Unfortunately that night, there is no Isagani to defuse the lamp bomb... 

I decided to have Philippines Governor General
Antonio Moltó (April 25, 1888-June 4, 1888) to be Simoun (aka Kan-Laon) victim since there isn't much info about him and especially since he held the office after Governor General Emilio Terrero y Perinat

If anybody wondering why Simoun (aka Kan-Laon) cut short his hair in 1888, please look it up on Precolonial Visayas symbolism (importance) of hair cut. Unfortunately I cannot spoil it here due to future 
story line spoilers.

Many thanks to :iconmuchiepotatoes: :iconaquariussincebirth: for translations in Ilonggo-Hiligaynon. Much appreciate your kind assistance :D

Jose Rizal's El-Fili : Simoun Lamp Bomb


In "El Filibusterismo" (Chapters 34-35), Simoun brought along a lamp in the wedding reception of Juanito Pelaez and Paulita Gomez. It is his gift to the newly weds and it has an explosive liquid compound known as "Nitroglycerin" in it. The reception takes place at the former home of the late Captain Tiago, which was filled with other explosives planted by Simoun. According to Simoun, the lamp will stay lighted for only 20 minutes before it flickers; if someone attempts to turn the wick, it will explode and kill everyone inside the house-mostly the important members of civil society and the Church hierarchy.  The explosion will be the signal to start a revolt in Manila.
