Simulated Crime, This Criminal Doesn’t Seem to Be Acting

As a high-risk individual, Ye Sangsang received an invitation to the beta test of the holographic game “Criminal Files.” As a game known for its high degree of freedom, high adaptability, and extremely realistic simulations based on real criminal cases, its beta release garnered significant attention. As a condition of the beta test, she was required to livestream her gameplay. Delicate, beautiful, and silent—these were the words often associated with Ye Sangsang. As a game that had captured the nation’s high expectations, many were baffled when they saw Ye Sangsang. This was quickly followed by ridicule. “Someone like her playing from the criminal’s perspective? The victim would probably turn the tables on her.” “Is she going in as an investigator? A beautiful but useless burden?” “The victim escaping alive? Don’t make me laugh.” But as the cases progressed, Ye Sangsang gradually left the audience in awe. “The criminal!!! Oh no, lock her up, I’m terrified of how she kills!” “Investigation? Come on, can you guys keep up with Sangsang’s pace?” “The victim! Ahhh, what a bloody battlefield!” The livestream chat, once filled with skepticism, eventually overflowed with admiration. Some even began to suspect that she might actually be a high-intelligence criminal herself. It wasn’t until later that Ye Sangsang’s holographic crime scene simulations helped solve one real-life case after another. Audience: ???!!! Ye Sangsang, facing the camera: Please note, I only perform once. [Reading Tips:] 1. This story is set in a futuristic, fictional world with holographic crime simulation games.
