03

Ema: Pinocchio!
Ema: You didn't have to kill him...
Ema: ...Ah.

Pinocchio: What are you saying, Snow White?
Pinocchio: "I will kill anyone who gets in our way."
Pinocchio: Was what you said before Arthur just a bluff!?

Man: Either way, this whole city will be destroyed.
Man: Let's hurry.

Man: ...This should make the police or "Third-i" focus their investigation in this area.
Man: It'll buy us some time.

04

Alexei: Each of us will inconspicuously get on different railroad cars.
Alexei: I'll indicate where we get off.
Man: Yes, sir.

Ema: Arthur?
Ema: Where are we meeting up with Beast...?

Alexei: ...You don't need to worry about him.
Alexei: He said that, even if he loses his life,
Alexei: he won't regret it as long it was for the sake of the "Shooter of the Magic Bullet".

Alexei: "Peter Pan"?
Alexei: Can you hear me?
Peter: What is it, Arthur?

05

Alexei: Everything went as planned.
Alexei: It was thanks to you.
Peter: I'm glad.
Peter: What about Beast?

Alexei: He was a traitor after all.
Alexei: No...he was never on our side.
Alexei: To avoid any unrest, I've kept it from the other team members.

Peter: Did you get rid of him?
Alexei: I used him to keep back the enemy.

Alexei: Right now he should be dying a painful death from a neurotoxin.
Alexei: And if not, it'll be from blood loss...
Alexei: So either way...

Alexei: there are currently no problems.

06

Peter: I'm...
Peter: glad.

Fujimaru: Capture...complete.

Fujimaru: I got the complete plans to the detonator...
Fujimaru: from the Russian military's data server and sent them to "Third-i".

07

Kanou: You've hacked in there several times, but doing it in only 10 minutes...
Kanou: Man, I'm glad you're on our side.

Fujimaru: ...The enemy has one, too.
Kanou: The guy who launched that cyber attack on you at the cafe, huh?
Fujimaru: ...Yes.

Fujimaru: That hacker...
Fujimaru: It wasn't just my imagination.
Fujimaru: I've met him somewhere...!
Fujimaru: But where...!?

SFX: Beeeeep
Fujimaru: Oh.
Fujimaru: That was fast.
Fujimaru: I already got the email with the inspection data!
Kanou: "Third-i" can't just rely on you.
Kanou: We've got this young woman who joined named Tsukamoto. She's really sped up our data processing.

Fujimaru: You're right.
Fujimaru: Her name's Tsukamoto, huh...?
Fujimaru: !!! I know how to stop the detonation timer!

Kanou: What?

08

Fujimaru: I need the Key Tool.
Kanou & Minami: Eh?
Fujimaru: The program is on a ROM, so you can't rewrite it.
Fujimaru: So there's a tool built into the key chip that
Fujimaru: let's you change it to temporarily run an inputted program in case of emergencies!
Fujimaru: Where is it!? There were 3 Tsar Bombas...
Fujimaru: One was used in a test and another was given to the "Shooter of the Magic Bullet"...That's the one right here.
Fujimaru: The last one was supposed to have been dismantled...

Fujimaru: The Key Tool must have been dealt with then as well...!
Fujimaru: It was dismantled in Russia 15 years ago...the data's still there.

09

Fujimaru: I found it!
Fujimaru: It was given to a private collector and not to the military? There was someone who wanted part of a hydrogen bomb...?
Fujimaru: It's switched owners 3 times since then.
Fujimaru: The third time just recently.

Fujimaru: Eh...?
Fujimaru: They're Japanese...?

Kanou: What is it, Fujimaru?
Kanou: So who has...
Kanou: that key tool thing!?

10

Fujimaru: Orihara...
Fujimaru: Maya!!

Kanou: Wha-!?

Fujimaru: ...So that's it.
Fujimaru: She knew we were searching for the "Third Emperor"...
Fujimaru: and she holds the "key".
Fujimaru: That's why she contacted me...!!

11

Maya: Hello?

Fujimaru: Hand over the key tool!!

Maya: ...Geez.

Maya: C'mon, don't yell into my ear.
Fujimaru: We don't have time to have a leisurely chat!

Fujimaru: The Key Tool...
Fujimaru: to the "Tsar Bomba"!!
Fujimaru: You have it don't you!?

12

Maya: Yes.
Maya: I have it right here.

Fujimaru: Hand it over to us!
Maya: Come on...
Maya: Don't be ridiculous, Takagi-kun.
Maya: I worked hard to get it.

Maya: I can't hand it over empty handed.
Fujimaru: You're the one being ridiculous!!
Fujimaru: It's a 100 megaton hydrogen bomb! And it's beneath Tokyo!

13

Fujimaru: You'll be affected where you are...
Fujimaru: Just hand it over! Do you want to die!?

Maya: You really are...quite foolish.

Maya: WE'RE...
Maya: fine.

Maya: If it detonates underground, I just have to get 100 km away before it does.
Maya: Not even the heat will affect me.

Fujimaru: She knew it's underground!?
Fujimaru: She should have just learned that from me...

Fujimaru: Even so...Tokyo will be blown away!
Fujimaru: Tens of millions of people will die!!
Maya: Yes, they will.

14

Maya: But that's important to you.
Small text around Maya's bubble: Hee hee
Maya: Isn't that right? You don't want to lose any more important friends or your precious sister.
Small text around Maya's bubble: Hee hee

Maya: And...
Maya: so...
Maya: Shall we begin making a deal?
Fujimaru: What kind of deal!?

Maya: C'mon, Takagi-kun.
Maya: This is business.
Maya: I'm sure you know.
Maya: Money.

15

Fujimaru: I took a pretty heavy loss during "Bloody Monday".
Fujimaru: I'm adding on plenty for that.

SFX: Vvvv
SFX: Vvvv

Maya: ...I'm going to have you provide me with my income.

Fujimaru: ...How much!?
Fujimaru: Who much do you want!?

Maya: ...Let's see.

16

Fujimaru: ...Huh?

SFX: Click
Minami: HQ! Can you hear me!? Orihara Maya made her demand!
