It's not a date, you know.
Recap of last time!
Could it be you can hear me?
Morning.
The only one who can see me is you.
I've got unfinished business in this world.
Until that's done, I can't enter Nirvana.
What's this about being murdered?
I am that murdered detective, Amano.
You have 2 options left.
You can solve the case with me,
or go on living in fear of the killer.
Now, which will you chose?
Fine, I get it. I'll do it.
No no... You've got it wrong...
- Fuyuno!
- It's the bear's fault...
So it's true?
Fuyuno, do you know it's me?
I'm Fuyuno of the Old Atami station.
There's something I'd like to ask you.
Yo, it's me, Fuyuno.
Can you hear me?
Could it be...
- You know?! - Yes.
Hooray!
That's Takai Riku-kun's bear, isn't it?
Eh?
Slump.
Do you know Riku-kun?
Eh?
If so, we should talk.
Please go somewhere with me.
That's too much for any guy.
Did you say something?
Teddy Go!

Ah~
I thought Fuyuno at least would believe in me.
No one would believe it, normally.
Still, I'm happy we're going to see Riku-kun.
Riku-kun would rather have a sympathy visit
from Fuyuno-san than from dead Yassan.
Ah... He's such a good man.
Huh? Fuyuno-san's not here yet?
He's over there.
Let's assemble.
A captivating red form.
That's right.
Watch from above for a bit.
Have a good trip!
Argh~!
Ah~
Kazuko-san.
Ah, Fuyuno-san.
Oh? Where's Riku-kun's bear?
Ah...
Just there.
M-my nose, my nose...
Nose...
My nose...
He's still just an ordinary soft toy to me.
- Shut up.
- My nose got squashed.
Nose, nose, nose...
You smell good.
He's sniffing you.
It's no good, I can't hear him.
Don't push yourself, it's normal...
But I'm supposed to hear him.
That's true.
Because you were the living Yassan's buddy.
Dammit.
Fuyuno...
You care that much...
Such a good man...
Well then, let's go.
Yes.
Riku-kun.
There's something I want to show you today.
Riku-kun, remember this?
Yo, it's me.
It's me! You know, right?
Huh?
It's yours, right, Riku-kun?
3 Months Earlier
On that day, you left it by the sea.
Do you remember anything about that day?
Leave him alone.
Riku's been like that since he came here.
He doesn't speak, or smile.
He doesn't even cry.
Giving a young child such a terrible memory...
That bastard murderer's gotta be caught.
Hey, Kazuko. First we've gotta
thoroughly investigate the motive for killing that couple.
In any case, the cram school guys are suspicious.
Ah.
Watch where you're walking.
Aren't you...
I'm ?hashi, a lecturer from the Takai cram school.
Oh?
Why are you with the detective?
Ah, well, that's...
"I just happened to be visiting Riku-kun."
I just happened to be visiting Riku-kun.
?hashi-san, are you visiting Riku-kun, too?
Yeah...
I was worried, so I brought this.
That's kind of you.
Not at all...
Well then.
Safe.
Excuse me!
I'd like a word with you.
Well?
For now, he's not moving.
Was what ?hashi-san said true?
The intense type like Furuya
get hooked on things and spend all their money.
I wouldn't be surprised if he was in debt to the Takais.
Have you thought of something?
Why can't I hear him?
Ah... Who knows?
By the way, Kazuko-san...
...are you a blood relative of Amano-san's?
T-that's ridiculous!
There's no way I could be.
How could I be a blood relative of a scary-looking geezer like that?
What was that?
But apparently Amano-san's daughter is cute.
Yassan, you had a daughter?
Gotta problem with that?
Ann-chan's had piano lessons since she was small.
So when Amano-san was on stakeouts
he'd listen to Ann-chan's favourite classical music.
Eh~?! That scary-looking guy did?
Ouch. Dammit, Kazuko.
What's more, outside work hours
he'd go to her piano contests and such.
Fuyuno, stop that.
He was embarrassed, so it seems
he always told Ann-chan he had work and couldn't go.
- T-t-that's...
- He was a wonderful father.
If it's you...
I'm sure you'll be 100 million times better.
This is Fuyuno.
Ah, I'll be right back.
Sorry, I have to go.
Y-you're leaving?
- I'll call you.
- Hurry up and go!
- Idiot!
- Maybe we should go, too.
- Eh?
Follow him.
Hey, you're too conspicuous.
Ah. Not in there.
What are you talking about?
Hurry up and go in!
Museum of Sexuality
Excuse me.
What are you going?
Look for Furuya.
Ah... Yeah.
Hey, you're not hiding anything.
Hurry! Hurry and touch me!
Hey, go back in!
- Taking a teddy bear in there...
- Go back!
Thank you.
They'd think a woman alone is weird!
Gaaaa~!!
A- A- A- Ann.
That girl is Ann-chan?
Eh~ She is pretty cute.
Ah~
That damn brat.
Getting cozy with my daughter.
I bet they'll be going in...
Dammit~!
Yes?
Ah... Fuyuno-san!
Eh? Admissions brokerage at the cram school?
What's that? Put me on!
Hey, Fuyuno! Fuyuno!
More details! Fuyuno...
Dammit, he hung up.
That's because he can't hear you.
Ah...
W-wait! Stop!
They'll be the debt collectors.
This is pretty bad.
Repay the money you borrowed.
I'll definitely repay it, so...
Kazuko, pretend the police are coming.
Hurry and do it!
Officer... Officer!
Over here! Here!
I will... I will repay...
Ouch. What was that for?
...In any case, that damn Furuya
has got into that level of debt, huh?
In financial trouble,
it's likely he started brokering admissions to the school.
Ow!
Then the Takais found out and he murdered them.
Unbelievable.
What's wrong with you?
- Huh?!
- I can't do this.
- It's too late to say that.
- I can't help you anymore.
You already decided you would.
What if I get into danger like Furuya-san today?
You won't, don't worry.
I'm saying what if!
In that case, I'll... I'll, you know...
When you can't even dodge tissues?
That's true.
You're right.
What use is a detective...
...who can't protect a civilian?
Are you sure it's okay?
And Amano-san?
Yeah.
Leave me in a corner in the Detective Division.
Leave him in a corner...
...of Riku-kun's room.
Understood.
Bye.
Amano-san, are you really in there?
Yeah.
Yeah! I'm here!
It's no good...
But Amano-san, I won't give up yet.
Fuyuno...
Ah... Ah... Ann.
Ah...
Ah, eh? Ah...
Amano-san helped me out before.
I'm sorry, but...
...how did you know my father?
That's...
I didn't think my father talked about me.
Why not?
He only cared about his work.
That's not true!
How would you know?
Ah...
I just think every father cares about his daughter.
Mine was different.
Even though he's gone,
nothing at home has changed at all.
That's just...
But...
I suppose I can't listen to that.
Hear, hear... Hear, hear...
- Hear, hear, hear...
- Fuyuno...
Hear... Hear...
Fuyuno? Fuyuno?
Fuyuno?
I'll work here, huh?
Thank you very much!
Kumase-san.
Is the cram school closed today?
Yeah, there's a lot going on.
The admissions brokerage.
Whoops.
You knew?
Is it true?
I hate to say it, but...
Furuya threatened the school head over it.
?hashi-san knew everything, and questioned the head.
2 days after that,
the head and his wife...
?hashi-san has blamed himself ever since.
And visits Riku-kun every day.
In any case, there's a USB memory stick.
It seems testimony about the brokerage
and the exchange of sensitive information
is on a USB memory stick like this.
But if the Takais committed suicide because of it,
it should have been among their personal effects.
Perhaps there really was another culprit...
Shoes.
Pardon?
Yassan said it.
"Would someone planning to die go and buy new shoes?"
If they really were murdered...
Riku-kun is in that state.
Giving a young child such a terrible memory...
That bastard murderer's gotta be caught.
That's the same thing Yassan said.
It's frustrating, but I still can't hear him.
The only one who can be Amano-san's buddy...
...is you.
Fuyuno-san...
At this rate, Riku-kun will think his parents
were earning dirty money and killed themselves.
Unless the truth is uncovered,
he'll carry that misunderstanding all his life.
Kazuko-san.
For Riku-kun's sake,
will you help the investigation again?
- But... - If you're in danger...
...I will protect you.
Riku-kun, please,
I want to swap teddies for a little while.
That teddy and I
will work hard for your parents' sake.
Kazuko...
Thank you.
Kazuko, well said.
Ow.
- Yes, there might be
- USB memory stick?
clues to the criminal on there.
In that case, hurry and look for it.
Just a minute...
My throat...is parched!
By the way, I met Ann-chan.
What?
She has some misunderstandings about you.
That's fine, forget her.
But she said she can't listen to it.
Eh?
The CD player.
You fixed it when it was broken, right?
That's broken again?
Right.
Ah!
Stop! Stop! Let go!
- Fuyuno-san!
- Kazuko, help!
- I...
- Huh?
...went through an awful time at his place!
Don't be silly.
I'm not kidding!
He's a genuine occult geek!
Hear, hear...
- Hear, hear, hear...
- Fuyuno? Fuyuno?
- Fuyuno?
- Ah~
Hear, hear, hear...
Hey, what is all this?
What are you doing?
Hear hear hear hear hear!
HEAR!
That's what you meant about not giving up?!
A special charm.
I told you I'd protect you.
This is a power spot.
Now, Kazuko-san, sing with me.
Hey, hurry up and look for that USB stick.
Life is hard.
