something out of a turn-based game, frowning as she asked, “How exactly did your organization discover my identity?”

"This?" Usakabe Saiki replied coldly, "It's a secret."

Pramia: "…………"

At this moment, Pramia finally realized one thing—just as she had come with the intention of killing Sukagawa Shinryu, Sukagawa Shinryu had no sincerity in making a deal.

Since that's the case, don't blame her for being impolite and bringing her backup plan, which she had prepared overnight, to the forefront.

"Your fellow police officers are still unaware that you're a corrupt cop, aren't they?" Pramia's tone shifted, her hostility finally becoming undisguised. "Aren't you afraid I'll expose your identity with this utterly insincere attitude towards dealing?"

He used her identity to threaten her all the time, but now the tables have turned, and she's finally found someone she can threaten back in the same way!

I don't know what this guy was thinking. He's clearly not clean himself, yet he dared to come and meet her...

Pramia had some concerns and doubts, but she felt that she was well prepared. Perhaps the other party was too smart, so he had been having a smooth ride for so long that he didn't take people seriously and didn't care about her little tricks, thinking that they wouldn't affect him... In that case, it was only natural that she would seize the opportunity to retaliate.

Usakabe played with the gun in his hand: "How can you expose my identity? By reporting me? You probably can't imagine how many reports the Metropolitan Police Department has sent about me being a corrupt cop, but no matter what I do, my colleagues write my apologies for me, and I don't have to lift a finger."

Pramia: "…………"

As a foreign criminal, Pramia couldn't help but feel heartbroken for the Japanese people: What kind of garbage Metropolitan Police Department is this?! The public has such discerning eyes, you don't take one report seriously, and you still don't take so many reports seriously?!

They even helped write the self-criticism! Could they actually be covering for Hanchuan Shenliu?!

Have the Japanese police really degenerated to this level?!

Even the French police, who go on strike all the time, are better than you guys!!!

After being shocked for a few seconds by the darkness of the Japanese police, Pramia finally recovered and bravely continued to deliver her lines.

"I've placed bombs in several locations in Tokyo, and I've attached notes next to them. When I press a button, the bomb's alarm will go off, attracting a lot of attention, and then it will explode shortly afterward... Guess what will happen next?"

Passersby attracted by the alarm will open packages or fire extinguisher boxes and find bombs and letters attached to them.

There will always be curious people who open the letter before the police arrive to see its contents. In the letter, she did her best to smear Han Chuan Shenliu, saying that she was persecuted by Han Chuan Shenliu and had no choice but to resort to this drastic measure.

Even if some people think that the prisoner's letter is slander, they will still care whether what is said in the letter is true or false.

She even planted a bomb next to a large newspaper office, hoping to attract the attention of reporters and the like.

No matter how much the police want to protect Hanchuan Fumio, if passersby or reporters see this, it will be impossible to completely control the situation through the press club in the current era of the rise of social media. At that time, public opinion will definitely lean towards investigating Hanchuan Fumio.

Given that she will detonate those bombs, causing huge losses, if someone has to be chosen to take the blame, Han Chuan Shenliu is the most suitable person.

The organization behind Han Chuan Shenliu would most likely choose to silence him if they found it too troublesome to protect him.

"If hundreds of people are killed or injured, and the bustling downtown buildings are destroyed by the explosion, can your organization, which has bribed people in the Metropolitan Police Department, still cover up these losses?"

Pramia feigned curiosity but actually threatened, saying, "As for my identity, it doesn't matter what your backup plans are, it's not the first time. There are many criminals in this world whose true identities have been exposed but who still can't be caught. Why can't you include me? In comparison, you are the one who should be hiding yourself better, right? Perhaps you should consider changing your attitude now."

Bo Yezaki said casually, "Then go ahead and press it."

Pramia: "...? You think I'm bluffing?"

"No, it's just that I don't care. You can press it if you want."

Bo Yezaki stayed up all night with her, so he knew exactly what she had done and cleaned up the mess early on.

Now he felt that Pramia was talking more than he had imagined, and he was confused as to why she hadn't made a move yet. He could only add fuel to the fire himself: "I can't tell you how I found out your identity with a threat of this level."

Pramia was initially taken aback by the guy's unbridled attitude, but then she was overjoyed.

He let it slip!

No wonder the organization didn't take any further action after discovering her whereabouts... As expected, it was actually Hanchuan Shenliu who discovered her whereabouts all along! Everyone else got their information from him!

So, the guy she couldn't get anything out of him no matter how she interrogated him was actually framed by Hanchuan Shenliu!

Although she still didn't quite understand what she was seeing on the surveillance footage, she had a general idea of ​​what was going on—as long as she killed Han Chuan Shenliu, she could rest easy.

As for guessing wrong and then having more people come knocking on her door, she'll just deal with them one by one; she's already prepared for the worst.

“Fine, you’re not afraid, are you? Then I’ll press it.” Pramia pressed the start button without hesitation in front of Usaku Saiki, secretly pleased that Usaku Saiki was too arrogant and presumptuous, actually letting her succeed so easily.

I thought that when we got to this step, a fight would break out again!

The moment she pressed the button, not only did the bombs she had planted elsewhere begin their installation process, but the bombs she had planted earlier that day before Han Chuan Shenliu arrived were also activated.

Pramia was certainly not comfortable with the location chosen by the other party, so of course she had to come and check it out beforehand.

She came last night but didn't find anything, and she didn't leave anything behind either, so as to avoid the other party discovering anything when they came to check. She deliberately chose today to temporarily plant the bomb to maximize the success of her plan.

The bomb was planted behind the door on the rooftop.

Based on her deduction, as long as she opened fire as soon as the other party entered the room, it would be good enough if the other party didn't use the door as a barrier in order to avoid it or something. They certainly wouldn't close the door as casually as when they entered the room. Even if they did, she could find a way to divert their attention and control their movements to stay near the door.

The seemingly peaceful dialogue was also for this purpose: to keep Han Chuan Shenliu calm and prevent him from remembering to close the door and check the entrance—he might try to escape at any moment, and if he had normal intelligence, he wouldn't close the door.

Pramia had been standing in a relatively safe corner. The bomb might blow up the rooftop, but she had prepared escape ropes and other safety equipment, enough to allow her to escape to the building below or even the building across the street.

As for Shinryu Hanakawa, who was at the epicenter of the explosion... all we can do is wish him good luck.

Usakabe Saiki could roughly guess what Pramia was thinking.

He kicked the rooftop door, revealing the bomb that was very conspicuous in the [Omnipotent Navigation] app, and asked, "Are you waiting for this bomb to explode?"

Pramia's expression finally changed.

This is a bomb I just planted not long ago. This guy was blocked by the door when he came in. How did he know there was a bomb there?!

Since you already know, why are you still so calm? Could it be that you were prepared in advance?

Pramia sneered: "Even if you already know, what can you do? You can't escape it."

As she spoke, she fired a shot directly at the bomb.

She designed the bomb herself. The device contained two liquids that would cause a violent explosion when they were mixed together. She had originally intended it to allow time in case she wasn't in a safe area, but now it seemed to be a flaw—but it didn't matter. As long as she just fired a shot to detonate it, there would be no need for a countdown.

Pramia was very confident in her marksmanship. After firing a shot, she immediately did a somersault and jumped to the edge of the rooftop. To avoid the superhuman feat of being able to aim at her even in the midst of the explosion, she launched the hook of her rope gun down to the floor below instead of the opposite floor, intending to swing away from the blind spot of the Japanese.

Even as Pramia's body was suspended in mid-air, she still had some doubts.

Why don't I feel any sense of upheaval? According to the timeline, the rooftop should have exploded along with Hanchuan Shenliu by now.

But it didn't matter, she decided to escape first. With that thought, Pramia let her body swing with the momentum, trying to reach the nearest floor.

But almost instantly, that floor suddenly exploded.

The shockwave from the explosion not only loosened the anchor points of the rope gun, but also blew Pramia's body outward.

With nowhere to land, she could only watch helplessly as she plummeted rapidly through the air.

Pramia remained puzzled until he landed.

The flames from the explosion look like her bomb.

But wasn't her bomb planted somewhere else last night? Why did it suddenly explode here?

What exactly did Hanchuan Shenliu do...?

Thump!

The sound of a person hitting the ground was drowned out by the sound of an explosion.

Unlike Pramia, Usoppei didn't have any concerns. After Pramia ran away, he directly chose the safest building across the street and swung across using a rope gun.

Now he stood in a safe area, looking at the abandoned building burning in the explosion across the way, and sighed.

"The buyer of the new land will thank me. I saved him so much on demolition fees. There's no one better than me."

System: [...? Is this the important point? What are you planning to do next?]

"What else can we do but call the police, of course!" said Bo Yezaki. "I'm a law-abiding citizen, you know."

Extra chapter tonight

.

Pramia died from his own bomb, he was certain.

.

Thin Leaf: I just want to know how horribly that bomber died.

Pramia: I don't believe you. You must have other motives!

.

The bomb on the rooftop didn't explode because the item Thin Leaf drew was useful.
