Night fell, and Herta entered that strange dream as she always did.
In the dream, Lina had been arrested as well.
But unlike in reality, the Chu Mu in the dream was far from composed.
He was pessimistic about Lina's fate. He believed that, at the very least, she would be convicted of manslaughter and face a minimum of three years in prison.
Given Lina's status as a refugee from the Southern Region, a court dominated by citizens of the Northern Region was very likely to reject circumstantial evidence.
Lina would most likely be convicted of murder and sentenced to death.
Herta urged the Chu Mu in the dream to be more optimistic and trust the forces she had outside.

"Of course there are ways. But you're locked up in here and can't contact anyone outside. How are you going to direct your subordinates?"
Herta instinctively wanted to say that she did not need to direct them. Kafka and the others would act on their own.
But then she suddenly remembered that Kafka and the others did not exist in the dream world.

But Kafka did not give up.
First, she sent people to distribute some leaflets around the city, getting residents talking about the Lina Incident.
But these small-scale discussions
