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

Say cheese!

This hospital's going to seem so lonely without you around!

I hope you get shot again so you can come back soon!

But I thought Derick died during the investigation!

Dead?

Who said that?

Who...

One of our officers got set up during an undercover investigation of him.

It's sad to think I'll never see them in action together again.

Nobody actually said it!

Th-Then what happens to me?

I ain't comin' back!

#04 Derick Returns!

This was always my dream.

I've wanted to be a bartender ever since I was a kid.

Fin

This concludes "Derick Returns."

That's right, this isn't a story about a detective

Former Detective

whose dream of becoming a bartender came true!

It's the story of people who are detectives right now!

And in this exciting episode...

You'll see the story of Max, aka Boxer,

Robot, aka Yuri,

Kay, aka Rookie,

and the rest of Travis's Angels in SEVEN-O.

Who the hell are "Travis's Angels"?

Here...

I...

Come!

Pink, aka Deana!

It's been three weeks...

Since the reorg, that is,

and I've received a request to see more of Pink and Rookie.

From above.

Who is "above"?

This time, you'll be investigating a club known for its handsome staff.

It's perfect for you.

Okay! I'll do my best no matter what it is!

Well said, Rookie.

So even street-level dealers are peddling Anthem these days, huh?

Well, after what we just saw at the factory,

it's certainly possible.

Correct.

But we still have no proof.

Sophie used her feminine wiles to get us this information,

as the case itself is still under the Drug Control Division's jurisdiction.

Make sure you don't get in their way.

Okay!

You especially, Pink.

You have a tendency to be...

Let's go, Kay.

O-Okay!

...like that.

Hey, what does he mean by "get in their way"?

It means we need to respect our fellow officers.

Allow me to explain!

Their job is solely to deal with crimes involving Anthem.

Org Chart

Regular Drugs

Drug Control Division

Anthem

Narcotics Crimes

The Drug Control Division deals with any incidents involving regular drugs.

The two of them are, in theory, on the same team,

but it's common for them to both be chasing the same case,

leading to no end of trouble!

And that's why we need to be careful, huh?

Hey, ready to go?

Y-Yes...

What's that outfit?

That's my line.

Why the hell are you dressed like that?

Fine. You're my little sister.

You just moved here from the middle of nowhere.

Wait a second!

Welcome to Train Spotter.

You're so cute...

So are you.

This is for you.

Thank you.

Um... I...

Oh, she's just a little girl. No alcohol for her.

I'm sorry.

Do we have the money for this?

Yeah. I borrowed it from Sophie.

Hey, Sophie, did you swipe my wallet again?

Wasn't me!

Really?

Wow, I'm really allowed to do this?!

You're the best, miss!

Here comes another!

Awesome!

Here it goes!

Um... aren't we supposed to not stand out in an investigation like this?

The bigger the bait, the better.

But...

If you try to half-ass it, like you're doing, you end up on the menu instead!

Look. Here comes an idiot looking for a bite.

You're spending quite a bit of money.

You'd better not be lying when you say you've got the good stuff.

Sure. I've got whatever you need. Top-shelf stuff. 100% pure.

It'll send you straight to heaven.

You want to go to heaven first?

How come you don't have any?

This had damn well better not be all you've got.

Where's the Anthem?

Whatever. Let's take him to HQ and make him talk.

Y-You can't do that! It's out of our jurisdiction.

Huh? Look at this crap he's got.

All this stuff's illegal as hell.

But it's the Drug Control Division's job, not ours.

We don't have the required authority here.

We need to go through the proper channels...

Don't take your eyes off him, idiot!

Stop!

Stop or I'll shoot!

No!

What are you doing?

You can't shoot a gun here...

Shit!

He got away and it's your fault!

I'm sorry.

Apologies won't fix it!

But the rules are the rules!

We don't even have the right to arrest him.

What are they fighting over?

Something about a man who ran away from them.

If I was their man, I'd run the hell away, too.

Shut up, you old geezers!

Responsibility?

How are you going to take responsibility, rookie?

Well...

I'm willing to look past the fact that you're useless.

But I'm not willing to let you get in my way.

I've got my own way of handling things!

Nothing you said was wrong, really.

But if she's not here, that means...

you know, right?

Thank you all for coming today.

I truly appreciate you taking the time...

Sorry.

No, I'm fine.

Well, it's not much of a welcome party, anyway.

Don't let it bug you.

Sorry. You didn't need to give a speech after all.

I just don't think she and I are a good fit!

I don't just mean today.

*Non-Alcoholic Beer

Like last time...

Doug, Rob spilled the beans!

The bastard gave Anthem to that prisoner named Henry,

the one who started the riot.

He's in tears right now, apologizing.

Now, let's hear what else you have to tell us.

And what's with her outfit, anyway?

*There's no alcohol in her beer

It's a dress code violation!

It's fine.

Travis lets her get away with it.

She's one of Travis's Angels.

Let her dress how she wants.

We do a lot of dangerous sting work.

She volunteered for that job in exchange for not getting a partner.

She spent a lot of time trying to find the best way to survive,

and that's just how she ended up.

If you try to half-ass it, like you're doing, you end up on the menu instead!

You're allowed to refuse having a partner?

If you're as talented as she is, yeah.

But why'd Deana agree to take Kay, then?

She agreed instantly for you when she turned everyone else down.

I heard I was a replacement for somebody else.

Jefferson was just somebody Travis forced on us.

Why me?

You've got something she lacks, maybe.

Okay!

I'll keep doing what I'm doing a little longer.

And I'll take responsibility for what happened today!

Responsibility?

You sure about this?

Yes. I do have one idea.

Responsibility?

Responsibility for what?

What's wrong with hanging a suspect upside down from a crane!

It's very wrong.

They're still just suspects.

Screw the rules!

Are we back in school or something?

You know how this works. We're special.

We're detectives, but we're under the constant danger of being disavowed.

Like spies, you know.

That's why Travis recommends having a partner.

You can guarantee your safety by keeping an eye on each other.

That's how the Double Decker System works!

Stop it. It's embarrassing.

But the idea itself is a good one.

And with a partner, you can do half the work and get twice the credit.

Even with a prissy, little schoolgirl like her?

I think she's just who you need.

It's faster this way!
