Tres: I really don't remember much. It was some guy that was wanted, I guess for murder, I don't think he really did it. I think. I'm not sure. But, yeah, the issues I treked through, this guy was searching for a little elementary school girl, and eventually he found her, but right before they could reunite, the cop came in and they started fighting and the cop beat him really bad and shot him a few times but the guy still escaped.
特雷斯：我不太记得了。大概是有关一个因为谋杀而被通缉的男人的故事，不过我觉得他没有进行谋杀。我也不太确定。我记得，这个男人在寻找一个小学女孩，他终于找到了她，可是就在他们重聚之前，警察出现了，然后他们开始打斗，警察把他打得很惨，而且还朝他开了几枪，不过这个男人还是成功逃走了。
Joel: So this is just one comic book or it's a whole series?

乔尔：我记得你说过你小时候看过的一些漫画书，是吗？
Tres: I can tell you about the comic book I read as an adult. (OK. OK.) I think the best Japanese comic out there today is Nijuuseki-shonen, "20th Century Boys" and it's a story of kids who make up this fantasy world and how they save the world and then when they become adults they learn that all these things that they've created are starting to come true. The rest you should read.
特雷斯：我可以跟你说说我成年后看的漫画书。（好）我认为现在日本最好的漫画是《20世纪少年》，这部漫画讲的是，一群虚构出一个世界的孩子如何守护这个世界，还有他们成年后发现所有他们编造的事情都成为了现实。具体内容你要自己去看漫画。

Tres: You can buy one brand new from say 500 Yen to up to a 1,000 Yen, or you can go to convenience stores and buy the weekly sale books that have various comics inside, which I think are maybe 270 Yen, I think, or you can go to a used comic book store and buy the popular comics for somewhere from 250 and 350 yen.
特雷斯：500到1000日元可以买一本崭新的漫画书，或者你可以去便利店买连载多个漫画的周刊，周刊大概要270日元，你还可以去二手漫画书店，花250到350日元就可以买到受欢迎的漫画。
