Chapter 27 : One More...

Fukubei: Yoshitsune.
	Maruo.
	Mon-chan.
	Keroyon.
	Donkey.
	Otcho.
	Kenji.
	These were the members who knew the scenarios you created...

 - Page 98 -

Fukubei: And me...
	Plus one more...

Kenji: W...  who was it, Fukubei...?!
	Who's the last person...?

Fukubei: In that old field...
	You guys always seemed so relaxed about it, so I went to go take a look...
	I was careful not to fall into any of the traps you set...

 - Page 99 -

Fukubei: Around the secret base...

Chapter 27 : One More...

 - Page 100 -

Fukubei: Inside was an old radio...
	Shonen Sunday, Shonen Magazine, Heibon Punch...
	And a sketchbook...
	This is what was written on the cover.
	"The Book of Prophecy"...
	On those pages, danger assaulted the earth over and over...
	Many plans of the evil organization that plotted world domination...
	...and then...

<<Boy: Let me see that.
	I'll keep it a secret.
	Let me see that.

Kenji: Who was it...?!
	Who was that last person?!

Teacher: Hey, Kenji!!
	Everyone's remembering the school trip to Nikko.
	You should join in.

Kenji: Huh...?
	Sensei...  when did you get here...?

 - Page 102 -

Teacher: I've been here for a while.
	You haven't changed a wink, Kenji.
	If you don't pay attention to the blackboard, I'll throw chalk at you!!
	Oh yes, Kenji, I saw you on television.

Kenji: Huh?

Gucci: Oh yeah, I saw that music program.  Among all those other performers.

Nobuo: Are you still playing in that worthless band?

Kenji: N... Nah...
	T...  that was over 10 years ago...

Teacher: Those weren't the kind of clothes to wear in front of others.
	I thought you'd get arrested by the police or something.
	Speaking of police, a detective came to visit me...

 - Page 103 -

Gucci: Did some incident happen or something?

Teacher: Mm...  no, not exactly...
	He asked if I remembered anything about this class...

Gucci: Wait a minute, did anyone here commit murder?

Teacher: ...which reminded me...
	Do you all remember?
	The spoon-bending controversy.

People: Ohhhhh!  Yeah, I remember!!
	Huh?  What?  What?
	When all the lunchroom spoons were twisted...
	Yeaaaah, and no one could eat...

 - Page 104 -

Teacher: No matter how hard I tried to remember...
	I couldn't recall who it was that did it.

Men: Huh?  Who...?
	Who was it?

Teacher: No no, you don't know.

<<Teacher: Okay, everyone close your eyes.
	Who was it that bent the spoons?
	I'm not angry, just raise your hand.
	That will be the end of this whole ordeal.
	Now, who did it?

 - Page 105 -

<<Teacher: I see, I see.
	Okay, open your eyes.

Teacher: Actually, I can't even remember...
	Who it was that raised their hand...

Gucci: Why don't we try it one more time, sensei?

Teacher: What?

Gucci: Have everyone close their eyes...

Man: Yeah.  Maybe the culprit's here at the reunion.

 - Page 106 -

Teacher: But you're too old for that.

People: Let's try it.
	Only you'll know, sensei.
	Yeah, yeah.

Teacher: Oh...  okay then.
	Why don't you all close your eyes, then.

Men: This should be fun.
	I wonder who it was?

Teacher: Now, don't open your eyes at all.
	Who was it that bent all of the lunchtime spoons that day?
	I'm not angry, just raise your hand.

 - Page 107 -

Teacher: Hey, don't open your eyes over there.
	Ohhh, so it was you...
	Why did you do that?
	More importantly, how did you bend so many spoons at one time?
	Well, that's okay...  open your eyes, everyone.

 - Page 108 -

Man: Hey, who was it?!

Gucci: So the culprit IS here!!

Nobuo: C'mon, c'mon.  Fess up!!

Maruo: Who?!

Man: Who was it, sensei?!

Teacher: And now, this entire affair is closed!!

People: Whaaaat?!  Now I feel kinda unfulfilled!!
	Ahhh, forget about it.  Drink up!!

Gucci: C'mon, let's hit ONE more!!  Class rep's order!!

Man: Hey, that's enough already!!

Maruo: Kenji, Yoshitsune's totally out, man.

Yoshitsune: Bleaaahh!!

Kenji: Get him a taxi.  I'm takin' this guy home!!

Fukubei: Urrrrp!!

Guy: Seeya later, then!!

Gucci: One more!!

Man: Be quiet!!

Kenji: Whewww.

Kenji: Try to remember, Fukubei.
	Who was the other guy who saw "The Book of Prophecy"...?

Fukubei: Nope...  can't do it...
	Can't...  remember.

Kenji: Sigh.
	Hey, your phone's ringing.

Fukubei: Can't...  you answer.

Kenji: Whoa...  hold on, I can't answer YOUR phone...
	Er...  yeah, hello...

Woman: Come on, why don't you ever call anymore?

Kenji: A woman...?

Woman: You have other ones, don't you?

Kenji: H...  hey, it's a woman.

Fukubei: I always do that kinda stuff...
