Good afternoon. Good afternoon.
Hello! I'm working the night shift today....
Keep him for the night please. Yes.
Oh, Kotetsu kun, your wearing Tomatoron again today.
He does like him.
Encho Sensei. Oh you're here Tomatoron!
This is my money.
Encho Sensei, you're a Mister Detective, right? Right.
With this, look for my father.
Huh?
Please. Huh, wait, wait....
Hey, you're kidding...
What can we do?
Fixing the toilet last week, cost 70 thousand yen.
Huh, it was that much? At this time, 70 thousand....
If the Director doesn't work harder. Plus this bill for eight hundred came.
Again the Director has to work harder.
Well with all this, we can't call anyone for the party.
Party? Do it every year.
Call a magician... But this year's impossible.
Oh, director.
Seems like circumstances are we have to work crazy hard.
Oh. Kotetsu kun!
Tomato puree!
Oh ... here. Tomato puree!
Oh~! Great!
He got me... Oh, Sayako san.
Because he got you with Tomato puree, you have to collapse, right.
Tomato puree, collapse? Yes.
Don't you know? It's Tomatoron's lethal move.
Now it's Anime's "Vegetable Three."
The leader is Tomatoron. It's really popular.
Look you know, I am worried about how to pay an eight hundred yen bill.
I am worried about how to pay for real tomatoes!
More than Tomatoron, I like Bean Sprouten I think.
But he's always getting beat up....
Hitoshi kun, you kind of look like Bean Sprouten. Huh, now that you say that,
Minami chan looks like the girl, Cucumberin.
Huh, Cucumberin? That's my favorite. Is that right?
Stop this stupid talking!
Director... we can't pay the 70 thousand for the toilet repairs.
70 thousand yen? Yes.
Look, it'll be OK.
This job will pay for the bill, for sure.
Oh, Jojima, what?
Oh, Jojima.
Yes.
What, the client?
They're right here. What?
Well, actually this time the client, is me.
Jojima, what is it?
After all this time, you know Hana chan,
when talking to me, you address me without honorifics?
Well, you, you,
that just comes from when I was you're client in the first place.
Even now, I'm always paying you for information, right?
Well that's about when you were a detective....
Now that I am giving you work,
and to begin with, I'm older than you.
You know it's rude... Well that may be, but
what is it you want? Hurry and out with it.
Really this you know, this job's a piece of cake.
Don't believe you.
This thing here, OK...
I'm keeping it for someone.
Inside of this is information that's worth a lot of money.
But you know, there are people anxious
to get this back is what I'm saying.
Some Yakuza of course? No well I can't say.
Anyway, this is the situation.
Well for this to produce the money, a few days is necessary
prepare the money, OK. Yes.
For that time, I'd want you to take care of it.
Well, really, just keep it. That's all I'm asking.
Isn't it OK to keep it yourself?
Well just for keeping it, I was thinking of paying 50 thousand yen.
If you're unhappy with that, you can leave. Leave OK, OK.
70 thousand, paid up front. Huh?
I need to pay for the toilet repairs.
Well, no choice I guess. Thank you.
Here, counting on you.
70 thousand! Right now. You want it now?
Now I'm saying it's rude. Really...
Hanasaki Shinichiro...?
Those are police, right?
Suspicious work, from the central office,
that's Detective Yamato, right.
Hanasaki's got himself
involved with some big trouble again?
It was delicious. Yes.
Yes, you ate it all.
Kotetsu kun, if you can't eat it,
you don't have to make yourself.
Even though it's Tomatoron's favorite.
Oh, hey, I have a little question,
you love Tomatoron, don't like tomatoes,
how can you make that connection with yourself?
What? Suzuna Sensei,
don't ask Kotetsu kun about such philosophy.
Sorry.
There is not way. But I'm begging you.
Why now of all times? What's the purpose?
Just want to see him. There's no way that's it!
I'm asking...
Oh wait. Don't touch me!
Now, now... now now let's stop.
Hey yea, let's stop. What, what who are you?
Oh Encho Sensei. Encho?
Kotetsu kun's mother, Oh. Oh hello.
Well Harumi. There's no way.
If you even get close to Kotetsu, I'll call the police.
The police.
If the police are called, you're situation will get much worse, right?
Well OK.
What, wait.
Oh, I'm sorry, not knowing the situation.
No, no, sorry, that man right now,
is Kotetsu's dad. Oh?
Well, he's an awful man, he hangs out with yakuza.
He's being watched by the police,
Because of that, we split up when Kotetsu was two.
So now he suddenly appears, wanting to see Kotetsu.
Huh? Really insistent.
But actually,
Kotetsu too, said he wants to see his father. Huh?
It was just today, Kotetsu asked me.
All this time, even though he's never even asked once.
Therefore, ma'am...
No way. Kotetsu wouldn't
even remember his face, he doesn't know that man.
Therefore, I have no intention of them meeting.
Is that right.
Sorry.
Oh, I'll be picking him up in the morning.
Oh, if I don't get going. Thank you so much.
Excuse me.
Hey, is this Kotetsu's nursery school?
Oh, it's you!
Sorry, that you got involved.
Huh, what's up? Kotetsu's in here, right?
Hey Kotetsu! Now, now...
Come this way, this way.
What's the big deal. Just want to meet him for a little.
I am his real father, you know.
No way, he can only see people that have been authorized.
It's prohibited by pre-school regulations.
And further, Harumi san asked,
that you absolutely are not to see him.
No way. Sorry.
Then please persuade Harumi.
You want me to!?
Until then, I'll wait here.
Now wait, you plan to stay here?
I'll leave when I see Kotetsu. Therefore,
if you won't persuade her, I'll just go down there
directly and see Kotetsu, is that fine? No, no way...
Then please convince her.
Hey, aren't you under surveillance or something?
Please leave. No way.
Until you convince her, I'm not leaving here.
I have to go down myself.
I'm working the night shift. Please feel free.
Saying "feel free". You're free to leave!
Whatever.
Whatever, you do not come down, OK.
Got it.
OK with that? Yes.
Tomato puree !
Did it! Back.
Did it!
Well then, ready for the night shift.
What, you have such a gloomy face.
Just some stuff. What's that there?
Oh, I started doing kick boxing.
Thought I should get stronger, become a man that can protect everyone.
Oh, I want to be protected too.
Oh, right, there's a person downstairs.
Not upstairs, downstairs?
Somehow when he saw me, he vanished however.
He seemed to be watching this place. Is there something going on?
Of course, it's probably this.
What? Well just a job for Jojima.
Well I'm looking after this, but
it seems there are people that are after it.
Ah... Let me make a quick call.
Oh,
You're call cannot be completed at this time...
No one's there? Not related.
Did something happen to Jojima san? No, it's not that.
For a long time, he's always walked on thin ice.
Has never blundered before.
Hitoshi, sorry but, could you go take a look at Jojima's office?
With circumstances at the moment, I can't leave the preschool.
Jojima san?
Huh!? Jojima san!
Hello. What is it?
The room is ransacked, Jojima san's not here!
I'll call the police. Just wait a minute.
Shouldn't move until we know the situation.
Well, but! Leave it as is and come back.
Alright.
What?
What is it, no sake?
70 thousand yen.
I'm really sorry!
Director. Good job.
Find anything? I'm checking the USB's contents right now.
The Momoi gang's boss?
The problem is this other man in the picture.
Who's that? MPD's Police Chief.
Huh!? The Police Chief with Yakuza!?
Momoigumi's entertaining him...
This is quite a scoop.
If this gets out, there'll be quite an uproar with the police.
Then who ransacked Jojima's office....
Momoigumi or the police, want to get this thing back...
Jojima, for some reason, got this thing,
and will expose this truth at some point.
Then that means, maybe right now, Jojima san is....
No...
A day care that operates 24 hours?
We can't just carelessly break in. Yea.
That guy Jojima...
But Boss. Yea?
What happened with those pictures?
Well that is a problem.
If they extort the police chief or some other mess,
that lousy cameraman seems to have disappeared somewhere.
We don't know who that cameraman passed em off to, but
Essential for the cops to recover the photos too.
Therefore we need to find them first.
Watch what the cops do, and get in ahead of them.
Well we want it. I'll have Shigemura Shoji steal it
when we find it.
Just getting the photos, shouldn't be a problem.
Oh, and besides we have the police as allies,
That eyesore Yamauchi of the Kasuka syndicate will finally be smashed.
Good luck. Will do!
Great! Let's celebrate today! Will do!
Please bring out more drinks all around!
Today, please bring out some drinks.
I have 10 thousand yen. Here.
Encho Sensei.
What is it, Kotetsu?
Found my father?
Well... Kotetsu,
why did you suddenly want to see your father?
Cause Tomatoron said,
"Father's are a real hero to children."
So I wanted to meet him.
Right, a hero.
Understand.
Now I understand, get to sleep.
Have pleasant dreams.
Kotetsu kun did just fine.
However he wouldn't eat his tomatoes.
That normal for him.
Thank you. Thank you.
Hey?
My dad today? I'll try.
If you can't, I'll get you with tomato puree!
Harumi san, a minute.
What is it? I'm asking once again, however,
the possibility that he could meet his father...
No chance at all!
That's right.
Another round please.
I'll go catch a wink. Good job.
Great job.
Good morning! Oh, good morning!
What is in all the bags?
I've come up with a great idea.
Great idea? For the party tomorrow,
of course we have to have a feature.
All the children have been asking,
"Will there be something?" Because we have no money,
I was thinking of singing and dancing.
Isn't that what you always do?
For a party, we have to do something special.
I guess. So for that,
we'll wear costumes and do a "Vegetable Three" play.
A play? You think they will like that!?
I'll be Tomatoron. Not you!
Hitoshi kun, cause you look just like Bean Sprouten.
Well Encho will...
the rival boss, you look just like Elfatso Captain. The Elfatso Captain, me?
But what will you do for costumes? Buying them is expensive.
Therefore, we make them ourselves!
Oh, this!
Making costumes? Now...
Tomatoron and...
He's in the bed, hey...
Smells of alcohol.
Hey!
The jerk.
You're kidding...
Hey you! You!
Wake up! What now...
You moved my cashbox? It's short 10 thousand yen.
You stole it right! Didn't still it.
Just borrowed it. Borrowed?
Look when you borrow something, you say, "Here, borrow this."
is what is said when you borrow!
I'll pay it back today, I'll go down to the the bank and pay you back.
Of course you will!
Really now~! You better!
That's to pay for the toilet repair.
Aside from that, have you convinced Harumi?
I don't have much time.
Time?
What's this stuff?
To make costumes for a play.
At our party, we'll wear those to make the kids happy.
Kotetsu loves him too, Tomatoron.
Did you make this? Aside from that, En chan.
En chan? Cause you're Encho Sensei, En chan.
You're giving me a nickname.
I am kinda hungry.
You have no shame!
Yea, you're Hana chan's friend?
Yes, En chan's close friend, Hayakawa.
En chan?
Well, Rika san, you are pretty, won't you date me?
Huh! What are you saying?
Of course, Risa san is hot.
But you are cute too. Your name?
Isumi. I'm free, free!
What's with that guy? I'll explain later, OK.
He's so politely rude. Sorry.
Aside from that, tomorrow's a party at Smiling Garden,
Risa san's invited too.
I plan to become a hero for justice.
I have to get back to make costumes.
Can't wait.
Here you go. What's this?
It's tomato. Tomatoron?
Tomato confit, it's healthy.
Eat it put on the bread. Listen properly before eating.
I humbly partake.
Delicious?
Delicious. Great.
That place is nice. Let's go everyday.
Risa san is good looking, or rather.
How long you plan to be here? Well that's
once I meet Kotetsu I'll disappear, however.
Well then, shape up a little more.
There's reasons why Harumi san doesn't want you to meet.
You know right, you're not
a man that Kotetsu can be proud of.
That's harsh.
Hey excuse me a minute.
You are Hanasaki Shinichiro san, right?
Nice to meet you, I'm Yamato with the MPD.
What is it?
Nice to meet you, I'm Yamato with the MPD.
What is it?
Your keeping something for Jojima san, right.
Dunno. It's useless for you to feign ignorance.
We've done our own investigation.
You do have it, right? What?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Isn't it better to get along with the police?
Cause you're a former officer that resigned after letting a partner die.
Now you are a director at a preschool,
who's got a large debt with the Kasuka syndicate's Yamauchi, Hanasaki san.
So what about it?
One or two things about that preschool, things might happen.
It seems that Yamauchi is more clean, than the police.
Anyway, I don't know what you are talking about it.
Hanasaki san.
Anyway, I suggest you be wise with what you do.
Is there something wrong? No, there's nothing.
Is that right, then.
En chan, you're a former cop?
You resigned after letting a partner die,
what? And recently you were preaching to me,
aren't you worse than me? Shut up!
Why you mad?
Look, everyone has one or two bitter things in their past.
And they are trying desperately to get over them.
Hey that new kid Kamose, he's really trying hard.
But just this morning, he was muttering,
"I'll become Tomatoron."
If I go back only half hearted...
What?
Hey Hanasaki.
You know, you have something?
Huh?
What you might say, something with pictures.
I dont know. Well
Why were you talking to Yamato?
Oh that detective?
Well, I really don't know anything.
Hey, you're hiding something. Not hiding anything.
Maybe you come with us for a bit.
Wait!
Hayagawa.
Oh~! Been a while.
Hello Endo san. What's up.
You're friends with Shigemura Shoji, right.
Why do you know Hanasaki?
Oh well ah, you know.
You have a kid right?
Huh, no, there's no kid.
Oh I see. Are they watching it?
Wait a minute now.
The kid has nothing to do with anything. What is it, what do you want?
Well, just listen to one little thing I want, OK?
If your kid is important?
Stop!
Encho Sensei, want a ride?
Seatbelt.
In a hurry as ever.
Why are you running?
Nothing particular.
We know, you're looking after some pictures for Jojima, right?
And so, Momoi and the police are following you around.
Must be some terrible baggage.
Huh, don't know what you're talking about.
If you have the data, I'll buy it.
Why do you want it?
If we had that, the cops would be a lot less scary.
Further it would be a problem for Momoi too, you think.
If you give it to us, we'll consider it
payment on your loan for the next three years.
Huh?
No, I have no desire to assist you guys.
Hey, hey, even though we're helping you right now,
you don't know anything, like always.
Encho Sensei,
we think you must be holding that bomb, however.
Think about the preschool. Including about the money.
It's alright now, let me off.
We'll drive for awhile. Take the time to convince you.
No matter what you say, it's the same. Let me out.
One of the kids fathers might be going to see him unauthorized!
Hello.
Risa san, hello. What, where's Hana chan?
He went out somewhere.
Even though I brought him snacks.
Here, take it. Thank you.
Wait Sayako san, what are you doing?
Tomato puree, practice!
You want to know how to make tomato puree, I know how, but.
Shh.
Risa san, not that. It's Tomatoron's killing method.
Huh, Tomatoron? Tomato puree~.
Sayako san, you plan to be Tomatoron?
This here?
"Kotetsu love's him, Tomatoron."
Why you stopping?
Get out.
Where is this!?
You kept saying you wanted out.
No, I want to go to Smiling Garden!
You want everything. The drive was fun.
Excuse me. Alright.
What's this?
Hayagawa, what do you take us for?
What is it, wait...
Thanks for the help, excuse me. Thank you so much.
Take care.
What is this?
That guy...
Director.
Wow, great! The Vegetarian Three are done.
They're done nice.
Well...
It wasn't me.
It was Kotetsu's dad...
Director, what are you saying?
Hello?
Hanasaki san, maybe you could bring the picture data?
If you don't bring the real thing....
Help me En chan. They'll kill me.
Got it, bring it right now.
We'll really kill this guy.
Where are you? Alright, be right there!
What's wrong?
So he did give them the USB,
You mean a a dummy USB,
Yea.
The real thing I kept next to my skin.
This is bad.
Why, they stole the dummy, right?
Hayagawa... is Kotetsu's dad.
Now you wait!
Your dirty deeds, this fellow cannot permit!
I'm not what you have always thought!
Been studying kick boxing, I'm a new Hitoshi!
You OK, new Hitoshi?
Hey, hurry it up.
We'll beat him to death.
Hey, at him. Hey.
Hey, stop now!
Hey you guys stop!
Stop now!
What are you doing!
Police!
Catch them! Yes!
Hands up!
On the ground!
I was not involved with this at all!
Goda san, here just in time. Under arrest,
for confinement and suspected burglaries, Shigemura Shoji. Come!
En chan...
I'm not En chan!
Why did you take the USB?
Cause he said he'd do something to Kotetsu.
Oh!
You even took this thing!?
Sorry.
The 10 thousand yen before, I am really sorry.
Therefore this time, just small change... You idiot!
This you know... this is
Kotetsu's piggy bank!
For this he said, "Find my father."
"With this, look for my father."
He brought this to me.
Kotetsu did?
Unbelievable... unbelievable that a father would do such a thing.
Kotetsu would never think so either!
I feel so sorry for Kotetsu!
However...
However, I just...
as bad as I am, doesn't change that I'm a father.
I do have a son.
I am his father.
Therefore, someday I want to live an honest life.
Because I have such a feeling even a little,
even though I'm such a bad person, I've managed to go on living.
Now, no matter what, I want to see Kotetsu.
I want to see him to have more power to live.
Can you please make this happen...
You are Hayagawa Masashi, right?
Yes.
There's also an arrest warrant out for you for
the home invasion robberies with Shigemura Shoji.
Stand up. OK.
Hey, is that true?
I'm one of his skilled underlings.
Therefore it was easy for me to open your lockbox.
And then Endo asked me.
But I had planned on turning myself in soon.
So before that, I had hoped to see Kotetsu.
However...
Someone like me being a father...
I won't ask to meet him ever again, OK.
Please use the Tomatoron masks, OK.
If Kotetsu can see just that,
I'll be satisfied with that.
Koda san.
Yes.
I have a small favor to ask, however.
What is it?
I have a proposition. A proposition?
Wait just a little more please.
Wait wait, Momo Taro destroyed the Oni Island!
Heh, this isn't that.
Over there, please.
Well, everyone.
Terrific exciting drawing relay!
Next the Vegetarian Three show is starting.
Ask C Vitamin C Vegetarian Three Show
Yeah!
It's the Elfatso Captain, save me!
I'm all greasy, greasy.
FAT
I'm Captain Elfatso!
Princess, I'm going to cover you with oil!
Hana chan.
Why would you do such a thing?
Don't be foolish!
You with you're neutral fat, I'll cover you in oil
until your health goes bad! No, please!
Save me, Vegetarian Three, Please!
Vitamin C, Please C.
Huh, the Vegetarian Three won't come.
Wait!
Huh! I'm the lanky Beansprouten.
Everyone's idol Cucumberin.
And the champion of Justice, Tomatoron!
Three of us together, Vegetarian Three!
Alright then... bring it on!
Oh what....
Beansprouten punch!
Idiot, you Hitotshi, ouch, ouch... Oh Hana chan.
You... you are spirited, take this, idiot!
Oh wait, OK? OK?
Beansprouten! Took you our in one blow!
Tomatoron, Vitamin C, please C!
Vitamin C, please C!
Tomatoron! Tomatoron!
Tomatoron chop!
Tomatoron punch!
Tomatoron kick.
The final blow, Captain Elfatso.
Tomato puree!!
Thank you, Vegetarian Three!
Like this, we're protecting everyone's health.
Well everyone together,
vitamin C, please C.
Oh, tired. Hey!
What? You didn't have to seriously hit me?
Huh, well, I had planned to do it as arranged, but.
It hurt, it really hurt.
Hitoshi kun too, you were punching Hana chan hard?
Well, I was just checking the effectiveness of what I learned in kickboxing.
Testing on me! Kotetsu, I said no.
But Tomatoron went in here.
Look!
Kotetsu, what is it? Wasn't it fun.
Right now, Encho Sensei was thanking Tomatoron and his friends.
Tomatoron, are you Encho Sensei's friend?
So cool, cool.
You are Kotetsu kun, right?
Yes.
Tomatoron has something to ask you. What?
Don't be picky and eat all your food.
Yes.
Get along with your friends. I will.
And make sure you listen to your teachers.
Yes.
And lastly,
take care of your mom.
Alright.
Director.
Director, the police.
Oda san.
It's time, Hanasaki san.
I'm grateful you waited to make the arrest.
Those pictures, have been given to the
proper top brass.
It will cause quite an uproar won't it.
And with Yamato's guys.
We'll have to move, so that the members
of the Police Chief's staff won't know where it came from.
Thank you.
What's this, you gotta be kiddin?
Take off the mask.
Kotetsu.
Tomatoron here, he's going with the officers,
to catch some bad people.
Really? Yes.
Hey, what do we say?
Please,
Vitamin C, please C.
Good luck.
Daddy.
Kotetsu?
Well then.
Tomatoron!
Kotetsu. Tomatoron.
Kotetsu...
How did he know?
Kotetsu kun doesn't remember anything about his father, right?
You can never underestimate children.
Heartrending.
It's OK, someday he will surely become Kotetsu's hero.
Thank you, En chan.
Hana chan, why did you do that?
Result's the same, right?
It seems that the Police Chief will resign when the pictures are announced.
His underling Yamato too will be disposed of.
But you know, I had a more magnificent way!
Just a little more, and I would have had everything ready.
Return the 70 thousand yen.
I only have 60 thousand. What's with that.
Aside from that, where did you go?
You never answered your phone, you know.
Well therefore,
I was hiding from the bad cops.
Nihao. (Hello in Chinese) Oh it's Kanako chan.
Jojima chan, is your job done?
Today we're going to a Chinese restaurant, right?
What, aren't you Hanasaki san?
You are that recent marriage fraud victim?
Right now, I'm getting along with this Jojima chan.
Until yesterday, we were having fun together at a hot spring.
I'll be keeping the 60 thousand.
Sure.
Oh, Kotetsu, you're eating your tomatoes.
I'm returning this.
I couldn't find your dad, sorry.
Don't need it, I did meet him.
Right.
Yes.
