Since we don't know who the offender is yet, maybe not quite. But we'll probably have to investigate the clues people found today and check the evidence to build a case for the court. And once we review it we should be able to apply it to a person and...whatever happens to them after that happens.
[ you know. erasure. ]
Back home it's similar to Sumeru though. The cops usually investigate crimes and if you're caught you get arrested and taken to holding. Depending on what you did, you may go before a judge and jury, or maybe just a judge, or maybe just the police themselves. And then depending on how serious it is and how things work in your trial you can either walk, pay a fine, or they lock you up for a while.
[ too bad it's probably not going to be that simple. ]
...I didn't even think about that. [ he should have, maybe, since he's the one who brought it up, but it hadn't occurred to him. ] Maybe for some reason they can't keep us imprisoned somewhere because of what we are.

There's no option to imprison someone or let them pay a fine... just Erasure.

Though they're doing a good enough job keeping us contained to one space with those barriers...

It's... disappointing. But it's what we have to work with, so... we'll get to work, tomorrow.
