Attempting to gather more information, Kusanagi brain dives into the Puppeteer. However, its consciousness was collapsed, and was presumed destroyed, but Kusanagi believes that it is still alive and that she can sense its presence.2 One year later, after accidentally killing a suspect in a covert operation, Kusanagi instigates hostage situation in order for Section 9 to avoid blame for her previous actions.3 She escapes with the help of Batou to find a new body for her, however she discovers the Puppeteer is still alive in her cyber brain. In pursuit of its evolution, the Puppeteer proposes to merge with Kusanagi. Kusanagi, although initially skeptical, agrees to allow the Puppeteer to merge with her own consciousness. After merging with the Puppeteer, Kusanagi awakes in one of Batou’s safes house and in a new body provided by Batou. Batou asks her what she will do next, in which Kusanagi replies that she does not know but states that “the net is vast”
