Karen?
Hey, what about Karen?
You shouldn't be worrying about your sister.
Pepper, this is your new room from now on.
You are someone who had a great trial upon your shoulders.
Sleep well.
The smell of another stranger...
Seven, they put us in a new room.
Well. This room, these clothes, and even my name isn't my own.
Only you...
You're mine.
Earnest Desire
I wonder if I'm really here.
Hey, Seven...
Seven? Where did you go?
Come here.
I want to show you something.
Goodness.
I can't believe a soon to be discarded child would be compatible with it.
We must look over the examination process for the test subjects...
Seven!
H-Hey!
I can make this thing mine?
If you survive the Hands transplant procedure, of course.
The abilities of Gun Slave Unit Device 7 are particularly high,
but its fragile mental state has made it notably unstable.
No matter how powerful of a weapon it is,
it will be disposed of if we cannot find a compatible Hands for it.
Though you are not compatible with extensions,
you are somewhat compatible with Hands technology.
If you can control this and show its use as a tool,
the company shall find worth in you and treat you accordingly.
However, since it is such an unstable unit--
How stupid.
Did she listen to a single thing I've said?!
Hey, you...
Goodness.
I want him...
I want him... I want him... I want him!
I want him!
I want him. I want him. I want him!
I want him!
A chain that will connect me to this world.
A mark I can use to confirm my own existence myself!
Dibs!
They called you Device 7?
Looks like you're missing something, too.
Don't worry.
I'll get you out of this place.
In exchange, if you ever become anyone else's...
...I'll definitely break you.
You're so nice to women, Juzo.
He's sheltering someone who destroyed his own office.
Well, I'm getting paid to take care of her, so I can't really complain.
Will she be all right?
You're also too nice, Boy. Goodness.
If Chris finds out about this, we'll all be kicked out.
"No late payments on rent!!"
Juzo, are you going out?
Be careful.
There's more criticism against Extendeds after what happened.
You're right. Thanks.
Your honest reply gives me the shivers.
Rosa came by and dropped this off last time.
Rosa did?
She said she fixed the rip in your coat.
I'm off.
Whoa, Juzo!
Well, it's fine I guess.
The recent bombing event at the End of War Commemoration Park,
also known as the Armed Plaza,
has been determined as the work of Spitzbergen by the Reconstruction Agency.
Hey, hey. I heard that an illegal Extended full of weapons went crazy.
Over 300 people have been reported as dead or wounded.
Extendeds are the devil, after all.
I repeat...
But, I heard that some of the victims were saved by getting extensions.
They just released a new sub-brain yesterday, too.
It's better on the body, right?
Won't the number of Extendeds increase?
Reconstruction Agency Holy Church Hospital
Hey, Olivier.
Extended Only Hospital Ward
The pairing is complete.
You have 15 minutes.
I'll allow you to meet the witness alone during that time.
In exchange, I'll be listening to your conversation through that mic.
Also, you will tell us everything you know regarding that Extended.
Understand?
Yeah, I got it.
No smoking in the hospital. Isn't that obvious?
You have my thanks, Olivier.
I'm not doing it for you.
After Berühren's cover-up...
...all we found were numerous victims, the body of professor Wachowski,
and a single witness.
On top of that, the witness cannot be identified and isn't on the register.
We couldn't connect her to Berühren through her sub-brain history, either.
"Special Procedure Room"
What are you going to do with the witness?
I'm not the one who decides that.
Though I suppose she will be put into a facility and kept under watch.
Shut down the building! Quickly!
What is going on! Did she escape?!
Juzo?!
S-So narrow!
My wife and son died because of your fight.
They were crushed by the debris and died while suffering...
Just accept it.
This will be a way for you to pay for your sins.
L-Let me go!
Calm down a bit, old man.
Monster!
You monsters are the cause!
Why?
Why are you alive instead of Seven?
You... There's no way...
Did you become someone's?!
Did you let someone else pull your trigger without permission?!
Piece of shit!
Don't get so worked up, Pepper.
Just cause...
Just cause I lost my Hands!
All of you are looking down on me!
He left me all alone!
I'm only doing the job that I've accepted from him.
The job from Seven.
Stop it! You know what'll happen...
...if you push yourself any farther.
Hey?!
That woman has nothing to do with me.
But, to you, she's...
No matter what she says, I'm the one who decided to do it.
I chose to do everything.
Isn't that right, Juzo Inui?
You...
This is the worst. Seriously.
I can't believe I'm asking you to do something like this.
Inui Juzo...
Take care of Pepper...
...for me.
Twin female Extendeds. They're the secretaries of Berühren's top officials.
I met them once.
Did they retrieve Seven?
Gun Slave Units were made as tools for Hands,
but they aren't mentally controlled.
It's just that the units all lose their memories from all the extension work done,
making their feelings easier to control.
You thought he was just something you owned, but he chose to stay by your side.
Man, this is so stupid.
So you already have it.
People like that.
Come to think of it, I promised to tell you if you beat Seven.
I'll tell you where your partner is.
The man you captured was Jean Claude.
He's a member of the Security Bureau
that lost his family due to the Armed Statue bombing case.
I see.
I listened in.
And now I know.
No, I've always known.
The size of the monster I have to face.
My superiors are in collusion with them and so much has been covered up.
I can't stay silent after all they've done.
Olivier.
Go home for today.
Juzo... You're actually quite the womanizer.
Huh? What?
Wh-What the hell is this?!
We will return all your belongings that have not been taken as evidence.
If that's what you wish for, I'll...
Man, I'm so pissed off...
My clothes reek of gunpowder because of that guy.
Quit joking around...
You'll reach the main western military headquarters once we get through here.
Why?
You know, don't you?
What'll happen to you if you go back to the military after running once.
I'll be disposed of either way.
You didn't have to bother coming back.
I didn't want to treat the partner that had my back like a tool.
But, well... That's my own selfishness.
We were in a war.
As a shooter, I should have led a tool like you better.
Don't worry.
They shouldn't treat you too bad.
What comes after that is what's important.
Laugh, Juzo.
You should do stupid things, struggle, and suffer like a normal person.
Then make friends you can laugh about those times with.
You need someone like that.
When we can both laugh about the present like that,
we should meet here again during the season when all that white fluff dances...
--Juzo. --Juzo!
We came to get you.
Chris was worried because you were late coming home.
Isn't it weird that this place has so many stairs even though it's a hospital?
While I don't think they'd do anything rash again so quickly,
have you forgotten that you're currently being targeted?
That is a reasonable argument,
but I need to get used to the sub-brain inhibitor that Mary installed.
That's right! This is rehabilitation!
Juzo? Was there a problem?
I know now, myself.
The size of the monster I have to face.
I'll tell you where your partner is.
What are you acting so cool for?
With such a lovely patch on your butt.
You're right. It's quite lovely.
Good for you.
Such a young lady likes you.
Young lady?
That's right! She's a really cute girl named Rosa!
H-Hey, Mary!
Did you know about this and stay quiet about it?!
But it looks good on you, Juzo!
That's not the problem!
Mary!
