Lots of snow today.
He's here, sir.
So you're the Golgo 13, huh?
Would you care for a drink?
State your business.
Stop!
Do it slowly.
This is the man I need you to stamp out for good.
His name is Hewitt.
He's the No. 2 of the syndicate.
He's currently in the process of succeeding the prior boss, Wilson, who died in an auto accident.
But I had doubts about that "accident."
I've known Wilson for a long time and he's not a man who would die in such a careless way.
Why was that the only day he drove himself?
Why did those brakes fail?
So I investigated, such as a man like me is prone to do.
I didn't find any hard evidence, but all signs still point to Hewitt.
So I came to my verdict:
Guilty!
Before he died, Wilson built up a considerable sum of gold bullions at a downtown bank.
In order for Hewitt to accomplish his bloodless coup of the syndicate, he will need to spread cash around.
Which means he needs to get his hands on those bullions.
He has two weeks until the syndicate heads come together for the crowning ceremony.
He needs to be eliminated before that date.
But because he fears an attack from the faction of syndicate heads who don't recognize his successorship
he never takes even one step out of his windowless room.
But if he does come out
it would be first thing in the morning of the day of the ceremony when he comes to open the bank vault.
Your chance to shoot him would be when he gets out of his car and heads for the entrance, however...
...it would be damn near impossible to do it.

A GREAT DAY FOR ASH
This time... this time I'll create my brilliant masterpiece...
Oww...
Morning, Ash!
I see it's never too early to go dumpster diving.
We'll help you out.
Here!
Ow! S-Stop that, you morons!
You punks!
Hey, Mr. Garbage Picker!
Fucking kids!
Dammit...
What the hell do you take Ash the Prodigy for anyway?
You'll see...
Once I complete my brilliant masterpiece, you all will want a piece of my genius!
You're too goddamn loud, Ash!
Give it a rest ferchrissakes, you dumbfuck!
Hey!
You're his landlord, right?!
Fucking say something to him!
Gah! What the shit is this?
I didn't rent out this place so you can use it as a goddamn trash heap!
Hey, Mr. Horisky! How are you?
Well I'm sure glad you remember me, Ash.
So have you decided on paying your back rent?
I did promise to pay you once I sell my artwork, didn't I?
Artwork you say?
Who in God's name would ever buy this junk?
Since you're the only mope squatting in this building, I'm forced to walk so many blocks to collect the rent.
Why don't you take your garbage and unass yourself from this place?
Wh... What didja just say?!
Are you calling my creations garbage?!
If it's not garbage, then what are they?
I met with an art dealer named Gabriel during Danny's cocktail party!
He said I had talent and to bring over the best one I have!
Hmph!
It was probably just some drug party!
Huh? What makes you...?
Was it?
Shut the hell up!
Anyway, pay the damn rent!
If you aren't gonna pay, then clear out!
Shuddup!
God, what a shitbird.
If he'd just up and scram, I can finally take this apartment building and...
I'll throw you out myself, goddammit!
Huh.
One day you'll be bragging about how the Ash once lived here.
Until then, quit your whining... huh?
Who's that guy?
What the Christ is that, some fancy-ass vacuum cleaner?
You got no sense of culture? How the hell is this a vacuum?
This is art, my friend.
Art?
It represents the chaos of decadence.
That fucking went right over my head!
Well, it is avant-garde.
Once this is done, I'm taking it to Gabriel.
Oh, have you caught sight of this weird Asian dude about 2-3 days ago?
Come on, it'd be easier spotting someone who ain't weird whenever I'm with you!
Well, from what I saw, I'd say he looks Japanese.
Ohh! That's great 'cause I know a lot about Japan!
A friend of a friend once took a train to Akihabara after returning from the Beijing Olympics!
Get out! He couldn't have gotten there by train!
Akihabara is the capital of Vietnam!
Oh really?
Fine, fuck it all then!
It's ain't like we're ever gonna go there anyway!
What didja say?
We're stuck here forever.
We ain't gonna be leaving this here place anytime soon.
Oh, I will.
Huh?
Ash the Prodigy is not gonna be buried here, not if he can help it.
Once I have the money, I'll be saying "sayonara" to this town!
That dumbass, thinks he has a dream or some shit.
Huh?
So that's the Japanese Ash was talking about.
He'll make an easy mark.
Give up some beer money if you don't wanna get hurt!
He must be a damn black belt!
Damn you Gabriel! What do you mean you were too drunk to remember?
Christ! I looked like a total assclown!
F-Fuck!
Hey, asshole!
Don't be throwing your garbage, you'll hurt someone!
It ain't garbage!
God dammit!
Why doesn't anyone get my genius?
Is everybody I come across some kind of lowlife?
Recognize me, dammit!
Screw off!
I don't got your money! So beat it, Horisky!
Dammit, does he ever give up?
Keep coming all you want, it won't... huh?
Y... You're...
Ash, right?
Uh, yeah.
Ahh, hey!
Hey, hold on!
What's your deal?!
A-Are you... some kind of debt collector?
I don't got the money!
Threatening me won't change that!
Hey! Say something!
What are these?
Huh?
T-They aren't garbage!
How much?
I'm telling you, they aren't garbage...!
Huh? What did you just say?
How much are they?
Uhh... um, t-t-ten...
No-no-no! They're $20,000! Yeah, $20,000!
Sold.
Huh?
You're... saying you'll buy them?
That's right.
You got good tastes, pal!
Ash! Ash!
You in there, Ash?!
I'm coming in!
Hah?
W-W-What happened?
Yo, Horisky!
Huh?
Lobo!
Where's Ash? Where did he run off to?
Oh, Ash made wings to Florida.
Florida?
He told me to give this to you.
Huh?
It's the back rent he owes you.
Where the hell did he get this?
What happened to all his junk?
He sold off all of them just like that.
I also got to share in what he had left.
Say that again?
That guy's a real prodigy, I tell you!
Prodigy?
Your chance to shoot him would be when he gets out of his car and heads for the entrance, however...
...it would be damn near impossible to do it.
Why's that?
That bank is walled off by the surrounding apartments that are closely packed together.
You can't shoot from the outside.
If even if you try to shoot from one of those buildings
the army of guards he'll have on that day will be checking things out thoroughly.
Meaning nobody can get near him.
What I do know is
you're the only person in the world who can pull this off despite those conditions.
Please, Golgo 13.
See to it that the rat scurrying behind those walls receives his death penalty.
I don't believe for a damn second that anyone would buy all that junk.
I'd like to see what such a mook looks like.
Torisky, right?
Wha...
What the hell do you want?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
So you're sure my security is tight?
Of course, sir.
We've deployed the appropriate number of men to the bank.
Not even a kitten can get anywhere close.
We've even assembled young men willing to take a bullet for you around the entrance.
But what if they decide to shoot me from the outside?
No need to worry.
The street in front of the bank is narrow and it's completely walled in.
We've checked out everybody living in those apartments.
It's just thugs, call-girls, their pimps...
...basically just a bunch of lowlifes.
None of them are going to pose any threat to you, boss.
Well, I hope so.
Did you stop to think that a pro might be among those lowlifes?
Don't worry.
If anyone tries to point a gun from one of those buildings
they'll be instantly swiss-cheesed by our machine guns.
Maybe there's some suicidal jamoke out there.
But a pro that keeps an escape route in mind wouldn't do something so stupid.
I get my meals from this street, so I guarantee everything.
Anyway...
Everything will work out if we take care of this.
Nobody will dare oppose me after this.
After this, I will be the syndicate's No. 1, in name and spirit.
That's right.
You already have the syndicate in the palm of your hand...
...boss.
All right, you may go!
Sorry to keep you.
W-What is this?
B... Boss!
Huh?
Over there!
The building behind it!
What the...?
Boss! Boss!
Hey, search behind it!
Hang in there, boss!
Jesus.
Who the hell was that guy?
Not a minute after Ash left, I get a buyer for that apartment building!
God, what luck!
But boy was I shocked when that Asian fella said he'd pay cash!
The way he looks freaks me out, but he must be the God of Fortune!
So he really did it!
That Golgo 13 sure lives up to his fame.
Still, to bring down an entire apartment building while configuring the ballistics...
He comes up with some incredible ideas.
It was a good idea...
...but when that apartment building imploded nobody can see though the dust it created.
During that implosion, it would have taken him a moment's time to aim.
And add to that the range he had to shoot from...
Even if he did come up with a good idea, that man...
Only a Golgo 13 could ever pull off a stunt like that.
No doubt about it.
He's a real miracle man.
So the rumors are true, you are the world's top sniper.
Golgo 13.
I'm telling you girls.
This guy who's obviously loaded comes asking me to sell him my art, not even knowing how much they're worth.
But that guy bought all of them right?
Yeah...
He begged me to sell him everything, what can I do?
Wow, that's so amazing!
Well, he's got pretty good tastes for a Japanese.
Plus he's generous with the dough.
I think I might just take a trip to the Orient.
Once I get bored here, maybe I'll do Japan.
Oh no!
Don't go!
Take me with you!
Huh? Fine, you can all tag along.
Whee!
Yay!
How wonderful!
Really?
Really. But let's hold that thought.
For now, let's raise a glass to the greatest day of my life.
