Kokou no Hito 37

The savage mountain, K2. The second highest peak in the world, and what is called the most difficult. A mountain so cold, distant, and brutal, no human name can fit it. And so it is only known by a letter and number marking its place.

Workers: Good job todaaay.

Mori: I can't.
I've got shopping to do.

The guy who even during work only drinks tap water?
The ultra-cheapskate, Mori!!?
Manager: I-Is Mori here!?
T-T-There's a customer coming outside!!!
Mori: ?

Awesome... An S-class Benz.
Ninomiya: Nice to meet you, Mori-kun.
My name is Ninomiya.
Workers: Eh?
Ninomiya? That mountain climber...?
SFX: Gah
Kurosawa: Come on.
It's a 30,000 yen full course at Akasaka!!!

Page 106:
Ninomiya: Come, get in.
Mori: ......
I'm going home.
Kurosawa: !!
H-Hey, hang on. You haven't got anything important to do anyhow.
If you're worried about money, forget about it. Today's Ninomiya-san's treat. TREAT!!
SFX: Bah
Mori: I do have something to do.
My climbing shoes have gotten old so I'm going to buy new ones now.
Ninomiya: ......
Kurosawa: Come here a second!!
SFX: Gui

Page 107:
Kurosawa: Today is the important distribution of Oonishi's mementos.
I can't let you say you're not coming.
Someone: --Come, this way.

どうぞおかけください
Ninomiya: Please have a seat.
[This was a bitch to redraw. Especially with the seam going down the table and through the doorframe which is drawn to be asymmetrical.]

Page 110:
Waiter: I'll take your bag.
Mori: .........
It's all right.
This is mine, after all.
場をわきまえろ
Kurosawa: Hey! Where do you think this is?! Be aware of your surroundings!
Hurry and give that thing to him.
Ninomiya: Well, it really makes no difference.
Come, sit.
Waiter: Ninomiya-sama.
Today's wine list.

Page 111:
Ninomiya: Mori-kun, what wine will you have?
Mori: Eh?
Ninomiya: No need to by shy.
What would you like?
Mori: I don't drink.
Kurosawa (on page): Ah, geeze...
Ninomiya: ...I see, a wise choice for a mountaineer.
SFX: Patan
Then I will have mineral water, as well.
Could we have "Courmateur" Mont-blanc's melted ice water?

Tokyo Metropolitan Area Minato Ward Roppongi
Ninomiya: I am Ninomiya Yuusuke of the climbing team 14 Mountain Mountaineering Association.
Mori: Climbing team...
Ninomiya: The truth is I'm an old friend of Ninomiya-kun.
And was invited to the climbing on the second anniversary of his death.
At that time I fell in love with your climbing the moment I saw it.
And I asked Kurosawa-san, here, to have us meet.
The reason why our mountaineering association bears the name 14 Mountain
of course is to denote the 14 8000 meter peaks across the world.

Page 113:
Ninomiya: Have you ever had the sensation of the elevation 8000 meter world?
Mori: ........
No.
Ninomiya: Well, that's understandable.
There are no such mountains in Japan, after all.
So what do you say, Mori-kun?
Will you try climbing with us?
Our goal is what is said to be the hardest mountain in the world...
酸素量3分の1
With one third the oxygen, and that sky is close to space, you're wrapped in an endless dark blue that's nearly black.
The closest place to heaven in this world----
SFX: HYOOO

Page 114-115:
Ninomiya: The K2 Eastern Face
Elevation 8611 meters. It has produced many dead, the sheer ice wall of the "savage mountain" that is untrodden by man----!!!

Page 116:
Ninomiya: Strange, don't you think? With humans now stretching their hands even towards Mars
there are actually still places in this world that we have not set foot on...
Waiter: -------The main dish, sir.
SFX: TOOOON
Mori: Sorry. I'll pick it up.
Ninomiya: It's all right.
You don't need to pick it up.

Page 117:
In places like this, boys are changed into something new.
You're allowed to just concentrate on enjoying the meal before you.
Each person has a role,
and each one accomplished their respective work
and they are then able to complete high quality work.
This is also so with mountains.
歴史的な偉業を為し遂げたいなら多くの仲間の力を合わせる必要がある
In order to accomplish historical exploits, the united strengths of many comrades is needed.

アタック隊
want to recruit you for my 14 Mountain Mountaineering Association's attack party----

Page 118:
Kurosawa: Aren't you glad, Mori!!?
I'm sure Oonishi would be glad, too!!
一生懸命
He tried with all his might so you wouldn't be alone, after all.
Well, this is what I meant by Oonishi's remaining memento.
Ninomiya: Well then, cheers to our new member...
Mori: -----...
What a beautiful hand...
What you've talked about... I'm declining.
SFX: Su...

Page 119:
Kurosawa: HUH!?
What're you talking about!?
You're refusing this kind of great deal!?
SFX: Gon
Mori: This is my portion.
SFX: Suh
Kurosawa: !!!
Mori: I
want to do what I do my own way.

Page 120:
Kurosawa: W-wait, Mori!!!
I'm sorry, Ninomiya-san.
He didn't stay through all of high school.
He really doesn't have much common sense..........
Ninomiya: No, it's fine.
Doing what he does his own way.
He is certainly the talented person I am looking for.
