Sasazuka asks to meet Yako and me, so we go meet up with him. We lean against the railings. "I'm sorry for suddenly calling you over to not down the notes regarding this case."

"No problem/It's fine." Yako and I agree.

Yako turns her head to look at him. "I have a question... Sasazuka-san, do you have a dream?"

"Dream?" Sasazuka queries.

"For some reason, I had this thought..." Yako trails off.

Sasazuka looks away. "Maybe my dream is to continue working like this for a long time."

"For a long time?" I question.

"Yea, something like that," Sasazuka admits.

The door opens. "Sasazuka-san..." a female calls out.

Yako looks at the door. "Shouko-san..."

Shouko walks towards her. "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."

"It's okay," Sasazuka states.

"Shouko-san, please don't feel down." Yako encourages.

A small smile appears on Shouko's face as she places her right hand on her head. "I seem to have lost my confidence to work as a police officer. I was always by Tsukita-san. Yet, I didn't even realise anything. I started thinking, 'What have I been doing up until now?'"

"Please don't give up!" Yako exclaims. "You told me that you want to become the best cop. Even though I'm still not sure of my own dreams...But you found such a beautiful dream! So, don't throw it away!"

"Yako-san..." Shouko trails off.

"Tsukita-san's dream might have been twisted...But I think your dream is very righteous..." I comment softly. "As long as you don't ever forget the reason you wanted to become a cop in the first place, you will be fine."

Tears fill Shouko's eyes as a smile appears on her face. "Yako-san, Yuuki-san, thank you."

Sasazuka walks towards the door, stopping briefly to pat Shouko's shoulder. "Even though a lot has happened, let's both keep working hard towards our own goals, okay?"

She wipes the corner of her left eye. "Yes."

Yako and I share a smile before looking towards the setting sun.

~~~Present~~~

I put on my silver coat and pouch bag over my silver chalice and black princess dress as I leave my cafe/restaurant and head to the office. I had to work longer than expected when my employee called in sick.

When I get to the office, Yako and Godai are watching the TV, listening to Aya's show where she is singing. Walking past the couch, I see Godai's eyes watering as his body shakes. As the tears appear, he covers his eyes with his right hand, hiding them completely from view.

"What are you crying over?" Neuro queries from behind his desk.

"I'm not crying!" Godai denies.

"You're joking, right? Godai-san is crying?" Yako questions, surprised.
