No Guns Life (ノー・ガンズ・ライフ)

The government announced, at the scheduled press conference,

that our economic growth has continued to rise since the great war.

On the other hand, there is some concern about the continual increase in crime.

There has been a problem with the slum district known as the Kyusei Pit...

Yeah, no problem.

I'll head that way right now.

"Bar Love Arm"

"Bar Love Arm" "'Renegade Extended'"

"Bar Love Arm" "'Renegade Extended'" Who the hell are you?!

"Bar Love Arm" "'Renegade Extended'"

"Bar Love Arm" "'Renegade Extended'" B-Bastard!

You better remember this, Resolver!

I won't. Don't come here again.

That eyesore blocks the view no matter where you are in the city.

Two things changed this city after the great war.

First, was the great shadow of the Berühren Corporation,

that grew from the war's military procurement boom.

Second, was the emergence of people who underwent physical function extension

developed by the Berühren Corp, the Extended.

I wouldn't do that.

Don't make me raise my hand against a client.

Aww. No use after all?

Is the rumor that your weakness is the trigger on your head really true?

The only things that give me trouble are humidity and kids.

Then...

The only ones who can touch my trigger are the ones I've come to accept.

And... I don't plan to ever accept anyone.

But, Juuzo.

It seems like you've always been searching for a person you can trust it with.

Don't be stupid.

Next time, pick better customers or call me before you're hurt.

After the war, people like that had no place to go.

But I can't turn a blind eye when they start dealing drugs in my bar.

Juuzo!

Here. Your payment.

And, how about a drink?

On the house, of course.

Booze and women make a man go mad.

This is all I need.

Use that money to get yourself treated.

Hey, Juuzo.

That was just a thank you. Don't get any weird ideas.

Damn it. Doing such stupid things!

Hey, Resolver. I got some good parts in.

Look. Top of the line!

You're just laundering it for the Kyusei Group, aren't ya?

Who cares? It's still top of the line!

My name is Juuzo Inui.

I make a living taking care of problems caused by the Extended.

I say that, but my service range is wide.

Everything from babysitting runaways to negotiating peace between rival gangs.

I heard that a renegade Extended kidnapped some kid and ran.

Another Extended?

Yeah. I heard that the one who tried to stop him got shot right in the head!

How terrible.

The war is over, but this ain't much better...

I agree.

H-His head's a gun?!

Don't worry.

That's the Resolver, Juuzo.

This person?

It's all right. Now now. Be good...

A nun at the scene of the crime, huh?

Oh, Juuzo.

Did you just get back?

Christina.

"No late payments on rent!!"

"No late payments on rent!!" There was a huge racket in your office just now.

"No late payments on rent!!" As your landlady, I was worried that the gun on your head had finally gone off.

Racket?

What a terrible thing to do.

I can barely pay the rent here as it is.

Hey, you.

If you have a request, start over by ringing the doorbell first.

Inui...

Yeah, I'm Juuzo Inui.

Y-Your face!

A reaction like that from a guy with a face like yours really hurts.

Hm?

Are you the culprit of that fuss outside?

Th-That wasn't me!

Tell that to the Security Bureau.

Please!

I... I'm not a tool!

You...

I can't be caught by those people again!

Security Bureau!

We know a renegade Extended is inside!

They're fast. I didn't even call for them yet.

Hurry up and open this door!

W-Wait...

He shoulda run in here!

Yes.

The hell are you?!

As you can see, I am in the middle of redecorating.

My place is in no condition for guests,

but we can talk right here.

We're chasing after a renegade Extended that kidnapped a kid from the orphanage.

People have died.

If you're hiding him, you'll be charged as an accomplice.

Well, unfortunately, I haven't received any guests like that.

You're an Over-Extended, aren't ya?

You probably got a license from the Reconstruction Administration.

But you'll lose that license if ya get in the way of our investigation.

You'll be considered a violator of the Extend Law. Understand?

If ya understand, hurry and get out of the way!

That's a problem.

Violating the Extend Law is a serious crime.

If I'm not careful, they'll arrest me and take me apart.

Then... I guess it won't matter if I break a few more laws.

Don't you think so?

Sir?!

We're checkin' other places out!

Berühren is involved in this.

I wonder how long you'll be able to act like that, gun head.

Damn it! Shit!

Juuzo Inui...

We'll talk later.

The Security Bureau is watching us.

They're all so obvious.

They're all chasing after me?

Looks like we have to take care of this situation first.

Why didn't you hand me over to them?

I don't really like the attitude of the Security Bureau.

And, someone I know said the same thing you did a long time ago.

That's all.

I'll distract them.

Please take this kid somewhere safe.

I want you to protect this kid from those people.

I'll be sure to pay you later.

This is a job offer, Juuzo Inui.

I'll take that request.

I'll need you to take care of the costs of my window, after all.

Thank you.

"Have Guns"

There he is!

Over there!

After him!

Mary.

There's someone I'd like taken care of for a bit.

Let me use the usual place.

Yeah, I know.
