Super God: If I punch you, you will die

The fact that Ginoza did not object after listening to Kogami Shinya's opinion following Akane's report of violating mission regulations shows that he was not incapable of being tolerant of his subordinates.

Because he lost his classmate in the specimen incident because he failed to stop her, Gino is very strict with Akane Tsunemori and doesn't want her to make the same mistake again.

And Teng Zheng.

He was enjoying the latest game, which also featured the latest configuration: a motion-sensing gaming device combining holographic projection and a 360-degree treadmill.

In addition, there is the Six Harmonies Tomb.

She is reading an online magazine.

Since almost no one paid any attention to Chang Shouzhu's arrival, she wisely refrained from exchanging pleasantries with the others and instead sat down to write a report.

"...What is this? What's going on...this..."

She suddenly felt that the virtual input device was a bit sluggish. After trying to adjust it slightly, there was still no improvement. So she decided to ask Teng and Rokugozuka for help, since they were more like experts in this field than Tsunemori Akane.

"Um... excuse me, do you have any other types of levitation devices?"

"Yes, there are, but the prepared supplies are currently in use... Lin Yan..."

Although Teng answered, he seemed somewhat absent-minded and continued playing games.

"Mr. Lin Yan?..."

"Whoever was hit by the anesthesia mode is currently recovering... so how could he possibly use it? Right?"

Tsunemori didn't know why Teng was targeting him like this.

The backup device was clearly idle, and their last collaboration seemed to have gone smoothly. What went wrong? Tsunemori Akane thought for a moment, but couldn't find the answer.

"Please use this one, I have some more myself."

"Thank you so much... thank you so much."

At this moment, Tsunemori Akane finally had a good look at Rokugozuka. Rokugozuka's expression changed very little; her face was practically expressionless. Although she was also a girl, there was a feeling she had never experienced before—a sense of distance. Generally speaking, girls who don't dislike each other quickly become intimate.

However, Tsunemori Akane had a gut feeling that Rokugozuka was definitely not a cold person, at least not as cold as he appeared on the surface, and might be a good person.

"By the way, you're the on-duty surveillance officer, right?"

"Yes."

"I heard about what happened yesterday, and I heard you insisted..."

While they were still talking, an indoor announcement interrupted their conversation, and they both noticed the announcement.

"A hue exceeding the prescribed value (PSYCHO=PASS) has been measured inside Gracehill, Adachi Ward. The on-duty surveillance officer is requested to accompany the executive officer directly to the site."

"It's like what I said came true."

"Should I replace Lin Yan?" Liuhezhong asked naturally, and Zheng Lu, being the person in charge, made the arrangements.

However, Zheng Lu's reaction seemed to be within the scope of Liu Hezhong's expectations, after all, their cooperation was the most seamless.

“No need,” Seiji said, then turned to Tsunemori Akane and said, “Your Highness, shouldn’t we be setting off now?”

Before long, dusk had fallen, and another day had come to an end. At this time, the busiest place was undoubtedly the shopping center. The building had a state-of-the-art open-plan design, and a large number of customers poured in from all directions.

Some say this is the peaceful and stable life brought about by the Sibyllian system.

In reality, people's lives in this world are extremely impoverished, reduced to the point where they only buy necessities, while spiritual and entertainment aspects are no longer considered. Very few countries purchase these items.

Among these customers was a couple.

They had received advanced training courses. Those who took these courses were all young people, between seventeen and twenty-one years old, similar in age to university students in Lin Yan's world. Beside the simply dressed young man was a petite girl with a proud figure, wearing a miniskirt.

They didn't look like a couple.

They don't even look like a good match.

despite this--

However, based on the color scan and psychological analysis, the conclusion was that the two were the most suitable couple for each other, so they started dating.

The Sibyl system is no longer used solely to determine a person's potential danger level and to provide early warnings of potential criminals.

Moreover, it has a profound impact on people's emotional lives.

In the past, human interactions were based on 'emotions'. People would only interact when they developed feelings of liking or love for another person.

This is what people praise as 'love'.

Love was once the most mysterious thing in the world, even more ethereal and alluring than the vast universe.

Whether they are young and innocent teenagers, young men and women who have entered society, or even middle-aged and elderly people, many of them still believe in love and enjoy its beauty.

But now—

People are brought together by a piece of data, which is undoubtedly a sign of the decline in human emotions brought about by the advancement of human technology.

Just like this couple.

Girls don't seem to like boys' appearances.

The impression score of this plain-looking boy, who was even a bit rustic, was extremely low, not even reaching the passing grade.

Not to mention liking each other, or even becoming a couple.

In the past, such a thing would have been utterly absurd. However, in this world, it is understood and even accepted by most people. This girl once had a boy she liked, and she longed for love.

As the couple walked hand in hand, someone secretly followed them—that person was Yamane.

A deep hatred was evident in Yamane's eyes.

This hatred was like overflowing water, a flood that almost completely overwhelmed his reason. The more he saw the two holding hands and being so affectionate, the more he hated them; hatred had taken root and sprouted in his heart. Not long ago, that girl was Yamane's lover, and when she slightly expressed dissatisfaction with the relationship, the Sibyl System judged her as 'unsuitable'.

Such a judgment of emotional abuse shows a severe disregard for human rights and human freedom and dignity.

Logically speaking, how could a system's judgment be the sole criterion for judgment, rather than the most genuine human emotions?

Even more absurdly, some people use systematic judgments to determine their sexual orientation.

Yamane glared at the young couple through gritted teeth.

Although he resented the system for ending his relationship, what he hated most was his ex-girlfriend. This woman was unforgivable; this despicable woman had abandoned him. In truth, Yamane didn't want to break the law, but he couldn't let this woman off so easily either.

Why should he live in the abyss of suffering while this woman can shamelessly enjoy the nourishment of love?

Yamane was deep in thought.

Meanwhile, Tsunemori Akira and Seiryuki had already arrived at the mall.

They didn't enter through the main entrance but instead used a staff-only passage. Before them lay a very simple backyard, even somewhat desolate.

"After the alarm was triggered, the security drone immediately monitored the mall's entrances and exits, but did not catch the prey there. In other words, the guy caught by the sex check is still inside the mall."

"Um... I wanted to ask... about this... Dominator, should we use it?"

Tsunemori Akane looked at the Dominator with genuine hesitation.

After all, the ruler had brought him far too many unpleasant experiences, especially since it was his very first experience in the workplace.

It left a deep impression on her.

"We brought them over just in case, and based on my experience, they don't seem like a threat that would require us to draw our guns. Relax and don't worry, let's go?"

Zheng Lu's tone was still relatively gentle.

After all, this is a girl who has experienced that kind of thing. Although she is an inspector, she is also a fragile girl.

He glanced at Chang Shouzhu and activated the criminal uniform device.

The detective's uniform device was located at the collar, and instantly his entire body was enveloped in a projection. His face was extremely serious, while his burly body was imprinted with the police station's adorable mascot, "Komisa-chan." Tsunemori Akane also had the same image.

The transparent camouflage of the transporter blends into the surrounding landscape.

The two Comic-chans walked side by side, their fantastical appearances and kind expressions perfectly suited to the bustling shopping mall. When pointed at by a child who had come with their parents, Comic-chan—Zheng Lu—waved affectionately. Zhu Lian, following behind, couldn't even manage a proper wave, looking somewhat distracted.

"Can't you calm down now? At your age, Miss, you should be quite used to projected clothing."

"My whole body has turned into a virtual image, it's a little..."

“Full-face projection in public spaces is illegal.”

"In the shadow of the right-hand pillar."

With a reminder from Seiji, Tsunemori Akane finally discovered the hidden Yamane in the shadows, who was also their target for this operation.

"Is it really him? Why? You can tell at a glance? You haven't even used a scanner..."

Tsunemori Akane was also very surprised.

"This is all experience I've accumulated over time. After all, I'm an executive officer, and executive officers deal with these kinds of people every day. Alright, let's attack from both sides."

"start to act."

Tsunemori nodded.

So the two men split up, with Chang Shouzhu on the right and Zheng Lu on the left. They approached cautiously, fearing discovery and irreparable damage. In such a densely populated and strategically important area, any unexpected event could potentially cause irreparable harm. If panic ensued, those with weaker mental fortitude might change their demeanor, and their targets could be affected like dominoes, creating a butterfly effect.

Suddenly, Tsunemori Akane realized something serious.

Zheng Lu's Komi-chan had already stopped the young man.

"Excuse me, could you please measure PSYCHO=PASS?" Comic-chan's voice was set to a cute tone.

"Ah...why..." Why did this happen? This was completely beyond the young man's comprehension; he never expected to encounter such a situation. His face was pale, and he was somewhat at a loss.

He charged forward frantically, shouting as he went.

Zheng Lu swiftly grabbed the young man's arm, twisting it with effortless ease, causing the young man to wince in pain. After all, their abilities were worlds apart; the young man was no match for Zheng Lu.

Standard grappling techniques.

The young man had absolutely no chance to resist, and even his reaction time was so delayed that his expression was almost frozen. By the time he realized what was happening, he was already pinned to the floor, Zheng Lu's knee pressed against the young man's back, completely locking his movements.

Tsunemori looked on with some surprise.

She had also studied arrest techniques, but this was the first time she had ever seen such skillful grappling, and it was different from what she had seen before.

This grappling technique is very effective in combat.

Even against the most burly man, he could easily subdue him; that was the essence of this grappling technique. He quickly took out a portable scanner, aimed it at the young man, and measured his erogenous zone value.

……

Dark blue.

"It's already a deep blue color, quite murky. It seems you need urgent treatment and diagnosis. Please come with us."

"Why? I haven't done anything illegal. I haven't broken any laws... Why are you doing this to me?"

“Your hue is already quite murky; we cannot ignore it.”

A simple explanation of the expedition to the land.

But the young man remained indignant. He felt he hadn't done anything illegal, yet he was being deprived of his freedom—a deeply unfair situation. His hatred didn't disappear; instead, it grew stronger. If it weren't for his ex-girlfriend's betrayal, he wouldn't have become so morally corrupt and wouldn't have been targeted.

That's really bad luck.

It's all because of that awful woman.

Tsunemori Akira and Seiryuki escorted him out of the mall through the employee exit and onto the escort vehicle—or rather, the transport vehicle. They then returned to their usual routine.

"Um... can you really tell who the potential criminal is from so many people? Even without a scanner... I really can't believe it... is it really possible?"

“That’s intuition. Of course I can smell them… that’s the smell of danger, it’s different.”

"smell?"

"These were my skills when I was a police officer, but... after being in contact with criminals and crimes for so long, my crime index got higher and higher... which is why I was made a hunting dog and had to do these incredibly dirty jobs, right?"
