Streetlight Office — Episode 1 (Stage: 10002)Location: Streetlight OfficeLulu(Streetlight Fixer)Ahh~ Why is our Office so unpopular with clients.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu1"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Our Office is officially designated by the Zwei Association as an affiliate, too.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu2"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)And the crime rate of territories secured by the Streetlight Office remains at a remarkable 0% as long as the contract is in effect!!!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu3"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)We only cover two blocks of space at most, though.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars1"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)And we’ll eventually get work if we wait.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars2"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Yeah, sure, you can keep waiting for the rest of your life. I’m seriously considering moving to another Office.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu4"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Never thought you’d have what it takes to work for a bigger Office.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars3"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Unlike you, I have several business connections I made from experience, do you understand?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu5"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Your mother must be too busy being a legendary Fixer or whatever, while I have friends who can help me right away.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu6"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Yeah, some great Fixer you are~Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars4"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Yeah yeah. Why thanks, I know I’m great~Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu7"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Hey!!! You ate the cake in the fridge, didn’t you!!!!!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu8"San(Streetlight Operator)Guys, I have work for you.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san1"San(Streetlight Operator)…Fighting again, are you…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san2"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)This S.O.B ate the cake without even asking me!!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu9"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)The expiration date was yesterday, so I took care of it, that’s all.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars5"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Auuuuuuuuugh!!!!! It’s MY cake, and even if it’s expired, I’ll take care of it on MY own!!!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu10"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Anyway, boss, how about that work?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars6"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Don’t change the topic!!!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu11"San(Streetlight Operator)I’ll get you another cake, so calm down for a moment, alright?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san3"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)But… That was a limited edition cake…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu12"San(Streetlight Operator)I’m still rather skeptical about it, but I got this one from a friend of mine at the Association.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san4"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)You mean that Associate Fixer working directly under the Zwei?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu13"San(Streetlight Operator)Yes, it’s her. The Hana Association has yet to consider this request as a subject that needs to be addressed officially.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san5"San(Streetlight Operator)Have you heard of ‘The Library’?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san6"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Some stories of it. We overheard Rats talking about it.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars7"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Said the books in that place have tremendous value or whatever.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu14"San(Streetlight Operator)I see. I retrieved an invitation to that library from my friend I just mentioned. Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san7"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)But we might not get much payment from this request if it’s off the record.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars8"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)And it won’t count towards our official career, either.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu15"San(Streetlight Operator)Such as it is… The Association is trying to remain cautious about it.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san8"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Are we really going to walk right into a place we know nothing about? Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu16"San(Streetlight Operator)She did promise to see to it that we’re rewarded with pay comparable to an Urban Legend-class request if everything goes down well…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san9"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)……Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars9"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)……Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu17"San(Streetlight Operator)Surely it was a bad idea after all, don’t you think…?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san10"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Let’s do this!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars10"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Guess we have no choice. It’s still too uncertain, but we need that money. We haven’t been too busy lately.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu18"San(Streetlight Operator)Thanks, everyone! We’ll get through like we always have.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san11"Location: Inside the LibraryAngela(Library Director)Zwei? Hana?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela1"Roland(Servant)They’re talking about associations of Fixers. It takes more than just setting up an Office to jump into the Fixer business.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland1"Roland(Servant)There are a total of twelve Fixer Associations across the City, each in charge of different types of work.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland2"Roland(Servant)Cases and requests are all sorted according to the type and sent to one of these associations.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland3"Angela(Library Director)Associations manage Offices and delegate work to them, I see.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela2"Roland(Servant)That’s right. Sometimes, the Association might send documents to multiple Offices at once, or directly have Associate Fixers take care of the work.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland4"Roland(Servant)And among them, the Hana Association is in overall control of all Fixers. They grade Fixers and authorize Offices and stuff.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland5"Angela(Library Director)Do Offices have grades as well?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela3"Roland(Servant)Essentially. The requests sent out by the Associations are graded, too.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland6"Angela(Library Director)They really love to grade things, don’t they.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela4"Roland(Servant)It’s easier to know that way.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland7"Angela(Library Director)Know what?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela5"Roland(Servant)How valuable I am as a person…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland8"Roland(Servant)Think about it, who in the City could claim “This is my worth!” with confidence? Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland9"Roland(Servant)Everyone’s busy minding their own business, no one is going to lounge around having deep conversations about each other’s value.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland10"Roland(Servant)Knowing each other’s grades and affiliations, on the other hand, can save a ton of words. You can tell if you’re above or below the person you’re talking to right away.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland11"Angela(Library Director)Sounds like people stopped trying to learn or think about it at some point.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela6"Roland(Servant)Bet you won’t say the same once you experience the city life for a bit.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland12"Roland(Servant)You have to interact with so many people out there, whether you want to or not.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland13"Roland(Servant)People have been looking for ways to adapt to the City, and this is just one of them.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_roland14"Location: Library EntranceLulu(Streetlight Fixer)Guess we really are desperate. To think that we’d take on a job like this…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu19"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Stop complaining, we should be glad to have work at all.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars11"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)I know! Do you really have to point out the obvious?!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu20"San(Streetlight Operator)Now now, cool it down, guys.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san12"San(Streetlight Operator)Can’t tell if you’re best friends or worst enemies.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san13"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Excuse me! Please don’t associate me with this goof!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu21"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)I certainly don’t want that, either.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars12"San(Streetlight Operator)Alright, alright. Let’s have a feast at Juli’s restaurant once this is over. The tab’s on me.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san14"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Yeah!Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu22"Angela(Library Director)Greetings, dear guests. You seem to be well acquainted with each other.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela7"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Who are you?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars13"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Prepare yourselves.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu23"Angela(Library Director)There is no need to be so wary. Your ordeal has not started yet.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela8"Angela(Library Director)I am Angela, the director and librarian of my role’s namesake.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela9"San(Streetlight Operator)Nice to meet you. I’m San from the Streetlight Office.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san15"San(Streetlight Operator)We were brought here by the invitation. There’s something I’d like to ask about it.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san16"Angela(Library Director)What is it?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela10"San(Streetlight Operator)I actually retrieved this invitation from another person, not directly from you. Are we still eligible?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san17"Angela(Library Director)Yes, indeed. The invitation eventually reached you, dear guest, and you signed your name with your own will. Everything has worked as intended.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela11"San(Streetlight Operator)I see.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san18"Angela(Library Director)May you find your book in this place.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_angela12"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Huh, she was a nicer person than I thought.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars14"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Did that look like a human to you?Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu24"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)I mean, she did have the shape of a person, but something about her didn’t feel right…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu25"Lulu(Streetlight Fixer)Though I can’t exactly put it to words…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_lulu26"San(Streetlight Operator)She… probably is a machine.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san19"Mars(Streetlight Fixer)Didn’t expect to see a machine that’s so similar to a human being…Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_mars15"San(Streetlight Operator)Let’s focus on our work.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san20"San(Streetlight Operator)Once again, you must back off as soon as you feel that you’re in danger.Audio: "ch2_Streetlight_ep1_san21"
