Shūichirō Keidō looked at the displeased Yang Rear Admiral, still wearing a Japanese-style smile, and apologized once again. "I'm terribly sorry."
"How are you going to take responsibility for the Roppongi incident, Shishigami?"
Yang Rear Admiral looked extremely agitated on the screen.

Haruka Ouma said, "Yes. It was discovered by accident during the development of a vaccine for the Apocalypse Virus."
Shūichirō Keidō picked up where Haruka Ouma left off. "We were also tracking the secret distribution channels involved, but Major Shuukai figured out the whole situation in just one week."
Yang Rear Admiral said, "A resourceful man."
Shūichirō Keidō said, "Extremely capable. Whenever he finds suitable prey, he puts everything into hunting it down, then strings it up."

Inori Yuzuriha continued, "Am I a bother? Do you think I'm a bother, Lin Guang?"
Lin Guang stood up and walked over to Inori Yuzuriha. She looked up at him, her eyes seeming just a little hurt.
