Dammit! Dammit!
My arm...
My arm!
Idiot! Don't touch it!
You'll just make the wounds worse.
But I can't exactly wrap bandages around it like this...
Get a hold of yourself! I'll take you to a doctor soon enough.
You tank-faced son of a bitch!
Men from State Section 1 don't get to die in their beds.
Yeah, I'd prepared myself for that the moment I joined.
They said we'd be stabbed or get shot at, that our deaths wouldn't be pretty...
Dammit!
But...
But, man...
Nobody ever told me I'd be burned to death!
Cold.
Cold...
But...
When I burn something... Just a little...
Just a little...
My heart warms up.
The Flame Still Burns
Refugees in the underground waterways?
Yeah.
"If I go to the capital, I'll find work."
"If I go to the capital, I'll make it somehow."
A lot of people affected by the war come here believing those things...
However, the reality doesn't live up to the dream.
This is the reality. There are no jobs or houses.
With nowhere to go, they had no choice but to go down into the waterways.
There sure are a lot of people.
It's like a whole city.
You might be right about that.
Mion, the private waterworks company,
has laid down waterways that spread out under almost the entire city.
It might not be an exaggeration to say
there are almost as many refugees living down here as there are above ground.
Are you serious?
Please leave me alone!
No matter how many times you come here, I can't pay money that I don't have!
Hmph. Damn squatters...
Listen up, sis.
These waterways are the rightful property of us at the bureau of waterworks. Got that?!
And you just walk in here and live without permission?
You have to at least pay for "protection."
B-But...
If you don't have the money...
you can pay it off with your body, sis.
I thought you were just a kid,
but it looks like you got some parts that have grown up real nice.
Let's see what we got...
Don't be scared.
Huh? A soldier?
Oh no, you go first.
You were going to touch her first, anyway. Right?
Now you've got me all embarrassed...
Hey, wait a minute!
Who the hell are you?!
Say, you're pretty cute.
What's your name? Have you been here long?
Buddy, you think you can go against us and get away with it?
Attention!
We are Army Intelligence, State Section 3, the Pumpkin Scissors platoon!
We shall now guide you out of these underground waterways!
Pumpkin?
I thought we already had a deal with the military!
Please wait. If you force us out of here, we'll have nowhere else to go!
Do not worry. No one said this is an eviction.
A state-run farm has been established!
We would like to have you make a living there.
So... we'll be able to work?
I guess even the higher-ups can be nice.
As I said, we shall guide you out of here.
Hey, Metz, we're gonna let them get away with this?
Yeah, let them do what they want.
But if the higher-ups find out about this...
Relax. Those refugees ain't leaving the waterways.
See? Look at that. Speak of the devil...
Why, Dad? You can have a job!
We can live under the sun again!
Why? Why don't you want to leave this place?
Commander.
What is it?
Well, that bunch over there's being stubborn and saying "We won't leave."
What? What in the world?
It'll be all right. Let's go, okay?
What's gotten into them?
Nobody called for any military down here.
Now get the hell off our property, soldiers.
You military had your time, but it's finished.
Leave quietly and go play soldier somewhere else where no one can...
Wh-What's with this dog?
Hey! Down, Mercury. Wh-What's with this dog?
Hey! Down, Mercury.
Stop it!
Let go!
Wh-What a waste...
D-Dad?
Something tells me this isn't cold medicine.
I want an explanation for this.
HUNKS!
You'd better have an explanation for this!
What's all the yelling about?
Don't act dumb!
Those kids of yours went screwing with the waterworks company, didn't they?!
Waterworks? We were getting some war refugees out of there.
There are plenty of other refugee colonies you could've picked.
My section was already conducting a secret investigation of that waterway.
Oh?
Then...
Section 1 already knew about this, didn't you?
I don't remember Himmel investigations being Section 3's job.
Actually, it's an important part of the war relief...
But this stuff gets in the way of recovery.
My section is going to crush it.
What happened to the waterworks man you brought in?
He's being interrogated.
Lieutenant, I don't think you should be so violent...
Hey, you guys! This is like frickin' torture!
Don't you have any shame as soldiers? Huh?!
People like you who profit from exploiting the weaknesses of those who have
lost hope for the future and a reason to live have no right to speak of the military!
I will tell you one thing.
The Mion Waterworks company is an important military client
that donates a lot of money to us.
Hello, hello.
It seems one of our personnel has caused you problems.
I'm the president of the waterworks, Albert Mion.
Why was he released?
The president of the company came here and posted bail himself.
Legally, there's no problem.
He was released.
But that...
That money...
Was made off the blood of the refugees!
Excuse me.
Are you going to march right into the waterworks company?
We in Section 3 have no authority to investigate or make arrests for civic crime.
Except, that is, when we catch them in the act.
State Section 3, the Pumpkin Scissors platoon,
will now resume its mission of guiding the refugees
in the waterways beneath the capital to the state-run farm!
H-Hey, can't you cut me a little bit of a deal?
Come on, I've got plenty of other customers, you know.
What?
It's you!
Uh, in regards to the establishment of the state-run farm,
we shall now guide the refugees to...
Huh? What's going on there?
Um, Warrant Officer, this is bad.
That is definitely Himmel.
Hey!
Caught in the act!
Seize the suspect and the evidence immediately!
Yahoo!
You guys don't use your heads, do you?
This is pointless.
I'll just get released right away like last time.
Then we'll bring you in as many times as it takes.
You imbeciles!
We're losing customers! Unnecessary expenditures are increasing!
Do you guys have no brains at all?!
Uh, we are really grateful to you, sir.
Even if we're caught, you always get us released on the same day.
That's because you've all got loose lips, and if you mention my name
it will give those military guys the authority to arrest me!
Never! We'd never betray you like that!
You were the only one who helped us out when we were just street punks!
Is that so? In that case, could I ask you to do one more thing for me?
Y-Yeah! Please leave it to us. We'll do anything! Anything!
Right?
Yeah...
Well then, use THESE to deal with those annoying military flies buzzing around.
Whoa! These aren't surplus!
They're brand new!
There's a ton of ammo, too!
But where did the boss get guns like these?
I'm counting on you.
Y-Yes, sir.
All right, let's go!
Yeah!
Well, I won't be able to use them anymore.
In that case...
Hey, you there?
Hans.
Hans!
Are you listening to me? Hey!
I have a job for you! Got it?!
It's so cold...
Commander, it looks like they aren't anywhere around today.
Maybe they finally decided to give in.
It'd be great for us if they did.
They're sniping us?!
Get down!
Did we get 'em? Everyone out!
Fire!
Turn!
Dammit! They're gone!
They're here, too?
Idiot, don't stand up!
What?
Kill Kill.
Kill
Kill.
Kill Kill!
KILL!
How does it look back there?
It looks like they've scattered for now.
You saved us.
That big body of yours comes in handy sometimes.
You know?
H-Hey, Big Guy.
Were you hit somewhere?
N-No.
I'm fine.
Dammit. I'm in Section 3 now!
Commander, did you notice?
The rifles they were carrying... They didn't look like old models.
Indeed.
In fact, it was just like...
Just like... what?
Nothing. Never mind.
Right now, let's focus on getting out of here.
Stop the car!
Uh, yes, ma'am!
Commander? What's wrong? Commander!
What is this feeling? I've felt it somewhere before...
Are you okay, Commander?
Yeah...
Oh. It was him.
I felt the same thing when I first met him.
Commander!
In front of us.
Reinforcements?
He's not moving. What should we do?
Drive forward. We don't know the situation.
Is he an enemy?
What's with that thick suit he's wearing?
That weapon is a flame thrower.
Flame...
Fire?
But those were supposed to have been scrapped a long time ago.
Scrapped why?
People realized something...
That it would become a weapon that lets people kill in a way that's just wrong.
That's why all inhumane methods of killing were banned in the empire...
Or so I thought.
He's serious.
It's cold...
Wh-What should we do? He's coming!
It's cold, so...
I will...
burn you.
