Picked Up Something Bad! (3), originally The Crimson Rescue Method! in the WSJ release, is the three hundred seventeenth chapter of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga. It is also the fifty-second chapter of Part IV: Diamond Is Unbreakable. ==Summary== Josuke Higashikata and Joseph Joestar find themselves in a difficult situation as the baby they are taking care of can not only make herself invisible, but also surrounding objects. When Joseph puts her into a carriage he bought, it also begins to disappear and Joseph notices that his hands remain invisible. The baby's power is getting stronger with stress and for the moment has a range of 30cm around her. A passerby sees the partially invisible carriage, and wondering what it might be, tosses a cigarette butt toward it, prompting Joseph to jump in its path to protect the baby. However he also accidentally knocks away the carriage which begins to roll downhill. Joseph's mistake angers Josuke who berates his father before chasing after the carriage. As the baby is more distraught, the stand of her ability increases, and the carriage is now fully invisible, as well as the ground below it. Josuke hears the carriage collide against, a tree, and more urgently a splash in the water. He realizes that the baby fell into the pond. Angry at Joseph's blunder, all of Josuke's resentment resurfaces, and he rudely tells Joseph to stay back, diving into the water but unable to find the baby. Joseph nonetheless intervenes, and cuts his writsts to add color to the water. Taken aback by Joseph's move, he finally spot the baby and manages to save the baby. With the baby in Crazy Diamond's hands, Josuke turns toward Joseph, and impressed by his sense of sacrifice, warmly smiles at him, a smile Joseph welcomes.

Summary

Josuke urges Joseph to let go of the invisible baby. Even upon letting go, Joseph's hands remain invisible, while Josuke notices something strange going on with the carriage. As the carriage starts to disappear, Josuke picks up a pacifier and throws it toward the carriage. The pacifier disappears as well, and Josuke realizes that the baby can turn anything within a 30 centimeter radius invisible. Josuke notes that if the baby's Stand is allowed to get any stronger, no one will be able to approach it without turning invisible. Joseph figures that her Stand is getting stronger because she is under stress, not wanting to be touched by a stranger. Meanwhile, a man is driving by on his bike while smoking. Noticing what remains of the carriage by the side of the road, he tosses his cigarette towards it. Joseph leaps forward and catches the cigarette, while the man just calls the two weirdos and continues onward. Suddenly, the baby carriage starts rolling downhill and Josuke runs after it, while asking Joseph why he isn't helping. As the baby's stress increases, even the ground itself gets turned invisible. Soon the baby carriage falls into the river and Josuke frantically starts looking for her. Joseph tries to help, but Josuke snaps at him and tells him to stay out of it. Josuke dives into the river to search for the baby, but to no avail. Joseph follows him in, and slits his wrist, his blood giving the water color, allowing them to spot the baby. Josuke picks up the baby with Crazy Diamond, as Josuke questions why Joseph went so far in order to save a stranger's kid. Joseph just responds by saying he looked good in front of his son.
