Mokutarou Kikuta : Oh, did Lieutenant Tsurumi send you because he was worried about how I was doing? |
(0:00:48.70) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : He must be looking forward to how much stronger his army will be after my arrival. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : at night, carrying no light and wearing geta sandals. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : Strange, yes? |

Tokishige Usami : My left ball is changing places with my right ball! |

Tokishige Usami : A man wearing geta sandals on a dark, snowy mountain? |
(0:03:01.77) |
Tokishige Usami : Well, there are snow geta you can wear in winter. |
(0:03:05.79) |
Tokishige Usami : And if he was running in the dark, perhaps his eyes were simply used to the darkness. |
(0:03:08.65) |
Tokishige Usami : What's so strange about that? Sheesh... |
(0:03:13.85) |
Tokishige Usami : Anyway, busy now! |

Mokutarou Kikuta : He can tell you himself. |
(0:03:21.10) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Right, Private Ariko? |
(0:03:23.34) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I heard the sound of geta, but the footprints on the ground weren't from geta. |
(0:03:26.18) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : They were from straw boots. |
(0:03:31.88) |
Tokishige Usami : And so? Why is this so important to you? |
(0:03:34.25) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : There was more to the story, right, Ariko? |
(0:03:37.39) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : The clothes he wore were... curious. |
(0:03:40.81) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : The pattern on them was unusual. |
(0:03:44.90) |
Kouhei Nikaidou : Like how? |
(0:03:46.59) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I couldn't really say, because it was so dark... |
(0:03:48.62) |
Kouhei Nikaidou : You two have been here since the end of the war. |
(0:03:53.83) |
Kouhei Nikaidou : The hot springs have scrambled your brains. |
(0:03:56.12) |
Tokishige Usami : Now, now, Nikaido. |
(0:03:59.89) |
Kouhei Nikaidou : What were you doing at a hot spring that far up in the mountains, Private Ariko? |
(0:04:05.27) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : It's a secret hot springs that only the Ainu know about. |

Kouhei Nikaidou : You an Ainu? |

Rikimatsu Ariko : Yes. |

Tokishige Usami : Perhaps he's an Ainu, too? |

Tokishige Usami : And the strange patterns on his clothes were an Ainu pattern. |
(0:04:19.84) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I would recognize an Ainu pattern. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : Something about this story seemed really strange to me. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : I can see all of you. |

Rikimatsu Ariko : What I saw was a tattoo. |
(0:11:07.03) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : We'll follow him. After me. |
(0:11:11.00) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Usami, you asshole. Your timing was a little too convenient. |
(0:11:23.31) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : You and Nikaido were actually staking out the Ainu hot springs, weren't you? |
(0:11:27.99) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Let me guess: the two of you figured out what was going on from Ariko's story, |
(0:11:32.65) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : and were planning on finding the man before us. |
(0:11:35.79) |
Tokishige Usami : Whoops. Guess you figured it out. |
(0:11:38.05) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : Why would a tattooed prisoner |
(0:11:45.42) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : take the risk of hiding at a hot springs filled with members of the 7th? |

Kouhei Nikaidou : Oh, I've seen him. |

Kouhei Nikaidou : He's a masseur. |

Rikimatsu Ariko : His footsteps lead inside. |

Rikimatsu Ariko : It's an old mine tunnel. I went inside once when I was a kid. |
(0:12:17.44) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Any other exits? |
(0:12:21.01) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : Several, if they haven't collapsed. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : It's coming from further inside. |
(0:12:26.70) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Don't light any matches. |
(0:12:28.95) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : It'll make you a target. |

Tokishige Usami : I can't see a thing. |
(0:12:44.57) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : What's this? |

Mokutarou Kikuta : There's something on the ground. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : If we're not careful, we'll give away our location. |

Toni Anji : Now it's my turn. |
(0:13:14.89) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Looks like the prisoner has particularly good ears. |
(0:13:18.30) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : He's using the sound of the ice breaking to target us. |
(0:13:24.14) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I never even noticed the ice when I came here before. |
(0:13:30.35) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : If I had a cinoyetat I could avoid them, |
(0:13:34.68) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : but a light like that would make me an easy target. |
(0:13:37.81) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Bastard! |
(0:13:51.02) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : He's moving fast, but I don't hear any shattering ice. |
(0:14:02.67) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : How is he able to dodge it in this darkness? |
(0:14:07.24) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : And even with the volcanic gases at Hell Valley, he and his buddies... |
(0:14:12.12) |
Toni Anji : A torch? |
(0:14:41.17) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : He's a masseur! |

Mokutarou Kikuta : He'd never seen us to begin with. |

Toni Anji : They found me! Now things are bad! |
(0:14:51.32) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : A masseur? |
(0:14:54.71) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : He's using sound to get an accurate picture of his surroundings. |
(0:14:55.99) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : There's probably some secret to that sound of geta sandals, |
(0:14:59.42) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : but it doesn't matter. |
(0:15:02.35) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : So he ran outside? |

Tokishige Usami : Warrant Officer Kikuta, I was shot in the leg! |
(0:15:15.47) |
Tokishige Usami : Please don't leave me here! |

Tokishige Usami : It's dark! |

Mokutarou Kikuta : He's so damn annoying. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : Fine. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : Don't let him get away. |

Toni Anji : I need to get the bullet out... |

Tokishige Usami : Should we really let Ariko go on his own? |
(0:15:56.97) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Stop talking. |
(0:15:59.84) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : You're in no position to question anybody. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : The Ainu search parties walked through waist-deep freezing water, |
(0:16:31.68) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : and moved across deep snowy mountains like they were open plains. |
(0:16:35.53) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : They found the bodies and brought them back. |
(0:16:38.77) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Even the locals were astonished. |

Mokutarou Kikuta : And he knows this mountain like his own backyard. |
(0:16:44.68) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Escaping from Ariko Rikimatsu on this mountain... is impossible. |
(0:16:47.71) |
Toni Anji : There's something about those breaking branches I don't trust. |
(0:17:12.89) |
Toni Anji : What is this sound? |
(0:17:41.13) |
Toni Anji : So that's it... |

Toni Anji : I lose. |

Kouhei Nikaidou : Where's Warrant Officer Kikuta? |
(0:18:20.03) |
Tokishige Usami : He went to the mountains to search again. |

Tokishige Usami : It's been four days and Private Ariko isn't back. He's probably dead. |

Kouhei Nikaidou : Did you send a telegram to Lieutenant Tsurumi? |
(0:18:30.67) |
Tokishige Usami : Yeah. |
(0:18:33.10) |
Tokishige Usami : He says he's coming here. |
(0:18:34.14) |
Tokishige Usami : Ariko's dead, and I injured my leg, |
(0:18:37.13) |
Tokishige Usami : and we let the prisoner get away. |
(0:18:40.12) |
Tokishige Usami : He'll scold me again! |
(0:18:44.62) |
Ikaripopo : Ipopte... |

Mokutarou Kikuta : Hey, Ariko. If you're alive, say so. |
(0:18:59.26) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : I was worried. |
(0:19:03.07) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I've been waiting for you. |
(0:19:04.64) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Why did you strip off his skin? Explain, Ariko. |
(0:19:10.37) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : When I checked the tattoos, I realized that they stopped at the body's medial line. |
(0:19:13.95) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : At the medial line? |
(0:19:19.79) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : It was an instruction to strip off the skin like you would an animal's. |
(0:19:21.62) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : I see. |
(0:19:26.23) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : It was too deep in the mountains for me to easily be able to carry it back. |
(0:19:27.48) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : So I stripped it off there. |
(0:19:32.60) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : And there was a chance that Usami and Nikaido would steal our prize. |
(0:19:34.40) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : So I hid here in the village until you came to look for me. |
(0:19:40.84) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : And his gun? |
(0:19:48.43) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : I assumed you'd want it, so I looked for it. |
(0:19:49.92) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : But it was buried in the avalanche. |
(0:19:52.41) |
Rikimatsu Ariko : The only prizes I brought back are his skin, and this. |
(0:19:55.56) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : Well done, Ariko. |
(0:19:58.68) |
Mokutarou Kikuta : You made the right call every time. |
