Title: Recipe for Turnabout — nd Trial

Maya: Today's trial just made things even more complicated.

PW: Who was the waitress who laced the coffee?

PW: And the victim was wearing an earphone when his eardrum was ruptured.

Maya: Your impostor's a curious case, too.

PW: All this mystery's got me feeling stuffed.

PW: Anyway, is there really only one customer here?

Maya: It's so quiet and boring.

Maya: I know. Order something.

Maya: It's lunchtime,

Maya: and apparently, the Trickay set is a great deal right now.

PW: Trickay? How much is that?

Maya: Three K yen!

PW: That's expensive!

Maya: Come on, you gotta get it!

PW: Nah, all this mystery's got me feeling stuffed.

Maya: Don't worry about that!

Maya: Order incoming!

Maya: Trickay set, s'il vous plait!

PW: Mayoi-chan?!

Maya: Here.

Maya: Enjoy your meal.

PW: No wonder it's Trickay. It looks good.

Maya: Naruhodo-kun?

PW: It's awful in so many ways I can't even fathom.

Maya: What? No wonder this place is always so empty.

Gum: That's it, that's it!

Gum: Come on, come on, come on!

Gum: Now just call an , pal!

Gum: Come on! I know you can!

PW: That sounds like...

Gum: No! That's the wrong number!

PW: Detective Itonoko?

PW: A radio? Ah, I see.

Gum: Wh-Wh-What do you see?

PW: You were listening to the lottery results, weren't you?

PW: You thought you'd try to win big, just like the victim did.

Gum: A-Are you a mind reader, pal?

PW: Anybody could tell.

Gum: This lottery is in collaboration with a program called Millionaire Radio,

Gum: and the whole thing's very thrilling.

Maya: "Millionaire"? I like how that sounds.

Gum: It starts every week at : PM and goes for ten minutes, pal.

Maya: I'll buy a ticket too, pal!

Gum: You do that!

Gum: U-Um, did Mako-kun say anything?

Maya: Not really. Right, Naruhodo-kun?

PW: R-Right. Nothing in particular.

Gum: She said something about me, huh?

PW: Well, you did keep backing her into a corner with your testimony.

PW: After the trial...

Mag: I can't believe Itonoko-senpai!

Mag: I hate him!

Gum: I was only...

PW: There, there.

Maya: These things happen, pal.

Gum: You're not helping, pal!

PW: Uh, did you come here to talk to Hondobo-san again?

Gum: You mean the chief?

PW: That's why I'm here, too.

Maya: He's in the kitchen, then.

Maya: Huh? He was here a moment ago.

Maya: He does his makeup here?

PW: What's all this?

Gum: Aromatherapy bottles.

PW: One of them is not like the others.

Maya: You're right. It's not even labeled.

Gum: A mystery liquid?

Gum: It's odorless? Smells like a skunk to me!

Gum: I'll return to the precinct and analyze this.

Gum: For Mako-kun's sake!

Maya: There he goes.

Arm: O-Oui...

Arm: Next month, okay?

V: If you haven't got it by then,

V: it might get a little... hot... around here.

Arm: You can trust me!

V: Don't let me down.

V: I'll be watching you.

PW: That's her...

V: Goodbye.

Arm: Oh la la!

PW: S-Sorry.

Arm: I-It's fine. It is as you see.

Arm: I am but a delightful angel w'iz la broken wings!

Arm: Be careful about who you borrow money from!

Arm: 'E will flatten me into la pancake and turn me into a rug!

Kud: Yeah, yeah. You were right.

Kud: I was so busy looking at the server's uniform that I can't remember her face!

Kud: I'm just a useless, dirty old man!

Kud: Pi-Pi-Pigeon! Pretty pigeon!

PW: Welp.

PW: I know. Go for it, Mayoi-chan.

Maya: Um, I'd like to ask you something.

Kud: You're still just a little girl.

Maya: Ow!

PW: Didn't work, huh?

Mia: Do you have a moment?

PW: Chihiro-san?!

Kud: My name is Igarashi Shohei.

Mia: The trial must've been hard on you.

Kud: Right you are!

Kud: No matter what anyone says, I know what I saw!

Kud: That server girl put some white powder in the young lad's javaccino!

Kud: And the young layabout was wearing an earphone!

Kud: In his left ear!

PW: He doesn't seem to be lying.

Kud: Don't look at me like that!

Kud: Yeah, yeah! I'm just an inconvenience!

Kud: At home, at that restaurant... All I'm good for is running errands!

Mia: My, errands?

Kud: That's right. It was the same on the day that lad died!

PW: Were you asked to do something?

Kud: Yeah, by the chief.

Arm: Excusez-moi, gramps!

Arm: Call la police, s'il vous plait?!

Kud: I was in a bit of a daze,

Kud: so I ran out of the place like I was asked.

Kud: I went to look for a pay phone.

PW: Uh, what about your cell phone?

Kud: Like I'd have one of those new-fangled thingamajigs!

Mia: So, did you find one right away?

Kud: No, I ran around looking for ten minutes or so.

PW: Ten minutes?

PW: For those ten minutes, the chief was the only one on the scene?

Kud: Sheesh, way to ruin my javaccino time.

Mia: Javaccino time?

Kud: It's become a daily routine to enjoy a cup of javaccino there at PM every day.

Kud: Darn that chief.

Kud: He's in debt, so he ought to value his regulars!

PW: You know about his debt?

Kud: Yeah. I hear it's blown up to million yen.

PW: million yen?

Kud: If you believe the chief, it's all society's fault.

PW: No, it's his cooking skills.

Kud: He borrowed from the Money Tiger. Should've seen this coming.

PW: Money Tiger...

Kud: Make sure you never borrow from Tender Lender, missy.

Mia: Tender Lenders?

Mia: Is it the Money Tiger's business?

Kud: He's what you call a loan shark.

Mia: Thank you very much.

Gum: Tender Lender?

Gum: Your life's done for, pal.

PW: I didn't borrow anything.

Gum: That place is even fishier than the average ill*gal loan shark.

Gum: And it seems it ran into trouble recently.

Gum: I hear they've been heavy-handed in calling in all their debts.

Maya: Um, who was the gloomy lady in that office?

Gum: Oh, you mean Shikabane Urami?

PW: Shikabane?

Shikabane_Group,Sign: Shikabane Group

PW: Wasn't that the name on the invoice?

Gum: She's the only granddaughter of Shikabane Gonta.

PW: Shikabane Gonta?

Gum: He's the boss of the Shikabane family.

Gum: He controls all the cash on the city's black market,

Gum: and no one can stand up to him, including the Money Tiger.

Maya: Urami-san's grandfather was such a scary guy?

Gum: Everyone knows how much Shikabane Gonta loves his little girl.

Gum: She means everything to him.

Gum: That reminds me. It seems the victim had borrowed from the Money Tiger, too.

PW: How much?

Gum: Around ten million.

Gum: He loved gambling and spent all his money on it, apparently.

PW: That's really brave, in some ways.

Maya: But didn't he win a fifty million lottery?

G: I-I won! Fifty million yen!

Gum: Sheesh. What a lucky guy.

PW: But...

PW: What was he going to do if he hadn't won?

Gum: He'd apparently told his coworkers that he'd use his skills to pay him back.

PW: What do you mean?

Gum: The victim had programmed a computer virus.

PW: A computer virus?

Gum: The really effective ones can go for hundreds of millions on the black market.

Maya: Hundreds of millions?!

Gum: It seems he was a really skilled programmer.

PW: That's a world I can't even begin to fathom.

Gum: I think the virus he wrote was called MC... MC?

Maya: Was it MC Spanner?

PW: MC b*mber.

Gum: That's it! MC b*mber!

PW: That CD contained a program the victim wrote, huh?

Gum: One more thing...

Gum: It looks like the victim had plans to meet someone on the day of the m*rder.

PW: Who was it?

Gum: Sorry, I couldn't figure that out, pal.

Maya: Aw, that's too bad, pal.

Gum: Oh, and also...

Gum: One last thing!

Maya: What? There's more?

Gum: Um... Give this to Mako-kun!

Maya: A-A lunch box?

Gum: I woke up early so I could make it.

Gum: Mako-kun looked like she'd lost a lot of weight.

Fur: This is all that gloomy b*tch's fault!

Mako: Wow, this looks amazing! Thank you!

Mako: Did you make this, Naruhodo-san?

PW: Nah, it was Detective Itonoko.

Mako: Huh? Itonoko-senpai?

Maya: He put his heart into making this out of concern for you.

PW: Mako-chan?

Mako: I hate weenies.

PW: Didn't you say they looked amazing?

Mako: You can have this, Mayoi-san.

Maya: What? But...

Fur: I'm off, then,

Fur: Urami-chan.

V: Take care.

V: Don Tiger...

Mako: Um, Naruhodo-san?

Mako: Something's been bothering me, actually.

PW: What is it?

Mako: The old man's testimony.

Mako: When I took the coffee over to the victim's table,

Mako: there was another customer in the restaurant.

PW: Yeah. Igarashi-san, right?

Mako: No. I'm pretty sure it was a woman.

Mako: Her head was wrapped in bandages, and she had this ominous laugh.

Maya: I-Isn't that...

PW: Are you sure, Mako-chan?

Mako: Absolutely!

PW: Why was she there on the day of the m*rder?

V: The manager is out right now.

PW: Urami-san, we're here to ask you something.

V: A lady with her head wrapped in bandages?

Maya: And it seems she had an ominous laugh, like so.

V: Hmm... I haven't the slightest idea.

PW: I-Is that so?

PW: By the way, what's with those bandages?

Maya: Oh yeah, you said you nearly died.

V: It was a traffic accident.

V: Four months ago, a bike jumped out in front of my car.

V: I had to undergo a complicated surgery, one that cost a lot of money.

V: But Don Tiger saved me.

PW: Shibakuzo-san did?

V: He paid for my entire treatment, saying he loved me.

PW: Out of love?

PW: Do you really believe that to be true?

PW: I'm sorry I looked without permission,

PW: but this is the repair bill for a car.

PW: A car registered to the Shikabane Group.

PW: Four months ago, the one who caused your accident was Shibakuzo-san himself.

PW: As proof, his scooter is practically falling apart.

PW: Deep down, you've realized it too, haven't you?

V: But he told me...

Fur: I love you, Urami-chan.

Fur: That's all, really.

V: That's why he saved my life.

V: That's why he used up all his money.

PW: I hear your grandfather, Shikabane Gonta-san, controls the black loan market.

PW: Of course, Shibakuzo-san can't defy him.

PW: And I heard that you, his granddaughter, mean everything to him.

PW: If you weren't Shikabane Gonta's granddaughter,

PW: would Shibakuzo-san have paid the money?

Maya: N-Naruhodo-kun...

PW: A person's life is riding on what you say.

PW: Please tell us the truth!

Fur: This is all that gloomy b*tch's fault!

V: I...

V: I knew.

V: It was actually a simple operation.

Maya: But didn't you say it cost a lot of money?

V: One hundred million yen.

V: But most of it was "compensation."

PW: Shibakuzo had to pay compensation.

PW: The pieces are falling into place.

V: I wanted to believe him...

V: I wanted to believe that he saved me for me, and not because of my grandfather.

V: I wanted to convince myself, even though I knew it wasn't true all along.

Maya: Urami-san...

V: To pay that money,to help Don Tiger, I... I...

PW: Urami-san?

V: Here. Take these.

PW: What's this?

V: Don Tiger...

V: Watch your back.

Maya: Urami-san, that poor thing.

PW: These are Urami-san's medical papers.

Maya: Why did she give us these?

V: Don Tiger... Watch your back.

Gum: Who's gonna save Mako-kun if not you?!

PW: Got it.

PW: Let's go!

Maya: Yeah!
