I can't lose to my ex today

Chapter62

"Hello everyone at the scene and everyone in front of the screen."

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Jefferson. I am the biggest sponsor of this forum and the person who booked this hotel today."

"First warn those who want to rescue in front of the screen not to move around at will. After booking the hotel, I have installed the most sensitive infrared system in the entire hotel. Once any living things from the outside are detected trying to enter the hotel, the hotel will It will explode like 'boom——!', and everyone will die together, hahaha!"

"Okay, okay, so, now, let me explain the rules of the game. The game is limited to one hour, and the end point is the suite on the top floor of the hotel. I will wait for you there. There are many roads to the top suite, Some roads may be smooth, and some roads may be full of deadly obstacles. In short, in the end, among all the people present, only ten people can escape successfully as the final winner... because the helicopter I prepared on the rooftop , it can only carry ten people at most~"

"The first ten people who arrive in front of me can get the chance to escape by helicopter, or, if there are only ten people left in the whole building at the end, these ten people can also escape by helicopter, for example, someone is passing through the checkpoint. I accidentally got killed by an explosion and was eliminated... Hee hee, because I decided to let the ten most 'smart and brave' or 'luckiest' people survive today~"

"This is also the reason why I chose to practice this game at today's World Mystery Writers Forum, because today there are so many top mystery writers and so many strongest brains, theoretically speaking, they become" The possibility of rescuing the members of the "Group of Ten" is the highest, so... what should the other people do? Should they follow these mystery novelists and treat them as customs clearance tools? The conditions to reach a joint customs clearance cooperation with these mystery novelists, or... other more extreme means? There are many ways to pass the level, it depends on how you choose, I am looking forward to it!"

"Ah, I've discovered it a long time ago. There are a lot of plainclothes policemen mixed in with today's guests. Officers, what are you going to do? If something happens at the scene of this great survival challenge, it is necessary because of your professional requirements. Do you want to stop the things you want to stop? After all, you are already part of the Survival Challenge, and you even have a special advantage over others... You have wooden warehouses on your body. "

"Speaking of which, the one who will be the focus of all of you now... should be Mr. Arthur Conan Doyle? Mr. Doyle, guess how many celebrities from all walks of life are present in your mind at this moment What to expect? You are the safest now because everyone wants to use your power to survive, and you are the most dangerous now because everyone only wants to use your power to survive. For you, this is really the highest The hour of light is also the hour of darkness."

While speaking, the man named Jefferson looked at Conan Doyle in the crowd.

As soon as this remark came out, the dignitaries who had begun to shrewdly consider the best partner in their minds when they learned that they were forced to participate in this survival game, and thus secretly aimed at Conan Doyle, were finally able to look at Conan Doyle openly at this moment. As his own "life-saving straw", he secretly calculated the bargaining chips he could offer to make the other party's heart beat.

The sights focused on him were no longer inconspicuous, but Conan Doyle remained calm and calm, but looked at Jefferson who planned this "life-and-death situation" with a hint of gloom in silence.

……

"Tsk, this man is also a lunatic, but this kind of insanity... It is better to get rid of it."

In front of the TV, watching the live broadcast conducted by the terrorist himself, Gojo Satoru's originally playful tone became a little gloomy, and his murderous intent was revealed without any concealment.

"Teacher, don't be impulsive. That guy said that if someone rushes in to rescue from the outside now, the entire hotel will be detonated!"

Knotabagi Yuhito was worried that the impulsive young teacher in his heart would go directly to level the field, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.

Gojo Satoru stared at the TV screen for a few more seconds, and found that petite figure in the crowd within the range that the live broadcast camera could capture:

"If it's true, as this man named Jefferson said, the first ten people who clear the level will have a chance to escape, then I'm not worried. As long as she thinks about it, she will definitely be the first to reach the finish line and pass the level successfully...Of course , Doing so is not in line with Ranpo's values, and if you are willing to be led by the nose like this, it is not Edogawa Ranpo."

Just as the voice finished speaking, a scene of sudden change appeared on the TV screen——

Jefferson, who was about to start this "survival game", suddenly added:

"Ah, ah, I almost forgot, in order to ensure that I, the host of the game, can see the final outcome, I have to add a layer of protection to my own safety, after all, there are too many smart people present... ...Then, please stand up a brave guest to be my personal hostage."

While speaking, he took out the bomb equipment that he had prepared long ago.

"I need this brave hostage to strap on this bomb and stay with me in the suite on the top floor, waiting for the last ten winners who have a chance to escape. Before I can see the final outcome, if I If he dies, then I will drag this hostage to die with him at the last moment."

"How? Who is willing to be brave enough to be this hostage? If no one takes the initiative to be the hostage, I will randomly grab a 'lucky one' from among you, no matter who is present... How is it? What are you thinking in your heart now? Are you all despicably hoping that such a self-sacrificing warrior can stand up so that you can escape... Hey, this game of survival, In fact, it has already begun.”

"I'll give you another ten seconds to think about it. If no one takes the initiative, I will really arrest people at random... Then, the countdown starts, ten, nine, eight, seven, six..."

At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared from the crowd——

"Then I'll be a hostage!"

In an instant, some people were surprised, some worried, and some breathed a sigh of relief. Amidst the complex emotions of the crowd, Edogawa Ranpo walked out of the crowd calmly, seemingly fearless. look.

Jefferson was also a little surprised. In the end, it was such a delicate-looking little girl who took the initiative to stand up. She couldn't help but sneered:

"I really didn't expect it, or it was expected... so many high-class people who usually flaunt their virtues and even call themselves nobles are not as brave as a little girl..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and tie the bomb to me." Edogawa Ranpo interrupted the man's forward swinging spell impatiently, and there was no fear at all, "If you If those idiots tie me up, then they are really dead, so tie me up."

It seems to be expressing between the lines... You guys are good food, so let me cover it.

This really surprised Jefferson even more. He had thought that maybe someone would stand up as a hero, maybe someone would really have the so-called noble character, maybe... But he never expected that there would be such a person, full of confidence:

"Little girl, it seems that you are very confident that you can survive?"

"At least have more confidence than those idiots." Even at such a moment, Edogawa Ranpo's mouth still won't soften, "Also, don't call me a little girl, I'm afraid you are not much older than me."

……

Edogawa Ranpo at the scene of the incident was fearless, while Gojo Satoru in front of the screen was about to be scared to death... Edogawa Ranpo, what are you pretending to do at a time like this!Fighting the five scums requires a little self-consciousness to fight the five scums!

At this time, temporarily hide behind, lurking secretly looking for opportunities to break the situation is what you brains should do!Who told you to take the initiative to become a humanoid meat tank!

Gojo Satoru can't wait to rush straight into the TV right now to find that little black cat who has taken risks again and give him a good lesson, especially when Jefferson really tied the bomb to Ranpo Edogawa on the screen. , After announcing "the game is on" and cutting off the live broadcast signal, my heart was in my throat.

How to do……

It is not difficult for him to just rescue Edogawa Ranpo and ignore everything else, but it is a bad idea.

Gojo Satoru's brain was running fast, thinking about the best way to break the situation.

At this moment, I suddenly received a call from the school administrator, saying that someone needed to see him urgently and was waiting at the school gate.

Originally Gojo Satoru was not in the mood to pay attention to it, but when he learned that the person who came to see him was actually...

"Didn't you go to the forum meeting?" Gojo Satoru stared at the person in front of him unexpectedly.

Edgar Allan Poe: "...", you just watched the live broadcast for so long, didn't you notice that my generation is not there, it's too much.

"Although I don't really want you to get a share of the hero's rescue of the beauty, but the situation is urgent now. If you can contribute to the rescue of Ranpo, then let's do it together." Gojo Satoru said Although I am unhappy, I still have a big picture.

My generation is not so narrow-minded!Edgar Allan Poe felt annoyed in his heart, and stopped talking to this man at such a time:

"That's why we came here...or, in other words, Ranbu had expected things to develop like this..."

Gojo Satoru: "?!", she started writing the script again? !
