Chapter 739 Tequila: Genta, you should never eat eel rice again.
Over there, Genta, who was leaning on the elevator handrail, saw Tequila waving and shouting in his direction from below, and he became happy too.
"Uncle Long, I'm here......................."
He waved at Tequila, completely unaware of what Tequila was shouting over there.
Conan's lips twitched involuntarily as he looked at Genta's silly expression.
Then............................
His eyes widened immediately.
"Yuta, be careful of the pillars............."
"What?!"
Genta still hadn't realized what was about to happen to him. He was still leaning on the handrail, and turned his head to look at Conan.
Because of that one turn of his head, he didn't see the pillar supporting the elevator in front of him...
boom--
With a dull thud, Genta slammed into a pillar..........................
"what--"
He let out a scream, completely lost his balance, and fell face-first off the handrail...
The incident happened so suddenly that neither the children nor Professor Agasa had time to react...
Conan did realize what was happening, but he didn't expect Genta to be so dense, actually running headfirst into a pillar...
"Help, help me......................."
Genta's cries for help came from below the elevator handrail.
Everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Yuan Tai didn't fall completely; instead, relying on his survival instinct, he gripped the edge of the small platform next to the elevator handrail with both hands...
At this moment, the chubby boy's face was streaked with snot and tears, filled with a desperate desire to survive.
"Hiroshi, Professor, Conan, help me........................."
Genta kept calling out to his companions.
Without the slightest hesitation, Professor Agasa attempted to reach out and pull Genta back..........................
However, the elevator staff seemed completely unaware that something had happened—
The elevator didn't stop running; it kept moving forward...
This also meant that Professor Agasa could only watch helplessly as he drifted further and further away from Genta, without being able to do anything about it........................
Damn!
Conan cursed the staff member as an idiot in his heart.
He's currently in a child's body; even with Professor Agasa's gadgets, it would be difficult to save Genta...
Although he was thinking this, Conan's hands didn't slow down at all—
He unbuckled his belt and ran towards the back of the escalator on his short legs, bumping into many pedestrians who were holding onto the escalator...
"Make way, make way..."
Conan attempts to race against the elevator.
Some of the passersby behind also saw what was happening and quickly called out to the staff for help...
Curaçao, who had been following Professor Agasa and the children, was taken aback when she saw this scene.
Her mind raced through the calculations, and she quickly made a decision—
With a swift movement, she flipped over and, amidst gasps of surprise, moved from the inside of the elevator to the small platform outside the handrail.
Then, she continued moving towards Genta along the narrow, flat field, which was only about the width of a foot wide...
Below, when Tequila saw Genta crash into the pillar, she didn't care about anything else and immediately threw the ice cream she was holding aside.
Then, he quickly pushed and shoved his way through the crowd and ran towards where Yuan Tai and the others were...
It can be said that during the time Yuan Tai was in danger, everyone was trying their best to help him..........................
but..............................
Things were still a bit too late.........................
The elevator staff stopped the elevator, and passersby rushed to help. Curaçao was almost to Genta's side, Tequila was nearly there, and Conan threw his belt at Genta...
But......................
Genta simply couldn't be caught.
He was a seven-year-old, 120-pound chubby boy, and he had used every ounce of his strength to grip this uncomfortable platform for so long...
Just as Curaçao was about to grab him, Genta's hands went limp, and despair filled his eyes...
"what--"
"Yuta——"
Passersby and children around gasped in shock, unable to look directly at the scene.
Seeing this, Tequila, who was almost there, didn't hesitate at all. She flipped over and jumped off the elevator handrail as well...
With his strength, going down from here wouldn't be a problem at all. Even with Yuan Tai added to the mix, he would have ample opportunity to absorb the force...
But the problem is..............................
He might not be able to keep up with the speed at which Yuan Tai falls...
Tequila's actions surprised everyone around her.
His decision was already quite decisive, but he didn't expect that someone would be one step ahead of him—
That's Curaçao!
She had already prepared for the worst when she rolled over onto the platform next to the handrail.
On her way to Genta's side, she had carefully observed the surrounding 'terrain'...............................
Because this is a Ferris wheel, the base of the entire structure is not a vertical 90-degree cliff, but rather an arc shape.
Therefore, the instant Genta's arms went limp and he fell, Curaçao followed suit, leaping down as well............................
She knew that even if she caught Yuan Tai in mid-air, she could use the curved building to absorb the force and land safely...
The staff below, seeing Yuan Tai fall, all felt a wave of dizziness, thinking their careers were over......................
Unexpectedly, two other people came down with Genta.
They were about to angrily berate the two men, realizing their actions were too impulsive and might cost them their lives, when they saw...
Curaçao scooped up Genta in mid-air and pulled him into her arms.
Then, using her powerful core strength, she performed a 90-degree somersault in the air, quickly slamming her back into the curve of the building...
Then, she rolled several more times, dissipating all the force, and slowly fell from above, her back pressed against the curve of the building..........................
On the other side, seeing that someone had already caught Genta's tequila, she breathed a sigh of relief.
When he saw that the other person seemed to be Curaçao, a smile appeared on his face.
Thank goodness, with Curaçao's hug, Genta is alright. He knows this woman's strength best...
So, agave stopped rushing to go there.
He lightly touched the curved surface of the building with both hands, then quickly jogged down the building, switching from a descent to parkour, and sped down in a flash...
The staff below were all stunned by what they saw.
No, how come you all possess such extraordinary skills?!
One person saved a falling child from mid-air, and the other, seeing that everything was alright, immediately performed a parkour routine for everyone...
Are they all Superman?!
Meanwhile, Curaçao, carrying Genta, has landed safely.
She looked at the chubby little boy in her arms, and her face darkened.
That little brat is really naughty. If it weren't for me, he would be dead right here today...
Curaçao, adhering to the principle that "spare the rod and spoil the child," raised her hand and delivered a loving slap to Genta's face...
"Hey, Genta, are you alright? Are you alright...?"
While fighting, Curaçao asked Genta in a concerned tone.
Every time she said "Are you alright?", she would slap Yuan Tai.................
Genta, who had just completed a series of maneuvers in the air, felt dizzy and lightheaded.
Now, after being slapped by Curaçao, he's completely sober...
"No, it's alright now, big sister, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me..."
Genta mumbled these words indistinctly.
Agave, who had been jogging down the street, also looked quite unwell.
He came over and gave Yuan Tai a good scolding.
"What are you thinking, kid!"
"I told you to watch out, why did you still stick your head out!"
"Don't you know you can't stick your head out of an elevator?! What kind of upbringing did your parents give you? I'm going to have a word with them later..."
Tequila gave Genta a lecture.
But Yuan Tai could tell that Uncle Long's stern words contained deep concern...
Having survived such a near-death ordeal, tears streamed down his face.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Uncle Long, I know I was wrong, sob sob sob..."
"Damn,"
Upon hearing Genta's words, Tequila couldn't help but swear again.
However, seeing Genta crying so hard, half of his anger disappeared.
"Seriously, you're just too fat,"
Although Tequila had calmed down a bit, she still kept talking.
"If you were thinner, you might have been knocked back into the elevator by that pillar."
"You'd better lose weight! No more eel rice from now on, and your food intake will be halved every day..."
"Waaaaah, no!..."
Faced with his beloved eel rice, Genta finally couldn't bring himself to compromise and could only express his protest through tears.
