[00:42] ---
It seemed like it had been decided long before
[00:48] ---
It seemed like we knew long ago
[00:54] ---
As if we followed an invisible line
[01:00] ---
We were led to each other,
to an intersecting saison
[01:05] ---
Like how light and dark
are two sides of the same coin
[01:11] ---
I was captivated by mystification
[01:17] ---
When I turned around toward the voice
that whispered in my ear
[01:23] ---
The door had opened before I realized
[01:28] ---
Like joining a little chance with inevitability
[01:34] ---
Two histoires were set into motion, ah
[01:46] ---
Continuing on forever
[02:01] ---
Wait up, Victorique!
[02:07] ---
What do you find in a library?
[02:10] ---
Well... books, right?
[02:13] ---
That girl wanted to hide
a leaf in the forest.
[02:19] ---
That's why she came here.
[02:22] ---
When she picked up the book,
she realized you saw her.
[02:27] ---
She wanted to hide it.
[02:29] ---
The library was the best place to do that.
[02:31] ---
Do you want to know what that book is?
[02:34] ---
But how will you find it?
[02:40] ---
Have you heard of The Thirteenth Step
on the Stairway to Heaven?
[02:44] ---
They say if you linger on it,
you'll be dragged into the afterlife.
[02:48] ---
This floor contains religious texts,
ancient and modern, from all over the world.
[02:54] ---
Yes. This is the shelf of Heaven.
[02:57] ---
And...
[02:58] ---
Un, deux, trois,
[03:02] ---
quatre, cinq,
[03:04] ---
Victorique?
[03:05] ---
six,
[03:07] ---
sept, huit, neuf, dix, onze, douze, treize.
[03:18] ---
This is the 13th step
on the stairway to Heaven.
[03:21] ---
No one would linger here, would they?
[03:24] ---
The girl hid the book on this shelf.
[03:28] ---
That's what my wellspring of wisdom told me.
[03:35] ---
Episode 5: There is a Mysterious Ghost
in the Abandoned Warehouse
[03:41] ---
She solved another mystery so easily...
[03:44] ---
The Golden Fairy... The Gray Wolf?
[03:48] ---
The mysterious Victorique...
[03:51] ---
The Golden Fairy in the High Tower?
[03:56] ---
The Golden... Fairy?
[04:00] ---
Hey, that's too fast!
[04:07] ---
What was that for?!
[04:09] ---
Your head was in my way.
[04:11] ---
Aren't you going to let me read along?
[04:14] ---
No.
[04:18] ---
Figures...
[04:22] ---
It's a legend from a foreign land.
[04:25] ---
A tall tower stood in
the middle of the forest.
[04:28] ---
A golden fairy lived there alone.
[04:31] ---
She knew all the mysteries of the world,
and gave advice to the troubled.
[04:36] ---
But it was said that she wanted
your soul in exchange,
[04:40] ---
and she would devour it.
[04:43] ---
She looks a little like Victorique.
[04:47] ---
Does that mean "The Golden Fairy in the
Library" really does refer to Victorique?
[04:53] ---
What's wrong?
[04:56] ---
It's a postcard.
[04:58] ---
Avril Bradley.
[05:00] ---
It's a letter to Avril.
[05:02] ---
And it's from...
[05:04] ---
...Sir Bradley?
[05:06] ---
That's Avril's grandfather!
[05:09] ---
There's no postmark on the stamp.
[05:11] ---
Does that mean Avril never got it?
[05:18] ---
Well, then...
[05:22] ---
Victorique?
[05:24] ---
I'm sick of this.
[05:26] ---
You're done here, right?
[05:28] ---
Go away.
[05:30] ---
Sick of it?
[05:33] ---
Hey, Victorique!
[05:37] ---
What's going through Victorique's head?
[05:41] ---
And here I thought we were friends again.
[05:48] ---
Inspector? Is something wrong?
[05:51] ---
The case was solved, wasn't it?
[05:56] ---
It was.
[05:57] ---
I only just solved the case
of the mummified knight,
[06:01] ---
and now I've gotten word of
a professional thief in town.
[06:05] ---
I'm investigating that.
[06:08] ---
His name is...
Phantom Thief Quiaran.
[06:12] ---
He's a great thief that has
caused trouble all over Europe.
[06:15] ---
He disappeared seven or eight years ago.
[06:19] ---
Rumors said that he retired or died.
[06:23] ---
But recently, a successor appeared.
[06:26] ---
I've received word
that he's in this very village.
[06:29] ---
But, Inspector...
[06:32] ---
You're acting a little... different?
[06:35] ---
When you're with Victorique,
you're a lot more bombastic.
[06:39] ---
And with me, you're all...
[06:40] ---
"Oh, little squirrel!"
[06:43] ---
You know?
[06:45] ---
Wh-What are you talking about?
[06:48] ---
Listen, if you see anyone suspicious,
let me know at once.
[06:53] ---
Understand?
[06:54] ---
Yeah...
[06:58] ---
Seriously, what's wrong with that guy?
[07:30] ---
Ow...
[07:31] ---
You're awake?
[07:35] ---
Are you okay?
[07:37] ---
Yeah! I'm fine!
[07:39] ---
I see.
[07:41] ---
Kujo, I found you passed out
near the warehouse.
[07:44] ---
I found you, and the gardener
brought you here.
[07:47] ---
Really? Thanks...
[07:54] ---
The book's not here.
[07:56] ---
What's wrong?
[07:57] ---
Oh, nothing.
[08:00] ---
I'm glad.
[08:03] ---
They say a girl's ghost shows up in
that warehouse, so nobody goes near there.
[08:08] ---
Kujo, you weren't attacked
by a ghost, were you?
[08:12] ---
N-No way...
[08:15] ---
Did Avril attack me?
[08:18] ---
There really are so many
ghost stories at this school.
[08:21] ---
Yeah...
[08:22] ---
I don't think she'd do that.
[08:23] ---
But she's the one who hid the book.
[08:27] ---
But...
[08:28] ---
There's one in the library, too.
[08:29] ---
I believe it's called...
[08:31] ---
...the Golden Fairy.
[08:33] ---
They say the fairy is very smart,
and in exchange for solving any problem,
[08:39] ---
she would take a person's soul.
[08:42] ---
She sounds less like a fairy
and more like a devil.
[08:45] ---
You're wrong.
[08:46] ---
The person on the top floor of the library...
[08:48] ---
...is Victorique!
[08:51] ---
Victorique?
[08:54] ---
She skips classes and
reads books all by herself.
[08:57] ---
The one in the library isn't a Golden Fairy.
[09:01] ---
She's a little blonde girl.
[09:03] ---
And she doesn't ask for souls, but snacks.
[09:06] ---
But I was told no one had ever seen her.
[09:10] ---
Does she really exist?
[09:12] ---
She does.
[09:13] ---
Victorique exists.
[09:16] ---
I see.
[09:19] ---
The book...
[09:20] ---
The book...
[09:22] ---
The book...
[09:23] ---
It's gone.
[09:24] ---
Oh?
[09:25] ---
Mr. Kujo?
[09:27] ---
Ms. Cécile! Are you feeling better?
[09:29] ---
Yes.
[09:30] ---
Thanks for helping out yesterday.
[09:33] ---
Hey, did you hear?
[09:35] ---
That mummy was a graduate of this academy!
[09:40] ---
Isn't that scary?!
[09:42] ---
Oh, no!
[09:43] ---
Just thinking back on it, I...
[09:47] ---
Ms. Cécile!
[09:48] ---
Thank you...
[09:50] ---
Where did you find this book?
[09:52] ---
Huh?
[09:53] ---
Oh, someone threw it behind the flower bed.
[09:56] ---
They threw it away?
[09:58] ---
So it wasn't Avril?
[10:00] ---
Then who?
[10:11] ---
They say there's a ghost here.
[10:18] ---
There we go...
[10:20] ---
I-I took off my glasses!
[10:22] ---
If a ghost appears, I won't see it!
[10:24] ---
So I should be fine this time!
[10:26] ---
Well, it might be dangerous...
You really should wear them.
[10:33] ---
Help... me...
[10:37] ---
Help... me...
[10:41] ---
Help me...
[10:50] ---
There's no girl here.
[10:53] ---
The only things you'd find here
are ghosts or old men.
[10:57] ---
Maybe that's what the Golden Fairy is.
[10:59] ---
It's no place for a girl.
[11:04] ---
There it is!
[11:07] ---
Victorique!
[11:12] ---
It's gone?
[11:13] ---
But it was right there!
[11:15] ---
Avril?
[11:17] ---
What's wrong?
[11:19] ---
Nothing.
[11:21] ---
I just wanted to see the conservatory.
[11:25] ---
See you later!
[11:29] ---
Hey! Victorique!
[11:33] ---
Aren't you here?
[11:35] ---
Where could she have gone?
[11:38] ---
But I was told no one had ever seen her.
[11:42] ---
Does she really exist?
[11:44] ---
No way...
[11:45] ---
Victorique?
[11:47] ---
Victorique!
[11:51] ---
You're quite the noisy one.
[11:55] ---
Victorique!
[11:56] ---
You brought something to
relieve my boredom, right?
[12:03] ---
Hey, Victorique! Someone attacked me,
[12:06] ---
and Phantom Thief Quiaran has reappeared,
and the Ghost in the Warehouse...
[12:10] ---
Anyway, it's bad all over!
[12:13] ---
It smells sweet.
[12:14] ---
Huh? Of course it does. It's candy.
[12:18] ---
But it's shaped like dog poop!
[12:21] ---
It's karinto.
[12:28] ---
It's crunchy.
[12:30] ---
Never mind that, Victorique!
[12:32] ---
The Phantom Thief...
The Ghost in the Warehouse...
[12:35] ---
And the Golden Fairy in the Library?
[12:39] ---
I'm told that this is no place for a girl.
[12:42] ---
The only things you'd find here would be
old men, ghosts, and golden fairies.
[12:46] ---
Wh-What are you talking about?
[12:48] ---
That Avril girl.
[12:51] ---
She's Quiaran's successor.
[13:00] ---
A-Avril is Quiaran's successor?
[13:06] ---
You really are a loud man.
[13:08] ---
But... what are you talking about?
[13:10] ---
You leave me no choice.
[13:15] ---
I will use my wellspring of wisdom
[13:17] ---
to reconstruct the truth
from the fragments of chaos
[13:21] ---
and explain it to you.
[13:27] ---
The first Quiaran was Maxime.
[13:30] ---
What? Maxime was?
[13:33] ---
The first Quiaran disappeared
seven or eight years ago.
[13:37] ---
Maxime was killed eight years ago, too.
[13:39] ---
Is that really just a coincidence?
[13:42] ---
Maxime... no, Quiaran likely
came back to the school every spring
[13:47] ---
to hide the things that he had stolen.
[13:50] ---
That book was one of those things.
[13:53] ---
But before he could hide it,
he was locked in the mausoleum.
[13:58] ---
And...
[14:00] ---
...Avril was also looking for that book.
[14:02] ---
Avril was?
[14:05] ---
But why?
[14:09] ---
What's wrong?
[14:11] ---
Once more, it's over so quickly...
[14:13] ---
And I'm bored again.
[14:16] ---
It's not over yet!
[14:18] ---
What about the Ghost in the Warehouse?
[14:19] ---
Do I have to?
[14:21] ---
Victorique!
[14:22] ---
The ghost said something to you, didn't it?
[14:26] ---
Yeah.
[14:27] ---
It said, "Help me."
[14:29] ---
That's not good.
[14:31] ---
You should go save her at once.
[14:33] ---
The ghost?
[14:34] ---
The Ghost in the Warehouse...
[14:36] ---
....she is the true Avril Bradley.
[14:41] ---
Why did you bring me here?
[14:46] ---
Hey!
[14:47] ---
I'm pretty sure the ghost's voice
came from this direction.
[15:05] ---
Are you okay?
[15:06] ---
What the...?
[15:08] ---
Hey! Hey!
[15:14] ---
Thank goodness.
[15:18] ---
Help me!
[15:22] ---
You're safe now.
[15:24] ---
Are you Avril Bradley?
[15:26] ---
Yes.
[15:27] ---
That woman...
[15:29] ---
That woman took my place!
[15:33] ---
We were on a train together
from England to Saubure.
[15:37] ---
My grandfather's inheritance
was at this school.
[15:41] ---
She wanted to steal it!
[15:44] ---
Inspector.
[15:45] ---
Take care of Avril!
[15:47] ---
Wh-Where are you going? Hey!
[15:50] ---
It's not here...
[15:52] ---
It's not here!
[15:53] ---
Dammit!
[15:55] ---
Where is it?
[16:02] ---
Victorique!
[16:04] ---
Oh! Kujo!
[16:07] ---
Quiaran!
[16:13] ---
Secret's out, eh?
[16:15] ---
That's right.
[16:16] ---
I am the second Quiaran!
[16:20] ---
I was surprised to see the first one
reappear as a mummy,
[16:24] ---
but thanks to that,
I was able to find the book.
[16:28] ---
What did you do with it?
[16:31] ---
The one who hit me
and threw away the book...
[16:34] ---
It was me, of course.
[16:35] ---
But all you had was the book.
[16:39] ---
The Penny Black...
[16:42] ---
The postcard! Where is it?
[16:45] ---
Postcard?
[16:46] ---
Oh, didn't you realize,
my great little detective?
[16:50] ---
The Penny Black...
[16:52] ---
It's the world's first stamp.
[16:54] ---
That makes it quite a treasure by itself.
[16:56] ---
But there's one that's even more valuable
due to a printer's error.
[16:59] ---
And it was on that postcard?
[17:02] ---
That's right!
[17:04] ---
Victorique!
[17:06] ---
What did you do to her?
[17:08] ---
What, the girl you were talking about?
[17:11] ---
I came here looking for her,
assuming she had it,
[17:14] ---
but she's clearly not here.
[17:17] ---
I doubt there's ever been anyone here.
[17:21] ---
Are you sure you didn't really see a fairy?
[17:23] ---
The Golden Fairy in the Library...
[17:26] ---
Th-That can't be true.
[17:29] ---
Such a sad, lonely exchange student.
[17:32] ---
The Black Reaper.
[17:34] ---
A lonely child makes friends with a fairy,
and has his soul stolen.
[17:40] ---
There was a legend about
that where I come from, too.
[17:42] ---
You're wrong.
[17:45] ---
What you saw was a fairy.
[17:48] ---
There never was a girl called Victorique.
[17:52] ---
You're wrong!
[17:56] ---
Tell me!
[17:57] ---
Where did you hide the Penny Black?
[17:59] ---
And don't tell me your fairy friend has it!
[18:03] ---
Sh-She's not a fairy!
[18:06] ---
I don't have time to play along
with some student's stupid fantasies!
[18:12] ---
Go on! Give it to me!
[18:15] ---
She exists.
[18:16] ---
She really does exist!
[18:20] ---
Victorique is my...
[18:23] ---
Just give it to me!
[18:25] ---
She's my friend!
[18:27] ---
You don't have any friends!
[18:29] ---
If you don't have it, who does?!
[18:32] ---
I have it.
[18:37] ---
Victorique!
[18:38] ---
Get away from Kujo!
[18:56] ---
That boy is my...
[18:59] ---
...manservant.
[19:09] ---
Av... ril?
[19:16] ---
H-Hey...
[19:18] ---
Thanks for helping me!
[19:20] ---
No problem.
[19:21] ---
Are you okay?
[19:23] ---
Yeah, I'm fine now!
[19:25] ---
S-So I see.
[19:30] ---
What is it?
[19:31] ---
I was so afraid.
[19:33] ---
When you came to save me,
you looked like a raven-haired prince.
[19:40] ---
A prince? Mr. Kujo?
[19:43] ---
Oh, that's right.
[19:44] ---
Here.
[19:49] ---
"I will give you this stamp.
[19:51] ---
When you grow up, use this
to become a great adventurer.
[19:56] ---
To my beloved granddaughter, Avril.
[19:59] ---
Grandpa."
[20:02] ---
Grandpa...
[20:07] ---
Thank you.
[20:09] ---
Will you be my friend?
[20:11] ---
Sure, you bet!
[20:17] ---
By the way...
[20:18] ---
...do you like ghost stories?
[20:21] ---
Yeah! I love them!
[20:24] ---
How did you know the Ghost in
the Warehouse was the real Avril?
[20:29] ---
The second Quiaran took advantage
of the school's ghost stories.
[20:33] ---
That's also why she hid
the book in the library.
[20:37] ---
She used the story about the warehouse
the same way, to keep the real Avril hidden.
[20:43] ---
I see.
[20:44] ---
And I'll explain one more thing for you.
[20:48] ---
The Reaper Who Comes in Spring,
which has caused so much trouble for you
[20:53] ---
the "Reaper" is Maxime, the first Quiaran.
[20:59] ---
He would return to school each spring.
[21:01] ---
Perhaps each time he did,
he brought some misfortune.
[21:05] ---
Including the incident of Millie Marle,
who brought him a violent death...
[21:12] ---
The treasures that he hid here
will probably be found soon, as well.
[21:16] ---
You really are incredible.
[21:19] ---
And...
[21:20] ---
...you really do exist.
[21:22] ---
So rude...
[21:24] ---
But... you weren't here when I came running.
[21:28] ---
Where were you then, anyway?
[21:32] ---
I didn't know her.
[21:34] ---
What?
[21:36] ---
Someone I didn't know showed up, so I hid.
[21:38] ---
You hid? Where?
[21:46] ---
Is that where you were?
[21:48] ---
Do you always hide here when
people you don't know come by?
[21:54] ---
But...
[21:55] ---
...the first time I came here,
you weren't hidden.
[21:58] ---
Hey, how come?
[22:01] ---
Huh?
[22:02] ---
Are you okay?
[22:03] ---
You're all red.
[22:05] ---
No, I'm not.
[22:07] ---
Yes, you are!
[22:08] ---
Am not!
[22:10] ---
But...
[22:11] ---
I said I'm not red, so I'm not!
[22:18] ---
Fine, whatever.
[22:24] ---
The Golden Fairy...
[22:27] ---
She knew all the mysteries of the world,
and gave advice to the troubled.
[22:32] ---
But it was said that she
wanted your soul in exchange,
[22:35] ---
and she would devour it.
[22:39] ---
Is it true?
[22:44] ---
No...
[22:45] ---
She just wants someone to be with her.
[22:48] ---
She believes...
[22:51] ---
...that there's a soul just for her,
one that will stay forever.
[22:55] ---
And that someday... she will find it.
[23:02] ---
Loneliness fighting back again
[23:05] ---
Seems to be like it never ends
[23:09] ---
Give us hope through the love of
[23:11] ---
Peaceful shine on me
[23:24] ---
In the pounding rain that never ceases
[23:28] ---
I have forgotten how to smile,
and I suffer as the world passes me by
[23:39] ---
If in the midst of conflict and deceit
[23:46] ---
My heart withers
[23:53] ---
Like a flower floating in turbulent waves
[24:01] ---
Lead the way and overcome the storm
[24:08] ---
Like you're stepping firmly on barren earth
[24:15] ---
Go ahead, you can walk straight forward
[24:33] ---
Hey, Victorique,
why are your cheeks all puffed out?
[24:37] ---
Oh!
[24:38] ---
Are you eating macarons?
[24:41] ---
Yeah. They're delicious.
