Memorial Air Chain Cross-Examination / 纪念空气链质询机制

Memorial Air Chain Cross-Examination is the pressure mechanism for a memorial, voice, or archive proof object that survived field custody and now has to answer hostile questions from more than one desk.

The mechanism begins after a physically moved proof object becomes useful enough that inspection, sponsor, editor, archive, fan, or artist/refusal claimants all want to decide what it means. A proof packet that merely arrived is not stable. It must be cross-examined: who carried it, who signed it, who can replay it, who can brand it, who can publicly witness it, and who becomes liable if the air copy contradicts the archive.

This is not a fixed-turn package. It opens only from contested state: a memorial-air, voice, public receipt, archive copy, black-box checksum, fan oxygen receipt, or equivalent route asset is present; at least two claimant factions are active; and a carrier, witness, editor source, or explicit absence can mutate future play.

Design gap

监察影子组羁押机制 proves that a proof object can cross the floor. 举证负荷再分配线 proves that successful proof later needs a holder. Memorial Rights Contempt Storyline proves that grief can stabilize broadcast reality while violating rights.

The missing playable layer is cross-examination. The current corpus can move proof and assign burden, but it still needs a concrete loop where the same memorial-air chain is tested by inspector admissibility, sponsor stop-loss, editor source control, and public witness legitimacy at the same time.

State-triggered entry

Open this mechanism only when all of the following are true:

entry_state:
  trigger_kind: state_pressure
  memorial_or_voice_or_archive_air_copy_present: true
  source_chain_known_or_contested: true
  claimant_factions_count_min: 2
  carrier_witness_editor_source_or_explicit_absence_present: true
  affected_route_asset_or_proof_burden_present: true
  no_fixed_turn_trigger: true

Valid proof objects include:

  • memorial air copy;
  • voice custody receipt;
  • archive docket copy;
  • black-box checksum;
  • fan oxygen public receipt;
  • refusal/consent printout;
  • shadow evidence transfer packet;
  • returned evidence from 导出证据回流分岔线.

The mechanism fails as content if the proof is simply accepted because a powerful character says so.

Cross-examination row

Every active case should expose a row with stable fields:

memorial_air_chain_row:
  proof_object: <stable object id>
  original_relief: <what the proof already protected or unlocked>
  current_chain_state: chain_ready | inspector_oath | sponsor_countercopy | editor_checksum_mask | public_air_receipt | split_escrow | chain_perjury | false_air_owner | recovery_only
  carrier_or_absence: cen_wei | lin_qiao | ai_sheng_relay | fan_delegate | editor_source | archive_clerk | explicit_absent | equivalent
  claimant_factions:
    - inspector_or_archive
    - sponsor_stop_loss
    - editor_black_box
    - fan_public
    - artist_refusal
  required_answer: admissibility | ownership | replay_permission | public_receipt | checksum_source | proof_burden_holder
  affected_route_asset: <route asset id>
  risk_if_ignored: sponsor_countercopy_first | chain_perjury | false_air_owner | carrier_bought_out | hostile_relay | recovery_only

State machine

StateMeaningRequired playable consequence
chain_readyThe air proof has arrived and at least two claimants can interrogate it.Cross-examination choices become available.
inspector_oathThe proof is seated through archive/inspection admissibility.Legibility rises while inspection heat, bureau debt, lawful-only routing, or carrier risk rises.
sponsor_countercopySponsor introduces a branded, settlement, or naming-right version of the air.Immediate stop-loss pressure may fall; contract capture, false-owner pressure, or public distrust rises.
editor_checksum_maskEditor or black-box authority preserves the proof by masking source identity.Voice/archive continuity improves while edit debt and source ambiguity rise.
public_air_receiptFan, historian, pirate, or audience witness chain validates the air copy publicly.Private capture becomes harder while sponsor pressure, public exposure, or relay risk rises.
split_escrowMore than one claimant receives a limited copy and none can cleanly own it.False owner pressure drops; future play becomes lawful-only, public-only, costlier, or contradiction-pending.
protected_chain_witnessCarrier, fan delegate, relay, editor source, or archive clerk survives as route asset/follower.Future small-chain or testimony rites unlock with payroll/protection cost.
carrier_bought_outSponsor, inspector, editor, or production desk privately captures the witness.A future branch becomes captured, sponsor-only, or recovery-only.
chain_perjuryThe current aired claim contradicts the chain badly enough that someone can prove a lie.A failure event arms and future proof burden becomes harder.
false_air_ownerA wrong claimant hardens as owner of the memorial or voice air.Recovery needs counter-receipt, public witness, injunction, or witness rescue.
recovery_onlyClean success is no longer available for this proof object.Only costly recovery branches remain.

Branch contract

Branch A — Inspector oath

The player assigns 韩砚霜, archive authority, an inspector oath, a corridor carrier, or an archive clerk to answer admissibility.

Expected result:

  • inspector_oath or protected_chain_witness becomes durable;
  • air_chain_legibility, archive_signature_legitimacy, proof_legibility, or custody_clarity improves;
  • inspection_heat, bureau_favor_debt, runner_risk, lawful_only_route, or proof_burden rises.

Branch B — Sponsor countercopy settlement

The player lets 沈洛, sponsor stop-loss, or a settlement desk attach a payable version of the memorial air.

Expected result:

  • immediate sponsor_stop_loss_pressure or slot pressure may decrease;
  • sponsor_countercopy, contract_capture, or carrier_bought_out becomes durable;
  • public_receipt_distrust, false_owner_pressure, proof_burden, or future recovery cost rises.

Branch C — Editor checksum mask

The player lets 白鸦, editor custody, or a black-box checksum protect the proof while masking the carrier or source.

Expected result:

  • editor_checksum_mask becomes durable;
  • voice_integrity, continuity_hazard, or witness_retaliation_risk improves;
  • edit_debt, source_ambiguity, archive_debt, or public_receipt_distrust rises.

Branch D — Public air receipt

The player lets 郁蓝, 艾笙, fan oxygen witnesses, pirate relay, or public historian receipts validate the memorial air.

Expected result:

  • public_air_receipt or protected_chain_witness becomes durable;
  • public_receipt_legitimacy, fan_oxygen_balance, or private_capture_blocked improves;
  • sponsor_stop_loss_pressure, public_exposure, fan_oxygen_liability, relay_custody_risk, or inspection_heat rises.

Branch E — Split escrow

The player refuses to let any single faction own the air and instead splits the chain among lawful, public, and editor surfaces.

Expected result:

  • split_escrow becomes durable;
  • false_owner_pressure, custody_gap, or proof_burden_default decreases;
  • handler_burden, future_recovery_cost, source_ambiguity, or route narrowness rises.

Branch F — Suppress, false-clean, or abandon

The player hides the contradiction, treats the chain as clean, refuses to name a witness, or lets a claimant interrogate first.

Expected result:

  • chain_perjury, false_air_owner, carrier_bought_out, hostile_relay, or recovery_only becomes durable;
  • one immediate pressure may pause;
  • proof burden, archive debt, sponsor capture, public distrust, fan resentment, hostile witness pressure, or route blocking rises.

Follower and route-asset outcomes

This mechanism deliberately creates missable NPC/follower outcomes:

  • Cen Wei can become protected_chain_witness, carrier_bought_out, hostile_leak_source, or explicit_absent.
  • 林乔 can become a repeatable route_asset for small proof deliveries or a captured carrier who requires rescue.
  • 艾笙 can become a protected relay witness, a risky public bridge, or a hostile child-voice leak if used without protection.
  • A fan delegate can become a public receipt carrier, but can also turn into a retaliation surface.
  • An editor source can survive as masked witness, but increases source ambiguity and archive debt.

High-rank handlers may defend those outcomes, but may not replace them.

Counter contract

Every resolved branch must mutate at least three counters or durable states. At least one must be relief and at least one must be cost.

Primary counters and states:

  • air_chain_legibility
  • custody_clarity
  • custody_gap
  • proof_legibility
  • proof_burden
  • voice_integrity
  • archive_signature_legitimacy
  • archive_debt
  • inspection_heat
  • bureau_favor_debt
  • sponsor_stop_loss_pressure
  • contract_capture
  • public_receipt_legitimacy
  • public_receipt_distrust
  • fan_oxygen_balance
  • fan_oxygen_liability
  • fan_oxygen_resentment
  • edit_debt
  • source_ambiguity
  • relay_custody_risk
  • runner_risk
  • handler_burden
  • false_owner_pressure
  • future_recovery_cost

Non-goals

  • Not a fixed-turn cross-exam scene.
  • Not a legal lore page.
  • Not a free cleanup for memorial, voice, archive, fan, sponsor, or editor pressure.
  • Not a high-rank authority shortcut.
  • Not valid unless the proof object, witness/carrier/source, claimant pressure, and route asset state all matter.
