4 4 301 The source of the rumbling not only comes from Camu fighting against the enemy down below...

|

39 39 301 Just as he is about to reach his opponent, he picks up the motionless remains of a nearby Hetero-Creature with his scythe as a shield. Blocking the attack, the golden lightning from his scythe unleashes a thunderclap.

263 260 301 Column A, number 29. This is the address for Asimov in his terminal's directory.
|

264 261 301 Most of the time, Asimov is in his workshop where he cannot be reached. Only this address is able to reach him regarding top-secret research.
|
|||
|
265 262 301 In addition, only those involved in these top-secret projects know this address.
|
|||
|
266 263 301 If they are willing to use heavy-handed means to interfere with his plans, such as signal jammers, he has no other choice but to write this glimmer of hope on his hand.
|
|||
|
267 264 301 If his assumption is correct, Wanshi and Kamui will understand this clue as they check each invalid comm link.
|
|||
|
268 265 301 After all, they are sure to connect the dots while looking at the directory itself.
|

|
269 266 301 In order to make the number more apparent, Chrome once again struggles to gain control over his fingertip.
|

270 267 301 Pain. Deep, agonizing pain.

271 268 301 Prior to this mission, Chrome has not used pain to stay conscious for quite some time.

279 277 301 But now... There was no need for such a cold, relentless pursuit of "perfection."
|

280 278 301 Becoming a "Smith" was no longer his sole pursuit...
|

281 279 301 Perhaps, it is the sense of familiarity that gives him a little peace of mind or, perhaps, that he has already reached the limit.

346 343 301 Due to the large-scale battle in City 075, the Star of Life, which had a reputation for being busy, is now a hellscape of blood and vital fluid.

347 344 301 Before the battle even began, the staff anticipated a large number of casualties, but even as they try their best, they still cannot cope with the spreading disaster.

348 345 301 After the Longinus Arsenal destroyed most of the Red Tide, there were still mass casualties in the ruins of City 075.
|

398 395 301 A somewhat familiar face appears in the corner.

|
401 398 301 1 Wanshi You're still here...! 2
|
|||
|
402 399 301 Doctor A Haha! Well, there's no other place for me to go now, is there? 1
|
|||
|
403 400 301 Wanshi Anyway, I have a frame that needs maintenance. Is there space? 2
|
|||
|
404 401 301 Doctor A Can't you tell? 1
|
|||
|
405 402 301 The doctor laughs awkwardly.
|
|||
|
406 403 301 Wanshi It doesn't have to be in a maintenance room. He just needs a matching action module and vital fluid dialysis. 2
|
|||
|
407 404 301 Doctor A Are you going to operate? 1
|
|||
|
408 405 301 She hurries to the temporary maintenance table and checks the stock for Chrome's model.
|
|||
|
409 406 301 Doctor A All that's left is a hand module, but you can't replace it without a maintenance room. 1
|
|||
|
410 407 301 Doctor A After all, it's not as simple as just replacing the hand. 1
|
|||
|
411 408 301 Wanshi Did you check the reserves? The Star of Life used to also keep emergency supplies on hand. Those— 2
|
|||
|
412 409 301 Doctor A This is all we have. 1
|
|||
|
413 410 301 Doctor A We're already running on fumes here, but I can pull some strings and get you a vital fluid filter seeing as it's an emergency. 1
|
|||
|
414 411 301 She turns to Wanshi and says with a heavy heart—
|
|||
|
415 412 301 Doctor A Or you can think of another way, Dr. Wanshi. 1
|
|||
|
416 413 301 Wanshi ...I'll take the filter for now. 2
|
|||
|
417 414 301 She nods. Squeezing her way through the crowded corridor, she quickly returns with a vital fluid filter. Together, she and Wanshi hook up Chrome to the machine.
|
|||
|
418 415 301 Doctor A I recommend you get him out of here as soon as possible. 1
|
|||
|
419 416 301 She quietly whispers to Wanshi as they hook up the machine.
|
|||
|
420 417 301 Wanshi Why? 2
|
|||
|
421 418 301 Doctor A He won't get help, if you know what I mean. 1
|
|||
|
422 419 301 Doctor A If you ask why, all I can say is that the hospital is running out of supplies. 1
|
|||
|
423 420 301 Doctor A I'll be in trouble if I say any more. 1
|
|||
|
424 421 301 She clears her throat after hooking up the machine.
|
|||
|
425 422 301 Doctor A I've got work to do. If you think of another way, just leave the filter here. I'll come get it later. 1
|
|||
|
426 423 301 Wanshi Thank you. 2
|
|||
|
427 424 202 1 2 1
|

|
428 425 301 She nods, then disappears behind a corner marked Star of Life.

|
|||
|
431 428 301 1 Kamui Is this the only way? 2
|
|||
|
432 429 301 Wanshi We need to replace his dying parts now so that he has a chance to survive and recover. 1
|
|||
|
433 430 301 Wanshi But there aren't any available maintenance rooms or suitable parts. 1
|
|||
|
434 431 204 2 4
|
|||
|
435 432 301 Kamui What about somewhere else? Like A29? 2
|
|||
|
436 433 301 Wanshi ...I thought about that too, but what the hell does it mean? 1
|
|||
|
437 434 301 Kamui In puzzle games, this sort of code normally represents a password, location, or a particular spot in a large set of data. 2
|
|||
|
438 435 301 Wanshi The captain couldn't have left us a clue about something none of us know about, like a lock. The closest building related to A29 is a shop. 1
|
|||
|
439 436 301 Kamui Then that only leaves one possibility. 2
|
|||
|
440 437 301 Wanshi The directory? 1
|
|||
|
441 438 301 Before they had arrived at this conclusion, they had been pouring over the directory looking for people to call for help. It seems so obvious now.
|
|||
|
442 439 301 After the two reach a consensus, they quickly take out Chrome's terminal.
|
|||
|
443 440 301 Kamui Column A, number 29... Hey, 28 and 29 are both Asimov. 2
|
|||
|
444 441 301 Wanshi ...Let's give it a try. 1
|
|||
|
445 442 401 2 1515
|
|||
|
446 443 301 Wanshi presses the number in the directory.
|
|||
|
447 444 301 Wanshi ... 1
|
|||
|
448 445 301 However, no one answers their last glimmer of hope.
|
|||
|
449 446 301 Kamui ... 2
|
|||
|
450 447 301 As the dial tone continues to ring, a rare bead of sweat appears on Wanshi's forehead.
|
|||
|
451 448 301 Wanshi ...If I can get the replacement parts for his frame, I can try to replace them here. 1
|
|||
|
452 449 301 Kamui Want to contact the captain's father? He rarely talks about his family, but I've heard others mention him. 2
|
|||
|
453 450 204 1 7
|
|||
|
454 451 301 It's rare to see Kamui this serious. Wanshi looks up for a moment.
|
|||
|
455 452 301 Wanshi ...I've heard some rumors, but did you see the situation just now? They've obviously taken the captain's father into account. 1
|
|||
|
456 453 301 Wanshi ...I think we should keep trying to reach Asimov. 1
|
|||
|
457 454 204 1 4
|
|||
|
458 455 301 Wanshi presses the name in the directory once, twice, three times, four times, five times...
|
|||
|
459 456 401 2 1515

|||
|
460 457 401 500 2 1515

464 461 401 100 2 1515
|

|
465 462 301 Suddenly, there is a prompt to connect with them from the other end.

470 467 301 ??? Ahh!!!
|
|||
|
471 468 301 There is nothing in front of the communication monitor except a young scream.
|
|||
|
472 469 301 ??? S-s-sorry. I shouldn't have connected Mr. Asimov's comm link without his permission, but it kept ringing.
|
|||
|
473 470 301 Kamui Who's there? Forget it. Doesn't matter. Do you know where he is?
|
|||
|
474 471 301 ??? W-what? It DOES matter! My name's Rosa. I came to ask Mr. Asimov a few things...
|
|||
|
475 472 301 Judging from her childish voice and being unable to reach the camera, the girl had to be six or seven years old at most.
|
|||
|
476 473 301 Rosa He's not here. I think he's hiding so he can continue his research.
|
|||
|
477 474 301 Wanshi We've got an emergency. Where is he exactly?
|
|||
|
478 475 301 Rosa A-an emergency...? Go to Zone B3 of the Science Council. That's where he goes so no one bothers him.
|
|||
|
479 476 301 B3 is the new research building of the Science Council, which is fairly close to the Star of Life.
|
|||
|
480 477 301 Kamui Let's go.
|

|
481 478 202 1 2 1

482 479 301 AniZhuanchangBegin A ray of hope shines on their beleaguered faces. Kamui picks up Chrome again and rushes to the shuttle outside.

485 482 301 AniZhuanchangEnd The shuttle quickly turns into Zone B3. There is a young girl standing in front of the stairs of the building.
|
|||
|
486 483 301 Rosa Hi... I'm Rosa. You said it was an emergency, so I followed you here to see if I can help... Mr. Asimov should be in the sealed lab.
|
|||
|
487 484 201 1 1081001

|

|

|
490 487 301 1 Rosa Yeah, Mr. Asimov doesn't like being bothered, so... 1
|
|||
|
491 488 301 She explains obediently but begins to get nervous after seeing Kamui's anxious face.
|
|||
|
492 489 301 Rosa S-s-sorry! Follow me!! 1
|
|||
|
493 490 301 RImgBg1Shake Rosa races into the building and up the emergency stairwell at nearly Mach 1, banging on a wall around the corner.
|
|||
|
494 491 301 Rosa Mr. Asimovvvv...! 1
|
|||
|
495 492 301 AniZhuanchangBegin Rosa's voice trembles with a slight whimper. The crashing of various research equipment comes from the depths of the sealed lab.

|

498 495 301 AniZhuanchangEnd 1 Arriving upstairs, Asimov stares at Wanshi with kindred dark circles of brilliance under his eyes as he is packing up the things he had just knocked over.
|
|||
|
499 496 301 Wanshi wants to ask, "So, someone CAN scare Asimov, huh?" but he has more pressing issues.
|
|||
|
500 497 201 1 1081001

|
503 500 301 1 Asimov ... 1
|
|||
|
504 501 301 He looks at Chrome, who is gravely injured in Kamui's arms, and his face turns pale.
|
|||
|
505 502 301 Asimov Come with me. 1
|
|||
|
506 503 301 Asimov hurries into the sealed lab. Rosa stands there timidly and waves as if choosing not to follow them.
|
|||
|
507 504 301 Asimov This might not be the ER, but your timing couldn't be better. 1
|
|||
|
508 505 301 Asimov I've been working to fix the remaining problems with Chrome's frame since this morning. Sorry, I left my terminal in the workshop. People kept disrupting me. 1
|
|||
|
509 506 301 Asimov I just so happened to fix the issue that's been giving me trouble all this time. 1
|
|||
|
510 507 301 Asimov pushes open the door, takes Chrome from Kamui and places him on the maintenance table.
|
|||
|
511 508 301 Asimov Wanshi, give me hand. 1
|
|||
|
512 509 201 1 500273
