Ah!? Yep! This is a two-person room!
Right, they said during check-in that I’d have a roommate!

Come on in!

That being said, why weren’t you at the briefing session?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…I was late…
I did manage to hear some parts of the briefing…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Obviously this is a very strict assessment, but I didn’t make it to the briefing,
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
and they were fine with it…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
No worries! As your roommate, I’ll help you out!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Really…?
.

You’re too kind…
thank you…

Excuse me, are you still awake?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Mmmmmm…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
We didn’t really get the chance to properly introduce each other just now…
Can I call you Freya?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
...of course. Then I'll call you Michele.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
OK!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
By the way Freya, where did you come from?
.
.
.
.
.
.
I don’t have an affiliation…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Hmm…I feel like everyone I’ve met so far either is from Urbino or has no affiliation at all.
Isn’t this a troop selection for PUS? Logically speaking, there should be more PUS members here…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…
Maybe I shouldn’t be here…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Eh?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Some time ago, my mom was arrested and tried by PUS.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
She was falsely accused of wanting to abuse the Restoration Project for unethical purposes.
Of course it was a trumped-up charge…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
No way…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Strinovans will develop memory capacity overload after 100 years, this will cause a Strinovan’s “storage system“ to collapse, which leads to personality breakdown.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
This condition would come to be known as “Collapse Syndrome.”
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
RESTORATION PROJECT LAUNCH
To prevent Collapse Syndrome and to maintain order in Strinova, the government conducted regular memory resets on Strinovans, which would come to be known as the controversial “Restoration Project.”
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
And so…I’m a bit terrified of the government…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I’m sorry…that you have to share a dorm with a PUS investigator like myself…
.
.
.
.
.
.
…no worries. You’re not making me uncomfortable,
so…
.
.
That’s good…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
WAIT A SEC, THEN AREN’T YOU SAYING I’M NOT LIKE A PUS INVESTIGATOR!?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Heh heh…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Freya, are you opposed to the Restoration Project?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…I’m not entirely sure about it myself.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I’m not good at thinking about complex issues.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Indeed, resetting one’s memory is a cruel thing. I also really hate these kind of methods…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
But…Collapse Syndrome is scarier and more terrifying.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
If something like the Restoration Project is the only way to address the Collapse Syndrome issue,
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
then I’ve got no reason to oppose it…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Actually, my dad is suffering from Collapse Syndrome.
He was once a very impressive investigator.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
He developed it so suddenly, there was no time for a memory reset…
Although he’s at a treatment facility now, I don’t know if his personality is recoverable…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…if only there was a way to fully cure Collapse Syndrome…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…Michele,
if you want to talk, I’m open anytime…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Even though I can’t really help, at least…I can help ease your pains.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Freya…

PLOP
Sorry for bringing up these heavy topics when we’ve just met!
You’re very much like one of my favorite cartoon characters, unwittingly…
.
.
.

Michele…do you really like watching cartoons?

Yep! 2D animations are the best!

All personnel are to suppress, arrest, and guide them to this facility before they cause casualties.

But if people think the Restoration Project is the only solution, I’m going to let everyone know…
That the Restoration Project is a hundred times more terrifying.
