  [Two strangers, both wearing a distinctive Maromi bag, come across and recognize each other] 

• Fuyubachi : This is it, my last pill...

• [waiting for Kamome] 

  Fuyubachi : This is strange. She didn't strike me on the Net as the kind of girl who keeps people waiting. Well, it's perfectly understandable if she changed her mind, I suppose...

  [Zebra points at a little girl who's carrying a bag just like theirs] 

  Fuyubachi : [a small laugh]  Couldn't be! I mean, would you look at her, she's still just a child! I thought she'd be more like, how should I say, you know, er... how old did she say she was again?

  Fuyubachi : That's just a rumour. All sorts of stories get blown all out of proportion, you know? I mean, first of all, if it's true he comes for people who are emotionally cornered, then he should have come for us a long time ago...

• Fuyubachi : Okay... maybe we should get going.

  Kamome : What? Where?

  Fuyubachi : [smiles]  Far away!

  Kamome : [smiles too]  Are we riding the train again?

  Kamome : Excuse me, are you the real...?

  [Fuyubachi claps her mouth shut] 

• Fuyubachi : Now, now, there's no need to worry. I was worried, so I went ahead and came up with a contingency plan...

  [Kamome and Zebra cheer] 

• Fuyubachi : They said on the news that our friend Fox was killed by Lil' Slugger.

  Zebra : Isn't Lil' Slugger that serial street attacker they arrested? The one who killed himself in jail?

  Fuyubachi : No, no. Apparently, the person they arrested was an imposter, who turned out to really be Fox.

  Kamome : You mean, he was killed inside the police station? By Lil' Slugger?

  Fuyubachi : [teasing]  I don't know. They say the only way the chair could have got inside is through the wall!
