Finished Part 4 - The Straylight Run - 15
Ashford soliloquized for a little while and fell asleep. He had been in a state of delirium since he was over 200 years old. Molly walked next to the bed. There was the body of a girl. It was a clone of Ashford's daughter. After she had a glance around. She ended Ashford's misery by injecting a toxin dart through the centre of his closed left eyelid.

Since the bridge was not air-tight. By launching Corto himself into space, that would be a death sentence. Case pounded on the door, telling Corto that they left his hatch open and he would die. But Corto was in a state of schizophrenia; he was in an isolated world. The escape pod was launched, and Armitage drifted endlessly around Freeside.

Case could feel the toxin re-entering his veins; he was slowly losing control in the matrix. So he decided to get to the Haniwa as a desperate attempt for a cure to his condition. When he ended up in the lounge in front of the bridge. He found out the bridge was an escape pod. And Corto was about to launch himself back into space in his madness.

Armitage contacted Case through a lozenge of white light in the matrix. For Armitage, Wintermute showed up as General Girling in the matrix. That rendered Armitage unstable, Corto was resurfacing under the mask of Armitage, breaking through. After another lapse with Molly traversing the Straylight. Armitage was in a bloody state, as shown on the tug's monitor.

It turned out there was a neural disruptor's field outside the door. Molly was hit and fell onto the floor. An old man came out, pointed the muzzle of a black pistol at her, and told her to come into the room. The old man was Ashford. He was slowly killing himself by drinking and consuming drugs. He acknowledged that he knew the intelligences were going mad.

Molly came across an old door; she drew a needle-thin pick from her roll of black chamois and unlocked it. She found a sort of key inside the cramped room. After that, she headed into a corridor that branched away in three directions. Wintermute directed Molly to go left, but she decided to have a look around. At the far end of the right passage came a voice, loud and slurred.

Case's conscience was back in the matrix. He tapped into his sim-stim. Molly was in a low, vaulted hallway lined with dozens of museum cases, archaic-looking glass-fronted boxes made of brown wood. Molly started talking about a boy she was with called Johnny. They were together, and the Yaks were after them. By ignorance of youth, they thought they could get away with it.

Wintermute brought Case into the core of Straylight. A perfectly square room. In the exact centre of the room, stood a square pedestal of frosted white glass. An ornate bust rested on it. The thing's a ceremonial terminal; Wintermute needed Molly in there with the right word at the right time. Case and Flatline will have to learn the word when they scrambled the cores.

Case rode a train back to the Garvey. He told Maelcum that he was going to jack in for eight hours. After he slotted in the Chinese virus and jacked in. The virus unfolded around him and Dixie, rendering them invisible while penetrating TA-S AI-generated ice. Abruptly, Case got thrown to his memory space again by Wintermute, which assumed the appearance of the Finn.

After Case was caught by the three Turing police, one of them, Michele, threatened him to return with them to Geneva for a trial, for the agents were in a position of legal ambiguity. Case had no choice but to follow. A quarter across an iron bridge that arched over Desiderata. Wintermute attacked the agents and killed them. Case ran like hell, panting.

Case left in the middle of his business. As he was under the nightclub constellations of the hologram sky. A face of Linda Lee stippled against the night sky. That must have been a trick of Wintermute. After Case returned to his apartment. Three Turing police in white sports clothes were waiting for him, telling him he was under arrest.
