I paid too much for the manga highlights

Dachuan Department Store has seven floors above ground and two floors underground. Nearly 5 people visited it on the day of its opening, and its sales volume reached millions of dollars. It can be regarded as a comprehensive building second only to Mihua Department Store in Mihua Town.

The afternoon sun was blazing, and only a faint smell of dust could be smelled in the air. The large refrigeration freezer on the roof was roaring, becoming the only sound on the rooftop.

The area around here is a commercial area with many high-rise buildings. The Dachuan Department Store is not the tallest, nor is it the most remote. Ordinary death seekers would not even consider this as their destination.

But at this time, a thin figure stood on the edge of its roof.

The haggard man had an unshaven beard and a black coat that was thick and bloated. It was torture to wear in the August temperature, but he was shivering constantly as if he was suffering from the cold.

Oi Chuanxin gripped the phone tightly, and the sticky sweat from his hands rubbed a thin layer of stains on the periphery of the phone, which he quickly wiped off with his sleeve.

He took a deep breath and looked up, looked left and right, and wanted to overlook the scenery at the bottom with some trepidation, but the moment he held on to the railing, he took a step back like an electric shock, the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks, dripping on his clothes and on the back of the hand.

He repeated this entanglement and hesitation three times, and when he put his hand on the railing again, a crisp ringtone suddenly came from the phone.

Oi Chuan-shin trembled all over his body, and he couldn't even grasp the slippery mobile phone. The black mobile phone bounced twice like a hot potato in his left and right hands before being picked up.

"This is Oigawa Shin, and I've arrived at the appointed place." Even his voice was weak and trembling, without the vigor of a successful entrepreneur, "How far are you going to achieve? Didn't you already promise me, Won't you attack my family?"

"..."

"I've already taken out all my money!" he yelled explosively. "There's nothing left!"

"Heh... If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do." The man smiled self-deprecatingly, a trace of despair and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, "Then I have nothing to say."

"I regret meeting you, devils, you are a bunch of devils!"

As the phone was actively hung up, Oigawa Shin's desperate roar only echoed on the rooftop in the end, and did not reach the ear of the person he wanted to reprimand.

Soon, he raised his hand high and slammed the phone down on the ground.

There was a crisp shattering sound, and the parts of the mobile phone shot to the ground, just like what the man was about to do.

Oigawa Shin held on to the zipper of his coat with one hand, while hesitatingly walked towards the edge of the roof, his eyes kept looking at the screen not far away.

Standing on the roof of Dachuan Department Store, all you can see is the screen.

Now it was his competitor's territory, which should have belonged to him, but because of his bankruptcy, it changed hands in a short period of time.

And today, he would have celebrated his daughter's eighth birthday from four to nine at night on all the screens around here.

Will his competitors give him the chance?

Thinking of how he made this request when he signed the contract, but was scoffed at by the other party, Oigawa Shin felt the flames of hatred burning in his heart.

And the black organization that brought him down to this point...

The clenched hand was loosened again weakly, and Oigawa found that even for the safety of his wife and daughter, he could not tell the truth to the police.

"I am so incompetent, I should die..." He murmured, "Wait a little longer—"

If his daughter doesn't appear on the screen, he doesn't mind giving the wolf-hearted guy another "big gift".

"You are... Mr. Oi, right?"

At this time, a clear voice suddenly came from behind, and Oi Chuanxin suddenly turned his head, and found that at some point, a young man in short sleeves and a peaked cap was standing by the elevator on the rooftop.

The other party held the backpack strap on his chest with one hand and looked at him with some hesitation.

Oi Chuanxin has no time to chat with others now, he just glanced at it before turning around indifferently and continuing to watch the screen: "The shopping is downstairs."

"May I ask what are you waiting for?" Chiyoya Toru did not leave as he wanted, but took two steps forward, "Can I be with you?"

The whole body was exposed to the blazing sun, the black-haired young man's hand holding the belt tightened more and more, he still had a faint smile on his face, and gradually approached Oigawa Shin.

"Don't come here!" Oi Chuanxin suddenly turned his head and took a step back. He tensed his body and said nervously, "You can't stop me, and you can't stop them either!"

The expression on Chiyotani's face disappeared. He pursed his lips, stood where he was, and raised his hands to give people a sense of security: "Please don't get excited. If it's money, as long as you live, you will have a comeback one day."

"There is no chance." Oi Chuanxin showed a weary smile, "Son, you don't understand, you really don't understand, so don't stop me—"

"Do you want to jump off the building?" The black-haired young man seemed to have seen his will to die, and asked very straightforwardly without going around in circles, "Jump off the building you manage?"

Oigawa Shin was speechless for a while, even though he had this thought in his heart, he couldn't say those words for a while.

"Are your daughter and wife still at home? What should they do?" Chiyoya Toru sighed, thinking for him, "If you let them know that you did this, they will feel sad too."

Oigawa Shin turned his head, not looking at those clear black eyes full of concern, he said: "I've already made arrangements."

"Your key chain is very cute." Chiyoya Tetsu said warmly, "Ms. Oi Yui's? Did she draw it herself?"

"As a birthday present, I sweetly called Dad and delivered it to you personally."

Jingle Cat's key chain is mottled and unclear, although some of the paint on it has fallen off, the owner still carries it with him with care.

Oigawa Shin trembled all over, and the unbearable look flashed in his eyes.

Chiyoya Toru took advantage of the victory and pursued. The information he found on the elevator just now became a good hand at this moment.

"It's her birthday today. Coincidentally, it seems to be my birthday too..."

Time passed by, and the sun was still hot, shining on the concrete floor, as if white smoke was rising, and the sweat dripped on the ground and evaporated in the air within a few minutes.

The black-haired young man pressed the hang up button again, and put the phone in his pocket. His complexion was a little pale, his lips were pale, and he was almost sweating profusely.

From beginning to end, he never stopped his lobbying.

With the well-behaved girl as the starting point, supplemented by various words that positively poke the mind, Oi Chuanxin, who is eager to love his daughter, was finally persuaded. He held the Jingle cat pendant in his hand, showing a slightly bitter expression. Smile.

"Thank you, Chiyoya-kun." He said, "But there are some reasons I can't tell you. After the end, I will personally explain the situation to the police."

It worked!

The gentle smile from the first meeting appeared on the face of the black-haired young man again, and he said softly: "Then Mr. Oi, shall we go down first?"

Oigawa Shin nodded in relief, but he did not follow him directly, but unzipped his heavy coat.

"Before I leave, I need to do one more thing." He said, "I have really gone to extremes these days and have done a lot of bad things for it."

As the zipper was opened, the long black strips wrapped in his thick clothes were gradually revealed.

"I planted four bombs in the office building next door." Oikawa Shin said calmly, "If the screen doesn't light up at four o'clock today, the bomb will explode on time."

The heavy coat fell to the ground, and the beast tied to the man showed its fangs.

"But at the same time, I will also press the detonation button in my hand to detonate the bomb on my body." He smiled bitterly, "This building is so high... I still don't have the courage to jump."

Chiyoya Toru's face changed, and he took out his mobile phone: "Which building is it in? Mr. Oi, please tell me the exact location of the bomb."

"That's the one." Oigawa Shin pointed to the building next to where the screen could be seen, and comforted him, "Don't worry, my controller can be completely turned off. After all, I'm not a devil who didn't give them a way out."

"Then Mr. Oi, turn off the controller first!"

Chiyoya Toru quickly tapped the screen with his fingers. Although the timer can be turned off, it is dangerous to place the bomb in the building. In order to prevent people from touching it by mistake, it must be dismantled as soon as possible.

And it just so happened that he was here at the same time as he was able to defuse bombs, and he could easily call the police.

……

At this time, Matsuda Jinpei, who was shopping for goods in the underground mall, popped out a text message with only a short line of words on it.

"The Huaxin Co., Ltd. next door contains four bombs of unknown type. It is expected to explode at [-]:[-] p.m. (may be suspended). Please call the police as soon as possible and assist in dismantling it—Chiyoya Toru."

Matsuda Jinpei read out the contents of the text message word by word, his face twisted for a while, and even the curly hair on his head was full of vitality like an explosion. He yelled and shook his phone, angrily said: "What is this thing? ? What did he do again!"

"Just now I called him and he didn't answer, but now it's all over!"

Jiang Gu Ling quickly grabbed the phone, quickly scanned it again, put the phone back into his hand, and said quickly: "So what about the Toru now? How did he know this information!"

Zhu Fujingguang's lips trembled slightly, he frowned, and the bouquet wrapping paper in his hand made a crisp sound: "If he left this building, he should have told us, since he didn't tell us before, He should still be in the building."

"And I know the time and place of the explosion, either I overheard someone talking, or he was right next to the prisoner." Kenji Hagiwara quickly analyzed, "He told me this morning that he was going to buy books, the bookstore is on the sixth floor, right? ?”

"It's been so long now, and he's already finished buying the books he wants to buy. I'm not sure, so why don't we check the monitoring?"

Datehang took a deep breath: "Kenji, you and Matsuda went to the police and went to Huaxin Co., Ltd. to assist in the bomb disposal; Ling went to check the monitoring, I started to search from the first floor, and Jing Guang started to investigate from the top floor."

"We cannot guarantee whether he is in a safe state when he sends the message, please proceed with caution!"

At this time, the few people were no longer in the mood to joke. Although they complained jokingly that Chiyotani Toru would be in danger when going out, and it was really bad luck, but when they actually met, they were only worried and anxious.

Without too much conversation, several people dropped their baskets and rushed towards the exit. Zhu Fu Jingguang took a last look at the sunflower in his hand, put it on the counter next to him, and quickly ran towards the elevator.

rooftop.

Everything seemed to be back on track. The relaxed two stood in the sun, and the pattern turned out to be a bit like chatting with friends.

Chiyoya Toru looked up at him after sending out the text message, as if he still wanted to know more information.

"Your actions are indeed a bit extreme, but if you stop now, you can still be punished lightly."

Oigawa Shin picked up his coat, touched the controller from his pocket, and said, "Compared to my method, the organization that traded with me..."

"call out--"

The inaudible sound did not attract people's attention amidst the noise of the huge refrigerator.

A cold light suddenly shot towards this side from the building facing each other in the distance, and the sniper scope reflected dazzling light in the sunlight.

"not good!"

The young man's voice was even a little broken, accompanied by shock, but he quickly reacted, and at the same time rushed forward——

Oi Chuan-shin felt the world spinning for a while, and his back rubbed against the hot ground, causing burning pain. The bomb pressed between the two was not detonated, but a red light glowed at the tip.

"This!" He just spat out a word in panic, but his face turned pale with fright at the scene in front of him.

The black-haired young man who threw himself on him was biting his lower lip, his right hand was propped on the hot ground, keeping a certain distance from the bomb on his chest, and his other hand was slightly curled up, convulsing uncontrollably.

His cuffs and upper arm were quickly stained red with blood, and the blood that exceeded the upper limit of the cloth's absorption fell to the ground drop by drop according to gravity, stirring up the dust on the concrete floor and pressing it into dots.

The original gray uniform of the police academy was stained with blood, showing a deep black, which was actually more eye-catching than the original blood color.

The young man seemed to have rarely seen this kind of battle, and there was still an uncontrollable panic in his black eyes, and uncontrollable twitches caused by pain on his young face.

The cold sweat on his forehead became more dense, and all the black hair around him was wet, but Chiyoya Toru still forced a smile to Kami Oigawa's new gaze.

"I'm fine." He took a deep breath, trying to support his body with one hand, "It's a sniper...Mr. Oi, someone wants to assassinate you, but that's not the problem now, I'll go pick up the controller of the bomb first."

Just now, Oigawa Shin had already taken out the controller, but with this pounce, the controller in his hand slid out and landed right next to the iron gate near the exit of the rooftop, only a few steps away from the elevator inside the gate.

"Don't move, I'll pick it up!"

Oi Chuanxin panted violently, trying to support his hands and sit up. The fear of life and death completely activated his desire to survive, but the dignity of the elders prevented him from being under the protection of the youth.

After the conversation just now, he clearly learned that this young man who smiled like a green willow in spring is only 20 years old, and today is his first birthday as an adult.

"Don't make trouble."

In the next second, the young man who stood up half straight pressed him down with his intact right hand, his eyes were calm, as if everything was still in his expectation: "You are the target of the sniper, and next , Mr. Oi, you still have a bomb strapped to your body."

If the bullet hits the bomb, the consequences are self-evident.

Oi Chuan-shin lay on the ground in a daze as if he had been cast with a holding spell. The young man's tone was too determined, which made him feel a little dependent in this desperate situation.

Obviously still a child...

"I'm also a policeman." He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, threw his peaked cap aside, and wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead, "Leave this kind of thing to me."

The guardrail on this rooftop is only half a person high, and the height of the building is also somewhat insufficient against the backdrop of the nearby buildings. As long as the sniper finds the right angle, even if he crawls forward again, the bullet still has a chance to shoot through his heart .

Then there's no need to cringe.

The young man took a deep breath, and pressed the tip of his tongue against his palate. The gunshot wound on his arm caused bursts of pain, attacking together with the scorching sun, creating a particularly stimulating feeling in the flesh and blood.

It's like dancing on the tip of a knife, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.

Adrenal hormones seemed to be secreted in large quantities, and even his heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. He knelt on one knee and rushed towards the black controller like a swift cheetah.

And after he was exposed to the sun, another silent sniper bullet shot over.

Feeling something, the young man quickly rolled to the side, like a dumpling of glutinous rice dropped into powdered sugar, the dust stained his hair and wounds, making his whole body dusty.

The bullet collided with the ground and shot out a ray of fire, as if it would burn the blood on the ground in the next second.

"Chiyotani-kun!" Oikawa Shino's terrified cry came from next to his ear, "The timer for the bomb on my chest has been activated, and the controller was touched by mistake just now, and it can't be shut down anymore!"

It's nothing more than adding fuel to the fire.

Chiyoya Toru's nimble figure froze for a moment, and another bullet shot at him, but it seemed that he deviated deliberately, and was dodged by him again at the nick of time.

"Why?" A throbbing question escaped from his lips.

It seems to be wondering how the controller can be activated so lightly, and it seems to be doubting the aim that the sniper deliberately avoided.

He subconsciously tilted his gaze back, but he could only see the glare of sunlight and the harsh light pollution reflected from the glass.

The sniper hiding in the dark is like a cunning hyena, he has to play around with his prey before killing his prey, even with a bad breath.

Chiyoya Toru took a deep breath, letting the scorching wind enter his chest, cooling down his overloaded body temperature, he bent down.

In the end, the blood-stained hand held the somewhat cracked controller, and the lights on it flickered, but no matter how much they clicked, they couldn't stop.

"Mr. Oi!" He squatted on the ground, gripped the controller tightly, and shouted, "Hurry up and take off the bomb on your body!"

Oi Chuanxin shook his head in fear, his eyes full of despair: "It's useless, I've already locked it... If the controller fails, I can only wait for death."

"Chiyoya-kun, get out of here quickly! Even if I go down to find the police now, it's useless, and it will affect other people."

"It seems that my life is doomed." He closed his eyes wearily.

"Stop talking nonsense."

The injury on the arm was not bandaged in time, and it was even more torn because of avoiding the roll.

Chiyoya Toru's face had already turned pale with blood loss, and he regained his composure once again, as if he had long been accustomed to quickly switching between extreme emotions.

He casually tossed the controller aside, and repeated.

"Mr. Oi, I am a policeman."

"No policeman is going to leave citizens alone."

His black eyes seemed to be burning with raging flames under the reflection of the sun, making them extraordinarily scorching. His steady tone of voice seemed to be just stating his profession, without making any waves.

If it weren't for this life-and-death crisis, Oigawa Shin would even have the feeling that Toru Chiyotani was talking in class.

But at this time, behind him was the open iron door, and the transparent elevator not far inside the iron door. The elevator reflected the sun's light and fell on him. The young man seemed to be a god of war born from the light.

He forced himself to stand up, and casually closed the iron gate behind him, only to hear a "click", and the iron gate was completely locked, directly cutting off the possibility of anyone leaving the rooftop.

"Wait—!" Oi Chuanxin's words got stuck in his throat and he didn't finish.

His mouth opened and closed, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes.

The moment Chiyoya Toru closed the iron door, he saw a young man appear in the elevator rising from the bottom.

Witnessing the situation on the roof, the young man showed horror and hammered the glass wall of the elevator with his hands, as if he wanted to rush in.

But his face was quickly sealed by the black iron door, separating the two ends.
