"After boarding the train, I just wanted to find a stable job to survive. So I was assigned to this role, According to the conductor's words, I must ensure the fairness of the transactions,"

"So... even if you trade something with me, as long as the scale shows inequality, I cannot trade with you, unless, I give up some things to help you balance the scales,"

"But doing so would set a precedent, and this world suffers not from scarcity, but from inequality. The hierarchical system on this train is very clear... I can please those higher up, but I absolutely cannot cater to those of the same rank,"

"Otherwise, others will think I'm unfair. That would be an unfair trade,"

"And my duty is to ensure absolute fairness, as the conductor has repeatedly instructed,"
