Suoh come here too. Playing cold weather is fun. [a paper snow] p. 17 AKIRA It's amazing to be able to play disaster inside the Student Government Room. NOKORU I've been preparing it since yesterday. This CLAMP Campus is all central air conditioned so it's always spring! So I thought at least the Student Government Room should have weather.... p. 18 SUOH Look at those documents. You've been playing around these days so the student government work has basically not been done. SUOH I really need you to be 'serious' now or we'll be stranded in this pile of documents. [NOKORU: Hmmm "serious"....] AKIRA Here you go Suoh-sempai. SUOH Thank you NOKORU Suoh SUOH What is it. P. 19 NOKORU It is true that I am a flake for not doing my work, but Akira is also playing too!! [look at it!] SUOH Ijyuin has already finished today's student government work. NOKORU A...Akira when did you... SUOH Unlike Kaichou, Ijyuin is doing his treasurer work seriously every day. p. 20 NOKORU Are you saying that I am not serious suoh! Look at this eyes that are full with eagerness. SUOH Results over eagerness. NOKORU Suoh SUOH What is it. P. 21 NOKORU Is lady Nagisa well? NOKORU %Suoh is naive so he's easy to play with. [fun!!] [tidy] [SUOH: silent] p. 22 [surveying] NOKORU %the sky is so blue...sob p. 23 NOKORU %That is... SUOH Kaichou? SUOH W...what is it Kaichou! AKIRA Kaichou! Ahhh! SUOH Kaichou!! p. 24 AKIRA K...Kaichou jumped from the window...!! Did he hate the Student Government work that much! SUOH You're kidding! p. 25 SUOH %That's impossible!! Kaichou!! NOKORU Suoh p. 26 NOKORU I'm here. [NOKORU: What?] SUOH You!! NOKORU You were worried about me, Suoh you are kind. AKIRA Kaichou!! Takamura-sempai!! Are you alright!? NOKORU Suoh came to help me, so I'm alright Akira. p. 27 SUOH Why are you in such a place... NOKORU I saw something interesting stuck on the tree. SUOH Interesting? p. 28 AKIRA What is this? NOKORU It's a stocking. AKIRA Stocking? NOKORU A silk stocking. AKIRA Silk? NOKORU It's the silk stocking that Western noble ladies preferred. AKIRA Wow, Kaichou you do know a lot of things. p. 29 SUOH But why did that silk stocking was at that kind of place. NOKORU A mischievous act of a wind or intentional, who does this silk stocking belong to, why was it on the tree underneath the Student Government window...it's a pretty sexy case. SUOH %Bad feeling. NOKORU Akira... AKIRA Yes Kaichou. NOKORU Will you make some tea. Who is the owner of this silk stocking. Why was it on that tree, let's reason it through. SUOH %just as I thought... p. 30 SUOH Kaichou NOKORU What is it Suoh? SUOH What are you going to do about that pile of documents? NOKORU Akira, Suoh's tea is no sugar. SUOH Don't change the subject! NOKORU Suoh...at this moment a woman might be in distressed somewhere, crying somewhere. No one can say that this silk stocking isn't an SOS message by a weak woman. p. 31 NOKORU Suoh, if Lady Nagisa was in need of your help, would you ignore her because you were too busy with your Student Government work? SUOH I would not... NOKORU I understand! I truly understand! NOKORU You will help Lady Nagisa in her time of need, like the wisteria trellis case last time. We, the "CLAMP Campus Detective Team" was formed to help "woman." p. 32 NOKORU If we don't help, who will Suoh. So let's reason out about this silk stocking with me! [twinkling] SUOH %...I've been swindled again... p. 33 AKIRA But really, why was this stocking lying at that kind of a place. NOKORU Hm, the possibilities that I can think of: 1. someone dropped it. SUOH How did anyone drop it on top of that tree. NOKORU Then, 2. They put it there deliberately. AKIRA On top of a tree? What are they going to use it for. NOKORU Hm. This silk stocking...England's Royal Family employed Silkmusett's {don't know who that is.} [very expensive!!] AKIRA England's Royal Family, that's amazing! NOKORU This atmosphere, beautiful line, it's the first rate product of the world that women adore. SUOH %He really knows anything "about women." p. 34 NOKORU What do you think Suoh? SUOH [thinking] It may have been blown by a wind? The building that has the Student Government Room also has the room of the acting club. NOKORU I see, the acting club also does old European plays so it isn't strange that there would be a silk stocking. 3. It was blown by a wind. Akira what do you think? AKIRA Me? Hm. AKIRA Maybe the squirrel-san brought it. The squirrel used it to carry acorns. It fills this silk stocking with lots of acorns and use it to carry it. NOKORU A squirrel's backpack...it sounds like a fairy tale. 4. Used it to put something in it. Yes, yes it is a convincing theory. SUOH %How did a squirrel acquire a silk stocking... AKIRA How about your reasoning Kaichou? NOKORU Mine? p. 35 NOKORU The owner of this silk stocking is a woman with a high taste. AKIRA Why? NOKORU It's the perfume. AKIRA & SUOH Perfume!? NOKORU It smells remotely of citrus, but it resembles nothing that I have smelt before... AKIRA Wow, I'm amazed that there is something that Kaichou doesn't know about female products. NOKORU Hm, it reminds me of something. SUOH So, what is the result of the reasoning. p. 36 NOKORU Yes...I got it! This silk stocking is... SUOH Yes... NOKORU The first grade Z class, class president, Miss Mako Ohkawa. p. 37 MAKO Hello, there is something that I wanted to ask... NOKORU Please... to be help a beautiful woman is my pleasure. MAKO How flattering. I am looking for something. NOKORU For something. MAKO Yes it is... MAKO It's this silk stocking! p. 38 NOKORU, AKIRA, SUOH What? MAKO Suddenly a strong wind blew and this stocking was blown away... NOKORU The owner of this stocking was Miss Mako. A silk stocking, very elegant. MAKO This stocking isn't for wearing. NOKORU, AKIRA, SUOH What? MAKO You use it like this. [Orange] p. 39 MAKO If you put it in the bath this way, it will be an orange bath. p. 40 MAKO I'm happy that it was found. I promised my sister to have an orange bath again tonight. So have a nice day. p. 41 NOKORU An orange container for an orange bath.... [great!!] [AKIRA: England's Royal Family...] NOKORU Anyway. 3. It was blown away by a wind. 4. Used to put something in. Smell of something citrus was right...Women is an enigma. I still need training. p. 42 NOKORU So! Suoh! Akira! Let's go on a journey to train ourselves! [AKIRA: Well mountains are good for training...] [NOKORU: No, the ocean...} SUOH Kaichou! There are still documents! Kaichou!! FILE 10: Back window p. 45 AKIRA Nice job Kaichou. NOKORU A Tropical drink. Like the all knowing person that you are, Akira you comprehend the situation. AKIRA So what is it this time? p. 46 NOKORU Last time was imagining the North Pole, playing "cold weather" so this time the image of the south, "the resort." AKIRA Kaichou you are truly amazing. NOKORU [brag] This time I'm also doing work so there is no worry of getting scolded by Suoh. AKIRA By the way,where is Takamura-sempai? NOKORU He seemed to have been called to the teacher's lounge... AKIRA The teacher's lounge? p. 47 AKIRA Oh Takamura-sempai, nice work. NOKORU Suoh! Welcome back! Look at this! [DONE] The documents that have already been finished! So that I won't make any more trouble for the Secretary, I have been working very hard on Student Government work while Suoh was gone! p. 48 AKIRA Takamura-sempai are you sick? SUOH No it's not that Ijyuin. NOKORU Look, look suoh, you need not worry, I have already done this much! Look, look! NOKORU What is wrong Suoh? Did something happen? p. 49 SUOH It's...I feel as though I'm being watched... NOKORU Being watched? SUOH I've been feeling someone staring at me since this morning, so I turn around but there is no one there.... NOKORU A stare.... p. 50 NOKORU Isn't it one of Suoh's fans? [GIRLS: Kyaa-!] SUOH But then I should still see a figure. NOKORU Hmmm. AKIRA That is strange. Maybe it's because Kaichou is doing his Student Government work. NOKORU What do you mean by that Akira. AKIRA Something happened that doesn't ordinary happen, so a strange phenomena also occurred on CLAMP Campus. NOKORU A, Akira are you saying that me doing Student Government work is a strange phenomena? p. 51 AKIRA [Smile] It is rare! I thought that it would at least rain! I did the laundry today. I hope mothers will notice it and put them inside the house... NOKORU But that someone who is athletic as Suoh cannot find the 'stare' is strange in deed. p. 52 NOKORU So the CLAMP Campus Detective Team will! SUOH Where are you going? NOKORU To investigate the stare that Suoh was feeling... SUOH Student Government work is first before the stare. p. 53 NOKORU Suoh, aren't you worried as to whom the stare belongs to! And why it was looking at Suoh! SUOH The stare....I'm more worried about that pile of documents. [Unfinished {on the right} Finished {on the left}] p. 54 SUOH It's rare that you are willing to do your work, so let's keep that up until you finish. NOKORU Su, Suoh.... SUOH Recently you haven't been doing your work so today I will have you go through all of the documents!! [NOKORU: He is scary...] p. 55 SUOH Nice job, we are now up to date on all of the work as of today. p. 56 AKIRA Nice job Kaichou!! NOKORU [nearly dead] ...I thought I would die... SUOH If you become serious it's this [this] [Finished] [Nokoru: crying] [Akira: Amazing...] SUOH You always put them off until later so you have to do them all at once. p. 57 AKIRA It's just like the summer vacation homework. NOKORU Summer vacation homework....? {summer vacation homework: In Japan homework are given during summer vacation (and _a lot_ of them) Summer vacation is usually from 7/20-8/31} AKIRA Like, you haven't been doing them until 8/30 and you start to do them the evening of 8/30. NOKORU A...Akira....I've always done my summer vacation home work.... SUOH If I'm correct, last year and the year before that you've been doing them all on 8/31. AKIRA To finish all of summer vacation homework in one day, Kaichou you are truly amazing. But the drills are ok, but what do you about the observation journals? p. 58 SUOH He tapes it on video, and hyper fast forwards it. The observation of morning- glory three years ago. The observation of sponge gourd two years ago. And the observation of sunflower last year was all done that way. [Suoh: Isn't it amazing?] [defeated] [Akira: wow] AKIRA That's amazing. You really know everything about Kaichou, Takamura-sempai. SUOH It just became that way out of necessity. NOKORU You are cruel Suoh! I trust Suoh this much! p. 59 [Unsuspecting Smile] SUOH % How many times have I've been fooled with that smile! AKIRA By the way the observation journal in the summer, I've heard of the ones three years ago, but how was it before that? NOKORU Why don't you ask me Akira? [SUOH: U...] SUOH Before that... NOKORU You don't know before that Suoh. [happy that he can fight back] p. 60 NOKORU Suoh avoided me three years ago. AKIRA [shocked] What!? Avoiding, why Takamura-sempai!! SUOH No...I wasn't really avoiding.... NOKORU Aren't you hungry, Suoh, Akira? p. 61 AKIRA I borrowed the kitchen and made some sandwiches so that we can eat after Kaichou finished the Student Government work. I'll go get them now! NOKORU You were avoiding then. SUOH I wasn't... NOKORU [giggling] You were. I was hated by Suoh back then. SUOH I didn't hate you it was just that.... NOKORU I was "hard to deal with". SUOH Kaichou... p. 62 NOKORU If it wasn't for "that" I would still been hated by Suoh.. AKIRA Sorry to keep you waiting NOKORU Wow, it looks delicious. Come, come Suoh, let's have some! SUOH Ah...yes. p. 63 [Nokoru: what kind of sandwich is this?] [Akira: it's salmon and ham] SUOH % It's been three years since "that".... p. 64 SUOH % Strange...I did feel someone watching me...But feeling a "stare" %from the wall... AKIRA What's wrong Takamura-sempai. NOKORU I'll eat Suoh's too SUOH I'm sorry, I'll be there in a second. % It must be a mere fancy..... Fundamentally the authenticity on ancient documents such as "Nihonshoki" and "Kojiki"... p. 65 PROF A I can't believe that it's a paper done by an elementary school student. Even a college student couldn't handle this. PROF B Takamura hates doing anything that would make him standout. Even this special lecture, we had to talk to him over and over again for him to accept it. PROF A Even us, who is teaching at CLAMP Campus and have become drunk on geniuses and rare students, can see that Takamura has a magnificent mind. SUOH And especially with "Fudoki".... p. 66 PROF A What is it? PROF B Did something happen? SUOH % Again...!! Someone was watching. I felt a stare coming from % that wall... SUOH % Who is.... p. 67 REFEREE Begin! p. 68 REFEREE Ijyuin! AKIRA Thank you very much p. 69 AKIRA Are you all right? Did you get hurt anywhere? GIRL [general screaming] He's so great! Akira-kun is so cute but he's so strong! Usually in sports, Takamura-san, secretary of Student Government stands out, but Akira-kun is amazing too! He's kind, smart, a good cook, and to top it all of he's strong too; he's the perfect husband! p. 70 AKIRA % I felt...someone watching me... SUOH $ I've been feeling someone staring at me since this morning, so I $ turn around but there is no one there.... AKIRA % Takamura-sempai!! [Elementary Student Government Resource Room] p. 71 SUOH ...Who is it watching me for the past couple of days.... Who!! AKIRA Takamura-sempai! SUOH Ijyuin!! p. 72 AKIRA Are you all right Takamura-sempai! SUOH Why are you here.... AKIRA I also felt a "stare." I can't be much of help but I was worried about sempai... SUOH Thank you. AKIRA What is that? SUOH It seems to be the identity of the "stare." AKIRA What? p. 73 CHAIRWOMAN [laughing] Because of your recklessness, it seems to have broke. [surprised] AKIRA & SUOH C...Chairwoman!! CHAIRWOMAN [laughing] I am sorry, I am the one who have been observing you for the past few days. AKIRA Why were you.... CHAIRWOMAN I wanted "to be sure" about you two. SUOH To be sure? CHAIRWOMAN As both of you know, Nokoru-san is the youngest of the Imonoyama Foundation... p. 74 CHAIRWOMAN There is no assurance that there won't be another who will target Nokoru-san's life. AKIRA Again....Have Kaichou been in danger before.... CHAIRWOMAN Suoh-san, thank you very much three years ago.. SUOH No...it's... CHAIRWOMAN Both of you have magnificent mind, strength, luck, and also good looking. After observing both of you on the monitors around CLAMP Campus I have been reassured that both of you are amazing. p. 75 CHAIRWOMAN And please look after Nokoru-san from now on too... [emotionally moved] AKIRA ...Chairwoman... But I was surprised that the chairwoman was observing us. SUOH She must be worried about Kaichou. AKIRA I would like to protect Kaichou if he is in danger. I would be happy if I could always be with Kaichou and Takamura-sempai. p. 76 SUOH Yes AKIRA By the way what was the "three years ago" that the chairwoman was talking about? SUOH Oh....um...that.... NOKORU Suoh, Akira! Let's play "survival game" this time! AKIRA & SUOH % Can...can we really protect this "light-hearted" person... FILE 11: The escape to victory p. 77 [The members of the CLAMP Campus Elementary Student Government who are always together. But there is one "case" that the Student Government Treasurer doesn't know.] p. 81 AKIRA Nice work. SUOH Thank you Ijyuin. AKIRA It's so quiet. SUOH Yes...it is... p. 82 [Girls: Please wait!] [surprised] NOKORU It's...it's about time for the Student Government meeting. So please ladies be careful when you go home. [Girls: what! ] p. 83 GIRL A Damn! I thought that today we could get the name of the person Nokoru-sama is interested in! GIRL B Yes! We were this close! GIRL C Anyway, Nokoru-sama is kind to every single girl, but who does he like the most. GIRL D By the way! Suoh-san seems to be already going out with someone! GIRL E I've heard about it! The girls in Suoh-san's fan club seemed like they were holding a wake! p. 84 GIRL F But they don't mind. Suoh-san isn't service minded like Nokoru- sama, so his fans are used to enduring. GIRL G No one has quite his fan club. GIRL H Than that's the same with Akira-kun. It's been said that Akira- kun has someone that he 'likes.' GIRL I So then... GIRL H Yes, so among the member of our beloved "CLAMP Campus Elementary Student Government" the only one that haven't been taken is President, Nokoru Imonoyama-sama. [Taken] p. 85 NOKORU This...this time. I felt my life was in danger. AKIRA Here you go Kaichou. NOKORU Thank you. SUOH What, what happened, those female students.. NOKORU [thinking] I'm not sure, but it seems that one of the reasons is the fact that Suoh has made a cute girlfriend. AKIRA Takamura-sempai! Are you all right!? p. 86 NOKORU And the other. Seems to be related to the fact that Akira has "someone" NOKORU [having fun] % I really don't get tired of it... SUOH You are just in time. We have to make the budget for this semester. [Nokoru: Damn..] NOKORU Akira, this tea is really good. Oh, why don't I go buy some good bread at the campus bakery "Deukalyon"! p. 87 NOKORU [laughing] Why don't the three of us have tea SUOH The deadline is three days from now. NOKORU We still have three days. SUOH It is unsure as to if I can catch you tomorrow. NOKORU I will come to school tomorrow too. SUOH I am not sure what will happen tomorrow. p. 88 NOKORU If I became serious, a budget can be done is two hours... SUOH There are this much paperwork that would get done if you became "serious"! NOKORU ...I understand [fan: defeated] [Akira: Takamura-sempai you are amazing...] NOKORU Today, I'll devote my life to doing these paperwork. p. 89 AKIRA Amazing that he is really making that piles of paper. SUOH He probably knows all of the contents of the documents that he has finished. AKIRA Kaichou is truly a magnificent person. NOKORU When he is serious, he is truly serious, but we don't encounter that too often. AKIRA What? Kaichou is always serious [Suoh: Are you serious?!] p. 90 [Nokoru: What?] NOKORU % What..? A photo? % This is from three years ago.... p. 91 % I was hated by Suoh back then... [Three years ago...] GIRL A Nokoru-sama! You were here! GIRL B I'm glad! I have been looking for you! p. 92 NOKORU [smiling] Is there something I can do. GIRLS Can we take a picture of you!> GIRL A I'm going to put it in my purse. [adoring] GIRL B I am going to frame it in put it in my room GIRL C & D me too! NOKORU I don't mind p. 93 GIRL A I'm so happy! I'll take care of it Nokoru-sama GIRL B Me too NOKORU [smiling] I am happy to be of use to women. GIRL C Is it really all right to be this wonderful and be in the third grade. I'm enthusiastic and scared of what he is going to be like in the future.... p. 94 GIRL A Amazing that he is already the President of Student Government at third grade. GIRL B Well, who else other than Nokoru-sama can be the President GIRL C By the way Nokoru-sama. You still haven't decided on the other members of the student government. NOKORU It is hard to pick people GIRL D It must be hard being the only one. NOKORU But the class presidents of the elementary school are all magnificent, so there is no problem doing the job of the Elementary Student Government. GIRL E But there aren't a lot of people who can stand along side of Nokoru-sama. p. 95 GIRL A It's Takamura-san! GIRL B [screaming] He is good looking today as usual! GIRL C He's reticent and unfriendly, but that's what's so great about him! He's so calm that it's hard to believe that he is in the second grade. GIRL D He transferred in this year, but he is an idol of our elementary school, second only to Nokoru-sama! p. 96 NOKORU Suoh Takamura-kun of second grade class Z. GIRL A Do you know him? NOKORU Wasn't he the winner of the archery in this year's "Oukasai" GIRLS He was so wonderful then... GIRL B I know! Let's have Takamura-san also in the photos! GIRL C That is wonderful! GIRL D A picture of Nokoru-sama and Takamura-san, I'll die from happiness! GIRL E Is it all right Nokoru-sama!? NOKORU I don't mind... p. 97 GIRL A Takamura-san! If it is all right, can we take a picture of you. SUOH ...No I... GIRL B We won't take much of your time GIRLS Please!! NOKORU [smiling] % Girls are always powerful. p. 98 NOKORU % What? Didn't he glare at me for a second? GIRL Can Nokoru-sama stand along side of Takamura-san? SUOH What!? NOKORU Sure. p. 99 GIRL Now I'm going to take it. Say cheese. [computer screen: Suoh Takamura CLAMP Campus Elementary School Second Grade Class Z Born March 31, Taurus. Blood type: A Transferred from the outside in second grade.] p. 100 NOKORU Hmmm...I don't remember being acquainted him, but I did feel hostility towards me. [computer screen: Grades, top of the class second grade. Winner of the National Judo Championship. Winner of the Archery Contest. Third class Archery. Third class Aikidou Third class Karate.] ? Third class? Elementary school students can receive classes....Must be the "special" of CLAMP Campus. We have a parade of geniuses and talents.

SUOH It is not something that bothers me...he is always surrounded by women...he is kind... MOTHER Well it is good that he is kind to women. SUOH He is truly equal in his kindness. MOTHER Is it not good to be equal in his relations? SUOH He is "equal" to all of the "female students."

SUOH Yes p. 105 MOTHER [smiling] ...He is quite a character SUOH Well I have not spoken to him directly but....I just feel as though I would not get along... MOTHER Well, well it is strange that Suoh-san who does not show any interest anyone to "dislike." Though whatever your impression, Suoh-san is "interested" in this person. SUOH "Interested"...? MOTHER What is the name of this person? p. 106 SUOH It is...Nokoru...Imonoyama-sempai. p. 107 MOTHER [laughter] Amazing as usual.

NOKORU No, he's a year lower. WOMAN It is rare that you are out with someone. You never let anyone close to you. You are the youngest son of Japan's proudest foundation "Imonoyama." You get targeted a lot. p. 135 WOMAN It said in the file about you that is why it's your policy not to make "friends." Is he special? NOKORU ...No. "It was a coincident" that we were together! [Woman: is that so..?] p. 136 SUOH % ....This place is within the city limits... It's still sun % down. The sun is over here so... west... p. 137 SUOH Where is sempai? MAN What are you talking about!? p. 138 SUOH Imonoyama-sempai. You have brought him here with me. p. 139 SUOH Where is sempai? MAN I don't know! SUOH Where is sempai? MAN I...I don't... p. 140 SUOH I will let it him this time. MAN I'll tell you! I'll tell you so calm down!! The youngest of the Imonoyama Foundation is on the top floor! p. 141 NOKORU What? What did you say? WOMAN I want you. NOKORU I am not a product, so I am at a loss when you say you want me. I am not on sale right now too. [50 % off. Half off. Bargain] WOMAN [smiling] You are good at jokes. NOKORU I can't do much if you want "me" as the youngest son of the "Imonoyama Foundation." p. 142 NOKORU I am the youngest so I do not know much about the fortunes of the Imonoyama Family. WOMAN Stop joking. The Electrical Engineering Department of the Imonoyama Foundation is all under your control. WOMAN The fortunes of the Imonoyama is also attractive, but what I want is "you." p. 143 WOMAN I want your intelligence. I want your "intelligence" that NASA hasn't still given up. If I have you, I am promised of a success in electrical engineering. In today's world, those who control science controls the world. NOKORU I am happy to be valued by a beautiful woman, but there is nothing to my merit in that proposal. p. 144 NOKORU There is nothing that I would gain from being yours. I am not dissatisfied with life, so I am happy as it is now. WOMAN That is true. You are the son of the world famous "Imonoyama Foundation." WOMAN Then let's make a deal. NOKORU A deal? With what? I just told you that I do not want anything in particular right now.... p. 145 NOKORU And if you want my "intelligence" there is no chance that you will harm me, so my "life" cannot be something to deal with. WOMAN Truly you are smart. I can't believe that you are only in the third grade. If you yourself can't be something I can't deal with, then what about that boy? p. 146 WOMAN If you say "YES" I'll make sure that the boy gets home safely. But if you are "NO'... NOKORU He has nothing to do with this. WOMAN Yes he does, you are a kind person, so you cannot stand someone getting hurt. So you do not make friends nor do you let anyone come near me. It is rare that you are with someone even if it is a coincidence. p. 147 WOMAN I will use everything that I can. I was ordered by an international crime group to take me back with you, if I don't I'll get punished. Please say "YES." NOKORU You are an official, I doubt that you will get punished. WOMAN How can you tell? [Nokoru: that's because] NOKORU Because you are used to making orders. WOMAN You are really a smart boy. p. 148 WOMAN That boy was also a student of "CLAMP Campus" he must be superior also. But though how much of a superior student he may be, it is impossible for him to get out from here. NOKORU You didn't do something to Takamura. WOMAN I haven't done anything "yet." I just imprisoned him and kept a watch on him. I'm sure he's crying right now in the basement. P. 149 WOMAN So say "YES." NOKORU ...I understand SUOH Sempai!! Are you all right!? NOKORU Ta, Takamura!? p. 150 NOKORU You...How... WOMAN How...how did you get out from the basement.... SUOH Are you hurt sempai!! NOKORU There is nothing wrong with me...but how did you get here... That lady just told me that she had you imprisoned in the basement. SUOH [breathing heavily] I defeated the watchman. NOKORU Defeated...? SUOH Let's go NOKORU They are professionals, even though you are third class judo... p. 151 SUOH I was taken off guard then. NOKORU Then? SUOH Let's go! NOKORU Wait! You were just involved in it, these people want something from me. So I'll just tell them the situation... SUOH You were kidnapped, they won't listen to the situation!! NOKORU Wait!! p. 152 NOKORU I don't want to get you hurt. SUOH Sempai... WOMAN Someone!! Somebody come here! p. 153 p. 154 SUOH Sempai...? NOKORU Silence! SUOH % What is he doing? NOKORU [smiles] I'll try to find it very fast so can you keep those black clothed guys away for a while. SUOH Yes p. 155 WOMAN Imonoyama-san's friend have intruded. I still haven't heard his answer. Have him wait in another room! p. 156 WOMAN Wh..what... Is that judo? Or is it Karate? p. 157 [smiles] SUOH Sempai! NOKORU I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I've finally found it. SUOH What? WOMAN Your friend is rather strong. I have disregarded him thinking that he was a child. But this time the people coming to this room are combat professionals. p. 158 WOMAN And can you go against 30 of them at once. Give up Imonoyama-san. NOKORU I am bad at giving up, it's probably because of my family's blood, and this time I have an "ally." p. 159 SUOH % What... NOKORU [whispering] Takamura, are you all right in the dark? SUOH Yes...I am... NOKORU Good then let's go. WOMAN Where do you think you are going? The only exit to this room is here. How do you think you are going to get away. NOKORU Like this. p. 160 WOMAN How did he know about this exit!? WOMAN Go after them! Open this exit right now! MAN But mistress, you told us to make sure that it doesn't open once it opens so that no once can come after... [WOMAN: Just go after them!!] p. 161 SUOH How did you know that there was an exit there? NOKORU The "sound." SUOH Sound!? NOKORU I heard a sound of a motor. There are usually alternate exits in that kind of a house, so if there are sounds of a motor coming from the floor, there has to be something. SUOH % To make a clear judgement at a place where he was kidnapped % surrounded by that many people...He is... p. 162 NOKORU It's the exit! It lead to the top floor. What kind of an escape root is this? The sun seems to come in fine, but it's not a place to hang up laundry. SUOH I guess we have to go back. NOKORU No it's fine. SUOH What? p. 163 SUOH % ... He jokes when I thought that he was serious, and when I % think he is cunning he stalls. What in the world is this person % thinking WOMAN I won't let you go!! I finally captured you! I'm not going to let you go! NOKORU [smiles] About that offer, I will decline it. WOMAN You said that you "understood"!? NOKORU I said that I "understood" but I didn't reply "YES." p. 164 WOMAN Well then that friend is a "hostage" p. 165 SUOH Sempai!! Sempai!! NOKORU I shouldn't have meddled with you. SUOH Sempai..!! NOKORU I didn't mean to get you in danger. I'm sorry. p. 166 SUOH Sempai!! WOMAN Why do you get in front! WOMAN You are kind. You don't want anyone hurt, you don't want anyone around you to get involved in. p. 167 WOMAN It was true that you don't make friends. SUOH Sempai... NOKORU I'm just thoughtless. p. 168 NOKORU Seems like it finally arrived. SUOH What? WOMAN What is that sound? p. 169 WOMAN What is that!? NOKORU [laughing] I just called it. It looks like a joke, but two people can ride it. [you've got to be kidding] NOKORU Takamura? SUOH Please hang on! WOMAN Wait! p. 170 SUOH Please stay that way until the police comes. [I'm sorry, I will never do it again.] p. 171 NOKORU ...Takamura-kun...I'm sorry. I won't get close to you again. SUOH No. I will be by your side. NOKORU ...what? p. 172 SUOH You seem to be the "someone I will meet one day".... so I will always... p. 173 SUOH Protect you. p. 174 NOKORU % It's already been three years...but Suoh was the descendent of a % famous "Ninja" family. Takamura is a clan that is at the top of % military arts in Japan. p. 175 NOKORU % Also famous for its superior body guards...and those of the % Takamura clan chooses the ones that they protect since there are % celebrities and politicians who want someone from the Takamura % clan. Suoh is the heir of that family... SUOH Is something wrong? NOKORU No p. 176 NOKORU I was just thinking about three years ago. AKIRA Three years ago. That's before I transferred. NOKORU I was hated by Suoh back then. [what!] p. 177 AKIRA Why, Takamura-sempai!! Why did you hate Kaichou!? AKIRA Sempai! p. 178 NOKORU A woman's scream! Let's go! Suoh! Akira! It's the time for "CLAMP Campus Detective Team"! p. 179 SUOH What about Student Government work. NOKORU Compared to a woman in distress, it's nothing! p. 180 NOKORU Let's go Suoh! Today the "CLAMP Campus Detective Team" will work for only women! [Akira: Splendid Kaichou!!] FILE 12: That's entertainment p. 183 [silence] AKIRA [whispering] It's rare that Kaichou is doing his work with such effort. SUOH [whispering] ...Yes...If it's always like this the Student Government work gets done... AKIRA Oh it's almost 3:00 pm. I'll go make some tea. SUOH % It's strange. There is something wrong... p. 184 AKIRA Suoh-sempai, let's have some tea. SUOH Th, thank you. AKIRA Kaichou! Today is your favorite Angel Food Cake. I also have some whipped cream! AKIRA ...Kaichou? AKIRA % What!? Aaaaah!!! SUOH What is it!? Ijyuin!! p. 185 AKIRA [crying] Ka, Kaichou's head fell!! SUOH Huh!? AKIRA Kaichou! Kaichou!! SUOH ...it's a robot... AKIRA What? p. 186 SUOH That person... AKIRA I'm glad! Kaichou's head didn't fall off! But when did they switch places. SUOH [sighing] ...if he has the effort to make something like this, documents shouldn't be that hard. AKIRA Where did Kaichou go. But when did he leave. SUOH There are no evidence that Kaichou has left this Student Government Room after he entered. p. 187 AKIRA Amazing Kaichou! Not knowing when he left the room, it's a perfect crime! SUOH [not happy] It's not the time to be impressed. But I need him to go through these documents today or we won't be ready for the budget meeting for the various clubs tomorrow. AKIRA Where are you going Takamura-sempai? SUOH I'm going to go look for Kaichou. AKIRA The object of "CLAMP Campus Detective Team" this time is to look for Kaichou! I'm getting excited. SUOH Ijyuin, it's not a game. AKIRA What? p. 188 AKIRA But Kaichou says that you shouldn't always forget to be playful.... SUOH He is too playful [Cafe] AKIRA There is no one here. SUOH Kaichou likes the Siebust of this cafe, and it is the time for tea so I thought that maybe he would be taking a break right now. AKIRA Oh, then maybe he is there! [Look for Kaichou!!] p. 189 AKIRA He's not here. OBACHAN Welcome [Dukalyon: Hurry up Obachan] AKIRA Kaichou likes the red bean paste bread. SUOH No, Kaichou had sandwiches for breakfast, and lunch he had the croissant that was at the "CLAMP Campus Student Government Meeting." He wouldn't be having bread as a snack. p. 190 AKIRA Then maybe it is Japanese treats. If it is Japanese treats, the imo-youkan of "Funaya" and the sakura-mochi of "Mitsuki"...oh and the zenzai at "Kagikuni" SUOH Let's go! Ijyuin! SUOH Where there is a woman screaming, there is Kaichou! AKIRA That true. p. 191 SUOH You are... AKIRA Oh the peacock, Pochi'...

SUOH Excuse us! AKIRA What happened!? MIDORIKO [surprised] No...I was just surprised because there was a frog. AKIRA I'm sorry but have you seen Kaichou? MIDORIKO Imonoyama-san...no... SUOH [breathing heavily] What happened? PRESIDENT Oh the two of you together... p. 194 SUOH I heard a scream.... PRESIDENT No, the cats tumble so well so...look AKIRA They are cute. SUOH Have you met Kaichou? PRESIDENT No, I'm sure I'll meet him tomorrow at the meeting. But today.... SUOH What is it today!? AKIRA There are lots of scream today! SUOH I just heard a voice! GIRL I...I'm sorry...I was just having a voice lesson... p. 195 AKIRA Have you seen Kaichou today. [tired] SUOH What is it!? This CLAMP Campus!? AKIRA Is today some special day? What's wrong!?

[Yukiko: Coach!] AKIRA Kaichou wasn't around, where have he gone. SUOH Maybe...he's no longer with in the campus.... p. 196 AKIRA But it is amazing. He is no where to be seen though we looked for him this much. When did he get out of the Student Government Room. AKIRA Takamura-sempai...? SUOH % Just as I thought... p. 197 AKIRA [surprised] Ka, Kaichou!! SUOH [sighing] No wonder he is now where to be seen... AKIRA So he was in the Student Government all this time. SUOH Really this person...! [Angel smile] AKIRA He's sleeping so happily. Huh? Aren't you going to wake him up? p. 198 SUOH Just one more hour. But I won't let him go today. CLAMP Campus Detective Team Pirated Version by Mick Nekoi p. 200 OHKAWA The third volume of "CLAMP Campus Detective Team"...time goes by really fast...sitting calmly here drinking tea I can here the background music of "PUYO PUYO (SEGA version)" and inside my head is just filled with Puyo Puyo these days. MOKONA Hello everyone, it is CLAMP! [NEKOI: Ouch!] IGARASHI This time we would like to introduce the games that are popular among us. p. 201 OHKAWA First this! It has been out for a while but it is called "Otogirisou (SFC version)" NEKOI This is pretty scary. It's about a woman and a man who get lost at night in the mountains and encounter many scary things in a house. [Nekoi: you scared me] MOKONA It's multi-scenario, so the story changes every time you play, so it's fun to play over and over again. IGARASHI Everyone play it at least once, ignoring the fact that Mokona and Nekoi are playing it. MOKONA Also the "Puyo Puyo" that Ohkawa was saying in the opening. I have been playing it since the arcades but the Sega version came out so I bought it. [this is Puyo] IGARASHI You connect the two Puyo Puyo and if you connect 4 of the same color it disappears. The loser is the one that gets it's screen filled with them. [Igarashi: Satsuki is pretty good at this.] OHKAWA This is rather insightful. The opponent characters that come out is rather cute too. The other is this, "Sonic the Hedge Hog CD." The tempo is really fast and the pictures are beautiful. The story is cool too. p. 202 [The music of "Sonic the Hedge Hog" is amazing too.] MOKONA CLAMP always listen to music on the Mega CD. OHKAWA Oh this is sudden, but talking about music. "CLAMP Campus Kindergarten Official Album" will be on sale from Toushiba EMI on December 15th. [what!] OHKAWA The kindergarten kids from CLAMP Campus will sing a good-night song or exercise song. It is a pretty cute album so please listen to it. MOKONA This CD can be mail ordered from Kadokawa. For mail orders there is the "CLAMP Campus Kindergarten Art Book" that comes with it. For more info please look at p. 205. There is also another announcement. [As all of you know, CLAMP publishes a information magazine title "CLAMP Research Facility," but as of April of 1994, we have ended this.] p. 203 OHKAWA As it has been on the news, the postage of the post office is going to be changed officially. If there is a price increase, the "CLAMP Campus Research Facility" that is on tight budget must also be increased. If there is a price increase, there is more burden to the people who have been buying CLAMP's books, CDs, and videos. IGARASHI So "CLAMP Research Facility" will be published until the April of '94, however it will be shut down after that. (* the dead line for the April of '94 has already passed) MOKONA But the telephone service "CLAMP Research Facility SEcretary Room" will still continue. This "CLAMP Research Facility Secretary Room" will try to get all of the information about CLAMP and try to do different things. [CLAMP Research Facility, Secretary Room: New Information, 1st and 15th of every month (twice a month) The phone number: 03- 3496-8311. Please make sure that the number is right] IGARASHI This is a normal line, so it can be heard everywhere in Japan. MOKONA Because it is a phone, you'll be able to hear CLAMP's information very fast. OHKAWA There are present quizzes only for this "CLAMP Research Facility, Secretary Room" so please listen to it. IGARASHI We look forward to meeting you again. BACK COVER AKIRA I'm not done yet, but I have to go home and make dinner for the mothers... I'm sorry I'll finish it when I come back tomorrow. SUOH Ijyuin seems to have gone home already. NOKORU He seems to be always busy. [note: I'll clean this up tomorrow. I'm sorry -Akira] NOKORU For today, let's clean this up. [Suoh: yes.] [note: Good job. I have cleaned it up. From the dwarf] AKIRA [crying] A dwarf cleaned it up for me...I wonder what kind of a dwarf. I want to give my tanks. [Nokoru: Are you serious Akira?] [Suoh: seems like it.]
