"This isn't boring, this is your ending."
"?"
After hearing this, Kento Shibata looked up at the police officer who stood up in front of him. He was confused but didn't want to ask. He pursed his lips and waited for the other party to answer him.
Fujiwara Yuu noticed Shibata Kento's gaze on him, so he picked up the third ballpoint pen and began to press it intermittently. He leaned on the desk, his eyes still fixed on the ballpoint pen, and spoke softly:
"Do you know how Japan carries out the death penalty? It's quite interesting, as it's different from other countries."
Kento Shibata subconsciously straightened his back when he heard the word "death penalty". He picked his nails faster. Even without asking, it was obvious that he was eager to know what was going to happen next.
Fujiwara Yuu was also happy to satisfy the other party's curiosity, and his calm voice sounded again in the dim interrogation room:
"There will be three executioners, each holding a button, but only one of them will work. When that button is pressed, the trapdoor under the prisoner's feet will open. Without the trapdoor, the prisoner will naturally be unable to stand in the air and will fall directly from the height. The noose will instantly break the prisoner's cervical vertebrae, just like this..."

Fujiwara Yuu didn't give Shibata Kento more time to control his emotions. He leaned his hands on the table of the interrogation chair, looked down at him, and deliberately lowered his voice:
"Want to die later?"
"……think."
Shibata Kento didn't want to die. He swallowed and tremblingly answered. He didn't want to speak because he was afraid of death. He knew very well that the crime he committed would not result in a life sentence, so he wanted to delay it as long as possible.
He knew that no lawyer could save him, and the only option that could delay his death was to confess and receive leniency.
Fujiwara Yu narrowed his eyes, turned around and walked back to the desk to sit down, took out a pen from his pocket and opened the notebook:
"Then tell me your crime."
