The night wind carried a chill, making one instinctively wrap themselves tighter in their clothes to keep warm.
Fireworks burst in the night sky, but everyone's eyes were fixed on the Ferris wheel, and no one had any interest in appreciating the beautiful scenery.
They had all witnessed the strange changes occurring on the Ferris wheel, but they were powerless to do anything about it. They could only hope that the Ferris wheel could hold on a little longer so that the rescue could proceed smoothly.
The situation is not optimistic. Kōyū is holding onto the edge of the cockpit with one hand and Ai's wrist with the other, swaying precariously as if he might fall off at any moment.
The wind was strong at the top, and the rope ladder swayed back and forth in the air. If you weren't careful, you could fall into the air. Therefore, the rescuers were very cautious with every step and would only take the next step when they felt that they had a firm footing.
Even so, his movements were by no means slow.
Ai looked up at the increasingly tilted cockpit and said to Kousuke, "Let go. You can still live if you let go."
She could tell that the cockpit probably wouldn't last that long; if things continued like this, the two of them would eventually perish.
"impossible."
Guangyou's fingers, which were gripping the edge of the cockpit, had turned slightly white from the excessive force. He gritted his teeth and said, "I finally managed to get my hands on you, how could I just let go like this!"
I finally made it into this world...
I finally ran into her...
It wasn't easy to develop this kind of relationship with her...
Let go?
How could Guangyou possibly let go!
"But you'll fall if you keep doing that!"
Ai had anticipated this situation from the very beginning and had already devised a countermeasure.
In her original plan, she would stop at nothing to force Guangyou to let go, exchanging her death for Guangyou to live a good life.
Although the two are just children, they weigh nearly 100 pounds together, and it would be difficult for one person to get them out of danger.
But if Guangyou lets go now to reduce his weight, rescuers can grab his wrists and easily pull him up.
But when the moment actually came, Ai found herself unable to bear it.
What can't you bear?
She couldn't bear to see what kind of expression Kwang-woo would have after seeing her do such a thing.
What kind of expression will Kwangyu make when she forcibly makes him let go?
despair?
pain?
No matter what kind of expression it is, Ai doesn't want to see it.
Even if it really is the last time she sees him, she wants to see Guangyou smiling.
Instead of showing that expression that would make her feel heartbroken and guilty.
"After people die, they become stars to protect others."
Ai's tone was very calm, as if she were talking about someone else's business, "Then will I become a star?"
Guangyou understood the implication, but he wouldn't agree to such an unreasonable request.
"Kids, don't worry, hold on a little longer!"
The rescuer had climbed to the bottom of the rope ladder, but he realized that even with his desperate reach, he was still just a little short. He looked up and shouted, "Get closer!"
"No, this is the closest we've come. Any closer and we'll be right in front of the Ferris wheel!"
The driver was also very distressed; it wasn't that he didn't want to go forward, but that he couldn't.
The helicopter's rotor blades are wider than the fuselage, not to mention that the Ferris wheel is tilting in his direction.
Based on his visual assessment, if the helicopter had moved even a little bit further forward, the propeller might have gotten stuck on the Ferris wheel, resulting in a crash and loss of life.
After seeing this, Ai understood the situation and said to Kousuke, "Let go, and you will be saved."
The distance between the rescuers and Guangyou was so small; if Guangyou were willing to let go, the free hand could bridge that final gap.
Guangyou completely ignored her words and yelled, "Let go? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"But now..."
Before Ai could finish speaking, Kōyū interrupted her sharply: "No buts. In this matter, I'm the one who makes the decisions!"
Ai fell silent; she no longer knew what to say.
No matter what she says now, Guangyou will not change his mind.
She actually knew this from the beginning, but she didn't expect Guangyou's attitude to be so firm.
It's even become somewhat domineering.
Kōyū understood what Ai was thinking, but he couldn't accept it. He said, "Listen to me, I won't let go, and don't even think about making me let go!"
These words were meant for Ai. After saying this, Kōyū glanced at the rescuer who was climbing the rope ladder and had not given up reaching out to save him, and said, "Uncle, get ready first, and grab her hand when you see an opportunity."
The rescuers were taken aback for a moment and asked, "What?"
In the current situation, Guangyou didn't have time to explain much, and simply replied casually, "Just wait for the right opportunity."
After saying that, Guangyou took a deep breath, clenched his teeth tightly, and made veins pop on his forehead, making his face look extremely ferocious.
Before long, a hint of fatigue appeared on that youthful face.
He's nearing his limit, but he won't give up.
"I want to protect you too."
Ai murmured softly.
From the time we first met until now, Guangyou has been at the forefront the most.
She caused trouble quite a few times because of her willfulness, but Kwang-woo never blamed her.
Occasionally, when someone does talk to her, it's just a simple "Silly girl, don't do that again."
After saying that, he went back to his carefree self.
When he gets hungry, he will cook himself a bowl of hot noodles. The ingredients are not as luxurious and abundant as those in high-end restaurants, but the taste is several times better.
