Black: Mental depression. This can lead to illness.
In psychology, the phenomenon where one sense simultaneously triggers another is called synesthesia. People's sense of color easily induces synesthesia; therefore, color can easily have one effect or another on a person's psychology.
Colors like warm and cool, near and far, light and heavy can be distinguished by factors such as temperature, distance, and weight. Warm colors, such as red, orange, and yellow, are associated with the sun and fire, evoking feelings of warmth. Cool colors, such as blue, green, cyan, and purple, are associated with the cold sky and ice, making people feel cold.
The warmth or coolness of colors comes more from people's experience of light. Different colors of light have different wavelengths, with violet light having the shortest wavelength and red light having the longest.
Short wavelengths mean high frequencies, and their energy is not easily absorbed by objects, so people do not feel that they can easily obtain warmth from high-frequency light, hence it is a cool color.
In addition to the light source, the color of an object we see is due to the object reflecting or transmitting more light of that color or light source. If an object absorbs more high-frequency light, it will appear to be the color of low-frequency light.
High-frequency light has more energy than low-frequency light, so warm-colored objects absorb more high-frequency light and gain more energy, making them warmer.
The green plants also mimic the posture of ordinary plants, swaying with the wind and other changes, making them quite realistic.
Inside the consultation room.
There are eight people in the counseling room, and they work in shifts. Their main job is psychological care. Xiangdao is the one working there now.
Those gentle eyes gave off a friendly feeling, her thin eyebrows made her look delicate and pretty, and she had long curly hair.
People with this kind of appearance are very suitable to be psychological counselors.
This is actually an artificial appearance.
Before this, Xiangdao's appearance was not like it is now; she achieved her current look through plastic surgery. It can be said that this is the most suitable appearance for a consultant, especially since with today's technology, plastic surgery is as simple as washing your face and brushing your teeth, and people are more accepting of it.
"...The situation has worsened."

"...The situation has gotten worse."
He unfolded the electronic medical record card on the island, demonstrating his thorough understanding of the case's circumstances, and was about to explain and communicate with the people he was dealing with.
The person opposite him is the Inspector—Nobumoto Ginoza.
At that time, Ginoza Nobumoto was a candidate for the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's cadre training program, and one of the most anticipated candidates. However, Ginoza Nobumoto's background complicated his identity: the stigma of his father being a potential criminal remained indelible on him. Meanwhile, his friend had been demoted to an executive officer, and his medical record indicated he was a "critically important person requiring mental health care."
"That's it..."
Nobumoto Ginoza appeared indifferent, but in reality, he was quite uneasy.
He nervously swallowed, but no one else could tell that Ginoza Nobumoto was nervous; he concealed it very well.
"The hue is in the blue range, and the crime rate has worsened by 7 points... This is a value that cannot be ignored."
"........."
“Guests’ privacy is important. But that’s the police station’s criminal investigation department; this is the police station’s facility. If things continue to escalate, I have an obligation to report it.”
"I was planning to use a supply or treatment device for pressure care..."
"Medicines and machinery are both limited in scope. You should use simpler and more effective methods."
"That is?"
"Confide your troubles to those close to you." Xiangdao's smile is arguably the most professional. Like the standardized smiles of service industries in this world, such as flight attendants, they have strict standards, making people feel most comfortable.
This is the epitome of excellent speech and behavior.
Xiangdao asked while smiling.
How are your partner and family?
"I have no lover. As for family... only my father is still alive."
"At your age, your father is an ideal person to talk to. If there are no special circumstances, why not try having a conversation with him?"
Yes, it exists.
"Hmm?" Mukojima's question wasn't coercive but rather impatient, and his smile was very warm, so Ginoza Nobumoto had no choice but to continue answering.
"Special circumstances."
In the police station's sanctuary, in the chief's office at the highest position, appeared a woman's face—He Shengrangzong, with Ginoza sitting beside her.
He Shengrangzong is the head of the police station of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.
This woman possesses a fully mechanized body and is the world's representative of the Sibylla system.
She can arbitrarily modify the Dominator's execution mode, possesses a fully mechanized body, and appreciates Makishima Shogo's unique thoughts and rare immunity to sin.
At the same time, her multiple brains can take turns using one body. The mechanical body of "Hesheng Rangzong" is also mass-produced, and she believes that she has become a god who monitors the world.
Fujima Kosaburo, a former comrade of Makishima Shogo who had joined the Sibyl System, was sent as a representative to try and persuade Makishima Shogo to abandon his physical body and join the Sibyl System using the body of Kazuo Ron. The attempt failed, and Makishima Shogo destroyed Fujima Kosaburo's mechanical body. Finally, Fujima Kosaburo's brain was destroyed, resulting in his true death. So, what is true death? It seems to have become ambiguous.

During Shimotsuki Mika's investigation of Touken Sakuya, it was hinted that the character model for Kazusa Rondo was Touken Misako. Later, his body was used by the brain of Touken Misako, who was also Touken Sakuya's mother. He finally appeared in a holographic projection form, with the new name "Hosoroki Harumi".
She was quite an amazing woman.
A life full of legendary stories.
"I've read the report."
"Although Inspector Tsunemori Akane gave her testimony... can those words really be trusted?"
"The on-site investigation was very thorough. The suspect was less than eight meters away from the victim, and the positional relationship between the suspect and the victim was very clear. The crime clearly occurred right in front of the supervising officer, but the controller failed to function properly."
"The victim seems to be someone who has a good relationship with Inspector Tsunemori. Could it be that the panic caused the Dominator to make a mistake?"
"She can't be that incompetent."
“She lacks experience, that’s what you used to report.”
"But her qualities are real. Her abilities as an investigator have been proven by the Sibylla System's aptitude test."
"Although I suspect the report on the Sibyl System's judgment was proposed by you... As you know, being a criminal investigation officer is a career path to becoming a cadre in the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. The conditions for promotion are a pure physique and a crime coefficient of less than 50... However, it is very difficult to meet these conditions after serving in the criminal investigation department for five years. The task of commanding executive officers and dealing with heinous crimes brings a lot of pressure. There are also many cases of people with a danger value of over 100 becoming potential criminals."
"Ginoza-kun, you still have two years left in your term, right? But your 'color check' results don't seem to be very good. Of course, you've been doing some intense tasks lately."
"What is this—" Ginoza's words came to an abrupt halt. He didn't ask the question, even though it almost slipped out, but he swallowed it back down.
"I trust in the effectiveness of mental health care. Although there were temporary marginal values, I am not worried."
He Sheng nodded.
"Ginoza-kun, I have a very high opinion of you. Your loyalty, judgment, and execution are all excellent."
“…Thank you.”
"There's one more thing. If we can confirm that your understanding of the job is also perfect, then it proves that you are an indispensable member of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in the future. It would be foolish to let someone as talented as you be exhausted in such a brutal environment."
"This is……"
"I believe that rigid, conventional hiring practices cannot attract the talent we need. As a police chief, I can also try to secure exceptions for my subordinates' terms of office, as long as it's within my authority."
He Shengrang smiled inwardly. No matter what, Ginoza would fall into the trap. This was her plan. With such tempting bait, the fish would surely bite the hook.
This is a done deal.
He Shengrangzong was full of expectations for this.
"What do you think underpins this stable prosperity and enables modern society to achieve the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people?"
"I believe it's... the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's Sibylla system."
0165 Immunity from Crime [Please Subscribe]
"That's exactly right. Life design, the desire to achieve it—now, no matter what the choice is, people choose to trust Sibylla's judgment before worrying about it. In this way, no one has to worry anymore; they can just enjoy happiness and contentment. We have created a wealthy and safe society that is unprecedented in human history."
"...That is why Sibylla cannot be anything less than perfect."
"Yes. Sibyl does not tolerate mistakes. That's the ideal. But imagine if the system were perfect, it wouldn't need human intervention. Drones could simply carry the Dominator around the city. But the police department has a criminal investigation department, and you, the Inspectors and Enforcers, are the eyes of Sibyl, wielding the Dominator. Have you considered the significance of this?"
"This...of course..."
Originally, in Ginoza's mindset, the Sibyl system was meant to prevent the human body from becoming turbid and to serve humanity. However, what He Shengrang said at this moment made him doubt this. Shouldn't it be like this?
"...No matter how comprehensive a system is, a security strategy to deal with unforeseen circumstances is essential. In case of emergency, it can compensate for any functional deficiencies through flexible measures... Only by incorporating preparations in this way can a system become perfect. 'Perfection without any failures' is impossible. 'Perfection decorated with failures' is possible. For a system, being trusted to be perfect is more important than perfect functionality. Sibylla continues to bring grace to people today through this assurance and sense of security."
"This is classified information that is not allowed to be viewed by the Inspector General... I'm only showing it to you because I trust Ginoza-kun. Don't tell anyone else."
"This is……"
"An arrest record for a certain man. He was arrested without having his crime coefficient measured. However, the record states that he voluntarily accompanied the suspect."
"Fujima...Kozaburo!?"
There is a theory about this "inflammation": Makishima Shogo only destroyed the shell of "He Shengzong," while the brain of Fujima Kozaburo, the original body, should still be preserved at the bottom of the Tower of Nona. It's just that during the conversation, Fujima's personality was transferred to "He Shengzong" in the form of data transmission.
"He is the prime suspect in the shocking serial murders that occurred three years ago."
"The Criminal Investigation Division 2, which escorted Fujima, was given a complete gag order. It's only natural that your division doesn't know. Moreover, the supervisors and officers associated with Fujima have either risen through the ranks or returned to the facility; only a few remain in the Criminal Investigation Division."
"What!? For this man, we have gone to such lengths..."
"The timing is the same as this time. He is actually caught in the act, and all the physical evidence points to him, but the ruler is not reacting to Fujima. He did not reach the prescribed value for the crime coefficient. We call this rare case an 'immune person'."
"Exoneration...physique?"
This is an extremely rare claim, one that is almost unheard of, yet it truly exists in this world.
If it is the right side, then it is the most physique.
Wouldn't the world descend into chaos?
0166 Fujima Kosaburo [Please Subscribe]
Since the Sibyl system cannot detect its crime index, no one will punish or stop it. It can kill without restraint, and its only weapon—the Dominator—has no authority to punish others. How terrifying is that?
“This is a special case where the hue scan measurement and criminal psychology are inconsistent. We predict the probability of it occurring is one in two million.” He Sheng was still intentionally or unintentionally playing with the Rubik's Cube, seemingly a victorious figure sitting back and fishing. “As for Yan Sheng Hu, there’s nothing surprising about it. There’s a high probability that this man is related to the time three years ago, right? Fujima and Yan. It’s precisely because the crimes committed by two people with immunity from punishment have come together that the investigation into that incident has been exceptionally difficult.”
"This time, Yan's situation is arguably more difficult than arresting Fujima. The supervising officer facing him at the scene is alone, and a newcomer at that; it's truly unfortunate."
"How is Fujima Kosaburo...?"
"Although it has been publicly declared that he has disappeared, I do not intend to make any further comments here. What is important is the fact that there will be no more victims of his crimes."
"...He simply disappeared. He neither exposed the blind spots of the Sibylla system nor undermined its credibility; he simply vanished, disappeared. You are the terminals of the system. People can only understand the system through the terminals. The system's reliability depends on how correctly and rigorously the terminals function. If you criminally doubt the ruler, then ultimately all citizens will doubt the origin of this society... Do you understand?"
"........."
Why would this woman utter such words? Does that mean the innocent people who were murdered will never rest in peace? Is "respect for the dead" truly a sign of respect for life? Or does this woman believe that life is not worthy of respect?
It's unimaginable what kind of expressions the families of those murdered would have upon hearing this; it's so cruel.
What will they say, and what will they do?
No.
Can't do it.
It's definitely impossible.
This is a provocation against humanity.
However, as the son of a potential criminal, Ginoza has always lived cautiously. He suppresses his impulsive thoughts and cannot let lust cloud his judgment, otherwise he will follow the path of his old friend, which is a one-way road to hell.
He absolutely refuses!!
Absolutely not!!!
Take a deep breath—
After calming down a bit, Ginoza spoke slowly.
"...The report submitted is incomplete. Whether Inspector Tsunemori Akane correctly used the Dominator when acting alone needs to be carefully examined again."
"Alright. Bring it up again by tomorrow morning. Of course, you'll also need to prepare an explanation that your subordinates can accept... Can you manage that?"
"Please leave it to me."
"Ginoza-kun, you are indeed the talent I expected."
"........."
"Arrest Yan. The sooner the better, to isolate him from this society... But don't kill him. Immediate sentencing and execution are the systems of the Sibylla era. If you kill him arbitrarily, it's a deviation from the system. That's not allowed."
