A tightly closed place like this made the cries and screams of the people sound like incoherent mutterings. Their mouths are tightly covered by duct tape, making their sobs sound like the sounds made by livestock when a butcher is about to slaughter them.
Akimasa closed his eyes. In his heart, he apologized to everyone he had ever known. He wasn't ready to die yet, but in this miserable state, all things didn't matter anymore.
Three seconds after he closed his eyes, nothing happened. Six seconds also still nothing happened. Ten seconds had passed, Akimasa felt his body still intact. Fifteen seconds, Akimasa finally opened his eyes. Nothing happened. No explosion. No bombs. Or maybe those crooks didn't connect the timer to the bomb on purpose.
People are still shaking. They seemed not sure that they were still alive. Several people then tried to move and drag the chairs that were tied with them. But they all failed because the criminals had also tied the chairs to the table in front of them.
Before Akimasa could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard a voice. The sound was like a hiss. Hearing this confusing sound, everyone was silent. It was like the sound of air escaping from a punctured car tire. Akimasa looked for the source of the voice.
The sound doesn't come from just one place. The hiss came from all over the room. The closest sound source to Akimasa was the package of the bomb that had not exploded earlier.
The package let out a hiss. Akimasa was flabbergasted. Now everything was clear.
