|
Welcome to Neucom. |
|
We are the conglomerate that continues our activity with the goal of providing the software that creates the world of tomorrow. |
|
. |
|
The Neucom Group, with the core at the informational environment development division “Neucom Info” focused on computer-related environmental developments, along with |
|
. |
|
. |
|
the space environment development division “Neucom Space”, |
|
the life environment development division “Neucom Bio”, |
|
the communications environment development division “Neucom Sphere”, |
|
and the PR and foreign affairs division “Neucom Publishing”, |
|
is divided into five major sections.... |
Clarkson |
—first of all, |
|
for opening the door just now without a single look of disgust despite our rude visit, |
|
. |
|
everyone at Neucom, who warmly received us, has our gratitude. |
|
. |
|
The courageous decision of one pilot and all of you |
|
. |
|
really did save us. |
|
And I suppose I never will forget today’s incident. |
|
. |
|
Therefore, as of 3 this afternoon, |
|
I, UPEO representative member |
|
Gabriel W. Clarkson, |
|
along with 38 others as my subordinates and my personal aircraft’s crew, |
|
. |
|
transfer our affiliation to the Neucom Group! |
|
To come to this determination, we.... |
Announcer |
Yes... uhh, we are broadcasting an emergency press conference by representative member Clarkson, but |
|
. |
|
apparently the relay’s audio has cut off somehow. |
|
Pending the relay circuit’s connection, |
|
we will return to displaying the meeting, but |
|
until then, I believe we want to recap what information we know about this this transfer drama so far once more. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
A radio from the UPEO private aircraft the Representative was riding |
|
was received by Neucom, |
|
around 11 this morning. |
|
Said plane was carrying the Representative, who was headed to appear at the Meriton region détente conference that will be held in at Cape Rainy; |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
en route to the Cape Rainy Airport, |
|
in the airspace sector above the Mt. Lambert Range, |
|
it sustained attacks from fighters believed to belong to General Resource, |
|
. |
|
which then began hostilities with the plane's escort craft. |
|
Just after that, it seems the plane was also attacked by a different, apparently UPEO-affiliated unit.... |
|
. |
|
. |
|
And so, the plane and its escort |
|
changed their course for Neucom-controlled airspace. |
|
At 4 p.m., they made an emergency landing at Denis Airport. |
|
. |
|
For the Neucom side’s news sources, this incident |
|
is apparently being judged an assassination attempt on Representative Clarkson, who, as a moderate, has had some friendly relations with Neucom for some time, with General Resource and part of UPEO having conspired. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Also, this time, Neucom has, |
|
by in fact accepting Representative Clarkson’s transfer, will be unable to avoid bringing forth great tensions in General Resource and Neucom’s relations.... |
|
. |
|
. |
|
. |
Fii |
Oh, there you are! |
|
Well, it seems we’ve been able to take up jobs at Newcom well enough. |
|
And so, even here, we’ve been destined for the same team after all. |
|
. |
|
—so best regards! |
|
Well, for now... that’s it. |
|
Oh, right! |
|
Now I remember! I’ll give it to you straight. |
|
Uhh... well, |
|
I heard this from the Rep a little while back, but |
|
—geez, augh!! |
Cynthia |
I’m impatient. |
|
Thank you... I am most grateful. |
|
Your resolve |
|
saved the Rep and Fii’s lives. |
|
I hope to see that resolve and energy in the future as well. |
|
. |
|
Oh, right... I am Cynthia. |
|
NEU— |
|
Chief Consulting Pilot. |
|
That is, I am your boss. |
|
It’s nice to meet you. |
Fii |
Geez, sis! Put me back on... hey! |
Cynthia |
For that matter, Fii |
|
is the one and only younger sister of mine. |
|
Therefore, as an individual, too, I am terribly grateful for you. |
|
. |
|
Well then, next time will be a mission, alright? |
|
—bye! |
Fii |
Why do I get cut off...!? |
Cynthia |
Good work today. |
|
Getting used to the new environment soon, I would hope? |
|
We’re putting our hopes in you. |
|
Your change of job just now |
|
is a consequence of the way you got caught up in things, so to speak, but |
|
here, since we are an organization with fundamentally different ways of thinking from General and UPEO, |
|
. |
|
we here at Neucom |
|
want you to freely see with your own eyes the new world we are keeping our eyes on. |
|
. |
|
And then, we want you to become a member of Neucom soon. |
|
. |
|
After this, I think we will be taking action together more often. |
|
Today’s efforts may well become the power of the future. |
|
—later! |
Fii |
You not there? |
|
—it’s Fii. |
|
Today was awful, but |
|
I thought, “Good thing both of us are safe.” |
|
“But... somehow, I’m just not used to Neucom yet.” |
|
. |
|
Now, for me having received so much help to say this kind of thing is a bit of a no-no, but |
|
. |
|
of course when I wonder just what sis and I are aiming for here.... |
|
. |
|
Even so, it’s not like General would have been better, though. |
|
. |
|
“Just who desired these battles?” |
|
“It seems we’ve somehow been completely swept up unawares by some great power.” |
|
. |
|
. |
|
Sorry to always bother you with my many grumblings about this and that. |
|
—well, seeya! |
