Blood-C: The Last Dark Page #4

A year ago, he decided

to focus on Seventh Heaven

for his next article.

Then pressure came from higher up,

and the project was canceled.

But my dad wouldn't quit.

He said he was writing

the article, no matter what.

I wanted to help him,

so I conducted my own research.

I was pretty confident

in my internet and PC skills.

I hacked into

Seventh Heaven's systems,

and discovered that

they were hiring many people,

who later ended up disappearing.

And that something

called the Tower was involved.

Dad took my proof, and said

he'd meet with Fumito Nanahara.

He said thank you, and went out.

And then...

...he never came back...

If I hadn't done it...

My dad... My dad...

He hasn't ever returned...

And it's all my fault.

I came here to search for my dad.

But I was afraid of what I could find,

so I just stopped hacking.

What if he is-- dead?

What about your father?

I don't have one.

But I had someone

who was like a father to me.

He was very kind...

How can you be so strong?

The same reason your

father could.

Whatever I decide to start,

I see through to the end.

That was my choice.

So that I could be me...

Now I understand why

I couldn't leave you alone.

We're a lot alike...

We're lonely.

Guess what? Nothing about

what happened at Tsuji Academy.

Damn.

Mana and Saya haven't shown up.

She was hurt pretty bad.

Maybe Mana

is taking care of her.

Really, she should go to a hospital...

Good morning.

Morning.

--Hey, what the--

--Sorry guys.

We stayed up late last night.

Good morning, Tsuki.

Mana!

I'm sorry the information

I gave you was wrong.

It wasn't on purpose, was it?

I would never do that! Never...

All right, then.

If it wasn't a lie,

then that's fine.

Does it hurt?

No.

Really?

Really.

I hope you get better soon.

Um, well...

I think I got the wrong

impression of you, just a little.

How can you be so arrogant

while you're apologizing?

Shut up!

Anyway,

thank you for saving Hiiragi!

--She's ignoring me?!

--There, there...

Everyone. I have something

to discuss with you.

Hacking?

Yes.

You're sure about this, Mana?

I am. I will accomplish

nothing by just running away.

No matter what

the result may be.

Very well, Hiiragi.

After the events

at Tsuji Academy,

the Tower... I mean,

Fumito, will be coming for us.

So we need to find the Tower's

base before they neutralize us.

Everyone, bear that in mind.

Right!

I'm told you make a prisoner

of everyone you meet.

I don't do anything.

Ask, and it will be given to you;

seek, and you will find;

knock, and it will

be opened to you.

Humans must find

the answers for themselves.

Have you found yours, Saya?

"I washed it"

Oh...

You made this for me?

I just poured you some of

what was over there.

Thank you.

Want some, too?

I...

Mr. Mogari made this.

"To thank you guys

for your hard work," he said.

He said he'd like

you to have some, too.

You aren't going to rest?

I think I'm nearly there,

so I can't sleep yet. And...

You know, this is like

your power. This is my weapon.

I understand.

What's going on?!

I found it.

The Tower's headquarters.

The Tokyo Bay Breakwater?

It really was amazing!

The way she dodged walls

and pursuit was just godly...

Why didn't you wake me for the fun?!

But nothing is out there.

Not from an address search.

But you can see

it from an aerial view.

Uh? I see nothing there.

They put false data

in the satellite image.

Remove it, and...

Wow.

You've done very well.

Saya.

Fumito is here.

Hiding something this big...

Those Tower guys are awesome.

And we found it. Guess it

makes us pretty awesome, too.

Right?

Right.

I really can't come with you?

No.

They will be armed.

You wouldn't stand a chance.

But you...

You saw it, right?

Most injuries won't stop me.

And don't you still have things

to do with your weapon?

That's right.

I have to find my dad.

All we can do is support,

but you can count on us.

Right, ladies?

Ready, standing by.

If something happens, let us know.

We'll hold out as long as we can.

If it gets bad, run.

Thank you.

Okay. We're changing positions, too.

Where's the target?

It's started!

Fuji, make sure

the sound doesn't cut out.

Right.

Tsuki, can you see

what's happening inside?

I have the frequency

they're using.

--Can you tell how many?

--Yes!

Saya, we have

their numbers and positions.

The farther you ascend,

the more they carry radios.

Fumito must be on the top floor.

--No.

--What?

Fumito knows of

things stronger than humans.

Things that do not use radios.

The Elder Bairns.

Which way has less people?

The basement!

--Where's the entrance?

--Just a sec.

Nice trick.

Saya?

Keep going.

O-Okay.

You will never reach Mr. Fumito!

You're so pathetic,

Saya Kisaragi.

Don't you call me that name!

I have the route to the basement.

From the elevator hall.

The door on the right, far in the back.

Saya?

That's enough, Kuto.

Yes, Mr. Fumito.

Behold. This is the power

of the one who will rule the world.

Mr. Fumito...!

--What is that sound?

--What's going on?

Saya, run straight forward. Hurry!

Saya... Next, go left.

You can reach the

lowest level from there.

Saya?

I'm fine. Don't worry.

Good evening, Saya.

This is...

What is...

What is this?

Stop it.

Stop it...

Saya! Saya! What's wrong? Saya!

Fumi--

Saya!Saya!

Fuji!

It's no use!

The connection's down!

I don't want interruptions,

now that we're finally together.

So I've shut down your radios.

I hope you will understand.

I'm glad you came to see me.

But I wish you hadn't

broken so many things.

It's finally taken effect, Kuroto.

I brought the

amount you requested.

All that running, and it

only works now. What a freak.

That coffee...

Why did I have to put that

stuff in the coffee personally?

Your young assistants

are such well-behaved kids.

They'd never slip bad

things into someone's drink.

It doesn't work on people.

It's just for you, Saya.

Worried about your Sirrut friends?

You're opening up, at last.

You're here thanks to them.

And while you were

too wary to eat anything,

you did drink that coffee.

They ended up

being useful for something.

Don't get the wrong idea.

I never lied to them.

I simply... used them.

Sirrut originated as

a small internet group.

Full of all those ideals

for more freedom in Tokyo.

Sure, I could

have merely ignored them.

But you can't ever predict

what someone on the net will do.

So I offered financial support,

and became their patron.

The kids believed any information

I leaked, making things easy.

Eventually, they found leads about you,

resulting in your arrival to my mansion.

I admit I never expected

Hiiragi would find this place.

But I contacted Fumito

directly afterwards.

So, what's next, Fumito?

I still don't get why you

spend so much effort on this girl.

Because Saya is special.

Enough to dedicate all of Seventh

Heaven's and the Tower's resources?

Yes.

You said that we would
