[Charges: Participation in a terrorist organization, destruction of a primitive planet, endangering public safety, killing cockroaches, and erasure of memories to destroy evidence]

[Case Summary:]

[On the 189th day of the Alliance Calendar 51359, the suspect was involved in the destruction of the Unlucky Star and provided key items for the weather weapon that triggered the great ice apocalypse of the Unlucky Star (the evidence has now been found). The case has also been confirmed to have been initiated by the notorious criminal organization, the Red Dwarf Saints.]

On the 76th day of the Alliance Calendar year 51360, the suspect participated in the destruction of Apo Star and provided the organization with an infectious zombie virus. The case was ultimately thwarted due to the resistance of the primitive people.
On the 21st of the year 51361 in the Alliance calendar, the suspect illegally obtained and bred a batch of live cockroaches. Cockroaches are a Class I protected animal in the Alliance and are prohibited from being privately bred. The suspect subjected the cockroaches to inhumane torture, resulting in the death of 31 cockroaches, paralysis of 16 cockroaches, and one cockroach learning to meow like a cat.

On the 350th day of the 51362nd year of the Alliance calendar, the suspect was arrested. It was discovered that while the suspect's memory contained no suspicious information, there were significant gaps in time, which seriously contradicted the existing evidence. The memory structure showed clear signs of tampering, leading to reasonable suspicion that the suspect had erased or destroyed their memories to evade responsibility.

Li Ji felt a chill run down his spine: "So many sins are being pinned on me alone? I was only 16 years old in 51359! I was 16 years old when I went to destroy the world? How come I didn't know?"

"It's one thing to pin these serious crimes on me, but to also frame me for abusing cockroaches? Who can train a cockroach to meow like a cat?"

"Delulu is right. Don't expect to get out normally. We have to break out of prison and catch the murderer to overturn the case."

He continued reading the details that followed.

[The Unlucky Star's Series of Destructions]

On the 188th day of the Alliance Calendar year 51359, at 7:00 AM local time, the suspect ordered a total of 30 tons of condensate of eight different types. Given the high demand for condensate during the Barbaradu aliens' daily hibernation, this quantity did not arouse suspicion. Purchase records also confirm that the purchase was made by the suspect himself.

At approximately 4:34 PM, the suspect made an inquiry about an intergalactic delivery service.

The condensate delivery arrived at 6:13 PM.

At 8:16 p.m., the courier arrived in delivery spaceship YJ879.

The suspect loaded all the purchased condensate onto a delivery spaceship and sent it to the planet Maoqiu, 300 light-years away from our planet.

Because these condensates were subject to planetary purchase restrictions, many planets did not have the authority to buy them. Some Barbaradus would resell these condensates to other planets, and at the time, this behavior was in a regulatory vacuum.

According to the suspect's past records, he had engaged in 17 similar transactions in the year preceding the incident. This led the investigating authorities to believe at the time that this was normal behavior and to rule him out as a suspect.

It now appears that the suspect was extremely cunning, having started planning a year in advance to create the illusion of being a personal shopper, and even continuing his personal shopping activities openly for 47 days after the incident.

In reality, he was covering up the day of the crime, concealing evidence that he had supplied crucial materials to criminals.

...]

Li Ji remembers this incident. He learned about this information gap online: the condensate was listed as a controlled substance on many planets, and there were no legal channels to purchase it, but selling and using it were not considered crimes. This led many people to seek purchasing agents online.

He was thinking of making some money to reduce his debt burden, so he worked there for about a year.

In reality, this industry is too competitive; the price per order is very low, and you can only earn about 10 Alliance Coins.

Later, new regulations were introduced to crack down on the crime, so he stopped doing it.

There is absolutely no memory of any planetary destruction incident.

He continued reading the case file.

【…

On the 189th day of the Alliance calendar year 51359, at 9:43 AM local time on Planet Bad Luck, the Express spaceship YJ879 encountered a malfunction while crossing the outer orbit of Planet Bad Luck and had to make an emergency landing on Planet Bad Luck.

After the spaceship landed, the agents stationed on the unlucky planet, who were originally on duty to rescue the spaceship, suddenly killed the deliveryman and took the coolant.

At 3:18 PM local time, members of the Red Dwarf Saints used weather weapons and coolant to launch a weather crisis, causing the temperature of the entire planet to drop by 50°C within 30 minutes. Since the main life forms on this unfortunate planet were cold-blooded, such a large temperature change had a devastating impact on the indigenous people who had just entered the steam age.

The entire planet descended into apocalyptic chaos.

The situation remains unresolved due to the cover-up by the agents stationed on the unlucky planet.

Seven days later, on Oggimi, the planet closest to the planet of misfortune, the crime rate skyrocketed by 390% without warning. Most of the cases, once solved, turned out to be crimes of passion. This planet is a modern planet within the Alliance, with a permanent population of 30 billion.

Ten days later, a large-scale riot broke out on the planet of Oggimi. Even the planet's internal police system went out of control, with many police officers losing their tempers during the suppression, resulting in bloodshed and further escalating the riot.

Despite the deployment of troops to suppress the unrest, the riots on the planet continued unabated. According to tests, all life forms on the planet were in a state of agitation, restlessness, and even madness, including the garrison troops.

The industry refers to this phenomenon as the "Red Dwarf Saint Syndrome." According to current cases, whenever a Red Dwarf Saint causes apocalyptic chaos on a primitive planet, this phenomenon will appear on nearby planets, and if it is not stopped, it will spread rapidly.

The most severe "Red Dwarf Saint Syndrome" has spread to 17 planets.

Upon investigating this phenomenon, the authorities went back to examine the situation and discovered that the planet had long been in chaos. To quell the chaos and prevent its spread, they had to release a deadly toxin onto all living beings on the planet to achieve physical isolation.

The entire population of Oggimi was forced to evacuate in batches.

Fortunately, the disease did not spread.

The planet has also officially completed its full reconstruction this year and is now an important mining base. Local contractors discovered and handed over evidence that the police had failed to find at the time, including the YJ879 courier spaceship and the residue of condensate.

By reconstructing the spacecraft's loss of control using technical means, it was determined that the malfunction occurred inside the spacecraft.

However, the spacecraft had just completed maintenance the previous morning, and its only subsequent contact with the outside world was when it was receiving orders from the suspect.

According to the suspect's memory, there was a brief 24-second memory loss before and after the delivery of the package.

There is reason to suspect that the suspect tampered with the delivery spaceship, forcing it to make an emergency landing on the unfortunate planet.

After reading the case file, Li Ji gasped in shock.

He had some memory of the incident; the police had questioned him about the package after it happened.

But the matter was eventually dropped. He clearly remembered that he had not tampered with the delivery spaceship. Was this 24-second memory gap a fabricated accusation, or a truth he himself was unaware of?

Moreover, the details of this case overturned his understanding of the Red Dwarf Saints.

In previous intelligence reports, the senior student had never mentioned the so-called "Red Dwarf Saint Syndrome," a phenomenon beyond the comprehension of normal people. There was no reason for her to hide it from me; perhaps this was core intelligence that even frontline agents couldn't access.

There was no report on the case of the unlucky star at all. He did see the news about the mass evacuation of the star Oggimi, which was said to be due to demolition.

He forced himself to calm down quickly; there were still more details to check.

Moreover, the current evidence is insufficient to definitively arrest him; there must be more direct evidence to prove that he joined the Red Dwarf Saints.

He glanced at the mechanical door behind him and instructed Rosie, "Make sure to keep a close eye on it."

Don't worry, Master, I'm very sensitive, meow.

"He's saying strange things again."

Li Ji continued reading.

[The Attempted Destruction of Apoxing]

Between the 63rd and 67th of the year 51360 in the Union Calendar, the suspect purchased a batch of biological reagents, all of which were children's science experiment supplies, and therefore were not subject to control.

Subsequent technical testing revealed that these reagents could be cultured from the suspect's own flora and cells to create a zombie virus that targets vulnerable mammals, causing these mammals to lose their minds and descend into a state of indiscriminate attack.

On the 74th, the suspect participated in an extracurricular study tour to Apo Star to observe primitive people.

Led by their teachers, they traveled in mechanical devices disguised as giant plants and were stationed in the city.

To allow students to experience the customs and traditions of primitive people, the teacher specially asked the students to discharge pre-prepared plant fruits from the flowers of a mechanical device so that they could watch the indigenous people collect the fruits.

The suspect mixed the zombie virus into plant fruits, planning to infect the indigenous people after they collected the fruits.

Fortunately, the indigenous people who found the fruit were burned to death during the virus's incubation period because they were stealing the lord's plant fruit, which prevented the virus from spreading rapidly.

The livestock that later consumed the fruit gradually turned into zombies, spreading the virus to the local residents.

Because this civilization was still a feudal society, its technological level was still at the Iron Age, and transportation was inconvenient, the virus did not spread.

When the local population had reached a loss rate of 67%, a group of Apo Star University students who came to the planet for research accidentally burned down the entire city, inadvertently preventing the spread of the virus and were awarded the Outstanding Youth Award.

Recently, we received a report from a researcher of Apocalyptic astrology who discovered the virus that caused the zombie crisis. After tracing the entire incident, it can be basically determined that it was the work of the suspect.

Attached is key evidence: a video taken by the suspect's classmate.

...]

A high-resolution color photograph is displayed on the screen.

The young miniature jelly Li Ji is using a syringe to poke a round, brown fruit the size of a human head.

The students' laughter never stopped: "Li Ji is extracting juice and doing component analysis, I want to do that too!"

Then many different colored pointed proboscises pierced into the fruit, and the sucking sounds continued.

Only the teacher's stern voice echoed: "Students, stop! If you want to do research, the school can send you some!"

Li Ji felt a chill run down his spine. The person in the video was definitely himself, yet he had absolutely no memory of him. (End of Chapter)
