MISSION 4: ONE NIGHT IN THE CONVENIENCE STORE
[Ordinary Assassin] Just because you didn't win a prize
doesn't mean you can start swearing.
HANDMADE BEEF BALLS
ORDINARY ASSASSIN KILLER RANK: 11,279
You're stealing food again. And those meatballs aren't even cooked.
So? Germs won't kill me. Whatever.
HARUKAZE ICHIRO KILLER RANK: 2,117
Ah.
That night he killed Redtooth.
-The Redtooth? -Yes. [gasps]
-Hi. -[both gasp]
So, you said that Seven killed Redtooth. Is that really true?
[Harukaze Ichiro] That hairstylist and I
have about the same level of combat skills.
How can he defeat a Shadow Assassin? He must be putting on a show.
Actually, I've been to his hair salon before.
It was before I started at the convenience store.
DAI BO HAIR SALON
[Ordinary Assassin] Sir, I… Umm… I… I… I want to get a haircut.
What style do you want?
BUT HE SEEMS SO ORDINARY
You're the guy who fought against me in the public restroom?
You're probably the only assassin in this anime who'd dress like that.
If your Qi Controlled Scissors are so awesome,
then why would you be a hairstylist here?
Because I like being a hairstylist.
But you don't really have any customers.
SMT HAIRSTYLING ART AND DESIGN
That's because I'm always busy with missions.
[phone ringing]
Hey, Dai Bo.
Seven! The kids are almost out of school.
Why aren't you at the beef offal stand yet?
Because an ordinary man just came in for a haircut.
You'll make a lot more from the kids than cutting hair.
Don't take too long. Otherwise, instead they'll all go get bubble tea.
Okay, I'll be there when I finish this haircut.
[Ordinary Assassin] Busy with missions
meant selling beef offal.
So why is he still so happy?
You just said that…
that I'm probably the only guy in this anime
who would dress like this. So…
Is that true?
Well… do you think it's that important?
Hey, you, give me two popsicles.
[Ordinary Assassin] Do you want to add two yuan for extra coconut juice?
You can enter the lucky raffle too.
[kid] No. Lucky raffles are meant to deceive children.
All right, that'll be five yuan.
Lucky raffles aren't scams, right?
It's just that ordinary people like us aren't lucky enough to win them.
Ow, my stomach.
-I told you not to steal those meatballs. -Really hurts.
I'm going to the restroom.
You've got the store by yourself.

SCISSOR SEVEN SHADOW DESTINY
[Ordinary Assassin[ There aren't a lot of customers now.
Why don't I…
practice my knife skills?
The first section is my stretches.
One, two, three, four,
two, one, two, four,
three, one, two, one, three, four…
[doorbell ringing]
Three, one, four, two, three, one, four, two, four, three--
Robbery! Give me all your money!
[dramatic music playing]
How dare you try to rob my store? You have no right!
-[crashing] -[robber] I'm gonna slap you then.
By the way that you're dressed, I thought you were one of my friends.
[cymbal crashing, poignant music playing]
[Ordinary Assassin] How could it be that I'm the only one?
Stop it!
Let… Let go of that child!
[passenger] And who are you?
[young Ordinary Assassin] Me? I am an honorable, chivalrous assassin.
[gasps]
[passenger] That's all you can do? Don't be a hero, you scum.
[robber] Hey, wake up and make me a bowl of noodles.
I'm bleeding.
You shouldn't be a hero anymore.
If you can't defeat him yourself, just call for some help.
-Hmm? Er, where's my phone? -[robber] So you're an assassin?
Your ranking is the lowest I've ever seen.
What a puny weakling.
Don't even try to call for help 'cause I took your phone.
Plus, it's raining.
No one's going to come out here anyways.
Don't waste your breath.
A seven-day trip on a luxury cruise?
And a huge LCD TV?
Hey, give me a lucky raffle ticket.
The manager said you have to buy coconut juice to enter.
And people with guns can do it too.
LUCKY DRAW
THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING
"Thanks for your participation" What the hell does that mean?
That means thank you for participating,
but you didn't win anything.
[robber] Hmph. Who wants your thanks?
I want a prize.
Scratch them off with me, and then I'll take the prize.
As a store clerk, I will never, ever…
refuse a request from a customer. I'll do it.
"Thanks for your participation" again.
Just give me two more.
We don't have any left.
You scratched all that we had.
THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING
I didn't win any prizes.
This stupid lucky draw… It's a scam after all.
Go ahead and make me some noodles. I'm leaving after I eat.
What sauce do you want?
[robber] Ketchup.
SPICY
When he's choking on the hot sauce, I'll ambush him.
[jaunty music playing]
[exclaims]
Hey, I asked you to make it with ketchup on it.
You can't even make noodles right.
What a loser.
If I were your manager, I would fire you.
Now's my chance!
Ah!
Now your face is exposed to the security cameras.
[panting]
You won't be able to escape from this island.
[panting]
Drop the money. Turn yourself in!
So annoying.
Since you saw my face,
now I'm going to have to murder you.
-You're hiding? -[thunder crashes]
Gunshots are scary, aren't they?
We're both just ordinary people,
both trying to make a living.
Why don't you pretend nothing ever happened?
Why be the hero?
[thunder crashing]
You know we're not the chosen ones anyway.
Just accept it.
An assassin's mission is never allowed to fail, so it's better to be more skillful.
Keep trying. He's not even good enough to be assigned a mission.
[poignant music playing]
Ever since I became an assassin, I've never actually received a mission.
HIRING NOW: PART-TIME STORE CLERK
That's the reason I took this side job
after I saw the listing.
Thank you very much. Please come again.
ASSASSINS' WORLD BESTSELLER!
[sighs]
How ordinary.
I'm about to become a real convenience store clerk.
LUCKY
[young Ordinary Assassin] I really am ordinary, I guess.
I couldn't defeat them.
It's okay if you lost. Don't feel bad.
I feel lucky
just that you showed up to help me.
Lucky?
Because you're the only one who came to save me.
The… the only one?
Mmm.
Thank you for saving me.
THANK YOU
[sighs]
It's not that important
whether we're the chosen ones, right?
[rock music playing]
Don't look down upon ordinary assassins!
You're finally willing to come out?
Ah! My eyes!
I'm going to crack your head open!
Where is he?
[man singing in Chinese]
-[Ordinary Assassin exclaiming] -[robber grunts]
[robber] Sneak attack!
[both grunting]
[robber] Let go, loser!
[both grunting]
Hey, aren't you just a store clerk? What do you care about the money?
[Ordinary Assassin yells]
Don't you look down upon a convenience store clerk!
[both grunting and struggling]
[robber screaming]
[robber] Body slam!
[Ordinary Assassin exclaims]
Looks like I'm the one who won the prize, loser.
That means thank you for participating, but you didn't win anything.
Well, do you think it's that important?
[young scholar] It's okay if you lost. Don't feel bad.
[Seven] Because I like being a hairstylist.
[panting]
[doorbell rings]
So… I forgot my umbrella.
[Ordinary Assassin] Catch the thief, idiot!
[robber] Let go of me!
[Ordinary Assassin] Ah! You're biting my foot!
[Harukaze] You're dressed alike!
Why do you try so hard?
Without a sword too.
I was there. So, I can't pretend nothing happened.
The guy had a gun. Why be so brave?
Mmm… Maybe I'm just more courageous when I have a mask on.
It was dumb for you to try to beat him.
You've drunk so many of those bottles. Do you ever win anything?
-No, no. -Then why still drink it?
-It tastes good. -You won't get tired of it?
I won't get tired if I like it.
Oh.
[Harukaze] It just says "Thanks for your participation." Why are you so happy?
THANK YOU
[woman singing in Chinese]
[Ordinary Assassin] I really wanna win one of those TVs.
[song fades]
[man] Do you recognize this person? Is it your friend?
[Ordinary Assassin] Hmm?
[both] Hmm.
This is one of the Seven Major Shadow Assassins!
