Having lost love,
then showered with love,
Chiron bestowed love onto others.
His student Heracles was overcome with regret.
What did he think of him?
What would he have said to him?
Hey, wait up!
Come on!
Welcome.
Very good.
I have read your letter of introduction.
Starting today, this will be your home.
I will show you around. Wait here a moment, please.
I'm sorry. We had a sudden increase in children to take in this week.
Everything's a bit chaotic.
How did Chiron feel toward his student, who was so racked with regret?
What did he say to him?
Big brother, what's your name?
Did he feel rage?
Or resentment?
Or perhaps...
Listen.
You aren't a toy. Live your own life.
I'm Palan. What's your name?
News flash.
Another Sky 4
In last week's shocking shipboard shooting incident,
the culprits' whereabouts remain unknown.
Shipboard Signing Ceremony Shooting Victim Medokia's Minister Aslan
Today, the Medokia government issued
international warrants for the shooters and released their photos.
Has it already been six days?
This has been the hardest six days in my history as a concierge.
It has been difficult, hasn't it? All that paperwork.
It's been seriously crazy! And I've worked seriously hard!
After you went around fighting like that,
I adjusted things to hide our involvement.
I did that! I did good.
And the one who added two more soft, idealistic little jobs was also you, wasn't it?
I'm just fine with being soft.
Are you imitating Danica-sama?
It's perfectly fine to feign composure,
but if you don't return those books, the head librarian will be angry.
Oh, crap!
Ikuro-san, overdue books are frowned upon.
I'm so sorry! I was just about to return them!
Oh. This is...
Huh?
Oh, this? The one I wrote on is a copy, so the original is still safe.
I see. Thank goodness.
Yes.
Okay. I'm going now.
When you return, please tidy up your desk.
Try your hardest.
Next, we have some astronomy news.
Today, the Perseid meteor shower hits its peak.
Unfortunately, the weather is rainy, as predicted, making observation difficult.
A rain of sadness is falling on fans all over Japan.
The rain doesn't seem to be letting up.
Yeah, it's been raining for a while now.
Will it affect your work?
That depends on the location.
Of course.
Oh! This holster!
It's made of heat-blocking material,
so you can holster your gun after firing it, right?
Yeah. It's so handy, I use it all the time.
Lately, I've been taking more wasted shots.
There. Perfect.
Oh, that's right!
The other day, a certain guest mentioned something.
When you're caught in a sudden downpour,
a waterproof jacket can come in handy for protecting your weapons.
Oh. Yeah, I can see how it might be good to have a set of waterproof work clothes.
Then let's have some made up!
You often kill in close quarters, after all.
So, for example...
Izumiko-san, it's Haizaki.
Hey.
Liz-sama asked me to bring her suit for repairs.
You're quite snappily dressed today.
Another new order?
Well, you are number one for sales at this hotel, after all.
Hey!
Stop making it sound like I'm just a good talker!
I'm super first-class in talking, skill, and fashion sense!
If you're super first-class, then please collect appropriate compensation from our guests.
You're perfect when it comes to moving from casual conversation to a sale,
but when the top-quality materials you use exceed our guests' budgets,
you pay the difference yourself.
Do you realize how big your debt to this hotel has grown?
You aren't doing the work out of charity, are you?
There she is, the cool-headed concierge.
Robot! Stone-face!
You are very rude.
Seriously, how many times must I repeat myself?
Now, listen. The clothes a person wears make up a part of their dignity.
Human activity springs from three foundational building blocks:
what they eat, where they live, and what they wear.
Clothing, food, shelter.
Those are the things that make humans human.
Which means that there are as many types of clothing as there are people.
That's what keeps me captivated.
Which is why, as long as I'm doing the tailoring,
everyone, from contract killers to the people who work at this hotel—
everyone, without exception—must be garbed in the manner most befitting them.
There.
And that's where the fun begins.
As people eat, live places, and wear things, they change.
To live is to change.
When that happens, and they come to order new clothes,
that's the thing I most look forward to in my life.
There is no end. What can beat that?
Oh! It suits you!
You're adorable! The best!
May I take these off now?
Wait! Wait! Let me get a shot of you looking back over your left shoulder first!
Wait, what? This doesn't work for you?
You don't like it?
I will have problems if my private wardrobe grows any further.
Why do you tailor clothes for me without asking?
There's no need for such waste.
Waste? Now look, you...
One day, a time may come when you want to wear this, you know?
Allow me to wait for that day.
Is that a tailor's pride?
No. It's a personal pastime.
I prefer the clothes from before.
What? Which ones?
My infiltration clothes.
They had an elasticity that made them easy to move around in.
And they didn't tear easily, even when caught on a knife.
You mean those?
Oh, right!
This is more than enough.
No, not that. It's the uniform from the other day.
Oh. Thank you very...
much.
Ah, yes! The way you looked then was something else, too.
Izumiko-san. it's Haizaki.
Hey. What's—
wrong?
What happened? Did you go play in the water or something?
No.
Was there an attack?
No.
Did they call a Code D?
No.
Did a powerful enemy show up?
No.
Did you break your umbrella?
I closed my umbrella.
"The more it rains on me, the clearer it is somewhere else."
That's what a certain idiot said.
What are you doing?
I was wondering if they arrived safely.
Really, what are you doing?
Now that I'm this drenched, it feels good!
The more it rains on me, the clearer it'll be over there!
That's it! Let's go with that!
Hotel Inhumans.
Ow!
You all right?
Um... it hurts.
But this is, like... an important pain that I have to bear, you know?
But pain hurts!
Give me a piggyback ride, Cheta!
Piggyback! Piggyback!
We're almost there. Just tough it out.
Boo.
Oh, actually, listen to this!
The bullet hole is in exactly the right spot for the last star.
The tattoo is complete!
Hilarious, right?
Hey! Why're you laughing?!
How can I not laugh at that?
In the end, we've both got international arrest warrants, you know.
And they said there's a bounty out on us in the underworld, right?
Really? That means we're super popular!
We've got about a month left.
It's a job well done if we manage to live that long!
Oh! Did you see that?
I saw it.
Look! It's Sagittarius!
Yes, yes. I see it.
Hey, Chetana?
What should we check today?
We don't need that check to ensure our survival anymore, right?
But I guess...
there isn't really anything left for us to double-check.
Did you see that one?!
It was so bright!
Do you think they run into each other when they fall?
Hey, Chetana. Are you even listening?
There is one thing left to verify.
Oh, there is? What is it?
Actually, I feel like I could think of a hundred wishes right now.
If we're gonna do this, why don't we make wishes instead of verifying stuff, Cheta?
I love you.
I see. In that case, I...
I love you, Danica.
That's one thing verified.
You're kidding.
You need to verify that after all this time?
I know that! I knew it a long time ago!
Hey, Chetana.
I love you, too.
Cheta, this is crazy, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
You know... I was shot not that long ago, right?
Yeah. And I was looking down a scope in order to kill someone.
But you know, this feels like...
like we're just a regular couple, right?
It'll be twice as clear over there.
Yes, it will.
And so... you ended up drenched, too?
I thought I might be able to see a sight that only idiots can see.
It's rare for you to wish for anything.
Yes, you're right. I feel like an idiot.
Imagine my shock to find a soaking wet, drowned rat in front of me.
You said that concierges just drip with glamour.
I said no such thing.
You really seemed like you were having a lot of fun that day.
Maybe you've changed a little?
In what way?
Ikuro-san is calling me for help.
Hurry up and go help.
Next time it rains, be sure to use your umbrella!
As long as I am able to, I will.
Honestly... I wonder when she'll notice.
Oh, it's stopped raining.
Well, then... I guess I'll get to work.
It's way past time!
Where's my shift replacement? What...
What happened?
Perhaps there's been some sort of trouble.
I will take over. Ikuro-san, you may go.
If that's what happened, then I'll stay, too.
No need. Please leave.
It's fine. I'll stay.
No need to hesitate.
When you reject me like that, it makes me feel like I'm causing trouble for you.
Indeed. You are causing trouble.
What?! How?!
Rock, paper, scissors!
Cheating!
Sara-san, you have to be cheating!
Losing nineteen times in a row just doesn't make sense!
I haven't slept for three whole days since then, you know!
You're too soft.
I'm not interested in a string of musical scales
with no relevance to a concierge's professional duties.
It's called music...
Rock, paper...
Huh?
...scissors!
It really is a good song.
Truly... you say the most idiotic things.
Ikuro-san, what are your chances of success?
To be honest, pretty slim.
I'd say I'm "a little bit" confident.
He seems formidable.
Why didn't you allow him to die?
Well, I mean, I didn't want to let him die.
Not when he wanted to live so badly.
Is that what you mean by "soft and sweet"?
But... yeah.
If it is, then sweet is fine with me.
Sweet is fine with you.
So you did find the thing that makes this worthwhile for you.
You smiled.
