{Title} Story 4: Disappeared Gyopi chan

{Wapiko} Chi-chan! Hi!!
                Oh. She isn't here yet.
                Do you want some?
{Gyopi} Yay! Lucky me!!
{Wapiko} You'll eat anything huh?

(Cow eats the whole thing)

{Wapiko} Its OK. I have another one in my locker, so I'll bring it for you.
{Chitose} Wa-pi-ko-
W: Oh. Chi-chan hi!
{Chitose} Forget about the hi!  Look. It seems like you've forgotten, so I'll tell you again. Gyopi chan isn't the same as the other goldfish around. There's only one in the world, and it is veeeeeeery valuable!!! What are you going to do if you kill by giving something weird!?
{Wapiko} OK. That makes sense.
{Chitose} Here, lets go now.
{Wapiko} Gyopi chan bye bye!
{Gyopi} Bye bye..

{Chitose} 8AM.... When I look back, that was the last time I saw Gyopi chan.

(Tanakayama sneaks in)

{Shuu} Huh? The doors open. She left the window open too. 
             Its raining hard now.

{Wapiko} 'naka manzoku' ?
{Chitose} Gyopi chan is delicate, so its food has to be 'naka Manzoku'.
                I'm back, Gyopi chan.

(Chitose screams)

{Police} So the few hundred million yen goldfish was stolen by someone.
{Chitose} Yes. Please catch the robber.
{Police} Huh? Ko-chan the principal! (Ko-chan is probably from the Japanese word Kochou which means principal)
{Principal} Kei-chan the police!!(Likewise Kei-chan is probably from the Japanese word 'keikan' which means police man)
{Kouchou and Police} I wanted to meet you!!!

{Narrator} The two were childhood playmates who haven't seen each other for a long time.

{Police} So when was the last time you saw the goldfish?
{Chitose} It was just when the bell was ringing at the beginning of school. Wapiko and I was...
{Wapiko} The cow was there too.
{Chitose} And then we left this room, and by the time we came back here to feed it....  If I had came back earlier...
{Shuu} Did you close the door when you left the room?
{Chitose} yes, of course. Why?
{Shuu} I walked by here after the first period. Then the door was open, and the window was opened too. I thought it wasn't good if the rain came in, so I closed it.
{All}  How intelligent!
{Police} So the goldfish was in here at that time?
{Shuu} Um, I only looked at the window, so I don't know if the goldfish was there or not.
{Police} So it seems like during the first period, someone snuck in.

(Cat comes in)

{Police} Agh! Or maybe a cat ate it.
{Chitose} No... it was my fathers valuable, valuable, memento....
{Aoi} Hm? Someone dropped their pen.
{Shuu} Huh?
{Principal} Its not mine.
{Chitose} Its the criminal's!!!
{Aoi} OK! Wapiko!!!
{Wapiko} Ya?
{Aoi} Give me your hand!!
{Wapiko} Meaw!!
{Chitose} Hey! Don't fool around at the time like this!!
{Aoi} Shut up! This is the smell. You got it!?
{Wapiko} Ya!!
{Aoi} Ok!! Go!!
{Wapiko} Meeaw!!
{Aoi} Follow her!!
{Chitose} Wait!!

{Wapiko} This way!!
                Here!!
{Aoi} Good job Wapiko!
{Chitose} Gyopi-chan...

{Tanakayama} Why do I have to spy on a day like this...
{Chitose} Tanakayama!?
{Tanakayama} Wow!!! Darn!!!
{Chitose} Give me my Gyopi-chan back!?
{Tanakayama} What are you talking about!?
{Chitose} Don't pretend that you don't know! Then what are you doing here!?
{Tanakayama} I just came here because of Miss Yurika's orders...
{Chitose} What about Yurika's orders.
{Tanakayama} Heh. Tanakayama, a man, will.... tell you about it. I'm here to complete the spying mission that failed last time.
{Chitose} We won't be fooled by that!! Police! Capture him! Make him tell where Gyopi chan is even if you have to torture him!
{Police} Uh.. Yes.
{Tanakayama} Its a misunderstanding!! Its not me!! Its not me!!!

{Chitose} Humph. Poor Gyopi-chan. A little while more. A little while more, I'll rescue you.

{Wapiko} Chi-chan Chi-chan!

{Chitose} Be quiet! Don't you understand that I'm in deep sorrow!?
{Wapiko} But look...
  
(Gyopi chan is flying)

{Wapiko} Wow! Gyopi-chan! That's incredible!
{Gyopi} Thanks.

{Tanakayama} I'm innocent---!!!
