When she heard the answers to the multiple-choice questions, Miyano Akemi guessed that Fujiwara Yu would not choose her, otherwise he would not look at her like that.

That look seemed to speak, as if it was apologizing to me.

There's actually nothing to be sorry about. Although it's not common to exchange a life for another, in some cases, you have to make a choice... otherwise no one can be saved.

Instead of saving himself who is imprisoned by the organization, it is better to choose a young policeman with a bright future who can help more people. Anyone would probably choose this more "cost-effective" option.

"...I choose Komatsu Shouya."

Even though I was mentally prepared, I still felt sad when I heard this.

When Miyano Akemi met that gaze again, she read more emotions in his eyes. He didn't seem to be apologizing to her. What did his relaxed brows mean? Did he have a backup plan?

In the face of uncertainty, she still chose to believe.

After all, he was the one she loved. Besides, her life was no longer under her control.

All she could do now was trust.

After the answer to the multiple-choice question appeared, Yamada Kimike showed an expression of disbelief. He did not expect Fujiwara Yu to make such a choice. Shouldn't a normal person save someone who is more important to him without hesitation?

Why? Why is it different from what I expected? Why doesn't he always let me get what I want?

"Are you sure? I can give you a chance to undo your move."

Yamada Gongkei stared at Fujiwara Yu, trying to see more grief from the changes in his expression, but there was no extra expression on that unchanging face, only ridiculous determination.

It seems like I asked a stupid question. This guy will never take back his move.

"I'm sure."

Ah... you see, it is indeed like that.

Yamada Gongkei twisted his neck, raised his right hand holding the chain, and spoke in a frenzied tone:

"Okay, your choice is fulfilled. Then take one last good look at her... Oh, what a pity, such a beautiful face is about to become a bloody mess."

As the iron chain pulled, the simple device started to work. Miyano Akemi, who was standing on the rooftop with her hands and feet tied, could not move. She could only watch the iron plates under her feet being pulled away, and she fell into a sense of weightlessness.

At the same time, Fujiwara Yu, who had already quietly moved to the edge of the rooftop, rushed towards Miyano Akemi at the fastest speed. The moment he grabbed the rope on her body, he used his abdominal strength to twist his body and pushed her towards Matsuda Jinpei who was running towards him.

"Matsuda, the rest is up to you!"

"Fujiwara!

Jinpei Matsuda didn't expect that Fujiwara Yu had such a plan. He took out the dagger he picked up from the criminals and untied the people who restrained Miyano Akemi. At the same time, he raised his pistol and aimed at Yamada Kimie who was standing there.

With his eyebrows raised in anger, Matsuda Jinpei gritted his teeth and glared at the culprit in front of him. If it weren't for this bastard, Fujiwara would not have made such a choice... Damn guy!

"Yamada Gongkei, put your hands up!"

Yamada Gongkei looked towards the edge of the rooftop in a daze. He didn't expect the ending of the game to be like this. Fujiwara Yu did not choose option b, but chose the non-existent option c.

Why? Isn't your own life the most important thing?

Why make this choice, it makes the game not interesting at all.

"Yamada Gongkei, if you don't put your hands up, I'm going to shoot!"

After hearing Matsuda Jinpei's second reminder, Yamada Gongkei didn't raise his hands. Instead, he picked up the remote control. He smiled and pressed his thumb on the red button, sneering:

"Raise your hands? Have you forgotten that I planted a bomb here, and I haven't defused it yet..."

Bang!

What interrupted Yamada Gongkei's words was the sound of a gunshot caused by Matsuda Jinpei pulling the trigger.

The bullet landed accurately on Yamada Kimi's left shoulder. The pain from the penetrating wound made it impossible for him to hold the remote control tightly in his hand. He rushed to the remote control that fell to the ground and pressed the only red button on it, but found that the picture he expected did not appear.

What happened? Why didn't the bomb go off?

Ta-da, ta-da, ta-da.

As footsteps sounded, Akihara Kenji, still wearing his explosion-proof suit, took off his riot helmet with the help of Matsuda Jinpei. He smiled at Yamada Gongkei, who was lying on the ground, and said with a hint of sarcasm:

"Are you wondering why the bomb didn't go off? Of course it's been defused. Mr. Yamada, you really look down on me. After all, I'm the captain of the second team, and like Xiao Zhenping, I'm the ace of the explosive ordnance disposal team."

"you……"

Yamada Kimikei really wanted to ask them how they got in, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that he had been paying attention to the movements of Fujiwara Yu and Matsuda Jinpei. He was too confident in his plan and did not check other surveillance footage all the time.

He bit his lower lip hard. No, he still had a chance of winning. At least he had saved two lives, right?

Yamada Kimike turned his head to look at the transparent glass box beside him. If he wanted to rescue Komatsu Sho, he could only rely on the key on him. If he threw it out quietly now, he could let them watch their colleague drown.

He fished out the key from his pocket and threw it aside. Seeing the key disappear into the night, he laughed maniacally, like a psychopath who had just been released from Qingshan Mental Hospital:

“Hahahahahahahaha, I won… I won! Hahahahahaha!

Matsuda Jinpei unceremoniously kicked Yamada Gongkei on the shoulder where he had been shot, grabbed his collar and pressed him against the glass of the transparent glass box, saying angrily:

"Idiot, take a good look to see if the water level inside has increased."

Yamada Gongkei shuddered upon hearing this. He noticed that the water level, which had stopped at his chest, hadn't continued to rise. He pushed away Matsuda Jinpei, who was holding him back, and slammed the glass while shouting:

"How is this possible? How is this possible? What on earth did you bastards do?!"

"Of course it's destroyed from the root, don't you think? Squad Leader Yin Da?" Matsuda Jinpei smiled and looked at Yin Dahang who walked out from behind the water tank. This was one of the parts of the plan they were discussing.

Yin Dahang had a safety rope tied around his waist. He climbed all the way to the rooftop from the window on the 20th floor, so that he could quietly get behind the water tank and destroy it without being noticed by Yamada Gongkei.

As for the moment of destruction, it was naturally when Matsuda Jinpei fired his shot, rapidly firing a silenced pistol. At that time, Yamada Kimi was busy pressing the detonator of the remote-controlled bomb and didn't notice anything happening on his side.

Yamada Gongkei's expression turned extremely ugly. He vaguely sensed something was wrong. Why didn't their expressions look sad at all? Could it be that...

"Matsuda, your acting is pretty good."

Hearing this familiar voice, Yamada Gongkei turned his head to look at Fujiwara Yu who was sitting on the edge of the rooftop, and only then did he realize that he had lost completely.
