I've destroyed all the computers.

Why is there an image here?

It's a shot from World Panorama.

It's Lynn, blessing us from heaven!

She's blessing you, not blessing me.

This contains a record

of Lynn's murder.

It should be enough

to clear your name.

Also...

...your dream is the opposite of reality.

I can come with you,

since I should pay for my sins.

The Computer Angel has died...

...and will never commit

any more crimes, right?

Actually, you are really talented.

I hope you'll do something for society.

I am not that ambitious.

But I can give my father's

World Panorama to you.

It will be very useful to you.

Actually, this was my father's wish.

Goodbye.

When she left, she made me think

of a line spoken by a killer:

"A gun is like a bird.

If you don't grab it tightly enough,

it flies away.

If you grab it too tightly,

it will die. "

This metaphor applies even more

to my relationship with Sue...

...a friendship between soldier

and bandit.

Mom, Dad...

...I have already brought Lynn

to your side.

Lynn...

...after this incident...

...I will never disobey you again.

I can now take care of myself.

I am most worried about...

...how to tell Yen what has happened.

The most painful thing

for a man is to be stood up.

I will tell him he will always be

your beloved.
