Guy: Morning.
Woman: Good morning.
Guy: Hey, uh, Mamine-san.
There's a get-together for young Diet Members tonight. Are you going?

Mamine: Today
I have enrichment lessons,
so...
Guy: Ah...
That's too bad...
Then, maybe the next one.
That's odd...
She... always says she has enrichment lessons. Just how much is that girl studying?
GUy 2: You idiot.
I guess maybe you haven't heard because you're new.
When you get invited to something and don't wanna go, saying you have enrichment lessons is a common excuse used the world over.
Guy: Huh? For real?

Page 42:
People: Prime Minister!
There's a joint plenary meeting of party members of both houses of the Diet the day after tomorrow, how do you plan to win over your opposition?

Page 43:
Reporter: Do you have any plans to withdraw your declaration for denuclearization?
Kasuga: Hey, hey, what stupidity are you spouting?
Once I've said something,
I never take it back!
Someone: The secretary general is waiting. Can you meet early?
Kasuga: No.
I'd like to study in the room for just 15 minutes...

Page 44:
SFX: ZAH ZAH
Someone: Minister, would you be able to meet with the Oda Faction before the general meeting?
Kasuga: No. I've had enough of them. Tell them to leave me alone.
SFX: ZAH
Sign: Representative Room

Page 45:
SFX: PIH
Mamine: Reception.
Kasuga: This is Kasuga,
could you come up to the representative room?
Mamine: I'm alone right now. Do you think it's not a problem to leave my post unattended?
Kasuga: Who cares about the reception desk? Come on up.

Page 46:
Riyon: Man...
what a gloomy woman...

Page 47:
Kasuga: You really helped me out during representative selection.
I was only able to win because of you.
Mamine: Prime Minister...
Earlier when you passed through the lobby, when you said the words "15 minutes" your steps became smaller and your speed decreased.
I took that as a signal to me...
was I correct in doing so?
Kasuga: Bright as usual.
Then I'll just be up-front.

Page 48:
Kasuga: Are you working with right now...?
Mamine: No.
No one.
And even if I had a handler, I would keep it secret.
Kasuga: I'll believe you.
And how is your health...?
Mamine: There are
no problems.

Page 49:
Kasuga: Do you have a boyfriend?
Mamine: I do not.
Kasuga: Given your powers of perception, I'd think you know why I called you here, yes?
Mamine: You're already...
a mass of suicidal desire, aren't you?

Page 50:
Mamine: Why do you so desire to rush to death?
Kasuga: Is that how it looks to you?
Mamine: Yes.
To me,
you, Prime Minister, are...

Page 51:
Mamine: a fallen glass that is about to his the floor.
Before long you'll break,
shatter into pieces,
and be left as nothing but scattered fragments.
Kasuga: Pretty good...
Things with form break,
and things with life die...

Page 52:
Kasuga: But I have still neither shattered nor died.
Mamine: Somehow, we're a bit similar.
In our senses...

Page 53:
Mamine: I also
do not have any attachment
to "life".
I understand that it is a difficult job.
First, one year...
I calculated it comparing to the reward for last time.
If you can give me this sum of money, I'll accompany you.

Page 54:
Mamine: Now then, excuse me.
I apologize for using even nine minutes of your precious time, Prime Minister.
Kasuga: I'll pay this money.
Come with me.
Mamine: Yes, sir.
Kasuga: With this declaration for "denuclearization" I made, how many are opposing it?
Mamine: About 24 people...
Among those, for how many do you have a grasp of their weakness?
Mamine: 8,
for certain.

Page 55:
Kasuga: Please get the details together for me by tonight.
Mamine: Understood.
Riyon: Old man,
how much is it?
Kasuga: Kukuku.
Riyon: Uhh...
Ten, hundred, thousand...
Kasuga: Now, now.

Page 56:
Riyon: 144,000,000 yen?!!
The hell? This is a total rip-off, ain't it?!
Kasuga: When she's serious, she can crush even a small political party easily.
This amount
is a considerable discount.
