Guess the language! (Cops' Thread)

ROBBERS' THREAD

A famous cops-and-robbers challenge whose source shall remain unnamed is brought to Codidact.

You are a cop. You should write a program in a "famous" (has an English Wikipedia/Esolangs/Rosetta Code page) language that prints Cops and Robbers. That's all it does - prints exactly this stream of bytes, with optional trailing output if your language absolutely has to make it.

Don't assume REPLs, existing boilerplate or nonstandard flags. If your code has bytes outside printable ASCII range, it should have a hexdump available.

Do not, and I repeat, do not edit the source of your program after posting. You might want to make your program polyglot-free.

Your goal is to be the writer of the shortest program whose language still hasn't been determined after 2 weeks or 14 days. If your program isn't cracked by then, you may choose to reveal the language yourself.

Good luck, all!

You need to create a separate challenge for robbers to post their solutions to. See https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/279754

The only interaction robbers have is stating a language which is valid (although it isn't trivial). I don't think it'd be neccessary.

Well, robbers deserve to have upvotes on their answers for their effort IMO. There's a lot less motivation to crack a cop otherwise.
