Quote-Bearing Custody Return Storyline / 带价羁押归还线

Quote-Bearing Custody Return is a route-pressure storyline about a returned object that tries to carry an old stability quote into future play.

It sits between 清算报价召回线, 稳播精算师 Storyline, and K-404 羁押错配终端线. The old quote was not necessarily wrong. The returned object was not necessarily fake. The problem is that the object and the quote no longer prove each other unless the producer pays, exposes, splits, or defaults the carrier price.

Gap this storyline fills

The current corpus can already answer three adjacent questions:

• can a prior stability quote be recalled;
• can K-404 expose a custody mismatch;
• can 梁雾 price a public version.

The remaining playable gap is the handoff between them. A route asset may return from K-404 with a fan receipt, checksum, seal, waiver, copy, refusal, or fragment. A future route may cite a clearance quote through that object. Without this storyline, the game can accidentally treat the returned object as a free carrier for the quote.

This storyline makes the carrier price explicit.

Primary playable question

When a custody object returns carrying a stability quote, who owns the price of using it again: K-404’s index, 梁雾’s table, public proof, sponsor money, inspector hold, editor checksum, or nobody?

Every answer stabilizes one surface and damages another.

Entry state

The storyline opens from state pressure, not a numbered turn, chapter quota, or generic visit.

Story beats

Beat 1 — The returned object speaks with someone else’s price

带价归还案卷 enters play when a returned object is about to be used as proof for a stability quote.

Playable output:

• source quote and public version are named;
• returned object and object kind are named;
• K-404 index state is visible;
• 梁雾 state or explicit absence is visible;
• carrier price before-state and claimant pressure are recorded;
• default risk is clear.

Beat 2 — The producer chooses who bears the carrier price

The player assigns 带价归还听证.

Assignable slots must include source quote, returned object, K-404 index, 梁雾 state or absence, apparent claimant, rival claimant or absence, proof anchor, handler, support surface, selected posture, and price.

Beat 3 — Carrier posture resolves

The hearing must choose one of the branch families:

• attach quote with scar;
• detach and reprice;
• split carrier;
• quarantine return;
• sponsor buyout;
• inspector attach;
• editor detach;
• public table return;
• suppress terminal;
• abandon.

A valid branch changes the carrier price state and future route acceptance.

Beat 4 — The object and quote diverge or bind

The returned object and stability quote must no longer move as an unnamed pair. Possible outcomes:

• object can carry the quote only with public table visibility;
• object can carry the quote only under sponsor, lawful, or editor gate;
• object returns with price scar and future claim cost;
• object becomes split-required or quarantined;
• quote detaches and requires a new 梁雾 price;
• K-404 becomes protected, public, suppressed, hostile, locked, or missed;
• future route becomes blocked, costlier, sponsor-only, lawful-only, public-table-required, split-required, or recovery-required.

Beat 5 — Default if the carrier is hidden or false-fresh

If the player hides the docket, underfills the hearing, suppresses K-404, omits 梁雾, or lets a claimant file first, 报价索引违约 fires or is armed.

The default must mutate quote state, returned object state, K-404 state, 梁雾 state or absence, and future route acceptance.

Branch matrix

Branch	Relief	Cost	Future route effect
Attach quote with scar	route asset usable again	terminal/梁雾 exposure, claim cost, or inspection heat	accepted with scar or public table required
Detach and reprice	false-fresh risk drops	clearance premium, escrow debt, handler burden, or delay	old quote cannot be cited until repriced
Split carrier	false owner contained	source ambiguity, archive debt, or distrust	route must choose copy/claimant/support surface
Quarantine return	wrong use prevented	route delay, recovery cost, inspection heat	lawful appeal or recovery required
Sponsor buyout	slot/churn pressure drops	contract capture and public distrust	sponsor-only carrier
Inspector attach	false-owner risk drops	inspection heat and schedule hold	lawful-only or appeal-required carrier
Editor detach	attention/continuity improves	edit debt, drift, or distrust	checksum release required
Public table return	legitimacy/audience floor improves	sponsor pressure, witness exposure, inspection heat	public table visibility required
Suppress terminal	short pressure relief	K-404 trust, route asset integrity, future claim cost worsen	quote-index default armed
Abandon	no immediate payment	claimant files first	captured, blocked, split, or recovery-only route
