But Brian knew he was the one to blame for the way things were going.
If he hadn't left Linda alone in the bookstore and gone to find Bun, then she would have been kidnapped.
Time was slipping away. He had only 2 minutes left.
Charles Mu got a little anxious. He felt some part of his heart aching.
That's because he held Linda dear in his heart.
But at this point he felt helpless. If he forced his way to rescue her, then Vincent would detonate the bomb to blow her up.
If he just stood by and did nothing, then the bomb would still go off when time ran up...
He was caught between a rock and a hard place...
"Master Mu, you must have been feeling awful now. I can't say I am not enjoying this."
A faint sneer hanged on Vincent's lips. His narrow, dangerous and poisonous-snake-like eyes stared at Charles' chiseled and motionless face, and he relished at the prospect of frustrating Charles.
Paul gave a snort of contempt and said, "You are not worth half of the attentions we give you."
"Don't try to play tough, Master Mu. You only get two minutes left."
Vincent Zhou was almost insane, whose smile terrified people nearby.
The bomb strapped on Linda was real.
At first, Vincent intended to strap a fake one to strike fear into Charles. But after Linda had shot him with the tiny metal ball, he changed his mind. He swore he would kill this bitch, For she made him less of a man.
So he strapped a real one on her. In two minutes, she would be blown up.
But Charles wouldn't give up without a fight.
Eight sniper rifles in the dark were aiming at Vincent.
After observing the terrain, Charles had come up with the same idea as Brian. Some of his men were already hidden under the river.
Some other skillful shooters had walked towards the high ground of the harbor.
That's the only way to rescue her.
But they found someone was already there.
Bun beckoned them to go down. They all recognized Bun and followed her instruction.
The petite figure of Bun was easy to hide while this large gang of people would only attract attention and easily frustrated the plan.
"Tell Young Mater that Master Ho and I will definately get Lady Linda back. It's all my fault."
They returned and told Paul. Paul passed the news to Charles, who was relieved by the news that Bun and Brian were here.
Both Brian and Bun were excellent shooters in the force. What's more, Brian did well in disarming bombs. Since Bun was going to shot, Brian must be waiting under water. Linda's life depended on them.
Charles trusted Brian in his disarming skill. He believed Brian would finish the task in 30 seconds as the bomb didn't appear to be very complicated.
Bun looked at her watch. The countdown was going to an end.
Five, four, three, two, one.
Bun cloesed her eyes and aimed at the thick rope hanging Linda. With her eyelashes quivering, She took a deep breath and pulled the trigger.
Six bullets successfully cut the rope.
Before Linda could regain her consciousness, she began to fall and plunged into the river.
The icy river chilled her to the bone...
The chillness of the river swept all over her, but her hands and feets were all tied. She was drowning.
When she fell on the surface of the river, she felt a great pain.
Luckily it's only about 16 ft below from where she was hanged.
She was hurting all over, as if every muscle of her body was frozen...
Was the Reaper here? She haven't marry the man she loved, It's such a shame that she should drown in the river like this.
Linda slowly closed her eyes and held her breath...
Suddenly she heard a familiar voice and then she felt a strong arm holding her above the river. Being able to breathe again brought Linda back from the blink of death.
"Linda wake up! Don't fall asleep!"
It's Brian who was speaking.
Linda tried to open her eyes but she gave in to the exhausion. In the raging river, the water kept getting into her nose, making her feel really bad.
"Linda, do not fall asleep! Think about your Charles! He's waiting for you!"
"Hang in there! Please give me two minutes! Open your eyes! Linda! ! Open your eyes and I will be your servant when we are back home! !"
Brian was waiting in the water. As expected, Bun had done a great job and successfully cut the thick rope with 6 bullets.
Linda fell as soon as the ropes were cut, And it took Brian great efforts to lift her out of the raging river.
But Brian had no time to wake her up.
Because he had only 50 seconds left. According to his experience, the scope of the explosion fell within the radius of 16 ft.
Brian calculated the time and found he merely got 40 seconds to disarm the bomb and threw it away.
He knew he must took Linda out of the area of explosion. Otherwise both of them would be blown to pieces even if they were in water.
So he became ever more serious, with one hand holding Linda and the other disarming the bomb. He took every step carefully in case that he might accidentally detonate the bomb.
But the pity was that only one of his hands was free to move. The speed was obviously slower.
When he eventually removed the bomb, there were only 5 seconds left...
It's too late. It's almost impossible for him to take Linda out of the area of explosion.
