Before entering the apartment building, Hasegawa Yu first saw Matsuda Jinpei falling from the sky.

The black curly-haired man fell rapidly from a great height on his back, the hem of his black coat dancing wildly in the strong wind. Before the snowflakes could surround him, the man skillfully adjusted the angle of his body in mid-air, tightened his arms, gripped the only rope on his body, and pushed his legs hard against the wall, drawing a neat arc.

After seeing the other party's falling speed slow down, Hasegawa Yu's pounding heart finally calmed down.

The fish was scared to death, it turned out there was a rope!

Unable to understand this exciting exercise, Hasegawa Yulala took off her mask and refrained from commenting on it. She turned and walked towards the apartment door, preparing to meet up with Inspector Megure and the others first.

"stop."

Hasegawa Yu paused, then continued walking forward with his head down.

As a result, after taking just two steps, he stopped walking in the same place.

"Young Master." Matsuda Jinpei, who had come up behind the orange-haired young man at some point, grabbed the back of his collar. "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

They didn't even make eye contact!

After struggling unwillingly for a few times, Hasegawa Yu, who covered his face tightly, didn't understand how he recognized him.

Not knowing that the person in front of him was already "dead", Jinpei Matsuda looked the young man up and down and found his coat to be an eyesore.

Changed your style? But this style... looks a lot like that of a certain blonde and dark-skinned person.

"Your coat taste is really bad today."

"?" Hasegawa Yu looked down at the coat that Ling Ge gave him. It was gray and black, low-key, ordinary, warm and practical. There was nothing wrong with it.

He couldn't help but puff up his cheeks. "It's very rude to casually comment on other people's clothes!"

"It doesn't matter."

Matsuda Jinpei was indifferent to other people's opinions of him. He held onto the back of his collar without loosening his grip and asked again, "Where are you going?"

Hasegawa Yuu fell silent.

After noticing the increasing force on his collar, he whispered, "I'm going to go for a walk upstairs."

Hasegawa Yu had heard the entire conversation between Matsuda Jinpei and the two police officers through Noah's Ark's retelling.

There were bombs planted in this residential area and the Metropolitan Police Department, and they were going to explode in half an hour. He was going to...

Wait, Hasegawa Yuu glanced back secretly. He could ask Noah to go to Inspector Megure to help locate the bomb, while he distracted Senior Matsuda here!

Perfect plan!

"You mean to say you were wandering around the apartment at 1:30 in the morning?"

Matsuda Jinpei released his grip on the back of the collar and instead tapped the young man's cap with his fingers. "Dressed like this, are you scouting the place? Whose house are you planning to break into?"

This hat must be Bourbon.

Seeing the things of someone he hated, Matsuda Jinpei felt even more unhappy.

The young master smells like bourbon today.

It hasn't been long since Hagi arrived in Kyoto, and Hasegawa Yuu is already hooking up with Bourbon!

Thinking of Yukunen's recent actions, Matsuda Jinpei felt sorry for him.

If you want to take it away, just do it well. What’s the difference between letting the puppy roam free and letting him go home?

Hasegawa Yuu protected his hat and said, "This is my personal hobby. Please don't interfere."

Okay, I'll implicitly remind Noah to go first...

"What are you planning?" Matsuda Jinpei put his hands in his pockets, suddenly bent down, and put his forehead against the brim of his baseball cap.

The pair of dark blue eyes, no longer covered by sunglasses, narrowed slightly and looked directly at the young man's almond-shaped eyes that were rolling under the brim of his hat. "Want to go up and find those cops?"

Hasegawa Yu tilted his head back to avoid his movement and took a half step back.

Seeing his reaction, Matsuda Jinpei stood up nonchalantly and said abruptly, "If the bomb countdown signal is cut off, it will explode immediately."

"!" Hasegawa Yu's eyes widened a little, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly stopped.

Can the senior read minds?

Although the young man's face was mostly covered by the mask, Matsuda Jinpei could still see some clues from his eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

"It seems that the young master hates me very much. He doesn't listen to anything I say."

Upon hearing this, one of Hasegawa Yu's radars started buzzing and he turned around and ran.

An arm reached out from behind and clamped around his waist, easily trapping him in place.

Matsuda Jinpei lowered his eyes to look at the young man leaning against his chest. Thinking of the other party's headbutt, he stopped carrying the sack and instead tucked the man into his arms, lifting him up with his strength alone.

"I told you not to let me see you with the cops."

The muscles of the arms on the waist were strong. Hasegawa Yu, who was forced to face down, blushed and was unable to move his arms even a centimeter.

"Senior, just be a shark."

He gave up struggling and muttered, "With such great strength, I will definitely be the king of the baby sharks."

Then he was severely punished by his natural enemy, the killer whale!

Rather than being compared to a shark, Matsuda Jinpei was more concerned about another point, "Who are you calling a baby?"

"The baby killer whale is so cute," Hasegawa Yuu replied immediately. "Although he's naughty, he knows how to control his strength when playing. He's a good baby."

Unlike Baby Shark, which just rushes around.

What a mess.

Matsuda Jinpei snorted, walked to the parking spot near the apartment, threw the person into his car, closed the door and locked it.

After getting up dizzy from the back seat, Hasegawa Yu immediately tried to pry open the door handle.

Can't open.

He went to knock on the car window again, "Senior, let's discuss this."

The black curly-haired senior standing outside the car glanced at him and said nothing.

Hasegawa Yu thought viciously that he might as well let Noah invade the center console and drive away the senior's car.

There is a jammer on this car.

Noah's Ark silently promoted Jinpei Matsuda to the second most annoying human being. [It was activated when Xiaoyou was thrown into the car.]

But he didn't see the senior do anything at all!

The car couldn't drive away, and Hasegawa Yu, feeling a little stuffy, pulled down his mask to breathe and continued to tap on the car window, "Senior, let's talk about the bomb."

"Forget it. There's no remote control for the bombs," Matsuda Jinpei replied in a normal voice. "Dismantle them one by one or detonate them all. There are only two options."

Through the car window, the normal volume became much smaller and seemed hazy.

Hasegawa Yu, who still heard clearly, felt his heart skip a beat. "If the officers make their choice within half an hour, how is the bomb-senpai on the other side going to stop it?"

Staring at his lip movements, Matsuda Jinpei raised an eyebrow and spoke word by word, "Did you eavesdrop on our conversation, or did someone relay it to you?"

He had a hunch that something was wrong with the hedgehog-headed police officer.

But the police can't be the young master's men, so it is more likely that they hacked into the police's mobile phones and eavesdropped on them.

All the humans he met were like cheaters, and Hasegawa Yuu didn't care anymore, "Senior hasn't answered my question yet."

"Did I say that the bomb will stop after you make a choice?" Matsuda Jinpei said with a half-smile.

Upon hearing this, Hasegawa Yu slowly slid down his hand that was on the car window and quietly sat back in his seat.

He remembered Inspector Megure saying that Jinpei Matsuda was a talented police officer so talented that he was recruited by the Explosive Detective Squad in advance.

This type of people can often shine in the areas they are good at.

Hasegawa Yu rarely encounters bombs in his world, but he knows that being a bomb disposal police officer is a very dangerous profession that deserves the respect of many people.

Now, influenced by the collapsed world, the senior has stood on the opposite side of the bomb disposal police, and his talent for bomb disposal has turned into an auxiliary to crime. Hasegawa Yu has no comment on this.

He just thought that the damage to the building was not a big deal, but if someone died because of the senior's bomb in this incident, he would blame himself so much after his memory recovered.

The senior is clearly on the rescue side, a super cool bomb disposal cop.

"It's okay." Hasegawa Yu lowered his head and muttered softly, "Humans who died in the collapsed world will be able to return to their normal trajectory after the world restarts."

You can use this to comfort your seniors!

But he still has to try his best, it would be best if no one dies.

Hasegawa Yu looked up again and stared at the black curly-haired man intently for a moment. "Matsuda-senpai, do you really not have another way to stop your bomb?"

Matsuda Jinpei, who was outside the car, did not have the good hearing of a mermaid, so he did not know what the young man said when he lowered his head.

He only knew that after he finished saying that, the young man lowered his head as if he was shocked, and when he looked up again, he looked at him with his beautiful, moist almond-shaped eyes.

No way, the fragile little master is crying again?

Matsuda Jinpei felt his scalp tingle for some reason. After a moment of silence, he said, "I designed a master bomb. As long as the master bomb is dismantled, the other bombs will stop, and vice versa."

Hasegawa Yu's eyes lit up. Dismantling one bomb is much easier than dismantling a bunch of bombs. "Then how can you tell me where the main bomb is?"

After saying this, Matsuda Jinpei fell silent again.

Is he being controlled by the young master?

He had seen so many guys crying when he was on missions before, but he just continued doing his own thing.

Matsuda Jinpei frowned. Could it be that Hagi was fooled like this?

"Let's do an experiment."

Matsuda Jinpei, who believed he wouldn't be easily influenced by outsiders, half-rolled the car window, not giving anyone a chance to prepare. "Use your 'super hearing' to hear how many micro-explosive bombs I have on me."

"What?……"

Hasegawa Yu, who heard the subtle sound, was shocked and swallowed his unfinished words, "Senior, these bombs are on you!"

"How many are there?" Matsuda Jinpei turned a deaf ear. "Countdown, three, two..."

"Eighteen!" Hasegawa Yu shouted, and counted again anxiously, "The beating frequency is almost the same, but it's still eighteen."

As soon as the words were spoken, the subtle sound stopped without the black curly-haired man making any movement.

"The number is correct."

Matsuda Jinpei's lip curled in satisfaction. "I made casings for five of them out of different materials, including lead. So it seems the young master's 'super hearing' doesn't have the same weaknesses as Superman."

Hasegawa Yu took a deep breath in disbelief. "It's too dangerous, Senior. What if the bomb goes off accidentally?"

The one who gets hurt is you!

"I know my own bomb."

Jinpei Matsuda, who didn't care about the dangerous behavior at all, put one hand through the car window.

“Click—”

A handcuff appeared on Hasegawa Yu's left hand, and the other end was connected to the front seat of the car.

"I'm very satisfied with the results of the experiment, so just stay put, young master." Matsuda Jinpei rolled up the car window and said, "I'll throw you to Speyside later."

The man with black curly hair walked away without looking back.

[I told Megure Jusan about the master bomb.]

Noah's Ark looked at the quieted mermaid. [But the bomb shells were almost identical, making it difficult to tell them apart.]

"I'm so angry." Hasegawa Yu clenched his fists. "You did such a dangerous thing, and you didn't even tell me the location of the main bomb!"

Newborn baby sharks know not to swim into dangerous waters!

To calm himself down, Hasegawa Yu looked out the car window. The car was parked in a place where he could see the residential buildings.

At this time, residents of the residential building were walking out one after another while complaining, apparently having received a bomb evacuation notice.

No one is paying attention here.

Hasegawa Yu touched the handcuffs. If it were a rope, he would be more troubled, but with handcuffs...

The next second, the navy blue Mazda parked in the corner vibrated slightly, and irreparable cracks appeared on the body of the car.

Rubbing his wrist, Hasegawa Yu opened the door and got out of the car, putting on a mask, "Noah, tell me the location of the bomb in the residential building."

The sound, the sound, will it be the same as what he thinks?

Following the guidance of artificial intelligence, Hasegawa Yu listened to the beating rhythm of each bomb and successfully found one with a different frequency.

He endured the feeling of his head exploding from the excessive noise, and let out a breath, "Go up two floors, the bombs there are different."

[There are still fifteen minutes left, enough time to evacuate all residents. There are also very few police officers on duty at the Metropolitan Police Department at night.]

Noah's Ark is worried, [Xiaoyou, do you want to take a rest first? ]

Hasegawa Yu touched his chest and said, "But I always feel like something is wrong."

Although he was not good at getting lost, he trusted his intuition.

"Boom—"

The apartment building trembled briefly; an explosion occurred on an upper floor.

【It's not Jinpei Matsuda's bomb.】

Noah's Ark's tone suddenly became more serious. "I just detected several newly activated bomb signals."

【Wait a few seconds. 】

As he spoke, the AI quickly found the source: "Among the evacuated residents was Rum's man, who was ordered to plant the bomb."

His goal was to investigate Section 1, and also to lure out those who might be secretly assisting Section 1.

Inspector Megure and the others are still upstairs!

Hasegawa Yu, who had been running through residential buildings trying to figure out which one was the master bomb, took another step, panting a little as he spoke. "Noah said earlier that Officer Kazami was also one of Rum's men?"

Yuya Kazami is also upstairs. Will Rum even bomb his own people?

When Noah's Ark eavesdropped on the conversation between Jinpei Matsuda and the police officers, they monitored everyone's cell phones just in case, and happened to discover that Yuya Kazami was contacting someone else.

Not only that, he also detected that Yuya Kazami sent an email to Reiya Furuya.

However, some of the content in the email that Fūya Zero replied to was a string of garbled codes that Noah's Ark could not understand.

He didn't understand what was going on yet, so he didn't tell the mermaid.

[The bomb didn't affect the entire building, and Kazami Yuya was able to evacuate in time by seizing the opportunity.]

"Boom—"

Another explosion was heard, this time from downstairs.

Hasegawa Yu gave up studying the villain's thought process, he could already feel the heat wave.

The air has dried out.

Hasegawa Yu licked his lips and finally ran to the target floor, which was only one floor away from the location of the main control bomb.

The residents of this floor had already been evacuated, and now only a few police officers and a strange man were left here.

The windows on the upper floors were wide open, and the pungent smoke drifting up from below quickly filled the air.

Hasegawa Yu suppressed the urge to cough, hid in the corner, and pricked up his ears to listen to the movement inside.

"Could it be that Lord Rum guessed wrong?"

The strange man pointed his gun at Megure Jusan and said, "It's already this late, and your helpers haven't shown up yet?"

Miwako Sato fell to the ground, covering her abdomen where she was shot, with her eyes closed and breathing rapidly.

Megure Jusan also pointed the gun in his hand at the man, "I don't understand what you mean."

Yu Fumihiro, who was previously upstairs, is nowhere to be found.

"Forget it, why would I waste my time talking to a dead person?"

The stranger raised the remote control in his hand and said, "The people in the residential building have not yet been evacuated. If you want them to survive, tell me where you got the bribe list."

"I told you, someone sent it to me anonymously, and I don't know where he got it from." Megure Jusan insisted.

"Really?" The strange man pressed the button.

"Boom—"

There was an explosion sounded from two floors below. Hasegawa Yu, who happened to be standing at the corner and felt the heat, unconsciously stepped back.

The strange man snorted and laughed, "I'll give you one more chance. Is the bribe list related to Hasegawa Yu? The next time will be downstairs."

"No." Megure Jusan said without hesitation.

The strange man stroked the remote control, pondering in silence.

Hasegawa Yu listened attentively downstairs, and after making sure that the fire could not reach the main control bomb for the time being, he took out the gun given to him by Furuya Zero from his bag.

The main bomb is located on the floor below. We cannot blow it up again, otherwise no one in this building will be able to escape.

When he pulled out the gun, an old flip phone also fell out. The breathing light on the phone flashed, indicating that there was an incoming call.

It's bourbon.

Hasegawa Yu, who had no time to answer, pursed his lips and pointed the gun at the remote control in the man's hand.

Due to the sudden situation, Megure Juzo obviously did not have time to read the message sent to him by Noah's Ark, nor did he know the location of the main control bomb.

Hasegawa Yu closed his eyes and tried hard to recall the gun training during this period.

His aim has always been poor, and the remote control is small, so he is not sure he can hit the target in one go.

Brother Ling once said that when you cannot ensure that you can hit the primary target 100%, you should look for a second target with a larger area that can affect the primary target.

Thinking of this, Hasegawa Yu moved the muzzle of the gun in his hand slightly and tensed his arms.

"Bang--"

"Well!"

A bloody splash appeared on the stranger's shoulder, and he was forced to let go of the remote control in his hand.

Megure Juzo seized the opportunity and rushed forward, trying to subdue him.

During the fight, both men's guns were thrown aside.

The stranger's physical skills were obviously much better than the fat police officer's. After being briefly at a disadvantage, he began to fight back quickly.

"Don't move!" Hasegawa Yu came out from the corner, stopped him and pointed the gun at him.

The strange man who was about to get the gun stopped and looked up at the young man whose face could not be seen clearly.

"As Lord Rum expected, there is indeed someone behind you."

Hasegawa Yuu stared at his movements and did not answer.

Megure Jusan took a breath, pressed the man under him again, and prepared to handcuff him.

Seeing this, the stranger who had been quiet suddenly stood up to resist, threw Megure Jusan aside, ignored the gun pointed at him, and rushed towards the pistol on the ground beside him.

Hasegawa Yu gritted his teeth, aimed at his thigh and fired another shot.

The bullet penetrated the stranger's thigh, but he also managed to get the gun.

"You seem a little soft-hearted."

The stranger raised his gun and backed away, letting the wounds on his shoulder and thigh burst open. "Otherwise, you should have aimed for my head with your first shot."

Megure Jusan, who was injured on the back of his head, realized his purpose and snatched the remote control in his hand faster than the stranger.

The strange man didn't care. After all, his goal had been achieved and he could retreat.

But before that, if I could see this person's face clearly...

Suddenly, the strange man's eyes fixed, "Bourbon, why are you here?"

Hasegawa Yu was startled, and before he could turn around subconsciously, a body covered him from behind.

"I said why didn't you answer the phone."

Fūya Rei ignored the strange man and covered the gun handle held by Hasegawa Yu with one hand, as if the two were still in gun training.

"Just keep your hands clean while holding the microphone. Leave the criminals to us..."

He paused, "Just leave it to this bad guy like me."

A low voice sounded in his ears, and Hasegawa Yu turned his head to look at him in a daze.

Perhaps influenced by the fire outside the building, the blond man's purple-gray eyes were also tinged with a bit of light.

What? Hasegawa Yu's eyelashes trembled. When he heard the first half of the sentence, he almost thought that Brother Ling was a policeman.

The gun in his hand was gently taken away by the blond man.

"Bang--"

"Bourbon, you!" The stranger who was shot in the heart stammered a few times and fell straight back.

"I'm sorry, you saw something you shouldn't have." Furuya Ling smiled calmly, "So, stay with your bomb."

Hasegawa Yu opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

He came to his senses and hurried to help the man, "Officer Megure, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Megure Jusan staggered to his feet, "Send Sato down first, she's been shot."

"Let me do it." Fūya Ling sighed secretly, thinking of the word he couldn't say just now, and took the initiative to carry the female police officer on his back.

His image cannot be salvaged.

Considering that the blond man had just killed someone, Megure Jusan hesitated, "You..."

"Brother Ling can be trusted." Hasegawa Yuu didn't care about anything else and urged: "The flames are about to affect the main bomb. Let's retreat first."

When going downstairs, Hasegawa Yu did not forget to open his hearing test, "The residents of this building should be able to run..."

No, why are there still footsteps?

"Brother Zero, Officer Megure, you go first, I will follow immediately." Hasegawa Yu covered his mouth and nose and ran towards the source of the sound.

On a floor halfway through the flames, Jinpei Matsuda, wearing a smoke mask, bent down to pick up a piece of bomb debris. "This style... Rum...?"

"Matsuda-senpai! Why is it you again?!"

Matsuda Jinpei, who was concentrating on studying the bomb fragments, shuddered, as if he was being called by a super angry Koujinran.

Looking closely, it was not Youjunran, but the fragile young master.

"Can't you see such a huge flame?"

After finally getting himself mentally prepared and overcoming his fear of fire, he ran in. Hasegawa Yu grabbed his arm and dragged him out. "The main bomb is on this floor. It's going to explode in less than three minutes!"

"I dismantled the master bomb."

Matsuda Jinpei, who for some reason did not dare to resist, argued plausibly, "I calculated the duration of the flames and was able to evacuate in time."

"And the person who tricked me..."

The thin mask couldn't block the increasingly thick smoke. Hasegawa Yu coughed a few times and said, "Please be quiet for a moment, senior."

Matsuda Jinpei touched the smoke mask on his face, then looked at the fragile young master who was coughing continuously with only a mask on, and tentatively said, "I'll put on the mask..."

"Glenwit."

Fūya Rei, who had quickly sent someone down and returned to look for them, appeared in front. "I didn't expect that you would be the one who didn't know how to escape from a fire."

"Tsk." Matsuda Jinpei took back his words.

Hasegawa Yu walked down without saying a word.

The three managed to leave the apartment building.

Hasegawa Yu released the arm he had been holding all the way, "Senior, it's okay for you to hurt your own kind, after all, you are a bad guy."

Matsuda Jinpei remained silent, speaking as if you were not of the same kind.

"But you jumped from a building with just a rope, tested my hearing with a bomb on your body, and wandered around in a fire scene like nothing happened..."

Hasegawa Yu took a deep breath and coughed a few times, his voice a little hoarse.

Jinpei Matsuda turned his head away and said nothing.

"That's right, I have no right to control you."

As he spoke, Hasegawa Yu's tone suddenly became much lower, "But worrying about you is my business, senior has no right to interfere."

Those orange-gold eyes looked over again with moisture.

Matsuda Jinpei turned back and said, "I..."

He has always done this!

"I know that only Yan Er is qualified to manage seniors."

Hasegawa Yuu didn't look at him again, and lowered his head dejectedly. "Goodbye, senior. I have to go back. I'm so thirsty."

My body is so dry and hot, I feel like I’m turning into a dried fish.

I really want to take a bath.

"wait……"

Before Matsuda Jinpei could say anything else, the orange-haired young man shook his body and fell down instantly.

Matsuda Jinpei: “!”

Before the black curly-haired man could catch him, Furuya Rei grabbed the young man who was about to fall into the snow.

"I'll go to the hospital first." He picked up the person without looking at Jinpei Matsuda.

"Together."

Fūya Rei didn't want to waste his time on such matters, so he agreed.

Ten minutes later, a white Mazda stopped in front of a familiar clinic.

"What? You said he had a heat stroke?!"

After hearing the doctor's diagnosis, Jinpei Matsuda suspected that he was hallucinating.

"You're saying that someone who can get caught in a heavy rain for half an hour in temperatures over 10 degrees Celsius and not get sick, gets heatstroke in sub-zero weather with snow?! And even mildly dehydrated?!"

"Getting caught in a rainstorm?!" Hearing this for the first time, Furuya Ling tilted his head and said grimly, "Granvert, you're fine."

At this moment, a sharp brake sound was heard at the door of the clinic.

After finishing his work, Hagiwara Kenji, who had rushed back overnight, strode in. "It's the middle of the night, and you two are really energetic."

"We all have the energy, so let's talk about what happened tonight. Let's shock Kenji-chan too."

Looking at the half-long-haired man with a friendly smile, Matsuda Jinpei swallowed his saliva.

Damn it, the super angry Xiao Xunran is really here this time.
