Picking up from where we last left off in the Minato Building, we've defeated The Queen of Level 3 and made our way back to the elevator





Before we start our journey on the top floor, we should probably check on what's happening with our new girlfriend.

We haven't got a single message on our phone yet, which is strange. Surely the lady at the store would have been raving about how great a customer we are, and her friend would be calling us immediately the moment she got home, even before she put her bags down, right?

Let's go Pick Up Girls





: Hey Taro-Kun.


: Sorry, she hasn't come back yet. I think I'll be back soon.


: Please wait a little longer.


: Thank you for your cooperation.



Taro sounds weirdly authoritarian. I'm imagining he's saying this, whilst visibly putting a hand on his sword hilt. Just to get his message across.

Anyway, we'll just have to be patient for longer, I guess. Back to the Minato Building!





Now we're on the top floor. This one has the oddest layout yet. It is effectively a set of concentric square corridors, with a single room in the middle.

Just what the hell is the purpose of this place anyway?





We don't meet many new faces here, but we do run into the Fake Police Officer. He's not to be confused with the Fake Security Guard, as he's wearing black, not blue.





We also meet yet another guy to complete the Macho Man trio - The Masked Wrestler.

Alongside The Queen, he was guarding perhaps our most elusive loot yet…





The Chinese CDs!

These are an equippable item, so my best guess is they'll change the music in race battles like in the last game.

We also found a new, more powerful Wooden Sword!





Not just Bamboo anymore, this one is made of… uh…
Wood.

The Bamboo sword was powerful enough - can’t wait to see the sort of damage this one does on some well deserving enemies…





… Oh goddamnit.





Finally we get to the random little office in the center of the room. It entirely consists of a rug, a couple of seats, and three ash trays. Whoever owns this office must smoke an awful lot.

There is also a chest there. I wonder what's inside?





Oh dear. It appears the chest is being guarded by Bishamon, Warrior-King God of Warfare.

I didn't expect us to be battling Buddhist Deities today, but here we are.

Bishamon is extremely powerful and can overpower Taro easily. Our best bet for now is to just Run Away.

Maybe we'll discover a holy relic somewhere or a magic amulet that can be used to defeat the holy warrior god?

…In this game about car drag racing.
