''Episode 7: Grotesque Drills''
l really caused your sister some trouble...
lt's alright. Don't worry about it.
l brought what you asked for.
They really trashed your place, but most of it was still there.
'Cause it's no use to them.
--She's the Tennozu Group girl? --Yeah.
Saiga. You sure about this?
These guys have connections with top politicians and cops!
Just give that girl back and go back to being a cameraman!
Little too late...
...to go back now.
''Office Closed''
Beautiful...
Such beautiful teeth...
Allow me to polish them even more!
Doc.
Think you can pay your tab now, including that one?
Keep up the good work.
''Special Services''
''Special Services'' What the hell, Commissioner?!
What the hell, Commissioner?!
Why'd you let all those punks go free?!
They clearly violated the Weapon Control Law!
T-they didn't go free...
lt was their first offense, so they were released on probation!
Sentenced after only three days?! Huh?!
lt's true! And we were asked to stay out of this incident entirely...
All you do is say yes to everything officials say!
Do you have any intention of protecting this city?!
All l have is a house loan and my daughter's tuition, yes...
Bitch!
Quit wasting my time, punk.
C'mon. l said tell me everything you know.
We were just told to catch some dude named Saiga...
That's all l know! Honest!
So where is this Saiga?
l haven't heard word that he's been caught yet...
Shall l self-defense you?
What the hell's going on?
The attack on his apartment...
The underground fire he told me about...
The late-night shooting at Odaiba...
lt's all being treated like nothing happened!
And then... there's him...
Whoever l ask, wherever l look, l can't find him...
What's going on?!
Where did you go to, Saiga?
Go right ahead.
W-what are you doing?!
Develop it. ASAP.
Eh?
All of it?
Yep.
Wow! lt's so pretty! What area is this?
The Shimoda area. l'm sure you heard about it in history.
lt's where the Black Ships first arrived.
You've been across the ocean before, haven't you, Saiga-san?
Yeah.
l've never left Japan.
Actually, this is this the first time l've ever left the Kanto region!
Don't class trips go to pretty faraway places these days?
l was never allowed to go. l have no memory of family trips, either...
My family is strange. My mother hates me for some reason...
That's right! The other day, when l floated with you in the ocean,
that was probably the first time l ever left land-
What's wrong?!
l'm sorry. My head just suddenly-
You alright?
Yes. l should be all right if l rest like this for a while.
Okay, then.
While we're on the subject,
this acquaintance we're seeing is a doctor.
l'm hoping to have him check out our bodies.
l'm so sorry... lt's all my fault...
lt ain't anyone's fault. Quit beating yourself up.
Yeah?
Tsujido!
A big-shot with the Traffic Division.
They went south on the Tomei Expressway.
The N-System caught them getting on the 246 from Gotemba Center.
So, when will the club be reopened?
Any day now.
You'll be given a free invitation when it is.
Thank you.
They're in lzu. We'll meet up there.
Got it.
Doc. You'll get to see your new patient very soon.
Guess your nose is no match for technology, either.
l'd be going insane by now if l smelled dozens of kilometers ahead.
''Ryogoku Medical Clinic''
Doctor...
Doctor Ryogoku!
He not here?
Who's there? Hold on a sec.
Doctor! lt's me! The cameraman, Saiga!
Saiga?
Oh, it's you!
You closed your clinic?
Yeah. l decided to go back to an NPO.
But what about your wife?
Died. Three months ago.
Cancer.
By the time l got back to Japan, there was nothing l could do.
She never once complained. She was more than l ever deserved.
Talk about pathetic. Didn't even realize my own wife was sick...
l'm sorry...
Anyways, what brings you all the way out to see me?
l somehow doubt you came to show off your young girlfriend.
l can't give any details, but l want you to run tests on our bodies.
Our blood, cells, even our DNA, if possible!
Whoa, now. X-rays are about the most l can do here.
You'd need to go to a big hospital for anything more...
Think you could manage something with your connections?
Alright.
lt's you. l can't just say no.
l'll try asking a colleague's hospital.
Thanks, Doctor!
Done yet?
There's still a tiny bit left...
These photographs...
Saiga Tatsumi-san, isn't it?
He was at that scene, too...
You've heard of him?
There aren't any photographers who haven't.
Every single shot is a masterpiece.
His photos are filled with world history.
A world l can't even begin to imagine...
Umm...
What kind of person is Saiga-san?
Saiga?
Yeah. Could you tell me?
l want to know more about him...
l didn't know anything about him...
Well...
There was only one time he talked about himself.
lt was over 10 years or so ago.
One day, this kid shows up out of nowhere.
Says he'll pay his own way to a war zone if l buy pictures he sends...
That kid was him.
At the time, l was taking on the world with a weekly social magazine.
Evidently, he caught wind of that.
So whadya say?
You gonna use me? You gonna pay me?
Get it in by tonight's deadline! Got that?!
What would you go to a place like that for?!
l'm a cameraman.
l wanna give my life for photographs, like Capa and Sawada did!
To be honest, l was shocked.
Shocked such a person existed in this age where money is everything.
Shocked there was a kid who'd flat out give his life for something...
Before even half a month could pass,
he really did start sending photos from the battlefield.
Just as he said, he risked his life to wander war zones day after day.
He is a foolhardy man,
so his photographs from the front lines quickly garnered attention.
Pleased to meet you, Mr. Saiga!
l heard you're going on the search-and-destroy mission.
Oh yeah, l'm Sid. With the U.S. News Service.
Hey, Sid! Nice to meet you!
l can't get a scoop all for myself!
l'm gonna take advantage of your fortune!
There's talk that your unit always comes back alive.
Everyone's just superstitious, that's all.
Nothing certain in this place.
l don't get.
l'd understand if he had a gun on the battlefield...
But what point is there in taking pictures?
lt might not be much of an answer,
but a war photographer is a living witness to history...
No, not the photographer. The pictures he risks his life to take.
A cameraman on the battlefield doesn't give anyone an advantage.
lt's show time!
Nor does it save any lives.
Even in places littered with land mines,
he'll rush on ahead to photograph the charging soldiers...
They're getting there before l do!
Hey!
...just to lose his life all too easily.
Their photos have no use whatsoever on the battlefield.
But when they reach the eyes of the people far away,
and when time has passed and everyone has forgotten the truth,
their photographs begin to shine...
Just like us, whoever sees those pictures will be deeply moved
and bear witness to the same moments in history that they did.
All done.
Okay...
Saiga-san's way of life is so intense that l don't really understand it.
Yeah...
There's really no way to understand the extremes of the battlefield
without having been there yourself.
As you grow used to war and seeing dead bodies,
your body and spirit grow weary from the endless fighting
and something within your mind starts to go numb...
Subsequently, he suffered near-fatal injuries
and was well on his way to becoming a cripple at a shabby clinic
when he was saved by an NPO doctor named Ryogoku.
l forced him to return back home.
But now l regret bringing him back.
Regret?
When he came back here, his eyes were dead.
The battlefield was where he truly lived.
So the lens and focal distance does change its strength...
A dormant, hidden desire within you has become reality.
What're you looking for Saiga for?!
That's none of your business.
He was-
-investigating a certain secret club.
Secret club?
Were you bored of me, too?!
Stop the car.
l've found you, Kagura-sama!
Can l have a word?
That's a good boy!
Does the girl have any family?
Family? No, she doesn't.
ls something wrong with her?
l see.
Then l'll tell you.
See it? This shadow here? lt's most likely a tumor.
lt's quite large, and beginning to press against her brain.
lt's in a spot where it can't be removed.
So then-
l'll be frank. She has at most, half a year to live.
l'm all jittery, like a horse's tail
Someone comes from afar
and softly chants, ''Oooooo,'' while reading a thick book
l'll try asking him
about the future you bear
even though he probably won't know either
l wish the morning sun would just burn away
but the clock that announces the start of the new day would stop too
