Monster Volume 3 : Kinderheim 511 Chapter the Twenty-Fourth The Only Man Left - Page 181 - Secretary: You again?! I wish you would stop this already. Every time you come, I'll give you the exact same answer. The doctor has no relation to that prostitute!! And therefore... her murder has nothing to do with him!! Go home. Your persistance is giving me an idea. Lunge: An idea...?! Will you sue me for character assassination? No... you are a secretary, you would not do that. I'm sure you don't want Dr. Boltzmann connected to this. He IS a candidate for leader of the German Democratic Party next term. Secretary: Are you threatening me? Chapter 24 : The Only Man Left - Page 182 - Lunge: Of course not. I only want to know the truth. Chapter 24 : The Only Man Left - Page 183 - Detective: He's a tough one. Makes a good secretary for a major politician. Lunge: I'll just try again. Detective: Inspector Lunge... Do you really think a bigshot like Boltzmann would get involved with a prostitute like that? Lunge: She wasn't JUST a prostitute... [Her most previous client was Klein, the major financier. She can be connected to several figures in the financial world...] [She would make roughly five thousand marks a night. Definitely worthy of being labeled an "ultra" high class call girl.] - Page 184 - Detective: But there was only one person who saw the woman at the Berlin hotel Boltzmann usually stays at. You can't prove any connection between them with such unreliable information... Lunge: Have you deciphered her client list? Detective: Er... well, the encryption on her floppy disk is enumerated... Lunge: I'll do it. Give me the floppy! Detective: But, Inspector Lunge... aren't you already busy with the "Reichene Park Serial Killings" case? Lunge: Give it to me. Detective: I've always wanted to ask you something, Inspector Lunge... May I ask you a question? Lunge: What is it? Detective: Do... when do you sleep? Do you go back to your house? - Page 185 - Lunge: What does that have to do with the case? Detective: Huh...? Lunge: Those are irrational questions. Daughter: When are you going to tell him? Wife: It doesn't matter. He hasn't listened to anything I've said in years. Daughter: The sooner the better, mother! Wife: Please! Don't shout like that. He's in his room right now. Daughter: Oh, how uncommon. - Page 186 - Keyboard: *tap* *tap* *tap* [BKA, Wiesbarden] Man: Lunge... you're still working over that case of Parliament Member Boltzmann and the prostitute. Lunge: Is there a problem with that? Man: I'll say! We're feeling major pressure from bigshots in the German Democratic Party and the Interior Ministry. - Page 187 - Man: For your own sake, you shouldn't go overboard with this case. Lunge: Take it up with the chief, like you usually do. Man: Nope, I can't cover your ass this time. Lunge: I'm counting on you. Man: H-hey... Lunge!! What will you do if you somehow make a mistake with this ultra-coercive investigation?! You'll lose everything!! You've had a brilliant career up through this point in time... There's no need to rush your work. What... do you think you're doing this in the name of justice or something? Lunge: Rush my work... Justice... I am interested in neither. - Page 188 - Lunge: One woman has been murdered. I am only interested in the one who killed her. Man: Lunge!! Detective: Inspector Lunge... you have a visitor. Lunge: Hah, did it... Detective: Huh? Lunge: I cracked the code on her list of clients. If you follow these rules, you can convert all the names. - Page 189 - Detective: Ah... well... you see... It's THAT woman again... The Eva Heinemann one... Ah!! Who said you could come back here...? Eva: What do you think you're doing, Inspector Lunge?! I helped out with your investigation!! When are you going to arrest Tenma already?! - Page 190 - Lunge: You've been drinking quite heavily again. Eva: I can't stay sober thanks to you, you bungling, incompetent detective!! Lunge: At the moment, I have the case of Dr. Tenma solved inside of me. He says the director's murder 10 years ago and the middle-aged couple serial killings were the work of a man named Johan... But Johan is nothing more than another personality inside of him. From that perspective, this irrational case can be solved quite rationally. All I have to do is wait until the nation's police force captures him... Eva: You mean if you request an arrest warrant, your job is over? Lunge: There are many things I would like to ask him, should we meet. Dr. Tenma is a very... fascinating character. However... - Page 191 - Lunge: There is a pile of cases on my desk that need me. Pardon me. Secretary: You are so stubborn!! Give it a rest!! As I've already told you, Dr. Boltzmann had an alibi that night... Lunge: An alibi? Of course he did. That murder was professional work. Secretary: What are you trying to say? That he hired a hitman?! Absurd!! Lunge: We've decoded the woman's client list. - Page 192 - Lunge: Boltzmann's name was on it, as well as his phone number... Secretary: And because his name and number are there... means he has a motive for murder?! Lunge: That's as far as we've gotten... Secretary: I don't have time for this!! Leave!! Detective: We just don't have enough evidence, Inspector. Lunge: Are you familiar with the Schelhorn publishing company? Maybe you aren't, since it is a third rate publisher... They occasionally put out exposes on celebrities, which helps them get by, despite the scorn they receive for it. Their methods are quite dirty. - Page 193 - Lunge: They would even hire indecent women to forge relationships with famous figures, and force them to write memorandums... Taking caution would be intelligent, so as not to fall into that situation... Detective: Ah... Inspector Lunge!! Daughter: Pteh... Bleeagh!! - Page 194 - - Page 195 - Detective: Yeah, I feel a checkmate coming on! That secretary didn't even have anything to spit back. Detective 2: When did Inspector Lunge start using that little publisher bit? Detective: I'm amazed, honestly. He never rests his mind or body for a moment... it's superhuman. Detective 2: Superhuman... maybe he really ISN'T human. His lifestyle resembles anything but a flesh-and-blood human... Detective: OH, if I'd just moved there, it would be checkmate!! Detective 2: Hey, don't interfere in someone el... AH... Lunge: Don't waste your mind on this trivial game. - Page 196 - Lunge: A little threat made that publishing company president spit it all out. Get the record!! Detective: Y... yes, sir! Lunge: What do you think this memo book is? It's that prostitute's. The times and dates of all her rendevous' are all written down in detail... I can't figure this man's name out. All that's there is the initial "B". This is quite interesting. Almost like she's planning a book... Schelhorn had a contract with this woman to publish her life story. - Page 197 - Lunge: Oh... that's right. Have you ever contacted a man named Janka? He's a professional assassin, you see... Secretary: Get out of here. YOU GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!! - Page 198 - Wife: We're leaving you... Daughter: We'll have the larger luggage picked up. Did you know that I'm pregnant, father? Lunge: Are you going to your man's house? Wife: I am, too. You never knew I had a lover, did you? Phone: *ring* - Page 199 - Lunge: This is Lunge. Phone: It's me, Inspector. Mintach, Boltzmann's secretary. I'll tell you everything. Please come! Lunge: I see. I will be right over... I'm going out. I'll hear the details later! - Page 200 - Detective: I... Inspector!! Lunge: What is all this about? Detective: That... that secretary... Hahh, hahh. He's committed suicide!! - Page 201 - Man: "Dr. Boltzmann is innocent..." This is the note the secretary left behind. Inspector Caminsky is taking over this case, Lunge. As well as the Reichene park case and the Galland CEO murder... Lunge: And what do I have...? - Page 202 - Man: You have nothing. - Page 203 - Lunge: You're the only one I have left. - Page 204 - Detective: Er... I-Inspector... A visitor for you... It's Eva Heinemann again... Lunge: Send her in! - Chapter 24 Owari - - Volume 3 Kan -
