¤¨¤¨¤¨¨¨¤¤ he's not above petty crime, but he ¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¤¤
¨¤¤¤¤¤¨¨¤¨ knows that if he puts in a bit of work, ¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¨¨
¨¤¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤ he will find much more lucrative ¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¤¨¨
¨¤¤¨¨¨¤¤¤¨ rewards. ¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¤¤¨
¨¤¨¤¨¨¤¨¨¤ ¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¨¤
¤¤¤¤¤¨¤¤¨¤ and thus he's currently working ¤¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¤¤
¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¤¤ alongside hatsune miku for a company ¨¤¨¨¤¨¨¤¤¨
¨¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¨ that makes synthetic meal replacements. ¨¤¤¨¤¤¨¤¨¤
¤¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¤ he's got a vague outline of a plan, to ¤¤¨¤¤¨¤¤¤¤
¨¤¨¨¨¤¨¨¤¤ scatter with some product, or even ¨¨¤¤¨¤¤¨¨¨
¨¤¤¨¨¤¤¨¤¨ better, some formula? these things are ¤¨¤¨¤¤¨¤¨¨
¨¤¨¤¨¤¨¤¤¤ worth a lot to a competitor. ¤¤¤¤¤¨¤¤¤¨
¨¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¨¤
¤¤¨¨¨¨¨¨¤¨ he's been lucky; the place is ¨¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¨¤
¨¨¤¨¨¨¨¨¤¤ surprisingly unguarded. once he's got ¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¤¤
¤¨¤¤¨¨¨¨¤¨ his paws on something worthwhile, it'll ¤¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¨¨
¤¤¤¨¤¨¨¨¤¤ be easy to just waltz out. until then, ¨¤¨¨¨¤¤¨¨¨
¤¨¨¤¤¤¨¨¤¨ keep doing the work... ¤¤¤¨¨¤¨¤¨¨
¤¤¨¤¨¨¤¨¤¤ ¤¨¨¤¨¤¤¤¤¨
¤¨¤¤¤¨¤¤¤¨ come to think of it, the place is ¤¤¨¤¤¤¨¨¨¤
¨¤¤¨¨¤¤¨¨¤ almost eerily empty. there are few ¤¨¤¤¨¨¤¨¨¤
¤¤¨¤¨¤¨¤¨¤ coworkers. (in fact the company is ¤¤¤¨¤¨¤¤¨¤
¨¨¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ ai-run and only a few key roles are ¨¨¨¤¤¤¤¨¤¤
¤¨¤¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ filled by actual people. ¤¨¨¤¨¨¨¤¤¨
¤¤¤¤¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¤¤¨¤¤¨¨¤¨¤
¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¨¨¨ none of the employees know this.) ¤¨¤¤¨¤¨¤¤¤

¤¨¨¤¨¤¨¤¤¤ early processing, housed in a state of ¤¨¨¤¨¤¨¤¤¨
¤¤¨¤¤¤¤¤¨¨ the art factory close to the docks. ¨¤¨¤¤¤¤¤¨¤

¨¨¤¨¨¨¨¨¤¤ miku is in charge of the blood ¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¤¤¨
¨¨¤¤¨¨¨¨¤¨ colonies. there's large vats of the ¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¤¨¤
¤¨¤¨¤¨¨¨¤¤ original culture which is fed blood ¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¤¤
¨¤¤¤¤¤¨¨¤¨ meal, bone meal, what doesn't qualify ¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¨¨
¨¤¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤ to go in the "wild flesh" paste, and ¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¤¨¨
¨¤¤¨¨¨¤¤¤¨ some processing chemicals. all these ¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¤¤¨
¨¤¨¤¨¨¤¨¨¤ ingredients have an effect on the blood ¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¨¤
¤¤¤¤¤¨¤¤¨¤ which in turn affects miku. ¤¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¤¤
¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¤¤ ¨¤¨¨¤¨¨¤¤¨
¨¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¤¨ there is a large tank behind the ¨¤¤¨¤¤¨¤¨¤
¤¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¨¤ factory that contains a vast number of ¤¤¨¤¤¨¤¤¤¤
¨¤¨¨¨¤¨¨¤¤ auxilliary blood colonies. miku watches ¨¨¤¤¨¤¤¨¨¨
¨¤¤¨¨¤¤¨¤¨ over these as well. their purpose is ¤¨¤¨¤¤¨¤¨¨
¨¤¨¤¨¤¨¤¤¤ unclear. ¤¤¤¤¤¨¤¤¤¨
¨¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¨¨¤
¤¤¨¨¨¨¨¨¤¨ the factory is surrounded by the blood ¨¨¨¨¨¤¨¤¨¤
¨¨¤¨¨¨¨¨¤¤ meal farms. there is a constant ¨¨¨¨¨¤¤¤¤¤
¤¨¤¤¨¨¨¨¤¨ exchange of blood and blood meal. this ¤¨¨¨¨¤¨¨¨¨
¤¤¤¨¤¨¨¨¤¤ provides two of the major materials for ¨¤¨¨¨¤¤¨¨¨
¤¨¨¤¤¤¨¨¤¨ both the colonies and miku. ¤¤¤¨¨¤¨¤¨¨
