Miyoshi finished connecting the cable to the camera in front of the second-floor entrance and confirmed that the feeds were working. I stood in front of the tank weâd brought with one of the cleaners.
âOkay. Begin Cleaner Weakness Hunt!â Miyoshi proclaimed. It was almost 11 a.m. We didnât have too much longer before the JSDF arrived. âHowever, before that, I have an unfortunate announcement to make.â
âQuit jerkinâ me around. What is it?â
âSplitting Multiheaded Cleaner 7 into two has unfortunately not resulted in two copies of Multiheaded Cleaner 7.â
âThen whatâs the second one?â
âAccording to my expert Appraiserâs eye, we have Multiheaded Cleaner 7 and Multiheaded Cleaner Shadow.â
âShadow?â What the heck? Were the two different somehow? âSo which is the one we brought down?â
âThat one is Shaddy.â
Which made the one currently squirming around aboveground Multiheaded Cleaner 7.
âWhat do you think happens if we cut a âshadowâ in two?â
âA shadow shadow, maybe?â
âWelp. Only one way to find out. Miyoshi, how many tanks do you have left in Storage?â
âSix.â
Thatâd leave us one tank short when they all divided, but we could surely find a way to defeat one cleaner before then.
âOkay. Iâm going to try cutting him into four pieces.â
I quickly chopped the cleaner in the tank into four bits. I was a little messy with it, knowing that if I took too long, pieces would start regenerating before I was done.
Perhaps because of my haste, I wound up with four pretty messy, unevenly sized pieces. Still, we took each of them, put them into their own tanks, stepped back, and waited.
âAnything?â I asked Miyoshi, who was scanning the chunks with Appraisal.
âTheyâre all still âshadow,ââ she responded.
âWait, then...if we defeat enough of these...!â
âUnfortunately thatâs âshadowâ with an asterisk.â
âDamn. I guess that would have been too much to hope for, huh?â
âThe largest piece of the cleaner, or the one that retains most of their vital organs, is probably the one that keeps the original naming, while the rest become shadows.â
âHmm...â
Still, there hadnât been any cleaners labeled âshadowâ when Miyoshi was observing the crowd with Appraisal before. Of the original seven, six of them should have been shadows. If a shadowâs natural division process also produced more shadows, they should have accounted for six-sevenths of the total cleaners in the room.
âIt looks like if a shadow divides naturally, its offspring still become part of the next, numbered generation,â I said.
âSeems that way,â Miyoshi agreed. âUnless all the numbered ones just happened to be clumped up by the door earlier, although thatâs unlikely.â
Either way, weâd know for sure the next time they divided, at 1 p.m.
âDo you think they regenerate no matter where or how the piece gets cut off?â I asked. Iâd cut the cleaner just now into pretty misshapen chunks, and each one had still regenerated properly. âItâs kind of weird that theyâd know to grow back correctly no matter what pieces are left.â
âAbout that. Riken and Tokushima University did a joint study showing that planarians use substances to trigger signal gradients moving from the head to the tail, and they use that activity gradient to determine what part to form from blastomas.
