Title: File 49 A Present from the Underworld
Minami: ...Shit...!!

Minami: Damn iiit!!

Terrorist: Do not fear!
Terrorist: Bring them retribution!
Terrorist: Retribution!!

Fujimaru: What should we do?
Fujimaru: Think, Fujimaru!!

152

Hazmat: This is BPT Alpha Team. We've reached the underground 3rd floor.
Hazmat: Beta Team went ahead into the corridor from the hall.
Kirishima: Roger.
Kirishima: We're opening the barriers.

Hazmat: Beginning disinfection!!

153

Hazmat: Alpha Team, go in!
Hazmat: Roger!

J: How is Maya doing in her...
J: infiltration of "Third-i"?

Cain: The transmission saying she'd gotten on the elevator headed underground was the last one we got.

154

Mikhail: Her transmissions can't reach us from underground.
Mikhail: So we can't reach the receiver in her tooth, either.
Mikhail: We can't contact her.

J: ...Let's tap into "Third-i"'s internal radio then.
J: How's the interception device that Houshou-san set up?

Mikhail: Checking.
SFX: Rinng
SFX: Ring
Mikhail: ...OB van?
Mikhail: Is the interception device in "Third-i" still up?
OB van: We can still communicate with it.

Mikhail: We need you to intercept the transmissions from the hazmat team on the underground 3rd floor.
OB van: Yes, sir.

Mikhail: Okay, check the forwarded radio signal.
Mikhail: If you need to, report to us.
Mikhail: Okay.

155

J: Now then...

J: All that's left is the "Shikimura File"...
J: Right?

156

Fujimaru: D-damn it!
Fujimaru: Minami-san, can you fly a helicopter!?
Fujimaru: At this rate, it'll be destroyed...

Minami: That won't work!!
Minami: If I put down my gun to grab the stick and am shot to death, it's all over!

Fujimaru: We don't have time!
Fujimaru: In another 30 minutes, the two in the basement could start showing symptoms!!

Minami: I know that!!
Minami: Don't rush me when there's nothing I can do!!
Minami: Shit!! Why didn't Kirishima send another investigator!

157

Fujimaru: Then...
Fujimaru: I'll do it.

Minami: H...
Minami: Huh!??
Fujimaru: Kirishima-san.
Fujimaru: Can you hear me?

Kirishima: Fujimaru-kun!
Kirishima: We're sending backup there now...
Fujimaru: We can't wait 20 minutes!!
Fujimaru: I'll fly it!

Kirishima: What!! Don't be ridiculous!
Fujimaru: I have experience!

158

Fujimaru: If someone instructs me...
Fujimaru: I can do it!

Kirishima: You have experience flying a helicopter!?
Fujimaru: I've never heard anything about it, but you are Vice Chief Takagi's son, so...
Sawakita: Eh...um, is there no other option!?

Fujimaru: No.
Fujimaru: If we wait for the backup, you won't be able to...
Fujimaru: save us or the two in the basement!!

Kirishima: ...Understood.
Kirishima: We'll do it.

Kirishima: Connect him to Sakaki-san of the helicopter unit.
Kirishima: He should be able to lead him properly.
Kudou: Understood.

159

Fujimaru: I have approval.
Fujimaru: Let's go!
Fujimaru: Cover me!

Minami: Wait...
Minami: You got approval.
Fujimaru: Really!?

Terrorist: Don't let them go!!

160

Terrorist: Titus...

Terrorist: Don't let them go!! Stop them!!
Terrorist: For "him"...!!

Minami: Hurry!
Minami: If you're gonna fly it...
Minami: then fly iiiit!

Sakaki: Once the rotation of the main rotor gets in the safe range...
Sakaki: make sure to operate the pedal so the entire helicopter doesn't spin.
Sakaki: Slowly move the stick...

161

Fujimaru: I...
Fujimaru: I'm going!!

162-163

164

Minami: Ha...
Minami: Ha ha.
Minami: We're flying...We're flying!
Minami: You were really able to fly it!

Terrorist: Kh...

Terrorist: ...Stop.
Terrorist: B-but...

Titus: We have failed...
Titus: We're switching to "Plan B".

Titus: Help out the injured.
Titus: We're withdrawing.
Terrorist: Titus.
Terrorist: Your arm...

165

Titus: This is nothing...

Titus: The fact that I was unable to match the expectations of the one with the "Blood of God"...
Titus: is much more painful...!!

166

Minami: Where did you learn to fly a helicopter?
Minami: From your father?
Fujimaru: No...
Fujimaru: That's not it.

Minami: Huh?
Minami: Then...where?

Fujimaru: ...Video games.
Minami: Video games?

Fujimaru: I've played a lot of...
Fujimaru: helicopter simulators.
Fujimaru: I even bought a special joystick...

167

Fujimaru: But the real thing really is different...
Fujimaru: So...heavy...
Fujimaru: My...arm is...
Minami: Y-you're kidding! Video games!?
Minami: Don't screw around like that!!
Text above last speech bubble: It's a good thing you managed to pull this off!!

Fujimaru: Switch out with me...
Fujimaru: Switch out!!
Minami: Ah ah.
Minami: S-s-stop!

Minami: Commander Sakaki...this is Minami.
Minami: I've taken control of the helicopter.
Sakaki: Minami, huh?
Sakaki: The disasters just keep coming.

Sakaki: Video games? ...Geez, how reckless.
Sakaki: He really is Takagi's son.
Fujimaru: Was that...
Fujimaru: a compliment?

Sakaki: ...Heh.
Sakaki: Yeah, right.
Sakaki: Don't get carried away, you damn kid.

Fujimaru: Ha ha...

168

SFX: Beep
SFX: Beep
Fujimaru: Yes.

Kirishima: Fujimaru-kun! We don't have time.
Kirishima: Worst case, we only have half an hour.

Kirishima: Where's the antivirus?
Kirishima: Do you know?
Fujimaru: No, not yet.
Fujimaru: First I have to get the "Shikimura File"...

Text right of Fujimaru: Okay, I can do this.
Kirishima: You said the "Shikimura File" was at your dead mother's place.
Kirishima: What did you mean?
Fujimaru: My mom's the one who taught me how to use a computer.

Fujimaru: My mom kept a blog all the way up to when she died five years ago.
Fujimaru: The page is still there and I occasionally go there to administrate it kind of like a grave keeper or something...

169

Text: My mother died last year. Thank you for reading my mothers blog while she was alive. If you like, please come visit every so often as a memorial to her.
Fujimaru: If my mom's old friend Professor Shikimura...
Fujimaru: came to that blog to "visit her grave"...
Fujimaru: He would know the email address left there and would know that I occasionally do some administration on it.

Fujimaru: Professor Shikimura wouldn't have known my email address, so if he wanted to make sure the file made it directly to me...
Fujimaru: He would leave it there!

170

Fujimaru: Here it is!

Fujimaru: I found it!!
