Episode #57 – Medjed and Alibaba

Medjed group, huh? That's new...This has Keiko and Morgana worried – as Keiko text message groups with Ryuji, Ann, Yusuke, and Makoto to talk more about it to watch out for. And get this...Yusuke seems to know that the name is an Egyptian Book of the Dead type of thing he read about to tell the others; and Makoto says that Medjed is some type of large international community type of thing. And for Ann and Ryuji to say that using the Nav on their phones to find the Medjed thing could be a big clue for Witch to find her sister and the two enemies.

[Ryuji: We gotta talk about Medjed.]

[Ann: You mean those guys online are going nuts over?]

[Yusuke: Medjed....That name seems to come from one of the obscure gods from the Egyptian Book of the Dead.]

[Makoto: I saw the news too. For some reason they think we speak of false justice....]

[Yusuke: Now then, what exactly did you want to speak of regarding Medjed?]

[Ryuji: Well, why don't we go after them as our next target?]

[Yusuke: What a sudden suggestion.]

[Ryuji: I mean they're like, bad hackers or something, right?]

[Makoto: Technically, they're crackers. Those who use the internet to illegally access and alter data. Medjed is an organized group of such people recognized by the larger international community.]

[Yusuke: So they operate on a global scale?]

[Ann: That makes them even bigger than Kaneshiro!]

[Ryuji: Right?! Then it's settled. Our next target's gonna be Medjed. I wonder if the Nav'll get a hit if we put Medjed in.]

[Ann: Oh, right!]

[Keiko: Ah....You guys...Sorry to sound like the bitterness of bad news, but...It might be impossible to do.]

[Makoto: Keiko-Chan's right. It has to be a pseudonym. We don't even know how many people Medjed is.]

[Ann: Oh....]

[Ryuji: Wouldn't we get at least one member's info if we try and look into it though?]

[Makoto: Even if we did, how would we discover their location? The only confirmed presence of Medjed has been online.]

[Yusuke: This is a greater problem than simply finding their keywords. Unless you have any ideas, Ryuji?]

[Ann: Hello? Ryuji? Are you still with us?]

[Yusuke: .... It seems he had suggested this without putting much thought into it.]

[Ryuji: C'mon, we can't back down now! People are all excited about it!]

[Ann: Oh, there it is.]

[Ryuji: Our reputation's gonna plummet if we don't face this shit.]

[Yusuke: That is true. If we remain silent, people will believe we simply chose to run away from the matter.]

[Makoto: Medjed has taunted us publicly, after all...]

[Yusuke: If they are criminals, we cannot just let them be.]

[Ann: Yeah. And we don't have any other targets right now either.]

[Ryuji: Hey, Keiko. Let's talk to Mishima tomorrow. This is more of his thing.]
