Let's reenact what happened on the stream
"Haah, haah, haah...."
In the beginning, you can here Child A's heavy breathing. On screen, the knees of her red sweatpants could be seen. Then, as she stands up slowly, she stands up on the trash can, her right leg first, then her left. For a brief moment, the smartphone's camera looks down from the mansion, and Child A climbed down from the trash can as if she were hesitating.
"Haah, haah, I'm scared, I'm scared, I'm scared"
She quietly repeats this over and over, and crouches down on the spot. Child A's breathing gradually becomes even heavier and faster than before. She seemed to be so attached to streaming live, why did she choose to die. From this footage alone we can't tell. However, the girl's panic and uncertainty was showing, even through the screen.
The camera shows the stairwell, her knees, and stays out of focus and shaky.
After crouching down for a minute or so, she suddenly stands up as if she's made up her mind, and stands upon the trash can again. The camera shows the ground from above. You can tell how high up she is. Then, at that moment, the camera spins while falling, showing the mansion's walls and the concrete in front of the entrance. Then-,
"Nnnn, ah"
After you hear a short scream from the girl, a large booming sound was heard.
Note- even if you see the actual footage, the sound she made definitely wasn't a scream. Idk why the article said this that way.
The smartphone which fell continued to stream, but there was no sight of Child A.
After this, the stairwell just stayed on screen, and then the video ends.
Child A jumped off the mansion as if she were possessed by something, but all of the students in her school agree upon the fact that there was little to no sign of her committing suicide.
"Child A started to skip school quite a bit after becoming a 3rd grade student, but she wasn't necessarily bullied or hated. When at school, she stayed pretty quiet, and acted like she'd rather be left alone than be talked to" (Male student from the same grade)
Even so, it wasn't like she was alone, without any friends at all. On the day before her suicide, she enjoyed going shopping with her best friend.
"There was a girl in the same grade that Child A was close with, and they had a friend whose birthday was coming up soon, so they both went to choose a present for them. She didn't even show any signs of having any troubles at all that day, so the friend looked sad, saying "I don't know why she committed suicide so suddenly"." (Female student from the same grade)
However, Child A had "another side" to her that neither her friends nor her family knew of. She was a "net idol", which refers to regular people who stream themselves dancing or talking on the internet and gain their fame.
