1. FRIEND
Copy !req
2. I understand.
Copy !req
3. I can't be your boyfriend,
but I can play the part.
Copy !req
4. Thank you.
Copy !req
5. I'll work hard to make you love me.
Copy !req
6. I'll make sure she meets L
to find out his name
Copy !req
7. and eliminate the entire Task Force HQ.
Copy !req
8. Then I'll kill her.
Copy !req
9. That's right.
Copy !req
10. She's the only person who knows
Kira's identity.
Copy !req
11. I can't let her live for long.
Copy !req
12. So you'll just pretend to be
my boyfriend, huh?
Copy !req
13. That's a good start.
Copy !req
14. So then, could you show me
your Shinigami?
Copy !req
15. I suppose I need to make her trust me.
Copy !req
16. Yeah. All right.
Copy !req
17. Could you turn around?
Copy !req
18. Okay.
Copy !req
19. You can turn around now.
Copy !req
20. Okay.
Copy !req
21. Hi!
Copy !req
22. Ooh!
Copy !req
23. He's a completely different type
of Shinigami to Rem, isn't he?
Copy !req
24. I already know your name. It's Ryuk.
Copy !req
25. Pleased to meet you!
Copy !req
26. Yeah, pleased to meet you.
Copy !req
27. Oh yeah, Light, do you know
how to kill a Shinigami?
Copy !req
28. You're already calling me
by my first name?
Copy !req
29. Should I call you "Knight" instead?
Copy !req
30. Because you're like Misa's knight
in shining armor!
Copy !req
31. Light is fine.
Copy !req
32. Are you planning to check all
the videos of Aoyama on the 22nd
Copy !req
33. by yourself?
Copy !req
34. Yes. It's very likely that Kira
and the Second Kira
Copy !req
35. made contact with each other there
on that day.
Copy !req
36. I want to check them all.
Copy !req
37. - Mr. Yagami.
- Yes?
Copy !req
38. I would like Mr. Mogi to monitor
Light's activities.
Copy !req
39. "Light's activities?"
Copy !req
40. In the event that Light is Kira,
Copy !req
41. the Second Kira might try to contact him
in some way.
Copy !req
42. I understand.
Copy !req
43. So when does Ryuzaki sleep?
Copy !req
44. I saw him sleeping in that
exact same position the other day.
Copy !req
45. I'm serious.
Copy !req
46. So, when a Shinigami has feelings
for someone
Copy !req
47. and kills someone else in order to
extend that person's life,
Copy !req
48. the Shinigami dies, huh?
Copy !req
49. Yes.
Copy !req
50. I can't imagine that there's
a Shinigami who would do that.
Copy !req
51. That's right.
Copy !req
52. It doesn't seem like the kind of thing
you would do.
Copy !req
53. By the way, from where
did you send your tapes
Copy !req
54. to the television stations?
Copy !req
55. Um, the first time was Osaka.
Then it was Tokyo.
Copy !req
56. This other time was from Nagano.
Copy !req
57. I used the Bullet Train so that
my location couldn't be pinpointed.
Copy !req
58. So you still have videotapes and envelopes
Copy !req
59. with your friend's fingerprints
on them, right?
Copy !req
60. Yeah.
Copy !req
61. Then you should dispose of
everything used to create the videos.
Copy !req
62. But only after you've sent one last video
from another location tomorrow.
Copy !req
63. You should say...
Copy !req
64. "I will stop trying to meet Kira.
Copy !req
65. I'd like to thank the police
for their advice,
Copy !req
66. but I'm going to help Kira erase evil
from the world.
Copy !req
67. I'm going to cooperate with him
and gain his acceptance.
Copy !req
68. I will begin by punishing criminals
that Kira hasn't punished yet. Also...
Copy !req
69. I plan to make this world a better place
Copy !req
70. by sharing this power
with those who are worthy."
Copy !req
71. "Share the power?"
Copy !req
72. It's a line to throw off
the investigation.
Copy !req
73. There are already two people
with this power.
Copy !req
74. It's not hard to imagine
that there may be more.
Copy !req
75. And if they believe that they'll multiply,
it will cause panic.
Copy !req
76. Can you do it?
Copy !req
77. You don't have to ask.
Just tell me to do it.
Copy !req
78. I'll do whatever you say.
Copy !req
79. Also, one more important thing.
Copy !req
80. Okay!
Copy !req
81. If you're caught by the police.
Copy !req
82. if you're arrested as a suspect,
Copy !req
83. don't say anything about us
or the notebook.
Copy !req
84. There's no proof against you
Copy !req
85. so long as they don't get
hold of the notebook and verify it.
Copy !req
86. Can you promise to do that?
Copy !req
87. I promise!
Copy !req
88. So then, we're officially boyfriend
and girlfriend, right?
Copy !req
89. Well, I guess so.
Copy !req
90. Now, here are my conditions.
Copy !req
91. You go on a date with me
at least once a week.
Copy !req
92. She really doesn't get it.
Copy !req
93. - That's impossible.
- Why?
Copy !req
94. It doesn't seem like
you'd understand unless I tell you.
Copy !req
95. I already suspects that I'm Kira.
Copy !req
96. What? L's pretty amazing.
Copy !req
97. Everyone says that he doesn't understand
or that he's stupid.
Copy !req
98. So he's actually figured out that much?
Copy !req
99. But thanks to that,
I've also been able to get close to I.
Copy !req
100. Huh? I and Kira are
in contact with each other?
Copy !req
101. You're both amazing.
It's making me kind of excited.
Copy !req
102. Even if I am Kira,
Copy !req
103. I thinks he's safe
as long as he hides his name.
Copy !req
104. He came out and told me that he was L
in order to directly investigate me.
Copy !req
105. But he's only positive
Copy !req
106. because there isn't anyone else
who could possibly be Kira.
Copy !req
107. And if I play it right,
Copy !req
108. he will trust me
and we'll investigate it together.
Copy !req
109. So all you have to do is
take me to wherever I is, right?
Copy !req
110. It's not that simple.
Copy !req
111. It was hard enough for me
to get close to him.
Copy !req
112. Besides, if someone close to me
suddenly steps into the picture,
Copy !req
113. and Kira and Second Kira's actions change,
Copy !req
114. that person will be suspected
of being the Second Kira,
Copy !req
115. and I'll end up casting
more suspicion on myself.
Copy !req
116. It would be bad if we get together
Copy !req
117. and he assumes that we're intimate.
Copy !req
118. Do you understand?
Copy !req
119. Kind of. So does that mean
that we can't go on dates together?
Copy !req
120. We can't meet in public because
you're afraid that he'll suspect you more?
Copy !req
121. No.
Copy !req
122. We should take some time
to come up with a plan
Copy !req
123. so that you can see L
without him knowing about you.
Copy !req
124. Yeah.
Copy !req
125. I need you so that I can be eliminated.
Copy !req
126. I want to be able to keep
in direct contact with you.
Copy !req
127. Thank goodness.
Copy !req
128. So...
Copy !req
129. in order to make sure that
our meetings don't stand out,
Copy !req
130. I'm going to see other girls.
Copy !req
131. Huh? What do you mean?
Copy !req
132. You're going to date other girls?
Copy !req
133. Yeah, pretty much.
Copy !req
134. No way!
Copy !req
135. If I see you with another girl,
I will kill her.
Copy !req
136. Scary!
Copy !req
137. Listen, Misa, sweetie.
Copy !req
138. "Sweetie," huh?
Copy !req
139. This isn't a game.
Copy !req
140. We're both risking our lives
to change the world, aren't we?
Copy !req
141. Yeah, but...
I love you more than the world.
Copy !req
142. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
143. I thought your feelings towards me
were just those of a Kira admirer.
Copy !req
144. Besides, this is the first time we've met.
Copy !req
145. Haven't you ever experienced
love at first sight?
Copy !req
146. Never.
Copy !req
147. Well, yes, I wanted to meet Kira out of
gratitude and approval, not out of love.
Copy !req
148. But, when I first laid eyes on you...
Copy !req
149. What's with this girl?
Copy !req
150. Popular as always.
Copy !req
151. Well, if you love me, you'll obey me.
Copy !req
152. You told me that
you didn't mind being used
Copy !req
153. and earlier, you insisted that
you'd do as I say, right?
Copy !req
154. But I won't let you date other girls.
Copy !req
155. Those are two different things.
Copy !req
156. I have both notebooks.
Copy !req
157. If you won't obey me, I'll kill you.
Copy !req
158. I won't let you do that, Light Yagami.
Copy !req
159. If you try to kill her,
Copy !req
160. I will write your name in my notebook...
Copy !req
161. and kill you.
Copy !req
162. I can see her lifespan.
Copy !req
163. If she dies before then,
I'll assume that you killed her.
Copy !req
164. Wouldn't you die if you used
your notebook to save her?
Copy !req
165. That's right! Then you'll die, Rem!
Copy !req
166. That's true.
Copy !req
167. But I don't care.
Copy !req
168. Is this Shinigami serious?
Copy !req
169. If so, that means that from now on...
Copy !req
170. Light?
Copy !req
171. What is it, Mom?
Copy !req
172. It's already 11:30.
Copy !req
173. It's not nice to have a girl
stay out so late.
Copy !req
174. Yeah, you're right.
Copy !req
175. We had a long chat.
Copy !req
176. Sorry, Mrs. Yagami.
Copy !req
177. I'm sorry for staying so late.
Copy !req
178. - Light, see you later.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
179. Light, walk her to the station.
Copy !req
180. It won't be good to walk
outside with her now.
Copy !req
181. It's all right. Good night!
Copy !req
182. She's cute.
Copy !req
183. Oh yeah. I was a bit worried at first,
but she sure is cute.
Copy !req
184. I like her!
Copy !req
185. So that Shinigami will kill me
if I kill the girl?
Copy !req
186. Does that mean I have to deal with her
until she dies?
Copy !req
187. And not just that.
Copy !req
188. I'm forced to protect her so that
she doesn't get caught by the police.
Copy !req
189. Thanks to you,
Light really has become my knight.
Copy !req
190. So it seems.
Copy !req
191. But don't actually kill him, okay?
Copy !req
192. In order to kill a Shinigami,
Copy !req
193. that Shinigami has to use the Death Note
Copy !req
194. to save the life of the human
it has fallen in love with.
Copy !req
195. I can't kill Rem by using the Death Note
Copy !req
196. to control someone
and make them attack Misa.
Copy !req
197. If Misa's put in danger,
I'll be made a suspect and killed.
Copy !req
198. Right now, she is
an even bigger nuisance than I.
Copy !req
199. She's...
Copy !req
200. She does something this conspicuous?
Copy !req
201. What'll happen if they found out
that I met up with someone like this?
Copy !req
202. Damn it! She's in the way,
no matter how I think about it.
Copy !req
203. What do I do?
Copy !req
204. No, I should think of a way
to use Misa's eyes to kill I.
Copy !req
205. If I just eliminate L...
Copy !req
206. Good morning, Light!
Copy !req
207. Good morning.
Copy !req
208. Mom, Sayu, could you keep Misa
a secret from Dad?
Copy !req
209. All right.
Copy !req
210. I also want you to keep it a secret,
not just from Dad,
Copy !req
211. but from everyone else.
Copy !req
212. She's actually
an up-and-coming model,
Copy !req
213. so it'd be a problem
if people found out about us.
Copy !req
214. What? Really?
Copy !req
215. I thought she was cute.
Copy !req
216. Just what I'd expect as your girlfriend.
Copy !req
217. I'll keep it a secret... for 5,000 yen.
Copy !req
218. Silly.
Copy !req
219. TO-OH UNIVERSITY
Copy !req
220. On page 246...
Copy !req
221. Misa's final message will arrive today.
Copy !req
222. Instead of going to the TV station,
Copy !req
223. it should end up
at the Task Force headquarters.
Copy !req
224. I have to go to Headquarters
to see L's reaction.
Copy !req
225. Yagami? Yagami?
Copy !req
226. You told me that you would
go out with me, right?
Copy !req
227. Yeah, I did.
Copy !req
228. That's why I'm sitting next to you
at this lecture.
Copy !req
229. Yes.
Copy !req
230. But you don't seem happy at all.
Copy !req
231. You've been completely ignoring me.
Copy !req
232. That's not true at all.
Copy !req
233. I was just thinking about the way
everyone's going to be talking about us.
Copy !req
234. To think that I'm going out with you,
the famous Miss To-oh University.
Copy !req
235. It's obvious
that you really are beautiful.
Copy !req
236. Please don't think about such things.
Copy !req
237. I don't like being called "Miss Whatever."
Copy !req
238. Yeah, you're right.
Copy !req
239. What's with this woman? She loves it.
Copy !req
240. Miss Takada, let's just take things
at our own pace.
Copy !req
241. Okay.
Copy !req
242. Hello.
Copy !req
243. Light, good timing.
Copy !req
244. A video message from
the Second Kira has just arrived.
Copy !req
245. Another one? That was fast.
Copy !req
246. Yes, I think this is the last one.
Copy !req
247. Well, take a look at this.
Copy !req
248. I will stop trying to meet Kira.
Copy !req
249. I'd like to thank the police
for their advice,
Copy !req
250. but I'm going to help Kira erase evil
from the world.
Copy !req
251. I'm going to cooperate with him
and gain his acceptance.
Copy !req
252. I will begin by punishing criminals
that Kira hasn't punished yet. And...
Copy !req
253. I plan to make this world a better place
Copy !req
254. by sharing this power
with those who are worthy.
Copy !req
255. Watching this...
Copy !req
256. makes me feel that Kira
and the Second Kira have joined forces.
Copy !req
257. Why do you think that?
Copy !req
258. Didn't you sense it?
Copy !req
259. I thought you would
get the same impression.
Copy !req
260. First of all, his attitude towards
meeting Kira has completely changed.
Copy !req
261. And now he says that he wants
to punish the criminals
Copy !req
262. that Kira didn't punish
in order to earn his approval.
Copy !req
263. Why didn't he do this before?
Copy !req
264. He probably never thought
that far ahead, so...
Copy !req
265. it's likely that he's working with Kira
and was told to say that.
Copy !req
266. He was also ordered to hide the fact
that they're working together.
Copy !req
267. I see.
Copy !req
268. That probably means that
Kira isn't thinking about his actions.
Copy !req
269. Yes.
Copy !req
270. Did Kira encounter something
he couldn't overcome?
Copy !req
271. He was probably trying to scare us
by making it obvious
Copy !req
272. that he had recruited the Second Kira.
Copy !req
273. Their union is really threatening.
Copy !req
274. But this makes me
less suspicious of Light.
Copy !req
275. What do you mean, Ryuzaki?
Copy !req
276. If Light was Kira,
Copy !req
277. then he wouldn't have sent
in a video like this.
Copy !req
278. He would have tried to threaten me, L,
so that I'd appear on television again.
Copy !req
279. Maintaining the lie that
they aren't working together,
Copy !req
280. he would have placed all
the responsibility on Second Kira.
Copy !req
281. And this is what he'd make him say:
Copy !req
282. "I stopped because Kira told me to,
Copy !req
283. but I don't think that warning
would come from the real Kira.
Copy !req
284. Kira would be happy if I died.
Copy !req
285. There's no way he'd make me stop."
Copy !req
286. - Ryuzaki.
- Yes?
Copy !req
287. If I were Kira, I would never do that.
Copy !req
288. Why not?
Copy !req
289. I know your personality.
Copy !req
290. I would never go on television,
no matter how he was being threatened.
Copy !req
291. He wouldn't want to die
in someone else's place.
Copy !req
292. He would think of some way to escape.
Copy !req
293. You figured it out.
Copy !req
294. Light, stop saying, "If I were Kira."
Copy !req
295. I don't like hearing it,
even hypothetically.
Copy !req
296. Oh, sorry, Dad.
Copy !req
297. But I wanted to tell Ryuzaki
what I think.
Copy !req
298. I have to pose a hypothetical scenario
Copy !req
299. to solve this case quickly
and clear my name.
Copy !req
300. Besides, I can talk in that manner
because I'm not Kira.
Copy !req
301. You're right.
Copy !req
302. You're not Kira.
Copy !req
303. In fact, it would be a problem
if you were Kira,
Copy !req
304. because you are...
Copy !req
305. my very first friend.
Copy !req
306. Yes, Ryuzaki, I consider you a friend too.
We have so much in common.
Copy !req
307. Thank you.
Copy !req
308. I've been lonely since you started
taking breaks from school.
Copy !req
309. I'd like to play tennis with you again.
Copy !req
310. Yes. By all means.
Copy !req
311. Friend?
Copy !req
312. Friend, huh? Aren't you happy, Light?
Copy !req
313. That damn Ryuzaki immediately noticed
Copy !req
314. the connection between
Kira and the Second Kira.
Copy !req
315. I've got to eliminate him quickly.
Copy !req
316. Oh, I see.
Copy !req
317. This makes it even more dangerous
for me to see Misa.
Copy !req
318. Light!
Copy !req
319. I couldn't wait two weeks.
Copy !req
320. I was just about to go to your house!
Copy !req
321. This is the first time
I've really wanted to hit a woman.
Copy !req
322. I... I just wanted to see you so badly.
Copy !req
323. Well, come over to my house.
Copy !req
324. Okay!
Copy !req
325. Another girl?
Copy !req
326. Welcome, Misa! I saw you in
a whole bunch of magazines.
Copy !req
327. Welcome.
Copy !req
328. Sorry for the intrusion.
Copy !req
329. Mom, please prepare some tea.
Copy !req
330. - Rem.
- Yeah?
Copy !req
331. You're Misa's ally, aren't you?
Copy !req
332. Yeah, I've watched her many times
from the Shinigami Realm.
Copy !req
333. I've developed some affection for her.
Copy !req
334. Affection? Even though you're a Shinigami?
Copy !req
335. You don't seem to like that I said
I would kill you if you tried to kill her.
Copy !req
336. Does this mean that if Misa's happy,
you'll feel fine too?
Copy !req
337. Well, you could say that.
Copy !req
338. I just don't want to see her unhappy.
Copy !req
339. Misa is...
Copy !req
340. in love with me.
Copy !req
341. Light.
Copy !req
342. - Misa.
- Yes?
Copy !req
343. Would my happiness make you happy?
Copy !req
344. Yes.
Copy !req
345. In that case, could you ask Rem to kill L?
Copy !req
346. Rem wants you to be happy.
Copy !req
347. If I catches either one of us,
we'll both be unhappy.
Copy !req
348. A Shinigami can't mention a person's name
to someone with a notebook,
Copy !req
349. but there's no restriction
that forbids Rem from killing anyone.
Copy !req
350. Yeah. And if you kill L,
I think I can love Misa more
Copy !req
351. and I would be very grateful.
Copy !req
352. Above all, it'll make us both happy.
Copy !req
353. Rem.
Copy !req
354. I want Light to love me.
Copy !req
355. Light and I would be very grateful.
Copy !req
356. That would make me happy.
Copy !req
357. Fine.
Copy !req
358. Fine, Light Yagami. But I don't like you.
Copy !req
359. Even if this ends up lengthening
your lifespan, I won't die.
Copy !req
360. I will kill I for you.
Copy !req
361. I means nothing to me.
Copy !req
362. All right!
Copy !req
363. Thank you, Rem!
Copy !req
364. That's my Rem!
Copy !req
365. I will die...
Copy !req
366. this easily?
Copy !req
367. TO BE CONTINUED
Copy !req
