[00:28] (Flashback) Kazuki
    Why are you throwing it away?
[00:33] (Flashback) Kazuki
    Do you hate it now?
[00:34] (Flashback) Toi
    No.
[00:35] (Flashback) Toi
    But to survive, I have to throw it away.
[00:39] (Flashback) Kazuki
    Was that the same for me, too?
[00:42] (Flashback) Kazuki
    I'm not connected to anyone.
[00:45] (Flashback) Toi
    People realize they were connected
    when they no longer are.
[00:50] (Flashback) Toi
    I have to protect the connections I have.
[00:54] (Flashback) Toi
    So I'm giving up soccer.
[01:04] (Flashback) Toi
    Take it.
[01:07] (Flashback) Toi
    Some dreams come true because
    you're disconnected.
[01:13] Toi
    Of course he wouldn't remember.
[01:17] Chikai
    I guess this is the last
    time I see this place.
[01:20] Toi
    Nii-san.
[01:21] Toi
    Is everything okay?
[01:22] Toi
    What's going on?
[01:23] Chikai
    Who knows?
[01:25] Chikai
    But there's a good chance they've sniffed
    out what happened four years ago.
[01:31] Chikai
    You'd better not still be
    thinking that it's your fault.
[01:35] Toi
    Not really.
[01:37] Chikai
    Don't forget, though.
[01:39] Chikai
    Just as you need me, I need you.
[01:43] Chikai
    Come with me, Toi.
[01:46] Toi
    Nii-san...
[01:50] Chikai
    What's wrong?
[01:52] Toi
    Give me just a little time.
[01:55] Toi
    No, I'm going with you.
[01:57] Toi
    I've made up my mind about that.
[02:00] Toi
    But there are a couple of people
    I want to make sure are okay.
[02:05] Chikai
    I haven't seen you make that face in a while.
[02:09] Chikai
    Fine, fine.
[02:10] Chikai
    I'll be waiting.
[02:12] Chikai
    But only for one day.
[02:16] Toi
    Yeah.

    When everything sucks,
    just throw it all away.

    I happen to have a brother

[06:07] Enta
    I know.
[06:08] Chikai
    I don't know if it's because I haven't
    kept up with him for a while,

    but he's gotten so grown-up.
    He's not cute anymore.

    Well...

    That's not for me to say.

    So I'm going to give up what's

    He gave up soccer.
[08:45] Chikai
    He used to say he wanted to become

[09:03] Enta
    To who?!
[09:04] Enta
    Who did he give it to?!
[09:05] Chikai
    I wouldn't know.
[09:07] Chikai
    I'm sure he wanted someone to remember
    how much soccer meant to him.
[09:14] Chikai
    He's too earnest, really.
[09:17] Chikai
    He'd put himself in danger or
    get his hands dirty for my sake.
[09:23] Chikai
    Even though it's not like I asked him to.
[09:27] Enta
    Me, too.
[09:29] Enta
    I would have done anything for Kazuki.
[09:33] Enta
    No matter how much you do for someone,
    if it bears no fruit, it's not worth anything.
[09:38] Chikai
    That depends on how you look at it yourself.
[09:41] Chikai
    Just do whatever will make
    things easiest for you, then.

    He's dead.
[12:07] Cop A
    Did you two shoot him?
[12:09] Cop B
    This isn't going to pass as self-defense.
[12:12] Cop A
    Hey, why don't you two say something?
[12:15] Cop B
    It was Kuji the fugitive who shot him.
[12:18] Cop A
    What are you talking about?
[12:19] Cop B
    Kuji made enemies from the
    incident four years ago.
[12:23] Reo
    Exactly.
[12:24] Reo
    It's Kuji's fault.
[12:26] Cop A
    But there's no proof of that anywhere...
