[01:59] Nagumo
    I have no money.
[02:03] Mashiro
    Want me to lend you some?
[02:04] Nagumo
    Get real. How much could
     a kid like you even have?
[02:09] Mashiro
    Oh, I'd say around 500 yen, easy.
[02:12] Nagumo
    I feel pathetic for getting my hopes up,
    even for just an instant.
[02:16] Asunaro
    Ah, I see.
[02:18] Asunaro
    So this is Nagumo-sensei's agency.
[02:20] Nagumo
    Whoa! Who are you?!
[02:22] Asunaro
    Oh, do forgive me.
[02:25] Asunaro
    You see, I have my reasons for coming to—
[02:27] Mashiro
    Damn thief!
[02:29] Asunaro
    Wh-Wh-Wh-What's your problem?
    I am no thief!
[02:33] Mashiro
    Liar! How'd you get in here
    when the door was locked?!
[02:37] Asunaro
    It was a piece of cake
    with my lock picking skills.
[02:40] Mashiro
    You are literally a proper thief!
[02:42] Mashiro
    Sit your ass down,
    you four-eyed thieving bastard!
[02:44] Asunaro
    Just listen to me, you barbarian!
[02:46] Nagumo
    Ow, ow, ow. That shocked me
    so much, my heart hurts.

    If a mystery resembles

[03:00] Asunaro
    I am, by my very nature,
    compelled to investigate.
[03:03] Mashiro
    Don't pick people's locks
    and treat it like a puzzle!
[03:06] Nagumo
    Oh, you're the great detective Asunaro?
    I see you on TV a lot.
[03:11] Nagumo
    You're the top young detective
    in the spotlight right now.
[03:15] Asunaro
    Oh, no, no! I am nowhere near your level.
[03:19] Nagumo
    So what brings you here?
[03:22] Nagumo
    Wait, what's wrong?
[03:25] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[03:26] Asunaro
    Ten minutes have passed since I entered,
    and I have not even been served coffee.
[03:31] Asunaro
    What could it mean?
[03:33] Nagumo
    Oh, where are our manners?
[03:35] Mashiro
    There ya go.
[03:36] Asunaro
    Thank—
[03:38] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[03:40] Asunaro
    Most hosts would serve it with milk and sugar
    on the side if I did not request it black.
[03:45] Asunaro
    What could it mean?
[03:46] Nagumo
    Okay, I can tell this guy's
    gonna be a real pain!
[03:51] Asunaro
    I have come today for
    one reason, and one alone.
[03:54] Asunaro
    Nagumo-sensei.
[03:56] Asunaro
    Please hire me as your assistant.
[04:00] Nagumo
    Huh?
[04:01] Mashiro
    What?!
[04:02] Mashiro
    He already has an assistant!
[04:04] Nagumo
    You're already a
    full-fledged detective, anyway.
[04:07] Nagumo
    Why would you want to work for me now?
[04:09] Asunaro
    Because it was you who
    made me what I am today.
[04:15] Asunaro
    When I was in grade school,
[04:16] Asunaro
    I read an old article about you,
    and could not tear my eyes away.

[04:20] Asunaro
    A simple high school student,
[04:22] Asunaro
    edging out all the adults with
    his intellect alone to stand at the top.
[04:27] Asunaro
    When I saw you stealing
    all the media attention,
[04:30] Asunaro
    I dove into this business and
    dedicated myself to being just like you!
[04:35] Asunaro
    And now that I have grown stronger...
    Yes, it is time!
[04:38] Asunaro
    I, Asunaro, am determined
    to repay this debt to you,
[04:41] Asunaro
    and I have come here
    hoping to be of use to you.
[04:45] Nagumo
    Yeah, uh, I appreciate the sentiment,
    but I really don't have the money to hire—
[04:50] Asunaro
    I will, of course, work for free.
[04:52] Asunaro
    After all, my work is going so well
    that I have grown stinking rich.
[04:56] Nagumo
    Yeah, I bet.
[04:58] Asunaro
    In fact, I intend to pay you a tuition fee.
[05:01] Nagumo
    What?! For real?
[05:03] Nagumo
    Mind explaining in a bit more detail?
[05:05] Mashiro
    Wait a minute!
[05:07] Mashiro
    Why aren't you including me
     in this discussion?
[05:10] Mashiro
    Shouldn't your first assistant, Mashiro-chan,
    be the first one you consult?
[05:18] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[05:20] Asunaro
    A gorilla wearing clothes and speaking.
[05:22] Mashiro
    This guy is seriously pissing me off!
[05:24] Mashiro
    You must have no common sense at all,
    barging in here out of the blue!
[05:28] Nagumo
    Uh, you showed up unannounced, too.
[05:30] Mashiro
    Wanting to be like the old dude
    isn't enough to be his assistant.
[05:33] Asunaro
    You think my admiration for him
    is all I'm bringing to this?
[05:36] Asunaro
    I'm quite certain I can be
    more useful to Sensei than you.
[05:40] Mashiro
    Excuse me?
[05:42] Mashiro
    Okay! You against me,
    Mr. Round Glasses! Let's go!
[05:44] Asunaro
    But of course, I gladly accept.
[05:46] Asunaro
    Oh, but first, another coffee, please.
[05:49] Mashiro
    Comin' right up.
[05:53] Maki
    I will be serving as your MC.
SIGN    Great Detective
    Asunaro's Assistant
SIGN    Kazamaki Hana
[05:55] Maki
    I'm his assistant, Kazamaki.
[05:58] Maki
    You two will compete in three areas
     essential to detective work:
[06:01] Maki
    intellect, deduction skills, and stamina.
[06:05] Maki
    The first to notch up two wins will become
    Mr. Nagumo's official assistant.
[06:09] Maki
    Is that acceptable, Master?
[06:11] Asunaro
    Of course, Maki-chan. Not a problem.
[06:14] Mashiro
    Wait, wait, wait! It seems unfair
    that your assistant gets to set this up!
[06:18] Maki
    Not to worry.
[06:20] Maki
    I genuinely despise Master.
[06:22] Asunaro
    Aw, you're so hard on me, Maki-chan.
[06:25] Maki
    I expect overtime pay for this.
[06:28] Asunaro
    She talks big, but at the end of the day,
    she's head over heels for me.
[06:32] Asunaro
    Aren't you, Maki-chan?
[06:34] Mashiro
    Are you?
[06:36] Asunaro
    Please stop holding your nose.
[06:40] Maki
    The first round will be
    a contest of intellect.
SIGN    Guest
[06:45] Maki
    You will both be given the same wire puzzle.
[06:48] Maki
    The one who gets it apart first
    will score the first win.
[06:52] Maki
    Are you ready?
[06:54] Maki
    Then...
[06:56] Maki
    Start.
[07:05] Maki
    Oh, my. Great Detective Asunaro is so fast.
[07:11] Asunaro
    Behold! I will soon have it apart!
[07:14] Asunaro
    Couldn't you have entertained me a bit—
[07:20] Asunaro
    Impossible.
[07:22] Asunaro
    She solved it already?
[07:27] Asunaro
    She cut the wire!
[07:29] Maki
    Mashiro-san has one win.
[07:30] Mashiro
    Yeah, baby!
[07:31] Asunaro
    What?! You're allowing that?!
[07:33] Maki
    Well, I only said the one who got it
    apart first would be the winner.
[07:36] Asunaro
    You're a cheater.
[07:38] Asunaro
    I refuse to accept this atrocity.

    "We refuse to believe that which

[07:47] Asunaro
    She's infuriating!
[07:50] Maki
    The next contest will be deduction skills.
[07:53] Maki
    This is a coded phrase I came up with.
[07:56] Maki
    The first one to figure out
    what's written here is the winner.
[08:00] Maki
    Ready, and...
[08:02] Maki
    Start.
[08:04] Nagumo
    Uh, do we really need to be outside for this?
[08:08] Mashiro INT
    What is it?
[08:10] Mashiro INT
    I can see what looks like
    an "E" here and there.
[08:12] Mashiro INT
    Is it English?
[08:14] Mashiro INT
    I can't get enough information
    from the other characters, though.
[08:17] Mashiro INT
    Are they actually drawings?
[08:21] Asunaro
    Maki-chan, this is too easy.
[08:23] Mashiro
    Say what?
[08:25] Asunaro
    The answer is pi.
[08:27] Asunaro
    Those are the unlit parts
    on a seven-segment display, yes?
[08:31] Maki
    Tsk. That's correct.
[08:33] Asunaro
    You won't even look at the winner?!
[08:35] Mashiro
    Hey! That was way too fast!
[08:38] Mashiro
    I bet you knew the answer in advance.

[08:49] Mashiro
    You little...
[08:50] Asunaro
    Also, do you even know what pi is?
[08:53] Mashiro
    Of course I do!
    Are you tryna pick a fight?!
[08:56] Maki
    Our final contest is one of stamina.
[08:59] Mashiro
    What's that?
[09:00] Maki
    Let's call it a "stamp rally race," shall we?
[09:04] Maki
    You'll collect stamps I've placed
    in three locations around the park.
[09:07] Maki
    The first to make it back here is the winner.
[09:10] Asunaro
    I'll help you search for your next job.
[09:13] Mashiro
    Keep talkin', buddy.
[09:15] Maki
    Now, on your marks.
[09:18] Maki
    Ready...
[09:19] Maki
    Start.
[09:22] Maki
    If you're not going to
    take this seriously, I'm leaving.
[09:25] Asunaro
    Bold of you to slam into me like
    a sumo wrestler, you cowardly muscle-girl.
[09:29] Mashiro
    I should be calling you the coward,
    you four-eyed shitbag!
[09:34] Maki
    I'm sorry you have to go along
    with this nonsense.
[09:37] Nagumo
    Oh, it's fine.
[09:39] Maki
    Master—that is, Asunaro—
    admires you deeply.
[09:44] Maki
    You're all he ever talks about.
[09:47] Nagumo
    He's got some weird taste, then.
[09:50] Maki
    He wants you to reclaim your former shine.
[09:56] Maki
    His wish for you to return to
    center stage has brought him this far.
SIGN    First Stamp
[10:01] Nagumo
    Do I look that much duller now?
[10:04] Maki
    Oh! I'm sorry! That's not what I meant!
[10:07] Nagumo
    Nah, I was just joking.
[10:10] Nagumo
    Asunaro-kun reminds me of myself
    when I was younger.
[10:14] Maki
    Huh?
[10:15] Nagumo
    I bet he's enjoying
    the hell out of this stage,
[10:18] Nagumo
    where his skills respond and grow so quickly.
[10:21] Nagumo
    He's in no doubt that
    he can keep it up forever.
SIGN    Third Stamp
[10:24] Nagumo
    The only way he differs from
    the younger me is he has support.
[10:30] Nagumo
    I had no one, much less a partner who'd give
     me a push or rein me in when I needed it.
[10:37] Nagumo
    So I envy him, really.
[10:39] Nagumo
    A partner who's your own age
    is probably easier to talk to.
[10:44] Maki
    His own age?
[10:48] Maki
    I guess I'm still worth
    keeping around for a while.
[10:50] Nagumo
    Hm? You say something?
[10:53] Maki
    No, nothing.
[10:55] Maki
    So is that girl your support now?
[10:58] Nagumo
    Hm, I'm not sure.
[11:02] Maki
    I think you make quite a good pair.
[11:04] Nagumo
    Yeah?
[11:06] Maki
    Of course, you needn't worry
    about Asunaro's oath.
[11:09] Maki
    Even if she loses,
    please don't fire Mashiro-chan.
[11:13] Nagumo
    Oh, it's all good.
[11:19] Nagumo
    No one can beat Mashiro
    in a contest of stamina.
[11:26] Maki
    It pains me to say anything
    that constitutes praise for Asunaro...
[11:30] Maki
    but I don't think she has a chance.
[11:34] Asunaro
    What's the matter?
    You're awfully short of breath!
[11:37] Asunaro
    I've trained to anticipate any outcome,
     no matter the task, since I was a child.
[11:42] Asunaro
    I am fundamentally different from a civilian
    like you who merely has athletic prowess.
[11:48] Mashiro INT
    Damn it. My body feels so heavy.
[11:52] Asunaro
    Maki-chan!
[11:54] Mashiro INT
    If I lose, I won't be able
    to stay with the old dude.

    Removing your top layer to reduce weight?
     I appreciate your refusal to give up.
[12:18] Asunaro
    Go on, throw it all away.
    It will do nothing to close the gap.
[12:23] Asunaro
    No matter...
[12:24] Asunaro
    how much you toss...
[12:27] Asunaro
    Wait, how much are you even carrying?!

    Wh-What on earth is that?

    Okay! I've purged

    Now I just need to catch up.
[12:39] Mashiro INT
    I can do this. Just another step.

    I suppose I have found a rival

[13:33] Asunaro
    I will not lose next time.
[13:35] Mashiro
    Oh, okay.
[13:37] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[13:39] Asunaro
    At a time like this,
    shouldn't the other party say
[13:41] Asunaro
    something like, "You did well yourself,"
[13:44] Asunaro
    giving the sense that
    a new rivalry has been born?
[13:47] Asunaro
    What could it mean?
[13:48] Mashiro
    You're annoying as hell!
    Just go away already!
[13:51] Asunaro
    No need to tell me. I'm leaving.
[13:53] Asunaro
    Maki-chan, time to go! Maki-chan!
[13:56] Nagumo
    Oh, she already left.
[13:59] Nagumo
    She said she was expecting a delivery.
[14:01] Asunaro
    Maki-chan!
[14:02] Asunaro
    Maki-chan! You're taking
    your mischief a bit too far!
[14:07] Nagumo
    I didn't even do anything, and I'm exhausted.
[14:11] Mashiro
    Are you okay with that, old dude?
[14:15] Mashiro
    I mean, if you made him your assistant,
     you'd get money for it.
[14:20] Mashiro
    Wouldn't he be a better assistant than m—
[14:23] Mashiro
    Hey! You're gonna shrink me!
[14:23] Nagumo
    What're you acting like
    a considerate adult for?
[14:27] Nagumo
    So long as you bring in more money
    than he does, there's no problem.
[14:32] Nagumo
    You can do that, right?
[14:40] Mashiro
    Yeah!
[14:48] Nagumo
    I'm broke.
[14:50] Mashiro
    I told you, I can lend you some.
[14:53] Asunaro
    You seem to be in a bind.
[14:55] Mashiro
    Gah! You again?!
[14:57] Asunaro
    I didn't pick the lock today.
[14:59] Mashiro
    Why are you here? You're not after
    a revenge match already, are you?
[15:02] Asunaro
    Why am I here?
[15:06] Asunaro
    Well, why else?
[15:08] Asunaro
    I'm here to ask Sensei to do a job for—
[15:10] Maki
    I'm sorry about all the fuss
    last time, Nagumo-sensei.
[15:13] Maki
    Please enjoy these
    with Mashiro-san, if you'd like.
[15:17] Mashiro
    Ooh, yokan.
[15:18] Nagumo
    You didn't have to go out of your way.
[15:20] Maki
    Oh, no such thing.
[15:21] Asunaro
    Excuse me, Maki-chan.
    You seem to have spoken over me.
[15:24] Asunaro
    Oh, by the way, I chose that yokan myself.
[15:27] Asunaro
    As I was saying, I'm here to ask
    Nagumo-sensei to do a job for me!
[15:28] Mashiro
    I'm gonna cut this yokan.
    Have a seat, Maki-chan.
[15:30] Maki
    Oh, thank you.
[15:32] Mashiro
    This is some fatty yokan!
[15:34] Nagumo
    Have you never heard of chestnut yokan?
[15:37] Asunaro
    Wait. Could it be? Am I actually dead?

    The old dude has hyperesthesia.
[16:33] Maki
    Sounds like you get enough stimulation.

[16:44] Mashiro
    Tailing as a trio is kinda fun!
[16:47] Nagumo
    Come on. This isn't a game.
[16:50] Maki
    Oh, Master has stopped.
[16:53] Nagumo
    He keeps staring at that guy in the glasses.
[16:55] Mashiro
    You think he's the stalker?
[16:57] Nagumo
    What? He solved the case himself?
[17:00] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[17:02] Asunaro
    That man doesn't look like he exercises,
    but he's wearing earbuds meant for jogging.
[17:08] Asunaro
    What could it mean?
[17:09] Nagumo
    Whoa, that's a rude first impression.
[17:12] Maki
    It is Master's belief that he should
    be asking questions at all times.
[17:16] Mashiro
    Oh, he stopped again.
[17:18] Nagumo
    What's up this time?
[17:21] Asunaro
    How very odd.
[17:22] Asunaro
    That woman has her car
    filled with cat knick-knacks,
[17:27] Asunaro
    but her husband has the face of a dog.
[17:29] Asunaro
    Is he gonna be doing this all day?
[17:31] Mashiro
    I'd never want to live with him.
[17:34] Nagumo
    Huh? Some kinda group is coming this way.
[17:36] Mashiro
    Whoa, a whole flock of girls.
[17:39] Maki
    That is also a daily occurrence.
[17:42] Mashiro
    Uh, they're kinda engulfing him...
[17:45] Maki
    That is also a daily occurrence.
[17:47] Mashiro
    Oh, he's emerging.
[17:50] Mashiro
    Wait, all his clothes got ripped off!
[17:53] Nagumo
    Are those girls muggers or what?
[17:55] Maki
    That is also a daily occurrence.
[17:57] Nagumo/Mashiro
    For real?!
[17:59] Nagumo
    Shouldn't we get him some clothes?
[18:02] Maki
    Not to worry.
[18:05] Mashiro
    Oh, a different set of fans.
[18:09] Nagumo
    What was that, a pit stop?
[18:11] Maki
    Most of Master's clothes
    are gifts he receives from fans.
[18:15] Mashiro
    Old dude, is there
    any point in tailing this guy?
[18:19] Nagumo
    You haven't noticed, Mashiro?
[18:21] Mashiro
    Huh?
[18:22] Nagumo
    Someone shady has been
    following him this whole time.
[18:26] Nagumo
    Two o'clock.
[18:30] Mashiro
    Whoa, you're right! Who is that?
[18:32] Nagumo
    No, more to the right.
[18:33] Nagumo
    Although, yeah, that guy
    looks pretty wild, too.
[18:37] Mashiro
    That one, huh? You're right. Looks shady.
[18:40] Nagumo
    Asunaro-kun, casually relocate
    to the place I'm about to direct you to.
[18:44] Asunaro
    Understood.
[18:58] Asunaro
    Oh, you have only just noticed?
[19:01] Asunaro
    You are quite the fool.
[19:02] Asunaro
    You are already trapped.
[19:05] Asunaro
    Now, why don't you tell me your reason?
[19:09] Asunaro
    Why have you been stalking me?
[19:13] Shady Guy
    S-Stalking? I'm not!
[19:16] Asunaro
    Hmph. That's what they all say.
[19:18] Asunaro
    The worst stalkers don't
    even realize they're doing it.
[19:21] Shady Guy
    I told you, I'm not!
[19:24] Asunaro
    Did I not just tell you
    that you were trapped?
[19:27] Asunaro
    Do it, Sensei!
[19:31] Nagumo
    Would you say you're tougher than a bear?
[19:39] Nagumo
    It was a long damn time ago,
[19:42] Nagumo
    but I once had a request to get rid of a bear
    that was wrecking someone's field.
[19:49] Nagumo
    Hey, I'm not done talki—
[19:51] Nagumo
    Oh, that's bad, right?
    That joint shouldn't bend that way.
[19:55] Asunaro
    Sensei!
[19:56] Nagumo
    M-Mashiro! Don't let him get past you!
[19:59] Mashiro
    Understood.
[20:00] Mashiro
    Go on. Choose left or right.
[20:03] Mashiro
    I'll stop you either way.
[20:05] Shady Guy
    Oh, hey, it's Murobuchi, the hammer thrower.
[20:07] Mashiro
    What?! Murobuchi?!
[20:09] Mashiro
    M-M-Murobuchi, um...
[20:12] Mashiro
    I've always been a fan.
[20:13] Mashiro
    Would you please arm-wrestle with me?
[20:14] Nagumo
    Oh, come on! Are you really that gullible?
[20:17] Nagumo INT
    Wait, how does he know what Mashiro's into?
[20:21] Nagumo
    That's not important right now.
[20:22] Nagumo
    Maki-san, it's up to you!
[20:24] Nagumo
    You've gotta stop him!
[20:25] Maki
    Huh? What?
[20:31] Nagumo
    Didn't see that coming.
[20:34] Nagumo
    You really saved the day.
[20:36] Nagumo
    So that's why you dress the way you do, huh?
[20:38] Maki
    Huh? No, really, that's not...
[20:41] Nagumo
    Well, in any case, we finally got him.
[20:44] Asunaro
    Now, why don't we take a look at his face?
[20:48] Nagumo
    What? Nezu?
[20:50] Mashiro
    Why is it you?
[20:51] Nezu
    Y-You've got it all wrong!
    I'm not a stalker!
[20:54] Mashiro
    Why'd you run, then?
[20:56] Nezu
    Well, you guys looked so serious,
    and it was kinda scary, so...
[21:00] Nezu
    But forget that! He's the stalker! Right there!
[21:03] Asunaro
    Wh-What nonsense is this?
[21:05] Asunaro
    Who is it you think I'm stalking?
[21:08] Nezu
    Big Bro Nagumo, obviously!
[21:10] Nezu
    He's been hanging around the agency
    staring at it for about a month now.
[21:13] Nezu
    Whenever Big Bro steps out, he follows him.
[21:15] Nezu
    He's clearly a stalker!
[21:18] Maki
    Master... What is the meaning of this?
[21:22] Asunaro
    Wait, wait, wait! Maki-chan, it's a mistake!
[21:24] Maki
    Where is the mistake?
[21:27] Asunaro
    I was only watching for the right moment
    to introduce myself to Sensei.
[21:33] Asunaro
    I also thought, for future reference,
[21:36] Asunaro
    I should find out his lifestyle patterns
     and interests and such.
[21:40] Asunaro
    Who could call such consideration "stalking"?
[21:43] Nagumo/Mashiro/Maki INT
    I sure could.
[21:45] Maki
    Master...
[21:48] Asunaro
    No, Maki-chan! This isn't...
[21:51] Maki
    I will hear your excuses later.
[21:55] Asunaro
    Hup.
[21:57] Mashiro
    Nezu-kun! Get the stalker!
[21:59] Nezu
    Got it!
[22:01] Nagumo
    They say the worst stalkers
    don't even realize they're doing it.
[22:06] Nagumo
    I guess they're right.
