On their way to Freiham, Tenma and Dieter hitchike with a couple of English travelers. They learn that Mr. Jones is a retired police officer. Mr. Jones is constantly asking questions to Tenma and seems suspicious about him.
The car where they are traveling runs out of fuel. Tenma and Dieter catch a ride on a truck to a nearby station while Leia and Mr. Jones stay with the car. Both of them argue about whether Tenma will come back to help them or not. At dusk, Tenma and Dieter come back with fuel for the car.
