Gu Dai instructed Su Ci over the phone, "I have a way to defuse the bomb. Just follow my instructions."
Taken aback, Su Ci quickly followed Gu Dai's directions.
Step by step, Gu Dai guided Su Ci through the defusal process. As time passed, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She regretted designing the bomb so intricately back then, making its defusal so complicated. Coupled with Su Ci's inexperience with bombs, the difficulty of defusing it skyrocketed.
The countdown became increasingly pressing.
Gu Dai's voice shook with tension.
Finally, the minute ticking of the time bomb stopped, and its faint light dimmed.
The bomb was defused.
Su Ci, looking at the bomb's timer stopped at ten seconds, could no longer maintain his composure and collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, "Daidai, thank you."
Gu Dai also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's nothing."
