    A Small Person in Need of Rescue
[02:46] Shun
    Daigo...
[03:05] Man A
    Oh, that's right.
[03:06] Man A
    Mei-chan was there.
[03:08] Man A
    I'm sorry. I told them that all
    of you had left the house.
[03:14] Man A
    And the way it was going, it looked like
    it was going to spread to our house...
[03:23] Yamagami
    Please stay calm.
[03:25] Yamagami
    One of our squad members has
    gone in to disconnect it.
[03:29] Yamagami
    Thanks to you coming home, we now know
    where the junction box is located.
[03:34] Yamagami
    It will be okay.
[03:36] Yamagami(m)
    As long as she has evacuated
    to a dry spot...
[03:41] Yamagami(m)
    The solar panel cables caught fire
    and melted their insulation,
[03:45] Yamagami(m)
    causing arcs of electricity to shoot out.
[03:49] Yamagami
    It will be okay.
[03:52] Yamgami(m)
    Toake's got this.
[04:37] Daigo(m)
    It's so sunny.
[04:39] Daigo(m)
    We'll need a lot solar covers
    to completely cover the panels.
SIGN    A squad usually only has one solar cover
[04:46] Daigo(m)
    As long as the sun keeps
    shining on the panels,
[04:48] Daigo(m)
    they'll continue to generate electricity.
[05:08] (Flashback) Yamagami
    We have not seen any visible
    spread of the fire.
[05:10] (Flashback) Yamagami
    As it is possible that the insulation
    is still burning inside the walls,
[05:13] (Flashback) Yamagami
    the usual procedure is to continue spraying
    water until everything is extinguished.
[05:18] (Flashback) Yamagami
    However, we were just informed
    that someone was left behind,
[05:22] (Flashback) Yamagami
    meaning we will stop spraying
    water temporarily.
[05:24] (Flashback) Yamagami
    We will use this time to enter the premises and
     disconnect the power-generating system.
[05:29] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Put on your high voltage rubber
    gloves and medium-length boots!
[05:33] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Even with those, make sure to not
    carelessly touch pillars or walls.
[05:37] (Flashback) Yamagami
    We suspect that 100-volt electric arcs
    are appearing throughout the house.
[05:42] (Flashback) All
    Yes, sir!
[05:44] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Going in, we have...
[05:50] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Okay, Toake.
[05:52] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Igarashi and Onoda, you will support
    his entry from the basket.
[05:55] (Flashback) Yamagami
    Tsubaki and Usui, you'll keep the
    scene safe and transport materials.
[06:00] (Flashback) All
    Yes, sir!
[06:05] Shun(m)
    Daigo...
[06:10] Daigo(M)
    It's a bigger space than I thought.
[06:13] Daigo(M)
    I know roughly where the box is,
    but I can't waste any time.
[06:17] Daigo(M)
    I need to disconnect it fast.
[06:19] Daigo(M)
    Please...
[06:26] Daigo(M)
    be somewhere that's been
    untouched by the water...
[06:48] Daigo(M)
    Please have found that spot...
[06:57] Daigo(M)
    Please be alive.
[07:13] Daigo
    Junction box, located!
[07:49] Daigo
    I've finished disconnecting the junction box!
[07:56] Igarashi
    All right!
[07:57] Igarashi
    Daigo, you're not hurt, are you?
[07:59] Igarashi
    Come out carefully.
[08:03] Daigo
    Mei!
[08:06] Daigo
    Mei!
[08:10] Daigo(m)
    She's small, and if she got electrocuted,
    she wouldn't stand a chance.
[08:15] Daigo(m)
    Please be alive.
[08:19] Daigo(m)
    Mei!
[08:21] Daigo(m)
    Please!
[08:25] Daigo(m)
    Mei.
[08:26] Daigo(m)
    Mei! Mei!
[08:29] Igarashi
    Fuwa Rescue 1st Squad member
    to Fuwa Rescue captain,
[08:33] Igarashi
    requesting assistance from the
    ground crew to locate the 558.
[08:37] Shun
    Igarashi-san...
[08:39] Igarashi
    It's going to be tough for Daigo by himself.
[08:45] Shun(m)
    Daigo...
[08:47] Daigo
    Mei!
[08:48] Daigo
    Mei!
[09:02] Daigo
    Mei. You're Mei, right?
[09:16] Daigo
    You survived. Good job!
[09:22] Daigo
    All right!
[09:23] Daigo
    You must have been scared!
[09:28] Daigo
    The 558 cat has been secured!
[09:32] Narrator
    A 558 is a beloved animal;
    the radio code for a pet.
[09:39] Daigo
    I'm coming out!
[09:42] HQ
    As the use of water is safe now,
    resume extinguishing the interior.
[09:55] Wife
    Mei!
[09:56] Igusa
    Mei!
[09:58] Igusa
    Thank you so much!
[10:02] Igusa
    I can't believe this...
[10:04] Igusa
    She's incredibly shy.
[10:07] Igusa
    She never comes out for a
     person she doesn't know.
[10:13] Igusa
    Which is why we didn't dare to hope...
[10:17] Shun(m)
    Oh, right.
[10:22] Shun(m)
    He's like a cat, too.
[10:24] Igusa
    We don't have any children,
    and Mei is all we live for.
[10:29] Igusa
    Thank you.
[10:32] Wife
    Thank you so much.
[10:34] Wife
    For going this far to save our pet.
[10:38] Wife
    You firefighters are so...
[10:41] Igusa
    Really, thank you so much.
[10:44] Woman
    Thank you!
[10:47] Daigo
    Anybody would have done the same.
[10:49] Daigo
    To our community, pets are
    also priceless treasures.
[10:57] Shun(m)
    Grandma, I think I had the wrong idea.
[11:03] Yamagami
    As there is no danger of electrocution now,
[11:06] Yamagami
    we can spray water into the house again.
[11:08] Yamagami
    We will use minimal amounts to
    avoid causing water damage.
[11:13] Igusa
    Thank you.
[11:14] Wife
    Thank you, sir.
[11:28] Shun(M)
    I used to feel incredibly sorry for Daigo.
[11:32] Shun(M)
    I thought that he had become a rescuer
    to atone for his father's sins.
[11:38] Shun(M)
    But it doesn't matter if
    it's a human or an animal.
[11:42] Shun(M)
    He wants to save them.
[11:44] Shun(M)
    I think that's how he's always been.

    What's going on?
[12:44] Yuki
    Are you getting ready for a date?
[12:48] Yuki(M)
    No, I can't ask her a personal

    That's rare.

    I'm going now, Grandfather.
[13:24] Grandpa
    You going on a date by any chance?
[13:27] Grandpa
    All right!
[13:28] Grandpa
    Go out and get 'em!
[13:29] Matoi
    It's not a date.
[13:30] Matoi
    I'm meeting Fire Sergeant Toyomu.
[13:32] Grandpa
    What, Toyomu-san?!
[13:34] Grandpa
    Even better!
[13:36] Grandpa
    That woman is one of a kind!
[13:38] Grandpa
    If you keep dawdling,
    someone else will snatch—
[13:40] Matoi
    I can learn a lot from her.
[13:42] Matoi
    Sometimes we meet and talk.
[13:45] Grandpa
    L-Learn?
[13:48] Grandpa
    Are you serious?
[13:49] Grandpa
    So you're still a total bore.
[13:52] Matoi
    I'll ask her to come visit you again.
[14:06] Grandpa
    Seriously, I wish she'd
    marry into our family.
[14:15] Matoi
    You look stunning, Fire Sergeant Toyomu.
[14:24] Toyomu
    Thank you, Fire Sergeant Matoi.
[14:34] Toyomu
    This is a nice bar.
[14:37] Toyomu
    Do you come here often?
[14:39] Matoi
    No.
[14:40] Matoi
    But more importantly,
[14:43] Matoi
    you were brilliant.
[14:45] Matoi
    You and Nakamura Yuki.
[14:56] Toyomu
    You're the only one who's said anything nice.
[15:00] Toyomu
    Seeing as the squad's a secret.
[15:03] Toyomu
    Nakamura is amazing.
[15:05] Toyomu
    She's like God's gift to rescue.
[15:08] Toyomu
    She's able to offer 100% of
    herself up, on the spot.
[15:13] Toyomu
    Her heart is spotlessly white.
[15:16] Toyomu
    But I can't even imagine how much she
    had to endure to have become like this.
[15:23] (Flashback) Yuki
    It makes me want to scream.
[15:31] Toyomu
    We must protect her.
[15:41] Matoi
    So that's what it is.
[15:43] Toyomu
    Huh?
[15:45] Matoi
    My grandfather.
[15:46] (Flashback) Grandpa
    What, Toyomu-san?!
[15:50] Matoi
    Never mind.
[15:56] Toyomu
    But that man...
[16:01] Toyomu
    Amakasu Shiro.
[16:03] (Flashback) Amakasu
    Retreat.
[16:04] (Flashback) Amakasu
    Leave no trace.
[16:05] (Flashback) Amakasu
    Over.
[16:10] Toyomu
    He won't give Nakamura a
    single word of praise.
[16:14] Toyomu
    As if she were a tool.
[16:16] Toyomu
    I can't stand people like him.
[16:19] Toyomu
    I won't.
[16:28] Matoi
    I'd say you're compatible.
[16:30] Matoi
    You and Amakasu Shiro.
[16:32] Toyomu
    What are you talking about?
[16:35] Matoi
    I mean a good team was born...
[16:38] Matoi
    with you and Nakamura.
[16:41] Matoi
    One could even say that Amakasu Shiro
    unearthed your skills, Fire Sergeant Toyomu.
[16:48] Toyomu
    Enough of that. Did you find anything?
[16:52] Matoi
    I did some digging based on your lead.
[16:55] Matoi
    I even pulled some of my family's strings.
[16:58] Matoi
    Whatever it is, he's in a hurry.
[17:00] Matoi
    July, two years from now...
[17:02] Matoi
    Everything is moving toward that
    point as if it's all coordinated.
[17:08] Toyomu
    What's happening in July in two years?
[17:11] Matoi
    Who knows?
[17:12] Matoi
    But I suppose something's
    going to happen at that time.
[17:20] Matoi
    Hyper rescue.
[17:23] Matoi
    A rapid response team.
[17:26] Matoi
    On top of that,
[17:29] Matoi
    Amakasu Shiro felt it necessary
    to add something else.
[17:34] Matoi
    So he founded Fire Company M.
[17:47] Toyomu
    From the way he's scraping funds together,
[17:50] Toyomu
    to requesting support from private parties,
[17:52] Toyomu
    everything is just barely legal.
[17:55] Toyomu
    But the thing that hit me the most was this:
[17:59] Toyomu
    Between the training sessions,
[18:00] Toyomu
    instead of breaks, there are
    lectures on Japanese literature.
[18:05] Matoi
    Interesting.
[18:08] Toyomu
    Right now, it's Hojoki:
     An Account of My Hut.
[18:10] Toyomu
    An exploration of how the
     Japanese psyche deals with disaster.
[18:14] Toyomu
    I suspect that we'll be moving
    on to the proof of the
[18:17] Toyomu
    serotonin transporter's short allele.
[18:21] Toyomu
    The rescue methods and the number
    of people you can rescue changes.
[18:27] Toyomu
    Fire Company M, huh?
[18:30] Toyomu
    Something like a last hope?
[18:34] Matoi
    I've heard that Amakasu Shiro
    is a passionate person.
[18:39] Matoi
    But right now, he's operating
    with his emotions sealed up.
[18:44] Matoi
    Because there's something
    that he can't forget.
[18:53] Toyomu(m)
    "July, two years from now"...
[19:14] Toyomu
    Well, I guess if that's the case,
    I might also... be like that.
[19:24] Toyomu
    But anyway, why is it just the two of us?
[19:27] Toyomu
    Isn't it weird that it's just
     Nakamura and myself?!
[19:29] Toyomu
    Why are there still only two squad members?
[19:36] Matoi
    How can you be so sure that
     you're the only team members?
[19:44] Matoi
    There may be others being prepared.
[19:47] Matoi
    Somewhere in our organization.
[19:52] Matoi
    No...

    It may not be limited to only Tokyo.

[20:33] Toyomu
    You picked this bar because he frequents it.
[20:37] Matoi
    We're lucky.
[20:41] Amakasu
    Oh?
[20:44] Toyomu
    As always, you're quite funny,
     Fire Sergeant Matoi.
[20:49] Matoi
    Thank you.
[20:53] Toyomu
    That's why you're the only one
    I keep in touch with from our class.
