What is this?!

Mio Kanesaka. I'm going
to threaten you now.

- Huh?
- Work for me.

The Intimidator: Kanji Senkawa

Or I'll send this picture
around the whole school.

How did this end up happening?

Rich Female University Student: Mio Kanesaka

I'm supposed to be just an
ordinary university student...

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Thank you for waiting,
what would you like?

Coffee for two please and...

I'm the person who's
taking on your request,

Sawako Kasaya-san -
- And you are?

Client: Sawako Kasaya

I'm the Intimidator.
Nice to meet you.

A close friend of Eru-san?

Don't tell me you...

you don't know her!
She was immensely popular....

Is she a famous person?

'Gomen ne Katamoi',
'KISS LOVE HUG',

'Nakitai oki hodo namida wa denai'.
You don't know these famous songs?

I don't think
I know them.

I can't think of you as a twenty-something,
you're more like an endangered species!

I'm not a dinosaur!

What happened to this Eru-san?

Eru...

Eru Tachibana
passed away a year ago.

Huh?

It started with
a radio program.

Today, please listen
to my new song,

"Love BOMB!

Because of the title, I was told not to play the song

due to a recent bomb scare.

How the hell is my
song gonna hurt somebody?

I'd be an idiot to hold
back for something so stupid.

Singer-songwriter: Eru

Because of this, the
press began bashing Eru,

accusing her of
being disrespectful.

Every little thing was exaggerated
and blown out of proportion.

It was this article that had a fatal impact
and turned everything for the worst.

Ah...

Diva Eru used a GHOSTWRITER!!

Ghostwriter?

Possibly as evidence, someone
posted the handwritten lyrics

which looked different from
her handwriting. Look there.

Eru could no longer stand
being called a fake, so she...

Someone planned
this ghostwriter rumor.

I was with her forever, so
I know she did no such thing!

So would you like us to
intimidate the article's publisher?

I know I'm being a bit forward but,
blackmail is a crime you should avoid.

It's not about money!

I want the person who cruelly
bullied Eru in the press

to write a retraction
and restore her honor.

I'd like it done before
her death anniversary.

Takuma Motegi.

The article made the magazine
famous and he became editor-in-chief.

- Here you are.
- OK!

Hacker: Tochiotome

Thief artist: Meguro

Are you guys
celebrating something?

- It's a welcome party with curry.
- Welcome party?

It's to celebrate you
officially joining our group.

Meguro's curry looks delicious,
but you'll be surprised

how average it tastes.

Alright, relax and eat
to our hearts content!

If you guys think I'm
becoming a member...

Tochiotome, where's the guy's house?

Eh, you can't!

You're going to threaten
editor-in-chief, Motegi

to retract the
article, aren't you?

Accusing someone
randomly is absolutely horrible.

- Nevertheless, threats are...
- How about

we catch a scoop this guy
is dying to get his hands on

and trade with that?

- I think that's fine.
- Is it really?

Yes, as long as there's
no threatening involved.

What I looked into was a
house with a little something.

Permission Pea. Do
you mean the snack?

- Does she usually react this slowly?
- Yup.

Yuuto Kakimiya has been
actively singing and acting...

and has become
really popular recently.

I like him a lot.

If you were a magazine editor, what
kind of scoop would you like?

A young, hot actor
that's growing in popularity.

An honest young man
trapped in a sex scandal.

Yup.

It's the Senkawa cannon!

The Senkawa Cannon?

Is catching a scoop so easy?

That's where you come in!

Mio Kanesaka.

Alright, let's eat this.

- Looks delicious.
- The spinach smells great!

We're here.

I refuse. I won't do it.

This is a business I'm
running, so it's an order.

Your "business" seems
to exploit its employees.

- Do we exploit the employees, Meguro?
- Yes...

Do you think you can back
out this late in the game?

Mio Kanesaka.

Ah!

- He's here.
- Go Mio Kanesaka.

Now!

And thus I became

a partner in crime.

I have no choice.

Ah!

Ah...

- Are you OK?
- I'm OK.

I feel so bad, luring such a

kind person into my trap.

- Um, you're Yuuto Kakumiya-san, right?
- Huh?

Um, I'd like to hug you...

- What?
- I'm sorry.

Hey!

- Are you my fan?
No,

I just realized what I did.

- That is below you.
- Yes it is.

I usually don't do
such impolite things.

I'm really sorry!

Good job.

From now, I will threaten you.

Episode 2

Wouldn't it be better
if I didn't play that role?

You played your part quite nicely.

That's how it is? All
business till the end.

You're pretty smart.

Welcome.

Please take a seat here.

- Let's go.
- OK.

- Make it for two.
- OK Senkawa san.

editor-in-chief: Takuma Moteki

I sent the email to you.
Pleased to meet you.

Ah, it's you.

You wanted to sell me a scoop.

Yes. I'm the Intimidator.

The Intimidator?
What does that mean?

I'd like to do businness with you.

Before that, could you
please empty your pockets?

Your phone as well.

So, let me get to the point.

Takuma Moteki, from now
on I'm going to threaten you.

I want you to write a
retraction of the Eru article.

An article that restores her honor.

Eru? The singer who
committed suicide?

Gossip is that your
article caused her suicide.

I only write articles based
on facts I've collected.

You claimed she had a ghostwriter.
Isn't that complete nonsense?

That information came
from a reliable source.

The popular singer's
disguise was pulled off and

the readers believed it.

At this point, I don't want stories
about people dying. they don't sell well.

There is an exclusive scoop
that I can sell for a high price.

But I'll give it
to you, no charge.

If you pass up a scoop like this your
publisher might forget you in the future.

Then... what's this?

Last night, my company also
kept an eye on Yuuto Kakimiya.

Don't you think your
staged scoop is hopeless?

Am I right? The
lady over there?

I appreciate your effort.

Well then.

Senkawa's cannon has
tragically misfired.

Greater the certainty, further the fall.

You used a fake photo to
make a scoop, which was wrong.

He's the editor-in-chief,
of course they're watching us.

Because of you, "Hachibe"...

they witnessed the fake scoop.
- Ukkari Hachibe?

He was a disciple of Yashichi!

He was also a friendly,
frivolous person

who enjoyed sweet rice dumplings.

You're a "Mito Komon" TV series fan!

I won't deny I'm not careless like

Ukkari Hachibe.

But Senkawa-san over here tried
to deceive someone foolishly,

so he's the evil
local governor.

You are an evil
governor, aren't you?

No no, I'm not
a local governor.

Rather than blaming
your failures on others,

shouldn't you reflect
on your mistakes?

Failures? That's expected.

Are you already thinking
about your next scheme?

- Well, slowly.
- Slowly?

So tell us the next step.

Well then, I'll take my leave.

Hang on, your
job isn't over yet.

You've got to report
the news to the client.

Me?

I'll leave it to you.

I see. It seems Takuma Motegi

doesn't want to
admit his mistake.

Do you also like
music, Sawako-san?

Eru-san and I went to
the same high school.

I was placed very low in what's known
now as the 'school caste' system.

I was treated as the plain, simple music
lover who doesn't attract much attention.

Eru was bright, fun and very
popular with the whole class.

Eru was singing a song
by my favourite artist.

My heart was instantly
captured by her melodic voice.

I wanted to sing with Eru
so I practiced playing my

instrument to the
best of my ability.

Both of us were
immersed in music everyday.

In class, we passed messages

- written in musical notes.
- Musical notes?

Yes. Musical notes replace the letters.

I believed that Eru would
definitely become a star.

She saved people with her singing
voice, just like she saved me.

There were actually quite a
lot of fans who were saved.

It must be heartbreaking,
losing such a dear friend.

Eru used to like sitting here
and looking up at the sky.

She's suffering because
she couldn't save her friend.

I can't leave this person alone.

Sawako-san.

I want to also clear away the false
accusations made against Eru-san.

Huh? Money?

To threaten Motegi,
we need money.

About 3 million should do it, right?

Well we obviously
don't have 3 million.

It seems the jobs selected by a certain
someone almost put us in the red, right?

Every month, I have
trouble making ends meet.

Um, sorry to disturb.

While reporting
to the client,

we had a little chat.

Sawako-san and Eru-san
went to high school together.

She fell in love with
Eru-san's melodic voice

and they went on to
play songs together.

They would exchange
letters written with musical notes.

What do you mean?

This is a simplified
chart of the musical notes.

For example, for M, I, O

you would draw the eighth note, then
the quarter note and then the eighth note.

Oh I see. You substitute the
alphabet with musical notes.

Other than this, what did you
think when you met Sawako Kasaya?

What do you mean?

Since you're
kind and thoughtful,

I thought you might
have felt something.

Ah, I thought about wanting to clear away
the false accusations made against Eru-san.

As long as it's done in a lawful
manner and without intimidation.

Mmm, so how about this?

We'll ask Motegi to look
into Eru-san again,

then ask him to
print a retraction.

Ah, I think that's
a brilliant idea!

But Motegi is a sly,
old editor-in-chief.

It'll be difficult to get
him to retract something.

But maybe, just maybe,
we can solve it with money?

That's right. We could pay
him around 3 million, right?

Yeah.

Isn't it wrong to use
money to get articles written?

- Not at all.
- It's a necessary expense.

- It's quite common.
- It's campaign funds.

You said you won't use
your money for yourself,

but to help others, right?

This is how
you can help.

I want to help in
the right way.

Not in a sneaky way.

You're willing to pay
30 million for a stranger,

so is it wrong to pay 3 million to
restore the honor of someone who died?

- That's not the problem.
- So what's the problem?

I don't want to be someone that
needs money to solve everything.

Isn't this a good
solution as a last resort?

Our job is to make our
requests successful, right?

I have no intention
of joining your group.

Other than money, what
are your strong points?

Overly serious, naively honest
and unusually softhearted.

Other than those three
attributes, what else do you have?

- There must be something else.
- There isn't.

- There is!
- There isn't
and that's that!

I won't use money!

I'll restore Eru-san's
honor in a different way.

I'm leaving.

- Don't ever come here again!
- That's a given.

She'll probably
never come again.

You said it was
a good tactic.

How annoying.

Is there a way to recover Eru-san's honor

without using money?

There is a
way, surely.

Huh, Mio? You're
listening to Eru-san ?

I guess Mio-chan is
falling in love after all.

This is simply a reference. Quite
a beautiful piece of music though.

The lyrics and the
melody of the song

make you feel
giddy, don't they?

But an article exposed that
her songs were ghost written.

It's a shock that she died, but

I did feel kind of
deceived after hearing it.

Ah, I really wanted
that giddy feeling to return.

Having said that, we can
really sympathize with Eru-san

because of this
song, isn't it?

- See you.
- Bye bye.

Does everyone in the world
see Eru-san this way?

What can I do about this?

I did it again.

If it's OK...

Neighbor: Kaoru Kyoda

This is great! I wanted to
eat something sweet too.

That's a relief to hear.

If it's OK, why
don't you join me?

Huh?

I feel like it'll taste even
better if we eat together.

Because of my curiosity and his kindness,
I ended up entering a man's...apartment.

- Did you say something?
- Ah, no nothing.

What were you
thinking about this time?

- Huh?
- When you think about something,

you told me you have a
habit of making rice dumplings.

If you like, you could tell me
even though I won't be too helpful.

I want to restore the honor of a
dead person who's been misunderstood.

But what I can do for her,
is nothing to boast about.

It'd be amazing if
something could be done.

Ah.

I picked this up because

I could do something at the arcade.

It resembles a stuffed
animal I liked a long time ago.

You can have
it if you want?

- Is that OK?
- In exchange for the rice dumplings.

Thank you very much.

Don't be afraid.

I think you should do
something that only you can do,

to help others.

Somehow, my heart felt lighter.

You want to
pay Motegi?

- Huh?!
- Huh?!

Yes. After what you
said, I thought I should

make use of
my strengths.

That's right! You ought
to make the most of it.

Even if I act stubborn,
the fact that I can pay

money doesn't change.

As expected you're strength lies with
simplicity...no I mean in an honest place.

I'll go and see Motegi tomorrow
with some information I've collected.

Senkawa-san, thank you for
providing me with the opportunity

to reflect on myself.

And the same from me!

We got the 3 million!

Yay!

Even so, why does she
want to pay the 3 million?

It's probably because of
the way young girl's think.

Senkawa's second
cannon is in action!

Thank you.

So the partner of the
Intimidator wished to meet me?

Sorry for taking
up your time.

Strictly speaking though, I'm not
really a partner of the Intimidator.

Could you briefly tell me
what you wanted to discuss?

I'd like you to write a
retraction of the Eru-san article.

I'm going to refuse such a request.

Eru-san using ghost
writers is the truth.

There's also clear evidence it
was a fabrication to slander her.

So I'd like you to
collect the data once more.

Collect the
data again?

Unfortunately, no one is really
interested in reading about a dead person.

But the fabrication you printed
will be considered factual!

Please report the
truth about Eru-san.

This is for your expenses
to get the info again.

So please get the data
on Eru-san one more time.

How annoying! I'm not some
hack you can buy off!

So look at this as money to
cover the cost to re-check the facts.

I don't need money.

The only thing I
want is a scoop.

I understand that but...

- Hey! I've got evidence against him.
- Huh?

I told you not to
misappropriate our money.

- A good for nothing lady.
- Misappropriate?

Since we already possess
this large amount of money,

I already told you we're going
to stop recovering Eru-san's honor.

What's going on?

I also don't...

We've located the person that
gave you the scoop about Eru-san

and coaxed the
truth out of them,

and they readily
gave us the money.

They must be reflecting on
what a bad thing they did to Eru.

Which is why we're going to
stop pressing you for a retraction.

And even then, this person here,
like a sly fox, tries stealing information.

- A thief.
- Huh?

Stop uttering nonsense.

It's not nonsense.

Whether you believe
it or not is up to you.

Anyway, we're going to
remove ourselves from this case.

Well, I'm looking
forward to your scoop.

Let's go.

What do you mean by misappropriation
and restoring of Eru-san's honor being canceled?

Come on... come on...

Also, you lied about knowing the
source of Eru-san's slander, right?

- That's right, isn't it?
- Yes, I was bluffing.

Hattari Hanzo? ( A play on Samurai's name: Hattori Hanzo)

Ah, when you combine 'hattari' and '
hattori', it becomes Hattari Hanzo, right?

You made a bad pun
but I'm very familliar

with the period drama, so
I understood it quite easily,

What's happening?

Right now, he's on
the phone with someone.

I'm going to look into his call log and I.D. who it is.

Yes!

So you really didn't
pay them money?

I said that, didn't I?

Please don't contact
me if it's to ask about

some con-man wannabes!

Kimie Tsuchiura

Editor-in-chief.

Kimie Tsuchiura?

Yup, she's the former
company manager.

Huh? Motegi-san is thug that bullied Eru-san to suicide?!

I wouldn't want to keep in
touch with a guy like that.

Suspicious isn't it? There's no clear connection between these
two, yet it seems they're connected by Eru-san's incident, after all.

There must be a reason
why he wrote a fabricated story.

Do a background
check immediately.

Meguro, are you
ready to leave?

Too late to
back out now.

OK, off to
work you go!

Meguro, the businessman,
will head off on business.

I'll leave it to you.

Excuse me.

Yes. At the
usual place?

OK.

I restored the mail that
Kimie Tsuchiura deleted.

A deleted email?
That's brilliant.

She was sending a few suspicious
emails to Motegi, a year ago.

This must be a
proposition to trade

her own story
for Eru-san's.

Are they seriously doing
a business transaction?

Motegi got hold of a scoop
related to Kimie Tsuchiura.

It'd be quite troublesome
if the story was exposed.

Thank you.

I'm saved.

I hear you're
a good one.

What are
you looking at?

- Go over there!
- Excuse me.

Kimie-san.

Will you be granting my wish soon?

How do I rank
compared to the rest?

I don't put
women in a rank.

Liar.

I'll consider your wish if you think about
making me your number one woman.

You won't regret it.

Is that so?

Let's go and get sushi.

So the company manager
is also a drug dealer.

What an awful thing.

That Fuwagami
group is also involved.

Ah, that's right.
Fuwagumi's boss-

Do you mean the group that was
involved in the bank transfer scam?

That day, you narrowly
escaped death.

Who do you think
saved you that time?

That time, I was in
such a dangerous...

It was Meguro-san
that helped me.

Yeah.

Fuwagumi's boss and
that woman are in...

Even though the company
manager sold out Eru,

this is probably the story
they wanted to exchange.

Then Eru-san is...

This is something we can use to
coax information out of the boss...

So he kept Tsuchiura Kimie's secret
and was treated as a nuisance

and thought of as
a suspicious person?

Does that mean
that the evidence

that Eru had a ghost
writer was also fabricated?

What?

Kimie Tsuchiura
sent this to Motegi.

Huh?

Did you notice what I did?

You did too?

We've discovered
the ghost writer.

Keeping a secret is quite
troublesome, Sawako Kasaya-san.

Huh?

You were Eru's
ghost writer.

How did you know?

This symbol here,

is the same symbol
written over there, isn't it?

There's one thing
I want to ask.

Since you're Eru's
ghost writer,

why did you ask us
to restore Eru's honor?

I think you lied
to us on purpose.

What happened
between the two of you?

I wasn't talented
enough to sing.

But Eru had a beautiful
voice, and people flocked to her.

Eru sang the songs
and I wrote them.

We complemented each other.

But the weekly
magazine continuously

bashing Eru made...

Look Eru, the number of songs made
just by the two of us. There's so many!

Your songs give people
the strength to carry on.

If you just sing again,
the gossip will stop!

- That's why-
- I don't need it!

Eru the artist is a fake!

I won't sing anymore.

Leave me alone.

- Eru...
- Don't come here again!

Not long after, that music
score was released to the public.

How is Eru?

Eru said she doesn't
want to see anyone.

Our collaboration was a
secret kept by just the two of us.

Our friendship would end when
someone else found out our secret.

I thought that Eru must have
exposed the story about the

ghost writer
because of me.

So she hated me
and killed herself.

And because of that,

you wanted to atone for
what you did to Eru Tachibana.

I'm sorry I hid this
from you guys.

You no longer have to
continue with my request.

No.

I'm going to make Motegi write
a retraction of Eru's story as planned.

Huh?

It doesn't matter who
the ghost writer is.

In whatever way we can,

we'll fulfil your request.

I understand Motegi and Tsuchiura were
partners, but how on earth can you intimidate Motegi?

Even if you shove all the facts
at him, he can feign ignorance, right?

I don't believe he'll help
to restore her honor.

Don't we have something
we could threaten him with?

I keep repeating myself, but I
think it's better if you don't threaten him.

Why don't we think about
other ways other than threatening?

Are you some kind
of Mother Theresa?

Your work is the plan of
a cunning local governor.

The only thing I could agree with
is catching the scoop Motegi-san

wants and doing
business with that.

Really appreciate that.

How about
starting again by

looking for a really
interesting scoop?

I'm pretty confident I could
fabricate something though.

I just know something
scoop-worthy about Fuwagumi's boss.

Huh, what is it?

That's enough for today.
Mio Kanesaka, go home.

Then please return the
picture you threatened me with.

I guess it's
OK to return it.

It's not this picture.
I need you to give me the...

We can fire the
final Senkawa cannon.

Meguro.

This one, do
it this way.

and this one...

Everyone please settle
down as everything is ready.

Just as I expected of you.

To be in such
a bright place.

So, what are you going to
do after you finish your speech?

Why? Are you pulling
out of Eru's case?

Ah, no. We're surprisingly insistent.

Do what needs to be
done, and we'll quickly leave.

What is it?

Takuma Motegi, I'll be
threatening you once again.

Write a retraction to
restore Eru's honor.

If you don't, your secret
will be revealed to the world.

My secret? And
what will that be?

You wrote in the article
that Eru had a ghost writer.

The reason is because you made a trade with the company
president Tsuchiura Kimie and her drug dealing story.

Kimie Tsuchiura's
drug dealing story?

If I caught such a scoop,
I wouldn't let go of it.

Oh really? I wonder if you can say the same
thing after you see what we've got. Meguro-kun.

Tada!

I already told you I know that
was staged. Just give up already.

Giving up... I see, it's staged.

- Meguro-kun.
- Tada!

This picture on its
own might look staged.

However, what do you think people will see
when they look at both pictures together?

So the editor-in-chief hired a
woman and fabricated a scoop?

Ah, is that what
they'll think?

That's why I didn't
take the money.

The world isn't interested
in whether it's true or not.

Say no to a retraction now,

and I'll expose you
right here, right now.

Something like,
"The woman in the picture is your accomplice"...

Looks like a lot of people
from your rival company in there.

Which means his long life as an
editor-in-chief will come to a quick end.

Life as a reporter too, right?

Eru ended her life.

You're better off
because you're alive.

I'll give you two options.

A: Write a retraction.

B: If you don't, I'll enlighten the

world with the scoop

about you.

Motegi-san, you'll
be going on shortly.

I'll write a retraction.

Tsuchiura Kimie and Fuwagumi group
are related through drug dealing.

You also caught this story?

Around the time I got hold of
President Tsuchiura's scoop, she asked me

to trade it with Eru's story.

It was the story about
Eru having a ghost writer.

Eru, this is what mere
bashing does to you?

Please start writing
at least one new song.

My songs are just a
way to make money, right?

You make fun of music.

I don't make fun of anything.

So why are you
still dealing drugs?

I even begged
you to quit, didn't I?

Eru...

To protect the secret
that she disclosed to you,

she interfered with Eru's
life and sold you her secret.

If you know that's the truth,
why do you blackmail me?

Because I'm very
passionate about my job.

Please write an
article that sells well.

Please.

Please welcome the editor-in-chief
of Weekly Magazine, Takuma Motegi-san.

WEEKLY MAGAZINE

ERU VINDICATED!
"Ghostwriter": Baseless Office Rumor

It seems Eru was a
good person after all.

That ghostwriter
theory was a lie.

If she can't overlook
some one taking drugs,

ghostwriting is
out of the question.

That's why I'm listening
to Eru's songs again.

Seriously that giddy
feeling is coming back!

- You want to hear?
- Yup.

Thanks.

Today is Eru's one
year death anniversary.

It feels like God
wanted us to think of Eru.

It's not god...

It was thanks to strong-arming that
Eru's honor could be recovered.

But...

Besides the reward, we're mean
to take this car too, right?

No, of course I declined, but she said
the car would bring back painful memories.

She's taking the anniversary of Eru's death
as a chance to reorganize her life.

- Death anniversary?
- Yeah it's been one year.

I wonder if she's closing her shop as soon
as her best friend's honor is restored?

Ah.

What is it?

Senkawa-san! Is this the other
reward from Sawako-san?

- I need you to lend me your strength.
- Huh?

I mean, I need you to lend me the
secrets written down in your notebook.

My notebook?

I've got something I need to tell
Sawako Kasaya-san. Do you know where she is?

No, even if you ask me...

Today's the anniversary her
friend's death, right? I have a bad feeling.

Where is it? Where would
she go to remember Eru?

Sawako-san!

Wait! Don't do it.
Please get down.

You've already atoned
for Eru-san's sake.

And despite this, you
still plan to end your life?

Even if I wanted to live,
Eru won't forgive me.

Eru-san doesn't resent you.

How do you know?

Because there was
a message left for you.

Over there.

You understand the meaning
behind the musical notes, don't you?

A.

R, I, G.

A, T, O, U.

S. A. W. A.

Thank you, Sawa.

Before she died, she
had already conveyed this.

This is your best
friend's true feelings

which she
couldn't tell you.

I'm sorry, Sawa.

Thank you.

If you had died,

no one would have
been able to tell you

about Eru san's
true feelings.

From now on,

you have a reason to live.

Eru...

Here you go.

- Mio-chan, you wanna try?
- I'm alright.

Is this the famous
"30 million" lady?

I thought
she'd be ugly.

Wait, how did
you hear about me?

I cannot remember at all.

Ah, did you return the
picture to her like you promised?

Ah, this?

- Yup.
- You're returning it...

This is quite
an ugly picture.

Is this what you
used the picture for?

It looks real,
doesn't it?

I was scared. It looks like
Rachel is the one stabbing him.

Really?

But if you look at it properly,
it seems quite fake, doesn't it?

Huh? This is my best
Photoshop masterpiece so far!

Tochiotome?

Wait a minute please.

What did
you just say?

Did I hear correctly? "Photoshop"?

EH!

Did you really blackmail
me with a fake photo!?

I can't believe
you lied to me.

But you actually did
such a thing, right?

- Is that so?
- Whatever lie or sham people

see as the truth,
eventually becomes the truth.

Exactly.

- Can I put on the tv?
- Yes, go on.

It's Fumo Nitobe!

I rather like this man.

He's a candidate to become
the future prime minister.

How is everyone?
Are you all good?

Master. Nitobe-san has come.

Take a seat.

Todoroki Sensei, you
summoned me?

I will listen to your
story properly.

For the sake of our country, you're
working your body hard, aren't you?

Thank you for
your compliment.

There's been
talks of that

youngster standing out too much.

It's really
just nonsense.

It's just that

If by any chance, you're
behavior seems to bother me

more than the talks
about the youngster, then...

I will be very careful not
to disgrace your name, sensei.

Have you still not heard
back from Mio-san?

I wonder why.

It's just like
someone else.

She's a stubborn child.

I guess there's no
longer anyone to help

the Intimidator.

Why do I feel disappointed?

Is it imprudent of
me to have found

it a little fun
while it lasted?

Yes!

It's been a while.
