Abstract

This story takes place in a future where all crimes are punished in the same way; from stealing a pencil to robbing a bank. Nobody knows what the punishment is, but everyone avoids it, and those who don’t, disappear. Where there seems to be security in the absence of delinquency, many demand the truth, asking what is really happening. Elías is one of them. Upon getting his answer, his cleverness leads him to a terribly unexpected end.
