- Good morning, German - said Selvaggia - Into my office! We found something while you were away that might be interesting to you too.

- Oh really? Well, I'm coming then! - I replied cheerfully, although my happiness was quickly gone when I heard what did they find.

- This logo again? - I mumbled as I looked up to the huge screen, where the Laughing Man's logo has been seen.

- Yes - she nodded - At the interrogation those few androids that were kept in one piece told us that a man's voice told them to go and kill. Once when they were asked about who was the man, or if they have seen the person...

- They showed the logo...

- Exactly.

- So he is indeed back.

- Seems like it.

This "Laughing man"... Whoever this is... Now get out an old issue about this sickness, called cyberbrain sclerosis which was basically about the Muray-vaccine being kept in secret whrn thousands of people died and the doctor, who made this has disappeared.

Our dear Togusa decided to go on his own to find out more about this as for some reason it interested him way more than before.

- This is a crazy idea to let him go by himself - I told Selvaggia.

- He will be fine - she replied calmly - But I'm keeping an eye on him... Just to be safe.

- Okay... That's good...

- Are you worried about him this much? - she smiled at me - You really did start to like him, huh?

- I can't help it - I grinned awkwardly - He's so much like my other friend, Ramallo... And we have been through so much already... It'd be bad if he gets injured, or dies...

- Because of his family too.

- Yeah.

- You have a family as well...

- Yes, but 95% of my body is cybernetic... While Togusa is 100% human flesh... Apart from his cyber brain...

- True... But I wouldn't be worried. If he needs help we'll be there for him...

- Yeah, we definitely will!

She just smiled then left to do her business and since I didn't have anything to do I went to check on the tachikomas.
