- Oh, that's the girl. - Who?

Look, I told you before. The one that's interested in Taki.

She's in love with Taki?

I don't know about that, but she must be an idiot.

Right. Taki doesn't need a woman.

Let me see.

She's gorgeous, though.

- She'd be wasted on Taki. - Why don't you date her instead?

- No way! - You're too much of a kid for her.

I'm jealous of Taki.

It's a cop. Let's go!

- Hey! - Taki, get in!

What happened to your clothes?

Nothing.

Tell us.

You keep too many secrets from us.

Ah, you got some, didn't you?

- Nah, I fought some thugs. - Which thugs? From the Seibu Society?

Whatever.

He fought them and lost.

Just not strong enough for them.

Taki, we met your pretty lady.

A rich lady that likes to ride. She's cool!

Jiro, did you tell everyone?

So what, eh?

- What's that boat? - No idea.

It's a dumping ground. No surprise there's an old boat here.

It's had a weird past.

It does have a past, the boat and us, too.

She's driving, as I expected.

Ready.

Don't miss the target. We'll get nothing if you miss.

- We did it. - Yeah, baby!

Let's hurry.

Something wrong?

As you can see.

Looks like a puncture. We'll give you a hand.

It's all fixed now.

That's bad.

Let's take her to ours.

Hot day, eh?

Don't you think your brother's a bit tetchy?

Maybe he's had a fight with his wife. None of my business.

It's a scruffy place, but make yourself at home.

Thank you.

But I'm leaving.

- It's hot, eh? - It is.

- Shall we do it? - Yeah.

You can take your clothes off if you feel hot.

I thought I wanted to, but I've changed my mind.

What a let-down.

I wonder if she's really in love with him.

What the hell are you doing?

Keep on dancing, you piss-takers.

What the hell? That didn't go as planned.

I'm leaving.

I've had enough.

What the hell?

You lot better go home.

Are you mad at us, Taki?

We were just bored, that's all.

You're an idiot!

You could've taken advantage of the plan we made for you.

I feel sorry for them, they were only trying to please you.

You shouldn't have bothered.

I don't think she'll try to get closer to you.

Change your position a little. Okay, very good.

What's up?

Hey, drink up.

Somehow, this is my treat today. Somehow, right?

- By the way, I got bad news. - What?

- I heard that Debo went crazy. - How come?

He keeps digging up the ground at Toto High School.

For three days, now.

That's funny!

He's certainly looking weirder nowadays.

- Shall we go and see? - Yeah.

I'm not going. I can't take care of that fool.

He seems to have lost his marbles.

Hey, what the hell's the matter with you?

He never says anything.

Tell us, Debo. Everyone's worried about you.

Shut up and leave me alone!

Please! You're scaring us all.

Then get out of here, you're attracting too much attention.

- Let's go. - Yeah, but...

Let's go and leave him alone.

It's useless trying to stop him.

No, I'm not gonna stop him, I want to help him.

He might be treasure hunting.

I'd hate to see him find loads of treasure.

If you'll excuse me, folks...

I don't know if they're being weird cos it's so damn hot.

Is the Pelican Club breaking up?

I won't let it.

Will you stop doing this to me?

You're bothering me.

I want to ask you a favour.

It's not a good idea to ask a favour from a stranger.

You're no stranger.

Maybe not, but you're a stranger to me.

Don't be so cheeky.

I don't think I'm being cheeky.

What the hell's wrong with you? Want me to fuck you?

If so, come on in. I'll make you feel good.

Thank you.

But I'm not sure you will.

First of all, you're too cautious about me.

You suspect it might be a trap.

You're always very careful.

And that's what I need now.

- You bitch... - And secondly...

you're afraid of women.

Am I right?

- Must dash. - Hey, wait!

You lazy idiot!

He digs like a dog every night.

It's so hard, it makes me cry.

How about digging another type of hole, Debo?

Ladies would give you good money if you've got that kind of energy.

It's time to stop, Debo.

Shut up, it's none of your business.

Yes, it is.

Read this.

"A Giant Mole or a Prank?

"The Midnight Mystery of Toto High School Grounds."

Fuckwit! Your digging's got the attention of the newspapers.

You idiot.

- You'll stop it, right? - No way!

You're out of the club if you don't stop.

It's those Seibukai guys!

Shit! Ignore them.

Just rich kids pretending to be gangsters.

Stop the car. I can't take any more of it!

Interested in me now?

Don't embarrass me like that.

Damn it...

Damn it.

In the heavy rain, I shed my tears

Holding fast to the memory of a gentle man

I knew it was going to be like this someday

It still pains me to give you up

In the pouring rain, I shout my heart out

I just want to believe in your love

Where is he?

I've no idea where he's gone.

And Debo?

He might be...

I don't know!

Hey! Don't take it out on me.

It's not my fault Taki ain't here.

Right?

Oh, it's cold! Hi!

Who exactly are you?

I'll tell you.

Do you know Shinsuke Fujimori?

From the Seikyo Society?

Yes. He's one of the executives.

And?

I'm his mistress.

- Surprised? - Yeah, pretty much.

So what do you want? I'm not the religious type, though.

There's something they want to do to me?

Quite the opposite. There's something you can do to the Seikyo Society.

What?

A Nanbu 1914 model.

Two of them.

Three of them.

An old-model light machine gun.

Please, oh, wave

Don't wash it away

Taki's late.

What the hell is it, with his attitude?

I want to destroy this hut!

It's an earthquake!

Fuck you!

Happy now? It's destroyed, like you wished.

- What did you say? - He's right.

You're the one who wanted to destroy this hut.

That was a joke!

The Seibukai did this?

Hey, you're not saying it's my fault, are you?

I'm not saying that. What's done is done.

It's all wrecked, including your treasured record player and albums.

So what? Money can buy new ones.

I'll be away for a couple of days.

Jiro, look after the place for me.

Then again, there's nothing here to steal now.

Where are you going?

Somewhere.

Somewhere?

Don't you know any other words than that?

According to the man at the bath house,

the Kirishima Army was stationed at the school after the war.

One day, they heard that the MPs were coming,

so they buried their guns all over the place.

That's why I had a hard time finding them.

But I wonder if they'll still work, since they're so rusty.

Jiro, don't make a mess.

Just leave us be.

Finished.

Don't, you idiot!

Jiro, set up some targets.

Targets?

You can't shoot without a target.

Hey, let me fire it first.

I'll fire it first.

You bastard! You can't have all the fun.

Hand it over!

If one component's dodgy, it could take your hand right off.

Actually, the Nanbu 1914 model was known to go off on its own.

- You're kidding me. - I'm not!

Cool!

Get the fuck away!

That's enough.

- I told you to stop! - Why are you stopping us?

Are you deaf?

It's like informing all of Tokyo that the Pelican Club now has an army.

- Isn't that good? - No, it isn't.

Cos we're hiding out in the basement from now on.

- Hiding? - I have a plan.

I don't like the way you do things.

All right, what about this?

We'll go to the beach and camp there.

Don't tell me so many things at once. I'm getting confused.

Sorry.

But it's not something trivial. I'll tell when I get the outlook.

It's a good idea going to the beach, but what about money?

I got money. I'll only take those who want to go.

- Jiro, what about you? - I'll go.

- And you, Debo? - I won't be out of the club, will I?

Then put away those dangerous electrical devices.

Pull over after we've crossed the bridge.

- There's somebody who needs a lift. - You got someone else besides us?

Yeah, they'll be joining us.

Are they joining the Pelican Club, too?

I don't think so.

- Who is it? - You all know them.

It's a "her".

So that's how it is.

I'll tell you the reason later. Just drive for now.

Drive!

OVER-EXCITEMENT LEADS TO ROAD ACCIDENTS

This was all a deception to get us to agree with you.

This is all for her sake, basically, isn't it?

- You can think whatever you want. - Well, that's great, eh?

I want that.

It'd be easier to snatch if we deflate it first.

They'll see us deflating it.

Then give up.

- Let's just take it. - It's a bit conspicuous.

But I've had my eye on it. We'll just carry it away.

All right.

One, two, three and...

What's this?

And we're off!

We're all set. Let's go.

Hey, where you going?

You know where. We're on the beach so let's swim.

Ganishin and everyone... listen to me.

Since we're on the beach, let's stop being so petty

and use this as a training camp?

What the hell's that?

SEIKYO SOCIETY YOUTH DIVISION

I didn't know you were religious.

I don't believe in the gods or Buddha.

Then why that?

It's a lucky charm. It could come in useful.

Wake up!

One, two, three, four...

And to the side...

The Japanese soldiers have just woken up.

- They have it easy! - You're up late, gentlemen!

The underwater squad is supposed to appear from this cove.

And then...

Yes, here...

Hey, it's free time now. Let's go swimming.

Go ahead. I'll come later.

Oh, yeah?

Then there's a mountain here...

- What's wrong? - My little sister died yesterday.

That's your fault. Stand up!

You bastard!

Stand up!

Goddamn it!

You can't enter this area! You're disrupting the shot!

We're so sorry, sir.

Please be courteous to others

so everybody can have a good time at the beach.

Delinquents are infesting the beach.

If you see anyone causing trouble, please report them.

Where's Ganishin?

He's over there.

Who's this? Who are you, seriously?

- Leave her alone. - I'm mating with her, don't interrupt.

Ew, you pervert!

- Who are you guys? - I'm mating with her, don't interrupt.

Finished already? That was quick.

Shall we swim?

It's boring.

Hey, what about this?

Jiro, get the car.

Right then, gentlemen, let's get started!

One, two...

Three!

Hey, don't be so cocky.

Fancy meeting you here.

If you're bored, do something smart like us.

C-Ko, don't worry about them. Just run them over!

Aye-aye!

Cops! What do we do?

No reason to run. Let's hear what they have to say.

Stop disturbing the beach.

Did we do anything wrong?

Don't act innocent! You're showing your behinds!

Say "arse" instead. "Behind" is so old-fashioned!

Anything wrong with that?

I have to arrest you for indecent exposure.

I thought the thing dangling in front was indecent exposure.

We just showed our boring arses!

Get out, smart arse, I'm taking you down the station!

There's a surprise. Is that how civil servants are supposed to speak?

- You sound like a gangster. - You better take me seriously!

Give me your name.

Your name!

Member of the youth branch of the Seikyo Society, Tamao Kita.

Who are you? Their friend?

Seikyo Society? You're not lying?

You too?

I should take you all in, but I'll let you off with a warning.

Never do this again.

Right, that's perfect here.

On my mark, dive into the water.

Ready?

Go!

Jiro, what's wrong?

I can't swim!

That's weird... Debo can't swim either.

Idiot!

Swim like a frog. It's like kicking the water with your legs.

Learn the rest from Asako. She's good at diving.

- Is this a part of the training camp? - That's right.

You're the only one who can swim properly.

Good!

- What happened? - Those Seibukai punks got us.

Debo, what the hell are you doing?

- I'm going to get them back. - Wait!

How are you going to do that? Don't be stupid!

Taki! Why stop him?

We can't let them get away with this.

Debo, Jiro, come with me. We'll finish them.

- I can't let you go. - What?

- Be reasonable this time. - Don't be a fool.

They underestimate us because you're always backing down like that.

I understand that.

But now's not the time to worry about them.

Hey, Taki... What are you up to?

There's a limit to what I can endure.

I was about to tell you about it.

I don't like your attitude!

Yelling your head off will resolve nothing. That's just pointless.

Is that so?

I'm gonna send you flying! Let's go!

No way.

Let's fight this out. Come on!

Cut it out.

I make it a rule not to get into fights I can't win.

There's no way I can beat you in a fight.

I didn't mean any harm by not disclosing this earlier.

I was just worried that my plan would leak out.

Don't feel bad about it.

You've always kept plans from us until the last moment.

That's just the way you are.

The Seikyo Society will hold a festival on the 23rd and 24th of this month.

I hear that 200,000 believers will gather there.

They intend to collect contributions from believers

to build the main hall of the temple.

We estimate there'll be about 30 million yen.

Our plan is to steal all that money.

We're gonna steal 30 million yen?

- That's huge! - Indeed.

Are you sure about all the details?

I've double-checked everything. There's no doubt about it.

Somebody's coming!

Good evening.

Oh, here you are.

It's true, you are members of the Seikyo Society youth wing.

- Apologies for not believing you. - We're sorry about before.

- Is something wrong? - We're just on patrol.

Sorry for bothering you. Continue as you were.

- Oh, thank you... - Let's go.

Are we off? OK, well, good night.

Now they're resorting to voyeurism. Not bad, eh?

Not as exciting as flashing a light on somebody and saying,

"What are you up to?" I bet they love it!

Let's get back to the plan.

I want everybody's reaction first.

This is a do-or-die job.

It's not like snatching fruit from a grocer's.

One mistake and we risk getting shot by the police.

We need to be prepared for whatever happens, no matter how bad.

I don't want to force you to follow me.

Now is the time to back out.

I'm wondering about the cash... Are we going split it equally?

We can split however we want.

The point is whether we can win this big gamble or not.

I bet we can win.

If we win, we each have rights to one fifth of the money.

One fifth?

Shouldn't it be one sixth?

I don't need any.

Then why are you here?

I don't need the money, but I'll participate in the plan.

I just want to rob the Seikyo Society of their money.

- Count me in. - Me too.

Debo?

I can bring guns, right?

We can succeed without the need for guns.

I'd rather you not bring them.

- Then I'm not in. - This isn't a joke.

I don't want you to join us if you're not serious.

You in or not?

I'll admit it was Asako who first proposed this plan.

But it's me who's thought it over,

seen the site and judged if we could succeed.

Will you join us?

We can't turn back now.

You're right.

Still...

...you scare me.

Is that so?

I just hate him and the Seikyo Society.

That's it for today's exercises.

I'll have one more run.

I'm still tingling with excitement from last night.

I don't want any stray thoughts before the big day.

Excuse me, guys.

One, two... One, two...

Welcome back.

It hurts.

It's a deep wound, but fortunately it didn't hit anything vital.

He'll make a full recovery if he rests until his wound heals.

Where's your branch office?

I'm a section leader in the Seikyo Society.

Nice to meet you.

He should rest for a while.

And I won't say anything to the police.

Did you find them?

- I couldn't find them anywhere. - Of course not.

Why don't we settle this when we return to Tokyo?

Now's the time to think about our plan, but we might be in trouble.

I hope they won't postpone the festival because of what happened to Ganishin.

Don't worry about me.

A small wound like this will heal in a couple of days.

Asako, I need you to stay here.

You shouldn't hang around town.

And take care of Ganishin.

It's here.

That's the transport carrying the Society's cash.

Remember it well.

According to my observations,

there's only one police escort following the car.

Those are the sacks holding the cash?

They look heavy.

Those are coins.

What we're after are the bags with the bills. They're not heavy.

Right, let's go.

When the festival begins on the 23rd,

a vast number of believers will gather here.

The money donated during the festival will be held in a safe in the basement,

Then it'll be taken to the bank the next morning.

We'll steal the money that the Seikyo Society stole from its believers.

On the morning of the attack, we'll steal a refuse truck.

Debo, that's your job.

Easy-peasy.

Whenever they go to Hamana City from their office,

they always pass through this tunnel.

There's the important bridge right after the tunnel.

Debo, stop the car at the edge of the bridge.

Right, listen carefully.

After stealing the refuse truck,

Debo will pick up C-Ko and me and follow the transport.

We'll ram the truck into the transport

as close to the bridge as we possible can.

I don't think either the guards or the escort will be injured.

- Where should I be? - Over there, in this car.

Debo, C-Ko and I will pretend to investigate the accident

and then carry the cash sacks from the transport.

Don't bother with the coins.

Then we'll throw the sacks into the river.

Asako will stand by under the bridge.

She'll take the sacks and swim to the bottom of the cove.

It'll take less than 20 minutes to get to the ocean.

Then, Debo, C-Ko and I will get into Jiro's car and head back to the beach.

By the time they realise the transport's been attacked,

we'll already be out of town.

I wonder if Asako can carry all the sacks by herself?

She'll carry as many as she can,

but she might not be able to carry them all.

It can't be helped.

Debo, Jiro and C-Ko can't swim at all,

and you all know what happened to Ganishin.

We can't complain if we only get 15 million instead of 30.

Let's celebrate.

Taki?

You shouldn't.

Fifteen million instead of 30? Shit!

When I feel lonely

I come to the beach

I think of you

And I play this melody

Waves in the sea

Such a sad melody

Please, waves, I beg you

Don't disturb my melody

My lovely girl is listening to it

I softly try to grab the warmth

That lingers on the beach

That I walked with you

And I touch it to my cheek

With tears in my eyes...

Ganishin's gone!

You can't go in your condition. I'm begging you to stay.

I'm going cos I say I am.

You'll cause us trouble.

Please. Don't leave me out now.

My wound has healed, as you can see.

Please, guys!

Look, you can't let that cash sink to the bottom of the river.

We'll get all 30 million yen, no matter what!

Tell me, I know it's impossible for me to dive,

but there must be something I can do, right, big guy?

All right. Let's change the plan.

Asako and I will dive.

Jiro can take care of the refuse truck and Ganishin will stand by in the jeep.

- We'll adapt to the circumstances. - Gotcha! You're the man!

Come on, let's go.

OK, see you guys later. With bundles of cash!

Good luck!

I had a dream about you

I held you in my arms...

Shit, Debo...

It's coming!

- That's weird. - They've got another escort.

Taki said there'd only be one escort.

One more escort, big deal! Let's go!

Right, I'll get you in the middle of the bridge.

Emergency! Emergency!

Cash transport car was attacked. Need help immediately!

Go!

Goddamn it!

Jiro was shot!

Shit! I'll get him.

What are you doing? Quickly!

You brought that?

Good, Debo. Get in the car.

Let's go.

Stop! Stop!

Shit!

- It's a dead end. - Shit!

- There's no turning back now. - I'll shoot 'em up!

There's no way to escape! Give up your useless resistance!

Throw your weapons down and come out!

This is no joke. Ganishin, let's shoot!

Wait! Let's make it so C-Ko can get away.

C-Ko... run for it.

Climb down the bluffs and rejoin the group.

- Yeah, but... - No buts. Go now!

We'll catch up later.

C-Ko!

- Shit! - I can't stand any more!

They're here.

- Something's wrong. - What happened? She's alone.

Hold onto this.

What happened? Don't pass out!

Jiro... Debo... Ganishin...

- All dead. - All of them?

There was another escort cop.

Everything went well, except that...

Get out of here. They'll be here soon.

Quickly!

All right!

Come on!

THE END
