The **murder of Uru Somezuki** was an event that occured in *AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES - nirvanA Initiative*.

The murder case of Uru Somezuki sparked somewhat of a sensation in the police, since the left half of his corpse, found in the middle of Tokyo National Stadium on February 10th, 2026 by Mizuki Date, was initially mistaken for Jin Furue's missing left half from his murder exactly 6 years earlier, which was the starting point of the infamous Half Body Serial Killings. That happened due to the unfortunate nature of Uru's and Jin's relationship of having organs transplanted from one to the other and possesing opposite halves of Uru's original body. This caused confusion in the forensics team, since two bodies shared DNA and were found in halves of what appeared to be one man (enforced by the fact Jin Furue never showed his true face to the public), hence it was concluded it was really Jin Furue.

This caused even more confusion, since despite the fact Jin's right half was found 6 years earlier, "Jin's" left half was dead for mere hours before being found. This caused some to believe the incident was an effect of supernatural forces, but that of course is not true, as it was eventually found out that the corpses in Studio Dvaita and on the Stadium were two separate people and their respective true halves were found eventually.

## Official Case Results

Amame was officially found out as the culprit of the murder and assistant in Tokiko Shigure's suicide and it was said she will be tried for these crimes. It is noted, however, that it was public knowledge that Uru Somezuki was the true identity of Tearer, a serial killer and terrorist. It is said that the fact that Amame essentially brought him to justice, albeit vigilante, will influence public's opinion of her and her crimes, and that will most likely strengthen her court defense and grant her a short, if any, sentence. The ultimate outcome of Amame's trial is not revealed in the game. however.

## History

On February 10th, 2026, Uru Somezuki invited Amame Doi to his hideout in the underground of Horadori Institute of Genetics to tell her about his plan and convince her to his ideals. Little did he know Amame was the daughter of Andes Komeji, a murder victim of his own from the past Half Body Serial Killings. Amame, furious and seeking revenge, picked up a nearby wrench and hit Uru on the head with it, knocking him out. She then proceeded to place him under the slicer, waited for him to wake up, then used the slicer to bifurcate his body while he was awake, killing him on the spot. There was a witness to the murder: Naixatloz's Japan Branch president and the main founder of Uru's plan, Tokiko Shigure. Catching her on the spot, Tokiko decided to blackmail Amame in order to fulfill her own plan of achieving Moksha, first by planting the left half of Uru's corpse on the Stadium (which she did using the robot her little brother Shoma created), then by hiding the other half at the Cathedral, then by assisting in Tokiko's suicide by planting right half of her corpse in her office, and leaving the other at the slicer under the Horadori Institute. Amame did both of those things and overall did her part in the plan, but she was eventually found out as the killer by ABIS members psyncing with her and the Nirvana Initiative was stopped. Whether or not did Tokiko's plan to achieve Moksha work out, that is up to the Frayer.
