job and going missing.

Ilpalazzo: And on top of that, "time is money" you say?
Ilpalazzo: To compare the value of time equal to the value of money when time is much
more important......

P. 121
Excel: Anyway Ha-chan, what is today's plan?
Hyatt: Ummm, what indeed.
Excel: Hmmmmmm? (the actual sound is the continuation of her "naniiiiii" from the previous
line. There is no english equivalent because "what" doesn't end in a vowel.)
Hyatt: Ah, umm, I'm still a new employee who doesn't know her right from her left...
Hyatt: Certainly sempai I thought you knew...
Excel: ...I was fighting a six-legged akuma*- (akuma can be devil, demon, evil spirit or
Satan himself, so I felt it best to leave it and let the reader choose)
Hyatt: Shall we go back and ask again?
Excel: Wait a sec......
Excel: ............
Excel: ...It was trash, right?
Hyatt: Yes, trash.

Excel's third neighbor: Hmmm......
Excel's third neighbor: This amp and speaker are still usable. (He speaks in kansai-ben, a
dialect of parts of western Japan, like a southern drawl for lack of a better term)
Excel's neighbor: There are guys who would waste this kinda stuff.
Excel's third neighbor: But there are guys like us, so it's give and take.
Excel's neighbor: You may be right.
Excel's neighbor: Jeez, what a mess.
P. 123
Excel's neighbor: Whaddya think about this vacuum cleaner?
Excel: Hey, Ha-chan, it's a mountain of trash!

Hyatt: There sure is a lot isn't there,
Hyatt: What should we do now?
Excel: Wait a minute!!
Hyatt: Sempai......?
P. 124
Excel: Ha-chan, do you think this TV would look good in our house?
Hyatt: Now that you mention it, our hideout doesn't have a television.
Excel: Yeah, so I thought maybe we could use it,
Hyatt: Then the other day when I risked my life, the NHK bill collector who requested time
off, what was that about?
Excel: Life has many riddles huh,
*what a waste of blood
Excel: Anyway, hey, it would be convenient if we had a tv, in various ways.
Hyatt: Well of course, I have no objections...
Excel: Then let's look for stuff to take back!
Hyatt: Ah, sempai...
P. 125

Excel's neighbor: Shut up!
Excel's neighbor: I don't want anyone to see me like that!
Excel's third neighbor: What, she's really that poor?

surname, or it means "burn".
Hyatt: It was a hanging scroll.
Excel: Let's get rid of it.
*Except it had already been thrown away in the first place
Excel: Oh it doesn't matter. If we take anything else, it won't fit in the room.
Hyatt: Oh...
