Chapter 207 Saving Hagiwara Ken 2
Chapter 207 Saving Hagiwara Ken 2
*November 11
In the clear and crisp autumn sky, there are floating white clouds, as soft and light as the sky. They drift leisurely and contentedly, going farther and farther away, as if going to the distant horizon.
To the Asai villa area near Yoshioka 3-chome, Hoshino Hitomi quickly arrived in stealth and saw that the police had almost completed the work of evacuating the residents. A trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.
[It seems that the time is almost up. Although my original plan was to catch the bomber...but for some reason, I am really worried about Kenji, so I should go and take a look first.]
After a moment, she immediately activated the teleportation technique and teleported to the 20th floor of the Asai Villa District. Looking at Kenji Hagiwara who was wearing an explosion-proof suit and concentrating on defusing the bomb not far away, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and a relieved smile appeared on her face.
However, just after the bomb timer stopped, Hagiwara Kenji also stopped what he was doing, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said leisurely: "Okay, the bomb timer has stopped, we can take a break first."
After saying that, he took off his explosion-proof suit without hesitation and slumped down on the ground, as if all the strength in his body had been drained.
Then he took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, skillfully took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then took out a lighter, pressed it lightly, and the flame immediately shot up.
Kenji Hagiwara brought the cigarette butt close to the flame, lit it, took a deep breath, and then blew out a smoke ring. He looked lazy and casual, as if he didn't care at all about the life-and-death test he had just experienced.
Hoshino Hitomi's fists clenched as she watched from the side, and her face instantly turned cold.
The guard nearby took out his intercom, learned the situation, and announced: "All residents of this apartment have evacuated."
Upon hearing this, Hagiwara Kenji raised his hand to take out the cigarette in his mouth, threw the cigarette butt into the dark blue magnetic storage bag, raised his lips and smiled, and said lazily: "I see, then we can take our time~"
"First, replace the photosensitive detonator with a photoelectric tube, then connect the mercury column to the white tube, and then look at the LCD screen..."
At the same time, Hagiwara Kenji's phone vibrated. He picked up the phone with a somewhat impatient look on his face, frowning and saying, "Hello, Matsuda, what's going on?"
Matsuda Jinpei's slightly irritable voice came from the other end of the phone, "What are you doing? What are you still dawdling on?! Just dismantle that thing quickly!"
Hagiwara Kenji said helplessly: "Please, don't shout, okay? The timer has stopped..."
Before he finished speaking, Hoshino Hitomi removed the invisibility spell on her body, walked forward and snatched Hagiwara Kenji's phone, and said very quickly: "Sorry, Zhenping, call me back later."
After more than a month, Matsuda Jinpei heard the girl's familiar and soft voice again. He almost couldn't recover for a moment and didn't even notice that the phone was hung up.
"W-what?! Why are you up there... damn, the phone is hung up?!"
Hitomi Hoshino immediately took out a signal-blocking remote control from her body and instantly cut off all receivable signals nearby.
When Kenji Hagiwara saw the expressionless Hitomi Hoshino, his expression suddenly became a little guilty. He moved forward cautiously, with his head lowered, not daring to look the other person in the eye.
"Hitomi, Hitomi-chan..."
The guard at the side said in shock: "President Hoshino, why are you here?! Please evacuate here immediately! It's too dangerous here..."
Hoshino Hitomi calmly walked around Hagiwara Kenji in front of her and said calmly, "The Asai Villa District is also a property under my name. They dared to make trouble on my territory, so I naturally had to come and play with this desperate criminal. Next, I will be responsible for defusing the bomb. You are too slow."
"Hitomi-chan, this is too dangerous, let me do it..." Hagiwara Kenji paused and was stopped in his tracks by a cold look from Hoshino Hitomi.
She squatted down, her eyes extremely focused, holding the screwdriver tightly in her hand. As she gently turned the screwdriver, the lid of the bomb was slowly opened, revealing the complex circuits and sophisticated devices inside.
Her eyes were fixed on the intricate circuits and electronic components, searching for key clues.
With Hoshino Hitomi's skillful operation, the signal receiver inside the bomb was quickly found. This small device may seem insignificant, but it is the core part of the entire bomb system.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then began to dismantle it without hesitation.
Every step is taken so cautiously, for fear that the slightest carelessness will lead to irreversible consequences.
Finally, after some effort, the signal receiver was successfully separated from the bomb.
As signal receivers and important devices were dismantled one after another, the originally complex bomb structure gradually disintegrated, and the dismantling work became much easier.
Time passed minute by minute, and the tools in Hoshino Hitomi's hands moved quickly, and every operation was precise and correct.
In just three minutes, she successfully defused the bomb and resolved the crisis.
The guards on the side were in disbelief, but when they came to their senses, their eyes lit up with joy.
"The rumors are true! President Hoshino is really a bomb disposal expert!!"
Hoshino Hitomi smiled with relief and said, "Thank you for the compliment. I have something personal to discuss with your Captain Hagiwara. Please report the situation here first. Remember not to stay here too long."
"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"

After returning to the safe area, Hoshino Hitomi, who had been silent for a long time, slapped Hagiwara Kenji's handsome face mercilessly.
Her star-like red eyes were filled with disappointment and anger. Her petite body trembled slightly because of anger. Finally, she couldn't help but cursed:
"You idiot... What did I tell you before? You didn't even find and remove the signal receiver in the bomb! Besides, isn't the signal jammer you're carrying going to be used as a burial object with you?! You actually dared to take off your explosion-proof suit and sit aside so leisurely. Do you think you have too much to live?!"
Kenji Hagiwara wanted to ask the other party to calm down, but after being glared at fiercely by the other party, he didn't even dare to breathe and couldn't say a word.
He had no choice but to silently cover the red and swollen half of his face. Knowing that he had done something wrong, he had to stand aside obediently.
At this moment, he was like a student who had made a mistake, nervously waiting for the teacher's scolding and punishment.
After venting her dissatisfaction, Hitomi Hoshino quickly deflated like a punctured balloon.
Her expression at the moment was frighteningly calm, but in fact her heart was already on the verge of collapse. Crystal clear tears were swirling in her eyes, as if they could burst out at any time.
"If I hadn't arrived in time this time, do you know what would have happened to you? Why didn't you listen to me? Why didn't you check if there was a signal receiver inside the bomb? Why?"
Her voice trembled, as if all her strength had been drained away by an invisible force. A thick layer of haze filled her eyes, and her originally bright pupils became dim.
Witnessing the other person's brush with death with her own eyes, fear and anxiety surged into her heart like a tide, making it impossible for her to calm down.
Seeing the tears flashing in the other person's eyes, Kenji Hagiwara felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He had never thought that he would see such a vulnerable side of the other person. He felt countless times worse than when he was slapped in the face by the other person just now. He slowly stretched out his hand and wanted to hug the other person and give him some comfort.
"Hitomi-chan, I'm sorry..."
Hoshino Hitomi pushed the tall man in front of her away with force. She frowned and glared at the helpless man in front of her. There was a hint of red at the corners of her eyes after crying, which added a bit of the charm of a beautiful woman who is angry for no reason.
"Don't touch me, I hate you!! I will never care about you again, you big idiot!"
After saying that, she ran away quickly like a frightened deer without looking back.
