Fubuki and the rest of my team were killed by an animal.

The animals here attack us because that's how they stay alive.

But you, you're a human!

FROST DESCENDS

That's ironic.

Hana ultimately died by drowning.

Which means she went out the same way her mother did.

That just goes to show you,

the sins of the parents fall upon the children.

Stop it.

Stop being so quick to pull out weapons all the time.

Relying on those things will only make you forget the value of human life!

We're not animals,

so why do you insist on killing fellow humans?

Precisely because they're human.

Animals don't try to deceive us or condemn us,

and they certainly don't laugh at our pain.

What was Ms. Hana so guilty of?

What did she ever do to you?

Are you going to keep blaming her father?

Hana's presence here causes disorder.

That's a problem.

Our team has both the duty and the right to fix that.

We're in charge of assuring that you all live in peace.

Anything disturbing that peace must be eliminated.

Then what about me?

Haru.

Why did you try to kill me?

For the same reason.

If Ryo hadn't tried to do it himself, then I would have.

You have no right!

Nobody has the right to kill others!

-Nobody! -Sure we do.

We have that right because we survived absolute hell to get here.

Nobody is watching over us anymore.

Nobody can judge us anymore.

Never disobey us again, or else we'll kill you too!

Back off!

Koruri.

These two are dangerous. Keep your distance.

Please tell me, Ango.

I saw you back there.

You were right next to Hana.

I need to know!

Did you push her into that river?

I didn't push her.

She backed away from me and fell in on her own.

But you didn't help her,

even though you were close by and had a rope at the ready.

I figured these two would be able to save her.

Even if I had thrown her the rope, I doubt she would have grabbed on to it.

You abandoned her.

You just watched.

First, Ryo cut her rope, and then you did nothing.

You're just like our professors back then.

We couldn't save the others.

We didn't make it in time.

There was nothing we could do.

And the professors just watched it all.

You're the same, Ango!

What you did was exactly the same!

Why?

You know how horrible it feels! You experienced it yourself!

How could you do this, Ango?

Because I know the consequences.

You just wanted to cover-up your crime.

Explain it any way you want, but you just wanted to hide your crime.

It makes me sick.

Madonna!

What crime did he commit?

The truth is, Ango tried to rape Hana yesterday.

Ayu!

You were ripping off her underwear.

If I hadn't come by when I did,

I'm sure that you would have had your way with her.

No... You're wrong.

That's not what I was doing. I was just...

So that's why Ms. Hana told me to keep all of the women safe.

That would also explain why she asked me to keep Kurumi safe.

You're a fucking scumbag!

No, that's not what...

Hana has a boyfriend, you know!

She was always so worried about him.

You're the worst! You asshole!

Is something wrong, Ms. Hana?

I'm just slacking off.

Digging that well is a lot of work.

He is surprisingly strong. Much more than his looks let on.

You sheltered kids can't compare.

Only a Koshien Tournament star pitcher has the mettle to survive alone for so long.

I don't think Ms. Hana would ask us to kill you for what you've done.

She knows that would only put her on the same level as you.

But if this is the true nature of humans,

then I'd rather be an animal.

Living with them is far better.

Let's not get too extreme.

We can handle this like reasonable people.

Yes, it's clear now that some of these folks aren't deserving of our pity.

Sakuya, are you crying?

To be honest, I really liked Hana.

But personal feelings shouldn't sway the outcome of a trial.

A trial?

It's only natural.

Those who commit crimes go to trial.

Roughly speaking, there's attempted rape,

assault, coercion, damage to property,

violation of the Firearms and Swords Control Law,

as well as unlawful assembly with dangerous weapons.

And let's not forget the murder of Mr. Izayoi.

Of course, there are no lawyers or judges,

and we can't scientifically analyze the evidence.

That naturally means more weight will be given to your confession.

Your motive was to prevent disorder.

Do you admit your guilt?

We must act swiftly to uphold the law.

Well, normally, this would call for something like imprisonment or exile.

What do you all want to do?

Then our team will just leave.

Let's go, guys.

I can't leave Ms. Kurumi behind.

Ban, are you kidding?

Ango.

If Ban is staying, then I'm doing the same.

Gengoro!

There's livestock here for me to care for, and other things I've left unfinished.

I'm still concerned about those bats too.

You must be kidding, Gengoro!

Let's get out of here!

Ango, I dove into the cold water that swept away Ms. Hana.

It was absolutely freezing.

I want to keep learning new things.

And I think I can do that by staying here and being with all these people.

I'm definitely not going with you.

You're a huge disappointment.

Koruri!

Fine!

You'll all regret this!

Let's go, Ryo.

Where have you been, Nijiko?

Underground, to look at that river.

There was an entrance a lot closer than we thought.

By using a windmill and a water wheel, I think we can create a supply system.

I'm going to be busy making that happen.

So I can't go either, Ryo.

Nijiko.

Can you help me with this?

"Help"? I'm going to lead this.

These guys are too damn good.

They've hijacked the group right out from under us, Ango.

Never show your sorry hides again.

Ango, make sure to ice your hand and set it in a cast.

You don't think they'll come back for revenge, do you?

No way, they've got too much pride for that.

But you know, Ran,

it's okay if you want to cry too.

What?

You were fond of Hana. I could tell.

How are you holding up, Mr. Aramaki?

Are you okay with how this turned out?

I'm also...

going to leave.

WATER, HOME

The area between us and the water source that we found

looks pretty much like this, right?

There's a huge difference in elevation.

Our first step should be to install a water wheel to pump the water out.

Really? I'm not sure that's necessary.

How exactly do you plan to get it up the long climb going here, anyway?

Using a siphon? That would mean major construction.

We build a windmill at the top to pull the water up.

Except the wind hardly blows at all.

Then we power it manually.

Personally, I think it's more realistic to make reservoirs midway and pump...

Excuse me.

Please don't jump in hoping to follow after her.

That's not what I'm here for.

I figured that it might wash up on shore somewhere.

Then maybe the dogs could sniff it out.

So you believe that Hana survived and washed ashore somewhere downstream?

I think there's a very slim chance. But, yes.

I heard you were going to leave. Is that so you can find Hana?

Hana left her shoes behind. The dogs can search for her using those.

I'd also like to look for the other members of Team Spring.

I hope you can find them.

If Hana really did survive,

the low water temperature might be a good thing.

Ms. Ayu.

I owe you a debt of gratitude.

You're the one who saved Ms. Hana when she was assaulted by Ango.

Thank you very much.

I didn't really save her. I just happened to be passing by.

But seeing stuff like that irks me so bad,

I want to beat the crap out of that guy.

I feel the same way.

Men are perfectly capable of controlling themselves.
