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 Konoko 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 interpretation 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 Konoko, 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. Konoko 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).

Two days later, on Nov. 26, Konoko goes to the Regional State Building where records are kept, in search of information about her real identity.

Summary

Her move having been anticipated by Griffin, the TCTF are positioned around and throughout the building (both regular and Black Ops troopers). In addition, Konoko must fight the building's regular security guards as well as Ninjas, a newly-encountered foe. She finds a terminal to access her biographical data, but before she can download it, the elite ninja Mukade swipes the data and saves it onto a disc. Upon tracking him down, he escapes through a window and she pursues. He escapes the roof by zip-line, but as a subordinate ninja does the same, Konoko latches onto him and is carried to the next rooftop.

  • Griffin's ensured that the TCTF are surrounding the building, so why does Konoko have no trouble entering through the front door? Presumably they want her to enter so that she's trapped, but if they plan to send in troops afterward in a concerted attack, it never pans out. As it turns out, Konoko exits the building from the roof.
  • The mystery in this level is why there seem to be two separate groups carrying out an operation in this building in addition to Konoko. The TCTF we can understand, but why are the ninjas here, and who do they work for? Many players assume that Mukade works for Muro due to Konoko's words in the next chapter ("You are one of Muro's thugs, nothing more"). If this straightforward interpretation is correct, why wouldn't Muro want her to learn about her father's discoveries? Perhaps he wants the opportunity to feed her lies about what her father wanted to accomplish. Konoko will learn from the disc that her father wanted to save people from the poisoned outside world.
