[Psycho-Pass] Paranoia

"I haven't killed anyone since I became an executive officer."

The second-line surveillance officer, Qingliu Licai, was looking at Ryoko, a tall woman with neat short hair. Although she had a completely different personality from the Shenyue surveillance officer, they were very good friends.

"Yes. How is Supervisor Shenyue doing now?" Liangzi couldn't help worrying about Shenyue after not seeing Shenyue for a few days. What kind of tasks would require Supervisor Shenyue to personally operate and even be seriously injured.

"Still in treatment." Mentioning Shenyue, Qingliu looked a little uneasy, "You are a rare example, the crime coefficient has dropped to a normal level, although the color is still turbid, but you are a good citizen recognized by the system, no longer Fit for the post of Executive Officer."

Ryoko was a little flustered, she thought that as long as she concealed the matter, no one would know.

"The surveillance officer has the authority to check your daily crime coefficient." Qingliu looked at the slightly panicked Liangzi, and she couldn't help being a little surprised, "What's wrong with you?"

"Can I not leave here?" Ryoko almost blurted out, which is of course a rude and ridiculous request.

"Because there is no precedent to follow, so I don't know. But, Miss Liangzi." Looking at Liangzi, Qingliu hesitated, "You have a special status, and your father is a cabinet minister. Your father will not want you to stay in the here."

"My father will not interfere with me." Liangzi wanted to refute her confidently, but felt like an ignorant child when he said this.

"Whether it is to put you in the ranks of executive officers or restore you to a normal citizen status, the Public Security Bureau will seek his opinion to get a consistent result." Surprised by Ryoko's ignorance, Aoyagi's surveillance officer is like As you would say to a spoiled child, "Maybe your father intended to give you more experience, but now you don't need to be here anymore."

"Father, he..." Liangzi wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, she knew that even as an executive officer, she received special treatment different from others-because he was her father, he couldn't really dispose of it. She doesn't care.As the child of the highest-level central government leader, coming to this place where potential criminals with low social status gather is of course the result of his father's intentional arrangement.

Her dignity as an adult has been severely hit, but this is not what makes Yoshiko feel powerless.She sees herself as a potential criminal like everyone else, and tries to fit in here.But what she identified as the "new world" was something so easily destroyed by the outside world.

What face does she have to face the colleagues and superiors she gradually likes?In the end she has always been the so-called privileged class.

She is just an exploiter who comes to experience the life of the exploited.Even she felt ashamed and sick of herself.

Liangzi left the office of the second class at a loss, and went to the reception room to meet his father.

Now he is only one step away from being the prime minister, Ryoko feels that the distance between him and her is not as close as she imagined, but in fact she doesn't know him very well.

"Is putting me in a correctional facility also something you'd like to see? Is being an executive, or the current situation, the outcome you want? What's the point of doing that? Watch me like a lab rat , Is this what you have done to me, father, for more than a year?" Liangzi was in a state of confusion because he had never seen his father's true intentions clearly.

"I thought you should have noticed it earlier." After a while, the father standing in front of the window turned to look at her.

"Is it because you are afraid that I will become a stain on your clean official career?"

"No. Because you are protected too well. When I realized this mistake, you had a mental problem. Of course, as a father, I want to help my daughter get rid of this trouble completely, instead of continuing to protect you in the pressure treatment room Li. I hope you recover and become stronger than before, then the Public Security Bureau is the most natural and ingenious recovery facility."

Her father's explanation made her feel a little relieved, and her uneasiness dissipated in an instant.

"However, I don't need to leave here anymore. I like this place, and it's suitable for me to stay here." Ryoko's voice was begging, "I found the most suitable career for me, and I also found a job that I never had before. belief, so this place has become a new world replacing the previous world, and I cannot leave here."

"The cramped space, the tedious life, the dangerous work. I really admire you for being able to love all these words. But I know how you were a spoiled child, who grew up with care and admiration. You Do you think that after you are no longer distracted by other things, can you really settle in this narrow cage? You must have realized that in a narrow space and restricted freedom, there is nothing to do except to be used like a dog. Having fun and pursuing a life that speaks volumes is what executives are all about."

"Of course the outside world is very good, but there is only one thing that cannot be found outside. When I was living outside, I never knew the contradictions and brilliance of the human heart. It was as if the heart had been sealed in dust and never woke up! "Although her father's evaluation of her was completely correct, Ryoko knew that her father must have some kind of fundamental mistake.

"Are you such a stupid person, Yoshiko. Is that what I taught you? It's okay to play with executives, but it's ridiculous if you treat them like normal people. What kind of person is an executive ?It is a socially recognized murderous beast. Because good people can't do the work of executing criminals, they need the existence of collared beasts like them. You can use dogs for entertainment, but how can you really want to be with beasts? "

"If I really thought this way before, then I have to cast aside myself. It is really chilling to make a definition without understanding others. From your father's point of view, I am also something that you can manipulate. But I am Won't leave here, if I have a quest, it's to see how these admittedly murderous beasts make me feel ashamed. Because they're not beasts, they're people more human than I am."

"The executive officer is a tool, a social dead person." The father denied Liangzi in short and indifferent words, "You can do any job, but you can't degrade yourself to a status that is not human. Indeed, people should Equality. But potential criminals are not human."

Yoshiko felt chilled, she finally understood how low the social status of the executives was, and how they were evaluated in the hearts of others.Knowing how a person identified early in life as a potential criminal is branded and treated accordingly.

They are not human... Is it possible to say such cruel words?But most people think so.

However, don't they know that the guarantee of their safe life comes from these potential criminals whom they despise.It was the executive officer who was at the forefront to protect their safety.

"This is for you. The cabinet has the authority to call the executive officer." Father handed a magnetic card of authority to her, "Now I call you and give you time to think. After all, I hope you can really change your mind and not be forced to leave .”

……

...

With the authority of a cabinet official, the doors of all institutions in Tokyo are open to her.

"that power."

After Liangzi walked out of the gate of the Public Security Bureau, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion in a low voice.

Power can fill many vacancies.To protect something dear to her that she was powerless to protect.

Now she is a powerless person without any power. If she can't even protect herself, how can she protect others?

"'The power that wants to protect from harm what it wants to protect.'

I heard K say this in the Flying Fish Club. K is now a person who is enough to be a teacher. K didn't turn into a monster like me.

SnowQueen can't take K away.Rather let the robin get the K.Everything else doesn't matter.

I will send the most beautiful flowers to you.

I was born tosmother you with flowers.

The words on the card were originally my heart for K.What a sarcasm. "

The journal mentions a club called Flying Fish.

Liangzi went there after leaving the Public Security Bureau. She understood that the most important thing was the specimen incident, but when she was in a state of confusion, she knew exactly what to do.So she took the Dominator to the Flying Fish Club.

It was a remote bar, Ryoko had never been to such a chaotic place.

In the dark alleys, there are dirty old beggars, and unscrupulous teenagers and girls who have dyed their hair blue, green and green in quite avant-garde clothes. There are muscular middle-aged women chasing disobedient children and cursing all the way.

This is an abandoned area, where some people without household registration and unregistered status live.Ryoko was taught by teachers since she was a child that abandoned areas are full of dangers.

When you actually come to this kind of place, although it is dirty and messy, it doesn't feel so scary.

Because they are the same people as herself, Yoshiko has a certain respect for this unique way of life.

She walked along the dark and spacious alleyway, until a creature she had only seen in textbooks appeared in her field of vision, and she took a few steps back in shock.

The creature in front of her had gray and sparse fur. Although it was skinny, it had a huge skeleton. The bright red moss hidden in the fur made Ryoko feel very uncomfortable.One of its eyeballs was dull, the other glowed a piercing pale green, and its face was oddly distorted, too.

It's a cat.But the cat in the textbook is soft and clean.This one seems to be very dirty, so it has a skin disease. I don't know how much torture it has gone through to become this terrible appearance.

But it matches this place, and the people here also exude a dark atmosphere that matches it.

The only one who is incompatible with this place is Ryoko.

Glowing jet-black hair, soft skin, and an undamaged expression.Total heresy in this dark world.

The cat opened its mouth and let out a hoarse cry. It shook its body and walked towards Liangzi.

After seeing the acne on its body, the large peeling dark red skin, and the bright red cat moss on the skin, Ryoko didn't know what to do.

It must not want to be like this.

She bent down and held out trembling fingers, but she couldn't really stroke its poor gray fur.

After repeating this several times, she couldn't touch it.

The cat walked around her slowly, and walked up to her with an arrogant look that saw through the hypocrisy of human beings.

Yoshiko didn't know why she felt ashamed.

"Have you ever seen a real cat?" someone said.

Without noticing that there was someone behind her, Ryoko suddenly turned her head.

The one who spoke was a young man in his thirties, half of his face was covered by his hair, and there was a faint redness in his brown eyes looking at her.

It is prosthetic eye.

"It's not sick now." The other party explained as if she knew what she was worried about. "It was ten times uglier when it was adopted than it is now. Of course, it can only be remedied."

"It's very proud." Liangzi straightened up and said, "I'm not afraid of it getting dirty, I just think it doesn't like being approached by people."

"It was hurt by people and grew up, so it is completely understandable that it has no way to trust or get close to humans. I am the owner here." The club owner didn't mind the cat's ugliness and held it in his arms. "What are you here for? Anyway, let's talk slowly, I happen to be free."

The author has something to say:
