"Amnesia..." "Many people say they're envious of it." "They sigh and say "Isn't it great?" ".."" "But having lost memory means there are no scars from the past, ...whether good or bad things, or something I really shouldn't forget," "I've no memory of any of these things." "Where was I?" "What have I forgotten?" "Hoshina Masahiko. 28 years old." "Guess?" "What kind of work he does?" "He's a stock broker for Shokin Co." "My goodness." "How did you know?" "He wears a badge of Shokin Co." "Wasn't there a guy similar to him, who wanted to deliver his account's stamp?" "How did you know he's a stock broker?" "Those who deal with clients, they wear clothes like this, don't they?" "You're really great, Yukio-chan!" "The delivery today is – roses" "Roses?" "The recipient must be a lady." "The date's for this Wednesday – her Happy Birthday!" " It's a birthday present?" " Yes!" "Yes!" "Yes!" " I'm delivering it?" " Yes." "Why isn't he delivering it himself?" "Because he can't!" "Why?" "Because the girl has quit her job at the club and he doesn't know where she is now" "Club?" "She's a call girl at this club." "Just call and wait at the hotel." "Girl comes, ding-dong and things get going.." "The client really likes this girl, Aoi-chan." "But she disappeared suddenly, causing him a headache." "So your first task is to find Aoi-chan, and then give the roses as a birthday present." " Understood?" " Yes." "This is the fee he'll be paying us." "Ask him to pay in cash." "3 million yen." "3 million yen?" "Delivering roses for a girl and he's paying 3 million yen?" "He said it's worth it" "We should have billed him for more working hours" "Uuuuwaaaaaaahhh~~~ ohhh!" "You're a delivery guy, too?" "Excuse me" "Uh, go on then." "It's hard work for you, too" "Excuse me... yooosh!" "I trusted you, that was why I bought the 4 million yen share." "Now what am I supposed to do?" "Forgive me." "I'll never forget this in all my life, having made you loose your investment" "I will make it up to you when I get the chance." "You keep bowing your head and saying sorry is complicating things for me" "I'm sorry." "I'm really sorry!" "How can I help you?" "I'm the delivery guy" "Aaah, I've been waiting for you." "These are the roses I want to give her..." "What type of person is she?" "A great girl." "I first met her in January this year..." "Works' been giving me a lot of stress..." "Are you listening?" "Um?" ".." "Yeah!" "I wanted to feel good and was willing to pay for it and at that time I happened to receive the advertisement of that club." "... and then you met this great girl?" "She's lively, has beautiful eyes, is attentive ..." "Boss, there's a call for you from Kurowada" "I have something important now." "Tell him to call back" "Yes ... and can you get this guest a cup of ..." "Did you hear that?" "Did you?" "I keep telling her, to shut the door slowly!" "She's totally different from that girl!" "Aoi's innocent, strong-willed," "She is just like an angel!" "Angel?" "Listen to me a man wants to hold a woman." "Actually it's the woman who wants to hold a man." "That's love!" "You said lively, beautiful eyes..." "I can understand that." "But is there anything else?" "Her complexion, hair, height  weight..." "the breasts are kinda small" "Her waist is tiny and cute, can't help to touch it ..." "Don't ramble on about feelings now!" "Just give the information in a way other people can understand!" "The feel of wanting to touch her...?" "I don't get it ..." "Ah, then, her birthday will be this Wednesday. 24th birthday" "28th May" "I once asked her what kind of present she wants." "She said she wanted red roses." "No matter how expensive, I'll buy it for her" "I think if she was to see you, she'd be a bit shy." "Hey, please, look for her and give this to her!" "Wish her happy birthday and tell her my feelings." "I can't live without her!" "I understand." "I'll look for her and give her the roses." "But I'll just deliver this to her  as for feelings..." "Yes..." "Hello, this is Club Mirika" "Is there a girl called Aoi?" "Are you a club member?" "Uh, yes.. yes" "Aoi has quit" "Is she working in another club now?" "Are you the guy who phoned the other day?" "Won't you accept another girl?" "We have all types." " But..." " How about it?" "I already bought a Gucci bag for Aoi." "I haven't given it to her yet." "Then you can send it to us" "I'm in a car at the moment..." "I'll call you back." "Episode 7" "Translation by f-chan" "Timing by scottishlass + rika" "Do not re-distribute or sell." "For your private viewing only." "These subs are free!" "Kobayashi Noriyaki." "Ex-convict" "Why did he go to prison?" "Insurance fraud" "Insurance fraud?" "How?" "He was a company manager." "When business went bad, he committed arson." "He was discovered, sent to prison." "He's out now." "He got 12 years." "This is Kobayashi Noriyaki ..." "Where's his son Yasaharu?" "I don't have any idea" "No idea?" "At all?" "At all." "Wait, wait..." "What?" ".." "I went through a lot of trouble for this" "So?" "At least tell me why you're looking for him." "I told you already!" "The adopted son of this man" " Yasaharu" "He is the son of the guy who took off with those 5 million yen." "If these two should get in touch, Yasaharu will get some important information." "In view of the young man  he sounds suspicious." "Like Hayasaka Yukio..." "If you compare them, they're quite similar" "Of course you're great..." "You, the lover of Insp. Gotanda's wife!" "Eh?" "What did you say?" "You're doing it again." "We promised not to mention that anymore!" "Then don't stick your nose in my business!" "That'll be better for you, Shin-kun." "It is true then..." "Kobayashi Yasaharu is Hayasaka Yukio" "Hayasaka Yukio is Kobayashi Yasaharu." "Order one more duck soup noodle." "Hey, Tamura!" "So no Aoi-chan at Club Minong ..." "Has she gone to another club?" "There are many Aois here..." "Wait, wait ... 29 people..." "Narrow it down to below 25 years old, ...with small waist, below 60cm," "Can you find it for me?" "If you can, I'll call and ask all of them." "Why to call them?" "You can't get infos on Aoi that way" "Why?" "In these clubs, you can't get to the girls if you are not a customer." "I have to be a customer?" "..." "No way!" "You, after you got amnesia ... you haven't been with a girl, have you?" "You have to seek them out sometimes   so that you'll know more about the meaning of life." "You know anybody?" "I'm not telling!" "Not telling?" "Whom do you know?" "No need to talk about me!" "Naomi?" "You go and find a girl ...!" "It's Naomi isn't it?" "No?" " No ..." " Then who?" " Who ...?" "Who!" "Aoi-san?" "I'm Aoi!" "When's your birthday?" "Mine?" "23 July." "I'll be 23" "What's your waist measurement?" "60 cm" "Interesting!" "Will the next one be interesting..?" "Interesting?" "Where are you calling?" "I'm Aoi" "Gosh!" "I'm Aoi ..." "As long as you do good, it's ok." "Women all over the world are in a confused state." "It's good that you try searching one ..." "But I don't think you can find her." "Not her." "Where is she?" "This is tiring..." "What was that?" " Good Evening!" "Hayasaka-san?" " Yes" "I'm Aoi." "Am I acceptable?" "You can change if I'm not the type" "When's your birthday?" "I only tell customers personal stuff" "Excuse me" "Please decide if you want me or not." "Ok, I won't ask for a change" "Thank you." "Since you've decided, can you pay first?" "2 million, 5 thousand yen." "Service is tax free." "Billings for overtime will be by the minutes." "10 April." "10 April?" "..." "Is it true?" "Yeah" "I see ..." "Why do you ask?" "I'm looking for someone" " A girl?" "Yeah ..." "Wednesday next week is her birthday ..." "Aoi." "Aoi..." "So that's why you asked for me?" "Yes." "You're the 8th person" "Don't you know her?" "She used to work in Club Minong." "Her name's Aoi, same as yours." "Why are you looking for her?" "A guy asked me   so that he can give her this birthday present." "In this day and age, giving roses?" "Really honourable!" "Well..." "How does the girl look like?" "Lively, beautiful eyes..." "Attentive, innocent, strong-willed..." "What?" "Sounds really far-fetched" "Why?" "I know that Aoi from Minong" "Really?" "!" "She's lazy, weak with downward eyes." "We used to live in the same apartment once." "I've seen her strangling and pulling the hair of someone" "Really?" "It's the truth." "She'll be better off dead" "Maybe the guy made her those things" "It's unthinkable." "He thinks girls here are better than those office girls." "He even proposed marriage." "How stupid!" "We're not freelance here ..." "Everybody has to do something extra to earn a bit more." "That's got nothing to do with me." "I just want to get this delivered to her" "I'll help you." "Aoi from Minong ..." "I'll help you to look for her." "I just want to have my revenge." "Plus   I really like you!" "Hotel?" "Yukio coming out of a hotel?" "I see." "Don't you care about this?" "Yukio was coming out of a hotel with a girl!" "Nonsense." "It's work!" "Work?" "Yes." "Yukio was delivering flowers for the girl." "Wait, wait ..." "What's that?" "What are you looking at?" "It's just for work!" "Don't you see me looking through this with hatred?" "If it's work, be quick about it." "You've just been sitting there and looking!" "It takes time to get the infos!" "I'm going out!" "Please give Yukio a hand" "Why is she so angry?" "Naoko-san has been strange lately!" "Yes, very strange!" "Look, this one has a great body!" "It's silicone" "Silicone?" "And this?" "Silicone" "Silicone" "And that?" "That place." "She used to go there." "Maybe you can get some infos there" "A saloon?" "Did Aoi colour her nails with bright nail polish?" "I don't know." "Sometimes it's cute to do nail polish." "But it's really nothing." "In the end, I just went there to relieve stress." "Aaah ... somebody's coming out" "I'll wait for you at the cafe..." "Don't tell anybody I'm here." "OK" "Good looking guy!" "How old are you?" "I don't know..." "Really?" "You look like a good guy!" "Stop it!" "Can you tell me about Aoi?" "Who is it?" "I've never heard about her." "But you said you knew her!" "Wait, wait!" ".." "What?" "I don't know that girl." "She's the worst!" "I hate her!" "I don't understand." "What do you hate her?" "She's full of lies!" "Lazy" "Quick-tempered!" "Likes to talk bad about others." "But you know what?" "She used to be a nurse!" "A nurse?" "Once she had a fight with a customer about money." "She got beaten up and then she disappeared." "If you asked her anything, she would just smile." "Really!" "She was hard to comprehend." "She can't seem to break away from her habit of stealing." "How was it?" "Thank you." "I have been told many things" "Got her address?" "Nobody knows it." "She doesn't seem to have any friends" "Told you!" "So?" "..." "What did they say?" "That she's full of lies ..." "Lazy..." "Quick-tempered..." "Like to talk bad about others and..." "I've forgotten what else" "See, really different, isn't it?" "... from the lively, beautiful eyes, attentive..." "What are you gonna do?" "Welcome." "What will you have?" "What did you order?" "Ice tea." "This'll be enough for me." "What are you going to do?" "What?" "Isn't it good?" "Full of lies, lazy – that kind of girl." "It's got nothing to do with me!" "I just want to deliver this to her." "It's similar to postmen." "They must get infos first before they can deliver the letters, don't they?" "But can you find her?" "She won't give people her phone no." "I have other ways." "It's alright" "What ways?" "She used to work as a nurse" "That's strange" "What?" "I thought she said she was a model.." ""Attention please!", that type." "You'd better ignore about what she did in the past." "People can say anything." "Are you disappointed?" "No, there's another thing..." "What?" "A golfer named Sakamaki." "He used to be a regular customer of Aoi." "He came looking for her many times, I think he knows something about her." "What's the matter?" "You keep calling her Aoi, Aoi.." "It's like you're talking about me!" "I can't help it, that's also her name!" "Aoi and me are different people!" "I don't like her..." "but I haven't said anything" "What are we gonna do about it?" "Call her "Aoi from Minong"" "Deliberately, like that?" "Yes, like that." "Hey, you're good with girls, aren't you?" "Me?" "You look great." "But something in your face..." "You've probably done some bad stuff." "Don't look at me like that!" "I just feel a bit attracted to you..." "So this is Yukio's father?" "We still don't know for sure." "This is just an assumption, IF Yukio is really Shinmata's son." "But you think he is, don't you?" "Yes" "Yes, we've found something interesting here!" "It's like reading the ending part of a novel." "Take a hold of yourself." "How do we know if Yukio is Shinmata's son – Kobayashi Yasaharu?" "Don't you know?" "The quickest way - let Yukio look at these photos!" "If the man's really his father  who has been taking care of Yukio   the boy will definetely react somehow!" "Will it make him to recall?" "Yes" "Are you afraid?" "What?" "... of Yukio having his memory back?" "What are you saying?" "!" "Yukio's memory is worth 50 billion!" "I only want my money back!" "So I've been looking after him these 3 years." "Don't be silly." "May be..." "But if Yukio knows who he really is  this won't be so interesting anymore?" "His loss of memory is not interesting" "But if Yukio remembers everything  even the things you'd prefer not to know?" "What was between Sakuhara and Shinmata?" "Why did Shinmata betray you?" "Rubbish!" "Do you think I'm concerned about all that?" "Wait a minute!" "What?" "You should be careful.." "Eh?" "Just now as you were standing up  I saw the vision of Fukuzawa-sensei letting go of his hand and walk away" "Fukuzawa-sensei?" "Justice... humanity and everything..." "What?" ".." "You, your fake eyelash is coming off" "Hello?" "Hello!" "I'm Hoshina." "How is it?" "Have you found her?" "I'm still looking." "Maybe it'll take more time." "Ha?" "Why?" "The Aoi you described, the one like an angel .." "But the real Aoi's not an angel, and not even very girl-like." "Oh please..." "No matter what - she's my angel" "Please!" "I understand." "I'll keep looking." "Bye." "That guy?" "What did he say?" "No matter what he still wants to find the girl" "That silly man." "You should have told him..." "She's full of lies, a lazy, rude girl" "Who it it?" "Hello?" "Hello Yukio, it's Noranasei" "How's is going over there?" "I'm still looking" "I'm in a hotel room, waiting for Aoi." "If I get anything, I'll call you..." "I wish I don't have to do this." "Ah, she's here!" "I'll call you!" "Bye!" "I hate this kind of work..." "Lighting's ok" "Clothes's ok." "Noranasei-san?" "I'm Aoi" "Aoi-chan?" "Please, come in." "It's a bit messy." "Btw, I have something to ask" "Excuse me, rules say you have to pay first" "Pay first." "You have receipt?" "Yes, I have" "I see!" "No problem!" "Money ... money ..." "Take it!" "Thank you." "I'll get ready" "Yeah!" "Please ... please ..." "I'll get ready too!" "Wow!" "oh my goodness" "Wow!" "Is this from America?" "Don't talk to me as if you know me." "What?" "Open up your legs" "Hey, I don't want this kind..." "Open them up!" "OK, OK..." "I just want the ordinary.." "Hey, it hurts!" "Wait!" "You're not used to this, are you?" "It's like I've been hit by lightning.." "What was it?" "A girl called Aoi from Minong" "She has quit the job" "It looks like it, doesn't it?" "Do you know where she's gone to?" "I don't." "Maybe she's been killed coz she's not good in the job?" "You're kidding me ..." "Just kidding." "But the girl's bad." "Bad?" "What do you mean?" "Some services are free but with her, I had to pay even for those free services." "I think she's been involved in a case regarding money, with the police." "But you've visited her many times?" "Just to get me off the jinx." "Because the first time I met Aoi the next day I won the championship after playing for a year." "For good luck, I'll call her every time before a tournament." "That's all." "So that's it..." "If not, I won't have anything to do with a girl who has no feelings like that." "I don't really know this, but I think she had a problem with Shokin Co." "Bad vibes?" "Once I heard her say, she's been duped by Shokin Co of all her money." "She was left with huge debts." "Quit her job." "She bought stocks?" "It went down one by one till everything was finished... 9 o'clock at Brothers Restaurant." "Actually tonight I want to..." "Alright, I understand." "How was it?" "She's greedy about money." "No feelings." "Fight with clients." "Had been in a police case." "He even said maybe the girl got killed because she's not good in her job" "How dare he ..." "Happy, aren't you?" "Yes, happy!" "She's better off dead" "You hate her?" "I really do." "I have to go." "A client called." "What are you going to do?" "Because she has a police record, I'll go and investigate from the police" "Police?" "This is bad!" "Why don't you just quit?" "It's better not to have anything to do with that kind of person" "Why?" "Nothing good will come out of it." "Initially, I didn't want to tell you  but I got a call just now." "The girl's said to be working in Shinyoku and using the name Sumi." "Aoi?" "aah.. that "Aoi from Minong" Sumi..." "Sumi..." "That place is a bit dangerous." "The type of work there's also different from here." "You better tell your client, even if she can be found there'll be a lot of unwanted stuff also." "You too..." "You better quit looking for her." "But delivery is my job." "You also have to do your job, don't you?" "Excuse me, where can I fnd a girl called Sumi?" "Ah, sorry.. excuse me.." "Is there anybody called Sumi here?" "Where is she..." "What is it?" "Eh?" ".." "Ah, nothing..." "Are you Sumi?" "Yes..." "What is it?" "Did you use to work in Club Minong?" "Eh?" "..and used the name Aoi for work there?" "What are you saying?" "I've been Sumi for 10 years." "Furthermore, there's no Aoi in this area." "OK.." "OK..." "You're delivering flowers?" "Yeah, but..." "May I know when's your birthday?" "Birthday?" "You keep asking strange questions!" "Why are you looking for my Sumi?" "Don't you dare look for my Sumi..." "Oh, dear.." "I'm sorry..." "Sumi-chan, how are you?" "What is that?" "Calling herself Sumi?" ".." "I'm back..." "Yoh!" "I've been to Shinyoku." "That Sumi is a 40 year old gay." "Who did you say gave you this info?" "None of your bussiness." "Look here!" "..." "I was punched by Sumi's boyfriend." "It hurts!" "Do you have a tissue?" "I have it, here hold this" "I was given tissues at Shinyoku.." "What's that?" "Proof of receipt." "It's you, isn't it?" "Aoi from Minong." "You know too much about Aoi..." "You live in the same apartment, went to the same saloon" "Why do you hate Aoi so much?" "Because she's you!" "And not just that." "At one time you said "I"." ""I"?" "Yes, you said:" ""I only came here to relieve stress"." "Sometimes it's cute to do nail polish." "But I only came here to relieve stress." "I thought I had heard wrong but it kept going round in my head." "But look, pic of Aoi is coming out." "Don't talk rubbish." "Just because you haven't found her, don't look for me as substitute." "Return this." "To whom?" "To the fool with big, fat salary who's looking for her." "What?" "How do you know?" "I didn't tell you that he's a white-collared working guy." "It's been tiring..." "Why did you lie?" "Because I like to!" "Really?" ".." "Well, as long as I've delivered this to you!" "Happy birthday!" "Why did you do that?" "!" "It was a lie." "The birthday, it was a lie" "I don't tell clients the truth." "Being kind and gentle to them – that was a lie, too." "Laughing and crying – all were lies." "Just business transactions." "You don't lie to your clients." "Only to the stock broker guy." "The golfer told, you'd been duped by a stock broker company." "You got into debts, right?" "..." "This is so un-cool.." "You know the other side of the story." "Sorry." "You don't have to be sorry" "I'm lying to him now." "He lied to me before." "My friends suggested me to invest in stocks, so I bought some." "Nurses are quite well-paid." "But maybe I was naïve.." "He was a cool guy and intelligent... so I followed his advices and borrowed a lot of money." "I lost everything." "He wasn't doing well, so he was using me and taking advantage of me" "I was really mad at him..." "But he kept asking me to forgive him.." "and I forgave him." "He said he was responsible for it ...and he won't forget it for the rest of his life." "Because of the huge debts, I felt even if I worked really hard, it wouldn't work." "So I started in this line of work." "So, then it wasn't because ..." "No, not at all." "While at a hotel with a client, I just bumped into him." "But he didn't recognize me at all..!" "He'd forgotten about me." "For me, he's just one of many clients." "I won't forgive him this time." "So you seduced and then dumped him?" "Yes." "It was real easy." "Sorry for all the lies." "But I really hate..." "Aoi from Minong." "I really do ..." "Hey!" "Could you give him a message from me?" "What is it?" "I'd forgotten her?" "That's not possible !" "I'll never forget her." "I really love this woman." "Anyway, I've delivered the present to her." "This is the phone number of the new place she's working at." "See you" "Wait!" "I don't know what to do!" "Does she like another man?" "If she hates me, I'll let it go" "Does she hate me?" "And what do you think?" "Try and recall." "You'll remember her." "What do you mean?" "Wait!" "What about me?" "I'm the same as him..." "For the first time, I realized  forgetting is a cruel thing." "Even though I've lost my memory  I believe I have hurt people in the past." "I'm from Kudayama." "Hoshina-san?" "Yes" "I'm Aoi." "Hi" "You were the nurse, weren't you?" "I remember now." "I'm sorry" "The delivery guy told me and finally I remember." "At that time I used your love and lied to you..." "Maybe god's punishing me." "Now I have problems at work." "Huge losses." "I'm using clients' money to cover up the losses." "Only a bit more and it'll be over." "I'd forgotten about you and now I'm being punished." "But..." "Wha.." "What?" "You don't seem to be satisfied with me" "I'll go and ask them to send another girl." "That night Hoshina tried to cover up the huge losses from 3 years before." "And he made a mistake..." "The stock broker's been arrested.." "And what about this bill?" "!" "What are we going to do with it?" "I went to enquire..." "His accounts have been frozen." "So we can't get the money anymore." "What?" "!" "What do you mean?" "It's just a useless piece of paper now!" "Yes, yes.." "Useless piece of..." "I told you!" "Fukuzawa-sensei told you to be careful" "What does it mean?" "Oh, that's the person on the 1 million yen bill.." "Hi." "Why's everybody here?" "Your receipt." "Yukio-chan!" ".." "Yukio!" "I have something for you to look at." "What?" "Do you remember this person?" "I don't know." "Don't you remember him?" "No." "Hey, what am I delivering today?" "It's not that." "Have a good look!" "I don't know him ..." "Look really good!" "You shut up." "How is it?" "Who is he?" "Quiet" "If this is not work-related ..." "I'm going home..." "Wait!" "You really don't know?" "Why are you getting angry?" "This person's someone close to you." "If this is true, this is the face of someone you don't forget." "This person is your father."
