My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Everyone couldn't help but think in that direction, and then the instinct of fear instantly filled their bodies. They retreated desperately, and many people who were afraid of heights were so frightened that their legs went weak and they fell to the ground. Their palms were sweating, and their teeth and legs were trembling uncontrollably. They retreated frantically as if being chased by a ghost.

It wasn't until everyone had retreated a considerable distance, far away from the man-eating rooftop edge, that they stopped.

Some even retreated all the way to the stairwell, pressing themselves tightly against the wall, only able to calm their fear by feeling the solid concrete wall behind them.

The stairwell was locked, and everyone was unable to get out for the time being, so they could only wait for rescue in a state of shock.

As everyone recalled their actions, a wave of fear and lingering unease washed over them.

His mind was still foggy, and he was still shaken by the memory; his expression was one of lingering fear.

They did not lose their consciousness.

Of course, they were aware of what they had just done: they were like they were possessed, actually believing that suicide was a very happy and joyful thing! And they even enjoyed wanting to jump off this 500-meter-high roof!

crazy!

I've gone mad!

Kouta was completely inconspicuous among the 13 people, and at this moment he felt a wave of fear.

"Just a little bit more, and I'll jump!"

"Why do I feel like jumping from here would allow me to be with Hui forever?!"

Kouta hadn't lost his ability to think for himself; he was still conscious. But in his mind, Kouta strangely believed that jumping from here would give him the joy of being with Kei forever.

This was something Kouta couldn't refuse.

Chapter 148 Breaking the situation

"Hui, that's right, Hui!"

Thinking of Hui, Kōta took out his phone to make a call.

However, after unlocking.

The first thing that popped up on the screen was over a hundred missed calls, all from... Hui.

Kouta stared at the phone screen, remained silent for a long time, then a smile flashed across his face before he dialed back.

"Beep—beep—beep—· ...

"Huh? What's going on?"

Kouta, unwilling to give up, dialed again.

"Beep—beep—…sorry, the phone you took is…"

The result remained the same.

Kouta had a bad feeling and tried calling more than ten times, but still couldn't get through.

"Hui wouldn't ignore my calls, could something have happened to her? No, no, I have to go find her!"

As he spoke, Kouta prepared to leave the 500-meter-high rooftop garden, filled with vibrant flowers and lush greenery.

At that moment, the police officers below finally arrived on the roof, broke the lock, quickly sealed off the roof edge, and then surrounded the 13 people.

Then a large group of medical staff in white coats and a person dressed as a police inspector emerged from the stairwell.

"Everyone, please calm down and don't do anything rash! Think of your family and friends, and don't give up on your life so easily!"

Superintendent Ryo Kamii tried to persuade the 13 “suicide attempt victims”.

He was really unlucky. He was just an ordinary inspector in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. He had no hope of being promoted because the position in the Metropolitan Police Department was one-off, and there were no extra positions for him.

However, after the establishment of the new domain, he finally managed to obtain the position of police chief of the entire domain by virtue of his family connections and his own abilities. His official rank was also promoted to superintendent, and he truly entered the upper leadership of the Japanese police system.

As a result, before I could even settle in, this happened.

Putting aside the special natural phenomenon mentioned earlier, that was a global event and had nothing to do with him.

However, just now, under the watchful eyes of all of Japan, in the new territory of Japan, within the jurisdiction under its own control, 60 people committed suicide by jumping off a building in public. This is a failure of its own governance!

When Kamii Ryo saw the video, he collapsed to the ground.

He knew he was finished!

He was terribly screwed over by Zhai Kaihua!

The responsibility for the public suicides of 60 citizens, while primarily attributed to Zhai Kaihua, cannot be escaped from his own position.

If Zhai Kaihua was able to find 60 suicides in the area you govern, then how hopeless must your new territory be! Could this be due to your favoritism and abuse of power? Moreover, since these things have already happened, the highest-ranking police officer in this area hasn't heard a thing. Isn't that incompetence?

He couldn't even imagine his bleak future.

However, fate was on his side. A strange natural phenomenon occurred, and he thought the sky was about to collapse and all of humanity was doomed. But he woke up three seconds later and everything was normal.

What excited him even more was that 13 people on TV did not jump.

Although he didn't know why they didn't jump, it gave him a glimmer of hope: as long as he could successfully "save" the remaining 13 suicide victims, his good deeds would cancel out his bad deeds, and if he managed things well, he would even be credited. So he rushed over to direct the scene.

And the situation at the scene was much better than he had expected. He had thought these suicide victims were troublemakers and had prepared in advance to persuade them, but it turned out that these people didn't want to die. Good thing they didn't want to die! It saved him time and trouble!

At this moment, police officers and medical personnel approached Kouta and his group, intending to take them to the hospital for psychological treatment.

"Wait! I'm fine, and I never thought about committing suicide. I have an urgent matter to attend to and need to leave immediately." Kouta struggled to break free from the restraints on his hands by the two police officers.

There was also a medical worker supervising nearby.

"The patient's condition is unstable, and he seems to be attempting suicide. He needs to be sedated." The medical staff saw Kouta struggling and, thinking he was still trying to commit suicide, immediately took out a sedative.

"You?!" Kouta stared in disbelief at the medical staff member's assessment in front of him.

"I'm really fine now, and I didn't intend to commit suicide. Or, you could send someone to follow me; I need to find someone important."

However, the police officers and medical staff simply did not believe it.

Of course.

You should know that in their eyes, these 13 people present were all crazy people who came together to jump off the 500-meter-high roof of the Xinyu Hall to commit suicide.

For a group of 'patients' who are not even afraid of death, you can't be too careful.

So the two officers worked together, using their hands to restrain Kouta's limbs while preparing to take out handcuffs.

"You, let me go, let me go, I have important business to attend to!"

"Sir, you need to calm down and receive proper psychological treatment."

Meanwhile, the medical staff, having prepared syringes filled with sedatives, began approaching Kouta...

"You!" Seeing that his struggles were futile and there was still no news of Hui, Kouta, in desperation, glanced at the New Nanbu M60 Sakura revolver in the officer's waist bag.

With a gritted tooth, he first took a half step back, then bent down and charged towards the relatively thin police officer on his left, the whole action completed in one smooth motion.

The officer on the left was knocked down and fell to the ground.

"Not allowed to move!"

Kouta raised his New Southern M60 Sakura revolver and threatened the police officers who were approaching him.

It turns out that during that brief physical contact, Kouta took the opportunity to snatch the officer's sidearm from the officer on the left.

The atmosphere on the scene immediately became tense.

The police officers and medical personnel at the scene immediately dared not move, after all, they knew that they were facing a suicide attempter who dared to jump from a 500-meter-high building.

If they're not even afraid of death, why would they be afraid of killing a few people before they die?

Those who are reckless are not to be trifled with.

Compared to Kouta's fierce resistance, the other 12 'suicide attempt victims' were very cooperative, even eager to receive psychological treatment. After all, the scenes that had just happened still made their scalps tingle and filled them with terror. Half of them even made up their minds never to go up to the rooftop again in their lives.

Now that Kouta has made such a fuss, they don't dare to move. After all, if a high school student is waving a gun around and they move, the other person might shoot them. How wrong would that be?

Superintendent Kamii Ryo was completely bewildered by the scene.

There are troublemakers everywhere.

"Young man, calm down, put the gun down. Guns are dangerous. We mean no harm, we just want to help you. After all, suicide won't solve anything!"

With a kind expression, Kamikawa Ryo did his best to calm Kouta's agitated emotions.

As for things like the gun accidentally going off and you accidentally killing someone and becoming a murderer, he didn't say anything.

After all, they're not even afraid of death! Threatening them is just asking for trouble.

"I'm calm, I didn't want to commit suicide, I just want to leave here!"

"Okay! Okay! We know you didn't want to commit suicide, we know. Look, this stalemate isn't going to work. How about this, you put down the gun first, and then I'll send someone to take you away."

Of course, Kamikawa Ryo didn't really want the other person to leave. In Kamikawa Ryo's eyes, Kouta was the kind of extreme, repetitive suicide victim who was now making excuses to leave just to find a quiet high-rise building to jump again.

Therefore, Kamii Ryo should first calm Kouta down. Once Kouta's weapons are disarmed, he will send him to the hospital to receive proper psychological treatment.

For a moment, everyone stared nervously at Kouta, hoping he wouldn't react too aggressively.

However, they misjudged one thing: if Kouta really was just a first-year high school student, he might have been fooled by Kamikawa Ryo.

However, Kouta, whose mental age is 30, couldn't see through his true intentions.

At this point, he was also looking for an opportunity to break the deadlock.

Forcing a breakthrough won't work; taking down an entire police force with a six-shot revolver is something only movies dare to portray.

Furthermore, the area beneath this building is definitely surrounded, so even if one leaves the rooftop, it would be impossible to sneak out.

At this moment, only...

Surrender!

Chapter 149 Resurrection

However, it is not an unconditional surrender, but a conditional surrender!

"Get out of the way! Back off!" Kouta raised his gun and forced the police officers on the edge of the roof garden to back off, revealing the edge that had no fences or embankments. He then approached the edge step by step until he was less than half a meter away from it before stopping.
