If you're smart, you'll stay out of it.
I don't care, just tell me what's up.

This is only a rumor, but Have you heard of the name "Mad Pierrot?" So the rumor's true.

I heard you got beat up by some freaky guy, Spike.
I seem to recall you being in this condition before.
You're not showing a whole lot of improvement, but not a lot I can do about it, huh? Let's face it.
You end up like this because you go looking for trouble.
It's called "bad behavior.
" But not my problem, huh? Well, since there's nothing I can do about it, I'll be off.
Take care.
The victim was a high-ranking director at ISSP.
- The seventh one to go down.
- What? I don't blame you for being surprised.
They've kept it a tight secret.
The top guys definitely don't want the world to know about this.
Why's that? Your partner's in deep trouble.
This guy's a perfect killing machine.
They say that nobody who's seen his face has lived to tell about it.
Those few that managed to get away were hunted down relentlessly.
And they always turned up dead.
They say he appears with a smile, and he leaves with a smile.
