Hidden Dangers

Hidden Danger
Safu is it?
Yes.
You're returning from your studies in No. 5
because of your grandmother's passing.
Is that correct?
Yes.
Welcome home.
Are you a Picasso fan?
Yes.
Unfortunately you won't be allowed
to bring that into No. 6.
Has it been a while since you were in No. 6?
Huh?
Is this a homecoming for you?
Yes I suppose
Um why?
Ah. Well outsiders rarely visit.
It was simple to determine.
You had no qualms about wearing this on your wrist
but people from the outside always find it strange.
That's how I knew you were from No. 6.
How could you tell I hadn't been here in a while?
How to put it
You have an air about you.
The wind I suppose.
The wind?
Yes it feels like a wind follows you.
Wow!
Grandmother
She's cold
Why is she so cold?
Your grandmother's death was a happy one.
There was no pain or suffering.
She died at peace.
A happy death?
My grandmother Was she happy?
Huh?
I can't think of anything to do
tomorrow or the day after that.
Was she truly happy?
Of course.
This is the Twilight House
a place for people to spend
their final days in tranquility.
She had to have been happy.
Here.
Her personal effects.
This is everything?
Yes.
Safu it doesn't matter if we're far apart.
We'll be connected in our hearts by this thread.
Grandmother would never have
discarded her knitting needle.
Grandmother
Were you truly happy in the Twilight House?
I can't smell anything.
Nothing
It doesn't smell like Grandmother.
Sion
what's wrong with this city?
Connection cannot be established?
What?
What happened?
Deregistration?
A felon?
Sion would never murder anyone!
Here you are.
I love the smell of fresh-baked bread.
Yes it's the smell of someone
waiting for you at home.
Now you should get home.
Uh-huh!
Safu?
Oh my!
You've become so beautiful
I'm amazed.
But I was under the impression
that you were studying in a different city
My grandmother died so I returned.
Your grandmother?
Ah
She was your only family.
It's a lie isn't it?
It's all a lie isn't it?
We're going to get rain.
He isn't locked in the correctional facility is he?
He must have escaped.
That's right. Isn't it Mrs. K?
What makes you think that?
You're too composed.
I guessed it the moment I saw you.
You're not despairing.
You don't look like a mother who's lost her son.
Mrs. K.
Sion is outside No. 6 isn't he?
I knew it.
Where is Sion?
The West District
That's all I know.
The West District.
I see
Wait!
What will you do with that information?
I'm going to find him.
What?
Safu! Listen to yourself!
Don't you realize how dangerous
the West District is?
I don't.
I've heard that it's a terrifying place.
But I'm still going!
If you do you'll never be able to—
I won't regret never being able to return if that's what happens!
I want to see him
I want to see Sion.
But Safu
I love him!
I love him I really do.
He's the only person I've ever loved.
Thank you Safu.
You see
I thought I'd be bearing this alone.
But I forgot about you
That there was someone else
who cared about Sion.
Thank you.
But I'm sure that he
wouldn't want you endangering yourself
just to see him.
What he wants doesn't matter.
Huh?
I'm selfish.
I can't stand waiting around.
I'm dying to see him
So I'm going to.
And that's that.
I'm not a mother so I can't be strong like you.
If
If he never came back
Mrs. K
I have one more question.
Who is he with?
Huh?
Some Rat it seems.
Rat?
Yes
That's all I know.
Thank you very much!
I'm glad I got to see you.
Sion!
Hold on!
The Bureau of Public Security?
Miss Safu I believe?
Miss Safu I believe?
Stop!
Let me go!
Someone!
I haven't done anything!
Sion!
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
I was just thinking of someone.
Who?
A person who once wore that sweater.
Must be a girl.
Please
Rat wore that sweater at one point.
You can't tell if it was a boy or a girl.
It was a girl!
It was definitely a girl!
Welcome back.
How bad is the rain?
It's just drizzling.
Anyway Dogkeeper wants to see you.
Dogkeeper?
It's fortunate the rain stopped.
Hurry it up.
I can't stand the smell
Shut up and hold him!
He's my mother's brother.
Would that make him your uncle?
I guess.
It's one less companion that I can
talk to about my mother.
But it stinks!
Once you're dead you stink
whether you're a dog or a human!
Struggle all you want but you'll still die in the end!
That's common sense!
But it was a worthwhile life.
Yes it was.
Give us a hand Rat!
You can have the honor of carrying the dead dog!
Idiocy.
I'll pass on both.
Forget about him.
I don't want his help.
He'd defile the grave.
But we should have him sing a eulogy.
If you want me to send his soul beyond it'll cost you
Three silvers.
Get your ass down here and say that you sack of shit!
I'll crush your windpipe!
What a joke.
Want me to bury you next to your uncle?
You can't bury me!
I'm gonna survive!
Wait you filthy rat!
What's wrong with Dogkeeper?
Why is he so angry?
Rikiga!
Get Dogkeeper to give you some money.
I have to go and gather the stuff we'll need.
It isn't easy to dig in frozen soil.
Yeah but it should have been relatively soft.
We did just have rain.
Spring is drawing near.
Spring
You're thinking about the parasite bees aren't you?
They may become active before the spring.
Once they begin
What will happen to No. 6?
It should make quite a show.
Will the greatest of actors
perform the greatest of tragedies or
the greatest of comedies?
What do you think?
My mother's in the city
I can't afford to sit in the audience.
You intend to return?
At least once before spring.
I'll see if I can create a serum.
Since I'm the only survivor who can
provide a blood sample
You genius types are so noble.
What can you possibly do
without a single beaker or syringe?
I already asked Rikiga for help.
You won't put up a fight?
There's no point.
It's a little early to give up.
Don't you want to live?
Of course I do.
I could never bring myself to kill you
Is that what you think?
It is.
Don't get too cocky.
That isn't why I saved your life.
Don't stick your nose in where it's not wanted.
Sit tight until the time comes.
Until the time comes?
When will that be?
When I've finished destroying No. 6.
This is your blood.
Don't waste it on some stupid serum.
Find a better use for it.
Why do you hate the city so much?
What ties you to No. 6?
Why do you despise it so?
Does it have something to do
with the scars on your back?!
You still don't get it?
That city sucks its surroundings dry
so its residents can live in luxury—
You're saying that it's a parasite city.
Yes. So you do understand.
Humans are meant to fight parasites.
It's common sense.
I want to know your personal reasons!
Is it revenge?
Last time you refused to answer.
But I want you to tell me
I want to know Rat!
No. 6 or me. Make your choice.
You love No. 6.
I abhor it.
That's why
we're doomed to become enemies.
Why must everything be so
black and white with you?
Love or hate
Friend or foe
Inside the wall or outside it.
That's it
We just have to get rid of the wall.
Huh?
We just have to destroy the wall!
Then No. 6 as we know it will no longer exist.
There won't be an inside or outside!
You don't need to destroy No. 6.
You just have to wipe it off the map!
There's a third option!
Is it really that funny?
Yeah it is
The best joke I've ever heard!
So you're clueless and delusional?
Third option my ass.
That's just idealistic nonsense.
Rat I'm serious!
I refuse.
You're looking for the easy way out.
A way that keeps you from getting hurt.
You're wrong
On the off-chance that you did destroy the wall
the result wouldn't be heaven.
It'd be hell on Earth.
Chaos disorder conflict plunder
It's impossible.
We're not dealing with paint
You can't mix them together.
One must destroy the other.
That's our fate.
Love or hate
Friend or foe
Inside the wall or outside it
And you or me.
We can never be united.
We can't be sure until we've tried!
I'm certain.
At the very least
I can say that I won't be your enemy.
Whatever happens
even if we're killed
I'll be by your side.
That's bullshit.
That's my resolve.
A letter?
"Safu was taken by the Bureau of Public Security."
"Help her!"
"— Karan."
That girl?
Do I really want to tell Sion about this?
He'll run straight to No. 6.
Even if it costs him his own life
As they live every person is
bound to run into trouble.
Heh you're actually worried about me?
Never.
You would never sacrifice
your own life for someone else.
I'm sick of your patronizing.
Leave me alone.
I'll do this without you to hold me back.
Fine.
Our paths will never cross again.
If you don't want to lose someone
you should protect them to very end!
I'm glad to have known you.
True Lies — Empty Truth
You're a liar.
