**[00:16] Nao**
Target acquired.
**[00:17] Nao**
Initiating pursuit!
**[00:18] Mik**
Initiating!
**[00:19] Him**
Uh, initiating!
**[00:25] Him**
* It's a rare sunny Saturday*
* during the rainy season.*
**[00:27] Him**
* Practice exams are over, so I thought*
* we were getting together to have fun,*
**[00:32] Him**
* but for some reason,*
* we're being detectives now.*
***SIGN*** The Teacher's Secret
**[02:14] Him**
*The person we're tailing is Koizumi-sensei.*
**[02:17] Him**
*This all started when...*
**[02:19] (Flashback) Him**
Kukuri-chan!
**[02:21] (Flashback) Mik**
Sorry! Were you waiting long?
**[02:24] (Flashback) Him**
Not at all.
**[02:26] (Flashback) Koi**
Are you serious?
**[02:28] (Flashback) Koi**
Come on, I was really
looking forward to this!
**[02:32] (Flashback) Koi**
Why not?
**[02:33] (Flashback) Nao**
It's our teacher.
**[02:34] (Flashback) Him**
She seems different than normal.
**[02:36] (Flashback) Mik**
She must be talking to her boyfriend.
**[02:38] (Flashback) Nao**
It's possible!
**[02:39] (Flashback) Him**
Nao-chan, didn't you say you overheard
her on the phone a while ago,
**[02:42] (Flashback) Him**
saying something like, "I hope
it'll be a wonderful evening!"
**[02:46] (Flashback) Nao**
Yeah, it was after school.
**[02:48] (Flashback) Nao**
She looked like she was in another world.
**[02:52] (Flashback) Koi**
Yeah, I guess this might be the end.
**[02:55] (Flashback) Koi**
It's fine. I'll just go alone.
**[03:02] Hime**
*And that's where we are now.*
**[03:04] Mik**
That was really unexpected, though.
**[03:06] Mik**
When you said we should follow her.
**[03:09] Hime**
Yeah, huh?
**[03:10] nao**
When we were deciding where to go,
**[03:12] nao**
I almost suggested the club room.
**[03:15] Mik**
That would be silly!
**[03:17] Nao**
But with how Hime-chan has been
these days, it kind of makes sense.
**[03:19] Mik**
I know what you mean!
**[03:20] Mik**
Now that you say it, I totally see it.
**[03:22] Him**
I've been like what, exactly?
**[03:24] Mik**
I mean, you've been so depressed ever since
that thing with the ochazuke bowl happened.
**[03:29] Nao**
That! That's exactly what
I was saying earlier!
**[03:31] Mik**
Really?
**[03:32] Him**
Okay, enough of that!
**[03:34] Mik**
Hey, look! Look!
**[03:38] Mik**
That's where the giant of light sleeps!
**[03:42] Him**
The giant of light?
**[03:43] Nao**
If there's ever an emergency, I'm certain
he'll rise and save the day for sure!
**[03:50] Nao**
Just kidding.
**[03:51] Hime**
You're so crazy.
***SIGN*** Next stop: Hime
**[03:57] Ann**
*The next stop is Hime.*
**[04:00] Ann**
*Passengers alighting at Hime,*
**[04:02] Ann**
* should move to the first door*
* at the front of the train.*
**[04:04] MIk**
The next stop is Hime.
**[04:06] Nao**
Hime...
**[04:07] Him**
What's up with you two?
**[04:09] Him**
Why do you have to use the first door
for getting off at the next stop?
**[04:12] nao**
Because it's an unmanned station.
**[04:14] nao**
There's only a simple automatic ticket gate,
**[04:16] nao**
so you have to give your ticket
to the driver in the train.
**[04:19] nao**
One of the pleasures
of conductorless trains.
**[04:20] hime**
I've never seen anything like this before.
**[04:22] nao**
There's quite a few, like the
Nagarawara Railway and the Ohmi Railway.
**[04:26] him**
Huh.
**[04:32] Nao**
Target is moving!
**[04:33] Him**
We're getting off, Kukuri-chan!
**[04:34] Mik**
Wait, wait! My shoe slipped off!
**[04:37] Him**
This station is so small and cute!
**[04:42] Mik**
Look, look!
**[04:54] Nao**
Kurikuri-chan, you're so loud.
**[04:56] Mik**
Sorry.
**[04:57] Him**
But I got this for 100 yen,
so you're forgiven.
**[05:07] Mik**
Look at this huge crossroad!
***SIGN*** Shinmei Shrine

**[05:22] Him**
Knock it off, Kukuri-chan.
**[05:37] Mik**
I'm really enjoying the nature here!
**[05:39] Him**
Yeah, it feels good.
**[05:41] Nao**
We're like, hiking detectives.
**[05:43] Him**
What now?
***SIGN*** Miyama
Forest
***SIGN*** Miyama Forest
**[05:54] Him**
What is this place?
**[05:56] Him**
It says Shinzan Forest.
**[05:57] Nao**
I think it's Miyama Forest...
**[06:00] Mik**
Let's go! It looks cool and refreshing!
**[06:11] Him**
I would've never expected this wide open
space in the middle of the forest.
**[06:15] Him**
It's our teacher!
**[06:16] Mik**
Maybe this is where she was supposed
to meet her boyfriend for a date.
**[06:20] Nao**
That's a...
**[06:21] Hime**
Wow, you're prepared.
**[06:23] Nao**
Target appears to be consuming a rice ball.
**[06:26] Mik**
I want one too!
**[06:28] Him**
We should have bought something
along the way, too.
**[06:38] Him**
I wonder how far she plans on going.
**[06:40] Nao**
No clue, but those are mountains ahead.
**[06:43] Mik**
We made it this far, let's
keep up the spirit. March on!
**[06:47] Nao**
Your spirit looks dead.
**[06:51] Mik**
Naruse-san, wait up.
**[06:53] Mik**
My feet hurt!
**[06:54] Nao**
You got this!
**[06:56] Nao**
We'll lose sight of her!
**[06:57] Him**
Come on, Kukuri-chan! Give me your hand!
**[07:14] Nao**
It looks like this is the only road.
**[07:16] Nao**
Want to take a break?
**[07:17] Him**
That sounds good.
**[07:20] MIk**
That looks like the top!
**[07:22] MIk**
We're almost there!
**[07:24] Him**
Wait, Kukuri-chan!
***SIGN*** Prevent fires
**[07:29] Mik**
The road just keeps on going.
***SIGN*** Stay Safe
Drive Slowly
**[07:33] Mik**
Running was a bad idea.
**[07:39] Nao**
My juice is lukewarm.
**[07:41] Mik**
The next vending machine I see,
I'm definitely buying some.
**[07:45] Nao**
I can't believe we crossed a mountain...
**[07:47] Mik**
And not a vending machine in sight.
**[07:50] Him**
Our teacher has too much energy.
**[07:56] Nao**
Huh? She's gone!
**[08:02] Hime**
A shrine?
**[08:05] Hime**
You think she went up there to pray?
**[08:09] Nao**
I don't have the willpower to go up.
**[08:11] MIk**
Same here.
**[08:15] mik**
You know, I just thought of this, but...
**[08:19] mik**
We still have to walk back, right?
**[08:25] Nao**
Old Sri Lanka.
**[08:27] Him**
What now?
**[08:28] Nao**
We gotta Ceylon.
**[08:30] mik**
Please, no!
**[08:34] Him**
Sorry. This is my fault for running away.
**[08:38] Him**
Nao-chan, when you were about to
suggest going to the club room,
**[08:41] Him**
I panicked and blurted out that
we should follow our teacher.
**[08:47] Him**
You two said that I was totally
devoted to our club...
**[08:53] Him**
But no matter how much I tried,
things weren't working how I wanted.
**[08:59] Him**
Between Touko-senpai who seemingly
easily manages to do difficult things
**[09:03] Him**
and Kukuri-chan, you who
seems to have so much fun,
**[09:06] Him**
I just got more flustered.
**[09:09] Him**
Right when I was starting to
dread the club activities...
**[09:13] (Flashback) Tou**
Next week, I have my school trip,
**[09:15] (Flashback) Tou**
and you first-years will
have your first mock exams.
**[09:18] (Flashback) Tou**
So let's take a break from club activities
until those are over.
**[09:23] (Flashback) Mik**
Oh, man! That's so sad! Right, Hime-chan?
**[09:26] (Flashback) Him**
Y-Yeah, you're right.
***SIGN*** Tokishirou
**[09:29] Him**
That's what I said, but...
**[09:31] (Flashback) Him**
I'm home!
**[09:32] (Flashback) Him**
Dad, starting tomorrow, I can help you here!
**[09:34] (Flashback) Dad**
Really? That's great news.
**[09:36] (Flashback) Old**
How come you're suddenly all smiles?
**[09:39] (Flashback) Him**
Nothing's going on.
**[09:42] (Flashback) Him**
Now I can focus on studying for a while!
**[09:48] Him**
It's not like I really wanted to study.
**[09:51] Him**
But for some reason, I felt
so relieved and happy.
**[09:54] Him**
And I started pottery because I liked it.
**[09:58] Him**
I kind of ran away today, too.
**[10:01] Mik**
So that's what's going on.
**[10:03] Him**
Yeah.
**[10:04] Nao**
Hime-chan...
**[10:07] Both**
You're way too serious!
**[10:10] Mik**
Gosh, you're so cute, Hime-chan!
**[10:14] nao**
Yes, so pure.
**[10:15] Him**
Um, what?
**[10:17] Nao**
That happens all the time.
**[10:19] Nao**
Don't worry about it.
**[10:20] Mik**
There, there!
**[10:22] Him**
You think so?
**[10:23] Koi**
Of course.
**[10:25] Nao**
S-Sensei?
**[10:27] Koi**
Getting into such an intense
conversation here means
**[10:30] Koi**
you're failures as detectives
who are tailing someone.
**[10:34] Koi**
Wait, you heard that phone conversation?
**[10:36] Koi**
That's awkward.
**[10:38] Him**
We're sorry!
**[10:39] Him**
We shouldn't have eavesdropped on your
private call with your boyfriend.
**[10:42] Koi**
Huh?
**[10:43] Mik**
Isn't it nice, though?
**[10:45] Mik**
Now you're not on a sad, lonely trip
by yourself after you broke up.
**[10:48] Koi**
Hold on. What are you cooking up in there?
**[10:52] Nao**
But on the phone, you said
"this might be the end."
**[11:00] Koi**
You're so silly!
**[11:02] Koi**
You'll see what I meant soon enough.
**[11:06] koi**
The person who ditched
me was a girl friend.
**[11:08] koi**
Someone I went to school
with back in junior high.
**[11:10] Mik**
This town is so cute!
**[11:12] Koi**
Kukuri-san, are you even listening?
**[11:14] Mik**
Yes ma'am.
**[11:16] Koi**
"This might be the end" was about
the season's almost being over.
**[11:20] Koi**
That's why I came alone.
**[11:37] Him**
Fireflies!
**[11:38] Nao**
That's right! The fireflies of Kitaogi!
**[11:41] Mik**
I've heard of them, but this is
my first time seeing them!
**[11:57] Him**
Wow!
**[11:58] Him**
This is so amazing!
**[11:59] Him**
I've never seen anything like it!
**[12:02] Koi**
You're so lucky.
**[12:04] Koi**
It's muggy, but there's no wind,
**[12:06] Koi**
meaning the conditions are perfect.
**[12:09] Him**
Wait, there's a different color...
**[12:12] Koi**
The green ones are Genji fireflies.
**[12:14] Koi**
The yellow ones are Heike fireflies.
**[12:16] Koi**
They live in different environments,
**[12:19] Koi**
so it's rare to see the
two species together.
**[12:21] Koi**
But if you're lucky, you can
see them together here.
**[12:24] Him**
We must be super lucky then.
**[12:28] Koi**
That's right.
**[12:29] Koi**
If you're always walking
without seeing what's ahead,
**[12:32] Koi**
it makes sense that you feel
like giving up sometimes.
**[12:35] Koi**
But if you get up and keep walking,
**[12:37] Koi**
you might get to see something
like this at the end.
**[12:47] Koi**
That's why you should just walk
and rest however you like.
**[12:57] Him**
* It feels like the rainy season*
* in my heart is over.*
**[13:02] Him**
* I'm sure I will never*
* forget what I saw today.*
