"Clone Baby" Episode 6
On the night of July 7th, the Tanabata festival, the clone babies were born.
These clones with the same genes include Aoyagi Masamune,
Kikuchi Hiro,
Katsushika Marika,
Okabe Jotaro,
Mikumo Gota
and Ozu Satoshi.
Their destiny is to kill each other.
That's because two clones with the same genes can't exist.
That's why the clones were burdened with a certain destiny.
That destiny was the Law of Magnetics where no matter how far apart they may be, they're drawn together like magnets.
The red string of fate connects us two.
There is also their destiny to kill each other due to the law of divine providence.
Why do I feel like killing you?
The Tanabata (July 7th) murders have hit our jurisdiction.
We are clone babies!
- I'm the hero! - Die for my sake.
Aren't heroes too strong to die? Gota...!
That was how one star of hope of the clones died out.
Gota! Gota...!
One clone vanished and the target then switched to being this guy.
What in the world were the clones created for?
This life-or-death game where they battle for the one chair creates the destiny of the clones.
Now they are about to make their move.
This is what we found of the corpse floating in the harbor this morning.
His lower body is missing because he was caught in the propeller.
There's no doubt about it. He's the guy who assaulted me.
So we can be certain he's the perpetrator in the Tanabata murder cases.
So we can now say the cases have been solved.
He was probably a clone too. Maybe someone killed him.
- In which case... - If you don't kill them, they'll kill you. - ... was it him?
"Body of suspected Tanabata murderer found"
I wonder why Gota's body was found here?
Gota...
... were you not really dead then?
Or Gota could have been found by someone else here?
Did they then dump him in the sea later?
Who could it have been and why?
"CLONE BABY" 6th CLONE
"Aoyagi household"
- You want to meet Ms. Higuchi again? - Sh!
She's done research on clones. I want to hear about it from her.
She's quit school and I don't know where to find her anymore. Ah!
- Okajo would be able to find her! - Tell me where Okajo is.
What's with your sudden change of heart?
I've decided that I'm not going to run away from it any longer.
The operation was a success. What shall we do with that lady?
Higuchi Riko? I have a good idea.
Hello?
Got it. Please send me a photo of the target.
"I want to tell you where Ms. Higuchi is, but I don't want to be involved in this matter any further."
I'll cook you anything you like, master.
Ah, sexy moves don't work on this guy at all.
"You have a new email from Okajo"
I investigated her mobile phone's GPS location.
It appears that she's in front of Shinjuku Fukutoshin police headquarters.
If you want to know more details, cook me gyudon (beef on a bowl of rice).
We are the community of fate.
Excuse me, are you Higuchi Riko?
- You were the one who wanted to discuss matters? - Yes.
Would you mind waiting a little longer?
- He was in the Koshien baseball tournament. - Ah, they hit the winning home run at the bottom of the ninth innings from his pitch when they were on two outs.
- I can't believe he left the mound... - Yeah, that was him.
Seirin High School is in the lead at the bottom of the ninth innings with 2 outs and the bases full.
On the pitching mound is the ace, Ozu Satoshi.
He winds up...
... he pitches. It was hit...!
It went into the left stands. It was a winning home run with the bases loaded!
Ozu's pitch was hit.
- Apart from that one, your pitching had been perfect. - Eh?
You were wrong to have thrown that final pitch as a close-up.
You ignored the pain in your shoulder to have pitched up till then, which is something to be proud of.
- You know a lot about baseball? - My friend liked it.
Let me tell you this, society will create its own views.
You shouldn't worry about them...
- Masamune! - You didn't see a lady named Higuchi Riko here?
How do you know about her? She came to see me, but she suddenly vanished.
Kanako? Your teacher isn't here.
Like, it seems that she turned off her phone.
He said he can't use GPS to find her now so it'll be impossible.
- No way. - Sorry, but it's an emergency.
- Eh? - I forgot the onions! Buy some on the way home!
"Marika"
Why do I feel like killing you?
"Length of call - 2 seconds"
Sorry, but I don't have anything against you personally.
- What will you do with me? - Someone asked me to do this.
Was it someone from AGEC?
- All I know is that they've promised to fix my shoulder for me. - Shoulder?
The doctor said the only people I could get a shoulder transplant from would be a twin with the same genes as me... or a clone.
No way...
This should be quick now that you understand the conditions.
"Aoyagi Masamune"
Please just listen to me. There's something wrong with me.
I don't know what I might do if I'm near you.
Masamune...
- It's best if we don't meet again. - But I want to see you!
- I want to argue with you here again like we always used to! - We can't.
I... don't want to hurt you.
Is this... the end for us?
Sorry.
Masamune...!
Aren't heroes too strong to die?
Gota...!
I... don't want to hurt you.
What a coincidence. I don't have the energy to stalk you today.
How about staying here... until the rain stops?
No, thanks.
You're crying?
As if!
Just leave.
What are you going to do with me?
Hand you over to them. I have no idea what they'll do with you after that.
I captured the lady as you asked.
Kill her? I should do it?
Is there any value to that guy doing it instead of Mikumo Gota?
This is a test.
- It's not bad, even without the onions in it. - Just hurry up and eat it and then find our where she is.
Where your teacher is? This is footage of the police headquarters taken an hour ago.
Ah, it's her! Someone seems to have drugged her.
This is footage from security cameras around that area in Shinjuku.
Where are they going?
They don't show up on the security cameras after this, so I guess they're under that overpass.
We have to help her!
Is this... the end for us?
"The teacher has been captured by a guy! We think she's here!"
The riverside overpass.
Mikumo Gota was your friend?
He'd been my friend since childhood.
He didn't used to be like that.
But I awoke those instincts in him.
It was all my fault in the end.
I... have no idea what you're talking about at all.
I don't understand, but I sort of understand the feelings of losing someone special to you.
I understand very well the feelings of having a hole left in your heart.
I had this returned to me.
It was supposed to have been a good luck charm for the university entrance tests.
That's what I'd said when I gave it to him, but really it meant more than that to me.
I'd wanted to always be with him.
Just laughing and arguing together.
I'd wanted to always be with Masamune.
It was just as you'd said.
I'd thought it was our destiny...
... but it was only me who thought that.
It has stopped raining.
You can leave now.
You're right.
What would you do if it were real?
- Do you know the in-vitro fertilization company? - Huh?
They take just the eggs that had managed to be fertilized from the tubes and insert them into the uterus.
- What are you talking about? - They discard the other eggs that weren't needed.
- The reason is because they're not human. - Like I said, that is totally irrelevant!
The researcher you're working for thinks you're just like those clones that can be discarded if they're not needed.
He thinks clones exist purely to save the lives of original human beings.
He doesn't even think of you as having a life!
- You're happy to be used by such a guy? - Shut up!
He told me that I am a special being.
Being special is that important to you?
Yeah, it's important.
I really did gain a lot of courage from seeing you continuing to pitch despite the pain in your shoulder.
- To me that made you rather special. - Not everyone in this world is like you!
Everyone only cares about the results!
I'm not going to let this chosen existence end for me.
It seems like this is the only weapon I own.
Don't worry. I won't miss the strike zone.
- If you throw that, it's all over. - Shut up.
- You'll stop being human. - Shut up!
I'll use this pitch to get back for that last ball I threw at the Koshien baseball contest.
As if I know how to kill someone...!
Ozu...
Teacher!
Aoyagi Masamune?
There is only one chair prepared for us.
That strange girl... What's with these strange feelings boiling within me?
- He must have been.... a clone too. - Okajo, hurry up and help her!
Masamune, hurry up!
What are you doing here?
I'm home.
What's up? It's rare for you to be watching that.
You're noticed, haven't you? That there is no birthmark on my arm anymore.
Masamune had the same birthmark as well.
But he started acting weird at about the same time that mark disappeared.
Of course that isn't true.
Tell me... when did that mark appear on my arm?
It appeared suddenly about 3 weeks after you were born.
But I think it's probably best to forget about that birthmark.
You were raised in a loving family. Surely that's enough.
If it was a different child from before and after that mark appeared...
Everything you planned could happen.
Was it you who tried to get Gota to kill me?
Did you do it to take the internal organs of Gota's corpse?
Was it you who dumped his body into the ocean?
You b*stard!
Someday I will come and kill you!
I will pound you into a heap for what you did to him!
- Eh? - What if I'd been swapped with some other baby?
- Stop talking nonsense! - But Masamune told me!
He said that the asterisk mark... was proof of being a clone.
Marika?
Marika? Marika, are you alright?
Teacher... you're safe now.
The change now is because of the law of divine providence.
That guy has been awoken.
He'll come again to try to kill me or some other clones.
As things are, we'll just keep pointlessly killing each other.
It wouldn't have been unthinkable if I'd killed him just then either.
Even if I continue to run, I expect they'll continue to chase me.
Ms. Higuchi...
... I want to stop this fight.
Please lend me your support.
