But there are many would-be deities there, each posing as a god.

OK, shall we deal?

Yasuda! Will Gates' Righthand Man?!

In the field of Security, of course.

Sashimi, Sashimi...

Ueda Jiro,

Nippon Kagaku Gijyutsu

University Professor

aka Kagi Dai Kyoju

It's been a long time

since high school.

But you haven't changed a bit.

Elite of studying for entrance exam

is still elite of the society.

How's your work at

the Ministry of Finance?

Aren't you busy with

budget allocation?

Let me have this.

It's quite tough to babysit

stupid politicians.

Depression, Bad Economic Weather...

They all blame us,

Elite Bureaucrats.

Ueda, you are an

assistant professor at

Nippon Kagaku Gijyutsu University?

Yeah, you were good at

Science and mathematics.

I'm now a professor.

Give me that, too.

Don't worry about it.

I'm not a man who cares about

the tiny rank nor positions.

And...

I published books recently.

Donto Koi Chojyo Gensho

(Come Forward Unusual Phenomenon)

Part1

As seen on Wide Scramble TV

Part2

Kokumonto Island

Part 1 and Part 2 combined,

they sold more than 2000

copies nationwide.

The publisher wants me to

write Part 3.

Give me pumpkins.

Thank you for waiting.

Who are you?

Geisha?

She is a magician, I know of.

I called her for

our entertainment.

If you are good enough, you can

perform your act in our

Monthly Birthday Party

at the Ministry of Finance.

Thank you for your offer.

You must realize

You perform in front of us. that means...

You have great skills.

Show us.

Please pay attention.

Very fast!!

Let me borrow this.

Good, Good, Good!!!

Ueda! What's the meaning of this?

The Magic Shows I'd seen

in Las Vegas were

illusion, levitation...

the people vanished in thin air,

a lion became a leopard...

Well, those magic require

many assistants at the back stage,

and use high-tech wires and...

Hey you, what's the relation with her?

In fact, I am not so familiar with her.

An acquaintance of an acquaintance of mine

introduced her to me, but she was introduced by his acquaintance's friend of his acquaintance.

Never mind.

Forget about her.

Hey, you!

Who do you think you are?

You know how I had done this. Right?!

You!

You?!

Explain!

Give me your sake!

Here!

Not worth taking time for

explanation as it is a cheap trick.

Ueda...

They all look like you.

I'm sorry, everyone.

Anyhow, drink up!

And enjoy yourselves.

Hey, you, you... YOU!

Better mind your manners...

You don't know who they are.

I have no idea.

If you wanted to make fun of me,

You should've told me first.

Will you stop?

I extended my kindness

to introduce my friends.

I am also embarrassed by you.

Goodbye!

What have you done? Idiot!

Now it's time for Kanpai to affirm

our everlasting elite friendships.

Why are you laughing?

Nothing in particular...

Hey, Usui...

Since graduation, I haven't

heard good news on you.

You remained at the University Lab

but only after one year, you quit.

You were the top grade student.

What happened to you?

I hope you are not still searching

for Tokugawa's Buried Treasure.

I found it.

The buried treasure.

Can I expect your hands

to dig up the treasure?

Huh?

Hey, stop joking.

If you can't believe it,

There's no need to believe it.

I'll find other partners.

Where are you going?

To the bathroom.

Kawaya=Benjo=Toire=W.C

What a crap!

He might be telling the truth.

Huh?

Anyhow, he was clever.

He never studies, but

He was the top in tests every time.

Hey, do you remember?

As a freshman at high school,

He solved Fermat's Last Theorem.

Just because he says there is,

there might be...

Hey, what do you think,

Professor Ueda?

I don't think so.

He says he didn't study...

But he was actually studying hard.

He wore the belt that

can enhance brain power.

Otherwise, there is no way

that I lost to him.

I am not asking such a thing to you.

Then, what are you asking?

Stop it.

You always argue like this.

I'll take a leak, too.

Damn Usui...

Nitsuke

A cooking method where the ingredient

is simmered and to make the flavor

settle completely.

Return my Nitsuke Dish.

You are so cheap as always.

Don't push, don't push...

What's up?

What's the matter?

Is he dead?

Call police immediately.

You are the police, aren't you?

I'm not police.

I'm an Elite Carrier Police Officer.

Hold right there.

What is it?

TO I RE TSU MA RU

Toilet Bowl got stuck

Must be a dying message.

Dying message?

Ueda, you are good at this, aren't you?

Give us your Predictive

Deduction from this.

Look. Toilet papers are

stuck in a toilet bowl.

Usui asked us to flush this

out of his embarrassment.

No way to find such a stupid person.

Wait a moment.

He might be pointing

the buried treasure with this message.

What?

TOIRE TSUMARU:

What it means is

A Treasure is stuck in a

toilet bowl somewhere.

A buried treasure...

in a toilet bowl...

All we must do is to

check toilet bowls nationwide.

Asian Old Style Toilet

The porcelain hole in the floor that you squat over like you are in the woods doing your business.

Not necessarily so.

We can eliminate

modern flushing toilets.

I see.

But nationwide means tough.

You can depend upon the

Ministry of National Transportation

I can instruct General Contractors

and have them check toilets under

" Nationwide Movement for Flushing Toilets"

Police Department can offer help, too.

I can form investigation teams

nationwide, with surplus personnels.

What about money?

Ministry of Finance can finance all.

I will create an Economy Stimulus Budget.

I can convince Prime Minister with no time.

Once the treasure is found,...

Do you remember?

Our dream from the dormitory days...

Buy out The Uninhabited Island and

make it into a paradise for this elite group.

And we name it " Aka Mon Tou Island"

Akamon

is a symbol of

Tokyo University

that produces many

Elite Bureaucrats.

Ahh... tropical juice...

Sunset Cruise...

Shocking tiny G-string bikinis...

Going Across the Mountains

and Valleys... Yahoo! Yahoo!

The government has decided to convert all old style toilets to flushing toilets nationwide as part of Economy Stimulus Package.

The government is proposing 3,000,000,000,000 yen

budget for this project, " Nationwide Movement for Flushing Toilets"

I had arranged the song.

Watch the road.

From here, we go into

Itofushi Mura Village.

Will you lower your head so that

no villagers will see you?

It's dangerous. Watch the road.

I know, I know.

Welcome To

ITO FUSHI MURA:

(Village)

Next news:

Entire body is covered with white furs.

Ueno Hara Zoo is expecting Mon-Mon to be as popular as the first Panda Boom.

Some Zoologists are speculating that Mon-Mon might be just a polar bear.

What's happening?

This is outrageous!

No such a thing here last night.

You are right.

No such a thing...

Kikuhime

Village Miko,

Fortune Teller

You, idiot!

It's a sign that the God of Turtle

is coming closer to us.

God?!

What do you think?

Yes, it is true.

There's a sign right here.
