1
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,240
I'm a soldier, znatchit ya...
I'm a soldier, and that means...
2
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,510
...i otvetchik i sud'ya
...that I am both defendant and judge.
3
00:00:14,510 --> 00:00:19,910
Ya stoyu na dvuh kontsah ognya
I stand at both ends of the fire.
4
00:00:21,110 --> 00:00:24,310
Ogibaya virazhi,
Leaning into the curves,
5
00:00:24,310 --> 00:00:27,650
obgonyaya smert' i zhizn',
overtaking life and death,
6
00:00:27,650 --> 00:00:33,180
ya begu srazit'sya s ten'yu lzhi
I'm running to fight the shadow of lies.
7
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:39,790
Skol'ko b nitej ne plyol obman,
No matter how tangled the web of deception is woven,
8
00:00:39,930 --> 00:00:47,300
pokazhet lik sveta istina...
truth will always illuminate the outline of the light...
9
00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:51,380
Save your tears for the day...
10
00:00:51,380 --> 00:00:54,680
...when the pain is far behind.
11
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,870
On your feet, come with me.
12
00:00:57,870 --> 00:01:01,320
We are soldiers, stand or die.
13
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,490
Save your fears, take your place.
14
00:01:04,490 --> 00:01:07,590
Save them for the Judgment Day.
15
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,020
Fast and free, follow me.
16
00:01:11,020 --> 00:01:15,730
Time to make the sacrifice.
17
00:01:15,730 --> 00:01:22,790
We rise or fall...
18
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,820
Manage to dig up
anything on him?
19
00:01:36,820 --> 00:01:38,120
I'm not making
much progress.
20
00:01:39,020 --> 00:01:41,290
Their protection's
tougher than I thought.
21
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,190
The Intelligence Agency is the newest
administrative organization, after all.
22
00:01:45,260 --> 00:01:47,930
It was created by uniting various
prewar intelligence agencies...
23
00:01:47,930 --> 00:01:49,870
...and the old Defense
Policy Bureau.
24
00:01:49,870 --> 00:01:53,820
But I found evidence of multiple instances of
illegal information manipulation relating to...
25
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,270
...the gathering and analysis of foreign and
domestic information, as well as SDA activity,
26
00:01:57,270 --> 00:02:03,700
inside that Strategic Influence Investigatory
Committee that Gohda's assigned to.
27
00:02:04,580 --> 00:02:07,340
And the plutonium incident
was among them, huh?
28
00:02:07,780 --> 00:02:09,190
That's right.
29
00:02:09,190 --> 00:02:10,550
What about his
personal history?
30
00:02:10,890 --> 00:02:13,320
He was part of the group that was headhunted
from the Defense Policy Bureau,
31
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,880
...and he quickly rose
to his current position.
32
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:21,300
But his record at the time wasn't anything
special. He was more like an outcast.
33
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,190
To tell you the truth,
the man's an enigma.
34
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,060
What's that?
35
00:02:26,540 --> 00:02:29,130
It's what Gohda looked like
when he was in the DPB.
36
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,670
He was apparently injured
in some kind of accident,
37
00:02:31,670 --> 00:02:35,080
but he's keeping the wounds
the way they looked back then.
38
00:02:35,980 --> 00:02:38,140
Definitely leaves less of an
impression than he does now.
39
00:02:38,780 --> 00:02:39,750
Okay.
40
00:02:39,950 --> 00:02:43,580
Call off the background search for now.
We're getting new instructions from the Chief.
41
00:02:43,850 --> 00:02:45,080
- Roger.
- Roger.
42
00:02:50,290 --> 00:02:54,730
Oh, man... Straight from an all-nighter
to a lunch meeting, huh?
43
00:03:09,310 --> 00:03:12,140
You're probably wondering why
I called this emergency meeting.
44
00:03:12,410 --> 00:03:15,150
It is to lay out our policy
in regards to a response...
45
00:03:15,150 --> 00:03:18,310
...to the string of incidents that
have been happening lately.
46
00:03:18,590 --> 00:03:21,490
Fine, but I'd like to belt
that son of a bitch first.
47
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,950
I agree with him.
48
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,420
The CIS' actions are clearly
meant to put pressure on us.
49
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,360
I don't feel like keeping my mouth shut and
letting them get away with it a second time.
50
00:03:30,670 --> 00:03:33,570
Relax. I don't like it
any more than you do.
51
00:03:36,470 --> 00:03:40,070
Even so, it seems to me that you've been
making a lot of trips to see the Prime Minister.
52
00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:45,140
Don't you think it's the P.M. Herself
who wants to slap a leash on us?
53
00:03:45,450 --> 00:03:46,720
I find that unlikely.
54
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,520
It's true that she is merely a figurehead
who was set up in hopes...
55
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,510
...of distracting the populace from the
previous administration's scandals,
56
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,620
but while she may or may not be a friend,
she most certainly is not a foe.
57
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,000
I believe the Major's already conducting
an investigation on her own about this,
58
00:04:03,630 --> 00:04:07,260
but there are signs of deliberate information
manipulation being carried out at the CIS...
59
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,970
...regarding the runaway helicopter incident,
as well as the plutonium transfer the other day.
60
00:04:13,140 --> 00:04:18,440
At this time, it's uncertain what the CIS
is planning to use these incidents for,
61
00:04:18,850 --> 00:04:22,180
but I believe these repeated pressures
being brought to bear against us...
62
00:04:22,180 --> 00:04:25,450
...are actions within the government, which
hopes to keep that "something" hidden.
63
00:04:26,220 --> 00:04:28,660
Is that true for the
Individual Eleven case, too?
64
00:04:30,130 --> 00:04:33,460
Because they're keeping us away
from the investigation...
65
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,290
...into the attempt on the Prime Minister,
which is a serious act of terrorism,
66
00:04:36,370 --> 00:04:38,830
even though we were the ones
most closely tied to the case.
67
00:04:41,540 --> 00:04:45,340
If the Prime Minister's a paper tiger
and it's the government who's behind this,
68
00:04:45,340 --> 00:04:48,110
we're still gonna be biting
the hand that feeds us.
69
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,540
You're gonna
do this anyway?
70
00:04:50,850 --> 00:04:52,340
Do you have a problem
with it?
71
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,910
I've been waiting
to hear you say that.
72
00:04:55,620 --> 00:04:58,890
Very well. Let's get on with
the mission briefing.
73
00:05:03,060 --> 00:05:06,800
All of the crimes in this file were committed
by various criminal groups...
74
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,360
...that have called themselves
the Individual Eleven.
75
00:05:12,370 --> 00:05:15,740
The illegal siphoning of funds
contributed to JNN-TV.
76
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,030
The bombing of a refugee
aid association.
77
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:24,550
Threats made to an NPO that had donated
free prosthetic bodies to refugees.
78
00:05:27,020 --> 00:05:29,920
The drowning of a back-alley doctor who
specialized in prosthetic bodies.
79
00:05:30,550 --> 00:05:33,820
The death of a net-bank president,
who was killed when hit by a train.
80
00:05:35,290 --> 00:05:38,060
The stabbing death of a
Democratic Party assemblyman.
81
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,690
The shooting death of Densetsu,
the popular cyberbrain-rapper.
82
00:05:43,730 --> 00:05:46,100
Threats made against
Nanyou Shimbun Press.
83
00:05:46,900 --> 00:05:50,900
And now, the attempted assassination
of Prime Minister Kayabuki.
84
00:05:51,570 --> 00:05:55,610
Of these nine cases, it had been
believed that the only one...
85
00:05:55,610 --> 00:05:58,940
...in which a suspect was spotted
was the attempted assassination.
86
00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:04,050
However, one other case has been found
in which a possible suspect was spotted.
87
00:06:05,290 --> 00:06:09,950
That's news to me. I thought the National Police
Agency refused to disclose any information.
88
00:06:10,330 --> 00:06:15,590
They did. Unlike during the Laughing Man case,
they are taking this one quite seriously.
89
00:06:15,900 --> 00:06:19,100
Admittedly, this is creating
unnecessary barriers.
90
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:21,600
This footage didn't come
from the police,
91
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,270
but is rather something I obtained
personally from an involved party.
92
00:06:25,540 --> 00:06:27,300
From a Nanyou
reporter, huh?
93
00:06:27,740 --> 00:06:33,610
That's right. Because of the Nanyou Shimbun's
critical stance against the refugee policy,
94
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,420
they've had shots fired into their building by the
Individual Eleven on three separate occasions.
95
00:06:38,820 --> 00:06:45,560
And this man showed up on their security
cameras on every one of those occasions.
96
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,300
His name is
Sho Kawashima.
97
00:06:48,630 --> 00:06:51,870
He started working as a
Taiwanese vegetarian cook...
98
00:06:51,870 --> 00:06:55,300
...at a restaurant near the Nanyou
building about a month ago.
99
00:06:55,870 --> 00:06:58,900
I turned up the fact that he used
to be an officer in the SDA.
100
00:06:59,410 --> 00:07:00,840
Where'd this intel
come from?
101
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:04,970
I sent Military Intelligence his face's
structural data and got their assistance.
102
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:10,240
So in other words, we're on better terms with
the military than the police now. Huh?
103
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,020
So, what do you want us
to do with this guy?
104
00:07:14,890 --> 00:07:16,530
For starters,
take him into custody.
105
00:07:16,530 --> 00:07:19,760
Look for anything of significance hidden
in his ideology and background.
106
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,390
At present, we can't prove any connection
between the CIS and the Individual Eleven,
107
00:07:24,700 --> 00:07:27,200
but if we unravel the thread
of what vector was used...
108
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,910
...to cause these standalone
terrorist groups to appear,
109
00:07:29,910 --> 00:07:32,200
we should also find out what
they hope to accomplish.
110
00:07:33,010 --> 00:07:34,500
You might be right.
111
00:07:35,540 --> 00:07:39,740
Batou, Togusa, Saito and Paz,
you take Sho Kawashima into custody.
112
00:07:40,350 --> 00:07:43,680
Ishikawa and Borma, you keep digging
into Gohda's background...
113
00:07:44,050 --> 00:07:47,320
...while at the same time investigating the person
who attempted to kill the Prime Minister.
114
00:07:47,790 --> 00:07:48,980
Roger.
115
00:08:08,780 --> 00:08:11,340
We're finally acting
like ourselves again,
116
00:08:11,850 --> 00:08:14,250
but I can't say that I understand
these guys at all.
117
00:08:14,550 --> 00:08:16,880
The Individual Eleven...
118
00:08:17,450 --> 00:08:21,790
The complaints in the other seven cases
were all the same old "free the refugees" stuff,
119
00:08:21,790 --> 00:08:23,660
but I don't see anything
linking 'em.
120
00:08:24,290 --> 00:08:28,660
Aside from that logo written the letters claiming
responsibility, there's no common factor, either.
121
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,500
If this is following the same pattern
as the Laughing Man case,
122
00:08:33,300 --> 00:08:35,870
that would make the copycats'
original that bunch...
123
00:08:35,870 --> 00:08:38,270
...that holed themselves up in the
Chinese Embassy, wouldn't it?
124
00:08:39,340 --> 00:08:43,070
Well, they were the first ones to
call themselves the Individual Eleven...
125
00:08:43,650 --> 00:08:46,510
Yeah, but none of the others
have called themselves that.
126
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,610
Even with us, the only reason
we know how to read that logo...
127
00:08:49,950 --> 00:08:53,620
...is that we stumbled across a thinker's essays
in the course of investigating the damn thing.
128
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,290
In a standalone-type crime,
129
00:08:56,290 --> 00:09:00,690
the intermediary who provides the motivation
isn't necessarily the original, remember?
130
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,600
Yeah, you're right.
131
00:09:02,900 --> 00:09:08,270
I get more of a sense of originality from
the bunch that's using this logo, though.
132
00:09:11,310 --> 00:09:15,070
Nasty! What the hell?
This is food for cyborgs!
133
00:09:15,210 --> 00:09:17,770
Relax, it won't kill ya.
134
00:09:18,010 --> 00:09:22,950
It's made of 90% gluten, plus a dash
of amino acid based micromachines.
135
00:09:25,220 --> 00:09:26,980
Hey. Any luck?
136
00:09:27,860 --> 00:09:30,850
Nothing. He hasn't gone home
to his apartment in over four days.
137
00:09:31,290 --> 00:09:33,520
I'll try staking out the
newspaper building.
138
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:34,820
Right.
139
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,800
Looks like we got a late start. Even hot tips are
useless when they go past their best-by date.
140
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,500
What now, Major?
Want us to maintain our stakeout?
141
00:09:45,540 --> 00:09:50,210
Taking him into custody is our top priority,
so all we can do is play the odds.
142
00:09:50,810 --> 00:09:53,610
The Nanyou Shimbun Press
is still receiving threats,
143
00:09:53,850 --> 00:09:56,610
and he'd been showing up to work
at the restaurant until yesterday.
144
00:09:56,820 --> 00:09:58,790
We're not exactly taking
an active role here, though.
145
00:09:58,850 --> 00:10:01,650
I've sent out reinforcements
to cover our bets.
146
00:10:02,020 --> 00:10:05,260
Our stakeout isn't gonna get any more
efficient with just three Tachikomas.
147
00:10:05,690 --> 00:10:07,490
Don't be like that,
Togusa buddy!
148
00:10:07,830 --> 00:10:11,230
We can maintain our individuality
even while we're synchronized now,
149
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,100
and we've even had agent
functions installed!
150
00:10:14,270 --> 00:10:15,530
Boo-yah!
151
00:10:18,210 --> 00:10:21,510
It's kinda like we're able to do that
"astral projection" thing now.
152
00:10:21,580 --> 00:10:23,640
This way, we can go off and
constantly absorb data...
153
00:10:23,710 --> 00:10:26,510
... while our bodies stay
in place at the scene!
154
00:10:26,650 --> 00:10:29,710
We call it a
"data smörgåsbord"!
155
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,350
That's enough chatter!
156
00:10:31,350 --> 00:10:34,650
Batou, increase the IR-System's
search functions...
157
00:10:35,090 --> 00:10:37,580
... and actively track down Kawashima
and take him into custody.
158
00:10:37,890 --> 00:10:38,860
Roger.
159
00:10:39,090 --> 00:10:40,790
Smörgåsbord! Smörgåsbord!
160
00:10:41,060 --> 00:10:44,520
When the heck did the Major
upgrade those guys?
161
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,560
You have to admit, we have
been shorthanded lately.
162
00:10:51,870 --> 00:10:53,810
Gosh, there's no sign
of this guy anywhere.
163
00:10:54,310 --> 00:10:57,350
You'd think that you'd be able to
track somebody down for sure...
164
00:10:57,350 --> 00:10:59,810
... if they tried to swap into
a PKF-use prosthetic body.
165
00:11:00,180 --> 00:11:02,340
Maybe he's not
in the country anymore.
166
00:11:02,750 --> 00:11:05,810
Almost makes you doubt the CIS'
information manipulation, doesn't it?
167
00:11:06,390 --> 00:11:10,290
Major, I found something interesting
on a local net.
168
00:11:10,860 --> 00:11:13,160
It's Gohda's senior thesis
from when he was a student.
169
00:11:13,860 --> 00:11:15,930
"Given that Cyberbrains
Govern Socialization,"
170
00:11:15,930 --> 00:11:19,200
"Which do they Favor?
Individuality or Collectivity?"
171
00:11:19,570 --> 00:11:22,330
"A Theory of Heroism from
the Standpoint of a Producer."
172
00:11:23,370 --> 00:11:25,870
What he writes in it
is surprisingly interesting.
173
00:11:25,870 --> 00:11:28,810
Like he writes in the title, he suggests
that in our current social structure,
174
00:11:28,810 --> 00:11:32,080
there's a tendency for cyberbrains to instill
a subconscious desire for collectivity...
175
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,380
...at the same time that they
eliminate individuality.
176
00:11:35,650 --> 00:11:39,790
But in response to this, they create
a leader as part of the system...
177
00:11:39,790 --> 00:11:43,220
...who consciously controls the
subconscious of the masses.
178
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,960
Almost sounds like he'd analyzed the
Laughing Man incident, doesn't it?
179
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,930
Yeah. But judging from
the date on it,
180
00:11:50,930 --> 00:11:54,900
this thing was written a long time
before the Laughing Man incident.
181
00:11:55,770 --> 00:12:00,970
After that, he studied Information Science,
Information Ethics, and Applied Informatics,
182
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,640
and then got a job at a private
company for a while.
183
00:12:03,950 --> 00:12:04,880
Private company?
184
00:12:06,580 --> 00:12:09,280
A mega-multinational that's
known to everybody now...
185
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,820
...for their prosthetic body technology
and micromachine fabrication.
186
00:12:12,820 --> 00:12:14,850
Poseidon Industrial.
187
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,830
Back then, they were Greater Japan
Technical Research.
188
00:12:25,030 --> 00:12:27,700
Take the superhighway
and head for Hakata.
189
00:12:28,170 --> 00:12:29,570
Understood, sir.
190
00:12:33,180 --> 00:12:34,340
It's me.
191
00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:38,310
Sorry, Aramaki, but I won't
be able to get away for long.
192
00:12:38,810 --> 00:12:40,300
When will you
get here?
193
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,150
Right on time.
Why?
194
00:12:42,450 --> 00:12:45,890
Oh, really? In that case,
how about that one restaurant?
195
00:12:46,390 --> 00:12:48,980
We shouldn't meet anywhere
too public, after all.
196
00:12:49,290 --> 00:12:50,550
That's all right
with me.
197
00:12:50,630 --> 00:12:53,190
Okay. I'll meet
you there, then.
198
00:13:03,670 --> 00:13:06,070
Man, that looks good...
199
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,670
I've hardly been home
at all lately.
200
00:13:09,950 --> 00:13:12,910
Do you even know
what that is?
201
00:13:13,010 --> 00:13:16,310
Eel, yeah? Even I know
that much.
202
00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:22,250
Guess again. That's a mock eel dish that's
made out of gluten and shiitake mushrooms.
203
00:13:23,590 --> 00:13:25,190
Taiwanese vegetarian cooking.
204
00:13:25,190 --> 00:13:28,660
What they call Su Shi is a special,
time-honored cooking style...
205
00:13:28,660 --> 00:13:31,150
...that was independently developed
by Buddhist priests.
206
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,990
It's like Buddhist
vegan cooking?
207
00:13:34,500 --> 00:13:35,600
Yeah, sorta.
208
00:13:35,900 --> 00:13:40,100
Unlike Japanese Buddhist vegan cuisine,
though, it doesn't cook its ingredients as-is.
209
00:13:40,610 --> 00:13:45,140
It plays around with beans and mushrooms
to duplicate meat and fish.
210
00:13:45,810 --> 00:13:49,580
It's pretty much the same as that sandwich
that you didn't finish eating.
211
00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:53,350
Are you serious?
212
00:13:54,820 --> 00:14:00,280
But why would those Taiwanese priests have
come up with such an elaborate cooking style?
213
00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:04,730
If they never knew what meat tasted like,
there wouldn't be any need for it, right?
214
00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:06,540
True enough.
215
00:14:06,540 --> 00:14:10,730
But before people join the priesthood,
they can eat whatever they want.
216
00:14:11,510 --> 00:14:15,440
You can meditate all you want, but you're never
gonna be able to erase those memories.
217
00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:17,500
I guess that
makes sense.
218
00:14:17,780 --> 00:14:19,680
Still, you sure seem to know
a lot about this.
219
00:14:20,150 --> 00:14:23,280
Don't tell me that you get nostalgic for
the taste of the real thing, too, Big Man.
220
00:14:25,090 --> 00:14:28,420
The brain has cravings for food,
even when you're a cyborg.
221
00:14:28,660 --> 00:14:32,490
That's exactly why they make
novelty food for cyborgs.
222
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:38,960
Taste as a playback device
for past memories, huh?
223
00:14:39,900 --> 00:14:42,230
Where would this Kawashima guy
have learned how to make this stuff?
224
00:14:42,670 --> 00:14:46,330
He probably picked it up while
he was stationed in Taiwan.
225
00:14:46,910 --> 00:14:48,710
Keep your eyes peeled,
you guys.
226
00:14:50,550 --> 00:14:51,810
Yes sir!
227
00:14:51,810 --> 00:14:53,040
What's up?
228
00:14:56,820 --> 00:14:59,990
{\an8}Our theme tonight is
"The Refugee Issue and Terrorism."
229
00:14:59,990 --> 00:15:03,150
{\an8}I'd like to review your argument again
and see if I have it straight.
230
00:15:03,790 --> 00:15:06,360
{\an8}Are you saying that you believe
the government's carelessness...
231
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,730
{\an8}... in losing sight of its policy objectives
has given rise to individualists,
232
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:13,540
{\an8}and that extremist elements have appeared who
are looking to a restoration as the answer?
233
00:15:13,540 --> 00:15:14,640
{\an8}You've got it
all wrong.
234
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,330
{\an8}They haven't come forward because
this administration is weak.
235
00:15:17,970 --> 00:15:20,940
{\an8}Defense-minded assemblymen were mulling
over the New U.S.-Japan Security Treaty...
236
00:15:20,940 --> 00:15:23,310
{\an8}...long before the present
administration took office.
237
00:15:23,810 --> 00:15:26,650
{\an8}They were thinking that they could
take the initiative from America.
238
00:15:27,450 --> 00:15:30,980
{\an8}That means that the individualists were
already present while that was going on.
239
00:15:31,550 --> 00:15:34,150
{\an8}On the contrary, the thing that
provoked the individualists...
240
00:15:34,220 --> 00:15:37,120
{\an8}... is the three million refugees
that are eating up our tax money!
241
00:15:38,230 --> 00:15:40,930
{\an8}They were thinking, "It's time for
this country to finally stand up...
242
00:15:39,770 --> 00:15:41,270
Dobashi
243
00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:43,230
{\an8}"...and do something
about those people!"
244
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:46,370
Now this
is interesting.
245
00:15:46,430 --> 00:15:49,870
{\an8}If that's true, we never should have
taken them in in the first place.
246
00:15:50,410 --> 00:15:52,370
{\an8}Talk like that
will ruin your career.
247
00:15:52,370 --> 00:15:55,010
{\an8}But do you have any idea how big
an increase in our tax rate...
248
00:15:55,010 --> 00:15:58,410
{\an8}... the Refugee Action Policy
caused after that?
249
00:15:58,410 --> 00:16:02,950
{\an8}And that tax money is vanishing into the darkness
under the pretext of the Refugee Action Policy.
250
00:16:02,350 --> 00:16:03,590
Is anyone there?
251
00:16:02,950 --> 00:16:06,450
{\an8}I have no idea why the ruling
party doesn't abandon...
252
00:16:03,890 --> 00:16:09,390
Bring me a disk with the recording of the
debate show that's on channel 3-3 right now.
253
00:16:06,450 --> 00:16:10,360
{\an8}... that action policy that's nothing more
than a facilitator for criminal activity.
254
00:16:09,390 --> 00:16:10,360
Understood.
255
00:16:10,590 --> 00:16:12,690
And keep on recording it,
of course.
256
00:16:11,230 --> 00:16:12,690
{\an8}It's no surprise.
257
00:16:12,690 --> 00:16:16,000
{\an8}Listen, if the refugees are ever
suddenly provoked by something,
258
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,470
{\an8}that is when they will truly
go out of control.
259
00:16:19,430 --> 00:16:22,570
{\an8}What's commonly referred
to as suicide bombings...
260
00:16:22,570 --> 00:16:26,510
{\an8}... is a weapon of last resort used when people
lose the last shred of hope for their future.
261
00:16:27,110 --> 00:16:31,440
{\an8}That's why it's vital that we encourage them
to support themselves economically.
262
00:16:31,810 --> 00:16:34,320
{\an8}Give them freedom under
the guise of liberation.
263
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,280
{\an8}What in the world
are you saying?
264
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,890
{\an8}The refugees won't be able
to solve their own problems...
265
00:16:39,890 --> 00:16:42,490
{\an8}... just by granting them freedom,
and you know it!
266
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,000
Tachikoma. Run a match
on that van's plates.
267
00:17:05,250 --> 00:17:06,510
Roger that!
268
00:17:08,980 --> 00:17:11,950
{\an8}Now that we've gone over the
particulars of the various terrorist acts,
269
00:17:10,360 --> 00:17:12,940
Fumiya Dobashi
270
00:17:11,950 --> 00:17:14,150
{\an8}why don't we begin discussing
concrete examples?
271
00:17:11,950 --> 00:17:12,990
Wait a minute...
272
00:17:14,290 --> 00:17:17,360
{\an8}Mr. Dobashi, what's this
terrorist incident that you say...
273
00:17:14,290 --> 00:17:15,590
His name was on that...
274
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:19,130
{\an8}... the National Police Agency
is trying to cover up?
275
00:17:19,130 --> 00:17:22,430
{\an8}I believe that everyone here
knows of the incident itself.
276
00:17:22,730 --> 00:17:25,330
{\an8}You're aware that since the takeover
of the Chinese Embassy,
277
00:17:25,330 --> 00:17:28,130
{\an8}there have been roughly eight
terrorist incidents, I take it?
278
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,410
{\an8}You mean the stabbings
of that cyberbrain musician...
279
00:17:31,410 --> 00:17:34,810
{\an8}... and the politician who supported a policy
of reconciliation towards the refugees?
280
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,010
{\an8}Yes, that's right.
281
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,280
{\an8}There is one fact regarding those incidents
that the National Police Agency...
282
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,750
{\an8}... has made no mention of
in their press releases.
283
00:17:41,750 --> 00:17:44,180
{\an8}Stop stringing us along!
Hurry up and tell us!
284
00:17:47,420 --> 00:17:49,550
{\an8}Have you ever seen
this logo?
285
00:17:50,930 --> 00:17:54,220
{\an8}Looks like it's regular van that's
registered to a retail chain.
286
00:17:54,930 --> 00:17:55,560
{\an8}Oh, it is?
287
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,130
{\an8}This logo is the one thing
in common on all of the letters...
288
00:17:58,130 --> 00:18:00,970
{\an8}... sent in as claims of responsibility
for the crimes.
289
00:18:01,140 --> 00:18:03,440
{\an8}I haven't heard
anything about that.
290
00:18:01,140 --> 00:18:03,940
How the hell
does he know that?
291
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,410
{\an8}Neither have I.
Who's your source?
292
00:18:03,940 --> 00:18:07,410
How's it going? You leaving all the
lookout work to the Tachikoma?
293
00:18:07,410 --> 00:18:10,050
{\an8}Well, that's a trade secret.
294
00:18:07,540 --> 00:18:09,210
No, I...
295
00:18:10,050 --> 00:18:12,040
{\an8}That's not very convincing, then.
296
00:18:11,150 --> 00:18:12,040
Here.
297
00:18:12,650 --> 00:18:17,950
{\an8}In that case, you might be a little surprised
when you learn how this logo is read.
298
00:18:13,350 --> 00:18:15,020
Is this any time for us
to be eating that stuff?
299
00:18:15,780 --> 00:18:17,950
Now what's your problem?
This is the real thing.
300
00:18:17,950 --> 00:18:18,980
That's not what I meant!
301
00:18:19,390 --> 00:18:24,090
This guy here... I think he's a member
of a reporter group that I met with earlier,
302
00:18:19,590 --> 00:18:22,590
{\an8}The proper reading for this logo
is "The Individual Eleven."
303
00:18:23,190 --> 00:18:28,130
{\an8}While that name is taken from the title of
an essay written some fifty years ago,
304
00:18:24,430 --> 00:18:28,060
and he knows top-secret information
about the Individual Eleven case.
305
00:18:28,130 --> 00:18:30,700
{\an8}The groups behind these incidents
who use this name...
306
00:18:30,700 --> 00:18:33,600
{\an8}... are individual groups that have appeared
without any ties with one another,
307
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,060
{\an8}and are all motivated by the goal
of refugee liberation.
308
00:18:37,370 --> 00:18:41,210
{\an8}Individualists whose first
appearance coincided with...
309
00:18:37,370 --> 00:18:39,440
What the hell
is this guy saying?
310
00:18:41,210 --> 00:18:43,910
{\an8}... the GSDA helicopters circling in
the skies above the refugee town.
311
00:18:44,250 --> 00:18:49,080
{\an8}These groups are motivated agents who are
genuinely trying to liberate the refugees.
312
00:18:46,380 --> 00:18:49,080
I hadn't thought of this
method of infection...
313
00:18:49,620 --> 00:18:50,550
Yes, sir.
314
00:18:49,980 --> 00:18:54,720
{\an8}I hate to interrupt, but we have
to take a commercial break.
315
00:18:50,550 --> 00:18:53,460
We can't tarnish the good
name of the police, so I thought...
316
00:18:53,460 --> 00:18:55,020
...this would make a good
incendiary device.
317
00:18:55,120 --> 00:18:58,660
I suppose it is. By the way, what's
being done about the carriers...
318
00:18:58,660 --> 00:19:01,490
...in the Nanyou case and the attempted
assassination of the Prime Minister?
319
00:19:02,030 --> 00:19:05,770
Sir. Regarding the Nanyou carrier, we're already
manipulating Public Security Section 1,
320
00:19:05,770 --> 00:19:08,860
so I believe we'll be able
to affect a purge soon.
321
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,170
As for the carrier who tried
to kill the Prime Minister,
322
00:19:12,170 --> 00:19:14,800
we believe he may be someone who went
to the peninsula as part of a PKF.
323
00:19:15,410 --> 00:19:17,010
His name is
Hideo Kuze.
324
00:19:17,010 --> 00:19:20,050
We arrived at this answer by working
backwards through the infection agents,
325
00:19:20,050 --> 00:19:21,910
so he is probably
our man.
326
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,710
So, it's you, Kuze?
327
00:19:27,890 --> 00:19:30,260
About that man, Gohda...
328
00:19:30,260 --> 00:19:32,430
I've asked people who worked with him
at the Defense Policy Bureau,
329
00:19:32,430 --> 00:19:34,950
but there weren't many people
who remembered him.
330
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,900
Even those who did could only remember
that he wasn't very memorable.
331
00:19:46,470 --> 00:19:50,310
But I did find the records of his psychoanalysis
testing from when he was employed there.
332
00:19:50,710 --> 00:19:54,010
Introverted, but has a strong sense of self
and desire to court publicity.
333
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,350
On the contrary, has tendency
to use others to express himself.
334
00:19:58,990 --> 00:20:01,980
That presents a somewhat different picture
from the man he is now.
335
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,750
What's the matter?
Aren't you going to eat?
336
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,650
It tastes the same
as it did in the old days.
337
00:20:07,930 --> 00:20:10,020
The same as the old
days, huh?
338
00:20:12,330 --> 00:20:16,740
And about that SDA officer named Kawashima
that you asked me about a while ago...
339
00:20:17,210 --> 00:20:19,800
I also had some inquiries about him
from Public Security Section 1.
340
00:20:20,110 --> 00:20:23,950
They came to us and asked for his facial data
because a hitman named Wong Chu Ren...
341
00:20:23,950 --> 00:20:27,810
...had taken Kawashima's face
and was hiding out in Chinatown.
342
00:20:28,050 --> 00:20:29,980
Why didn't you tell
me that earlier?!
343
00:20:31,120 --> 00:20:33,520
I just assumed that they'd already
contacted you about it.
344
00:20:33,890 --> 00:20:34,950
Major!
345
00:20:35,420 --> 00:20:39,190
It's strange that Section 1 would also be
involved in this in addition to the Nanyou case.
346
00:20:39,260 --> 00:20:41,090
Hurry up and get word
to Batou and the others.
347
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,630
I'm already on it.
348
00:20:43,770 --> 00:20:45,500
Wong Chu Ren?
349
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:48,130
The guy's an international
terrorist from Taiwan.
350
00:20:48,570 --> 00:20:50,640
The top brass have issued
a termination order on him,
351
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,700
but I've never heard anything
about him changing faces.
352
00:20:52,910 --> 00:20:56,640
So, are we being played,
or is Section 1?
353
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,070
Either way, the timing of this
is awfully fishy.
354
00:20:59,310 --> 00:21:02,510
Tachikoma! Just to be safe, secure the guys
in that truck from earlier.
355
00:21:03,150 --> 00:21:06,640
Mr. Batou! The subject just appeared
in alley behind the restaurant!
356
00:21:06,890 --> 00:21:07,790
Wha...?
357
00:21:18,300 --> 00:21:21,700
This country is too luxurious
for refugees to live in.
358
00:21:22,300 --> 00:21:25,670
But it's not affluent enough to
be able to take in any refugees.
359
00:21:30,350 --> 00:21:32,140
Wong Chu Ren, I presume?
360
00:21:36,780 --> 00:21:37,850
Keep 'em pinned down!
361
00:21:37,850 --> 00:21:38,840
Roger!
362
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,630
Put down your guns!
363
00:21:47,030 --> 00:21:48,090
Kawashima!
364
00:21:52,700 --> 00:21:53,900
Who the hell
are you people?
365
00:21:53,900 --> 00:21:55,130
On the ground!
366
00:22:01,210 --> 00:22:02,440
I'm sorry...
367
00:22:02,980 --> 00:22:05,910
The alley was too narrow for me
to act as a shield for him.
368
00:22:06,250 --> 00:22:07,810
You guys must be
Section 1.
369
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,110
Who are you?
370
00:22:09,220 --> 00:22:10,880
We're in the same
line of work.
371
00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:12,680
Take a good look
at his face.
372
00:22:12,990 --> 00:22:15,650
He's got prosthetics,
but his face ain't one of 'em.
373
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,720
In other words,
this guy ain't Wong Chu Ren.
374
00:22:19,690 --> 00:22:23,930
What's going on here? The intel
we had at Section 1 was solid.
375
00:22:25,770 --> 00:22:27,230
You guys work
with Motoko...
376
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:32,440
This means you guys just got played.
Just like we did.
377
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,440
378
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,100
Finding out a galaxy...
379
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:16,060
...of planets and stars within me...
380
00:23:16,250 --> 00:23:18,720
Listening to each of them...
381
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,710
...singing the same silent melody...
382
00:23:22,710 --> 00:23:26,720
I've never seen such beauty...
383
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,010
In possibility...
384
00:23:30,010 --> 00:23:34,520
No speck of doubt or fear...
385
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,010
Wake up!
386
00:23:36,010 --> 00:23:38,710
I hear a voice,
387
00:23:38,710 --> 00:23:42,650
hear a voice calling out to me...
388
00:23:42,650 --> 00:23:45,160
I see inside,
389
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,690
see the light now ever holding me...
390
00:23:48,690 --> 00:23:52,030
All the truth, all I need...
391
00:23:52,030 --> 00:23:56,830
...to make of this reality, it's inside...
392
00:23:56,830 --> 00:24:02,640
The beauty within the shell...
393
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,340
I hear a voice,
394
00:24:05,340 --> 00:24:09,280
hear a voice calling out to me...
395
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,790
I see inside,
396
00:24:11,790 --> 00:24:15,320
see the light now ever holding me...
397
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,660
All the truth, all I need...
398
00:24:18,660 --> 00:24:23,460
...to make of this reality, it's inside...
399
00:24:23,460 --> 00:24:28,120
Right here within the shell...
