Greetings! Greetings!
Good morning.
When do you suppose we'll be able to live without soliciting?
If we hit pay dirt just once, there'll be so many customers...
Excuse me.
Brief...
Briefcase...
My... my briefcase! Please get it back for me!
Itsukawa Commerce...
Mr. Sasakida...
It was last night.
My overtime ran until midnight, and I hadn't even had dinner.
On the way home I stopped by a family restaurant and there...
...and it's not like I have to go out and play, right?
Normally, I never do things like that.
But yesterday, something unpleasant had happened at work,
and I was a little angry.
You... you girls...
You're a little loud, you know. You should be quiet.
I couldn't handle staying there, so I escaped to the bathroom.
But...
When I went back after a little while...
You're saying the briefcase was gone?
There were important company documents inside that briefcase.
If I don't deliver them today to the signer,
there's no telling what will happen to the company's future, let alone the contract,
or even my own life.
Did you consult people from your company?
How do you think I should tell them?!
If the company knew about this, I...
I...
I'll pay any amount of money!
If two million will do it, I'll use my savings and make it work.
No, even if I have to borrow money I'll pay you!
So please!
What do we do, Ban?
At any rate, it looks like there's nothing to do but to try asking those high school girls.
Well, we'll confer again about the fee.
Thank you very much!
But Ban, how are we going to look for those high school girls?
Well, just leave it to me.
This is it! This uniform!
Oh? Let's see.
Meiyou Private Academy girls' uniform.
Okay, got it.
So, any other special characteristics?
Special characteristics?
Hairstyles, things they were carrying, stuff like that.
Let me think...
A bear...
A backpack that looked like a red teddy bear!
That wasn't a bear, it was a cat!
He's so cute!
What are you talking about?
Which one of you is called Riko Tachibana?
Riko Tachibana!
Riko!
Riko, someone to see you!
She's cute!
You guys were in the family restaurant at the West Exit last night, weren't you?
Dunno.
Our client saw that red backpack of yours.
Dunno.
He warned you guys to be quiet, didn't he?
Oh, that annoying guy.
Dunno.
Why, you...
Hello!
Nothing really.
Some weird guys caught me, and...
No, no, they're not picking me up.
Huh? I'm telling you, it's not like that that.
What's that supposed to mean?
Right, right.
Hey!
What are you doing?!
Listen to people when they're talking to you!
Geez!
I'm telling you I dunno!
You sea urchin head!
What, you think you're cool, wearing cheap sunglasses?!
And you, there!
You, blond spiky-hair boy, that's totally passé.
And what, Get Backers Recovery Service?!
Are you stupid?
I can't believe it, at your age.
Get a real job, already!
Now now, Ban...
She's cute, so make allowances, okay?
Oh, sorry, sorry. She's cute, so make allowances, okay?
Oh, sorry, sorry.
Huh?
No, these guys are no big deal.
Why don't you just...
You shouldn't underestimate us too much, girlie.
If you do...
Hello, is this the police?
There's someone committing property damage right in front of me.
Stop it!
What do you want, property damage man?!
I don't want to do this anymore.
What's that supposed to mean? I don't want to do this anymore.
What's that supposed to mean? Why do I have to deal with someone like this?
Now, now, she's cute, so just try a little more.
You keep going, "cute, cute!"
But she is cute.
Don't give me your "buts!"
It's all right, isn't it?
No, it's not!
Geez, don't you get it?
When you're asking somebody for something, there's a certain procedure, isn't there?
Procedure?
Right, procedure.
It's all right.
I'm sure they'll figure something out for you.
Yes...
Excuse me, I've got something I have to do.
I've already given them my contact information.
Please give them my regards.
Informant fee?!
She's screwing with us.
Hey, you better not have really stolen it yourself.
I didn't, but I know where it is.
For crying out loud. If you're lying, you're gonna get it.
Oh! Juice, I want some juice!
And takoyaki! Takoyaki, too!
I gave you money! If you wanna eat, go ahead and eat!
Forget that, hurry up and take us to the briefcase.
I'm going home!
Riko?!
All right! All right, already!
This is the special menu, the pride of this establishment.
Thank you very much!
Ban, are we okay for money?
We got an advance. We should be able to handle this much.
Two glasses of water, please.
One,
ten,
one hundred,
one thousand,
ten thousand,
one hundred thousand,
one million...
Twelve million?!
I want that!
No! That above all things you can't have!
She's cute, but I'm tired.
Come on! You've gotten enough, haven't you little girl?
Hurry up and take us to the briefcase...
Next, the zoo! I want to go to the zoo! Hurry up and take us to the briefcase...
Next, the zoo! I want to go to the zoo!
What?
She's really energetic.
We don't have that kind of money anymore.
High School Girl
Hey! When did I say I wanted to see an animal parlor trick show?!
What I want to see are things like giraffes, penguins, flamingoes!
What are you talking about?
For animals you can gather in this neighborhood,
these guys are about all there is.
Well, as far as other ones...
What are you doing, that's disgusting!
Pervert! Filth! Icky!
What's with you, you snake man?!
I'm not the snake man!
Then what are you, you perverted snake boy?!
That's the snake boy over there! Don't compare me to him!
Now, now...
Why do I have to do this, anyway?
She's cute, okay? So let's just hold back. Why do I have to do this, anyway?
She's cute, okay? So let's just hold back.
Okay, now you ought to be satisfied, right?
Now hurry up and take us...
As if I'd be satisfied!
Next, a gigolo club!
I really wanted to try going once myself.
Introduce me to the best, Number One gigolo.
Okay, what I like is, someone with long hair, and slit eyes, and...
Ginji...
Yeah.
I refuse.
Please accept! Please, Kazu?!
Hey, thread spinner, it's not that big a deal. Come on, do it for her.
I don't want to!
Oh, that's mean!
After I decorated the cafe, and brought makeup too!
Please, Kazu!
We're sorry to have kept you waiting.
This is Thread Spinner Kazuki, the Number One, the pride of the house.
Pleased to meet you.
What's with this? It's just some gay guy!
Now, now, hold back, hold back...
Next! An amusement park! A roller coaster!
Himiko, I'll leave her to you a little longer.
Roger.
No!
No! Let me off!
I feel a little sorry for Riko. No! Let me off!
I feel a little sorry for Riko.
Is he serious?
He probably is.
Boy, you helped us out, Himiko. Thanks.
How was it, girlie? Fun, huh?
What the hell are your nerves made of?!
What's your problem?
You were enjoying it, screaming, "Ah! Ah!" all the time.
Do you not get that I was scared?!
What's with you, you hooligan?!
You're the worst! You boar! Man-woman!
What did you say?!
You've got to be unpopular with guys!
You're the type men run away from!
You won't be able to get married your whole life, you know!
Pretty brave, aren't you?
Himiko, wait, no!
Miss Himiko, I understand how you feel.
Yeah.
Please, forgive her. Like this, okay?
That's enough! I can't hang out with you people anymore!
I'll show you where the briefcase is!
I'm busy too, you know, so hurry up and get it over with!
I'm going to charge you a big fee for this, just so you know.
Sorry, but I'm going home.
Me too.
Now, now, everyone calm down.
We're dealing with a child, okay?
Ban, you too, just this once.
Hey, what are you doing?!
Are you guys all idlers?
Idlers?!
It is really there, right?
Yeah, it's in a trash bin behind a grocer's.
That was last night, so it should probably still be there.
Should probably?! Why, you...
Hello!
Oh, it's been a long time since I talked to you!
Now, now, once we go there it'll be over, so... Oh, it's been a long time since I talked to you!
Wait a minute.
Last night...
Which means, wouldn't it have been taken away already with the garbage?
This'll be over soon, so...
Obviously. What time do you think it is?
Today is the non-burnable trash day after all.
Sheesh, you guys don't have any common knowledge.
Are you the one who takes out Miss Madoka's trash?
That's not how it is!
Wow, that's so great!
What do we do, Ban? Wow, that's so great!
Right, got it. See you later!
We've got no choice. Right, got it. See you later!
Okay then, let me know when you're done.
Now, let's give it a quick go!
Why do I have to do stuff like this too?
I told you, I'll pay you your fee!
If we work fast and get it over with fast...
Glass is a dangerous thing!
Oh, I've already looked over there, so please don't mix it up. You don't just throw it away!
Oh, I've already looked over there, so please don't mix it up.
Sheesh, why are we here?
I'm sorry, Kazu, Shido.
Somehow you just can't refuse anything he asks.
Hey, can't I go home already?
No! Stay here until you ID the bag!
Aw, but I made plans to go out and have fun!
If you want to go out and have fun, then you help too!
No way, that's icky!
If you guys want to forage through trash, do it by yourselves!
Why, you...
Oh, hey.
Shido!
What if you called the animals and had them search in one big blitz?
Oh, that's right, there is that method!
No way!
If you do that, I'll make a break for it and go home, you hear?
And you, you monster-using snake man, don't come near me either!
Patience, patience...
I'm sorry, Shido.
Hey! Here it is!
Really?!
Hey, little girl!
Is this the briefcase?
Hey, stop, don't come near me.
You'll make me smell too.
Can you tell from over there?
I don't know, aren't all the bags old men carry basically the same?
Then look at it up close!
Ban... You wench, you'd seriously better...
That's right! The documents inside. You wench, you'd seriously better...
What?
There's nothing in it.
What? Then this isn't it?
Hold on, you've got to be kidding.
Do we have to keep foraging through trash?
I don't know what you're going on about.
There wasn't anything in the old man's briefcase either.
What did you just say?
I said the old man's briefcase was empty too.
What do you mean?
The girls I was with were pissed off at that old man,
so they took that briefcase with them when we left.
But then they went and got scared on the way home.
So, they looked inside trying to find out his address, but there wasn't anything.
What should we do?
I told you not to do it.
It's not my problem, so you guys do whatever you want.
Hey, Riko!
Riko, wait!
When they're in a group they get caught up in the moment so easily,
even though they always regret it later.
They're such brats, huh?
Well, but they're not bad people.
So, where are the important documents?
Look!
This is...
That's far enough!
Mr. Sasakida!
Thanks a lot for finding the briefcase for us.
Who the hell are you guys?
You could say we're this man's friends.
He's in this condition, see, so we came to get that in his place.
That disk, I mean.
Now, hand it over fast.
If you don't...
If we don't, what are you going to do?
What? You're kidding! For real?
Okay, I'm going now, so take care of the rest yoursel...
Riko!
If you don't, this girl's life is over.
Hey! What's with you?! Let me go! I don't have anything to do with it!
Shut up! Can't you see this?!
Oh please, that's got to be a fake.
I can't believe it, at your age.
Hey, are all the people you guys hang out with like this?
Riko! It's real. It's real, so just be good!
What now?
We can't just leave her alone, can we?
Damn, she's a pain.
Hi, sorry, it looks like it's going to take a little longer.
Find out for yourself if this is a toy!
That was close.
I told you, don't get me mixed up in your problems, okay!
Ugh, you smell like trash! Get a little further away from me.
I'll never save you again.
We're in really bad moods today!
You're going to let us blow off some steam!
Shido? Kazu?
Somehow everyone's being really amazing and there's no room for me.
Well, well, it's everyone together.
Jackal?
Mr. Akabane?
Why, you. What the hell are you doing here?!
My job.
I'm meeting a client here, you see.
He asked me to please transport a briefcase, but...
It seems that's been cancelled.
A mistake got pinned on me by one of my superiors
and thanks to that I've been sidelined and given make-work.
And then, I heard from a certain enterprise that if I sneaked some top-secret data to them,
they'd hire me and give me the same privileges as a department chief.
But the floppy with the data on it was stolen with your briefcase.
The truth is, I was supposed to go to where the deal would take place after that.
But you couldn't go.
They hired this crew and went after you and the briefcase.
If I do things by the book, it's useless, and if I commit crimes, it's useless.
I'm a truly useless man.
What on earth should I do now?
Take that and go back to your company.
What if you tried consulting with your bosses about that superior?
It'll be okay. There'll definitely be someone who understands.
Crime doesn't suit you.
Thank you very much!
And you, little girl!
If you've learned from this, then quit going out at night and...
So your name is Mr. Akabane?
Say, would you trade e-mail addresses with me?
Sure.
Sheesh, kids these days don't listen to what other people say.
Don't laugh! Just whose fault do you think it is that she...
Good question. Whose fault was it again? Don't laugh! Just whose fault do you think it is that she...
Good question. Whose fault was it again?
We had to forage through trash even.
I still don't feel like I've blown off all my steam.
Hold it, Ban!
Are you running away?!
We're not done talking to you yet!
Thanks for the business!

Hey, Ban, do you suppose there are some things it's better not to remember?
Sure, there might be, but do you think so?
No matter how painful it might be,
I do want to always have my important memories after all.
It's probably because you're strong that you can think that.
There are also some things that are happiest forgotten.
