John: Have multiple people been infected at the same time?
Selina: Yes.
John: And you can't remove it?
Selina: Nothing we do works.
Annie: Have you seen anything like this before?
John: Similar only in a vague sense. Nothing that could help.
He tries stabbing the goop, but his syringe breaks.
John:(mumbles) Gang war...thus... Likely a human user... Medium level of specificity... Likely supernatural...
John:(mumbles) Automatic Stand? Potentially...
John: I recommend taking the infected as far as possible from Chinatown.
John: Try not to spread the gunk. I'm going to go investigate further.
Selina: In Chinatown? No way, out of the question. I can't let you in.
John: I'm aware that you are incapable of entering.
Selina:(glares) That isn't what I meant.
John: I can handle myself.
Selina: Can you even get it?
John: Of course.
Selina: How.
John: I'll show you after deducing it.
Selina:...
Annie: Okay... Let's go.
John: No. You're staying here.
Annie: Huh?
John: This is a level of danger I'm not sure I can protect you from. Stay here, I'll call if I need help.
Annie: Is she going?
Selina: If he can get in, I need to see it.
Annie: But she doesn't have a Stand.
John: I don't care if she gets hurt. I do if you get hurt.
Annie:!
Selina:(sarcastically) Aren't you too precious...
John: We can leave.
He and Selina hop out of the ambulance.
Selina: So I should be prepared for you not to have my back.
John: You aren't the first cop I have consulted with. Nor will you be the last.
John: I have warned you before of the dangers of my line of work. If you choose to ignore them...
John: Then just know, I'll help if I can. But if it comes to stopping a Stand user or saving you.
John: I'll stop the user before helping you. Because they can do more harm.
Leading Selina to a manhole cover, he slides it open and leaps in. Selina followed, expecting a horrible time, only to find it to be quite clean.
It took roughly 60 meters before the two found a ladder which they used to get into a building within Chinatown.
Selina: How did you know about this?
John: A previous case.
John: Our first stop will be a friend of mine. He'll know more about the situation here.
Sneaking over to Gibby's shop, the two enter it to find it empty.
John: Gibby, it's John.
He pops out from a fake wall.
