00:00For the Special Anti-Terrorism Measures Act, we now place all terminals in the designated
00:25area under Public Security's electronic control.
00:28Anticipating that cyber-terrorism against Harimadara Heavy Industries will lead to a shutdown...
00:32HQ to Squad 357, transfer command to Section 9. This is priority one.
00:41Murderers!
00:45Give us back our water!
00:47Despite increasingly fierce protests, a contract has just been signed between Akuzan
00:51Water Company and the Japanese business giant Harimadara Heavy Industries.
00:58What's the matter?
01:01I got it!
01:03What's the matter?
01:05I got it!
01:06I got it!
01:08Let's get started.
01:27All channels within the revised limits are clear.
01:29Home affairs and MLIT lines under our control.
01:32Now ready for domination.
01:33Begin the operation.
01:38All lifelines, surveillance and personal electronics in nearby buildings and roads are now dominated.
01:59Currently profiling cyber brains and terminals of 4,022 people in the area.
02:041,102 still require follow-up.
02:07Saramaki!
02:08This is my crime scene, dammit! You can't take over!
02:10This is section 6. You are not authorized to infiltrate our comm lines.
02:15I'm not going to tolerate civilian casualties because we're too busy playing departmental musical chairs.
02:20Unless one of you would like to take the fall when all this blows up in our face.
02:25Chief Aramark, please explain yourself.
02:28Ah, Vice Minister Kitahara.
02:29I thought you were busy celebrating this new business partnership.
02:34So the threat you warned me about is real?
02:36Although the details are still scarce, we received an anonymous tip that a Cardi group mobilized three hours ago.
02:42Anonymous?
02:43One of us. And you're certain you can trust it.
02:46Yes. Without a doubt. The area around the Yotsubashi building is their target.
02:50Hmm. The old ape sure is fired up, isn't he? Especially considering that we're flying blind here.
02:56The cyberbrain contamination at Hari Madara was a big deal. We've been after this outfit for four months now.
03:03And by we, you mean you, right?
03:06Wow. Did you make this yourself, Major?
03:09It ain't a toy, rookie. Hands off.
03:11This is a military-grade virtual comm link. That means we won't have any hackers listening in.
03:18We should receive our orders any minute. The domination went through.
03:21We need bait to draw out our prey. We should nab one of those terrorists ASAP.
03:26So, are we dealing with that super wizard class hacker from before? Firestarter, was that the name?
03:32That's just wishful thinking on the major's part. We don't know if there's really someone pulling the strings or not.
03:40My only wish is to establish my spec ops team. Unless you want to bitch and moan about that.
03:47Oh, piss off.
03:50Driving during a cyber meeting? You're gonna crash.
03:54This from the guy who can't walk and chew gum.
03:56Our future as an independent unit is riding on this mission.
03:59Public security handles the incident, and we handle what caused it.
04:03Let's move.
05:09Enemy issued an attack order.
05:11Apprehend them.
05:18Screw your country.
05:20You rich bastards don't understand a thing.
05:23Today, we all follow the principle of free trade to maintain fair prices that will spur post-war economic recovery.
05:39This pistol was his only weapon.
05:44Something's fishy.
05:45This pistol was his only weapon.
05:46Something's fishy.
05:47The riot squad opened fire on the protestors.
05:52The riot squad opened fire on the protestors.
06:05The riot squad opened fire on the protestors.
06:07the riot squad opened fire on the protestors.
06:22The West team is just picking off these protesters, and now they're shooting each other, too.
06:39This must be a massive, simultaneous ghost hack.
06:42Sounds crazy, but that's the only explanation.
06:44There's no tech capable of controlling 100 people at once.
06:48The perps on my watch are all dead.
06:50Check the Riot Squad's lines and try and find out what caused the attack.
06:54This log could be fire starters, but...
06:57So it's not hacking, but a virus, huh?
06:59I don't see one in the sequence.
07:01Must be a self-destructing Stuxnet type.
07:04That means someone is sending a packaged set of actions designed to control an entire group at once.
07:20There you are.
07:30Yes, I made a deal with the devil for the independence and rebirth of my nation.
07:43But in the end, that's exactly what you wanted, isn't it?
07:46And now we all reap the rewards of our naivete.
07:49Our slaughter brought about by guns was followed by another brought about by water and money.
07:54I want a media blackout now.
07:56I don't care what it takes, you hear?
07:58And while that lined your pockets, it didn't bring an ounce of hope to Cardistan.
08:02It merely sowed the seas of betrayal that would grow to bleed away the pride of my people.
08:06So why don't I give you a taste of what that felt like?
08:10Then you'll have no choice but to grant me asylum, will you?
08:14Because that's the way of your civilized nation of pacifists!
08:18Oh, is it?
08:19Oh, is it?
08:49Oh, is it?
08:58Optical camouflage!
08:59This won't get rid of fire starter.
09:03Someone is hacking into my line.
09:17Major!
09:18Fisher!
09:19Sides up!
09:32Dammit!
09:49Give me a weapon!
09:51Mokito!
09:52Hold on me!
09:53I'll be right there!
09:56You're kidding me!
09:57I'm fine!
09:58Go after the one who has you!
10:13On your knees!
10:14If you resist, I will shoot you!
10:36Where'd that come from?
10:37Well, if you did your damn job, then we might know!
10:40Let's go!
10:44Whoopsie daisy!
10:45Hope that doesn't work!
10:46We need to get you some new handrails!
10:51Do it, Saito!
10:52Oh!
11:02Yeah...
11:03He got away!
11:04Sorry!
11:05Bunch of fools!
11:06You finally get your team together and the first thing you do is execute someone live on the national net!
11:09Oh, did I?
11:10Do you have any proof of that?
11:11And don't you tell me that was your only option!
11:12You're a super wizard-class hacker in an ace unit!
11:13Though now I'm starting to second-guess the army's decision to give you five stars!
11:14What did you find out about the army?
11:15You're a super wizard-class hacker in an ace unit!
11:16Well, now I'm starting to second-guess the army's decision to give you five stars!
11:17What did you find out about the virus and that girl on the scene?
11:18No cyber-virus was detected anywhere!
11:19The girl's name is Emma Suda.
11:21He's a super wizard-class hacker in an ace unit!
11:23And it's...
11:24I'm a super wizard-class hacker, if you get the max head in the air!
11:25And it's...
11:26I'm a huge fan of the army!
11:27What would you find out about the virus?
11:28Well we're not sure.
11:29Were we out of the series?
11:30So...
11:31Uph.
11:32I was lucky, sir.
11:33You were a big fan of the army.
11:34I can't find us!
11:35No cyber-virus own.
11:37What did you find out about the virus?
11:38The girl's name?
11:40did you find out about the virus and that girl on the scene? No cyber virus was detected anywhere.
11:46The girl's name is Emma Suda. Apparently she's famous on the net as some sort of game app designer.
11:52Nine hours after her arrest, that's it? If that's the best a former special A-rank inspector can
11:57pull, then I'm afraid I might have to second guess the army's judgment myself. Say what you will,
12:02but thanks to the dedicated efforts of my team, we were able to capture several of the perps
12:06alive. Wow, great work arresting a bunch of mindless packaged drones. We could have stopped
12:13this whole mess if we'd had special authority. Then swallow your useless pride and join section
12:19nine already. I can't give a group of hired guns the same authority and protection I could give
12:24to official home affairs agents. I'm mostly concerned about protecting my being. Our cutting-edge
12:31equipment can guard both cyber brains and prosthetic bodies. I was talking about my ghost, my beliefs.
12:36If you're good enough, I'll give you a personal budget.
12:41I want an international counter-terrorist agency, and I want us to have the same budget as the
12:45Rangers.
12:47I think I'm going to grab a bite to eat.
12:54Aramaki, it's been a while.
12:57Hello Colonel Hosami, what brings army intelligence here?
13:05I need you to hand over the girl.
13:08Care to explain? Don't worry about those two, I assure you they're trustworthy.
13:14Ex-Major Motoko Kusanagi of the 501. Hated your master so much you decided to become a stray, did you?
13:21You should check your intel. I'm still a major.
13:26At any rate, the cyber virus used is crucial for us to investigate.
13:31I don't suppose you could elaborate on that, could you?
13:35It's a triple package of brainwashing ghost infiltration and false memory creation.
13:40False memories. Last I checked, the government doesn't admit that sort of thing is possible despite all the reports that come in.
13:48The bottom line is that virus units like that one have entered the country through a broker.
13:53You won't get an indictment on that girl. Just forget about it and hand her over.
13:58Unfortunately, she's already been transferred to Unit 501.
14:02When?
14:03When they requested my cooperation and not a second later.
14:07I see you've got a monkey's brain to go along with that face of yours.
14:11Mock me if you like, but you will live to regret this.
14:23Terrorism through the use of false memories. It seems your claims have finally been proven true, Major.
14:29Knowing there's a virus that enables ghost hacking is little solace.
14:33Hope you're ready. I'll need you to escort the girl to Unit 501.
14:38Really? I honestly thought you were bluffing.
14:40I have a request signed by the Defense Minister. I'd like one of your men to stay here though.
14:45Someone to protect you from that scary old colleague of yours?
14:48Speaking of old colleagues, let's try to share information with yours.
14:52Can I ask you something?
14:54Yes?
14:55Let's say I did execute that woman.
14:58Why didn't you use my ghost infiltration key to stop me?
15:04I don't like hypothetical questions.
15:08I see.
15:10This is Dr. Jinji Becca Arthaid, the one the Major killed.
15:15She's Cardi, but she graduated with honors from Kuzan Royal University.
15:20She was a big player in Kuzan water importation since back in the provisional government days.
15:25But she started doing business with terrorists when she realized the world had turned its back on her people, huh?
15:31She was smart and she had a motive, but she's not a hacker.
15:34Someone else must have packaged this.
15:37So, got any info on that girl we captured?
15:40Her name's Emma Suda, 17 year old war orphan.
15:44She's a popular cyber brain game designer, copyrights her work under the name Tin Man.
15:49Tin Man? Like the Wizard of Oz?
15:52What the hell is that?
15:54Alright, so let's say she's a teenage super hacker. How does she fit in?
15:59You really think she's the one we're after?
16:02I'll know for sure once I dive into her ghost, won't I?
16:05Ishikawa, you stick to your research.
16:07Saito, to section nine.
16:09Pazu and Borma, you release the bait.
16:11Bato, you and Togasa come with me to escort the girl.
16:15It's time to start round two.
16:17Here's a suggestion before a brave leader pushes us into a situation with no intel again.
16:23Instead of charging in like a chicken with his head cut off, why don't you let me lead this so we can stay alive?
16:28Brave thing to say in my cyber brain space.
16:34You wanna fight? Now let's take this outside!
16:37Whoa, whoa, hey! Knock it off, you guys!
16:40You guys!
16:41You guys!
16:42UGH!
17:07He's finally making his move.
17:09I think the guy was trying to bore us to death.
17:12It might be better if we could ride inside this thing.
17:21I think you'll find my exterior personnel transportation handlebars to be more than adequate!
17:25This is just a crappy form of transportation.
17:27It's more of a mobile arsenal.
17:29We need room inside for the weapons.
17:31Yeah, but we could resupply each other just fine.
17:34Then we could arm his exterior and use him like a backup unit.
17:37Some backup?
17:38Remind me why we're using an outdated logistics model again?
17:41Apeface couldn't get the budget the Major wanted, so we're stuck with this charming piece of work.
17:46It's actually got a Neurochip AI. Dated as hell, but hard to hack at least.
17:51So essentially it was either us or the junkyard.
17:53Oh! Not good enough for the ex-cop wearing a purple necktie that went out of style decades ago?
18:00My late father told me a sharp-dressed man has respect for himself and demands it from others.
18:05And looking at the state that you're in, I have to agree.
18:09Bold words with that haircut.
18:12What I think is that you're annoying.
18:26I hate it when machines pretend to have human emotions.
18:31She's here.
18:32Did you hack my line to deliberately get yourself caught?
18:50I hate it.
18:52So who is this fire starter?
18:54Is it really the name of a hacker?
18:56You don't want me to hand you off to intelligence.
18:59Military courts won't do plea bargains, you know.
19:02Is that sea water I smell?
19:07Strange that I know since I'm not allowed to go anywhere near the sea.
19:12Programmers are like weapons, at least according to the law.
19:16We've had our freedoms taken away.
19:18So you are the group's hacker.
19:20What are you after?
19:21Long ago, glassblowers had no freedom either.
19:24That's because glasswork funded the state.
19:27If they attempted to leave their country, they were blinded.
19:30Or worse.
19:32A refugee.
19:33And that's reason enough to start a massacre.
19:38Do you think cyber brains make people happy?
19:46Are your memories trustworthy?
19:48How can you know that they weren't planted by someone?
19:52When micromachine based cyberization became a commonplace occurrence,
19:56experts worldwide warned us all of the same thing.
19:59False memories will be used to commit crimes, they said.
20:03Now every organization wants that technology.
20:06My technology.
20:07Then you actually did make memory manipulation tech?
20:11Even the memories you have now, they could be-
20:17I don't have time for this crap. I'm diving into her ghost.
20:20I had a feeling that would happen.
20:22We still don't know a damn thing about this virus though.
20:24What are you gonna do if you get infected?
20:26I think blowing away her cyber brain should do the trick.
20:29That wasn't my original intention, but any hacker who would commit mass murder just to save her own tail deserves capital punishment.
20:35Yeah, but during your dive? Your style of cyber warfare is sick, you know that?
20:39I prefer the term super wizard class.
20:42Wizard. A magician. A magician who can't go home.
20:47I'm diving straight in through her line.
20:50Ignoring protocol again.
20:52Hey, something's wrong.
20:55You're being hacked. They're doing it through her cyber brain.
21:01What's going on? This is more than just backfire.
21:05Emma. Danger. Emma.
21:15Who are you?
21:26Major!
21:31I'm so sorry, Emma. I'm so sorry.
21:34It's okay. This is what I wanted after all.
21:38Please don't cry, Brenda.
21:42There's another one. A second ghost.
21:55If Section 9 was so adamant about killing that woman,
21:58you at least could have shot her before she started preaching about asylum.
22:02The details of the incident are still under investigation, Deputy Director Amagata.
22:06But I do realize you're a member of the Next Generation's Weapons Review Committee, of course.
22:11You have my sympathies. I'm sure this has already turned into quite a nuisance for you.
22:16The year-end industry fair has been canceled.
22:18And thanks to pressure from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we won't be unveiling our prototype weapons anytime soon.
22:24It's shaking the foundations of the entire company.
22:27On the other hand, I hear you're still pressing for large-scale water sales even after Dr. Thayyed's death.
22:32I have a duty to fulfill my contract.
22:34Besides, effective use of resources is key for an international company.
22:39There are still people out there who can't secure drinking water.
22:43If you're just going to criticize my economics, I'm going back to work.
22:47You're not cut out for a government job, I'm afraid.
22:58Why don't you start an NPO and go live in some refugee camp?
23:02That guy is annoying.
23:08He's a classic ex-politician and he owes me one from my intelligence days.
23:13So if nothing else, he's a reliable source.
23:17NPO refugee camp? And maybe foreign affairs?
23:21The Council on Weapons Development?
23:24Was that the objective behind the cyber-terrorism on Hari Madara?
23:28Lately, there's a debate about whether next-gen weapons should be produced domestically or developed abroad.
23:33The overseas faction would be dancing in the streets if a domestic manufacturer got attacked.
23:39I got something. An NPO that treats cyberization disorders.
23:43This particular group distributed resources and donated learning devices to refugee camps in Kuzan during the war.
23:49Nothing domestically?
23:51Yeah. Gotta hit on that girl and their treatment records.
23:54Cyberization Rejection Syndrome, it says.
23:57Apparently, she ran away from a war orphan facility because she refused to be cyberized.
24:02So if you don't want a cyber-brain, then you're sick?
24:05The white paper on cyberization the MHLW released after the war classifies it as a mental disorder.
24:11Well, that's news to me.
24:13The cyberization business is insanely big money.
24:16I'm sure they've got a hand in the government and everything else,
24:19so it's no surprise to see them pull something like this.
24:22And do you think she has multiple personalities?
24:25Conventional wisdom says that even if your personality splits, you still only have one ghost.
24:30My question is, what is it?
24:32What did that NPO have to do with a business deal motivated by military development?
24:37It looks like we'll have to attack the military-industrial complex from both ends.
24:41Hey, it's me. I'm afraid the others got caught.
24:55Don't worry. You've all gone to the same place now.
25:02Hello there. You guys cops?
25:11Wait! I prepared a confession, okay? Let me call my lawyer and...
25:19Actually, we're not the police, so no lawyers.
25:23Killing our babe wasn't very nice. So, we're gonna need you to talk.
25:35Did our little girl miss her old family?
25:38I'm just bringing in your witness, Lieutenant Colonel Kurutsu.
25:43Tsumugi is standing by. If you want to dive, then be my guest. Assuming she has a ghost.
25:50What does that mean?
25:52Either way, I'm stepping out. As a member of the committee, I need to be at Harimadara's product inspection.
25:58Still obsessed with getting that promotion, I see.
26:01If I can't count on you to do it, then somebody has to.
26:28Nice to see you, Kusanagi. I didn't think we would have another opportunity to work with you. Are these your men?
26:37Yes. Bato and Togusa. This is Sumugi Dokuro. They're both cyber warfare tactical officers.
26:44Did she say both? Like two people are sharing a body?
26:48She told me they were identical twins operating as one. As far as how the hell they get around, well, I didn't ask.
26:54World's full of surprises.
26:58Let us begin, shall we?
27:10Huh. Guess only the body came back.
27:13What does that mean?
27:14This girl is a technical officer in Lieutenant Colonel Kurutsu's command.
27:18She was recently investigating a hacker with a special neurochip-type cyberbrain.
27:23Scarecrow is his handle. A suspect in the terrorist attack on Harimadara.
27:28Scarecrow, huh? Another Oz character, huh?
27:32Our conclusion was that he's a spy that specializes in post-war tech.
27:38We have Emma to thank for that one. She told us that he had the same disorder as her.
27:43Meaning he could only survive by slowly but surely replacing his brain with neurochips and his body with cyborg parts.
27:49In her case, what exactly does that entail?
27:52Patients utilize auxiliary cyberbrains to prevent attenuation of personality.
27:57Although this is certainly an impairment, Emma transformed it into a signature trait as did Scarecrow.
28:02Emma structured her personality through advanced cyberization, which was more benign than Scarecrow's approach.
28:07To retain his sense of self, he dubs the ghosts of others, steals their bodies, and assumes their identities.
28:14In other words, this is his answer to the quandary if I only had a brain.
28:18This is insane.
28:19I see. Then Emma...
28:21The body is technically hers, but it's being operated by a man's brain, which is only one-third the normal size and heavily cyberized with neurochips.
28:30So what I dove into before was a ghost that had been dubbed over by this Scarecrow guy.
28:35Wait, so what happened to Emma's brain?
28:37Ghost dubbing would have degraded it, I think. It's either in the trash or sliced up in his research lab.
28:43That's awful.
28:46Poor Emma. I'm sorry.
28:49It's okay, Junior. Don't be afraid. I know the lions will come. People with courage will come.
28:56It's time to start talking. Tell me who you work for.
28:59I'm just a Scarecrow. My brain is fading away.
29:03I'm made of tin. My heart is fading away.
29:06Is that Emma talking? Or her dubbed ghost? It sounds like there's two of them.
29:11All right, tin girl. Give me the Scarecrow man's name.
29:16His name is Brinda Jr. But please don't blame him for this.
29:23Got a hit at a post-war nursing home. Looks like the same NPO is involved with it, too.
29:29Brinda Jr., age 32. After he was cyberized, he became an accountant at an employment agency.
29:35Says here he has difficulty socializing, but memorized a 200-digit number in seconds for an IQ test.
29:40A common characteristic for someone with a cognitive disorder like his. Find out which organization set him up as a hacker.
29:47Roger.
29:48All right, stand by. I'm going to dive into his ghost.
29:51There are only a handful of double ghosts that have ever been recorded. We can't say what dangers are involved.
29:57I want to know which of those ghosts is really pulling the strings here.
30:00You're doubting Emma? She's clearly the victim.
30:03I'll be the judge of that. And Bato, I want you ready just in case they try to backhack me.
30:09Two against two, huh? I like those odds better.
30:12Togasa, I'll need you to copy all the data.
30:19Roger. Hold on. I just got a call from my dad.
30:25Hey dad, it's been a while. Yeah.
30:28Bato, restrain Togasa!
30:31You got it. I'll become the lion.
30:39You gotta get rid of this old gun!
30:43Stay right there!
30:57You okay?
30:58Let's go.
31:02This is insane. I found a starter log on his comm. It's the virus.
31:07He must have kept the virus dormant within his neurochips. His infiltration was lightning fast.
31:13So it recalls feelings of hostility from the victims, imprints those feelings onto nearby objects, and plants false memories all at once.
31:20Oh boy.
31:22.
31:24There.
31:26.
31:31.
31:33There.
31:37Ergh.
31:40I can use deadly force, right?
31:53Unless you want to take a permanent vacation.
31:57You'd like that, wouldn't you?
32:02The Scarecrow is the virus's host, and now Togus's brain is the package, right?
32:07Yeah.
32:07But the root of infection is disturbingly selective.
32:10As in, it's only happening to people around you.
32:14Does that mean the onset is being controlled remotely?
32:17If there's a third party to switch it on, and that's feasible at least,
32:21it would be pretty handy when it comes to damage control.
32:25Sense military. Re-analyze yesterday's infection data.
32:29We don't want to chase the virus. We want to chase the enemy in possession.
32:33I wish to go on living even after my death.
32:37There's hidden data?
32:38For the following 620 reasons, we oppose mandatory cyberization and elect that it should be implemented by free choice only.
32:45Reason number one.
32:46We submit that software within the cyber ring is vulnerable to third-party tampering,
32:50which presents a wide number of possible negative consequences.
32:54Reason number two.
32:55Electronic alteration of memory in any shape or form can cause irreparable abnormalities in the totality of our independent will, referred to as the ghost.
33:03A perfect world without infection or infiltration? Do you think it's just that simple?
33:12Zubigy, you alive?
33:13I'm running a sim of the Scarecrow's brain.
33:17You have Amasuda's ghost infiltration team, don't you? Make me a back door.
33:20I see. You're going to use Scarecrow's cyberbrain structure to approximate the vaccine for the virus.
33:38Reason nine.
33:40There are currently 17 possible ways to alter our memories, and that number is likely to increase.
33:46Shit!
33:47Hey, Major!
33:48Why won't you use my ghost infiltration key to stop this?
33:52It's no use.
33:53Brenda won't let her.
33:55I will become anyone.
33:58I've inputted and erased so many ghosts, I don't know who I am.
34:03I disappeared, too.
34:04Are you saying Unit 501 was a target as well?
34:07Damn it! Are you the victim here or not?
34:10I'm afraid there was no other way.
34:12Just tell me what you're after.
34:29You can't disappear, Emma.
34:34Don't be afraid. We'll both go on living even after our deaths.
34:42They're here.
34:50An attack barrier.
34:53Oh, now what?
34:56Colonel!
34:57They're fighting each other with attack barriers.
34:59One of them got forwarded to me.
35:02Stronger than ours.
35:04I'm afraid you were infiltrated for a moment.
35:07Delete all relevant operational information from the Cyberbrain Net.
35:11We're going after Brenda.
35:12There's nothing left to do here.
35:18Damn stray dog.
35:28Looks like we've pulled it off somehow.
35:29Yeah, well, the host and the starter are still active.
35:48We can see the ocean, Emma.
35:50Oh, this is even starting to creep me out.
35:55What have we got?
35:57Colonel Hosomi from Army Intelligence was the one to recruit Brenda Jr.
36:01Scarecrow is an op cooked up by their old investigation section during a period when they were working on devices to perform ghost dubbing.
36:08Hosomi was able to get in on the Next Gen Weapons Review Committee through her work in the Foreign Affairs Department.
36:13Anyway, she didn't hold the position for long.
36:16It was your good friend Kurutsu of Unit 501 who took her seat.
36:20Vice Minister Kitahara recommended her.
36:23So after a lucky round of military job shuffling, Unit 501 was able to keep Hosomi in check.
36:28Reason 26.
36:29Even putting aside arguments concerning the moral implications of memory manipulation, false memories have proved to compel victims to commit suicide, murder, or other murders.
36:38So then which one of them built the pod?
36:40I can't say.
36:41He knows that Hosomi and Army Intelligence decided to rally by interfering with the Review Committee, though.
36:46I'd guess that somewhere during that mess the two hackers became aware of each other.
36:50You think the attack on Hari Madara is the connection?
36:52Unfortunately, we don't have any evidence they did it.
36:56But Hosomi is in the Overseas Weapons Development Faction, and Hari Madara is considered a domestic faction stronghold.
37:02Who's the guy who shot our bait?
37:04He's a hitman, from a Kuzan water cartel.
37:07Colonel Hosomi isn't afraid to play with fire to get what she wants.
37:11She used the pretext of wartime industry to stick her nose in Kuzan's affairs while she was stationed there during the war.
37:16If she can't keep the domestic faction in check and give the cartel the profit she promised, they'll snuff her out without a second thought.
37:23And the Firestarter virus?
37:25Couldn't pin down the trigger, but I caught a pretty obvious red flag when I analyzed the events.
37:30Even though Section 9 had domination over the building where the virus showed up, we couldn't find the infection route.
37:35Turns out it was a C4ISR network.
37:38A military communications system, then.
37:40I think I get the picture now.
37:42Colonel Hosomi is the one who activated Firestarter and patched the virus through to infect security in the VIP room.
37:49Her target was the woman the guard shot.
37:52Senior Vice Minister Kitahara, who's with the domestic faction.
37:55That whole massacre was a smokescreen for one murder?
37:58Guess the lady just likes starting wars.
38:00Okay, fine. But why snipe Tengirl?
38:03That was a feint, and an effective one, seeing as we conveniently delivered Tengirl to 501 headquarters.
38:09So her little performance at Section 9 was faked as well?
38:12It didn't matter if Aramaki was bluffing, since she could target 501 either way.
38:17An added convenience was setting up anti-cyberbrainist Emasuda as the massacre's ringleader.
38:22Hari Madara, 501. Kitahara.
38:25She came up with one plan to take down all three.
38:28What about the ghost of the girl who got dubbed?
38:30If she still has a will of her own, then why did she knowingly let Hosomi drag her into this mess?
38:35Whether she's cognizant of these events or not, I think the Scarecrow is the one you're after here.
38:40Well, he didn't necessarily right the virus.
38:43Hosomi did say that there was a broker.
38:45If she was telling the truth, then someone out there made and sold it.
38:49That's who I'm after.
38:50That's all speculation.
38:52Although our path is pretty straightforward if you're looking to settle this once and for all.
38:57I assume you have Togus' location.
38:59We'll meet en route.
39:00We're going to capture both ghosts.
39:02The Scarecrows and the girls.
39:04Togus is the problem.
39:06If you want to blow the brains out of one of your own teammates, a married one, don't ask me to do it.
39:10We do know for sure this infection plants false memories, right?
39:14He used a gun as a phone to talk to his dead father.
39:17Since it should be similar to the virus I had, I'll get infected, then you ID it and version up the makeshift vaccine you used before.
39:24You want to mirror your own brain?
39:26Worst case scenario, just put a bullet in my head.
39:29So now killing teammates is my job.
39:31If you don't like it, you can always make me the leader.
39:34A checkpoint?
39:35Dammit, it says you're a suspected terrorist.
39:41It must be Section 9.
39:42The ape used to be in Army Intelligence after all.
39:45He probably cut a deal with Hosomi to frame us.
39:47Or maybe that's what she wants us to think.
39:50I'll send our intel to Section 9.
39:52You're counting on that monkey even at a time like this?
39:55Not exactly.
39:56Okay, then what?
39:57My ghost told me to.
39:59Consider it a hunch.
40:05Wait, where are you going?
40:21Stop right there!
40:24We promised we'd go far away together.
40:33Goodbye.
40:34Alright, I released the package.
41:00I'm going on ahead.
41:01I told you to shoot if things go south.
41:04Take a damn gun with you.
41:09Major.
41:13Crap, she's a total wreck.
41:15If she's a neurochip version, she's not dead yet.
41:20We'll go on living after our death.
41:22They're not making a transfer.
41:34I think it's another ghost dub.
41:46That looks like a Hari Madara prototype.
41:48Major.
41:50Major.
41:51Two ghosts were just dubbed into that massive thing.
41:54We're going to stop it.
41:55Logicomas, give me everything you've got.
41:58Yes, sir!
42:02Where the hell do they need to go so bad that they'd abandon their lives to get there?
42:07The ocean.
42:08Wait, what?
42:09They're not going anywhere.
42:11We're ending this now!
42:13I don't know.
42:34I don't know.
42:39The weapon may be next gen, but the brains in there are rookies.
43:02Take out the eyes and the legs and it's done for.
43:09You're kidding me!
43:19You're kidding me!
43:26You're kidding me!
43:33You're kidding me!
43:38You're kidding me!
43:45You're kidding me!
43:50Now I've got you!
44:09Now I've got you!
44:21What's that?
44:22It's from army intelligence!
44:24Bastards called in an artillery strike!
44:33You cut off your entire sensory system?
44:36Son of a-
44:46You discarded intensity regions?
44:48Recognition systems?
44:49Memory fields?
44:50The net that maintains your architecture too?
44:53You even jettisoned your own ghost!
45:00If this is the price you're going to pay, then why would you want to keep on living?
45:14Shit!
45:24Shit!
45:25Shit!
45:27Shit!
45:28Shit!
45:29Shit!
45:30Shit!
45:31Shit!
45:32I should have to save it!
45:34What if the knife is not alive?
45:35Shit!
45:36Shit!
45:37It has to go to the end of the chairman.
45:42Shit!
45:46Shit!
45:47Shit!
45:48Shit!
45:49Shit!
45:50Shit!
45:51Shit!
45:52Shit!
45:53Shit!
46:24Goodbye.
46:54Goodbye.
46:56Goodbye.
46:58Goodbye.
47:00Goodbye.
47:02Goodbye.
47:05It's over.
47:06We're going to Kuzan by way of Benares.
47:08Return to base.
47:13The world's cyber economy is still in its infancy.
47:16I'll pay whatever it takes to reconcile with the cartel.
47:31On your knees!
47:32Hands in the air!
47:35Almost forgot you were wanted. Kinda ruins the mood.
47:46You and that Section 9, Chief, are two of a kind.
47:49When you find something that's dead and buried, you can't resist digging it up.
47:53If I can't count on you to do it, then somebody has to.
47:58You can't simply make things change, not this way.
48:02Our team serves as an independent offensive unit.
48:05We will stand outside of the system.
48:07Each member has been chosen for their irreplaceable skills and perspectives.
48:11When we're officially approved as top priority, we'll root out all the sorry bastards who would make the world suffer just to avoid a scandal.
48:22And you count me as one of them, I presume?
48:25I never changed your old channel, and I'll keep it open.
48:28When you decide you want to come home, you can contact me anytime.
48:45You're free to go.
48:46We've voided the wanted notice Colonel Hosomi put out.
48:50By the way, Vice Minister Kitahara wants to thank you for your excellent work.
48:55Is that some sort of joke?
48:56Well, a political one.
48:58Since her escape was conveniently stopped, Section 9 went through Colonel Hosomi's possessions.
49:03We confiscated a ghost-dubbing device and an outline of the scarecrow-op.
49:07I bet you couldn't arrest her, though.
49:09No. But she confessed anyway.
49:15You may have guessed, but the weapons that shot her chopper down came from Kuzan.
49:19She's apparently so afraid of the cartel's revenge that she's requested protective custody and a plea bargain.
49:26So they're going to let her off scot-free.
49:28I'll make sure that doesn't happen.
49:29The NPO she worked with is a front for dirty cyberbrain business.
49:33Not only that, we've detected the presence of Firestarter in her cyberbrain just like your intel said.
49:38A lot of people were injured or killed thanks to her. I'll make her pay somehow, even if I can't take her to court yet.
49:48Where did she get the virus?
49:50Through a broker, if we can trust her word. And she says she doesn't know a thing about its author.
49:55I see.
49:57Do you think it was really the cartel who tried to kill Hosani?
50:01Even if there was someone who wanted to prevent us from investigating her, I'm sure any trace of them would be long gone by now.
50:20Welcome back.
50:21All of you guys came out just to see me? Aw, I never knew I had such considerate subordinates.
50:27Figured we'd stick around in case some bad guys wanted to take a stab at you. But now that you're out, I'm sure you'll be the one doing the stabbing.
50:35One more thing. I told the Minister of Home Affairs that your team's contributions were essential in deterring the virus.
50:42So use your vaunted cyberbrain to read Public Security Commission report N2077. As of tomorrow, you'll get special authority.
50:50That means no official oversight. This case isn't over by a long shot. You'll investigate the high-level hacking virus and any organizations involved.
51:00So plan to attend plenty of funerals along the way.
51:03You know full well that I shot, ThaΓ―d. And you probably had a good hunch that our enemy was in intelligence. Not being able to question her was a big loss, right? If that's the case, why didn't you stop me?
51:15It's simple. Because I don't have your ghost infiltration key. No organization will ever have it for that matter. That was a promise I made to your late commander and I intend to keep it.
51:30So after all that crap, the only thing we figured out was that somebody out there used a couple of anti-cyberbrainist hacks.
51:48and an unlucky lady from a water company to wreak a ton of havoc.
51:51For a crime supposedly worth sacrificing lives over, there must be bigger players out there.
51:55All we have now are some money hungry war profiteers and a pair of oddballs that just wanted to cast everything away.
52:01Actually, I still don't get that. Which one of them was in charge? Or did neither of them have a will of their own?
52:16I'd have to say they did when they blocked my infiltration at least.
52:20But why would they try to run?
52:23When they had nowhere to go? And why transfer their ghosts into a giant weapon?
52:36That tank clearly had a lot of firepower, but it had a massive output system too.
52:42Could it be possible that their way of living on past their death was to use that weapon to output whatever was left of their consciousness onto the net?
52:50You think they were planning that all along? They just poured the last shreds of their ghosts into the net? I mean, can you even do that?
52:59It's been researched, but that sort of thing is impossible to prove.
53:05Still, in the moment their ghosts were lost, I somehow felt that they'd fused. That two lives had become one.
53:12That doesn't sound like you at all. Ghosts are the most fundamentally independent things in this world.
53:18Even if someone takes control of another person's ghost. At its core, it's still standalone. Just like our team, right?
53:27I guess so.
53:29Anyway, come on. I got a set of floaters with our name on them. Even if you were solid titanium you wouldn't sink. Guaranteed.
53:37You seriously want to go swimming in the middle of winter?
53:40We almost drowned last time. Can't be worse than that. Besides, it's not every day I get a chance to see you in a swimsuit.
53:46So that was your plan.
53:47Huh?
53:48You're pathetic.
53:49Now hold on a second! I was doing this all for you!
53:55Thanks, but I'll take a rain check.
53:57Dammit, I'm never being nice to you again!
53:59I'm never being nice to you again!
54:00I'm never being nice to you again!
54:01I'm never being nice to you again!

54:12You're welcome.
