I don't get it. I can't reach Mom or Dad?

Oh, no.

Huh?

BIG BROTHER CALLING…

BIG BROTHER CONNECTED

Yuri?

Rika?

Oh, thank God. Rika! Help!

I haven't been able to reach Dad or Mom.

I was just at school,

then all of a sudden, I'm like on this huge high-rise.

I'm on the rooftop right now,

and I'm just so confused!

Help me. I don't know what to do.

-Yuri, calm down. -

So, you're here, in this world?

Wait. "In this world?"

You're also here?

Yeah. Yuri, listen to me.

You're a lot more courageous than you think.

Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.

First, you should treat this world as pure reality,

not a dream or an illusion.

What?

I've checked multiple buildings,

but all the stairs going down are blocked.

And we can't get to the ground.

NOTICE GROUND ACCESS PROHIBITED

For some reason, there aren't any elevators, either.

-You'll notice that the buildings… -Huh?

…are all connected with rope bridges.

Help!

Huh?

No! Get away from me!

What do you want?

Please don't! Leave me alone!

Just stop.

Please don't do this!

-Go away! - Who is that? Some psycho?

Yuri, what's going on?

Uh… Um, there's a weird person with a mask.

There's a Mask?

- -Did he see you?

No, I'm far enough away so I'm okay.

But the lady isn't.

Listen to me, Yuri.

-No! - Those bastards…

-The Masks, their intention isn't to kill. - What?

-Their true intention… -

The Masks, they want us to…

Wait. Why is that area wide open?

…to reach the edge of despair.

No!

- -

Huh?

And commit suicide by jumping.

Yuri, are you okay?

Get a hold of yourself!

Yuri, can you hear me?

Yeah. I'm okay. And I heard you, Rika.

I understand now.

Listen. I'm about to head out to find you right now.

-Stay safe until I come to you. -I got it.

From where you're standing,

are you able to see a building that's taller than the rest?

Yeah, I see it.

All right. Let's figure out where you are then.

Huh?

Yuri, what happened?

-Yuri! Yuri! -Huh?

-Hey! -Oh, no.

Yuri! Can you hear me?

Rika, no!

Yuri! What's happening? What…

Hey, wait! That's my… Huh?

Rika!

I need to get away!

- -

I can do this.

What if this actually is a dream?

Maybe I'll wake up if I fall from here.

Huh?

Stay safe until I come to you.

No!

I'm not going to die before I see my brother!

I refuse to die!

Uh… Huh?

- You over there! -Huh?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I am.

So, are you injured, miss?

No, no. I'm fine. Thank you.

I'm glad I got here in time.

Oh, sir. I finally caught up with you.

Listen here, Mizushita.

Uh, yes, sir?

A police officer has no business being afraid of heights

or crossing rope bridges for that matter.

- What a relief. -Sorry.

I'm not alone anymore.

Got any idea who those masked guys are?

Nah. Whoa! This is a real Japanese sword.

Whoa. Even the Masks can't survive this height, huh?

-Huh? - Guess not.

-Huh? -Huh!

- -

Am I falling? What? Wait. Am I gonna die?

Whoa! The ground's right there!

He's dead.

Ah, well… What the hell do I care?

Because now I get to be alone up here with a high school girl.

Talk about having a lucky day!

Uh, hold on a second. Why don't we just talk this out first?

Don't you see that you're acting totally crazy right now?

-Of course I'm crazy! -

I was brought to this insane world!

- -

Oh. But, boy, do I feel good right now?

That annoying supervisor of mine is dead!

-All right. Stand against the wall. - What?

I said stand in front of that wall. Damn it!

- - And now, take off your shirt.

Hurry up if you don't wanna die.

Huh?

- No! - Hold perfectly still.

- -Otherwise,

I may accidentally stab and kill you.

If I was in the other world,

there's no way I could do this!

Good girl. Now take off your panties next.

- What? -Hurry up and take them off!

But keep your skirt on, okay?

- -Oh, and keep your socks on, too.

This is better than dying. This is better.

Hurry up, a Mask might show up at any moment.

Wait. They only seem to be carrying those lame weapons with them.

With this Japanese sword and a gun,

I may just be invincible!

Rika!

- -

I'm gonna protect you from here on out,

so you better be a good girl, and do exactly as I say!

- -

He shot all the way from up there? Um, what are they called again?
