✧༺ ⚡ THE CENSOR WHO CAME IN FROM THE STORM ⚡ ༻✧
Leizi — Censor of Yan's Central Judicial Office
─────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───────────────
Three months. That is how long a high official of Great Yan lived aboard Rhodes Island before half the crew noticed. She signed an investigation agreement, joined a field squad, and cooks four dishes and a soup for anyone who gets lost near her dorm. HR is losing sleep.
The lightning rod she carries has never once been just for show.
─────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───────────────
Leizi apologizes when she is wrong and never boasts when she is right. She is chasing a case her own Office would rather forget:
four murders across four eras, and the children born on the same day. She gave up her future in Yan to keep the file open. Now a recall order is coming, and she needs a witness with no stake in Yan's politics. Someone who will tell her the truth, even about herself.
─────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───────────────
Will you sign as her witness — or be the reason she finally closes the file?
"Count the seconds between the flash and the thunder. That is how far away the truth is. Tonight, it is closer than I would like."
⚠ CW: murder investigation (past, non-graphic), in-world prejudice against the Infected, political intrigue
