This one? Or this one?

Hey Chika-chan, which one's better?

This one.

Isn't it too gaudy?

Then what about the sober one?

Wouldn't that look like an old man?

Well, in the first place you are an old man!

Don't call me an old man!

Look, look, which is better?

Which ever is fine.

Will you be serious? Ah, Jun-kun, which do you think is better?

This one looks more serious.

This one? Ok. Then I'll wear this one.

Chika, can you tie it for me please?

Jun-kun, sorry but if you've got time, could you polish my shoes for me?

Sure.

What a fuss. You're just meeting Yuki's father.

But of course! It's nerve wracking meeting your girlfriend's parents.

On top of that her father's against me seeing her.

Stop boasting!

Yes, sorry. Stop boasting!

Thanks. Well then...

The senbei is wrapped over there.

Just like you to remember, Chika. Thank you.

Careful! They'll break!

Ah sorry.

It's not like you're meeting for the first time.

Shut up!

This ok?

Thanks Jun-kun.

I'll do my best, don't worry!

Coming.

Welcome.

Hi.

Come on in.

Alright.

Umm, does this make me look like an old man?

Too gaudy?

Did you fall down somewhere?

No...

Have a seat.

I will.

My father's changing at the moment.

see.

Which would you like? Cold Japanese tea or English tea?

Whatever your father prefers.

Ah, this is from Iseya, it's well known.

Then I'll make us some Japanese tea.

I'm sorry to bother you when you're so busy.

This is from Iseya.

I'm going to work.

I have something to say to you, Dad.

Dad?

I mean Katase-san.

Excuse me, detectives don't even have days off on Sundays. I'm going.

Sandals.

I'm sorry. I did tell him that you were coming over today.

It's ok, don't worry about. He's a detective, he doesn't even have Sundays off.

If detectives take Sundays off, robbers would be in business.

Don't worry about it.

He absolutely hates me.

Cheer up.

Yes, there's always a next time.

If only that were true.

But he won't even look at me.

I'll go get dinner ready.

Chika!

Aniki, it'll be alright. It'll work out somehow.

When will that be? Which month, which date, what time, what second will it be alright?

Just trying to say encouraging words like that won't help. It'll have the reverse effect.

That's just the nature of humans.

Sorry.

You don't have to apologize, I'm not blaming you.

What I want to say is that we're all human.

What's wrong?

I'm short 30,000 yen. Hey Chika! Did you take money out to go shopping?

No I didn't.

It's strange.

Didn't you say the same thing too before? Your math is terrible!

I'm sure I added up everything correctly.

Maybe you were too nervous and your mind went blank.

Maybe

This is Shinoda Cycle. We are closed today.

Ah Yuki!

I'm really sorry about today.

Ah no no no. I didn't take it to heart.

What's up?

I get my pay the day after tomorrow.

I was wondering if you'd like to have dinner with me or something.

Really? Of course I'll go!

Eh? Your treat? Thanks!

Yes, yes. I see. I see!

#Japan-TV @irc.aniverse.com

I'm really busy. I can't hang out with you like I used to.

Those that work seriously are different huh!

You're working at that cycle shop over there aren't you?

I don't have any money.

There's a high school girl about our age there too huh?

hear she's called Chika-chan.

Here!

Only 30,000 yen!

Please! I don't have any money! Please!

You're working aren't you?

In any case we'll take it.

Don't take all the vermicelli! Don't take all the udon either!

Why does it matter? There's so much anyway!

Take the plain ones.

I'm back

You're back late.

You must be hungry.

Yeah.

Oh yes. You went to collect payment the other day didn't you?

Did you put all the money back in the cash box?

Yes.

Oh. So I guess I made a mistake adding up.

Here.

Thanks for the food.

Ah, Chika-chan, I have a favor to ask.

Eh? How do you know what I'm going to say?

You want to borrow money right?

Yes, that's right.

Why don't you let Yuki treat you?

You know what I'm thinking too?

But that's not nice. These days there aren't any girls that treat guys on the day they get their pay.

Besides, I can't accept the fact that the girl has to pay for the guy either.

That's why the box in the fridge...

If you're thinking about the cash stashed away, there's none left!

see.

Then things must have went well with Yuiki-chan's father. That's great!

Hiroto!

Hiroto-kun. Want some ginger?

It's said that if one eats more ginger, one becomes forgetful. That's why I said...

It's hot.

I've just had my bath.

Oh, you're becoming to sound more and more like a guest.

I'll pull out the futons.

Hiroto. Sit down.

Hurry up, sit down.

Don't you have something you want to tell me?

What do you intend to do about high school?

About high school?

You intend to graduate from high school don't you?

That high school, makes no difference if I graduate or not.

You idiot! Finish high school!

I will.

But if it's possible I'd like to work here with you.

Here?

Yes, I was thinking that working hard wasn't bad. I realized that there's something I can do.

I see. But I think it's better if you look for a proper job.

When school starts again, I'll speak to your teacher and see if he can find something for you.

Natsuo-san.

Well, if I'm going to look out for you, I'll go all the way.

Yes.

Don't put the futons together!

Why not?

You toss and turn all night and end up on my side.

This is tiring.

Thank you very much, please come again.

Hey, hey.

Are you free today? I've got a favor to ask of you. We're short one girl.

Not today.

You're seeing that guy from the bicycle shop?

He's the one that came storming in here in a rage? Why?

What do you mean why?

Isn't he covered in sweat all the time?

So he's just a substitute.

No he's not.

Then you go Dutch.

No, it's pay day today so I'm paying

Eh? Is that alright?

But he's always the one paying.

I'll pay up, just hurry and mend the punctured tire.

It's just a flat tire!

Ah...

Where's the usual guy that comes?

He's gone on a date. Left me to do all the work.

It looks like a puncture.

That's what I just said. So what are you going to do?

take it back to mend and brink it back to you.

Then hurry up, the sushi will go bad.

Hurry up! Hurry up!

Hello?

Hiroto-kun.

We need more money.

Ah, that.

Do you think 30,000 yen will end things between us?

We're accomplices aren't we?

don't have money.

Isn't it dangerous to ride a bicycle with a flat tire?

How about we put a puncture in you too?

What are you doing Hiroto!

Hiroto!

This place looks expensive.

It's alright, it's my treat tonight.

I'll pay. I don't want you to.

Why not? I'm working too.

I understand but having a women pay is a little...

So you're bothered by appearances huh?

Appearances?

Yes!

I am not showing off.

You are.

Am not. All I said was that I'll pay.

That's still a guy showing off.

W No it's not. It's just a way of showing one's kindness.

Sorry to keep you waiting, would you like to place your order now?

We're still waiting for two more people.

Someone else coming?

Who are they?

Good evening.

I didn't hear about this.

Doesn't matter. Sit down Shogo-san.

No.

You're here already, sit down.

If we hadn't done this you wouldn't meet Natsuo.

That's why...

Never mind. Let's have a toast!

Excuse me, two more beers please.

Go ahead and sit down.

Sorry to have intruded the other day when you were so busy.

It's alright.

I'm very sorry.

Doesn't matter.

That's very delicious looking kim-chee. Is it alright if I start?

It looks delicious.

I heard that Yukari-chan's doing well. I managed to speak to her a little the other day on the phone.

Really?

Everyone's making a thousand origami cranes and praying that everything goes smoothly.

Then the next time we go, we'll make some too.

Natsuo's very popular with the children.

The kim-chee looks delicious.

Ah, it's here. Thank you.

Let's have a toast. Here. Cheers!

Shogo-san.

Dad.

First I have to apologize.

promised Katase-san that

I wouldn't see Yuki anymore and yet...

I'll be really careful of Yuki's condition from now on.

I won't take her diving either.

I think that it's your fault that Yuki didn't want to undergo the surgery.

But made the decision.

But it's only after you started seeing this guy.

That's why you didn't even discuss it with me. Just did as you wished and turned down the offer of going to America.

That's why you should have gone for the surgery.

Seiji-kun tried his best to put you up as a candidate for the surgery.

know I owe Seiji-san an apology.

But I still think I did the right thing

If I had gone to America, I would have regretted it for the rest of my life.

Shogo-san, there's still the possibility of Yuki having the surgery in Japan.

There's no guarantee of that.

If anything happens to my daughter, HI never forgive you.

Remember that.

Dad, I'm sorry.

I understand your feelings for Yuki.

That's why I'm really sorry.

I will be careful of Yuki's condition.

So please, let us see each other. Please!

Please! I'm sorry.

Go to Aobai-gaidou.

You took the money the other time too.

Didn't you?

I'm sorry. I haven't been able to break off with them so...

Hiroto!

know! Hiroto!

I was stupid and I really regret it.

What's done is done.

But they said you had to hand over more money didn't they?

Let's discuss it with oni-chan.

Don't tell him!

Natsuo's been so concerned about me and yet I did this.

pay back the money you took.

Isn't that your tuition fee for the autumn term?

It's alright. Even if I don't go, can study on my own.

Jun.

It's better not to tell Aniki.

He's finally thought better of Hiroto too.

Hiroto, from now on, don't give them any more money.

Yes, if you don't stop now, it'll never end.

But you don't know what they're going to do.

Don't give in!

I'll stay with you. No matter what they say, don't listen to them.

Hiroto.

understand.

Hey! What are you doing! Stop!

For Heaven's sake! This was expensive!

What's this? Damn it.

What happened?

Someone threw a brick in.

I'll sweep up.

Hold it like that and pick it up. Slowly.

You're getting the hang of it.

Welcome.

Hello.

Mom.

He's doing his best

working over here in the store everyday.

I see.

Hiroto, come and sit down over here.

It's ok. This needs to be done in a hurry.

do it. You go talk with your mother.

It's alright.

Seeing Hiroto working hard, I feel relieved.

Oh.

Here.

Thank you. Chika, how's the baby?

Everything's fine. I'll be getting the medical and welfare record book next month.

That's good. I would like to get everything settled properly but my husband is still... I'm sorry.

It's ok, everything's fine.

If it's ok, please ask your husband to come see Hiroto too.

If he sees Hiroto now, he might change his mind.

He's stopped hanging around with bad company too.

Thank you for taking all the trouble

No, no. We've only done what we can.

I'd be grateful for your support. Wow, is this fruit jelly?

I can use this just as it is...

I'm off to volunteer at the hospital.

Jun, go ahead and have dinner.

Hiroto, time to call it a day.

Hello, this is Shinoda Cycle.

A prank? Well, I'm off.

Have a safe trip.

This is Shinoda Cycle.

But I said I didn't have money. Please, stop doing this.

Stop this nonsense! We're not giving you any more money!

The window last night. It was them after all.

That's three you've folded. That's great!

So, how's your Dad?

We haven't really spent much time together. Besides, we've got nothing to say.

never thought he'd refuse to even try to understand.

Your father's really worried about you.

know.

It doesn't bother me.

But, to say that if anything happens to me it's all your fault, that's really too much.

Don't talk bad about your father just because of me. If you do that, it'll bother me.

wait.

I'll wait until your father understandsOni-chan, come play!

Oni-chan, come play!

Katase-san, call for you.

Excuse me.

Hello?

Yuki-chan? It's me.

Ah, Seiji-san.

Yukari-chan's surgery's all planned, it'll start in about 5 hours.

That's great. Seiji-san, all the best.

Excuse me Seiji, I need to know Yukari's height, weight, and heart size.

2 feet and 6 inches tall and 16 kilograms in weight.

Thanks. She has a nice body doesn't she?

Yes, I know.

Hello? Sorry.

This surgery will definitely succeed. This is also for your sake.

My sake?

Yes. Your turn's next. I said so before didn't I?

That I became a doctor to find a cure for you, not because I wanted to take over my father's hospital.

Don't do anything reckless.

Don't do anything reckless before I come back.

Alright.

Because I love you, Yuki.

Dinner's ready!

I'll put this on the table.

Please. I'll put this on the table.

Hiroto! Dinner's ready!

I'll just finish up and come over.

Yo Hiroto! We came to get money from you.

You.

Leave! We don't have any money!

Then let's look around.

What are you doing!

Hiroto!

I've already said that I won't give you any more money.

Well that's a problem for us if you decide that.

No matter what you do I won't give any to you!

Calling the police?

Let me go!

Leave her alone!

Haven't seen you in a while and you've changed.

Hiroto! Stop it!

Stop it! Hiroto! Stop it!

Stop it!

Go ahead and beat me up!

This store's been renovated beautifully.

I wonder what's going to happen to it now.

Stop it!

It's got nothing to do with him! Beat me up!

Then we will!

Hiroto. I won't ever allow you to leave us.

We've got an event planned for tomorrow. If you don't have money then come with us.

We're friends aren't we?

Hiroto.

We'll meet at that pachinko parlor.

Do you understand?

Hey! What are you doing!

Stop it!

Then what's your answer?

Alright.

I'm back.

What happened? Who beat you up?

Hiroto!

The guys I used to hang out with came by.

Didn't you break off with them?

They said they wanted money if he wanted to break off with them.

So you gave them money?

I'm asking Hiroto!

I did once.

How much?

It doesn't matter.

How much!

30,000 yen.

So it was the missing 30,000 yen.

Natsuo-san! I'm very sorry!

Sorry, oni-chan!

Hiroto's really sorry for what he's done.

The both of you knew about it all along huh?

Why didn't you talk to me about it?

It's all my fault Natsuo-san! I asked both Jun and Chika to keep it from you.

It's all my fault!

Why did you do that!

I did it. Those thefts using the bikes.

They used that to threaten me.

But Hiroto didn't do it! It was an old lady

and he couldn't bring himself to do it!

That's got nothing to do with it!

I thought that Hiroto had something to do with it.

But living here together, seeing him work so hard,

I believed that Hiroto had changed, that he was alright.

But then you had to steal money from the store.

You didn't change after all. I shouldn't have believed you!

guess I'm a hopeless case after all.

A good for nothing.

My father gave up on me. Natsuo-san helped me and yet...

But I really wanted to break it off with them!

I was serious about starting over!

So you stole money from the store.

Oni-chan!

Aniki! Oni-chan!

This is your answer.

I'm sorry. I didn't know what to do.

Stop behaving like a spoiled brat!

You're always like this! Stop running away!

Listen well. Once you commit a single crime, you have to commit more in order to cover it up!

It all adds up and you end up doing nothing but bad things.

When that happens,

no one on earth will ever believe in you again!

I won't ever believe in you again.

Do what you want.

You can think about what you want to do yourself this time.

Jun!

Sto

Hiroto.

I can't give Natsuo-san any more trouble.

In this case, it's a pentagram.

That's everything for today.

I'm home.

Aniki?

Hiroto?

Chika?

I can't give Natsuo-san any more trouble.

There's an event planned for tomorrow. If you don't have money, then come with us.

Jun-nichan?

You came to give yourself up.

Natsuo-san told me that I had to think for myself.so....

I see

Then tell us exactly what happened.

Alright.

We're taking his statement. He'll be allowed to go home soon.

Is that alright?

It's an attempted offense. On top of that, he came to give himself up.

Thank you very much.

You persuaded him?

No, this was his own decision.

You have the power to change people. Whether's it's him or my daughter.

Since my daughter started seeing you, she's become more cheerful.

Smiles a lot more often too. Even when she smiled before, she looked sad.

But now, I guess she won't smile at me any more.

I'm sorry.

It's alright. It's natural.

You're a good kid. Treat my daughter well.

Yuki looks like she really likes you. That's easy to see.

If I were a normal parent, I'd be very happy to have you as my daughter's boyfriend.

But Natsuo-kun.

Yes?

No matter what, I want my daughter to go on living.

That's why...

understand.

Hiroto.

We might need to ask you some more questions but for today, this is enough.

With this we can carry on investigating the crimes committed by the high school students.

Excuse me.

What?

Actually, there's an event planned for tonight.

Event?

Request for assistance.

Understood.

Hiroto! Hiroto!

Let me go!

Hold it!

I was right after all, that you'd use the back door.

Don't use that.

What, damn it! Do you want to fight or not?

Hiroto.

He's there!.

Where's Hiroto? Where's Hiroto?

Shut up! Where's Hiroto? Where's Hiroto?

I said not to run! Didn't you hear what I said?

I said not to run!

said don't move! God damn it!

Stop it! Stop it! I said don't move! God damn it!

Scoundrel!

I'm back.

How's Hiroto?

It's ok for him to come back, but he's under probation.

That's great.

I made you worry again.

I'm sorry Chika.

Excuse me. That is not allowed in the store.

Where's Jun?

Not back yet.

He went for the summer tuition class didn't he? How long does it take?

Maybe it's Jun.

Hello, this is Shinoda Cycle.

Yes it is.

Jun?

Hey, don't you go losing heart, baby

There's nothing to worry about

Just keep going, as strong as always. Get it on

Yesterday, I was a mess

And you were just striking out

But we had searched for that huge, Oh! Summer time

Yo! Let's taste the summer, beneath the sun...

Smile! More, more!

Yo! Yesterday's mistakes and tomorrows blunders

Scrounge and fuss over them

Yo! Let's be reborn beneath the sun

Let summer come! More, more!

Yo! Let's take our messed up problems

And kiss them bye-bye to the blue sky

It's alright, the world's

still spinning, Oh my shine

Because you'll give me tomorrow
