Today's Tokyo Stock Exchange
has exhibited an overall downward trend.
The TOPICS index...
Looks like he's on the move.
Michael, what's happening over there?
Okay. I got 'im.
Can you confirm?
The ID system gives me a positive.
I'm sure it's him. Just like we planned.
Miss Karasuma, move to Point B.
Roger.
Haruto.
Haruto, do you copy?
Hey, Michael, you sound really distant.
What's wrong?
It must be your channel.
Make sure you're on the right one.
I am, aren't I?
Michael, do you read me?
Yeah, but there's some static--
Wait, he's here!
We'll begin as planned.
Wait! He changed directions!
He's about to turn the corner
at the drugstore in neighborhood 3.
Haruto, did you catch that?
He's acting suspicious.
Hey, Haruto.
Haruto! Come in!
Get outta there! He's coming!
No! You can't go that way!
Get away from there! He must'a figured out our plan!
Haruto!
What's going on?
We don't have a surveillance system around there!
Do you copy?
--Dammit! -- It's too dangerous
to engage in combat there.
You have to lead him into a neighboring block!
Dammit...
That man shot at me.
The cops?
Uh-- What in the hell are you?
Bastard!
Your powers are useless against me.
Could it be that you're what they...
...what they call a hunter?
Probably.
Ravens Flat...
Hmm... Let's see.
Virgo...
"Good luck is coming.
You might have a wonderful rendezvous
in the near future. Your lucky color is black."
I can't believe it!
Shooting five bullets in the city!
How many hours do you think it took
to retrieve all of them?
Each and every time you use our precious Orbo bullets,
we're going to get another request from the Factory.
You've been saved each time because Amon is around.
You really have to get your act together.
Good morning, sir.
I will have him submit a formal apology
for everything that happened last night.
Please inform the Factory that I am truly sorry.
It's all right.
About next year's budget.
The negotiations with the police department
should be handled by a management officer
don't you think?
Michael.
Yeah.
Is it ready?
Yes, boss, it is.
Then I guess we should begin.
The witch that Amon hunted last night
apparently had a partner with him.
This came out of the Factory's investigation.
The witch had a partner?
That's right.
And it looks like that partner
might have powers that could pose a problem for us.
Hello?
Huh? A young woman, all by herself?
Well, Mr. Amon is...
Uh, he's in a meeting right now.
Yeah, that's fine.
Just have her wait there then.
That's strange.
All right, now.
I'll show you the other witch's dossier.
Name: Yuji Higashi, 25 years old. Unemployed.
He met Kent Nishiyama,
the witch we nabbed last night, about ten months ago.
It was down at the waterfront.
Oh, regarding those problematic powers,
Nishiyama claims that he got his powers from Higashi.
Of course, we know that's impossible, don't we?
It's most likely a case of the perpetrator
coming to a realization about his powers.
After meeting someone with the same abilities,
he simply assumed the rest.
So Nishiyama and Hagashi have the same powers?
Looks that way.
We have to get on his trail right away.
I'm afraid that he might have gathered some
information about us and how we work.
We have to hunt him down before he completely vanishes.
All right, this hunt is now a higher priority
than any other project. So get to work.
Amon, come with me.
A wonderful rendezvous.
Lucky color is... black.
-- G'mornin'. --
What d'ya mean, "good morning"?
Do you have any idea what time it is, Miss Dojima?
Who's that?
Huh? Oh, uh, she's just a visitor for Mr. Amon.
Uh, could you please remind them about her
when you go upstairs?
So Amon goes for that kind of girl, huh?
What are you talking about?
Come on, now.
If you don't hurry up and get up there,
the chief is gonna get mad at you again.
I know, I know.
You don't have to push me you know!
Dojima hasn't arrived yet.
Well, we can't do anything about that.
She's special, remember?
I wanna be special, too.
It seems as though the members' morale is down lately.
Do you think it's because we lost one?
It could be.
I see.
Apparently, Solomon has decided to send us a replacement.
They've sent a replacement?
Six months after what happened?
Do you think that they might be up to something?
We're gonna need a little bit more data
in order to convince them of Orbo's usefulness.
I want to keep Headquarters out of the loop until then.
You need to be on your guard, Amon.
I understand.
Yes, it's me.
Yeah. I see.
The hunter that Soloman is sending us
is apparently a Craft User.
A Craft User?
Dojima. The chief's in a bad mood.
Good luck.
You really don't have a clue, do you?
Hope you have fun out there, guys!
Miss Dojima!
Miss Dojima, I notice you're late again!
Hattori! Get the phone!
Uh, that's right. Hey, Chief!
There's someone waiting downstairs to see Mr. Amon!
Oh!
That's Amon's girl.
His what?!
I'm sure she came here to find him
because she was at a complete loss.
Poor little thing.
Huh?
What is it?!
We're in an emergency!
What are you saying?
Amon, has already left!
Tell her that and get rid of her!
Dojima!
I heard we're getting a new hunter from headquarters.
I guess the management isn't very happy with me.
Who did you hear that from?
From you-know-who.
From Michael?
Amon, is all of this true?
Mr. Amon, if someone amazing shows up,
you think I'll be let go?
You might be.
What?!
Come on, he's joking.
Right?
A Craft User...
I'm really sorry about all this.
I'm sure you can kill some time over at that place.
Harry's, right?
Yup.
I'll try going there.
Hey! Take care now.
Black, huh?
Dojima, how many times do I have to say this
before you get it?
You come and go whenever you please.
You just have to act normal.
Now, is that so difficult?
Youe father will be very upset if you keep doing this!
