Jenny Sandra/Quotes

**(To Tauro Twisters)**
"You make me laugh. *—Chapter 230*
**(To Tauro Twisters)**
What the hell are you talking about? Jemi and I joined because we could kill.

Any method is allowed to accomplish our objective. Isn't it a simple, yet beautiful job?

Tauro, you also know about it, right? About Jemi's company?" *—Chapter 230*

Because of you, Jeni's uniform is dirty now. You are useless. It's dirty and it stinks...!" *—Chapter 230*
**(To Tauro Twisters)**
Ha? What are you saying? Are you going to blame Jemi for your mistakes?

You know it, right? If this mission fails, the second squadron will be dismantled. Don't you want Taura back? Is it really that hard for you to kill Mikazuki? Can't you do anything right?" *—Chapter 230*
**(To Tauro Twisters)**
"The communication between us and the central office is blocked now. Even if we break some of the rules, as long as we fulfill our objective, it won't be a problem. The central office wants good results. That's why Jemi is doing things she wouldn't do in other circumstances. Plus, if you ask Jemi, she can bring back Taura-senpai to the second squadron. There's a lot of money involved, after all." *—Chapter 230*
**(To Tauro Twisters)**
"First of all, Tauro, you were hired as Jemi's bodyguard, have you forgotten that you're still under service? Because you were also bought, it's just natural to listen to what your boss has to say, right? Rest assured, Jemi "bought" you and your sister.

Grab that one girl who was with 610, and use her as hostage." *—Chapter 230*
**(To Jemi Sandra)** *"Je...Jemi... Big sister.. BIG SISTER! BIG SISTER! HELP ME!! BIG SISTER, I DON'T WANT TO DIE! I DON'T WANT TO DIE! BIG SISTER. BIG SISTER HELP ME! BIG SISTER HELP ME!! BIG SISTER! BIG SISTER!! BIG SISTER!! BIG SISTER!! BIG SISTER!*
BIG.. SIS..TER... WHY..." *— Chapter 233 (her last words)*

## Synopsis

It is the day of New Years, so Nanba Prison always has a routine where they celebrate it. It begins with a morning assembly, then the New Years Tournament. In the tournament, one cell is chosen to represent a building. Cell 13 of Building 13 end up being picked, much to the dismay of Hajime and Seiitarou.

## Summary

The story begins with Mitsuru making the daily announcements. It is the beginning of the new year. He wishes everyone a happy new year, for everyone to be in good spirits, for all the inmates to reflect on their crimes and work on their education and for the officers to fulfil their duties and preserve Nanba's honour. Jyugo gets angry at the daily announcements for being too loud. Hajime tells cell 13 to get up to go to the morning assembly but they say no, that's its too cold. Hajime forces them to anyway.

Next, the morning assembly begins and the inmates follow the officers in charge of their building. The boy's find out the warden is a woman while she wishes everyone a good year, getting annoyed that Hajime didn't tell them. She announces the start of the New Year's tournament. The four are confused on what it is, so Kenshirou explains the participants for this year's tournament of each building. Hajime explains to them that the guards of the winning team get a cash bonus while the inmates get one thing they want as long as it is not a weapon or cash.

The four want to be chosen for the tournament, and Hajime tells them that it is unlikely that they will be chosen because it is the higher ups who decide who to choose, and that there is a lot of inmates in Building 13. However, Cell 13 ends up being picked for building 13. Hajime and Seitarou are frustrated, especially at how they expected anything different because it is Hajime's fate as a regular supporting character for this to happen.

Hajime Sugoroku/Quotes

**(To Jyugo)** *"You truly are empty. There was no point to your jail breaking from the start, no objective or ulterior motives. It wasn’t even for fun.You’ve never really wanted anything.You have no greed whatsoever. I’m saying, weren’t you simply happy to have an objective? That's why you escaped from prison over and over, to prolong that objective. People who don’t have greed just watch the time go by.People like that get stimulated once they find even the smallest opportunity or objective.You came this far for your own satisfaction, then you led yourself by hiding the truth one you realized the true nature of those shackles. You don’t even realize that this is because you continue to do things halfheartedly. It's gone way beyond the scope of mere self satisfaction. It's too late to act after the fact. Idiot, you came this far because you didn’t have the resolve to do that. I swear, even when you’re being sincere, you’re so immature, it's ridiculous. Nothing will change by running away. If you run, you’re free, I guess if you discard everything you’ll be at peace. You think it's okay to just run away from everything? Don’t be a spoiled brat. What's the point of simply running away?"*

## Summary

In the Nanba Prison headquarters, Momoko is sitting at her desk. Hajime knocks on the door to give her the files on the four inmates. Samon interrupts Hajime, berating him to apologize for how he treated Momoko and crashing him down to the floor, where he apologizes. As Samon insults him as a gorilla, Hajime gets annoyed and leaves him bloody and censored on the screen. After this, Hajime goes back to giving Momoko the files on the inmates. Momoko says that they aren't worth discussing besides the fact that they have a history of escaping jail. Samon looks at the files and does not believe that they are sitting around in their cell and not trying to escape due to their history. Momoko is also confused on why there are no issues while there is no mention on how and why they escaped as she reads the files, and questions their motive. Hajime explains that the true details could not fit onto the paper, and decides to explain personally.

Nico was arrested and charged on buying drugs in the slums without knowing that he was dealing with drugs. He received a lighter sentence because of this but to make sure they examined him for symptoms of drug abuse. While he seemed clean, he actually had multiple food allergies and unknown illnesses, thus leading him to be sent to a medical reform school and receive intensive care. Momoko notes this but is still unsure of why Nico escaped the reformatory. and Hajime explains it's because he hated needles and medicine and escaped every prison by smashing through the walls. This is why he is sentenced for aggravated escape due to the damage he caused, leaving Samon confused on how he is that strong. Hajime says that because Nanba is advanced, they can treat him with oral medication and flavoured medicine instead.

Next, Rock was sent to juvenile hall for causing a gang riot in the city, leaving Momoko and Samon in suspense. Hajime continues on to say that Rock broke down the walls and escaped because of the gross food, leading him to be sent to prison after yet escape again by breaking down the walls. Both Rock and Nico are in Nanba for aggravated escape due to the damage caused. Rock is now well-behaved because he likes the food at Nanba, leaving Momoko and Samon thinking simplemindedness is a scary thing.

Samon Gokuu yells at Hajime, asking him who he thinks he's talking to. Hajime replies for him to shut up and tells him to eat a banana somewhere. Samon says to not call him that and calls him a bald gorilla, to which Hajime places him in a chokehold. Momoko yells for them both to stop and get back to business, continuing that she only wants to hear the status of Building 13 due to four inmates (Jyugo, Uno, Nico and Rock) being imprisoned there and details that weren't in the report to make sure there are no issues. She tells him that she put him in charge of Building 13 because she confides in his abilities as a supervisor.

Hajime replies that there is nothing to report, and Momoko moves on, asking him what he thinks about the four inmates of Cell 13 and if they deserve to be in prison. She explains that despite having a record full of jailbreaks, they behave excellently and asks why they aren't plotting a jailbreak like every other prison and not being in any reports. She says that if they have changed their acts has she overestimated them, expecting Hajime to know because he knows them the most. She repeats herself, asking if there have been problems with them, to which Hajime replies that there have been no problems and they will not escape. Samon yells that he should be telling the truth before being yelled at by Hajime and frightened.

Hajime threatens that he will break his neck if he keeps talking to him like that, making the other guards scared. Momoko says that she appreciates his report and that he may go while petting Samon. Before excusing himself, Hajime says that while she called the four inmates hardened convicts, he believes that they are just brats and that he will bring their documents to her soon. Samon calls Hajime out on his arrogance, claiming that he will do anything to get him demoted. Momoko says that his personality isn't new, while Samon thinks that Momoko is shaking with rage, while Momoko is freaking out at how Hajime called her by her surname.

Back at Building 13, Hajime says to Seitarou that it was scary at the meeting because they called him without warning and believed Momoko almost found out about it. He then yells at Jyugo to back to his cell. Meanwhile, at the Warden's office, Momoko flusters and trembles over Hajime, hoping he will come back again to bring documents, noting that it was the first time holding a long conversation with Hajime, hoping to be able to ask him more questions and for him to call her by her given name next time.

## Summary

Rock and Jyugo have their hands locked together pushing each other back to see who will be the victor of their fight, as Nico and Uno spectate and cheer them on. Before the two can finish their battle, Yamato Godai interrupts the fight telling them that there is no brawling allowed, to which the main four respond asking who he is.

Yamato introduces himself, Nico asks where Hajime is and then Yamato informs them that he is the acting supervisor because Hajime is sick. Jyugo notes that it is quiet today and Uno comments that it isn't fun without Hajime's reactions. After Yamato realizes he has forgotten the topic, he tells the inmates to stop fighting, which Jyugo and Rock respond that they weren't fighting, but testing their strength. Then, Yamato realizes that the four inmates are the "infamous troublemakers" and the four are surprised at how Yamato didn't know about them, insulting him.

Yamato exclaims that they have made his job much easier, and that he will be happy to beat some sense into them during Hajime's absence, as he drags Jyugo, Uno, Nico, and Rock off to go train, telling them that instead of escaping, they should repent for their crimes and finish confidently and proudly and that he wants them to live happy, bright and honest lives, while they complain. While outside, he explains that men should aspire to have a sturdy physique and that they shall first begin doing a thousand pushups, while they complain but Yamato says that there will be no whining and that they shall let out a battle cry for a brighter tomorrow. Meanwhile, Hajime is laying in his bed at home and Hitoshi asks him if he wants some pieces of apple, while Hajime declines.

After a short timeskip, Hajime is back in action with Seitarou asking him for help, but Hajime tells him that it is still the beginning of the day and that he hasn't fully recovered from his sickness, while Seitarou replies that he's sorry and explains how cell 13 has been misbehaving more during his absence. Hajime explains to Seitarou how he can reduce the motivation of the four troublesome inmates: Uno likes surveys to do with women; Rock likes anything food related; Nico will not move an inch if he's watching anime; as for Jyugo, there is nothing to stop him, however if the others are preoccupied Jyugo loses motivation to escape by 40%. Days later, Seitarou explains to Hajime during his break that the four have stopped bullying him since he gave them whatever they wanted, while Hajime realizes that he is being used as an errand boy.

**Syracuse Herald Journal**- Nats And Celts In 5th Meeting Of Season Here Tonight

Each Squad Wins Twice In Own Gym; Free-For-All At Last Meeting

Boston Celtics and Syracuse Nationals resume their rivalry in the only Saturday night pro basketball game of the season at the War Memorial tonight. Tomorrow Milwaukee invades the Nats’ home lair. The last clash between the Eastern Division pennant contenders was marked by a free-for-all viewed by television fans across the nation. Earl Lloyd of the Nats and Boston’s Ed Macauley were banished. This will be the fifth meeting of the rivals. Each has won two games at home. Syracuse turned back the Celts 120-107 and 110-104 at the Memorial. At Boston the Nats bowed 107-84 and 94-90. Five of the visiting Celts boast double figure scoring averages. Bob Cousy is the pacesetter with a 21.4 average, second best in the entire league. Frank Selvy of Milwaukee who has played in less games leads the loop averages with 21.8. Other double figure men in the Boston lineup are: Ed Macauley, Bill Sharman, Frank Ramsey and Jack Nichols. Coach Red Auerbach’s well balanced high scoring machine is rounded out by Don Barksdale, Bob Brannum, Dwight Morrison, Togo Palazzi and Fred Scolari. In the Celts last start here, Syracuse established an all-time War Memorial scoring record in netting 120 points. Bob Brannum did not play against the Nats in that fray while Cousy was handicapped by a charley horse. Syracuse now enjoys a two and one-half game edge over Boston in the Eastern Division standings, but in the less columns the Nats advantage is only one game. New York, now in second place, entertains Milwaukee tonight and then plays in Beantown against the Celts tomorrow. When Milwaukee arrives for Sunday’s game it will provide area fans with their first opportunity to see Selvy in action in league competition. He was here for a pre-season exhibition as a member of the College All-Americans. The Nats faced Selvy just once this season. In the season’s opener, he was with the now defunct Baltimore Bullets and tallied 30 points against Syracuse.

## Synopsis

Uno explains to Honey and Trois that when Nico's medicine wears off he goes out of control. As Nico's alternate persona awakens, he fights Hachiman. In the meantime, Liang and Upa restrain Daisen Rokuriki and destroy his talisman. Qi interrupts the fight and while Nico attacks him, he injects Nico with his medicine, rendering him unconscious. Hachiman feels as though he has won, however, to his, Liang, and Upa's surprise, Qi injects poison into Hachiman's leg. While Hachiman is unconscious, Upa, Liang, and Qi talk. Hachiman eventually regains consciousness, and tries to fight the trio, but he's taken down by a group attack.

## Summary

Nico's medicine begins to wear off completely and an an alternate personality awakens. In this state, he begins to fight Hachiman with renewed strength and abilities, all while demanding the return of his medicine. Hachiman orders Rokuriki to kill him and the guard fires a qigong attack at Nico, but he reflects it back at him causing severe damage as Qi watches from afar. Nico dodges Hachiman's attacks and begins to fight back; meanwhile, Upa and Liang remove Rokiriki's talisman making him unable to follow Hachiman's orders. As Nico recalls parts of his past, he launches at his opponent once again continuing to command that he receives his medicine. Eventually, Qi emerges from his hiding place and explains the situation to Hachiman. Nico smells his medicine on Qi and begins to attack him, with Qi retaliating by injecting Nico with his medicine until he loses conciousness.

With Nico safely out of the way, Hachiman orders Qi to kill Liang and Upa; instead, he produces a needle and injects Hachiman with it; he explains its paralytic effects and that he was planning it from the beginning. He becomes angry as he recalls learning in the past that Upa was kidnapped as a child to have his organs sold to the black market because of his qigong, all on Hachiman's orders. Angered, the latter attacks Qi but is knocked out by Upa and Liang, who subsequently confront their cellmate. Qi is apologetic but still tries to explain the benefits of his actions, which only angers Upa further. He calls Qi out on his hypocracy and recalls that while nearly dying to buy back his organs, Qi donated his own to him. Meanwhile, Nico awakens and, upon seeing them, compares them to his relationship with his own cellmates.

However, Hachiman then regains conciousness and moves to attack them once again; as Liang and Upa distract him, Qi produces a poisones gas that eventually causes Hachiman to pass out, finally defeating him. Qi recalls being brought to building five's water garden by a grateful Samon.
