Gaius lives within the highbrow area of the municipal council. Over the years the Gorran estate has been an area exclusively reserved for the bourgeois. Most top government officials reside thereat. It is always quiet and peaceful with the lanes fully decorated and shrubs planted along them.
However, following the high rate of lack of employment and meaningful jobs among the teaming youth population, the politicians whom the youth see as impoverishing them became the soft targets for the youth. Gorran estate being an area exclusively occupied by them also became unsafe, even with the high level of security personnel mounted at strategic places.
Series of incidence of robbery were reported by the residents as the perpetrators appear to devise means to beat the security checks along the road.
Gaius who has been living peacefully in Gorran estate realized the need to put in place some security measures on his own. He went and installed an artificial dog in front of his house. This dog was programmed to back intermittently whether there is a threat or not. Gaius usually install the dog in front of his house in the night. This way it gives the impression that the owner of the building is around and wide awake.
Funny enough, the dog also has a CCTV camera installed in his eyes which was also connected to Gaius mobile phone. With that he sees everything that happens within his house.
