"DRIFTING DETECTIVE TRAGEDY IN THE RED VALLEY" "Small airplane crashed in Akaiwadake valley." "President of Shinnippon Kaihatsu, Mr. Nagumo dead, along with the pilot." "People missing in Akaiwadake valley No bodies found." "Cast" "CHIBA Shinichi SONE Harumi" "KITAHARA Shigemi KOBAYASHI Yuko KOZATO Yayoi" "USAMI Junya ANDO Mitsuo KOSHIMA Ichiro SUDO Ken" "Directed by FUKASAKU Kinji" "Excuse me." "Roughly how long would it take to get to Akaiwadake Valley?" "With those clothes?" "I have other clothes." "Anyway, you wouldn't be able to make it by yourself." "Fine." "Hey, wait!" "I see you're strong-willed." "I'll give you a ride." "Thank you." " There you go." " Thanks." "You're that pilot's sister?" "Yes." "My name is Misako Kayama." "So you're here to see the accident site?" "Yes." "My brother was a skilled pilot." "The investigation report said it was caused by the bad visibility and weather, but I just can't believe it." "So, I'm here." "I see." "Oh, you're his sister." "I feel sorry, but everything's done now." "Going to the site will change nothing." "But, I feel the same as Misako does." "I don't think it was just an accident." "You told me that only Mr. Nagumo's face was awfully disfigured." "It's strange." "I suspect it was caused by Kido and his men." "Chikako!" "Dad, I know you suspect that too." "There is no evidence of it." "It's a waste of your time pondering it." "Who is this Kido person?" "He's been hustling the deceased Mr. Nagumo to take control of a development scheme in this area using underhanded tactics." "A real scumbag." "The scheme is to build ski resorts and golf courses ranging from Akaiwadake Valley to all over this area." "Ae you may see, this farm is right in the middle of that area, so he's been trying to get rid of us." "Recently, he's even hired some gangsters." "Chikako, stop that nonsense, and show her to the site." "My dad says that, but I believe the evidence is there to find." "Only if I were a man." "Help!" "Someone!" " Nobody's gonna come!" " Don't worry!" "Actually, someone is here." "Who the hell are you?" "Who do you think?" "Dammit!" "We'll take care of you later!" "Thank you so much." "No need." "Those lads were hilarious." "But you shouldn't be wandering here alone." "There are monsters in these mountains." "You'd better go home." "It says Bersanbern, made in Germany." "I think it means appeal." "This is a really expensive nail polish." "It isn't yours?" "Doesn't matter." "I don't need it anyway." "Excuse me..." "We'll see each other again." "Excuse me, let me ask you something." "What was that lovely charm for?" "To repel bugs, evil, and women." "I see you know how to handle yourself." "Don't dodge my questions." "Why did you try to kill me?" "Hey, I didn't try to kill you." "You just passed across where my sweetheart was playing." "Here." "Seven shots for one rabbit." "Such a generous lover you are." "That's what's fun." "Anyway, for getting to know you now, here." "I'm Tetsu the Spade." "My hobby is the gun, my thoughts are of cash." "You can guess my profession from those clues." "I see." "You've got a job that applies to practicality and your interests." "Making good money?" "Whatever you think." "Can't say it out loud." "I'm afraid of the tax man." "So long." "Is that the guy from earlier?" "Yeah, that's him." "And who's the guy on the horse?" "He must be the new guy Boss hired." "I think his name is Tetsu." "You guys go on ahead and tell the boss that I'll go pick up Tetsu." "Right." "So, it's my turn to be a target." "Tetsu the Spade, I assume." "I'm honored you know me." "And, who is this one-eyed gentleman?" "I'm Southpaw Gen." "I've been ordered by the boss to pick you up." "Oh, thanks." "Here, then, for getting to know you." "Did you target that guy knowing who he was?" "No." "Well, I guess he's what I was hired for." "Exactly, but I guess he's a bit more than you can handle." "That son of a bitch." "Too many ill-mannered men in these mountains." "He's going to be handful for you!" "I'm not too sure about that." "We both work in the same field, so let's not have any silly arguments." "Right, boss?" "All right." "Follow me." "Come on, now." "Don't scare me like that!" "Who scared whom?" "Who are you?" "I'm Goro Saionji, just a drifter." "I was camping on the mountainside." "But it got too cold." "So I stayed here for a night." "What were you doing in the mountains?" "Well, let's see..." "I guess I was fighting monsters." "Well, see ya!" "Sister!" "Who's she?" "Her?" "She's the sister of that pilot who died in Akaiwadage valley." "I didn't know." "You seem interested in her." "I met her yesterday in the mountains." "Then you're the one who saved her." "I see." "I had no idea." "Misako, come here!" " What's going on?" " Hurry!" "Just come!" "That guy from yesterday is here." "He's a drifter." "Excuse me, are you from this farm?" "Yes, I am." "Can I help you?" "I'm dropping by to talk to Mr. Ueda. ls he here?" "Yes, just a moment." "I'll go tell him." "Tell him Kito of Hokuto Kanko is here." "He knows who I am." "I assume you already know." "I've received all the rights to this farm and property from the departed Mr. Nagumo." "I'm here today to have your approval for that." "Well, as a matter of fact I've received the exclusive rights to this land." "No, there's no way." "Please verify it." "The writings and the signature, everything is from Mr. Nagumo." "I can't believe this." "The day his airplane crashed, he was coming over here only to tell us that he would rent us this farm." "Yes." "Mr. Nagumo wasn't someone who would lie." "But here is the evidence." "Use some common sense." "Letting this vast, valuable land sit for nothing is unrealistic and almost impossible for an entrepreneur and investor." "Mr. Nagumo was a different person from you." "He understood our plan to foster orphans." "Why don't you call the headquarters of" "Shinnippon Kaihatsu in Tokyo and verify this?" "A fact is a fact, and nothing will change the facts." "This is all of Mr. Namugo's decision." "Furthermore, this farm and land were Mr. Nagumo's personal property, so his company has nothing to do with this matter." "In any case, it's been decided." "There's no point in discussing it." "Now, I'll tell you what our demands are towards this land." "From this month on, we need you to tender 600,000 yen to Hokuto Kanko as rent for this farm." "Are you nuts?" "Even if we were to approve this transaction, 600,000 yen a month is not the kind of money we have." "Well then, there is no other option but to evict you." "Eviction..." "If that's the case, though, I'd like to offer some money as an eviction fee." "I used to be a representative of the state, so I can't cruelly force you out." "Mr. Kido, I can't give you an answer at this moment, but I am determined to be buried in the soil of this farm." "Then are you going to somehow manage to pay the rent?" "That's blackmail." "We're going to settle this, even if it means going to court." "I see." "I'm sorry to hear you say that." "We have different ways of settling this as well." "Now excuse me." "Damn kids." "Outta the way." "You guys are having a great time here." "What are you doing here?" "Well, I've heard that I can borrow a horse here." " What?" " You have some nice horses here." "Such a warm welcome, just like a tourism center should have." "Excuse me." "I see." "This is where the plane crashed, and this is where the landslide occurred." "Who are you?" "What?" "Your men haven't reported to you yet?" " What did you say?" " Oh my!" "Don't get so hot under the collar." "I'm here today about this headline." "What?" "To find those corpses, I'd like to borrow a horse from here." "The fee will be paid by Mr. Nagumo's company." "How is it?" "I'm sorry, but we are very much tied up with many other affairs." "I see." "Your hands are tied." "Close, but not close enough." "These guys don't know how to use what they have." "Are you just a spectator today?" "Unfortunately, my profession is not boxing." "All right, I'll borrow this one." "After him." "Damn it!" "I was waiting for you." "What is this, treasure hunting?" "That tourism center is your employer." "Good for you." "Your business runs smooth." "Nah, this isn't so business-like a matter." "My sweetheart here insisted on seeing you." "Thank you for that, but may I ask why?" "Why, because of this." "She has her dignity." "And insulting her trademark made her quite upset." "I see. ls your long speech over now?" "This is it." "Here it comes!" "Hey!" "Are you blind?" "What are you shooting at?" "What?" "Bastard." "I'm right here, you ogre." "Your sweetheart may be blind, but I'm not." "Damn it!" "So, kill me now!" "Unfortunately, I don't have any interest in killing people." "Hey, give me some of that." "So good!" "Hey, you're strong." "Everybody says so." "I'm pretty good too, right?" "Of course, you're the best." "Eepecially when the skin on your face is so thick." "What the hell!" "You're funny!" "You won today..." "But the next time, I'll beat you." "Don't strain yourself too much." "I have to." "My mother always said, "if you get punched once, punch him twice."" "I'll be waiting for your next challenge." "Keep waiting for it." "Understood!" "Dad, stay strong." "Don't give in like that." "If they threaten us like that, we can sue them for blackmail." "I mean, first of all, 600,000 yen per month rent is outrageous." "Chikako, I'm not afraid of Kido." "I just don't know what Mr. Nagumo intended." "If he was to betray us, then I'd be ready for the consequences." "But I don't think Mr. Nagumo would..." "I agree." "I mean, it's strange he'd sign over to his rival company in the first place." "They must have used illegal methods." "They must have threatened and forced him to sign that document." "That's something Kido would do." "I assume that's right." "Hi, excuse me for interrupting." "I'm Goro Saionji." "Oh, you're that guy." "I've heard about you from Chikako." "The Drifter of Justice!" "Anyway, about the matter you were discussing, these girls' guess is right." "But there's no evidence." "Actually, to search for that evidence is my job." "You, are you the police?" "No, I'm just a curious private detective." "The Shinnippon Kaihatsu company asked me to do this." "Well, I'll explain everything later, but before that, I'd like to ask you for a favor." "What is it?" "Could I have a place to stay for two or three days?" "It would be really convenient for my investigation to stay here." "Of course you can, though we can't offer you anything special." "Oh, this is so much help." "Actually I've got company today, and I was hesitant to make her camp outside." "Company?" "Yes, my girlfriend." "What?" "Where is she now?" "Oh, excuse me, that's her." "Oh, so that's your girlfriend." "Yeah, she's five years old and very, very adorable." "Goro!" "Where are you going today?" "Near the glen." "I'll be back in the early afternoon." "Could I come with you?" "I don't think so." "Do you still have that nail polish bottle?" "Yes, I do." "May I borrow it for a while?" "Sure you can, but what are you going to do with it?" "I'll look for the person who lost it, and get a reward." "Play with her if you would." "What?" "Goro?" "Yes, he's sniffing around in this area right here." "Boss, should I?" "Okay." "Tetsu, take care of Goro." "Here we go." "That's what I'm talking about." "But don't use your gun." "Use your head about this." "Don't let him find any evidence." "Boss, what am I going to do then?" "I have another job for you." "Okay, let's do it." "Pops!" "Emergency!" "Our cows!" "What?" "What's happening?" "Dad, we have an emergency!" "When I gave him some water, he immediately fell to the ground in pain." "This is Hito-poison." "As I thought, it's Hito-poison, but why is it in this water?" "Dad, there's only one person who would do this." "It's them!" "Dad!" "Where are you going?" "I can't keep silent about this." "I'm going to talk to them." "Wait!" "You shouldn't go alone!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Stop!" "Someone's following us." "Hey, old man, don't you try so hard." "You're a geezer." "Are you still human, doing all this?" "I think I am." "Why do you ask?" "You killed innocent cows." "Not just the cows, but you stole the future of those children!" "Wait up!" "You talk about cows and all that, but what evidence do you have?" "You may manage not to leave any evidence, but that doesn't mean you can do anything!" "Shut up!" "You bastard!" "I hope you learn something from this, and leave that farm!" "You can't run a farm with your weak body!" "God damn it!" "Great job!" "Now everything is going to be much easier." "Cheers!" "Hey, what's up?" "You don't look like you're enjoying the night." "I don't like it." "Like what?" "Everything." "Today's job was the worst." "You, are you rebelling against us?" "What would you do if I was?" "You bastard!" "You want to go ahead?" "Tetsu!" "Gen, cut it out!" "I wanted to challenge him fair and square, one on one." "You wouldn't understand my feelings." "Looks like he's gone insane." "Never mind." "By the way, there's still that sister of the pilot left." "Don't worry." "Just one meek girl couldn't possibly do anything." "That girl must be cying day and night by now." "We found out that she fell in love with that drifter." "I see." "Excuse me for being in bed before you." "I'm exhausted from staring death in the face." "Oh, don't move and listen to me." "While I was gone, cows on the farm died from poison." "What does that have to do with me?" "I'm here to find that out." "I've no idea what you're talking about." "Oh, I see." "Then, what about this?" "This is you, isn't it?" "Where did you get that from?" "In Tokyo, there's a profession called 'Private Detective'; that's me." "That's a wonderful nail polish you have." "It's Bersenbern, made in Germany." "I was looking for the person who lost this." "You can say "Thank you."" "Don't you want to know where I found this?" "Should I tell you?" "It was from Akaiwadake Va..." "I'm sorry, but I just got a new girlfriend yesterday." "Sir!" "Tomorrow at noon, come to the crash site in Akaiwadake Valley." "I'll return something to you." "We'll talk tomorrow." "I'll be waiting for you." "Hi, thanks for coming over." "I told you that I would return some goods to you." "Well, here it is." "I think you recognize this." "I found this parachute about 1 km west of here." "Anyway, the day this plane plummeted, there was a 5 mph wind from the east." "If one parachutes out 3000m in the air, then he should land roughly 1km wset of here." "I won't beat about the bush." "On that day, you were on this plane as well!" "What's the altitude?" "Over 3000m." "We're above Akaiwadake Valley." "That's the story." "Despite the fact that you're a woman, you pulled off this big job with your flight attendant experience." "Better than any man for this job." "I knew you were going to make that choice." "Try to shoot me." "But shoot me in the heart." "If you don't finish me with one bullet, if your first shot misses, then it's you that dies." "Wanna play?" "This is a true duel." "Well, I guess I'm not going to be your next victim." "You won." "I'll come forward with my stor..." "Hey, are you all right?" "Tetsu, do you know that you failed me?" "He's still alive." "Just as I thought." "What?" "That's 'cause I used something I'm not familiar with." "I'll clean things up with this next time." "In any case, bring everyone in." "We have something to discuss." "Goro's still not back." "He'll be all right." "He's strong, no one can kill him." "But I have a bad feeling..." "Don't worry." "Even Kido's men think about the consequences, so there's a limit to what they could do." "Sis!" "Trouble!" "The stable is on fire!" "Get the hoses!" "Pump it stronger!" "Connect this too, right there!" "Dad!" "Hold on!" "If you open the door now, you'll be trampled to death!" "But we can't let them die!" "We'll save them." "Tie this over there!" "Got it!" "Now they're safe." "Calm down and try to put out the fire." "Is everyone okay?" "Misako's disappeared!" "Take care of the fire!" "It was you that killed the cows and started the fire, exactly as I thought!" "I only commit crimes with no evidence." ""Not a criminal until one's entirely convicted"" "Japanese law is well established." "Even if you try to hide what you've been doing, we all know it!" "So what?" "We took care of the loose ends." "The dead don't speak." "We're gonna finish you off, too." "But there is a way to save your life." "It totally depends on you." "Get off of me!" "I've been fond of you since the first time I saw you." "I thought you were too worthy to just kill." "Someone!" "Please help!" "Call for help if you want." "Maybe your drifter detective will come to rescue you." "Actually, we're anticipating that." "If he shows up, this time we're gonna kill him for sure." "Let's see if your plan succeeds." "Goro!" "This is the second time I've saved you." "You're prone to bad luck, I guess." "Such confidence." "But can you really save her?" "I can." "This is the end of your dynasty, too." "Here." "Do you remember that newspaper?" "It's about someone missing in the mountains." "Of course, he couldn't be found." "You disfigured that man's face, and put him in the plane in place of Mr. Nagumo." "When you crashed the plane with the help of your ex-flight attendant girl," "Mr. Nagumo was still alive." "You threatened him, and made him sign over the rights to the farm, and then..." "Well, the rest is easy." "There's a house full of murderers here." "I see." "You're a very good detective." "However, without any evidence, I'll continue to walk free." "You'd better wear some glasses..." "The evidence is right here!" "When you tried to kill me with dynamite, I found him." "He's the real President Nagumo." "Oh, and one more thing." "The bullets I found in Nagumo's and your girl's bodies were identical." "And I know they were from the gun you're holding in your hand right now." "Should we bet?" "What do you think?" "Is there still insufficient evidence to convict you?" "Get him!" "Forget who your enemy is?" "This is your little adventure!" "Our duel will be later!" "Watch out!" "You're pretty good!" "Dangerous" "All right, go around to the other side." "Goro!" "Misako!" "Are you okay?" "Take care of her." "Tetsu." "What are you doing?" "Where are you going?" "Don't leave me behind." "You're alive!" "I won't die so easily." "I still have to fight you." "True." "By the way, where's your sweetheart?" "As for her, I'm ashamed, but in that battle, we were sort of separated." "She's right here." "Thank you so much!" "What the heck is this?" "I'm not dead!" "We'll fight some other time." "Okay, don't die until then." " You too!" " I know!" "See ya!"
