Is your wife really that scary?
It's not about being scary.
She's well on the monster side.
I kind of feel sorry for you.
Ah, sorry for talking about something like this.
It's because you're a good listener.
No. If there's anything troubling, you can mail me about anything.
Okay.
Yeah.
Natsuki-chan.
He's sleeping!
His sleeping face is so rare!
How cute! I'm taking a photo!
1... 2...
Frankenstein!
Franken?
Haruya-kun, you're too vulnerable.
You can't crash in a place like this!
Hey. Hey! Haruya! Toshiki!
What's wrong?
For two days...
I haven't eaten anything.
You weren't sleeping, you fainted because you were hungry?
Help... me...
Hey! Wait!
AED! Ambulance!
It's like you're going to eat the plate too!
Haruya-kun, when you're finished eating, listen to Miu-chan's story okay?
- Here you go. - Thank you.
Here.
So, what is it?
Ah. This is one of the customers from where I used to work, Baba-san.
He's the president of a company called Baba Camera Industries.
- Shachou-san! - No...
It's like a town factory.
At first we made single-lens reflex cameras for handmade film.
But we got pushed by the wave of digitisation.
Now we're making little pinhole security cameras for business use.
Um... You guys are only university students?
Yes, second years, like Miu-chan.
Ah, I see...
Baba-san is a bit troubled.
When I told him Haruya-kun helped me with the stalker case,
He said if there's such an excellent detective, he'd definitely like to be introduced.
For now, I'll just listen to his story.
Uh... Actually, I've been threatened by that woman.
That woman's the partner in my affair, though.
Ah, honestly!
Why did I have to be caught by that woman? Geez.
What kind of woman is she?
She's my girlfriend.
Eh? So cute!
I first met her three months ago...
After drinking with someone from work,
At a bar in Ginza I went to alone to sober up,
The one sitting next to me was Natsuki.
I wanted a girl to talk to,
And with the power of alcohol, we went to a hotel that day.
After that, we kept in touch by email,
And once or twice a week, we'd eat together and then go to a hotel.
That's unforgiveable!
He's still in the middle of talking.
Shut up!
Once or twice a week is too much, isn't it!
That's your point?
I was wrong for having an affair. I know that.
Things between men and women aren't so clean-cut.
It happens to everyone. One or two unavoidable loves.
Unavoidable? What's that?
Shh! Don't mind me.
So, why are you being threatened?
That's...
If your wife finds out you're cheating, you'd be in trouble, right?
- That... - So can you prepare it?
- Hm? - 1,000,000 yen by next week.
Huh?
If my wife knew about this, what kind of terrible things would happen?
Ahh...
The deadline is tomorrow.
But I could only get half, 500,000.
- Even though you're the president? - No, even if you say I'm the president...
My wife holds the purse strings. I don't have the money to be free.
So what do you want me to do?
If it's threatening by violence, that'd be troubling.
No, no!
I just want you to steal her phone and delete all the emails I sent.
- Emails? - Yeah.
Since she would listen to anything I said,
I also allowed myself to.
I sent a lot of frustrations with my wife and bad-mouthed her.
"Being convinced you're a beauty, you must be a really mistaken woman!"
"Seeing your sleeping face, it's the worst."
"With drool hanging, and your eyes half open."
"It's not something of this world, it's like a zombie's face!"
- You get what you deserve. - If my wife sees this,
My proud, jealous wife would be raging!
I think anyone would do that.
Does that woman know your weaknesses like this too?
She said she saved all the emails up 'til now.
Do you know her identity?
Other than that she works in a cabaret club, nothing.
You don't know her real name or her address...
Please somehow contact Natsuki and delete the emails. I'm begging you!
How about helping him?
But you know... It'd be quite a hassle.
I'll give you a reward of 500,000.
500,000?!
I guess it can't be helped.
Youth Detective Haruya ~ I won't forgive adults' evils! ~
This is a free fansub by mottofreaky/ihsarafes.
Who are those kids?
Uni student part time workers at my company, Asagi-kun and Noumi-san.
- Sorry for the intrusion. - Sorry for the intrusion.
You're working part time at our place too?
Yes...
Wouldn't you earn more working at a club in Ginza or something?
We're going to talk about work in the living room now.
I see. Then, take your time.
Come in.
It's no good... I feel like she's seen through it all.
She really is impressive.
Right?
Plus, she gets really jealous.
What'll happen if she sees those emails... You get it, right?
You launched your company when you were this young?
When I was 24.
At the start it was just my wife and I.
That's amazing.
I loved making cameras. I was just obsessed with it.
It's only a small company, but we won't lose to anyone in our skill.
The company...
... was something more important than my life.
Your wife is young too.
She's been scary since then though, you see.
I was always getting frustrated, and she'd say "What are you going to do like that?"
And struck my behind.
It might be thanks to her that the current me is here.
No matter what you say, you're grateful.
To your wife.
Well, more or less.
What kind of work do you two want to do in the future?
Ah... Haruya-kun, you want to keep being a detective?
No way!
Well, there isn't anything I especially want to do though.
But I'm sure you'll find it. Both of you.
... That'd be nice.
Here.
This is Natsuki-san's shop.
Hmm...
Just deleting mail from a smartphone, it's a cinch!
If it goes well, tonight I'll have earned 500,000 with one finger!
Sorry to keep ya waiting!
Oh!
Why?
Oh, I invited him. Cause I didn't want to go alone.
Is this okay?
Just think of me as the trump card pinch hitter Kawato of Alabama.
I'm counting on you, Kawato!
- Welcome! - Welcome!
Okay? When I give you the signal, you attract everyone's attention.
- Got it, got it. - In that time, I'll take Natsuki-san's phone and delete the mail.
Got it, got it.
Welcome! I'm Natsuki.
Please look after me!
Please look after me.
- Excuse me. - Okay.
- Please sit. - Okay.
Welcome, I'm Ageha.
Excuse me. Okay.
Why isn't it Haruya-kun?
I thought Haruya-kun would be coming so I dressed up.
He says he's not good with places like this.
Rather than that, why?
I came in, took the interview and was immediately employed.
Ah, as expected of Miss Tougaku!
Don't look so much.
Sorry.
- Today, you're here with a colleague? - Yes!
What kind of work?
A d-detective!
Detective?
What are you saying, president?
We're in construction.
You're funny, president.
- Thank you. - I'm really glad.
I come again next week.
Is it okay?
I wonder what they're eating?
- One more. - Okay.
Wait, Isobe-san, you're drinking too much.
Shut up! I'm the president. Idiot!
Sorry about that...
He ends up like this in front of a cute girl.
- It's totally fine. - Excuse me for a bit.
Move, move. Swap with me.
What the heck? I was having fun.
- I'm sorry. Thank you. - Here you go.
Hey hey... Do you have a boyfriend?
I wonder... Are you offering?
I'm a university student but between older and younger, which do you like?
Definitely younger.
I break out in hives from the smell of old men.
Oh.
Then, let's exchange details!
Sure.
Okay!
1, 2, 3, da!
Oh no! Are you okay, customer?
This is a cinch.
What's this?
- Are you okay? - Hey!
- Are these soft too? - Please stop that.
What's with you?
- Let me do something nice once or twice a week too! - Isobe-san, you can't!
- You can't. - Customer, you're troubling us.
We aren't that kind of store.
I'm not a customer.
I'm a detective!
Customer, won't you come this way?
Huh? Where?
You too.
Me too? What? No...
This is bad.
What is a detective investigating in our store? Huh?
O... Onii-chan!
Onii-chan?
I'm sorry. He's actually my brother from the countryside.
He was worried about me so he lied, pretending to be a detective and came here.
You don't look alike at all though...
No... He's a stepbrother, a stepbrother.
I'm sorry, onii-chan.
Let's go back. Let's go back to Alabama.
- Go back to Alabama. - Yeah.
Let's go, let's go. Onii-chan, hurry. Be careful.
- Back to Alabama. - Onii-chan, be careful. - Excuse us.
Let's go.
Alabama?
We were so close!
We're already banned from that store.
It's looks like that place definitely might have mixed something into my drink.
Hey, you.
What should we do, Haruya-kun? We can't delete the mail today.
Baba-san can't prepare the 1,000,000 by tomorrow, can he?
For now, he'll pay the 500,000...
... there's no choice but to give the remainder at a later date.
I said a million didn't I?
I'm sorry... I could only prepare that much, no matter what.
I'll be in touch again.
Wait.
Natsuki-chan...
Why are you suddenly doing something like this?
Are you angry that I didn't break up with my wife?
Huh? Gross.
What are we doing tailing her?
We're checking Natsuki-san's identity. We'll think about what to do later.
How annoying...
Though we only had to delete mail from her phone.
- It's because you failed yesterday, isn't it! - No, that... was Isobe-san's fault, you know?
But I... feel like somehow...
This isn't such a simple story.
Hey hey hey...
Aren't we out of place?
Shall we split up?
Welcome.
Would you like to try it on?
Oh, no...
... yes.
Go ahead.
Hello?
Yeah.
I think I'll be there in about five minutes.
- Where are you from? - We came from Gunma.
- Gunma. - Idiot!
Wow, you're from Gunma. So, shall I guide you to my recommended shops?
Really?
Sure!
So, later.
You get out.
No. You get out.
Seriously?
Seriously. Because I... can be a landmark.
Ah, sorry.
Sorry, I got excited.
- Crap, I lost them. - Seriously?
Toshiki was chasing her, though.
- Shall I call him? - He cancelled his phone.
I hate this~ Poverty.
Ah!
A landmark!
Alone, huh.
- Welcome. - What's that?
There's another guy?
I wonder what they're talking about.
- Ah, he's coming this way. He's coming. - Eh?
Ah! Ah! It's the end. It's the end. It's the end...
No more.
Hey you.
Yes.
Earlier...
You dropped this.
Ah, excuse me.
Thank you very much.
Hey, isn't Haruya-kun here?
'Scuse me.
Hey! Wait!
Then, take care of it.
Yes.
Just what happened?!
I just got a call from Natsuki,
She said I had to get 3 million ready by the end of the week!
Eh?
She said there's a penalty because I couldn't get a million for today.
And unless I gather it, she'll come to my house and show my wife the mail that day!
Ah... It's impossible! 3 million...
The situation's gotten worse!
No way...
Sorry, I'm hanging up for now.
Eh? Huh? Hello?
Who is it? Who is it?
What will you do, Haruya?
It's a badger game.
A badger game?
Timing wise, I think Natsuki-san was instructed by that man...
... to contact Baba-san.
So, Natsuki-san and that man are accomplices.
Only, Natsuki-san's attitude was strangely business-like.
What do you mean?
Like she was hired only to deceive Baba-san.
You mean it's a personal grudge?
What?
If so,
Our opponent isn't Natsuki-san, but that man.
Just who is it?
You don't have any idea?
Since you're the president, someone like a subordinate or a customer.
... No.
Welcome!
Ah! Haruya-kun's here!
Ah, ah! Please listen!
Just now when we were following Haruya-kun,
I bumped into a man exiting the café and my ice cream just fell!
Even though she hadn't eaten it yet!
- If it's within 3 seconds, you can still eat it. - No, that's impossible.
We thought of complaining, but he got in a woman's car and left!
A woman? Huh? Was it a young woman?
No, an old woman.
An old woman?
Well, I don't know though...
What are we going to do Haruya?
If we don't know the opponent, there's no way of doing this.
There's no choice but to lure that man out.
Baba-san, call Natsuki-san again tomorrow,
And say "If you extend the deadline by a week, I'll pay 5 million."
Okay...
No wait, that's impossible!
5 million is ridiculous!
It's just an excuse.
That way Natsuki-san will definitely consult that man.
It may be settled on the phone, but the possibility of meeting directly is high too.
Doing so, we'll lure the man out. And I'll ascertain his identity.
Yes?
Ah, hello? I just called Natsuki.
It was just as you said.
Understood.
I'm in front of Natsuki-san's place now.
So, later.
Get caught...
Ah... I gotta go to the toilet...
Ahh! It's a pervert!
- It's a pervert! - It's a pervert!
I'm not a pervert.
I wonder if he rang the bell...
No wait! No, you can't...
- Pervert, pervert! - You're wrong!
- She bit. - Bit?
- Eh, what? - What is it?
- Ah! It's a UFO! Look, a UFO! - A UFO?
5 million for a week... Can he really gather it?
Ah, Kazuomi?
A short time's fine, can't you come here?
Ah... sorry.
My professor hasn't stopped talking...
And the aquarium over there...
You said you'd help out.
Haruya-kun!
Shh!
I'm tailing him now.
Sorry.
But I heard from Kazuomi that you were around here.
Yeah.
When tailing someone, going as a couple is less suspicious, you know?
Huh?
So I'm counting on you!
Eh, what?
That's enough isn't it? You're laughing too much.
Because... Haruya-kun's face earlier was so weird!
That can't be helped.
You know, for a stakeout,
They say a nappy is good.
A policeman who came to the store said that.
Give me a break.
If there's anything else you don't know, I'd be happy to hear you out.
I'm supporting your detective business.
Thanks for that.
Anyway, it doesn't seem like it's that muscular man.
Right?
That...
What's wrong?
I feel like I've seen that somewhere.
It's routine for him to get breakfast here every morning.
Here he comes!
There's no mistake.
The person now was the one at the bar yesterday. Right?
Yeah.
Wada Nobuhiro…
... my wife's younger brother.
He's the owner of the lighter you saw.
Do you have any idea why her brother is threatening you?
Well, we have school, so we'll leave earlier.
That's right.
Hey, don't you think Baba-san looks bad?
Even if it's an in-law, to be betrayed by one's younger brother must be a shock.
Isn't it better for us not to butt in any more?
I think so too.
The rest is between the family.
Well, I guess so.
You were asked about Natsuki-san's case, isn't that enough already?
Well...
We aren't related to what that person needs to do.
But I can't leave him alone.
Eh?
Haruya-kun.
Take care of Noumi-san. I'll stay with him a little longer.
Hey, Haruya! Haruya!
Though he said he wouldn't do work that didn't get him any money.
It's fine. Let's leave him be.
I understand now.
Why my brother set me up.
The one behind this in the shadows is Chizuko.
Your wife?
A year ago, there was talk of merging our company with one of the leading companies.
They approached us with conditions of merging given a large sum of money but...
... I refused.
Our technology is ours.
I won't hand that soul over to anyone!
- But your wife wanted to sell? - That's right.
I know what she's thinking.
I could have put money in the hands of our financially cornered company.
She must've planned to use it as proof of malpractice and misappropriation to take the management rights.
Let's just say...
Eh?
Let's say you divorce your wife, and drive the younger brother out of the company...
... Would that refresh your spirit a little?
Yes?
Excuse me.
I'm from the detective agency.
Detective agency?
Am I able to come inside?
Huh? Why?
If I said it was a request from Baba-san, you'd get it, right?
Cooperate? Why should I cooperate with Baba-san?
About your blackmail of Baba-san...
... We could even tell the police.
If you go to the police, his wife will find out about the affair, right?
Listen.
Baba-san has already decided to prepare himself.
If he's being threatened, it's better to sue.
That's why I said he should take steps where appropriate.
Where did you meet your employer, Wada?
So that guy's called Wada.
You didn't even know his name?
All he said was "Won't you do some work?"
For how much?
All the money ripped off Baba.
So that's how it was...
I have debt, I was in trouble.
So will you cooperate? Or no?
I don't particularly mind even if I get arrested.
I got it.
If it's money, I'll try asking Baba-san.
Dear me... It looks like you need our help after all.
- Snap! - I didn't ask!
I brought him here. We were supposed to leave you alone...
... Sorry.
It's not a big deal.
So, is he coming? Wada.
Yeah. Natsuki-san called him.
I want to confirm the plan once more before I meet with Baba tonight.
Ah, he's here!
Natsuki, what is it?
I wanted to confirm the arrangements again.
That can be done on the phone, right?
Okay! Good...
Did you take the photos properly?
Yeah. The money's being transferred by Baba-san.
I see.
Huh? You guys.
Ah... Hello.
So that's what it was about.
Just once...
Can you apologise to Baba-san for me?
Tell him I was wrong for deceiving him.
Because that person's... a good person.
Okay.
Even calling out Nobuhiro, saying you have something important to say,
I wonder what it could be.
Is it related to these kids?
That's right.
They're related!
What's wrong? Your voice is trembling!
So, I'll cut to the chase.
My, you're speaking through a boy?
I'm always indebted to Baba-san, so I thought I'd give something back, too.
And today, I got my hands on something interesting.
When I showed it to Baba-san,
He said he'd definitely like both of you to see it,
So I brought it here.
What? You came to show it to me, didn't you?
Before that. Between the missus and the brother,
Who thought up this idea?
Idea?
Enticing Baba-san into an affair, using that as blackmail...
... and get your hands on the company's money.
What the heck are you?
This woman is the woman you hired to trap me, right?
Natsuki-san confessed it all.
My, you slept with such a young girl? How indecent.
I know this was instigated by you!
If you don't apologise, a lawyer will be called and divorce litigations will start.
Divorce? Why would we?
Sure, my brother and a woman are shown in this photo.
My brother might have hired the woman. But why is it that I have to get divorced?
Do you have evidence I teamed up with my brother?
Y-you...
Nobuhiro... You're a bad boy.
To set up your brother.
Please take the punishment gracefully.
I understand.
Okay.
Quit messing around!
There's evidence that you were involved!
I'm sure there is!
Then let's talk when that comes out. This is a waste of time.
What did you say?
- What did you say?! - Please calm down.
We can't resolve it like this.
Let's discuss it again in another room.
My, this boy is much more decent than you, isn't he?
We'll be back in 20 minutes. We'll be borrowing the study.
Go ahead. Take your time.
This is your work!
Let go! Let me go!
Did you see that, Haruya-kun? That Chizuko's face!
She sure was triumphant.
- You put on a fine performance too. - No, looking at Chizuko's face, I kind of...
I really got irritated.
With this, those two should be quite off guard.
I wonder if the've noticed?
It's fine. No matter how shrewd your wife is,
If that's her only skill, she won't be paying any attention to her surrouondings.
Is that so...
Baba-san?
They must be eating something nice...
Are all of your worries about that?
Yeah.
♪ Stone-baked sweet potatoes ♪
Eh? Hey, what's wrong, Toshiki?
- Ha! - Hey, what's wrong, Toshiki?
Hey!
Are you alright? I thought your blood pressure went up and you fainted.
Huh... Where's your younger brother?
He said he's making a phone call, and went outside.
Is that so?
What's this about?
Look.
Good grief. I wonder when he noticed the plan?
He must've investigated it from scratch with that boy.
It was only a little bit more.
It can't be helped.
Let's look for another opportunity, and think of what to do.
It's a plan my sister thought of. I'll follow through to the end.
This is the evidence.
You tricked me?
You're the one who tricked me!
Coward!
Who are you?
Since you brought friends, I also called some.
And you.
I thought I'd seen you somewhere.
You've been darting about me recently, haven't you?
Well...
I wonder about that.
Being made fun of by the likes of this brat!
This rotten brat!
Quit it.
They seem dangerous. I'll be outside.
You rotten brat!
Haruya-kun...
Baba-san is...!
Messing with me that much, do you think I'd keep quiet?
What are you doing?
Baba-san, stop it!
Your hands aren't meant for something like that, right?
Shut up!
They're for making nice cameras for your company that's more important than your life, aren't they?
Baba-san!
This...
This camera...
They weren't made for something like this.
This is an attempted murder.
I'll take you to court!
That's enough!
Haruya-kun.
This person, the first time I came here he said this.
It might be thanks to her that the current me is here.
- Here, barley tea. - Ah, thank you!
- It's hot, it's hot. - It really is!
Baba-san was really proud.
In the space of 24 years,
I don't know what's happened to you as a couple but...
Even you, back then, had such a nice smile.
Is it okay to end it like this?
Let's go.
Yeah... They said Baba-san and his wife have started over.
Eh?!
Why? Even though he had such a terrible look?
That's something between a man and a woman.
I don't understand adults.
Haruya, why are you keeping quiet?
You got it, didn't you? A reward.
It disappeared with my tuition and rent.
Hey you, what about my cooperation fee?
There isn't any.
The glass you broke in Natsuki-san's shop.
It took 100,000, you know.
That...
The night you grabbed hold of her boobs,
- And shouted "Young chests are the best!" - How nice!
That's the worst.
Is that right?
No, that wasn't me.
Believe me, Shizu-chan.
I gained a certian degree of life experience.
I like worn out boobs!
How low! You're banned until you pay your bills.
Eh?
You too, Haruya.
Well I...
As you asked.
Eh?
Fuuka? What's up?
I wanted to hear your voice.
I see.
Will you come back for my birthday?
Yeah, of course.
Yay!
A puppy would be a nice present...
A puppy?
Okay.
Look forward to it.
Okay.
