Silent Truth (再会～Silent Truth～)

Will we find it?

I'm sure we will.

- I'm pretty sure. - It's so fun.

There's a lot. We've seen them before.

Yeah.

We found a lot.

Yeah, a lot.

Your bug cage is so small.

This cage?

It won't fit in there.

- You think so? - No worries.

Just one is enough anyway.

You're right.

I don't want it to be too small though.

Just a little farther.

- Junichi. - Yeah?

Let's go this way.

What?

- This way? - Yeah.

It's closer that way.

No, this way is closer.

This way is dangerous. The other route worked last time.

Just choose which way is best.

Let's split into two groups. Only Keisuke and I know the route.

Which way do you want to go, Maki?

NO TRESPASSING

Let's do rock, paper, scissors.

Rock, paper, scissors.

I'm paper.

You and me, Naoto.

All right, let's go!

What?

Wait for me.

- Hurry up, Naoto. - Wait.

- Naoto. - Sorry.

Naoto.

What should we do if we meet the culprit?

The one on the run.

That bank robber, with a gun.

We won't run into the robber.

What if, by some chance, we run into the culprit?

I'll protect you.

I see…

- Are you okay? - Ouch.

Thanks.

Hey.

Hm?

Have you kissed anyone before?

What?

- Stop! - Ouch!

Are you serious?

It's your fault for fooling around.

What was that?

What was that...

That day,

the four of us committed a crime.

The crime we committed

was sealed away in a time capsule that would never be opened in the future.

It's been 23 years since then.

I never saw them again.

Riichi.

Already?

MITSUBA POLICE

Hello, it's Tobina.

Hey, where are you right now?

Well, right now I'm…

Mr. Kamata in Mikoto-cho

is complaining again, so could you go and check on him?

He specifically asked for you.

I'm off duty right now.

Someone reported you guys to the police.

Shut up.

Hello.

Hello there.

- What's going on? - It's that old man.

This way.

Try to keep it down.

Shut up.

Mr. Kamata. Hello.

They're so loud.

- Are you all right? - Their motorcycle is so loud.

Why don't you tell me what happened

- while we play a game of shogi? - Sounds great.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

Are you serious?

That's insane.

You were off-duty, but got called in when it's not even a major incident?

It just means things are peaceful.

But still, what if you were on a date,

or in a situation where you didn't want to leave?

You've got a point.

I was so close to winning a good hand.

What do you mean?

Nothing shady, I hope.

- Hello. - What are you talking about?

You've completely blended in, in the two months you've been here.

- Captain. - Yeah?

I just sent you my report.

- Okay. - Please review it.

Mr. Tobina, you used to live in this town, right?

Until sixth grade.

Really?

Do you have friends that still live here?

I haven't seen them at all since I graduated.

Really?

You haven't even run into them around town?

Nope.

You might not notice them even if you ran into them.

It's been over 20 years, right?

- It's been 23 years. - Wow.

That's crazy.

Do you remember the girl you liked in elementary school?

Be honest. I don't remember at all.

- Bye. - Bye.

Stop!

Ouch.

Are you serious?

It's your fault for fooling around.

- Welcome. - Hi.

- Thank you. - Thank you as always.

Likewise.

Your hair has gotten longer.

You think so?

Masaki got accepted.

To Hamadai Middle School?

No way! That's awesome!

That's great, Maki! Congratulations!

Clam down, Naoto.

But it's great news.

Both you and Masaki worked so hard for this moment.

Thank you.

Speaking of Masaki…

- Hey there. - Hello.

- Can you hold this for me? - Sure.

Thank you.

Congratulations on your acceptance into Hamadai Middle School.

Thank you.

So happy for you.

There's cake here.

- Cake? - Mr. Naoto brought it.

- Wow. - Thanks.

THE DAYS OF MARKING TIME WILL COME TO AN END

AND A NEW CHAPTER WILL BEGIN

MAKIKO

Hello.

Keisuke?

When can you come over here?

Let's see…

You didn't come back last month either.

Sorry.

I'm okay, but I'm thinking about Masaki.

You did promise to meet him once a month, after all.

Sorry, I haven't even had time to sleep lately.

I'm still in the office as we speak.

I see.

Well, try to take it easy.

Instead of taking an hour and a half to come here,

I'd rather have you get some rest.

I'll go there once things settle down here.

I want to celebrate Masaki's school acceptance too.

Yeah.

Later.

Bye.

Nice, Junichi.

Very nice.

Good job, Maki.

Good job, Naoto. Go.

Very good.

Meditation!

SMILE SAKUMA

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- I'll come again. - We'll be waiting.

Hello, this is Ma saison.

Where is Makiko Iwamoto?

Is she there?

She's with a client right now.

If you'd like to make an appointment, I can do that for you.

Makiko Iwamoto.

Manager.

Yeah.

Um…

The caller keeps repeating, "Makiko Iwamoto."

Hello, this is the manager, Iwamoto, speaking.

Long time no see.

It's Sakuma.

- Excuse me, but… - Can you come here right away?

To Smile Sakuma.

What?

Um…

Do you finally remember

who I am?

I'm not sure what this is regarding,

but I'm currently assisting another client.

His name is Masaki, huh?

Your son, I mean.

Why do you know about Masaki?

Your son

shoplifted from my store.

NAOTO

The person you have called cannot answer the phone right now.
