Score 2: Wanted

Pg 2

It looks like he’s better now that he’s had some water… / but he hasn’t eaten anything!?// tsk
Hey Nai! / Don’t move!!

If you still want water, it’s there! // I’m going out to find food so just stay there and rest ‘til I’m back!

Pg 3

Karoku…

He’s not coming today… // why?

A red puddle…

This…

“The Circus captured him”

Wait…Gareki… / Where is the Circus…?

Pg 4

Heh heh… this is the most I’ve ever collected!!

I think it makes up for the trouble I went through today…
G: Hey old man I’ll take this
Store owner: Hey Gareki, long time no see! Today’s special is Lagis
G: Ok that too / and which meat is the highest in nutritional value here?

Store owner: What, did you knock up a girl or somethin’!?
Text: How many times did ya do her?
G: Don’t be stupid // gimme some meat!
Text: you horny old man

Oh boy // Come o~~n! The Circus just appears out of nowhere, alright? // We’re telling you what we know so pay us for the info! // THIS is all you have with value?
N: NO!

Pg 5

Give it back!!
Hey!? // Whaddaya doin’!?

Shit…a security operative…! // wait!!

Are you okay? / huh? This bracelet…!?

Wha!? YOU…!?

Pg 6

Are you an idiot!?

Young officer: Of course I’m embarrassed that I thought the boy was “Circus” just from that bracelet…
Old officer: Where would you find a Circus member that can’t control his own bracelet!? / This is a counterfeit made for fraudulent purposes!!

But I…

Began this analysis just in case // If I didn’t see this data, I would have thought the same thing but…

What...are these numbers…!? // No…the systems here can’t possibly be altered to produce results like this by some fake…

This kind of data can be created only by a limited set of information / however, that boy cannot possibly be Circus, so we should report to the superiors about this… // …Preceptor Jing?

Pg 7

Jing: Did you tell anyone else about this?
Young officer: Uh no, I though I should tell you first, sir…

…I see

They brought me here when I said I wanted to go to Circus… // Is this Circus…?

Can I see Karoku…?

Karo…

Pg 8

Wait…this is the guy from earlier…? // A red…puddle?

Hold this

You’re the one who / shot this man

Pg 9

A pathetic brat like you is not worthy of that bracelet / I’m going to use it efficiently

I’m scared…

If I sell that thing I’ll make enough to be free from debt / looks like luck has finally come my way // And now I’m going to use this gun with your fingerprints, that I’ve taken back from you to avenge my subordinate’s death!

This guy… // he’s creepy…!!

Pg 10

He ran away…oh well

It’s me / My subordinate has been killed by the suspect he was interrogating. I have the gun used on hand
My men can catch a pesky kid like that right away…

Permission to shoot him if he makes any threatening moves!

It’s revenge on our comrade // shoot him!!

Pg 11

That…

RUNT
Text: I’ll kill him

Pg 12

Oh boy
Text: ahhh…

It’s been sealed

They work fast

Pg 13

This Mine woman is proof of involvement… / a near miss

Yes / …huh?

Ah… / I understand

Karoku might have been there… // will that scary guy still be there if I go back…but I have to…

Pg 14

He—y you / Didn’t I tell you not to move?

I saved you and you were just going to leave? // I was out getting you food you know? / Don’t you think snubbing someone who was nice to you is a crime?

Hey say something // … oh

I was choking him

By the way, what it this “wanted” sign?
Text: did you kill someone?

You dumbass

Pg 15

They took / your bracelet!?

I…

I wanted to find Karoku / I want to see him… // I was trying to go to this place called Circus

I

I want to see him

Sorry Gareki
G: Just to tell you...

Pg 16

You’re going to die early in life

You got completely set up // There are plenty of people that will use you in order to get what they need!

Don’t keep blindly trusting everyone you meet // and become dirty enough to protect yourself!

What am I saying to this kid // what am I saying when I’m thinking of using him too

Pg 17

Ok! I got it // I’ll become filthy like you Gareki!

“Dirty” in the clever sense you MORON

Change out of those clothes they gave you!! // We’re going to get it back

Your treasure

Pg 18

Preceptor

G: Him? // Wait 5 minutes after I’ve gone inside // then press that button and go hide in that place I just told you / don’t get it wrong
N: O…ok

5 minutes…

5 minutes?
Text: …what’s that?

Well well, I’m so flattered that a young kid like you // would come all the way to thank us for helping you / that is what we do you know

Pg 19

I’m so glad you’re even considering becoming a security operative as a career choice, I can give you the full tour…
Text: I’m so proud of you
Haha…

What the hell is that idiot doing..it’s been at least 20 minutes…we’re almost done with our tour!!

What / an explosion!?

So late!!

Sorry, I need you to find your way out alone!!

Well, I was able to use this time to memorize the layout and map of this place…

Ha…// Haaa

Pg 20

What the hell is this!? // It’s was just the noise and smoke? / A prank!?


There’s no sign of anyone

This room is pointlessly big

No one should be back for a while because of that blast…
*Beep beep*

There’s no way I’m going near an explosion, how dangerous
Back already!!
Text: Don’t you have work to do!?

Pg 21

Phew

That’s…

Hey // We’re leaving, slowpoke

So about this Karoku guy

Pg 22

You found Karoku!?

Nope
Text: Dunno who he is anyway
That place isn’t even Circus, it’s the security sector

I think you’re confused but “Circus” isn’t a place, it’s a group name of some sort! // That bracelet of yours is apparently their “ID” // that means there's a high possiblity that this "Karoku" is a member of this group

So how about it?
Text: I don’t understand

We’ve been running around so I haven’t asked you yet, but why are you looking for this “Karoku” in the first place? // I heard that Mine woman was saying something about your brother but…

Pg 23

Well, I guess it’s not that uncommon not to know your parents…but what?
Karoku didn’t come as he usually does so I got lonely and went to pick him up

N: And there was a large red puddle and little puddles leading all the way to the ocean // and that’s where I found the bracelet
G: A red puddle?

Do you mean “blood”?
Text: Don’t you know blood!?
Doesn’t that mean he got involved in something / and was kidnapped?

Otherwise, he was dragged to the ocean and was dumped… // wait wait, doesn’t that mean he’s dead?

I’m starting to think Karoku isn’t part of Circus...
Will this kid be of use to me going forward? // Of should I just abandon him here?

Pg 24

But if I abandon him here things will end up going according to the Preceptor’s plans

That would piss me off
Text: I don’t want to benefit scum like him

Even if the bracelet is real or fake, even Karoku’s existence

I can’t be certain of Nai’s value until it is determined by Circus

Nai, listen ok?

You are the proof of the preceptor’s crime / no matter what you do you’re going to get killed / your voice won’t reach the superiors // we have to avoid the security operatives / and get to the superior Circus to clear your name

Pg 25

In order to do that we have to get to a larger city and move from there

That preceptor is planning to sell the bracelet tomorrow / we’ll retrieve it then! // Then we have to immediately leave the city

What about you Gareki?
Huh?

I’ll be lonely without you // Gareki nice

Pg 26

Text: NICE PERSON

Gareki text: getting goosebumps
Nai text: come with me want you to come

If you want me to come, I have to benefit from this
Text: nice person
Benefit?

I’m sayin’ give me something // it can be that bracelet / when we get it back, just give it to me
I’ve been planning that from the start anyway

But / that… // It’s Karoku’s

Of course, I’ll have it only if Karoku says I can have it
He’s probably already dead // if he says no, I can say it’s a worthy reward for saving this kid

Pg 27

Yea

Yeah

The exchange is // in the 51st storage 2530

I can finally be free of a poor life

When I make all this money I’ll divorce that wife of mine too…

You…!!

Pg 28

Wait!!

I have to contact my men…no I can’t! // If the security operative come here, the buyer will think I set him up and run away

I’ll kill him myself

It’s that guy

I’m scared // Gareki!

Pg 29

Are you Jing from the security sector?
What…!?

What are you doing here / didn’t you know the boss is already here?
Uh…

Are you breaking the promise?
No, I’m not so wait. I’ll head that way now!

Fool

Good luck

Pg 30

Hey you can come out now

Hm? / What? // You cold?
Text: so pathetic

N: SO SCARED…

Here

Oh

Pg 31

Thank you!

It’s been 5 minutes since he ran away // he should have arrived by now

Gareki?
Text: what are you doing?
Hmm?

I thought I’d play him his requiem since I’m so nice

Text on device: alarm settings
Alarm sound setting: ON
The alarm will sound in 1 minute

Pg 32

Wait…

Wait a second! That can’t be… // I put it in here…

Making excuses // you don’t have anything do you?

No… / this is…

Pg 33

A siren…? I see now / you security operatives tried to set us up with bait

No…!
You set us up didn’t you?

No I don’t….

Nai! // what are you doing, this way!!

Pg 34

You’re so slow, if this leaves without us we’ll have to wait another 12 hours!!
Text: Sorry

Huh?

Wha!? It’s leaving!!

Go through the window!!

Pg 35

Mama why didn’t the doors open on the train? It left without us?
Maybe something happened…

Emergency call on E31! Someone has broken into the cleaning room!!

Someone has hi-jacked the train!!

I wonder if I can see him // see Karoku…
