When you watch television, brighten up the room and watch it from a distance.
This city is constantly surrounded by white smoke.
Steam flows out from everywhere, hiding the city within a thick cloud.
No other energy source, other than coal, could be emracted from this land.
For this reason, in this world,
the advancement of steam powered engine technology took a quantum leap.
Taking cover in the white web, numerous thieves
and phantoms have come out of the woodwork.
The people, who live in the darkness and the white smoke,
have branded them disturbers of the peace.
We address this city surrounded by the smoke as... Steam City.
Steam Detectives
I’m gazing at it, I’m feeling it
I’m being watched over by your heart
No matter what's going on, the night you smile
it’s a million dollar night
The echoing footsteps carve out the rhythm of sorrow
The moment I stepped into the white, mysterious maze
Oh set up the game
Even if I’m confused by tricks and I’m frightened
it’ll probably be all right
Everything is a transient illusion, only the two of us are real
I won't give up, I won't abandon hope
I won't be broken until the end
No matter what's going on, the night you smile
it’s a million dollar night
Narutaki Detective Agency
I look at the phone, unable to decide whether to call or not, no, no, boy
Closed today
Coming home after having that fight was probably a mistake
The nice mood from the movie with the happy ending that we saw is totally ruined
''I’m sorry'', I just couldn't say that one phrase
After all, I trust you
I know I love you
it’s so frustrating, not being able to be honest
Closed today
During the date, you said, ''She's cute,'' no, no, boy
And I said, ''He's gorgeous,'' just to get back at you
What in the world are we doing? My new lipstick is going to waste
But even so, I love seeing you from the side, sulking
Narutaki vs. Ling Ling: A Tiny Battle But even so, I love seeing you from the side, sulking
Narutaki vs. Ling Ling: A Tiny Battle I know I’m like this, but please trust me
I know I’m like this, but please love me
We have to hurry and patch things back together
Ding-dong!

Gray Romance of Love and Sorrow
I can't see you in the moonlight so come closer
Just enough so our shoulders touch, at times like this
Ow! Ow! Ow! I’m not needed!
Just say it - emotion -
Sorry to have caused any trouble.
My heart is such a coward
And so, I definitely want you to look for her.
Oh, Mii-chan. Where have you gone?
I hope she wasn't kidnapped by someone by now.
But with a feeling of wanting to embrace tightly
Overwhelming the cramped space in my heart, I had it crammed in there
Oh, I’m so worried.
Though I knew it would probably cause trouble
I’ll even pretend to be sad
Just because I wanted to see you tonight
Notice the feelings I have for you, because I can't say it
I act the same to everyone and pretend to be indifferent
Closed today I act the same to everyone and pretend to be indifferent
it just won't reach - motion - my heart is guarded
it has a flavor that matches your gentle smile.
But if you can steal it, enlighten me
Forgetting even that I’m nearby
Realizing you'd lost me somewhere along the way
So you won't have such regrets
I just want to be nice to you
I want to believe you, no matter what
If you'll give me your smile
No... That's too much...
Those. Those are all the ones you failed with.
Closed today
Suddenly time stands still in the town overflowing with people
You know, I never thought I’d see you, mixed sensations waver
''Long time no see,'' you're surprised
The only thing different about you is that ring on your ring finger
I remember those days
Can't forget your sweet voice
I was serious
it sucks!
Looks awful!
it’s so strange, I cried so much back then
But I’m overjoyed to see your smile now
My hair hanging down my back, swaying in the wind
Back then, it never even occurred to me to grow it out
The vey first gift you ever gave me
I actually couldn't bring myself to throw those cross earrings away
I remember those days
Can't forget your sweet kiss
I was so into you
Nostalgia and a slightly bitter ache
I can now say it's all a memory
I remember those days
Can't forget your sweet kiss
I was so into you
What the?
Nostalgia and a slightly bitter ache
I can now say it's all a memory
Here!
Thanks.
This is your pay. Take them.
Really? Is this all right?
Closed today
Propelled along by a 35km/hr wind
Without a set destination or anything
I can keep my reward of the blue sky all to myself
Maybe it's okay for life to be like this
Even when I’m slacking and even when I’m not
it’s just perfect, having two sides
Let's keep running and humming
Let's create a secret in our own words
And put aside whispered talk and chit-chat
If you start getting lost, send me a signal
Before you get bound up in the weird cool rules
Even on days when things are going well and even when they're not
I keep marking the calendar
Because in its own way, every day is a treasure
That's right, my heart swims like a free fish
The blue map of the future and a 45-degree sea of light
Don't just be caught up in what you can see
Let's keep running, feeling just like this
What?!
I’m gazing at it, I’m feeling it, I’m being watched over by your heart
No matter what's going on, the night you smile
it’s a million dollar night
I’m currently on a diet.
The echoing footsteps carve out the rhythm of sorrow
The moment I stepped into the white, mysterious maze
Oh set up the game
Even if I’m confused by tricks and I’m frightened
it’ll probably be all right
Everything is a transient illusion, only the two of us are real
I won't give up, I won't abandon hope, I won't be broken until the end
No matter what's going on, the night you smile
it’s a million dollar night
Style, style!
We've always watched you walk off, never giving up
You fight without a word of complaint, even when in trouble
Over there.
And that's when the wind envelops you alone
Courage turns into love and brings a miracle
Thanks! That was good!
Our admiration for you illuminates us
You shine when you find something you can't surrender
The strength burning in your heart protects it
With that unyielding spirit, you look straight ahead
Because courage erases sorrow in an instant
Wait!
You are the one who creates the vision of our future
And that's when the wind envelops you alone
Wait!
Stay back! Stay back!
That was pathetic.
On these street corners hidden in smoke, wrapped in clouds
You'll catch the thieves slipping in and out
Please, let me hear your voice on nights when I’m unsure
Everyone in the city is waiting for you
The thrill will always be in my heart
If you'll only smile gently
You must be Mr. Narutaki. Your reputation's well deserved.
it’s like magic that makes everyone happy
The singing in my heart is hope for a bright tomorrow
The answer is sure to be nearby, there's no mystery that can't be solved
He's late.
What's with that face?!
it may be none of my business, but here.
To be continued
Now, this is youth.
I can't see you in the moonlight so come closer
Just enough so our shoulders touch, at times like this
Just say it - emotion
My heart is such a coward
it’s not fit for passionate love
But with a feeling of wanting to embrace tightly
Overwhelming the cramped space in my heart
I had it crammed in there
Though l knew it would probably cause trouble
I’ll even pretend to be sad
Just because I wanted to see you tonight
Preview of the next episode
Yes. Despite my appearance, I’m a detective's assistant!
Though, we're having a fight right now.
I’ve been asked to capture King Steam.
I don't have feelings like that for Narutaki. No, really.
So, just as the novel stated,
you plan to cause an incident in the 23rd precinct.
