Takagi Gentarou's suicide triggered a strong public outcry.
Even though the French police tried to keep it under wraps, that eerie last message somehow got out.
And then all hell broke loose.
Outright insulting France while draped in the tricolour, can you believe that?
Uncle might endure it, but Auntie cannot.
The deceased is gone.
Thus, the K.E Group bore the brunt of Takagi Gentarou's unearned disaster.
"... The K.E store in the 6th arrondissement was set ablaze last night; the perpetrators have been caught, and the police are calling for the public to stay calm once more. The K.E Group released a statement claiming that Takagi Gentarou's comments were his personal views and are not connected to the K.E Group..."
Hospital room.
The real-time news was being broadcast on TV.
Not just in Paris, but many K.E stores across France were under siege.
Angry citizens along with shareholders affected by the calamity vented their frustrations through vandalism and looting.
