## Synopsis

Inside Ataraya General Hospital, Comps-3 members Tsubaki Iwanome, Danjō Tozawa, Ranmaru Yatsu, Kōzaburō Arase, and Kayakusa look around a graffitied barren room. Despite the graffiti, the floor and "other sections" appear to be brand new. Arase speculates that experienced persons have attempted to wipe any evidence of their activities. Tozawa mentions that the hospital has never been on the market. The group exit into and continue down the corridor, deaf to the moans of three deceased, bloody men who, at the top of a stairwell, claw at a closed door. With the memory of Kuon Higuro shooting them still relatively fresh, the men complain, "Use your ears, you stupid cops."

Higuro, from a room somewhere in the Republic of Lignisasse, scans Japanese news sources for any mention of the hospital and its beasts. That he finds none suggests that the hospital is not yet over its capacity, though he expects that day will come sooner than later. "Same as with *that* building..." he muses, "...the undertaker probably isn't getting sufficient 'food' into the hospital." He idly wonders whether his men have been keeping up with food deliveries or whether his successor has taken action.

A man and woman enter the room. Although the man thinks Higuro's story so far is "silly," he asks Higuro about the results of his experiment in Japan.

Corpse God concludes that the frenzied, insane beasts fighting the Agakuras in the basement must be *werewolves*, though they are nothing like the one werewolf he has ever met: Jangrad Diromorigh the 14th, vice captain of Framrodia Byandiraz's Imperial Glamor Unit. Although he is uncertain whether he has enough magic to quell the werewolves, he is too wary of Majiri Agakura to rely on the Agakuras alone. He is resolved to act.

The Shinoyama Security client's daughter, distraught, watches her injured friend-turned-werewolf struggle against Yumeji Agakura's restraints. She recalls how the werewolves dragged away her other friend, Kura, the one who had brought her to the hospital to give her a surprise present. She helplessly wonders what it was.

Somewhere in the hospital, sachets of drugs spill from a large hole in Kura's backpack.

Xiaoyu Lei attempts to parse the cacophony of noise he can hear throughout the building: there is the clamor of the Agakuras fighting in the basement and the armed men at the main gate and back door, and there is also the sound of footsteps running above that he assumes is Corpse God. The sound of other footsteps behind Corpse God gives him pause. Noise from the nearby ducts has him ushering Sayo away from the wall; seconds later, an overhead vent collapses under the weight of two children who fall with it, toppling a shelving unit in the process.

## Trivia

### Referbacks

* Higuro shoots the three men in Chapter 38.
* The man and woman who enter Higuro's room are the mafiosi who speak with Higuro in Chapter 90.
* The panel of Jangrad on page six is a "werewolf reveal" of the panel featuring Jangrad in Chapter 25 (Volume 3, page 205). However, the volume edition of Chapter 25 spell Jangrad's family name as "Dimorigh," not "Dimorigh," and Jangrad's famous unit is called the "Imperial Gorgeous Unit," not "Imperial Glamor Unit." The anime's subtitles translate it as "Dazzling Corps" when it is elsewhere referenced.
