Thrilled by a friend's poetry collection, Takuboku begins to lose confidence in himself. Kyousuke tries to cheer him up, but when he finds out that Takuboku was involved in talks of someone buying Oen, the prostitute from the same province as them, he can't conceal his indignation. Meanwhile, at the milk hall, Yoshii, Sakutarou, and Bokusui hold a poetry contest, refereed by Nomura, to see who will confess their feelings to Kiku, the waitress.
Now, the lone detective feels troubled.
والآن يشعر المُتحرّي الوحيد بالقلق
Sofort verspürte der Detektiv Kummer.
El solitario detective está abrumado.
El solitario detective está abrumado.
Désormais seul,
Ormai solo,
Agora, o detetive
solitário está perturbado
Там лишь осени фонтан.
