week 4 - trial
[At 9 AM precisely, the old grandfather clock chimes once again, and the doors to the drawing room are opened. They will remain open until everyone has come inside, after which they will shut behind them. It is not possible to leave on your own, although perhaps if you have a specific purpose the hostess will allow you to go, as long as you are accompanied by a partner.
The room is set up comfortably, with several tables by the fireplace set out to assist with the trial. The Hostess will also remain in a seat near the fireplace, next to the scales on the mantle. At lunch, the doors will open to bring in a large meal on an automatically rolling buffet, and at 3 PM, tea and finger sandwiches will be served. You'll be able to enjoy the trial in comfort, of course, but the information cards set out on tables will not allow you to forget your true purpose here.
At 7 PM, the trial will adjourn for the day. Players will be escorted by the Hostess to the ballroom, where dinner and wine will be served until 10 PM, at which point players will be required to return to their wings in groups with their wingmates and will be locked in their bedrooms until 8:30 AM the following morning.]

So, inside of Rin's room was her laptop and on it an encrypted file containing her data. For those of you who don't know robots, quick overview: they're basically just giant machines and Rin in particular seemed to be an Artifical Intelligence, or AI for short, who used this laptop to store all her data. This includes her memories, her thoughts, pretty much everything that made her function autonomously and be the girl we knew.
The problem is something this sensitive has a lot of protection around it and that means I'll need to brute force it to make it work. I'm not a hacker per say, but it doesn't seem to be more than a series of advanced algorithms so I can handle it on my own. Judging by the information cards it seems like no one else here is really into cyber security, so I'll have to work on this alone.
And here's the actual issue: I don't know how to write code to make the computer automatically crack the encryption, so I need to do it manually bit by bit. And that might take the rest of the day up for something this large. I may not finish by the time we break for the night, but I'll definitely have it done by tomorrow morning at the latest. I'll be cracking away at this for the rest of today most likely. If you need me for something let me know, but most of my energy is going to need to go to this. It could very well give us an insight on what Rin was doing last and bring us a breakthrough if we're lucky.
What I'm saying is: I'm going to need coffee. None of this tea crap.

Wait, wait! If her memories are in that ( pointing at the laptop, ) then you can see her last memories too? Then that means...
( Oh my goodness, his eyes light up and he practically falls over in his seat. This is good news, right?! )
... How do you like your coffee?

Even if it doesn't tell us directly, if it really has her memories, we could see who she talked to. Maybe the murderer tried to befriend her before all of this. ( Wow, that's pretty awful but he's been in enough awful alliances to know about bad friends ok. ) Good luck, Miss Alice.

Can you see if there's any way someone could use the computer to control Rin?
