In case you're wondering WTF, this is something like "the philosophy of bipolar disorder", and konoko is simply "the subject". --geyser

In other words, the writer, who speaks Japanese, is using "konoko" to mean "some person" in the general sense, not a personal name. --Iritscen

Look at konoko (held to be a proper noun). Konoko is a brain. Brain projects mind, thus konoko is a mind (or has mind). Konoko is not a normal brain, however--comparatively speaking and within certain defined limits of classification. Of course konoko is enveloped with a body; all brain material is encased with a vehicle (to operate in a given environment) designed specifically for the survival of that key biological element. (Once the Sea Squirt, for example, no longer needs to move within its environment, it consumes its brain, and lives on until it somatically dies.)

While perhaps not being so alikened to a gun, konoko could be somewhat alikened to a bomb--due to a build which has been prescribed with a certain igniting mechanism (genetical factor). Therefore konoko could possibly respond to certain external or internal (or secondary internal) events by a change in build, brought about by, or due to, the prescribed igniting mechanism's being triggered. (notice can; not every monozygotic twin is going to develop the very same eventual build as its partner in womb.)

The up-to-that-moment estimated projection of konoko as a normal brain build is quite suddenly interrupted, and that once projected and rather straightly developing course is now seen to swerve in a new direction, and with a wobbling course--overwhich konoko actually has no material degree of control. The explosion of this bomb is quite damaging to lifestyle.

Konoko has become a storm of super highs and super lows of mind. Konoko is the storm, that if left alone, will only upgrade into a greater storm, leading to total destruction. Be it good or bad (I wish not to stress any asthetic-like value judgements in the middle here), society reasons that the greater damage that the storm causes to itself (the diametrical opposite of the original purpose of konoko to begin with) is to be avoided--a thing which konoko would thinkably have agreed with having known, in advance, of the possibility of such a turn of events. For that reason, konoko works at correcting the wrong by a process much like that of fighting fire with fire--fighting chemical processes with chemical processes.

No, konoko is not to be alikened to being 'dead' in this situation, but rather is making an effort to adjust, and draw a course, as much as possible, in line that estimated and projected course which had been underway before the bomb exploded--and once it exploded, it could not be undone completely (in most all cases), but only patched over.
