Aizawa, it isn't true, is it? It's true Mizuki isdead Shoot! Please be on time! She committed suicide at the end of last year.
Suicide? Why?! What are you talking about now? Of course it's because of you.
Mizuki was pregnant! If you hadn't betrayed her this wouldn't have happened! I had no other choice.
No other choice! At that time the Board of Education told me I couldn't be involved anymore Really? I don't care The bottom line is Mizuki won't be back anymore You guys are murderers! Am I on time?! Welcome! Oh, Teacher! Hello! Tomoko! Your teacher is here! Coming! I'll have the miso and gyoza set, the 350 yen special -it's still on, right? - That's the real Tomo-chan! All right! I'm glad I got here on time! Are you out of money again? Payday is tomorrow.
Don't be silly.
We can always give you a special price.
No, no.
That would be an abuse of my authority.
You're more honest than you look.
Let me treat you to a beer.
Think of this as a visit to a student's home.
Is that right? If you say so Thank you very much.
Next on the news.
Late last night, Noboru Saito, a 24-year-old teacher at the private Reimei Women's School in Tokyo, was stabbed in the chest at his home and then taken to the hospital.
He is currently in critical condition.
A neighborhood resident witnessed a young woman running away.
The police believe that this woman is involved in the case and are looking for her.
Huh, involved with a woman.
.
! Next, in sports What's the matter, Toroko? He was our homeroom teacher last year.
Noboru-sensei Saito.
Yes, Onizuka here.
Oh, Principal? Yes, the news? I'm watching it now Is that right? Yes.
When I saw the news a little while ago I thought I should let you know Saito-sensei was the homeroom teacher for the previous Class 2-4.
But last summer his relationship with one of his female students was exposed by the media and he left the school.
The female student left, too Her name was Mizuki Yokoyama and she was an excellent student who always had a smile on her face.
She transferred.
What did he find sexy about a high school kid?! He must have had a Lolita Complex.
No, he was enthusiastic, and he was respected by the students.
The reason why that class started to terrorize their homeroom teachers was probably because of what Saito-sensei said when he left the school.
He said he would take responsibility and then submitted his resignation.
But publicly he denied the relationship with Mizuki Yokoyama.
If Yokoyama-san had said anything it would've complicated things but since she didn't the matter ended with Saito-sensei's resignation.
I've never thought that he would continue teaching at a different school.
Onizuka-sensei.
It is really difficult to have a good relationship between students and their teacher.
The more the teacher is trusted by his students the more the students can be hurt with just one word from the teacher.
Hey! That's Saito, isn't it? Yeah.
How could we forget Noboru Saito?! - What are you talking about? - Didn't you see the news? - I bet he betrayed - He was stabbed.
someone again and he was attacked.
It serves him right.
That's right.
After all, he was that kind of man.
Because of him, at that time If that's how it ends, it's fine by me Miyabi's absent, isn't she? Are you saying Aizawa did it?! No way! Even Aizawa She couldn't? Can we be certain she didn't do it? Yokoyama and Aizawa were good friends ever since they were in elementary school What should we do, Kikuchi? Yeah Hey, did Miyabi really do it?! I'm not sure First, we need to investigate.
Don't say anything to Onizuka till then.
Why not? If it's true, we have to tell him right away! Calm down, everyone.
It isn't a good idea to turn it into a big problem.
Right? Until we find out the truth, let's act prudently.
So what's Saito's condition? According to his doctor, it is very serious The next few days will be key.
How about the police and the media? I took care of them I don't think the matter will attract any more attention.
Director.
What should we do as a response? The issue is who was the young woman who fled from his condo? If the woman was involved in last year's case Well, Mizuki Yokoyama CLASSIFIED: SPECIAL INVESTIGATION REPORT the former student at Holy Forest Academy in Class 2-4 committed suicide.
Really, what a pain! She should have been ashamed that her indecent relationship with her teacher was revealed.
We hid the fact from the public for them, and she responded by committing suicide! Well, we pressured the newspaper so we don't have to worry about that now.
But if we're not cautious, we'll come off as the bad guys.
Anyway, we can't do any more harm to the authority of Japanese education.
Make sure to crush any hint of scandal.
Oh, Yokoyama and Aizawa! You're still here.
We're making charts from everyone's opinions in the class.
It took more time than we thought.
All right, then.
I'll help you, too.
All right! Teacher, sit on this side! Oh, you were counting on this, weren't you?! You caught us! Listen, Miyabi I to tell you the truth Really? Kikuchi said not to tell anyone I have a bad feeling No way Do you guys seriously think that Aizawa was involved in yesterday's incident? I don't know.
But we can never forgive Saito-sensei.
Everyone thinks it might Aizawa isn't home I'll try to find Onizuka-sensei.
Fuyutsuki.
You and the other students should look for Aizawa.
Yes! Welcome! BOARD OF EDUCATION OUTLINE AND DEVELOPMENT Thank you very much.
The number you are calling is out of range, or the power is off and it cannot be connected.
NAO KADENA Yes.
He isn't there? How about his cell phone? The power is off I see.
Yes, please do so.
He isn't home? No Let's go to Kikuchi's house then.
- One beer, ma'am! - All right! Are you okay? Why don't you slow down a little? Never mind.
I want to drink now! What's the matter? Did Fuyutsuki dump you? It's not that They were betrayed by the teacher they had trusted.
They? The students in your class? Yeah.
One of the students was seriously going out with him.
But when the media found out he denied it to stay out of trouble.
I guess there are a lot of screwed-up people in the world.
But I heard he was a nice guy Here! Thank you for waiting! Kikuchi? It's me.
Did you find anything? I checked the records back from when Saito was first hired by Reimei Women's School.
What do you mean? You were not there at that time.
So you may not know Usually a teacher who made the news like that cannot be hired by another private school so easily.
As I thought he had a powerful person recommend him.
Who?! Koichi Igarashi.
He's the Director of the Board of Education.
At that time, Saito said he was serious about Mizuki Yokoyama.
He said he knew it wasn't allowed but that he would fight whatever people said.
And we believed his words.
But why did he end up betraying us? It was pressure.
The reason why the relationship between Yokoyama and Saito was revealed in the media was that she was an excellent student who was going to represent students at the World Conference to Protect Children's Rights held in Japan last year.
A well-behaved and excellent student had a relationship with her homeroom teacher.
What could be a better scandal than this for the media? But the ones who were most afraid that the two might acknowledge it were the Board of Education who strongly recommended her for the Conference.
It would ruin their credibility.
So they talked to Saito and made a deal.
I see Well, do you know where I'm making this call from? I'm at a graveyard.
Mizuki Yokoyama died at the end of last year.
Suicide.
And one more thing I spoke with her mother.
She can think of only one reason for the suicide.
Kikuchi! Please explain the situation.
Yoshikawa! Sorry! I was worried What on earth is going on?! Wait! Kanzaki! So what's the reason? Her mother said she might have been pregnant And the same story was told to Miyabi right before the incident No matter how much I worry about it, there's nothing I can do.
Ma'am! Bring more beer, please! TEACHER FOR LIFE Hello.
Murai? Where are you now? We're at the hamburger place in front of the station.
About 30 minutes ago, a student from Class 3 saw Miyabi.
She was headed to the station.
That's not good Murai, do you know where the Metropolitan Government Office is? Building No.
2 Yeah.
The Board of Education's office is in there.
Go there right away! We have to stop Aizawa! Kikuchi.
You were right, we should have let Onizuka know Teacher.
Can you contact Onizuka? Well, it seems his cell phone is off Hold on! Hey, are you okay? Hello.
Oh, Fuyutsuki Yes, Eikichi is here but What?! Ryuji! Water! More! All right Hey, Eikichi You're a good teacher.
Going! Go for it! I suppose Aizawa somehow found out that Saito, whom we thought had stopped teaching was still teaching.
Also she found out that Saito and the Board of Education were working hand in hand behind our backs.
She then finds out about Yokoyama's suicide snaps and attacks Saito.
She then tries to take revenge on the Board of Education who've been trying to cover up the case.
No way Who's to say they didn't? Yokoyama's suicide was not even in the newspaper.
That's why until now even we've been quiet about it, but I'm sure their power has been used For Aizawa they didn't just force her best friend into committing suicide they're also trying to erase the existence of her friend.
Do you remember Mizuki Yokoyama? Who are you? Shoot! Please be on time! I was Mizuki's best friend.
Mizuki was always smiling.
I loved to see her smiling.
But Mizuki stopped smiling after Saito betrayed her.
What are you talking about? Everyone loved Saito Everyone Of course, so did Mizuki.
And she really fell in love with Saito-sensei.
Are you the one who stabbed Saito-sensei?! Am I right?! Where are you?! Aizawa! Aizawa! Where are you?! Stop, stop it! If you did it, you'll be finished, too! Maybe But it's better than Mizuki.
Wait! I didn't do anything! You're a punk! Onizuka! Surrender quietly! Leave me alone! I will take this guy Fool! A kid shouldn't use a knife.
Leave me alone! Hey! Wait! - Who are you?! - Leave me alone! I'm - Holy Forest, Class 3-4 -telling you to leave me alone! -a homeroom teacher - I don't acknowledge you -Eikichi Onizuka -as my homeroom teacher! 22 years old.
Greetings! Aizawa! Hey! This way! Leave me alone! I hate you! I hate adults! - I don't trust adults! - Teacher! Let's go home.
Wait! That student is a suspect in yesterday's incident.
Where are you taking her?! I'm calling the police now.
Stay there! No need for that.
I'll take her into my custody and take full responsibility.
What?! What can you do?! I can do whatever I want for my own student.
You! And you call yourself a teacher?! Do you know who I am?! No! You'll pay for this! Good! Come and get me anytime! Get on, Aizawa! Get on! Onizuka-sensei! Hey, hey if you kids roam around at this time of night you're gonna get arrested.
Onizuka.
Fuyutsuki-chan.
Please take care of them.
Onizuka-sensei, where are you going? Hey, Eikichi! What were you thinking?! Get out! - I see.
- And take that girl with you - I'm fine.
Thanks, Kikuchi.
-are you going to do something? Are you listening to me?! - You must be feeling good.
- What?! You're kidding! You took the real suspect to the police.
- What's going on? - Did you really - Explain it to me! -stab Saito? Did you?! Last week when I heard Saito was still teaching I went to see how he was doing.
He was surrounded by his students and he seemed happy Imagine whatever you want.
You're thinking I did it, too, aren't you?! That's fine! That's How long are you gonna be stubborn about this? Keep her in there for a while.
Yeah What?! Hey! Wait a minute! Hey! Hey! I'm so sorry.
Anyway, that man is vulgar, rude and vicious.
It is outrageous for him to assault a member of the Board of Education.
He should be condemned.
He didn't assault him at all! If I wasn't assaulted, how do you explain this? Sakurai-san.
We have two requests.
One.
Turn Miyabi Aizawa in to the police.
Two.
Fire Onizuka immediately for assaulting one of our board members.
That's all.
- Please wait! No way - Sure! That's not hard! We'll do it right away! What do you think? Onizuka, Miyabi Aizawa We haven't been able to reach either of them.
As soon as we can contact them, we'll listen to their explanations then we'll decide what we should do.
Are you accusing me of lying? There is no time for all of that! Miyabi Aizawa admitted that she attacked Saito.
You will inevitably have to turn her in to the police! And if we don't accept your request what are you going to do? I regret to say that Holy Forest's license will be suspended.
You're saying that you'll shut down the school? No way! If that happens, my loan will be I was trying to say it politely but I suppose you didn't understand me.
This is an order.
Make sure it's done by tomorrow.
Where is our future going? Maybe it knows of this aimless journey and simply flew away If you can stop our gloomy days I will listen to all you say However much we have, There is always something lacking The wind will always blow And carry the scent away I am searching for our future now Don't laugh because It may really go away Remember these Strained words I say The night is almost over, So let's run through this moment All we have is this precious moment All we have is this precious moment Before the endless night begins Embrace this precious night NEXT EPISODE Effective immediately, I suspend the operational license of Holy Forest Academy.
Take me to Onizuka.
Quickly! Please don't go No! No! I won't let it happen! Principal! I won't let my little bit of happiness be ruined! I am the one who stabbed him Eikichi Onizuka, 22 years old! SEE YA NEXT TIME
