ADDITIONAL SUBJECTS HAKUJA IS SHOWING SIGNS OF DEGRADATION

[Kawashita humming]

[chuckles]

[alert blaring]

[grunts]

[Kawashita] Hmm?

What is it?

I have to report something!

Intruders have been detected in that facility.

[chuckles] Oh, right.

Thanks for the report.

[Sui] We missed the mark on this one.

As we suspected, massive amounts of Hazakura

have already been removed.

We'll withdraw immediately after retrieving a sample.

[beeping]

Sui!

[Kawashita] All righty.

Since they're sure to smoke out this place soon,

I guess it's time to leave.

Mmm-hmm. Glad to see that everyone's doing well.

[Oga straining]

[sighs]

That was a close call.

Who would have thought the place was rigged with a bomb?

[Sui] Right.

Guess everything we know about Tanpopo is just outdated information now.

-Oga? -Hmm?

Would you mind letting me down now?

[footsteps approaching]

So this is where you were.

Come on, let's get going.

[woman] Oh.

[blows air]

[Kawashita] To meet him.

MISSION: YOZAKURA FAMILY

PLAN 19 A DRUG CALLED TANPOPO

[teapot clanks]

[Momo] Mutsumi... Forgive me.

[Mutsumi] Father...

[growling softly]

Thanks, Goliath.

[growls]

-[door opens] -Uh?

[footsteps approach]

[breathing heavily]

So, what's the situation?

It's a total dead end.

The Hinagiku people have been helping out, but clues are still few and far between.

[Ayaka] We've even been pulling all-nighters

gathering data for over a week, but...

[Mutsumi] I see.

But there's one thing that we did find out.

It seems like Tanpopo's been transporting a certain substance on a regular basis.

A certain substance?

Do you mean...

We think it's Hazakura.

And in great volume, too.

Since a lot of the intel is fake,

we haven't been able to pinpoint the destination.

[Ayaka] But we did figure out some of their routes,

so we're having the siblings split up and investigate.

All right. Thanks for your report.

You must be exhausted, too, Ayaka.

Why don't you go lie down and rest for a while?

All right. I think I'll take you up on that.

Taiyo... He's still not back, is he?

[Ayaka] Huh? I don't think so.

But I'm sure that he'll be back any minute now.

[Mutsumi] Yes.

Thank you.

[Kawashita] And now, here's hoping that our strategy is a success.

Cheers!

STEAMED DUMPLINGS

[man coughs]

[woman] Do you smell something?

Look, Mr. Yozakura,

I'm the type who tries his utmost not to trample on other people's values.

But don't you think that eating smelly dumplings in a full car is a no-no?

[Momo] I do as I please, however I please.

[Kawashita] I've never seen anyone threaten someone with a dumpling before.

[Momo] Besides, you're allowed to bring food into the dining car.

Mmm... I think you're missing the point.

[bell tinkles]

I hear that he's on board.

[Kawashita] He's rather gutsy, so I don't dislike him.

That son-in-law of yours.

What's with this meal? It has no smell at all!

[waitress] We are very sorry.

I'll have them make it again right away.

I've brought you a replacement.

Wow! The walls are so polished, they're like mirrors!

You sure are something, newbie.

[Taiyo] I'll head over to do my next task.

[man groaning]

Everything looks so blurry.

Is this my room, I wonder?

[screams]

It's the next room, sir!

[straining]

[woman] The lock on my window won't open.

The latch appears to be broken.

I'm very sorry!

Choo-choo! Choo-choo!

Sir!

[Taiyo exhales heavily]

I haven't spotted anyone suspicious among either the passengers or the staff.

Does this train really belong to Tanpopo?

[Taiyo] It's been a few weeks since that trip.

I've been looking into Mutsumi's dad, Momo Yozakura.

But partly because he's officially deceased,

I couldn't find a single scrap of information.

Still, I did find out

that this tourist train is one of Tanpopo's smuggling routes.

Even if it seems like a lost cause...

I won't be giving up.

[train rattles]

[Taiyo] Huh?

Yae!

Are you kidding me?

Big Bro Shinzo only just modified it for me.

I modified Yae just for you, Taiyo!

[sighs]

[Taiyo] I'll use GPS to retrieve it later.

[gasps]

Look out!

Are you all right?

Thank you, porter.

I have more hair than most people.

[woman] Here.

[Taiyo] Huh?

How...

I just happened to see you drop this little toy.

I rushed to retrieve it and forced the window open,

and it came off, glass and all.

That's how I ended up in that position.

[Taiyo] What do you mean by "position"?

A cane?

I'm Shirai, from Room 13.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you very much!

Can I get you something as a thank you?

How lovely.

Then perhaps I'll have some wine?

Uh...

[woman] Hey! Porter!

Would you mind getting over here right now?

[Taiyo] Yes, ma'am! Right away!

I'm sorry. If you'll excuse me.

So kind, just like them.

[Taiyo] How can I help, ma'am?

[grunting]

The window in my room won't open!

What are you going to do if the smoke worsens my asthma?

[Taiyo] I'm very sorry.

However, as this is a steam-powered train...

[Taiyo] Those sooty stains all over the place,

no matter how much I clean.

Food without any taste.

[man] Everything looks blurry.

[Taiyo] It's like the smoke from the engine

is permeating the whole train.

[♪ pensive music playing]

[Taiyo] Why didn't I realize it right away?

This train has been modified.

It's not using the steam engine.

That's why...

[engine whirring]

...there shouldn't be any smoke in the first place!

Don't tell me...

POISON SPOTTER CAN ALSO PINPOINT WHO FARTED

ANALYZING...

LETHAL TOXIN CONCENTRATION 80%

So that's what's going on here!

Newbie?

Everyone, please get down.

[Taiyo] Yozakura Gun Technique...

Midarezakura!

[people gasping, screaming]

[woman] What was that?

DECREASING...

CLEAR

You were right.

A colorless, odorless hallucinatory gas called "Fog Mask."

Inhaling it will cause you

to lose the ability to accurately recognize anyone around you.

[Kawashita] For example, even if a wanted man were here,

no one would notice.

Kawashita!

[Kyoichiro] A black hat and round glasses.

That's what Father always had on.

[Momo] I see that you're injured. Are you all right?

Thank you very much.

[Taiyo] There was still someone in the hotel?

[Momo] You should take care of yourself.

If your body is weak, you won't be able to protect the one you want to protect.

So you're...

[Taiyo] Nice to meet you, Father.

I'm Mutsumi's husband.

I've come to greet you properly.

MISSION: YOZAKURA FAMILY

MISSION: YOZAKURA FAMILY

[Futaba sighs]

What a day...

I'm home.

Are Mutsumi and the others in the living room?

[Goliath grunts]

I struck out yet again.

They're manipulating us, and I don't like it.

[growls]

[Futaba] Hmm?

Mmm?

[♪ tense music playing]

I was searching for Taiyo's location using GPS...

and found this.

Have you contacted Taiyo?

It's no use. I've been trying but can't get through.

Is that so?

I'm going to let everyone know.

-[cell phone buzzes] -Hmm?

Hello?

Oh, that case?

Sorry, I'm a little busy right now.

[Futaba] It's time to go and pick up my younger brother.

HINAGIKU - RIN

[Shirai] You can stop right there, Taiyo.

That messy hair and those kind eyes...

You really are just like them.

Huh?

[Momo] You don't have to grip Yae so tightly.

Shinzo's a considerate guy.

He must have taught you how to hold it with a beginner's grip,

but this is tight enough for an electric gun with little recoil.

[Taiyo grunts]

[Kawashita] That's Hakuja.

An extremely valuable person who's 100% compatible with Hazakura.

[bell tinkles]

A Hazakura match and a Yozakura match.

I'd love to get some data on the difference in your abilities.

You were coming after us, so I thought I'd use you.

[Kawashita] It was quite a hassle, you know.

In order to scatter everyone in your family,

we had to feed you fake intel.

For that, a number of our smuggling routes had to go poof!

-[Taiyo straining] -But on the other hand,

we were able to lure you here...

Thanks for playing right into my hands!

I'll be looking forward to that data.

[Taiyo grunts]

Mutsumi's blood that flows through your veins will show you the way.

[Momo] Godspeed.

Mr. Yozakura...

did you really just tag along so you could greet your son-in-law?

Let's get going.

My dumplings will get cold.

You're the master of doing things as you please.

Speaking of doing as you please...

That time we attacked the Yozakuras,

we had our hands full cleaning up after you.

To be held in such esteem and to be indulged by that person...

I envy you.

[Kawashita] Who knows what you're planning

to do with us Nijibana members?

[Hakuja] You really shouldn't look away.

Or would you like to be ripped to shreds?

Coil.

[grunts]

How impressive.

[Hakuja] So that's the power of someinine.

-[grunts] -[chuckles]

[Hakuja] My hair uses a synthesized component of Yozakura blood

called para-someinine

as a catalyst to move my hair strands at an efficiency of 100%.

Even if you're the real deal,

you have no chance against me if you're inexperienced.

Hazakura will grant power to anyone who desires it.

[Taiyo] Huh?

I was saved when I was introduced to this power ten years ago.

This body was so sickly that I could barely even walk...

and Hazakura gave me a new lease on life.

Of course, everything comes with a price.

Human body can tolerate a 100% load of Hazakura for only up to ten years.

[Hakuja] Though it depends on how frequently one uses that power,

for people like me who use it constantly to extend their lifespan...

a dreadful death awaits for certain.

And my body will soon reach the end of its lifespan.

[gasps] Why would you do that?

It's quite simple.

[Hakuja] I had a strong desire to live, that's all.

Like a restaurant that satisfies your hunger,

or a hospital that brings you ease when you're ill,

it responds to people's strong desires.

That's what Tanpopo is about.

The Hazakura loaded onto this train

will eventually find its way to those who need it,

and the data from this battle will be utilized in the next stage of research.

Unless you stop both this train and me,

Tanpopo will soon swallow up everything and everyone.

You...

me...

as well as your wife.

[grunts]

Wrath.

[Taiyo grunts]

My bad. My hair blocks electricity.

If that's the case...

I'll just have to force through it.

Huh...

Second Yae...

Rain.

[chuckles lightly]
