	Nobody's watching us.

Chapter 22 : Hero With a Guitar

Bums: Flow along, my friend.
	Probly dirtier than the River Styx, I think.
	Let us pray.
	Please go to heaven.  Amen...
	Please don't turn into a ghost.

God: So whatcha gonna do, buddy?

God: Looks like this guy gave up his life to come and tell you that...

Bum: You should forget about it.
	He said, don't go to the police.

God: I'd give up if I were you, too.
	Then again, I don't know what your old friend's entrusting you with in that letter.

Kenji: Donkey...

God: They don't sound like the kind of people you could do anything against.

God: Whatcha gonna do?
	Well, whatcha gonna do?
	Ah.

Bums: He ran off.
	No wonder.  That Donkey fella got killed.

Chiyo: Where were you wandering around this whole time?!

[To Kenji...]
[I pray this letter reaches your hands safely.]
[I'm in serious danger right now.  Please forgive the messy writing.]
[At first, I thought "Friend" was you.]
[So there were a few times I checked up on you.]

 - Page 19 -

[But you were working hard in your store everyday, with that child on your back.]
[You're not "Friend".]
[You're my old friend.]
[Who is "Friend"?]
[It's clear that he must be one of our old circle.]
[One of us who knew all the things you made up.]
[The situation is more dire than I thought.]
["Friend" is really trying to destroy the world.]

 - Page 20 -

[We made an oath...  under that flag...]
[That we would save the world...]
[So you're the only one...]
[Who can save...]
[The world.]
