Super God: If I punch you, you will die

"……Fool……".

Is the promise truly impossible to keep? Tsunemori Akane's emotions are complex. How she wishes it were all just a nightmare, and that he would still be there when she woke up...

No, is it really her wish?

So, what does he really want?

free?

equality?

Or perhaps it's just simple revenge!

Lin Yan saw a photo, a real photo in a wooden frame, showing Ginoza as an innocent child, riding on Seiryu's shoulders, both of them with happy smiles.

Ginoza, I truly hope that Ginoza can successfully overcome this calamity. Up to this point, the Sibyl System, seemingly omnipotent, is actually powerless, whether it's against Shinjima Shogo or Lin Yan.

He weighed the gun in his hand.

After all, it was a token of Zheng Lu's goodwill, and for ordinary people, such a seemingly old-fashioned firearm was the best weapon.

Sturm Ruger's SP101.

This is a patterned revolver aimed at the self-defense and collector's markets. The metal parts are all engraved with beautiful patterns, giving it a refined and elegant appearance. The main color is black, but the hammer and trigger are silver, the engineering plastic grip is gray, and it features a wooden grip protector.

The grip guards have a textured surface with the company logo engraved on it. The silver hammer also has a textured surface to facilitate pressing it down by hand.

The gun is caliber .357 and can fire .0.357 Magnum and .38 Special rounds.

The gun is 183mm long overall, with a 57mm barrel, and weighs 746g unloaded. The revolver has a 5-round capacity. Besides this revolver, spare ammunition has also been thoughtfully prepared, as Zheng Lu is a mature, steady, and meticulous person.

With practiced movements, the gun chambered, the bullet ejected, and it was raised.

In other worlds, Lin Yan was no stranger to this gun. Although his abilities were not high enough to use such a low-end weapon, it was precisely because the weapon was low-end that he was able to master the practical skills in a short period of time.

everything's ready.

Leaving Zheng Lu's residence, his destination was the underground parking lot, a helmet in his hand. At this moment, he was a hunter, searching for prey.

In his field of vision was a dilapidated vehicle.

Large touring wagon.

The station wagon is a derivative of the sedan, developed in response to the growing trend of people embracing nature and traveling. Compared to SUVs and MPVs, station wagons are cheaper and have lower running costs, while offering greater maneuverability and easier driving and parking. As the living standards of Chinese consumers improve, taking family trips in station wagons during holidays has become a new trend among urban car owners. Station wagons are not only capable of long-distance travel but also offer ample space to carry sufficient travel gear.

As the trunk of the large touring wagon opened, the equipment was slowly unloaded, and Lin Yan revealed an enigmatic smile.

"I didn't expect you to be so well prepared, really..."

It was an old-fashioned motorcycle, judging from its design, it was probably from a previous era. However, you could tell that its performance was still quite good, and its speed was probably not bad. It was a decent means of transportation, especially suitable for riding on relatively rugged terrain.

……

"...It's reached the edge."

"……what?"

Inside the consultation room, Ginoza's voice was somewhat evasive and aggressive; he didn't quite like the content of the current conversation.

"The color has become cloudy and red, indicating an extremely dangerous state of stress. Serious treatment must begin immediately."

"...What's the crime rate like? That's the key thing, isn't it?" The person talking to Ginoza was the counselor in the consultation room.

His answer was evasive.

"Doctor." Ginoza's voice was somewhat hurried; he really didn't have much patience left.

time flies.

Every second that passes will make the situation worse.

Ultimately, it was beyond repair.

Even the most composed person like Ginoza couldn't remain completely calm at this moment; after all, concern can cloud judgment.

He is not a god, but an ordinary person.

"...A crime coefficient of 82 is quite a shock to the police station's staff, but there's no need to be pessimistic. If treatment begins now, it's entirely possible to bring the number down to below 50."

"Now, let's begin......" Ginoza's tone was tinged with disappointment and helplessness. The road ahead was uncertain, and they were already on the verge of danger. "Specifically, what will the treatment involve?"

"In short, take a break first. If you don't want to rest no matter what, the fact that your hue diagnosis is in a dangerous zone will become a big problem. Although the crime coefficient is also changing, it means that there is a risk of sudden deterioration. If you continue to ignore your hue, the worst-case scenario may be that you are identified as a potential criminal."

"Hahahahaha...hahahaha...hahahaha..."

Ginoza's smile is quite enigmatic; what exactly is he thinking?

Perhaps no one can understand Ginoza's feelings.

His life is extraordinary.

They have a special status and identity.

"...?" The counselor's face was full of surprise. He didn't know why Ginoza would react so strongly.

“I can’t bring myself to say it… My partner faced the same situation before,” Ginoza thought of his best friend’s past experience, which was exactly the same as his own. Kogami Shinya’s past experience and how he handled it were already a fait accompli.

Will Ginoza repeat the same mistake?

He is not willing to give in! !

Having a father who is a potential criminal is already a stain on his life, and this incident only makes things worse. Is there any hope left for him?

"What happened to that partner later?"

"Later we were no longer partners. Now he's my subordinate, having fallen from the same position." From inspector to enforcer, one is like heaven and the other like hell; one a law enforcer, the other a prisoner. These are completely opposite lives.

As for now, he's no longer a subordinate.

"How ironic, trying to protect myself to avoid ending up like that, and yet this is still the case..."

"I'll arrange centralized treatment immediately, and I'll make contact with the workplace..."

"Please wait a moment, it's not possible yet."

"Chief Inspector Ginoza..."

"It's only just reached the critical point, it's not over the limit yet, watch me get through it."

"From our perspective, we won't take responsibility for the outcome." With that, Ginoza stood up, picked up his clothes, and put them on.

He didn't want to waste another second here.

"...My current colleague is a newcomer who just joined this year. As soon as I saw her, I felt hopeful and thought my mindset would definitely improve."

Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture.

The building in front of me is the home of former university professor Joji Saiga, a psychology professor with professional experience. He resigned many years ago and is addressed as "teacher" by Shinya Kogami. He possesses an extremely intelligent mind, able to judge the outcome based on mere details, and is proficient in fields such as computers and books.

Kogami Shinya and Tsunemori Akane visited his villa. Upon their arrival, Kogami Shinya discerned some of Tsunemori Akane's personal information through her micro-expressions and provided Shinya and Akane with some guidance to help them better investigate the truth about Makishima Shogo.

He will assist Shinya in investigating Makishima Shogo's next plan, and learns from his online posts that he has done Shinya a great favor. He also asserts that helping Shinya will surely bring retribution upon himself for his reclusive life.

Press the button.

A man's voice came through the walkie-talkie; it was a familiar voice from my memory.

The door opened.

"...I've been watching the news...After such an incident, you even ditched the surveillance officer and ran here. It seems something serious has happened...Anyway, come in first. Although there's no one else around, it's always better to be safe than sorry."

"Feel sorry……"

"Hey...you even brought a gun?"

"...Did you notice?"

“An old-fashioned revolver…right?” It was former university professor Saiga Joji who led him into the room, saying as they walked down the corridor.

The two walked side by side.

"Even though you're always like this, why don't you occasionally reveal some inside information? It's practically a superpower."

“Observational skills and rational thinking, Kogami-kun… Weapons that can’t be hidden in the police station, weapons that can be preserved for a long time in an abandoned area… If it were me, I would choose a revolver that is less prone to malfunctions rather than a semi-automatic one.”

Simultaneously.

Tsunemori Akane was on the verge of a breakdown; she truly loathed her current powerlessness.

She looked exhausted.

We entered that room!

—Will crying help? Things will still only get worse. She should control her emotions and focus on the present.

Seiryu and Rokugozuka are very worried about Tsunemori Akane.

This girl has really had a tough time, and Lin Yan was Chang Shouzhu's savior. Their relationship was very deep, and their bond was very strong.

The impact of Tsunemori Akane on her was evident in her tired and bloodshot eyes.

This was a devastating blow to my life.

Ginoza's expression was solemn.

"Almost everyone's been contacted... Kogami has escaped, without a doubt, purely as a criminal, he's fled. That guy'll probably go after Shinjima Shogo, we need to go after him too. An escaped executor... there's no need to capture him alive, quickly dispose of him with the Dominator's power."

"Ah--"

Tsunemori Akane's tone was full of sarcasm and dissatisfaction.

"Shogo Shinjima wants to be captured alive, but Kogami wants to be punished immediately? That's really discriminatory."

"……Yes."

Ginoza showed no displeasure at Tsunemori Akane's questioning; instead, she calmly and directly answered it.

"Can we stop thinking about Kogami for now? As long as we catch up with Shinjima Shogo, we'll be able to reunite with Kogami. We'll deal with what to do then."

“Although Shogo Shinjima’s face has been exposed, due to the aftermath of the last riot, a large part of the surveillance camera system is still being adjusted,” Ginoza said. “It will take another five days to fully recover… During this period, we cannot expect the assistance of facial scanning.”

Liuhezuka said, "They probably also know there are still five days left. What if they keep their tracks hidden during this time and find an opportunity to escape?"

“No, Makishima Shogo will do something,” Tsunemori Akane said, while the others stared in disbelief.

"...I know a little about that man. He's not the kind of person who would give up if forced into a corner. In the very end, he will test this world. Although he acts like a god and a demon, he knows very well that he is neither a god nor a demon. He will reveal the true nature of humanity in the society protected by the system. That's why he called Kogami to provoke him."

"However... since the last riot, important locations have been equipped with armed Dorons from the border guards... electromagnetic pulses have been neutralized, and each machine is operated by one person, making it impossible to hack. Even Shinjima Shogo cannot take action."

Rokugozuka remained very calm.

The tone is flat.

"Even so, there must be something fishy going on. He called Kogami in to bring the incident to a climax."

“But… in the capital under martial law, it’s not so simple to inflict fatal damage on the entire society with just one person,” Zheng Lu said.

“Shogo Shinjima has already done the impossible. If he uses his last bit of strength and goes all out, nothing is surprising.”

"...My current colleague is a newcomer who just joined this year. Seeing her gave me hope, and I felt my mindset would definitely improve. Continuing to discuss the investigation strategy is pointless, so let's all take a break to organize our thoughts," Ginoza said.

“…Excuse me.” Tsunemori Akane was the first to walk out of the analysis room. She needed to calm down; the long-term suppression had led to this sudden outburst.

"……What's wrong?"

Tang Zhidu remained the same as always.

Neither praising nor criticizing.

Tsunemori Akane was grateful for such a neutral stance, since it was already good enough that he didn't make any comments that were detrimental to Lin Yan.

Moreover, Tang Zhidu chased after them, his eyes revealing his concern for Tsunemori.

There's bound to be a difference in the maturity and sophistication of a mature and composed older sister versus a naive young girl just starting out in her career.

When faced with the same situation, Tang Zhidu could handle it with ease.
