:31:01
You mean Hoba Eiichi,
the programmer ?
:31:05
Hoba Eiichi, the ace of Shinohara's
software development division.
:31:10
He's the genius who
single-handedly developed HOS.
:31:14
Or rather,
he was...
:31:16
Estimated age: 30.
:31:18
Returned from MlT in '97...
:31:22
...and was immediately hired
by Shinohara Heavy lndustries.
:31:24
Address unknown. Profile unknown.
Criminal record unknown.
:31:28
Approximately 170cm. Physical character,
including major illnesses unknown...
:31:35
What lS this ?
:31:36
Not only Shinohara's personnel computer,
but school, city hall...
:31:42
...and all of his personal
records have been erased.
:31:48
He's far past the
point of suspiscion...
:31:50
Then it's a piece of cake.
:31:52
Just bust him and bring
him in for questioning.
:31:55
We can't.
:31:57
Can't ?
:31:58
Why ?
:31:59
Five days ago he was sent to
the Shinohara line at the Ark...
:32:06
...
and jumped into the sea.
:32:09
His body was never found.
:32:19
We certainly started
a bit late on this.
:32:21
Just when we started
sniffing around HOS...
:32:25
If we'd only done
something earlier...Dammit.
:32:30
Oh, well.
:32:32
Bug...program...Either way it
looks like HOS is the culprit.
:32:39
Now we have to figure out the big picture,
and how Hoba fits in.
:32:43
We'll leave the investigation
of Hoba to Matsui, and...
:32:48
Shinohara,
why are you making a face ?
:32:51
Then you knew it
was HOS all along.
:32:56
Boy, do l look like a fool,
working all night...
