Stop right there!!!!

What are the odds of us running into the thief right after meeting back up...?!

Still, how is this guy so fast...?!

Yes, we're going to lose him at this rate...!
The other troupe members said they called in for reinforcements, but I don't know if they'll make it in time.

No!!!
The ninja thief's too fast!

Huh...?
There's someone standing on the other side of the road.

Freeze, thief!!!!

Oh! That sounded like...

It's Mr. Kijima!!!

Grr...!!!

You've got nowhere to run now!
Give up already!

If we can keep driving him in Mr. Kijima's direction, then...

...!!!
Hup!

What...?!

H-He jumped towards that wall... And now he's climbing up it?!

Whoa!!! He's like a real ninja!

W-We don't have time to gawk!
He's gonna get away.

Perfect.

*Roar*

Tsukasa...?!

Wait...
Is he going to climb up that wall to catch him?!

What?!
But I thought he couldn't figure out how to wall jump...!

You can do it, Tsukasa!!!

(I have to kick the right part of the wall.
I can't go too high or too low.)

(It has to be a part of the wall where I can get a good enough footing to push off hard.)

(I succeeded up to that point during practice, but always found myself coming up one step short.)

(But...
After hearing that piece of advice, I know what to do now!)

(I struggled to climb because I wasn't thinking about propelling myself up.)

(I was too focused on getting a good grip on the wall, and ended up leaning into it too much.)

(Which means I just need to use my entire body to jump upwards! That's all I have to do!)

(I can do this now! I know it...!
That piece of advice should allow me to...!!!)

Fly, Tenma!!!

Go as high as you can!!!

*Roar*

...!!!

He did it...!!!

H-He climbed up it...!!!!

B-But this seems really dangerous...!
If they get into a grappling contest up there...

Alright...

You're coming with me! The underworld awaits us!

Huh? Th-The underworld?

*Roar*

H-He tackled him. But they're so high up...

They're falling...!
Tsukasa!!!

W-Waaahhh!!!!

(At this rate, we're both going to slam into the ground! However...!)

(I'll be fine! Because I have friends!!!)

*Roar*

Whoa!
Mr. Kijima's running over with something really fluffy-looking!

Are those bales of hay...?!
Oh, he's using the things that were in front of the tatami shop as cushions.

Oof...

Phew...
I think we made it...

H-He did it!!!
They're both safe!

Thank goodness...

*Groan*

You're not getting away this time!
And you'll be giving your statement at the park office.

Grr...

Thank you very much, Mr. Kijima...!
I wouldn't have been able to catch him without your help!

No, Tenma, you deserve all the credit.
I think he would've gotten away again if we'd just ambushed him.

In any case, it's finally over...

Did you see that, Mommy?!
That was so cool!!!

Huh?

Yes, it was...!
It was like a real police chase!

I'd heard that the shows they do here are good, but not this good...!

Wait, they think...

Yes, they all seem to believe that it was some kind of performance.

“We really had our hands full with this one, didn't we, Mr. Ginnosuke...?!”

Hm?

“His speed and agility...
I'm still yet to actually come face to face with him, but he reminded me of that swift-footed thief, Chusuke.”

“Easy, Heihachi.
This one's nothing compared to Chusuke.”

“He's got the fastest legs under the sun!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be called the swift-footed thief.”

“R-Really...?
Chusuke's that fast?”

“Yeah, but...”

“We're going to catch him.”

“The two of us! Together!”

“Right...!
I've got a feeling we can catch anyone as long as we work together, Mr. Ginnosuke!”

That concludes this special episode of “Ginnosuke's on the Case!”, which has been temporarily canceled.

We hope you'll all come watch when we're allowed to resume!!!

Cool...!
I didn't know there was more to this story!

What we saw today was good, but now I wanna see who this other baddie is. I mean, he sounded really tough!

(He really is something else...)

(He's still young, but has honed his acting skills and raised his fitness to an incredible level. Not only that, he's able to make the picture in his head a reality when things really count...)

(The heart required to be able to do that...)

(It allows him to make all the guests smile like this. He genuinely wants them to enjoy themselves.)

I can't wait to see what happens moving forward...!
