Double Decker! Doug & Kirill (DOUBLE DECKER! ダグ＆キリル)

#487.

Outside.

#813.

Out.

Thanks for everything.

Bye.

Thank you for everything you did...

Walk!

See you in heaven.

You ain't going to heaven after killing five people.

Let him do what he wants. He doesn't have much time left.

We made these chocolate tarts according to the recipe we got,

and here's the magazine you always asked for.

Wh-What's a rabbit's favorite food?

Come on, eat!

Ricky!

How did this happen?

'Cause you killed five people.

No... six.

I-I... E-Esperanza...

Don't lie just because you don't want to die!

Just let him talk.

I-I'll tell him... everything.

Call SEVEN-O.

Call Doug Billingham.

#05 A. Kroyd Killer!

Here you go, the Derick Special!

You mean the "Out of a can special"?

I fried the fries myself!

Got it. So half canned, half frozen.

It was hilarious, huh? The way we met.

Aww, stop it.

I can't believe you were old man Dan's...

Derick and Kirill's meeting was really stupid, so we're skipping it!

So good you can't help but smile?

No, I was just thinking about my sister.

Oh, I remember. The one who's missing?

We once went to a fair together,

but we had no money and couldn't buy anything.

They must've taken pity on us.

A guy working the stalls gave us some,

said he was just going to throw it out...

Doug's such a jerk!

Hey, don't just lose interest like that!

Would it kill him to drop by once...?

A cat?

Doug?!

Sorry. Lunch break's over.

A new case?

You'll know when you get there.

Hey, Doug, is this...

Zabel Franken.

Aka Z.

The Esperanza leader whose release Cyrus was demanding.

I'm amazed you remembered that.

So here's Zabel's story.

He got into an argument with a drug dealer, pulled out a gun, started shooting,

and killed five people including a three-year-old.

He got the death penalty for it, and was supposed to be executed today.

But now he says he has a new testimony?

He just doesn't want to die, right?

The city charter of Lisvalletta defines the rights of prisoners in articles 22 and 25...

Idiot.

You fill your head with that stuff and that's why you're useless.

But we're the upholders of the law...

He's a bad guy, either way.

Deana!

Come on, you're Double Deckers! Get along!

Stop that.

Travis's Angels must always be beautiful and smiling.

That was gender discrimination.

What part?

All of it!

Why? You're angels!

Calling girls "angels" is old-fashioned anyway...

We can have Buzz-Cut here join the team, then.

I'd rather he didn't...

Got it.

Huh? Seriously?

Zabel wants me to hear his confession.

That's it, right?

That's right.

Seriously?

Does it have to be me?

It does.

He asked for you.

I took this afternoon off, actually.

Got something important to do?

If I don't do the laundry, I'll have nothing to wear tomorrow.

That's why?!

You're the one who caught Zabel?

Yeah.

In your first year at SEVEN-O?

Seriously?

You're amazing, Doug!

Arresting a violent criminal like that.

I caught him on a small case.

After that, he just confessed on his own.

Then why did he say he wants to talk to you?

No idea.

This way.

Wh-What season does s-snow fall in...

Doug!

Stay seated!

S-Sorry...

You've lost weight.

Not much of an appetite these days.

How's your leg doing?

It's an old wound from years ago...

I'm so happy...

It's been so long since anybody's been nice to me.

If you don't shut up and get to the point—

Ricky!

You heard the man.

Got it?

Yes.

So, who'd you kill?

A.

A codename?

Yeah.

The 26 leaders of Esperanza all have a letter codename.

Nobody ever told me that.

You get it now?

All that book learning won't do you a damn bit of good in the field—

In other words, the leaders have a rank order, with "A" at the top.

So Zabel is...

So what are you saying?

You killed the boss of Esperanza?

Yes.

I was working for B, and I wanted to make him leader,

so I killed A myself...

Why not come up with a better lie?

It's true! I did it for B!

Is "B" Bamboo Man?

Does that mean...

I don't know! B is B!

Keep going.

B said to me, "Sorry to make you do all the dirty work..."

"But I promise you that if you get arrested, I'll get you out!"

That's why I waited until today.

He broke his promise, huh?

I can't believe anyone now!

Please! I'll tell you everything, just don't give me the chair!

Stay seated!

Just tell him to sit down!

Shut up, wimpy-ass kid.

What?

Hey.

Ricky!

I know that anything I say now, you won't believe.

But... but...

Then you understand that even if we want to,

words aren't enough to make us believe you.

Under the Mermaid Statue in Portus Park.

A was good to me,

so I wanted him to at least rest in a place with a nice view.

Let's go.

R-Right.

Is this how cops work?

Ricky!

What's the point of saving a murderer's life for shit information like that?

When is he to be executed?

1800 exactly.

I'll have an answer for you then, as to whether it's shit or not.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you...

And thus, an investigation was begun!

Since the information was unverified, no other manpower was available.

And so, the ones sent were...

F***ing dirt!

The usual crew of six!

There were only four hours left, but they still hadn't found anything.

Maybe it was a lie after all...

It's perfect.

The perfect day for hanging laundry.

A man's life is on the line here...

If you don't keep your distance from a case,

it'll swallow you up.

Maybe, but...

Doug! Kirill!

He was telling the truth...

But, we don't know if this is really A...

Agapetus Kroyd.

Hey, Doug!

Agapetus Kroyd?

"Rumored to be an Esperanza leader, but no definite proof was ever found.

Ten years ago, he was arrested for interfering with the duties of an officer.

After his release, he vanished.

During the arrest, he suffered a comminuted fracture of his right ankle..."

He used a special metal plate and billed us an insane amount for the surgery.

Zabel killed "A."

See? I was right, wasn't I?

All we found was the right foot, though.

Where's the rest?

I'll tell you where I buried it, and about Esperanza, too. Anything!

So... you know what I want, right?

You need to make it official if you want more.
