Title: File 9 The Man Who Holds the Key

02

Maya: I'm currently working to stop the actions of the "Shooter of the Magic Bullet".
Maya: But you don't have to believe me.
Maya: Hee hee hee

Fujimaru: Damn it.
Fujimaru: What are you planning, Orihara Maya!!
Fujimaru: There's no way she gave us that beneficial information without it benefiting her in some way...!!

Maya: Do your best,
Maya: "Falcon".
SFX: *close*

SFX: *click*
SFX: Doo...
SFX: Doo...

SFX: *type*
Fujimaru: Okay!
SFX: Doo...

03

Fujimaru: I've found Orihara Maya's cell phone,
Fujimaru: Otoya!
Otoya: Kirishima-san! We've found her cell phone's location.

Kirishima: Okay!
Kirishima: Tailing her might be better than taking her in...
Kirishima: Can you get the location information in real time?
Fujimaru: I can!

Makimura: This is Makimura of "Third-i".
Makimura: I've arrived on the scene!

Makimura: I have the information on Orihara Maya's location...
Makimura: I'm within a 20 meter radius of her!

04

Kirishima: I've sent you information on her stature and a picture of her face.
Kirishima: It's possible she's in disguise...

Makimura: I've found her!
Makimura: It's the woman terrorist from the "Bloody Monday" incident...
Makimura: Orihara Maya!!

Makimura: I've begun tailing her!
Otoya: I'm sure she expected we'd do this...

Kirishima: Understood.
Kirishima: Makimura! Don't follow her too closely!

Makimura: Roger!

05

Alexei: ...It's been 4 minutes.
Alexei: What's going on at the prison?
Alexei: Can you tell from the surveillance cameras if they've received an emergency communication?

Peter: It looks like they have.

06

Peter: The jailers are running all over the place.
Ryuunosuke: It looks like they've begun releasing the prisoners.

Ryuunosuke: Congrats, Arthur.
Ryuunosuke: Your first plan was a success.
Alexei: ...Yes.

Ryuunosuke: What is it?
Ryuunosuke: You look a bit down...
Alexei: This seemed a little too easy.
Alexei: I thought they would agree after a few sacrifices, but...

Ryuunosuke: ...Really? But no matter how stubborn Kujou is...
Ryuunosuke: if you take his fellow politicians and bureaucrats hostage, he has no choice but to accept your demands.

Alexei: That kind of thing doesn't work on that man.

07

Alexei: No matter what he has to give...
Alexei: in exchange.

Alexei: Well...whatever.
Alexei: I guess I can't help but be immersed with sentimentality.

Snow White: What are your orders,
Snow White: "King Arthur"?

08

Alexei: Our next target...
Alexei: is the "Third Emperor".
Alexei: But in order to go after it...
Alexei: we must first get our hands on a certain person.

Ryuunosuke: Does this person have some connection to the "Third Emperor"?

Alexei: 8 years ago...
Alexei: I locked away the location of the "Third Emperor" with 2 different keys.
Alexei: That means that without both the information I possess...
Alexei: and the information this person possesses, you cannot find it.

09

Alexei: I did this...
Alexei: because, 8 years ago, I did not ignore the possibility...
Alexei: that even I could be captured.

Ryuunosuke: Well done.
Ryuunosuke: So you weren't even willing to trust yourself.
Alexei: I didn't do it because I thought I was such a weak person that I would give in to torture...
Alexei: but there are plenty of other ways to get people to tell the truth.

Ryuunosuke: It's true that if Alexei knew it all...
Ryuunosuke: there's a chance he would have...
Ryuunosuke: let the truth leak to someone he trusted like me.

Ryuunosuke: But this means the true battle depends on when he gets his hands on the "Third Emperor".
Ryuunosuke: I've made my "preparations" for that time.

10

Ryuunosuke: Just watch...!!
Ryuunosuke: I won't let things go like they did 2 years ago.
Alexei: Now.
Alexei: Will you come with me, Snow White?
Snow White: Yes...!

Alexei: And...
Alexei: Beast.

Ryuunosuke: ...Of course!
Ryuunosuke: We'll get them all at once!!!

SFX: *type* *type*

11

Hansel: What are you doing,
Hansel: "Peter Pan"?

Peter: Are you interested, "Hansel"?
Hansel: Of course not.
Hansel: You know very well...
Hansel: that I have no interest in the world of computers.
Hansel: The same goes for my younger sister, "Gretel"...

Hansel: It's just...
Hansel: I'm wondering what could happen if we focus too much of the information on you.
Peter: This isn't part of the plan.

Peter: I'm interested in the hacker that stopped the crashing plane.
SFX: *type*
Hansel: Oh?

12

Peter: I'm sure...
Peter: he'll stick his head into the gas terror incident, too.

Peter: Absolutely sure.

Fujimaru: Kirishima-san, we've reached the "Nest".
Fujimaru: How are things?
Kirishima: We're evacuating the facilities and apartments that could be possible gas terror targets.

13

Kirishima: It's just...
Kirishima: The gas has already reached the level where an explosion could occur.
Kirishima: We're keeping the ventilation going and trying to prevent it from igniting.
Kirishima: We weren't able to stop the gas supply.

Otoya: You mean the supply to the entire region?
Kirishima: Yes...pretty much the entire city center area.
Kirishima: We're going to have the news say there was some trouble with the system, but...

Kirishima: Why are you being so quiet?

Otoya: Why did they choose a method of terrorism where shutting of the supply...
Otoya: would prevent further damage?
Kirishima: Good question.
Kirishima: Their true aim could be having us shut down the system...

Kirishima: I'm not sure why they would want that, but it's possible.
Kirishima: That means we need to do it in a way that we can get the gas supply back up quickly.

14

Kirishima: But...
Kirishima: As we thought, it seems someone has gotten into the gas company's system.

Otoya: A hacker, huh?
Kirishima: Yes.

Kirishima: That means...
Kirishima: it's Falcon's turn.

15

Fujimaru: I'm hacking into the gas company's system now!
Fujimaru: I don't know how skilled the enemy hacker is, so I don't know what could happen.
Fujimaru: Make preparations to forcibly shut off the system's power!
Kirishima: Will do.

16

Kirishima: Get that done.
Kanou: This sure is a slow way of doing things.

Kanou: It'd be a lot easier...
Kanou: if we had "Third-i's" analysis group do this instead of whispering about it in the section chief's office.
Text right of Kanou: Like Sawakita!
Kirishima: We have no choice.

Kirishima: Only a small part of "Third-i" knows about this operation.

Kirishima: Sawakita-san is part of that group...
Kirishima: but, if there's a spy and we took her away from her post...
Kirishima: that could raise the spy's suspicion.

Kirishima: I don't want to suspect our own people...
Kirishima: but there is a precedent.
Kirishima: ...Unfortunately.

Kanou: Yeah...

17

Fujimaru: Okay!!
Fujimaru: I've hacked into the gas company's system!
Fujimaru: I was right. Someone's created security holes! And there's a bunch of them.

Fujimaru: The entire source code has been rewritten...
Fujimaru: If their hacker wanted to...
Fujimaru: he could make it so that the power couldn't be shut off unless you physically pulled out the plug.

Yajima: Hmm, that's not good.
Yajima: The gas supply's main system is made so it won't go down easily.
Yajima: It has 2 or 3 levels of safety devices...
Yajima: so it isn't that easy to even pull the plug.

18

Otoya: So he's used that to his favor.
Otoya: Fujimaru, go carefully.
Otoya: You're already in the enemy's territory.
Fujimaru: Yeah.
Fujimaru: I'm entering bit by bit so he won't notice.

Fujimaru: Because I don't know...
Fujimaru: what's waiting for me.

Peter: You've come, haven't you?

19-20

Peter: You haven't left any traces yet...
Peter: but I can tell, whoever you are.

Fujimaru: He's...
Fujimaru: here.
Fujimaru: Somewhere...!!

Peter: It's begun.
Peter: Heh heh...It's such a thrill.
Peter: No one can see you. No one can tell you're there.

19

Peter: This is a cyber battle!!
Text: A battle of hunt or be hunted!!
