Kirito put down the blood stained knife in his hand, finally seeming to remember something.
As the decryption progressed, he used the computer to control and open the door to a certain room.
Then he made a very anxious sound.
"Kazuma! Don't be afraid! I'm here to save you!"
In Kirito's imagination, Kazuma should be surrounded by several big men, just like him, and probably now…
Then, the moment the door was pushed open.
Kirito! Was enraged!
The scene before him was nothing like him being surrounded by a hundred birds. Instead, it was, goddammit! All women.
Kirito felt a deep sense of betrayal at that moment.
Why was he being chased by a bunch of terrifying black guys, while Kazuma was surrounded by a group of women?!
However, even though it was a group of women, it seemed Kazuma had maintained his purity.
Because when Kirito opened the door, he saw that goddammit, Kazuma had already used his astonishing wisdom to protect himself very well.
That was…
He had locked himself in the cage that originally held those female test subjects!
That's right! After a struggle, feeling that if he didn't resist, he would be beaten to his knees and dragged back as a slave by these wild women, Kazuma chose to fight for a glimmer of hope with his small sickle.
He directly crawled into the cage that originally held those people and then locked the cage from the inside.
Even when Kirito opened the door, he saw this scoundrel unbuckle his pants, then frantically spin his little bird like a windmill, making the female test subjects outside the cage stare intently but unable to reach him, only able to frantically stretch out their hands, desperate and drooling.
Kazuma, who was enjoying himself, saw the door open, his expression changed, and he quickly pulled up his belt and reached out.
"Kirito, you're finally here! Quick, save me!"
"Click!"
"You're too sadistic, aren't you?! And you can commit suicide to get out, right?!"
Kirito was so exasperated by this guy that he laughed. Kazuma hadn't typed anything in the chat room, and he could clearly commit suicide to get out of the cage.
Which meant this guy must have seen in the chat room that they had already taken control of the situation, and then he started messing around.
"Hey! Don't! You know I know what's important. I just learned from that woman that these people are all test subjects, so I didn't want to hurt them."
Kirito locked the door from the outside.
Because if he didn't close it, those madwomen shouting, "Men! I want men!" would rush over.
Kirito then sat back down at the computer and began clearing data and searching for other related projects. The data was successfully cleared, but the project search failed due to insufficient permissions, even when he had his daughter directly hijack a large amount of computing power from the Tokyo network.
At the same time, he replied in the chat room to Kazuma, who had sent several emoticons.
[Kirigaya Kazuto: I've looked at the data. This change is irreversible. They will lose their language ability in a few days, and the injected subjects will exhibit endless craving and pain.]
"Bang! Bang!"
Gunshots began to sound next door.
Then, after a while, Kazuma, covered in blood, came out dragging the Nurse Chief's corpse. Kazuma glanced, then threw her next to the half-dead person in charge of the research institute.
"Is there anything I can help with?"
"I'm destroying data here. You go upstairs and search for this drug. After checking the surveillance on the way out, that Nurse Chief left this drug on the third and twelfth floors. I just retrieved the hospital's surrounding surveillance and saw that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police cars have started deploying defenses. We also need to prepare to leave."
Kirito took out a small bottle and shook it at Kazuma. Currently, there were only a few bottles of the semi-finished product produced. Some were here in the basement, and others were hidden by the Nurse Chief herself.
"Okay."
Kazuma nodded.
Kirito sighed. If there weren't ordinary patients in this hospital ward, he would have directly burned the place down.
He had just confirmed that the leaders who left were just a facade; the real researchers here were all living in the hospital.
He reported their locations to Kazuma again, and then began dealing with the physical files here and the last two people.
This night was destined to be busy. Inspector Megure painstakingly mobilized all combat police officers, surrounding the Paradise Affiliated Hospital so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through.
Negotiators were dispatched, using megaphones to shout at the inside for three hours, demanding that the criminals inside surrender immediately.
Then, there was no response for a long time. When all the staff and patients inside came out, they discovered that the criminals had already fled, and even the surveillance footage at the hospital entrance had been deleted, so it was impossible to know who was responsible.
In the end, they only caught a nurse who was holding a special patient hostage and demanded that he sexually assault a mistress kept by a chaebol president, and some nurses who had arbitrarily modified hospital equipment, directly sending them to jail.c
Originally, Kirito was prepared to slowly decrypt the files on this computer, but he was clearly overthinking things.
Files of the 'confidential folder' level were quickly decrypted. It seemed that because certain data needed to be recorded daily, a spreadsheet immediately opened, with some information filled in for the current day.
Kirito scanned up and down, mostly logs recording changes in test subjects. Kirito flipped forward, but the recorded dates were too far back, so he simply went back and clicked on the file titled "Project Introduction PPT."
It seemed that even for such secret and dark experiments, a document explanation was still required for investors or superior leaders.
However, Kirito looked at it and felt that even this PPT introduction, which had already removed many academic terms and professional vocabulary, would probably not be understood by those bureaucrats. After all, this was the current political situation in Japan, where even the Minister of Cyber Security couldn't open a browser.
Kirito flipped a few pages and found several key pieces of information. First, the person in charge of this project… well, it was the woman Keli had captured, who was still screaming over there.
There were also photos of several other people next to her. Kirito took out his phone and photographed their appearances, names, and main achievements to prevent any loss of information.
Then came the budget for this experiment. Kirito saw the number in the dedicated security budget column: 130 million yen.
Kirito looked at the iron door over there with some confusion. Although an electronically controlled retractable iron door had been added, this was simply…
Then Kirito looked at the rendering of the experimental laboratory.
Upon entering, the clean, high-end laboratory showed several foreign scientists photoshopped in, filled with professional instruments and experimental machines, as well as some high-end instruments that, although he didn't understand, looked very sophisticated. The next slide showed several men in cheap suits photoshopped outside a transparent one-way glass window, observing with surprised expressions. Inside were rows of desks and various computer-connected equipment.
Kirito looked around in confusion at this basement, which looked like a cave, and then peered into the room where those men had come out. There was no one-way glass inside, just large iron cages.
Then Kirito looked again at the astronomical figures for renovation and equipment expenses in the project budget.
Now he understood!
So, the ridiculous security level here, despite being a secret biochemical research facility, was due to corruption, wasn't it?
The leaders took the lion's share of the funds, and these researchers took smaller cuts and went home to build villas. As for the research and the laboratory? As long as they worked, that was fine, right?
It was like those mysterious screws in US military spending, priced at thousands of dollars each, yet no better in material or craftsmanship than a 4-dollar screw.
This was much faster money than painstakingly producing results and only getting a bonus in the end, wasn't it?
Kirito was still amused when he saw this, but when he started flipping further and reached the experimental details, it became somewhat difficult to accept.
They first conducted animal experiments, but the animals all exhibited violent and diseased phenomena, directly losing reproductive capacity and becoming extremely ferocious.
Upon discovering such strong side effects, these people's first reaction was…
To conduct human experiments. This part was directly seen from the experimental logs and data, not the PPT.
They seemed to have obtained some kind of approval, but that approval would not be explicitly stated or agreed upon.
And at the experimental log section, the project leader changed to a blonde woman with a beauty mark on her face. If Kazuma saw her now, he would definitely recognize her as the Nurse Chief. Kirito recognized the other changed leaders next to her; they were several hospital executives he had seen before.
"It seems this person is purely for taking the blame. If something goes wrong, they will be treated as the main experimental personnel, and it will be their self-directed and self-performed act to profit from human experiments."
Kirito provided his analysis and typed it into the chat room.
Then he continued to read. Three months ago, they began attempting to inject the drug directly into humans.
It was a dying middle-aged woman with a terminal illness, whose son was attending university in Kyoto.
According to the data, the child's father was a Spanish immigrant whom the woman met 20 years ago when he came to Japan. After a fleeting romance and pregnancy, he disappeared, and the woman was disowned by her parents. So, the woman raised the child alone, and once even dabbled in the adult video industry to make ends meet. However, as she got older and no one could accept her with a child, she could only work odd jobs. Eventually, she got sick due to substandard air quality at a chemical factory.
The chemical factory paid a large sum as hush money, but she couldn't bear to use it to fill the bottomless pit of her lung disease. She asked the hospital not to notify her son and refused treatment.
So, naturally, she became the hospital's target. During what was pretended to be a routine intravenous anti-inflammatory infusion, she was injected with an anesthetic and dragged to the basement.
The first experiment was not pleasant, but the reactions of humans and animals after injection were completely different.
Kirito silently watched the video, which was a recording of the first experimental subject. He watched the ordinary middle-aged woman, who at first constantly begged for mercy, eventually become like a wild person in heat as the drug was injected, completely losing her sanity. She was subjected to various tests by the medical staff, and even her dead body was not spared. The hospital directly forged a body donation agreement, and made the woman's son take the money and leave.
Subsequently, there were continuous adjustments to the reagents until the researchers discovered that the injected person's sexual fluid could also be used as medicine. They began extracting sexual fluid from male test subjects.
And to expand the pool of test subjects and make a profit, they also sold this drug to the yakuza to settle disputes.
For example, if they accidentally assaulted a student, they would give the student a diluted dose of the drug, causing the student to develop extreme obedience and dependency.
Or, to put it more clearly, when they felt that the courtesans they had weren't attractive enough to draw customers, they could directly use this method to force innocent women into prostitution.
They didn't even have to pay the women who were forced into prostitution after doing this; they just needed to give them food, and they would have no choice but to entertain clients. The ultimate goal of this drug was to eliminate the undesirable side effects that caused loss of sanity and physical changes.
To create a completely legal drug to sell for money, or to use for various secret activities, directly controlling certain political enemies who couldn't be killed.
Finally, it mentioned their raw material, a liquid code-named Bk-200, which came from the Ten Teng Group, a branch of the Sukiyoshi-kai, a yakuza organization headquartered in Akabane.
This was also why they chose to cooperate with the yakuza.
However, they didn't know how the yakuza obtained it.
What? Who did Akabane offend? Why is it related to that place again?!
However, the more Kirito read, the more he felt suffocated. Many of the people who died by his sword were ordinary young men just weeks ago. They didn't provoke anyone, they didn't bother anyone, they had nowhere to go in this cold society, and they chose to give up when they couldn't afford medical treatment, which is why these scumbags targeted them.
In the end, even the last thing they had left, their bodies, were targeted.
Kirito drew his two swords and walked directly to the back. He didn't want to hear the woman's screams, which were a mixture of pain and pleasure, anymore.
"I'm sorry, we're late. I will free you now."

Chapter 103: Dick Rotation!
Kirito put down the blood-stained knife in his hand, finally seeming to remember something.
As the decryption progressed, he used the computer to control and open the door to a certain room.
Then he made a very anxious sound.
"Kazuma! Don't be afraid! I'm here to save you!"

This night was destined to be busy. Inspector Megure painstakingly mobilized all combat police officers, surrounding the Paradise Affiliated Hospital so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through.
Negotiators were dispatched, using megaphones to shout at the inside for three hours, demanding that the criminals inside surrender immediately.
Then, there was no response for a long time. When all the staff and patients inside came out, they discovered that the criminals had already fled, and even the surveillance footage at the hospital entrance had been deleted, so it was impossible to know who was responsible.
In the end, they only caught a nurse who was holding a special patient hostage and demanded that he sexually assault a mistress kept by a chaebol president, and some nurses who had arbitrarily modified hospital equipment, directly sending them to jail.
As a result, when the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department prepared to conduct further investigations, they were stopped by Public Security.
Japanese Public Security and the police are two different concepts; Public Security deals with national-level public opinion, ideology, potential threats, prevention of terrorist attacks, and intelligence gathering, much like a scaled-down secret service.
Public Security stated that they were forbidden from entering above the 12th floor and the basement.
The furious Inspector Megure had no choice but to report the incident after concluding that it was related to a supernatural case, and his superiors decided to drop it, leaving everything to Public Security.
However, before they could rest, they received news that a mansion in Shinagawa Rokubonmoku had been attacked.
So they hurried to Rokubonmoku again, exhausted.
By the time the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department personnel arrived at the scene of the attack, the three individuals who had single-handedly caused Tokyo's crime rate to skyrocket had already returned to their lair from the sewers.
"Phew! I'm exhausted. This should be enough, right? By the way, will the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department see us on the road surveillance footage?"
Kazuma lay on the sofa, somewhat carefree.
"It's fine. When we were getting weapons earlier, I heard that Kappa say that after two consecutive incidents, they thought we were a special unit only responsible for politicians, then the politicians thought we were a special unit only responsible for civil servants, the imperial family thought we were special individuals created by the government, plus our information had obvious signs of internal tampering, the government thought we were used by the zaibatsu to settle things, and the zaibatsu thought Americans were coming to mess with them.
Under mutual suspicion, they all just established their own direct special forces and simultaneously accused others of disregarding internal unity by supporting special forces, so no one investigated us."
Keli explained, having heard some of the Japanese upper echelons' views on them from the village chief.
"So, we're being treated as their pawns?"
Kazuma pouted, somewhat displeased.
"To be precise, they all think we are their enemies' pawns."
Kirito, however, was still a little downcast.
"What's wrong? Got depression?"
Kazuma nudged Kirito's waist with his elbow.
"Sigh… It's nothing. I was thinking if we should have kept some of that medicine. That way, when we're hungry, we could use it to feed some animals, and then we kill those animals. We shouldn't have destroyed all the medicine in a moment of impulse."
"Well, it's such a small matter, don't frown. Wouldn't it be bad if we did that too?"
"That's true, but we'd also need to ensure there's absolutely no leakage. It's still risky."
The two comforted Kirito.
After speaking, Kazuma excused himself to go to the bathroom, and once there, he guiltily pulled out two bottles of medicine he had taken from that hospital. He had originally thought that since Kirito said so, he should destroy them, but then he reconsidered. He thought about asking everyone to install a safe in their rooms later and lock these things in the cabinet.
