… Recently, there have been videos of drug treatment over the virtual internet. A.R.C. has released their test results, proving that it is indeed effective...[ROBO_Head]
Mr. Mark, hello. This unit has confirmed that your condition has stabilized.Mark
Just luck. That was one weak hacker. Check it out. We're all over the TV.[TV]
... The strange comas have vanished without a trace. And as for where the digital drug and the information regarding its treatment came from… That still remains a mystery. A spokesperson for the Administration Bureau has said that they are in possession of all relevant information...[ROBO_Head]
This unit has confirmed that the Administration Bureau has decided to not release any information. Such information includes both the antidote that Mr. Mark created and the fact that Baro was using the virtual internet to sell the drug... Just as Mr. Mark predicted.Mark
Of course. They're bureaucrats, after all. They gave me a stack of cash so I wouldn't tell everyone how they dragged on with the investigation... Oh yeah, I transferred half the reward to your bank account. Make sure and get back to me.[ROBO_Head]
….Mark
Come on. Say something.[ROBO_Head]
This unit thinks that Mr. Mark did a great thing. The Administration Bureau should announce this information.Mark
Nah. After all this, the gangs will pack things up for a while. They won't go straight to making Tequila 2.0.... That's what we were hoping for, isn't it? Plus, I'm getting ready to leave the Administration Bureau.[ROBO_Head]
Leave?Mark
Yeah. We may have cracked the case, but a lot of what we did was against the rules. There's plenty of people who aren't too fond of me now. Never liked them anyway. This is how it ought to be.[ROBO_Head]
Question: What will Mr. Mark do now?Mark
... Why do you wanna know?[ROBO_Head]
This unit is curious. If that question was too much, please forgive this unit.Mark
... When I get out of the hospital, I'm gonna join A.R.C.'s IT department. After the director learned about what we did, he felt like I could help them with a few things. He came calling a few days ago... We came to an agreement.[ROBO_Head]
Excellent. Congratulations. This means you will join A.R.C. Sky.Mark
Yeah. If all goes well, I ain't never coming down. Diego's definitely got his eyes on me. Being up there, I'll be much safer... Plus, compared to the Administration Bureau, there will be much more room to develop there.[ROBO_Head]
This means, we will only be able to communicate on iM.Mark
... No. You won't be able to contact me.[ROBO_Head]
What do you mean?Mark
I deleted my account. I'm not gonna use iM anymore. From now on, no one will be able to find my data online, not even you.[ROBO_Head]
This unit does not understand your reasoning.Mark
You've never told me who you are. I'm sorry to say it, but I can't trust a tech wiz who always calls themself "This unit" and always uses a proxy robot.[ROBO_Head]
….Mark
Plus, I'm gonna be on the team responsible for maintaining cyTus. With your abilities and the capabilities of this robot, there's no way I can keep any of my valuable information from you.[ROBO_Head]
But this unit does not wish to make the virtual internet a dangerous place...Mark
Maybe not now, but in the future... No one knows for sure... I'm gonna be taking on a huge responsibility. I'll be protecting a lot of people. I have to stick to my principles. In any case, thanks for all the help.[ROBO_Head]
Statistical analyses indicate that this statement means... the guest should take their leave.Mark
... That's right.
[Sad ROBO Emoji]
[ROBO_Head]
Good-bye, Mr. Mark.

Jacob
The big wiz, the engineer. What's up?... You here to see how she's doing?Mark
Sorry for bothering you, doc. Hey, can you not call me that? Can't let too many people know what I do.Jacob
Just kiddin' around. Haha. You wanna get caught up?Mark
How'd... the surgery go?Jacob
Relax. She's been healing well. The injured area has been reconstructed. And that video you provided helped a lot. Let her rest. She should wake up tomorrow. It's just...Mark
... Just what?Jacob
She's been using drugs for a long time. She'll suffer long term consequences for the rest of her life. Her brain is going to be pretty weak. Besides photophobia and increased sensitivity... If she's stimulated the wrong way while on cyTus, she may fall into another coma and never wake up.Jacob
Of course, we'll explain everything to her. But nowadays... it's almost impossible to not use the internet. Unfortunately, if she doesn't move to Node 13 or something like that, I can't guarantee that it won't happen again.Mark
I understand. That is my new job, after all... If I can make cyTus a safer place, nothing should happen to her.Jacob
... You've already done a lot for her. You sure you don't want me to tell her who paid for her medical bills? I'm sure she'll want to know who her savior is.Mark
Nah. It wasn't my money, anyway. And... I had help. I'm getting out of here tomorrow. Probably won't come back. Thanks for taking care of us.Jacob
…Mark
I'm getting out of here tomorrow. Probably won't come back. Thanks for taking care of us.
[Footsteps]
Mark
... Oh yeah, Doc. I didn't tell you about the medical bills. How’d you know?Jacob
Just a guess... haha. I've been a neurologist here for a long time. I've seen a lot... You've been checking on this girl every day. I may not know everything... but I can fill in the blanks.Mark
Oh...
[Footsteps]
Jacob
Most of the patients I see are seriously injured... One girl was injured so severely that she couldn't continue living with her family. She had no choice but to lie in a bed for years. The girl you're helping... We're fortunate that she'll basically return back to normal.Jacob
Did you know that after cyTus appeared, more and more of these types of patients started appearing. The illness got more complicated as well... Perhaps the virtual internet is more dangerous than everyone expected? As a doctor, it's hard for me not to separate the two.Mark
….Jacob
But... knowing you're out there... perhaps I can relax a little? For these kids, there's nowhere for them to go. For them, maybe that's the real world. Someone's gotta be out there protecting them...
[Footsteps]
Mark
... I'll do my best.
