()||<黑点2>:Vector ends up passing by Bryant Park on her way toward the Dark Zone. +A pair of Dolls are calmly taking stock of their supplies amidst the grim, silent atmosphere.

VSK(0)VSK-94||:I don't intend to make things difficult for you. +In the beginning, I had no objections to your fining AK-47 and the others for drunk driving. M870P(0)M870;VSK(0)||:Go on. M870P(0);VSK(0)VSK-94||:When you encountered Squad Springfield just now, they were simply collecting resources and they were very cooperative. +Yet you intimidated them with force and drove them to flee. M870P(0)M870;VSK(0)||:They were running because they had guilty consciences! M870P(0);VSK(0)VSK-94||:While attempting to apprehend Squad Springfield, a lack of prior communication caused P7 and ART556 to be left behind. +We were low on manpower to begin with.

I simply wish to avoid unnecessary losses. M870P(0)M870;VSK(0)||:YOU'RE the newcomer, I'M the team leader! +Don't think I'll keep letting you have your way just because you're a newbie. +When in Rome, you jolly well do as the Romans do, and if you want to operate on M870's turf, you play by M870's rules. +If you want to keep hanging with me, you'd better respect my authority!

()||:Vector unconsciously comes to a halt. Vector(0)Vector||:...Should I just run? ()||:While Vector is deciding what to do, M870 has already dragged VSK-94 up to her. M870P(0)M870||:State your username, suspect. Vector(0)Vector||:Tactical Doll Vector. M870P(0)M870||:Wait, seriously?

M870P(4)M870;Vector(0)||:What proof— M870P(4);Vector(0)Vector||:If you want proof, I will kill you right now so you can ask the Commander yourself. M870P(4)M870;Vector(0)||:So you're trying to assault an officer again after attempting and failing to do so before?! M870P(4);Vector(0)Vector||:If your definition of assaulting an officer includes simulating ways to kill you in my neural cloud, then yes, I am guilty of several thousand counts of assaulting an officer. M870P(4)M870;Vector(0)||:Humph, you've got quite the mouth on you. +Wait a minute, are you the only one the Commander sent out for this? M870P(4);Vector(0)Vector||:I have two other teammates. They aren't with me now. +Is there anything else, Officer? M870P(4)M870;Vector(0)||:Why aren't you traveling with them? M870P(4);Vector(0)Vector||:I guess it's because I'm not likable. M870P(0)M870;Vector(0)||:Hahahaha, I like people who are straight to the point like you! M870P(4)M870||:Too bad being unlikable isn't a crime... VSK(0)VSK-94||:... M870P(4)M870||:(Coughs) So, where are you going now? Vector(0)Vector||:The Dark Zone. M870P(4)M870||:... ()||:M870's questioning has stalled. +She frowns and studies Vector, trying to look for something she can use to pin a charge on her. Vector(0)Vector||:Can I go now? VSK(0)VSK-94||:Sorry for delaying you. You may leave. ()||:M870 looks at VSK-94 in surprise. Open disdain and exasperation are written all over the rookie's face. +It suddenly occurs to M870, "If I don't do something about this now, I'll lose her." M870P(0)M870||:Hold it! ()||:M870 blocks Vector once more. Vector(0)Vector||:... +Can you just get on with it already? +If you want to fight, then fight. I don't care if it's one-on-one or in a group. M870P(0)M870||:Humph, I know what you've done, Tactical Doll Vector! +You can try to hide it, but you can't deceive my eyes. Vector(0)Vector||:Pardon? ()||:M870 glances at VSK-94 and sees a look of doubt in her eyes. +M870 knows that she's a step closer toward redeeming herself. M870P(0)M870||:Say no more. I know the answer already. +"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth!" Vector(0)Vector||:... M870P(0)M870||:Also, "There can only be one truth!" Vector(0)Vector||:How long of an incantation do you need to activate your skill, anyway?

VSK(0)VSK-94||:I'm going to save P7 and ART556. Vector(0)Vector||:...In that case, can I go now? M870P(0)M870||:I forbid you to leave! Vector(0)Vector||:Oh? VSK(0)VSK-94||:You're kidding, right? Do you think you can stop me? M870P(0)M870||:Humph, then be my guest! +Let's see if you can go without my permission! Vector(0)Vector||:Oh, so you're not talking to me... +Well, I'll be— ()||:M870 tosses her backpack into Vector's arms.

()||AVG_rifle_finalshot_nBGM_Empty:M870 strikes first and fires at VSK-94. +VSK-94 steps up onto a park bench and nimbly evades the attack. +After a perfect landing, she begins running deeper into the park... M870P(0)M870||GF_xDivision_Battle1:Trying to get away so you can kill me from range? Don't even think about it! ()||<黑点1>:M870 immediately gives chase. +Vector sighs and sits down on the bench, still holding the heavy backpacks. ()||<黑点2>1:Startled by the sudden sound of gunfire, the nearby birds all take to the skies, leaving behind nothing but a silent patch of trees. +VSK-94 has long since vanished, and there is no trace of her on the leaf-strewn paths. +M870 is keenly aware that the present circumstances are very unfavorable for her, so all she can do is slow down and carefully search for VSK-94's trail. M870P(0)M870||:... ()||AVG_wind_grass:...A cool breeze blows, dislodging several leaves, which fall to the ground. +M870 turns sharply toward them. M870P(0)M870||:...What the hell, scared the crap out of me. ()||:The moment she relaxes, there is a surge of killing intent from the branches of the tree opposite her.

M870P(0)M870||:You're being way too vicious, rookie! How come you're aiming straight for my vitals? +I mean, I DID save you from a pack of alcoholics— ()||AVG_rifle_finalshot_h:Another lethal shot erupts from the depths of the branches. +Somehow, M870 survives it, but she loses a huge chunk of her HP. +M870 doesn't dare mouth off anymore. Instead, she rolls behind a nearby tree trunk and begins thinking about countermeasures. M870P(0)M870||:I'm going to lose at this rate...+I need to break this deadlock, bait her into showing herself, then attack at close range.+I'll start by feigning weakness to take the edge off her aggression, then fake a surrender and pretend to go with what she says. I wonder if those brats will come in handy... ()||:M870 squirms around, teeth clenched in feigned pain and knocking leaves off the trees she hits. As expected, VSK-94 doesn't press the attack. M870P(0)M870||:Hehe, step one is a success. ()||:M870 throws her gun out from behind the tree and begins wailing for mercy. M870P(0)M870||:(Squeals) It hurts! Don't hit me anymore, VSK-94! +I give up! See, I've thrown my gun away! ()||:M870 deliberately exposes her hand to VSK-94's fire. +VSK-94 does not shoot.
