Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Confirmed the Molar Office boarding the train.

Gaze Operator Alloc
You made sure to attach the observation device on them?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Mhm.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
Bono, how’s the observation going?
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Dalloc’s helping me out, but it ain’t easy.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
I hope we can find some leads at least…
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
I know it’s a bit late to ask this, but you sure this job is a trusty one?
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
How many times should I say that we can get two hundred million Ahn right away through an untraceable route?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
It’s a deal offered by Cane Office, so we can probably trust this.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
I don’t trust like that. Pay isn’t the problem here. If we get caught trying to uncover the secrets of a Singularity, we’re done for. No insurance is gonna protect us.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
I understand that you’re scared because R Corp. has W Corp’s back. But we aren’t gonna quit here, are we?
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
We wouldn’t be here if we could…
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
The WARP train is departing in five minutes.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Seriously, I’m really not feeling this. Does it even make sense that we can track the cause and effect of everything with some weird observation device we sneaked onto ‘em?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
It’s the device Cane Office gave us. They said it’s invaluable with only a few copies of it in the City.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
And we verified its performance ourselves.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
I know this City has all kinds of bizarre technology, but I still doubt anything can be this convenient.
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Hey! The train’s heading off.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
Okay. We just need to wait 10 seconds now.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Nine… Eight… The causality-whatever-recording device is working for now.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Seven… Wait… Something’s not right…?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
They’re missing… We can’t observe them anymore…
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Gone missing inside a WARP train? It hasn’t even arrived at its destination yet…
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
I knew there was something off with this device. I told you it can’t be possible for any technology to be this convenient!
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Don’t put the blame on the device, it’s not broken. It’s still working, see?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Something must’ve happened inside the train.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Maybe there was a problem with the Singularity… Or maybe they noticed the device and rigged it?
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
It’s not so easily manipulable. And they definitely weren’t capable of doing that.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
You never know.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
It could be W Corp. sending a jamming signal to prevent its Singularity from being leaked.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
And the Cane Office hadn’t made any preliminary research before giving us this request?
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
This is driving me crazy… We’re doing this sham job for two hundred million Ahn.
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
Stop whining, will you?
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
…It could have something to do with this.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
This thing has the books of the Molar Office listed on it like it knows what we were doing.
▶️

Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
…That can’t be. Not even a minute has passed since they disappeared.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
The Library…
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Yeah, I heard of it. All the Fixers and Syndicates have been talking about it these days.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
So, what’s the plan. Are we gonna head to that bizarre place?
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
We don’t have any other way.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Even if two hundred million Ahn is on the line, I don’t wanna risk my life. Going there won’t guarantee success, either…
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
We might be able to see what happened on the train if we read their books.
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
Sigh… I just hope things don’t get screwed even further.

Library Director Angela
There really are people trying to investigate Singularities.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Duh, of course. It can bring tremendous amounts of money.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
I’m pretty sure L Corp. put a lot of effort into keeping its Singularity’s secrets, too.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
The eco-friendly energy company, founded after the Smoke War!
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
We were freed from that suffocating smoke thanks to your corp.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Didn’t I tell you already? All I did was recite the script, trapped underground.(Cut)
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Can a Singularity be stolen if its secrets are exposed?
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Nah, that’s not how it works. Those guys are probably just looking for some clues to how the Singularity functions so they can sell that info to another Wing or a big Syndicate.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
After that, the party with the secrets will use that to extort money and stuff from the Wing.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Singularities are patented, so it’s too risky to just use ‘em even if you know how to make it work. Especially since those patents are all managed by the Head.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
It’s all about money in the end.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Anyway, I’m kinda curious about what happened to that WARP train.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Let us receive our guests first.

Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
I can’t seem to make clear observations of this place, either.
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
The result can be seen, but not the process…
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
It’s just like the Distortion, the talk of the town lately. What a bother.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Greetings, dear guests.
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
How did you get the book of the Molar Office?
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
They were supposed to be in the WARP train. For only a few seconds!
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Well, how did we do it, I wonder?
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Unraveling the secrets of the Library must come with a heavy price, like how digging into the principles of Singularities is a laborious affair, no?
▶️
Bono Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Bono
That was a stupid question from us.
▶️
Dalloc Dia.png
Gaze Fixer Dalloc
I have no idea what’s going on…
▶️
Alloc Dia.png
Gaze Operator Alloc
If the Library and its books are just as mysterious as the Singularities, then hopefully they’re worth just as much.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
May you find your book in this place.

Library Director Angela
L Corp. produced clean energy, W Corp. operates fast and surefire transportation…
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
What do you think R Corp’s Singularity is?
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
I bet it’s something that pumps out efficient killing machines.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Don’t you know more about it since you used R Corp’s services?
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
As I’ve said multiple times before, such details are beyond my knowledge. I had little interest in finding out back then.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
Still, from what I observed of them… Considering the amount of their ‘Rabbits’ and the combat power of each unit, you’re probably correct.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
They were not exceptionally strong, but they did a fine job at “grazing the grass” inside the facility.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
I wonder what the principle behind it is.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Hell if I know, I’m not an executive of R Corp. or anything. Every Wing keeps its Singularity under tight wraps.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Take the Distortion and Abnormalities for instance; only the results are seen and not the process. The same goes for the other Singularities.
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
So everyone simply consumes the end results without knowing the process.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
It’s easier on the mind that way. There’s no point asking questions about technology unless they encounter problems using it.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
People just spend money and get its worth. There’s no real reason for questioning how things work.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
Wasn’t it the same with L Corp?
▶️
Angela Dia.png
Library Director Angela
…You’re right, it was the same. All we needed was the result. It didn’t matter how many were sacrificed in the process.
▶️
Roland 1 Dia.png
Servant Roland
See, the other Wings aren’t gonna be any different from that.

Trivia

^ (Cut) There are two unused voice files for a cut Angela dialogue line directly preceding the one linked here ("Didn’t I tell you already?"). A rough unofficial translation of this line is as follows:

Of course, I would have kept it secure, but I don't know because it was not my responsibility.
