Devil (Maou / 魔王)

It's Amano Makoto, written as "the rain's truth", huh?

Tarot card? Why such an item, to me?

Murdered? Kumada-san?

The same object arrived to my place from the same person.

It's him! He's the one that killed him!

Hayashi...

You just killed a person, what the hell are you saying!

Who the hell is this Amano Makoto person!?

An innocent person died.

Don't you understand the feelings of a person that got a beloved family member snatched away!?

Did we get your comprehension?

The truth is something that cannot be twisted.

It's kind of you to expressly come here.

My sympathies for Kumada-sensei.

- Can't forgive that Hayashi fellow. - It wasn't Hayashi that killed him.

What!?

The real criminal is this person.

This person manipulated Hayashi and killed Kumada.

Nause-sensei.

The assailant's lawyer.

How are you?

You seemed quite tired yesterday, I was worried.

You shouldn't have. I'm just fine.

Glad to hear that.

The incident has been solved, so

- please have a good rest. - The incident is not over yet.

There's that Amano Makoto's hand behind this whole incident.

I won't allow for this to be over till that person is caught.

My father, brother, and sister-law.

The lawyer Naruse-san.

I've heard what's being said about you.

Was it, "Angel Lawyer"?

The media is saying so on its own accord.

Depending on the point of view, I become a demon.

Kumada-san was our legal adviser.

Losing such a capable person

is a hard blow both for the company and myself.

By the way, how about it, Naruse-san?

What do you think of becoming the company's adviser?

I'm honored for such an undeserved invitation. Thank you.

Please give me some time to think about it.

Father, what's the meaning of this?

He's a capable man.

"Before the spirit of the deceased" Serizawa Eisaku

Please leave!

Mom.

Mom? Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Hang in there! Mom!

Yo~

Oh, he's here!

Soda! When were you released?

A little while ago.

You're so cold, no one came to pick me up.

Thanks to you we were called out.

My lawyer is top notch! In the blink of an eye he settled the case out of court.

What's with the "my lawyer" talk. Kasa got him for you, didn't he!

What's with this discharge party?

It's a pun!

I requested it at the cake shop, and even though I didn't haggle they gave me a good price.

The shop manager said, "Thank you for your hard work"!

Right! Speaking of which

I was kicked out of my woman's place and went back to my parents' home after such a long time.

This surfaced.

Nostalgic, right?

No way you have a gun!

Oh, sensei! Over here!

Please, join us.

I invited him.

"Angel Lawyer" Naruse-sensei!

Angel?

I hope I'm not intruding.

Not at all.

I invited you to express my gratitude.

Go at it, please.

Ah, those guys, they're my class mates from junior high.

I see...

Let's have another toast.

Cheers!

Your relationship since junior high

still on-going till now, that's enviable.

It's a gang of hooligans, just as it was back then.

The hooligan is only you.

We're all working properly.

You just have a loan-collection business.

That's totally different from your extortion business!

Haa!?

Quit it!

Soda, stop being irresponsible and grow up.

Are you looking down on me?

Did you forget that favor I did you in the past?

It's ironic, isn't it.

I have a criminal record, and you're a detective.

How conveniente! The power holder is your rich father, isn't it.

I'm envious, Mr.noble lineage.

Hey, Soda.

You drank too much.

Go out and cool down a little.

Hey! Hey, hey hey.

A debt-collector shouldn't be speaking so haughtily.

Bastard!

Stop it!

You bastard!

Sorry for the commotion.

Don't worry about it.

I should be on my way.

It's a nice photo.

Memories are irreplaceable.

Please cherish them.

Such pretty lilies.

Naruse-san, you're here.

Yeah.

How nostalgic.

Do you have any memories related to lilies?

My mom liked them. So when I was little she made sure we had them at home.

I see. I love them, too.

They emit a summer fragrance.

Investigation headquarters dissolution!?

Not dissolution, reduction.

Why reduction!? The one behind it has not been caught yet.

The culprit has been arrested,

and our division was judged as not having personnel to spare beyond that.

We'll still look for Amano Makoto steadily.

How cute!!

Sora, time to go to nursery school.

Where did you get that?

A guy I don't know gave it to me.

- A guy you don't know? - Yes.

Mao

Ono Satoshi

One light sways slowly

disappears without healing pain

I take your life forever

You take my life forever

One tear falls numbly

disappears without any emotions reaching

I take your life forever

You take my life

It won't stop

traces of spilled tears

at that moment

color of tears about to overflow

color of tears about to overflow

Love is surely like incessant rain

They can't go back

traces of spilled tears

those memories

color of tears about to overflow

color of tears about to overflow

At the extremity of this world that had everything snatched away

is sadness

Though no matter what ending I picture, my heart remains wrapped in mystery

That's like a truth drawing near, just like darkness

Though no matter what world I depict, tomorrow is not visible

That's like a lilly, not knowing impurity

a desire that remains untarnished

What are the people at the central office thinking?

Don't complain. Search.

What for?

Amano!

Former convicts list, National Police database, Internet check...

Though there's a possibility it's an alias,

it might pop up somewhere, right?

Don't talk to me casually.

Serizawa-san, express delivery.

From Amano again!?

Another tarot card...

Moon.

Tsuki (=moon)

"Build everything into one whole"

"One reverberates with the rest, they function mutually"

What does that mean?

Wait, you can't !

It's here again.

Eh?

Who is this person?

As I said, I don't know...

Don't play dumb.

You talked to this person on the phone. Who is it? Spill it!!

Serizawa, stop it!

- Answer me, Hayashi! - Serizawa, stop it!

- Who is it?! - Serizawa, stop it!

A pre-notified murder!?

Soon after I got the tarot card, Kumada-san was murdered.

You mean someone else is about to get murdered?

Someone I know...

might be the target again.

But, why you?

How should I know.

Damn him, making me look like a fool.

Calm down. If you don't you'll play his game.

That Hayashi fellow...

had bitter feelings toward Lawyer Kumada.

If the next target is someone you know...

Isn't it likely it'll be someone that has accumulated some resentment from others?

Someone I know who can be resented...

Do you have any ideas?
