The Database

Every day another few living citizens of Earth that weren't newborns were processed into the Database, their data entered and ran through all past crimes and outstanding issues, to look for matches.


Pretty soon John Smith, presumably not his real name, was the last one left, as he kept running.


But there was only so much rainforest and ocean to hide in, and eventually he was caught, and brought in for processing.


Where, to the surprise of everyone, he came up clean.


The most surprised person was John Smith, he assumed he'd forgotten his crimes.


But so had everyone else.
