The Prince in His Dark Days

Atsuko asks her father if he's managed to find Nemo yet. He doesn't look like he has left the Coun. He's just been covering his tracks. He won't tell his family about it until after his coming-of-age ceremony, which is two weeks away. The family tailor will be making Nemo's suit for the wedding, and Nemo is so happy to see him again that he tears up. He tells his father that the corpse of a young man has been found in the mountains near Atsugi. The man is believed to be in his late teens or early 20s. Nemo asks his father to clean up the corpse right away. He says that he never wanted Nemo to be Nemo, but now that he is, he wants to stay and be with him.
