Time ticked by.
In the office, the timer on the timer is decreasing rapidly!
One second, two seconds, three seconds!
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock!
The sound of death echoes in the office. There are less than six minutes left before the timer goes off!
Xie Huilan's eyes were filled with anger. Anger, anxiety, touched, gentleness. She stared at Dong Xuebing without blinking. She stared at Dong Xuebing and stared at him. Dong Xuebing had completely given up hope. He held Sister Xie's soft hand tightly and sat beside her, holding her hand and accompanying her.
Death is approaching them!
"Get out of here!" Xie Huilan finally squeezed out these two words.
Dong Xuebing was unmoved. "What's the point of saying this now? I had broken the door lock. "
"Call someone to break the door! It's still not too late! "Xie Huilan took a deep breath." I beg you! "
Dong Xuebing took out his mobile phone from his pocket and switched it off.
Xie Huilan shouted. "Nonsense!"
"I always thought that I could live to seventy, or at least fifty or sixty. Man proposes, God disposes. Heh, I didn't expect that I only have a few minutes left." Dong Xuebing looks at the time on the time bomb. "Sister Xie, we still have about 5 minutes left. Don't talk about leaving or not. We only have a little time left, and we shouldn't waste it." Dong Xuebing paused for a second. "Since I can't save you, and I have no intention of leaving this room. Let's … talk for one last time."
Xie Huilan scolded. "Idiot!"
Dong Xuebing smiled. "I am about to die, and you are still scolding me?"
"Is there anyone more stupid than you? You are asking for it! You deserve to be scolded! "
Dong Xuebing looks at Xie Huilan. "Sister Xie, I know you are also concerned about me. Last night, you scolded me for a long time, and I thought other than me, you don't care about anyone else. Actually, what I said last night was just because I was angry. I was complaining that even without you, I can still live well. But if I don't see you for a few months, I will not be able to eat, let alone leave you."
Xie Huilan's expression softened when she heard this.
"I also know I am silly. Wei Nan had driven over, and he did not even dare to get close to the cordon. After watching for a while, he quickly boarded his car. Even the bomb disposal experts rushed out after a few minutes. They are afraid of the bomb exploding. Haha … I am the only one who came here like a fool and even smashed the door. Sister Xie, you had told me that my character is not suitable to be a government official, and I am too impulsive. I understand and want to change, but I can't."
"… I have to do it even if I can't!"
"How do you do something you can't do?"
"I don't believe that you can't kick open this door! It's not that you don't want to do it! You just don't want to do it! "
"Sister Xie, let me be impulsive for the last time. I will not listen to you this time."
"Since when did you listen to me?"
"Maybe in the future. I will listen to you in the future."
Xie Huilan pushed Dong Xuebing's hand away. "It will be over in five minutes! What's the point of talking about the future? "
Dong Xuebing replied. "… then in our next life. I will listen to you in our next life."
"Xiao Dong … Xiao Dong! What do you want me to say? " Xie Huilan still wanted to scold Dong Xuebing, but she could not bring herself to say it. She sighed and held Dong Xuebing's hand. "You must listen to me this time. Call the people outside and ask them to break down the door. You are still young, and you still have a long way to go. What's the point of dying with me?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "There's no point, and I cannot leave."
"Xiao Dong!"
"Let's not talk about this."
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock … … There's only four minutes left!
Xie Huilan kept scolding Dong Xuebing. She wants Dong Xuebing to leave immediately. But her throat was dry, and Dong Xuebing did not move. Xie Huilan's heart tightened. She knew it's useless to say anything. Even if someone breaks down the door, Dong Xuebing will not leave.
"I'm sorry." Dong Xuebing had apologized for many reasons.
Xie Huilan looked at Dong Xuebing and sighed. "What's there to apologize now?"
Dong Xuebing replied bitterly. "If I don't apologize now, I will not have the chance in the future. Sister Xie, I am really sorry. A dying man's words are kind, and I don't want to lie to you. I really like you and Aunt Xuan. I will do anything for you. I really don't know what to do. I can't bear to leave her, and I also can't bear to leave you. I really did not want you to be so angry. I … … Sigh … … I … …"
Xie Huilan looked at Dong Xuebing. "Stop talking. I forgive you."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. "Sister Xie …"
Xie Huilan touched Dong Xuebing's hand. "No matter what you did, I will forgive you now."
"You are not angry with me anymore?"
Xie Huilan closed her eyes. "You are willing to give up your life to accompany me for a few minutes. Angry? How can I be angry with you? "
"… thank you."
"I should be the one thanking you. I am satisfied to have someone who loves me so much."
One second passed …
Five seconds passed …
Ten seconds passed … …
Bang, bang, bang … … Someone was trying to open the office door, and someone was knocking on the door. It was the Public Security Bureau, and someone was shouting Dong Xuebing's name.
"Chief Dong, are you in there?"
"Why is the door locked? Go and find the keys! There's no time! "
"Mayor Xie! Chief Dong! Open the door! "
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and was about to shout for her men to kick the door open. Dong Xuebing quickly covered her mouth and told them to leave first. He will leave immediately. A few seconds later, there was no movement outside. Dong Xuebing moved his hand away from Xie Huilan's red lips and sat beside her. He smiled. "It's rare for me to be so brave. Don't discourage me, alright? Accompany you. This is the last thing I can do in this life. Let me finish it, okay? "
Xie Huilan stroked Dong Xuebing's face. "To be honest, I also want to bring you away, but I can't."
"You are not bringing me away. Let's go together."
"Xiao Dong!"
Dong Xuebing stood up and hugged Xie Huilan from behind. "There are only two minutes left. Should we hold hands or hug each other?"
Xie Huilan closed her eyes. "I don't want you to die!"
"I also don't want you to die."
There are two minutes and thirty seconds left!
Dong Xuebing replied. "You should know my leg is still recovering, and I can't kick the door open. Even if I use my phone to call the people outside, it's too late. I will die anyway. Stop saying all these things. You know I will not leave."
Xie Huilan closed her eyes, and a tear rolled down her cheeks.
Dong Xuebing's heart skipped a beat and wiped her face with his sleeve. "You … are crying?"
Xie Huilan did not reply.
Dong Xuebing continued. "This is the first time I saw you cry. I thought you … will never cry in your life."
"I am not a metal puppet. How can I not cry?" Xie Huilan opened her eyes, and there was a determined look in her eyes. "If we can get out of here alive, we will pick an auspicious date next year to get married. We will prepare a hundred banquets and hold our wedding in a grand ceremony."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "If I can marry you, my ancestors will be happy, and my mother will be overjoyed."
"Hmm, then let the old man have some fun."
But both of them knew they will not have the chance to leave this door.
Drip …
Drip …
Drip …
There are only two minutes and fifteen seconds left on the timer.
Xie Huilan turned to Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Bing, come to the front. Let me take a good look at you."
Dong Xuebing nodded and squatted in front of her. "Let's see."
Xie Huilan stretched out her hand and touched Dong Xuebing's face and hair. "If you had not risked your life to save me when I fell into the water, I will not be alive today. No matter what happens after that, I owe you. If I can't repay you in this life, I will repay you in my next life."
Dong Xuebing's eyes were wet. "Then marry me in your next life."
"Ok."
"Marry me in your next life."
"… ok."
"Same in my next life."
"Ok. No matter how many times I reincarnate, I will marry you."
Dong Xuebing wiped the tears from his eyes and hugged Xie Huilan. He is afraid she will fly away suddenly. Xie Huilan also hugged Dong Xuebing with one hand and smiled.
One second … …
Two seconds … …
Three seconds … …
Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan hugged each other and were prepared to die.
"Two minutes left." Xie Huilan suddenly said. "Xiao Bing, pass me the scissors."
Dong Xuebing looked at her. "Why do you need the scissors?"
"There's no time. Let's try one last time. I want to cut a few wires. Haha … What if I am lucky and stop the timer?"
Dong Xuebing shook his head. "Even the bomb disposal experts cannot do anything, let alone us."
Xie Huilan replied. "I know. But dying in your own hands is more meaningful than waiting for your death. Don't you think so?"
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and nodded. "Let me do it. My luck has always been good."
After saying this, Dong Xuebing was stunned!
Wait!
Wait!
Cut the wires? Cut the wires? Cut the wires?
Dong Xuebing jumped up from the ground. "Where are the scissors? Where did I throw the scissors? "
Xie Huilan was stunned. "What's the hurry?"
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and said excitedly. "I have an idea! Both of us might not have to die! "
"What is it?"
"Defuse the bomb!" Dong Xuebing looked around and saw a pair of Bomb Disposal scissors beside the chair. He rushed over and grabbed the scissors. "I had watched the movie before! In the movie, there is a sequence of wires used to defuse the bombs. As long as the wires can be defused in the sequence, the timer will stop! That's right! That's right! Yes! Just don't cut the wrong wires! "
Xie Huilan was stunned. "But even the bomb disposal experts cannot defuse the wires. I heard it is very complicated."
Dong Xuebing replied. "They can't! But I can! "
"Xiao Bing, are you serious?"
"Yes! Of course! "Dong Xuebing squatted down in front of the bomb." Trust me! I can defuse it! Of course! "
Xie Huilan smiled. "Go ahead and cut the wires. Don't feel too pressured. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."
There's 1 minute and 44 seconds left!
The bomb disposal experts had already touched the bomb, and the wires, wires, and copper pieces inside are all visible. But what surprised Dong Xuebing is the bombs in the movies are very different from the ones in front of him. In the movies, the wires are red, blue, yellow, green, etc. For example, if there are two blue and green wires next to each other, only one of them will be correct. The bomb disposal experts also use the colors to differentiate the wires.
But the bomb in Xie Huilan's body is different.
There are more than a dozen wires in the bomb, and only one is red. Other than that, there are many copper pieces, circuit boards, and a few thin copper wires. Without the red and blue wires, there is no 50% chance of success. What Dong Xuebing learned in the movies is useless. Dong Xuebing knows movies are fictional, and this bomb might be special. There are too many blue wires of the same color, and the bomb disposal experts can't do anything.
All the wires are blue. Which one should I cut?
What should I do? What should I do?
Dong Xuebing focused on the bomb. Hope is right in front of him, and he can see the only way out. Calm down. I must calm down.
1 second … …
2 seconds … …
Dong Xuebing was sweating. There is no time for him to think. Cut!
Dong Xuebing tried his luck and cut the only red line in front of him!
Click! The red wire was cut!
The next moment! A wave of boiling hot air instantly burst out from the bomb! Xie Huilan is engulfed! Dong Xuebing is engulfed! The whole office is engulfed! Before Dong Xuebing could react, his vision turned black, and he could not see his own fingers. He knew he and Sister Xie are dead. Dong Xuebing's eyes turned red when he thought of Xie Huilan's beautiful body!
Damn!
BACK 4 seconds!
… …
The scene flashed!
Dong Xuebing held the scissors and cut the only red wire. When he was about to use force, he quickly stops himself. He took a deep breath and pulled out the scissors carefully. He looked to the side and was about to cut the nearest blue wire!
Click! Dong Xuebing cut the first wire!
Boom! The hot air tore his and Sister Xie's bodies apart!
Dong Xuebing screamed in pain and quickly shouted. "BACK 3 seconds!"
… …
Time returned to normal!
Dong Xuebing was panting heavily. He did not have the time to reminisce about that terrifying feeling. He quickly picked the third blue thread and cut it with the scissors! Click! Dong Xuebing had closed his eyes reflexively, but the shockwave did not hit him. He blinked his eyes and looked at the grenade!
The wire was cut, but it did not explode!
Success! It was one wire!
Although the timer was still ticking, Dong Xuebing was overjoyed! There's hope! There's still hope!
Dong Xuebing did not dare to delay and cut the fourth wire. Click! The wire was cut, but it still did not explode!
Success again!
The fifth wire … …
The sixth wire … …
The seventh wire … …
Dong Xuebing cut the wires one by one. He did not know how many times he had died, and he was numb to it. There was a total of 15 blue wires, and Dong Xuebing had cut all of them. Other than the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth wires, the rest of the wires could not be cut. The timer was still the same. Dong Xuebing also tried cutting the last red wire, but it could not be cut.
By this time, all the blue and red wires that were wrapped in insulation had been cut by him.
Dong Xuebing took out the scissors again and realized there were no more wires left. He had cut all the wires.
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and looked at the two thin wires without any insulation. He raised his hand and cut one of the wires. Boom! A bright light shone into his eyes, and the bomb exploded. Dong Xuebing immediately shouted BACK 3 seconds and stopped. He changed his direction and cut the other wire. Click … … nothing happened.
Another wire was cut!
Dong Xuebing got excited and moved the scissors back to the first wire. But this wire could not be cut. There was no time to think as Dong Xuebing does not know how to defuse bombs. But even fools have their ways. He twisted his wrist and started cutting the blue wires one by one. One wire, two wires, three wires. The third to sixth wire was cut, and this time, four more wires were cut. The first, second, ninth, and twelfth wires were cut.
Dong Xuebing was overjoyed and cut the red wires again.
This wire was still not working, and the bomb had blown Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan up several times.
Then I will choose the metal wire!
Bada! The last metal wire could be cut again, and nothing unexpected happened!
Dong Xuebing looked at the timer on the bomb, and he continued to cut the remaining blue wires. This time, the seventh and eighth wires were cut, and there were only a few left. Dong Xuebing knew he was one step closer to victory. But before he could celebrate, he realized there were no more wires to cut. The red wire, the blue wire, and the metal wire were all gone.
What should I do?
There are no more wires left to cut?
To Dong Xuebing, a long time had passed, but every time he used BACK, he would cut the wires quickly. That's why there were only about 50 seconds left on the bomb, and there was only 1 minute and 8 seconds left!
But it's too late!
He had no more wires to cut!
Dong Xuebing is not willing to be blown up like this. He gritted his teeth and cursed. Dong Xuebing inserted the scissors into one of the two metal plates on the circuit board and twisted it. The metal plate was bent off the circuit board by the scissors. But to Dong Xuebing's surprise, the bomb did not explode!
There's hope!
This copper plate is also a mechanism!
Dong Xuebing quickly moved to the other metal plate. Bada! This metal plate was easily broken.
Now, there are only one red wire and a few blue wires left. Other than that, there were no other mechanisms. Dong Xuebing tried to cut the blue lines one by one. This time, three more blue lines were cut. Now, there is only one red line and two blue lines left!
… …
Before Dong Xuebing threw the scissors, Xie Huilan was prepared to die. She smiled and looked at Dong Xuebing, waiting for the bomb to kill them. Click! The wires were cut, but nothing happened! Those bomb disposal experts did not even dare to touch a single wire, and Dong Xuebing cut the first wire. Xie Huilan felt that he was lucky. She smiled and did not say anything. She waited for her death to come.
After that, the second wire was cut.
The third wire … the fourth wire … the fifth wire …
In the blink of an eye, Dong Xuebing had cut more than a dozen wires and even broke the metal plates. But nothing happened.
Xie Huilan's expression changed. She was stunned and speechless. She saw Dong Xuebing was not moving, and she finally said something. "Xiao Bing, I feel God is watching over you. Sometimes, I don't know what to say about your luck." Xie Huilan looked at the bomb on her body and smiled. "There are only three wires left?"
There are only about 30 seconds left before the bomb explodes.
Dong Xuebing anxiously said. "I can't cut any of the three wires. Damn! How did this happen? "
Xie Huilan looked at Dong Xuebing and sighed. "You had tried your best. If you can't … just forget it."
"Forget it?! I still want to go out and marry you! " Dong Xuebing was getting frustrated. That red wire should be the last one to be cut. But now, the other two blue wires cannot be cut. What should he do? He only has less than 20 seconds of BACK left!
There was no time left for either of them!
Drip … drip … drip …
Dong Xuebing's back was soaked in sweat. What should he do? Why can't he cut the wires?!
There are 15 seconds left before the bomb explodes!
Dong Xuebing grabbed his hair crazily and hit his head!
Am I going to die? Is there no hope?
There are 10 seconds left before the bomb explodes!
Eight seconds …
Seven seconds …
Six seconds …
Five seconds …
Xie Huilan reached out and held Dong Xuebing's hand. "Remember to listen to me in your next life. Don't be so silly."
Next life? Bullshit!
I want this life!
Three seconds …
Two seconds …
Dong Xuebing was furious. He picked up the scissors and cut the wires!
Fight!
I can't cut one wire at a time! Then I will cut both blue wires at the same time!
Click! The blue wires were cut!
Beep! The time bomb made a long beeping sound!
Am I dead? Did I explode? Dong Xuebing smiled and closed his eyes.
One second … two seconds … the expected explosion did not happen.
Eh? Dong Xuebing opened his eyes, and under Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan's shocked gaze, the timer stopped!
It stopped at the one second mark!!
Damn! It stopped!
Dong Xuebing was stunned and quickly cut the red wires short!
Click! This time, the timer had been completely destroyed! There were no more numbers!
Dong Xuebing was so excited that he could not speak. Click! Xie Huilan cut the electrical belt on her waist!
One second passed. Two seconds passed. Still nothing happened!
Xie Huilan finally stood up from her chair and looked at Dong Xuebing in disbelief. "It didn't explode? It really didn't explode? "
Dong Xuebing almost cried. He rushed forward and hugged her tightly!
Xie Huilan's eyes were also filled with tears. She opened her arms and hugged Dong Xuebing. "You are great! You managed to dismantle it? "
