City Adorned in Light

A Sampo! A Sampo!
Sion.
Come here for a second.
Is something wrong?
I need your help.
Thirty minutes ago, when I patrolled this area,
these weren't here.
Then we should treat them as lost property.
Have the Sampo bring them in.
Good grief
Our robots are too nosy for their own good.
I think it's cute!
Another one
What is it this time?
What's that?!
Are you all right?
Yamase! Contact the Bureau of Health!
Got it!
Hang in there!
Hang in th—
City Adorned in Light
Ow!
Whoa, Sion
Are you okay?
Sorry I was spacing out a bit.
Honestly
We haven't seen each other in ages.
How can your mind be wandering?
W-Well, I really was surprised to learn
that you were going to No. 5, to study abroad.
What will your grandmother do?
She's moving into the Twilight House.
Wow, that must be a load off your shoulders.
Say, Sion?
There's something I wanted to ask you.
What is it?
Four years ago,
why didn't you enroll in the gifted course?
Isn't it a little late to ask that?
Now is the perfect time.
All the teachers had high expectations for you.
They overestimated my abilities.
Your abilities are real!
The numbers prove it.
Or must I again remind you of
your evaluation exam scores from four years ago?
Does it really matter anymore?
Four years ago,
I was disqualified from the gifted course,
and stripped of my right to live in Chronos,
along with my other privileges
It isn't that I didn't want to.
But it wasn't my decision.
Since then, I've been living here, in Lost Town.
I work as a park supervisor.
That's the reality, as you'd put it.
Then, why were you disqualified?
I'd rather not discuss it.
You knew that he was a VC, did you not?
Yes
Why did you not turn him in immediately?
Well
Answer the question.
Well
He looked about my age.
And he was seriously injured.
So
You felt pity for the VC.
So you helped him escape,
rather than turn him over to the authorities.
Pity?
Sion?
Oh Sorry.
I get it. I won't press the issue.
Let's go.
Sorry
Are you upset now?
No.
Cheer up!
I mean, you've been selected
to study abroad, in No. 5.
Aren't you jealous?
Yep. I sure am.
Liar.
Huh?
I specialize in
neural function, behavioral changes,
and endocrine systems.
If you truly felt jealousy,
my presence would cause you stress.
When the body is stressed,
the adrenal cortex produces corticosteroids which
I get the idea, Safu!
Can you save the lecture for another time?
Just now, you weren't feeling any stress at all.
Because you aren't jealous of me.
If you were,
you wouldn't be able to smile like that
If you were still the same as four years ago,
you would envy my situation.
But you don't
You have no regrets.
That's because your vision
of the future differs from mine.
Sion! What are you thinking?
What do you hope to achieve?
To achieve
What, indeed?
This is far enough.
Okay, be careful.
Oh, when are you leaving?
Day after tomorrow.
Day after tomorrow?
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
I didn't want to tell you.
Sion, there's something I'd like you to give me.
S-Sure.
If it's something I can do before you leave.
Your sperm.
Did you hear me?
I want your sperm.
Uh Er
Safu, uh
I want to have sex.
I want to have sex with you.
Uh, well
Just hold on.
Right now.
Not right now.
Why not?
Aren't you interested in women?
Don't you want to have sex?
That's not the problem.
It's just that I
never thought of me that way?
thought of you as my friend.
You're so stupid.
Why do you have to be such a child?
Fine.
I'm going home!
Safu! Two years!
You'll be studying abroad for two years, right?
Once you're back, I'll find you.
To see if I want to have sex?
Yeah.
Seriously, you really are hopelessly stupid.
I don't know how you've managed
to survive this long.
Take care of yourself.
Don't overdo it.
I'm going to work myself to the bone!
I'll work so hard, the guys will all steer clear of me!
A rat?
You're still a sap.
Rat?
Sion?
Sorry!
Were you asleep?
No.
Safu, sorry about earlier.
I was
Was it really that important?
Huh?
I've never seen you look so serious.
It was pretty funny.
Don't get the wrong idea, Safu!
It's not like that
It's okay. I don't mind.
Say, Sion
Never mind! Good night.
Ah, wa—
Two butter rolls and two muffins please, Mrs. K.
Good morning, Lili.
Oh, Yoming's with you.
Uncle Yo stays over at our place
once every couple weeks.
He loves your muffins!
How nice.
My sister's pregnant, but there's no
man around the house.
I have to come and check up on them.
It must be difficult for Renka.
Oh, I should buy some for Mama.
Mrs. K, may I get three of each?
Of course! Three it is!
Here you are.
Would you mind if I wrote
an article about your bakery?
About my bakery?
Everyone's starved for entertainment news.
Besides
I couldn't call myself a net reporter
if I never spread the word about these muffins.
Then, I'll stop by in the next few days.
Bye-bye!
Morning, Mom!
What time did you get home, Sion?
I forget.
Did something happen yesterday?
No
Nothing happened.
You should have breakfast before you leave.
Cherry cakes
I'm thinking about adding them to the menu.
Try one for me.
Well?
Delicious.
You finally remembered how to make them.
At long last.
Good morning.
Pledge unflagging loyalty to the city.
I pledge unflagging loyalty to the city.
The city is grateful for your loyalty.
As you work today, take pride in your city.
Good morning!
Earlier, a young lady stopped by
The wife of the man who died yesterday.
She wanted to see where the body was found.
Oh
Young lady?
She was only three years younger than he.
Huh?
The body we found belonged to
a thirty-one-year-old man
Three years older than his wife.
That's impossible
He was clearly an elderly man!
Yeah
And the authorities have taken custody of the body.
Taken custody Why?
I really don't know
Want some coffee?
The incident wasn't on the news.
Huh?
The wife was told that her husband
died in a park accident.
Accident
Yamase, it's possible that the authorities
have been manipulating information
Sion!
Not another word.
We work for the city!
We've pledged our loyalty.
We should never voice suspicions
Yamase?
Sion
What's happening to
Where's Yamase?!
The bee?
The corpse was taken to the hospital.
Sion, age sixteen.
He received Rank A during his age-2 exam,
and enrolled in the best
educational institution available.
His major was ecology.
Four years ago, he was stripped of his privileges,
after aiding and abetting a fugitive VC.
You can give us your story
at the Bureau of Public Security.
Huh?
Wait
What's going on?
Aren't we going to the Bureau of Public Security?
Yamase, it's possible that the authorities
have been manipulating information.
Sion!
Not another word.
We work for
You are suspected of being a malcontent.
We aren't taking you to
the Bureau of Public Security.
A correctional facility
Let go of me.
Let go!
Let me go!
I said let me go!
Mom
Mom!
A Sampo?
Keep an eye on the suspect.
Rat?
Where's the key?
I-Inside pocket
Rat!
Hang on tight!
Tsk, remote controlled?
Rat?
Get ready to jump!
Huh?
Superfiber cloth?
Let's go.
Rat Hold on!
Shut up! Follow my lead!
Get rid of it!
Huh?
They can use your ID bracelet to track you.
Get rid of it!
But this has my identification number
Get rid of it!
He'll buy us some time.
Rat
Where are we supposed to go?
How can we escape?
We use that.
What is it?
Thanks for saving me.
Didn't you notice?
Notice what?
I'm taller than you.
Liar.
Doubt you've had much to eat.
You're all skin and bones.
Hell, you'd be too embarrassed to
take off your clothes with a lover.
Th-That's none of your business.
Have you even seen me naked?
What if I said that I have?
Rat
Have you been watching over me this entire time?
What do you mean?
Don't play dumb!
You arrived at that precise time,
as though you knew this would happen!
I'm not that bored
Then explain yourself!
If it doesn't make sense, you refuse to budge.
You're always looking for
explanations and elaborations.
You know nothing about me.
Don't patronize me!
I just want answers.
Why did all this happen?
What will I do now?
I can't move, when I've lost all direction!
Move!?
I don't want to hear any more
of that naïve bullshit from you!
Those guys can crush us like bugs.
Don't forget that.
The gate
This won't work, Rat.
We can't pass the checkpoint without an ID!
Shut up and watch!
It's impossible, Rat
We won't make it in time!
Get down!
Huh?
Get down!
Let's go.
This is a waste disposal facility?
A fitting way for a rat to travel.
You a fan of scuba diving?
We're going to dive?
Into that?
He'll show us the way.
It's too early for napping.
We're only halfway there.
Giving up already?
Sion, we made it.
Oh
Sion.
I apologize for the wait, Your Majesty.
Welcome to the real world.
Rat, why do you hate No. 6?
This is a dump for that holy city.
No. 6 prospers by unloading
anything unsanitary here!
Put that thing away, Rat.
Sion, do you regret your decision?
Yamase's dead, but I'm alive
This is my punishment!
What is that place
Rat No more
Let me die
Just you wait, No. 6.
Life and Death
I will expose the hidden infection within.
