Did someone submit a written application to join the defense force? That is so cute! I kind of want to frame this.

So how're we doing, guys? Anything to report?

Excuse me-- [ ahem ] I don't recall purchasing a bluetooth, but it seems this is marginally different, isn't it?

This certainly is a surprise, though. I'd have hoped for a hospital, but I suppose a prison wouldn't be that much different. I suppose I'll just have to hope that this is broadcasting, hmm?

[ and a low chuckle ]

What odd circumstances I seem to have found myself in, though. I don't suppose I can complain, but as I understood it, the justice system wasn't nearly so corrupt in Japan. Imprisonment without a trial? Jumping the gun, don't you think?

[ it's quiet for a moment then ]

I don't suppose there's a pay phone around here, is there? I'd like to make a call, but seem to have lost my mobile.

And if not that, then at least a vending machine where I can purchase some cigarettes. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
