It is difficult to treat the < at the moment because there is not enough to punish them.

This is because there is a lack of to punish them.

< and >, it is doubtful whether they can declare their ownership of them.

After all, the <> no longer exists, and the island where the <> is located is of unknown affiliation.

In other words, it is just a matter of "picking up something that had fallen".

Therefore, we have to denounce what can be regarded as a criminal act according to the laws of the world.

"The most obvious case is that of the use of <, a <>, on believers. ......"

Makina III said.

"That's still weak. They want proof that <> was used. ......"

Tomax Bartmann says, and Chelle voices her opinion.

"You are in possession of a <>, aren't you?"

"No, possession alone is weak. We need to catch him using it.

Tomax explained that it would be better to catch him in the act.

"It's difficult, isn't it, the laws of our time ......?"

Chelle said that it was simpler during the <>.

Jin D. commented on this.

"Maybe it's because the rulers had much more power back then than now.　Besides, it was wartime.

Jin D. added that during wartime, there were special measures such as giving command of the military to some of the rulers.

"Certainly, there were such things. ......"

I'd love to hear what Chel has to say about those days, but right now we are discussing measures against the <.

"But the magic tools of suggestion they are using were stolen from our base.

Can you prove it?

"Yes, I can. I can prove that. The magic tools belonging to the base must have had their own model numbers engraved on them.

Tomax Bartmann was pleased with this information.

"That's information that would give us an advantage.

Tomax Bartmann continued, "But we need one or two more reasons to go in.

At this point, Makina III spoke up.

"I don't know about all of them, but the < I met were definitely taking <. Can we step in and call it a medical examination or treatment?"

"That might be difficult. If she collapsed due to addiction, that is.

I see.

* * * * * *

Jin, who was attending the meeting through Jin D, chuckled.

"I think again. I think again, the right way is troublesome and inefficient."

>.

Until now, Jin and his team have not been doing things in a very public way, such as investigating in secret and taking countermeasures in secret.

This is why we have the < and .

This time, however, they are taking a completely orthodox approach in order to fulfill the request of Chell and Hearn, the messengers from the past.

"You might want to think about that.

Jin reminded them that this would only be done in case of emergency.

* * * *

< was taking a long time, as they were having trouble putting things together.

"Well, why don't you summarize the illegal activities being conducted by the once?　From there, I think we can see what we should do.

Ilmina Ratkin suggested.

"Yes, that might be a good idea."

"Yes, that would be good."

Tomax Bartman and Jin D. agreed.

"Well then, let's go to ......."

Deus ex machina III explains as he counts.

1. was stolen from the .

2. stole from . 3.

3. he makes his followers take <.

4. brainwashes his followers with .

5. he exploits unjustly.

The fifth one may be in a gray area, though.

If the donor is willing to make the donation, it can't be said to be unfair.

But now we see how to do it," says Tomax Bartmann.

"First of all, the <> thing. First of all, <>, which can be denounced by finding out where it is grown. This could be proven by finding out where the original seeds came from, since <> is not commonly distributed. Also, we can accuse them of growing drug ingredients rather than stealing them."

"I see."

"Since the <> is inscribed with a >, it should be easy to prove that it is stolen. In this case, we can also add the fact that it was found and used without permission."

"Yes, that's right."

Tomax Bartmann, showing the dignity of a top administrator, presents one method after another to gather evidence for denouncing the <.

"Thirdly, ...... Ratkin, is there any way to tell that you are <> addicted?"

"Yes, there is. If the smoke is inhaled, there is some mild lung damage ...... and some impairment of the lungs, and if it is swallowed, there is some irritation of the stomach wall. All of these are very slight."

Here's where Chelle speaks up.

"There is another way."

"Mister Chell, what is it?

Brain waves.

Brain waves?

Brain waves? <

I see. ......

"I see. Yes. But the jumps are mainly in the areas of willpower and emotion. That is to say, there are also bands that don't bounce.

I see, so the spectrum of brain waves is unnatural.

That's what I'm getting at.

This is very good information.

Tomax Bartmann and his colleagues thanked Chelle.

"Good. I'll build it."

This is where Jin D comes in.

"...... did you understand what I just explained to you?

Chelle, surprised, nodded her head.

"Yes. I'll take care of it."

"That's what a <> is for. ......"

Anyway, it looks like we'll be able to arrest the <> now.

* * * * * *

Tomax Bartmann continued.

"...... and number four. This is the hard part."

"Indeed. ...... Mister Chell, is there any way to recognize a brain that has been subjected to <>?"

At Jin D's question, Chel nodded her head.

"Yes, there is. ...... This also relates to the brain. The brain that has been subjected to < will be less active in certain parts of the brain. Specifically, a part of the <."

"I see. Do you have a device to measure this?"

"Yes, I do. I also have that in my memory. ......

Okay, tell me about that later. I'll build it.

Okay.

"Mmm, Ratkin, that's brilliant. I've compiled a list of illegal activities, just like you said, so it's easier to understand how to deal with them."

Thank you, sir.

Tomax Bartman's compliment made Illumina Latkin a little embarrassed.

This made it easier to understand the current situation and to discuss how to deal with it.
