[side text: While the magazine is in the mood of celebration, the main character seems to have been captured!!]

White Man: Ahhh~, so you must be Yukimura Tokine-san, huh?

Black Man(Yashiro): I am Yashiro from Urakai’s Prosecution Office, Special Investigation Team.

White Man(Yuugami): And I am Yuugami. //
I would like to hear, in more details, about you killing the God last night.// Could you please come with us right now?

(p2-p3)
[side text: When someone precious is in danger, and you couldn’t do anything about it.
That, is the most painful of them all.]

Chapter 206: Special Investigation Team

(p4)
Yoshi: Hurray…//
Did you see that?! My space-shuttering-killing-move in Tornado style!// A splendid closure! / Clos….
SFX: spins, spins

SFX: topples onto the floor

Yoshi: My eyes…./ My eyes are spinning~~~…
SFX: dizzy
Tokiko: ……..

(p5)
SFX: Whew
Tokiko: Although the process turns out pretty dangerous, / it’s good enough for a beginner. // 60 points.
Yoshi: (60 points…?)
Tokiko: Leave the details to me. Take a short rest.

Yoshi: Hmph~~ Old lady is sure damn strict.
Underling: But you did it so well!
SFX: claps, claps

Yoshi: Huh? Where’s Mamezou?
Underling: Ahh. It looks like he has returned to his place.//
But why do I feel…. that somehow in the end, I’ve been greatly lectured…?
SFX: Sigh…
(Mamezou: All would be destroyed without a single trail.)
Yoshi: ?

SFX: flaps

Yoshi: (Huh? / Tokine’s Shikigami…?)

(p6)
Tokine has been taken away by Urakai’s Prosecution Office, Special Investigation Team?!

Shikigami: “It’s just a simple inquisition./ I would only be back by the evening so please don’t worry about me.”/ That’s all.

Yoshi: Special Investigation Team is…?
Underling: Urakai’s Prosecution Office, Special Investigation Team is a place that handles unique cases that would have a special impact on the society…//
But this is strange.// It’s far too early.//
The fastest speed for Urakai to submit the report would have been this morning.// But they didn’t even wait till the case in Higadou is properly handled,/ and they’ve already made a move…

(p7)
Yoshi: But, you don’t say that she was caught, right?
Underling: Eh…Well, in this case…//
Right now,// I’ve been here since last night, but I have no contact with anybody from the Investigation Team at all.//
If they made this move, // I believe they will charge not for “The God Murder”, but in the name of “The Shinyuuchi Hunting”.//
If they are truly accusing for the case of “The God Murder”,/ would they rather put Hidagou aside, which is the starting of everything, and move on to the Yukimura’s straight away?

Tokiko: Nonetheless, it’s too despotic of them to take someone away without the permission of the head./ Somehow, I have to defend.

(p8)
Yoshi: (Tokine…// It’s because of me that she…)

Tokiko: You. Listen.
SFX: surprised

Tokiko: Don’t do/ anything silly.

(p9)
Underling: (Sigh….Taking 3 people on the same time is exhausting…)

Sen: Yoshimori!

Yoshi: Kagemiya!

(p10)
By the time we’ve arrived, she was already taken away…//
Sen: She wasn’t treated as a criminal, /but from the words of Auntie, things don’t look good either.//
Although she was brought away for inquisition…/ something is still fishy.//
I heard that the Investigation Team are made up of elites,// which also means that the way they handle might be harsh…//
(If the prophecy is true, then this is the calamity brought by that God…//Maybe this is the key that connects to more calamities…)//
(And then Karasumori will be destroyed ultimately--------)// (Had it happened already?// But yesterday’s condition looks different from the image I’ve seen. )

(p11)
Sen: …….//
Why/ are you not asking , “Where is The Prosecution Office?!”,/ or something like that?

Yoshi: …..// If I asked, then I definitely wouldn't be sitting here and doing nothing… //
What if I did anything silly…? Wouldn’t I make it worse for Tokine…?//
Anyway, Even if I go, I can't do much./ Problems would arise immediately too…// And in the end, everyone would call me an idiot and…

(p12)
Yoshi: KYA----------------------------!!//
What are you…//
Sen: Of course I know that kind of stuff!/ If you want to go, just GO! MO----------RON!! (Stop dilly-dallying!)

Yoshi: Why are you so pissed?!// Will you help me if I said that?!

Sen: Huh?

(Tokiko: Borrow more of the intelligence and the strength from the ones who are by your side.)

SFX: Grabs

(p13)
Yoshi: I want to go.// I want to go and rescue Tokine now.

Sen: ~~~~~~~~~~~~// (So direct…)//
Alright./ I will think of some way or another.

(p14)
Yoshi: RE…REALLY?!
Sen: But it’s impossible to go right away./ We need to prepare first.//
I’m tellin’ ya./ I am the cautious type.// So if the preparation and the investigation ain’t enough, / I won’t make a move. //
So don’t put too much hope on me.
Yoshi: Uh!// Uh!// Thank you, Kagemiya!

Sen: Mo--ron!//It’s too early for you to say that.//
(I believe it will be dangerous,//but if I don’t do anything, I won’t be able to break the chain to the calamity…)// (So…it’s worth giving it a try…for the very least!)

(p15)
Yashiro: Pardon us but it’s the rule.// It might be narrow but please bear with it a little more.

Tokine: Sure.

Yuugami: Yashiro-san.// Aren’t you a little too friendly towards that lady?

(p16)
Yuugami: This is a God murder.// Fufu. Yes, it’s the God Murder.//
Must be a lady with too much guts to spare.
Yashiro: Stop it, Yuugami.

Yuugami: Moreover, Yashiro-san…/ When did the Kekkaishi hunt for the Shinyuuchi…

Yashiro: Enough. Stop spouting things that are unrelated to the case.
Yuugami: Aww~// I believe I have the right to say whatever I want.//
After all, my old home…// is related to the Shinyuuchi Hunting.//
Oh~~~/ We are about to see it soon.

(p17-p18)
*{T.N=Very nicely drawn scenery}

(p19)
Yuugami: The island in the middle of that lake,// is our headquarter of Urakai’s Prosecution Office…//
Its alias is,//
“*The Guillotine Island”

[side text: This island that is isolated to the rest of the world…What is it indeed?!]

*{T.N=I usually stick to the Japanese name for the better sounding. But there is an obvious meaning to the naming, so I will use the English name for this.}
