Chapter 18 - A cold equation

118-

rio: ...

119-

2
ayumu: ... Are you praying to god?

4
rio: ...
rio: God does not
rio: Really exist...

120-

1
ayumu: ...

3
ayumu: ... Calling me here...

4
ayumu: ... Is it okay for you to go on a stroll out of the hospital?

5
rio: It's not
rio: I need to rest for 2 weeks

6
rio: But
rio: It's not a situation where I can sleep in bed

121-

2
rio: ... We don't have much time

3
rio: Shall I explain the rules of the game?

4
kousuke: ... The idea of the game is

5
kousuke: To somehow gain control over the two points
kousuke: Which are you, Jou-chan, and the tape that are in different places in the city

122-

1
kousuke: Of course we can interfere
kousuke: It's not that hard

2
kousuke: So
kousuke: I'll give this to you, Jou-chan

3
hiyono: ... What is this?

4
kousuke: It's a key to deactivate a bomb in a certain place
kousuke: Of course if you can't deactivate it within the time limit, it'll go boom

5
hiyono: ... Where is this "certain place"...?

123-

1
kousuke: ...

2
kousuke: Narumi-otouto's neck...

3
rio: Although it's small, it has enough power to blow your head to pieces

4
rio: The time of the bombing according to my clock is "14:30" exactly
rio: Please synchronize your clock
rio: You get the choker without the deactivation key
rio: if you'll try to get it off forcibly, it'll just blow up

124-

1
rio: We've given the deactivation key to Hiyono-san
rio: If you meet with her in the time limit, you'll be saved

2
rio: But
rio: If while on the game you involve the police or seek help from other people
rio: Your choker will blow up that instant with the explosion switch I have
rio: Well, then

3
rio: The game starts at 13:30, and in the same time
rio: We'll release Hiyono-san

4
rio: We don't mind letting her move freely
ayumu: ... So that means we shall fight fairly with a 2 on 2?

5
rio: ... And we won't try to catch the girl until 10 minutes after the release...

125-

1
rio: After that, we'll move to take Hiyono-san's freedom again

2
rio: And if we'll get the tape in our hands...
rio: We'll won't even hesitate to kill you

3
ayumu: Because it's allowed to interrupt the opponent in achieving their goal
ayumu: That's obvious

126-

1
rio: Take this cellular phone to connect Hiyono-san and us
rio: Please ask her location with that

3
rio: Because there are 4 numbers in the memory
rio: You can call the opponents too

4
rio: But you can freely choose if you receive the opponent's call

on phone:
No. 004
Yuizaki Hiyono
690XXXXXXXX

sound: Beep
sound: Beep

5
ayumu: It's really kind
rio: Because it's a fight in a wide field

6
rio: If we won't have phones we won't be able to make strategies and tactics
ayumu: ...

127-

1
ayumu: I'll go take the tape
ayumu: In the same time if I'll meet with her
ayumu: I can do that in a place close to the tape

2
It's obvious that while we do that they'll get close to us

3
ayumu: There are more chances for being attacked...
... But, if we'll meet at a far place, I won't make it to the tape

4
If I'll take the tape and after that meet her while shaking off the opponents

5
I might not make it in time...

128-

1
sign: --- No matter what I do, I walk on a tight rope...
ayumu: ... I'm sorry to do it all of a sudden, but

2
ayumu: Can I confirm she's safe?

3
rio: --- Please do

129-

1
hiyono: Narumi-san?!

2
ayumu: Yo
ayumu: I'll save you, stupid girl

3
ayumu: Pretty soon, I'll call again
ayumu: Good bye
hiyono: Huh
hiyono: Wai...

4
hiyono: That's all?!
hiyono: What if I was hurt or maybe had been tortured---
sound: Beep

130-

1
hiyono: It was horrible of him just now!!

2
kousuke: ... I think that Jou-chan's personality is horrible too

4
rio: ... So

6
rio: We have our goal, where is the tape?

131-

1
ayumu: The post office
rio: ... Huh?

2
ayumu: The tape was mailed to a post where it'll be strictly sealed
ayumu: The address is my house

3
ayumu: It'll be delivered today at 14:00
rio: !

4
ayumu: No matter how faster than me you'll get to the tape
ayumu: You won't be able to snatch it if it isn't delivered

132-

1
ayumu: Because it's an apartment house
ayumu: All of the rooms' mail boxes are located near the manager's room

2
ayumu: That is the key to the mail box

3
ayumu: It is used to protect our privacy and to prevent crimes
rio: ...

4
rio: ... You have thought about that
ayumu: Didn't you expect it?
ayumu: I've given you a hint

5
ayumu: If I'll die and you'll fail getting the tape
ayumu: Nee-san* will check the suspicious mail items
* Big sister, Ayumu calls his sister-in-law that way
ayumu: And it'll get to the police for sure

6
ayumu: --- By the way

133-

1
ayumu: I've expected
ayumu: I'll be attached with such a bomb
rio: ...

2
... With this timing becomes more important than speed with taking the tape

3
It doesn't matter how fast Kousuke-kun can get close to Narumi's house
Otouto-san's disadvantage disappear

4
... This key is a bottleneck too
Although there are ways to open the box without the key, they take time, and there is the risk of being found by those who live there

5
Hereupon, I'll have to move too because I possess it...
rio: This loss is big

134-

2
rio: ... It's fine
rio: With that the scene have been arranged

5
kousuke: If you don't want Narumi-Otouto to die, run fast

135-

1
hiyono: You won't catch me a second time

136-

2
rio: It starts

137-

1
ayumu: Where are you now?
hiyono: Well...

2
hiyono: To my right I see a river
hiyono: And there is an electric train railway bridge, so...
hiyono: I'm 400 meter south from Shumari station!

3
ayumu: --- My, my, I'm in the church neighborhood in the outskirts
ayumu: It's more than 2 kilometer away
hiyono: Narumi-san! We need to deactivate the bomb on your neck first!

4
hiyono: If you'll die, you'll lose everything!!
hiyono: Just willingly let them have the tape
ayumu: I can't do that
ayumu: If we don't completely win this match, it's meaningless

138-

1
ayumu: So the tape takes priority
hiyono: Huh, you're in quite strong spirits

2
hiyono: Although you were scared up until now

3
ayumu: Hey, I want to get that off quickly too, but
ayumu: Because of you I can't

4
hiyono: ... Yes?

5
ayumu: You've done too much
ayumu: We're already marked
ayumu: it's better if I’ll be the one to die

139-

1
ayumu: If after the game
ayumu: We'll snatch the tape, you'll be killed on the spot
hiyono: ...

2
ayumu: Worry about yourself more than about me
ayumu: The tape comes first

3
ayumu: My neck is getting chilly but we'll turn to the deactivation right in the end
hiyono: ...

4
hiyono: ... So what shall I do?

5
ayumu: You shouldn't be caught, that's first

140-

1
ayumu: Hold on until I retrieve the tape

2
ayumu: You said you're close to Shumari station?
ayumu: So quickly go to the station and get on the train
hiyono: So the train?

3
ayumu: Because it's the safest to move by train
ayumu: Because there are so many people, he can't do something violent
ayumu: He can't quickly follow you from the place where you were held

4
ayumu: You should have a chance to shake off of him

5
ayumu: Just go back and forth like that
ayumu: In 14:10 get back to the Shumari station
ayumu: We'll do the delivery of the deactivation key in the 20 minutes left

141-

1
hiyono: I understand
hiyono: At 14:10
ayumu: But it's a risky time interval to think about shaking them off

2
ayumu: Also
ayumu: Choose the train you take
ayumu: If you choose poorly, you won't make it back for the time of the explosion

3
hiyono: I understand
hiyono: I'll come back on time for sure

4
ayumu: I'll give you more instructions when I'll retrieve the tape
ayumu: Bye, take care (sound: Beep)

5
hiyono: ...
sound: Beep

142-

2
rio: ... I can generally read Otouto-san's idea

3
rio: Okay?
rio: Otouto-san, being aware of the danger
rio: Will leave the delivery of the deactivation key to the second half and will give priority to retrieving the tape

4
rio: Kousuke-kun, run to the tape without hesitation too
kousuke: OK!

5
kousuke: What about the mail box's key?

143-

1
rio: By seeing the key and the Pin cylinder lock
rio: You'll probably be able to open it with lock picking

2
kousuke: I've that much technique but I've 20 seconds
kousuke: There is a danger of being questioned---
rio: Do it somehow

3
rio: Also I don't have time to hand in the key
rio: In that time, I've to completely destroy Otouto-san's chances of deactivating the bomb

4
rio: If I won't do that, we won't be able to win!
rio: --- Anyway, just don't let your guard down

5
kousuke: Okay
kousuke: I understand

144-

1
rio: ...

3
rio: First I'll go to Shumari station---

4
sign: Shumari station

5
hiyono: A down train* that stops in every station
* Meaning going out of Tokyo

6
hiyono: It's in the 4th platform...

145-

2
A place where he can safely leave
Hiyono-san for the first half of the game...

3
That's will be inside a moving train---

4
rio: If she'll succeed to run away here once, it'll be hard to catch her

5
rio: Otouto-san will definitely let Hiyono-san come here

6
hiyono: !!

146-

2
They read the fact I'm coming to the station---?!

147-

1
hiyono: Shall I go outside?
hiyono: But there is a danger that Asadzuki-san is waiting in the exit...

4
Hmmmm...
Which train shall I take---

148-

2
hiyono: ... Ouch

4
hiyono: ... Ah

5
sound: Ping
announcement: The train at the second platform is departing

149-

3
hiyono: !!

5
sign: Express Train

150-

1
rio: ... Excuse me

2
rio: What is the closest time that the people who got on this express train
rio: Can get back here?

3
train man: ?... Ah...

4
train man: ... Well...
train man: Because its next stop is in 15 minutes

5
train man: Even if they use the fastest from there to get back here
train man: It'll be 14:31
train man: But the arrival time will probably be sooner

6
train man: ... Something more?
rio: No
rio: I just wanted to confirm it

151-

1
rio: Thank you very much

2
... While the train is moving, it's a jail
I think that with that they don't have enough time to deliver the deactivation key

3
rio: But even without the key he still has a way to live

4
rio: I need to destroy it

5
hiyono: Sorry, Narumi-san!
hiyono: I was pushed into a different train!

152-

1
hiyono: I've heard from the conductor that even by Taxi I'll be after 14:30!
hiyono: I won't make it to the explosion!
hiyono: What shall I do?!

2
hiyono: Like that the deactivation key will!
hiyono: And narumi-san's neck will---
ayumu: Calm down

3
ayumu: I've expected that to happen
hiyono: Huh?

4
ayumu: I'm glad you could get on
ayumu: If you are on the train, you can't be attacked in the game

5
ayumu: Now when I'll secure the tape, your safety is already guaranteed
ayumu: I'm glad about that
hiyono: More important than me, what about you!
hiyono: Like this, I won't be able to hand over the deactivation key...

153-

1
hiyono: ... Narumi-san

2
hiyono: So you think that if I'm saved, it's okay for you to die...?

3
ayumu: ...

4
hiyono: Please answer me!!

5
ayumu: Because unlike my brother, I'm stupid
ayumu: ... If I can't do that much, I can't protect anyone

6
hiyono: ... I...

154-

1
hiyono: I am not
hiyono: Happy or anything about that...!!

2
ayumu: ...
ayumu: ... Rest assure

3
ayumu: It's not yet decided I'm dead
ayumu: I still have a way to stay alive
ayumu: I've also prepared for it

4
ayumu: ... But I'm
ayumu: Putting all my luck...
ayumu: And courage on it...
