60 Episode 55: The ever-increasing number



I'm irritated..."Good-night, Sue!""Go home!""Whoa!? What's that all of a sudden!" Who can blame me for shouting at the woman who came into the shop with a stupid face without even speaking of TPO? "Jillo, don't take it out on me.""... Jillo, my dear!""Don't be so irritated, brother.""Myself," Oh, I was severely criticized. `If you do it anyway, don't go like, 'Shall I cover your noisy lips?'' All right, you go home, Regina. "Welcome, Mr. Umaro. I'm sorry. I'm a little busy right now."`Oh, no, yes, no, it's all right!' Speaking to Jeanette, Womaro continues to jerky and funny movements.  It's an ordinary sight.  Yes, it's a scene I've been watching lately.  Such a woman, and their weary faces, and... The wax statues are increasing day by day. "Wow... It's increasing again." A woman says with a straight face.  That sounds bad... Ten days had already passed since I went to Forty Ward.  Meanwhile, wax statues were set up in that square every day.  You think that three wax statues, plus ten, made thirteen......... There are actually twenty‐four bodies.  There have been many days recently when I've been put down to two or three bodies a day.  As soon as I returned to the Yodamari-tei after collecting wax statues, I sometimes received reports from my sisters, "A new statue was installed!"  ...you worked too hard, sculptor! What's more... the pose is different every time! First of all, a wax statue of a jaw-clasping pose. It is titled "The Way of Thinking and Hope."  It's kind of like Ryunosuke Akutagawa. I don't think he's doing this. And a wax statue with her hair raked up and gloated at her eyes.  The title is, "Are you going to make me real?" ...what, like this painful fashion magazine?  Next was the wax statue, which wiped the blood from the cut lips with its thumb and smiled happily even though it was hurt. '...don't do it, that just worked.' ...when did I get hit? Furthermore, a s*xy wax statue with its collar pulled down and its lips licked with its tongue giving provocative glances.  -- never dressed like this! "I'll dye it my own color," he said on the pedestal. I didn't say it! I never said it! Immediately after that, a wax statue sitting on the ground with its knees up, with both hands behind its back, with its chest straight up as if it were looking up.  It's like the last pose of a consumer loan commercial dancing... The word written on the pedestal is "burn." Are you done dancing? And the wax statue, lying face down, fluttering knees, and resting on the cheekstick with a bored expression.  The theme is "Holiday on a Rainy Day". Isn't it nothing more to do with heroes? And the wax statue with a ferocious expression that crawls on all fours and peels its tusks.  On the pedestal, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo What else do you want to do? So today, the wax statue with a firm expression points to a distant future.  The theme is "Return to Origin." I guess you've made it a few times without worrying about the theme. You've got to come up with ideas to make it in this short time. You can't think of any kind of composition. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . !"But the more you look at it, the more exactly like it...""I'm sorry. Womaro and Regina are staring at the wax statue.  These guys... they're so nervous that they can't talk in front of women, and they're so bad at other people's eyes that they're upset with negativity. "Now, if you rub it... ...you're done!" Regina moves a wax image and combines the two to express satisfaction.  In front of him, there was a "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"I'm not playing!""The title is 'Fusion!'"`It only sounds obscene!' The way the wax statue with my face is about to attack the wax statue with my face... I feel... cold. "I saw a wax statue that looked just like me in the central square of the night about ten days ago and said, 'This is good! This is great! I can do it! With this, I can do it!""Were you watching, my dear?""You look just like yourself and you're "cool" ... you're a very advanced person, you know!""That's not what you mean, fool!" I thought he'd come to the Yodamari-tei so often lately that he'd be giving me an eerie smile.""Huh! I thought of it! I'll hurry home and write it down! Don't be so sorry!""Wait! What are you going to write?""This world needs love!"`Combine your love!' I'm hit by a very unpleasant cold, and I'll grab Regina by the neck for now and block her escape.  --I don't know what you write and what you write, but you can't make such an abominable thing happen in this world!"Yodamari-tei is as lively as ever," This one, too, has a smiling, happy smile on his face.  ... he looks as if he wants me to ask, "Did something good happen?"  That's why I dare ignore you!"Now, Magda, Loretta! Let's go round again!""Wait a minute! Please!"Wrapping around my waist, Umaro begs me desperately. "There's something I want you to listen to. I really want to announce it right now!" It's full of feeling that I can't care about my appearance anymore, and I can't help but throw away my superior position of "Oh, do you want to hear it?"  Why is he so particular about it... was it so important?"At last, all the houses in New Town have been completed!""That's great. Congratulations!""Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Good job! It's a nice time to interrupt! I don't have time to listen to the story of Umaro. "And the next strategy is...""Wait a minute! Oira, there's an important announcement!" ... oh my gosh!  Don't be so impatient today.  What the hell is that?"Then tell me quickly. I'm busy here.""Cohon... impertinence... ...actually, Oira...!""Oh, come to think of it, ummallow. You've moved here, haven't you?""I was going to talk about it now!" Estella gives a spoiler that doesn't read the atmosphere beautifully.  I see. Since he's a lord, will he be informed of the relocation of the residents? "What?! Why are you moving in?""Now that we have a branch!""You must be the head of the Tolbeck factory!"`It's been decided that the top is not in the branch, and nowhere!'"What about the headquarters?""Yambold will do something about it!" a woman who smiles satisfactorily with a fox face  This... you stupid fox. I missed Magda so much that he even moved..."Magda, when you talk to Umaro in the future, make sure you add 'somewhat from Kimoi' to the end of the word.""What harassment!? Magda-tan doesn't say such a thing!""...yes. Magda doesn't say that. It's kind of cool.""Huh!? Magda-tan, a real angel!""...any Magda, what about you?" Estella is the last straw. "No, no, no, no, no!? Oh, oh, that old Oira is....""Oh, come on! Don't look at anything but Magda and me!" I'm too nervous to understand what I mean. `Huh...'Don't look at anyone but me'......'"What are you taking note of, Regina? Go home now!"`No, let me observe a little more!' Come on. With sparkling eyes.  That's enough. He's ignoring me. "And did you move in to stalk Magda?""No! Of course, I want to breathe the same air in the same city as Magda-tan, but there are other reasons!""Nine-ninety-nine-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety-ninety- Estella is pulling away further. "The 42nd leg starts with Mr. Jiro.""'I can't live without Mr. Jiro'...""Regina, do you have a bad ear?" It's only a few meters away with no obstacles, no shields, but somehow the words in Regina's ear seem strangely transformed. "It's fun to work with Jiro. I feel like I'm sweating better than usual.""'It's fun to be with Yashiro. I feel like I'm sweating better than usual,'""Some very important words are missing, Regina,""Working with Jiro is the most fun thing to do you think?"'I'm having the most fun with Mr. Jiro'...""What, are you a genius in that field? It's just a natural disaster to me.""So, you know, we decided that it would be best for the Tolbeck factory to be any bigger than it is now, to have Oira in the 42nd leg. This is not flattery, but carpentry intuition!""'Ah! No, no, Mr. Jiro, here...! Everyone is watching!'""You didn't scratch a word!? Is it your ears, your brains, or your mind that is rotten?""Are you listening, Mr. Jiro?""Oh, sorry. I was crazy about Regina.""…………………."I was crazy about Regina." Why did you write it down?"Anyway, it's for the benefit of the Torbeck Works that Oira lives in the 42nd leg, and these days she's mainly working in the 42nd leg. I'm grateful to be able to live near the site. It's exhausting to go back and forth between the 42nd and the 40th leg every day." a woman with a refreshing smile  I'm sure they're feeling refreshed after they've decided to a new house.  It's a thrilling trap to live near your favorite girl.  On top of that, the work is going well and there is nothing to worry about today's womaro.It's rosy.  The fun is in full swing.  Then shall we face the gray reality here? "Woomaro, when did you move?""I've finished it this morning."Well, and I'll start sewage work in the 40th leg tomorrow, so please take care of me.""Forty wards!""I'll be back and forth every day from tomorrow."...what a perfect timing...!" exquisite indeed  There must be a god who can't stand it without putting his little boobs in it.  This funny life! I don't envy you at all, but it's a lot of fun watching from the side. "I'm sorry, Umaro. Actually, I should have had a little more time..." Estella says apologetically, perhaps worried about the crumpled womalo. "Ten days ago I talked to the lord, and today I heard from him that he was ready. I wanted to discuss the schedule with you...""Womaro decided on his own whether he liked this kind of surprise!""...that's the case,""No... no... I've been prepared to do this since I decided to go out with Mr. Yashiro...""'I'm going out with Mr. Yashiro... I'm ready to go out of the blue."Didn't you leave yet, Regina?" Don't you think it's rotten to a great extent in the dining room.  It's your fault if there's a problem with hygiene. "... Womaro."Ma, Magda-tan..." Magda approaches the drooping womalo very closely.  and lay his hand upon the woman's shoulder, and muttered in a flat voice, staring straight in the face. "...from today on, I changed from 'I'm leaving' to 'I'm coming back.'""Ma, Magda-tan .........!""...Womaro will work hard... and come back here.""Oh, yes... yes!""...it's kind of like that,""…………It was still going on, or the end of the word." Lift it up and drop it... ...up your arm, Magda. "Now, when the atmosphere warms up, let's get to the point.""...Oira, it feels like a stepping-stone." Ignoring the fiddling womaro, I finally express my determination to embark on it in earnest.  What? It's decided!"I'm serious about catching the sculptor who carved this wax statue!""Didn't you mean it so far?" Estella will bring in an airy tsukkomi.  Well, I've always been fairly serious, but..."There's one thing I've learned in the last ten days."Oh, I'd like to hear it.""We analyzed the situation where the wax statue of the mysterious sculptor was installed and figured out the pattern of his behavior.""Oh! You look like a smart person!""Yasilo is smart.""The obscenity depends on what you put in front of the 'head'."「「……?」」 Hey Regina, you're not fooling the pure pair below Ossan.  Either shut your mouth or go home now. No, go home now after all. "What is that pattern of behavior?" Estella approaches me with interest.  Hmmm, good job.  Then I'll tell you about the target behavior pattern that my clear brain has played out!"There have been 24 wax statues in the central square!""Yes, we have everything here.""... full of palmro-san, Oira... I'm getting a little sick." a row of statues of me in the dining room  ... it's disgusting, isn't it? What horror house is it? "Twelve of them were discovered in the morning," The first wax statue was left unattended for a while, but half of it was discovered early in the morning before going to donate.  As can be seen from then on, these twelve bodies are undoubtedly installed at night. "In other words, this target is half as likely to be nocturnal!""...if it weren't nocturnal?""He's active during the day!"`They'll all fall into one of them!' Estella is going to put a finger on my perfect profiling.  I don't like people who just criticize me without even thinking about it. "And twelve out of twenty-four are... half set up during the day?""Yes! That's why I've had a day-long stakeout!" On the afternoon of the day I went to Forty Ward for negotiations, a wax statue of me was set up in the central square.  So, knowing that it could be set up during the day, I began to post in the central square during the day.  I tried to arrest him red‐handed.  But the result is......... The wax statue was set up in the central square, taking the opportunity of being called by my sisters and going back to the sun-drenched pavilion because of no movement at all when I was watching.  I couldn't catch my tail at all... but I'd rather doubt that I was being watched.  In any case, the enemy has found out all about their daytime overhangs. "So now I'm going to have a stakeout at night!""...what a...a very basic proposition." What a nuisance!  despite the fact that people are motivated "But Mr. Jiro... are you all right?""Well, day and night may turn a little bit... and yet I must catch this sculptor... ...whatever happens!" This sculptor may have the future of Yangdalitei!"...the palm-ro is on fire... ...it's not that cool.""Hey, Magda! Don't use it for me!""Yasilo is the place where you hang on the trap you set yourself..."No, Estella. Magda knows what she's doing it.  The half‐eyed, expressionless little girl is surprisingly calculated and strong throughout the year.  I guess it's about time you started worrying about it. You'll be quiet as soon as you mumble your ears. "Brother, are you really going to stake out at night?""Ah! I'm not going to take your brothers and sisters with me, so don't worry. I'm not going to take them out in the middle of the night.""But then, brother, are you going to stick it up by yourself?""Well, that's going to be the case. If you're going to overhang it at night, you can get rid of it. If you can, I'd prefer a single one. If you go in large numbers, you're more likely to get affected." After all, the enemy is a sensitive guy who finds me hiding and puts up a wax statue to avoid it.  You'll need to pay close attention. "Ah, Mr. Jiro......." Jeanette looks at me anxiously. She looks as if she's about to burst into tears. "It's all right, Jeanette. I'm not going to do anything dangerous." It's too early to say that there's no danger unless you know what kind of guy your target is... just to reassure Jeanette. Let's say it's a expedient. "...yes," Jeanette nodded slightly, seemingly convinced, though she still looked uneasy. "Well, at least... this," Then he thrusts the wax statue forward to me. "It's dark at night."`Can you use this!' Can you stop showing off your idiot to the fullest extent possible at this critical moment? It would be no use putting on a bright light like this.  I don't want to see my body slowly melting down!"Anyway, we're going to start the stakeout tonight. We may not be able to make early contributions from tomorrow.""That's inevitable, I think. But please be very careful." Jeanette says uneasily, caressing the head of the wax statue that pushed it out in front of me.  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Are you okay? Do you know which one is real?"Genet.........just in case, is this the real thing?""What? I know. Hmm... You can't be wrong, can you?" Jeanette smiles at the wax statue patting her head.  I'm talking to you!"But it's so much like you're going to start talking.""I'll melt it as soon as I speak.""'Don't do that! Don't melt me!'" Hiding behind a wax statue, Jeanette changes her voice slightly and says such a line. "'Hey, I'm Mr. Jillo,' ...or ventriloquy, I suppose.""Why are you adding a 'san' to yourself?""Why... because I'm embarrassed to call him away." a half‐baked ginet  That half-bakedness, well, it's kind of... kind of cute, maybe? Smile when you peep over the shoulder of a wax statue.  Jeanette laughs a lot these days.  Are you interested in wax dolls?"It seems like there are a lot of Yashiro-san, and it's very encouraging.""No, I'm not at all...""Oira, on the contrary, is struck with unprofitable anxiety...""You've always had the same face,"Even our younger brothers have a little more difference in face...""... 'Hey, bokjillo. It's kind of cool!'""All right, you guys, except Jeanette! And Magda, you're taking in too many things." Magda's ventriloquy somehow resembled a mouse in the land of dreams.  Well, that mouse won't say, 'It's kind of from you.'  Oh, my God. They don't even know what to do with it'  You'll understand how I feel if you're exposed to a wax statue that looks just like you.  I can't help laughing because it's someone else's business.  It's really abominable... Well... I don't mind because Jeanette's face has faded from anxiety. "Well, I'll keep the night-time sun-dormouse while you're gone!" Suddenly Loretta began to say such a thing.  beat someone on the chest, shake him slightly, and proclaim proudly "No, Loretta is a little unreliable. I'll stay at the Yodamari-tei to guard you!" Even Estella, inspired by Loretta, says such a thing.  with a smack on the chest, without a trace of movement, with a triumphant air..."Where were you just watching?""What are you talking about?" ... He's piercing at me. He's really sharp. "If that's the case, Oira will do it for you.""Well... men are a little... in trouble.""...isn't it?"...I'm sorry." Jeanette gently rejects Umaro, who was about to make a bid.  Wow... Jeanette's guy, you've learned to reject the kindness of others? He's grown up a little since I came here. "Well, let's get at least a few people... Regina,""I'm sorry. We can't sleep without our own house.""...that air of being unreadable, it's Regina, isn't it?" Words such as cooperation, compassion and volunteerism are missing.  Well, I can't talk about people, either. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "Well, then I'll take a nap for the night." Tell him so, and I'll go back to my room.  It's only past noon, but if I close the wooden windows tightly, the room will be dark, and I'm tired of running around these days, so I think I can sleep pretty quickly. ... If I sleep like that until morning, I can't even look at it.  It's night. . . . . I didn't oversleep. "Yasilo, this one". When I left my room and entered the kitchen, Jeanette handed me a lunch box. "It's a long night. Eat it when you're hungry." It's a very heavy three‐tiered pile.  ...I'm not going to eat this much. "Excuse me. There are a lot of Jiro-san in the dining room... I just made too much of it." Isn't it possible that he doesn't know the difference between the real and wax statues?"Yasilo, I've brought a lantern from home. With this, get rid of the criminal.""What about you?""Buck... Hey, Jiro. People are trying to help you at the moment..." If a light was lit in such a pitch‐dark square, it would be like saying, "I'm here. I'm here." "The light is rejected. I'll completely assimilate into darkness and catch the enemy alive.""Well, then I'll drop this." Estella puts away the lantern, apparently convinced.  Is it really okay for you to stay here? The only daughter of the lord was in the house with a man in the middle of the night. "Now that Natalia's permission has been granted. Your credit rating is pretty good, isn't it?""I don't think Natalia trusts me..." In his case, I don't think he's worried, but he's like, "He's... he'll be sure to catch me when something happens." `I'll keep you safe while you're away!' Loretta is full of drive.  He wears a headband and a little leather armor over his usual apron dress.  Maybe it was lent to me by Estella... ...very reliable.  Well, it's about Loretta. He must be the first type to fall asleep with enthusiasm, "I'll do my best!"  I feel a little uneasy about opening the sun-dormante at night..."It's all right. You're all here." When they meet, they smile softly.  But there was still a slight sense of uneasiness about the smile.  ...no, is this worrying? Anyway, I can't make you look like this again and again.  I'll settle it today.  Wait, sculptor.  I'll catch you today!"Well, I'll be back. Everyone will come to see me off in front of the door.  After looking at each and every one of my faces, I went step by step into the deep darkness of the night that seemed to be engulfed by darkness.  A little more than ten minutes passed, and I........."I can't! I'm so scared! It's not going to be a night-time joke!" He was running back to the Yodamari-tei.  That's because! It's dark! That won't make me feel like a joke! That's impossible! What's more, I'm alone! Mm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm"It's faster than I expected...""... Jillo is afraid of darkness.""My brother seems to be very steady, but in fact...""Yes, there's a cute side, isn't there?""'No, it's not... '""He...?" What are you guys doing over there when I'm shaking so much? Go talk to me! You can stroke your head or something! Do something about the scary things in me! Hey... the fear of darkness sticks to my body and won't let me go... I want to go to bed and sleep, but I don't want to sleep at all because I was sleeping until just now... Jeanettes, you look super sleepy! I'm the only one who's not sleepy at all! If things go on like this, I can't sleep all night.........Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."... Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou, Mr. Hou! I'll ......see you later.
