"I will die this evening—with you."
Angus's prophecy was like a thunderbolt, exploding directly in everyone's hearts, radiating heart-wrenching pain from inside and outside.
"No, don't agree to it!" Miyano Shiho, who had cried until her voice was hoarse, still squeezed out a little sob from her throat, trembling as she said words that were destined to be unacceptable to the target, "Teacher, don't agree to him!"
On the screen, the white-haired young man's right hand climbed up to his lips at some point, and it was hard to tell which was whiter, the white bandage wrapped around his hand or his current face color.
He began to cough in pain again, like a dying butterfly that didn't even have the strength to flap its wings. The light in his eyes flickered, but he held on stubbornly, unwilling to kneel down.
Angus, on the contrary, became indifferent. His blue-green heterochromatic pupils looked like inorganic glass in the dim light, and a feeling of uneasiness was brewing in him.
This time the silence lasted even longer, until even the air seemed to be suffocating and solidified. Miyano Shiho was awakened by the slap of the guard beside her, and she realized that her face had turned red from holding her breath.
Time beats by second by second. It will not be prolonged because of the pain and longing in your heart, nor will it be accelerated because of someone's impatience.
Tetsuya Kamiya tilted his gaze upwards, stood up straight, and even adjusted his gray scarf leisurely, moving in a nonchalant manner.
"It looks like you're ready."
Angus began to smile. He stepped forward with brisk steps and graceful movements. It was obvious that he was in a very good mood.
The vast night sky is the narration of the script, and the noisy city beneath his feet is his perfect stage. This farce that has lasted for too long will finally come to an end at this moment.
Kamiya Tetsuya was a little slow, and it was a little difficult to keep up with his pace. He was unilaterally led by Angus and swirled into the night with no return.
In a few moments, the postures of the two gradually overlapped with the dreams.
Even though the bells didn't ring, the nightmare still came as expected.
21:00:58
"I'll take you to see the fireworks, just the two of us." Angus still said that, with a satisfied smile on his face, like a child who was about to go home from school.
Kamiya Tetsuya finally responded: "Okay."
Everyone suddenly realized that Kamiya Tetsuya's "OK" actually contained the answers to two questions.
They don't want to accept either of these two problems.
"King——" The dull and long bell sounded after a minute's delay, like the gavel dropped by the judge, carrying an unquestionable verdict.
Angus was visibly excited; his black hair blew back in the wind, revealing his smooth forehead, and his fake heterochromatic eyes were finally filled with genuine joy.
He walked forward straight and fast, wandering into the void, his overlapping legs straightening at different times depending on his movements, but stretching forward without hesitation.
Finally, he leaped out with his whole body, and the wings under his black windbreaker spread out in the air, like a pair of spread black wings, carrying the shadow of death.
No one would have thought that the leader of a multinational organization that had dominated Japan for many years would die so dramatically, even with a kind of false and unreal beauty.
Because... he looked so happy, as if his lifelong wish had come true at that moment.
Humble and pitiful, childish and crazy.
But everyone's attention was not on Angus at this moment, except for Furuya Rei who was watching indoors, Miyano Shiho and Edogawa Conan all looked up, trying to find the last figure.
There was a loud roar, and the bomb that could not be dismantled all at once finally reacted with the ringing of the bell, like a series of fireworks that began to explode. The red light was accompanied by the loud sound of broken glass, and it looked bloody and mysterious under the night sky.
Flames shot up into the sky, and many onlookers screamed. Some people who were unaware of the situation even thought it was a new trick of the Suzuki Group and applauded with joy.
Furuya Rei didn't care at all about the little flames appearing below. He just stared at the only white spot on the rooftop, swaying in the wind and about to fall.
Compared to Angus who had already let himself go, Tetsuya Kamiya was calm and reserved even when facing death, as if he was just going to watch a fireworks display.
Borges once said that death is like water disappearing into water.
There was no disturbance or sound, as if I had just come into this world.
In fact, Furuya Rei knew that Kamiya Tetsuya had made all the preparations, and he had no intention of saying goodbye to them - he didn't even look up at the camera.
Perhaps for Tetsuya Kamiya, dying together with Angus was the best farewell to them.
Firstly, with Angus' death, the Black Organization completely collapsed and there was no possibility of its revival. Tetsuya Kamiya could finally stand in the sun with dignity, and the police no longer had to worry about the threat of the organization.
Secondly, he is no longer able to recover his former health, so even if he survives, he will only be a burden. Although Kamiya Tetsuya does not show it on the surface, he actually has his arrogant side. He does not want to be the one who holds him back, so naturally he wants to completely cut off his chances.
But... this feeling of powerlessness.
He only hated himself.
Furuya Rei let out a deep breath, and watched the white-haired young man quietly take a step into the void, and then fell straight down -
No, in just this short second, a black figure rushed out from the stairs!
Without even a moment's pause, he kicked hard, like a big cat pouncing on its cubs in a critical moment, with ruthless and desperate force.
He grabbed Kamiya Tetsuya's right wrist at the last moment!
Morofu Jingguang's body slammed down onto the terrace, and the increased force on his right hand caused his body to slide forward involuntarily. He could only hold onto the raised edge of the gap in the terrace with his hands, and the bloody flesh on his already unhealed fingertips became even more bruised.
He was panting heavily, as if he could release the panic and anger in his body directly along with his body that had reached its limit. The feeling of lack of oxygen spread, and his body gradually became weak. Zhu Fu Jingguang gritted his teeth, and thin streams of blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Kamiya Tetsuya could stand up and protect them even under such torture, so what couldn't he do? !
Weight once again became a special point at this moment. If he and Angus were a few points heavier, Zhu Fu Jingguang would surely rush up exhausted, and the only outcome would be that they would fall off the roof together.
It was precisely this millimeter that caught him.
Zhu Fu Jingguang shook his head and spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was covered with dust and scratches, but his blue-gray eyes emitted indescribable arrogance and arrogance. He moved his body with difficulty and poked his head out from the edge of the rooftop.
"Senior!" He said cautiously and almost collapsed.
There was no one to answer him, and she could only feel the bloody wind blowing past her ears.
"Senior!" He called out again.
Falling in mid-air, with the only connection point being Morobushi Kagemitsu's right hand, Tetsuya Kamiya lowered his head quietly, looking at the "fireworks" below - and Angus.
Angus did not let go of his other leg, and Morobushi Jingguang actually bore the weight of two legs.
Under normal circumstances, Zhu Fu Jingguang would definitely notice the unusual weight added up, but at this moment, it was almost like a "last burst of light" after exhaustion. He even felt that he had gradually become numb and turned into a tingling pain.
He just kept shouting "Senior" again and again, trying to get Kamiya Tetsuya to look up and look at him.
But no.
The first thing that Morobushi Kagemitsu encountered was Angus's angry and almost distorted face. The black-haired young man raised his head, avoided Kamiya Tetsuya's body, faced him directly, and said through gritted teeth: "Morobushi Kagemitsu!"
Angus really looked mad. The perfect death ending he designed was destroyed by the casual poke of the thief Kid and the leap of Moroki Kagemitsu, and it lost all its value.
The live broadcast plane, which was not destroyed by the blast, was still filming in the sky, recreating the scene of the line of death.
Fūya Rei looked at this scene, somewhat powerlessly wiping away the cold sweat from his forehead, his heart pounding like a drum, but he still laughed out loud in revenge.
"Hahaha, Hiro... well done!"
At the moment when everyone gave up hope, only Morofushi Jingguang completely abandoned any possibility of failure. Just like his stubborn character, he grasped the last glimmer of hope of Tetsuya Kamiya.
As she laughed, tears flowed down her cheeks and out of her purple-gray eyes, carrying with her a complex and painful feeling of not knowing how to react.
——It is the consensus of everyone that the current situation will not last long.
He was really too tired. He slid down the second floor, ran a few meters, and then climbed up the second floor again. Even for a well-trained policeman, his strength had reached its limit at this moment, not to mention that he was holding not one but two hands.
How long can he last? Three seconds? One minute? Two minutes?
There are only two possible endings: Morobushi Jingguang is exhausted and lets go, returning to the ending that Angus wants to see; Morobushi Jingguang is exhausted and dies in the sea of fire with the two.
Based on Rei Kotani's understanding of childhood infections, this guy will undoubtedly choose the latter.
He was literally crushed by guilt.
It was impossible for Morofushi Kagemitsu to watch Kamiya Tetsuya die in front of him, let alone release him personally.
The dusty body grasped the slender wrist wrapped in a bandage, destined to never separate again.
Under extreme tension, time will be endlessly stretched, extending into many trivial feelings and changes, which add up to form a python that will strangle you alive and suffocate you.
Hiro, can you convince Tetsuya Kamiya?
Furuya Rei sat quietly. Although he was not injured, he looked more desperate than when he escaped from the organization.
His forehead was almost completely wet with cold sweat, and there was confusion in his gray-purple eyes, like a wanderer lost in the rainy night.
---------------
Morobushi Kagemitsu ignored Angus's impotent rage. He just looked at Kamiya Tetsuya and said in a voice that was almost pleading: "Senior, please take a look... Please, don't give up on living."
Live... He doesn't want to live anymore!!
Kamiya Tetsuya was so angry that he didn’t know how to curse: “…#￥％@#@TT!”
He is so stupid, really. Why doesn't he bring an extra lock to lock the door to the rooftop?
The wind on this rooftop is really strong...
The consciousness flowed through the two bodies, and finally temporarily stopped at Kamiya No. 5. Salted Fish issued angry and aggrieved threats, trying to scare Morobushi Jingguang into letting go.
But... it's useless.
After spending so much time together, Kamiya Tetsu knows the Red Party inside out: kind, persistent, and one-track-minded, it can be said that he has no flaws, and he continues to shine and contribute to the masses.
They are the gears that make up the main plot of the comics, the nails that are linked together and perform their duties loyally.
If Tetsuya Kamiya hadn't existed, they would have continued to move forward step by step at the original pace, becoming the white moonlight and cinnabar mole in the hearts of the audience. There might have been pain, but he shouldn't have been the one causing the pain.
They are all a bunch of idiots!
In the original storyline of the manga, Matsuda Jin could have torn himself to pieces for a clue, but in reality, Morofushi Kagemitsu came over and grabbed him, so naturally there was no possibility of letting go.
Tetsuya Kamiya just felt a splitting headache.
Can Zhufu Jingguang die?
cannot.
This manga wants to have a happy ending, so it's impossible for them to die together. It makes sense for him to die with Angus for the sake of justice, but it doesn't make sense for him to die with Morofushi Kagemitsu when he comes to save him...
If Morobushi Kagemitsu really died, the forum would definitely explode, and the world line that failed to reach the true ending of the boy's manga might be reset. What would happen then is something that Kamiya Tetsuya could not predict.
But he was just one step away from winning, and he didn't want to give up...
The chips that allowed him to stay were not enough to overcome his desire to escape and die.
Kamiya Tetsuya was confused and he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Xianyu Nian racked his brains and found that it was impossible to convince Morobushi Jingguang with words. He was even a little worried that he would be turned against by the other party's sugar-coated bullets.
What if I agree on impulse and then regret it later?
Tetsuya Kamiya is still somewhat aware of his self-control in certain areas.
Through Angus's eyes, Kamiya Tetsuya looked at Morobushi Kagemitsu's unclear blue-gray eyes. They were like a surging river, filled with emotions that he could not understand, as if all of them were poured into him with the word "senior".
If it really doesn't work, just wait until Zhu Fu Jingguang is exhausted and relaxed, and then throw him up again.
There shouldn't be anyone who would seek death by jumping down knowing that there is no way out, right?
Putting himself in his shoes, Kamiya Tetsuya felt that his instinct to seek could still play a certain role in a split second.
At some point, the body wants to live more than the brain.
Very good, it’s settled!
-----------------
21:01:10
The fireworks have already bloomed, but there is no one to appreciate them at the moment. In the howling night wind, all that can be heard are long, chaotic roars accompanied by hoarse and distorted sobs.
There seemed to be real fireworks going off in the distance. The golden light of the streamers rushed up to the sky and turned into a field of stars, brighter and farther away than the stars in the sky. They fell down in an instant and passed by the edge of the rooftop, as if trying to grab something.
"Thief Kid, you haven't gone yet?!" Conan Edogawa gritted his teeth and heard the sound from the earphone, "Hurry up!"
He was running between the floors at the moment, trying to find a suitable place to help, but in the critical moment, he seemed so weak and frail.
Matsuda Jin and Hagiwara Kenji have already left the twin towers and are trying to get to the rooftop from the ground floor, but because of the password failure caused by the explosion, they cannot reach the upper floors in a short time.
The helicopter did come, but due to the airflow of the explosion, it could not get close to the rooftop. At this moment, it was like a giant standing in a small country, moving helplessly in the sky, trying to stop the clock and stop time.
For a moment, the hang glider was the only thing that seemed to be blocking the traffic, weaving in and gliding past unsteadily.
Kuroba Kaito controlled the hang glider, and as the flames of the explosion rose, he almost brushed past the flames - he felt that he was simply the most miserable rescuer in the world!
The thief pressed the earphone: "It's no use for you to urge me. My hang glider is not remote controlled. It was lifted up by the wind and waves of the explosion. I have to adjust the direction first!"
"Then adjust it quickly!"
Kuroba Kaito looked at the black spot in the distance through his monocle and couldn't help but howl, "Are you sure? Three people? This is a hang glider, not a plane!"
Conan Edogawa almost blurted out that the one with black hair didn't need to be rescued, but he forced himself to hold it back before saying it out loud.
No... Although he wished Angus would die, there were some things he could not say no matter what.
If the famous detective Kudo Shinichi disregarded his life, I'm sure Kamiya would be disappointed in him.
After a while, he just said, "Come on!"
Kuroba Kaito: “…” Come on damn it!
--------------
21:01:15
From the explosion, to stepping off the roof, to the leap, to the current stalemate, only a few seconds had actually passed.
In these few short seconds, everything changed rapidly, tossing my originally desperate heart up and down repeatedly, kneading it back and forth, causing the numbness that penetrated my bones and the tension that stimulated my scalp to mix together, all attached to my vision - I couldn't take my eyes away.
Angus's outburst lasted only a moment, and soon he calmed down, as if he accepted it, or he didn't think Zhu Fu Jingguang could change the outcome.
It's just a futile struggle for a while longer.
The black-haired young man still held Kamiya Tetsuya's wrist tightly, and the blood on the latter's wrist dripped along the joint and fell on his cheek, drop by drop, like bloody tears spilled during the interrogation.
Tetsuya Kamiya kept his head down, as if trying to avoid Morobushi Kagemitsu's gaze. Only through the strands of hair blown by the wind and covering his face could one see his slightly trembling eyelashes.
Zhu Fu Jingguang gasped for breath, and he felt the buzzing in his head getting louder and louder. In front of his eyes, there were flashing black spots like those in a TV with poor signal.
As he staggered, he saw Angus's indifferent expression and felt more and more that this was a fatal tug of war.
Kamiya Tetsuya did not react. Only blood continued to flow down his jaw. Even his cough was blown away by the wind and disappeared into the night.
The one between 눒 and 꿗, two opposite forces pulling him, must be more uncomfortable than jumping directly.
But Morofushi Jingguang was unable to accomplish this.
Is the senior in a coma? Yes, his health is so poor. This is better, at least I won't be tempted by Angus to continue falling.
The thoughts in his mind were in turmoil, but he could not escape the whirlpool of emotions in front of him. Morofushi Jingguang felt that he was not saving Kamiya Tetsuya, but saving himself.
This heavy weight is his guilt.
Zhu Fu Jingguang held his breath and began to pull back. He lifted his arm upward with all his strength, then moved it inward with all his strength, concentrating all his consciousness on his fingers. The muscles in his arms trembled in the night breeze as if they would burst at any time.
But when Morofushi Jingguang tried for a long time and was awakened by the second explosion, he found that he seemed to still stay in the same place. Even if he tried his best, all he could do was grab Kamiya Tetsuya's arm, but he couldn't take the next step.
Even his so-called long struggle time definitely did not exceed three seconds in reality.
He still seems to overestimate himself.
Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled bitterly in his heart, but the expression on his face was distorted because his body convulsed and twitched to the limit, as if he was crying but not crying.
Sure enough, no matter whether it was years ago or years later, he would never be the one to save the child. Instead, he was like a cowardly little devil, always holding back.
If I could be firm in my judgment and not be disturbed by other people's ideas, I wouldn't end up like this.
Suddenly his mind was extremely clear. Zhu Fu Jingguang counted silently in his heart and felt that given his current condition, he could only hold on for a few more seconds at most.
굛 seconds later... Let's just leave it at that. I feel a little sorry for Gao Ming and those bastards.
땤In the room facing each other from afar, Furuya Rei watched this scene quietly and sighed: "Hiro..."
The senior whom he respected and felt guilty about, his close and familiar childhood friend, was now facing an almost certain death, but he could not help at all.
What disgusting weakness.
The blond young man staggered to his feet, his heart burning like a fire, crackling with Angus' mocking laughter.
He couldn't keep running away. No matter what the outcome would be, he was the one who should take action. He wanted to watch Angus turn into ashes and be completely shattered!
This is Rei Furuya's hatred and has nothing to do with the police.
------------------
The glass platform bridge had been completely destroyed, and the aftershocks of the explosion caused the building to shake, making it increasingly difficult to control one's body.
Zhu Fu Jingguang had unknowingly fallen halfway outside.
He tried to tilt his head upwards. The torn wound on his arm was stained with blood, which rubbed against the surface of the roof and flowed down the wall. The blood was just hooked on the protrusion, like a silent rivet, without moving at all.
It's just that rivets will rust, and with the impact of time, sweat, and blood, they will eventually break.
"Let it go."
Kamiya Tetsuya's calm voice suddenly came, and Morofushi Kagemitsu shuddered all over, just like the brief awakening after a sudden doze during class. He tried to open his somewhat distracted eyes and look down.
no!
But Angus was one step faster than him in answering.
The black-haired young man simply said, "Okay."
He tilted his head slightly and looked at Kamiya Tetsuya, like a child asking his parents for a promise, with a tiny plea and a desperate gamble: "You will do it this time, right?"
"Yeah." The white-haired young man responded lightly, just like they did "last time".
"I agree." Angus tilted his head and gave Zhu Fu Jingguang a provocative smile, "I hope you don't bring this guy with you."
“Death is sometimes so cheap.”
It's like a poem from A Night of Night, even the ending note is careless and lazy, just like the Nordic rap that Angus pretended to sing when he first appeared.
He shook violently, kicked his feet against the wall, and at the same time loosened his grip on Kamiya Tetsuya, forming a "big" character, like a black butterfly with its broken wings spread out, with a flame behind it. He left the hotbed and fell down.
As he fell, the black-haired young man smiled and stretched his right hand upwards, as if he wanted to touch that pure white for the last time.
In the end, he touched nothing, melted into the interweaving of red and black, and disappeared.
--------
21:01:18
Only three seconds passed again, but the wind became stronger.
At this moment, the only connection between Zhu Fu Jingguang and the rooftop was his still completely stiff body. He slowly struggled to raise his fingers, and then pressed them down again.
Angus's revenge before he fell caused half of his body to slide out completely, leaving only one leg struggling in vain, like a raindrop dripping from the tip of a leaf, which would be blown into the mud by a strong wind.
But Zhu Fu Jingguang was extremely quiet at this moment. He just smiled and said weakly, "Senior, don't you have anything to say to me?"
Kamiya Tetsuya looked up at him, his tone carrying a hint of disdain: "You are in trouble."
"Yes, yes, it's very troublesome." Zhu Fu Jingguang responded helplessly and gently, his voice barely audible, "But I still want a piece of blueberry cake for you."
"Well...if there is a heaven, there shouldn't be a shortage of cakes."
With this irreversible step, Morobushi Jingguang could even make a few jokes, or perhaps he thought it was not bad.
At least he had changed that nightmare and didn't let his predecessor disappear in a bloody rain.
——He went from being a spectator to a participant.
What a small step forward!
But it made all the people in the palace extremely satisfied.
A hint of helplessness flashed across Kamiya Tetsuya's light golden eyes, and he said, "Really - thank you."
Morofushi Jingguang is really out of his mind to still be thinking about the cake in this situation!
Seeing that the brown-haired young man finally showed signs of being unable to hold on, Kamiya Tetsuya finally said again: "Let go."
"There's no point in letting it go now." Zhu Fu Jingguang whispered, even with his usual considerateness, "Sorry, it may hurt a little."
The white-haired young man glared at him, the fireworks in the sky reflected in his golden eyes of varying depths, looking particularly bright as they rose and fell.
"You can put another one!"
Xianyu regained his usual self-righteousness, and Zhu Fujingguang was choked for a long time by his unconventional words.
