[Toru Amuro] Those years when I worked at Poirot

"I'll go right now!"

As soon as my voice fell, he said firmly, and then he ran away. I heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and a man's strange cry.

I guess his ears must be full of my hoarse and ferocious crying, I think I should calm down, don't let him look down, and don't disturb his mind, but I just can't stop, it seems that only through this way can I Don't twitch and faint.

Why am I encountering such a thing?Whether it was the day before yesterday, yesterday or today, no day is peaceful and ordinary, I really have had enough.

The ticking sound of the bomb seemed to be getting faster and faster, and I knew it was a psychological illusion.Where did that sound come from?underfoot?in the engine?Or under the seat?

Tears blurred my eyes, and the snot flowed out not to be outdone, I raised the back of my hand and wiped it randomly on my face.

Through the hazy eyes of tears, I saw the figure of Amuro running towards me. His face was full of astonishment, his hair was messy, and he ran towards me.

"Don't move." These were the first words he said after he stopped beside me.

His breath dispelled the fear in my heart.The twitching of the body gradually calmed down, only the shoulders were still shaking violently.

He looked at me as if he wanted to say something, but he just opened his mouth and said nothing.

He raised a hand, stretched out the car window, and pressed hard on my shoulder.

A warm current flowed into my body from his palm, and the power he exerted on me seemed to be magical, which immediately calmed me down.

"Don't panic." He said, withdrew his hand, and fully opened the car door that was ajar.

I can smell the slight sweat on his body, wrapping me with a sense of security.For some reason, I wanted to hug him tightly until my whole body was covered with his reassuring breath.

He made a "shush" gesture, and I quickly turned a choked sob into a hiccup.He turned his head to the side, held his breath and listened for a few seconds, then decisively lay down on the ground and looked under the car.

"That's right, it's a time bomb." After a few seconds, he got up, looked at me, and said as lightly as possible.

What puzzled me was the great doubt in his eyes.

I don't know what he is suspicious of.

I shook my lips, and it took me a long time to squeeze out what I wanted to say: "What, what, what should I do? Am I going to die, Mr. Amuro?"

"No." He looked at me and replied without hesitation.

I was slightly relieved.

But I saw fine beads of sweat oozing from the corner of his forehead, and my heart started beating wildly again.

It is definitely not as simple as he said.

"You lied to me." I whispered, wrapping my arms around my cold body.

"I never say things I'm not sure about." His sapphire blue eyes shone with determination.

I wiped my tears and turned my face: "Well, I believe you."

"It's getting pretty fast." He seemed to show a smile.

The silence in the parking lot made the ticking of the countdown all the more pervasive.

"You did a good job. It's a pressure-sensitive bomb. The moment you sit in the seat, the trigger is triggered. If you get out of the seat without realizing it, the bomb will explode instantly when it loses pressure. If you sit still, it won't explode until the countdown ends. Right now, 2 minutes."

"Then, what should I do?"

"Don't be afraid. Take a deep breath first, Miss Natsume."

"Can you call me by my name?"

"?"

"Please, can you call me by my name?"

He hesitated for half a second, then twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly: "Qiu Jiang."

In fact, it would be better for him to call me by my Chinese name, but unfortunately I can't say it.

Then, I obediently took a few deep breaths.

"There is still one minute and thirty seconds." He kindly reminded.

I shivered.

"Now remember what I said, I'll go to the engine right away and cut off the bomb's connection circuit. When cutting, I will shout one, two, three. When the sound of my three falls, you must jump out of the chair immediately, otherwise The bomb will go off and we will both die!"

So, he saved me at the cost of his own life.

This actually made me more nervous.

"You mean I have to move from the chair while you cut the wire?"

"Yes, there can be no error at all."

"Are you so confident in me? If the two of us are out of sync, your life will be lost."

"I believe in you." He took the scissors in the toolbox of the car, left me, walked to the front of the car, opened the front cover, glanced inside, and then quickly withdrew two threads, one One is red and one is blue.

He looked up and looked at me through the front window: "30 seconds, are you ready?"

If a person is too nervous, he can calm down instead.I took another deep breath, bit my lip, and raised my head at him.

"Okay."

He lowered his head with a serious expression, thought for two seconds, then plugged the red wire back and replaced it with a green one.

"I'm going to start counting," he said.

I nod, firmly.

He bet his life on my tacit understanding with him, and I can't let him down.

He held the two threads with the scissors resting on them.

"one two Three--"

As soon as the three words came out, I jumped up desperately. At the same time, I saw that the two wires had been broken in two, and Amuro held his breath nervously and remained motionless.

I rolled on the ground and stood up quickly.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Nothing happened.

Amuro threw away the scissors, ran to me, got down on the ground, and tore off a rectangular box from the chassis of the car near the tires.

It's a bomb.

The countdown on the surface has stopped at 25 seconds.

saved!

"You are safe." Amuro pulled out the disconnected wire connected to the bomb and threw it away, the number on the dial immediately changed to gray 00:00.

I didn't dare to breathe out just now, and I was so nervous that even the beads of sweat froze, and I can finally put a hanging heart back into my stomach completely.

Tears couldn't stop flowing out again, I choked up and grabbed his arm.

"Thank you, Mr. Amuro. I owe you my life."

Other than that, I don't know what to say.

However, the expression he looked at me was extremely complicated.
