A loud bang outside the cockpit instantly put Guangyou's nerves on edge. The next second, the entire cockpit trembled slightly, followed by a violent shaking.
"Where did this guy get the bomb?"
Guangyou cursed inwardly. He really didn't expect that such a person would have bombs on him. Judging from the sound and power just now, that person had more than one.
He now finally understood where that thorn-like feeling he had just experienced came from.
He has no tools now, and if the entire Ferris wheel collapses, he will die no matter what he does.
Ai, nestled in Kousuke's arms, knew the situation was dire. She remained silent, afraid of disturbing Kousuke's train of thought.
"I hope everyone will be alright."
This is her truest thought deep in her heart right now.
Perhaps it's true that young girls tend to overthink, but Ai suddenly thought of a possibility, and the next moment, a hint of determination appeared in her beautiful eyes.
"Luckily, it was a homemade bomb."
Judging from their destructive power, these bombs were definitely made hastily in a moment of panic. Otherwise, their destructive power would have been far greater than what they had previously acquired. The bombs that Moriya Tei had also made themselves were several times more lethal than these.
"But no matter what, it's still a bomb!"
Kōyū was indeed unsure, but he couldn't show it; he didn't want Ai to see that side of him.
To be honest, who could remain calm and composed in such a situation? There's a saying that goes, "Even if Mount Tai collapses before you, your expression will not change; even if a deer runs past on your left, your eyes will not blink."
The translation is that even if Mount Tai were to collapse right before your eyes, your expression would not change at all; and if a deer suddenly appeared beside you, you wouldn't even blink.
This phrase describes someone who remains calm and unaffected when faced with a situation.
It's easier said than done. He was indeed quite calm, otherwise Guangyou would have been yelling like the two men next door, but he still wasn't sure.
He was just an ordinary mortal with no supernatural powers. If he said he didn't care at all about such a thing, that would be a lie or a deliberate act of showing off.
"Call Kaito."
Kōyū felt that the only person he could rely on right now was Kaito Kuroba, who lived nearby. Even if the Ferris wheel collapsed, Kaito could keep them safe.
Even if things go wrong, at least Ai-chan will be safe.
He took out his phone from his pocket, skillfully opened the contacts interface, and dialed Kaito.
"Beep~ Beep~"
Guangyou felt the cockpit becoming increasingly unstable beneath his feet, his brows furrowing as he silently urged, "Hurry up and answer it!"
There was no response from the other end of the phone. After a while, a voice finally came through.
"Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
No matter the time, this sentence can always ignite a nameless anger in people.
"Could it be that he's taking Aoko with him...?"
This was the only possibility that Kōyū could think of for the time being. If the two of them hadn't been so busy being affectionate, how could Kaito have missed his call?
He really wronged Kaito, and Kaito was also anxious at that moment.
Let's go back in time to before the bomb exploded.
...
After parting ways with Kōyū, Kaito sat down on a chair by the fountain to wait for Aoko.
A short while later, Aoko, holding a cup of oden in each hand, trotted over to Kaito and handed him one of the cups, saying, "You must be hungry, here you go."
She actually wanted to buy Kaito's favorite ice cream, but because of Kaito's health, she opted for hot oden instead.
Kaito glanced at the still steaming oden, but instead of taking it, he turned his head and said, "This isn't like you."
"What do you mean by similar or not similar?!"
Aoko placed the cup of oden next to Kaito, sat down on the bench, took a small bite of a skewer of oden, and said, "I am who I am."
"Honestly, I bought you food and you're still so ungrateful."
Aoko took a big bite of the oden, seemingly mistaking it for Kaito, and complained as she ate, "Kaito is really something."
"Thank you, Aoko."
Kaito picked up the cup of oden, watching the steam rise from the top and smelling the aroma of food. Without much hesitation, he reached out, took a skewer of oden, and ate it in one bite.
The oden was still a bit hot from the pot. Kaito breathed on it, swallowed the oden with difficulty, then exhaled a breath of hot air and said, "Delicious!"
A blush rose on Aoko's fair and smooth cheeks as she stared intently at Kaito and asked, "What did you just say?"
"It's delicious, what's wrong?"
Kaito swallowed another mouthful of oden, turned to look at Aoko, and asked in confusion, "It's just oden, will it make you stupid?"
"You're the stupid one!"
Qingzi gave a snort and continued to press, "I was asking what you said before you said 'delicious'."
I said...
Kaito was about to respond, but realizing what he had just said, he quickly changed the subject, saying, "I didn't say anything, you misheard me."
"Hmph, you clearly said it."
Aoko didn't press the matter, and after getting no answer, she turned around and continued eating the oden in her cup.
"Ring ring~"
The sudden ringing of the telephone broke the silence. Qingzi glanced at the phone number, answered it, and asked, "Dad, is something wrong?"
A slightly anxious voice came through the receiver: "Aoko, are you and Kaito still in the amusement park?"
