February 25th, Tuesday.
Saigon City, Free Wilderness.
Nameless Small Mechanical Ruins.
..
Characters:
17-year-old, depression, yellow-haired girl in yellow clothes, Sapasa.
16-year-old, cute and charming, white-haired girl in white clothes, Witiivi.
..
Witiivi's fate is extremely tragic.
From a young age, she often became an orphan and wandered outside.
When hungry, she would risk entering the Barbarian Forest.
To gather wild fruits and hunt small Genetic Beasts.
She was born a genius at wilderness survival.
Moreover, she has extraordinary innate subconscious abilities.
She returned playful yet unharmed to Free Wilderness.
She successfully passed the first level of the Professional Assassin Trial.
..
Sapasa:
"Did you come out of the Barbarian Forest?
How come you didn’t get injured at all?
How did you manage that?"
..
Witiivi:
"It was like a camping trip for me.
I just played my way out."
..
Sapasa:
"Weird. Didn’t you encounter any Genetic Beasts?"
..
Witiivi:
"No Genetic Beasts.
Not even small ones.
I wanted to kill some small Genetic Beasts for a barbecue.
Ended up having to eat only wild fruits the whole way."
..
Sapasa:
"Did the Genetic Beasts avoid you?
Or did you avoid the Genetic Beasts?"
..
Witiivi:
"Probably both.
I’ve tried to commit suicide in the Barbarian Forest many times.
Never succeeded.
Never even met a large Genetic Beast.
I think I’m just born to avoid danger.
I’ve caused the deaths of over a dozen family members.
Maybe Genetic Beasts instinctively fear dangerous beings like me?"
..
Sapasa:
"What’s the second level of the Professional Assassin Trial?"
..
Witiivi:
"To kill someone with your own hands.
And escape safely afterward.
To avoid the victim’s heir’s Death Ruling."
..
Sapasa:
"That sounds hard.
Rich people have Contracted Machine Beasts as escorts.
You’ll have to target poor people."
..
Witiivi:
"Right.
Poor people can’t afford Machine Beasts.
I have to kill the poor."
..
Sapasa:
"Still difficult.
Even poor people have information bracelets.
As soon as someone gets injured, within seconds,
the information bracelet activates video recording.
Killing is easy.
But escaping Death Ruling is hard."
..
Witiivi:
"That’s why the assassin need patience.
Don’t worry.
The Professional Assassin Trial has no time limit.
I’m a genius-level assassin with unparalleled techniques.
I’ll succeed."
..
According to the emergency defense settings of the information bracelet:
Once the human host is injured, within a few seconds.
The information bracelet detects abnormal vital signs and activates emergency defense.
It initiates holographic imaging.
And synchronizes real-time footage to the contracted Machine Beast and the Holographic Network.
..
Even if the information bracelet is destroyed.
It cannot delete the holographic records.
Therefore, within seconds of an attack.
The assassin must withdraw from the holographic camera’s field of view.
Otherwise, the assassin will be captured in the holograms.
And subject to Equal Ruling by the victim’s heir.
..
In urban areas, killing poses even greater risks.
Under the "Equal Ruling Network Contract" clauses for "Suspect Search" and "Clue Tracing":
If there is no holographic evidence of the murder, Equal Ruling cannot be enforced.
However, the victim’s heir may apply for "Suspect Search" and "Clue Tracing".
..
At the moment of the murder.
The Spatial Matrix identifies all information bracelets within the effective range of the crime.
The information bracelet closest to the victim designates the primary suspect.
The next closest designates the secondary suspect, and so on.
..
All suspect information bracelets are locked by the Spatial Matrix.
Their real identities will be obtained by the Holographic Network.
The Spatial Matrix also marks the locations of these information bracelets in real time.
While the victim’s heir cannot enforce Equal Ruling on suspects.
But they may pursue private revenge.
