You said to find you more easy jobs, so good luck with them .
Do your best!
Episode 3, Neres, would you have good business?
Please. . . Please get my money back!
lt's as l said. . .
Well . . . Please calm down, Maachin-san.
lt's important money for my daughter's wedding.
l thought she'd finally be able to be happy. . .
For something like this to happen. . .
l just. . . l can't. . .
Umm. . . Can you tell us what happened?
Sure.
lt happened yesterday.
On the way home after withdrawing the money from the bank. . .
Thief!
An F-numbered bike. . .
Which means. . . it's area of registration is in the Shingai section of Downtown . . .
The money l finally managed to raise through scrimping and saving . . .
And, all of it, just like that. . . How much was there?
ln all, 1 44,989 Rima.
That's terrible!
1 40-thousand and change. . .
Umm . . . umm . . .
Please. . . in the week left before the wedding . . .
Even if l went to the police, they have no idea when they'll find it. . .
l'll do whatever l can to thank you. . .
Please get it back!
Within one week?
Even hearing that. . . we have many jobs right now, so. . .
Umm . . . Please!
Please, please, please! lf you don't. . .
While we really understand how you feel, we. . .
Umm . . . Could you let me do it?
Don't you have other jobs to do? l'll make sure it doesn't cause any problems!
Umm . . . Then. . . my request. . .
Our customer's smiles are our happiness!
Thank you very much.
He rides around in that junky old car. . .
There's little hope of any pay.
lt's a pretty large area. . .
Are you okay with taking on more work. . .?
lt's okay! We have a wonderful assistant here!
lt's nice to work with you !
< You must get Maachin's 1 449989 yen back during one week >
Excuse me. . . Have you. . .
Excuse me. . .
Umm . . .
What do you want?
l'm sorry. . .
Why are you apologizing to us?
Umm . . .
We won't know if you don't talk! Did you wet yourself?
Stay right there. . .
lf you tease her too much, she'll get pissed !
No!
Long time no see, Shizuka!
Long time no see.
l wanted to see ya ! How's work?
l'm pretty busy. . .
Umm . . .
You know, she just joined Neres, and is my new assistant, Maia.
Be nice to her!
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. l'm Mizuki Maia.
And so we're searching for someone. . .
Have you seen a guy on a scooter who suddenly got rich yesterday?
Dunno. . .
lf we saw someone like that, we'd just take it all from him .
We'll contact you if we see anything .
Thanks. . .
So, you wanna buy it?
Not today.
Hi! lt's been a while. How's the cake?
Oji-san, we'll have two large orders of the dumpling dish.
Sure! Don't hold back. The ramen here is the BEST!
You really know a lot about this area, don't you, Shizuka-san?
lt's because l was raised around here. . .
lt's as though it's my backyard ,
and the people living here are like my family. . .
Hearing you say that makes me happy, Shizuka-chan. . .
Here ya go.
You're tired, l suppose.
No. . .
Well, just a little. . .
ln the end, we couldn't even find a clue about the thief on the bike. . .
We didn't get any information from asking , either. . .
We'll widen our search area tomorrow. . .
. . .and change our search time. . .
By doing so, we might find a clue.
You really like working for Neres, don't you, Shizuka-san. . .?
l guess so. . .
lt's kinda tough, but helping our people who are in trouble. . .
. . .isn't a bad job. Right?
Don't you agree?
l see. . .
What's this?
lf you're Shizuka-chan's assistant, then it's a gift from me.
Do your best!
Thanks.
How nice. . .
Gimme some more, too!
Right away.
You're going to eat MORE?
Alright!
Sorry. l overslept!
Morning'.
We'll catch him today for sure. . . that grab-and-run thief!
Okay!
Before you get started, what about THAT?
Hello!
< Receive rent- urgent very much>
l'm the one from the other day. . .
. . .who was representing Nakamura Real Estate.
You're six months late with paying the rent. . .
lf this continues. . .
You're sure loud for so early in the morning . . .
l'm sorry. . . He's not there. . .
You wouldn't happen to know where he went, would you?
l don't think he'll be coming back. . . lt was two days ago, l think. . .
He was all excited 'cause he found a lot of money or something . . .
He was spouting stupid puns and jumping around like a fool.
Something about 1 40-thousand and change. . . What a moron.
1 40-thousand and change is. . .
As l thought, he isn't here.
Look around over there.
We might find some evidence. . .
Maia! Tadah !
Doesn't it look like the jacket which Maachin said the criminal was wearing
lt does! lt does!
Who knew that the criminal was this close. . .
But, there's no point if we don't get the money back. . .
There's also no point in saying that and giving up.
Anything will do. . .
We just need to find something which would point to where he might go.
A math teacher?
Hello?
Oh. . .
lt's about that rich guy you were talking about yesterday.
We saw someone like that.
Where? Where?
Yay! Thank you !
Watch the rear.
Okay.
You're the only one who knows what he looks like, so search thoroughly.
Okay. . .
OK! Betting on my wife and two hundred on Black Four.
Come on ! Come one! Come on ! Come on ! Come on!
lf l'm thrown out of the apartment, who knows what kind of suffering my baby. . .
daughter will endure. . .
Crap!
lt's him , eh?
We'll surround him from both sides.
According to my calculations, this time, it's Red Fifteen !
What are you doing?! Are you grabbing my luck!?
Gambling with stolen money, Don't you think it's inexcusable to your daughter!
l'm representing Nakamura Real Estate!
lf you don't wanna get hurt, you'd best return the money.
They aren't fooling around !
Chase him !
Shizuka-chan !
Bike thief!
This is perfect!
Umm. . . These are. . .
We'll return them later, so it's fine!
He's a fool to think he can escape me in this city!
Found 'im !
Don't worry. . . We'll catch him for sure!
We'll get off here.
Come on. Hurry up!
Hurry up and what?!
lf we're not quick, he'll get away!
Umm . . .
GO!
Wahoo!
Score! Found him !
Hey, Maia! l found him !
Okay!
lt'll be fine. Just follow me.
Long time no see, Oji-san !
Yeah. l see you're working hard !
Go around that way.
Okay.
Stop!
Excuse me!
Oh! Shizuka-chan ! Long time no see!
Where'd he go?
You idiot! Move it! Move it! Move it!
Geez. What's WlTH them. . .
You're surrounded . . .
Now, behave well and give up!
Move! lf you don't, l'll cream you !
Shizuka-san ! Run!
Shizuka-san! !
Shit!
He got away from us, huh?
What are you saying?
l told you this area was like my backyard !
Serves 'em right!
He was wrong to think he could escape from me in this city!
Everything's taken care of!
Nice job catching yourself! Now, l'll have you return the money!
l don't have it. . .
l used it all at that casino!
According to the statistics, l'd make a profit for sure. . .
Why am l so unlucky!?
Shit! Take me to the police or whatever!
. . .'Cause my wife and daughter ran out on me,
and l have noting good going for me! !
l see. . .
Sorry that we couldn't help. . .
l've caused you a lot of trouble. . .
Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.
You don't have time to slack off.
After your break, you have another job to do!
Okay. . .
l'm sorry. . . The motor suddenly just stopped .
l'm sorry. . . l'm causing you problems until the end . . .
lt looks like it's the end of its lifespan. . .
When l'm unlucky, l'm unlucky all the way. . .
That's not really true.
lt's a Picard Motors DS-9 convertible.
l'd only seen one in a catalogue. . .
Type P7. . .
The motor's okay, right?
The connection between the battery cell and the generator is bad.
lt's wearing down here and there, but the engine is. . .
. . .okay!
Now, let's get busy!
So, this is our reward this time. . .
l guess this sort thing is okay once in a while.
But aren't you happy?
That Maachin could sell his car for THAT much. . .
For a vintage car like that, it was a pretty good price.
That's because you were able to repair it so well !
Umm . . .
How can l ever thank you for this?
We've already had our fill of thanks!
We were just doing our jobs.
And, also. . .
Our customer's smiles are our happiness!
Just you wait, Rena !
ALRlGHT! LUCKY! !
[Preview]
lt's me, Maia!
The bride sure was pretty!
Maachin-san also looked really happy!
Although work is hard, and Rena-san is scary. . .
Still, Neres is a little. . .
lt's not that, Grandpa! My goal will always be The Ocean Agency.
l'll do my best at Neres and my studies!
And, next year, l'll be accepted for sure!
So watch over me, okay, Grandpa?
Next time: Full of restlessness.
To be continued .
