Here's your frankfurter.

Thank you for waiting. -Thank you.

[Translation and correction by Sera & Max]

How about hot dogs? -They're delicious!

-One hot dog please. -Coming right up.

[Times by Max]

Komatsubara. Everything's set.

Wada...

Awaiting orders.

Yanagi..

Standing by.

Kirishima. OK.

Hanamori Ichiko. Here.

Shigemura here, roger.

We're looking for a guy with gray hair and beard.

Everyone, be alert.

Keep your eyes wide open.

Eyes wide open?

Welcome.

1 hotdog please.

Yes,it's 350 yen.

What's next?

Here you go... Toy poodle.

Shige-san. Someone just arrived.

Be alert.

Stay focused.

What is she doing?

Hey, Wanko! What are you doing?

I'm arresting this man.

Huh!?

You can't just arrest anyone you like.

Idiot!

You're Hashimoto Taro, aren't you?

Woah!

Hashimoto!

You bastard!!

Do it!

Go for it..go,go,go!

Get him!

It's now or never! Good luck!

You bastard!

Alright! Amazing!!

Yaay! Whoo!

Nice play!!!

Deka Wanko

Cheers for a job well done!

Episode 3 "Operation: Lovey-Dovey Newlyweds"

Cheers!

So good!

Hanamori, I mean, Wanko

That was quite an achievement!

Hey, how did you know that man was Hashimoto?

The smell.

That 'smell' again.

Don't you mean detective's intuition?

No, seriously.

I found out through the smell.

If only you quit wearing those silly clothes.

"Silly?" Huh?... oh, oh.

Boss... boss boss.

Is this dress cute?

You know... this headband look.

This is really anoying.

Is this really Division One?

She's making this seem like a circus.

I can't stand her even for a bit.

Hey, what's eating you?

Huh?

An ideal trait of a detective is that he is worthy.

Wanko did a good job today.

Wanko! Well done!

Oh, wow!

Everyone, from now on...

Please call me *Deka Wanko*.

*Detective Wanko*

You're too loud.

She's drunk...

So childish...

Let's eat.

How do you knew he was Hashimoto?

I've already told you...

through the smell.

We can catch him easily, even without your nose, you know.

Kiri-san

What?

Please don't feel bad.

You'll have your chance next time, Kiri-san.

You little...

Don't mind. Don't mind.

Ha! Getting picked on by a rookie.

Why you...

Do it! Do it!

Hey hey hey!

Here they go again!

You're ruining my meal!

Delicious!

Feels so nice.

Ichiko-chan?

Hmm... want to sleep more.

Ichiko-chan!

It's my day-off... I'm staying home.

There are visitors!!

For me?

They're actually for Grandpa.

Hmm...

I see. You're just 16 years old.

Yes.

Commissioner!?

Hello! I see you're up already.

Uh, yes.

Um...

You and Grandpa knew each other?

Yes.

Yeah. We know each other from a long time.

Allow me. -Go on.

This orange is delicious.

Huh?

Ah! "Rock-Paper-Scissors!"

"Rock-Paper-Scissors!"

Koma-san's niece!

Yes, I am Alisa, nice to meet you!

Huh?

Asari-chan...

From now on...

She has no job nor place to stay.

It's "Alisa."

Oh, is that so?

Yamada-sama, I'll leave her in your care.

How did you two get to know each other?

Oh, your phone's ringing.

Ah...

OK. Yes.

Thanks, Patrasche.

Yes, Hello?

Emergency meeting?

I'll be right there!

It's somewhere around here...

Here it is.

"Shinagawa Restaurant Robbery-Murder Case."

Do routine questioning around the area.

Koma-san, what's going on?

A crime took place early in the morning.

We're still gathering results.

Kiri will brief you with the details.

Ok.

Two men broke inside a restaurant in Shinagawa.

They stole 200 million yen in cash.

A clerk was seriously injured from stab wounds.

The clerk died right away after the incident.

We're still looking into the matter. That's it.

"The two men fled in a car?"

Did you send out Mikhail?

Huh? Yeah, we did.

Boss!

Yeah?

We caught one of the criminals.

Oh!

Guess we'll go home early. -Yes.

Did Mikhail sniff him out?

Yeah.

He beat me to it.

How about his accomplice?

We're still looking for him.

Alright! It's up to Shige-san's interrogation skills now.

Yes.

I got framed!

That guy escaped with the money!

What's the name of that guy? ...You forgot?

Why suddenly so quiet now?

Take a look at this man.

His name is Saito Nobu-san.

Just this morning...

he passed away.

Nanmaida Nanmaida (Buddhist Chanting)

It wasn't me!

I didn't stab him!

Hey, settle down! Stop it! Relax!

Nanmaida Nanmaida...

What?

He's here...

I can see him.

Nanmaida Nanmaida...

What the hell?

He's here...

Nanmaida Nanmaida...

Noooo!!

Saito-san! Saito-san!

Nanmaida Nanmaida...

We got some results.

As expected of Shige-san!

His accomplice is Nakamura Kenichi.

They met at a mahjong parlor in Shunjiki.

He worked as a real estate agent.

He's also divorced.

He has one daughter.

The ex-wife has custody.

He has a girlfriend working as a hostess

in the nightlife district.

I'll send a photo of the suspect as soon as it's available.

So..

Here's the girlfriend's address.

The address of Nakamura's part-time work.

And his ex-wife's home address.

Split up the work and inform me of any news.

We're off. Yana.

Yeah.

Ex-wife's house, huh?

We'll check the workplace.

Hey, Deiku.

Koma-san, I told you, it's Duke.

Shut up, so annoying.

This means... I'm doing this!?

Any problem with that?

No.

-Wanko. -Yes.

Kiri. -Yes.

Shige-san.

Yes.

Kiri-san, hurry, let's go.

Don't act like you're above me!

What's wrong?

We're on a case, a case!

So annoying, acting so bossy...

You're saying something?

Shut up!

Huh?

Is Nakamura Kenichi here?

He hasn't come back since yesterday.

What's this about?

Oh, well...

Nakamura Kenichi...

His work starts at 2 pm.

2 pm. I see. Got it.

We'll be back.

What's going on?

Nothing much.

But I'm still keeping an eye out.

They sent the picture of Nakamura.

He's 165 cm tall.

With a slender build.

Kiri-san, someone's coming.

I knew it. It's his ex-wife.

Maybe Nakamura will show up.

Weren't you listening?

Nakamura has a girlfriend.

Why would he show up at his ex-wife's place?

Don't be so pessimistic.

I'm just being realistic.

I'll get it ready.

Huh?

"Ready?"

He didn't show up after all.

Dammit!

-Woah! Oh, my God!

Yeah, what's up?

It's Kirishima.

Not much happening here.

How about over there?

Just do your work and don't bother me!

See you later.

That's the daughter.

Let's go, Carl.

Kiri-san, you shouldn't do that, sleeping at work.

Shut up! Where did you go?

Setting... is complete. -Huh?

Come on in.

This was what you were preparing? -Yes.

I decorated it myself. Isn't it cute?

What is this?

We're undercover newly-weds.

This is our setting.

Look, rabu-rabu!

["lovey-dovey"]

"Rabu-rabu?"

We don't look alike

so we can't pretend to be siblings.

It's easier if we say we're married.

I'm outta here.

Wait, wait... wait a minute!

-what the hell now?

-Please look.

Kiri-san, we're definitely gonna catch him.

It's fine but..

I don't know if the boss will allow this.

Yes, I got the receipt.

Rent is 68,000 yen.

Plus furniture rental fee

...53,000 yen.

What the hell is this?!

Expenses for the stake-out!

You fool!! Why the hell

would we pay for this receipt!!

-But, sir... -No "buts"!!

Working while spending less money

is an ideal trait of an excellent detective!

But, sir!

-I said, no 'buts!" -Boss.

I'm sure Wanko will be able to sniff the suspect out.

What? Koma-san...

You think so?

I KNOW she will.

Dammit Wanko!

You better catch the culprit!

Or else I'll deduct this from your salary!!

Yeeees.

Hey, Wanko?

Yes.

Thanks for taking care of Alisa.

No problem. She's quite nice.

Is that so?

I'm off now.

Koma, how was your stake-out?

The suspect did not show up.

He could be in hiding now.

Hmmm... Mmm.. Mmm!

Yes, I understand.

-Alisa-chan. -Yes?

We'll be out for a few days.

So please take care of grandma and grandpa for a while.

I understand. -Ok.

Ichiko-chan, where are you going?

It's a secret investigation.

Be back soon!

Take care!

Hey, dear. What's her secret about?

I guess she might have a boyfriend, right?

So she's boarding a plane, right?

[Note: the Grandpa misheard what the Grandma said]

It's your first time here...

So many new smells.

So cute!

You think so?

What's his name?

Huh? His name's Patrasche.

He's a male dog.

Wow.

My dog's name is Carl.

'Detective dog Carl'...

So cool!

Detective?

Huh? Uh, nothing.

Onee-san, are you visiting here?

No, I recently moved here.

I'm still not familiar with the area.

Can you show me around?

Sure.

Let's go for a walk together.

Ok!

what do you do for a living, Onee-san?

Huh? I'm uh... 'mangaka?'

['cartoonist']

Oh, I like that!

Really?

What a frilly cute skirt!

Looks nice, right?

So then...

I was out doing patrols...

Difficult.

That girl...

This is my home.

I see.

Well, see you arround.

See you, bye bye.

Carl, Let's go.

I'm home.

What was that about?

-Oh, this is my dog Patrasche.. -Not that!

Why were you talking with the suspect's daughter?

Oh, I didn't plan that.

I don't think you're capable of planning anything.

No, but it was good.

I learned something from it.

What?

Tomorrow, the suspect might show up here.

Huh?

Ryoko-chan said that Carl-kun

was from her dad, it was given to her.

As a birthday present last year.

Her mom gave it to her but didn't say it came from the dad.

Ryoko-chan wanted a miniature dachshund.

And her dad knew about that.

So that was the dog that she received.

So her father is behind it.

-Yes. -Well...

Why would he meet with them tomorrow?

Ehm...

Ah, that's it..

Because it's Ryoko-chan's birthday!

Surely, the suspect will come

and give Ryoko-chan his gift.

-A fugitive wouldn't

easily show up just to give a gift.

Yes, maybe...

It seems like he will!

He can't miss his chance to give her the present, right?

Maybe he'll come tonight...

Huh?

It would be more noticeable during the day.

Right.

I'll call for back-up.

There's no need.

But...

An ideal trait of a detective is that he is worthy.

They're going to sleep now.

What's with that snoring?

Hey!

Yes...

Any movement?

They're sleeping now.

I'm going to the store.

Ok. We'll switch now.

I bought some "nikuman."

[nikuman - steamed pork bun]

Wow...

Thanks for the food!

What are you doing, that's mine.

I gave you yours!

No... it smells weird.

What? I just bought it, it's new.

It smells funny.

Give me that. -No no no no..

Quit fooling around!

It smells fine!

Oh dear. You'll get a stomach ache...

I'm sure of it... -Mmm...Yum!

See? I told you so.

I'm fine now!

Ugh... I can't...

Serves you right.

She's going out with Carl!

I'm going now!

Call me right away if something comes up.

Okay.

Ohhh...

Good morning.

Good morning.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

How's your party?

Some friends will be coming over.

Wow, that's great.

Ryoko-chan

Something smells good.

Maybe it's my mom's perfume?

Because she will go out today.

She'll be meeting with someone?

She'll buy stuff

for my birthday party.

Oh, I see.

I bet it's gonna be a fun party.

Carl, wait for me.

Ryoko-chan's mom

will likely meet up with the suspect.

You smelled her perfume?

Yes, Ryoko's smell today

and yesterday were different.

I guess that nose of yours

can really be effective.

Ugh...

The present last year

was sent through the mother.

If we could tail the mom, we can get to the fugitive.

Yeah.

Kiri-san, the mother is leaving!

Please hurry!

OK...

You think she'll meet with him somewhere?

Just make sure she doesn't notice us.

Ughh...

Are you ok?

I think we should call for back-uo.

-No, I want to arrest him on my own.

But...

Ryoko-chan loves her Dad.

-So what.

I feel sorry for Ryoko-chan.

You feel sorry for being a detective?

But...

Should detectives let criminals go?

No.

Come on.

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.

It's Nakamura.

Let's move closer without being noticed.

Yes.

What the heck are you blushing for?

Let's go.

How are you?

Hmm.

How's Ryoko?

She's energetic as always.

I see...

Stop! This is the police!

Nakamura!

Nakamura, stop!

Nakamura, don't move!

Let me go!

Ouch, my leg...

I said stop!

Ugh... dammit!

My leg..

My leg! I think it's broken!

You idiots! I could just fire you...

and send you to Hokkaido!!!

I tripped... -Shut up!!

You let the criminal get away

because you didn't call Section 13 for back-up!

Sprain! Stomach aches!

So many goddamn excuses!

Both of you are on indefinite suspension!

But Boss! -Shut up!!

I'm going back to headquarters.

Thanks for the work.

That's what you get, guys, for not asking for our help.

-We apologize for any inconvenience.

-Let's go.

At least you get to have a vacation.

Don't worry about the culprit, we'll catch him for you.

It's very cold in Hokkaido at this time.

So much for ideal traits.

Confined at home...

What a big blunder, huh?

I wonder if I'll be transferred to Abashiri?

[T/N: Abashiri - a city in Hokkaido]

If it's Hakodate I hope we'll keep in touch.

[T/N: Hakodate - a city in Hokkaido]

Ichiko, you're a public employee of the city.

If you get transferred, it'll be just within the jurisdiction of Tokyo.

Oh, really?

Thank God!

But you could be transferred to Hachijojima and Ogasawara since they're part of Tokyo, too.

[Hachiojima and Ogasawara are islands located hundreds of kms south of Tokyo]

Huh?

For example, Ogasawara is only accessible by boat.

It could take more than 24 hours if

you travel by boat.

See?

So far...

But Kotomi, no matter what

You'll still come over?

Please? Please?

What are friends for, they say.

But for a friend you sure ask for too much!

Don't be like that!

Ichiko-san, you have a visitor.

Huh? Is it the Commissioner?

Koma-san! Yana-san!

Yo.

Are you OK?

Yes, I'm fine.

Get out of the way!

Ouch!

Hello!

Hi.

You're from the Transportation Bureau.

Yes, I'm Aoki Kotomi.

You're Komatsubara-san, aren't you?

-Ah, yeah.

I hear a lot about you

That you've solved a lot of cases - so cool!

Ah, is that so.

Hey!

I work on the same cases, too.

Yes?

Ohh!

I'm the Ace Detective of Section 13,

Yanagi Seishiro.

Uh... nice to meet you.

Too close...

Sorry for waiting!

Doing a good job here?

Of course.

You idiot! Why'd you let Kotomi-chan go?

Huh? What?

You see, your huge friend

is his type of woman.

Please don't say that out loud, Koma-san.

-Stop that, so annoying...

You're making me blush!

Hey, Koma-san.

When can I go back to work?

You're still on the first day of your suspension.

Besides, your injury hasn't fully healed yet.

Who is continuing the surveillance

at Nakamura's house?

No one.

He'll likely show up at his girlfriend's place.

But I'm sure Nakamura

will go see his wife again.

Please resume the surveillance immediately.

It's not likely possible.

But his daughter Ryoko Nakamura

still hasn't gotten her present yet.

I don't think he would do the same thing again.

If it was me...

I will do anything...

to see my kid again.

The fugitive...

And Yana-san both knows how it feels.

Yana, don't you get to see your son often?

Don't cry.

-Yana, I'm sorry.

-Don't cry.

Grandpa, why is he crying?

Your "monjayaki" must taste so good, he's crying!

[monjayaki - a type of okonomiyaki or Japanese pancake]

By the way...

You think if we watch the daughter,

there's a chance we can catch him?

Yes, yes.

So, he'll be arrested in front his kid?

There's no choice.

That's cruel!

Don't you feel sorry for the kid?

Yana,

the victim Saito-san also had two kids.

Criminals may also have families...

But if this is the only chance, we take it.

That's the way detectives work for years.

Yes.

Well...

If we could avoid such a situation...

What's up, Shige?

The stolen money was sent back.

What?

The 200 million was sent back?

Yes.

Fingerprints had been left in an envelope

and they match those of Kenichi Nakamura.

What does it mean?

Hey.

Sit down.

Someone stabbed the clerk Saito-san

If Nakamura-san didn't do it..

You did.

It wasn't me!

I see.

If you don't tell me..

Maybe Saito-san will..

His soul is not at peace.

Nanmaida Nanmaida...

Nanmaida Nanmaida.

Okada!

...Please let me go to another room.

-Wait, wait...

Can you excuse us, please.

Yes.

Wait!

Don't leave me here...

I beg of you!!

Kiri, you're suspended. What are you doing here?

Please give me another chance to solve this case.

You know I can't allow it.

What that hell is with this room? So girly.

Even though the suspect is not showing up

he still would want to see his daughter.

You think that, too?

I know the suspect will come to see Ryoko-chan.

I heard about that.

Just go back home and let us do the work.

-By the way, Kiri. Nakamura didn't kill the clerk.

Okada admitted he did it.

Good morning!

Good morning!

Ow! Ouch!

It seems it's not healing quickly.

Patrasche,

I wonder how Ryoko-chan is doing.

Yes, this is Ichiko.

I heard on the radio that Nakamura's car had been found.

Where?

Got it. Thank you for telling me.

I must bear the pain!

How is it?

Forensic work's almost done.

Koma-san!

Please, let me help investigate.

Go home, Kiri.

Please!

Koma-san!

Please, let me join the investigation too.

No way.

Both of you go home.

Chanko-san, please...

Please, Koma-san...

No, go home.

Mikhail.

Mikhail...

Please.

Yes, search!

Mikhail, sniff!

Alright! Yana, Deiku, go with Mikhail.

-OK.

It's "Duke." -Shut up!

Alright. Go ask people around the area.

You got it? Alright, let's go!

Alright, Mikhail. Track him.

Kiri-san...

Wanko, come.

Sniff!

Yes!

Over there!

The same direction where Mikhail went.

Kiri-san!

Hurry, get on!

Eh? Are you sure?

It's the only way.

This is real partnership, isn't it?

Damn, you're heavy!

Please hurry!

Suddenly, you're 'above me' - how ironic!

Go straight. -Ok.

Here, left turn. -Ok.

We've caught up with them.

What's wrong, Mikhail?

It seems he has lost the track of the smell.

What're you doing?

I told you to go back!

Get outta here!

What is it?

The smell..

Is gone.

Damn.

Over there!

You smelled it?

Please hurry!

Hey hey hey!

Why don't you two just go home!

The smell stops right here.

The dog stopped because the smell is gone right?

No smell, no action.

So, what smell are they following?

Here, straight ahead.

Yeah.

Are you ok?

You're amazing...

How Mikhail can't track the smell anymore but you still can.

There was no smell from the criminal.

Huh?

So, what are we chasing now?

I smell Ryoko-chan back at the intersection.

I'm sure she's going to see her dad.

That's why she missed School today.

Stop!

Huh? What is it?

It's there.

No way...

You mean UP there?!!

Ryoko-chan's smell is strong.

She passed through here a moment ago.

Hurry!

Are you okay?

Be quiet, just concentrate.

Kiri-san, you smell strongly of sweat.

Forget about my sweat!

We're close...

Yeah.

Ryoko!

Papa!

It has been a long time. - Yes

Everything's ok?

Yeah.

What should we do?

Of course we'll arrest him.

You mean, the both of us?

We can't lose this chance.

But...

Ryoko-chan is there too.

Are we going to arrest him in front of his child?

Here you go. Happy Birthday.

Thank you, Papa!

How's Carl?

He's great, he weighs 4 kg.

How about Ryoko?

Papa, you can't ask for a girl's weight.

But you look bigger now.

I got taller, I'm 125cm tall now.

I see.

Turn it off now. Quick!

Oh, Onee-chan!

Ah!

Ryoko-chan...

You know her?

Yeah.

They moved here recently.

I heard they're newly-weds.

I see.

Come, Papa.

Uh, Ok.

What do we do?

Just play along.

Onee-chan, this is my Dad.

Oh, what happened to your foot?

Oh, it's nothing.

Your daughter made my

wife feel at home in this neighborhood.

Thank you for that.

I'd like to make friends, too.

So we're going around, making friends with the neighbors.

Sorry, little girl

My wife needs to rest her foot. Can you sit with her for awhile?

It's ok.

Let's go.

Yes.

Is your foot going to be ok?

Yes, thanks.

Please, don't plan on making trouble.

I know you don't want Ryoko-chan see you get arrested.

Oh! It's a necklace and a hat!

So it is.

How do I look, Onee-chan?

You look pretty.

-Really? -Yes.

Thank you.

Papa!

The hat is so warm... Thank you!

Ryoko.

You want to go and eat oshiruko?

[Oshiruko - sweet red bean soup]

Yeah!

You both want to come with us?

We'd love to...

But we're going to the shrine.

See you later.

Bye!

Let's go. -Ok.

The hat is nice.

You like the color? -Yes.

He promised he'll surrender.

Not sure if I believe him.

For sure he will.

And how the hell would you know that?

Because Nakamura is not a liar.

And did your nose tell you that?

No

It's detective's intuition.

Well, I say...

You're 100 years early to act so cocky!

Huh? Wait a moment... Kiri-san!

Now what?

This!

Get on.

Ready... up.

You're so darn heavy!

-Let's go home! -I Know!!

Nakamura-san fulfilled his promise, and surrendered.

-I see... that was a good ending, eh? -Yes.

An ideal trait of a detective is that he is worthy, right?

But these traits may differ in every jurisdiction...

So it is natural to look up to your seniors for guidance.

Some say 'Better to catch a man stealing in the middle...

than when he steals over you.'

-That's wrong. -I know.

Before I thought, a tough scary cop makes an ideal detective.

Now I guess the ideal trait that matters is the one that you make as your own.

Gara-san.

Please come back soon.

Let's work together again.

I committed a crime.

I can't go back to being a detective.

Nakamura Kenichi has met with the prosecutors at the district court earlier.

Thanks for the hard work.

Everyone did a great job!

Thank you very much!

Especially those two over there!

Huh? Us?

He's being sarcastic.

For really working so hard...

Maybe I'll transfer you to Ogasawara.

-But Boss, Kiri-san did his best. -Wanko!

Be quiet.

But...

Boss, let me pay for the stake-out expenses.

Don't make me laugh.

No need! The accounting department approved it.

-What!?

Good job!

Eh? What's this? What's this?

Hey you two.. Something happened, right?

You guys "rabu-rabu?"

-Shut up, Duke!

Woah! Low low low!

Why're you acting suspicious?

Was there some action at the stake-out?

Nothing happened!

You... say something!

What the hell?

Kiri-san's scent

It's the smell of a detective!

Huh?

What does that even mean?

"Smell of a detective."

He's 100 years too early to be called that!

Yeah! Let's go for a drink!

Dutch treat today!

Wait for me!

Today, I'll drink, too!
