Super God: If I punch you, you will die

I had questions in my mind, but I didn't ask them.

Sometimes it's better to play dumb.

Moreover, romantic relationships between monitors and executives are indeed permitted, but the tragic ending of that couple is another matter entirely; it was their own choice.

"You should thank Zhu properly. It hit your toe, otherwise you would have been bedridden for at least another day... Even for you, it would have taken at least a day..."

"Has the Dominator already gotten used to it...?"

Looking at the sleeping Chang Shouzhu in the surveillance footage, Lin Yan was filled with emotion. Chang Shouzhu wasn't like this back then; she had changed.

"It's a bit like that—the newcomer, who was just starting out, is gradually becoming strong and reliable, and I feel a bit lonely and complicated."

"She will become stronger in the future, she definitely will!"

The analysis room is currently analyzing the helmet, which is Shinjima Shogo's most prized and most lethal weapon to date. Although it is just a helmet, it has greatly hindered their arrest operation and even blocked the Sibyl System's monitoring of them.

"Ask a question."

"Hmm, what?" Lin Yan's gaze remained fixed on the helmet, but at that moment a voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired the ability—all of Altair's abilities.]

[The power of all things—the power of all things to flow, the power of rebirth in the true realm. The power of all things is the power that gives birth to everything from nothingness.]

[1. The third movement, "Representational View," describes the ability to alter the structure of the created and the objects it holds.]

2. The ninth movement, "Returning to Cause and Effect," reduces the creation of things to "nothingness," and can also be applied to a military knife.

3. The thirteenth movement, "Summary of Origins," will revert the settings added by the Creator later to their original state before the changes.

4. The fourteenth movement, "Current Reversal," alters the cause-and-effect relationship, and it is known that one can transfer the harm suffered by oneself to the perpetrator.

5. The twentieth movement, "Factor Imitation," replicates the created.

6. The twenty-third movement, "Reconstruction of Cause and Effect," alters the original cause-and-effect relationship and establishes a new one. By enhancing the power of recognition, it ultimately changes the absolute 0.5 seconds that deprived Setsuna of his life and creates a new world so that Setsuna can continue to exist.

7. The sixty-sixth movement, "The Transformation of Existence," encroaches upon the created to become the other, but insufficient information density may lead to a backlash.

8. Possesses the ability to move between dimensions and worlds, and can also counter spatial skills.

10. The ability to regenerate itself and achieve near-immortality, extending beyond ordinary physical attacks.

"Is that helmet still usable?" While Lin Yan was examining the helmet, Tang Zhidu started painting his nails, looking quite pleased with himself.

"For now, but once the Sibyl system is restored, the corresponding program will be installed, and then this helmet will become a regular product."

"How long until full recovery?"

"Six more days."

"Could you open this door?"

"You're planning to take the evidence?"

"A search is necessary."

"...They were clearly pushed out of the search area."

Have you received the notification?

"Hmm—did you receive it or not? Come to think of it, I haven't received it yet," Tang Zhidu finished painting his nails, thought for a moment, and then skillfully operated the control panel. He unlocked the door to the analysis room, already knowing what Lin Yan was going to do next.

"Never take it outside, or you'll be mistaken for a terrorist remnant and beaten up by the citizens."

Tang Zhidu gave his instructions.

Although she knew that Lin Yan was someone who would never do something so foolish, she did it entirely for the safety of those who 'beat' Lin Yan.

No matter how many people there are, none of them can stand a chance against this 'devil' man.

"I see"

"Hey, Shinya-kun"

"Ok?"

"If I had sex with you, would the ending be different?"

"Ah this..."

Lin Yan never expected such a romantic encounter, but he had no interest in it whatsoever and left as quickly as possible.

"Who knows... We're probably not each other's type, and besides, let's not make Rokugozuka cry, she's such a nice girl!!"

"Yeah, that's true."

Tang Zhidu didn't even glance at Lin Yan, yet he could utter such words—truly befitting of Tang Zhidu. In terms of looks, Tang Zhidu was quite handsome, but he didn't fit Lin Yan's aesthetic preferences, and besides, Lin Yan had more things to do than women.

Inside the facility, there are many Dorons patrolling.

However, Lin Yan's login status has now changed to "Person to Watch - Important Surveillance Target". This distinction has drawn a lot of attention to Lin Yan, but Lin Yan doesn't care about such things; it's just a minor inconvenience.

He has never seen or experienced any storm!

"Ah, a helmet! I never knew it had such a clever trick up its sleeve."

"...What are you doing here, Uncle Zheng?" Zheng Lu gestured with his eyes; there was a thick envelope on the table.

"Anyway, you need to retrieve Shinjima Shogo's information, but it's a waste to waste time organizing those scattered pieces of information. I'll organize it for you first."

This thick stack of documents contains information on Shinjima Shogo; Zheng Lu is truly reliable.

Lin Yan didn't stand on ceremony either.

His combat prowess has now skyrocketed. If he were to face Shinjima Shogo again, he would not hesitate to take his life, annihilating him completely. Even if it meant going against the entire Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Sibyl System, what did Lin Yan have to fear?

"Also, consider this my farewell gift." It was a set of keys and a piece of paper with his address written on it, which he handed to Lin Yan.

"Memories of that era. Back then, I was worried and prepared a safehouse just in case... It hasn't been demolished yet, so maybe it will come in handy."

"Uncle Zheng..."

Lin Yan was actually quite grateful to Zheng Lu. In this world, how many people are truly trustworthy? He didn't want to change Zheng Lu's fate. He had said, "Perhaps this is the ending Zheng Lu wanted," so there was no need to change it.

"...Me too, I really want to go with you..."

"Don't talk nonsense. Consider your son's position. If his family does something outrageous, his career will be ruined."

"...I'm sorry...I'm really sorry..."

There's no need to apologize.

Back then, Kogami was still an inspector, and he had already become acquainted with Seiji. If things had been different then, everything might have been different. Ginoza's father was identified as a potential criminal, which was an incredibly cruel blow to both Ginoza and himself.

Seiji and Ginoza are truly father and son, and the hearts of everyone else are also connected; this is the true state of affairs in the first department.

Perhaps this is what it means to be bound by blood.

Even if there is deep hatred in one's heart, in the end, one will find that the truest desire in one's heart is nothing more than the truest emotion.

The notebook and keys are all safely stored away.

"Take care... If nothing goes wrong, we probably won't see each other again." Zheng Lu felt a little regretful, but he didn't regret the decision he made. This man might spend his whole life in regret, but the only time he didn't regret it was at this moment.

Squinting his eyes, Zheng Lu's inner thoughts must be very complicated.

“Yes… let’s both pray like this.” After putting on his helmet, Lin Yan walked out of the room without looking back.

The next morning.

The safehouse of the expeditionary force.

This is an abandoned residential building. The elevator is no longer in operation. You need to walk to the seventh floor through the fire escape, take the key out of your pocket, and turn it.

The security door creaked.

Ultimately, it opened smoothly.

Although it is somewhat rusty and jerky.

The apartment was in a mess, covered in thick dust. You could leave a complete footprint on the floor when you walked, and the dust was so thick it was choking.

"..."

The flashlight was the only beam of light in the room. Lin Yan searched the room and found a safe in a hidden spot. A note contained a coded password, which he used to open the safe. Inside were cash, a toolbox, and most notably, something wrapped in oil paper. He opened it and found a revolver—a very old-fashioned one.

Fragments of images flashed through Lin Yan's mind: Kogami's decision to escape from here and choose freedom over debt.

Meanwhile, more images emerged.

Kogami Shinya is the executive officer of the first squad, and currently the person Lin Yan has assumed the identity of. He possesses a physique honed through self-torture and an unwavering dedication to investigation, qualities that even his fellow executives admire. He has keen insight, thinks like a criminal, accurately assesses his actions, and has escaped danger multiple times.

Kogami Shinya, in order to remember his deceased subordinate, took the remaining cigarettes from him and began smoking, thus becoming addicted to cigarettes.

At this point, he chose to kill Makishima Shogo to complete his revenge and flee Japan. Later, he crossed paths with Tsunemori Akane again and accomplished a major feat, but he still couldn't escape his fate of being a fugitive. In the end, he lived with Dankin and Hanashiro Frederica, teaching Dankin various combat techniques and explaining the true meaning of revenge to her. Finally, he killed Garcia, the leader of the ceasefire monitoring group, saved the Allied Kingdom, and completed his revenge for Dankin. He returned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with Hanashiro to finish what he had left unfinished in the past.

So, what now?

Lin Yan also faces a choice: either choose the same path as Kogami Shinya, or choose to destroy the world, or choose to have Kogami Shinya arrested as well. Whether He Sheng will make the same choice as before is unknown.

"How should I choose?"

Lin Yan muttered to himself, and then a choice appeared in his mind.

[Ding! A new sign-in task has been generated. Your letter has been delivered to Tsunemori Akane. Please continue with the next sign-in task. Staying near the deceased Shinjima Shogo for more than one second will grant you the reward for the new sign-in task. There is no penalty for failing the sign-in task.]

Tsunemori Akane had indeed received the letter.

The most traditional method is actually the safest, which is why this method is used to convey information. And perhaps for Shinya Kogami, the person most worthy of his affection in this world is that girl who looks thin and small but is actually incredibly strong—Akane Tsunemori.

at the same time--

When Tsunemori Akane opened the letter, fragments of images about Tsunemori Akane flashed through Lin Yan's mind once again.

Shinya Kogami knows Tsunemori Akane as honest, kind, and compassionate. She cherishes life, values ​​friendships, hates evil but can control herself rationally, and advocates for the rule of law and morality.

Somewhat naive, but not calm enough. A quick learner, and always maintains a remarkably clear and pure demeanor.

They have their own ideas and perspectives, and through continuous learning, they have come to understand Kogami's way of thinking.

After Shinya Kogami left, Akane Tsunemori rose through the ranks, eventually becoming the chief inspector of the Criminal Investigation Division. Having honed her skills, she became calm and collected, adept at analyzing and handling problems, decisive and courageous, and also tolerant and magnanimous. She feigned ignorance of the doubts and dissatisfaction expressed by another junior inspector, Shimotsuki.

They are not bound by established norms and handle emergencies based on their own judgment; they have strong thinking abilities and a clear mind.

In the final episode, Shogo failed to stop Kogami and was shot and killed by him. Although Makishima's ability rating was downgraded after his death, his value did not turn negative. His healthy and resilient spirit, clear mind, and judgment are enough to make him an ideal role model for future citizens. He is listed by the system as one of the people it most wants to recruit, as he can make the system even 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."

"I'm sorry, I couldn't keep my promise."

"I became a criminal because I wanted to protect others, but Shinjima's existence changed everything. That man will continue to kill in the future, but the law can't punish him. As long as I'm still a criminal, I can't do anything to him. This incident made me realize that the law can't protect people. If I want to fulfill the duty I want to fulfill, I have to jump outside the law."

"Chang Shouzhu, there's nothing wrong with your way of living. Don't abandon it just because of my betrayal. In the end, I was just stubbornly sticking to my own opinions. I know it was a mistake to choose a different path from you, but I can only continue down this wrong path to face who I am now. Forgive me, but I won't say that. The next time we meet, you should be on the side that punishes me. When that time comes, don't hesitate, fulfill your duties. Don't betray your beliefs."

Pat-pat-pat-pat—

Tears fell drop by drop.

It was an uncontrollable outpouring of grief, like a bowl of water overflowing, constantly spilling over and over...

Tears streamed down his face, completely soaking it, even his eyelashes were wet, but no amount of tears seemed to express the sorrow in his heart.

Has he left?

And that's how they left...

Before she made any reaction... no, she should have had a vague premonition, but she just hadn't dared to believe it. It was a choice made to protect herself, and also a seemingly weak act of escapism.

"Although it was a short time, it was an honor to work under you. Thank you."
