Higurashi Console Arcs (Pt 71): Neo Rescues Satako, But is Faced With a new Crisis & Mystery
[BLIND LET'S PLAY]
Satako, who is being held hostage by the Mountain Dogs at the Furude Shrine, has something of a final heart-to-heart with Takano, finding herself somewhat sympathetic to Takano's plight despite not condoning the extremity of her methods. Shortly after this, Keiichi and Rika arrive at the shrine to try and rescue Satako.
But much to everyone's horror, Takano reveals her true goal: A final act of defiance towards the people at "Tokyo" who used and discarded her and her grandfather's research, which she intends to create in the form of unleashing an airborne strain of LV.5 Hinamizawa Syndrome on the entire village's population, causing a massive riot within the village that could easily spread to other areas. Before Keiichi and Rika could do anything to stop her, Takano shoots out a signal flare that signals a helicopter to begin the operation to spread the disease, thus putting the lives of the entire village in grave danger.
Takano attempts to kill Keiichi and Rika, although a supernatural intervention from a figure that looks and acts similar to Rika saves them and allows them to flee into the nearby forest with Satako in tow. The mysterious figure speaks to Takano before vanishing. Enraged, Takano and the Mountain Dogs give chase to Rika and her friends, intent on killing them.
With Takano and the Mountain Dogs now taking direct action against them and pursuing them relentlessly, Neo and the club members begin the final battle and start working together to whittle down the Mountain Dogs' numbers one-by-one...
