Chapter 369 – [Mars SimCity Build It]
The day dawned again. Of course, on Mars, day and night were similar, although the amount of Earth was slightly different. Because there is a time difference between sunrise and sunset.
Reyes, Ruri, and Shion gathered at Horizon’s captain’s office.
The three of them gathered because there was a lot to discuss about an important bill.
“Hello, Mr. Kim Young-ho. You have a lot of trouble early in the morning. Are there any inconveniences?”
“Ah, yes. It’s okay. The bill I sent you…”
“Yes, I already received it. I was satisfied with many things, but I saw a lot of things to fix, so I prepared this place.”
Law is a rule that human beings need to live. If you don’t make it, there will be various problems in human society.
There was a reason to resolve this matter by listening to the opinions of many people, not Zion alone.
“After reviewing it, it wasn’t bad. However, it is necessary to delete parts such as subsistence crimes.”
“Yes, food, clothing and shelter are guaranteed, but…”
“Yes, food, clothing and shelter will be basically guaranteed on Mars. However, since there will be no absolutes in the world, there will definitely be problems.”
“I don’t know if there are people who take other people’s food, clothing, and shelter and sell them. Right?”
“If the most basic things are taken away, there is a high probability that a crime will occur.”
“Yes, that’s why I deliberately left behind the crime called subsistence.”
“Of course it is. But that is only a story when it is difficult to establish public order.”
Shion was thinking of two police officers, but on the other hand, he was thinking of two drones equipped with artificial intelligence.
If necessary, just talk to the drone and it will solve the problem, but there was no problem.
Not knowing is not a sin, but not wanting to know is a sin. On the one hand, it would leave room for tolerance, but it was not going to leave a crime in the name of subsistence.
“In the punishment part, I’ll put it in more depth. Because human sins cannot be repaid in a simple way.”
“What I said last time…”
“Yes, physically, in a world where limbs are really pulled out and torture is commonplace in the cyber world, even if it means destroying the self and reprogramming it again, such a thing is not tolerated in the society I created.”
Of course, if that was a real society, there would be various problems.
There is such a problem in the movie Minority Report. Can a suspect be held accountable for a crime he did not commit when he sees the future and prevents a crime? That is the thesis.
But it’s different. It is a matter of punishment for what has not been done and what has already been done.
If you commit a sin, you have to correct it no matter what you do. Even if it didn’t kill me, that was.
Of course, in the case of the death penalty, beating the head was not the next thing, it was the worst. The most appropriate target.
“The rest is fine. We have also reinforced the gaps in the Constitution of the Republic of Korea. Considering that, it seems that future crimes can be sufficiently prevented.”
“But human beings will eventually find a gap to advance. Even if I try…”
“Yes, I already know that.”
It is human nature to find a little gap and escape through it.
That is why, no matter how complicated the law is, there will be people who get out of it.
But because of that, Zion decided to make an additional bill later.
“Let’s do this. My husband, as the Great Demon King, judges and thinks it is not, the death penalty. Let’s roughly add such a bill.”
“That…….”
It was possible because he was not a human but a transcendent.
In the case of human versus transcendent, not human versus human. Furthermore, the name of the Great Demon King, who had already blown up several countries, was huge.
Even if there is something to discard later, it was good to use it now. Because it is natural to leave the problems of the future to the future.
“I know there are many opinions. But basically, it’s left to the human conscience, so I’m not tackling it separately.”
“Conscience… Is it?”
“Can you condone fraud or theft?”
“No”
“Can you condone murder or rape?”
“No”
“Then, can you tolerate theft of a human who is about to die of starvation stealing food from others?
“That’s something we’ll have to figure out, but to some extent.”
“Yes, in the end, as it is, it is the result of human conscience. Human duty that humans can feel inside. That is the reference point of the law.”
The most important issue was human survival. That is, it is a matter of life.
Just as the worst has no intention of being forgiven for killing others, it was an issue that had to be overcome with enough care about life.
Of course, in further development, death was only a phenomenon. Delta Castle has a close relationship with the Death Lord, so even if there is a murder case, it is solved by listening to the story of the deceased.
What mattered most was that he was a human being.
“Me and my husband are people who will leave someday. It’s only natural that we should try to make it perfect by adding little by little.”
“It must be difficult”
“Yes, that’s why you have to work hard. Of course, other personnel will be added gradually, so you don’t have to suffer alone.”
“Hmm…… How come you must be having a harder time than when you were in Korea.”
“It’s a decision on the bill, and it’s natural. Did you really think it would be easy?”
“No. It would be better than unanimously agreeing to raise their salaries.”
“Have a conscience. Then me and my husband will support Mr. Kim Young-ho until the end.”
What is needed to enact legislation is conscience, not anything else.
Conscience was needed more than anything else when enacting laws necessary to build and help society by enduring such conditions without receiving money from others or taking advantage of one’s own.
“…I understand. At least I will try to live up to your expectations.”
“When you say that, it puts my mind at ease.”
“And among the migrants, there are two of my juniors, can I join them in the work?”
“If you have the confidence to do well, you can do it. Think of your husband and answer clearly.”
“Yes, I’m sure”
“That’s it”
The name of the Great Demon King was left as a trauma to Earthlings. It may not happen in one or two generations, but at least in the current generation.
It was only natural that the worst name above all else remained an absolute rule.
“I would like to ask for more. Mr. Kim Yeong-ho”
“Yes, I understand”
The legal part was also gradually progressing.
* * *
Hearing Ye-jin’s prophecy, Baek-ri prepared to leave for Russia after having had some time to prepare.
Of course, on the contrary, Yejin will return to Horizon. Because Horizon on Mars is safer than here.
“See you later, I can’t guarantee when I’ll see you, but…”
“Are you going to look at me with a smile then?”
“Okay, don’t press me too hard.”
The news that Baekri sent through Ryusang’s second-class listing was delivered to each country.
Whether it was because of that, or because of Baekri’s name, there were quite intense reactions from around the world. Of course, there was a feeling that it was off topic, but it was not that there were no countries that helped a little bit with the news that they could not get help from Baekri.
No matter how much it lacks, if you can show condescension after helping a little bit, the troops sent with logic were passed on to Baekri. Taking time, Bai Li slowly reviewed it.
“In Korea…. Lee Kyung-jin doesn’t seem to be coming.”
Baek-ri’s trust was betrayed in his country. It didn’t stop the 100 li going to Russia, but it didn’t help either.
Lee Gyeong-jin is still only staying in Korea, and he was guarding the place.
But it wasn’t without a harvest either.
[I will definitely accompany the destruction of the US stronghold]
A short problem came to Baek-ri’s cell phone. It was a text message from Lee Kyung-jin.
On the one hand, it seemed to indicate his indolence, but now in the United States, Lee Gyeong-jin’s daughter was studying abroad.
In fact, not going to the United States right away meant that he knew where he was and was enduring enough. I could see that it was rather fortunate that I didn’t go over it blindly like Hibiki did.
However, unlike Korea, good news came from other places.
“In England and Turkey…”
I don’t know about Britain, but Turkey is in the middle of recovering from the collapse of the capital, so the master user there deliberately came over.
Looking at the current situation, Russia’s master users, the Snow Queen, Night Gawain, and Saladin were all in the shape of Moya. It’s unprecedented because an additional hundred li will be added to it.
Three master users gathered in one place! Of course, this is not unheard of in the past, but it is rare in modern times.
“I’ll be back. Say hello to my sister-in-law.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll be back safely.”
“Okay”
Baek-ri boarded a military transport and left for Russia. It was a long journey, but Russia was relatively close from China.
What’s more, even if you go back, it’s only a few hours away. If you are not going to the capital of Russia, but to the forward base right before you.
On the way, Baekri saw a list of countries that had separately provided support. In addition to simply Britain and Turkey, there were quite a lot of support from countries belonging to the European bloc, such as France, Italy, and Germany.
It must have been because he realized the seriousness of the situation, or realized that if Russia was breached, he would be next.
A country that is directly connected to the land rather than the sea has a different sense of crisis. On the other hand, it was not understandable that they supported them.
Wooooo!!!
“I’m landing right now. Prepare for an impact.”
The aircraft vibrated to announce landing. Outside the window, below, a panoramic view of the base where the trenches were dug came into view.
Since the opponent is an enemy species, I don’t know if it will be useful, but it’s better than nothing. Anyway, the transport plane landed and stepped on the land of Russia.
The opponent who met Baekri was a familiar one because he had already seen it often. I don’t know if it was a soldier, but if you are a master user, you can recognize it at a glance.
Russian master user. She was the woman who had been holding the Russian front all this time.
She asked in English fluently.
“I am Sofia Navratilova Raskolnikova. She is also a master user in Russia.”
“It’s called 100 li. Please feel free to call me”
“I heard about what happened in China. I’m sorry about Shuten Doji.”
“Nothing is certain yet. The person in question hasn’t even been found.”
“……Isn’t that optimistic?”
“I don’t think I’ll die easily. The person himself wrote on the first page of his will not to open it if the body wasn’t found.”
On the other hand, Baekri sought the lawyer to deal with Hibiki’s will, but the first page of Hibiki’s will he received from him said various things, but the most important thing was ‘Do not execute the will if the body is not found’.
Hibiki is always missing, not dead. At least until the Chinese stronghold is dug up and his body is identified.
Baek-ri decided to follow his will. Because that’s the last thing he can do.
“Master users from the UK and Turkey will come soon. Support will come from other European countries as well.”
“That’s quite a lot.”
“It’s thanks to you. Someone delivered it with a feeling like a threat…”
“Oh, that was something you had to do, right?”
“Normally I can’t do that. Even a master user has a lot to replace. Who can do that?”
“……Honestly, it’s not that I don’t feel a little bit offended.”
“Anyway, welcome. People who come to save their country can only be welcomed, even if they are from the United States, but we will especially welcome them.”
“Is it still quiet in America?”
“Because they’re busy taking care of their own business.”
“Well…….”
The United States was struggling to deal with the stronghold it had created in New York. At one time, Baekri also received a request for cooperation, but at that time, Baekri stayed in the corner of the room and ignored it, and then went over to China.
In any case, the American thing will go over after the Russian thing is dealt with. Gar-Rekal himself would be there.
“I’ve heard the data from China, but it’s better to hear it from the mouth of the person concerned. Can I ask for an explanation?”
“Yes, of course”
Baek Li was welcomed and entered Russia.
What was to come was going to be pretty tough.
