"We're almost to Japan now." "Your new home, Rosalie." "Mr. Hasumi, our captain wonders if you might join him for a game of chess in his quarters." "Certainly." "It would be my pleasure." "Rosalie, go back to the room without me." "The Pretty Little Girl From England" "If you listen closely, you should be able to hear" "The faint voice calling out to you" "Yes, deep within the thick woods of three thousand worlds" "Someone is screaming out to pry open the night" "Secret world, let's go to help beyond the veil" "Close your eyes and fly towards an invisible world" "Of the past, of the future" "Secret world, secret world" "Hello!" "Yoko!" "Kantaro, what's wrong?" " Did something happen?" " You see, it's like this." " Fine!" "So I' m still not as good as Hasumi?" " Oh, man, here he goes again." "Then, of course, there's Professor Numata." "Why did he choose Hasumi, of all people?" "!" "I can't frickin' believe this!" " Something happened with Hasumi?" " He came back to Japan yesterday." "He came back?" "Was he traveling abroad for something?" "The government appointed him to a cultural delegation sent to England." "He's a delegate?" "That's some big stuff." "But Kantaro didn't know anything about it." "He found out Professor Numata is the one who recommended Hasumi for the post." "Now I get it." "I quit!" "I'm gonna stop being a folklore researcher." "Somebody help." "Oh, Lord." "Lord, please save me." "Hey, a ramune marble." " Yeah." " Sure is pretty." " lsn't it?" " Mr. Ichinomiya." "Mr. Ichinomiya, I have some work for you." "Good morning, Mr. Ichinomiya..." "Reiko, could you please keep it down a little?" "What's his deal?" "Kantaro is just a little bit hung over." "What?" "He's hung over?" "How pathetic!" "What's so bad about a little hangover?" "Pull yourself together, will ya?" "!" "I have a job for you." "You'll be covering some real choice material, you hear me?" "!" " A priest?" " Correct." "When they found him, he was passed out inside the church." "He's in the hospital now, but no one knows exactly what happened." "Do you really think it was the work of a ghost?" "That's what I'd like our resident expert to investigate." "I can count on you, can't I?" " Mr. Ichinomiya?" " Why don't you ask Hasumi or something?" "I'm a little too busy trying to reevaluate my meaningless life at the moment." " He's still brooding over it." " Very uncool." "Well, so there you have it, Reiko." "I'm afraid today is no good." "So, well, you see, I..." " Thank you so much for your help." " Oh, no." "Rumor has it that shortly before this incident, there were unusual lights in the area around the church." "And some people have said they heard eerie moanings, too." "There were also eyewitness reports of poltergeist-like activity around the time the priest was found collapsed inside the church." " Kantaro?" " Do you have a headache?" "I'm gonna let you guys handle this one." "I'll be watching from the sidelines, so good luck." "So you're just gonna cop out?" "If you're a man, you should do what you said you would do." " She is right, Kantaro." " Huh?" " Aw, man." " Yes, we know." "The patient's room is over that way." "Please, pull yourself together." "Oh." " Excuse me." " Something happen?" "Hmm?" "I suppose this man is a friend of yours?" " Well..." " Truly regrettable." "We did all that we could, but..." "Merciful Lord, gently guide his soul toward your light." "Amen." "His soul departed for heaven just now." "So they don't know the cause of death?" " It's a little scary, isn't it?" " Yeah." "I'm going to the church for a bit." " I might come up with some answers." " You're going by yourself?" " We should all go together." " I don't think so." "If a spirit was involved in the death of that priest, it must be an extremely powerful one." "I think it would be safer if I went alone." "After all, who knows what could happen?" "So you're willing to go through with it." "Well, if you're a man, you have to do what you said you're gonna do, you know?" "I guess I just changed my mind, that's all." "It's crawling with 'em." "It seems like they're pretty weak, although you never know." "Haruka." "You came after all." "I had some free time." "There are so many of them around, it's like, where do you even begin?" "For that matter, what are all of them doing here, anyway?" "It's possible something in this place is drawing them in." "Do you sense anything?" "Nothing." "Not a trace." "Well..." "Huh?" "There's a hair color you don't see too often." "Who are you?" "Tell me why." "Tell me why you have wings." "What?" "Can you see them?" " Are you not human?" " Are you from around here?" "If so, there's something I'd like to ask you about." "I'm asking the questions." "You, could you be the " " Rosalie!" " What the...?" "Hasumi?" "I can't believe you came here again." "This girl is an acquaintance of yours?" "Oh, look." "Why, it's Ichinomiya." "I didn't notice you." " What are you doing here?" " Really?" "You didn't notice me?" "So that's it." "It was you, right?" "You lured Rosalie here, didn't you?" " Don't be stupid." " I blame you!" " Stop making things up already." " You're as self-centered as always." "Look who's talking!" "You're the one who's self-centered!" " Stop spouting nonsense." " Stop pissing' me off!" "Rosalie, you must stay away from weirdos like these." "Who are you callin' weirdo?" "You sure have a lot of nerve." "Who is this kid anyway, Hasumi?" "Come here, Rosalie." "I, Ryokan Hasumi, am the father of this darling little girl here." "She's your daughter?" "!" "Magnificent." "Your playing is as skillful as ever, Yumeyakko." "Thank you for your kind words, Professor Numata." "Goodness, Kantaro." "I never thought that you would come here as well." "Yeah, I am such a fricking nuisance, aren't I?" " Why are you all bent out of shape?" " Oh, no reason." "If you didn't want to come, you should have declined the invite." "After we went out of our way to invite you." "Yes, thank you so much for your esteemed invitation," "Cultural Envoy Professor Hasumi." "You're rather touchy today, aren't you, my equally renowned colleague?" "Enough!" "Will you two give it a rest?" "No, Rosalie." "Hold your chopsticks like this." "See?" " We hold them this way." " I like my way much better." "Hey, listen, you'll be living in Japan from now on." "It is imperative for you to learn Japanese etiquette." "And what's wrong with letting her eat how she pleases?" "Haruka, this is not your concern." "There, there, Mr. Hasumi." "There's no need to get so worked up." "I'm sure she'll learn things by and by." "There's nothing for you to worry about." "Yumeyakko's right." "You've always been a stickler for the rules." "Sometimes I'm afraid too much so, and that's not a good thing." " I-I see." " This is good." "I'm very glad that you like it." "You need the washroom?" "It's this way." "Go on ahead." "She's a cute girl, Hasumi." "She's a difficult girl." "She never listens to what I say." "And yet, despite that, you've taken her in as your own daughter." " What circumstances brought that about?" " Well..." "Huh?" "Rosalie had no one she could call family." "It's not something I had planned on." "I just couldn't bring myself to leave her there alone." "I see." "That's very good of you." "Thank you, Professor." "It wasn't because you had an interest in her powers?" "As a scholar, I can understand, but I must say, it's rather cruel of you." "Sating your curiosity will come at her expense." "It's not like that." "Enough of your unfounded assumptions." "Oh." "Then it's OK, huh?" "If you'll excuse me, too." "How about we pick up where we left off earlier?" " He's a type of goblin." " Goblin?" "The Japanese kind." "What exactly did you think he was, Rosalie?" " Lucifer." " Oh, I see." "Haruka's not a devil or anything." "There was something you wanted to ask me?" "Huh?" "Well..." "Hasumi was saying you've already visited the church several times since you've arrived here in Japan." "Why is that?" "Was it to pray?" "That's not it, is it?" "It's fine if you don't want to say." "Rosalie!" "Rosalie!" "Rosalie!" "Vanished again." "I've had enough of this." "I won't do it!" "Come on, we can't have that now." "You said that you would set them free." "Yes." "However, I never promised I would free every one of them." "I'll need your cooperation a little longer." "You see, there's a favor that you must yet repay me." "Come." "Let us begin." "For starters, let's just exorcise all the evil spirits." "We'll investigate after." "I'm gonna need your help with the exorcism." "You're bringing that thing along, are you?" "Well, she's already here." "We can't just turn her away, can we?" "Besides, if we're ever in a pinch, we can always rely on Muuchan, right?" " You bastard!" " Right on cue." "Kantaro, what the heck do you think you're doing?" "Seducing Muuchan again?" "You never learn!" "I'm not seducing her." "There's nothing to learn, OK?" "Silence!" "Let's go, Muuchan." "You'll turn into a bum like him." " Kantaro!" " Don't take it out on me." " Huh?" " What's the deal?" "There's not a single evil spirit in here." " They're all gone." " And there were so many of them yesterday." " A Western exorcist." " Huh?" "A spirit-dispelling expert." "An exorcism ceremony was conducted here." "So that's why the spirits all disappeared?" " You know quite a lot." " Who are you?" "You are the first Japanese I've met who knows so much about exorcism." "Because I'm more or less in the same business." "I see, then." "My name is Kantaro Ichinomiya, and I'm a folklorist." " Who are you?" " I am Edwards, Mr. Ichinomiya." "I'm a deacon in the Anglican Church." " I've come here as a cultural envoy." " Oh, I see." "Your efforts are appreciated." " If you'll excuse me..." " Please, hold on." " What is it?" " A little girl came by this church, didn't she?" " A little girl?" " I'm positive she was here." "Oh." "Well, I'm afraid I can't help you." "But didn't you see her doll there on the pew?" "Doll?" "Well, then, perhaps a little girl did indeed come here." "This is a church, you know." "Everyone is welcome here at any time." "I must be going." "Rosalie!" "So, there was one more evil spirit left." "I'll kill you." "An evil spirit's possessed her." "So she can be a medium, too?" " Be careful." " It's just an evil spirit." " Let me handle it." " Make sure she doesn't get hurt!" "I know." "Muuchan." "Muuchan, don't do that!" "If you eat those things, you'll just..." " Rosalie, hang in there." " Rosalie!" "Rosalie!" "Hang on, Rosalie!" " Ryokan." " Silly girl." "Don't worry me like that." " Hey, where'd that foreign guy go?" " Huh?" "Thanks to you, my stay in Japan was most interesting." "Well, I'm glad to hear it." "This was his doing, wasn't it?" "He used Rosalie so she could act as a medium to summon all those evil spirits." "But what was his purpose?" "I must say, I am truly indebted to you." "You even taught me how to conduct the ritual." "So, did you obtain what you desired?" "Yes." "These evil spirits are of great interest to me." "I'll conduct my research on this one as soon as I get back to England." "My thanks to you, Major General Minamoto." " You have my gratitude." " It's nothing." "Although I must say, that black goblin you were talking about is like the fallen angel Lucifer." " I'm fascinated by him." " Oh, really, now?" "I'll be coming back to see the black goblin." " By all means." " Oh, by the way." " Were you pleased with the item?" " Yes, of course." "I'm grateful for such a luxurious souvenir." " Ryokan?" " Hmm?" "Yes, what is it?" "I can walk now." "It's OK." "We'll be home soon." "Rosalie, you were just hallucinating." "And those things you told me about but can't recall?" "Those were all just part of your hallucinations." "There's no such thing as monsters." "I'll cure you of this." "Leave it to me." "After all, Rosalie, you are my daughter." "I'm starting to get sleepy." "Then go to sleep." "In the town at night, I found myself calling out to you" "I found myself calling out to you" "Though we're far apart" "I won't fall prey to loneliness" "When we feel there's someone on our side" "We all change" "Becoming stronger, stronger, stronger" "The unseen power invites hope" "The unseen power is the courage you gave me" "What will Kantaro's next case be?" "Ryokan Hasumi has founded a paranormal research society which attempts to solve unusual cases through science." "Kantaro goes along with him, hoping to prove the existence of monsters." "They run into a researcher named Ayame, a girl who dreams of encountering monsters and the unexpected." "Just then, a phantom monster appears before them all!" "Next time on Tactics, "The Paranormal Research Society.""
