Attention please.

All direct flights to New Island today have been cancelled.

Passengers for New Island are advised to take Flight 575.

Flight 005 Conspiracy

Chief, we were only thirty minutes late.

Don't get so angry.

I'm not angry. I'm grieving over my bad luck.

I've got the Dirty Pair of all others. Damn central computer!

The WWWA must not have very many good agents.

They have thousands of them. Tons of them!

And they're all better than you.

Here!

Planet Dubahl, a republic in the Leo area.

That's the middle of nowhere!

It happened six days ago, standard time.

National flag carrier, Dubahl Cosmo Lines' Flight 005 exploded during flight.

DCL005 is a scheduled universal flight.

It starts from Dubahl and connects planets Dolz and Zahl.

A universal flight exploded?

Right after it warped out into Dubahl's space.

What about the passengers? Did any survive?

No! Nobody has been rescued.

DCL has already requested payment of the insurance money,

but there aren't any requests for money for the passengers.

What's going on?

The insurance company was surprised too.

They investigated and filed an action with the WWWA.

How many passengers were on DCL005?

It was full. 300 passengers.

300 passengers?

Don't they want any insurance money?

They must be very modest.

Why don't you go and wash your face?

There has been no request for compensation given to the airline.

By any chance, do none of the deceased have families?

Sounds like a Yuri idea.

The WWWA received the case from the insurance company.

The Central Computer of the United Galaxy judged that there is something unusual about this accident.

We have to find out the truth about the explosion,

and explain the mystery of 300 passengers that don't have families.

That's right. That's the first job.

The first job?!

There's more?

That's why I'm grieving over my bad luck.

About the same time as the Flight 005 accident, there was another case filed.

Dornenschtern, a Dolz scientist, and his family disappeared.

The case is a request to look for them.

Who filed the case?

Dornenschtern's father-in-law. His name is Dick.

Isn't this a job for the police?

I think so too.

No, it's not.

I really wish it was though.

But the Central Computer recognised the case Dick filed and nominated you to be in charge of it.

So we have to do two jobs at once?

I expect to have a bonus.

I'm just about to explode!

It doesn't matter if it's two, three, four or even five jobs.

Go and do your work!

And take care of this peacefully!

The chief's had it!

Don't give the old man a tough time.

Dornenschtern lived in the planet nation Zahl.

Isn't Zahl under the rule of Dolz?

No, it's an independent country.

But since it's receiving a huge amount of aid from Dolz, that's a common misunderstanding.

Dornenschtern was invited to Zahl as a researcher into ignol fluid, and moved from Dolz to Zahl.

Ignol fluid?

It looks like it's a mineral that is used for insulation.

It seems to have nothing to do with the DCL005 accident.

Why did the Central Computer put the two cases together?

I don't know.

I wonder if it's because both cases have to do with Dolz and Zahl?

Look, according to the data, Dolz and Zahl are fighting.

So what?

Is it possible the explosion may have been caused by terrorists?

Terrorism, attack by space pirates, a defect of the warp system...

There are many possible causes.

Are you going to start something?

Isn't Dubahl's Space Force investigating the DCL005 accident?

That area seems interesting.

Entry of general spaceships into the investigation area is prohibited.

Please leave the area!

I know it's prohibited, but this is our job.

We came to see the person in charge of the investigation.

No matter what the reason, entry is prohibited.

Please leave immediately.

We are the agents of the WWWA, the Lovely Angels.

Please check it out.

Lovely Angels?

The Dirty Pair...

The Dirty Pair?!

You are?

Unexpectedly, you're attractive ladies.

That's Lovely Angels.

Attractive ladies.

Idiot!

I didn't think that the WWWA would get involved with this case.

What's the cause of the explosion?

It's not clear yet.

We're trying to retrieve the warp recorder.

If we can retrieve it, we can find out if there was a warp system failure or not.

What happened to the passengers?

They were blown up by the explosion.

Specialists are trying to identify the victims by matching the names on the passenger list...

and DNA from pieces of flesh found on the retrieved fragments.

Then the passengers were definitely on board.

It looks like the data was right about the flight being full.

Then why is there no request for insurance money or compensation?

That's why we are investigating.

Don't be silly. Let's go.

Planet Dubahl

What you are asking is certainly true.

DCL005, which had the accident, was full.

How many crew members were on board?

Ten, and three hundred passengers.

May I see the passenger list?

There is...

There is?

There is no passenger list.

No list?

Usually, when passengers check-in at the counter in each port, an operator inputs the information...

and it's immediately sent to the computer at our headquarters.

But in DCL005's case, the lists weren't sent from Dolz or Zahl.

I don't know how it happened, but we are investigating now.

That's very strange.

Was it a mechanical mistake or a deliberate omission?

How do you know it was full without the list?

Right before the explosion we asked the Dolz and Zahl branches, and confirmed the number of people.

298 people got on board at Dolz and two more at Zahl.

Two passengers? The passengers from Zahl are...

Very few.

Planet Zahl

Control Centre, we request permission to land at Pilato Space Port.

This is the control centre.

— Please send the nationality of your ship, name of the ship, captain's name and ship code.

— Hey! A nice looking boy. He's your type.

He looks really yummy!

Listen, boy. The nationality of the ship is Rionez.

It belongs to the WWWA and the name is Lovely Angel.

The Dirty Pair?!

What did you say?

Nothing! Control Centre has received the request.

Darn!

Please come in.

I'll guide you around here, Miss Kei and Miss Yuri.

I'm Danny, Chief Investigator for the Aviation Investigation Bureau.

I'll help you on the investigation as DCL has requested our cooperation.

Hey, another handsome one.

I'd love to eat him.

I'm so glad to meet you!

I'm surprised that you recognised that it was us.

That was...

Hey, could you take me to the DCL check-in counter?

I have something to find out.

Sure, my pleasure.

Welcome to Dubahl Cosmo Lines.

May I have your ticket, please?

I'll help you with your check-in procedure.

No thank you.

I'd like to know the booking status of Dubahl's afternoon flights.

Just a moment please.

We still have some seats left. Would you like to check-in?

No thanks, I'll do it later.

We'll be looking forward to it.

Thank you very much.

The software is perfect.

I wonder if it's possible to get into the system on purpose?

It's probably possible.

Two names on the Flight 005 passenger's list were actually deleted from the computer's memory.

Deleted?

That's what I thought.

How do you know that they were deleted?

Please don't underestimate the Aviation Investigation Bureau.

We figured out from the bank accounts who paid for the tickets.

Ned Ryan and Bonal O'Cober.

We know the names too.

Ned Ryan and Bonal O'Cober...

False names.

False names?

The address is also false.

We went to the address and it was a closed lab.

A closed lab?

It belongs to the government.

Do you know what they researched there?

Yes, ignol fluid.

They studied the insulation material.

It was closed a month ago because it wasn't profitable enough.

It used to be a big subject.

Then the people thought it was a waste of tax money.

I want to go there.

To the lab?

Mughi, you're staying home!

I don't like places like this.

Okay! You can stay behind by yourself.

I'll go with you.

I'm surprised. I didn't expect to hear ignol fluid mentioned.

I wonder if this lab has something to do with Dornenschtern?

I have no idea. This isn't the only lab to research ignol fluid though.

The false names bother me.

It can't be just a coincidence for this to be the address.

It's dangerous! Get out of there now! An explosive has been set.

Who is this?

Kei!

Let's get out anyway!

Yuri!

Yuri! Where are you?

Yuri!

Yuri!

I won't forgive them.

I will never forgive them!

I'll take revenge for Yuri even if it takes my whole life.

Let's quit now, Kei.

I understand how you feel, but it's not good for you to drink any more.

Leave me alone! I don't want a lecture. Please drink for Yuri.

Damn it! My partner!

Kei!

She was my best friend.

We always argued, but she was my only partner.

Hey, give me another one.

Here you go.

What are you doing?

Let's quit now.

It's none of your business.

Danny?

Why didn't you get him earlier?

What was this play for?

Too late.

It's too late, Yuri.

Instead of me, Danny is...

The WWWA will borrow the evidence material.

— May I? — Yeah, sure.

At the moment, the victims are being removed by a rescue team.

One of the dead seems to be the Chief Investigator of the Aviation Investigation Bureau.

The other one seems to be an employee of Jupeca's bar.

Kei...

Yuri, where's the evidence?

Here it is.

Give it to me.

I'll investigate this.

National Secret Police Headquarters Building

A Robin Cocker mini MPK!

It's not a gun on the market.

It's the official gun of the secret police.

You guys tried to shoot us.

Who's picking a fight with the WWWA, Zahl's government or the secret police?

No one.

It was a stolen gun and the man was a fake police officer.

You'd better tell us the truth.

If not, Zahl will become an enemy of the United Galaxy.

Don't threaten me.

Do you think the Zahl Secret Police would fight against the WWWA or the United Galaxy?

It's true that the Zahl government invited Dornenschtern from Dolz to do research, but...

Dornenschtern was at the lab as I thought.

But then Dornenschtern went missing, and the lab was closed.

Why did they close the lab just because he went missing?

I can't tell you that.

But I swear that it has nothing to do with this case.

You don't need to tell us.

We'll find out once we do a compulsory search.

Wait! We don't want a compulsory search.

If you don't want it, you should tell us now.

Dolz did it.

Dolz?

I don't know the details, but the government was trying to beat Dolz.

Through the study of ignol fluid?

Yes.

How would Zahl beat Dolz by studying an insulation material?

I don't know. I don't know why.

I really don't know.

Anyway, the government was trying to beat Dolz.

If Dolz realised that, it would be a big problem.

You know that Zahl's economy is based on the aid from Dolz.

If it's cut off, our country would be destroyed.

Dornenschtern went missing, and it became possible that the ignol fluid research would surface.

— So they closed the lab all of a sudden. — That's right.

Dornenschtern was on DCL005 using a false name, wasn't he?

You knew about that?

Of course.

Dornenschtern sought political asylum in a third country, Dubahl.

And he got on board of DCL005 with his family.

The secret police found out, and blew up DCL005 to prevent his escape.

No!

We didn't do any such thing.

If we had realised beforehand, we would've stopped him from boarding.

We wouldn't do such a stupid thing like letting him leave the country!

In that case, who tried to shoot me?

Who spilled the blood of an innocent like Danny?

I don't know. I really don't know!

I've told you this much.

What difference would it make if I hid anything else?

The National Secret Police has nothing to do with it.

It is the truth, the absolute truth.

There's something for you.

From who?

There's no message.

What's wrong?

That's an old trick.

Now, please do it.

Why should I do it?

Because I'm scared.

Do you think I'm not scared?

Please, please.

Damn you!

Okay, nothing's wrong.

Really? Nothing's wrong?

Then, Kei, do your best!

Dick!

This letter is from Dick.

Is he the one that filed the case with the WWWA about Dornenschtern?

Probably.

What's that?

Ignol fluid. It says so in the letter.

Ignol fluid?!

Yuri?

What's up?

Ignol fluid isn't just an insulation material.

Ignol fluid is an inactive, non-conductive insulator, but at the same time it cuts off the magnetic field completely.

Like superconductive material.

The melting point is extremely high, 721,360,000°C.

A high-energy reactor with ignol used for its blanket material...

can produce the same power with one tenth the volume of a normal one.

Do you understand?

No, I don't.

It means if you use this material, a much smaller reactor can produce the same power as the usual size energy reactor.

Isn't that good?

Sure it is. It's a revolution in energy.

That's why they were so desperate to find him when they heard he was asking for asylum.

What's wrong?

We can entice the enemy.

It's believed that the ignol fluid can't be processed, but it seems that it can be changed into a processable condition,

if you mix it with certain impurities and treat it with a special magnetic field.

I see that Dornenschtern was developing this method.

Great! Let's let headquarters know about this as soon as possible.

I wonder if it will work?

Sure it will. They can't be quiet now that we've found the secret of ignol fluid.

Do you think the Dick who wrote that letter is the same Dick who filed the case?

Dick is trying to contact us but for some reason he can't.

So, he's doing something indirect.

How's my guessing?

At any rate, we need to see him at once.

What's with this guy?

I can't stand it any longer.

Move over!

Is it possible?

Here they come. There's a lot of them.

Mughi, your turn!

Mughi!

Good timing, Mughi!

Could you tell us your story before you get out of there?

Stop it!

Are you afraid?

Who are you?

I don't want to hear you're the National Secret Police.

Even a damn stupid police wouldn't leave the same evidence twice.

I won't kill you if you tell us the truth.

Go ahead.

Ready? Go!

Dolz, I'm from the Dolz Intelligence Agency.

That's what I thought.

If you tell us the whole truth, the WWWA will protect you.

Will you tell us the whole thing?

Come on!

I'll sort out this case.

A few years ago, Dornenschtern, the best ignol fluid researcher, was invited from Dolz to Zahl for its study.

The official purpose of this was a study of the insulation material,

but the real reason was a study of a new type of energy reactor system using ignol fluid.

Of course, Dolz sent a spy to watch him.

It is very possible that the other man with a false name was the spy.

And the spy contacted Dornenschtern's family who was left in Dolz...

and booked the tickets for all of them with the false names.

His family was probably on DCL005.

It's most natural to think that they united in the spacecraft.

But 005 exploded and became the dust of the universe.

It seems related with the Dolz Intelligent Agency.

For Dolz, it's most convenient to make people believe that the accidental explosion killed Dornenschtern.

But they took him back to their own country.

If they did that, Zahl would give up developing the ignol fluid energy reactor.

Therefore, Dornenschtern was on DCL005, but is still alive.

I think we've got it.

We've got it.

We received information from Dubahl. I'll tell you the results.

Dubahl's Space Force retrieved the warp recorder.

Did they manage to analyse it?

They did. The flight came out of warp on the way to Dubahl, which usually can be reached with one warp.

It flew in ordinary space for fifteen minutes, then went back into warp.

Right! Fifteen minutes is enough to move Dornenschtern to another ship.

That's right! After he was moved, Flight 005 blew up.

That's not it.

I have another report.

DNA of a possible passenger was found in the remains that were retrieved.

As the result of a request to the Social Health Bureau of each planet for an emergency verification,

it was matched to DNA recorded at the Social Health Bureau of Dolz.

The flesh belongs to Dornenschtern.

Dornenschtern?!

Anything else?

That's all.

Dornenschtern is dead?

That means it was just an accident.

It can't be.

If it was just an accident, we wouldn't have been targeted.

Danny wouldn't have been killed either.

The families of the 300 passengers would've requested compensation.

We're back to square one again.

Planet Dolz

A message?

"Welcome to Dolz. Please come and visit. Aldenshtut East 1536, Dick."

Dick? He must like messages.

Does he mean for us to go to his home?

It's good manners to go if you're invited.

Dick?

I'm glad you came. What about your friend?

She has another appointment.

You're not Dick.

Dolz Intelligence Agency.

I want to make a deal with you.

A deal?

Yes, as you suspected, we are from Dolz Intelligence Agency.

You're the ones that tried to kill us and killed Danny?

No, we're not.

They are Dolz intelligence agents but different from us.

What do you mean?

I'll tell you about the disgrace of our country.

Right now, the Dolz Intelligence Agency is under control of a powerful crime organisation.

They're the ones that tried to kill you.

But if you report that to the WWWA, there will be a big fuss.

If the Galaxy Federation intervenes with the government of Dolz, it may shake the position of our country in the galaxy.

If what you say is true, it means only part of the Intelligence Agency is criminal.

In that case, it shouldn't be a problem to report the truth.

We will clean up our own mess.

Are you telling me to submit a false report?

In return, we'll hand you an important person for the WWWA.

An important person?

Lucifer's leader.

Lucifer?

The main conspirator in this case.

Lucifer found Dornenschtern's study interesting,

and ordered some leaders of the organisation to sneak into the Dolz Intelligence Agency.

Soon, the leaders got important positions in the Intelligence Agency through connections and spending money.

Listen. It's Lucifer, the biggest crime organisation in the Galaxy.

And I'm telling you we'd hand one of them to the WWWA.

It's not a bad deal.

In this case, 300 people were killed.

I can't accept any deal.

300 people?

It must be a mistake.

Mistake?

There were no passengers on that ship.

The Dolz Intelligence Agency, which was controlled by Lucifer, bribed a DCL operator.

The operator made the flight fully booked through false bookings, and erased the passenger list.

What about Dornenschtern and his family?

They should've been on the flight.

I'll tell you all if you accept the deal.

If I don't?

I'll kill you.

Then you won't be able to get away with this.

I know that, but it disgraces my country's honour.

I can't let that happen.

You can't get away with this!

Kei!

Yuri!

You're terrible. Here I am...

I couldn't miss the good timing.

Do it.

Kill them! Don't let them go alive!

Please take this off!

There's no time for that!

Any survivors?

We found twelve, we're rescuing them now.

Hurry up!

Firefighters inside just passed the 25th floor.

Continue to confirm the survivors.

Yes, Sir.

Commander! People in Rescue Team 2 were injured. I'll evacuate them!

Hurry!

They've been watching my house for a long time.

What about the message from the spaceport?

I didn't send that.

Are you Dick for real this time?

I'm not young and tasty?

I wanted to meet you but didn't have a chance.

I'm surprised that you sneaked in the fire department.

I'm an ex-intelligence agent. I know many people.

I've heard you were skilled.

Did you get the letter and ignol fluid?

I received them.

A huge amount of the fluid has been taken to the Dolz military satellite.

Military satellite?

Here they come.

Hey, they're girls.

Hey, what's wrong?

Hurry up. They'll be awake soon.

I thought I saw girls.

No, I didn't see anybody.

We'll be late.

Let's go.

That's right.

Stop!

Dornenschtern!

He's still alive.

I thought he might be.

In that case, his wife and child too...

May be safe.

Lilia! Laurie!

Block 4 B.

Can you find the arms warehouse?

Wait!

We've got it.

What's that?

Powered arms.

You're good.

Just the wisdom of an old man.

We are here to rescue you, Professor Dornenschtern.

We're agents of the WWWA.

Please come with us.

My wife and daughter have been taken as hostages.

Dick will rescue Lilia and Laurie.

My father-in-law is here?

Your DNA was found on a retrieved piece of DCL005.

My cells were cloned.

That's just like Lucifer.

You know about them?

Please follow me.

Wait!

The micro-pitch sensor of GB63 is out of order.

I'll go and get a spare. Could you go with me?

Don't do anything unnecessary.

Lilia!

Father!

Grandpa!

Laurie... Lilia...

Hurry! They're coming.

Colonel Gorosia! There are intruders.

They took the hostages with them.

What? What happened to the security room?

Why didn't they sound the alarm?

I don't know.

Stupid! Make an announcement.

A state of emergency has been declared.

Be prepared to fight.

I repeat. Be prepared to fight. We have intruders.

Mughi! Start the attack!

The target is the source of my signal.

Listen! Aim there. Don't miss it.

What are you doing? We have a picture of them.

Colonel! The self-defence system is out of order.

What?!

Move over.

Hold on tight.

What? What happened?

Power down! The power reactor was attacked.

Use the emergency circuit. Connect to the lab.

We will use the ignol fluid reactor.

You can't. We haven't even done a test drive.

In that case, we'll have a test drive.

Connect the reactor to the energy supply system.

It's dangerous!

That is an order. Do it!

The power reactor has been switched.

That's what I thought would be done.

I have sabotaged the ignol fluid power reactor.

Without this rod, once they turn on the power, it will be out of control in twenty minutes.

Out of control?

It will run wild and explode.

Hey! I told you not to do anything.

It's successful. As long as I have this, it becomes realistic to be the chairman of Lucifer's supreme council.

Hurry!

No, it's out of control. It'll explode soon.

Evacuate! Withdraw!

The power reactor will explode!

Withdraw! The reactor will explode!

What?

Get out of here. The station will explode.

Return to your section. Anyone who leaves their position will be shot.

Colonel, the reactor is out of control.

It's dangerous, we must evacuate.

Shut up! I won't allow any action without my permission.

Damn!

Move!

Please wait.

Damn you!

Hurry!

Go deeper in.

Kei! Hurry!

Hold on!

Laurie!

Honey!

Daddy!

Get down!

Take Laurie!

Dick!

Go across quickly, Lilia!

Quick!

Dick!

Hurry, Dick!

No, I can't move it.

What?

Yuri, Kei, take care of them!

Dick!

Father!

Grandpa!

Dick!

Father!

Dick!

Lilia!

Laurie!

Grandpa!

I won't let you go. I mustn't let you go.

I'll take you to Hell with me, Dirty Pair.

Grandpa...

Danny, Dick...
