Within a few short minutes, defusing the arsonist's bomb is absolutely a fool's dream.

The voice of the Ikeda Family Head on the phone became increasingly ferocious.

"Hmph, Xu, you have less than three minutes left now, which means this woman before you is about to be blown to pieces by me!"

"This is the gift my Ikeda family returns to you."

"You harm my son, I harm your woman!"

"Hahaha! Do you think I'm afraid of you? Do you think you're so powerful? Let me tell you!!!"

"Tokyo is the territory of my Ikeda family! You dare touch my precious! I will destroy your whole family!"

"Hehehe, aren't you a man of emotion? Now your woman is about to die in front of you, let's see, are you afraid of death..."

Rong Ikeda is now beyond saving, and this bad news has driven the Ikeda Family Head completely mad!

On the phone, he continuously yelled at Xu Fan.

The voice was quite irritating, Xu Fan scratched his ear and directly interrupted him.

"Have you said enough?"

"Hehehe, you're not dead, how can it be enough?"

Hearing Xu Fan's response, the Ikeda Family Head chuckled coldly.

Though mad, he hadn't forgotten one thing.

This man on the phone isn't dead yet.

If he doesn't kill him, life would never be peaceful again for him.

Though tense, the Ikeda Family Head wasn't worried.

He had a hunch that Xu Fan wouldn't abandon this woman.

At this moment, Xu Fan's voice came through the phone.

"Family Head Ikeda, we have an old saying in Huaxia, reciprocation of courtesy."

"I accept your gift."

Time left for himself was scarce, and Xu Fan said a couple of sentences to the Ikeda Family Head, then immediately hung up the phone.

The bomb buried in the rose now had less than a minute left before it exploded.

"Whew, alright, don't worry, let's continue now."

He then put aside what the Ikeda Family Head said and prepared to continue defusing the bomb.

"Don't..."

At this moment, Asao Mai holding the rose, retreated backwards.

Seeing this, Xu Fan couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"Just now... I heard everything he said."

At this moment, Asao Mai looked at Xu Fan with tears and said.

There weren't many people around, and everything the Ikeda Family Head said on the phone was entirely heard by Asao Mai.

Though she couldn't understand much of what he said, Asao Mai understood the general meaning.

If... if she still let Xu Fan help her, then she would definitely involve him, letting him accompany her in death...

This is a scene Asao Mai never wanted to see!

"Xu Fan, if there's a next life, I... I will definitely pursue you!"

Before death, everything didn't seem so terrifying.

Even these words hidden in the deepest part of her heart!

At this moment, expressing her true feelings to Xu Fan, Asao Mai had no regrets left!

She decided to end it herself!

"Wait!"

But before she started, suddenly Xu Fan stopped her.

"Actually, if you really want to pursue me, there's no need to wait for the next life."

"Huh?"

Xu Fan's words left Asao Mai dumbfounded.

What... what does he mean by this?

"This bomb, others really can't defuse it, but I really can."

Xu Fan said as he walked over to Asao Mai.

These words weren't lies to comfort Asao Mai.

The arsonist Lucius had vanished for years in the Underground World, for reasons known to few.

Xu Fan counted as one of them.

Or maybe it should be said that Lucius was unlucky to fall into a mercenary organization's hands.

Its name was White Crescent.

After Lucius's death, the bomb schematics and technology in his hands were completely deciphered by the Azure Dragon.

Among them was this bloody rose, which Lucius regarded as his masterpiece.

With Asao Mai gazing in bewilderment, Xu Fan embraced her waist and effortlessly began defusing this bomb.

That less than twenty seconds on the bomb, he completely ignored.

His confident demeanor conveyed to everyone that regarding this bomb, he had absolute certainty.

Beep!

At the fifth second of the bomb countdown, a buzzing sound rang out.

The bomb hidden inside the rose ceased to respond completely.

"This..."

Asao Mai was stunned...

She found it incredible.

The scene before her could only exist in fantasies, yet it happened before her eyes?

"Didn't he say you couldn't defuse this bomb?"

Blinking her big eyes in disbelief, Asao Mai curiously looked at Xu Fan.

"What kind of guy is he?"

Not intending to answer Asao Mai's question, Xu Fan smiled as he reached out and pulled the bomb from the roses.

With a casual throw, Xu Fan grabbed the roses and stuffed them into Asao Mai's hand.

"Alright, now it's time to show me your ticket to wooing me."

"Wh-what?"

Holding the bouquet of roses, Asao Mai was stupefied.

This... this...

Just how much time has passed, how has the scene suddenly changed?

I... I only said those things thinking I was about to die!

It's over... it's over...

Seeing Xu Fan's straight gaze, Asao Mai's face turned beet red, like an ostrich trying to bury her head in the sand!

"I! I didn't say anything just now!"

"You! You better not make fun of me! Annoying! Annoying!"

Finally, managing to lift her head, trying to explain to Xu Fan, she found Xu Fan already laughing at her shyness.

Asao Mai puffed her cheeks and started playfully arguing with Xu Fan!

Perhaps because of this dissipated killing intent, this blooming girl's smile appeared extraordinarily charming under the moonlight.

"Alright, stop!"

After a playful quarrel with Asao Mai, Xu Fan stopped her.

Asao Mai, understanding well now wasn't a time for jokes, gave Xu Fan a shy glare and then ceased.

Xu Fan took out his phone from his pocket and called Honda Tsubasa.

"Xu Fan, is everything okay on your end?"

Soon, the call connected.

Hearing Honda Tsubasa's inquiry, Xu Fan couldn't help but exhale a sigh of relief.

Seems like she hasn't made him worry.

"Yeah, I've settled things here, how's it on your side?"

"All threats have been cleared, but a few got away..."

"Hm, that's good."

He could tell a few escaped, which made Honda Tsubasa a bit frustrated, but for Xu Fan, as long as she was safe, that was enough.

Xu Fan nodded and said, "You come over to my place now, also inform Song Xiaozhu to bring people to meet me."

"Hehe, the Ikeda family sent such a big gift, we ought to return the favor."
