A couple of reporters landed on the
island. The younger man tells his senpai to forget about it but the
older man says that he’s annoying when he [older man] has seen a smoke
there. He thinks that it is related to that mysterious explosion this
morning and this is news. The younger man says that their bureau chief
told them that they cannot go into an in-depth investigation on this.
The man scolds him for not having the spirit of a reporter. Then, he
notices a campfire that has been put out on the ground. He exclaims for
the younger man to look, in the end, there is someone there. Then, the
younger man says that he hears some moaning sound there. Suddenly, they
were attacked from behind by Xiang. Xiang pats off his hands and tells
Mei that he had made her wait. Mei is tied up and gagged. Taking off his
necktie from Mei’s mouth [and untying her], Xiang apologizes for his
rudeness and the plane is now prepared. Mei exclaims what he is planning
to do. Xiang carries her and says that if she won’t be a bit sincere,
he’ll kill those two guys on the ground. Seeing Mei staring at him,
Xiang asks what it is. Mei says that he can easily say things like
killing people, and today is the second time. Xiang says that for him,
it is very easy and that is how he had managed to live on. Mei looks
thoughtful. After Xiang puts her in the reporters’ chopper, Mei asks him
what he plans to do next. Xiang says that he is going to make her his.
Mei says that it is loathsome that someone else decides on that. Xiang
smiles and says that she also has no way of deciding. [<- I think
Xiang is referring to Mei’s indecision regarding the Shibata brothers]
Mei tries to protest about this, [is different from] that. Xiang says
that if, no matter what, she cannot become his.. Mei is surprised when
Xiang takes out a fan[/butterfly] knife. Mei dares him if he can do it,
then there’s no harm in trying. To her surprise, Xiang points the knife
to his throat. Mei shouts for him to stop. Xiang tells her that if he
loses her, there is no longer any significance for him to still exist in
this world. Mei tells him to stop pulling this really nasty joke. Xiang
lightly moves the knife on his throat and it starts to bleed. He tells
her that for him, this is very easy. Mei quickly holds down his hand
with the knife and shouts for him to stop. She tells him that he is
quite cunning. Thinking that she couldn’t refuse, Mei keeps telling him
that he is too cunning and despicable. Xiang says that even so, if he
can at least get her, he’ll willingly accept whatever filthy names she
gives him. Somewhat flustered, Mei asks him why he is like that (so
casual).
Then, Mei seems to have resolved on something. She says, “..but, I
think that it is impossible. I think you have no way of winning against
Shibata and Rihito-san.” Xiang says that they are already dead. Mei
exclaims that they are still alive and right now, they probably got
information about the unknown whereabouts of that plane. “With that,
this island will soon be discovered and then, they will immediately come
and rescue me. You can’t win if you are all alone by yourself.” Xiang
says that if one doesn’t try, one won’t know the outcome. He notices
that Mei is looking at him. With a serious look, Mei says, “If it is me,
we can win against them. *Xiang sweatdrops and mutters, what?* Always
thought..ya..I always thought that this will do. *clenches fist* Can
win! I can definitely win against Rihito-san and the others! First of
all, let us go first to..*whispers to Xiang*” Xiang exclaims but that
place is.. Mei says that if it is that place, even if it is Rihito, he
also won’t be able to think of it. Xiang admits that it is possible. All
fired up, Mei exclaims, “Okay! Then, according to plan, we’ll run away
for 5 days!” Looking at Mei, Xiang asks her what she is thinking. Mei
says that she will assist him, so he mustn’t easily say words like die
or kill, and it is also forbidden to force someone to die. After a
pause, Mei says okay, they have to quickly depart and they mustn’t let
Rihito and the others notice them. Xiang says okay. While the chopper
flies off, Mei asks if the fuel is enough. Xiang says that it is barely
enough. Mei tells him that she is going to sleep for a moment so she’ll
leave the rest to him. Xiang sweatdrops and says okay. Somewhat sleepy
Mei thinks that things are becoming more and more strange..but this is
the only way to stop Xiang from losing control. “I think ‘Rishu’.. no
matter how I think of it, she must be the one whom Xiang likes.. It’s
good if they can see each other.. *remembers Shibata brothers* if can
see..” Then, Mei has fallen asleep. Meanwhile, Rihito and others had
ridden a fishing boat to the island. Kento says that according to the
news from Nezu’s friend’s girlfriend P, there is a lost communication
with a couple of reporters who went there on a chopper.
Kento comments that it turns out that there is an islet there. Rihito
clarifies that it is a sea fortress, a man-made island made during the
Meiji era. Rihito calls Kento useless for not even knowing about that.
Kento is irritated over how Rihito is flaunting himself. Fujiko says
that about this, didn’t the Hongo family suppress the news from leaking
outside so could it be their work that chopper had disappeared. Kanzaki
says that it is possible but then, it might not be since he can only
think of.. He looks at Fei. Tami exclaims that it is to forcefully take
back this guy. Fujiko asks if it is Xiang. Nezu says that the
possibility is quite high. Fei mutters Xiang’s name and Kento exclaims
that surely Mei is alright. At the islet, the reporter says that they
were suddenly being attacked by someone but they weren’t able to see the
face, so who are they. The younger reporter tells him that is why he
told him that they should have stopped investigating. Someone tells the
reporters that for their safety, it would be better if they forget about
seeing them. Looking at the burned out bonfire, Tami says that this is
something that s/he and Mei had learned from Kanzaki. Then, Fujiko asks
Kanzaki and Rihito who were approaching if they found Mei. Kanzaki says
no for the plane and Mei are no longer here. Kento happily says that
since it is ‘no longer’, then that means Mei was there. Kanzaki says
yes, and they don’t know the whereabouts but what is left here is..Mei’s
uniform. Kento becomes tense and asks if that guy had.. Rihito tells
Kento that the thing between them is postpone for now.. Kento continues
it by saying that they must get rid of that guy.
Side story:
Rihito has prepared some breakfast for Mei but she is sick. After
diagnosing it as a cold, he tells her to rest and he’ll always be with
her. Mei tells him that he cannot for she’ll infect her. Rihito assures
her that butlers don’t get sick because of their training. So, Mei
sleeps while holding Rihito’s hand. That night, Mei is drenched in sweat
so Rihito wants to change her clothes. In her sleep, Mei calls for him
to come. Rihito says okay. After a while, he comes out and sighs that
Mei is still developing. Somewhere else, Izumi got sick but no worries,
Kiba has a special medicine that made her become better quickly. But for
some unknown reason she had a stomachache afterwards so she still has
to get well for a week. Kiba looks at a scroll and wonders what he did
wrong. Elsewhere, Aoyama thinks that he is a failure since Rika got
sick. Rika asks for some hot milk but he made ginger tea instead, since
it is better than milk when one has a cold. He comments that it is
always given by his grandma when he was sick. Rika says that it is rare
for him to talk about his past. He apologizes. Rika blushes and says
that in exchange for the hot milk, she wants to hear about his
childhood.
Somewhere, Daimon comments that in this era of many advances in
medicine, the cure for cold is still not discovered. Then, he scolds
Miruku to stop playing games. Miruku says that in exchange for that,
Daimon has to perform by singing to her. Daimon obliges and sings for
her to sleep. He wonders if it is because the cure for cold can’t be
made or is it because it isn’t necessary. In another place, Nezu
reprimands Fujiko for wearing thin clothes when it is currently winter.
He tells her that she isn’t young anymore. Fujiko is already 22 years
old. Wearing thick clothes, Fujiko laments that he is mean when she is
doing her best everyday so that he’ll tell her that she’s cute. Giving
her hot lemon juice, Nezu says that a furry Fujiko is also so
moe[/fascinating]. Then, Fujiko starts to shout about her love for him.
At some other place, Leon says that it is rare that Claris gets a cold.
Claris says that Kraus will always get a cold and if she knew earlier,
she would have treated him nicely but now, it is too late. Then, she
asks why Leon is smiling. Leon says that it is nothing but weak Claris
is quite cute, but then, not weak Claris is also cute. Claris tensely
tells him not to casually say cute. As for Tami, s/he doesn’t catch
colds and even wear short sleeves in winter. Unexpectedly, Sister Rose
is also sick so Sakuraba won’t give her any wine even if she wants it.
Later on, Kento asks Mei what happened while he was gone. Kento went to
Hongo residence for an errand. Mei says that it is very serious, the
whole class has been sealed off. Mei also says that it is a good thing
that butlers don’t get sick. To their surprise, Rihito suddenly faints.
Wearing a nurse uniform, Mei tells Kento that she’ll take care of Rihito
because Kento’s body is weak. Kento is jealous over what kind of
treatment Mei is giving Rihito. The nurse uniform is borrowed from
Fujiko. She checks Rihito’s forehead for fever. This wakes Rihito up and
tells her not to mind him. Mei asks what he is saying when she had
infected him. She says that occasionally, she also wants to do this for
him. Rihito looks at her and says that she looks so moe and he’ll die
[from this]. Mei says that he is sweating and that means, he is getting
better. She tries to change his clothes but he protests. Since she is
moping, Rihito finally to let her. Soon, Mei is having a hard time
unbuttoning his pajamas. Just when Mei finally manages to do it, Rihito
can’t take it anymore and faints down on her. She tries to tell him to
stop or else, his cold will get worse. He has already fallen asleep. Mei
decides to let him be and use her own body to warm him. While she hugs
him, Kento goes in with a medicine from Kiba. He is shock to see the
uncompromising position of the two that he angrily shouts Rihito’s name
and tells him to quit pretending to be sick. Mei scolds him that Rihito
is sick. Kento reprimands her for wearing that kind of uniform. Then,
they will give Kiba’s medicine to him which is said to be very
effective.
