The Chemical Plant Explosion (化學工場爆發事故), also referred to as the Chemical Plant Explosion Plan by So Sejima, was an incident mentioned in the Lemniscate YouTube series and in AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES. The underlying purpose of the explosion was to successfully fund and further Sejima's plans to create Casino Town Kabasaki.
Performed by So Sejima and the Kumakura Family, and masterminded by Saito Sejima, it was an explosion that occurred at the old chemical plant in the Kabasaki District. The explosion caused a quarantine within the entirety of the Kabasaki District island. This resulted in the closure of Bloom Park and the real estate prices dropping dramatically.

Trivia[]
- The term Chemical Plant Explosion was a keyword featured in the announcement trailer for AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES, floating in the background at the beginning. The term refers to this event 8 years prior to the game.
- In the Lemniscate YouTube series, the Chemical Plant Explosion is referred to have happened "6 years ago" in relative to 2019. Based on the current understanding of the timeline, however, the game AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES is also set in 2019, which refers to the Explosion as occurring "8 years ago." It's unclear if this is a discrepancy between media, or if it's an intentional detail of some kind.
