Emergency Manuals are documents first introduced in Minagoroshi-hen. They detail what the Irie Institute should do in the discovery of a patient in L5, or the death of the queen carrier.
There are three known Emergency Manuals:
- Emergency Manual 34
- Emergency Manual 1
- Emergency Manual Appendix 9 FAQ
This is a full transcription of Emergency Manual #1 + its FAQ. Translation done by MangaGamer.
Emergency Manual 1[]
If the existence of a terminal patient (L5) is confirmed, the Institute Director must resolve the situation before the L5 begins engaging in antisocial behaviour. However, they must ensure that the secret remains hidden.
To that end, the Director may also request assistance from the Secrecy Preservation Unit.
As for the Secrecy Preservation Unit, they may request permission to fire from the Institute Director if necessary.
All efforts should be made to secure the L5 subject alive, but if that proves obstructive to maintaining secrecy, their life may be forfeit.
At all times, maintaining secrecy and preventing exposure will be of the highest priority. However, preserving secrecy will take priority over preventing exposure.
