"The flow may swallow you aeria gloris, aeria gloris Flying in glory, Flying in glory mana du vortes, mana du vortes The flow may swallow you." "The flow may swallow you aeria gloris, aeria gloris Flying in glory, Flying in glory" "I am calling, calling now." "Spirits rise and falling." "s-toboi ostatsya dalshe To be with you longer..." "Calling, calling..." "In the depth of longing s-toboi ostatsya dalshe To be with you longer... mana du vortes, aeria gloris The flow may swallow you, flying in glory" "Dredd to Samusha." "I've completed attaching the anesthetizing gas injection device to the rooftop unit." "I've completed attaching the anesthetizing gas injection device to the rooftop unit." "I've completed attaching the anesthetizing gas injection device to the rooftop unit." "Understood." "Set the device for 0200 hours;" "wait for my signal." "Are you the police?" "The system can no longer mete out justice!" "The system can no longer mete out justice!" "If you are discontented with the system, change yourself!" "If you don't want that, close your eyes, shut your mouth, and live in isolation." "And, if you don't want that either..." "Major." "All members have been summoned to assemble in A-2 gear." "Location:" "Sector 82-D3." "Did you hear that, Batou?" "Yes, I heard you." "Without a satisfactory explanation,I can't just turn over control." "This incident is under police jurisdiction!" "I have no obligation to explain." "Stop being obstinate and release jurisdiction to the military." "I have the same to say to you!" "Is this a situation that allows for arguments over inane details?" "Aramaki..." "The important issue is the safety of the customers inside, wouldn't you say?" "The important issue is the safety of the customers inside, wouldn't you say?" "The important issue is the safety of the customers inside, wouldn't you say?" "I believe that those who are currently held hostage are:" "the Foreign Minister, and the Minister's secretary, the Minister's chief of Public Relations, and two visitors from the North American Association for Industrial Development." "It has been 17 minutes since the geisha bots restrained them." "According to the hostess who managed to escape on her own, there may be two additional hostages." "We have not been able to confirm the current situation in the restaurant." "Have any claims of responsibility or demands been released?" "None so far." "What about a lockdown on communications?" "The militarty is taking care of it." "Restriciton on media broadcasts?" "It's been 9 minutes since the execution of Code 14." "It won't last long." "From this point on, this incident will be under Section 9's jurisdiction." "Stay on alert." "Kubota..." "Why does the military want to intervene?" "One of us is inside." "I can't say more at the moment." "All right, I'll ask you for the details later." "Leave it to me." "Major." "Not yet!" "The military wishes to intervene." "Watch your back, carefully." "Thanks for the advice." "Batou!" "I'm still in transit." "When I listened to the sniper team's communications earlier, there was tap prevention background noise." "Togusa, Ishikawa!" "Major, there are too many lines." "It will probably take at least 2 hours to determine which one is being used." "Togusa, go into the inner garden and prepare for the assault." "Roger." "Saitou!" "I neutralized the image shielding curtain, due to the number of trees present, I can only perform limited sniping." "I neutralized the image shielding curtain, due to the number of trees present, I can only perform limited sniping." "I neutralized the image shielding curtain, due to the number of trees present, I can only perform limited sniping." "I neutralized the image shielding curtain, due to the number of trees present, I can only perform limited sniping." "Pazu, Bomer!" "Ready when you are." "The one manipulating the geisha bots must be nearby." "Don't start the trace;" "we are sending in the virus before he erases evidence." "Major." "What if the geisha bots request amelioration of labor conditions...?" "You..." "All of you, stay where you are." "Standby, ok!" "All right, strike!" "Go!" "Pazu, Bomer!" "Set the search virus on him!" "Batou, assist." "Mmm, music to my ears." "Snap out of it, Togusa!" "Chief, we are in control of the site." "Chief, we are in control of the site." "One hostage requires immediate medical attention;" "she has incurred serious injuries." "The other is dead judging from the damage done to his head." "The target is being chased by Batou and others." "All right, guide the Minister and his crew outside." "Be careful about it." "I've arranged to have a temporary route ready and four vans at the main entrance." "Set the alert to B-6 while in transit." "Roger." "Can you walk?" "Are you all right?" "You saved my life, thank you." "Major, the target is a cyborg." "We're currently comparing him against existing records." "So far, no matches" "Don't kill him until he tells us what he was waiting for!" "Bomer, I'll catch up with you guys soon!" "Don't jump in front of us." "Would I fall?" "Tachikoma, are you following me?" "!" "Tachikoma, are you following me?" "!" "You're late." "Tachikoma!" "Do you give up yet?" "I might be in trouble..." "Come in." "Let's hear the story." "Let's hear the story." "Let's hear the story." "Well... the Minister's secretary, whose brain was damaged..." "She actually works for me;" "I was having her investigate the Foreign Minister." "The Foreign Minister?" "There has recently been some activity around him that indicated interest in the Ichinose Report." "A report describing a detailed scenario for diplomatic and military assault measures in the event of a national crisis." "Of course, if the military received a disclosure request, we wouldn't be able to refuse." "However, it wasn't a request made by the Minister himself, but we've been overlooking things like that for a while." "In other words, the investigation was a security check, a part of our normal operations." "Then, why was the secretary attacked?" "Well, it could be that the attempt on her life was made because she was on the verge of discovering something." "What about the Minister's background information?" "A complete check revealed nothing." "No sign of blackmail; no suspicious bank account transactions either." "This is not like you at all." "This time around, I messed up." "This time around, I messed up." "If you don't mind, I'm thinking about having my section investigate this;" "..what do you think?" "That would be greatly appreciated." "However, don't do anything that'll mar your reputation." "In the end, I'll bear the blame if it goes that far." "And?" "Check the Minister's background one more time." "In addition, do a thorough check on what happened in the restaurant." "I will re-investigate the military's interest in the Ichinose Report." "Oh?" "Isn't he your friend?" "Oh?" "Isn't he your friend?" "That's right." "That's why I'm checking." "He's got guts to burn his own memory out, even risking permanent damage to his brain." "As a result, I'm a laughing stock." "Your're wasting budget money." "If you're going to impetuously start shooting every time there's a mission," "I suggest getting cybernetic implants." "By that, are you suggesting I should also become a cyborg?" "I'm not so crude as to give you a personal suggestion in the guise of a professional one, and in any event, with regard to your shooting performance today, I think you did fine." "But if you're fearing that you may hit the hostages, you should be more flexible." "You were equipped with that 9mm at the time, weren't you?" "Why do you think I recruited you from the main department?" "If you have the time to be depressed, why don't you think about using your own talents to contribute to the case?" "The events at the dining establishment, during the ten or so minutes before our arrival..." "Let's examine them thoroughly." "How are your grandchildren?" "What do you think?" "You're so impatient." "The Ichinose Report has no impact on the military's budget." "It's not anything you should be interested in." "It's not anything you should be interested in." "The executive or the legislative branch..." "Whose policy is it?" "Military personnel who might be disadvantaged by that report are not in any posistion to know of its existence." ""Those who don't know, we don't seek."" "Those are your words." "You haven't changed at all." "There's a new restaurant near here that prepares shrimp very well;" "why don't you come with me?" "why don't you come with me?" "Next time." "The Major is waiting." "What's come up?" "The recording of the Willow Room immediately after the incident began." "And, some interesting images taken from the video cameras placed around the establishment." "That man, while he's supposed to have a cyber brain made by the NAN company, we've discovered that the original chassis couldn't be reconstructed from the shattered fragments." "we've discovered that the original chassis couldn't be reconstructed from the shattered fragments." "The next one is the image depicting the Foreign Minister and the geisha entering the bathroom." "The next one is the image depicting the Foreign Minister and the geisha entering the bathroom." "The next one is the image depicting the Foreign Minister and the geisha entering the bathroom." "The next one is the image depicting the Foreign Minister and the geisha entering the bathroom." "The next one is the image depicting the Foreign Minister and the geisha entering the bathroom." "With the geisha?" "It appears that he frequently had fun swithcing bodies with the geishas when he was drunk." "That's the employee of the NAA for Industrial Developlment who died." "Then, the secretary, who became worried, appears..." "There, that's where she was attacked." "There, that's where she was attacked." "There, that's where she was attacked." "This differs from the statement made by the association's other employee, which was that the murdered employee was attacked first, then the secretary." "The Chief of Public Relations was too drunk to remember anything, but he had told the police, that he though he heard the secretary scream first." "What did she see?" "What did she see?" "Can you walk?" "Are you all right?" "You saved my life, thank you." "Major!" "They said that the FM had a hobby of switching bodies with geishas, right?" "Yes, what about it?" "Couldn't it be that the Minister switched his cerebral core?" "If the enemy's target is the Ichinose Report, then perhaps all that was needed was the Minister's physical features, in other words, his body." "The secretary saw the Minister's cerebral core being switched." "Ishikawa!" "Kubota!" "This is Aramaki." "About the Foreign Minister..." "He's here right now with members of the NAA for Industrial Development!" "He took the Ichinose Report!" "I gave him a copy-protected version, so I can buy a bit of time in the event of an emergency, but..." "Where is the Minister now?" "He's headed to the airport." "Because he's going to participate in a party hosted by the Association, he's apparently flying to the United States!" "Batou, emergency sortie in L-2 gear!" "Take Togusa and Saito with you, we're going straight to the airport!" "Minister, I'm sorry." "The private jet has apparently experiencing a 15 minute delay due to bad weather." "I see." "I'll go first." "Minister!" "I'm sorry to have made you wait." "The private jet has arrived." "Please wait, Minister." "Oh, it's you." "You saved my life last night." "What do you wish of me?" "I came to deliver this to you." "I came to deliver this to you." "I came to deliver this to you." "What is it?" ""In order to treat health issues, I will resign my post..."" "What do you mean by "resignation"?" "!" "Once you have read it, you are no longer a Minister." "What did you say?" "By what authority?" "!" "It is a fact confirmed by both the Prime Minister and the ruling party." "If you wish, please check." "Based on last night's events, you have been charged with suspicion of espionage as well as of seeking political asylum abroad." "Please accompany us." "Stop!" "He's not the Minister you need to protect!" "We've secured the cerebral core." "We've secured the cerebral core." "We'll have plenty of time to learn your true identity..." "Take him." "She will have braing support surgery with cybernetic technology and nano-machines." "She will have braing support surgery with cybernetic technology and nano-machines." "She will have braing support surgery with cybernetic technology and nano-machines." "She will have braing support surgery with cybernetic technology and nano-machines." "She will have braing support surgery with cybernetic technology and nano-machines." "Although her language ability will remain slightly affected, she will be able to lead a normal life." "I see." "I'm sorry that my department couldn't take care of this incident, but I thank you just the same." "If you hadn't stood firm immediately after the incident, the police would have stormed the place, sniped the robots and the case would have been solved without Section 9's intervention." "If that had occured, by now the news media would be overflowing with stories about the Foreign Minister's suspected espionage and seeking of asylum, wouldn't it?" "In any case, you managed to convince politicians and assemble the necessary documents despite the time limitations." "If you're prepared, you're ready for anything." "Even though there was no bad weather, the Minister's private jet managed to be late, too." "That's what Section 9 does best."
