So this is the black camellia.
Her fortune just went flying.
Yup.
A clock that destroys the owner's fortune...
Miss Nagi! Maria-san!
...and brings them bad luck.
Anyone who obtains it gets cursed.
What're you doing, Hinagiku-san?
That's my line!
Just put something on!
What's going on, Hayate?
What's all the commotion?
What do you think you're doing?!
You misunderstand, Miss Nagi!
Is this bringing me bad luck?
I wonder.
But isn't seeing Hinagiku-san in
only a towel good luck?
Well, if you look at it that way, sure.
What do you mean, "sure"?
You're glad you saw Hinagiku naked?
I didn't say that!
I've seen Hinagiku-san's immodest outfits
quite frequently in the apartment, anyway.
I haven't given you that much to see!
You put up with so much.
Y-Yes.
That's my line!
Hayata-kun and the gang are in Las Vegas, too?
Yeah, they're at that hotel.
Hina-san's tired from the flight, so she's resting.
Oh.
I wanna see them!
Let's go check on them.
Why are you three in Las Vegas?
Well, our flight happened to come this way...
Why are you guys in Las Vegas?
We're dealing with a slight problem.
A problem?
My little sister Tsugumi was kidnapped.
Kidnapped?
Well, "kidnapped" may be a...
What? Nagi-chan's little sister was...
Kidnapped?
Hey! What kind of entry was that?
And why are you guys here?
Stress about the details and you'll go bald, Hayata-kun!
Back to the kidnapping.
That's huge!
Let's call Jack Bauer of the Counter Terrorist Unit!
No, no. It's less of a kidnapping and more of a prank.
A ransom note!
Where, where?
Let me see! Let me see!
We have Ruri Tsugumi. Come to Las Vegas if you want her to live. We'll exchange her for the black camellia. We'll do a trade under the big tree at 9 p.m. on 9/24. Bring the black camellia!
See?
It's not that big of a deal.
It's real!
It's a real kidnapping!
What?
We can't just stand here!
Let us handle this!
We'll arrest the kidnappers!
Arrest them!
No, no. Don't do anything unnecessary!
This is bad, Hayate! Stop those idiots!
Yes, ma'am!
Wait, you guys!
I'm sorry! Are you all right?
Chiharu-san? Kayura-san?
Ayasaki-kun?
Why are you here?
What about you two?
Forget that. Where'd my glasses go?
Um... Uh...
I am so sorry! So sorry!
I'll go and...
Don't worry about it.
No "oohs" and "aahs"!
Now isn't the time!
Hurry, or else those stupid girls will go to the police!
S-Sorry!
Geez.
But seriously, what're you doing in America?
Weren't you gonna relax at home?
I have my reasons.
Reasons?
And what are you guys doing here?
This isn't your hotel.
Right.
We ran into some trouble, so we wound up here by chance.
By chance?
We've got a problem! CTU!
Connect me to Jack Bauer in the CTU right away!
What?
There's no CTU and nobody by that name?
Then we need Rikiya! Call him!
Cut it out!
Listen, everyone.
This kidnapping is no joke.
What has the black suit said?
I understand Japanese a little...
He said, "I'm going to kidnap someone seriously."
Give me back the ransom note.
No, no!
It's hard to get your hands on a ransom note.
I can't do it, Hayata-kun. Not even for you.
"And there is a ransom note, which I wrote!"
What if you lose it?
Huh?!
What a pain in the ass.
I'll take it by force. Forgive me!
No, stop! Stop!
By force...
Stop goofing around!
That tickles! Stop touching me there, Hayata-kun!
Freeze!
Huh?
Hold up!
I-It's not what you think! We were just...
Don't move!
No, um...
A clock that destroys the owner's fortune and brings them bad luck.
What are you thinking?
I'm scared!
Why all the ruckus?
What're you doing?
I'm sorry.
I was trying to get the ransom note back when...
What? If you cause problems here,
we won't be able to deal with Tsugumi later.
Hayate, get out of here!
Y-Yes.
This is going to be hard to fix.
What does he think he's doing?
Excuse me.
Did you see the black suit guy of the public indecency
who had assaulted women around here?
Indecency?
I don't know.
Indecency...?
What is Hayate doing?
It's already 8:30 p.m.
This really is a cursed clock.
Then will I really have
incredible luck when the hands strike eight?
Oh?
What's going on, Ayasaki-kun?
I'm not surprised you're here.
And what airplane trouble brought you here, Teacher?
What are you talking about?
I'm here to gamble for millions in Las Vegas.
See, I even rented a car big enough to carry the riches I could win.
That's nice... Though pointless.
What's with the clock?
This is a cursed clock that brings bad luck to its owner.
Huh?
Why do you have it?
For many reasons.
However, when both hands strike eight,
its owner will have incredible luck.
So if I play the slots right then, I'll win big?
Wouldn't that be nice?
Actually, it's almost time.
Whoa, Teacher! Don't!
I-I won! I'm a billionaire!
What a mess.
That Hayata-kun.
Now, now.
Huh?
Yay, yay! I'm rich!
What's up with Yukiji?
I bet she's up to no good.
I'm gonna quit my job!
Yes, that's right.
I want you to buy the best car out there tomorrow. Please!
Who would've imagined this clock would win me millions?
This clock is the best.
Hey.
Give me everything you've got.
Oh! Found you.
Teacher.
Teacher?
Ayasaki-kun.
Hey, what happened? Where's the clock?
It was stolen with my money.
What?
The black camellia was stolen?
I'm so sorry.
I looked away for a moment, and...
Why weren't you paying attention?
Well, um...
Teacher Katsura showed up, and then on the slots...
The slots?!
Hayate, you idiot!
Tsugumi's life may be in danger, and you're playing the slots?
I wasn't the one playing.
Whatever! Just go get the black camellia back.
O-Okay.
It's almost time for the trade.
You have to find it before then.
If something happens to Tsugumi, it's your fault, Hayate!
I understand!
Weren't you a bit harsh?
Shut up!
It's almost time for the trade.
I'll cover for his mistake.
Cover?
I'll go there myself and take care of it somehow... so...
M-Maria, you go help Hayate.
Please.
It must be hard on Hayate-kun,
with a master who's always getting so angry at him.
Wh-What?
I'm worried about Nagi going on her own.
We'll accompany her.
I can't find it.
America is huge.
What should we do, Ayasaki-kun?
You're asking me? Without any clues, I don't...
Hey, Hayata-kun! Yukiji!
Oh, Hanabishi-san. Asakaze-san.
Do you know where Izumi is?
You mean Segawa-san?
She said she'd thought of a new prank.
And we haven't seen her since.
That's worrisome.
I wonder where she went?
Hello? Hina-chan?
I was hiding in the car earlier, planning to scare Katsura-chan,
but something terrible happened.
Hayate-kun! Big sister!
It's so far.
Are we there yet?
You said it.
I-I think we're getting close.
It's really this way?
I think it's over there.
What's that?
This is the middle of the desert.
That's...
Tsugumi! Where are you?
If you can hear me, answer!
Tsugumi! Tsugumi!
Good evening.
Did you bring me the black camellia?
Who's that?
Well, then...
I'll take the black camellia now.
Sorry, but the black camellia was stolen.
It was stolen.
So I don't have it!
Sto...len?
But Hayate's trying to find it, so...
It was stolen?
I won't let this go so easily!
What's going on?
Shidou!
Tsugumi!
Both of you! Go find the black camellia!
Yes!
Of course.
Tsugumi!
Big sister?
I thought you were kidnapped.
I... Um...
Miss Nagi!
Maria-sama just called.
We located the black camellia.
Really?
Yes, it's...
If that's the case...
Go get it, quick!
Nagi!
Until then, we'll take Nagi Sanzenin as our hostage.
Hey, wait!
Fire Amulet: Bad Ghosts
They've disappeared!
I think we were repelled by that demon's realm.
Demon?
Yes.
She's not a normal human being.
Whether she's a demon or not,
I'll make her regret kidnapping Nagi
right in front of me.
Bad. This is bad.
It's been awhile since Isumi-san's lost it.
Hey, black suit!
Yes!
Call the police right away! Call the FBI!
Catch those thieves immediately!
Y-Yes!
Izumi. Big sister!
Hina-chan!
Why didn't you wait for the police?
Because I wanted to get it back right away!
But once you learned Izumi was safe,
you didn't have to act on your own.
It's my money!
Hello?
Ayumu?
When are the police getting here?
I think in about 10 minutes.
Tell them to hurry.
Hey! We have to go before the cops get here!
By the way, Segawa-san.
Yes?
Did those guys have a clock?
It looks like a pocket watch.
I think a guy with blond hair in a ponytail has it.
A guy with blond hair in a ponytail?
What? T-Tsugumi-san?
We didn't have the time to get away with the money?
We went through a lot of trouble to steal it after all.
That's him!
Wait, Tsugumi-san!
My money...
The black camellia is mine!
Mine!
Be careful, Tsugumi-san!
Hayate?
