That wound... what happened to your eyes?

I wasn't careful enough, got hit by Arts. Don't worry about it, it doesn't matter now. This... *cough*... is for you.

Medic, staunch his bleeding!

No... Madam Ch'en, there's no need. I've already accepted...

Stop talking!

It's true. Do you see how many times I've been shot? I'm blind, and don't want to move anymore. I've had enough of the pain. I'm so tired.

Take it, Madam Ch'en... S249TA, F106.

49. I've memorized the location.

Details are on the paper. The intel about Reunion's infiltration was not sent to the other leaders, but just to one party... There must be a reason behind it. You must look into it, the sooner the better.

I will.

*cough*... It was no easy task for me to get this... Anyway, Madam Ch'en, I didn't expect things to end up like this.

Even though I was finally able to make a contribution, I didn't think this would be how I did it...

None of us did. Thanks to your bravery, we now have a chance to stop the enemy.

Haha... *cough*... I never liked Lungmen, and Lungmen never liked me.

But now, I've finally managed to do something for Lungmen. Not bad for a bum like me, right...

You're calling one of the Chung Shui Big Three a bum?

Compared to you, Madam Oni, I'm nothing more than a bum.

...

...Madam Ch'en, how's Madam Oni doing? Is she still working as Inspector?

She is. She's been my partner for a long time.

Madam Ch'en, Madam Oni... is too honest and frank. No one in the gang... *cough*... dared to challenge her.

But she is no match for those Lungmen moguls. Please keep an eye on her.

Don't let anyone demean her. I won't let those stuck-up plutocrats insult her because of her background!

This is the only favor I ask of you. Just one... *cough* *cough*...

Don't worry about that. Hoshiguma is very strong. No one can hurt her.

No matter how powerful, everyone has their limits.

The entire L.G.D. stands with her.

Good, that's a relief. Madam Oni, Madam Ch'en, I have no regrets now.

Madam Ch'en, are you still here?

I am.

Am I a good person?

A few years ago, a bit hard to say. But now you are, without a doubt. Lungmen is proud of having citizens like you.

Hahaha... *cough*... Haha... a pathetic Infected can be a good citizen?

Some people in Lungmen are indeed obsessed with Oripathy, but you'd be better off asking Lungmen directly.

How do I do that? Will a city answer me?

Heh. I will, on its behalf.

And it says, 'I don't mind.'

Ah Faat, you have always been - and always will be - one of Lungmen's best.

Thank you, Madam Ch'en. Thank you so much.

Madam Chen, there are two things I'd like you to relay to Madam Oni.

You should tell her yourself.

What do you mean? Are you saying...

...Boss?

It's me. I'm right here.

Madam Ch'en, you should've told me sooner.

She chose to not say anything.

Boss, did I do a good job?

Not good enough. You can't call it a good job until you survive to see things through.

Well damn, haha... I've already used up my luck to have you carry me on your back, Boss.

Anywhere you want to go? You always refused to tell me where you came from.

Here, Lungmen. As a matter of fact, I've never been to other cities. If possible, just bury me in that old place.

The hideout? But... that place is a complete wreck now, long deserted. To be honest, I'm not sure how I'd clean it up.

It's okay. As long as I'm... with the others.

I will.

Boss... Even though we've always been scared of you, we've also always... cheered you on.

We've always... cheered...

Same here.
