There must be some mistake. Sakaki, a spy?!
Look at this file, Minamoto.
It's a photo taken by accident by BABEL staff.
He may be having a clandestine meeting with one of the Normal People.
Impossible!
That's right. There's no way Sakaki would!

Daitan!
Wait! I haven't even said anything...
But you were thinking it, right? That the monster's come.
I can read your mind. Why don't I read it now?
Oh, so someone stole the essay with ESP, huh?!
Oh, and monsters shouldn't be born?!
Shoulda known I could never get along with guys like you!
Sakaki!
You're Japanese, too?
You think preaching to me in Japanese will get me to reconsider?
You're psychometrist, aren't you?
Of course you're good at fighting,
seeing how you can read an opponent's moves in advance!
Maybe you want a piece of this too, kid!
Go ahead.
When you touch me, you'll know what's in my heart.
Everyone carries weakness in their heart!
The fear that someone's better than they are.
Even when everything you do is better than anyone else!
You're not a child,
so why don't you think about others instead just yourself?!
Well... When you put it that way...
I guess you're right.
He did that on purpose to make me read his mind.
Must be an esper researcher.
Even though he's younger than me...
22nd sense. "Create a Learning Environment! Minamoto's Been Gunned Down?!"
Sakaki can't be a spy.
In any case, you will conduct the investigation of Sakaki...
Or, rather, Miss Sannomiya will.
Have Shiho do it?!
Please, Minamoto.
I refuse!
I trust Sakaki!
But Minamoto...
I'll investigate Sakaki by myself! But Minamoto...
I'll investigate Sakaki by myself!
And I'm convinced I'll find him absolutely innocent!
M-Minamoto...
What?! Undress?!
Well, I think you just have a cold,
but I'm getting a little tingle from my clairvoyance.
There's nothing to worry about at this stage.
Wh-What is it? Not something serious, right?
That's it!
I must thoroughly reexamine you to discover this as quickly as possible!
R-Right!
Don't lie! You don't need to undress.
All he needs is to just touch you.
You creep!
Even you can't barge in during an examination!
I can't ignore sexual harassment!
Lighten up!
Can he really be a spy?
You have to do your job seriously, right?
I am! My diagnoses are absolutely spot on!
Anyway, come out with me tonight.
I found a bar with a ton of cute gals there!
I figured even you might want to cut loose once in a while.
Okay.
I know, you'll just blow me off and say you have to watch The Children, but...
WHAT?! Wh-What did you just say?!
I'm going. You don't have to go nuts over it.
Ugh, I'm so sick...
That's what I get doing this for a week straight.
Yes! I am the king!
Nothing especially strange has happened over the past week.
Sakaki, I trust you!
Agh! What's that doing there?!
Minamoto!
You smell like booze and perfume!
What's this card from an adult club?!
You've got lipstick on you!
Dinner was cold tonight! Come home to us! Where've you been every night?!
Are you my wives?!
It's for work!
I don't like going out drinking every night!
Grownups have all sorts of social obligations!
Sure.
I believe Mr. Minamoto.
Sorry, but I'm using a clairvoyance protector.
Don't peek into other peoples' minds, okay?
Meaning...
You're begging us to go after you for real?!
Make him spill it, Kaoru! Shiho!
Roger!
You think some electronic protector can stop Level 7 clairvoyance?
Stop! This is a work-related secret!
Scanning me will be a serious violation of regulations!
Having said that, good night!
Who's calling at this hour?
Kaoru? What's up?
Have mercy on me!
What are you saying, you idiot?!
We've been doing this for a week straight!
My body can't hold out!
This is different from all the other times!
Because this one's gonna be for my impossible heart's desire!
A group date with BABEL's lovely esper receptionist team!
I've waited six months to get a dinner date with Doubleface,
and they went and asked us out!
It's either you and me both or it isn't happening!
Please!
I'll never get another chance like this!
Right... I could play this another way.
Sakaki, a spy?!
No, he's just under suspicion for now.
I don't believe he is.
During the date, I'm going to get him drunk
and I want you to use that chance to scan him.
Natsuko.
I'm sorry! I promise, I'll take you out for dinner some other time!
It's not that, Minamoto.
The truth is, we also...
He has to be hiding something!
He may have gotten himself a girlfriend!
You've got a thing for Mr. Minamoto, don't you?
So we want you to help us.
Those girls...
What do we do?
They'll be following you, won't they?
You guys look worried.
K-Kugutsu?
Anything a humble puppet master like me can do to help?
That's right! You're a puppet master!
We're home!
Move it! Don't be late!
Oh, my hair! Ow!
Darn it, it's stuck!
I'm home!
What's he doing?
Minamoto, aren't you going out tonight?
No, I decided not to. Let's just watch TV tonight.
This isn't Mr. Minamoto!
A puppet?!
The power to imprint a puppet with thought
and manipulate it via psychokinesis...
Mr. Kugutsu!
You're a lifesaver, Kugutsu!
Please, no need to thank me. That was a piece of cake.
Right, Moga-chan?
I broke up with them ages ago!
No way!
Like hell he did.
So not true.
And so, here's to deepening the relationships of us young staffers!
Cheers!
Okay, let's drink!
Don't drink too much. You know how you regret it afterwards.
What, trying to be the good little girl here, now?
Uh, not that. Today, we're...
No, no! You've got us with you tonight!
Um, I've always wanted a chance to have a nice chat with Minamoto.
Hey, Hotaru! You trying to pull an end run?
Hee-hee!
Don't just go "hee-hee"!
I'm not pulling any end runs.
Tonight does not bode well.
So, a group date with an odd number of people?
It's fine! I called another girl to come, too!
Another girl?
Sorry, I'm late!
Naomi!
It's okay, we only just started!
You like 'em young, right, Minamoto?
What are you implying?!
So, it's true. Minamoto, you're a ped...
No, I'm not!
Well, Shiho?
It's no use. Mr. Kugutsu's a high-level esper,
so it's hard to scan him with our limiters engaged.
And we can't contact Doubleface, either. Now what?
Dammit!
Minamoto's probably having a ball right now!
Mr. Minamoto, you perv!
Give it a rest.
Mr. Tanizaki!
The Children?!
You weren't with him?
Wait, Naomi!
As your future husband... I mean, as your guardian,
I cannot allow a minor to go on this sleazy date!
I won't permit it! Office romances are absolutely off limits!
Enough already, you pervert supervisor!
I told you, I'm helping Mr. Minamoto on an important mission!
Help Mr. Minamoto?
Which means...
Dr. Sakaki is a spy?!
Minamoto insists it's not true.
That idiot. Why didn't he tell us?
He didn't want you getting mixed up in a mission
where he'd have to suspect his best friend.
Minamoto was very firm in his decision to handle this himself.
The limiter release?!
Kaoru, where are you going?!
Dr. Sakaki's not a spy! I'm going to prove it!
Minamoto said he wasn't, right? Then he can't be!
W-Wait!
This dish is so spicy!
You don't like spicy food, Naomi?
Sorry, I'm afraid so.
What's up?
I gotta go to the men's room. Hold down the fort, okay?
You really want to peek in on him?
Sorry! Please!
What's wrong?
Hotaru, transfer the image to Minamoto.
Gotcha.
The list of special espers.
The reward will be as promised, correct?
Understood.
Sakaki... Why?
This clearly proves that Shuji Sakaki is a spy.
Now what, Minamoto? If you don't arrest Sakaki quickly...
No, something's wrong here.
What on Earth is..?
This dish is so spicy!
You don't like spicy food, Naomi?
He shouldn't like spicy food, either!
What's wrong, Minamoto? If you won't do it, then I will!
Minamoto!
Take good look.
Puppets?
Don't move, Kugutsu!
You were the traitor all along! Why do this?!
Sakaki would die a traitorous spy.
And in that way, I would have my revenge.
Don't tell me... Everyone here is a puppet?!
Nowaki, call Naomi to us!
Forget it.
I already immobilized her with esper cuffs.
That just leaves a Normal and two scanners.
You lose.
You're going to shoot me? I don't care.
Because the "me" here is also a puppet!
Inside!
Where is the real Kugutsu? He must be nearby!
It's no use! I can't see him from here!
What's wrong?
It's Sakaki's psychic waves!
Sakaki! Are you all right?!
No, but I'm still alive.
Hurry. He shot me a while ago.
What's wrong, girls?
You heard it?
Yeah!
Call out to The Children.
Huh?
He's jamming communications, but telepathy should still work.
Minamoto!
It's no use. Even if they came, I don't have the limiter release.
Why not?
This mission was to suspect and possibly arrest a friend.
As their guardian, I didn't want them getting involved!
Aren't we always telling you to not treat us like little kids?
Because, whether we're adults or kids...
we're still a team!
You're right.
I was wrong.
If you'd be so kind.
I'm glad you put it that way.
Special espers The Children...
Released!
<>
Spies have no future!
And we'll teach you that with our own hands!
Right! BABEL's own gutter sweepers!
The Absolutely Lovely Children!
Now, fight by my side!
Roger!
So, you're still alive. I didn't anticipate that.
Because of that, The Children have come.
Hold it!
PSYCHIC FISHERMAN'S THROW!
Esper countermeasures?!
Not just that! She's full of gimmicks!
Because I put all of my love into her!
Gross!
Cosplay?!
No!
It's just dressing up!
No matter how scaled up, Moga-chan is dress-up doll!
I can't just ignore that aspect of her!
Go get them, Fully Loaded Grade Moga-chan!
Yes, Master!
There's more where that came from!
Cut it out!
Hang in there, Sakaki!
I used my weak psychokinesis to slow the bleeding,
but the bullet's deep in my cardiac blood vessels.
You need to give me emergency treatment, right here!
If the three of you help, it'll be possible.
Us?
I screwed up!
Kaoru!
Yes, Moga-chan! Fantastic!
Found it! I've confirmed the bullet's location!
Transfer the image to Naomi.
When I give the word, I'll stop my heart for two seconds.
Use your Pk to remove the bullet then!
Right!
Playtime's over!
Moga, firing!
Idiot.
PSYCHIC ONE-SHOT KILL!
Your esper countermeasures won't do much against a real, live missile, right?
I'm such a klutz! Dammit!
It worked!
I'm saved.
It shows that, when espers work together, they can do amazing things!
Sakaki.
Let's get him to the hospital!
Let's leave that to Aoi.
Right!
It's a shame you turned out to be a spy.
Did that really happen?
Of course it did!
It happened back in Comerica?
You really can't remember?
I'm kidding. How could I forget that?
But didn't what the girls said to you
remind you of what you once said to me?
You're right.
You're not a child,
so why don't you think about others instead just yourself?!
Because, whether we're adults or kids, we're still a team!
Man, you are gonna make someone a great wife.
No! It's just a habit I have! The girls like them like this!
Yoo-hoo!
Still alive, Dr. Sakaki?
We came for a visit!
Oh, kids! You came!
By the way, how'd you know we were there?
Elementary!
I have a thousand ways to know where Naomi is!
And you're about to tell me all of them!
Oh, apple rabbits!
They're cut really nicely!
Can we eat them, Minamoto? Come on!
Stop that! I made them for Sakaki!
