Tenma and Bonaparta walk towards the Bergbach Hotel and Bonaparta says that he visited the Lieberts on the night of their murders to see the children and was aware of what happened later. Bonaparta admits that he created a monster and Tenma admits that he brought him back to life.

Tenma later visits an apparently comatose Johan and has a hallucination of Johan wondering if his mother chose Nina to be taken for the experiment to protect him, or had she mistaken him for his sister.
