Angel Heart 14
A girl is being followed by two men. She manages to escape and notices the message board. When Ryo goes and check it the next day, he thus sees he’s got a client: the girl presents herself as Nagisa, and she’s being chased by Yakuza. She confesses she often seduces men to steal their money, and one of those was a yakuza. Meanwhile, Saeko has a lot of trouble teaching Xiang Ying normal manners. She almost killed some guy who was hitting on her because she didn’t understand ^_^; Ryo then gives Xiang Ying the task of taking Nagisa to their apartment. Nagisa wants to have fun on their way there, but Xiang Ying doesn’t let her: she says her mission is to take Nagisa to their destination without any detours. Nagisa is still acting childish and Xiang Ying tells her that if she gets attacked she wont help her, because her mission is only to take her to the apartment. Because of Nagisa’s behaviour, she managed to attract the attention of those yakuza again. When Xiang Ying and Nagisa end up in a narrow alley, they are there and attack Nagisa. At first Xiang Ying doesn’t help her, but suddenly something changes inside of her and she decides to help the girl anyhow. The next day at the Cat’s Eye, she is pondering about why she helped Nagisa, when the girl comes in, wearing her school uniform. She says she decided to go back to school and hands Xiang Ying a letter, asking her to be friends. It later seems that it’s more of a love letter, and Xin Hong is not too happy about it, but Xiang Ying is very happy she managed to make a friend.
This was another Xiang Ying episode. It was nice to see Ryo picking up his job as City Hunter again, although it was mainly Xiang Ying who did the job in this episode.
