"Asada!" "Shino Asada!" "Memories of Fresh Blood" "Hey!" "Get a move on!" "Asada." "and now we don't have the train fare to get home." "so lend me this much." "Ten thousand yen?" "No way do I have that much on me." "Then go withdraw it." "No." "Huh?" "I have no intention of lending you any money." "Damn you..." "Don't mess with me!" "so step aside." "Bang!" "Asada." "see." "Why don't I show them to you at school sometime?" "don't you?" "Pistols." "Asada! you know!" "just hand over what you've got and I'll let you go." "Asada." "This way!" "Officer!" "Please hurry!" "Crap!" "Asada?" "Shinkawa." "CafÃ© Louvre right?" "it failed." "My squadron lost four out of five members." "you really can't call it a win." "But it's so amazing." "that Minigun-wielder Behemoth was known for never having died in a group battle till now." "really?" "So he's that famous." "so I had no idea." "of course. carrying 500 pounds of ammo pushes you over the weight limit and you can't run." "you're done." "you're invincible." "a weapon like that." "people are calling my HÃ©cate II a total violation as well." "though." "you know?" "So what are you gonna do about the next bob?" "of course." "I have almost all of the Top 20 players' data from the last one." "I'm going to kiâ€" "I'm going to try to crack the upper ranks." "and be sure that I'm the most powerful..." "I just know that..." "I see..." "Asada." "Acquiring that beast of a gun..." "And your stats were practically tailor-made for STR builds." "but you've already left me far behind." "you made it all the way to the semifinals." "No..." "It's futile." "unless you can score some really rare guns." "I totally messed up my stats allotment..." "Shinkawa?" "there'd be no point." "right?" "Are you trying for pre-med?" "Yeah." "Since my family runs a hospital." "so I have no choice." "right?" "How are your mock exams?" "right..." "I'm doing fine." "I'm still ranked the same as when I was going to school." "Instructor." "Good job." "your log-in times are mind-blowing." "you were always online whenever I logged in." "you know." "right?" "not at all." "Since solo hunting is impossible now for AGI builds." "right?" "Hey..." "Sorry." "I've got to get going now... don't you?" "I'd like to have some of your cooking again sometime." "one of these days." "okay?" "Thanks for the tea." "you know." "I wish I could always be there to protect you." "listen." "Do you want me to walk you home from school?" "that's all right." "too." "I'm home." "If I do it now..." "I don't remember my father's face." "he'd died in a car accident." "and were taken in by her parents." "we led peaceful lives." "that peace was abruptly shattered." "Stuff the money in this bag!" "And don't press the alarm button!" "Mother... put the money in the bag!" "Every last bit of it!" "Hurry the hell up!" "sir!" "I told you not to press that button!" "you!" "Get over here and start packing the money!" "I'll shoot another one!" "I swear I'll shoot!" "You little... you little brat!" "I look awful." "Save me..." "Somebody... save me..." "Wh-What?" "you're quitting ALO?" "that's not it!" "It's just for a few days." "right away!" "Really?" "A-Actually... it's a little complicated..." "I've got to go check out this other VRMMO..." "Check it out?" "But you've done that so many times already using new accounts!" "won't it?" "Why would you have to go that far?" "the thing is..." "Uh..." "It's that guy from the Ministry... but... but I'm not sure that I can totally trust that man." "that makes two of us then." "okay?" "Because there's only one place where our home is." "Of course." "I'll come back to ALO right away." "I just need to do some research on the inner workings of a game called Gun Gale Online." "I believe that the Death Gun story is 99% rumor." "To kill someone in the real world from a virtual world..." "I just can't believe it's possible." "This is true power." "This is what true strength is about!" "carve my name into your minds - with fear!" "and the name of this gun... is Death Gun!" "But it's the remaining 1% possibility that's brought me here." "Excuse me..." "Yo!" "Kirigaya!" "Ms. Aki." "Hey..." "Now you've got some meat on you." "But it's still nowhere near enough." "Are you eating right?" "I'm eating." "Ms. Aki?" "That suit with the glasses told me all about it." "I hear you're going to do some research on a virtual network for the government?" "It hasn't even been a year since you got back... huh? and I was let off my shift today." "He's even settled things with the Head Nurse." "You really have to hand it to the power of the government!" "Kirigaya!" "L-Likewise." "So the suit with the glasses - he's not here?" "though." "Email your reports to the usual address." "so invoice us accordingly. don't let your youthful urges take over!" "so... right." "It's all set up." "Kirigaya." "E-Excuse me?" "So I can stick these electrodes on you." "anyway... would just the top be okay?" "we're ready to go now." "Uh..." "Then I'll be off." "I think I'll be diving for about four or five hours... so go on - no worries!" "Th-Thank you for looking out for me..." "Link start!" "I'm doing all right." "and I've made some friends." "I'm fine." "I haven't had that many attacks lately..." "Grandpa." "I'll come home for winter break... talk to you later. and it will trigger a panic attack. my symptoms hardly improved at all. as a form of exposure therapy. or being at gunpoint doesn't bring on any attacks." "the stronger I can become in the real world." "armed with HÃ©cate II." "If I can win the next Bullet of Bullets..." "then for sure..." "For sure!" "Link start." "XeXeeD and Tarako." "Has it been almost a month now?" "please post any information you can get." "right? shouldn't we be able to find out if any VRMMO players died right at that time?" "nobody would know if they'd died." "And we already know that the police aren't talking. blah blah blah." "the only way is for someone to prove it with his own body. wearing a red rose on my chest." "please shoot me." "We have a hero in our midst!" "or it won't mean anything." "why not do a public dive from some Internet cafÃ©?" "whatever." "Next time:" "GGO"
