Chapter 45: Dealing with the Bomber



"Okay, but could you please get me something to eat? There's a sandwich in the fridge that I bought at the convenience store yesterday."

Hoshino Aoi's smile was innocent and cute. In addition, Sambuga had confidence in his abilities and didn't think that she could successfully escape from his hands, so he didn't care too much and walked straight into the kitchen.

But after he took out the sandwich, Sambuga suddenly remembered.

"How are you going to eat a sandwich when you're tied up?"

Was she planning to use this opportunity to ask him to untie her?

Sambuga paused as he was about to hand her the sandwich, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at her showed a hint of suspicion.

However, Hoshino Aoi seemed to have just thought of this question. She blinked her eyes, which were originally looking at him expectantly, and looked as if she was confused by his words.

"Eh? Yeah..."

A hint of realization appeared on her face, but it quickly turned into disappointment:

"That's fine. I won't starve to death if I skip a meal anyway."

She did not take this opportunity to ask him to help untie her, so Sambuga pretended to know nothing and put the sandwich back in the refrigerator.

The two of them just sat there, feeling a bit bored indeed.

Sambuga turned on the TV.

"Based on our understanding of the scene, the police have agreed to the robbers' demands, but the bombs still show no sign of stopping..."

Sambuga didn't listen to the rest of the conversation, but when he found that he had switched channels several times and all they heard was the same news, he couldn't help but click his tongue impatiently.

"What's the point of these cops? They can't even catch a robber."

"There's nothing we can do. For the police, public safety has always been their top priority. And even though the media is so enthusiastic about condemning the criminals now, if they accidentally cause any harm to the criminals during the arrest, they will be the first to point the finger at the Metropolitan Police Department."

"whispering sound……"

Sambuga snorted disdainfully:

"So, what's so good about being a police officer? It's not as good as the freedom we have."

However, just as he finished speaking, Sambuga felt his heart suddenly beat faster and his vision became dizzy.

Eh?! What's going on?

He subconsciously swung his fist at the person next to him, but unfortunately, his fist was blocked the next second.

Sambuga was shocked.

"When did you..." give me the drug? And when did I get the drug? Was it the sandwich? But I didn't eat the sandwich... So the drug was smeared on the packaging? And your rope...

In an instant, countless guesses flashed through his mind, but before he could express them, his eyes went dark and he collapsed completely on the sofa.

"call……"

Seeing everything develop as planned——

The rope was successfully cut under the cover of the voice on TV, and the black organization member guarding her was also knocked down by the strong hallucinogen she smeared on the sandwich packaging.

Only then did Aoi Hoshino breathe a sigh of relief, used a blade to cut the rope tied around her ankle, and took out a gun from Sambuga's arms.

There was nothing she could do, since her service gun was taken away by Vermouth, so she could only bear with it.

Fortunately, with her current shooting level, even if she is not using the gun she is used to, she will not be so unskilled that she cannot shoot accurately.

As for where she's going next...

Aoi Hoshino looked at the TV from afar.

A replay of the case was playing there.

"According to the information we have received, the timer on the bomb has not yet stopped and the police are rushing to evacuate the crowd."

"Here, we strongly condemn the other party's behavior..."

"Wait, didn't we hit the pause button? Why does this guy say the bombs haven't stopped?"

In the white van, a man wearing a baseball cap looked at his companions anxiously after hearing what was said on the radio.

"No, I have to tell those policemen how to dismantle the bomb."

As he was about to pull over, his companion beside him hurriedly advised:

"Are you crazy?! Anyway, we've already got the money. As for what happens next, the police will naturally handle it themselves. There's no need for us to do anything else, right?"

Even if there was a problem with the bomb and it failed to stop successfully, it had nothing to do with them.

Anyway, they have already got the money, and now all they have to do is leave here as soon as possible.

However, his companions obviously did not agree with his words.

"But we just want to get the money, we don't really intend to kill people for money."

And the most important thing is that if the bomb really exploded, regardless of whether it would kill people, the nature of the incident would definitely be different.

So, can they really take the money and leave smoothly?

Although the man did not stop the car, his face still had an expression of panic and his eyes kept looking around.

He seemed to hear the voices of his companions trying to persuade him, but without exception, he blocked them out.

It wasn't until he saw the telephone booth on the side of the road that his eyes lit up a little more.

"I'm going to make a phone call."

As he spoke, he stepped on the brakes.
