"Ah..." "I wish there was a great scoop somewhere..." "Hazama Residence" "Come on, hurry up!" "I am!" "Looks like we did it." "Yeah." "The old lady didn't want anyone to know about this mirror... and once we put it up in Thursday's auction, we'll be rich!" "I hope we get a good price." "We will." "What's this...?" "You got the appraisal?" "Right here." "Hurry up and drive." "Okay." "Thieves...?" "!" "This is my scoop!" "Mystical Princess Rosa's Mirror" "My, it's such a finely crafted mirror!" "It was made in the 17th century for Princess Rosa of Reyche." "No wonder..." "it's such a magnificent mirror." "The truth is, last night... the mirror was stolen along with its appraisal form." "There is a lovely legend regarding the princess who owned this mirror." "Antique collectors around the world are anxious to possess it." "If the word of its theft gets out..." "I fear the collectors will do anything to get their hands on it." "I merely want to live out my life in peace with my mirror." "Then we can't notify the police either, can we..." "No, all I can do is pray that it's returned to me without a scratch." "I understand." "Let us pray." "I'm sure our prayers will be answered." "And does she have any suspects?" "Yes, the mirror could have only been stolen by people in Mrs. Hazama's home." "She knows those two wanted it and has no doubt they stole it." "She says they visited her the other evening and after they left... she noticed the mirror was gone." "It was there when they arrived." "You'll need to find out where they've hidden it before you can get it back." "I know what I have to do Seira." "Leave it to St. Tail." "It's done!" "It's all done!" "Good Morning Miss Haneoka!" "Beautiful morning, isn't it?" "!" "Oh, good morning Sawatari." "Oh, it's the latest school newspaper." "Look, the feature story is my scoop!" "Mirror stolen from estate..." "St. Tail is the thief?" "!" "What's the matter, Haneoka?" "Great, isn't it?" "That's how I'll strike a blow against St. Tail!" "I've got more secret information on this case, too!" "Hey, what's going on?" "!" "What are you doing!" "Let me go!" "Hey, monkey boy!" "Who are you calling a monkey?" "!" "St. Tail would never do anything like this and you know it!" "You don't have any proof, so don't print lies!" "At any rate, you'd better rewrite your story." "Th... they're right!" "You wrote it without any proof... so you're the one who's going to look real bad in the end you know!" "Why is she so upset?" "Let me tell you something... we reporters stake our lives on our stories." "The universe could explode, but we'd never rewrite our story!" "He's hopeless." "I guess I have no other choice..." "What the...?" ""My target is Princess Rosa's mirror...?"" "What the...?" "A... a scoop!" "Hey, give it back!" "No way!" "A note from St. Tail is a great scoop!" "I've got to go rewrite my story!" "Excuse me ladies!" "Adieu!" "Adios!" "What was all that about never rewriting a story?" "But it worked out well." "Now he won't write about the mirror belonging to Mrs. Hazama." "I think he knows more about the mirror." "I've got to find out." "Journalism Club" "Where'd Sawatari go off to anyway?" "He's not here or in the classroom..." "I've always been interested in journalism, even when I was younger." "Really?" "You too, Miss Haneoka?" "That's right!" "Sawatari and Haneoka...?" "I didn't know you were interested in making the school paper." "Your constant enthusiasm must have rubbed off on me." "Look around for as long as you like." "Girls are always welcome here." "Thank you." "Hey!" "Why am I hiding for?" "Wow, is this your camera?" "Did you take this photo with this camera?" "This is great!" "There's a lot more!" "Want to see?" "Yes!" "Wow!" "You've even taken pictures of stars?" "They're beautiful." "I feel like I'd be intruding if I go in now." "But what I'm doing is eavesdropping..." "I've put on a good act pretending to be interested." "Now all I have to do is get the information." "By the way, about that mirror..." "Haneoka!" "What's with him?" "I'm so happy!" "Wait..." "Every girl who's come to me was only interested in my good looks." "You're the first one who showed an interest in my work!" "You don't understand..." "What am I gonna do?" "Haneoka, if it's alright, would you..." "Asuka Jr.!" "Why is he here?" "Monkey boy, I want to talk to you." "That's not my name!" "Besides, I have nothing to say to you!" "He couldn't be jealous?" "Sawatari, you know a lot more about that mirror, don't you?" "No, I guess not..." "Reporters never reveal their sources." "The world could end, but we'd never talk." "I'd like to hear more about it, too." "It must be a beautiful mirror." "It sure is!" "There's a story about a princess in the mirror's history." "And it sure is interesting." "I thought you said you'd never talk, not even if the world came to an end." "Alright already." "You want to hear it too, don't you?" "Party pooper." "The legend behind this mirror... is a love story about Princess Rosa of Reyche." "A love story?" "I did some research and learned that a long time ago..." "Princess Rosa fell in love with a young mirror maker from her village." "She was sad because she knew their love could never be." "Then one day... she asked him to make a mirror that would reflect her true self." "Not the figure in royal robes." "And when the mirror was finished and brought to the castle..." "The woman reflected on it was not Princess Rosa... but a simple young maiden named Rosa, her face filled with love." "The princess forsook her title... and took only the mirror with her." "She left the castle to marry the mirror maker." "And they lived happily ever after." "It has been said that any woman possessing that mirror... will live in happiness." "The real me..." "A mirror that will reflect the me that isn't St. Tail..." "I guess that's why antique collectors around the world... especially women, all want that mirror." "They can't even estimate how much it will sell for." "And why would St. Tail want that mirror?" "As I suspected." "It's always about St. Tail." "That I don't know." "And this is top secret... the mirror is being put on the block at the city's auction." "What did you say?" "!" "Lord, forgive me, for I use no gimmick or trick." "One!" "Two!" "Three!" "I'm leaving now Ruby." "Seira, I want to ask you something." "Can you put a stolen item up for auction?" "Usually, no." "But the thieves also took the appraisal slip with them." "So it's possible..." "Take care of Ruby please." "I will." "May God bless and protect us." "This magnificent Evans violin... has been sold for 20 million dollars to this gentleman." "Hey you, don't get in the way." "Tonight's the night I capture St. Tail." "I gave you important information." "The least you can do is let me photograph the auction." "The next item... is something we collectors have been searching for for a long time." "And now we have it!" "The famous Princess Rosa's Mirror!" "Amazing!" "So that's the famous Princess Rosa's mirror!" "It's fabulous!" "What's happening?" "What happened to the lights?" "What's going on here?" "Wha...?" "A flower?" "This flower is called..." "The Princess Rosa!" "It's Reyche's national flower!" "They're lovely..." "Oh, I get it!" "It's part of the presentation!" "This is great." "The ceiling!" "Wait!" "That mirror was stolen!" "Who said that?" "It couldn't be the Princess' ghost..." "Please, everyone, please remain calm." "Good evening." "Please forgive my intrusion." "Where?" "Where's that voice coming from?" "If I'd been on the stage... she'd have been in my blind spot and gotten away." "I was right about staying right here." "Those two men stole that mirror." "Stolen property... so you didn't..." "Now!" "I think we're in trouble!" "Now that you've been discovered, why don't you be good and return it?" "Damn you!" "We worked hard to get it!" "Alright, here's my chance!" "I'm going to beat that St. Tail!" "Damn!" "It's Show Time!" "It's too bright!" "For you!" "Brother!" "One!" "Two!" "Three!" "St. Tail, where are you?" "A reflection of one's true image..." "The lights are back to normal!" "Darn!" "The mirror's gone!" "Hey, look on the stage!" "What?" "The thieves?" "!" ""I have taken Princess Rosa's mirror, St. Tail. "" "Darn." "It was so bright, I couldn't take any pictures." "What's gonna happen to my scoop?" "It was never meant to be printed in the first place." "What?" "What was that back there I saw?" "Lord, thank you for returning my mirror." ""St. Tail returns priceless mirror." "Mirror taken from auction block. "" "What do you think?" "!" "My scoop made the front page again." "He never gives up..." "Good morning!" "Good morning, Meimi." "Your hair looks nice today." "Really?" "Maybe it does..." "Were you at the auction last night?" "I... um..." "Did he catch on?" "What do you mean?" "It's me!" "I'm St. Tail..." "Why?" "Why are you asking me that?" "As if I'd answer..." "Oh, never mind." "Besides, it's unscientific to see someone else's reflection in a mirror." "The lights blinded me for awhile... maybe something happened to my eyes." "I must have been seeing things." "But if I was hallucinating, then why?" "Why was it that I saw..." "Haneoka?"
