Well, that was close!
Because I went behind the counter without asking, they almost called the cops on me.
Yamori-kun, is that strange woman the...
Uh, yeah.
The detective who kills vampires.
Thought so.
Did you come all the way here to kill us?
Well, that's right.
But Hatsuka Suzushiro, I got no business with you this time.
First, I'll kill Akkun.
Then I have business with you, Mahiru Seki.
You hear that? Akkun, what you gonna do?
Sounds alarming.
Akkun-san, you should run. She's--
H-Huh?
Why?
Aren't those mine?
Exactly. These are your glasses.
I'll give them back.
Ah, so these were really it.
I stabbed you! I stabbed you!
Hey, does it hurt?!
S-Stop!
Oh, don't get too close.
That's dangerous.
I have a no-kill policy for humans.
Now, Akkun.
It must hurt like hell, so you're in no state to speak,
but I gotta ask you something.
Since vampires can't die this easily anyway.
Who's the vampire that made you into an offspring? Answer me.
Miss Detective.
Don't you think the odds are against you fighting three vampires?
It went through? They can do that too?
I don't know why you target us, but you're causing us trouble,
so can you stop?
Your existence is what's troubling.
Seri-chan.
Take off Akkun's glasses for him.
He'll probably feel a little better.
Okay.
- Akkun. - Akkun-san!
So you knew.
It's not like I knew, but I had a hunch.
But I'm sure now thanks to you.
A vampire's personal items when they were human can become their weakness.
The stronger the attachment to it, the greater the effect.
That one time too.
You dig up people's past. Can't say that's a great hobby.
It's my job as a detective.
Then we'll be going now.
You don't need to kill me?
We have no interest in killing people.
Unlike you.
You do this again, I'll kill you!
It's pathetic, but it looks like I have to admit defeat.
Yeah, whatever you say.
She said, "I got no business with you this time."
So, next time we meet...
Yamori-kun.
How's Nazuna Nanakusa doing?
And Mahiru Seki, I have something to ask you.
Is Kiku Hoshimi...
No, that's okay for now.
Wha...
Let's go, Mahiru-kun.
Kiku Hoshimi,
she'll die by my hands.
My wounds are healed.
Yamori-kun, um,
thank you for your blood.
Won't Nazuna get mad?
She won't like anyone else sucking your blood.
It's for Akkun-san, it's no problem. I'm sure she'll understand if we explain.
I'm sure she won't get mad--
You let someone else suck your blood.
I apologize.
Ko, sorry. It could've been my blood too.
You don't need to worry about it.
You should!
Now, now.
Plus, vampires have a one-year rule.
A one-year rule?
From the first day getting your blood sucked,
any human who can't become a vampire within a year can never become one.
R-Really?
Yamori-kun.
I'm sorry, you saved me again. Thank you.
It's okay.
No, it's not.
Now, now.
I'll hear any complaints later. Right now, we need to share information.
Nazuna, how much do you remember when you were human?
W-What do you mean?
Yamori-kun, we generally don't like to talk about our human pasts.
I can finally understand why. We sensed it intuitively.
The danger of others knowing our weakness.
Plus, we forget.
You forget?
Us, vampires, forget the time we were human little by little.
Niko-chan said that becoming a vampire is close to being reborn.
Which means that damn detective's digging up our past to look for a weakness.
Or she already has it.
We should get rid of any potential weaknesses.
How 'bout it, Nazuna? You remember anything?
It's difficult to answer. My bad.
No, that's not it.
Hm?
You guys all remember a little of your human pasts?
Hm? Yeah, I think I remember quite a bit.
Me too.
Well, the thing is...
I can't remember even a shred of when I was human.
Sorry for all barging in.
Nah.
Thank you, I feel much better now.
See ya, Ko.
Hey you, was it Akkun?
Uh, yes.
You sucked Ko-kun's blood, so make sure to live long.
Alright.
Seri-chan, you have those glasses from earlier?
Yeah. I know.
Okay.
See you, Nanakusa-san.
- Nazuna-chan! - Ko-kun!
Ko-kun, you can go first.
N-No, you first, Nazuna-chan.
Why? You go first!
Nazuna-chan, you liked someone--
Ugh, never mind! Stop, stop, seriously stop!
Why?
Well, because I have nothing more I can say about that.
Because you don't remember?
Yeah.
It's not that I can't remember, it's like I have no memories.
Well, but as long as I'm a vampire, it must be true.
Right.
I did want to ask her about it, but I never bothered to ask till now.
Even if I were to ask, this wasn't the timing I had in mind.
Nazuna-chan fell in love too.
Nazuna-chan doesn't even remember the person she liked.
Huh? What's wrong?
- Let's look. - Hm?
Let's look for your memories, your weaknesses.
I don't want you to die, Nazuna-chan.
These are the glasses from when I first met you, huh?
The ones where you tripped from getting drunk, and I picked up.
Yeah.
Thanks.
It hasn't been long since I became a vampire,
so I still remember most things.
But I'm gonna forget them someday.
Like the time when I first met you.
Or the day that I realized I liked you too.
I'll remember them.
So, you can relax and forget.
Because I won't.
Besides,
we can always make new memories.
That's why,
don't cry, Akkun.
Let's hang out, Akkun!
What do you wanna do today?
Anything!
Everything that's fun.
Let's reconfirm.
Find personal items from your human days that can become a weakness,
and destroy or burn them.
When you do, make sure to bring someone, and don't go alone.
- Yes. - Aight.
And whatever you do, don't get involved with that detective.
We don't even know how much she knows about us.
But it's not very fun to know that she has us by the throat.
We need to know our enemy too.
Oh, where's Kabura by the way?
I called her, but she's on a night shift.
What a hard worker.
What kind of job does she do?
Um...
Nazuna-chan, you really don't remember anything?
We don't even have a clue.
You really don't remember a single thing?!
We need to know for your own safety, Nazuna-chan!
Well, saying that isn't gonna help.
I mean, Ko-kun, think about it.
Can you remember 50 years ago?
Well, I'm only 14.
For example! For example, let's say that you're 60...
Is there a point in that example?
Even if I asked the 60-year-old you about 50 years ago,
I think you'd say, "Where is my dinner?"
That's just me going senile.
Are you at an age where your memory's fuzzy too?
Yes, I've been so forgetful lately...
Like, hey! Of course not!
Uh, was that a joke?
Ko-kun, you're young, so you don't have a super distant past, right?
Yeah.
Vampires all live pretty long, so we can't help it if we simply don't remember.
Hm.
What? How many years have you been living to start with, Nazuna-chan?
Wait, how old are you?
Well, um, you know my memory's--
That's of your human days, right?
Well, I don't even remember how I became a vampire,
and I can barely recall my very first memories.
Just the age range you remember, vaguely.
D-Didn't you ever learn that asking a woman her age is rude?!
It's an unavoidable topic.
Nazuna-chan, you care about those things too?
Well, yeah.
Are you maybe over a century old?
Probably around 30 to 40, I think.
Huh? What is?
My age.
What? 30 to 40? 30 to 40 years old?
That's... How should I put it...
a very realistic number.
That's why I didn't wanna say it! Because you'll respond like that!
If I were 100 or 200, it would've been cool!
But I'm just a normal hag!
Nazuna-chan, I think women who are 40 are still young women.
So considerate!
I thought you'd get grossed out if you knew my age.
Since liking a woman near the age of your mom would be tough.
She just said "like."
Nazuna-chan...
Nazuna-chan was being considerate of my feelings too.
But jeez, can't find anything that looks like a clue.
You're right.
Nazuna-chan, what were you doing 30 years ago?
What was I doing?
Your earliest memory was about 30 years ago, right?
What's your oldest memory?
This room. I woke up in my futon.
What?
I don't know anything other than that.
When I realized it, I was living my life like now.
I see.
A wallet?
Nazuna-chan, we might find something.
THIRD KOMORI HOSPITAL
A hospital patient ID card. The last date was about 30 years ago.
Ko-kun.
Yeah.
I wonder if I'm ill?
THIRD KOMORI HOSPITAL
I came to a place like this?
You don't remember anything?
No memory whatsoever.
Let's just try going in.
Whoa, this place gives me the creeps! How scary!
Right, Nazuna-chan?
Nazuna-chan?
What's this feeling?
Don't tell me...
Ko-kun.
Shit. This place...
is definitely haunted.
- Hey! - Let's just take a look around.
You don't believe me?! I'm serious, I have a sixth sense!
What's a sixth sense? You can see ghosts?
I've seen one before! It's true!
Really. What did it look like?
Wh... L-Like some woman was floating!
What?! But this is the 4th floor!
You float too, Nazuna-chan.
Jeez, you don't believe me at all!
Well, it's not about believing you or not.
When I told you about the seven school mysteries, you wanted to go.
Well, those are like for adventure. This is the real deal!
There are no ghosts in haunted house attractions! You listening?
You hear that?
What? Q-Quit joking.
That's so typical...
Let's go home, Ko-kun! Let's just say there was nothing here!
We can't do that.
What's scariest for us isn't a ghost or a vampire, it's a human.
We'll get caught for trespassing.
In that case, carry me and run.
There might be something related to you here.
I hear it from above. Let's go!
You serious?!
Quiet down.
Wait, huh?
Kabura?
What are you two doing here?
K-Kabura? Why do you have a nurse uniform on?
Well, it's my job, I have to wear one.
Y-Your job?
Is this one of those kinky shops?!
Be quiet, Nazuna.
Kabura-san, do you mean you work at this hospital?
It's not a kinky shop?
I'm registered as a nurse here. How rude.
N-No way! Kabura, work for others?
You, who looks down on everyone besides yourself?
You seriously are rude. And is that how you see me?
What's the matter, Nazuna?
Lo... Long time no see. Are you doing well?
Well, I'm well, although a lot happened.
And so, I found this thing, but you know anything about it?
This.
Nope, plus there's no name on it. Maybe it's not yours.
I see.
Would a person have another's ID card? I think there's a meaning behind it.
Maybe it fell out of the wallet of a human you brought over to suck blood.
It could be anything.
If you have no business, go home. Or I'll call the cops.
I'm a busy woman.
Tsk, I knew I didn't like her.
What are you hiding?
It can't be a coincidence.
A patient's ID card from 30 years ago fell out of a wallet?
And there's a vampire working at that hospital?
There has to be something.
O-Oh, right.
"Oh, right"? Think seriously.
Kabura-san, we are currently looking for Nazuna-chan's past, her memories.
If you know anything, please tell us.
If that's not possible, please allow us to search this hospital at least.
Only on one condition.
