MatayoshiHey, Ryuji! Thanks for contacting me!
RyujiYeah... Well I'm still really in your debt.
MatayoshiDon't be so formal! How did things turn out for Erika?
RyujiThey let her out of the hospital pretty quickly.
MatayoshiOh is that right? That's great.
MatayoshiIt's been a long time since we talked. So how are you? Work going okay?
RyujiNot bad. Net security stuff. You know.
MatayoshiOh, that's terrific! That's really important work these days.
Ryuji...Anyway, Detective Matayoshi. There's something I want your advice about.
MatayoshiOh sure. What is it?
Erika...Okay, you're up!
MatayoshiHuh? What's with this guy?
Ryuji...Looks like a Digimon. Must have come in from Kowloon.
MatayoshiHe's going to pester the visitors here. Go on! Move along, you!
Player...!
ErikaThe target has spotted us. Go to Plan B2.
YuAh, sorry about that. That's my pet!
MatayoshiHuh? So even students have Digimon these days?
YuYes. Sorry, but would you mind grabbing him for me?
MatayoshiOh boy, what's the world coming to... Fine...
Yu...Ah.
Familiar PolicewomanHmm, it doesn't look dangerous...
Familiar PolicewomanBesides...it-it's kind of cute...a little.
Player(...Urk!!!)
PlayerIf she doesn't let me go soon...! I'm gonna blow my cover right through this avatar...!
Erika...Stay still! Don't move!
ErikaJust listen to me! Stay still!
Erika...Perv.
ErikaYou may look like a Digimon, but the perviness is coming off you in waves.
Player?!!!
Erika...I'm joking. Anyway, just stay still.
Player...?
MatayoshiHey! Date! Quit playing around and give that young man back his pet!
DateOkay...here!
DateKeep a hold on that Digimon of yours! Otherwise I'll have to take you in!
YuSorry about that!
MatayoshiGreat timing. Let me introduce you, Ryuji. This is my co-worker, Date.
MatayoshiYou two are cut from the same cloth. I thought you should meet.
DateHey there...
RyujiErr, nice to meet you, too...
MatayoshiShe looks weird, but she's a fine policewoman. You can count on her if you're ever in trouble.
MatayoshiDate, you too. Ryuji's got guts. I'll vouch for him.
Matayoshi...His only flaw is he's an unrepentant hacker. Ha ha ha.
Ryuji...Jeez, is it that obvious?
MatayoshiHe he, I'm an old man now... Who knows when my time will be up? You youngbloods will need to look out for each other.
DateWhat...?! Come on, you'll never die, Matayoshi! You're unkillable!
MatayoshiWho's talking about dying? I mean retirement! Don't put me in my grave before my time, punk!
MatayoshiHuh? ...Dammit.
DateHQ?
MatayoshiYeah. One of our informants tipped us on a fugitive hacker we got a warrant on.
DateCool! Maybe we can catch him red-handed!
MatayoshiSorry, Ryuji. You'll have to wait a little longer for that advice!
RyujiA hacker's involved? In that case, I'm coming too.
MatayoshiThat'll be a big help! Let's go, you two!
Yu...What about our plan?
YuHey! Where are you going! You're not planning on chasing them dressed like that, are you?!
YuThat's crazy! Hey!
YuHmph... Leaving me here like that...
Somewhat Kind Voice...Oh, just let them go.
YuBut...
Somewhat Kind VoiceYou can lend it to them for awhile.
Somewhat Kind Voice...Are those friends of yours? Don't worry, they'll come back to you.
Yu...I wonder.
Somewhat Kind VoiceThey will... I'm sure of it.
Somewhat Kind VoiceMy words are always true. Are they not?
YuI suppose so...
