Ministry of Welfare,
Public Safety Bureau

Everyone, stay seated and listen.
This is the woman from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs I mentioned before,
I'm Hanashiro Frederica.
As of today, I have transferred from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Public Safety Bureau.
As the Inspector's assistant,
I hope to be able to learn much from you all.
Inter-ministerial exchange promoted by the Cabinet Secretariat, right?
Why do you think this is happening now?
Two months ago,
The Public Safety Bureau performed a forced international investigation into a crime that occurred within SEAUn.
One wrong move and it could have become in international incident.
The chance of sparking a war is not something we take lightly.
Henceforth, if another incident occurs,
I would hope that you will cooperate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
That investigation had the full authorization of the Sibyl System, is the Ministry still dissatisfied?
I don't think that's it.
Well then, next I'll introduce you to our analyst.
Yo.
What's up?
Hanashiro Frederica-san.
I've gotten information from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
She was in charge of doing the Ministry's dirty work, right?
You knew?
Of course I looked into her, it was unusual.
Please don't get involved in any weird political disputes.
At the very least, make an effort to avoid risks.
For me...
That's the part I always think about first.
Enforcer Sugou Teppei-san, right?
Yeah.
What do you need?
If it's about work, you probably know more than I do.
You're...
not the sort of person who should be in a place like this.
Former ace of the 15th Joint Military Task Force,
Captain Sugou Teppei.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs plans to create new units on the premise of paramilitary activities.
Are you scouting me?
If you join, your restrictions as a latent criminal will be lifted.
Back then, you were an excellent pilot who protected our ground forces,
First Guardian.

Okinawa, 2112
Tango 08, on approach.
This is Oscar, do you copy, First Guardian.
This is First Guardian, I hear you loud and clear.
I'm tracking two armed trucked from above.
I've also found an armed target.
We'll hit both targets simultaneously and enter immediately after.
First Guardian, understood.
Master Arm: On.
AM-2: Lock.
South-Southeast, one unit at 5 o'clock.
Moving to capture, support.
Splendid bombing.
This is First Guardian,
all targets have been disabled
All subsequent support missions will be transferred to the local variable wing aircraft.
Understood, First Guardian.
Nago National Defense Base
(Formerly Camp Schwab)
Nago National Defense Base
(Formerly Camp Schwab)
15th Joint Military Task Force Base of Operations
Let's use them.
There doesn't seem to be anyone better.
Good work.
That was some good training.
Oscar...
Otomo-senpai...
Well then, Rin-san, please introduce yourself.
Umm, then...
A little while ago, though small, there was a change in my hue.
I was advised to change departments by the Department of Mental Health.
Just as a precautionary measure.
I'm not become a latent criminal or anything.
There's nothing to worry about.
Is that really true?
It's really suspicious when it's emphasized.
Stop teasing my bride, Yoshida.
Itsuki-san,
my wife's hue is clear and beautiful.
Really, it's so beautiful that I'm jealous.
Of course, she's beautiful both inside and out.
Anyway... For my job as everyone's radio battle operator,
today's operation was my last.
From here on, as I'll be a Military System Engineer, working here at Nago base.
I hope we get along.
Then let's get this party started!
You were a much better fighter back then.
I yield.
Senpai, you have been updating your life log, haven't you?
We could die at any time, it would be a good idea to keep it updated.
Like a sort of "insurance".
Please don't joke about that, it's bad luck.
If I die, use me for sparring robot parts.
I won't.
What's going on with you and Rin?
You've together since the training academy.
Ahh, well, we've always been close...
Is that it?
Hey, Sugou,
special forces members like us are the sort who's hues don't get cloudy even when we kill people, right?
What's brought this on?
I'm not drunk.
We'll be in an actual battle next.
Even if it's through a drone, we'll still be killing people.
Murder sanctioned by the Sibyl System
Is that something we should be happy about?
Just kidding.
Sorry, it seems I'm a little tipsy.
Senpai...
Must be the mix of booze and meds.
Stay as you are.
This is the Operations supervisor from the Joint Task Force Headquarters, Colonel Takaesu Yoshita..
Operation Supervisor, Colonel Takaesu
Nice to meet you.
Also, this is the Counselor from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Fukita-san.
Ministry of Foreign Affairs Counselor, Fukita
Fukita-san will act as an observer.
Operation Supervisor?
One of the bigwigs from the Joint Task Force Headquarters.
Also, the Foreign Ministry Counselor.
He's not the sort of person to come out here in person.
The mission this time is classified above Top Secret.
Lieutenant General of the 15th Joint Military Task Force stationed at Nago base
Serving as Interim General of the Joint Task Force
Lieutenant General of the 15th Joint Military Task Force stationed at Nago base
Serving as Interim General of the Joint Task Force
The target is the South-East Asian Union, which is officially supported by the Japanese government.
Also known as SEAUn.
Their largest military base has become hostile to the current administration.
The government forces are about to launch a large offensive.
We will support them.
This is the Ministry of Defense's confidential overseas activity plan No. 105,
hereby referred to as Operation "Foot Stamp."
Needless to say, no one outside this room, including other military forces, is to be informed of this.
Both UF-2, clear for take off.
All Green.
Now performing mental care on the drone pilots.
Shit! They've got a lock on me!
Ah, damn it!
Second Guardian - Down.
First Guardian, I will now take control of air support.
The information was correct then. Was that a tank?
Yeah, it was an old Russian anti-aircraft vehicle.
Captain, requesting route change! We can't hold out much longer!
Oscar 3, KIA.
Retreating!
Operation has failed! I repeat, Operation has failed!
No matter.
We'll now begin stage two of the operation, withdraw ground troops to point D.
Roger.
Now supporting withdrawal of Oscar Team.
what's going on!?
From the data, I'm carrying fewer rounds than I should be.
This is the Assistant Strategist, Tomonagada.
I apologize that the report didn't make it to you in time.
Currently, First Guardian is only carrying relief supplies.
You're to drop it on Point D and return.
Please wait!
After the drop, I'll support Oscar from above!
What can you do with your current ammo?
But...!
Don't get the wrong idea,
you're just one unit in this operation.
Drop the goods and return immediately.
Roger.
This is First Guardian,
I will now drop supplies at the target point.
Oscar... Good luck.
Don't worry about it, First Guardian.
It's okay, we'll return, you'll see.
Shit, why is this... Maybe I can still...
First Guardian,
there's a special brandy in my locker.
If I make it back safely, we'll crack it open.
Let's drink again.
Tell her,
tell my wife to live strong.
With the child in her belly.
Don't let them talk any more.
Roger.
Oscar...
Oscar! Otomo-san!
I hear there's a dispute in SEAUn.
If the Ministry of Defense and Ministry of Foreign Affairs push a little further,
SEAUn will eventually fall under the Ministry of Welfare.
However, in the current situation,
a full-scale ground battle isn't possible.
With those tanks around, it'd be better to increase the number of fighter drones.
We can't play this hand all that often.
That's the photo we took with everyone back then.
I wanted to give it to you.
Sorry, it was just an excuse to meet.
Because there was no news.
After the operation, I was cut off, so I don't know the details,
But, during the operation, I did confirm Yoshida-san's death.
Otomo-san and the rest are MIA.
I heard that they were being treated as missing.
Even if I apologize, I don't think it'll make you feel better.
But, please let me.
Because of my weakness, I abandoned Senpai.
I'm truly sorry.
If you need anything, please let me know.
I...
First Guardian, your hue is unstable.
Please stop training.
Roger.
Now performing mental care on the pilot.
Training will resume after one hour.
Forgive me.
It's fine.
Rin-san will quit the military, I heard.
Well it's not long till she gives birth.
I heard she miscarried.
Overwork and excessive mental care.
She was searching for Otomo-senpai's whereabouts until the last second.
With apparently no good news.
3 Months Later
Tokyo, Ministry of Defense HQ
In the attack on the Ministry of Defense building,
an armed drone was used.
This has impacted the other Ministries.
The Ministry of Welfare's Public Safety Bureau is investigating this very seriously.
They're looking into any possibilities, including hacking and accidental malfunction.
Inspector Aoyanagi Risa of the Ministry of Welfare's Public Safety Bureau,
Also from the same, I'm Enforcer Masaoka.
I'm sure you already know about the incident.
An armed drone attacked the Ministry of Defense's Tokyo building.
Of course.
We don't think that the perpetrator was working alone,
The drone that was used in the assault,
was stolen from a Defense force research facility.
It's impossible for even the people at this base to control one remotely.
A single suspicious person entered the facility,
He was spotted by one of the National Defense Institute's security cameras.
The missing Defense Force soldier, Otomo Itsuki.
A Special Operations electronic warfare professional.
He was also an excellent military programmer.
Please wait.
Didn't Otomo-senpai go missing in battle?
I heard he was overwhelmed in battle.
And recovery was impossible.
However, this is what the camera shows.
We can't consider him missing any more.
All the more so if Colonel Otomo is the perpetrator.
Both perpetrator and victims will be military personnel.
The Military Police should be the ones running this case.
I beg to differ,
Otomo is a former soldier, he's just a civilian now.
No matter what the circumstances, all civilian crimes in this country
fall under the jurisdiction of the Public Safety Bureau.
So, I was called here so you could inform me about Otomo-san?
You're a little wrong there,
The results of our investigation showed where the drone was remotely controlled from, Sugou-san...
It was your terminal.
Moreover, there was another drone stolen.
Even if you're not the main perpetrator, you're under heavy suspicion of being an accomplice.
Complete disarmament!?
Please don't get angry Captain. It wasn't my decision.
Until the current case is resolved, it's not possible for you to go on training flights.
Good grief.
Why are you following me?
Didn't I say it earlier, you're a suspected accomplice.
Following me isn't going to provide you with evidence.
Say, Sugou-san,
it's the same with us, but the Ministry of Defense sure is secretive,
Could you fill us in about the time Otomo Itsuki went missing?
I can't talk about classified information.
There was a day when your hue suddenly changed.
This is for your sake.
Well, you're the suspect and we're the detectives,
The quickest way of clearing your name is to help us to catch Otomo.
Won't you cooperate willingly?
Ahh, Totsuan and Inspector Aoyanagi are in Okinawa
with the guy who attacked the Ministry of Defense building with a drone.
Why would you leave evidence of remote control?
He's a scapegoat for the true perpetrator, it was left visible to be misleading,
Even still, it's worth looking into.
After all, even though we're looking into it,
there haven't been any demands and no one is taking responsibility.
What do you think, Gino-sensei.
How the hell should I know!
Bad mood?
Shut it!
We should have searched the room before it got cleaned.
Not even Otomo's fingerprints are left.
We have no leads.
This room is completely clean.
This was just a waste of time.
No, the fact there aren't any clues is a clue.
I think my husband died overseas.
In the first place, it's impossible for a criminal to return to this country...
I don't mind if it seems trivial,
has anything around you changed recently?
No, nothing really.
How have you made a living since you left the army?
Through the Sibyl System's re-employment measures,
I've safely found a job working at a local TV station.
Maybe being a soldier wasn't something I should have been doing from the start.
Also, Sugou-kun,
it might not be right for you, either. Really.
Well...
Missus.
Don't you actually hate your TV station work?
Why do you ask?
Well, according to your records,
you've been taking quite a lot of paid leave, haven't you?
What's more, you're undergoing more mental care.
That's all? When something like this happens, it's natural to need more.
Well, that's one interpretation,
What do you mean "Interpretation?" Please give it a rest.
Stop it, Sugou-kun.
I think it's only natural that the detectives doubt me.
However,
it doesn't seem like they have any useful information about this case.
The frequent time off and increased care are just distractions.
Even if I'm a suspect,
the prospect of seeing my husband again
makes me happy.
As long as he's alive,
I'm sure he'll return here.
As long as you're under suspicion,
the Public Safety Bureau detectives will stick to you.
Yes, sir.
You will...
complete your duties as a soldier.
I understand.
In that case, take advantage of this chance.
Make a deal.
What the Public Safety Bureau is looking for...
and where their interests lie,
report on it.
You want me to spy on them?
No, this is part of a legitimate operation.
What do you think?
Even though you're aiding the investigation, you got pretty fired up back there for such a straight-laced guy.
But well, it did tell me one thing.
Captain Sugou isn't our perpetrator.
Far from being an accomplice, you're totally unrelated.
Detective's intuition, is it?
Please don't tease me, Inspector.
It's nothing, but someone who commits a crime like that
isn't the type of person who can get angry for someone else.
Wait, Aoyanagi-san, this route...
I'm sorry, Sugou-san, I'm taking a little detour.
Since we're in the area, we should take advantage of the opportunity.
You may never have another to come to Okinawa.
Well...
Hello, are you a family member?
If you do not provide ID or biometric data,
security will be called.
I'm from the Public Safety Bureau, this is an investigation.
Excuse me, please take your time.
You...
have gotten thinner.
I'm really sorry.
I'm still just an Enforcer.
I'm not really able to leave Tokyo.
The Kyushu branch is short staffed.
A lot of people died in this case.
And we're the division with the highest arrest rate...
Sorry, even at times like this, I'm still talking about work.
I'm really... even now I'm at a loss.
Umm... What sort of person is Detective Masaoka?
Let's see... He's a legendary detective, a demon on the ground.
Even before the Sibyl System was established,
he's solved a ridiculous number of incidents.
He's a latent criminal... Isn't he?
Because he's a latent criminal.
With Masaoka-san on the case, as you've seen, even soldiers will be bested.
Today, I'm just his attendant.
Usually it's a different person accompanying Masaoka-san.
But you know what, I'd really like to have Masaoka-san.
He's that great of a detective?
It's not just that,
that man, cannot be broken.
Even when normal person would give up, he won't.
Don't you think that shows the real strength of humans?
Nobuchika is doing well.
Now that it's like this,
it's like I'm living the rest of my life just for his sake.
Dealing with a son's envy is part of his father's work.
I'm finally able see the final goal.
It's just... I want Nobuchika to be happy.
Aoyanagi-san,
thank you.
No worries.
Ginoza-kun.
Aoyanagi, He's entered Dejima, one of the nine branches of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This is the man suspected to be Otomo Itsuki.
This is the last thing the security cameras caught.
As usual, I can't check his hue.
Dejima is under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' jurisdiction, right?
How's that going?
About how you'd expect.
In any case, it's not somewhere the Public Safety Bureau can act freely.
We'll handle the investigation here.
Take care.
Same to you.
Also, Enforcer Masaoka.
What's up?
Don't "what's up" me!
I got the data from the nursing drone.
Why are you going to see Mom after all this time!
Ginoza-kun,
I'm the one who recommended Masaoka-san go see her.
An opportunity like this is pretty rare...
Could you not stick your nose in this?
This is a problem between me and Masaoka.
There you go again, treating your father like some stranger...
It's okay, Aoyanagi-san.
It's fine, I'll talk to him for a bit.
Kyushu, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Immigration Center
How can you do something so shameless?
Listen, if you do this again, you won't get off so lightly!
Gino!
This is from one hour ago...
That's the situation here.
So, why is the soldier with you?
I am...
It was my decision. Either as an information source or an important witness,
He'll definitely be useful.
But...
If that's what Totsuan says, I guess it's fine.
Okay, putting aside the matter of the soldier,
The Dejima matter.
Once I got permission, I conducted an investigation with Public Safety Bureau Drones.
For now, I'll send over the data we've got.
It must be tough to have so many great men killed at once.
Even if you're great, it's all over once you're dead.
It seems there are a lot of big-shot positions lined up.
The Director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Deputy Manager, Development Manager, even the Counselor.
Excuse me! Do you know the name of the Counselor of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?
The victim of this case?
Yeah.
There's only one victim who's a Counselor,
his name is Fukita Kyoukei.
"Foot stamp."
What?
I'm sorry, I need to speak to my boss for a minute.
Wha... Wait!
Analyst,
Yes?
Look up anything related to the military and the term "Foot Stamp."
It's likely the name of an operation.
Understood.
Just how far can one soldier stick their neck out?
All you need to do is cooperate until they arrest Otomo.
Operation Foot Stamp.
The same operation where Otomo-senpai went missing.
At that time, there was a Foreign Affairs Counselor called Fukita in the command room.
As an Observer.
And that Fukita died... was killed.
What really happened over there?! Senpai...
Otomo died as a fine soldier for this country!
That was just a failed operation.
That's a lie. Why else would you say to "arrest Otomo," Lieutenant General?
If he really died, then I can't arrest him!
Please explain.
Captain Sugou, please come with me.
I am a suspect in a case investigated by the Public Safety Bureau.
I cannot go with you.
Forget that, just come.
It's being jammed.
All communications within this base will be down for a while.
Did something happen?
Don't act sweet, we're not going to be fooled.
Your job is to arrest the perpetrator,
not to access military secrets.
Excuse me, but our chain of command is different from yours.
We're just proceeding with the Public Safety Bureau's investigation.
If you want to speak like that, then we can do the same.
Now, now, why don't we all just work together.
Your separated wife...
Youth Stress deficiency is not something that should be treated at home.
You bastard...
I wonder what your son, who's on the elite course in the Ministry of Welfare would say about it?
If you were to follow the rules, she should be housed in a treatment facility.
Though it's not as nice as it sounds, some even call it a "disposal site."
It must be one of the terrible facilities in this world.
Inspector Ginoza Nobuchika, wast it?
This might even put a dent in his career.
In the first place, his father is a latent criminal.
He's already shouldering a handicap.
Listen up!
You might be misunderstanding something, I'm not an Inspector.
I'm a latent criminal Enforcer.
The sort of person who gets isolated so they don't commit a crime.
If you lay a hand on the wife and child of that sort of person, what do you think will happen?
My crimes are my own!
What do you think you're doing, there's no way this is allowed!
You're an excellent soldier.
No, former soldier.
Why did you betray your country?
What are you talking about?
Don't play stupid, after operation "Foot Stamp"
you cracked into military databases.
At first, I believed someone was using it as camouflage,
but just in case, I checked your devices.
There we found traces of your cracking.
Be ashamed!
Sarutobi!
Sugou, I cannot kill you.
I didn't want to kill you in the first place,Nespecially within the base.
I didn't want to give the Public Safety Bureau any more reason to search.
But now, I'm going to make sure you're seriously injured during a "training accident."
What! What happened?
Who let these guys through!
The Sibyl System's forced investigation protocol was activated.
It was triggered when we lost contact with the devices that measure everyone at this base's Crime Coefficient.
At this rate, we cannot deny the possibility of a coup d'état by the Defense Force.
General Minatoya, until we can get an accurate read on your Crime Coefficient,
we ask you to refrain from such acts.
I'm fine with turning my Dominator on you now,
but I would prefer not to go that far within this base.
How's your eye?
It's fine.
Operation "Foot Stamp" seems like it was pretty bad,
It's like they suddenly just didn't care.
Jamming our communications backfired on them.
It became an opportunity for the director to move.
However, it's only a matter of time before the authority ends.
In the meantime, if we cannot stop Otomo's rampage,
everything that happened at this base will be erased.
Otomo-senpai...
Is he really alive?
Putting aside whether he's alive, there should be something...
that would give them a reason to drag you into it.
Did Otomo have any "insurance"?
What do you mean by "Insurance"?
When I was a detective working a strange case, I would prepare something in case something happened,
like a soldier going on a special operation would.
Because you'd never know who's going to betray you.
Even now, I have a few safe houses that I've kept secret from the Public Safety Bureau.
Anything you can think of?
A secret hiding place or a safe storage for things that would be sent to his wife.
That brandy!
What?
This is Otomo-san's...
Insurance, huh.
Back when this base was still know as Camp Schwab,
the US military were building a secret underground submarine dock.
If the information contained within Otomo's insurance is right,
then the submarine's reactor is still active.
To think it was in such a place...
Ginoza-kun? We're finally getting closer to the primary suspect.
"Primary suspect?" You mean Otomo Itsuki?
That's right,
After the attack on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Dejima was completely closed off.
And just now, Otomo was spotted by a street scan,
We're about to corner him in a back alley.
Then...
Who's over here killing the soldiers on lookout?
That's what I want to know.
In any case, I'm going to apprehend the suspect in the alley.
Take care.
Same to you.
Kou-chan!
Ministry of Foreign Affairs Employee.
To check the Crime Coefficient, special permission is required.
Please confirm you are linked to the authorization source.
Shit!
Gino, you chase him from the ground!
You bastards! Don't charge ahead!
There he is!
Kou-chan, you take the front!
Don't hesitate, we'll take him down together!
Too bad!
Kou-chan!
I came to get something I forgot.
A nuclear submarine, isolated and abandoned because of some trouble.
Is this what you forgot?
You truly don't know anything.
Otomo Itsuki!
Public Safety Bureau Detective. It's pointless to resist!
Crime Coefficient cannot be measured.
Please double check the subject's vital signs.
As I thought.
Oh, no.
This is... our perpetrator?
I have no idea.
What's going on?
Shit!
This is the wrong one!
It's no wonder he couldn't be picked up by the street scanners.
It's Otomo-senpai's sparring robot.
If it were the real one, I never would have won.
Yo, Teppei.
As you can see, this is just a programmed robot,
The real me is already dead.
Did you see the memory chip in my present?
Yeah...
The log of the operations that Senpai participated in,
All of the top secret information was recorded in it.
For example, the operation that you disappeared during.
Operation "Foot Stamp."
Back then,
the upper ranks said that it was absolutely necessary to destroy the enemy forces.
Our unit, was always meant to be disposable.
The real goal of that operation, Teppei, was the special equipment strapped to your aircraft.
Those were...
Supposed to be relief supplies.
It was actually something else.
You were actually dropping a chemical weapon.
Nano-enhanced VX gas...
With just that spray, the enemy forces were wiped out.
Otomo Itsuki and his entire squad were killed.
In the end, you slaughtered a great many people.
I don't mind being disposable,
that's part of being a soldier, after all.
But, not by gas.
Even if it's a disposable piece, as long as you treat it like a strong one...
I'm sorry to interrupt,
but you were about to steal a nuclear submarine, were you going to commit terrorism?
For revenge.
The detective who just interrupted,
revenge is the correct answer.
You're just a diversion,
This isn't human intelligence, but artificial intelligence?
Replicating thought and speech patterns from the deceased's life log.
As expected, Detective.
But a life log alone isn't enough for a doll like you to commit these crimes,
Yeah.
You programmed it, didn't you.
That's right.
Both his and mine,
this AI was born using both of our thoughts.
"Live strong."
I lost my child before it could be born, so I had to return to being a soldier.
Tell my wife to live strong.
With the child in her belly.
I knew the truth about Operation "Foot Stamp."
I used the tracking on Sugou-kun's device,
and made it into a decoy.
If I were to make you a suspect...
then even if the assassination failed,
the stakeholders would naturally gather here at Nago base.
I finally have a chance to get revenge.
Otomo-senpai would never have wanted any of this!
You think so?
You have no idea.
Rin...
You can't escape.
Leaving the base would be fatal.
Your Crime Coefficient would have to be measured.
You lot have no idea.
Just what do you think we in the military have had to do,
what we've had to sacrifice just to protect the Sibyl System?
I chose what was necessary for the military and our national interests!
No, I have no idea what you've gone through.
