added another point under "Big places"; that makes three points under each section, how interesting

After Chapter 8, Konoko is declared "rogue" and BGI sees that she is becoming yet another out-of-control Daodan host, so they begin to make moves against her.

1. In Chapter 10, Mukade fights Konoko and loses, failing to escape with the data. Right after he is defeated, BGI decides to make an overt move against Konoko on the Rooftops using a stealth dropship, zooming up to the roof level, but she escapes (the [[:Image:Chapter 10 .MISSION COMPLETE.png|Win screen for Rooftops]] almost ties in with this idea already, esp. if we add hints to the image that she is being looked for by agents on the rooftop).
1. In Chapter 10, instead of encountering Strikers, Tankers and Furies, Konoko meets some BGI troops for the first time, in addition to the ninjas already present throughout the level. BGI-variant Tankers are also a possibility. Changing the roster away from using Syndicate goons will lessen the story connection between the Syndicate and Mukade and his ninjas. We will save the reveal of some BGI classes for the BGI level, but this is Konoko's first glimpse of troops that don't fall into the Syndicate/TCTF dichotomy.
 
2. At the end of Chapter 10, Mukade fights Konoko and loses, failing to escape with the data. Immediately after he is defeated, BGI decides to make an overt move against Konoko on the Rooftops using a stealth dropship, zooming up to the roof level and dropping off heavily-armed troops, but she escapes them. (The [[:Image:Chapter 10 .MISSION COMPLETE.png|Win screen for Rooftops]] almost ties in with this idea already, esp. if we add hints to the image that she is being looked for by agents on the rooftop.)


As we know, Konoko next goes to her father's old lab. (Presumably she uses some info on the disc to track it down.) This is the lab used by her dad under the Syndicate's watch, and since Kerr worked here, it's probably known of by the TCTF too. Thus, it's probably been stripped of anything useful by just about every interested group on the planet by now (a diary entry can make this clear). This gives us a helpful idea of what the rest of the Lab would look like beyond the one tiny room we get to see, so we can add on some (real) architecture in order to make the next point possible.

2. In Chapter 11, when Konoko wakes up from her dream, BGI is infiltrating the lab silently, looking for her. She stealthily escapes the building and heads for her bike, but discovers that BGI troops are guarding it, so she hijacks their stealth dropship. Although she wants to know who is hunting her, and to go confront them, she decides that the priority is to find her uncle so he can fill in the missing puzzle pieces of her life, and then settle the score with this third party, who by now she suspects to be BGI.

The stage has now been set for the BGI level, but first Konoko will be able to use the aircraft to infiltrate TCTF Science Prison and speak with her uncle. Before moving on to the BGI level, let's look at ways to touch up the existing levels to provide a better narrative.
