This Yanagawara Camp
is used as CAAC Special Forces' base
whenever they enter the Area.
The Guillotine Shutter's electric shock
has paralyzed the Matter in this area.
It will be safe for now.
What? We can enter through the front?
I haven't been here in a while.
That's true.
Who the heck is that guy anyway?
I don't know.
External insulation and circulation systems checked.
We can relax here for a bit.
You can take off your suit.
There's showers here.
Yahoo!
Watch my Live Suit, Haruka!
Hey! Kaede!
I tried, but I can't get it off.
The separator has been activated,
so the Live Suit must have high affinity with your skin.
Really? Is that so?
I guess your suit is pretty fond of you.
That is everyone's duties.
There are no more resupply points ahead.
Ensure you're well supplied.
- Got it. - Yessir.
Minase, you're on guard duty.
Yes, sir.
- Excuse me. - What?
Can I accompany him?
I want to get a good look at the Area.
It's not safe!
Join me!
I'll be your bodyguard.
Thank you.
But...
From what our sensors tell us, this area is secure right now.
If you're leading us
to Primary Point, you should be able to make a call like that.
All right, we're going to need you now.
In human form?
Maybe the activity the other day transformed the Matter.
Or the transformation itself caused the activity.
Anyway, I'll do what I can to support you from here.
- Thanks. - Besides,
I was supposed to go to Tokyo, but this makes things easier.
I'll pay her a visit.
At any rate, I'll keep Hori in charge.
Keep me informed of what happens in the capital.
Bye.
I'm your ride, Superintendent Nanbara.
I told them I didn't need a...
Sorry, you're a director now, right?
Kurose?
I didn't know that Divers have such an amazing job.
No, it's not as amazing as you think, Tachibana.
Call me Aiko.
Then call me Kazuki.
- Aiko... - Yes?
So...
What was it you said at K1?
You need to get to Primary Point to save your family? Is that true?
Did I say too much?
No. I'm sorry.
Well, it's really quiet.
That Guillotine sure is powerful.
Why are you here?
I was worried about you alone, so I came to help.
Aren't you and Seri supposed to be resupplying?
I get a lot more work done without Kaede around.
Look at all this.
The government can do amazing things, even in a hurry.
These resources are incredible
Hydro, okay.
It's in pretty good shape for being abandoned.
Come in.
You know...
I'm amazed you're carrying out this bold plan,
Yuya Kanzaki.
I never could have done it without your cooperation.
As always, you have keen intuition.
This is good timing. Aiko Tachibana has gone missing.
You already know about it?
It has sent the hospital into a flurry.
Do you know anything?
- No. - I see.
You must know something.
It's green.
Oh, no!
You can tell me. We're still friends, even though you dumped me in college.
Are you here to deal with the Matter's activity these past few days?
Yes.
But you can easily give orders from Tokyo.
What is the real reason you're here?
No way!
Your dad died in an accident,
and your mom and brother went missing in the Burst?
That's crazy!
Hey!
But you're going to save them? You really think they're still alive?
Jeez! You're so damn insensitive!
This river...
My family often used to visit the upper end of this river.
Dad loved fishing.
When I was little,
I really enjoyed spending time with my family,
so I came with him.
But I slowly got annoyed at those kind of things.
Also, Dad got so busy with work
that he hardly ever came home.
But when he did come home, he would say,
"Let's go fishing, Aiko.
Me, you, Mom, and Ryota,
let's all go and catch a big one."
We never caught any big fish.
When I think about it now, I realize that
he was trying to make time with his family in his own way.
But since he wasn't very social,
that was all he could think of doing.
It's too late now to start wishing we could be together.
It's sad I only just realized how important they are to me.
What? Important? Family?
Of course! You have...
No, I don't!
When I was born, my dad was already gone.
After I was born, my mom seized her chance to run away with another guy.
I was left behind and passed around my relatives.
I feel relieved now that I'm alone.
That's your family, though!
You ran away from your own family, right?
Everyone in Town knows
you're a spoiled rich kid who needed an escape.
That's not true!
All I wanted was to decide how to live my own life!
I was sick of people bragging about happiness and misfortune!
That's what an escape is.
I had an arm eaten off by Matter and got an artificial organism arm!
Who's bragging about misfortune now, loser?
You special ordered a new arm made from artificial organisms!
You're still a spoiled rich kid!
Having fun out here?
Quit fighting and get some rest.
Sagami...
Stay on your guard.
Right now, who knows what might happen inside the Area?
You can't know what's going on until you're on-site.
But without going inside the Area,
the information we can get is limited.
Aren't you sending in a recon team?
The Area is completely sealed off now.
Not a single person can get in.
Not a single person, huh?
It looks like the neutralizer you injected Aiko with is working.
Make sure the Divers don't find out.
Most Divers know Matter is attracted
to biologically active substances excreted by a composite
of real and artificial organisms.
I know that much.
Can I ask you something?
How do you think the Matter was created?
Aiko Tachibana was in an accident. The treatment that split her
set off abnormal artificial cell proliferation in the duplicate body.
That's all I can say for certain.
What was the cause?
Was it a warning not to attempt something taboo?
It has nothing to do with any of that.
We simply didn't know enough about what artificial organisms could do.
You mean even Toshihide Yura didn't know enough?
That's what I'm saying.
So, what are you going to do with her fake body?
Return it where it belongs.
And let his creation live?
Will that atone for the sin Yura committed?
Don't worry about that.
Even if we don't know the cause,
putting things back the way they were is a simple process.
Simulations show...
I'm not asking that.
Her brain and body function just like a real person.
Can you really say that her replica is not human?
She is clearly not human.
She's no more than...
I've finished refitting the Bipod batteries.
Daisuke.
I'll have everyone load all the vial cartridges in here later.
From here on, Matter activity will continue to rise.
Even so, do you still want to go?
So, who is he?
What?
Who is Yuya Kanzaki?
- A classmate. - A classmate?
Actually, I don't know him that well.
Really?
He transferred just before summer break.
That's when I first met him.
I was brought to you guys right after that,
and now we're all going to Primary Point.
What? Are you kidding? That's totally fishy!
Why go to such a dangerous place with him?
Kazuki!
Divers never get involved in their client's business.
I know that! But this isn't a normal retrieval!
It's exactly the same. Isn't that right, client?
Shinoyama said to move
all personal belongings from the Bipods to the Beetle,
and he'll be taking over guard duty for Sagami in one hour.
As a thank you, I'll give you a warning.
Don't get any more involved with what's happening in the Area.
You see, I'd like to remain good friends forever.
Bye.
I hardly looked inside before bringing this.
"SUMMER NOTEBOOK TWO"
I'm such an idiot.
Oh, this is...
Happy birthday.
Do you want some help, Aiko?
I'm okay!
What?
- What? - What happened?
What is it?
Unidentified living organism detected in North Block storage area.
I repeat...
What happened?
What?
That's a sample organism that Holos Habilis gave to a few customers.
Holos Habilis? That's the company Dad worked for.
So, this thing is yours, Aiko?
But when I dropped it, it was just a ball.
It was in storage mode.
Did the electric shock wake you up?
Must be an exposed wire.
It's from your dad?
Yes. It was a birthday present.
But the accident happened right after that,
so I never found out what it was.
Hey!
- What's its name? - Huh?
Doesn't have one?
I just found out it's a living creature.
It's very valuable.
This Holos type is an artificially created complete living organism.
What? Its whole body is an artificial organism?
Its development was suspended after the Burst.
I didn't know there were prototypes.
My body
is made of the same stuff as the Live Suit and this animal, right?
Yes.
Since your whole body is made from artificial organisms,
both you and that sample are extremely precious.
You make us sound like objects.
You are.
No, to be more precise,
you're a system for artificially creating life.
That's not what I meant.
But it's the truth.
The system that gives you life
is something humans have wanted a long time.
Stop it!
You don't understand, Kanzaki!
Um...
I'll be taking over for Sagami soon,
so if you're done with the Live Suit repairs...
It can't be.
Nobody wants their body to be like a monster.
A present?
If Kurose takes over as the company head after Dr. Kiryu,
he's sure to stop Cell Assembler Two research
until the Burst is brought to an end.
I won't allow this country's economy to be ruined any more.
I agree with you.
We shouldn't slow the progress of Kiryu Research.
So, I'm doing something about it.
- No luck! - I can't find her!
Why did you leave her alone?
This is bad! A contamination suit is gone.
- What? - What?
Matter activity detected near facility.
We have to do something. I have to tell Daisuke.
Hey! Where are you?
Where are you?
Hey! Where did you go?
Where are you, Tachibana?
That doesn't hurt.
Of course not.
I was saved by the same stuff that little guy is made of.
If not, then I'd be...
Where am I?
No, I still haven't found her. I'll look a little...
Even if it's safe around here, you can't go out on your own.
We don't want to risk lives over this.
I'm sorry.
I admit you're pretty brave.
You're going to a place most Divers would never come close to.
So, you should understand him.
Like you, he's doing his best
to move on with life while carrying a huge burden.
We may not know who he is,
but you can at least understand that much about him.
It's a snow grouse!
Oh, Dad! Don't film me! Film the snow grouse!
Give it to me, Dad!
Today, Dr. Yura, Dad, and I came to Murodo together.
Dr. Yura, do you like the lunch that I made?
I knew you'd like it!
Maybe I'll become your wife one day..
Yuzuha.
Even Yura couldn't bring you out of your coma.
All that stuff about the Yura Notes must be a lie.
As your father, I promise to bring you back.
Aiko!
I'm very sorry, everyone.
Well, at least we found you.
Be more careful! It's not just your life at risk.
Hey!
Where is Kanzaki?
You found her?
Thank goodness.
I'm sorry. If I...
If I died...
I wouldn't be able to save Mom and Ryota, would I?
I can only save them if I'm still alive.
This is precious, right?
Yes.
I'm sorry.
Thank you, Kanzaki.
Hey, is Gummi on board?
Gummi?
That's its name because it's like gummy candy.
Looks yummy, no?
So random...
- I like it! - You do?
It's cute!
I told you.
Last night's alarm
was because Matter activity was detected near K2.
It's gotten this far?
It must be up to the K2 gate. We can't let our guard down.
Is everyone ready?
- Wilco! - Wilco!
Here we go!
Special comms vehicles
have just passed through Aimoto Dam and entered Area One.
I got it. Thank you.
Today's topic is a breach of trust by Susumu Kurose,
head of the Kurose Research Lab.
He is accused of misappropriation of funds and corporate embezzlement.
Then, let us begin.
