Ran Mouri walked over at the right moment and placed the already opened suitcase in front of her elderly father.
The time bomb was set to detonate at 3:10, and now there are only three minutes left until the explosion.
The girl, who knew nothing about bomb disposal, naturally thought of her father, who had once been a criminal police officer.
"Huh? I'm defusing a bomb?"
The sudden appearance of the time bomb startled Kogoro Mouri.
Although he had been a criminal police officer in his youth and was a good shot, he was a complete novice when it came to bomb disposal.
Not to mention the time bomb in front of them, which looked very sophisticated.
Defusing a bomb? More like it's all over!
But having already said it in front of so many people, I can't just say I'm not good enough.
Fortunately, after so many years of hard work, he is quite adept at navigating social situations.
"Ahem, everyone listen to me, let's get out of this carriage first. After all, I'm not 100% sure I can defuse the bomb!"
Kogoro Mouri explained the pros and cons in a tactful way, finally managing to scare the onlookers away.
The beautiful woman who received this surprise gift has been detained by the train police and will be handed over to the police after the train arrives at the station.
Meanwhile, the train crew had decided that if all else failed, they would apply the emergency brakes at the last minute and drop the bomb.
Now we're just letting this "professional" detective give it a try.
"Dad, do you know how to defuse this kind of bomb?"
Ran Mouri held the little boy, feeling a little uneasy, her face flushed.
Of course, anyone would be nervous when faced with a powerful bomb.
But the girl's inner turmoil stemmed not only from fear, but also from the unexpected incident that had just occurred.
Having spent so much time with Luo Tian, the face wash they just had was definitely the most intimate contact they'd ever had. Even when they slept together at night, their chests were only touching their backs.
Therefore, she was very shy, and it was precisely because she was so shy that she even forgot to let go of the little boy, trying to forget what had just happened.
But the more she tried, the clearer that scene became in her mind.
In his excitement, he unconsciously increased the pressure in his hands, allowing Luo Tian to enjoy a back massage after the facial massage.
Soft and comfortable, he certainly wouldn't mind falling asleep like this if there wasn't a bomb in front of him.
"Uncle, are you sure you can do it?"
Hearing his daughter and the little boy's questions, and glancing at their current state, Kogoro Mouri inexplicably remembered the dream he had just had.
"I……"
Although he wanted to stubbornly insist that he could do it, he dared not risk the lives of everyone on the bus.
"This bomb is too complicated; I can't defuse it."
He shook his head, put down the box in his hand, and stopped pretending.
"We still have some time, let's throw this thing out!"
Emergency braking might cause some damage, and the bomb might explode elsewhere, but it's still better than it exploding directly on the train.
"Then I'll go tell the flight attendant to stop the train!"
Because the train was going too fast, the windows couldn't be opened. Ran Mouri wanted to ask someone to stop the train, but she forgot that she was holding a little boy in her arms.
When I got up, I lost my balance and fell forward. I quickly stretched out a hand to support myself.
But this hand accidentally pressed on the bomb inside the box and pulled off a metal wire.
"Oops!"
Kogoro Mouri looked terrified and instinctively grabbed the box, pressing it under his body.
His thought was to minimize the power of the explosion so that his daughter and the little boy could survive.
Ran Mouri hugged Luo Tian tightly, turning her back to the box, her blue-purple eyes filled with regret.
How could I be so careless!
"I'm sorry... Xiao Luo... I'm so sorry..."
Muttering to herself, the girl quietly awaited the explosion.
But as time passed, the expected flames and heat waves did not appear. The carriage was quiet, and the train continued to move smoothly.
"Um, Sister Xiaolan, could you loosen your grip a little? I can't breathe."
Luo Tian struggled in the girl's arms.
He didn't expect to receive two rounds of facial cleansing services in such a short period of time.
He never expected that he would almost suffocate during this second wave of service.
"Ah! Are you alright?"
Ran Mouri quickly let go of his hand, looking at the little boy whose face was flushed red from holding his breath, her face full of apology.
"Phew—I'm still alive—"
Taking a deep breath, Luo Tian realized for the first time how precious oxygen was.
He naturally wouldn't blame the girl, since given the situation just now, her actions were understandable.
Of course, he wasn't afraid at all, since the Death Aura hadn't reacted, which meant that nothing would happen.
"How is this going?"
Kogoro Mouri also realized what was happening, and the three of them examined the bomb in the box together.
Apparently because the metal wire had broken, the countdown on the bomb stopped.
The danger has been averted!
"Sister Xiaolan! You're so lucky!"
Luo Tian was also a little surprised. He only knew that the girl had the attribute of being a lucky person, but he didn't expect that she could use it to defuse bombs.
"Yes, Xiaolan, we're counting on you this time!"
The old father was extremely gratified, at least he could give some explanation to the passengers earlier and not lose too much face.
The praise from both the big and small figures left Ran Mouri a little bewildered.
Has my luck stat really increased?!
The first thing that came to her mind was the luck points she had accumulated from completing tasks over the past few days.
As expected of the "Strongest Lucky Player System"!
[Ding! Mission complete, reward being distributed—Since the lucky star was unharmed, the reward is doubled!]
[Rewards: Luck value increases slightly, physical fitness increases moderately, and the Mouri Detective Agency receives one publicity opportunity!]
Chapter 34 The Elephants Are Dancing, the Autobots Are Attacking
When the train stopped at the next station, a large group of people had been waiting there for a long time.
Among them were police officers who received the emergency call and media reporters who had gotten wind of the situation.
With the original waiting passengers and station staff, the huge platform was packed to the brim.
Fortunately, the police and station security personnel maintained order, preventing any accidents from happening.
As the "bomb disposal hero" in the eyes of the passengers, Kogoro Mouri was naturally besieged by numerous microphones and cameras.
"Mr. Mori, why is there a bomb on the train?"
"It's said you passed out before the bomb was defused. Was it the work of terrorists?"
"How did you stay calm in the face of such a dangerous bomb, and how did you defuse it?"
"Detective Mori, that female prisoner gave you a flirty wink as she left. Why did that?"
He only had time to introduce himself before being overwhelmed by a barrage of questions from the media.
How would he know the specific details? Was he supposed to say that his daughter knocked him unconscious?!
Are you kidding me! Doesn't he have any pride?!
Fortunately, Kogoro Mouri has always been good at making up stories.
"Honestly, Dad's bragging again!"
Ran Mouri felt utterly helpless watching her father start rambling on and on in front of a group of media.
If this is the publicity opportunity that the system reward is supposed to provide, then it's a complete waste!
"Xiao Luo, when do you think Dad will be able to change his personality?"
Holding the little boy on her lap, the girl muttered to herself with a worried expression.
"There will be a chance!" Maybe in the next life!
Luo Tian silently added half a sentence.
As the saying goes, it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature, let alone someone like Kogoro Mouri.
Enjoying his second massage chair session of the day, Luo Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes, and quietly fell asleep.
Seeing him like this, Ran Mouri just smiled slightly, adjusted her sitting posture, and made the little boy more comfortable.
Having already experienced that kind of contact, this little bit of contact is nothing.
After all, he's still a child... right?
A complex look flickered in her eyes as she thought silently.
……
As it turned out, the girl's worries were unnecessary.
Perhaps her "Strongest Lucky System" is indeed more powerful than Luo Tian's "Dog System," or perhaps she is simply lucky.
In short, the interview at the train station was not a publicity opportunity rewarded by the system.
Two days after returning home from the wedding banquet, I received an invitation call.
"Hello, this is the Maori Affairs Detective Agency."
Ran Mouri, who was on holiday, answered the phone.
"Hello, this is Nichiri TV. I'm the host, Takashi Matsuo. Is Mr. Mori here?"
"Nikko TV?"
The girl was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized that this was her system reward.
We need to seize the opportunity!
"Please wait a moment, I'll go get my dad right away."
Tap tap tap—After hanging up the phone, she skipped excitedly and knocked on her father's door.
"Dad, someone from Nichiri TV is looking for you."
However, Kogoro Mouri was fast asleep in his room, and a faint smell of alcohol could be smelled through the crack in the door.
Perhaps because he indulged himself at the wedding banquet, the old father became increasingly unable to bear it after returning home and started secretly drinking again.
This time, at least they held out for half a month, and Ran Mouri wasn't planning to say anything, but now...!
"Sister Xiaolan, what's wrong?"
Luo Tian walked out, still half asleep.
The knocking didn't wake my father, but it did wake him up.
"It's okay, Xiao Luo, you can go back to sleep. I...I..."
Ran Mouri sighed helplessly, turned her head and was about to comfort the little boy when she suddenly got stuck.
Moo—she seemed to see an elephant swaggering in front of her, swinging its long trunk triumphantly; the vivid image far surpassed the dream she had originally had.
"Go and put your clothes on first!"
After saying that, the girl returned to the phone in the living room, both to avoid such an awkward situation and to notify the TV station.
