Then, in order for Kushiro-sensei to create a place where he could conduct the research he wanted,

he resigned from his research position in the surface world.

Then he entered politics.

While working at the Ministry of Crime Prevention, he established underground connections with criminal organizations across the country

and started gathering orphaned kids.

After I also quit my surface world job, I was doing whatever I wanted as an illegal doctor when I ran into Sensei again and we teamed up.

First thing he discussed with me was about wanting to build a lab in the woods. When I suggested building it a bit closer to the train station,

Sensei started laughing hysterically, a rare sight, and said "This isn't an apartment building."

Well of course... Who's ever heard of a human experimentation facility being built so close to a train station?

Well, even though it was called "human experimentation," we weren't conducting inhumane experiments from the start... When we first set up the lab, our purpose wasn't to create assassins......

Back then, we were more of an underground charity project... Our goal was to treat diseases and the like, with particular emphasis on heart research.
