    This uncivilized sound...

    What are you doing?
[00:26] Haruka
    Huh? Um...
[00:28] Naga
    The compressor
[00:30] Naga
    makes a nice sound, doesn't it?
[00:32] Haruka
    Whoa! You get it, too?
[00:34] Naga
    I know someone named Morita who's into trains.

[00:43] Gran
    I thought so! You're Naganuma-san!
[00:47] Haruka
    Huh?
[00:47] Gran
    Good luck in the gubernatorial elections!
[00:50] Gran
    You take your work seriously. I like that!

    An incident likely requires system analysis.
    
    Come in ASAP
[00:56] ---
    Thank you.
[00:57] Haruka
    Huh?
[00:57] ---
    I'll do my best to represent
    the voices of the people.
[01:01] Haruka
    I was looking forward to an
    abandoned train-line tour...
[01:13] Asami
    In response to an increase in heinous crimes,
[01:15] Asami
    a new movement is picking up steam in police
    and security forces around the world.
[01:21] ---
    This is the story of the services
    performed by ACTIVE in Japan.
SIGN    File 7: Long Rail Life
SIGN    Terao Kazuyoshi Office
[02:50] Cop
    Perp is currently heading west
    from Governor Terao's office,
[02:54] Cop
    on Shin Mejiro Avenue!
[02:56] Cop
    The governor was out of the office,
    and no property damage was done!
[02:59] SWAT
    Stop right there!
[03:00] SWAT
    Stop!
[03:04] SWAT
    What's with that Willwear?
[03:08] SWAT
    Retreat!
[03:09] SWAT
    Retreat!
SIGN    Target
[03:20] Kuro
    Seriously?
[03:21] Cop
    We'll handle luring the perp,
    so please take care of him!
[03:24] Asami
    That's what we'd like to do, but...
[03:26] Sena
    Do we have the prefecture's go-ahead yet?
[03:28] Rin
    There's zero chance of that.
[03:29] Rin
    I'm getting a BS reason about how the
    prefecture's roads can't be destroyed.
[03:34] Kuro
    God!
[03:39] Haruka
    Sorry to be late!
[03:41] Rin
    Sorry, and on your day off, too.
[03:43] Haruka
    No problem.
[03:45] Haruka
    Wow, this looks a pain in the butt.
[03:48] Funa
    Target is currently en route toward the
    metropolitan government building at 2kph.
[03:51] Kyou
    It appears the EM dome uses parts from
    an overseas arms manufacturer.
[03:57] Haruka
    What's he after?
[03:58] Rin
    Punishing the governor.
[04:00] Haruka
    Huh?
SIGN    If nothing changes in the government,
    Tokyo is finished.
    
    The Democratic Liberal Party and the governor are traitors.
    
    Governor, become the victim of a lightning strike.
    Today is the day you'll be judged.
[04:02] Rin
    There was a post on a social
    network site about the attack.
SIGN    Governor, become the victim of a lightning strike. Today is the day you'll be judged. I will neither run nor hide.
SIGN    I will neither run nor hide.
[04:06] Funa
    He seems pretty off the rails.
[04:09] Haruka
    Why don't they just go to the metropolitan
    government building, and get it over with?
[04:12] Rin
    Yeah, that made me wonder, too.
[04:14] Haruka
    Then we can wrap this up, and I
    can go see abandoned train lines!
[04:17] RF
    Huh?
[04:18] Haruka
    Um...
[04:20] Gov
    Just target me!
[04:22] Gov
    What moved you to take such dangerous action?
[04:25] Gov
    This is an act of terrorism,
    involving innocent civilians!
[04:28] Hinata
    Poor governor...
[04:29] Hinata
    First, corruption charges kill
    his popularity, and now this.
[04:32] Hachi
    Not necessarily.
[04:33] Hinata
    Huh?
[04:34] Hachi
    He might be thinking he can turn it all
    around, if he plays his cards right.
SIGN    Perpetrator Identified
[04:40] Rin
    So fast! Nice work, Madoka-chan!
SIGN    I support the Peace Party's Naganuma-sensei
    Let's restore politics to what they should be!
[04:43] Rin
    The Peace Party...
[04:44] Rin
    The opposition candidate, huh?
[04:47] Funa
    Kobari Masataka, age forty, single.
[04:53] Haruka
    Kobari?
[04:57] Ina
    At the moment, we're just
    gathering supporting evidence.
[04:59] Ina
    For now, let's contact HQ—
[05:00] TVs
    Naganuma-san!
[05:01] TVs
    We hear the person responsible is
    from your group of supporters!
[05:04] TVs
    Didn't you see any warning signs?
[05:06] ---
    Ah...
[05:07] TVs
    You'll surely be expected
    to assume responsibility.
[05:10] Naga
    Please, not right now...
[05:12] Ina
    We have been unable to contact
    him for the past month or so.
[05:15] Ina
    We'll hold an official press conference later.
[05:18] TV
    Please! Just one comment!
[05:22] Eriko
    Governor!
[05:23] Eriko
    The attacker has publicly stated
    that you are his target.
[05:26] Eriko
    How do you intend to counter this threat?
[05:29] Eriko
    Don't worry!
[05:31] Eriko
    I have led this prefecture for
    seven and a half years!
[05:33] Eriko
    As incompetent as I, Terao Kazuyoshi, may be,
    I refuse to be a burden on my constituents!
[05:38] Eriko
    I will protect their peace and safety!
[05:41] Rin
    I find it hard to believe that he
    and Inagi-kun are responsible.
[05:45] Haruka
    I'm not sure how much longer
    Kuroki-san and his crew can wait!
[05:48] Rin
    Huh?
[05:51] Kuro
    If we frame it as traffic support for now,
    we won't need permission, right?
[05:55] Kuro
    This street is currently blocked from use.
[05:58] Kuro
    Wait at least, uh...
[06:00] Kuro
    One hour until it's cleared!
[06:06] Asami
    He's waiting?
[06:12] Kobari
    Will you really keep your promise?
[06:15] Man
    There's no need for concern.
[06:17] Man
    Go straight to the metropolitan government
    building, no matter what happens.
[06:28] Kobari
    I have no choice!
[06:41] Sena
    Oscar VI!
[06:42] Asami
    Got it!
[06:47] Asami
    The target's headed to
    Shinjuku via the train tracks!
[06:50] Haruka
    He hopes to reach the metropolitan government
    building from the track guardrails.
[06:54] Haruka
    Let me handle this!
[06:56] Haruka
    His biggest mistake was entering the tracks!
[06:59] Rin
    Haruka-chan's unusually fired up.
[07:03] Rin
    We have permission.
[07:04] Rin
    All Oscar units, return to
    exchange battery packs.
[07:11] Sena
    Cut it out, Oscar II!
[07:12] Kuro
    Oscar II, I, and VI have returned!
[07:14] Asami
    Please let me down!
[07:16] Rin
    Hang on, I'll open the aft hatch.
[07:18] Kuro
    Roger!
[07:23] Hinata
    Thanks! I'll return it later.
[07:25] Friend
    Okay, no problem.
[07:28] Hinata
    President?
[07:28] Hachi
    Oh, sorry.
[07:30] Hachi
    Something about that incident's bothering me,
    so I'm borrowing your computer.
[07:33] Hinata
    Oh, the TV finally gave out?
[07:37] Hachi
    It was pretty old.
[07:38] Hinata
    What? He still hasn't been caught?
[07:42] Hachi
    No.
[07:42] Hachi
    There's some talk that he was
    against projection mapping.
[07:45] Hinata
    That reconstruction event?
[07:48] Hachi
    What are you doing?
[07:49] Hinata
    Oh, sorry.
SIGN    Do you wish to patch this program? Program Name: Liko app
[07:51] Liko
    Would you like to patch the software?
[07:53] Hachi
    Isn't this the Liko modding tool
    that's distributed underground?
[07:57] Hinata
    I borrowed it from a friend.
SIGN    Installing
[07:59] Hinata
    I heard it'd make her even
    more useful than before.
SIGN    Update complete.
[08:02] Liko
    Liko's updated!
[08:05] Hachi
    She's just freeware, anyway,
[08:07] Hachi
    and it's your computer, after all.
    I don't see a problem.
[08:10] Hinata
    Thank you.
[08:11] Hinata
    It's just that I haven't found enough
    references for my paper topic.
[08:15] Hachi
    And you want Liko to help you?
[08:17] Hinata
    Yes, it's about the Fruit of Tragedy.
[08:19] Hachi
    You're writing about that terrorist attack?
[08:21] Hachi
    Um... It was about a decade ago, right?
[08:24] Hinata
    Right. But I haven't found anything
    about the cult leader back then.
[08:28] ---
    Ah...
[08:30] Hachi
    Yeah, that might be hard to find.
SIGN    Operation "Go with the Tracks!"
[08:36] Kuro
    Will this work?
[08:38] Sena
    I support this plan.
[08:39] Sena
    It's logical and appropriate.
[08:42] Asami
    I'm impressed it was put together so quickly.
SIGN    Data Transfer in Progress
[08:46] Haruka
    Madoka-chan, please request permission.
[08:49] Haruka
    How is it there, Kyoukai-san?
[08:50] Kyou
    Proceeding with preparations, as requested.
[08:52] Haruka
    All right! Just wait, perp!
[08:55] Haruka
    I'm furious that I had to cancel my tour!
[08:58] Asami
    There's more to find?
[09:01] Haruka
    Just a little something that might help
    when we apprehend the perp.
[09:06] Rin
    Permission granted!
[09:07] Madoka
    Permission granted!
SIGN    Permission Granted
[09:09] Funa
    We have permission from all rail agencies.
[09:12] Rin
    Okay, now we just need to execute the plan!
[09:15] Kuro
    All right! Let's stop this guy!
[09:17] Funa
    Oh!
[09:19] Funa
    Sorry to interject when you're all ready to go...
[09:23] ---
    Huh?
[09:24] Funa
    But the governor has not given permission.
[09:26] Rin
    Huh? But this doesn't fall under his jurisdiction!
SIGN    Permission Denied
[09:29] Funa
    Well, apparently, the new elevated tracks
    on Shinjuku Station's north side
[09:33] Funa
    belong to the prefecture.
SIGN    Permission Denied
[09:35] All
    Huh?!
[09:37] Asami
    You've got to be kidding.
[09:38] Rin
    What's wrong with the governor?
[09:40] Rin
    He's the one being targeted!
SIGN    Goal: 0 Crime
[09:44] Gov
    Everyone...
[09:45] Gov
    We are now prepared to apprehend the terrorist!
[09:53] Eriko
    Is that
[09:54] Eriko
    a missile?
[09:56] Gov
    No.
[09:57] Gov
    I'd foreseen the rise of
    numerous futuristic crimes,
[10:00] Gov
    and asked my alma mater, OIT,
[10:02] Gov
    or the Oshamanbe Institute of Technology,
    to develop this using my private funds.
[10:06] Gov
    It's a non-lethal, criminal-suppression rocket!
[10:09] Gov
    It is equipped with a unique anti-phase,
    high-voltage generator,
[10:14] Gov
    which enables it to neutralize that
    EM dome with little issue!
[10:21] Rin
    So that's his play...
[10:23] Funa
    He interfered with our work
    to regain his approval ratings.
[10:28] Rin
    Still, using that won't leave the perp unscathed.
[10:37] Asami
    Um, what are you looking at, Haruka-san?
[10:41] Haruka
    A diorama of the very first Amarube railway
    bridge, which was part of the San'in Line.
[10:46] Haruka
    Don't you just love the sturdy steel framework?
[10:49] Haruka
    Look at the power and beauty of its form!
[10:51] Asami
    Let's not use this time for personal hobbies.
[10:55] Haruka
    Do you notice anything?
[10:56] Asami
    Huh?
[11:01] Asami
    There's a father with a young daughter
[11:04] Asami
    in all of the dioramas.
[11:06] Haruka
    Yes. This pair is the key
[11:10] Haruka
    to cracking this case.
[11:11] Asami
    But Kobari is single and has no children.
[11:16] Haruka
    I thought so.
[11:21] Rin
    That's it!
[11:22] Rin
    Continue the operation!
    We'll get to Shinjuku first!
[11:25] Rin
    Funasaka-san, contact the governor!
[11:37] Gov
    What?
[11:38] Gov
    The rocket can't be launched? What's going on?
[11:41] Secretary
    It's aviation law.
[11:43] Rin
    It would violate aviation
    law article 99, section 2.
[11:47] Rin
    You won't get away with claiming ignorance.
[11:50] Rin
    We could, however, proceed with our
    operation without infringing on any laws.
[11:56] Gov
    Damn that Unit 8!
[11:58] Eriko
    After so much preparation,
    why let Unit 8 take over?
[12:01] Gov
    I have determined that doing so
[12:03] Gov
    would better let us safeguard our citizens.
[12:06] Eriko
    But, Governor, aren't you against Willwear use?
[12:10] Gov
    Well,
[12:11] Gov
    regardless of my personal opinions,
    civilian lives come first.
[12:14] Gov
    That is my civic duty, after all.
[12:18] Rin
    I guess politicians have to be
    this shameless to succeed.
[12:23] Rin
    Let's go over the operation.
[12:26] Rin
    Kyoukai-kun will soon finish
[12:28] Rin
    preparing the anti-phase,
    high-voltage generator.
[12:31] Sena
    Once we hook it to the Shinjuku Station rails
[12:33] Sena
    and activate its voltage, the repulsion will
    blow a hole in the target's EM dome.
[12:37] Kuro
    Then we'll rush that point.
[12:40] Kuro
    That role falls to me, obviously!
[12:42] Asami
    No, I can handle close-quarters combat.
[12:44] Haruka
    Let me go.
[12:45] Asami
    Huh?
[12:46] Rin
    Haruka-chan?
[12:47] Asami
    No way!
[12:48] Asami
    Haruka-san, you're specialized for
    network and search operations.
[12:51] Haruka
    Do you all know anything about
    signals and security devices?
[12:55] Haruka
    Besides, there's one more important
    reason why I should go.
[12:59] Asami
    Is it something to do with the dioramas?
[13:02] Haruka
    Oh, that'd be two reasons, then!
[13:04] Rin
    So can I count on you?
[13:06] Haruka
    Yes!
[13:08] Funa
    Commencing preparation to equip Willwear.
[13:12] Madoka
    Vitals, all green.
[13:14] Rin
    Lock.
[13:24] ?
    Meti-structure, set Ibuki unit.
[13:44] Haruka
    Here it comes! The Chiki 5500,
[13:46] Haruka
    a cargo train for transporting long rails!
[13:49] Asami
    It's finally time to put an end to this.
[13:51] Asami
    Er... Huh?
[13:52] Haruka
    Wow, I've never seen it before!
[13:54] Haruka
    It really does pack a punch!
[13:57] Asami
    Was this the important reason?
[14:04] Haruka
    Here comes the enemy.
[14:06] Rin
    Power on the anti-phase, high-voltage generator!
[14:15] Haruka
    Forget it!
[14:16] Haruka
    Switch the third crossover and
    the sixth scissors crossing.
[14:22] Haruka
    Next, switch the second single cross
[14:25] Haruka
    and the seventh scissors crossing.
[14:26] Haruka
    Infiltrate the fourth switch system,
[14:28] Haruka
    switch the double slip, DC, and Y-junction.
[14:33] Haruka
    Going in!
[14:37] Haruka
    Just as I expected.
[14:39] Haruka
    Prepare backup operation!
[14:55] Haruka
    There's nowhere left to go.
[14:59] Asami
    Will she really be all right by herself?
[15:01] Kuro
    We have to trust her.
[15:07] Haruka
    The original Amarube bridge was the best.
[15:10] Kobari
    Huh?
[15:11] Asami
    What?
[15:12] Funa
    What is she talking about?
[15:14] Haruka
    The way it reaches into
    the sky, without pretense...
[15:16] Haruka
    And all those bare steel beams get to you.
[15:20] Kobari
    What are you talking about?
[15:22] Haruka
    Building a bridge in such a place is
[15:24] Haruka
    like challenging nature itself, don't you think?
[15:27] Haruka
    All that passion and expertise in one bridge!
[15:29] Haruka
    It really tugs on your heartstrings!
[15:32] Asami
    Wait, he's actually listening?
[15:35] Haruka
    I've never seen the original itself, of course,
[15:39] Haruka
    but I was able to experience the feeling,
    thanks to a wonderful diorama.
[15:44] Haruka
    Kobari-san,
[15:46] Haruka
    it was your diorama.
[15:50] Asami
    He's the one who made it?
[15:52] Haruka
    I like trains, buses,
[15:55] Haruka
    extinguishers, and signals...
    All kinds of things made by people.
[15:59] Haruka
    It's thanks to you, Kobari-san.
[16:03] Haruka
    But why are you trying to run, even if it
    means destroying Shinjuku Station?
[16:08] Haruka
    You love trains!
[16:14] Haruka
    You're a kind man who also loves children.
[16:20] ---
    Kobari-san,
[16:21] Haruka
    records state that you're childless.
[16:24] Haruka
    But you send a fixed monthly sum under a
    different name to a Filipino girl, don't you?
[16:30] Kobari
    Huh?
[16:31] Haruka
    I'm sorry, but it's my job to look around.
[16:35] Haruka
    I learned the girl won't live long unless she
    gets an organ transplant in America.
[16:41] Haruka
    She's your daughter,
[16:43] Haruka
    isn't she?
[16:49] Man
    I'll give you my full support
    for the organ transplant.
[16:52] Man
    But you are not to speak a word of this,
[16:55] Man
    other than about your relationship with
    Naganuma. That is my condition.
[16:59] Kobari
    I have no daughter.
[17:02] Kobari
    My goal is
[17:04] Kobari
    to punish the governor!
[17:05] Kobari
    That's all!
[17:09] Rin
    No, Oscar III!
[17:10] Rin
    Get away from him!
[17:12] Kobari
    Get out!
[17:13] Kobari
    Please get out!
[17:14] Haruka
    I won't!
[17:17] Haruka
    All right!
[17:18] Asami
    Oscar II!
[17:19] Kuro
    Got it!
[17:24] Kuro
    Okay, go!
[17:29] Rin
    Power on the generator!
[17:41] Kobari
    I'm sorry.
[17:45] Kuro
    Hey, that doesn't look good!
[17:46] Asami
    Oscar III!
[17:49] Haruka
    Please remember the main Sekihoku Line's...
[17:52] Haruka
    Shoubou Pass!
[17:55] Haruka
    Remember the powerful DD51 trains
    that raced up the steep slope
[17:59] Haruka
    with their twin engines!
[18:01] Haruka
    Isn't that
[18:03] Haruka
    just like you and your daughter?
[18:05] Haruka
    Missing either one would mean failure!
[18:08] Haruka
    You'd be overcome by the slopes of the pass!
[18:10] Haruka
    You have to keep running together, hand-in-hand,
[18:15] Haruka
    on that long rail known as life!
[18:18] Haruka
    Please don't commit any more crimes.
[18:21] Haruka
    Don't sever the link that holds
    the two engines together!
[18:24] Haruka
    I want to help both you and your daughter.
[18:28] Haruka
    That's why you need to tell us the whole truth
[18:32] Haruka
    by turning yourself in!
[18:46] Asami
    He stopped.
[18:50] Kobari
    I...
[18:51] Kobari
    I just...
[18:53] Man
    You are not to speak a word.
[18:59] Haruka
    Kobari-san...
[19:02] Doc
    And here I thought you'd chosen
    your daughter over your hobby,
[19:05] Doc
    you loser.
[19:07] Doc
    Bye, Kobari-san.
[19:12] Kobari
    Oh, no! I've lost control of the system!
[19:15] Haruka
    What?
[19:15] Kuro
    Huh?
[19:17] Rin
    At a time like this?
[19:18] Kyou
    This is bad!
[19:19] Kyou
    The Wear can't withstand this amount of output.
[19:21] Funa
    Oscar III!
[19:36] Haruka
    Kobari-san?
[19:40] Kobari
    I have no daughter...
[19:42] Kobari
    I have no daughter!
[19:47] Haruka
    Kobari-san...
[19:49] Haruka
    Kobari-san!
[19:55] Asami
    Oh, no...
[20:02] Mutos
    Who gave him
[20:04] Mutos
    Logos's Willwear without permission?
[20:09] Eriko
    Some have voiced approval of the governor's
    response to the most recent incident.
[20:13] Eriko
    The governor's supporters are hopeful
    about the upcoming elections...
[20:15] Kyou
    Funasaka-san.
[20:16] Kyou
    About Kobari's Willwear...
[20:18] Kyou
    A program enabling external control
[20:21] Kyou
    was snuck into its system.
[20:24] Funa
    Do you think you can trace it to the mastermind?
[20:27] Kyou
    It will be difficult.
[20:29] Kyou
    I wish my council had
    investigative authority, as well.
[20:34] Funa
    I hear you.
[20:37] Eriko
    As previously reported,
    Diet member Naganuma Daizou,
SIGN    Saint IMS Hospital
[20:40] Eriko
    of the Peace Party, who was planning to
    enter the upcoming gubernatorial race,
[20:44] Eriko
    was found dead today, at 4:20 PM, in his room
[20:48] Eriko
    at the Akasaka Diet dormitory.
[20:50] Eriko
    The cause of death was acute cardiac arrest.
[20:53] Eriko
    Some sources report it was a suicide,
[20:55] Eriko
    but no link between him and the attack
    on the governor has been established.
[21:00] Rin
    Why would he commit suicide?
[21:03] Ina
    He'd turned down Kobari's request for help.
[21:07] Ina
    He'd received reports that their intermediary
    was operating an illegal organization.
[21:11] Ina
    But he felt responsible,
[21:13] Ina
    feeling that the decision
    had made Kobari reckless.
[21:17] Ina
    In the end, only the governor
[21:19] Ina
    gained anything from this.
[21:22] Rin
    I don't understand.
[21:24] Rin
    There are all these dots around
    this case that I can't connect.
[21:28] Rin
    I can't quite put a finger on it,
[21:30] Rin
    but I think there's a reason...
[21:33] Rin
    Several reasons, even.
[21:35] Ina
    Someone who was involved
[21:38] Ina
    is still hiding?
[21:46] Asami
    Haruka-san?
[21:48] Haruka
    I couldn't do anything...
[21:51] Asami
    That's not true!
[21:53] Asami
    You gathered donations for
    Kobari-san's daughter's surgery.
[21:57] Haruka
    But now, Kobari-san's wish
[22:01] Haruka
    will never come true.
[22:08] Haruka
    Sorry.
[22:10] Haruka
    Let me stay like this a while.
