Talk:Chapters: Difference between revisions

The mystery deepens when we find out that both the Syndicate and the TCTF have their fingers in this building. The TCTF we can understand; they know Konoko is coming, and by the end of the Chapter, Black Ops has arrived to take or kill Konoko. But why is the Syndicate here? Looked at on the surface, Muro doesn't want Mai to know something about her past, so he's having his master ninja snatch it away before she gets it. The encounter in the next Chapter with Mukade will introduce other possibilities. But even if this straightforward intepretation is correct, ''why'' doesn't Muro want her to learn about her father's discoveries? What does she learn that would inconvenience him? It's difficult to answer that without knowing what he has planned for Mai, but if he wants her to eventually join him, then it could simply be that he wants the opportunity to feed her lies about what her father wanted to accomplish. Mai will learn from the disc that her father wanted to save people from the poisoned outside world. Perhaps Muro wants her to believe something else (Cf. "I have accomplished everything our father dreamed of doing." from the last Chapter).
