Hasegawa: "Actually, it's a shame. We are able to fly to the moon but can't regrow a kidney in the lab."

Kerr: "I hope so. Because there are still Muro and Mai that need you. I would a very bad uncle if I had to tell them that their dad died too because I supported him in doing something stupid."

Mention or describe what happens to Muro and Mai while Hasegawa and Kerr are working at a later time.

Hasegawa went to the old Syndicate location. A rotting block of concrete, shattered windows and car wracks.
Nobody was there except for some strange kids playing soccer.
"Hey, yo, where are all the guys that do business here?"
"What business. There's no ... busi-i-ness. This is our yard, go away, old gramps!"
"Don't fool me, brats. It's this place. - I was here some months ago. Just tell me where I can find them."
The leader of the pack directed him to gate at the opposite side of the yard.
"There. Go there."
Hasegawa hesitated. The entrance was dark. No light shined at the end. He turning his phone light on and went in.
While stepped further and further he noticed that all side doors in the passage were blocked by planks.
For a moment there was an electric noise. Only to be followed by nothing and darkness.
"Shit, they fooled me." He stood in front of a bricked wall. This was a dead end. Hasegawa turned around to leave again.
In the distance he saw a figure. It did not move, it was like he or she was waiting.
Hasegawa's face was turning pale. Was this a trap? He moved cautiously forward, caring that he would not fall over some scrap in the dark. The phone holding over the head, with the other hand he was holding the bag tight.
Five meters to go. The figure had turned clearly visible. The other man made sign to stop. "That's far enough James Hasegawa."
Hasegawa: "What? From where do you know my name?"
Thug: "We do remember our customers."
Hasegawa's mind was racing for explanations. ''They must have installed some cameras and scanners in the passage.''
"Well, that's good, I guess. Then you know we can make business together again. I'm trustworthy and I've money."
Thug: "Possibly. - Say, what happened to the gun we sold you?"
Hasegawa: "I don't have it anymore."
Thug: "Aha. So you want new one?" He smirked.
Hasegawa: "No, I want to sell you something."
Thug: "You want to sell it back to us. - No, you are not even wearing it right now. Is it hot?"
The thug checked his datapad. He frowned. "You killed your own wife with it? You had recently contact with the cops? Do you want to pull some crazy shit here?" He draw his own gun.
Hasegawa: "No, wait, hear me out!"<!-- I can give you new tech. I'm doctor in genetics."-->
