Summary

Upon finding Shinatama, the SLD informs Konoko that she is too damaged to save, and reveals that Konoko's real name is Mai Hasegawa, and mentions a "Chrysalis" inside Konoko. Griffin, being told that Shinatama is nearby Konoko and that her Xiox mechanism is functional, orders the android's self-destruction. Shinatama manages to warn Konoko in time for her to escape the explosion. Konoko flees, and Griffin pronounces her a rogue agent and a Class B threat. From here on, the TCTF will be her enemies.

Added Value

"That's it then." Now we know how serious Griffin is, in case we wondered how he reacted to Konoko's "I don't care who you are" in the previous Chapter's flashback. Konoko is clearly not cut out to be part of a military organization, mindlessly following orders, and Griffin sees now that he can't change that. Her emotions are leading her to act independently, and Griffin is clearly afraid. We'll see further evidence of his fear later on.

Also, it could be said that with Shinatama's destruction, Konoko dies as well. From now on, she'll be without the identity given her by the TCTF that has turned on her so irrevocably. Without a past or future, Konoko can do nothing but search for the answers to who she is. (This makes the first of two times that a device beginning with "X" and ending with "ox" destroys Konoko/Mai's future prospects.)
