Shinjiro: "You... ....." [ FeMC shows Shinjiro a pocket watch. ] "......! That's...! ...Hey... Come with me, okay?" [ FeMC agrees. ] "Oh... Thanks."

[ At the Naganaki Shrine. ]

Shinjiro: "Where did you find this?"

FeMC: [ She tells him that it had been taken to the police station and that she claimed it. ]

Shinjiro: "I see..." [ Shinjiro toys with the pocketwatch... ] "I thought I'd be fine if I never saw this again... But I never imagined that you of all people would bring it to me. This isn't really to pay you back, but I want you to have this. I was hesitating about if I should give it to you or not." [ Shinjiro gives FeMC a leather watch. ] "I thought it'd look good on you..."

FeMC: "Why a watch, though?"

Shinjiro: "Because it... it keeps track of time. This is all I could think of." [ Shinjiro smiles wryly. He looks down at his feet for a long time. ] "...Look after Aki. ...You know he's an idiot. You remember the story about the first fight we ever had? It was because... I stole a doll from a toy store. Aki's sister couldn't make any friends. I stole it because I thought it'd make her happy. Aki found out about it, and he beat the crap outta me... and he was crying the whole time. Afterwards, we both went back to the store to return it... and to apologize for what I did. The toy store's owner smacked us both. ...He hasn't changed at all from back then. He's stupid, honest, proud, kind... and a crybaby. ...That's why someone needs to be by his side."

FeMC: "We'll be by his side."

Shinjiro: "Yeah... I'll be counting on all of you." [ Shinjiro seems relieved. ] "I ain't worried at all, because I know you're with him. I'm leaving the rest to you. The wind's starting to pick up... I kinda want to stay here a little longer if we can, but... aren't you cold? Hey, you're gonna catch something. C'mere..."

[ FeMC and Shinjiro talk about various things late into the night. ]
