Gekijouban Psycho-Pass Page #2

Can you buy some time?

Sorry, it's too late for that.

I'm so sorry.

You performed a Memory Scoop

for the investigation?

What the hell were you thinking?

Don't get mad at me...

Chief's orders.

It's not Analyst Karanomori's fault.

The man was a confirmed Latent Criminal.

Just because there's no precedent

doesn't mean it's illegal.

That's awful.

We gave him some drugs

to make his brainwaves stand out more.

We've never had armed illegal

immigrants come in before,

and on top of that, he's a Latent Criminal.

It's not like he has any

rights we need to consider.

Thanks to that, I got results.

Results?

The Chief wants to see you.

What the hell are you using

Inspector Shimotsuki for?

Investigating the incident.

You have no shame!

It's an incident all the same.

We did what had to be done.

Look at this.

I'm certain that you'll recognize him.

He was under your command, after all.

A group of foreign terrorists

smuggle themselves in,

and their memories contain an Enforcer

who deserted three years ago.

Very interesting, don't you think?

You see, my theory is that

Kougami Shinya has finally

become a true criminal.

We've even determined where the illegal

immigrants came from. It was SEAUn.

They originated there,

and were terrorists involved

in anti-government operations.

The Southeast Asian Union,

they're the ones in charge of

managing the Sybil System?

That's right.

The current capital, the artificial

island of Shamballa Float

is being administered as a

Special Ward, and is also a

test case for remote management

of the Sybil System.

However, the region is currently

gripped by internal strife.

The top-grade armed drones

we currently have in place

have been destroyed far

more frequently as of late.

That also resembles him quite well.

There have occasionally been tales of hunters,

who in their zeal to catch their prey

end up becoming the prey themselves.

I don't know how he escaped,

or what route he took,

but let's say that Kougami

Shinya is hiding overseas,

and he's sending criminals over to Japan.

If he wanted to jeopardize

the Sybil System,

that's a halfway decent plan.

Kougami wouldn't do that.

Then what do you think of the

results of this memory montage?

Kougami Shinya and this terror group

might be connected in some way.

But,

we can't say with certainty that

it proves he's become a criminal.

We should bring out the truth

by investigating this.

We've identified the country

that you came from.

Why did you come to Japan from SEAUn?

It must have something to do with the

exportation of the Sybil System. Right?

What can you tell me about this man?

Even if you don't talk, someone will.

No one will tell you anything.

What?

You animals lost sight of true justice

when you entrusted your

fate to an oracle machine.

Our wars won't make any sense to you now.

You're asking about the possibility that

Kougami Shinya aided and abetted a crime?

That's right.

Maybe he isn't on the

battlefield personally,

but his plan is to organize and lead people

to carry out his crimes.

Do you think that he's capable of that?

Like Makishima Shougo, for example?

Yes.

I'd like to say that it isn't possible,

but I also can't deny that the answer

is colored by my personal feelings.

What Kougami is doing now wasn't

captured by any of my predictions.

But...

If you want to live life

according to your professional duties,

you need to mold your soul

into the part assigned to you by society.

Kougami walked that path once.

But,

as he worked to capture Makishima,

one who deviated from the mold,

he ended up deviating from what

was expected of him as well.

Oh... You're applying to conduct

your investigation abroad?

Yes.

You want to go to SEAUn personally?

The special ward of Shamballa Float

is operated by the Sybil System.

In other words, the Japanese Ministry of Health

and Welfare is entrusted with police powers.

Naturally, as it is enforced by one of its

departments, the Bureau of Public Safety,

your actions will be permitted.

However,

you will be stepping into a lawless land the

minute you set foot outside Shamballa Float,

and this is why they will attempt

to keep you within the Ward,

and they will not provide any aid in

the search for Kougami Shinya.

Is that all right with you?

I'm more than prepared.

There's an air mail

transport leaving tomorrow.

It's a jet plane used to

deliver sensitive equipment.

How many will be accompanying you?

Just me is enough.

If we consider what you know about us,

it's probably best that you're going alone.

I offered to come along,

but they turned me down.

I'm not surprised.

Inspectors are never

deployed abroad, after all,

let alone Enforcers.

I have a favor to ask.

What is it?

If you manage to meet up with him,

give him a punch for me.

I can't do that.

What?

If I find him, I'll arrest

him and bring him back,

so I want you to punch him yourself.

I can't tell whether you've changed or not.

You're a mystery as always.

Good to have you along, Miss

Ministry of Health and Welfare.

I'm glad to be here.

It's been a long time since we've

brought along a living person.

All order and morality simply

vanished into the chaos.

Nowadays, the vast majority of humanity is now

forced to live lives no better than animals,

driven only by the compulsions

of their desires.

Will they live in the cage

that is the Sybil System?

Or will they step outside, and submit

themselves to the Law of the Jungle?

Either way,

there's no longer any place on Earth that respects

the ideologies and dignity of their fellow humans.

You've got to respect the strength it takes

to muster the willpower

and do what's necessary to live

life according to your values

while forging your own destiny.

Especially to those who have been put

in such a bind by their predicaments

that they're willing to

go out and commit crimes.

Makishima Shougo

demonstrated that strength,

and in the process of trying to catch him,

Kougami demonstrated it as well.

Yes.

Hey, does the SEAUn government

know who you really are?

Of course not.

Do you really think we would reveal a

national secret to people overseas?

As of today, we've given SEAUn

street scanners for Cymatic Scanning

and the ability to send the

collected data back to Japan.

We have forbidden their use of Dominators

and we have left the matter of public order

to the nation's military police.

To them, the Sybil System

is a black box somewhere overseas.

I'm surprised Chairman Han was willing to

accept an enigmatic system like that.

It simply goes to show how important it

was to restore public order quickly.

It was a good opportunity.

I think it would be valuable for you

to see just how scarce and valuable

something like peace is

in the outside world.

Perhaps you will once again

become aware of Sybil's greatness.

This craft will arrive at SEAUn

International Airport in fifteen minutes.
