Most of the surrounding people had been evacuated, but there were too many boats under the bridge and they couldn’t evacuate them all in this short period of time.

Luo Qing Chen carefully unwrapped the box and seriously looked at the bomb that was counting down.

This was a time bomb made of mercury balls and wrapped wires. There were a total of seven crossed wires and if she snipped even a single wrong wire, the mercury would immediately explode.

Furthermore, because it was made with mercury balls, the bomb couldn’t be moved since the mercury balls would immediately explode if it felt any tremor.

This kind of bomb wasn’t considered special, two kinds of special detonation devices could improve the accuracy of the blast.

Luo Qing Chen carefully opened the LCD panel and began defusing the bomb.

She slightly pursed her lips as she went over the mercury bomb defusal method in her mind before cutting the first yellow wire.

Thunder filled the sky and rain poured down, falling onto Luo Qing Chen’s face. She was no longer able to distinguish between rain and sweat. In this moment of concentration, every single cell in her body was focused.

She didn’t dare make the smallest mistake.

The police around her didn’t leave. They firmly stood there like a protective line for the people, not moving at all.

Du Jiu Sheng’s hands were in his pocket and tightly clenched into fists. He didn’t open an umbrella as he looked at Luo Qing Chen without turning, letting the rain wash over him.

Time passed minute by minute, second by second, as Luo Qing Chen cut the wires one by one.

Suddenly, Luo Qing Chen trembled as her lips couldn’t help raising into a helpless smile. Her right hand weakly came down as she gave a deep sigh.

Everyone took a cold breath as they blankly looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

At this moment, there were three minutes left before the explosion.

Du Jiu Sheng’s eyes flickered with an unpredictable look.

He passed through the cordon and firmly walked towards Luo Qing Chen.

At this time, there was no difference between walking towards her and walking towards death.

Du Jiu Sheng stood behind her and his gentle as water voice slowly came out, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”

There were only two wires left on the bomb.

One was red and one was green.

It wasn’t that Luo Qing Chen wasn’t cutting them, it was because the two wires…..

Ended in the same place!

It meant that the person defusing the bomb had to take a gamble in this moment.

Escaping if they won the bet, dying if they lost the bet.

There was only a minute left before the explosion.

Luo Qing Chen softly said, “Run now, there’s still time. I don’t dare guarantee how many people will die under the bridge.”

Du Jiu Sheng didn’t say anything as Luo Qing Chen kept going, “I’ll take a gamble.”

There was no reply from behind her.

She slowly turned around looking at Du Jiu Sheng in the rain. She seemed to see a certain meaning in his eyes and the words ‘you leave first’ was stuck in her mouth, turning into..,…

“What, you want to die with me?” In her clear eyes, there was a rarely seen decisive look.

These words were like flirting. At the Magpie Bridge, in this kind of rain, it seemed just right.

Du Jiu Sheng trembled as his brows relaxed and he revealed a faint smile, “Alright!”

He never thought that he would end his life like this, but this situation seemed like it…..wasn’t bad.

The Magpie Bridge on the Qixi Festival, as the sky turned red from the sun setting. The clear water, everything seemed like a dream.
