    "Have Guns"
[00:03] ---
    "Have Guns"
    Heard you got your director position back.
[00:04] ---
    Heard you got your director position back.
[00:08] ---
    To be precise, I'm still considered
    a substitute director.
[00:14] ---
    You have the data, don't you?
[00:17] ---
    Sorry.
[00:19] ---
    Like I told that guy Avi, I've already
    sold off that so-called data.
[00:26] ---
    Don't be mistaken, Juzo. I'm not here
    to have some tea with you.
[00:32] ---
    You broke the Extend Law again.
[00:36] ---
    You not only destroyed a sub-brain that
    was a lead to a highly wanted criminal.
[00:43] ---
    You assisted his escape.
[00:48] ---
    I'm sure you understand,
    even with this sooty head of yours.
[00:52] ---
    Even if I send you to Wunder Bender
    this very instant, you can't complain.
[00:58] ---
    True, I'm not in the best of situations.
[01:02] ---
    I got no attachments to the outside...
[01:08] ---
    ...but I can't really let myself be put away
    until I deal with a certain problem.
[01:13] ---
    Oh, wonderful. That simplifies matters.
[01:18] ---
    But even if I had that data
    you're talking about,
[01:22] ---
    the problem I'm dealing with
    right now won't let me give it up.
[01:33] ---
    This is why I hate people who have things
    they value more than themselves.
[01:45] ---
    Tetsuro and Chris!
[01:47] ---
    Did you save them from Spitzbergen?!
[01:51] ---
    I wish I could say that...
[01:56] ---
    ...but you're wrong.
[01:59] ---
    It seems they were released.
[02:02] ---
    Without a single scratch on them.
[02:04] ---
    What do you mean by that?
[02:06] ---
    We currently have them in custody,
[02:09] ---
    and we're checking to see
    if any kind of deal was made.
[02:14] ---
    It'll take two or three days.
[02:18] ---
    Either way, I'll guarantee their safety.
[02:26] ---
    That means... you no longer have
    a need to keep that data, right?
[04:03] ---
    "Noble Rot"
[04:05] ---
    "Noble Rot"
    My name is Podpie.
[04:08] ---
    I'm one of the many Extendeds
    living in this city.
[04:12] ---
    There's no trail I can't track.
[04:16] ---
    I use these eyes of mine to maintain the
    peace by solving cases from the shadows.
[04:27] ---
    Even so...
[04:31] ---
    No matter how hard I try, there is a limit
    to what can be done by the books.
[04:37] ---
    In order to further sharpen my skills,
[04:43] ---
    I walk the streets every night.
[04:46] ---
    All for the sake of my true imperative.
[04:57] ---
    That's...!
[04:59] ---
    The one visiting Juzo Inui has been
    confirmed as the director of EMS.
[05:04] ---
    It looks like the data
    has already been destroyed.
[05:08] ---
    It proved that the government had hidden
    the dangers of extension technology!
[05:14] ---
    We might still make it.
    Give the order to attack.
[05:18] ---
    We won't make a mistake this time.
[05:23] ---
    What is it? An enemy attack?!
[05:26] ---
    No, I think there's a drunkard
    causing problems...
[05:29] ---
    I feel a disgusting presence.
[05:31] ---
    It may be an ambush set by EMS.
[05:34] ---
    It can't be helped if we've
    been discovered! Let's kill them!
[05:37] ---
    Don't engage in pointless battles!
[05:39] ---
    Fall back. We'll report to the elder.
[05:43] ---
    Understood.
[05:58] ---
    Goodness. Please don't laugh so much.
[06:01] ---
    B-But the way you described Juzo
    made him seem so cool.
[06:07] ---
    That's not the same guy.
[06:08] ---
    But don't you think he's an amazing person?
[06:12] ---
    He ignored the dangers and
    saved me when I was kidnapped.
[06:16] ---
    Even though I said such terrible things...
[06:20] ---
    Oh, I don't think he worries
    about that kind of thing.
[06:23] ---
    That would be nice, but...
[06:25] ---
    The coat I borrowed from Mr. Juzo
    got so tattered, right?
[06:32] ---
    Yeah.
[06:33] ---
    I was wondering if I could fix it myself.
[06:37] ---
    I read in a magazine that men
    value handmade presents more.
[06:43] ---
    Really?
[06:45] ---
    Should I send a new one, after all?
[06:49] ---
    But I feel like that won't
    properly convey my feelings...
[06:56] ---
    I see. So that's how it is.
[06:59] ---
    O-Of appreciation!
    My feelings of appreciation!
[07:02] ---
    I mean, Juzo is super dense.
[07:05] ---
    You have to say things strongly
    and clearly for him to understand!
[07:14] ---
    You're right.
[07:16] ---
    I'm now free to go wherever I please.
[07:21] ---
    I will try my best.
[07:25] ---
    That's the spirit.
[07:39] ---
    Juzo should be in his office right now.
[07:42] ---
    Y-Yes.
[07:57] ---
    R-Rosa?!
[07:58] ---
    I never thought you were
    that kind of person, Mr. Juzo!
[08:02] ---
    N-No. What? Huh?!
[08:05] ---
    Even if mankind has evolved with extension
    technology, man himself does not change.
[08:31] ---
    May there be mercy upon his manhood.
[08:41] ---
    It looks like she got the wrong idea.
[08:43] ---
    You...
[08:44] ---
    Juzo, you're the one in the wrong here.
[08:49] ---
    Hurry up and hand over the data.
[09:06] ---
    So that was McMahon's daughter...
[09:28] ---
    The time has come.
[09:33] ---
    Either way, I'm glad
    the two of them are safe.
[09:38] ---
    Well, if Christina didn't come back
    for a while, I could wait on the rent.
[09:44] ---
    Dad!
[09:46] ---
    After all that commotion, I haven't
    had any customers come in.
[09:50] ---
    When someone finally does...
    it's a head like yours.
[09:55] ---
    At this rate, my cutting skills
    are going to drop.
[10:00] ---
    B-B-B-But I'm thankful that everyone is safe.
[10:05] ---
    I heard that you were going to raid
    a terrorist organization, Mr. Juzo.
[10:09] ---
    I was so w-worried...
[10:12] ---
    There's no need to worry
    about a guy like that.
[10:15] ---
    He even came back with newly sprouted arms!
[10:18] ---
    Don't talk about it
    like I'm some kind of lizard.
[10:22] ---
    Those arms of yours. Are they Mary's work?
[10:26] ---
    No, this is--
[10:27] ---
    That girl is popular.
[10:30] ---
    Her skills have improved once again.
[10:33] ---
    She's so young, but so talented.
[10:35] ---
    I should have her do my
    maintenance work sometime.
[10:38] ---
    While I'm at it, maybe I should upgrade
    to something that looks more trendy.
[10:44] ---
    That's a good idea.
[10:46] ---
    You should also have her set it
    so you talk a little less.
[10:51] ---
    Welcome!
[10:54] ---
    Uh, did you want to get a cut?
[10:57] ---
    D-Dad!
[10:59] ---
    If so, I'm helping another customer
    right now, so it'll be a bit of a wait.
[11:05] ---
    Just a shampoo.
[11:07] ---
    Oh! I-I can do that!
[11:10] ---
    Will that be all right?
[11:12] ---
    Please.
[11:13] ---
    I'll h-hang up your coat for you.
[11:18] ---
    P-Please sit down over here.
[11:25] ---
    After investigating day
    and night, I've finally...
[11:30] ---
    Excuse my reach.
[11:33] ---
    My efforts have borne fruit!
[11:40] ---
    Wh-What's going on?!
[11:42] ---
    U-U-Um, did I do something wrong?
[11:48] ---
    No. There's no problem.
[11:52] ---
    I-I'm going to lower the seat now.
[11:54] ---
    All right, turn back over this way.
[11:57] ---
    I'm going to put a towel over you now.
[12:01] ---
    Is th-th-there any water down your temples?
[12:06] ---
    There's no problem.
[12:09] ---
    Are you on your way home from work today?
[12:14] ---
    What kind of work do you do?
[12:21] ---
    The world...
[12:23] ---
    I make the dreams of all men
    in this world come true.
[12:26] ---
    That is the duty I bear.
[12:32] ---
    D-Duty?!
[12:33] ---
    Now that makes me curious, old man.
[12:36] ---
    If you are truly a man, a time will come
    when I may help you as well.
[12:42] ---
    A man of few words, huh?
[12:45] ---
    I don't hate those kinds of people.
[13:01] ---
    Inhuman previous guest
    who I do not know the name of,
[13:05] ---
    allow me to be thankful of your work.
[13:11] ---
    I-It seems your job must be an admirable one.
[13:18] ---
    I was able to gain this moment thanks to you!
[13:22] ---
    The perfect chance for me to fulfill my duties!
[13:38] ---
    Oh, no! What a terrible nosebleed!
[13:41] ---
    There's no problem. Continue.
[13:43] ---
    B-B-But...
[13:44] ---
    Excuse me.
[13:46] ---
    I'd like to get my hair washed.
    Do you have time?
[13:49] ---
    I've been holding off
    because of everything going on,
[13:51] ---
    but it's been a week and
    I can't stand this itchiness!
[13:54] ---
    Oh! Juzo is here, too.
[13:57] ---
    Rosa was here just a bit ago. Did you see her?
[14:01] ---
    Wait... why is there so much blood?!
[14:05] ---
    Th-That's...
[14:06] ---
    No way. Juzo...
[14:08] ---
    It wasn't me!
[14:18] ---
    Those eyes...
[14:20] ---
    I've seen them somewhere.
[14:24] ---
    Don't put such pathetic things
    in front of my face!
[14:27] ---
    And you smell so bad! Have some shame!
[14:31] ---
    Wh-What are you...?
[14:37] ---
    Y-Y-You!
[14:57] ---
    Dad! Get a towel! Hurry!
[15:03] ---
    What's going on? What did he do?
[15:07] ---
    I am a person from the Security Bureau!
    I have connections with the EMS as well!
[15:12] ---
    --If you harm me, you will not be--
[15:14] ---
    --Shut up!
    --If you harm me, you will not be--
[15:18] ---
    I knew it!
[15:21] ---
    Th-That's...
[15:23] ---
    What is that? Let me see.
[15:25] ---
    Don't look!
[15:27] ---
    This person has an image scanning device
    that uses the MALS system.
[15:35] ---
    Multiple Alternative Light Sources.
[15:39] ---
    It's a system that uses ultraviolet and
    infrared light to find hidden evidence.
[15:46] ---
    It was developed for the Security Bureau
    and the government research facilities.
[15:52] ---
    That technology was installed
    in his eyes as an extension.
[15:57] ---
    I don't really get it.
    So, just what did this guy do?
[16:01] ---
    To put it simply, he has the power
    to see hidden things.
[16:06] ---
    It's x-ray vision!
[16:07] ---
    X-ray vision?!
[16:10] ---
    Of course, this technology
    isn't available to the public.
[16:14] ---
    So, it's an illegal extension.
[16:16] ---
    Even considering the risks,
    it's a fairly affordable extension.
[16:20] ---
    That's why illegal extensions
    like this are so popular.
[16:25] ---
    Then, this guy...
[16:27] ---
    He's probably lying about being
    part of the Security Bureau.
[16:30] ---
    I'm not lying!
[16:32] ---
    I really was a data analyst
    from the Security Bureau.
[16:37] ---
    However, after getting these eyes,
[16:40] ---
    my desire to use them for personal
    gain had become uncontrollable!
[16:46] ---
    That was the only reason I was fired!
[16:57] ---
    Then, the duty you were talking about earlier...
[17:02] ---
    I must show the beautiful bodies that have
    caught my eye to all the men in the world.
[17:10] ---
    That! That is the true duty of John Podpie!
[17:15] ---
    Why are you saying that so proudly?!
[17:18] ---
    I was able to extract all the data.
[17:20] ---
    Let's just hand this guy over to the EMS!
[17:23] ---
    What did you say?!
[17:24] ---
    What a foolish thing to do!
    Your heart must be as barren as your chest!
[17:30] ---
    Quit saying barren over and over!
[17:36] ---
    You fools do not realize
    the importance of my work!
[17:40] ---
    You are the ones who took my job
    and my family from me!
[17:45] ---
    This flimsy bucket!
[17:47] ---
    It cannot contain the light
    of my all-seeing eyes!
[17:50] ---
    I will bring all of your secrets to light!
[17:55] ---
    I shall bring you complete humiliation!
[18:12] ---
    Wh-Wh-What kind of body is that?
[18:17] ---
    Shut up.
[18:20] ---
    You suddenly became so freaking talkative.
[18:23] ---
    What're you doing to someone that could be
    the same age as your daughter?
[18:30] ---
    It's your duty as an adult to admit
    your crime instead of lashing back like this.
[18:37] ---
    U-Um...
[18:39] ---
    Here.
[18:43] ---
    What was that just now? What was that
    just now? What was that just now?
[18:47] ---
    --What was that just now?
    - What was that just now? What? What?
[18:48] ---
    --He's a goner.
    --What was that just now?
    What was that just now? What? What?
[18:50] ---
    --What was that just now?
    - What was that just now? What? What?
[18:53] ---
    --It's fine!
    --What was that just now?
    What was that just now? What? What?
[18:58] ---
    I'm sure he had his reasons.
[19:02] ---
    We've gotten the images back...
    so as long as he promises not to do it again...
[19:09] ---
    Huh?!
[19:10] ---
    Hey, that's being way too nice!
[19:12] ---
    But he seems to have regretted what he's done.
[19:16] ---
    No, no. You can't let him go like this.
[19:19] ---
    Please open your eyes!
[19:20] ---
    --It'll be fine.
    --No, do you really understand?
    He saw you?! All of you!
    --What about you?
[19:23] ---
    --No, do you really understand?
    He saw you?! All of you!
    --Even if you ask me that...
[19:25] ---
    --Well, that's true, but...
    --I can't even use that head
    of his to practice cutting hair.
[19:27] ---
    --What? It's okay?! Really?!
    --I can't even use that head
    of his to practice cutting hair.
[19:30] ---
    It's fine!
[19:34] ---
    What was that just now? What was that
    just now? What was that just now?
[19:38] ---
    Wh-What? What was that? What?
[19:43] ---
    You forgot something.
[19:47] ---
    That power of yours. Try using it for
    something you really believe is right.
[19:54] ---
    If you drown in that power again,
    the last thing you'll see is my fist.
[20:07] ---
    And, you know...
[20:11] ---
    If you don't watch out,
    you'll just end up becoming a tool.
[20:17] ---
    It's like you were saying
    those words to yourself.
[20:22] ---
    You think?
[20:24] ---
    I do.
[20:26] ---
    Verrat Dreizhen. The brethren slayer, Device 13!
[20:32] ---
    The anecdotes of you stained in blood!
[20:38] ---
    In the past, there was a unit
    called the Noble Rot.
[20:49] ---
    Soldiers who dropped to rock bottom
    for the sake of their country.
[20:55] ---
    They seemed noble for
    giving themselves to the rot.
[21:02] ---
    Was that...
[21:06] ---
    His abilities still have ways
    to be used for good.
[21:12] ---
    He's different from me.
[21:18] ---
    Well, then.
[21:19] ---
    Old man, please finish taking care of me.
[21:22] ---
    Oh! But!
[21:28] ---
    But... There are people
    who've been saved by you, too.
[21:36] ---
    Juzo.
[23:21] ---
    --You aren't surprised seeing my face?
[23:22] ---
    --I'd like you to find my husband, Edmund.
    --You aren't surprised seeing my face?
[23:23] ---
    --Well, well. What an utterly
    unexpected turn of events!
    --I'd like you to find my husband, Edmund.
    --You aren't surprised seeing my face?
[23:25] ---
    --Well, well. What an utterly
    unexpected turn of events!
    --I've never seen you on the military register.
[23:26] ---
    --I'm sorry. Please forgive me!
    --I've never seen you on the military register.
