Chapter 1

I lay in my cell, waiting for the final judgment.My husband, Daniel Shaw, entered in silence with the execution officers.The moment one of them unlocked the shackles on my body, I gathered every ounce of strength and hurled myself toward the wall.Daniel lunged forward and barely managed to grab me, but I still slammed into it.Blood ran down my cheek and dripped onto the floor.Daniel yanked me up by the hair, his movements rough and merciless. His voice trembled as he demanded,"You want to die that badly? You'd rather die than tell the truth, is that it?!"Even so, I forced myself to lift my head and meet his gaze."Yes. You'll never get a single word out of me."The eyes that were once filled with love now held nothing but seething hatred.Despite trying to restrain himself, he finally lost control and slapped me across the face."Take her up."The two execution officers immediately stepped forward, hoisted me up like a dead animal, and dragged me toward the Judgment Platform.Th

"A steel probe has to be driven through the spine and into the brain. Once it connects to the central nervous system, the pain is beyond anything most people can endure."And the voltage is unstable. It could kill you at any moment."He paused, as if offering me one last chance."There's still time to turn back. If you're willing to tell the truth, I'll file for the proceedings to be halted."A bitter smile tugged at my lips, bloody foam spilling from the corner of my mouth."I won't talk."The veins at Daniel's temple bulged, but he swallowed his anger and said nothing.Instead, he personally fastened the restraints around my arms, legs, and torso, securing me firmly to the platform. Then he picked up the steel probe gleaming with cold light and pressed its tip against the center of my spine."Ah!"The probe pierced my skin, bored into the bone, and tore through my nerves.The agony was so intense that I nearly blacked out."Faith! Faith!"My mother's voice rang out from below, shril

Tears streamed down my face, but I couldn't say a word.The violent current surged through my nerves, and the memory shifted to the second scene.On the screen, Anne, my sister-in-law, and I were decorating our new home together."Faith! Doesn't this vase look perfect here? My taste is way better than my brother's, isn't it?"Anne fluttered around me like a cheerful butterfly, chattering nonstop.Then she mysteriously pulled out a small box.Inside was a beautiful necklace."Faith, I bought this with the allowance I saved up myself. I hope you and my brother stay happy forever!"My mother-in-law, Emily, squeezed my hand and passed me a wedding card with a generous check tucked inside, her smile brighter than ever."We're family now. If Daniel ever gives you a hard time, you tell me. I'll set him straight."The whole family huddled together happily and took that photograph.As Daniel watched the laughter and warmth on the giant screen, tears blurred his vision.He rushed forward and gra

She lay in a pool of blood.Her clothes had been torn away, her arms and legs brutally shattered. She was barely recognizable as a human being.Yet when I pushed open the wardrobe door, she still used her final breath to whisper to me,"Faith... live... Run..."Those were the last words Anne ever spoke to me.The memory froze there, cut short by my overwhelming resistance and unbearable pain.The entire square fell silent.Then came a tidal wave of outrage.No one had expected that even after being tortured into such a horrific state, Anne was still trying to protect me."Oh my God! She was dying, and she was still telling her to run!""This Faith is unbelievable! Anne gave everything for her, and this is how she repays her?""How does someone like that deserve to live?"With no way to vent their rage on me, some of the crowd turned their fury on my parents instead."You raised a daughter like this! You're no better!"They began beating my mother and father.My parents could only curl

"Mr. Shaw, we can't continue!"One of the doctors shouted, "The damage to her brain and spine is too severe! The connection is becoming more unstable by the second. We can't extract any more memories!"Daniel acted as though he hadn't heard a word.By now, he realized that there seemed to be a reason behind everything I had done.A reason that drove me to this point."Faith, what are you waiting for? Tell me."He crouched down in front of me and asked with genuine seriousness.But it was too late.My brain had already suffered catastrophic damage.Blood and saliva trickled from the corners of my mouth, and all I could offer him was a vacant, foolish smile.The sight of me like that made Daniel reach out, intending to release me from the Memory Extraction System.The doctors immediately stopped him."She's not going to survive!""Even if you take her off now, she'll die!""We should use the auxiliary extraction unit and drive the system at maximum power.""At least... at least we might

Static crackled across the giant screen.Several long seconds passed before the image finally stabilized.Nearly everyone in the square held their breath.No one even dared blink.At last, as my gaze in the memory slowly lifted upward, a man in a tailored suit stepped into view.He wore gold-rimmed glasses and carried himself with the calm, refined air of an intellectual.The moment people realized who he was, the entire square fell silent.A few seconds later, shocked cries erupted from the crowd."Oh my God! It's the doctor!""The killer is the chief physician!"The man was none other than the chief physician who oversaw the Memory Extraction System from beginning to end.The same man who just persuaded Daniel to use the auxiliary extraction helmet.Daniel looked as though he had been struck by lightning.He stood frozen for several seconds before suddenly spinning around and glaring at the doctor beside the control console.The doctor's face was equally stunned.The clipboard slippe

"Mr. Shaw, I need to tell you something. It looks like there may have been a problem with the memory extraction."Daniel frowned."What do you mean? The doctor has a perfect alibi for the night of the murders."He was performing a highly complex brain surgery at the time. There are at least a dozen doctors and nurses who can verify it."The crowd in the square had still been gossiping about the supposed affair between the doctor and me, with many already preparing to leave.But those words were broadcast across the square through the loudspeaker Daniel had forgotten to turn off.A stunned silence followed.People began exchanging bewildered looks.The doctor had an alibi.The revelation hit Daniel like a sledgehammer.If that was true, then the memory in which I identified him as the killer might have been deliberately planted.Perhaps I knew I would eventually be subjected to memory extraction and had somehow manipulated the evidence in advance.But why?Why would I use my own death t

"The handwriting... it's a match. We can confirm it belongs to the doctor."A wave of shock swept across the square.The police opened the journal in full view of the cameras.The first page was dated a year earlier—the same day Anne attended an academic conference."I saw her at the conference today. Anne Shaw. The moment she smiled, I couldn't look away."I found out where she lives. I followed her all day today. She went to the library, then a café, and finally home. I've recorded every detail of her routine."I tried to get closer to her, but she rejected me. It hurt more than I expected."Page after page revealed the doctor's descent into obsession.The journal meticulously documented how he stalked Anne, monitored her daily life, and invaded her privacy.What began as admiration gradually twisted into an unhealthy fixation.And when Anne rejected him, that fixation curdled into resentment and hatred.The livestream exploded.Comments flooded in at such a speed they were impossibl

"Three days at the earliest. The authorities are cracking down hard right now. We can't afford to take risks.""What did the hospital say?""They're pushing for delivery and offering a high price, but we need to be careful."Daniel's hands froze over the keyboard because he recognized those voices.They belonged to his parents.He suppressed his shock and forced himself to keep listening.The further the recordings progressed, the more conversations like these emerged.Bit by bit, the outline of a vast organ trafficking operation came into focus.And at the center of it all were his parents.A chill spread through Daniel's entire body.It felt as though he fell into an icy abyss.Part of him wanted to shut off the recording immediately, to pretend he never heard any of it.Then Anne's voice suddenly rang out from the speakers, filled with outrage."How could you do something like this? It's illegal! It's murder!"Her voice trembled."I'm going to the police! I'm going to tell them ever

Everyone wanted to know whether there was another breakthrough in the case.Daniel faced the cameras and spoke slowly and clearly."There is something important I need to tell everyone. The killer wasn't the doctor. It was my parents."The entire square erupted.Reporters surged forward in a frenzy, only to be held back by the police.Daniel continued."My wife, Faith Dean, was seeking justice for my sister from beginning to end. She gave her life to expose a vast organ trafficking network. This is the proof."He held up the listening device."It contains the complete recordings. It proves everything."He handed the device over to the police.Then the recordings were played publicly.As the conversations echoed across the square through the loudspeakers, shock swept through the crowd.Those who cursed me and beat my parents, all lowered their heads in shame.Even the families of the victims who tortured me in their desperation fell to their knees in the square, unable to rise.My paren
