声には出さず　屋上で叫ぶオレ {handwritten text}
Me shouting on the roof, not actually making a sound.

何とかしてよ...神様
Please do something about this...God

神様!?
God!?

Suddenly calling for God or something...

椿龍太喋る雀に遭う {Narration Box}
Tsubaki Ryuta meets a talking sparrow.


pg 20/344
信じらんねェ...!!
unbelievable...!!

朝俺を轢いたのが本当に宇宙人だったなんて...！
The one that ran me over this morning was really an alien...!
フルネームはンソクャジル＝ケイマ＝スッンリプ＝スパロウだ
My full name is N'sok'yajil=Keima=S'n'lip=Sparrow.
いやそれは覚えねーけど...
Uh, I'm wont remember that...

しかもこんな奴が宇宙警察の捜査官だとオ!!?
And yet, someone like this is the Chief Investigator of the Space Police!!?
厳密に言えばＣＢＩ...
To be precise, it's the CBI...
Cosmos Bureau Investigation（宇宙捜査局）の捜査官だ
The Chief Investigator of the Cosmos Bureau of Investigation (Space Investigation Bureau)
いや...それも覚えないけどね!?
Umm...I'm not gonna remember that either!?

つか待てよ...つまりお前の体が形を変え俺の命となって消えたんだろ?
but hold on a sec...so basically your body changed its form, became my life, and disappeared?
その通り命＝動く体だからな
Exactly, since life=a moving body.

パアアアア {SFX above Sparrow drawing}
PAAAAA
復活！ {text above human drawing}
Revival!
＊地球人とは違う素材の体 {Text below Sparrow drawing}
＊A body made of different materials than Earthlings

じゃあここにいるお前は何なんだよ!?
Then, what about the you that's here!?
お前は何だ!? {Handwritten text next to Ryuta}
What are you!?
だからそれは残った魂が未練によって近くにいた雀に乗り移ったってコトだろ多分
Like I said, the leftover soul was still attached to this world so it took over a nearby sparrow, probably.
魂＝「思考」や「記憶」だからな...
Soul="thoughts" and "memory," after all...


pg 21/345
つまり宇宙人の霊がスズメにとりついてるってコトかよ!!
So in short, an alien's ghost has possessed a sparrow!!

そして俺が来たからには安心しろ少年
Now that I'm here you can relax, boy.
!? {Ryuta}

なぜかキミは今回の件でスーパーマンのごとき力を手に入れてしまったようたが...
For some reason in this case, you seemed to have acquired Superman-like powers but...
もう大丈夫だ
it's all right now.

俺がこうしてキミにしている限り
As long as I stay in contact with you like this,
そのスーパーパワーは俺が抑えることができる！
I can restrain that super power!
!? {Ryuta}

マジで？
Seriously?

試しにそこの柵を曲げてみろ
As a test, try to bend that railing.

pg 22/346

Eh!? Doesn't that mean...
ああ最悪だがこれから俺らは毎日一緒...
Yup, it's unpleasant, but from now we'll be together every day...

Since it can't be helped.

やれやれスターの悩み気取りか {normal text}
バカだねェ {small text}
Well well, A star's pretentious problems, eh?
How silly.
安心しろ皆すぐ馴れて騒がなくなるから...
Chill out, everyone'll get used to it and stop making a big deal soon enough...


pg 24/348
くっ
urgh
これだから何も解っちゃねェ鳥は...
This is why I'm saying a bird just can't get it...
あ？
oh?
それって俺のコト？
You talkin bout me?
ウケ狙いと思われて騒がれてるウチはまだいいんだよ！
It's not so bad while they still think I'm trying to be funny and make a big deal out of it!

問題はこの状態を毎日続けた場合だ...!!
The problem is when this situation continues every day...!!
なあさっきの鳥って俺のコト？
Hey, that bird you mentioned, you meant me?

誰も反応しなくなったにも関らず肩に鳥をのせ...
Even if no one reacts anymore, I'll keep putting the bird on my shoulder...
先生に何度注意されても鳥をのせ...
Even after several warnings from the teacher, I'll still have the bird there...
この先ずっと常に鳥をのせ続けてみろ...
And if from now on I'll always continue to be wearing the bird...

奴らはそのウチ俺をこう認識するだろう
Eventually they'll start to recognize me as,
実にナチュラルに...！
and really naturally too, as...!

変人...と!!
A...WEIRDO!!


pg 25/349
ぐわああああ―――――ッ変人は嫌だぁ――ッ
Aghhhhhh---! I don't want to be a weirdoooo!

おい安心しろ今でも十分変人だから
Hey, don't worry, you're weird enough already.

変人っつーのはつまりアイツだぞっ朝緒カユ！
A weirdo is basically someone like that Asao Kyu!
ハ―――　ハ――― {SFX}
HAAAAH HAAAAH
日常的に触角をつけてる {handwritten text}
Wearing antennae as a routine thing.

俺が今まで奴を見ていたよーな目で見られるんだぞォ!?
Others will look at me the way i have always been looking at her, you know!?
どんな目だよ
what look is that?
何だアイツって目だよ！ {bigger text}
イタイなコイツってゆー {smaller text}
The "what the hell is their problem" look!
The "what a disturbing sight" look.
ああ今俺がキミをみてる目か
Aah, the way I'm looking at you right now.

俺だけじゃないッ皆そー見てたッその証拠に話しかける奴なんて１人もいなかった
It's not just me! Everyone looks at her like that! As proof, there isn't a single person who talks to her.
おいそりゃイジメジャねーの？
Hey, isn't that bullying?
悪意があったワケじゃない！ナチュラルにそーなる!!
No one had any bad intentions! It naturally ends up like that!!

俺は心底ああはなりたくないと思って生きてきたんだよ――――ッ
All my life i’ve always thought from the bottom of my heart that I don't want to be like that----!
歯はキレイだな心はともかく
You've got nice teeth, can't say the same for your soul though.


pg 26/350
まあ...そんなワケで
Well, that's how it is,
俺刑事のマネゴトとか一切やる気ないから...
so I have absolutely no intention of playing cops or whatever...
フラッ {SFX}

I'm not reaching his heart at all!!
そして老けすぎ {small text}
Plus, he looks too old.

むう　このガキンチョ...
Grr, this brat...
チッ
pssht
地球の現代っ子はこうもやる気がないモノなのか!?
Earthling kids these days lack determination or what!?

よくわからんが変人が嫌ならこの際ヒーローになっちゃえばよくないか!?
I don't really get it, but if you don't want to be a weirdo, then isn’t it better to become a hero instead!?
よくねェ...
no...
そうだよ！スーパーパワーをいかしてヒーローになるんだよ！
Oh yeah! Use the superpowers and become a hero!
例えばそう...
For example...

この星の銀行強盗をやっつけるとかして！
You can defeat the bank robbers of this planet or something!
銀行強盗だ――――――ッ
It’s a bank robbery!!!!!!!

コレもアンタの仕業なワケ...？
So you did this too...?
なワケないだろう......
That's impossible......

きっとヒーローを育てようとしている俺に神が力を貸して下さったのだ
Seeing that I was trying to raise a hero, God must have lent his power.
神様が犯罪を起こしたと!?
Are you saying that God commited a crime!?

とにかくこんなチャンスはないな＊
Anyways, we'll never get another chance like this＊
キミのスーパーパワーで事件を解決しよう＊
Let's use your superpowers and solve this crime＊
はあ!?
HUH!?

おいっそれでもヒーローを目指す男か!? {normal text}
キミ {small text}
Hey! How can a man aiming to be a hero say that!?
You
誰がヒーローを目指す男か！
Who's that man aiming to be a hero?!
つ――か高校生の俺は逆にそんなのになりたくねーんだよ！
Besides, high schoolers like me don't want to be anything like that!
幼稚園児じゃあるまいし!!
I'm not some kindergartner!!
さっきから！ {handwritten text}
From before!

ヒーローの何がイヤだと言うのだっ

If something like that actually exists, it's just LAME!!

あと危険だろ！
And it's dangerous!

おい犯人達人質とって立てこもってるぽいぞ！
Hey, it looks like the criminals got hostages and are hiding out!

どーやらクラスメイトが巻き込まれていたみたいだな
looks like one of your classmates got dragged into it.

これで益々立ち上がらざるをえない状況ってワケだ
Now with this, you really do have to rise to the occasion.
関係ないね
It's got nothing to do with me.

pg 30/354
何度も言うが...
I'll repeat myself...
俺は目立つのが大嫌いなんだよ！
I really hate standing out!
!!! {Sparrow}

こんな所にシャシャリ出るなんてもっての他！警察に任せりゃいいだけの話...
Stepping out uninvited in a place like this is just dumb! All you gotta do is leave it to the police.

やれやれ...
Oh man...
ホントに困った生物だよ思春期の地球人てのは...
teen Earthlings are so difficult...

人を助ける力があっても使おうとしない...
Even if they have the power to save someone, they won't try to use it...
それで本当に平気なのだろうか...
And still guilt-free...?

椿龍太......君の言う通り...
Tsubaki Ryuta......as you say...


pg 31/355
この現実の世界ではいい歳した大人がもしヒーローを気取った場合...
In this real world, if a full-grown adult were to act like he's a hero...
変人の一種に見られたり
He'd be seen as a kind of weirdo,
少なくとも普通の目で見られなくなるとしよう
or at least he wouldn't be looked at normally anymore.
？ああ
? Yeah...

でもよ
But hey

変人の何が悪い？
What's bad about a weirdo?
!? {Ryuta}

その『変人』は
That "weirdo"


pg 32/356
何か悪いコトをしたか？
Has he done something wrong?

――――！ {Ryuta}

悪いコトは何もしてない者と
Between someone who has done nothing wrong
悪いコトはしてないのにそれを冷たい目で見る空気...
and those giving cold looks to that inncocent one...

悪いのはどっちなんだろうな...
Which is worse, I wonder...
ぐっ...!!!
Grrr...!!!

この問い...この感覚...覚えがあるぞ...!?
This question... This feeling... It's familiar...!?

そうだコレは...学級代表を決める時...
That's right, it was...that time we were deciding on the class representative...


pg 33/357
いいかげん決めちゃいたいんだが... {normal text}
今日こそ {little text}
I kind of want to get this decided already...
Hopefully today
誰か学級代表やりたい者いないか―――?
Isn't there anyone who wants to be Class Representative?

し―――ん {SFX}
silence------

いつの頃からだろう「学級代表に立候補するなんて目立つし恥ずかしいコト＝ありえないヤツ」
From when was it that this "volunteering for class representative stands out and is embarrassing=only freaks do it"
そういう空気が教室に充満するようになったのは...だが実際よく考えてみれば...
kind of atmosphere spread throughout the classroom...? But really, when I actually think about it...
単に色々とエライコトなんじゃないのか？少なくとも悪いコトでは絶対ないハズなのに...
In a lot of ways isn't it actually an honorable thing? At the very least, it's definitely not supposed to be a bad thing...

「なぜ......!?」そう思ったコトがあった...
"Why......!?" I've wondered that before...

変人だの何だのは単に他人(ひと)の目他人(ひと)がつけた名だ...
Being a weirdo or whatever is just in someone else's eyes, a name that someone else gives...

｢本質｣には関係はない
It's got nothing to do with "true nature."
ドクン {SFX}
shocks
｢本質...｣
"True nature..."

I hear it grows if you use the superpowers a lot.
サイコーじゃん {handwritten text}

罰ゲームかよ!!
Like a penalty?!!

つーかこの状態でさっき俺カッコつけてたのか...
I mean, I was acting all cool looking like this just now...?
ヒーローというより変態っぽい {small text}
It's more like I'm a creepo than a hero.
はあ―― {SFX?}
sigh—

ツバキ...
Tsubaki...

その花キレイだな...本当に
That flower is pretty...really.
やっぱ変だよこの人も...
This person's weird too, after all...

...Thank you
ありがとうな...
for saving me...

人を助けて感謝されるのも悪くない {Narration Box}
Being thanked for helping people ain't that bad,


pg 47/371
この時椿龍太は素直にそう思った {Narration Box}
by this time, Tsubaki Ryuta honestly thought that.
お...お前こそまさかあんな行動に出るとはな...
Y...you too, I never thought you'd take that sort of action...
正直かなり見直したぜ...オレこの花やるよ
To be honest, I now have a better opinion of you...I'll give you this flower.

こうして―― {Narration Box}
By this....
あ
Ah!

私達結婚してしまったぞ
We just got married.
!!?はい？
!!?What?

銀星人の女の子に花をあげるのは結婚をする時だけなんだ...
The only time you give a flower to a Silver Planet girl is when you get married...
しかも受け取った時点で結婚成立なのに今受けとってしまった...
moreover, by accepting it the marriage becomes official, and I just accepted it...
うっかり {slanted text}
