But I realized...

that I...

That happened unexpectedly.

Are you Tachibana Manpei?

Are you?!

Yes, I am.

You're under arrest for selling military supplies on the black market.

- Under arrest?! - Move.

We know that you did it.

What are you talking about?!

- Don't talk back! - Tachibana-san!

- Take him away. - Please let go of me.

Fukuko-san, this is a mistake. I haven't done anything wrong!

- Shut up! - This is a mistake, Fukuko-san! Let go!

Tachibana-san...

-Let go of me! - Wait! Wait! Tachibana-san!

- Fukuko-san! - Wait...

- Tachibana-san! - Let go! I said let go of me!

I haven't done anything!

What was that all about?

- Why the military police? - They said he sold military supplies on the black market...

- On the black market? - Tachibana-san said he didn't but they dragged him away.

- What? - What's going on!

Saki...

What happened?

I'm sorry. I must have been daydreaming.

You're still thinking about Saki too..

Be careful not to step on the fragments.

I'm sorry.

I can't help thinking about Saki all the time too.

Why did she have to go so soon...

What's yoko nagashi , Mom?

They float lanterns down the river...

Wait, that would be shoro nagashi*.

To pray for the spirit of the deceased...

Is it that bad of a thing to do?

It's not a bad thing.

But that's the thing they do in Nagasaki or somewhere over there...

It has to be some kind of a mistake.

What are you talking about?

Fuku-chan was simply at a loss.

She wanted to believe that what happened in front of her eyes was some kind of a mistake.

But the gravity of the situation was far worse than what Fuku-chan had imagined.

I'll ask you one more time. The man named Katsuragi Konpachi.

I don't know anyone by that name!

That's a lie!

Katsuragi's the one who told us your name.

That he bought duralumin from Tachibana Manpei at Riso Engineering.

That's nonsense! I didn't sell anything on the black market!

You! You sold it on the black market knowing that it was a military-regulated item, didn't you!

East Osaka Detachment Squad Sergeant

HARA KENZABURO

Let me talk to that person! Where is he!

Katsuragi is no longer here. He committed suicide.

East Osaka Detachment Squad

MURASHIRO KEIJI

Suicide?

How much did you get for the duralumin?

I don't know!

Selling military supplies on the black market is a serious crime!

I am going to ask you to marry me.

I...like you!

Good morning.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Morning.

Oh...Good morning.

Noro-san and Maki-san both told me they like me.

Both of them asked me to marry them.

I have no idea what's going on.

I think it's something that's very likely to happen to Hoshina-san.

- Imai-san. - Well, first of all, you're pretty.

Didn't I tell you? I've never gone out with men.

I don't know what to do when I'm told something like that out of the blue.

- I don't know what to do either. - My problem is serious.

Mine is too. I can't ask my mother for advice about something like this.

- Don't lump mine together with yours. - I thought Hoshina-san would...

I thought Imai-san would understand.

- The truth is, Tachibana-san was... - Forget it.

What~!

The military police came after that yesterday and

took everything including stock lists and accounting books.

What a mess this has turned out to be.

What did Tachibana-san do?

Duralumin, which is an item controlled by the Army, was found in a warehouse in Port of Osaka.

The black market agent who was caught testified that he bought it from Tachibana.

Duralumin is material used for the root crop cutting machine that we supply to the Army.

He was secretly selling that off to a black market agent behind my back!

Do you really believe that?

The military police said they've investigated the matter.

What is there to not believe?

Why would Tachibana-san...

Money, of course. He did it for money.

That can't be...

I just want to do work that would be useful to the world.

I want to do work that would make people happy.

There's no way he would do something like that!

I don't have time to be talking about this.

I have a million things to do to rebuild the company.

Did you see Tachibana-san? Did you have a chance to talk directly to...

It's not that easy to see a guy who's been captured by the military police!

Do you really think Tachibana-san did it?

I don't want to believe it either!

Imai-san. You know that dentist named Maki, don't you?

He was your sister's acquaintance, right?

I'm a cook at a hotel. My rival in love is a dentist. Do I even have a chance?

What is Hoshina-san looking for in a man...

What should I do...

Open your mouth.

The military police came to raid a nearby company, Sensei.

- I'm going to grind down your cavity. - And one of their employees got arrested.

I don't know the reason, but once he's taken by the military police,

- it's all over for him. - Just open your mouth.

I'm scared...

Fukuko?

She's been out of it lately.

She broke a bowl, wore her right shoe on her left foot.

- I win! - Good for you~.

Sometimes I don't know what she's talking about.

- What do you mean? - She can't let go of Saki.

She hasn't recovered yet.

Fuku-chan really loved Saki Nee-san.

It's probably hard for her to sort out her feelings.

I'm lucky I have my kids to comfort me.

Maybe it's not a good thing for her to be alone with Mother.

There's nothing we can do about that...

You have Room 201, sir.

Please show him to his room.

- Thank you. - I'll show you to your room, sir.

Enjoy your stay.

Fuku-chan.

Toshi-chan, Hana-chan, what are you doing here?

Both of us got off work early today.

So we decided to come see you.

What time are you off today?

Why don't we go eat something if you can get off early?

What? Are you all right?

Fuku-chan? What's wrong?

- By the military police? - Tachibana-san was taken away?

For selling duralumin on the black market.

- Duralumin? - ...what's that?

An item controlled by the Army.

But there's just no way Tachibana-san would do such a thing!

- Wait a minute, Fuku-chan! - That's nothing but a lie!

Why are you so worried about Tachibana-san?

That's right.

That's because...

What?

Are you perhaps dating Tachibana-san?

What! Is that true, Fuku-chan?

He asked me to marry him in the future.

What!

I said all right.

What~!

But we found out about Saki Nee-chan's sickness and when she passed away...

I had it in my mind that I shouldn't be happy, but

Shinichi-san...Saki Nee-chan's husband told me

that if someone who means a lot to me is there alive and well,

don't easily let him go.

I went to see Tachibana-san on my own.

Then right before my eyes...

...right before my eyes, he was dragged away by the military police.

- Don't cry, Fuku-chan. - I don't really know what's going on, but

it sounds like you've been going through a lot by yourself.

Help me~ Toshi-chan, Hana-chan...

We'll get down even harder on you tomorrow.

They sure did a job on you.

I'm...innocent.

INAMURA DAIGO

Guys who say that are the worst criminals.

Right?

But it's true...

I haven't done anything...

Fuku-chan...

Don't cry.

Tachibana-san...

Naturally, there was nothing

Toshi-chan or Hana-chan or even Fuku-chan could do to help Manpei-san.
