## Summary

Sylvia briefs Fiona on a man named Sergei Ostosky, an executive on the economics committee who is unlawfully restricting strawberry exports to Westalis, causing a national strawberry shortage. As a result of the shortage, there were no strawberries on Foreign Minister Brantz's birthday cake, and he went into a rage. Sylvia assigns Fiona a mission to deal with the problem before it causes a diplomatic crisis.

Fiona approaches Loid while he is working at Berlint General Hospital to ask for someone who can forge a state seal for a fake export license. Loid decides to direct Fiona to one of his assets that has the connections to do so. As he leaves to talk with some hospital staff, Fiona stares at him from behind with a lovesick expression in her eyes and resolves to successfully complete the mission for his sake.

In an alleyway, Fiona heads down a flight of stairs to the location of Twilight's intel guy. As she approaches the door, she sees a button and a note stating to press the button for "service." Suspicious, she uses a pen to press the button, and it is revealed to be an electrified trap. She scoffs at the childish trap and enters before a dusty chalkboard eraser falls from above.

As Fiona goes through, she continues to encounter several amateur-level traps and riddles. Finally, she comes to a door at the end where she is greeted by a man with a black bag over his head aiming his gun at her. She greets the man with Twilight's code phrase, and he removes his bag revealing him to be Franky Franklin. Franky tries to flirt with her jokingly, and she almost leaves out of exasperation.

Fiona names her request for a forged official seal, and Franky tries to get more details from her, saying he will get it from a friend of his. Fiona is unwilling to trust him and tries to get him to introduce his friend to her directly, threatening to have him incarcerated. She eventually acquiesces when he reminds her that she will not be able to meet with the counterfeiter without him and he contacts his friend via the radio as a secret caller.

Fiona and Franky are waiting outside a bar where they arranged to meet with the counterfeiter. Fiona attempts to enter, but Franky stops her and convinces her to wear a disguise before entering. They change into disguises suitable for a club, pretending to be a couple. Franky is excited to be on a "date" with Fiona, who is wholly unenthused about the situation.

As they enter, they are stopped by the bouncer until Franky reveals his identity. At the club, Franky greets his many friends, showing off his "girlfriend." Eventually, Fiona reaches her limit and threatens to kill him unless he stops. Franky apologizes before noticing the presence of his counterfeiter friend, the Quill, downstairs, and they approach him. Franky tries to greet him, but Fiona interrupts and gets straight to the point with her offer. She tosses a paper with her deal at him, but he throws it away upon seeing it and the deadline, walking away.

Fiona and Franky continue to follow him outside. Fiona points out two members of the SSS tailing them. The counterfeiter is shocked and accuses Franky of being careless. Fiona suggests it was his new clients that made a mistake. The counterfeiter tries to make a run for it but is too late to notice a man around the corner. Before he can get hit, Fiona pushes him down and kicks the man in the face, incapacitating him.

Fiona grabs him as they run and suggests he take her offer as repayment for saving him from the SSS. As they pass a corner, Fiona expertly throws another man waiting behind the corner with a knife. The counterfeiter is speechless at her skill, and Franky reassures him that he can trust Fiona. Another man shoots at Fiona, and Franky throws himself at Fiona to get her out of the way while she throws a knife at the shooter.

Fiona tries to get them to another place to hide from the SSS, but Franky displays his knowledge of the area and suggests using a tunnel path instead. Fiona recognizes Franky's skills as an asset, while he says he could even hide from WISE if he wanted to. Fiona asks why he is on their side, but Franky says he is not on anyone's sides: he is simply dissatisfied by the current state of Ostania and would rather shake things up.

Later, Fiona meets with Franky at his tobacco stand. He hands her a copy of the newspaper, along with the forged papers she asked for. Franky asks if she was the one who called the SSS on them, but she feigns ignorance. Fiona asks Franky if he has connections to fine art forgers and safecrackers, suggesting she will return to him with another job. Franky looks briefly moved but refuses to work with her, stating that he will lose his friends with her methods.

## Trivia

* Franky's surname is revealed in this chapter, though Franky reveals that it is one of his aliases.
* When Franky meets Fiona, Franky is wearing a shirt that says "Chicken × Bear." The shirt itself is a reference to the cover of Volume 1, with the bear character sitting on the same chair that Loid sat on in the same pose.
* The name of the club, Tamaryba, is a play on the Japanese word *tamariba* (たまり場, ****tamariba****?), meaning "hangout" or "gathering place" in English.
