I am home.
Ah, he is my sister's kid and not mine!
I stole this secretly.
You stole the drop, didn't you?
Huh? I didn't.
Hum? Eh? Why do you...?
Don't you know? Totally awesome.
Liar!!
It's a lie!!
It's not a lie.
Perhaps, did you also eat that yesterday?
Hum? Yeah, I did.
Liar!
I said it's not a lie!
Hey! What are you doing?
Natsuki-chan, what's the matter?
That guy could be the Goggle-Z Number 2.
If so, his costume must be in this room.
Don't mess up someone else's room!
Hey!! You are getting carried away.
I won't be able to put up with you anymore.
Hey! Do you hear me?
Too close! What the?
It can't be true. It's totally a lie!!
What was that?
Shouldn't we tell him about Google-Z number 2 being Kuzumi Kenta because of the drop?
I will let him know myself later on.
We need to investigate the effect of a long time use on a human body first.
I don't think you could solve the misunderstanding by my explanation.
It will be!
If you said “Uncle Kenta is taking care of me. He is a very nice uncle.”
Then, Mari-san would believe it.
I don't want to lie.
What is a lie?
Because you are not a nice uncle.
You don't clean, you don't do laundry, and you don't cook.
This is a lion method of raising a kid!
You steal my drops, too.
So, I said I didn't steal it!
You could discuss with me if you were short of money.
Did you understand what I've said?
You must be more cautious. You never know who is watching you.
What do you mean by that?
Natsuki-chan almost found out.
Found out?
That guy can't be the Number 2. I must verify.
What an idiot. He is totally being a love-struck.
In any case, it can't be him!
In fact, this brat.... This child wants to say something to Shirai-san really badly.
To me?
Yes.
Well, you are being shy, aren't you?
You can order anything you want. So, please.
Uncle Kenta is taking care of me and really….
Is Uncle.
What do you mean by a “really uncle”? Shouldn't it be a “Nice uncle”?
Hum, is Kuzumi-san really your uncle?
Yes, he is. That's true.
It is true!
I am sorry for being suspicious.
Ah, it's my fault. I made Shirai-san anxious.
You don't need to worry about anything!
Why am I paying?
It's important to help each other!
Ugh, get a job!
I don't have that much money either.
Yes, yes. I got it. You can go home now.
I need to escort Mari-san to her place.
Ah!! Before that, give me the drop! A purple one.
Why?
Don't make me tell you more than that.
So, if I went inside of her room, then had some tea, then, if….
What are you talking about?
Well, doesn't have to be a purple.
I want my sense to be very sensitive.
Hey! Didn't you tell me to discuss? Give it!
I don't have it with me.
Really?
Don't you have it somewhere like in your pocket?
Hey! Purse-snatcher!!
Not me!
Help me!!
There, drop.
Bye.
What! You had it!
There is a purse-snatcher.
Kuzumi-san, don't you have to go?
Eh? Um, but I….
Isn't it your job?
I will go help someone in need.
Somebody! Ugh…
Are you OK? Bastard.
A guy snatched my white handbag.
That way!!
Hey! Where are you going?
I don't have my costume. But, oh well.
Ah! What was this?
That bastard must have run fast.
Hey, purse-snatcher bastard!
Nobo?
Kuzuken?
What are you doing?
Former field and track Ace shouldn't be using your legs for this kind of gig.
I am no longer an Ace.
Because of that stupid coach.
What's with you? Being scary.
I don't know what had happened.
But doing purse-snatching for retaliation is pretty lame.
Lame? Such a scum like you has no right to say that to me!
What?!
You are becoming a biggest scum because of that smoking incident.
No one believed you and no one counted on you!
Don't act big like that!
24th high school field and track championship. Men's 100m First place Kuzumi Kenta
You are magnificent Kenta!
Don't you think Olympic is in your reach?
Olympics? Sis, you are too excited.
Kenta, you can make it for sure!
Sis, I am telling you the truth. I really didn't smoke cigarette.
I know. It will be OK.
How are you disciplining your brother at home?
Smoking inside of campus is unheard of before.
I am really sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
Kuzuken are you there?
Ah! Beer is the best fatigue remedy after all.
Isn't it lukewarm?
If you were tired, why didn't you go home?
Well, detective accumulates a lot of stress.
There is nagging Sanae-san at home.
Life is not easy.
Shuji.
Do you know what Nobo is doing now?
Ah, I heard he joined a corporate sport team.
But rumor said he quit about 1 year ago.
Quit? Why?
In reality, he may have been fired.
He was good at the beginning, but lost his potential later on.
I can't believe that, though.
Aoki Noboru was as fast as a robot, thus his nick name became “Nobo”.
Kuzuken was training by aiming to beat Nobo's record, right?
So, what about Nobo?
Hum? Well, nothing.
This tastes good.
Possibility of rain is 0%. It will be sunny all week…
This was the weather report.
Next segment is “Person of the Week”. Hayasyhi-san!
Hi. “Person of the week” is Coach Yamashita Tetsuo of Sankyo Kasei field and track team.
Coach, could you describe the job of a coach to us?
It is to distinguish athlete's true ability and nurture it to be its maximum.
I see. What is the secret for distinguishing athletes' ability accurately?
It is important to communicate honestly.
I understand. We will interview more about this today.
Hey, it's morning. Kuzuken! Get up.
Ah! Cold! Cold!! What are you doing?
You never get up, right?
I am awake, awake!!
Kuzuken keep tomorrow open.
What? Tomorrow?
It's my mom's death anniversary of the month. Let's go visit her grave.
I'm not going.
Why? Let's go.
Here! You will be late for school!
Starting.
It's totally wrong. No way.
Natsuki-chan! Your break is already over.
Ah, sorry! Ah, Manager. Yes?
Um, about my shift tomorrow….
Natsuki-chan, you've been asking to change your shift too much.
Sorry. I suddenly became busy with my illustration job.
An illustration job?
Yes. Someone I knew found a job for me.
I knew research data said “medicine to promote power”, but I didn't expect to be this remarkable.
It is only for instantaneous, but both physical strength and 5 senses will be 10 times stronger.
I've never seen anything like this even in Chicago.
Pleas analyze the rest as soon as possible.
Yes.
By the way, what is the name of this drug?
I couldn't find it in the research data.
It is called Towmai.
Towmai?
You know about Hokuyo pharmaceutical having a business alliance with American biomedical company PEACE, right?
Hokuyo pharmaceutical's potential was recognized by PEACE and they offered operational support.
Yeah.
But PEACE's real intention is not to develop remedy medication.
Their objective is to develop a drug to strengthen the body for military use.
Military use…?
It's been a long time. What's the matter?
Serizawa-kun. Help me!
I need to discuss something about the drug I have been developing.
So, this Towmai is also for a military use?
Once complete, this drug will bring a huge profit to our company.
To accomplish our objectives, we must assume some sacrifice.
Why did you tell me this?
Despite of Kuzumi-kun, you are a pure scientist with strong analytical mind.
Of course.
I said I didn't want to go to the grave.
Don't say it like that. Take Daichi-kun there!
Take me there.
Why are you collaborating together?
Shuji, you keep quiet and mend your fatigue!
I came here to convince you today.
Because you don't listen to me.
Natsuki-chan seemed to be busy, so….
What Natsuki-chan?
I said I was not going, so I won't go!
You haven't visited your sister's grave even once, right?
It's her monthly death anniversary. So, go pray for her.
You can get to Numazu on the bullet train pretty quick.
No, no. Impossible to take a bullet train. I have no money.
Oh gosh.
This should be enough for round trip for 2.
Ah, but I also need to take flowers and incense to visit grave, too.
So, this is not enough for everything!
Oh, brother.
She used to take care of you so much. Just go!
Is it OK?
It is OK!
Spend wisely.
I will. I will go with this.
Hey, I want to take a bullet train on the way back.
Not!
Isn't it slow and more relaxing to enjoy the scenery?
After all, you just want to have extra money left, right?
Don't complain since I brought you over here.
I didn't want to come here anyway. Place like this.
But you used to live with my mom here, right?
So what. I don't have any memories from a town like this.
Kuzuken didn't like my mom?
Sis didn't like me.
A bad brother whom she couldn't be trusted.
She didn't think that way.
Because she didn't trust me, she apologized for something I didn't do.
Kid doesn't have to know.
Sure enough, I was right.
You have a talent. Don't you want to challenge your talent more?
If you don't mind I will introduce you to a publisher which is looking for an illustrator.
A publisher?
Is it too much trouble?
No. Not at all! Thank you very much!
I will let you know the detail later.
Yes.
Thank you very much.
Don't think about unnecessary thing. Concentrate on my work!
I wonder if you needed to do this much.
Don't be ungenerous to a useful dog.
Mommy. I am taking good care of Kuzuken. So, please don't worry.
I am taking care of you, right?
Why don't you pray, Kuzuken? Don't you have anything to say to mom?
Not really.
Yeah. Just as you said, I am at the grave.
What do you mean by coming back immediately?
Nobo is in trouble.
He robbed a gun from a cop and barricading himself.
Huh!? Nobo is?
He's at the Sankyo Kasei gym where he used to train.
He took athletes as his hostages and demanding for the coach.
He says his coach messed up his life.
I will be killing. So bring the idiot coach!
If you didn't hurry, I would shoot their heads!
Shit.
You talked about Nobo suddenly the other day.
Did anything happen with Nobo?
Not really. Nothing.
Anyways, please come over. I beg you.
Wait. You are the one who asked me to go to Numazu.
You should be able to come back within 1 hour on a bullet train.
The case would be solved within 1 hour, right?
We are at a total deadlock. We have the coach on our side.
But we can't do anything else due to the hostages.
Kuzuken, please!
Not coming! Too much trouble.
You don't care about Nobo?
Isn't he your only rival?
Who cares? I have nothing to do with him.
Who cares about him?
That was Shuji-san, wasn't it?
What happened?
Why don't we get something good to eat before we return?
But….
Let's go.
Could it be? Are you Kuzumi Kenta-san?
Who are you?
I used to work with your sister. My name is Serizawa.
Kuzumi-kun had a kid. I was surprised.
I too was surprised.
Sis was a single mother.
Sorry, but how about father?
Beats me. I think father died before he was born.
Serizawa-kun, do you have kids?
Unfortunately, I am still a single.
I get unpleasant feeling by looking at kids.
I wonder why she left him with me.
We haven't been talking to each other for a long time.
Because she trusted in you, right?
I think Kuzumi-kun was trusting in you.
That's why she left her son with you.
No, no, no. Sis was trusting in me? No way.
But she had talked about you often at work.
She said you ran fast and were her proud brother.
She was just saying that.
If there wasn't for a smoking suspicion, you would have gone to college with sports scholarship, right?
It's unreasonable to cancel scholarship for something you didn't do.
Kuzumi-kun was really upset toward how school handled the issue.
I am very sorry.
Why are you apologizing?
But my brother didn't' smoke.
I apologize for him to have suspicious behavior.
However, please investigate the issue once again. This is some misunderstanding.
But it is clear that Kuzumi-kun was smoking.
Anyways. We are canceling his scholarship.
Please wait! My brother didn't do it.
Please believe him. Please! Don't tell me about cancelling his scholarship. Please.
She said no matter how many times she begged they didn't believe her.
You are lucky to have someone who trusted in you that much.
Sorry, I kept talking.
I just became nostalgic.
I will get going, then.
Kuzuken? What's the matter?
What do I suppose to do now?
"Shuji"
Hey, do you have the drop with you?
Yeah!
We are going back on a bullet train.
When is he coming?
Don't you care about these guys?
Go bring the idiot coach quick!
If you didn't bring him within 10 minutes, I would really kill them!
Why this way?
It will be OK. Please don't worry.
Kuzuken. Is he really not coming?
Underestimating me.
I'm gonna show them I am serous!
This is all that idiot coach's fault. Don't blame on me.
Who is it!
What! Who are you? Hey!
Goggle-Z number 2. Here I am!
Goggle-Z?
Ah, you can't see, can you?
Goggle-Z? Where are you?
You can't see me, can you?
But I can see you!
Here! Here, here. How is it?
Crap! I must hurry!
Kuzuken? Surely?
Here, I brought him for you.
Aoki!
I just made it.
Are you really Goggle-Z Number 2?
I will do it again, then.
Goggle-Z number 2, here I am!
Just now, hostage athletes have been safely rescued.
However, this time it seems like Coach Yamashita, which suspect Aoki Noboru has been demanding, became a hostage.
What is going on?
You have something to say to this old man, right?
That's why you did this much, right?
Here, say all you want.
What have I done to you?
You haven't realized anything despite of messing up someone else's life.
I haven't done such a thing.
Things you said to me 2 years ago. Don't tell me you don't remember.
I hadn't had a track meet for a long time due to my leg injury.
Your time is much slower.
I am not perfectly recovered. So that's why.
I will catch up eventually.
Aoki, don't you think may have hit your limit.
There was no way to get a good time right after I came back!
I was planning to catch up but you put “limit” on me.
That wasn't so.
Ever since that day, everybody looked at me differently.
There is no hope for someone who was set “limit” by his own coach.
That's not true.
What's not true?
That time, your leg was perfectly recovered.
But you blamed on the injury about your slow time.
Weren't you the one who felt your own limitation?
That's not true!
If you didn't say such a thing, I could have made a new record.
I didn't have to lose my job and didn't have to have hard time to make ends meet.
I didn't have to be ridiculed by that scum.
Scum?
It's all that scum's fault for me to be doing this.
He said I am lame.
Don't pull my leg!!
Cut it out!
Hey! Injury's fault. Coach's fault. Then this time is my fault!
You are just using them as excuses for not living sincerely.
Both Nobo and I are just running away.
Kuzuken?
Crap!
This time, you are doing cosplay and feeling like a hero?
Don't preach like an old man.
I don't want to be considered as same as you, scum.
What? If you say that much, then why don't you race with me?
Race?
You never beat me even once.
At the district championship, you were able to win because I was absent with cold.
No need to run. Result is known already.
You are afraid of losing against me, aren't you?
No way!
Then, stop running away and race with me!
Mr. Coach. Could you handle the starting signal?
I will win without my power.
Ready?
Get set.
You realize with this, right?
After all, you like running.
You didn't care about me next to you.
You were only aiming the goal line.
You didn't seem to care about win or lose.
Nobo has been like that for a long time.
Anyways, it is tiring to run seriously, isn't it?
It's been a long time since I've done this last.
Me, too. It's been a long time.
Suspect Aoki came out.
He slowly put his gun down by his feet and putting his hands in the air.
This case seems to be solved by Aoki's surrender.
Kuzuken must have gone to this one.
We still don't know who took Coach Yamashita like the wind.
Number 2?
Goggle-Z information!
Tired.
Hey!
If you were coming, why didn't you tell me?
Are you complaining about not becoming your exploit?
Not really. I didn't want to put a cuff on Nobo.
Right.
Ah, I have a message from Nobo.
Cosplay should be stopped after age 30.
He didn't believe I was a real Goggle-Z Number 2.
How did he figure out it was Kuzuken in the first place?
That's right. I wonder.
I guess goggle isn't enough for disguise after all. What do you think?
No, no. It's not about enough or not enough.
You don't look good at all.
Really?
Liar.
Doesn't look good at all.
It would be the same no matter who wears it.
Good work.
How was Numazu?
How did you know?
We are closely monitoring you since we had an incident with Kuzumi-kun.
You met her brother at the grave site.
Yes. And her son, also.
Was that so? We are trusting in you.
Yes.
Ah, it was a good bath.
Kuzuken, what were you talking to my mom?
Were you watching? Stupid brat.
It was just like you said.
Sis believed in me.
Well, it's no used to realize now, though.
I believe in you, too.
Because Kuzuken is a Goggle-Z Number 2!
Eh!! Huh!? Eh? What? You know about that?
Sure enough, that drop gives you a super power.
I've already figured out.
Huh!? Really?
I think mom wanted Kuzuken to be a hero.
Natsuki-chan.
Oh, what's up?
I finally got it. Regarding Goggle-Z!
You, too?
