()||9BGM_Empty:Twenty minutes later, M16 is at the connection terminal within the factory. NPC-Persica(0)Persica<通讯框>||:Is the door still shut, M16?+Say...if it really doesn't work, can't you just use your arm as a bomb and blow the door open? M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||BGM_Room:So sorry, but I'm not a military Doll and am not equipped with such high-class parts.+But it shouldn't take too long to break the code with Sangvis access authorization.+Uh...I'm not sure why, but I just can't shake the feeling that I've done the same thing here before... M16(3);NPC-Persica(2)Persica||:So even T-Dolls get deja vus... Fascinating...+But do thank me. You have a much higher computational speed than military Dolls... Hacking through this kind of door should be a piece of cake. M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(2)||:Haha... Next time, I'd rather you make me dumber.+Then I wouldn't have second thoughts about heading to certain death... M16(0);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:I didn't just make you to fight in battle.+Oh right, M16... I got in touch with RO and SOP-II. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:Really...? That's great...+Go on. I'm listening. M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:They're in good physical condition, but emotionally...they're a bit dejected. M16(2)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:I know. Because I left them, and I deceived them. M16(2);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:They haven't found out about the latter yet. RO is awake, and she's still waiting for you to come back. M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:(Sighs) You're SO good at cheering people up. Seriously, which of us is the T-Doll here... M16(0);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:Sorry, M16... But do you like RO? M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:Compared to M4, she's more decisive, more ready for action, and more suited for the role of leadership in general.+She may be a bit headstrong, but nobody would fault her for that. M16(0);NPC-Persica(2)Persica||:I'm also very happy with this AI.+I don't plan on modifying her anymore. Let's just keep everyone on the AR Team the way they are. M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(2)||:Are you sure about that? SOP-II almost went berserk last time. M16(0);NPC-Persica(2)Persica||:That's...a necessary step along the way.+You don't hate her for that, do you? ()||:M16 chuckles wistfully. M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(2)||:I'm just worried about her...+After all...there won't be much room for her to mess up from now on... M16(0);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:Then do you want to leave them a message or something? M16(0)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:No, I have nothing more to say.+Just leave the rest to M4. I know she'll... ()||:...Click! M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||<黑屏1>:Got it.+I'm going in, Persica. ()||9<黑屏2>BGM_Empty:M16 wedges the door open and goes through cautiously.+...Then she gasps. Persica()Persica||:M16, what did you find? M16A1()M16A1||<黑屏1>:I'm not sure. Probably some sort of incubation facility...+To be honest, I won't be surprised no matter what I find in here. M16A1()M16A1||<黑屏2>54BGM_Boss:The scene has been tidied up. Can't really tell what transpired here...+But...this place could've been used to raise...+A monster...? Nothing good, in any case. NPC-Persica(3)Persica<通讯框>||:That's not important, M16.+Find the signal source. There must be something. ()||:...M16 bends down and searches every corner of the incubation facility. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:I found the signal transmitter...+But I still can't discern the identification signature...+It's neither S.F. nor Griffin. My neural cloud contains no corresponding information about this. M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:So it's true... Someone HAS been there after the Butterfly Incident.+Check that transmitter. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:Sorry, I have given it a closer look, but it's just a normal transmitter.+There's nothing inside. I can't tell what this thing is for... M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:Which means...the key might be the room itself. ()||:Persica ponders for a while. M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:M16, are there any monitoring devices in the room? M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:Yes, but they're broken. M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:Then...could there be something to store the footages in? M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:Give me a sec...+...Found it! There's an operation system in the corner with a large storage device underneath.+The system is off, but the indicator light is on, so it should still be functional.+If there are any CCTV footages, they'll most probably be in here... M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:There...must be recordings from that day...+Turn on the operation system and see if you can hack into it. ()||:M16 brushes the dust away and turns on the operation system.+An electronic warning signal starts blaring from the system. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:It's not working. The system has been deadlocked by S.F. I can't read the content.+The authorization level is too high. I don't recommend breaking through with force.+If something goes wrong in the process, not only will we attract the enemy's attention, there's also a risk that the files would be destroyed. M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:As expected... The content is locked with the highest authorization code...+There's no other way, M16...+Looks like we'll have to resort to the backup plan... ()||:...M16 takes out a transistor. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||BGM_Empty:You mean this?+Is it okay to inject it again? The last shot has already...made it really hard to control myself. M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||BGM_Truth:It may have been modified, but it's still the Parapluie virus after all...+The first shot you took in the database building only contains a minimal dosage of nanomachines.+They've only given you limited Sangvis authorization, and they're slow to rewrite your neural cloud.+If you can make it back in twelve hours, I can repair you... M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:Why, thank you for formulating a plan that takes my wellbeing into consideration... M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:The virus was modified from the samples on AR-15.+Sangvis Ferri would notice you after the shot, but you'd still be pretty safe under the protection of the Commander's forces.+But this second shot... M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:Humph... Won't be so mild, huh? M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:From what I've learned, the Parapluie virus was engineered with the purpose of rewriting T-Dolls' neural clouds and putting them under Sangvis control.+The damage to one's neural cloud, once inflicted, is irreversible.+Put it simply...the dosage contained in the second transistor is enough to turn you into a Sangvis T-Doll within a very short period of time.+Your personality, your memories, everything you possess now...will all disappear. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(0)||:And you want me to send you the data before I completely turn into a Sangvis. M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:...+I told you. From the moment this operation begins, there's no going back for you...+M16, you may live on after this, but you'll no longer be the "you" as you are now... M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:...+How much time will I have after the shot? M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:Twenty minutes. M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:So...these are my last twenty minutes, eh...? M16(3);NPC-Persica(3)Persica||:M16A1, I only decided to go through with this operation after I made sure I was ready to pay the price.+What about you? Are YOU ready? M16(3)M16A1;NPC-Persica(3)||:You should know what my answer is, Persica...+But just to confirm this one last time: are you certain that the content in this storage device can help restore M4's neural cloud? M16(3);NPC-Persica(0)Persica||:At least...this is definitely the last piece of the puzzle. M16(0)M16A1||<黑屏1>:Is that so...+Then it makes things much simpler.+So, shall we begin?
