Konoko sneaks into the so-called "[[TCTF Science Prison]]" to find Dr. Kerr, who tells her about the solution he developed with her father. They had named it a "[[Daodan|Daodan Chrysalis]]". When spliced with human genes, it was supposed to make a new body that would be greatly superior to the gene donor's. Two Chrysalises were started growing, one based on Hasegawa's daughter, Konoko... and one based on his son Muro. | Konoko sneaks into the so-called "[[TCTF Science Prison]]" to find Dr. Kerr, who tells her about the solution he developed with her father.

Now we find out what it's all about. If one divides the storyline into three acts, then the first act ("Old Identity") ended when Konoko realized she couldn't go back to the TCTF, and the second act ("No Identity") ends with Konoko/Mai gaining answers and a renewed sense of hope from her uncle. To fully escape her past, she must dive into the acid vat with trust in the very thing inside her that she has been fearing. When she emerges, with nothing of her former life (even her clothes and equipment), she is "reborn" as the person she needs to become. Now she is truly Mai Hasegawa. Even though she is not fully transformed by her Chrysalis, she is now able to act with the knowledge she needs to be a fully-realized person. Thus begins a third act ("New Identity"). | Now we find out what it's all about.
