Train in Simulated VR?
NOTE:
I suppose I'm lucky to have a proper bed...
NOTE:
Everything's rotting in here. I hope I don't become like this plant...
NOTE:
He still didn't do it?!
NOTE:
Finally! He did the dishes!
NOTE:
Home, hideous home...
NOTE:
The walls aren't even at right angles.
NOTE:
Brok cut my bed in order to make it fit in the room.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
I couldn't sleep...
NOTE:
Hmm... Maybe just a nap?
NOTE:
(Sigh) I want to but... I can't afford to rest any longer.
NOTE:
Everything left from my past... is in there.
NOTE:
I promised myself I won't open it until the day I leave this place.
NOTE:
Such a mess with his stuff... But how could it be any different?
NOTE:
He pretty much works all day, only coming back for sleeping and eating.
NOTE:
Oh, and cooking! He loves that for some reason.
NOTE:
Only clothes, bed sheets and things like that.
NOTE:
The examination board will be here any minute now... No time for rummaging through this mess!
NOTE:
...Nope, can't see anything that will help.
NOTE:
Uh... Is that flour? What's that doing here?
NOTE:
I must have used it for some project...
NOTE:
Hmm... Some clothes... Pen and paper...
NOTE:
Nothing will help me right now.
NOTE:
Clothes... Pen and paper...
NOTE:
I'll use that paper and pen Brok gave me a few years ago.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
He thought I could use that to practice handwriting.
NOTE:
I replied it was a stupid idea in this day and age.
NOTE:
But now I understand...
NOTE:
Let's see if I remember how to handwrite!
NOTE:
My stomach is in a knot... Eating can wait.
NOTE:
I don't really like these but I'll take it... Just in case.
NOTE:
I'll take another...
NOTE:
Hey... He didn't leave me any!
NOTE:
Music and me don't see eye to eye. I chose science over art.
NOTE:
Though I love AI-chip music!
NOTE:
Brok doesn't know but...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
I love hitting that sack once in a while!
NOTE:
We live in a dangerous area... Gotta be prepared.
NOTE:
Phew... This is tiring.
NOTE:
Seems like my training lessons paid off!
NOTE:
My very personal and totally outdated computer.
NOTE:
Nobody uses anything that big. But that's all I have, so I gotta stick to it...
NOTE:
Probably not the right time but... I could play in the Virtual VR Arena!
NOTE:
Should I train a bit?...
NOTE:
Phew... Good thing it's not the real experience! I don't have nine lives, just one.
NOTE:
I should train harder...
NOTE:
Nah... For Brok I need a more traditional way to send a message.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
I still can't believe it.
NOTE:
Because of him... I failed this test.
NOTE:
I'll never get my diploma.
NOTE:
Forever and ever... I'll stay a lousy Slumer... like...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Slumer: スラムのヤツ
I need to clear up my head.
NOTE:
Hey, maybe Ott is online? I'm craving for some Team-match game!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Ott: オット
Of course he isn't... I destroyed his invention. He must be so mad at me...
NOTE:
So... I also lost my best friend.
NOTE:
I guess he's preparing for his training course tomorrow.
NOTE:
Too bad... I could really use a friend right now.
NOTE:
"Parents ruin everything"
NOTE:
"Topic - I hate my parents!"
NOTE:
...I'm not the only one.
NOTE:
"I'm furious at the whole world"
NOTE:
"Topic - Dealing with bursts of nervousness"
NOTE:
Maybe they'll be interested in my own story.
NOTE:
What have I done...
NOTE:
In a few minutes... I've... totally destroyed...
NOTE:
All those years of studying...
NOTE:
I'm glad Brok wasn't there to see this massacre...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
I... I have to do something...
NOTE:
Is it too late to reverse this situation?...
NOTE:
(Cough, cough) Brok's... not here!...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
(Cough, cough, cough) Oh please... Tell me you (cough) hid a pill somewhere!...
NOTE:
What's wrong with me?...
NOTE:
He just saved my life.
NOTE:
I should be thanking him.
NOTE:
Why do I feel so angry?...
NOTE:
Despite what happened... I was able to rely on myself.
NOTE:
I should focus on the positive instead of blaming him.
NOTE:
I'm... a murderer...
NOTE:
And I can't tell him...
NOTE:
The only one I should be angry at is... myself.
NOTE:
I wish things were different...
NOTE:
If only... That accident didn't happen...
NOTE:
And... then my real father wouldn't have disappeared...
NOTE:
They abandoned me...
NOTE:
"I'm angry at everyone and I hate myself"
NOTE:
Woah... So many results!
NOTE:
Maybe I shouldn't worry so much.
NOTE:
I thought I was stronger than this.
NOTE:
Okay. Take ahold of yourself!
NOTE:
Brok is right. I'm still alive, and that's all that matters.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
Oh... The results for today's trial.
NOTE:
Great! {amount} points!
NOTE:
Finally some good news!
NOTE:
{amount} points. Not bad!
NOTE:
Oh no... {amount} points...
NOTE:
This day keeps getting worse...
NOTE:
With all that's happened, I actually forgot...!
NOTE:
Brok... He kept his promise!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
I... better find a way to apologize.
NOTE:
But I don't have the strength to get out...
NOTE:
And I can't send a message to his phone. He wouldn't notice it.
NOTE:
Bonus... points?...
NOTE:
Brok...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Brok: ブロク
For leftovers, that wasn't too bad at all.
NOTE:
Don't feel like sleeping yet.
NOTE:
Maybe Ott is online?
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Ott: オット
Oh yeah, I remember now. He's supposed to be at his trial this evening.
NOTE:
Hey, what's this?...
NOTE:
Someone left a message on the topic I wrote yesterday!
NOTE:
"I UNDERSTAND YOU. A TRUE PARENT WOULD NEVER DO THIS"
NOTE:
A text live conversation? From that same guy? Weird...
NOTE:
"YOUR OLD MAN IS LYING TO YOU"
NOTE:
"Lying about what?"
NOTE:
"HE WAS IN THE DRUMS YESTERDAY AND THIS AFTERNOON"
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drums: ドラム
"The Drums?... Impossible!"
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drums: ドラム
"HE LEFT A FEW MINUTES AGO"
NOTE:
"HE'S ALREADY OUT IN THE STREETS"
NOTE:
"Who are you? How do you know?"
NOTE:
"CONNECT YOUR PHONE"
NOTE:
"WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE"
NOTE:
I don't like this but... This guy knows things.
NOTE:
I should cooperate for now to pump him for information.
NOTE:
Hopefully I won't regret this...
NOTE:
"I'M TRANSFERRING YOU A TRACKING APP"
NOTE:
"You're tracking my old man?!"
NOTE:
"Are you some kind of hacker?"
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Hacker: ハッカー
"GO OUT AND FOLLOW HIM"
NOTE:
Darn. He logged out.
NOTE:
Oh yeah, I remember now. He's supposed to be at his trial this evening.
NOTE:
Hey, what's this?...
NOTE:
Someone noticed my search and commented...
NOTE:
"DO NOT WORRY. NOTHING'S WRONG WITH YOU."
NOTE:
No way! He's right!
NOTE:
There's something fishy about all this...
NOTE:
Where did you come from?!...
NOTE:
Have you been following me?
NOTE:
Listen. I'm sick of your little secrets!
NOTE:
What have you been doing?
NOTE:
Where were you, yesterday?!
NOTE:
And this afternoon, when I was about to snuff it?!
NOTE:
Well, I'll tell you. You were in the Drums.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drums: ドラム
When did you intend to tell me?
NOTE:
What are you hiding?
NOTE:
I've joined the police. Temporarily.
NOTE:
Actually... I was. It's over.
NOTE:
I'll tell you everything...
NOTE:
But please, not now. (Yawn) Way too tired.
NOTE:
Then just answer this!
NOTE:
What's the deal with you and those Squealers from earlier?
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Squealers: スクイラー
📖 Lexicon word for Squealer: (Not translated)
They tried to steal my belongings, so... I defended myself.
NOTE:
It wasn't just defending. You smashed through them like a pro!
NOTE:
Where did you learn to fight like that?
NOTE:
You don't remember?...
NOTE:
I wasn't always a detective.
NOTE:
Back when I met your mother... I was a boxer in fight pits.
NOTE:
Like... I always knew but...
NOTE:
Weren't they rendered illegal and shut down?
NOTE:
Then... What is it you do every night, exactly?
NOTE:
You're... a VR fighter?!
NOTE:
Why didn't you tell me?!
NOTE:
I... chose not to...
NOTE:
After the accident, things changed.
NOTE:
Doing money with illegal, violent activities...
NOTE:
This isn't what your mom would have wanted.
NOTE:
I wanted to be a model for you.
NOTE:
That's why I started my detective career. To start afresh.
NOTE:
But I soon realized this would never earn enough money to sustain both of us.
NOTE:
So... I had to go back to it again.
NOTE:
I'm sorry... I'm not the person you want me to be.
NOTE:
Are you kidding me?! That's awesome!
NOTE:
I'm not exactly a fight sports fan but...
NOTE:
I'll watch you next time!
NOTE:
So... You're not mad at me?
NOTE:
I just wanted the truth. Now it's starting to make sense!
NOTE:
I'm so silly. I should have figured it out considering how hefty you are.
NOTE:
Hey, you keep saying I'm fat!
NOTE:
Well, you've got a round belly, but despite that you're the strongest guy I know.
NOTE:
Ah ah. Yeah, even the biggest Squealer stands no chance against me!
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Squealer: (Not translated)
That's cool. I won't have to worry anymore that... Erm...
NOTE:
You've been worried for me?
NOTE:
Up until now... I've been relying on you.
NOTE:
But this is all gonna change tomorrow.
NOTE:
You know... When you're a Drumer...
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drumer: ドラマー
I won't be around, but you can always count on me.
NOTE:
Experience. You know...
NOTE:
It's not the first time.
NOTE:
Actually... You should probably train. Just in case.
NOTE:
I already do. When we came to the Slums, you said I should get stronger.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Slums: スラム
I followed your advice. I'm training regularly in addition to my self defense lessons.
NOTE:
I can tell you've grown some muscles lately. You're a man now!
NOTE:
Hopefully I won't have to use them...
NOTE:
Alright... I trust you.
NOTE:
No more secrets, okay?
NOTE:
Tell me you haven't hidden anything else from me.
NOTE:
I swear. No more secrets.
NOTE:
Life is too short... I don't want us to get into arguments again.
NOTE:
Look... Your birthday's in a few days.
NOTE:
How about I prepare something special for you?
NOTE:
Cool! I'll be looking forward to it.
NOTE:
But... If you don't eventually...
NOTE:
That's okay. I'll understand.
NOTE:
You know what? I can't wait to give you something.
NOTE:
...You don't like it.
NOTE:
No, no! It's just... A bit...
NOTE:
I didn't expect this.
NOTE:
Sorry. I blundered again.
NOTE:
I had one like this...
NOTE:
I've lost a lot of my memories from that time...
NOTE:
But when I saw it...
NOTE:
It's nothin'. I got it for free!
NOTE:
I figured It should belong to you.
NOTE:
That way... She can be with you...
NOTE:
I can't accept this.
NOTE:
I'll keep it for now.
NOTE:
Whenever you feel confident enough...
NOTE:
I'll return it to you.
NOTE:
It was nice of you to offer this though.
NOTE:
This is so you don't run out again.
NOTE:
That's... not what you expected, huh...
NOTE:
That's okay! It's useful.
NOTE:
You realize I already have one?...
NOTE:
Oh... I just meant...
NOTE:
It's a symbol. My home will always be your home. Even when you're a Drumer.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Drumer: ドラマー
Thanks... I appreciate it...
NOTE:
But you should keep it.
NOTE:
I also have something for you.
NOTE:
Ear buds. Shay wanted you to have these.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Shay: シェイ
So you can sleep better at night...
NOTE:
Thanks, Graff.
NOTE:
📖 Lexicon word for Graff: グラッフ
Whatever happens, I'll be there for your birthday.
NOTE:
I know. You don't have to say anything.
NOTE:
Oh no... I'm turning into my old man!
NOTE:
