Super God: If I punch you, you will die

"As a result, no one called the alarm until they discovered an anomaly in the area pressure alarm..." Teng added from the side.

This is undeniably a tragic thing.

"It's not just humans who are blind to this."

Yan uttered the most crucial sentence, glancing at the color detection device, and of course, at the independent machine in the video that served as a patrolman in this world.

The poor woman even turned to the self-reliant machine for help.

Zheng Lu couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

"...The worst part is that it's right in front of the PSYCHO=PASS scanner...so the prisoner's color changes are also being monitored in real time."

"Please look at this." Rokugozuka noticed things in his area, and she was the first to notice the changes in the complexions of the onlookers. The table showing the changes in regional pressure could clearly illustrate all of this.

"Still within the normal range. That's really scary."

"The only change in a woman's expression when she is being beaten is this."

"Is it possible that the numbers were falsified?" Teng asked somewhat unwillingly, after all, this was the only reasonable explanation, at least in his opinion.

If someone tries to be a "hero to save the damsel in distress," then the world will likely judge that the rescuer as a criminal, and might even be eliminated. This world has gone mad, completely mad, utterly abnormal.

"Someone help me, it hurts so much, really, someone please..."

"Severe stress response detected. We recommend you seek immediate psychological care at a specialized medical facility." The self-proclaimed machine uttered such words in front of someone about to be killed. Ultimately, it was just a procedure; it couldn't make a judgment about any special circumstances.

"Do something, this man..."

"Are you having any difficulties? The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's urban services provide support for the healthy lives of all citizens," the automated machine said in a programmed manner.

The helmeted man punched Hiroko Fujii in the head.

The Independence Machine and the people around her simply watched, doing nothing. At that moment, no one could imagine the fear that Hiroko Fujii was experiencing. She was walking step by step towards death, but not only did the onlookers fail to lend her a helping hand, even the Independence Machine of the Sibylla System, which she trusted, did not save her.

Ultimately, this is something people never even dreamed of.

A huge bug.

Can the Sibyl System guarantee the safety of the entire society? Can it guarantee that their property and lives will not be violated? No, it's a scam. Hiroko Fujii's pleas for help from Number Four couldn't elicit any sympathy from the man; these were antisocial thugs. Pleading would only excite them more, not stop them from beating the victim. At this moment, Hiroko Fujii was like a fish on a chopping board, completely at their mercy.

There is an inherent difference in physical strength between women and men, a difference that has evolved over thousands of years.

At this moment, Hiroko Fujii was almost in despair.

Is she really going to die?

The helmeted man continued to beat Hiroko Fujii, each punch landing on her delicate body. The more he beat her, the weaker Hiroko Fujii's breath became, and she gradually lost the strength to scream, eventually falling completely silent.

Only then did the helmeted man kick Hiroko Fujii.

This unbridled and bloodless one-sided beating has finally come to an end, but the most tragic thing is not the thugs' behavior, but that Ziliji did not step forward to stop them.

The self-reliant machine, meant to maintain order, is now turning a blind eye to violence. And everyone else is doing the same; not a single person steps forward to stop it. In this world, it's not entirely their fault that they chose self-preservation instead of acting heroically, but rather the fault of this era.

If someone steps forward, they may be considered a thug and a criminal by the independent authorities and be punished.

Their crime rate will rise, turning their lives upside down.

"If there are injured or ill patients, should we request an ambulance from the nearest emergency hospital? In this case, the costs, which are not covered by insurance, will be handled through other means—"

Those people just stood by and watched, without saying a word.

One of them was Choi Kyu-sung.

Choi Gu-sung has short, straight brown hair, with part of his right cheek covered by hair. He uses a prosthetic eye. He usually wears a blue jacket with a purple shirt and green pants.

P.S.: I was finally forced to temporarily leave my full-time job. I hope to return to full-time work someday. After eight months of working, things are finally on track. I hope everything will be alright in the future. I wish everyone a belated Happy New Year.

Happy Year of the Tiger! May you have great fortune and prosperity.

He wears an earring in his right ear.

Moreover, he was a computer genius who could calculate and solve many scientific mechanisms and discovered some of the truths hidden behind the Sibylla system, finding the core of the Sibylla system.

He is a highly skilled hacker with the ability to create holographic images of the exterior of buildings, capturing cracking reactions. He can hack into any critical website and spread disinformation to further incite social unrest.

Like Shogo Makishima, Choi Gu-sung is interested in the world after the Sibylla System has been overthrown. Furthermore, Choi Gu-sung has another mission: to help Shogo Makishima film everything that happened and spread it online—this is part of their plan.

At the same time, Ginoza was driving a car, and sitting in the passenger seat was Tsunemori Akane.

Akane Tsunemori was born on April 1, 2092, and grew up in Chiba Prefecture.

In March 2018, she graduated from the General Studies Department of Tokyo Metropolitan Shinhongo Junior High School; in April, she enrolled in the Department of Psychology, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Tokyo Metropolitan Shinhongo High School.

In March 2012, he graduated from the Department of Psychology, Faculty of Natural Sciences, Tokyo Metropolitan Shinhongo High School and obtained a Class I driver's license.

She achieved a score of 700 in the final review of her educational courses, and received a national vocational aptitude assessment with all A's from 13 ministries and 6 companies, making her a rare talent with exceptional career freedom within the Sibylla system. Among 500 students in her cohort, seeking a lifestyle "only she could achieve," Tsunemori Akane defied her parents' objections and entered the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Police Department in April. In October of the same year, she graduated first in her class from the Police Department's Vocational Training Institute. In November, she became an inspector in the Criminal Investigation Division.

On her first day as an inspector, Akane Tsunemori, suspecting that a potential criminal might be in control and use force to knock out or shoot them, knocked out an officer, Shinya Kogami, who intended to shoot a hostage whose crime index exceeded the prescribed limit. She was reprimanded for violating regulations, but received Kogami's approval, who hoped she would "be a good detective" under his command. Akane's tendency to question existing norms led to a conflict with her senior inspector, Nobumoto Ginoza, who was also in the first squad.

While the First Squad was pursuing Shogo Makishima, the mastermind behind a crime plot to overthrow the Sibyl system, he became the first person in the Criminal Investigation Department to have direct contact with him. They discovered he was a naturally pure-colored individual, an exception who could not be punished by the Dominator. Later, to protect his friend Yuki Funahara, who was being held hostage, he attempted to use a shotgun that Makishima had deliberately dropped. However, due to the long-standing influence of the system, he found it difficult to kill a pure-colored person with a real gun, and subconsciously still did not believe that a pure-colored person could kill. His friend Yuki Funahara was brutally murdered by Shogo Makishima, his throat slit, and he was powerless to save him, leading to a breakdown.

After experiencing the series of events triggered by Makishima, I began to have doubts about the system's security myth. The personality that the system believed would not reveal secrets even if witnessed by witnesses fully understands the true nature of the Sibyl System and begins to re-evaluate its myth.

She received a short, intensive profaing course from Professor Saiga, Kogami's mentor, and began her training as a detective. Her friend, Funahara Yuki, was murdered before her eyes by Makishima Shogo, but she relentlessly pursued him. After talking with Shinya, she gradually rallied and resolved to join Kogami in investigating Makishima Shogo. When Kogami Shogo was defeated in a duel with Makishima Shogo, and Makishima Shogo won and began to talk incessantly, she knocked him unconscious with her helmet and arrested him, but Makishima Shogo later escaped.

0191 Memories and the Future [Please Subscribe]

Akane Tsunemori, not wanting Shinya to become a murderer, was tasked by the system with explaining why Makishima must be captured alive. She then used this task to reach an agreement with the system: if Makishima was successfully captured, all of Shinya's punishments must be revoked. She further demanded that the system fix the Dominator to a non-lethal tranquilizer gun, otherwise Makishima's life could not be guaranteed. To prevent Makishima from sabotaging the system, she and Squad One went to Izumo University to convert it into a virus management center. In the final episode, she failed to stop Kogami, and Shogo was shot and killed by him. Although Makishima's ability rating was downgraded after his death, his value did not become negative; his healthy and resilient spirit, clear mind, and judgment made him an ideal indicator for future citizens. He was listed by the system as someone they most wanted to recruit, as he could make the system more perfect.

Finally, a compromise was reached with the system, pointing out that the system had created laws that were not worth obeying, which was a disregard for the law, and stating, "One day someone will shut down the power here, and you will have no future."

Ginoza glanced at Tsunemori Akane beside him and said.

"Or perhaps it's about publicly recognizing someone like Yan Shenghu..." Actually, this wasn't just a momentary sarcasm; it was a very complex matter that couldn't be explained in a few words. If things were that simple, they wouldn't have developed to this point, and Chang Shouzhu wouldn't be in such a difficult position.

This is an incredibly difficult time for this young woman, and this nightmare may continue for a long time, or even worse, it may haunt her for life. Some say that one shouldn't meet someone too amazing when they're young, especially someone like Lin Yan, but that's just how things are.

Perhaps this is fate.

Sometimes fate can allow someone to live a peaceful and smooth life, while other fates can plunge someone into the abyss. If possible, perhaps Lin Yan will reappear in front of Chang Shouzhu, but the possibility of that is very small, unless Lin Yan completely breaks free from the system's control and becomes a truly powerful person.

"Are you trying to mock me, Inspector Tsunemori?"

Ginoza spoke frankly, leaving Tsunemori Akane momentarily speechless, but the mission still had to continue.

Work cannot be delayed.

Although Tsunemori Akane wasn't a particularly mature person, she did know what was important and what wasn't. At that moment, an incoming call came in.

"what happened?"

"A regional pressure alert has been issued for Sangenjaya in Setagaya Ward... But that's one thing, but some incredible videos have appeared online, look."

The footage shows the helmeted man's violent behavior.

Especially in broad daylight, these thugs are so rampant, showing no regard for anyone and utter contempt for the law.

"...What is this...?" Ginoza, even the usually experienced and shrewd Ginoza, said softly in surprise.

There is also one other car.

That was the executive officer's escort vehicle.

0192 I'm your little fangirl! [Please subscribe]

It was called an escort, but it was more like a mobile prison for the officers, with no intention of protection whatsoever, only deep confinement.

Yan was with the others.

At that moment, the portable terminal transmitted the latest intelligence.

A stunned whisper.

"It was that guy's crime... It must be his crime, I guess. No..." Yan shook his head. The madness of this world was no less than that of any other world, not even the scientific madman in Sword Art Online could compare to the madness of this world.

This world is fundamentally flawed.

One mistake after another.

In the future... Yan will look at this world and it will inevitably collapse. Both the magnificent buildings of this city and the inner world of the people will collapse.

The world is coming to an end.

Or perhaps a new civilized order will emerge.

Which one truly constitutes a good future? Even Yan, who has traversed numerous different worlds and spaces, cannot provide a flawless answer to this question.

There is no definitive answer to this.

What exactly is crime in this world?

“Yan…”

"It's not just a crime... it's more like... it's about shaking some kind of 'foundation'...?" Yan continued, his anger not obvious. At least he was no longer the reckless boy he once was, but had some of the marks and bruises of time.

“We all know that videos that don’t meet the standards are usually strictly reviewed and deleted after being uploaded, but what’s going on with this video? Someone must have tampered with it.”

He had not received rigorous training and was not a hacker.

Of course, Yan is not an omnipotent god in this world, and his system does not support him having any superpowers or acting arbitrarily.

At this moment, he was somewhat anxious.

"Give me some time, just a little more time. I'm sure I can find the source. I'll catch that guy sooner or later..."

Yan said with utmost calmness.

Tsunemori Akane believed him without a doubt on this point. It could be said that Tsunemori Akane's life was saved by En; he was Tsunemori Akane's savior, her second parent.

Tsunemori Akane is also Yan's number one fangirl.

What interests Yan the most is that this world actually has such professional hackers. Does this world have a system for training hackers?

Such "prey" is worth hunting.

A smile appeared on Yan's lips, a smile that went unnoticed by everyone.

at the same time

Abandoned area in Shinjuku Ward - 2-chome.

A dilapidated old apartment building, its walls covered in mottled marks, water stains on the floor, and extremely outdated facilities, looked utterly abandoned. Yet, inside this crumbling building, there were still three men.

These men are all very young.

They were all wearing matching black synthetic leather jackets, and all had the same excited expression on their faces, panting heavily, looking quite abnormal.

Based on the circumstances of these three individuals, they will soon become potential criminals.

For now, they are still in a safe zone. After all, once their image becomes corrupted, their freedom will be restricted. Many places do not allow people with such a high risk of committing crimes to appear. This is what is called order.

The more dissatisfied and extreme one becomes, the worse the psychopass becomes.

Such people will ultimately be dealt with.

However, the standard for determining the crime rate is kept secret, but despite this secrecy, many people have still managed to discover certain patterns.

"sharp.".

"They call it a rehearsal, but it's the real deal."

"...let's go."

They got into two separate vehicles and drove off into the distance. Powerful weapons were inside, all prepared in advance; these thugs always carried weapons, so it was best not to provoke them.

A hundred meters away, beneath the building, lies—an extremely secluded place, a paradise for criminals, the basement of an abandoned building. Despite its abandonment, Makishima Shogo has transformed it so that it doesn't resemble an abandoned place at all. Besides the virtual projection equipment, the interior is also luxuriously furnished.

Shogo Makishima was comfortably reclining on the sofa.

That was a book—"The Revolution Betrayed Beforehand".
