01x12 - Where the River's Flow Changes

[bunniefuu]

You piece of sh*t! Why'd you save me?!

Your job is to exterminate, you moron!

I presume he's a member of the Banquet.

Hello there, Victor. It's been a while.

I figured those insurance guys

might be giving you some trouble.

Are you alone for once?

Aleister and Carmilla are here as well.

Well, you're late. I thought

you'd be here earlier.

Anyway, we'll be heading off now.

Ow!

Do you really think I saved you for free?

Tell me where the werewolf village is.

You all seem to say the same thing.

Well, things are a bit complicated right now.

Our original motive was to

fight you all, of course

I think your maid went downriver.

I saw a commotion.

Well, that'll speed things up.

We'd like some time to meet

back up with Shizuku.

Don't worry. Carmilla is with us.

We can't do anything during the day.

Tsugaru, tell him.

It's at the base of the fourth

mountain from the west.

Hand over the diamond.

Huh?

I'll take it as collateral in case

your information is false.

If I see you at the werewolf village,

I'll return it.

Aren't you the shrewd one?

Well, bye now.

Hey. You said something

about us showing up late

Did I? A birdbrain like me

forgets things so quickly

You manipulated us to lose the

insurance guys, didn't you?

Well, my mouth's all I've got going for me

Where the River's

Flow Changes

Episode

Twelve

Master, isn't this Miss Shizuku's nightgown?

Oh, over here, too.

See? I knew it was Miss Shizuku's.

Whoa.

I-It really worked. What should I do?

Well, hello there! Lovely day, isn't it?

Blue hair bird cage severed head

Whoa, it really is a severed head!

Are you Lady Aya?

Indeed, I am Lady Aya.

Um I'm Vera. I've been

waiting for you guys.

I'll lead you to the village.

Village? Um do you mean

the werewolf village?

Yes, Wolphinhel.

Here, wear this. It'll mask your smell a little.

Who told you we'd be coming?

Shizuku. I'll take you to her now.

You

Lady Aya?!

Hello there, Shizuku. Are you hurt?

I'm fine. How are you, Lady Aya?

I'm perfectly fine, besides missing

everything from the neck down.

You were actually useful for once.

Why, thank you.

I'll be waiting for my reward.

Ow!

Here you go, Miss Shizuku.

We managed to find everything,

even your shoes.

Pretty impressive, wouldn't you say?

Where is my underwear?

Oh, whoopsie! Guess I forgot.

Now, then

We heard most of the details on our way here.

It appears you had quite the time.

Tell me the results of your investigation.

I smell something from the prison.

It's a bizarre smell.

Could it be that woman's companions?

But we kept an eye on the forest

Let's go.

Well done. Thank you, Shizuku.

Of course.

Miss Kaya, do you know a werewolf

named Alma? She's an artist.

There's no one by that name here.

I figured not. Now, then

Would it be a bad idea for

Shizuku to escape from here?

What?!

She can't! The Blutkralle will

come and check. They'll notice.

Are these Blutkralle strong?

They are. They're our village's elite.

Very well.

I'm terribly sorry, Shizuku, but you'll

have to stay in here a while longer.

Tsugaru and I will investigate

the scene of the crime.

Couldn't we rest a bit longer?

They'll notice us soon.

This is a race against time.

Tsugaru, do you have any candles?

I do have an oil lamp.

Are you going to try to scare them with fire?

Not exactly

They're after us already.

Now, now

Oh? Are we here?

Is that the tree that was shot?

I see Tsugaru.

Show me the bloodstains.

And no other bloodstains in the area

Take me around that stone.

This is bad. They're already here.

Can you show me the bottom of this stone?

Yes, exactly.

Shifting a bit with each step

Try touching that spot.

No, really. We should

No, more to the right. The spot

that's a slightly different color.

Oh?

The smell stops.

Where did they go?

Did you know this would be down here, Master?

If no one heard g*nshots, that means

the girls must've been

k*lled somewhere enclosed.

Also, the werewolves couldn't

track the culprit's scent.

A place where a g*nsh*t wouldn't be heard,

which the werewolves couldn't detect

It had to be underground.

Whose blood is this?

We'll have to follow it and find out.

The victims were shot and k*lled here,

then dragged out to the surface.

That cloth was probably used to

carry them, and that's the m*rder weapon.

A 20 bore shotgun.

A worn old single-shot

Ah

This must be the g*n that

was stolen from Gustav.

It's Gustav's? What's it doing here?

I'm sure we'll find out if we go deeper.

Hey, hey, hey, hey

The victim from yesterday

must have died here.

The body must've been wet

from soaking in this pond.

Seems like the shape of

the bloodstain is different.

It comes from sh**ting someone

in a prone position from above.

I see.

But the g*n was at the entrance.

The culprit shot one round into the tree,

meaning they brought the

g*n along with the body.

Why go to so much trouble?

Hey, Tsugaru.

Shine the light over there.

Illuminate the wall.

Bewährung Probation?

These are days.

Five days in each grouping.

There seem to be around 500 days here.

Five hundred and fifty.

Let's move on.

Louise?

Well, hello. It's been a while.

There aren't many bloodstains.

She wasn't k*lled here.

I wonder who did it.

It appears as though the two

cases are now connected.

Look.

We're after a werewolf, right? Not a tanuki?

Indeed.

I just feel like someone's

putting one over on us.

Oh, dear.

It seemed unlikely that Rosa, who was

severely injured, could have climbed a cliff,

so I figured there had to be

a different route somewhere.

By the way, Tsugaru,

you're covered in moth scales.

Huh?

We originally walked about eight

hours to get to the village,

but this way was much quicker.

Probably less than two hours.

You two.

What are you doing here?

This body is definitely Louise's, correct?

Yes, without a doubt, it's Louise's.

There's one thing I need to confirm.

Then everything will be solved.

How did you treat Louise up

until she was four years old?

She was our town's guardian angel.

Everyone took good care of her.

Yes, that's how it was after

the werewolves were slain.

But how about before she was four years old?

A little girl who couldn't walk

was a burden to Heulendorf.

Am I wrong?

This is our punishment. It has to be!

This is our punishment!

Deborah

We tried to abandon our daughter!

Eight years ago, the day

before the festival

We took advantage of the flower picking

and brought her to the northern forest.

We took her out of her

wheelchair and left her there.

We thought it would make our lives easier!

But that evening, she came back with Jutte!

And then we

We went to save her!

We apologized to her and

regretted our actions!

But we really did abandon her first!

She pretended not to notice

But I know she understood what happened.

And that was the night Louise

exposed Jutte, wasn't it?

It's the werewolves. This is all their fault.

Go give your daughter a proper burial.

So Jutte saved Louise,

and Louise exposed Jutte?

Correct.

Louise likely found out about

Jutte's secret when she saved her.

And if Jutte was around,

everyone would've found out that

Louise was almost abandoned.

Louise was a very smart child.

I'm sure she was working desperately

on a strategy to survive.

In order to survive, she would

have to prove to everyone

in the village that she was useful.

Well, this case seems to be quite a mess.

No, it's plain and simple.

There's only one important clue.

And what's that?

The window in Louise's room.

Now, then Let's head back to Wolphinhel.

Do you still think it's simple?

Of course.

If they can come from the other side,

we can head in from this side as well, right?

Kyle.

Gather everyone from the village.

It appears my venom works on your kind, too.

Now don't go turning into a beast on me.

I'll lose my appetite.

Dennis! There's trouble!

Shizuku's g*n is gone!

What?

I guess it was stolen from Bernt's house!

Hurry! I'll stand guard here!

All right.

The hell are you doing?!

You're too obvious, you moron!

Hello there.

H-Here. You need this too, right?

Vera

I-I'm not doing this for you!

I just want to know who the m*rder*r is.

Truly thank you very much.

I'd like to properly thank you, but I know

you're in a difficult position.

Let us conceal ourselves for now.

Should we go hide in that hole again?

No.

We'll look for the right time

to return to the village again.

Huh?

There's one last thing we must do.

Oh, right, Vera. I'd like to

confirm what Shizuku told us

The villagers here fall asleep in the

morning and wake up at night.

Is that correct?

Y-Yeah.

And most villagers live on

their own. Also correct?

Y-Yeah. When we're babies,

everyone in the village helps raise us,

but we start living on our

own once we're about five.

What about it?

What are we going to do about that lot?

I'd really prefer if

they didn't get in our way.

Tsugaru, can you defeat them?

Huh?! Defeat Gunter and the others?!

That's impossible! You'll be k*lled!

And no one would miss him.

I-Is it the same k*ller who k*lled Nora?

But the way he was k*lled is different

They used some chemical

to throw off their scent.

The woman got away!

What?

I only took my eyes off of her briefly.

It looks like Vera helped her.

Bernt!

I definitely smell something.

The western forest.

Several unfamiliar smells as well.

Gunter, what do you want to do?

We'll find the detectives and k*ll them.

We are the claws of this village.

Don't forget that!

Where's Carmilla?

She went off ahead.

She said she wanted to grab a

bite before everything started.

Whatever. We should get going, too.

One, two, three

Three of them, then.

Yup, this place seems good.

Hup!

One down.

Dennis!

That's two.

Hup!

Up we go!

And that's three.

It appears the howling has stopped.

It looks like Tsugaru succeeded.

I mean, they could've just

stopped because they k*lled him.

I certainly hope he's dead.

All right, let's go.

What's the matter?

I smell something weird west of the village.

We're here, baby!

Finish off any of 'em that are still breathing.

Aim for their eyes and mouths!

Set their homes on fire.

Don't let a single one get away.

God save us

Granny Regi! There are intruders

from the north and the south!

They all smell dangerous!

There are humans from the west, too!

Dozens of them!

Impossible! How could they even get here?

Gather everyone to the square!

As many as you can!

We move in a pack.

We'll eradicate the ones atop the cliff!

Th-This is really bad!

There are dozens of voices I don't recognize.

I smell a lot of humans.

Royce must be here.

They've brought everyone from Heulendorf.

They must've found the underground tunnel.

Shizuku.

Go save Kaya. Vera and

I will handle things here.

No. I will protect you, Lady Aya.

I'll be fine.

We're outside of the village, so the

fighting won't reach here for a while.

And I have a very capable

part-time assistant.

But

This is an order. Go.

Yes, ma'am

Take good care of her.

Kaya is probably in the weaving house.

It was her turn today.

You're pretty nice, huh, Lady Aya?

I know, right? People tell

me that all the time.

By the way, what's a "part-time assistant"?

Oh, Banquet. You're here as well.

Did you k*ll them?

So unsightly

You're so unsightly that

I'm feeling nauseous.

You seem rather confident in your strength,

but you'll be at a disadvantage

going up against me.

Miss Kaya?

Miss Kaya!

You know

They weren't a big deal.

Shizuku

Wh-What the heck is this?

Everything has been solved.

Now, let us go.
