1. Oh, Corinna.
Copy !req
2. Why was your letter so short?
Copy !req
3. Just like Eupolis who practiced, practiced,
and practiced astrology,
Copy !req
4. my heart is troubled by you.
Copy !req
5. Idas's gold faded, and Galonus the carpenter...
Copy !req
6. That's enough.
Copy !req
7. There's no need for you to read any further.
Copy !req
8. What's wrong?
Copy !req
9. That's enough.
Copy !req
10. Go home.
Copy !req
11. I'm sorry. Did I do anything to upset you?
Copy !req
12. People who can't pronounce Latin correctly
have no right to read a book to me.
Copy !req
13. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
14. I'll try harder in the future.
Copy !req
15. I'm telling you to leave.
Copy !req
16. Thursday's Boy
Copy !req
17. Munich University
Friedrich Emmanuel School
Copy !req
18. You really got scolded
harshly at the mansion.
Copy !req
19. Cheer up.
Copy !req
20. Business management major, Karl Neuman.
Copy !req
21. How do you know about me?
What's your name?
Copy !req
22. I'm Lotte Frank,
a cultural anthropology major.
Copy !req
23. Are you also reading
books to him as a part-time job?
Copy !req
24. No, I just take care of the place.
Copy !req
25. Only male students read to him.
Copy !req
26. You're the person who
reads to him on Tuesdays.
Copy !req
27. On other days, he has other students come and
read to him since his eyesight has worsened.
Copy !req
28. What do you think of him?
Copy !req
29. That mysterious millionaire,
Hans George Schubert.
Copy !req
30. I... I don't know.
Copy !req
31. I just thought that the wage he was paying for the
part-time job was pretty good, so I jumped at it.
Copy !req
32. Have you heard the numerous
rumors about him?
Copy !req
33. They say there's a phone line in the mansion where he can
manipulate the German stock market any way he wishes.
Copy !req
34. They call him the Howard Hughes of Bayern.
Copy !req
35. He has no family and no acquaintances, but his
fortune just keeps growing and growing.
Copy !req
36. What do you think he
does with all that money?
Copy !req
37. I don't know.
Copy !req
38. There's an even bigger mystery than that!
Copy !req
39. He is also called the Vampire of Bayern.
Copy !req
40. Vampire?
Copy !req
41. When the clock strikes two in the morning, he gets
in a car that looks like a Hearse and goes to town.
Copy !req
42. It looks just like a scene
from a gothic horror movie.
Copy !req
43. He was probably just going out for a stroll.
Copy !req
44. I'm going to confirm for myself whether
or not it was just an ordinary stroll.
Copy !req
45. Confirm for yourself? What are you saying?
Copy !req
46. It's for my research paper.
Copy !req
47. "Mental Activity of Medieval and Current
Day Financial Figures in Bayern."
Copy !req
48. He's a great sample for sure.
Copy !req
49. So you investigated me in the same manner.
Copy !req
50. I only looked up your name and major.
Copy !req
51. You shouldn't worry about his yelling at you.
Copy !req
52. He says cruel things to all the students.
Copy !req
53. I'm used to getting yelled at and beaten up.
Copy !req
54. Used to...?
Copy !req
55. A lot happened with my foster parents.
Copy !req
56. You aren't from one of the
local high schools, are you?
Copy !req
57. So you did investigate me.
Copy !req
58. I see. You don't have any parents.
Copy !req
59. The truth is I was hoping to meet my real
mother in Munich, so I transferred here.
Copy !req
60. So your mother is in Munich?
Copy !req
61. Have you seen her?
Copy !req
62. No. I don't care anymore.
Copy !req
63. Huh? Why?
Copy !req
64. You're finally close to her.
Copy !req
65. You probably know her name, right?
Copy !req
66. Yeah.
Copy !req
67. What is it?
Copy !req
68. I told you, it doesn't matter anymore.
Copy !req
69. Tell me!
Copy !req
70. I'm interested now.
I'll figure it out eventually anyway.
Copy !req
71. Margot...
Copy !req
72. Margot Langer.
Copy !req
73. If you know that much,
it shouldn't be hard to find her.
Copy !req
74. Go see her. She'll be happy.
Copy !req
75. I told you, it doesn't matter.
Copy !req
76. Margot Langer... Margot Langer...
Copy !req
77. No way!
Copy !req
78. The galloping of the chestnut-colored horse was like
lightning striking the ground and large waves crashing.
Copy !req
79. I can't take it.
Copy !req
80. I only love beautiful things.
Copy !req
81. I can't listen to that anymore.
Copy !req
82. Why didn't you tell me?
Copy !req
83. I looked up your mother.
Copy !req
84. What can I say?
Copy !req
85. It's okay. Just drop it.
Copy !req
86. Karl, isn't there anything
I can do to help you?
Copy !req
87. Thanks, but don't worry about me.
Copy !req
88. Karl...
Copy !req
89. Lotte, you said that you wanted to see
what Hans Schubert does at night.
Copy !req
90. Can I come with you?
Copy !req
91. Of course. If you come with me,
I'll feel a lot better.
Copy !req
92. It's true!
Copy !req
93. This is my first big scoop.
Copy !req
94. Really?
Copy !req
95. It's perfectly clear that one of the men who founded
this school in 1502, Bishop Gropius, wrote this.
Copy !req
96. The most important part is this line here.
Copy !req
97. "In the second-to-last larger year,
Copy !req
98. the Thursday Boy will come to this land,
Copy !req
99. and the books shall be engulfed in flames,
Copy !req
100. and the whole world will
be wrapped in sorrow."
Copy !req
101. So what does that mean?
Copy !req
102. Will you ever get it?
Copy !req
103. This... "In the second-to-last larger year"...
Copy !req
104. It's 1996! So it's this year.
Copy !req
105. Why?
Copy !req
106. The "larger year" means leap years.
Copy !req
107. The only leap years left in this
century are this year and 2000.
Copy !req
108. "The Thursday Boy will come to this land,
and the books shall be engulfed in flame."
Copy !req
109. "The books of this land in flames"
means that this school will burn.
Copy !req
110. Then who is this "Thursday Boy"?
Copy !req
111. Thursday is "Donnerstag."
The origin of that is "Donner."
Copy !req
112. In other words, "thunder."
It must be the lightning god!
Copy !req
113. What a whopper!
Copy !req
114. This is no time to be laughing.
Copy !req
115. This will be the hit story of the next issue.
Copy !req
116. We won't have a problem writing this,
but who's going to believe it?
Copy !req
117. Who'd believe that a god of destruction
would come to this school?
Copy !req
118. Screw the "Vampire of Bayern"!
Copy !req
119. Is this the truth behind
the mysterious night out?
Copy !req
120. What a let down!
Copy !req
121. Shh! Here he comes.
Copy !req
122. How ridiculous.
Copy !req
123. I'm going home.
Copy !req
124. Take care.
Copy !req
125. Huh?
Copy !req
126. I'm going to go take a look.
Copy !req
127. Go where?
Copy !req
128. Let's give up already.
Copy !req
129. This isn't the place for a girl.
Copy !req
130. Go home.
Copy !req
131. "I only love beautiful things."
Copy !req
132. I want to know.
Copy !req
133. I want to know how low a man he really is.
Copy !req
134. It's open.
Copy !req
135. If you're looking for a girl,
this is the wrong place.
Copy !req
136. I retired a long time ago.
Copy !req
137. Who are you?
Copy !req
138. You should introduce yourself first
before you ask someone's name.
Copy !req
139. I'm Margot Langer.
Copy !req
140. You look like college students.
Copy !req
141. Yes. We work part time for Mr. Hans Schubert.
Copy !req
142. What do you want with me?
Copy !req
143. Why does Hans Schubert come here?
Copy !req
144. "He comes for pleasure."
Copy !req
145. That's what I'd like to say, but it seems that his
thing down there doesn't work anymore.
Copy !req
146. He comes to give me money.
Copy !req
147. Huh?
Copy !req
148. Naturally. When I came to him and told him
who I was, he cried and apologized to me.
Copy !req
149. He left me with a child and threw
me away like trash.
Copy !req
150. Karl, don't tell me... that you're
Hans Schubert's child?
Copy !req
151. But...
Copy !req
152. You're lying.
Copy !req
153. You're not Margot Langer.
Copy !req
154. That's right. It was in the paper
a year ago. "Former..."
Copy !req
155. "Former Prostitute Margot Langer
Murdered — Killer Unknown."
Copy !req
156. His mother is already dead.
Copy !req
157. You're using the name of Margot Langer
to swindle Hans Schubert out of money.
Copy !req
158. He knows it, too.
Copy !req
159. He gives me money, even though he knows
I'm not the real Margot Langer.
Copy !req
160. He knows that giving all his money away
won't bring the real Margot Langer back.
Copy !req
161. It's his way of paying for his sins.
Copy !req
162. With money! Money! Money!
Copy !req
163. A man who has lived only for money can't
think of anything other than money.
Copy !req
164. It might sound a bit arrogant, but
people aren't all that different.
Copy !req
165. There's a method where introducing yourself
as his son gets you a piece of that dying
man's ridiculously large fortune.
Copy !req
166. What are you trying to say?
Copy !req
167. I might be a liar, but...
Copy !req
168. you know what I'm talking about.
Copy !req
169. There's another one.
Copy !req
170. Another boy who calls himself his son.
Copy !req
171. He came here with the same story.
Copy !req
172. No way.
Copy !req
173. You don't mean...
Copy !req
174. It can't be. He's lying.
Copy !req
175. I don't know who's telling a lie.
Copy !req
176. You both look like imposters to me.
Copy !req
177. Who is he?
Copy !req
178. He's the same as you.
Copy !req
179. You take turns reading to him
on different days, don't you?
Copy !req
180. That boy is also one of them.
Copy !req
181. He is the "Thursday Boy."
Copy !req
182. Why didn't you tell her that
you were the real one?
Copy !req
183. I've been sent to live with
many foster parents.
Copy !req
184. There were good ones and bad ones,
Copy !req
185. but the ones I have now
really take care of me.
Copy !req
186. I feel that I could never thank them enough.
Copy !req
187. But I've always felt that I
needed to meet my real parents.
Copy !req
188. I wanted to know how low
my real father was...
Copy !req
189. so that I could love my
current parents with all my heart.
Copy !req
190. That was it.
Copy !req
191. Have you ever seen the "Thursday Boy"?
Copy !req
192. I have Thursdays off, so...
Copy !req
193. Once I went to get something
I had left behind, though.
Copy !req
194. Did you see him?
Copy !req
195. What did he look like?
Copy !req
196. He was blonde and had a handsome face...
Copy !req
197. Monday
Copy !req
198. Who is he?
Copy !req
199. Who is the "Thursday Boy"?
Copy !req
200. There's a boy here pretending to be me.
Copy !req
201. Got it? Listen to what Momma
has to say to you.
Copy !req
202. Take this money and get on the fifth train line.
Copy !req
203. Get off at the eighth station. A lady
named Marta will be there.
Copy !req
204. What about you?
Copy !req
205. I told you that I can't go with you.
Copy !req
206. Are the police chasing you?
Copy !req
207. I want to be with you.
Copy !req
208. If you stay with me, you'll be put
into an orphanage.
Copy !req
209. If you stay here, people will call
you the son of a whore.
Copy !req
210. So hurry.
Copy !req
211. My father is Hans George Schubert.
Copy !req
212. Who did you hear that from?
Copy !req
213. Mrs. Bella from across the street said so.
Copy !req
214. He's rich, isn't he?
Copy !req
215. She said that I was abandoned by my father.
Copy !req
216. You weren't abandoned.
Copy !req
217. Then I'll go see him.
Copy !req
218. You can't now.
Copy !req
219. Then when?
Copy !req
220. When you grow up.
Copy !req
221. If you want to see him, see him then.
Copy !req
222. But you mustn't want anything from him.
Copy !req
223. You must not hate him if
he treats you coldly.
Copy !req
224. Why?
Copy !req
225. Because I don't hate him.
Copy !req
226. Take this.
Copy !req
227. Your father gave you this
when you were born.
Copy !req
228. Karl!
Copy !req
229. I figured it out!
Copy !req
230. I figured out who the "Thursday Boy" is.
Copy !req
231. His name is Edmund Fahren.
Copy !req
232. He's a philosophical literature major.
Copy !req
233. He reads books to Mr. Schubert
as a part-time job on Thursdays.
Copy !req
234. Edmund Fahren.
Copy !req
235. This is it.
Copy !req
236. The lecture just ended for this classroom.
Copy !req
237. Excuse me.
Copy !req
238. We'd like to see Edmund Fahren.
Copy !req
239. Is Edmund here?
Copy !req
240. Edmund? He didn't come today.
Copy !req
241. That's what they say.
Copy !req
242. Really...
Copy !req
243. It's too bad.
Copy !req
244. But it's only a matter of time.
Copy !req
245. We'll catch that imposter.
Copy !req
246. You're the one who should
inherit Schubert's fortune.
Copy !req
247. That's not true.
Copy !req
248. Huh?
Copy !req
249. I don't care about the inheritance.
Copy !req
250. But...
Copy !req
251. I don't care how much money
he cons out of him.
Copy !req
252. I just...
Copy !req
253. You just...
Copy !req
254. I just can't forgive Edmund Fahren for
calling himself my mother's son.
Copy !req
255. Tuesday
Copy !req
256. The petals of your silk flower
petals flutter in the wind,
Copy !req
257. and a mocking bird sang in my heart.
Copy !req
258. You haven't said anything today,
Mr. Schubert.
Copy !req
259. Why didn't you quit after I
yelled at you so much?
Copy !req
260. Was the money that good?
Copy !req
261. That's not it...
Copy !req
262. No, it's not that.
Copy !req
263. Can you talk about anything but money?
Copy !req
264. Just as you said.
Copy !req
265. Where are your parents?
Copy !req
266. I have foster parents.
Copy !req
267. I see.
Copy !req
268. Forgive me for asking, but do you
want to meet your real parents?
Copy !req
269. The truth is...
Copy !req
270. It seems the boy who appeared
this time is the real thing.
Copy !req
271. He doesn't want money.
Copy !req
272. He?
Copy !req
273. Sorry. I was talking to myself.
Copy !req
274. You can go home.
Copy !req
275. I forgot to mention...
Copy !req
276. Your Latin's gotten better.
Copy !req
277. Thank you.
Copy !req
278. Wednesday
Copy !req
279. It seems like Edmund Fahren
is absent again today.
Copy !req
280. He must have caught a cold.
Copy !req
281. Either way, tomorrow is Thursday.
Copy !req
282. He'll show up for his job
with Mr. Schubert.
Copy !req
283. I see. He'll show his true
colors in front of Mr. Schubert.
Copy !req
284. We'll get him... We'll get him good!
Copy !req
285. Thursday
Copy !req
286. He hasn't shown up. It's been an hour!
Copy !req
287. If he caught a cold,
he might be staying home.
Copy !req
288. Hey, do you want to give
him a surprise visit?
Copy !req
289. You went so far as to look
up his address already?
Copy !req
290. 204, 204, 204.
Copy !req
291. This is it.
Copy !req
292. Well, go on.
Copy !req
293. Friday
Copy !req
294. How horrible.
Copy !req
295. Everyone's talking about Edmund Fahren.
Copy !req
296. They can't believe he committed suicide.
Copy !req
297. His last testament is in the
school paper, right?
Copy !req
298. "I can't pretend any longer."
Copy !req
299. He's talking about...
Copy !req
300. Yeah, after pretending to be Schubert's son and becoming
close to him, he was consumed by pangs of guilt.
Copy !req
301. If he was going to be troubled so much that he would
kill himself, he shouldn't have done it in the first place.
Copy !req
302. Lotte.
Copy !req
303. Yesterday was quite a ruckus, wasn't it?
Copy !req
304. Yes, it was. We were questioned
by the police all day.
Copy !req
305. My reading was called off today.
Copy !req
306. Mr. Schubert was very troubled by the news.
Copy !req
307. Karl, I'll introduce you.
Copy !req
308. This is the Friday reader.
Copy !req
309. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
310. Hi. I'm Karl Neuman,
a business management major.
Copy !req
311. I'm a law major, Johan Liebert.
Copy !req
312. The Secret Woods
Copy !req
