"Captain Mark Carls, is there anything else you want to say?"
Upon hearing Shen Congfei's words, the half-bodied figure on the ground stared blankly at the blue sky.
These words stirred its memories.
Within its recollection, those should have been the words of a judge during a trial.
When I was still human, I fought fiercely in the courtroom.
But this judge disregarded all the evidence and doubt I presented on the plaintiff's stand, merely announcing the cold verdict at the end of the trial.
Aquitted.
These two words weighed heavily on my heart as I watched the suspect saunter by, a smug grin on his face.
The despair I felt in the face of darkness transformed into a raging fury.
Luckily, as a lieutenant in the Special Forces of the Alliance, I had an edge in experience.
Only one day later, I made the headlines.
The family member of a traffic accident victim had shot and killed the acquitted suspect.
I didn't run, but remained at the scene to be arrested.
