Transmission time start:

Konnichiwa, as you are well-aware by now there is a problem in the Kusari Government that seems to have risen quickly after the... collapse of the Empire and the exile of the Emperor. We have reason to believe this has a direct relation to a situation, in many similar respects, to the one that happened in Rheinland nearly twenty years ago.

[CLASSIFIED FILE 14 DELTA 9]

I am now opening this file for your browsing, and yours alone, Chokan Naoya Imai. The info therein is to go to no other office or person. I said in the previous transmission that the Kempeitai would keep a close eye on the development of that issue. You'll find the reason why in the encrypted data file.

God speed, honorable Chokan. We're going to need it in the times that come ahead. It is paramount to see the State Police remaining uncorrupted.

Konnichiwa,
Your document is safe with me. However the government have ordered your execution. From what I have seen, I now know why. Be safe.

Sayonara,
Naoyo Imai. Chokan

*A hint of a smile is seen across the man's shadowy figure*

It is not a problem, Chokan. The captain in question is not directly affiliated with my command. He was operating under a different protocol, being called out as a traitor is exactly what was meant to happen. It confirms to us that there has been quite the shake-up in the hierarchy of our new Republic. A shake-up that they're wanting to quietly sweep under the rug while there is still time to do so. How many times has Kusari called for execution of a member of the Secret Police? If you review the files, the answer is never.

Do whatever is necessary, the Itsukushima has done its part in this investigation.

Konnichiwa,
Very well. We will hunt the Kempetai Agent as requested by our 'esteemed' government. I hope this is Morally correct. For the sake of Kusari.

Sayonara,
Naoyo Imai - Chokan
