SIGN    What is the Ideal?
[00:01] Kuni
    What is the Ideal?
[00:04] Kuni
    There are any number of
    answers to that question.
[00:07] Kuni
    It is words,
[00:09] Kuni
    it is thought.
[00:10] Kuni
    It is the font of all meaning.
[00:13] Kuni
    But if you were to ask me,
[00:15] Kuni
    the answer to the question is clear.
SIGN    Ideal
[00:17] Kuni
    It is the word written
    on my notebook's cover.
[00:24] Kuni
    The Ideal...
[00:26] Kuni
    Everything about me is
    written in this notebook.
SIGN    Ideal
[00:30] Kuni
    My schedule, my plans, my goals...
[00:34] Kuni
    This notebook contains the
    entirety of my future.
[00:37] Kuni
    
[02:16] Kuni
    I arrived a whole ten seconds early.
[02:19] Kuni
    My name is Kunikida Doppo.
[02:21] Kuni
    I am an idealist walking the earth,
[02:23] Kuni
    and a pragmatist in pursuit of ideals.
[02:26] Kuni
    It's time.
[02:27] Kuni
    Good morning.
[02:28] Naka
    Kunikida-san, please help us!
[02:32] Kuni
    What's going on so early in the day?
[02:34] Naka
    J-J-Just look at Dazai-san!
[02:37] Dazai
    Oh!
[02:38] Dazai
    Kunikida-kun, it's an emergency!
[02:40] Dazai
    Just look!
[02:41] Kuni
    Look at what?
[02:42] Dazai
    At that!
[02:44] Kuni
    I only see your idiot face!
[02:46] D
    I've finally arrived...
[02:48] D
    in the afterlife!
[02:50] D
    At Yomotsuhirasaka!
[02:51] Kuni
    What's going on?
[02:51] Dazai
    It's exactly as I'd imagined!
[02:52] Dazai
    Blue smoke trailing along the ground,
[02:53] Naka
    Kunikida-san.
[02:53] Dazai
    moonlight dashing against the windows,
[02:54] Naka
    I think this may explain it.
[02:55] Dazai
    and pink elephants dancing
    in the western sky!
SIGN    Complete Guide to Suicide
[02:57] Dazai
    I knew the Complete Guide to Suicide
     was a masterpiece!
[03:01] Dazai
    Who knew I just needed to eat mushrooms
    growing in the nearby hills
[03:03] Dazai
    to have such an entertaining way out?!
[03:07] Kuni
    So he ate poisonous mushrooms?
[03:09] Naka
    Well, he thought he was eating
    lethal mushrooms, but...
[03:12] Dazai
    Ah, I've finally caught you,
[03:14] Dazai
    rainbow pillbug!
[03:16] Dazai
    All right, let's eat you back home!
[03:16] Naka
    Kunikida-san!
[03:18] Kuni
    I'm doing my customary paperwork
    after arriving at work.
[03:20] Kuni
    Wait till I'm done.
[03:21] Naka
    What?!
[03:29] Dazai
    Kunikida-kun.
[03:32] Dazai
    You should come to the afterlife, too.
[03:34] Dazai
    It's amazing.
[03:36] Dazai
    There are rainbow pillbugs, too.
[03:38] Dazai
    You can drink all you want!
[03:41] Dazai
    You can eat all you want!
[03:44] Dazai
    You can look at all the sleeping
    beauties you could possibly—
[03:48] Kuni
    Shut up!
[03:50] Naka
    Why are two such incompatible
    people a team?
[03:56] Haruno
    Kunikida-san, the president
    has your case for the day.
[04:01] Kuni
    Dazai.
[04:02] Kuni
    Quit dawdling.
[04:04] Kuni
    Walk faster.
[04:05] Dazai
    'Kay.
[04:06] Kuni
    We only have two minutes and fifteen
    seconds until the appointed time!
[04:10] Dazai
    That's a concern.
[04:12] Naka
    Is it okay for me to come along?
[04:14] Kuni
    This is part of your rookie training.
[04:16] Kuni
    This case involves solving a series
    of disappearances in Yokohama.
[04:21] Naka
    If I recall, it's the one
    where visitors to Yokohama
[04:24] Naka
    keep disappearing one after another, right?
[04:27] Kuni
    We have an anonymous tip.
[04:30] Kuni
    The victims have been abducted and
    imprisoned in a certain location.
[04:34] Dazai
    An anonymous tip...
[04:36] Dazai
    How suspicious and wonderful.
[04:39] Kuni
    But we can't ignore it.
[04:41] Naka
    So we're going to check the place out?
[04:44] Kuni
    No.
[04:48] Kuni
    We're going to investigate the
    anonymous tip's source first.
[04:57] Kuni
    How goes it, informant?
[04:59] Roku
    Hey, four-eyes. Are you a slave
    to your notebook yet again?
[05:03] Kuni
    You think you can talk like
    that to a detective agency
[05:06] Kuni
    when you're a cyber criminal?
[05:08] Kuni
    If you're arrested,
[05:10] Kuni
    your deceased father will be most aggrieved.
[05:12] Roku
    Don't bring my father into this.
[05:15] Roku
    More importantly, you're late.
[05:17] Roku
    Isn't that unusual for you?
[05:18] Roku
    Why?
[05:19] Roku
    Were you on a date with a pretty lady?
[05:21] Kuni
    No!
[05:22] Kuni
    Dates should be with a chosen woman,
[05:25] Kuni
    followed by marriage six years later.
[05:26] Kuni
    That is what's written in this notebook.
[05:28] Naka
    Huh?!
[05:29] Naka
    You have someone you've decided to marry?
[05:32] Kuni
    I will in another four years.
[05:36] Roku
    Is he new?
[05:38] Naka
    I'm Nakajima Atsushi.
SIGN    Cyber Network Warrior

[05:39] Roku
    I'm called Taguchi Rokuzou.
[05:42] Roku
    I'm an informant.
[05:43] Roku
    For the right price, I can
    dig up dirt on anything.
[05:46] Kuni
    And?
[05:47] Kuni
    Did you figure out who's
    behind the anonymous tip?
[05:50] Roku
    The Azure Messenger...
[05:51] Kuni
    What?
[05:52] Roku
    There was data left on the server.
[05:55] Roku
    And pics of the abduction victims, I guess.
[05:58] Roku
    The mole's not a bad guy, though, is he?
[06:01] Roku
    He told you where they're holed up and all.
[06:04] Dazai
    I wonder...
[06:05] Dazai
    I hope we don't go there, only to
    find he's one of the kidnappers.
[06:11] Kuni
    The Azure Messenger...
[06:13] Kuni
    I want you to keep looking into it.
[06:15] Roku
    Sure, when I feel like it.
SIGN    Episode 6: The Azure Messenger
[06:18] Roku
    I'm busy looking after my tropical fish.
[06:23] Kuni
    Yeah.
[06:23] Kuni
    Thanks.
[06:25] Kuni
    I called a cab.
[06:27] Kuni
    We'll go to the abandoned hospital
    mentioned by the tipster now.
[06:30] Dazai
    Kunikida-kun, why are you
    looking after the Rokuzou boy?
[06:34] Kuni
    What do you mean?
[06:36] Dazai
    It's not like you to give a hacker jobs.
[06:40] Dazai
    You could've just talked
    to him over the phone,
[06:42] Dazai
    but you took the time to
    meet him face to face.
[06:44] Dazai
    His father's deceased, isn't he?
[06:47] Dazai
    Are you trying to be his dad?
[06:49] Kuni
    We came here so that Atsushi
    could meet our informant.
[06:53] Kuni
    That's all there is to it.
[06:55] Dazai
    Sure, let's leave it at that.
[07:03] Kuni
    This driver's another one of our informants.
[07:06] Kuni
    He was a stage actor in his former life.
[07:07] Driver
    I couldn't make any money,
[07:09] Driver
    so I switched careers.
[07:11] Kuni
    That was the right decision.
[07:13] Kuni
    He knows more about Yokohama
    than anyone I know.
[07:18] Kuni
    He also saw two of the eleven victims
    right before they were abducted.
[07:25] Driver
    I just happened to drive them
    from the port to a hotel.
[07:29] Naka
    Is this case really about
    abductions, though?
[07:32] Naka
    There've been no requests for ransom.
[07:34] Kuni
    Are you sure these two
    were the ones you saw?
[07:36] Driver
    Yes, I'm sure of it.
[07:39] Driver
    They're even wearing the same clothes, too.
[07:41] Dazai
    I see.
[07:42] Dazai
    I have a hunch!
[07:44] Dazai
    Look at these photos.
    They're both wearing glasses!
[07:47] Dazai
    That means this is a serial
    glasses abduction case!
[07:49] Dazai
    It's your time to shine, Kunikida-kun!
[07:52] Kuni
    Some of the victims don't wear glasses.
[07:55] Kuni
    You can't say it's a pattern.
[07:57] Dazai
    Oh.
[07:58] Dazai
    Too bad. And here I thought it'd
    finally be your time to shine.
[08:01] Kuni
    I can't let that remark pass.
[08:04] Kuni
    Are you trying to say my glasses are the
    only reason I'd ever be in the spotlight?!
[08:09] Kuni
    Wh-What?!
[08:11] Driver
    We're here.
[08:13] Driver
    It's the abandoned hospital, as you requested.
[08:15] Dazai
    What a nice atmosphere.
[08:17] Kuni
    
[08:18] Dazai
    I think it might be haunted.
[08:19] Kuni
    By what?
[08:23] Naka
    It is creepy, to be sure.
[08:25] Dazai
    It's kind of nice.
[08:27] Dazai
    It revs you up.
[08:29] Kuni
    You'd better not have eaten
    another weird mushroom.
[08:31] Dazai
    Oh, are you scared, Kunikida-kun?
[08:34] Naka
    Are you afraid of ghosts or something?
[08:36] Kuni
    I'm not afraid of ghosts!
[08:38] Dazai
    Then keep up.
[08:39] Kuni
    Fool!
[08:40] Kuni
    In this sort of movie, those who are
    careless and get ahead of themselves
[08:43] Kuni
    are the ones who die first.
[08:44] Naka
    Look at these footprints.
[08:46] Naka
    They're still fresh.
[08:48] Nobuko
    Help!
[08:49] Naka
    That voice...
[08:50] Kuni
    Did it come from the basement?
[08:55] Kuni
    What's this?!
[09:12] Nobuko
    Thank you.
[09:14] Nobuko
    You saved me.
SIGN    University Lecturer
    Sasaki Nobuko
[09:16] Nobuko
    I am Sasaki Nobuko.
[09:19] Nobuko
    I'm a lecturer at a university in Tokyo.
[09:22] Naka
    So you're victim number twelve?
[09:25] Dazai
    Did you see who abducted you?
[09:29] Nobuko
    I'm sorry.
[09:30] Nobuko
    I blacked out at a station.
[09:32] Nobuko
    When I regained consciousness,
[09:34] Nobuko
    I was drowning in the tank, as you just saw.
[09:37] Kuni
    Dazai, what's your take on the situation?
[09:40] Dazai
    Sasaki-san's looking super sexy.
[09:42] Kuni
    Be serious!
[09:43] Nobuko
    Oh, right...
[09:44] Nobuko
    There should be others
    who were abducted here.
[09:49] Nobuko
    I know I heard voices just as
    I began drowning in the tank.
[09:53] Kuni
    What?
[09:56] Naka
    Kunikida-san!
[09:57] Naka
    I found them!
[09:58] Naka
    They're here!
[10:00] Mob
    Help us!
[10:03] Mob
    Please!
[10:05] Kuni
    You all right?
[10:06] Mob
    Get us out of here!
[10:08] Dazai
    Get back, Atsushi-kun!
[10:09] Dazai
    It's gas!
[10:10] Dazai
    You, too, Kunikida-kun.
[10:11] Kuni
    Hey, hang in there!
[10:13] Kuni
    Hey!
[10:14] Dazai
    Kunikida-kun!
[10:15] Kuni
    Let me go, Dazai!
[10:16] Kuni
    People shouldn't die like this!
[10:20] Kuni
    Let me go!
[10:21] Kuni
    Let me go!
[10:29] Naka
    "Victims of Yokohama's serial abduction case were found,
SIGN    Series of Disappearances in
    Yokohama Ends in Tragic Deaths
[10:32] Naka
    but perished when a civilian detective agency
    conducted an independent raid."
[10:35] Naka
    Perished...
[10:38] Kuni
    So this was the enemy's objective.
[10:40] Naka
    You're saying they were
    trying to frame the Agency?
[10:46] Kuni
    Maybe it wasn't my time to shine,
    despite what Dazai said.
[10:51] Naka
    Kunikida-san...
[10:55] Kuni
    Where's Ms. Sasaki?
SIGN    Infirmary
[10:56] Naka
    She should be in the infirmary.
[11:01] Dazai
    Oh, that's great.
[11:06] Nobuko
    Thank you so much for
    saving me the other day.
[11:09] Nobuko
    If you hadn't come when you did,
[11:11] Nobuko
    I wouldn't be alive right now.
[11:13] Kuni
    Not at all.
[11:14] Nobuko
    Not to mention, you even let me
    stay at your residence last night.
[11:18] Kuni
    Huh?
[11:19] Naka
    Where did you stay?
[11:22] Dazai
    My place!
[11:22] NK
    What?!
[11:24] Nobuko
    I'm... deeply indebted to Dazai-sama.
[11:28] Dazai
    See?
[11:30] Naka
    I-Is that something detectives
    are allowed to do?
[11:34] Dazai
    It seems Sasaki-san didn't see who it was.
[11:38] Dazai
    She apparently faints a
    lot due to anemia.
[11:41] Dazai
    That's why she fainted on
    the day she was abducted, too.
[11:45] Dazai
    I don't know how she was abducted afterward.
[11:48] Kuni
    So she's your type?
[11:50] Dazai
    I like all women.
[11:52] Dazai
    But Sasaki-san seems like the type
    who'd commit suicide with me if I ask,
[11:56] Dazai
    which is nice.
[11:58] Dazai
    But what about you, Kunikida-kun?
[12:00] Dazai
    Is she your type?
[12:01] Kuni
    She is a victim in the case
    and a witness. That's it.
[12:05] Dazai
    Well, that's how you would roll.
[12:08] Dazai
    Oh, Atsushi-kun, want to read it?
SIGN    Ideal
[12:10] Dazai
    His ideal woman.
[12:13] Kuni
    You bastard!
[12:13] Kuni
    When'd you swipe that?
SIGN    Ideal
[12:15] Naka
    Read? You mean it's
    written down in here?
[12:17] Dazai
    Kunikida-kun's notebook
[12:18] Dazai
    has a wide range of schedules,
    plans, and ideals recorded in it.
[12:23] Dazai
    See, like here.
[12:24] Naka
    Whoa!
SIGN    Ideal
[12:25] Naka
    Th-This is too much...
[12:30] Kuni
    You have a problem with it?
[12:32] Naka
    No, I can sympathize with your
    vision of an ideal woman, but...
[12:37] Dazai
    You should probably not share
    that vision with women.
[12:41] Kuni
    Forget about me!
[12:42] Kuni
    We're talking about the
    abductions right now!
[12:44] Kuni
    Have we picked up on anything?
[12:46] Dazai
    Yeah.
[12:47] Dazai
    In this newspaper photo,
[12:49] Dazai
    you look pretty manly.
[12:51] Kuni
    Is that your way of indicating
    that you want me to punch you?
[12:54] Dazai
    What's regrettable is this...
[12:56] Dazai
    You should've picked
    sexier eyeglass frames
[12:58] Dazai
    if you were going to end up in the news.
[13:01] Dazai
    They're so plain.
[13:02] Kuni
    Hey...
[13:03] Dazai
    Only a naturally flamboyant person
    like me could pull off wearing them.
[13:07] Dazai
    What do you think, Atsushi-kun?
[13:08] Naka
    Not bad, really.
[13:10] Kuni
    They only scream "con man" to me.
[13:14] Kuni
    Wait...
[13:16] Dazai
    What's the matter?
[13:19] Kuni
    Let's go, both of you.
[13:22] Kuni
    I know who's behind this.
[13:26] Kuni
    Sorry for the short notice.
[13:28] Driver
    You said on the phone that you'd figured
    out who's behind the serial murder case.
[13:32] Driver
    You're on your way to arrest the killer?
[13:35] Kuni
    That's right.
[13:36] Driver
    Then let's hurry.
[13:37] Driver
    Where to?
[13:39] Kuni
    Here.
[13:40] Driver
    Huh?
[13:41] Kuni
    This is where the abductions took place,
[13:42] Kuni
    and you are the kidnapper.
[13:44] Kuni
    You dosed passengers with sleeping gas,
[13:47] Kuni
    and abduct them after they fell unconscious.
[13:50] Kuni
    You wore a gas mask.
[13:52] Naka
    What were his reasons?
[13:54] Dazai
    I can think of one.
[13:57] Dazai
    Cargo.
[13:58] Naka
    Cargo?
[13:59] Dazai
    He'd sell them off.
[14:02] Dazai
    There's a black market for
    organs in the underground.
[14:06] Dazai
    The margin isn't great because of the exchange rate,
[14:10] Dazai
    but if you're pulling it off alone,
     it's a decent payout.
[14:13] Naka
    That's horrible.
[14:14] Driver
    Wait a minute.
[14:15] Driver
    Hang on.
[14:17] Driver
    If I'd used this taxi to abduct people,
[14:19] Driver
    the city police would've found me already
    when tracing the victims' last known locations.
[14:22] Kuni
    No, no one looked twice at this taxi.
[14:26] Kuni
    Because all the victims would vanish and
    become untraceable the following day.
[14:32] Kuni
    When your targets boarded the taxi
    and you made them unconscious,
[14:35] Kuni
    you'd imprison them and take
    their clothes and luggage.
[14:39] Kuni
    That's why all the victims at the
    hospital were in their underwear.
[14:43] Kuni
    You would then wear their clothes
[14:45] Kuni
    to disguise yourself as them,
[14:47] Kuni
    then check into the hotels where
    they'd made reservations.
[14:49] Kuni
    You made sure you would show up on
    security cameras for that reason.
[14:52] Kuni
    The victims were all of approximately
    the same height and build
[14:55] Kuni
    because you were choosing passengers
    you could impersonate.
[14:59] Kuni
    Many wore hats and glasses
[15:02] Kuni
    because that made passing
    yourself off as them easier.
[15:05] Kuni
    If the security feeds show someone
    looking reasonably like the victim,
[15:09] Kuni
    you can dupe the police easily.
[15:11] Kuni
    By the time the last known sighting
    of the "victim" was recorded,
[15:15] Kuni
    the real victim had already been abducted.
[15:18] Dazai
    Ms. Sasaki's abduction was
    even easier, wasn't it?
[15:22] Dazai
    After she collapsed at the train station,
[15:24] Dazai
    a good Samaritan paid for her cab ride.
[15:28] Dazai
    It's faster to hail a cab than call
    an ambulance at a train station.
[15:31] Driver
    That's all circumstantial evidence.
[15:34] Dazai
    I suppose.
[15:36] Dazai
    You're right.
[15:39] Dazai
    What now, Kunikida-kun?
[15:41] Kuni
    Are you being serious?
[15:43] Driver
    Let's make a deal.
[15:45] Kuni
    A deal?
[15:46] Driver
    If you agree to my conditions,
    I'll turn myself in.
[15:49] Driver
    Please protect me at the
    Armed Detective Agency!
[15:52] Driver
    I need to be protected for 72 hours while
    the prosecution concludes their questioning
[15:56] Driver
    and arranges witness protection.
[15:58] Kuni
    What's this about?
[15:59] Driver
    I was put up to this.
[16:02] Driver
    I was assured by a new-fangled
    organ smuggling organization
[16:04] Driver
    that this was a great deal I'd
    never get caught for, and yet...
[16:09] Kuni
    So there's a group behind all this?
[16:10] Kuni
    Where are they?!
[16:12] Driver
    I don't know.
[16:13] Driver
    I always meet them in the
     Harbor Central Building.
[16:17] Kuni
    So that's the place.
[16:18] Dazai
    And?
[16:19] Dazai
    Why do you need our protection?
[16:21] Driver
    Well...
[16:22] Driver
    It appears one of the people I abducted
[16:24] Driver
    was with the Port Mafia.
[16:27] Dazai
    Well, that's not good—
[16:33] Kuni
    The Port Mafia?!
[16:34] Driver
    Help me!
[16:35] Kuni
    Hey!
[16:35] Driver
    I don't want to die!
[16:37] Kuni
    Wait!
[16:40] Naka
    Kunikida-san.
[16:41] Naka
    I can't get a signal.
[16:42] Dazai
    They must be jamming.
[16:44] Kuni
    If we lose the driver,
[16:45] Kuni
    the truth may never come to light.
[16:47] Kuni
    Dazai, pursue the driver.
[16:48] Kuni
    Brat, get a hold of the
    police and request backup.
[16:51] Kuni
    I'll distract them as a decoy.
[16:52] DN
    Roger!
[16:53] Kuni
    Let's go!

    Metal is fragile,

    What about you all, Armed Detective Agency?
[17:26] Kuni
    You...
[17:27] Kuni
    Akutagawa of the Port Mafia!
[17:29] Aku
    Indeed.
[17:42] Aku
    If you can't shoot straight,
[17:43] Aku
    there's no need for me to devour
     the space around your bullets.
[17:45] Kuni
    My hobbies don't include murder.

[18:03] Kuni
    Come to heel, you aberrant dog.
[18:15] Aku
    It appears the Armed Detective Agency
    is not merely a group of entertainers.
[18:19] Aku
    You're worthy of being Dazai-san's cover.
[18:25] Aku
    Interference.
[18:27] Aku
    Very well.
[18:28] Aku
    Our paths will cross again in the future.
[18:32] Aku
    We'll continue this another time.
[18:36] Kuni
    Don't ever come again.
[18:40] Dazai
    I turned the driver over
    to the military police.
[18:43] Naka
    So this is the building the organ
    traffickers used for their deals?
[18:53] Kuni
    They've already flown the coop.
[18:54] Naka
    The wall's scorched black.
[18:56] Dazai
    This is where the Azure
    King blew himself up.
[19:00] Kuni
    That's right.
[19:01] Naka
    What?
[19:01] Naka
    You mean, the one in the infamous
    Azure Flag terrorist incident?
[19:04] Naka
    That Azure King?
[19:07] Dazai
    That's right.
[19:11] Dazai
    A terrorist who destroyed many
    national and corporate facilities.
SIGN    Azure Flag Terrorist Incident
[19:15] Dazai
    From the time I heard the
    term "Azure Messenger,"
[19:18] Dazai
    I've been wondering if there
    were ties to the Azure King.
[19:22] Naka
    I'd heard that the Azure King
    blew himself up in the end.
[19:25] Naka
    So this was the place.
[19:27] Naka
    He committed suicide after the
    police cornered him, right?
[19:31] Kuni
    That's right.
[19:32] Kuni
    I'd determined that this was his hideout
[19:35] Kuni
    and reported it to the police.
[19:37] Naka
    You were the one who found
    the Azure King's hideout?
[19:41] Kuni
    But on that day,
[19:43] Kuni
    the military, the public safety bureau, and
    the police were all working in tandem,
[19:46] Kuni
    so the chain of command was in utter chaos.
[19:49] Kuni
    Only five detectives arrived at the hideout
    in a timely manner upon receiving the report.
[19:55] Kuni
    To add further insult to injury,
[19:56] Kuni
    the Azure King got wind
    of the police's actions,
[20:01] Kuni
    so he holed himself up with a bomb.
[20:04] Kuni
    After a conflicting set of orders,
[20:07] Kuni
    a decision was made to raid.
[20:09] Kuni
    But ordinary policemen without special
     training or abilities didn't stand a chance.
[20:17] Kuni
    Cornered, the Azure King blew
    himself up and perished,
[20:20] Kuni
    along with the five detectives.
[20:23] Dazai
    I remember now, Kunikida-kun.
[20:25] Dazai
    One of the detectives was that
    Rokuzou boy's father, wasn't he?
[20:31] Kuni
    He was a good detective with
    a strong sense of justice.
[20:35] Kuni
    I'm the one who reported the
    hideout's location to the police.
[20:38] Kuni
    I may as well have set the bomb off myself.
[20:40] Naka
    That's not true!
[20:42] Naka
    It's the terrorist's fault
    for blowing himself up!
[20:44] Dazai
    That's right, Atsushi-kun.
[20:46] Dazai
    Yet Kunikida-kun can't stop trying
    to look out for the Rokuzou boy...
[20:52] Dazai
    in his deceased father's stead.
[20:57] Naka
    What is it?
[21:02] Kuni
    Another job for the Agency.
[21:04] Kuni
    The client...
SIGN    Regards,
    The Azure Messenger
[21:06] Kuni
    is the Azure Messenger.
[21:07] Dazai
    I see.
[21:09] Dazai
    I'm starting to see who
    this Azure Messenger is.
[21:12] Dazai
    So? What's the job?
[21:14] Kuni
    Disarming a bomb.
[21:15] Naka
    A bomb?
[21:16] Kuni
    If we don't disarm the
    bomb by sunset tomorrow,
[21:19] Kuni
    several hundred people will die.
[21:21] Naka
    A bomb capable of that can't be easy...
[21:23] Kuni
    The equipment here is for building a bomb.
[21:27] Kuni
    With this setup,
[21:28] Kuni
    you could build a very advanced bomb.
[21:31] Naka
    But...
[21:33] Kuni
    Don't worry. We won't let the bomb go off.
[21:36] Kuni
    We'll stop it for sure this time!
[21:39] Kuni
    
[23:10] Naka
    What should we do?
[23:12] Naka
    If we don't find and disarm
    the bomb by sundown,
[23:14] Naka
    there will be hundreds of casualties.
[23:16] ?
    If we cannot find the bomb
[23:18] ?
    and lives are lost,
[23:20] ?
    we no longer have the right to call
    ourselves a detective agency.
[23:22] Naka
    Oh, President.
[23:24] ?
    Think of this mission as a fight for
    the Agency's existence and pride.
[23:28] ?
    Begin the investigation!
[23:29] Naka
    Man, where'd Dazai-san run
    off to now, of all times?
