I'm writing a novel in Ming Ke, if you mess with me, you'll be the heroine

Vermouth glanced at Kid subconsciously, threw Ito Suehiko on the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "How is the bracelet being taken off? Is it in time?"

Kidd glanced at the robot that was concentrating on defusing the bomb and could not guarantee anything: "Uh - Mr. Kui, cough cough Aoi is still defusing it, but I guess..."

He didn't know what to call the puppet, so he just picked a name for it.

Chu Ming controlled the robot and shook his head, his voice hoarse and he said word by word: "It's probably a little risky."

Time passed minute by minute, and beads of sweat gradually appeared on Kidd's forehead. It had already been thirteen minutes, but he had just finished taking apart the three children's clothes, and had only taken apart half of the clothes in Haibara Ai's hand.

Haibara Ai originally wanted to be the last one in line, but because she looked like a child, no one agreed. They all forced her to stretch out her hand so Chu Ming could remove the bracelet.

Yuanzi's facial features wrinkled and his heart was in his throat. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the robot's hand, watching him carefully remove the bracelet bit by bit, take out the bomb inside and put it into the explosion-proof box left by the police at the scene.

There were only two people left. He Ye pushed Xiaolan and put her in front of him: "Xiaolan, you go and dismantle it first. I'll wait for that guy Heiji to come over."

She knew in her heart that if she gave way, she would most likely die in the explosion because she would not have time to remove her bracelet, but -

——But she is the daughter of the Osaka Prefecture Criminal Minister. Like father, like daughter. Xiaolan is also her good friend. How could she possibly compete with Xiaolan for this chance to survive?

Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled. She took Kazuha's hand and brought her to the robot, her movements gentle but unyielding: "What are you talking about? I still have to go up to find Conan, and Shinichi will definitely come back to save me when he hears about this. And there's no need for us to waste time going back and forth. After we dismantle your robot, Mr. Aoi and the others will have to evacuate."

He Ye wanted to get up, but although Xiaolan looked weak and gentle, she actually had great strength in her hands. Chu Ming did not hesitate. He took He Ye's hand and started to dismantle it, leaving her no chance to refuse.

There is not enough time. It takes more than three minutes to take apart a bracelet. Nearly four minutes. After taking apart He Ye's, Xiao Lan's...

Yuanzi's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Xiaolan standing outside the crowd, her lips trembling: "Xiaolan..."

Xiaolan smiled gently, as if her whole body was glowing. She looked at Yuanzi and said, "Yuanzi, if I am gone, my father and the others will probably have to rely on you... He loves drinking, so please help me persuade him. He is not young anymore, and he should drink less.

And Conan, that kid is a little clingy to me, but he’s a good kid. If I’m gone, Dad might not have the patience to raise a kid…

As for Shinichi, please help me tell him that he can’t tell him the answer he wanted to know last time, so that he can forget about me. I’m sorry for causing you trouble, I want to be your sister in the next life…”

Yuanzi cried so hard that her whole body was shaking. She squatted on the ground and couldn't stand up at all. She didn't care about her image at all and cried heartbreakingly: "Don't cry, Xiaolan, don't cry..."

There were two minutes and thirty-two seconds left before the time agreed upon by Chu Ming, and the bracelet on He Ye's hand was successfully removed.

Chu Ming controlled the robot and looked at Xiaolan. His tone was emotionless, but it was like a sharp knife stabbing everyone's heart: "Less than three minutes, not enough to defuse a bomb. I suggest you evacuate."

Kidd looked at the robot suddenly. Is this the Demon King’s puppet?

Just cheated him out of his hard-earned money?

Can he return the goods?

The few policemen who stayed there had conflicted expressions. They looked at the crying children who refused to leave, and Yuanzi who was lying on the ground and sobbing, and felt at a loss as to what to do.

Although Kidd wanted to settle accounts with the puppets, he was running out of time. If he didn't retreat, he would just waste his life. So he made a quick decision: "Just carry them away. Time is running out!"

Now he can only hope that Conan can really come up with a solution...

There were tears in Xiaolan's eyes, but there was still a faint smile on her face.

farewell--

Shinichi, where are you?

At times like this, I really—

I really want to see you——

Vermouth's fingers trembled slightly. After being dragged into the elevator by Kidra, she suddenly took out her cell phone and sent a message to Chu Ming.

"What exactly do I need to do to let that girl go? You set the conditions."

After all, she couldn't stand the days without light...

Chu Ming squinted his eyes and felt the endless stream of emotions pouring in like a tide. His points were also increasing by thousands, and he sighed contentedly.

Sure enough, the emotions at this critical moment of life and death are the most fragrant.

Of course, he also made a lot of money during the Red and Black War.

They all smell good. They all smell good.

While eating melon seeds, a message from Vermouth suddenly came on his phone. Chu Ming moved his fingers and called up a program to reply to Vermouth's message.

Vermouth held the phone, anxiously waiting for Chu Ming's reply.

"Buzz-"

She moved her fingers slightly, opened the message, and her eyes widened as she stared at it.

On the narrow mobile phone screen, every word of a message was clearly visible.

"What if I ask you to change your loyalty from that gentleman to me?"

Three seconds later, before Vermouth could react, the message seemed to be wiped out by a pair of hands and disappeared without a trace.

So Granburch actually had this in mind?

Interesting, very interesting...

Vermouth blinked her eyes gently without even a moment's thought. She was actually not that loyal to Karasuma Renya.

"can."

Looking at the message that Vermouth replied in seconds, Chu Ming laughed lightly. The boss was a bit of a failure as a person. He felt that apart from Gin, there seemed to be few loyal people in the entire organization.

They're all just wallflowers.

People go in the direction the wind blows.

"Deal. Remember your promise."

Looking at Chu Ming's reply, Vermouth slowly let out the anger that had been stuck in her heart, and her expression relaxed slightly.

She knew that Granburch was crazy, but generally he kept his word.

Since he agreed, there should be no problem.

She didn't dare to bet whether Conan could keep Xiaolan safe and sound.

On the other side, Xiaolan watched everyone evacuate from the elevator. Only when the elevator door slowly closed did she fall to the ground as if she had escaped, curled up her body, and hugged herself.

She looked out the window quietly, and the smile on her face disappeared.

How could she not be afraid?

This is death...

But Sonoko and the others were already sad enough, and if she panicked further, the situation would only get worse.

Tears dripped slowly down her cheeks, leaving water marks on her dress.

Shinichi, where are you?

Obviously, obviously you showed up at Fantasy Land before, and obviously you’re in Yokohama right now, why are you always late...

Do you know that I am dying...

I really want to see you again before the explosion...

"Sister Xiaolan!"

Xiaolan's thoughts paused, and she seemed to - hear Conan's voice?

I must have heard it wrong. Just now, Hakuba clearly said that Conan was stuffed with a shielding device by the bomber. Shouldn't he be guarding the bomb on the top floor at this time?

"Sister Xiaolan!!" the voice became clearer.

She didn't hear wrong, it was indeed Conan.

It came from the stairs, and along with it, there was the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs.

Xiaolan hurriedly wiped the tears from her face and took a few steps back.

"Conan, don't come over here. I have a bomb on me and it's going to explode in just over a minute!"

Conan rushed out of the stairwell, ignoring Xiaolan's retreat, and rushed to Xiaolan's side in a few steps, panting: "Quick, Sister Xiaolan, I have an idea, come up with me, I have found a way to send you to the fantasy park!"

"You won't die! Trust me!"
