Did you see that?

To him you're just another girl

Of course I realise that

I don't care if that's the way it is

So leave me alone, okay?

We don't think it's an outside job

but someone inside killed him

Simply put...

everyone present in the residence

that night

is a possible suspect

If no one left

after the murder

then we would lose our lead

Luckily there's a girl in Tokyo...

Shut up

I have memorized it

I only paused to create the mood

Are you serious about the rehearsal?

Let me play my role properly

Sorry

Right... once again

Everyone's using it

It's been washed

Women again, sorry

Since you know the time

Look real nice in a bath robe

Sorry about last time

I was badly scolded by Godai

He paused intentionally to create mood

yet I prompted him

I really wanted to help him

but he doesn't need help

You like him

He... he's my first man

so I am trying hard to like him

Not a bad way to start a relationship

It doesn't seem to work

Is it my fault?

Nothing one could do about it

I asked him to sleep with me

- Similar to that time with you

- No

I really wanted to sleep with you

Thanks

Right

Where's your friend who gave up acting?

That friend you told me about

Although he quit acting

he fell in love with an actress

So I gave up too

What about the maid's role?

There are many substitutes

Sorry to have let you wait

After you see the house

I'm sure you'll like it

What house is this?

First and second floors are rented out

separately

It's a wooden house made 20 years ago

There's a bathroom and toilet

the rent is 65,000

It's not only cheap

but unbelievably cheap

The lucky bit is that the rental is

for the second floor

Why are you bringing me here

to view the house?

Just take a look while you're here

Please go in

It was rented out to foreigners

It's become a suite

The bed could be placed here

it's a great feeling

I see

but I don't have that much money

besides, I have no plans to move

You only need to pay

what you're paying for rent now

I'll pay the balance

What do you mean?

Shall we live together here?

You and me?

We could sleep in separate rooms

we'll use a curtain to separate us

I promise

I'll not intrude into your area

It makes economic sense

to share the unit

and the food, electricity and gas

Come and look

Isn't it spacious?

Great huh?

Who's going to do the cooking?

While you are still an actor,

I'll do the cooking

No problem

What do you mean while I am still

an actor?

Sorry to have to say that

What are you going to do if you don't

get famous?

I ponder over that almost everyday

Maybe I am not that talented

Wait until you are convinced

then you'll marry me

Who knows when that is going to be!
