P5

Guy: "Congratulations!"

Yoshitsune: "Eh…?!"

Guy: "Fabulous! You just won the fifth rank prize, free ramen for one whole year!!"

Yoshitsune: "What?! Great! Less food expense!!"

Guy: "You’ll receive it within one week."

Kaori: "You’re lucky, Shima-san!"

Yoshitsune: "And today I’ve finally bought a CD I had always been looking for…"

P6

Yoshitsune: "Lucky~!! Found 500 yen! What’s this crowd over there?"

Kaori: "I think it’s a fortuneteller that settled recently! It’s a talented woman, she’s having a great success. People came to have a look because she was mentioned in the newspapers."

Yoshitsune: "Eeeeeh. Kaori-chan, are you also interested in her?"

Kaori: "Absolutely not."

Yoshitsune: "Good."

Kaori: "Why?"

Yoshitsune: "I don’t like guys who earn money this way."

P7

Kaori: "Yeah, same for me…"

Someone: "STOP KIDDING!!"

Yoshitsune: "Wa… what the…?!"

Kaori: "It came from that fortune telling shop…?"

Yoshitsune: "Let’s check it!!"

Kaori: "Eh!?" /that guy is once again…/

"Because you said there was ’something you resolutely look at’ we were separated! Now my girlfriend won’t come!"

Yoshitsune: /I see… he wasn’t pleased with the result of fortune telling./ "hey!… !"

P8

Yoshitsune: /Woah! She’s so beautiful!!/

p9

Guy: "What do you want? It’s still my turn!"

Yoshitsune: "Your shameful anti-courtesy voice resounded till in the street!"

Guy: "What…?!"

Yoshitsune: "You come and judge the divination after it accomplished! If you have to come and complain afterward, you shouldn’t have come for your fortune at first."

Guy: "That brat…"

Kaori: "Shall I call the police?"

Guy: "Huh? Kyou? The model?!"

Kaori: "Its obvious you’re obstructing this business."

Guy: "Uh… damn!"

Yoshitsune: "Hey, are you alright?"

P10

Lady: "Yes, I’m fine."

Kaori/Yoshitsune: /Uuuh…?!/

Lady: "Thank you, you helped a lot."

Yoshitsune: "Such a low voice… a ma…"

Lady: "I’m a woman!"

P11

Lady: "My name is Hitachi Yuan. Call me Yuan!"

Yoshitsune: "I’m Shima…Yoshitsune."

Kaori: "My name is Suruga Kaori."

Yuan: "It’s Kyou-kun’s real name? Is Shima-kun also a model?"

Yoshitsune: "No, I’m the head of a jack-of-all-trades called Yorozuya Toukaidou Hopnpo. Kaori-chan is my assistant."

Yuan: "Really? But isn’t Kyou-kun busy already?"

Kaori: "It’s only on my spare time." And today is a day off

Yuan: "You’re beautiful even in real. Don’t you surprise your clients?"

Yoshitsune: "Watch out, Kaori!! That was close!"

Kaori: "You think so?"

Yuan: "You’re mean, Shima-kun!"

P12

Yuan: "To treat me as a dangerous person…"

Yoshitsune: "Eh? Sorry… but…No…"

Yuan: "I’m.jo.king!"

Yoshitsune: "You…"

Yuan: "But now it’s time for me to be back to work. I lost precious time with that client."

Yoshitsune: "Do you often have that kind of clients?"

Yuan: "Once in a while."

Yoshitsune: "Really, that guy, to take fortune telling that seriously…"

Kaori: "Didn’t he think it was absolute?"

Yoshitsune: "He’s wrong if he believes so."

Yuan: "But to say that…"

P13

Yuan: "Isn’t it being impolite?"

Yoshitsune: "But… wait… it wasn’t to mock you!"

Yuan: "Really?"

Kaori: "Weren’t you saying not to believe in fortune telling?"

Yoshitsune: "I… I mean you must act following your own purpose."

Yuan: "Enough."

Yoshitsune: "Eh?"

Yuan: "Shall we have a try? Let me tell you your fortune once. If it appears to be truthful, please give it some credit."

P14

Yoshitsune: "… okay."

Yuan: "It’s decided. Then, shall we see if you’ll have some luck?"

Yoshitsune: /ha… her expression changed!/

P15

Yoshitsune: "She looks like a man this way."

Yuan: "Don’t talk, I might lose concentration."

Yoshitsune: "Hu… sorry…"

Yuan: "One card spread, the most rudimental method. Draw out one single card, I will tell your fortune thanks to it."

Yoshitsune: "Well… this one."

Yuan: "…..! I don’t know if it is good…"

Yoshitsune: "What?"

Yuan: "This is the card you choose."

P16

Yuan: "The Tower. More precisely, the Tower of Lightning."

Yoshitsune: "What does it mean?"

Yuan: "Basically it suggest destruction. Here it can mean either theft, accident etc… troubles during your work. There’s something bad that is going to happen."

P17

Yoshitsune: "Somehow… now I don’t feel right …"

Kaori: "You said it was nothing to worry about. It would all be your doing. For example, if you came to be in trouble, it would be because of this card. And if a good card had been drawn out, everything good would happen thanks to it. People usually connect occurrences to cards."

Yoshitsune: "Yeah! You’re right!"

Someone: "More than that, watch out where you’re walking!"

P18

Kaori: "Shima-san!! Are you alright?"

Yoshitsune: "You… that voice just now!!"

Girl: "What? My voice startled you? Sorry! I was looking for a contact, and you stepped over…"

Yoshitsune: "Contact? Man… I was safe here!"

Girl: "Haa…"

Yoshitsune: "Okay I’m fine."

Girl: "Aren’t you angry?"

Yoshitsune: "No, I fell by myself!"

P19

Girl: "But now you’re all wet!"

Yoshitsune: "Woa!! I said I’m fine!! Don’t care about it!"

Girl: "It’s a present! Feel free to use it!"

Yoshitsune: "Thank you. Phew…"

Kaori: "Seems Yuan was right."

Yoshitsune: "Don’t mistake it with chance…"

"huh?"

p20

Yoshitsune: "I can’t find my purse! I still had it when I had lunch with Kaori-chan, then at the game center… after I bought this I must have put it… in my pocket… right? hm… maybe it fell in that water fountain…!?"

[yuan: "From now on, bad events will occur."]

Yoshitsune: "Hu~~" /It’s not a joke… I don’t believe in fortunetellers!/ "let’s check mails…"

p21

Yoshitsune: "Ho!! A mission came in!"

[mission detail

There is something I want you to take charge of for 3 days. I will give it to you tomorrow at 3pm, at the art museum of Saitama.]

Yoshitsune: "It’s a long job… yeah! I’m being lucky!! And if I also look for my purse, I’ll probably find it soon!"

Kaori: "So? Did you find it?"

Yoshitsune: "Don’t ask."

Someone: "But… stop that!!"

P22

Woman: "Pervert!"

Yoshitsune: "Hu? Hey! Wait! I did nothing!!"

Woman: "You’re the one who is exactly behind me right? You’re trying to deceive me…"

Kaori: "This person is a friend of mine. We were talking all long, and he had both his hands on the door. He could do anything."

Woman: "No way! Could you be… Kyou!?"

Kaori: "I am."

People: "Eh? Seriously?" "No way! I’m a fan!!"

Announce: "Kitaurawa! Kitaurawa!"

Yoshitsune: "Ha! Wait for me!!"

P23

Kaori: "Shima-san, are you okay?"

Yoshitsune: "Damn… a pervert… me, a perv… I wonder if that divination was right…"

Kaori: "You said it was impossible."

Yoshitsune: "Actually, when I went back home yesterday, a muddy dog wanted to play with me…"

Kaori: "But hey! We have a mission!"

Yoshitsune: "You’re right! It’s sufficient to have a job!"

Kaori: /He’s so simple!/

Yoshitsune: "The client must probably wait in the lounge on this floor."

Kaori: "Seems they’re not here yet."

Yoshitsune: "hn?"

P24

[For Yorozuya Toukaidou Honpo-sama]

Yoshitsune/Kaori: "Wha…"

Yoshitsune: "What’s…that…? Where is… the client…?"

Kaori: "And there’s no one here…"

Yoshitsune: "We don’t even know their face or name! Could it be… this is what we have to take charge of? Isn’t it? What an egoist thing…"

P25

Baby: "Kyaaaaa!"

Yoshitsune: "Woaa!"

Kaori: "It’s because you were shouting!"

Yoshitsune: "Please forgive me!"

Officer: "Misters! Please be quiet in the museum!"

Yoshitsune: "But this baby was abandoned here…"

Officer: "Really? Why in such a place…?"

Yoshitsune: "Ha…" /damn… the client may have troubles/ "No, it’s a joke."

Officer: "You! Please leave quickly and take him with you!! The museum is about to close!"

Yoshitsune: "So…sorry…"

Kaori: "What do we do?"

Yoshitsune: "The client said three days, we can’t leave him here… So first we get him back home…"

P26

Kaori: "Can you baby sit him?"

Yoshtsune: "I don’t even know what he eats…" /Ho! That’s it!/ "Let’s ask Yuan! She’ll probably know how to take care of a baby!"

Kaori: "Really? But the shop closed already…"

Yoshitsune: /Hu… it opened…/

Someone: "To use a dog was subtle. It seems it was effective!"

Yoshitsune: /…? There’s still a client? That voice…/

Someone: "He was mistaken for a pervert too…"

P27

Kaori: "!! Shima-san!?"

Yoshitsune: /No way! … That woman…/ "You deceived us!!"

P28

Girl: "Damn… we’re exposed!"

Yoshitsune: "That girl is the one at the water fountain… So you too cooperated…!! What the Hell does that mean!?"

Yuan: "First, take this back…"

Yoshitsune: "My purse…!!"

Yuan: "This girl is my little sister."

Girl: "Hello! I stole your purse when I was wiping you with the towel!"

P29

Yoshitsune: "Stop kidding! To use such mean ways! You build our belief! Isn’t it all just a trick then?"

Yuan: "Shima-kun… If I told you I don’t trust a Jack-of-all-trades, what would you do? I’m proud of being a fortune teller. I always work earnestly. It’s natural that I can’t forgive someone that denies it all this simply."

Yoshitsune: "I’m sorry. I apologize. But you should too, because you did something wrong."

Yuan: "I apologize."

P30

Yoshitsune: "Alright! Now we can be friends!"

Yuan: "Ff… Shima-kun! You’re so cute!!"

Yoshitsune: "Kyaa!"

Girl: "You look depressed, Kaori-kun. You still can’t trust us?"

Kaori: "I trusted you, before. I don’t like fortune telling, and I absolutely can’t approve you."

Yoshitsune: /…Kaori?/

P31

Yoshitsune: /That’s bad… I couldn’t persuade Kaori to see things like me!/ By the way, Yuan! Could you take back this baby?"

Yuan: "…? What do you mean?"

Girl: "We don’t know this baby!"

Yoshitsune: "Wasn’t it you who left him to us? Since you’ve been tricking us all along, I thought it was you… It’s a real mission then…"

Yuan: "Shima-kun, let’s draw cards once again. Since the first one was fake, we’ll do it seriously."

Yoshitsune: "hu? Okay…"

P32

Yoshitsune: /Somehow I feel awkward… It’s not like I can’t do what I want to./ "well, this one. Yuan?"

Yuan: "I don’t want you to take offense, but…"

P33

Yuan: "The card you draw out without a trick is the ‘Tower of Lightning’…"

Yoshitsune: "…seriously…?"
