I understand.
All right, keep in touch. Let me know if catch wind of anything.
Just press the third button. Mhm.
...Hmm? Dr. {@nickname}?
Where's Amiya?
She went to the slums.
...You actually let her go alone.
...Whatever, at least someone is protecting her.
I suppose you wouldn't be able to do anything even if you went with her. I'll let you off the hook this time.
Did you also come back by yourself?
Oh, Penguin Logistics.
You also need to take better precautions to stay safe. We won't always have the luxury of reliable local guides.
Dr. {@nickname}...
Amiya will not be in Lungmen for a long time, since she has other missions to do.
You'll have to face her again.
...If I were you, I'd make sure to tell her the things that I couldn't say before.

Ah, Doctor?
Were you waiting for me this whole time...
Sorry to have kept you waiting.
Hmm? My complexion looks different from when I left?
...
Some things happened.
I feel like...
Perhaps Madam Ch'en has her own way of looking at things.
Even though her words are harsh, and she has done things that I can't accept...
Maybe... the difference between us isn't that big.
She has her responsibilities.
Oh... I understand now...
She also has her share of burdens to bear.
Perhaps I also...
Amiya, you also have plenty of responsibilities yourself.
...
Is that so...
I... just didn't have other choices.
At least you saw your choices through.
...
...I suppose all these consequences were the results of my persistence.
Doctor, there's no need... to try to comfort me.
Actually, I'm well aware of this.
But what I don't know...
What I don't know, is how long we have to keep going before this world begins to change.
But, what I do know for sure...
Is that I won't give up.
I'll always bear the consequences of my actions, because... I chose this path.
Doctor...
Will you... stay by my side?
Even though... this guilt will always stay with me...
The regret of not being able to bring everyone with me. The regret of not being able to save my friends...
But I must face reality.
With everyone in Rhodes Island...
Hmm? A message from Dr. Kal'tsit...
Dr. Kal'tsit? Did you need something?
Amiya, I've received communications from a few recon squads.
The situation has changed for the worse.
Okay, I'll be right there.
