Kobayakawa wrote a letter of resignation?
Yeah.
Of course, I don't think she wants to quit this job.
I think she plans on staking her career on catching that guy...
Letter of Resignation
Miyuki, it's time for our shift at the reception desk.
All right.
I'm sorry... I had other things on my mind.
She can't tolerate the joyriders, and wants to protect the citizens...
Miyuki sincerely believes that it is her duty as a police officer.
Do you suppose that red car has a grudge against joyriders or something?
Probably.
His motivation seems completely different from the joyriders who race only for fun.
That means his actions may be a challenge to the police.
He's saying that traffic laws are laws in name only.
Could he be playing police officer by attacking the joyriders?
He's no police officer.
He's a wild beast hunting down prey.
Episode 22 Vigilante Racer Part 2
What good is it to impose rules on people who don't obey them?
The light that was always shining before me, was suddenly snuffed out one day...
In the end, laws can't protect anyone's happiness.
Here you go!
Nakajima...
Take a break.
Don't make that face anymore!
This isn't your fault!
Right? Right?
Owowow...
You mustn't move it!
Don't quit, Kobayakawa.
It may be frustrating, but be patient.
We have no choice but to follow Chief's orders.
But we all feel the same way as you.
I wish I could take this thing off!
As you said, maybe I was frustrated...
I was tied down by rules and unable to do what I wanted to do.
But if I don't obey the laws and rules, I'm no different than that red car, am I?
We have our own way of doing things as police officers.
You're right...
In short, he wants details on last night's incident from you
because you're the direct superior of the officers involved.
I understand.
The perp got away because I made a bad decision as their superior.
I will accept any sanction.
Hey, there's no need to ask for sanctions...
About your decision...
Were you confident that you could overcome the special modifications made to the red car?
Yes, Sir...
How's your injury?
Even when the light is
Good. See you!
Kobayakawa...
I was wondering if you'd like to have dinner with me.
You can't cook with that arm, can you?
Well, no, but...
Natsumi went out to eat with everyone, so I'll fix you something.
A-are you sure about this?
I'm going grocery shopping, so go on to my apartment ahead of me...
"Go on ahead of me," huh?!
Hey!
Long time no see!
Dad! Mom!
What happened to your arm?
Nothing...
I bet you got into some silly accident.

Isn't it the same for you, Ken? Sekaijuu Around the world
Call me any time. Sekaijuu Around the world
I'll always be there to help.
N-no!
What? A decoy?
Yes.
If he uses the red smoke on the city streets...
there'll be a high probability of collateral damage and he'll have his choice of escape routes.
In order to prevent that from happening,
I think our best option is to use a decoy car to lead him to where he can't cause any damage.
And you want to drive the decoy car?
Yes.
What if I say no?
Naturally, I would obey your orders.
I am a police officer.
I'll hold on to this for the time being...
Next time, don't do anything without my orders.
I forbid you to take any action at night aside from your normal duties.
Excuse me.
Letter of Resignation
Here you go!
I was concerned about your health, so I made you a nutritious boxed lunch.
Eat it all up, okay?
Thanks...
What's the matter?
Since Kobayakawa can't go after the guy, we have to do our best in her place...
But in my current state, I can't help her if something happens...
Miyuki can't go after the scumbag? What do you mean?
A few days ago, we let the guy get away.
Because of that, Headquarters put a stopper on us.
As a result, even if the guy shows up again, we can't move without permission from the top.
Today was another hot day...
I want to go home quickly and take a shower...
Come to think of it, thanks to that red car, late-night joyriding seems to have decreased.
Even if that's the case, we can't be happy about.
Miyuki's been depressed ever since Nakajima got hurt...
What's going to happen from now on?
All we can do is do our jobs as best we can and leave the rest to Chief.
Wh-wh-what is this?
W-we'd better inform the station!
This is Bokuto Car 3.
A large group of motorcycles came speeding out of nowhere!
What do we do?
Bokuto Police Station to Bokuto Car 3.
We've received similar reports.
Calm down and make sure the roads remain safe.
We have a situation, Kobayakawa!
Why are you so flustered?
We've got a situation, too!
What?
Groups of motorcycle joyriders have appeared all over the city!
What in the world is going on?
Are they lashing out against the red car?
Well, about that...
Bokuto Traffic Section will be under the command of the MPD Special Security Unit...
We are to provide backup.
The orders came from the top.
I know it's hard to accept, but I want you to follow orders.
I cannot.
What?
Using Special Security vehicles to seal off major roads
will cause chaos with trucking and taxi routes.
How will we explain that to the citizens?
Upon apprehension of the perp, our orders are to handle the situation with utmost secrecy.
We have no other choice.
Or are you suggesting there's another way to handle this?
I have faith in the skills of my subordinates.
I believe the best method
is to allow them to assess and deal with the situation on their own judgment.
A police officer's job is always dangerous.
But I can't let you conduct an investigation without a plan.
If you order them in, you need to ensure a way out for them.
That's what a strategy is.
Trusting them is my only strategy.
You...
What?!
You mean Daimaru and his friends are the cause of this?
That's right.
Sena just called to tell me. She asked me to stop them.
I let it slip that you weren't able to pursue the red car anymore...
I'm sorry!
Incoming Call Dad
It's from Dad.
Hey! You're causing us a lot of trouble!
I know it's stupid, but I can't keep quiet. Sorry.
I'm pleading with you to stop!
Look, all we're going to do is drag that scumbag out in the open.
We'll leave you to deal with him.
Speak of the devil... Here he comes.
Give my regards to Miyuki!
Dad!
Damn! He hung up!
He's your Dad, all right. The things he does are crazy!
Too crazy...
The red car appeared, didn't it?
Yeah, seems like it...
If anything happens to Daimaru and the others, it would be my fault...
Yoriko. Aoi.
Keep me updated on the red car's location by radio!
What're you going to do, Miyuki? Don't tell me you're...
I'm going. I don't want Daimaru's efforts to go to waste.
W-wait! You're not allowed to go without Chief's permission!
He's right, Miyuki!
If you create any more trouble, you might put Chief at risk!
Miyuki, let's wait for Chief's orders...
We want to go after the red car as much as you do.
Thank you, Aoi...
But this is a challenge I need to overcome as a police officer.
H-hey, Kobayakawa!
Oh yeah, where's Natsumi?!
She said she was going to the dojo to work up a sweat...
Body Mind Technique
Natsumi! We've got big trouble!
Take a second to Ibe
Nakajima, your motorcycle is here, right?
Yeah. What're you going to do?
Go after her, of course!
Hold on tight!
Right!
I envy you for having subordinates you have such utter confidence in.
I'll wait 12 hours before submitting my report...
It's the best I can do.
Scumbag... I'll bet you don't know there's a ridge ahead.
Okay, here she comes!
Get up! You have to get up!
Get up!
It can't be!
Tsujimoto...
Wh-what're we going to do, Nakajima? Miyuki's...
She's okay.
But...
Kobayakawa is alive!
Hey, what're you going to do? It's too risky!
Kobayakawa is down below...
I have to save her...
This is terrible! I have to call for help!
What? Both Kobayakawa and Tsujimoto?!
And Nakajima went with them!
We were keeping in touch by radio, but we lost contact 30 minutes ago...
Where are you, Kobayakawa?!
Answer me if you're alive!
We'll begin our search as soon as we're ready.
We're counting on you.
The weather in this area can change suddenly; exercise due caution if you're joining the search.
I understand.
We'll join you shortly.
Pull yourself together.
It looks broken.
You win.
Keep still.
I intended to clean up the city in place of you hopeless police.
I don't know what you have against the police,
but we believe we can preserve justice in the name of the law.
Even if you call us "hopeless".
Okay, I'm going for help, so don't move from here.
Not that you could move even if you wanted to.
He said the same thing once...
How can this be?!
Why are we here studying and enduring this training?
Don't you agree, Nakajima?
The police don't have the power to squash even one lowly worm!
Even if you think we're hopeless,
I intend to preserve justice under the law!
Where are you? Where are you?!
No signal here...
All right, let's commence the search!
It's started to rain, so be mindful of your footing.

By the way, Nakajima said he's going back on patrol starting today. Boku wa waraeru darou ashita wa hareru sa Tomorrow is sure to be sunny
Is that so?
That's great...

The next episode is a special episode featuring the two of us!
We're finally getting our time in the limelight!
Serious stories don't really match us, though...
You think so?
I think that I could handle a serious storyline...
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you trying to say I'm comic relief?
Aren't you always spilling tea on yourself?
I don't always spill my tea. Tune in again!
