The explanation

Mark let out a growl and thought for a moment. He realised this was clearly a law enforcement office, his entire life is based around this subject. He took a seat infront of the desk, ready to talk his way out like a lawyer. "Lady, I'm not sure what to call you, would you mind telling me your name?" He asked politely. "You can call me Miss for now, I require anonymity until we can make sure you're safe to roam Pinesdale." The woman responded.

Mark raised an eyebrow but kept his cool. "Alright then, Miss, I need you to understand that this is all a misunderstanding, I was simply--"

"Drop the lawyer act Mark." The woman interrupted. Mark suddenly shuddered with fear, he never told her his name...

"Umm... right.. well um, would you mind telling me how you know my name..?" Mark attempted to ask politely, the anger and frustration began to build up. "My team survey every person that enters Pinesdale, as I'm sure you know this village runs it's own government, and part of the system that keeps this the safest place on the planet is my division. We ensure that nobody walking around here is a danger or threat to the great people of Pinesdale. So when you entered this town, facial recognition software told who you were in an instant!" The woman explained.

Mark ran his hand through his hair, deep in thought. How could he have been so blind? He asked himself, frustrated that he didn't see any of this coming. "So if I get a permit, you'll let me go?" He asked her. "Not exactly, had you come here first, then yes that would be an option for you." The woman replied. "What? Why is it not an option for me now!?" Mark asked, dumbfounded.

The lady raised her eyebrow and turned her computer screen so it faced Mark. "Really Mark? Is this not you?" She asked him. Mark watched the screen display 4k footage of him assaulting that poor girl. He rubbed his forehead nervously. "Lady I'm begging you, that was a mistake, I'm sorry, I need to be here, please don't call the authorities!" He begged her.

The woman smiled, as if an idea popped into her head. "The usual procedure here is to trial you at court.. but I'm in a good mood today.." She told him. Mark lifted his head up in relief. "Yes, what do I need to do?" He asked energetically, **** for a way out.
