No one can play in the sculpture garden

Petrified faces are watching in the dark

Fortune is calling you in this mystical world

You'll find a way

Cloud in the mists of time

You must take your aim and play your game

Emotional neglect is the price that you must pay to your desire

It's Alsatia

You just believe in the lie to forget the awful truth

You know the disturbance never ends

There's no end to this struggle to seek eternity

Even giving up

Is only permitted at the end of time

My prayers won't reach...

Cause disarray

The recollections carved in my mind

Pile up on a painful tomorrow

An intoxicating distortion has continued

Since my familiar past

Search for the truth

The scars carved into my body

Are a warning of the future

The maddening past brings forth

A sweet intoxication

Missing Person Sayara Yamanobe

...

...

Ow...

Huh?

Mimi, bring me a glass of water.

Okay!

There you go.

Vodka means water in Russian.

Besides, you prefer this to water, don't you?

Now that you're more cheerful, let's do our best at work!

You have to take your job seriously!

Job, huh?

I keep telling you that you should get an eye exam.

It's the same as before, right?

But it may have gotten worse.

That's not possible.

Huh?

Bye.

Hey, Rin.

I saw that the truck was about to hit a cat, and then its tank exploded.

Where did that cat go?

No clue.

It went that way.

Thank you.

Excuse me...

Hey!

Come with us!

You know why, right?

Wh-What are you talking about?

Hey, wait a minu—

Please stop this!

Shut up and come with us!

Wait.

Y-You bitch!

Let's go.

Eh?

Wh-Where?

My, that isn't the sort of thing you should be asking a lady?

Ow...

Shouldn't we run?

I hate running.

Rin!

Didn't you go looking for a cat?!

I brought back a man instead of a cat, as you can see.

Yeah, make yourself comfortable.

Our house is your house.

Okay...

All right...

And?

"And?"

What happened?

Well, I don't really know either.

I don't know why they tried to pick a fight with me.

I apologise for getting you involved.

It's just...

Just?

I had a feeling you could help me.

You're always bringing back guys like this, Rin.

Is her name Rin?

Yes.

And I'm Mimi, forever.

And?

Um, well...

Who am I?

Do you have amnesia?

No, I have my memories.

My name is Kouki Maeno.

I remember my address and phone number as well.

Even what I had for dinner last night.

But I don't have any emotions.

It's a strange feeling.

I'm sure that I'm Kouki, but I somehow can't confirm it.

How should I say it?

It's as if I'm pretending to be someone else.

Then...

Do you have any idea who attacked you?

Not the slightest clue.

When I came to, I was just standing around.

Even though she doesn't look it, Mimi is older than you.

You have no idea why you were in Kabuki-cho, right?

It's not like that.

I don't have any memory of that.

If I recall correctly, I left the house this morning and went to the university.

And when I came to my senses, I was there.

Okay.

Yes?

Let's leave it until tomorrow.

Sorry?

Again?

Don't leave for tomorrow what you can do today.

U-Um...

Let's drink.

If you drink now, that weird feeling may be gone when you wake up.

Okay...

Yep, yep.

Cheers!

To our fated meeting.

C-Cheers.

Ah, what a waste.

A drop of alcohol is equal to a drop of blood.

R-Right.

Yes?

Yes.

You're right.

Yes.

Huh?

Can you see it?

Right.

Maybe it's closer than we expected.

Good morning.

I see you have a hangover.

You were drinking with us, after all.

Here.

Thank you.

This is...

There's brandy in it.

The best drink for a hangover.

How are you?

How do I feel?

I still feel sick.

I didn't mean that.

Do you feel like your real self?

I guess it was no use after all.

You seem physically normal, though.

Well then, let's go.

Where?

To find you.

Kouki Maeno, twenty years old.

Sophomore at Joukou University, economics major.

Father: Kiyoshi Maeno.

Mother: Ryouko.

That's correct.

Maeno, huh?

It's a strange feeling somehow.

Although it's my house, I don't feel like I was born and raised there.

And when I look at my mother, she feels like a stranger.

She doesn't seem to be worried about you.

I often sleep at my friends' houses without telling her.

Your friends' houses, huh?

Male friends.

Really.

Wh-What the hell?!

They don't seem to have driver's licenses or ID cards.

I wonder if they're professionals.

P-Professionals?

At coercion, extortion, abduction and so on.

If they're professional thugs, I wouldn't be a match for them.

Ueyama Estates?

Hey, Rin.

Yo.

Do you feel like working with us?

Of course not.

Being a domina isn't really my taste.

That part would sell like hotcakes...

Do you know him?

I'm sure you know that information doesn't come cheap.

How about the whereabouts of that girl you're looking for?

You know where she is?

Please tell me!

That girl—

You first.

Ueyama Estates, huh?

Where have I heard that before?

Okay, okay...

I don't know.

It must be a dummy company for some group.

What?

That aside, tell me where she is!

When I feel like it.

I'm begging you, Rin! She's deep in debt!

Rin!

Bro.

Tamotsu!

Over here!

You idiot!

If someone sees—

Welcome.

A blended coffee, please.

Right away.

What if someone sees us?!

Will they think you're being immoral?

I'm single.

You know that, don't you?

W-When did you...?!

Just kidding.

Don't scare me like that.

And who's this guy?

It's a bit complicated.

Regarding the matter we discussed on the phone...

How can a police officer tell you something like that?!

Oh?

Then, I'll tell what you did last year...

I got it.

On the surface, Ueyama Estates is a reputable medium-sized company.

Actually, it's a front for the Chino group.

Aren't they yakuza?

Then, why do they have a good reputation?

Do something about this kid.

I'm not your teacher.

I can't teach you everything from scratch.

It's all right to ignore him.

Does the Chino group have connections to other companies?

They're connected to many big companies.

If you're careless, you'll get your fingers burned.

They have especially deep connections in real estate.

They're better known as land sharks.

Kakubishi Estates and Misutomo, to name a few.

Companies like Aoyama Pharmaceutical,

Toyama Industrial Enterprises, and Sky of Japan are involved as supporters.

Aoyama Pharmaceutical?

Did you remember something?

Yes.

About a month ago,

if I recall correctly, my senpai introduced me to them because they paid well...

...and they were testing a new drug.

I guess I'll give it a shot.

Hey!

I don't know what you're involved in this time,

but use a little discretion.

Thanks for the advice.

You're always so kind.

I-It's not like that!

This is the Managing Director of Nakayama.

Ah, hello.

Pleased to meet you.

What a pity.

That was our chance to get to know each other better.

As expected from a Managing Director.

He did everything by the book.

I hear you can't die...

I can't die because I'm a bad person!

I see...

Then, I'll kill you again and again!

Room service.

Should I leave it in front of the door?

Or should I bring it back later?

Can't talk right now!

Who's your client?!

Apos?

Answer me!

The anonymity of the client is absolute!

I shot you!

Only the good die young.

Y-You are...

Geez...

If you're hungry, there's food in the fridge.

Oh, come on.

Something bad happened after all?

Beats me.

Don't do anything weird.

Kouki's looking at us.

Yeah, yeah.

And how did you do?

A cat?

I couldn't find much.

The mail files were corrupted, so I couldn't check the contents.

But it seems there was a lot of mail traffic between the Sayama Research Institute...

...and Aoyama Pharmaceutical on the day you brought Kouki here.

The Sayama Research Institute doesn't ring any bells.

Guess we'll have to confront them head on.

Will this be all right?

Trust Mimi's skills.

But...

Is something the matter?

It's nothing.

Are you...

How should I say it?

Different?

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

No...

And you got involved in all this because of me...

Don't worry about it.

It's a bit late, but who are you guys?

Jacks of all trades, I guess.

And what about repayment?

You mean money?

Oh yeah, I'll think about that.

Good work.

Please wait there for a moment.

Did he find out?

You look much prettier in person.

Thank you very much.

So?

Do you remember anything?

Welcome.

Hey you, this way.

I walked straight along here.

Hey, what's wrong?

Kouki?

Did you remember something?

Yes.

This way.

From your condition, I'd say it was pretty bad, right?

Yeah.

Now's your only chance to turn back.

You asked me who you were.

Maybe you can find the answer here.

But you might be better off not knowing.

The decision's up to you.

I...

...want to know.

No. I need to know.

Okay.

Then it's a deal.

Is something wrong?

Oh sorry, he's feeling sick.

Could he rest somewhere?

I'm sorry, but outsiders aren't allowed in my office.

It's okay.

We were gonna check this room too.

We'll take care of it once he feels better.

Okay. Bye.

Could you lend me a cigarette and a lighter?

Sure.

Thank you.

I'll bring it back to you later.

Hurry up and finish your job.

Yes, thank you.

The coast is clear.

Okay.

The guard was carrying a gun.

From here on out, it'll be dangerous.

Yes.

According to the blueprints Mimi provided,

the second floor seems suspicious.

However, we'd have to pass through the security officer's room.

So this is the only choice.

Light the cigarette.

O-Okay.

Um...

Say one word and I'll hit you!

I'm Sayara Yamanobe.

Just call me Sayara.

Saya is fine, too.

And you are...?

Oh, it doesn't matter.

I'll find out soon enough.

Say, do you know how many holes a human body has?

Two for the eyes, two for the ears,

two for the nose, and one for the mouth.

And three here.

Ten holes in all.

Though men have only nine.

Through piercing, men can change the number of holes that God gave them.

Since ancient times, men have used piercing to set themselves apart from their God-given form

Don't you think so too?

It looks good on you.

Or should I put it here?

It'll make your body clean.

From now on, I'll pierce you bit by bit.

And do many other things, as well.

You're such a sadist.

My, are you scared already?

But don't be.

Don't speak yet.

I don't want to start with those kinds of words.

First, the eleventh hole.

Hey, you're going to die.

Pretty soon.

At...

At Shinjuku...

The tanker accident...

It was transporting Kouki...

Yes.

It was awful, from what I heard.

We had to go through all the trouble of deceiving the police,

because it was a special vehicle for transporting a test subject.

The head office is full of idiots.

It's their fault for taking him away from me.

'Against our recommendations,' my foot.

Why Kouki?

Very well... I'll tell you.

He's a compatible clone.

I'm an expert in bacteria.

I have discovered that a certain RNA bacterium...

...interacts with human DNA and multiplies rapidly.

Thus, I transcribe the information in the brain.

How—

How did I do that?

That's a company secret.

Well, it's not done through machines.

And the quantity of information is enormous too.

The development of the software would have taken forever.

It's done through chemistry.

Doing something like that...

You ask why?

It's the first step to becoming immortal.

What's so funny?

Did Apos trick you?

Apos?

Who are you talking about?

Am I wrong?

Really, humans are so persistent about becoming immortal.

Did you know... some people are so proud that they turn into monsters if you make them mad?

Especially if you make fun of their research.

Ah, the chief's terrible, isn't she?

This is a real mess.

And she was a real babe.

Violating her like this...

Let's take care of it.

It's all right now.

The person who brought you here is already dead.

Thank you for coming back.

I'll never let go of you again.

No matter what the bosses say, okay?

Ow...

Good.

There appears to be another intruder.

Take care of it.

You can use deadly force.

Yes ma'am.

I don't know who it is, but they'd better not go into the experimental area.

And I hate all this running...

Damn!

Evacuate!

Hurry up and evacuate!

So what she said was true.

Kouki... he's...

Hang in there.

Can you talk?

I've locked the door.

What about the cameras?

Reception in Section B was poor to begin with...

Oh, what a shame.

So much for show time.

Are we really opening that area?

P4 separated. Unlocking the door.

You people...

You people were turned into this by Sayara...

Yes... you're no longer...

I'll bring you peace now.

To think that the barrier wall of Section B would break...

The contamination will leak in here as well.

What should we do?

Let's see...

Take the important documents from A to C.

We'll burn this place down and Section B with it.

B-But if we do that, the main office will...

Don't underestimate it, just because the rate of infection is low!

Or do you want to end up like them?

U-Understood!

Who's there?!

No way!

You're supposed to be dead!

No way!

You're right.

I did die.

Ouch!

It hurts! It hurts!

No! Mama! Mama!

I am...

...what you're trying to achieve.

This can't be...

H-Help me...

Help me...

Help me!

Please open the door!

I hate to say this, but...

...life is fleeting... and you shouldn't toy with it.

This is...

What was I...?

Let's go back.

Am I...

...a clone?

Was that why I couldn't feel anything?

What should I do now?

Decide for yourself.

I won't say that I understand your pain.

Your pain is something only you can understand.

I can't understand it.

I won't tell you that you're trying to run away from that pain.

Because that's another way of being saved.

Living with the burden of that pain or running from it...

Decide for yourself.

Because it's your life.

Thank you very much for saying that.

Hey...

...aren't you drinking?

No...

That's why you should've picked up the cat instead of a man.

Yeah.

I do regret it.

Coming!

You...

Rin!

Rin!

I'm the only one who can live my life.

So... can I work here?

Employment decided!

Let's drink.

Yay! Let's drink!

Come on. We're celebrating!

Let's celebrate!
