Where's Haruka-neesama?
She went out somewhere with Maki-chan.
So, what are you doing?
I'm a little hungry.
You're not going to find anything to eat there.
If you look hard enough you'll find food people have long forgotten even in a place like this.
Found some.
What is that?
What? Well, I've seen this box here before.
Or have I?
Which is it?
Well, that doesn't really matter.
I'm pretty sure this is...
...something amazing!
It won't open.
Give it up.
I won't give up!
Even if you say that...
You're still a child.
My great desire to have this open will create a miracle and give me the strength to open it.
Eh?
That's not possible.
Even if I were to use all my strength.
Help me out.
What happened to your miracle?
Please Chiaki, lend me your strength!
As if I would help an idiot like you.
Ask someone else.
Oh? Chiaki isn't curious to find out what's inside the box?
No. Not at all.
Is that right?
It's okay if I look at the contents myself, right?
A treasure, huh?
Perhaps there'll be picture of baby Chiaki bathing.
It's shut pretty tight.
Hey! Hold it down more firmly.
I'm holding it as tight as I can.
Ouch.
That hurt.
I hit my head really hard.
I hurt my butt here, dumbass.
Besides that...
Was there any treasure within the box?
Huh?
What the?
What was it?
What was inside?
Well inside was...
Huh? What was that sound?
Huh?
What's wrong?
I stepped on something.
What is this?
I wonder what this is...
You sure you don't remember seeing it before?
It's not that, but this glass rabbit is... I really don't remember.
It's not yours?
Nope.
Well it isn't mine.
Which would mean...
What's wrong?
Did you get some strange disease from the cursed box?
T-This belongs to Haruka!
Are you sure?
You sure it wasn't a gift from someone?
It has to be.
On top of that, it was probably something she cherished since her childhood.
Its ear has fallen off.
Don't say it!
This can't be real!
That's right! It's a dream! I must be dreaming!
Someone wake me from this dream!
What the hell do you think you're doing!?
This isn't the time to be dreaming. What are you going to do about this?
Damn that hurt...
What should we do?
First of all, if you hadn't tried to open the box none of this...
Let me make this clear. You're at fault too.
Why am I? You were the one who said...
How troublesome.
This won't end with a simple uproar of anger.
That's because you were...
Haruka will be quite sad, we're sure to be yelled at.
Right?
All right. I'll help.
All right.
Let's begin.
Do you...
...really plan on doing this?
It's just an ear we're reattaching, right?
Silence please.
I can do it.
I will succeed.
Gulp~
Hey.
The other ear has been purged as well.
Don't you feel embarrassed having to fight with your older sister?
Shut up! Leaving it up to you was a mistake! Give it to me, I'll do it.
I won't let you!
Why are you being so stubborn!?
The tail fell off too.
W-What do you think you're doing?
It happened because you wouldn't let go!
Who the hell sneezes at such a crucial moment?
Ah! My hand is stuck now!
Hey! Stop pulling with so much force!
Well, it won't come off.
Then I'll cut off your hand.
The neck broke.
Hello? Fujioka?
I need you to find me something, it's an emergency!
Listen up, Keiko!
Don't get it wrong! A cute rabbit is what I need.
That's right, Yoshino! Eh? Uchida? Whatever it doesn't matter!
Find the thing that likes carrots!
Makoto! It's the carrots!
Run! Touma!
Sorry for having you accompany me on your day off.
No, it's fine. Since all I would have done is laze around at home.
Besides that, have you decided?
None of them seem that bad.
I know. I know.
Just thinking about it makes your head go in circles.
Yup. Yup.
It'd be nice if we could find something before the end of the day.
Oh?
Rabbit. Rabbit.
Rabbit.
Fujioka-kun.
Oh!
Good afternoon.
Looking for something?
Yeah, a rabbit.
A rabbit?
Pardon me, but I'm in a hurry.
Bye.
A rabbit?
Isn't this just a regular convenient store?
He didn't mistake this place for a pet shop, right?
Oh, that's right! I just remember about the rabbit.
Can you wait for me back at your house after we leave?
Hmm?
I have something nice for you.
Got it. Then, I'll give you a call later.
I see.
So Minami Haruka has interest in rabbits.
However, if I am to catch a rabbit, I'll require an ample amount of time.
I suppose I'll take some time off from school.
You've made quite the challenge for me, Minami Haruka.
Hey, you! Do you have a moment?
What's going on?
Don't look, Haruka.
They're late.
They still haven't called back.
Where the hell are they looking?
What time did Haruka-neesama say she would be back?
It's too soon, right?
Rather, it's too early.
Why are they so late!?
Are you okay?
I'm not okay!
Hello?
You haven't found it yet!?
I'm looking right now.
**rry and bring me a rab***!
What did you say just now? The signal here isn't very good.
Bri** me a rab***!
Eel?
It's eel, right?
Hur** up and bring it!
Right! Understood.
Eel... Where do I find that?
Kana?
Sorry, it was here a second ago, but...
...it seems like it went to a different location.
So close!
If that's the case, look for it! I need it no matter what!
I-I understand! I'll find it!
Yeah! I found it, Kana-chan!
I'm almost about to get it!
All right! Uchida you're the quickest one yet.
Keep up the good work!
I'll do my best!
Kana! I won! I really won, Kana!
Keep on working harder!
Huh?
Eh?
I am running!
Stop wasting time!
You can count on me!
Why am I running?
It looks like we'll be obtaining a new one soon.
Is this really going to work out?
Leave it up to me!
Huh?
I'm home.
What the? She's home already!
Welcome home.
That was pretty quick.
Welcome home.
I came home to pick up something for Maki.
Oh? What would that be?
A glass rabbit necklace.
Do you know where it is?
This is bad. What will we do?
We have no other choice but to wait for the others.
That's true.
Yeah.
Until then, the only thing we can do is...
...buy time.
Is something wrong?
U-Uhh. No, nothing at all.
Haruka-neesama.
Is the necklace you're looking for the one with a glass rabbit?
Yes, it was.
Did you see it anywhere?
I see. I wonder where it is.
I think I put it in the kitchen.
Well, let's just leave that conversation for later.
You've only just returned home, so have some tea.
I'll prepare the tea.
That's true. Thanks.
It's nothing. You're welcome.
Note: Seishin, the name of the candy is literally Clear Honesty.
So, what were you shopping for?
Well, Maki's relative's birthday is coming up soon, so I was helping her choose a present.
Oh. Is that so?
Yeah, really.
But Maki had trouble finding one so I thought...
...I'd give her something from home instead.
Chiaki, are you okay?
It's nothing at all.
Oh that Chiaki.
She's so clumsy.
They're here.
Huh? Who's here?
Kana-chan! I got it!
You did it!
Well worth the wait, Uchida.
Nice. Nice. Nice.
I used up two thousand yen to get it.
Well done.
One day I'll pay you back ten thousand yen.
It's really cute.
The thing that loves carrots.
Note: Horse sign says, Umasu, literally Horse-su.
Oh. That's so cute.
Welcome, Uchida-san.
Hello.
Fix the problem and then return, you bum.
Why?
Already done talking to her?
Well, it seems, Uchida is busy today.
I see.
It must be in the kitchen.
I'm pretty sure I left it there.
Chiaki?
Why are you kneeling there?
What's this? The sound of the bells have already rung.
Eh? For what?
Studying.
Studying for...?
Hey.
Kana.
Her tests are coming up soon, so she's trying to concentrate.
Like they say on TV, concentration is best in the kitchen.
Is that so?
Oh? That could be from Maki.
I'll pick it up!
Oh, okay.
Then, if you'll please.
Haruka-neesama.
What is it?
Is it possible that you might have left it in your room?
Eh?
But... I guess I'll take a look.
There's something I'd like to ask you.
If we're eating it, a fresh one would probably be best.
Huh?
It's pretty hard to get a fresh one.
But, I've obtained some good information.
There wasn't a fish farm close by so I went pretty far to find one.
I'll do my best and catch a big one.
Huh?
Minami?
Hello.
This is Minami.
I found what you were looking for.
Really!?
Yeah, but...
...it's a bit busy and can't get away at the moment.
How's this?
What should I do?
This is amazing Kana! I can't stop winning!
What the hell are you doing?
It's just, the wins keep on coming one after the other.
What should I do with this?
Hey, you know I've been running for a while now.
How long should I be running for?
Keep on running until you find it!
Find it?
Find what?
Sorry about earlier.
This time I'll get a much cuter one.
Okay, Kana-chan?
Eh? Kana-chan?
Hello? Hellooo?
I can't find it anywhere.
Was the phone call from Maki?
It was a call from Uchida. She called to say sorry for the intrusion.
She's so well-behaved.
Yeah. Surprising isn't it?
Nice to know she has a good side.
But, it's good that wasn't Maki.
It'd be hard to tell her, "I don't know where it is".
T-That's true.
If it's not in my room, then it must be in the kitchen.
Sorry for intruding.
Since it's come to this, I have no choice but fix this problem myself.
Where did I put it?
Haruka-neesama.
Yes?
How about taking a short break?
I would like to, but...
Chiaki.
I'm going.
Understood.
Are you going out?
Just for a bit.
Don't come home too late.
Yeah.
Please study hard on my behalf.
Understood.
Spiritual concentration. Spiritual concentration.
Hello.
Fuyuki.
Hey. Hey. Do you have a rabbit necklace or anything?
Eh?
One made of glass.
A rabbit necklace?
If you ask for something so suddenly...
That's for sure.
See ya!
Bye.
Chiaki.
Yes? Haruka-neesama.
I'm sorry to interrupt you in the middle of your training...
...but is it okay if I check the drawer behind you?
What? Haruka-neesama.
Oh? I'll go pick it up.
Just train a bit more Chiaki.
Hi. This is Minami.
Oh. Keiko-san.
Eh? Why are you apologizing?
Oh.
A rabbit?
Sorry, but...
...could you wait a moment?
Chiaki...
What does she mean by...
...rabbit?
Come on now.
About that...
It's not here either.
My knees hurt.
Snow?
Let's go home.
I'm home.
Chiaki, what happened?
I've heard the whole story.
That's...
Aren't you going to get that?
Opening it now.
Note: Umasu, is the name of the horse, but also means horse.
Kana-chan, look, look! Umasu!
Usa~
I w-w-w-w-won.
I brought them, Minami.
You asked everyone to help you search for it, didn't you?
I'm not really all that angry that you broke the rabbit.
You understand, right?
I'm so sorry!!
Have you ever left your ice cream in the freezer so long that a new type of ice cream came out?
The large amount of frost will make people wonder if it's still edible.
However, it's all right! Ice cream has no expiration date.
Of course the flavour would still be there.
Oh. After opening a pack of ice cream it would be best to eat it soon.
