High School Girl Next Door: Melons and Peeping
aka Hidden Video Report: Dark Shot!
aka Turtle Vision

Welcome back.

Well, did you get
some good ones?

I'm not so sure.
Don't expect too much.

Well, in spite of what you say,
I always really like what you get.

Somehow, your videos make me feel
like I'm really doing the peeping myself.

I feel something from your films.

I don't really know what it is,
but you are the best cameraman.

Keep up the good work.

There's an address written
on the back of the picture.

I want you to head over
there tonight.



There's a good amount of customers who
want to see peeping films of those kind of girls.

Well, you can get some interesting ones.
Don't you think so?

If yakuza or the like are involved,
I could get in some deep shit.

Don't be worried.
That's unlike you.

Anyways, you're a pro among pros.

You'll never do anything
to give away your presence.

Even if you do get into trouble,
I'll smooth things over for you.

Okay, I gotta go do it tonight.

That's good. Oh, hey!

This is the newest type.

It'll work good,
even in dark places.

Hello, I want to call a girl.

Well, let me see...
I'd rather have an ordinary girl.

Yeah, send me the most
ordinary-looking girl please.



My address is Shinjuku Ward,
West Shinjuku 3-15.

Oh, hello. I'd like to order
a full course dinner for two.

Alright, better eat before
it gets cold. I'm starving.

What's the matter?
C'mon, eat!

Do you always make girls
eat with you like this?

I'm not very hungry right now.

It's okay, just eat!

It's you!

What's the matter with you?
You're spacing out.

Did something happen?

If there's something bothering you,
don't hesitate to tell me.

You're the best I've got, and
my business depends on you.

It's nothing.
I'm just a little tired.

I see.
Well, don't overdo it.

If you collapse on me,
I'll go out of business.

I don't mind, so long as you
get appropriate rest.

Anyways, our health
is important to our work, too.

This way.

Is it alright?

Was it difficult?
Was it painful?

You poor thing.
You poor thing.

Alright, I did it!

I bought lots of mushrooms,
because they were on sale today.

You said you like them, right?

To be honest, I don't really
like mushrooms very much.

But it's okay. I want to start
liking the things that you like.

Not only that, I've heard
about it in a song too.

It said likes and dislikes are
the shame of the masses.

Oh, yeah. There is something the
old woman at the greengrocer told me.

Lately, a female degenerate has
been appearing frequently in this area.

Somehow, it seems that she only goes
after men. She cuts their eyes with a blade.

She said that she doesn't target women,
but I don't feel very good about this.

Who are you?

What is this place?

What am I doing here?

Who are you?

Are you saying you don't
know why you're here?

It seems you have a tendency
to go sleepwalking.

What?

I'm the one who was
taken by surprise.

There was a girl wearing a sailor suit, lying
in the street in the middle of the night.

I thought something was up.

Maybe you don't want my help,

but I think for now you should go to
the hospital and see a doctor.

Walking at night like that
is too dangerous.

But it's never happened
even once until now.

You can't help but not be aware of it yourself,
but wouldn't your family have noticed?

But my big sister hasn't
said a word about it.

What about the rest
of your family?

I just live alone with
my big sister.

What's the matter?

Do you know how to get to
the hospital over that way?

If it's okay,
I'd like you to take me.

It's not like I'm clueless, but...

Thank you.

Thanks.

Is this your first time
with video therapy?

Yes. What sort of thing
are we doing?

It's nothing difficult. All you have
to do is be quiet and watch the video.

A video?

It's something like an "image video",

but it directly influences the
human subconsciousness.

It opens what we could refer to as
the hidden door deep within the heart.

After the psychological trauma
is exposed, the rest is up to you.

So what are you saying?

In other words,
erase and forget it.

So I'm gonna have
my memories erased?

In a sense, psychological trauma
is like noise left on a videotape.

It's best to eliminate it.

And it's not necessarily the case that the
noise got there because of yourself.

What do you mean?

If you leave a videotape by the loudest
television or speaker for a long time...

...noise gets onto it sometimes, right?

The same kind of thing
happens between people.

In other words, the severe psychological
trauma of someone dear to you spreads...

...when you're in close contact with
them for a long period of time.

In this case, the affected person
isn't conscious of it at all,

so it's even harder to deal with.

Well, that's enough for the explanation.
Let's hurry up and get started.

You've started seeing something, huh?

The roof of a school.

What else?

A few men...
They're wearing school uniforms.

What are they doing?

They're laughing.

And then...

They're getting on top of my body.

Nooo!

A camera...

A video camera.

They're filming me...
they're filming me.

It's been quite some time, Eiji.

I spent forever looking for you.

No!
What is this?!

Stop!

Eiji!

No!

No!

Nooo!!

It's okay now. It's over.
It's all over already.

Maki!

Eiji!

Let me get a better look
at your face.

Eiji!

Maki!
