Section Nine breaks up a group of thieves planning to rob a Japanese bank but are then informed a communist revolutionary is going to assassinate a prominent investment banker, Yokose. Yokose is a former mathematician who made a fortune on the stock market. Section Nine and the revolutionary arrive at roughly the same time but Yokose has been dead for months. Instead, Yokose's fortune has been managed by a computer program he created before his death. Later, Togusa's wife is doing some day trading when the program hacks in and starts making some wise investments on their behalf.

Acting on a tip, Section 9 breaks up a cabal of thieves planning to rob a Japanese financial institution. Shortly after the raid, a Chinese intelligence official contacts Section 9 and informs them of suspicious activity that he believes may indicate an assassination attempt by Chinese Socialists on Kanemoto Yokose, a prominent, yet reclusive, Japanese billionaire. Section 9 is therefore tasked with protecting Yokose, a 56-year-old ex-mathematician who has amassed a fortune by playing the stock market. Section 9 and the assassin arrive within minutes of each other, but after reaching Yokose’s bedroom, both sides discover that Yokose died from a medical condition several months ago, and an advanced computer program had been managing his investments the whole time.
