Uncle, but...

- Who is she?

- I don't know.

I have to go now.

I'll tell you where I'll be.

I'll be at a cafe called 'Meals',

on Bansui Avenue.

Bye.

What's your theory,

Dr Imamura?

Some girl wants something

from Ozaki.

She probably wants his help.

It's none of our business.

Let's pretend we never heard it.

The girl wants Ozaki's help,

not ours.

If we'd turned our backs on you,

you would be dead.

- Men are suckers for girls like you.

- Excuse me?

- Japanese men love baby-faced girls.

- What's this about?

- Now, now, let's keep this nice.

- Who are you two?

- I'm a pinch hitter for Batter Ozaki.

- What Batter...?

You just called Ozaki for help,

didn't you?

Oh, I guess so...

You didn't know he was a

pro ballplayer?

Uncle Ozaki is a ballplayer?

- How old is Ozaki?

- Same as me.

'Uncle' makes him sound old.

What's Ozaki to you?

Uncle Ozaki saved me

about a week ago.

There's this guy who's been

stalking me...

and he was following me

on that day, too.

Uncle Ozaki was walking by and...

- He saved you.

- He's the man.

Those stalkers are relentless.

Uncle Ozaki said that when

he gave me his number.

He said, "Feel free to

call me anytime."

- He's smooth.

- No, he's heroic!

Maybe you shouldn't

trust strangers so easily.

I know, but...

- Is that the stalker?

- I think so.

Stay here. We'll go and

harass him.

Wait! This has nothing

to do with you!

Tadashi Imamura is pinch hitter

for Ozaki, batting order #4.

- Don't act crazy!

- What?

You think I'm not good enough

to replace him?

What's going on here?

Sendai registration...

It's Sendai, Ro-38...

You want to find a car owner

from a license plate?

- Don't you know how?

- Is it possible?

Is it going to be illegal?

Perfectly legit.

Go to the Department of

Motor Vehicles.

They'll give you the name, address,

and any information that's registered.

Wow, it's easy!

How was Ozaki's room?

It was kind of weird.

You're weirder! You just pumped iron

and didn't steal a thing.

How did you know that we broke

into Ozaki's condo?

Because I gave him Ozaki's address.

Because he's Ozaki's biggest fan?

Kind of.

Didn't you say that you were

the same age as Ozaki?

Right.

Mom and I watched him play in the

high school game on TV.

She said, "He's your age, but he's

thrilling crowds with his homeruns!

"How come you didn't turn

out like that?"

Oh, did she...

I have to say, I didn't study

much in those days.

I was busy picking up girls.

And then did you take those

girls back home?

So you were at your own bat!

- Wakaba, give me a break...

- What?

That was vulgar.

It was like some old drunk's joke.

What will you do when you

find the car's owner?
