Chapter 49: Rebirth in the Fire
The Skytree was only a few minutes away, so they simply got off the bus and walked over. The Skytree was not affected by the explosion and was still open as usual. To be precise, it was precisely because of the explosion that more people came to the Skytree. Everyone stood in front of the huge French windows, watching the black smoke covering the sky not far away.
"It's so scary! How could someone drop a bomb in Tokyo?"
"We must catch him quickly, otherwise it will be very dangerous."
People inside the Skytree were holding their cell phones, talking to each other, and looking worried.
"Bourbon, can you defuse a bomb?" He Jing Yasheng asked quietly. He had already found the first place, but he couldn't determine the location of the bomb. "Or can you notify your police friend to come and look for it?"
"What did you find?" Bourbon didn't expect that he and Jing Yayoi had just walked up to the observation deck and determined that there was a bomb here.
Of course, it was because the souls of almost all the staff on this floor were about to leave their bodies. In other words, if Kazuki Yayoi hadn't intervened, everyone here would have died in the bomb attack. They should be thankful that Kazuki Yayoi's ability to weave lifelines had improved significantly, and he was just interested in doing a test. Otherwise, even if they rescued these staff today, they would all die within a month for some unknown reason.
"Well, I don't know how to tell you. Can you understand it as my intuition? If you don't believe it, you can go and look for it. It's probably in that range." He Jing Yayoi pointed to the toilet. The only surviving staff member was the farthest from the toilet, so by reverse deduction, it can be concluded that the bomb should be installed near the toilet.
Amuro Toru didn't really believe in his intuition. He felt that Kazukage Yayoi must know something, but it was just inconvenient to talk about it. He glanced at Kazukage Yayoi, who was thinking with his head down. His fingers were trembling quickly, as if he was typing on a keyboard, but from Amuro's perspective, there was nothing.
"Okay, I'll go check it out first."
He and Jing Yayoi connected to the world line. Fortunately, the explosion did not affect the progress of the world line, and the number of people affected by the explosion was not large, only the unlucky staff of the Skytree. Fortunately, it was still within his ability, and he could try to save these people. He had obtained the power of creation for so long, but he had never had the opportunity to practice it.
"Well...you go check it first. I have something else to do." He and Jing Yayoi had to find a deserted place to create a lifeline. They couldn't follow Amuro Toru to look for bombs. What's more, if people were the only ones who died here, it didn't matter whether they looked for bombs in other places or not.
"You know Conan, right? He's still in class. Call him out and investigate with him." Conan at least has some of His authority, so he's more reliable than Bourbon wandering around. By the way, he gave Bourbon a lucky blessing of Tyche (Note 1).
Amuro Toru took the step he had just taken. Of course he knew Conan's true identity, but why did Kazukage Yayoi suddenly mention Conan? From Kazukage Yayoi's perspective, Bourbon didn't know Conan's true identity. He was just an elementary school student who liked to solve cases. "Conan? What's the use of that kid?"
He Jing Yayoi didn't know how to explain, so he just made the call.
"Brother Yayoi?" Conan was preparing for afternoon class when he suddenly saw his cell phone ringing, and he quickly ran to the corridor to answer it.
"Conan, someone has dropped three bombs in Tokyo, one of which is at the Tokyo Skytree. Can you come over here and meet Mr. Amuro? I have something to do, so please help Mr. Amuro." After saying this to Kage Yayoi, he handed the phone to Toru Amuro without giving Conan a chance to react.
The phone was pressed to his ear, and Toru Amuro had no choice but to answer the call, "Conan, it's me, can I trouble you to come over?"
Conan was a little confused as to how they got mixed up, but he didn't give it much time to think about it, "Okay, I'll be right there."
"Then I'll go first. Don't worry, Bourbon, everything will be fine." Kazukage Yayoi smiled, "It's okay if you and Conan don't want to look for it." Kazukage Yayoi could understand how scared they were when humans who couldn't see their lifeline faced the bomb.
Amuro Toru felt that Kazukage Yayoi was not just comforting him, but was really stating the facts. But why? How could Kazukage Yayoi be so confident to make such a promise?
"I'm not worried. Besides, there's no need for me to look for a bomb, right?" It was He Jing Yayoi who proposed looking for a bomb in the beginning. Bourbon's actions all followed He Jing Yayoi's. Now that He Jing Yayoi said he wanted to leave and not care about anything else, as Bourbon, he naturally had no reason to continue looking for a bomb.
Kazukage Yayoi was stunned for a moment, as if he was a little puzzled by Bourbon's words, "Huh? Sorry, I thought humans were more inclined to help others. Did I misunderstand?"
Since he came to this world, the humans around him have been helping him intentionally or unintentionally. His classmates and teachers in school take care of him, the organization gives him food and money, Subaru Okiya helps him buy things for free, Conan is also a child who is willing to work hard for the lives of others, and Kenbali will also teach him knowledge. He has always felt that humans in this era like to help each other, and he is quite surprised. After all, in his world, it is common for humans to kill their fathers and take their mothers away, and for fathers and sons to kill each other.
For a moment, Toru Amuro felt that the three views that he had managed to change with great difficulty, under his denial, had taken another big step forward. But Kazuki Yayoi was currently a popular figure in the organization, so was he really going to talk about freedom, democracy, equality and harmony in front of her? It was just that the usual behavior correction was still within a reasonable range, after all, Kenbali did the same thing, but the profound issues involving the three views really stumped Toru Amuro.
He chose to forcefully change the subject, "Human? It's like you're not human. Don't you have something to do? Go now."
Kazukage Yayoi didn't bother with Amuro Toru about this issue. He waved goodbye to Amuro Toru and found an empty park to stay in. Because of the explosion nearby, no one dared to walk in the park for the time being, so Kazukage Yayoi found a tree to climb up and sit on.
Okay, now let him study how to edit it so that it is both reasonable and simple.
First, it cannot be too detailed. This is generally the treatment enjoyed by people connected to the world line. Kazukage Yayoi has not yet thought of moving the world line. Secondly, how should the life nodes be arranged? Generally speaking, Kroto (Note 2) weaves the life line, Lachesis determines the length of the life line, and Atropos cuts the life line. Now he is doing the work of three gods, which is really a headache.
The three sisters seemed to have obtained the result through calculation, but Thanatos had not yet obtained the corresponding authority, and He did not know how to calculate. Finally, weaving the lifeline requires weaving machines and raw materials. He knew the raw materials, which were the souls stored in the necklace by Him, but the weaving machine, well... forget it, let's solve it violently.
Thanatos sighed. There was nothing that couldn't be solved with divine blood. If it couldn't be solved, it was because there wasn't enough divine blood. He cut open his arm, and a large amount of blood gushed out, forming a loom in the air. Thanatos's face inevitably turned pale, and even his soul was somewhat shocked. Fortunately, there were only seven people, so he could still hold on. After all, this was the power that all gods dreamed of, and there was no reason for him to give up because of this.
