Plot Summary
Ilie and Naji try to get Mario's wallet back from Lizzy to no avail. Meanwhile, [[Kidow] and the Insect Task Force inspect gods going out of the city. Ilie and Naji agree to a game of tag to get the wallet back from the Red Rats. Kidow returns to the inn and is surprised to see that Ilie is gone. He returns to her room and gets a letter from a mysterious person.

The Red Rats lead Ilie on a wild goose chase throughout the city, using every underhanded trick to keep them from catching Lizzy. Kidow shows Jin the notice e got and reveals it even has a map of the murders around the city, meaning this letter came from the murderer.

They go outside and Kidow catches Naji running around with Ilie's clothes. At the same time, Lizzy returns to the West Gate ruins where she's finally tracked down by Ilie. Ilie catches Lizzy and they manage to befriend one another after everything and Ilie is introduced into Team Red Rats.

Meanwhile, Kidow and [[Jin] continue interrogating Naji. The child with him tells them that the Ilie will be at the West Gate watchtower. After Ilie is taken to the watchtower, Iason happens upon the murderer. Before the man kills Iason, Kidow saves the child and confronts the masked man directly.

Apparently, this man has been trying to draw out Kidow, the infamously known as the Far Eastern Exterminator. Iason escapes back to the other kids while Kidow engages the masked man in battle. The man wishes to take on another freak in a test of skill, believing that Kidow is freak for willingly hunting Cagasters.

When Kidow gets the upper hand in the fight, the masked man reveals he has Cagaster capabilities, making him ah hybrid species. He catches Kidow by surprise and injures him using extra Cagaster legs. Kidow is poisoned, dulling his senses and he demands to know who his enemy is.

Noticing Kidow is in trouble, Ilie climbs a wooden tower and screams for help. The Cagaster-Human hybrid goes to silence her but Kidow moves in time to shoot the man's mask, breaking it and revealing a part of his face. Injured and seemingly distraught, the man immediately retreats. Before Kidow passes out, he surmises that was the mans only weakness.

Kidow awakens sometime later after getting checked on by Ilie. They talk about what happened and end up both falling asleep outside, where Lizzy finds them. Elsewhere the masked man meets up with the researcher from outside the city
