We have an unwavering bond
You are one of a kind. You're my best buddy
I don't need brakes
A sign of invincibility. Full throttle
The asphalt spread out
Happy-go-lucky blue skies
Trouble happens every day
Take aim, and start the ignition!
Our eye contact
Creates mighty power
Wherever we go, we are unrivaled
We won't give up so easily!
It can't be measured
In terms of love and romance
We're a team without vague rules
We have an unwavering bond.
You are one of a kind. You're my best buddy
Even when walking a tightrope
If you speed up, it's checkmate!
Enjoy your drink! I'll have a snack ready soon...
Another hard day's work comes to an end...
Beer sure is great after a bath!
Done...
Huh? Natsumi?
Did you say something?
What? Are you already drunk?
Yeah! Good beer kicks in quickly!
But you've only had one... What's the matter with you today?
Nothing...
It's all good!
Natsumi?
Could it be?
Oh no! You're burning up!
You're kidding...
Why would I joke about a thing like this?!
That's true...
But I'm fine, I'm fine...
Once the alcohol kills the germs, I'll be good as new...
You know better than that!
No, it will!
Listen, Miyuki, Natsumi Tsujimoto isn't going to be beaten by a cold virus...
Or not.
Episode 17 Natsumi Tsujimoto's Dream-Like Day
Does such a frightening virus exist in this world?
It's unbelievable!
Natsumi is only human. She catches colds, too...
If we caught a virus like that, we'd collapse on the spot.
Is Kobayakawa sick in bed as well?
No, Miyuki went with her to the hospital in the morning, so she'll be here around noon.
I hope Natsumi gets better soon.
Tsujimoto has a cold, huh?
Is this the perp?
Yes. We're calling him "Spider".
The guy jumps freely between buildings.
He easily enters high-rise condominiums through their verandas.
He strikes mostly between noon and sunset.
But our eyewitnesses can't identify the perp, so we can't go after him.
All right, we'll step up security in our precinct.
I'll have my people concentrate on buildings standing close together and back alleys.
Did you want to see me?
Kitchenette
It's lonely staying at home alone with a cold...
I know the feeling!
It feels as if all of your energy suddenly leaves you...
When I have a cold, I place flowers around my bed and imagine that I'm in a world of flowers.
That's a little extreme, don't you think?
You think so?
When I have a cold, I want a sweet and wonderful guy by my side...
Are you all right, Yoriko?
He'll help me with my meals, my medicine, everything...
This is so embarrassing!
Hot! Hot!
Yoriko, you're the one with an over-active imagination.
Based on the burglary reports we have so far,
we have a general idea of what kind of condos Spider targets.
We want to ask the residents for their cooperation,
but having my guys make the rounds may not be the best idea...
Female police officers would definitely be more suitable.
If we spot him, all we can do is follow him until he comes down.
Of all the times for your partner not to be here...
I'll do the best I can.
All right, let's begin here.
Umm...
This building has two units on the third and fifth floors.
Excuse me. We're with Bokuto Police Station...
Right about now, Natsumi must be sleeping all alone, feeling lonesome...
No way. That's impossible.
Natsumi is the last person who'd feel lonesome.
She's probably having a dream about food.
Wow!
I don't get to go to restaurants like this very often...
Ms. Tsujimoto.
Thank you for coming to our restaurant today.
Huh? Chief?
What're you doing dressed like that?
I am the manager here. I am not "Chief".
Is that so? Well, okay...
Come to think of it, people often say that dreams are the mirror to the soul.
Oh? Aoi, you sound like an expert.
In your dreams, the answer you are searching for is represented in another form...
Whoa!
Hamburger steak, curry and ramen! All my favorites!
That makes deciding really difficult!
But I hate having regrets, so bring them all!
Y-yes, ma'am.
For example, if you dream about food,
it means that your mind or body is seeking something.
What that thing is depends on what you eat.
Oh?
It's too bad that Miyuki and the others couldn't make it!
I'll just have to eat for them!
Excuse me, ma'am...
What is it?
This is quite difficult for me to say,
but circumstances have forced us to close for business today.
H-how could that be?! Why?!
Well...
As you can see, for some reason, our refrigerator is empty...
N-no way...
I'm so hungry!
I think I just had a bad dream...
Miyuki...
Of course she's not here...
Oh, it's lunchtime... No wonder I'm feeling hungry...
No way...
I'm so hungry!
Her satisfaction with her current job is reflected in whether she's full or hungry in her dream...
You're pretty awesome today, Aoi.
How do you know so much about this?
To tell you the truth, I've recently taken up oneiromancy.
Criminals like this often target previous victims
because they have a special attraction to the crime scene.
The victims don't expect, or want to think, that they'll be repeatedly targeted.
They may feel nervous immediately following a break in,
but their desire to forget about the incident puts them off-guard.
That's what the perp takes advantage of...
Please be careful.
Yes, I will. Thank you for coming by.
One more unit upstairs and we're done.
S-Spider?
Miyuki?
That has to be Spider!
We're going after him!
Right!
What is all this?!
Why're there so many illegally parked cars?!
It's dangerous to drive like that! Pull over!
No one has ever managed to escape my Motocompo!
This feels so good!
Give up!
If that's how you want to play...
Darn you! Open up!
Open it, I said!
Why won't it open?
I think I just had another really bad dream...
Chilling!
I need to eat something...
Anything...
Didn't we have instant ramen?
Right now, I don't think I can be picky...
Why won't it open?!
Today, I feel tired even when I stay in bed...
But I have to stay in bed to get well...
He descended beyond that red building on the right!
Right! There's a parking garage there!
Pay Parking Lot
If only Natsumi were here...
Pay Parking Lot
Say, wasn't Natsumi's condo just up ahead?
Shall we pay her a visit?
I know, let's ask what sort of dreams she's been having, and you can tell her what they mean.
Yes... I hope they're pleasant dreams.
This feels great!
Hey Tsujimoto! Hurry and climb on up!
Yes, sir!
Okay, here I come!
You found me!
What're you doing there?!
You're definitely acting suspicious!
What's your problem?!
A nutcase like you has no right to laugh at me!
I'll show you!
Yes, we were fairly certain it was him. We tried to pursue him, but...
Yes, you're right. If he takes our bait, we've got him.
Miyuki, that guy we saw... He was Spider, wasn't he?
The way he nimbly hops from building to building is incredible...
It's no wonder they call him "Spider".
There's still time until the sun sets.
Spider is sure to appear again.
Hey... Wait!
Catch me if you can!
Here I am! Over here!
What's that?
Again?
Miyuki... hurry and come home!
Miyuki! I'm getting a signal on the GPS!
He's headed west from Bokuto Park Heights at Block 5!
He's not getting away this time!
I spent it all yesterday at the convenience store...
This isn't even enough to get anything delivered...
It's already evening...
I've been having nothing but strange dreams...
It's so nice and cool...
Maybe I'll give Miyuki a call and have her pick up something for me on her patrol.
Hey, you! What're you doing there?
I've been seen!
What's the deal with that costume?
That's definitely suspicious!
Huh?
Hey!
This is bad!
He's going down!
Darn!
You're not getting away!
Made it!
Huh?
That's odd... I'm sure I got here before him...
Uh-oh...
My head is spinning...
You little!
So you want to play detective?
Ouch!
Dammit! Let go!
You bitch!
What's so funny, dammit?!
I hate people laughing at me more than anything!
Th-this can't be...
Natsumi?!
I feel alive again...
The perp Miyuki was tracking came here... What an amazing coincidence!
And what's more, it happened exactly as you dreamt it...
It had to have been a prophetic dream.
Despite being called "Spider",
the guy you caught turned out to be nothing but a panty thief.
How lame is that?! Makes me laugh!
His luck ran out when he grabbed the GPS tagged underwear that Miyuki had planted.
And he had the rotten luck to be found by you.
By the way, are you feeling better?
Huh?
Yeah... It seems a good sweat fixed me right up.
That's almost too perfect!
That's Natsumi for you!
You think so? It was nothing.
Good morning!
I apologize for the inconvenience I caused everyone yesterday.
As you can see, I'm fine now...
Oh dear...
Did you all catch it from me?
Yes.
Nikaidou and Aoi brought it back, then everyone caught it.
When I got back to the station yesterday, I suddenly got the chills...
This is just what I would expect of Natsumi's cold virus...
S-stop exaggerating... Not everyone caught it...
I search through my pockets
And take out my only red apple
Without hesitation I place it
In the hands of my other half
I want to be so kind
The opposite of bravado
When we quietly place our backs
Against each other
It feels like we've become a complete person
We play with sparklers out of season
Stay with me until the small flame goes out
Under the moonlight
What was it now?
What's the matter, Yoriko?
Well, I had this wonderful dream last night, but I can't seem to remember how it ended.
What sort of dream was it?
I was surrounded by handsome guys who fawned all over me.
Yoriko, your tea!
Hot! Hot!
Oh yeah, I spilled my tea at the end!
