Synopsis
While Shoji is fishing ayu — known as the "princess of the waters" — he runs into trouble with a trio of guys betting on ayu fishing. "If you want an apology, make Sanpei fight us," the bullies demand, and Sanpei offers them a contest: how many ayu can they take with a single decoy ayu in the two hours before the 5 o'clock siren? While the trio and an eager Shoji rush to it, Sanpei calmly settles in for a nap and doesn't seem to want to start fishing at all.
