Ah... Quiet, isn't it?
It is quiet, isn't it?
- What is it? - Why are you laughing?
- Because we have this free time. - Yes.
What's that about?
Well, it is somehow, isn't it?
Yes!
Yo! Kyoko.
Ichiro-kun...
It's been awhile.
Hello there, Hinako-chan!
Good afternoon!
Drawing as ever, aren't you, Kyoko?
Thank you.
What's up?
Well...
Are you here for Yoko-sensei?
Yes, um...
I'll call for her. Watch Hina-chan a minute.
- Yoko-sensei! - Huh? What is it?
Ichiro-kun is...
Ichiro-kun?
"I got a letter from my big sister."
"Please watch over Yoko-sensei, Ichiro."
"Yes!"
Ichiro-kun.
Hello. It's been awhile.
Um...
Ah... What's the matter?
"Stop being so violent!"
"Who are you?!"
"Please stop being so violent!"
And so Ikuko was taken by the police?
She's still under arrest even now?
Yes.
Seems Nee-chan won't apologize to the police.
"I haven't done anything to apologize for," she says.
And, "why should I repent unnecessarily?"
And the police are really angry and are saying...
"With that attitude of hers, she's not a fit example."
Dad and Mom went to the police station in Tokyo...
...but weren't able to see Nee-chan.
Dad said, "she won't talk to anyone."
Mom said, "Ikuko won't be able to get married anymore," and started crying.
I don't know what to do.
It's frustrating not being able to do anything.
Thank you for telling me.
Thank you.
I wonder what sorts of feelings Ikuko-san is having right now?
Yes.
Why...
...is it only her that these things happen to?
I think what Ikuko says is the truth.
When she says, "I'm not at fault"?
Yeah.
She may try and show off at times...
...but she's definitely not a person who lies.
That's true. You're right.
"I'll stop showing off already."
"I think I pretty much fail at that anyway."
"Yoko..."
Yeah...
Machiko.
Do you remember?
It was back when we were in the Girl's School though.
What is it?
The "one time only" thing.
"One time only"?
What I've just told you might be wrong of her...
It may be an aberrant act.
What do you think, Kazu-san?
I understand what you're saying.
I also know it's something you don't like talking about.
But...
Do you believe it when Ikuko-san says she isn't in the wrong?
Yes.
Dad, Mom, what do you think?
Yeah.
"What do we think..."
If you want to do that, you should.
- Right? - Yeah.
It's for Ikuko-chan's sake, right?
Yes.
Thank you very much.
Yeah. Well, I hope it works out.
That's true.
Yes.
But if you're going to do this, you'll be going to Tokyo, won't you?
Yes.
Ah... You'd have to do that, huh?
Ah... yes.
Excuse my selfishness.
"I wasn't sure if what I was going to do was right of me..."
"...but I thought it best not to tell Shigeki-niisan about it for now."
"Even Ikuko wouldn't have wanted me to tell..."
Tokyo, 86th Ward, number 2253, please.
Hello?
This is Yoko.
Ah... Ah, Grandmother.
Yoko!
I truly am sorry for asking you for this so suddenly.
Not at all.
Your grandfather was on good terms with someone with the Metropolitan Police...
...so I discussed this over with him.
Ikuko-san may go home.
She hasn't done anything wrong, now has she?
I shall provide a background for her.
Thank you very much.
I never would have thought the promise I made to you back then...
...would take this form.
Ah... I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
It was only just one time.
How you used it was up to you.
Maruyama had such a terrible thing happen to it, didn't it?
Yes.
Is everyone as always?
Yes, everyone's fine.
Ah... Thanks to you, Hyakubyakka has opened safely.
Ah, really!
Thank goodness.
Thank you very much.
Well then, shall we go?
Yes.
Ah... Ikuko!
Why?
Eh?
What's the meaning of this, Yoko?
I...
You may go home, Ikuko-san.
Yeah.
Did you ask your grandmother for this, Yoko?
Eh?
Did you?
Yes...
That's right, I asked her for this.
I won't leave!
Eh?
I won't leave!
Not until these people apologize!
I don't like this!
Ikuko...
I don't like it!
