What are you doing!
The ones who attacked you were two foreigners, right?
-Yes. -You work in the accounting department
for World Money Japan, is that correct?
About today's incident...
can you not tell the company about it?
The purse snatchers turned themselves in.
Bring Tomita Sachiyo in.
What's your name?
I'm positive. That's them.
We're checking out World Money Japan and the president, Miyake.
The data I copied from Tomita Sachiyo's USB drive.
The two foreigners were probably after this file
that has financial data that they don't want anyone to see.
Unlock it and analyze it.
I don't know what you had in mind when you came, but
you were in my office without permission and
I heard you made a fuss at the reception desk as well.
We don't have a chance if we get sued for trespassing on personal property!
If you want to keep your job, stop right here.
There's a file you're sharing with Tomita Sachiyo in Accounting, right?
What's the password?
What are you talking about? I'm just a hired hand.
I don't know anything. Untie me!
Nagashima, use this rock to get the password out of him.
Alright. You want the password? I'll tell you. Put that down!
4861180!
-What's this? -It's an off balance sheet.
Miyake wasn't doing any foreign exchange trading.
What's this "New World?"
Probably the organization Miyake works for.
We're gonna keep our eye on Miyake.
He may be running to them to seek refuge tonight.
We'll take care of the rest at once.
No way...
Nagashima, ambulance!
"I'm tired. Miyake." ( "Tsukaremashita. Miyake")
The off-balance sheet was exposed, so he killed himself, huh?
Do you think Miyake really wrote this?
"SHIkaremashita. SHIyake."
To a foreigner, MI, SHI, and TSU all look the same. (katakana characters are similar)
Miyake didn't commit suicide.
Hey...wait a minute. Marukou*, hey! (MARUoka+TAKAko, which can be read KOU)
Foreigner? What do you mean foreigner?
Then... here.
Nagashima-san?
-Hello. -You're still here?
Yes. I'm sorry for causing trouble after you all went out of your way
to get me here.
Even as a babysitter?
I, Nagashima Aoi, will turn over a new leaf and...!
-What? What...? -Answer me! Hey, Marukou!
-Who's the foreigner? Hey! -Hey, Marukou!
-Aoi-chan? -That's what I said.
-What are you doing! -That's what I said.
Are you okay?
I'm sorry. I saw a person falling to the ground
for the first time...
Senpai, wait for me.
Didn't Marukou fire that young gal?
This isn't good, is it?
I've already told the Deputy District Director.
A man fell from a condo in Mita, Minato-ku
and was taken to a hospital in the city. The man has been identified as
Miyake Seiichi-san, the head of an FX company, World Money Japan.
Miyake-san is unconscious and in critical condition.
-According to the MPD... -Taichi! Taichi! Wake up!
Miyake-san had reserved an airline ticket for tomorrow...
Taichi!
Tomita-san?
Going somewhere at this hour?
Oh... No.
Excuse me! I need to use your bathroom!
-The bathroom's over here... -Don't puke on Hashizo.
Hold it in.
So you're sure this isn't your son's drawing?
I've never seen it.
What is your relationship with Miyake Seiichi-san?
Nothing, other than that of president and employee.
The ones who attacked Miyake-san
and the foreigners who attacked you are the same, aren't they?
Let us protect you and your son.
-That won't be necessary. -They'll be coming after you again.
I told you I have nothing to do with them.
You'll wake up my son. Please leave.
Alright. I'll assign a police officer to keep watch outside then.
Please take extra care to lock up.
Don't open the door for anyone, and stay with your son.
You should keep him out of school for a while too.
That's it for today.
Excuse us.
Senpai, I noticed Hashizo-kun says "Daa" sometimes.
-Hashizo's my secret weapon. -Secret weapon?
He says "Daa" when someone's lying.
What? Why?
Because Daisuke, his father, is a useless liar.
-You mean, he's like a lie detector? -He's more competent than you.
So does that mean Tomita Sachiyo's lying?
Something smells.
-Yes, it does. -You.
Listen, you
go on home before that smell gets on Hashizo.
Yes... But I'll keep watch here.
You have a more important mission.
-What is it? -Tomorrow morning
stop by at the drugstore near the station.
Important mission? "BIG SALE ON DIAPERS"
Ten of those.
-But there's a limit per customer... -Ten.
If you can't get them, your probationary appointment's canceled.
Got that?
Woah, P.U.!
Good night.
Ah~ this is stinky, huh?
-Mom. -What, Taichi?
Bathroom?
Did something happen to Miyake Oji-chan?
No... You're going to catch a cold. Let's go.
-Chief Maruoka! Keep your voice down.
I'm sorry.
-Is it this apartment? -Yeah. Can you keep watch in shifts?
What am I supposed to watch...
Personal protection.
You just have to stand here.
Got it.
-So you had a fight with Nagashima, huh? -Yes... What?
Are you frustrated because she got to be a detective before you?
-Uh... No, I'm rooting for her. -Daa~
Is something the matter?
Men are such a pain.
That's a pretty impressive stroller.
Complete heating and cooling system, preset to 20°C, humidity maintained at 60%.
See ya.
Maruoka-san, why did you decide to be a detective?
Detectives can make a living on crimes, right?
Excuse me?
I figured I'd never have to worry about losing my job.
But still, you'd want to protect the victims...
-Protect the victims? -Am I wrong?
I don't think
you can protect someone just because it's something you want to do.
Well, Nagashima's obviously the type who wants to be protected.
-I don't know about that. -Thanks.
Run!
Watch out!
Ma'am.
This is your second time around, isn't it?
I'm sorry.
That will be 8,982 yen at retail price.
Here you go.
Why am I paying out of my own pocket...
Are you alright?
Excuse me. I'm fine. Thank you.
See you around.
Aoi.
Takuya.
Sorry about yesterday.
For throwing the books.
Enough is enough!
Sorry.
That's okay. I said things I shouldn't have too.
Sorry.
So you're gonna stay?
Yeah, I was given this chance so I'll give it another shot.
I see. But detectives have a really dangerous...
Oh shoot! I'm gonna be late.
-Sorry! -Aoi.
Why don't we get married?
I'll protect you.
Why all of a sudden?
If I ask you all of a sudden, can't you give me an answer?
It's not that I can't give you an answer. I was just a little surprised.
Can I think about it?
Yeah, alright.
Request reassignment of the following: Nagashima Aoi to Traffic Division
In addition, request transfer in of one officer from Community Affairs Division.
(only the Director's approval block is blank)
Hara, marriage is a good thing.
You can say that because your wife loves you very much.
Hey, what's this? Are you going to a marriage meeting, Hara?
You know better than to be pretentious with your looks.
-They say marriage is all about timing. -Miss that timing, you'll be single the rest of your life.
You appreciate being married when
the lights are on in the house when you get home at night.
I was quite touched too when my wife was waiting for me with breakfast ready
when I got off night shift during my police box days.
When I hear things like that, I think marriage isn't all that bad...
What are you talking about? We don't have time to chitchat.
Don't worry. Leave it to me.
Hey, wait a sec!
Who else isn't married in our section?
Are you talking about me?
Aoi-chan, what's your plan for marriage?
Well...
So how about it? Now's the time to resign and marry.
Oh, stop it. What are you talking about.
Here you go.
Are you going to starve Hashizo to death?
Oh, sorry.
Did something happen with Koban*-kun? (*police box)
-No... -What?
-You mean Koban-kun, that boyfriend? -Did he propose to you?
-No, um... -Alright, good job!
-So that's... -Congratulations.
Be quiet! Get back to work.
Excuse me. Yes... Yes, yes.
It's not here.
What? It's gone! Crap, what am I gonna do~.
My ID's gone..!
Nagashima, you're in serious trouble.
Losing your police ID means formal reprimand, you know.
What should I do!
When was the last time you pulled it out?
Hello~.
How strange.
It's not here.
I didn't see any police ID around here.
Ah...sorry.
Look, Blue Thunder. Isn't it cool?
Yeah, it sure is~.
Why don't you ask if you can search this side too?
-May I? -Sure, go ahead.
Thank you. Excuse me.
Grandpa, Grandma!
I'm sorry! I'm sorry.
Did you do something just now?
Never mind that. Hurry up and pick everything up.
ID...
-Here. -Thank you.
Oh? What can this be?
My ID.
Hashizo, you're such a prankster.
Senpai.
You took my ID, didn't you?
Your fault for leaving it where it can be stolen.
Thief!
Taichi.
Tomita-san? What is this?
-Keeping surveillance on those two. -Surveillance?
Aw, come on. You're the one who set it up.
What? What do you mean?
The cushion thing the ding~ thing was sitting was on?
What?
What! Did you switch it?!
That's considered voyeurism! We'd be in trouble!
Rules are made by people anyway.
Anything people makes can be broken easily.
But we're police officers.
We're up against murderers who break rules, so
why should we follow the rules.
Rules are rules. It's common practice to follow them.
Common practice? What's common practice?
Common practice is... common practice.
I don't get it.
Why do you go that far to catch a criminal?
Because it's profitable.
Profitable?
What, didn't you know? Bonus for making arrests.
You're doing it for money?
I'm busy now.
We found out the identity of the body found in the water at Mokuba yesterday.
Oh.
We're having a meeting. Get here immediately.
-Don't want to. -What?
Don't like meetings. They accomplish nothing.
Goddamn you!
She said "I don't like meetings. They don't accomplish anything so I'm not coming."
That broad... Let me talk to her.
Hey, Marukou! Looks like you took it upon yourself
to dispatch a police officer from Community Affairs Division since last night, huh?
-So? -Since when do you have that kind of authority?!
Don't tell me you sent him back?
-He's long gone! -You...
Damn jaw face!
What's jaw got to do with anything, dumbass. Hey, Marukou!
Take care of the rest.
Hello? Maruoka-kun?
No, this is Nagashima.
Nagashima-kun. Where's Marukou?
She ran off somewhere.
I see... Is it true you're getting married?
Well, it's not definite yet.
More like slowly getting there?
Really. That's good news!
Good luck!
If Marukou comes back, tell her to attend the meeting.
Here. Today's notes. Can you come to school tomorrow?
I'm not sure yet.
Oh, someone wanted me to give this to you.
Don't tell your mom, he said.
See you.
-I heard Tomita's household is a single. -What's single.
"I'll be waiting at the school. Miyake."
Quit it!
Hey, don't!
Taichi. Taichi?
Taichi?
Hello?
I have your son.
Come to the Azabu World Festival at 3:00 with the USB drive.
Taichi... Is Taichi alright?
Your tummy's full now, huh?
Why don't we get married?
I'll protect you.
It feels good, doesn't it?
-Senpai! -We're going.
Are we done here?
Boss said for you to attend the meeting. Senpai!
Hey... wait a minute!
The identity of the burnt body is Sakazaki Susumu, 45 years old.
Accounting Department head at World Money Japan.
Miyake's company?
Come to think of it, Marukou was saying something about playing with fire.
There's a hole here!
Were you playing with fire or something?
So Miyake must be the culprit.
She... had it figured out.
What? Don't tell me you're
serious..!
What about the meeting?
Hey, what are you doing?!
That's not quite it.
Hey~!
What?! For God's sake!
Wah~ Seriously, what is this!
That's it.
Huh? Hey!
-What's your cup size? -Huh?
-Lemme see your boobs. -What?
-Hurry up and undress. -What are you talking about? I can't...
You're useless, aren't you? I'm gonna snitch that you lost your police ID!
Wait a minute! You're the one who did that!
Okay. Your probationary appointment is canceled.
Stop messing around!
Calling me "useless" like I'm something.
What is this? Constantly coming up with nonsense out of the blue.
I can't take it anymore!
I'm sick and tired of being pushed around by you!
Okay. Why don't you just quit and get married then?
I must might do that. If I have to do work like this,
I'd be much happier getting married.
At least I have someone who asked me to marry him in earnest.
-You mean that Koban-kun. -Yes.
Earnest, huh...
What, do you have a problem with that?
Is marriage such a blissful thing?
Of course it is! That's why everyone does it.
So your happiness is same as everyone else's.
Senpai, have you ever really loved someone?
I bet you never
wanted to be with one person forever, have you?
That's why men leave you!
You don't even have the option to choose marriage!
I'm sorry.
You may be right.
I always thought Hashizo's fine with just me, but
maybe he needs a father, even if he is a useless jerk.
I mean... Senpai's doing well by yourself.
Although who am I to be saying that.
Did you already give your answer to that proposal?
No, I haven't yet.
Then why don't you ask him out on a date?
You know, today's the World Festival! There's a parade from 3:00 too.
Go ahead, ask him.
Yes, but...
Hurry up and go change.
Get psyched up and go!
Psyched up?
Before it's too late, like me.
Senpai.
Hurry, go.
Good luck!
See you later!
Aoi.
What...
My answer from this morning.
Please...
Please marry me.
What?
I mean,
you were asked if you wanted to get married, so
wouldn't the answer normally be "Yes" or "Sorry"?
-What difference does it make! -It doesn't really matter, but...
In the first place, what's "normally"!
Why does it turn out like this, for God's sake!
-Aoi! -Never mind!
Yes.
I'll marry you, Aoi.
Really? Are you sure?
I'm the one who asked you.
That's right.
-Ow. -You had me scared.
That hurts.
Thanks for your answer.
Oh! Sorry!
-Hello. Senpai? -How's the parade?
I see it coming now!
Senpai, I proposed to him.
Tomita Sachiyo was their accomplice.
She's trying to make a getaway with her son.
I followed her to the Festival and she's heading towards your direction.
-What do you mean? -Search out Tomita.
-What? But... But right now... -Search!
What happened?
Damn her!
Hey Aoi!
Hey.
Excuse me!
I'm sorry...
Tomita Sachiyo.
Let me see my son. I'll give you the USB drive after that.
Hello, this is Nagashima. I found Tomita.
Where's her son?
Taichi-kun...
The white skinhead guy's in the car with Taichi-kun.
Stop and search Tomita.
Got it!
-Aoi... -Sorry. Keep your eye on that car.
-What? -Please.
Excuse me.
Tomita-san!
Hold it!
Senpai?
Are you running away?
Tomita~!!
Tomita-san!
Arrest them!
Nagashima! Get him!
Excuse me.
Aoi!!
Suspect captured.
Tomita-san...
A toy gun.
Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
-Mom! -Taichi!
Are you okay? You're not hurt?
I'm okay, but I was a little scared.
I see...
Please take this.
Got it.
Sorry.
I apologize deeply. Excuse me.
What, kidnapping incident?
You really didn't know?
Must be nice to be so carefree.
We were all forced to take part in Marukou's plan.
Plan?
After the stop and search, Tomita will try to escape to a different area.
I'll shoot her there.
We're setting this up in Tomita's chest.
The criminals will approach Tomita to take the USB drive.
While they're occupied with that, secure Taichi-kun. Got that?
That's absurd!
You expect a child's play like that to succeed?
Do you have another plan then? We only have 15 minutes.
What about the police officer who's supposed to stop Tomita...
Not to worry. I've already made arrangements.
That was me?
You're the only detective Tomita Sachiyo would recognize.
What the...
Senpai!
Why didn't you tell me about the kidnapping!
You're slow and I didn't need you to get all fired up and mess things up.
What do you mean mess things up?
-Shut your mouth, Russell! -Russell?
Both suspects
admitted to the series of incidents.
-What about Tomita Sachiyo's USB drive? -We sent it on to Second Division.
We should be able to track down the organization too.
However...
everyone in this section will get a formal reprimand.
-What? -Everyone?
Granted, it was an emergency situation, but
we have to admit, we went ahead with a reckless plan.
-Why all of us? -That's not right!
It's all because of Marukou's call she made on her own!
One police officer's mistake becomes the mistake of the entire police organization.
In the first place, you have no awareness as a law enforcement officer.
Study the basics all again!
Why don't all of you quit your job as a detective?
What?!
Those who only think about themselves can't be detectives.
All you do is charge ahead according to your own rules too.
Have you ever thought how much trouble that's causing others?
Securing the child gets first priority.
Good thing you achieved the result you wanted, huh? Maruoka.
Who'd want you, who casually brings her kid to the crime scene,
to investigate?
Who's gonna trust you?
You're the one who doesn't have the right to be a detective.
Well, whatever.
Arrest warrant was issued for Miyake.
We're going, Russell!
Wait a minute! What the heck is Russell?
This is it. The Russell train.
"A locomotive used to clear snow.
It moves forward as it moves the snow with its wedge-shaped head."
Isn't it cool?
Is it really?
President Miyake will be arrested as soon as he regains consciousness.
You do know that he was trying to escape, leaving you and Taichi-kun behind...
By himself.
I found out about the off-balance sheet by chance...
In exchange for not reporting it to the police,
I asked him to marry me.
Taichi was fond of him too, so
I decided not to hand over
the USB drive to anyone until we were married.
You mean you threatened him so you could get married?
I always felt insecure.
I was afraid I'd be left behind again.
When I got pregnant with Taichi from the guy before,
I assumed we'd get married. But
he told me to get an abortion.
That he couldn't imagine getting married, nor did he want to.
The father of this child was telling him to die, I thought.
Then I knew I had to give birth to this child, that I wanted to.
But it's been tough.
No matter how hard you try to raise a child alone,
a mother doesn't get praise from anyone.
There's nothing to live for.
Why did I have this child...
Why am I living.
I couldn't stand myself for
constantly having those thoughts.
But he praised me.
He told me there's no way he could work and
raise a child single-handedly like me.
When I was working late, he always took the time to talk to me.
He'd say "Isn't Taichi-kun lonely without you?
Don't push yourself too hard."
We started dating after that, and
I thought how nice it would be if he was Taichi's father.
I thought I have to be happy,
that I had to get married for Taichi's sake too.
I waited, but he wouldn't talk about marriage.
I had no choice but to do this, for Taichi's sake too!
You understand, don't you?
Are you putting the blame on your child?
I didn't want Taichi to feel lonely anymore.
But because of that, your son was kidnapped.
Truth is, you just wanted to lean on a man, didn't you?
Isn't that what marriage is?
Don't kid yourself.
Protect your own child yourself.
Thanks.
It's not much, but
you can manage somehow if you have money.
Don't take me for a fool!!
Why? Why do I have to be blamed for everything?
I tried to do my best too!
But I reached the end of my rope!
It didn't matter who, I wanted someone to protect me.
What's wrong with depending on a man?
Go right ahead.
If that's what makes you happy.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
-Ta-da~! -How cute.
Aren't they?
I found them at the World Festival.
I thought they'd look so cute on Hashizo!
You're really fond of Hashizo-kun, aren't you?
I can hardly wait until he starts walking.
Mutsumi-san.
What kind of a person is Hashizo-kun's father?
What did O-Taka say?
A useless liar.
Yup.
Apparently, he doesn't even acknowledge
the existence of the child or O-Taka.
He told her, "You're not human, so I don't consider
the child you bore human either."
As he laughed foolishly.
That's the kind of guy O-Taka's battling.
Isn't it pretty?
Look, lots of houses too.
Takuya?
What's up?
We weren't done talking.
Sorry, it got kinda crazy.
-The fur collar too... -Oh... That's okay.
I got to thinking about things.
Marriage isn't a easy decision, is it?
We'll have to think about it seriously, huh?
Aoi, you're amazing.
Capturing the suspect all by yourself.
You did well.
Did I?
Let's hold off on our marriage.
You don't mind, do you? I mean, looks like you're pretty busy.
Why? Wait a minute. What do you mean?
Go ahead and tell her.
That you were seriously turned off by Russell's brute strength.
-What? -Russell?
Hey, what are you laughing about?
-That's not true, right? Right? -Ouch. That hurts.
Sorry.
That's not true, right?
Being alone is great, Russell.
But I'm not alone!
-Takuya, that's not true, right! -No use chasing after him. It's too late.
Shut up. For God's sake, Takuya~!
-Aoi-chan.
Thanks for everything.
Huh?
Russell, take care.
-See you, Russell. -I wish you happiness, Russell.
What's with this Russell, Russell thing?
Russell-kun, it was only for a short time, but you worked hard.
What's going on? I never said I was quitting...
Sorry. This is... Oh?
There he is. This way...
Excuse me.
We were looking for a new babysitter, and
this is Sasaki Takuya-kun, the successor.
It's the boyfriend.
Russell-kun, congratulations on your marriage. But you know,
make sure you transition over properly before you go.
