Um... I'm not available right now, so leave a message, I guess! I'll get back to you when I have a chance.

[ She bows back, a curious look on her face as she straightens up. ]

Yeah! I wasn't expecting to meet anyone as nice as you in prison.

But, um... what is this about Ankh?

[yokubo]

Ah, thanks! [ His smile widened. ] You're really nice too.

[ When he remembered what he had to tell her, though, his cheerful expression did fade a bit. It would probably be upsetting to her, but it wasn't all bad either. If Ankh couldn't remember, that meant he wasn't entirely being himself. There had to be a way they could help him, right? ]

Well, I don't really know how to say it but... I think Ankh might have amnesia. He said he didn't know you or remember being Detective-san -- he even talked about himself like he was a different person. I really think he was telling the truth.

[dreiwuensche]

Amnesia? Oh no...

[ He did seem like such a different person when she talked to him. ]

No wonder he just disappeared completely.

[yokubo]

I know it sounds kind of bad, but if it wasn't his choice to forget then that means we can help him remember.

[ He looked a bit hesitant, but he kept smiling for her sake. ]

If we both promise to work together then we can't fail.

[dreiwuensche]

Right! It must be possible for us to do something.

Do you think maybe he was hit on the head? When that happens you just have to hit the person again, right?

[yokubo]

Do you really think that would work?

[ He looked like a light bulb had gone off in his head. ]

[dreiwuensche]

It's worth a shot!

[yokubo]

Right! Then we'll try it!

It should probably be me in case he gets mad, though...

[dreiwuensche]

Yeah, and I might hit him too hard and make things worse...

[yokubo]

You must be really strong, Hina-chan!

[dreiwuensche]

It gets me in trouble sometimes. [ Like when she got arrested. ] Shingo is used to it, but if he doesn't remember anything...

[yokubo]

But it has to be helpful too, right?

I wonder if the familiar feeling would work better...

[dreiwuensche]

Hm, do you think so?

[yokubo]

Maybe! He didn't know me before, so...

[dreiwuensche]

Then I'll try it! It could be just what he needs.

We should use something that's not too heavy, then. A book or a frying pan.

[yokubo]

Would we get in trouble for using those things?

[dreiwuensche]

Not if we're using it to help him!

[yokubo]

If you're sure, then I'll trust you!
