Detonate
The revolver engraved with rose patterns burst forth with blinding firelight. A bullet whizzed through the gap between two Silver Phantoms, hitting the head of the Silver Phantom in front of the underground steps!
Sparks splattered. The impact force of the bullet made the Silver Phantom tilt its head slightly, but only left an extremely tiny crater on its surface...
It slowly turned its head, locking onto Huang Suyue not far away, seeming somewhat angry.
It leaped up forcefully, directly treading on the roof of the shop beside it. At an astonishing speed, along with the other three Silver Phantoms, it rushed towards Huang Suyue.
Huang Suyue's face was incomparably pale. Gritting her teeth, she turned her head and ran wildly behind her.
Huang Suyue's running wasn't because she was afraid, but because she knew she couldn't escape death today, and at least before she died, she would lure these Silver Phantoms away from the range of the Shelter as much as possible.
A long dress ran in the rain, four silver monsters swept across the roofs and streets, pouncing on the young girl's body from different directions. Their speed was too fast, just a light blink of an eye, and the distance between the two sides rapidly shrank!
Just as Huang Suyue was about to close her eyes and accept her fate, a figure abruptly rushed out from the Jinghong Theater!
Hearing this voice, Huang Suyue's pupils slightly contracted,
She abruptly turned her head to look, only to see Kong Baosheng standing under the rain-drenched eaves, holding the Detonator in one hand, his eyes firmly roaring at the several Silver Phantoms!
Not far from him, was that Dessert Shop piled full of Explosives... which was also the second trap Huang Suyue personally laid.
In this instant, Huang Suyue guessed Kong Baosheng's thoughts. He wanted to lure away these monsters, then use himself as bait, and use the trap to finish off these Silver Phantoms!
But what a pity... Things weren't as simple as Kong Baosheng thought.
Huang Suyue's gunshot had already maxed out the aggro of the four Silver Phantoms. None of them even looked at the youth roaring in the rain, but continued to bite onto Huang Suyue!
Huang Suyue's eyes stared intently at the Detonator in Kong Baosheng's hand. In her deathly gray eyes, a wisp of faint light rekindled.
She immediately changed direction, rushing towards the Dessert Shop!
Huang Suyue and the four Silver Phantoms successively swept past Kong Baosheng's eyes. Unsure if it was Kong Baosheng's misconception, in that instant, Huang Suyue seemed to have deeply glanced at him... Her gaze incomparably complicated.
"Damn it... why can't I attract them?!"
Kong Baosheng picked up a stone, angrily smashing it at the four Silver Phantoms in the rain, but in just a blink of an eye, those Silver Phantoms had already sprinted far away, completely unable to touch them at all.
Just as Kong Baosheng was annoyed, Huang Suyue had already rushed into the Dessert Shop!
Her hair and cheeks were both soaked. Unsure if it was sweat or rain, after she rushed into the Dessert Shop, she abruptly turned around, shouting loudly:
"Baosheng!!"
These two words pierced through layers of rain curtains, falling into Kong Baosheng's ears, making his whole body jolt!
Looking at Huang Suyue who had already rushed into the shop, he seemed to understand something, his face instantly deathly pale... Originally, he intended to lure the monsters away for Huang Suyue, bringing them to the Dessert Shop trap to perish together. He felt a good person like Miss Huang shouldn't die here... But now, the situation was completely different.
Huang Suyue was in the trap; the Detonator was in his hand.
Huang Suyue calling his name, was telling him to seize the opportunity, wait until the four Silver Phantoms broke into the Dessert Shop, and then press the Detonator, blowing everything to ashes.
But...
But Huang Suyue wasn't Little Five. She couldn't use the Divine Path to escape the trap. Once he pressed the Detonator, Huang Suyue would also be buried inside;
Two Silver Phantoms successively rushed to the door of the Dessert Shop, while the other two directly flipped down from the roof. The four tall figures had already blocked the door of the Dessert Shop, beginning to move inside.
Drip, drop—— Drip, drop——
Drops of water dripped from the tips of Huang Suyue's hair,
Standing in the room, her hands gripped the revolver, the muzzle pointing at the four constantly approaching Silver Phantoms, calmly pulling the trigger!
Bang bang bang bang——!!
The revolver's cylinder constantly spun, bullet casings falling to the ground clinking and clanging.
Four bullets burst forth one after another. At such close range, they precisely hit the head of every single Silver Phantom. Firelight splattered one after another, and the Silver Phantoms' anger grew increasingly vigorous.
This revolver had a total of only six bullets. As Huang Suyue stopped shooting, only the last one remained in the chamber.
"Kong Baosheng!!!" She shouted loudly once more.
As her voice fell, she pressed the muzzle of the revolver against her own temple, her pale face full of determination... The last bullet, she left for herself.
Her action was telling Kong Baosheng that she already had no chance of walking out of this Dessert Shop;
She knew asking this child Kong Baosheng to personally press the Detonator was an extremely cruel thing, but right now there was no choice... Either she ended herself with a gunshot before being torn to pieces by the Silver Phantoms; or press the Detonator, taking her and the several Silver Phantoms ascending to heaven together.
Seeing this scene, Kong Baosheng's whole body was trembling uncontrollably.
The reason he summoned up the courage to rush out, was because he felt Huang Suyue was a good person, the person who had treated him the best since he grew up, aside from Grandmother and Mister Lin... He didn't want Miss Huang to die. Anyway, he had nothing left now, he would rather use his own life to exchange for Miss Huang's life.
But now... he was going to personally kill Huang Suyue.
His emotional side told him, he couldn't do it; but looking at Huang Suyue in the shop pressing the muzzle against herself, his rational side told him there was no choice.
Kong Baosheng panted heavily. Those bloodshot eyes glared at the Silver Phantom in the shop that was about to swing its blade at Huang Suyue's head, ultimately still closing his eyes...
He forcefully pressed the Detonator!
Boom——!!!
An earth-shattering roar sounded,
Kong Baosheng didn't open his eyes. He didn't see the blazing fire burning fiercely, didn't see the rolling thick smoke rising, didn't see a figure rolling into the ruins in deathly silence under the shockwave of the explosion, didn't see those few Silver Phantoms falling apart...
When he opened his eyes again, his cheeks were already full of tear stains.
"Miss Huang..."
The Detonator fell to the ground with a thud. His whole body fell powerless onto his knees in the puddle, his head drooping low, like a drained walking corpse.
...
Drip, drop—— Drip, drop——
Blood color melted amidst the rainwater, slowly flowing along the street, ultimately pouring into that narrow drain.
Behind the drain, a pair of pure eyes witnessed everything that just happened... He was blankly stunned for a long time, as if scared.
"Child, why did you run up there?! Come down quickly!" A voice came from below.
He then woke up like from a dream, coming down step by step along the stairs, blankly returning among the crowd, still hugging that half-eaten Bread in his arms.
"It seemed like there was another explosion up there just now."
"Yeah, that shock just now was really loud... Could it be that something came over?"
"Don't know..."
"Wasn't this child lying up there just now? Child, did you see anything?"
"..."
The crowd in the underground Shelter, while using Bread to fill the hunger in their stomachs, cautiously communicated... Suddenly, a portion of the gazes gathered on the child's body.
The child seemed to not have recovered from the scene just now. He subconsciously hugged the Bread in his arms tightly, saying softly:
"I... I saw an older sister. She carried a gun, carried several really tall monsters, and turned into flames together."
The crowd froze in place.
At this time, no one noticed,
Outside the drain the child was lying on just now, the corner of a Great Crimson Theatrical Robe flashed past in the rain.
