Translation:

"Do you think that I'll accept this."

"Oh... since you sisters are clever... oh mother! Okay sisters, struggle please!"

He could hear the sounds of intermittent footsteps outside. Shortly he could hear military boots coming and sounds of swearing in Japanese.

"Don't pull... I'll kill you... I'll kill you... don't pull!"

"Come... come... please come! Killing, it's good that you cry out not to die. Is that the case? ... if you want to die, please come... oh... please don't pull... please kill me."

"Save me, please brothers! Please save us sisters... we're struggling. Please save us. Oh mother, blood! Lots of blood!"

While those sounds seemed to hazily come close and go away, because it was stuffy and suffocating in the cupboard he lost consciousness. He did not know how long he was unconscious. The shirts of the three girls were crumpled up and their hair was messy. The floor where the mango portions had been scattered was soiled all over by blood. As for the girl who was leaning against the wall, while stretching out her thigh she covered it with her arm. "Because I there's no way I can reach and wipe up the drops of blood, while planning just now I've come to feel pain," he said softly.

After that, while tenderly smiling at him [she said,] "Don't be worried any more, the Japanese [have left."]
