The Underground Expedition

Oh, Potpourri! On your way home from school?

That's right!

Nowhere to be found...

Hm? What's up?

Oh, Potpourri.

We're just looking for something.

Looking for something?

Yeah, I had a silver lighter on display here earlier...

Things have been going missing a lot lately.

I noticed I'd lost a little loupe from my store a little while ago.

Who would take stuff like that?

Oh yeah!

You think maybe some crows took that stuff?

Crows?

Yeah, since all the missing things are shiny!

I read in a book that crows love collecting shiny things.

Crows...

The way magic seeds sparkle is always so pretty.

Yes it is.

Must be because of all the different kinds of magic flowing through them.

It kinda feels like they're drawing me off into a world of magic.

What is it, Niboshi?

Outside! There was something outside!

What was it?

All right!

Where are you going, Potpourri?

Oh my.

Huh?

Where could they have gone?

But I've never heard that cats like shiny things too.

Looks like I totally lost them...

That must be the lighter Mr. Tobacconist was speaking of!

Those are some weird looking cats though.

What kind of cats have hoods like that on their heads?

But taking other people's stuff makes them thieves all the same.

Hey, you! I've got you now!

Owie...

Huh?

T-They're gone...

N-No way! They were definitely right here!

Wh-What's this hole doing here?

Could they really be hiding in here?

It's too dark to see anything...

Oh!

This is exactly what magic is for!

Rick's light magic, so he could...

What do I do now?

Magic, magic, come on out...

Magic, magic, come on out!

I guess nothing else really works.

I can't make any magic without that lid.

What if I'll never be able to use magic again?

"There are many mysteries under the ground."

"At long last, we had embarked on our underground expedition."

Underground expedition...

I lost it, so I need to go look for it myself!

It's going to be dark in there so I definitely need a flashlight!

And I'll mark my path from the entrance with yarn so I don't get lost.

The jumping rope is a rope, so...

Yeah! I need snacks in case I get hungry in the middle of searching!

Oh?

Is she going mountaineering with friends?

Snacks?

Oh yes!

I've got the perfect thing.

There there, Niboshi, you couldn't possibly eat that much.

Quit tugging. It's very annoying.

Niboshi!

Oh my, what do you think you're doing up there?

Oh dear!

Where did you all come from?

I haven't had time to put on my makeup, going outside is out of the question.

Hold on, why don't you stay and have some tea? Doesn't that sound good?

30-Minute Special

Good to go.

Sweet things are good for when you're tired. Share this with everyone.

Geez, Mom...

But since she went ahead and gave me this...

Rock candy

Rock candy

Rock candy

Rock candy

This is pretty heavy...

M-Miss Fukiko?

Oh no!

Miss Fukiko! Miss Fukiko!

Is this...

Dirt?

Why?

This is a time for Tabith's Loupe!

Unseen, unseen, make it seen!

Footsteps?

Th-This is bad! They stole Miss Fukiko!

Uhh...

Wasn't it around here?

Just where was it?

Err...

W-Was it this big before?

Did they do this to fit Miss Fukiko?

With this I'll find my way back here.

I feel a bit lonely without magic, but...

I gotta do this!

But to think there are tunnels like this right under the Smiling Ginza...

I bet no one else in town knows about this!

Which way should I go?

But just what are these underground cat things?

It looked like they were walking on two legs too...

Wh-What was that light?

Could it be the mole cats?

Wh-What should I do?

I could have drowned!

M-Miss Fukiko's rocking chair?

M-Miss Fukiko couldn't have...

I'm all cold now...

What now? The flashlight stopped working too...

Am I just gonna be stuck here in the dark?

And all alone?

I can't even use magic.

And Miss Fukiko is...

What's that?

This...

The lid of Aldell's vial!

It fell all the way down here!

My red marker yarn?

And my hat!

Owie...

Fell down again...

There are this many?

I guess the mole cats weren't cats after all!

What is this place?

The mole cats' nest?

Why do I gotta go through all this?

This sound...

Oh?

Oh my, Potpourri! You managed to find your way all the way down here!

M-Miss Fukiko, you're okay!

Did you come to rescue us, Potpourri?

O-Of course!

You shouldn't be so relaxed about this!

We have to get out or the mole cats will...

But...

You again! You took my vial's lid!

What? You're the one that's supposed to be giving me my stuff back!

Potpourri!

What?

I think they want the thing on your back.

What? On my back?

Oh, there's a hole in it!

The rock candy Mom gave me...

These aren't jewels though.

They're called rock candy, you're supposed to eat them.

Here, try some.

It's really sweet.

Aldell's Vial's lid!

I'll trade this for it then.

I-Is it really that good?

Though I'm glad you seem to have liked it.

Well then, Potpourri. Shall we leave while they're distracted?

M-Miss Fukiko...

But I don't know the way out anymore.

Don't you feel it? There's a slight breeze.

A slight breeze?

I can feel it! A wind blowing toward the sky!

Miss Fukiko!

Oh dear...

Magic, magic, come on out!

Shuka shuka!

Shu!

Pinch! There you are!

Shuka!

Take us to the sky along the wind!

Shuka shuka!

Bye bye, little mole cat!

No more stealing from now on!

The mole cats are constantly traveling underground.

So they probably won't take anything from Smiling Ginza again.

Shu!

Shuka shuka!

We're back!

We're back in Smiling Ginza!

In my town!

But that was kinda fun. An underground expedition!

I wonder if I'll meet that mole cat again somewhere.

hitoribocchi hitotsu wasurerateta ki no mi

A lone fruit, from a forgotten tree.

furikaette futatsu kinou fuita kaze yo

Turn around and there's two, with the wind from yesterday.

mikazuki ni mittsu omoide o uta

Three with the crescent moon, singing of reminiscence.

Fourth is joy, of that small life.

yorokobi o yottsu chiisakatta inochi

One day, it will be told. One day, gently.
