Shirley body reaction in the doujin closed the bleeding too, but looking the difference:

In the anime she was injured in a very strange place for a suicide, under the sternum, a place without organ presence, she had to have the "luck" to hit the thoracic aorta for to die and in that case her death was....very fast, 1-2 minutes, then Lelouch couldn't have the time to find her alive and speak with her.
IF the thoracic aorta wasn't damaged, that wasn't a mortal wound,

In the doujin she was injured in the belly, maybe liver, a very common way to make suicide with a gun if you have fear and no experience about human anathomy, with the liver damaged, you can live max 10-12 minutes, then all the realistic time for that kind of event with Shirley die in front to Lelouch after a short dialogue.

I know, that doujin maybe is exaggerated, or maybe not thanks the lack of info in the original anime the mangaka can invent a lot of things.

However, the "suicide way" used by Rolo in the comic was more believable in comparison with the original, because more common for a feared young girl to try to kill herself in that way.
