Party in the JIS
On the flight, Cecelia explains that they are going to a meeting with Mitsuhama Computer Technologies about the parts that have been stolen from a research facility recently. The parts are only going to be in the JIS for another 48 hours. Ca1yps0 is appalled to be working with MCT, but agrees to the meeting at the very least. After spending the flight enjoying the luxurious lifestyle that Cecelia Cross enjoys all the time. As they arrive, Ca1yps0 is wheeled out and brought into an MCT car and brought to a rose garden in a beautiful MCT-owned park where they meet with four of the oyabun that own shares of MCT. It is explained to Ca1yps0 that there is a young man, Yoshisune Ato, who has stolen the deck parts that Ca1yps0 is looking for, and killed his uncle besides. The oyabun want this person, a recently emerged technomancer, to have his brain scorched such that he cannot handle being on the Matrix at all.
