[00:00] ---
    Absolutely not!
[00:02] ---
    Going to a restaurant when you
    already get meals from the institution,
[00:05] ---
    is what I call a luxury!
[00:10] ---
    I'm sure you're doing this for Martin,
[00:14] ---
    but why not just leave things to the police?
[00:20] ---
    I'll take care of things by myself this time.
[00:23] ---
    Huh?
[00:25] ---
    I'll help!
[00:31] ---
    I'll definitely return this favor.
[00:35] ---
    I was able to help you
    because of Sophie's help.
[00:39] ---
    If you're gonna return the favor,
    you should return it to her.
[01:02] ---
    Miss Melia Wild?
[01:05] ---
    I am Pawn, the one who contacted you.
[01:09] ---
    Thank you very much
    for taking an interest in us.
[01:14] ---
    I read the e-mail. Those are pretty good terms.
[01:18] ---
    Well, that's to be expected
    since you are trying to head hunt me.
[01:23] ---
    I hope we can go into a little more detail?
[01:28] ---
    About this El Dorado,
    that wants my skills so badly.
[01:32] ---
    Yes, of course.
[01:35] ---
    A certain problem has come up though.
[01:38] ---
    What is it?
[01:41] ---
    I've gotten a little hungry.
[01:43] ---
    Huh?
[01:52] ---
    Oh, that was bad of me.
[01:54] ---
    We'll have to find someone else now.
[01:59] ---
    I-Is there something that you need?!
[02:01] ---
    There is no reason
    for you to trouble yourself,
[02:03] ---
    we have enough help on this side!
[02:06] ---
    Master Knight.
[03:55] ---
    Our special menu for today!
[04:01] ---
    Missing person cases.
[04:03] ---
    These last two weeks, they've
    been happening one after another.
[04:08] ---
    They are all in their
    late teens or in their twenties.
[04:12] ---
    While Horrors have been
    sensed at various locations,
[04:15] ---
    the specifics are still unknown.
[04:17] ---
    One of the missing victims
    left a friend an e-mail saying,
[04:20] ---
    "I'm being scouted by El Dorado."
[04:23] ---
    Let me see!
[04:26] ---
    Sword!
[04:28] ---
    Don't follow me!
[04:30] ---
    I don't have time to deal
    with you this time. Go home!
[04:35] ---
    Give it up.
[04:38] ---
    Why?
[04:41] ---
    What is El Dorado?
    Why is Sword chasing after it?
[04:46] ---
    I'm sure he'll tell you once he is ready.
[04:59] ---
    Whoa.
[05:00] ---
    Hey, now. Are you trying to pass
    through here without greeting us?!
[05:06] ---
    Haven't seen your face before.
[05:08] ---
    Looks like we need to teach you
    about the rules around here.
[05:12] ---
    Hey.
[05:18] ---
    Yeah, that's right.
[05:20] ---
    He definitely said something like that.
[05:22] ---
    "If I go to El Dorado,
    I'll be able to live a better life."
[05:27] ---
    Isn't El Dorado the name of some
    ancient civilization or something?
[05:32] ---
    The city of gold.
    A legend from the Andes region.
[05:36] ---
    Does that have anything
    to do with him missing?
[05:40] ---
    That's what I'm looking
    into right now. Anything else?
[05:45] ---
    Not really.
[05:47] ---
    If I knew something like this would happen,
[05:49] ---
    I should have asked for more details.
[05:52] ---
    Even private detectives are getting involved.
    Did he do something bad?
[05:57] ---
    No, well. We're just following
    up on a client's request.
[06:02] ---
    I see. Well, the police
    are useless around here.
[06:09] ---
    The victims were all single
    or working away from home.
[06:12] ---
    They had few acquaintances,
    if any, in the city,
[06:14] ---
    making it difficult for others to notice
    when they suddenly go missing.
[06:17] ---
    College student. Programmer.
    Neuroscience researcher.
[06:21] ---
    Specialist in electronic engineering.
[06:23] ---
    An internet game vlogger.
[06:25] ---
    The only thing in common is that
    they are involved with the internet.
[06:33] ---
    It's more difficult to find people
    not involved with the net these days.
[06:39] ---
    That man was the only person
    who mentioned the word El Dorado.
[06:43] ---
    The others may not be involved
    or they didn't have anyone to tell.
[06:47] ---
    Or they were silenced.
[06:50] ---
    If you get too caught up with this keyword,
[06:52] ---
    you may lose the big picture.
[06:58] ---
    Don't worry. I'll do my job properly.
[07:09] ---
    Is El Dorado a place? Or could it
    be the name of an organization?
[07:18] ---
    Looking for a person?
[07:20] ---
    People move in and outta here fast.
[07:25] ---
    No one remembers things from three years ago.
[07:31] ---
    On top of that, a kid?
[07:32] ---
    If they're lucky, they're sent to a home.
[07:37] ---
    Most of them join a gang or are long dead.
[07:41] ---
    Oh, and you said it was a girl?
[07:44] ---
    Then she might be standing
    on a street corner somewhere.
[07:48] ---
    Oh, hey! I gave you information
    so give me something! Hey!
[07:56] ---
    A new experience in virtual reality!
[07:59] ---
    Easy retina scan access!
[08:02] ---
    ELDO NET is currently open for beta testing!
[08:05] ---
    Oh, I noticed the guy hadn't been
    posting lately. He went missing?
[08:11] ---
    Must've ran out of ideas.
[08:12] ---
    Huh? Seriously? Isn't this
    getting to be a real problem?
[08:16] ---
    I'm pretty much also
    struggling with school credits.
[08:18] ---
    Wish I could just disconnect from it. LOL
[08:19] ---
    Has there been any talk
    about it in direct messaging?
[08:23] ---
    100% sure he's pulling a prank for the views!
[08:26] ---
    Speaking of disappearances.
    Anyone know where Team Omega went?
[08:31] ---
    Team Omega?
[08:33] ---
    Remember the online game, Dark Strike?
[08:36] ---
    They were always at the top of the rankings,
[08:38] ---
    but they suddenly disappeared.
[08:40] ---
    Bet they got tired of it and quit.
[08:42] ---
    No. No. No. They're all junkies over there.
[08:47] ---
    Good riddance. Their chat
    messages were always annoying.
[08:50] ---
    All of it were inside jokes
    no one else understood.
[08:54] ---
    Stuff like, "Get on the El Dorado bus!"
[08:57] ---
    El Dorado bus?
[08:59] ---
    They were all hyped up
    about it before disappearing.
[09:02] ---
    "If you go to El Dorado,
    you'll find happiness." Or something.
[09:06] ---
    Isn't that dangerous? A cult?
[09:08] ---
    Maybe so.
[09:24] ---
    Where are you going, Sophie?
[09:25] ---
    Oh, uh! For a walk!
[09:29] ---
    Then why are you trying
    to sneak out the back?
[09:37] ---
    Listen, Sophie.
[09:41] ---
    It's too late, after the fact.
[09:44] ---
    You've just been lucky until now.
    Do you understand?
[09:48] ---
    But, Sister. I'm not...
[09:51] ---
    I understand how you feel.
[09:53] ---
    But you're still just a child.
[09:58] ---
    I want to protect you until
    you become an adult.
[10:04] ---
    Yes...
[10:11] ---
    Please wait a moment.
[10:21] ---
    Thank you for waiting.
[10:23] ---
    I'm sorry for visiting so suddenly.
[10:26] ---
    I am tour coordinator
    for educational institutions.
[10:32] ---
    An education agent, Pawn.
[11:03] ---
    Don't move! What are you doing here?!
[11:26] ---
    "Get on the El Dorado bus"...?
[11:28] ---
    Yeah. About ten days ago,
    that seven-member team
[11:33] ---
    suddenly stopped logging in.
[11:36] ---
    That's the shop the team
    used to meet up offline.
[11:40] ---
    Their leader works part-time there.
[11:43] ---
    So when they meet, it's usually that shop.
[11:48] ---
    That area is where
    Mr. Luke is currently looking.
[11:54] ---
    I'll contact him!
[11:58] ---
    I don't know if it'll be much help.
[12:02] ---
    No, it is. Thanks.
[12:06] ---
    Sorry about earlier.
[12:09] ---
    I know that you're not a
    stranger to El Dorado yourself.
[12:14] ---
    Once I find something out,
    I'll definitely tell you.
[12:18] ---
    Thanks!
[12:19] ---
    But!
[12:20] ---
    Go home for today. Leave the rest to us.
[12:26] ---
    Yeah!
[12:34] ---
    That shop, huh?
[13:01] ---
    There it is.
[13:36] ---
    They did a pretty good job hiding it...
[13:39] ---
    It's a barrier made by a Horror.
[13:54] ---
    Still breathing.
[13:55] ---
    Looks like they're all just unconscious.
[13:59] ---
    It's like a storage unit.
[14:01] ---
    Could it be like the last one,
[14:03] ---
    storing them and eating them up one by one?
[14:06] ---
    Maybe they wanted to
    put them "on the bus" instead.
[14:10] ---
    They're sending them out of the city?
[14:13] ---
    Could there be a nest
    of Horrors somewhere?
[14:16] ---
    I'll call for back-up.
[14:17] ---
    We can't handle of all
    these hostages ourselves.
[14:21] ---
    It's me. We found the missing people.
[14:26] ---
    That's right. We don't have enough people.
[14:29] ---
    Send a request for help
    to Fei Long and the others.
[14:34] ---
    The number of victims...
[14:38] ---
    The targets for the Horror?
[14:40] ---
    All the areas you've been
    walking around in are there.
[14:46] ---
    This place...
[14:48] ---
    Understood. We'll wait at the site.
[14:52] ---
    Hey!
[14:54] ---
    Sophie's home is marked on the Horror's map!
[15:02] ---
    This is an emergency! Sword has--
[15:03] ---
    Sorry. We have an
    emergency order here ourselves.
[15:06] ---
    We just got word.
[15:10] ---
    It looks like something
    crazy is wandering around.
[15:14] ---
    Please leave the victims to Mr. Fei Long.
[15:17] ---
    Mr. Luke, please go and support Mr. Sword.
[15:19] ---
    Understood.
[15:22] ---
    What the hell is going on?
[15:36] ---
    Everyone! I have some
    wonderful news for you today.
[15:40] ---
    Next month, everyone
    will be going camping!
[15:44] ---
    What?!
[15:48] ---
    Camping? Do we have that kind of money?
[15:52] ---
    Children shouldn't worry about such things.
[15:55] ---
    A representative came
    today and informed us
[15:58] ---
    about an affordable tour specially
    made for institutions like us.
[16:02] ---
    Shouldn't we take this
    chance to go out together?
[16:05] ---
    Right!
[16:07] ---
    Hey! Hey! Where are we going camping?
[16:09] ---
    I heard it was a wonderful place!
[16:12] ---
    The facility is new, so it's not well-known.
[16:14] ---
    But I've been told everyone
    who went found happiness there!
[16:18] ---
    "If you go to El Dorado,
    you'll find happiness." Or something.
[16:24] ---
    Sister, that affordable tour...
[16:28] ---
    Please wait a moment.
[16:34] ---
    Yes!
[16:36] ---
    Who is here at a time like this?
[16:40] ---
    You are...
[16:41] ---
    I am sorry for bothering you so late.
[16:44] ---
    The preparations for the tour is complete,
[16:47] ---
    so we've come to pick you up.
[16:49] ---
    What?
[16:50] ---
    Um, it's true I accepted
    your offer, but this is sudden.
[16:57] ---
    Wasn't it supposed to
    be two weeks from now?
[16:59] ---
    They often say, "Better now than later."
[17:01] ---
    You are all very lucky.
[17:04] ---
    Now, please grasp for the happiness.
[17:07] ---
    At the city of miracles, El Dorado!
[17:12] ---
    But we are not prepared
    to suddenly leave like this.
[17:16] ---
    Your circumstances do not matter.
[17:19] ---
    Things have changed,
    we must leave the city immediately.
[17:26] ---
    You are all third-rate products.
[17:28] ---
    You cannot support El Dorado,
    but you will be useful as food.
[17:34] ---
    I cannot appear before
    the king empty-handed!
[17:40] ---
    Sister!
[17:41] ---
    Sophie! Take everyone to Mr. Brooks!
[17:45] ---
    Tell them to call the police!
[17:47] ---
    No! He might be a Horror!
[17:50] ---
    --You have to come with us, Sister!
    --Hurry!
[17:59] ---
    I won't let you escape!
[18:10] ---
    I won't let you lay a finger on my children!
[18:25] ---
    Teacher! Mr. Brooks!
[18:28] ---
    Teacher! Teacher!
[18:37] ---
    What's going on, at a time like this?!
[18:39] ---
    A crazy person is at the home!
[18:42] ---
    Please call the police! Please!
[18:45] ---
    --Sophie!
    --Sophie!
[19:02] ---
    Calm down! Calm down!
[19:08] ---
    Hi, this is the diner!
[19:09] ---
    Please call Sword!
[19:11] ---
    Hurry!
[19:54] ---
    You can't!
[20:14] ---
    Don't get in my way.
[20:41] ---
    Wait. What do you plan to do to Sophie...?
[21:12] ---
    Run... away...
[21:33] ---
    Sophia Hennes. I have been looking for you.
[21:37] ---
    My master, the King of
    El Dorado, summons you.
[21:52] ---
    You!
[21:57] ---
    Garo, huh?
[22:10] ---
    You finally appeared before me.
[22:18] ---
    Dark Knight!
