A magnificent mushroom

cloud in the sky

Raa-eee-yaa Ra-ra-e-yo-ra

In the afternoon of birds

pecking at food in an alley

Touching the grass under the sunlight

streaming through the leaves

I'll talk with you

See, on the lunch bench

A dream blossoms

Carry the sound of

the waves in your heart

Sink your blues

Stretch a bridge to tomorrow

Don't worry about tsunami

The afternoon of birds

The dream I nurtured

on the lunch bench

The afternoon, born on the day of the

sunlight streaming through the leaves

Excuse me.

We received a call

from North Station

that a severely injured person

had been admitted to the hospital.

Um, she was struck on the head

and since there's a similarity

with the series of attacks

they'd like to refer to

our report just in case.

MHz

Are you awake?

You surprised us. It was so sudden.

He came.

Shonen Bat.

Amnesia?

Can you imagine,

it's Hirukawa's daughter.

Poor girl.

What about Tsukiko Sagi?

Shonen Bat

Maybe that fainting fit

was an act too.

Section Leader Hirukawa's daughter

We already nabbed the culprit.

Are you trying to tell me

there's another wacko like Kozuka?

Or rather

Either way, with the victim having

amnesia and no witnesses

you've got nothing to work with.

Besides, it happened within

North Station's jurisdiction.

Our case is closed.

Anyway, the outer moat is filled up.

Now we deal with the inner castle.

Let's go.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I'm a Holy Warrior!

I have no time to

waste in a place like this!

Tell me if you found the Mi Jot tribe.

I'll go back to the

save point again, and

How did you attack Tsukiko Sagi?

The first victim.

You haven't told us about her yet.

At that time, Gohma was

The first attack was a

hoax set up by Tsukiko Sagi.

There was no street

assailant anywhere.

You just went along for the ride with

the phony street assailant

and attacked people indiscriminately

deluding yourself into thinking

you're some kind of ridiculous hero.

A game or whatever it is,

you're not a "chosen one" at all.

I

You can't do anything alone.

The only thing you're

capable of is being a wanna-be.

I have to save the world

You're nothing but a pathetic copycat!

I'm the Holy Warrior!

In short, you felt cornered

and wanted to escape.

How relieved you'd feel

if you could just have been

attacked by a street assailant

Who cares about that senile old man?

I'm the victim

for accidentally hitting him.

Then arrest the real suspect, quickly!

Because of this incident,

Yuichi is now being bullied in school!

Other kids are saying

that he's the suspect!

To me all of them looked somewhat

relieved after they were attacked.

I'm very sorry to have

troubled you to come here.

Is there something else?

Well, thanks to your cooperation,

Kozuka confessed.

However

The only ones I attacked were that

fat kid and the middle aged man!

The rest wasn't me.

It's true!

I really didn't do the other ones!

But

May I ask you a question?

I don't mean to offend you, but

By any chance

were you being troubled by

some personal issues

before you were attacked?

Maybe something that made

you feel emotionally cornered

Why are you asking such a thing?

It doesn't have to be directly

related to the attack.

Trouble

It can be something really small.

Maybe your mom scolded you,

or you forgot to do your homework.

Trouble Trouble

Oh, you don't have to start troubling

yourself trying to remember.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Musashino South Grade School

What did you say?

I'm talking about Kozuka.

Maybe his statement that

he only attacked Ushiyama

and Section Leader Hirukawa

wasn't a total lie.

Section Leader Hirukawa aside,

the point here is Ushiyama.

He is the one case that's different.

Different?

What do you mean?

All the victims had

something in common.

They were all under situations where

they were emotionally distraught.

Sagi

Her case is different, isn't it?

Sagi was under pressure

for the next design

Kawazu was in financial difficulty

Yuichi Taira was being bullied

Harumi Chono wouldn't tell me

but it seemed like she'd

been troubled about something.

But there was nothing troubling

Ushiyama in his case.

He didn't have any personal

problems when he was attacked.

What are you trying to say?

Fine.

Let's say Kozuka only attacked

Hirukawa and Ushiyama.

Then who attacked the others?

That's

I don't know how, but who in the

world could pull off such a trick

as to hand-pick targets on the

verge of nervous breakdown, huh?

Hey, look.

"An investigation must be undertaken

scientifically," remember?

What does your

detective's instinct tell you?

My detective's instinct?

It dried up long ago.

A series of street attacks

with no logical connection.

A copycat who can't distinguish

a game from reality.

I've had enough.

Hey, it's getting cold.

What's the matter?

He came.

Shonen Bat.

I was really impressed

by Shonen Bat.

He's only a kid, but he's so cool.

So I thought, if

if I'm gonna do it anyway,

then before that

And what about Kawazu?

How did you attack him?

Is it like we suspected?

Were you following Tsukiko Sagi?

Believe me, please!

I saw about the attack on

Mr. Kawazu on TV, and

How did you attack Yuichi Taira

and Harumi Chono?

I already told you so many times!

It was you!

It was all your doing!

You think you can keep

making fools of the police?!

Detective

The Ancient Master

Take me to the Ancient Master

Wait, is this everything we ordered?

I wonder?

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Sautéed black swallowtails, sirs.

Now, I'll show you my miraculous

illusion. Going through a wall!

Nice and easy!

There!

My next trick is the greatest

magic trick of the century!

Make sure you keep your eyes

wide open and observe carefully!

It's important.

Ms. Taeko Hirukawa

Ms. Taeko Hirukawa

Are you aware of anything

Ms. Taeko Hirukawa

That's been troubling

your daughter recently?

That's been troubling

your daughter recently?

Please.

Mr. Hirukawa!

Don't you see?

Mr. Hirukawa's daughter was

also being troubled by something!

She was feeling cornered!

She's also a victim

of Shonen Bat!

I checked the log on her cell phone.

The call with her father

was terminated at 4:13 pm.

That's about the same time

as when Ms. Sagi collapsed.

In other words, they both called

Shonen Bat at the same time

and he appeared to the

both of them at the same time.

He's one person, yet he's not.

He's capable of appearing

in front of any person

who's been driven into a corner and

has nowhere to go, anytime, anywhere.

He's still at large!

Shonen Bat is still out there!

Maniwa.

Take some time off.

Someone cornered

Someone cornered

If we can specify the person

who's cornered, we can nab him.

Yes, right now!

Please, just one more time,

trust me one last time!

Chief, if they find out,

I'll get a salary cut

I won't get away with just a salary cut.

Don't expect me to take

responsibility for this.

Kozuka?

Freeze!

Hey!

The Musashino South Police Station

held a press conference yesterday

regarding the suicide of the boy

who was in police custody as a

suspect in the series of street attacks.

The Police Department

made a public apology

and also announced the resignation

of the Station Commander

for not being able to fulfill

his managerial responsibility

as well as resignation of detectives

who had been in charge of the case.

With their resignations,

this case will most likely be closed by

the prosecutor's office now that

the suspect has been declared dead.

They say he went through the wall

Too bad for the Chief.

Teaming up with Maniwa

was his downfall, I'd say.

Someone cornered

Someone cornered

If we can specify the person

who's cornered, we can nab him!

Where?

Where's the cornered person?

CQ, CQ, this is

It wasn't suicide.

Kozuka was m*rder*d.

He's one person, yet he's not.

He's capable of appearing

in front of any person

who's been driven into a corner

anytime, anywhere.

He's still at large.

Shonen Bat is still out there!
