The explosion tears the steel panel from the screw holding it shut. In the process, some of the stairs leading down are destroyed, which causes the panel to collapse backward and tumble down to the landing below. However, the tower stays upright, and the group is easily able to crawl through the door and head to the next level.
As the group nears the sudoku block, they spot another steel door. This one appears to have a large clock face with iron hands on it. The description for the puzzle makes it seem like quite a doozy.
"Is this even possible?" Juanli asks.
The group ignores the puzzle and looks around the landing. One of the walls is singed and falling apart. The sudoku block lies nearby.

"I knew asking questions in the presence of these faces was a stupid idea... And now I have gone and done it..." The doctor said, clearly not happy with what happened.

“This is our chance!” Mao shouts, “It’s time to fight back!”
But most of their weapons would be ineffective. The grenades would certainly kill him, and they needed the harpoon gun to get down. How else could they incapacitate him?

"The only option we have left is to drop something onto Taikong's head, whenever you like it or not!" The doctor yelled at the medic before he looks around and spotted the sudoku block that was knocked loose from the killer sudoku door.
"I think we can drop that onto Taikong's head." He said as he points at the sudoku block with his cane.

The chunk of the puzzle whistles as it falls from the sky. Taikong kneels down, carefully fastening his explosives to the tower. He only looks up at the last second and tries to dive out of the way, but by then it's too late. The sudoku panel lands on his feet with a gruesome crunch, pinning his legs to the ground.
Taikong's pained scream echoes throughout the courtyard.
"Taikong!" Mei shouts.
She grabs the harpoon gun, fires it into the ground, and then fastens the gun around one of the wooden beams. This creates another zip line, which the group uses to get back down to the ground.
你们找到了!
(You found it!)
(You found it!)
Mao glances over to Taikong—still lying under the sudoku piece but clearly alive.
"That boy's got a lot to answer for," he says.
"Now hold on, General," Amandi replies, "There's something you're forgetting."
Amandi steps over to the safe near the wreckage of the tower, which awaits an 8-letter code...

Satisfied, he puts away the file and goes back to join the others, who are standing over where Taikong lies pinned to the grey ground...

"Know who else I thought was special? Kwon. Everything else I could forgive... everything else, I could try to understand. But to kill one of my soldiers, one of your comrades... and shoot him from behind like a goddamn coward!" He spat with anger. "So come on, Private! Tell me what I'm not understanding!"

"X... Just you wait, X! I'll find you! And once I find you, I'm taking you back under my care!" He shouted to the open sky. Though, where would the doctor even start his search for X? She could be anywhere by now...

"See? What did I tell you?" He asked with a smug look on his face. He have been right to not believe that Mei killed Amethyst. Then he glances to Taikong.
"What do you mean? What was the truth that Amethyst discovered?" The doctor asked.

He paused for a few moments. The conclusion was clear, but he felt he had to say it anyway, to admit to it. "I am Cat. I'm the one who kidnapped you all and made you play the Zodiac Game."

“He must be working for the Americans.” Mao grimaced. “That’s the only way I can make sense of this. And even then...”
Despite the pain, Sun Taikong smiled. Then he laughed, harder than he had in a while. "Of course that's how you'd rationalise it, Mao. It's the only way this would all make sense to you. Really, that sort of thinking is what drove me to these extents in the first place."
He pushed himself up awkwardly by his elbows, something deep within driving him now. "I suppose in a sense I'm doing this for the Americans, just as much as I'm doing it for us, the Chinese, too. It's this damn war, Mao. This war will ruin us, and the cockroaches who'll outlast it will drive the nail into the coffin. Cockroaches like you, and the rest of our government. Corrupt, evil monsters who sacrifice ordinary citizens and then oppress the ones unlucky enough to survive."
He took a few deep breaths, a manic look to his eyes now. This was something he'd been holding inside for a long time now, and it was liberating to just let it all out. "I needed to end the war. End the suffering. That's no small task, only a radical solution would work. I'm not sure how I came up with this plan - I was on a lot of pain meds, I was in a dark, dark place after watching so many people die, my mind was going places it's never gone before - but here we are. The Zodiac Game. You'll call me crazy, but I know it'll work. I had Yang confirm it for me. I will put an end to your madness, Mao. You, and all the rest of them."

“An end to this war?” Mao was the one laughing now. “And how pray-tell did you plan to accomplish this with only 10 other people? You really thought you could do something that hundreds of brilliant men have already attempted?”
"I did! I really did!" Sun Taikong said, laughing alongside Mao at the sheer absurdity of it all. "Now that you say it, I probably am crazy. The old me would have never done this. The old me would have called me crazy too. But you know what? I still think I'm right. I know I'm right. Maybe I did succeed where countless others have failed. What I did, that no-one in power on either side tried, was aim for peace. Not a victory, just an end. And I did what few others would be willing to do. This Game may have broken me beyond repair, but it will work."

"PEACE?!" Mao shouted. "Do you not understand a single thing about this world?!"
SMACK
"You were supposed to protect this country! Now, and after me!"
SMACK
"You're nothing more than a goddamn traitor!"
SMACK
"A lowlife, good-for-nothing murderer! A no-good, filthy fucking piece of vermin! A fucking rat!"
SMACK, SMACK
Taikong's face was beaten and bloody, so he didn't even register Mao pulling a pistol out from his jacket. He pulled back the hammer before anyone around him could even stop him.
"You want peace?! Here's your goddamn peace!"
He pulled the trigger.

Once Mao turns away, she practically leaps towards Taikong and tries lifting the tile on his legs up, tears making their way down her cheeks. That effort was also vain, but it was the one thing she could focus on right now.

He was no longer able to prop himself up, so he addressed the others while staring up at the sky, feeling a little more comfortable like that. "There goes a man who killed a child and twisted the event into a 'sacrifice for his growth as a person'. A man who abducted a child to manipulate a rival country. A man with more blood on his hands than anyone we've locked up in our prisons. And yet he's only one of the problems. There's people like him in positions of power all the way up to the top. You can at least see, I hope, why I despaired so until I came up with the Zodiac Game. What were we even fighting, and dying, for? Just to be pawns in a game of power for the Maos of this world?
"You know... Amethyst got a lot of people killed, once. I think she wanted to end the war, just like I do. She sold us out to the Americans, who bombed our headquarters. Even that didn't stop the Maos. It would take something even more drastic to actually make an impact. Something radical, something... crazy. I suppose that's the real reason only someone like me could come up with the solution. A crazy man for a crazy plan."
