A Narrow Escape

"Did you say… that all the five victims were prostitutes?" Lin Sanjiu pulled her gaze away from the newspaper and stared at the young man. 

"Yes, I did not get it wrong!" emphasized the young man before he turned his focus to the large headlines in the newspaper. He was perplexed. "I did not lie to you. It's historically accurate. Nevertheless, this is a simulation after all. Once extraneous people enter the equation, things will definitely be affected. You can't blame me for that…"

Not only was one of the victims a couturier, but the simulation also did not seem like it was going to end any time soon even after five deaths.
