In this chapter, we learn that the war is over, and that alita has returned to the city. The old man wonders when she will return, but she has not. He buys a gun that belongs to the "Angel of Death" , but it does not fire. The gun belonged to the owner of the gun, who was killed in the battle against the tiphares. He tells the old man that he has seen the woman at the battle, but the blast of the bike knocked him out. He asks the man why he is asking around about her, and the man tells him that she has been looking for him. The two of them can talk later
