SIGN    Dear Yokomizo-dono
[00:00] Mushitaro
    Dear Yokomizo-dono,
[00:04] Mushitaro
    How is it in the afterlife?
[00:06] Mushitaro
    Knowing you, I suspect
    you're looking for ways
[00:11] Mushitaro
    to manipulate divine powers
    into allowing you an escape.
[00:14] Mushitaro
    I bet you're jealous of my
    lavish lifestyle right now.
[00:19] Mushitaro
    No, I'm not lying.
[00:21] Mushitaro
    The meals are extravagant and exquisite.
[00:23] Guard
    Meal time!
[00:28] Mushitaro
    Thank you.
[00:30] Mushitaro
    And even the Celtic god Ruad Rofhessa
[00:32] Mushitaro
    would envy the freedom afforded
    to me during my reading times.
[00:35] Mushitaro
    You, guard.
[00:38] Mushitaro
    I wish to read books on occultism.
[00:40] Mushitaro
    Take me to the library.
[00:41] Guard
    You aren't allowed to leave.
[00:43] Mushitaro
    At least lend me a book, then.
[00:47] Mushitaro
    If the rinse cycle does not occur
    during the washing process, see page 8.
[00:52] Mushitaro
    I get to read books that
    I rarely do otherwise.
[00:57] Mushitaro
    I never even think about the fact
[01:00] Mushitaro
    that you no longer exist in this world.
[01:20] Mushitaro
    Oh, Yokomizo...
[01:22] Mushitaro
    Unlike the fool that you are,
[01:22] Kyouka
    Infiltration successful.
[01:24] Atsushi
    Ow, ow, ow...
[01:24] Mushitaro
    I am able to maintain my composure
    and grace during this crisis.
[01:25] Kyouka
    Are you all right?
[01:26] Atsushi
    I think so.
[01:28] Mushitaro
    Sech stempel schrecken
    geht durch mein gebein!
[01:36] Atsushi
    Um... We're the Armed Detective Agency.
[01:39] Atsushi
    We're here to help you.
[03:16] Atsushi
    The Detective Agency's been framed
    by the Decay of Angels.
[03:20] Atsushi
    You were captured by the enemy
    trying to warn us about their trap.
[03:25] Atsushi
    We used the Eyes of God to find you
    here so that we can get you out.
[03:31] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan, have you dealt
    with the guards outside?
[03:34] Kyouka
    Demon Snow knocked them out.
[03:38] Atsushi
    Mushitaro-san, let's escape together.
[03:41] Mushitaro
    I refuse.
[03:43] Mushitaro
    You just want me for my knowledge
     of the Decay of Angels, don't you?
[03:47] Mushitaro
    But I have no need for you lot.
[03:50] Atsushi
    But...
[03:51] Atsushi
    Don't you want to leave?
[03:53] Mushitaro
    I'm used to being locked up.
[03:56] Mushitaro
    Besides, there's nothing for me
     in the outside world anymore.
[04:01] Mushitaro
    Even if I leave, he's not...
[04:06] Kyouka
    The manuscript.
[04:08] Kyouka
    Rampo-san told me that you wouldn't
    be able to resist that word.
[04:13] (Flashback) Rampo
    It's enough to publicize the
    truth behind this manuscript.
[04:18] Mushitaro
    Is that a threat?
[04:20] Mushitaro
    You've become a true criminal
    organization now, haven't you?
[04:25] Kyouka
    That may be.
[04:27] Kyouka
    I'll become anything, if it's to
    save the Armed Detective Agency.
[04:34] Mushitaro
    Then you're aware that what you're doing
    right now is tantamount to bank robbery.
[04:41] Mushitaro
    We're inside a government bank.
[04:43] Mushitaro
    Breaking in, by itself, is a serious crime.
[04:48] Mushitaro
    Ah, whatever.
[04:50] Mushitaro
    I'll do as you say.
[04:53] Atsushi
    You will?!
[04:54] Atsushi
    Thank you!
[04:58] Kyouka
    The escape route is this way.
[05:01] Mushitaro
    The manuscript?!
[05:06] Mushitaro
    That was the last remnant of Yokomizo's life,
    that he entrusted me with.
[05:11] Mushitaro
    How dare they use it against me!
[05:14] Mushitaro
    Wretched bastards!
[05:17] Mushitaro
    I ought to let the guards take them.
[05:21] Mushitaro
    To that end, I need to make
    us as noticeable as we can.
[05:25] Mushitaro
    My tummy hurts!
[05:27] Atsushi
    Are you all right?
[05:28] Mushitaro
    Not at all!
[05:29] Mushitaro
    I might be a goner!
[05:33] Kyouka
    Fine.
[05:36] Kyouka
    I know of an acupuncture point
    that works on stomach pain.
[05:38] Kyouka
    All it takes is a good jab three
    centimeters above the hipbone.
[05:42] Mushitaro
    Oh, I'm all good!
[05:44] Mushitaro
    It works so well, you feel better
    before you even get jabbed!
[05:47] Kyouka
    Thanks.
[05:48] Mushitaro
    You brat!
[05:50] Mushitaro
    I'm not done yet.
[05:51] Mushitaro
    This is bad!
[05:53] Mushitaro
    This hallway is aligned with
    the Kabbalistic Taurus!
[05:56] Mushitaro
    Do not tread this evil path,
     you foolish normies!
[05:59] Kyouka
    I know an acupuncture point
    that works on Kabbala.
[06:01] Mushitaro
    The alignment's all better!
[06:03] Mushitaro
    Such a powerful acupuncture point.
[06:05] Kyouka
    Thanks.
[06:07] Guard A
    Yes, this is Group C.
[06:10] Guard A
    Yes.
[06:10] Guard A
    Yes.
[06:11] Guard A
    Understood.
[06:12] Guard A
    On our way.
[06:15] Kyouka
    What's wrong?
[06:16] Atsushi
    The guards are leaving.
[06:21] Atsushi
    What the...
[06:22] Manager
    P-Please, no, detective.
[06:24] Ango
    Manager, sir...
[06:27] Ango
    There is a wanted man
    hiding in this building.
[06:30] Ango
    Please cease operations and
    grant us security authority.
[06:36] Military Police A
    The bank has been surrounded.
[06:38] Ango
    Good.
[06:39] Ango
    We've assessed the
     targets' special abilities.
[06:42] Ango
    We're hunting them down with all our might.
[06:45] Mushitaro
    What's the problem?
[06:46] Atsushi
    The Special Operations
    Division has us surrounded.
[06:49] Mushitaro
    It's him!
[06:52] Mushitaro
    Shit...
[06:53] Mushitaro
    Ohh, shit.
[06:54] Mushitaro
    Why is he here?
[06:56] Atsushi
    What is it?
[06:58] Mushitaro
    Sakaguchi Ango.
[07:00] Mushitaro
    If that man catches us, we're all done for.
[07:06] Mushitaro
    Are you aware of an organization
    called The Seventh Agency?
[07:09] Mushitaro
    They specialize in cleaning up
    crime and engaging in cover-ups.
[07:13] Kyouka
    I've heard of it.
[07:15] Kyouka
    That Fyodor rescued you from confinement
[07:18] Kyouka
    and demanded cooperation during
    the Cannibalism in return.
[07:22] Mushitaro
    Sakaguchi Ango is the leader
    of that crime organization.
[07:27] Atsushi
    That's impossible!
[07:28] Atsushi
    Ango-san works for the government!
[07:30] Mushitaro
    Do you still not understand?
[07:32] Mushitaro
    The government created
    a crime organization!
[07:36] Mushitaro
    The Seventh Agency is the
    government's shadow.
[07:39] Mushitaro
    Cover-ups of political crimes, using illegal
    tactics, removing damaging rumors...
[07:43] Mushitaro
    I was the one who was given documents
[07:45] Mushitaro
    on all these things,
    so I could delete the evidence.
[07:48] Mushitaro
    There's no doubt that if we're captured,
    I'll be held until the day I die,
[07:54] Mushitaro
    and you two will be erased.
[07:56] Kyouka
    If that's true, this trap will be brutal.
[07:59] Kyouka
    The team within the
    Special Operations Division
[08:01] Kyouka
    focuses on dealing with Gifted.
    Even the Port Mafia fears them.
[08:04] Kyouka
    If we're found, they'll bombard us with poison gas
     and explosives and that will be checkmate.
[08:08] Mushitaro
    So we just need to avoid being found.
[08:13] Mushitaro
    Who do you think I am?
[08:20] Mushitaro
    Walk with pride!
[08:26] Guard C
    What's wrong?
[08:27] Guard B
    No, nothing.
[08:29] Mushitaro
    Impressed?
[08:30] Mushitaro
    If we walk around with stolen goods and use
    my special ability to erase evidence of crime,
[08:35] Mushitaro
    we vanish from any kind
    of surveillance video.
[08:39] Atsushi
    Wow...
[08:40] Atsushi
    No wonder Rampo-san struggled
    against this ability.
[08:45] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan, hide!
[08:57] Ango
    The target is in this area.
[09:00] Ango
    There are Gifted who can
    dismantle walls and ceilings.
[09:04] Ango
    Secure the perimeter with caution.
[09:08] Atsushi
    It's Ango-san.
[09:09] Mushitaro
    But why?
[09:10] Mushitaro
    My ability is perfect!
[09:13] Kyouka
    This is bad.
[09:14] Kyouka
    The hallway ahead is a
    dead end filled with vaults.
[09:18] Kyouka
    There's nowhere to run.
[09:20] Atsushi
    Could we hide in a vault?
[09:22] Kyouka
    That's too dangerous.
[09:23] Kyouka
    We'd be trapped like rats.
[09:28] Atsushi
    They're coming!
[09:30] Mushitaro
    There's no time.
[09:31] Mushitaro
    If they find us, we're doomed.
[09:33] Mushitaro
    What do we do?!
[09:36] Yokomizo
    It's like you're trapped in a room.
[09:39] Yokomizo
    A trap without an exit.
[09:41] Yokomizo
    Just like a locked room.
[09:44] Yokomizo
    It'd make for an entertaining mystery
    if the criminal vanished from here.
[09:49] Yokomizo
    Don't you agree, Mushi-kun?
[10:00] Mushitaro
    You two.
SIGN    Episode 48
SIGN    Jailbreak
[10:03] Mushitaro
    Come with me.
[10:11] Military Police B
    Target acquired!
[10:13] Military Police B
    He's escaping into a vault!
[10:16] Ango
    Neutralize the enemy!
[10:18] Ango
    Gifted Combat Squad, advance!
[10:22] Military Police A
    Explosives planted.
[10:24] Military Police B
    Breach charges set.
[10:26] Military Police A
    Detonate!
[10:32] Military Police A
    Breach!
[10:36] Military Police A
    Command, there's no one here.
[10:39] Military Police A
    The target has vanished.
[10:42] Ango
    What?!
[10:50] Ango
    There's no sign that they've dug
    through the walls or ground.
[10:53] Ango
    There isn't even a sign that
    they've used special abilities.
[10:58] Ango
    They've vanished without a trace.
[11:03] Mushitaro
    See that, Special Operations?!
[11:06] Atsushi
    Are you okay?
[11:08] Mushitaro
    That was nothing.
[11:09] Mushitaro
    Just the classic vanishing act.
[11:12] Mushitaro
    What they saw was the moment
    Demon Snow closed the vault door.
[11:16] Mushitaro
    We were, in fact, hiding in an
    open vault closer to the exit.
[11:20] Atsushi
    And, in the moment of the attack,
[11:22] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan released
    Demon Snow and we escaped.
[11:25] Mushitaro
    It's psychological trickery,
     taking advantage of the expectation
[11:28] Mushitaro
    that we wouldn't be hiding in an open vault.
[11:32] Mushitaro
    The smarter you are,
    the more likely you are to fall for it.
[11:34] Atsushi
    I'm amazed that you came up with
    that idea under so much pressure.
[11:37] Mushitaro
    Oh, no, I didn't come up with it.
[11:43] Mushitaro
    Someone taught me it a long time ago.
[11:46] Atsushi
    Who did?
[11:49] (Flashback) Mushitaro
    Hide in the room next door?!
[11:51] (Flashback) Mushitaro
    Would that even count as a trick?
[11:57] (Flashback) Yokomizo
    You couldn't figure it out, though,
     could you, Mushi-kun?
[12:02] [SONG] Text
    We debated thousands
     upon thousands of times
[12:03] Mushitaro
    We debated thousands upon
    thousands of times.
[12:04] [SONG] Text
    It seeped into the very fiber of my being.
[12:05] Mushitaro
    It seeped into the very fiber of my being.
[12:09] Mushitaro
    Yokomizo...
[12:10] Mushitaro
    Were you always there?
[12:14] Mushitaro
    Can I always meet you in a closed room?
[12:19] Yokomizo
    Life seems exciting and fun
    around you these days.
[12:23] Yokomizo
    Better for your well-being than writing
    those dull letters, I'd say.
[12:29] Mushitaro
    Shut up, you sell-out.
[12:33] Atsushi
    Mushitaro-san?
[12:35] Mushitaro
    Now, we just need to steal a car and run.
[12:38] Mushitaro
    First, we erase the evidence of
    having stolen a car using my ability.
[12:43] Mushitaro
    That way, the city security camera footage
    and stolen car police documents vanish.
[12:50] Atsushi
    You sure are something else.
[12:52] Kyouka
    This sewer line will take us to a
    parking lot away from the guards.
[12:57] Atsushi
    I'll handle it.
[13:03] Atsushi
    I'll go in first and check—
[13:09] Mushitaro
    Hey!
[13:14] Mushitaro
    A dummy grenade!
[13:18] Ango
    Unacceptable.
[13:20] Ango
    I can't have you thinking you
    can deceive me that easily.
[13:24] Mushitaro
    Impossible!
[13:24] Mushitaro
    How did you find us here?
[13:25] Atsushi
    Ango-san, please, listen.
[13:28] Atsushi
    The Detective Agency is innocent.
[13:31] Atsushi
    The real enemy is elsewhere.
[13:33] Atsushi
    I trust you to understand.
[13:36] Atsushi
    Believe me!
[13:38] Ango
    You're right.
[13:40] Ango
    I understand.
[13:43] Ango
    My special ability allows me to extract
    memories residing in objects.
[13:51] Ango
    I used this to determine your escape route.
[13:55] Ango
    I used this ability to learn
    everything about the crime scene.
[13:58] Ango
    Therefore, I can be certain the
    Detective Agency is guilty.
[14:02] Ango
    You also stabbed Chief Taneda!
[14:05] Kyouka
    Rampo-san said the government has
    a Gifted who can read memories.
[14:13] Kyouka
    He also said that if we're captured,
    we're bound to be executed.
[14:18] Ango
    You would honestly beg a secret government
    organization to just believe you?
[14:22] Ango
    The Agency's jokes have never
    been funny, to the very end.
[14:25] Atsushi
    I underestimated the
    Special Operations Division.
[14:49] Military Police A
    Commander, where are the targets?
[14:51] Ango
    They got away.
[14:53] Ango
    They escaped through the manhole.
[14:54] Ango
    They're using the tiger's
    special ability to head west.
[14:59] Ango
    Secure the area!
[15:01] Military Police A
    Yes, sir.
[15:04] Ango
    This will convince Fyodor
    that we are enemies.
[15:09] Atsushi
    You believe me that the
    Detective Agency is innocent?
[15:13] Ango
    You saw a message from Dazai-kun
    in Francis' office, correct?
[15:20] Ango
    I was the one who sent that message.
[15:23] Atsushi
    Huh?
[15:24] Atsushi
    So, then...
[15:26] Ango
    Dazai-kun and I have been
    cooperating since the beginning.
[15:30] Ango
    I am Dazai-kun's messenger
    while he is confined.
[15:33] Atsushi
    But how is Dazai-san communicating
    with the outside?
[15:37] Ango
    Prisoners at the Mersault detention center
[15:40] Ango
    are implanted with a vital sign monitor
     in order to prevent escape.
[15:43] Ango
    Dazai-kun encodes his
    messages in his heart rate,
[15:48] Ango
    which I then use my government
    access to retrieve and decode.
[15:53] Atsushi
    He's controlling his own heart rate?
[15:56] Ango
    It's a very Dazai-kun party trick.
[15:58] Ango
    No one would suspect a thing.
[16:00] Mushitaro
    I don't believe you.
[16:02] Mushitaro
    You're an enemy.
[16:04] Mushitaro
    What was the point of that charade, anyway?
[16:07] Ango
    There's no telling where Fyodor has eyes.
[16:10] Ango
    With my ability to read memories,
    I can pursue any escapee.
[16:17] Ango
    If I were to just lose you,
    the enemy would be suspicious.
[16:20] Mushitaro
    The enemy?
[16:22] Mushitaro
    The cunning Seventh Agency
    is afraid of the enemy?
[16:26] Ango
    That's the thing, Mushitaro-san.
[16:29] Ango
    So it's true that you've been told
     I'm with the Seventh Agency.
[16:34] Mushitaro
    What if I have?
[16:35] Ango
    It's simple.
[16:37] Ango
    I'm not with the Seventh Agency.
[16:41] Mushitaro
    What?
[16:42] Ango
    Fyodor lied.
[16:44] Ango
    To keep you away from me.
[16:48] Ango
    That's how afraid he is of
    us talking to each other.
[16:54] Ango
    Let's continue this
     conversation where it's safe.
[16:58] Lucy
    Are you serious?!
[17:00] Lucy
    What's wrong with you?!
[17:01] Lucy
    What do you mean you're wanted?!
[17:04] Atsushi
    Ow, ow...
[17:05] Mushitaro
    Is this place really safe?
[17:07] Ango
    Only those she invites can enter.
[17:10] Ango
    It's the safest place on earth.
[17:12] Atsushi
    Wait, Lucy-chan. Why are
    you even with Ango-san?
[17:17] Lucy
    Well, that's...
[17:18] Lucy
    Not for any particular reason.
[17:19] Ango
    I'm protecting her.
[17:21] Lucy
    Hey!
[17:21] Ango
    She barged into the
    investigation headquarters.
[17:25] Ango
    "Atsushi-kun's not evil. There's no way
    he's a murderer," she said, maniacally.
[17:31] Lucy
    Stop it!
[17:32] Lucy
    Don't tell him!
[17:34] Atsushi
    Wow, that's kind of you.
[17:36] Atsushi
    Thank you, Lucy-chan.
[17:39] Mushitaro
    Never mind that. Tell me, Sakaguchi Ango...
[17:42] Mushitaro
    I was once captured by an organization that
    forced me to help cover up their crimes.
[17:48] Mushitaro
    That evil organization was
    called the Seventh Agency.
[17:53] Mushitaro
    Are you truly not with that organization?
[17:57] Ango
    I am not.
[17:59] Mushitaro
    Have you ever made use of their services?
[18:07] Ango
    I have.
[18:13] Mushitaro
    Then I have no reason to cooperate with you.
[18:17] Ango
    But only once.
[18:23] Ango
    Four years ago.
[18:24] Ango
    To make sure Dazai-kun could
    live outside the Port Mafia.
[18:27] Ango
    I erased his past crimes.
[18:33] Mushitaro
    Why did you dirty your hands just that once?
[18:47] Ango
    A desperate attempt to make
     amends for a friend long gone.
[18:56] Mushitaro
    For a friend long gone, huh?
[19:01] Ango
    Mushitaro-san, you're correct.
[19:04] Ango
    The Seventh Agency is evil.
[19:06] Ango
    Their scope, their members,
    their hierarchy...
[19:09] Ango
    Everything is unknown.
[19:11] Ango
    Even I had to go through
    four levels of middlemen
[19:13] Ango
    to work with that government
    crime organization.
[19:17] Mushitaro
    I see.
[19:18] Mushitaro
    So that's why you work independently.
[19:22] Ango
    Yes.
[19:24] Atsushi
    What's going on?
[19:26] Mushitaro
    This man suspects there's a
    spy inside the government.
[19:32] Ango
    I can't trust anyone.
[19:34] Ango
    I'm the only one who can
    avenge Chief Taneda.
[19:39] Ango
    To that end, I need to hear what you know.
[19:43] Ango
    The knowledge that Fyodor tried
    so hard to hide from me.
[19:46] Atsushi
    I ask on his behalf, as well.
[19:48] Atsushi
    I know you have no reason to tell us.
[19:52] Kyouka
    Please.
[19:56] Mushitaro
    Where do I start?
[19:59] Mushitaro
    But, just so you know, in five
    minutes you'll be regretting it.
[20:03] Mushitaro
    Anything you ask, all of my answers
    will absolutely ruin your day.
[20:08] Ango
    Most important question first, then.
[20:11] Ango
    What is the Decay of Angels?
[20:15] Mushitaro
    The terrorist organization, Decay of Angels,
     is comprised of five members.
[20:20] Mushitaro
    The demonic Fyodor and jester Nikolai,
[20:23] Mushitaro
    as well as two more extremely
    talented Gifted.
[20:25] Mushitaro
    And one founder who manages them.
[20:30] Atsushi
    Someone above Fyodor?
[20:32] Mushitaro
    I don't know what their ultimate goal is.
[20:35] Mushitaro
    But I do know what their current plan is,
     just one step ahead of it.
[20:40] Mushitaro
    The erasure of the state.
[20:41] Ango
    Erasure?
[20:43] Ango
    Not an overturning?
[20:46] Atsushi
    That's absurd!
[20:47] Atsushi
    They could never pull it off!
[20:49] Mushitaro
    They have the page.
[20:52] Atsushi
    But there's only one page.
[20:54] Atsushi
    They used it when they framed the Agency.
[20:57] Mushitaro
    They can use it just once more.
[21:01] Ango
    Right.
[21:02] Ango
    There's still the other side.
[21:03] Mushitaro
    That's right.
[21:05] Mushitaro
    The page is activated
    the moment it's written upon,
[21:10] Mushitaro
    and the page is blank on both sides.
[21:15] Mushitaro
    In other words, they're keeping
    the other side ready,
[21:18] Mushitaro
    so they have the power
    to recreate that tragedy.
[21:23] Atsushi
    Why don't they use it right away, then?
[21:26] Ango
    For the page to be activated, it needs to
    have a narrative-like causal consistency.
[21:34] Ango
    Correct?
[21:35] Mushitaro
    That's right.
[21:36] Mushitaro
    And because of that rule, a grand conspiracy
    necessarily requires a lot of text.
[21:42] Mushitaro
    So they'll only write the
    important details onto the page,
[21:46] Mushitaro
    and will deal with the
    trivial details themselves.
[21:50] Mushitaro
    That's the current phase of their plan.
[21:51] Mushitaro
    Next, they'll engage in global terrorism.
[21:54] Mushitaro
    Then, as the final phase of their plan,
     they'll use the last page.
[21:59] Atsushi
    And the state will be erased. Is that it?
[22:04] Mushitaro
    The other side of the page will be written
    on the night of the next full moon.
[22:15] Ango
    Ten days from now.
[22:18] Ango
    Shit.
[22:20] Ango
    You're right. I feel like garbage,
    having heard that.
[22:29] Ango
    I will escort you and relay
    this information to Dazai-kun.
[22:42] Lucy
    Hey, will you be all right?
[22:46] Atsushi
    Yes!
[22:47] Atsushi
    We did it, Kyouka-chan!
[22:49] Lucy
    Huh?
[22:50] Lucy
    Wh-What's gotten into you?
[22:53] Atsushi
    Ten days until the other side
    of the page is written.
[22:56] Atsushi
    In other words, they can't
    write anything until then.
[22:59] Kyouka
    Right.
[23:00] Kyouka
    It'll take at least ten days
    to prepare the final step.
[23:06] Atsushi
    The Detective Agency's been made criminals
    because of the page's reality-altering effect.
[23:10] Atsushi
    We can't undo that...
[23:13] Atsushi
    Or so I thought.
[23:15] Atsushi
    But that's not true.
[23:17] Atsushi
    We'll take the page back and write
    that the Agency is innocent.
[23:21] Atsushi
    That'll fix everything.
[23:22] Kyouka
    We track down the Decay of Angels
    within ten days and defeat them,
[23:26] Kyouka
    and take the page back.
[23:28] Atsushi
    That's it.
[23:29] Atsushi
    That's all we need to do.
[23:31] Atsushi
    Let's do it, Kyouka-chan!
[23:35] Atsushi
    There's still hope.
