"You took your time." "Did you run out of energy?" "Idiot!" "I just ran down from the 28th floor!" "The camera's lop-sided." "Make sure you don't crash." "I know!" "Why'd you drop your speed?" "So I won't scrape the bottom." "This car is really low to the ground you know!" "Another 300m to go." "Raise the speed by another 15km." "It's coming up." "It flashed!" "Did you see it?" "Up front."

"Cut the call!" "Thank you for your time." "Could you please act as my legal advisor in place of Shiga-sensei?" "It would be my pleasure" "Thank you so much!" "if you could excuse me." "Hey!" "You think I'm just going to let this pass?" "the person responsible for the case!" "Isn't it just great that a person like me is around?" "Even if you hadn't shown up- -I'm sorry I have to head to the courts for my next case." "If you'll excuse me." "Alright." "GOAAAAAAL!" "From this call log we have here we know that Yamamoto-san was at his home until midnight." "Getting to the crime site when the crime occured at 12:20am as we can see from this video would have required him to drive faster than 120km/h." "If he had actually driven at such a speed the speed camera would have been alerted as such and a photo like this would have been sent to the police department." "was never sent." "Why would that be the case?" "Because he never drove at such a speed. at 12:20am" "is absolutely impossible." "If they hadn't declared him as non-guilty everything would have been a huge waste."

"At lunch I returned to the office and when I turned on the TV the news was showing that President Hanawa had been killed." "A couple days later..." "Honey...  the police have shown up" "The police came and asked about the case." "You went to the station voluntarily and then you were arrested?" "under the desk of the office they found the murder weapon in a bag." "I have no memory of doing it though! you fell asleep and have absolutely no memory of what happened?" "Even though I said that the police were really insistent about it. they wouldn't believe me." "They interrogated me every day." "They found your finger prints on the murder weapon." "They saw you on the security cameras at President Hanawa's home." "Saying you have no memory means nothing." "I'm telling you that night I fell asleep in my office!" "Can anyone confirm that?" "I'm sorry but..." "Even your family has said that because you've committed such a crime they do not care what happens to you." "That can't be..." "It is because you committed this crime that your child is in trouble and cannot go to school!" "Having even my family doubt me..." "It's too much to bare!" "I didn't do it though!" "Please believe me!" "Have you made any progress on the case?" "Who knows." "I left everything to Miyama." "So you've not working with him?" "If you personally went to scout him that means he's pretty good at the job right?" "I'll keep updated and check up on him soon." "This is all we have so far..." "This is before he's been indicted after all." "If the prosecutors don't make a request for it we'll only get the barest amount of evidence."

"A knife was found in his office with Akagi-san's finger prints and the person found in the footage of the security cameras was wearing a hat and jacket that are said to have belonged to Akagi-san." "These are the videos that were released to investigators." "Um..." "Eh?" "Could you..." "My name is Fujino." "This is after the crime took place." "This is all the footage they had?" "There are two more." "Hmm...." "Something's off..." "I'm going out." "Where?" "To the crime scene." "To the crime scene?" "!" "Yeah." "Just judging from these pieces of evidence I think it's obvious that Akagi-san committed the crime." "The truth is pretty clear. if there were 100 people you would get 100 different "truths" happening according to each of them." "There is only one." "let's go!" "It's past my work hours so I'll be going home." "Then how about..." "I have kids back home." "Twin girls." "I have to pick them up from their day care so I'll also be going home too." "If only I had a wife and kid waiting for me back home.." "Then let's go Akashi-san." "See you tomorrow." "See you tomorrow." "Wait!" "we don't need to do further investigations right?" "No matter how you look at it he's already been charged." "I see..." "Can I ask you something?" "What?" "Did you really turn down the 30 million contract?" "Yep." "I don't know how long I'm going to stay here after all." "But I still get paid every month." "That's not the point!" "Ah!" "Don't surprise me like that." "What? but I have my own beliefs as a lawyer which is why I came here." "Beliefs? did you find anything?" "security cameras are placed in positions where you can easily see people's faces right?" "That's why I figured there might have been another camera installed that caught his face... but there isn't." "That'd be hard to believe normally." "There sure aren't a lot of people around." "what?" "there sure aren't a lot of people around!" "you're right" "Even more so when it's later at night" "We won't be getting any eye-witness accounts then." "some things I need you to do for tomorrow." "First..." "Make a transcription of my investigation notes." "please confirm all the corners and positioning of the security cameras at the Hanawa house right." "buy a map of Setagaya." "And buy me some candy!" "Candy?" "Buy your own candy!" "I see..." "So the couch that Akagi-san fell asleep on was this one?" "Yes." "I see." "Hey...!" "Is there anyone that can vouch for Akagi-san being here on the night the crime took place?" "Unfortunately everyone had already gone home by 8pm." "How was Akagi-san before you left?" "Tomonaga made a visit." "He said that they would cutting their contracts with us so he wasn't in a good mood." "Tomonaga-san canceled contracts." "Bad mood." "Is this Akagi-san's medicine?" "it's for his blood pressure." "noon and night." "he's quite meticulous about it." "Who knows that he takes medicine?" "All the staff know." "I see." "Do you remember anything else from that day?" "that night there was a fire in the neighborhood and a number of firetrucks showed up." "I heard it was pretty bad." "Where was the fire?" "Not even 50m away." "Because of this it's been tough for him to go back to school." "He knows that his father was arrested for murder charges." "As a parent..." "I don't know what I should do." "Ah!" "Are you okay?" "I'm sorry." "Um..." "He's saying that he didn't commit the crime right?" "Please!" "do whatever you can to help him!" "Please!" "Please!" "Are you Tomonaga-san?" "Yes." "At the time Akagi-san was very angry." "He raised his voice and used some force on me." "Could you be more specific?" "I say he used some force nothing physical." "I was very surprised about what happened to the president... but I also felt quite bad for Akagi-san" "Why is that the case? and I've worked with him for a long time so I know him quite well." "To do something like that..." "It was on March 20." "on that day we got called out." "How many cars?" "About 15?" "The sirens were on?" "Of course." "They would've caused quite a disruption." "What about you?" "It's Tachibana." "Right." "You don't need to go home?" "When I was doing civil law I was even more busy so you don't need to worry." "Okay." "You want some?" "I'm fine." "Okay." "Now then..." "Let's go over the testimonies we've gathered." "This place is pretty cramped." "Spacious but..." "Stuff is in the way." "This won't do." "I'll ask one more time." "Are you sure we can use this place?" "I'll say it one more time." "If the door is unlocked it's fine isn't it?" "I don't like this..." "It has to be this." "What are you talking about?" "That night there was a fire and a lot of firetrucks stopped by." "Not waking up despite the sirens being so close is strange." "So doesn't that mean Akagi-san definitely wasn't in the office at the time?" "There's one other option." "He was sleeping so deeply he wouldn't have woken up despite the noise." "You mean he took sleeping pills?" "More like someone gave them to him." "How?" "Akagi-san had to take pills for his blood pressure every day." "If someone knew that they could easily switch the medicine for something else. who is the person pretending to be Akagi-san in the camera footage?" "The camera's didn't catch the persons face..." "Akashi?" "I have something I need you to prepare by morning tomorrow." "first thing tomorrow morning." "Sada-sensei!" "Ever since you moved things have been crazy over here!" "I can finally let my abilities shine." "That Miyama guy." "He's doing some interesting things you know." "This one." "Camera B needs to move two more degrees..." "This way?" "Two degrees?" "Two degrees." "make it level." "Level...?" "it shouldn't be facing up but down." "Okay-Ow..." "Is this level?" "Yeah." "This is impressive." "What are you doing?" "We're modeling out the actual layout of the security cameras outside the Hanawa house where the crime took place." "Interesting." "Huh?" "Good morning." "I'm borrowing this place for the moment." "Could you tell me before doing so?" "What's going on?" "Who's using my room like this?" "." "Miyama-sensei!" "we'll clean up once as soon as we're done." "I don't remember approving this." "I needed your approval?" "Of course!" "let him do it this one time." "But this..." "You're monitoring his progress right?" "And it's running." "I just need to make sure the cameras don't catch my face right?" "Piece of cake." "going through!" "Go ahead." "Okay." "we saw your face." "Seriously?" "Seriously." "Eh?" "!" "One more time then!" "going through!" "Go ahead." "Alright... we saw you." "Huh?" "that one?" "Yeah." "One more time." "going through!" "Go ahead." "Okay." "Keep your face down." "I know!" "we saw you." "It was you wasn't it?" "!" "going through." "It should be closer to "Miyama!" "Going through!" "First you need to climb over the gate... keep your face down and have your back face the camera..." "While covering your face head to the back... he's good." "You're still in the clear." "It's completely different." "It's because I also did it." "This is the zone that hasn't been tested though." "There's no way he'll be able to do it." "As you open the door cover your face... how long does he plan to do this for?" "After that move to the back..." "Break it." "Perfect." "If you try you can do it." "Did I do it?" "It was completely the same." "It really isn't natural." "For the criminal to enter in through the window without their face being filmed and then they would have had to practice many times to make it possible." "I'm going to go have a talk with the prosecutor for this case." "Could you give me approval to do so?" "Do as you like" "It's an honor to finally meet the famous Miyama-san." "why have you come for today?" "Why did you lie to Akagi-san and tell him that his family didn't care about him?" "What are you talking about?" "Were you going to lie to him until he confessed?" "Is that what you came here to say?" "I'm a busy man you know." "We looked at the footage from the security cameras." "There is a possibility that Akagi-san was given sleeping pills and forced in to a drug-induced sleep and someone else could have pretended to be Akagi-san." "I would like you to investigate such a possibility." "caused by Akagi." "Just take a look at these documents first." "I don't need to." "who had fallen ill due to the shock of her husbands murder has finally recovered her health and provided her own details of what happened the day of the crime." "Hanawa's wife saw him." "Akagi." "10min after the crime occured" "In the underpass" "She said that Akagi passed by her wearing a green jacket 0)}" "0)}" " Akagi-san?" "She even called out to him." "We will not remove the charges placed on Akagi." "Now if you could please..." "The testimony from the wife huh..." "Miyama-sensei." "He's an admirable guy." "I guess the ruling has already been decided then... 355.714)\i1}(Indicted)" "Tachibana speaking." "Eh?" "hello." "Hello." "How's her condition?" "She's doing okay." "She fainted due to overwork and fell down the stairs." "Where is her son?" "It's okay if you want to cry you know." "They say boys aren't supposed to cry though." "Your dad said that?" "I want to see my dad!" "Why can't I see him?" "Do you think you can hold on for a bit longer Yuki-kun?" "I'll do anything." "Just give me back my dad." "please save my dad!" "I will." "I promise." "What?" "Does he want some candy?" "Think about the situation a bit more!" "I see. stop looking for the possibility that the broken contract wasn't the cause for the murder." "The truth still isn't clear." "They've already collected evidence against Akagi!" "I haven't finished my investigations." "You don't seriously think that we can turn things around do you?" "I think the actual truth is more important than what's just written in reports. then you should know that 99.9% of those convicted with criminal charges in Japan are found guilty." "I know." "That's because the prosecutors only convict those whom they're absolutely certain are guilty." "so they just blindly trust in whatever is reported by those prosecutors. but whatever story the prosecutors has come up with." "That's why you should just give up!" "That's exactly the thing an ex-prosecutor would think." "But that would mean us attorneys are virtually powerless." "That's why I'm telling you to find a character witness so at least his sentence can be less severe." "As lawyers we need to think about what our clients can gain." "At this rate you'll just run out of time! but what I want more than that is to find out the truth." "Finding out the truth is the job of an attorney." "No." "Thinking about what your clients can gain is the job of an attorney." "It has nothing to do about whether they are guilty or not!" "I just want to know what happened." "I also don't care if the person is guilty or not." "I guess we agree on that then!" "Shut up!" "Once someone has been convicted there is a 99.9% chance they will be" "Even if the conviction rate is 99.9% though that doesn't mean the entire truth can be found within those numbers." "There's a chance that the actual truth might be hidden within the remaining 0.01%" "Am I right?" "Now then." "Letting a guy like that in this company is going to cost us!" "Really?" "I think he had some good points though." "Do you think we can win then?" "There's no way." "Not if you don't work with him." "And I have no intention of doing so!" "What are we going to do now then?" "The job doesn't change." "If we find any new pieces of evidence we investigate it." "From this distance you can definitely see their face..." "I've had it!" "I didn't need to run 5 times for that!" "I need to check all the angles with which the wife may have seen Akagi-san from." "Then..." "YOU RUN!" "Is the wife's testimony really true...?" "Okay." "Next one." "Here." "Huh?" "Next run while looking at the wall the whole time." "We're back." "Thanks for all the hard work today." "Did he work you pretty hard?" "Yeah." "Only 4 days until the trial." "Isn't this a difficult one?" "Yeah." "Are you going to give up?" "We still haven't found out what really happened." "I see..." "I need to go pick up my kids so..." "That's all for me today." "See you tomorrow." "See you tomorrow." "Miyama-sensei." "It seems the reason behind maxV's sudden growth may have been due to illegal labour practices such as under-paying and overworking their employees." "there were many companies that had their contracts cut." "That means a lot of people were angry at him." "It's past your work hours." "Why are you giving this to me now? I thought some things were a bit off." "Thanks for your hard work." "Thanks for your hard work." "What's a way we can quickly get our hands on the internal affairs of maxV within 4 days before the trial...?" "It isn't impossible." "Huh? he'd have the information to you by tomorrow morning." "Now if you'd excuse me" "That's what I need to do..." "I have to thank you regarding the Ginza 4-chome properties." "All the legal matters have been dealt with." "Here is your tomato juice." "Thank you." "Could you add this to Sada-sensei's tab?" "Good evening." "I have something to ask of you." "I want to know about the internal affairs of maxV as soon as possible." "Could you look in to them for me?" "do it yourself." "I guess I'll have to resort to this then... look at this." "The other day in front of the court house you had a minor collision with me." "This is an eye-witness report of the event." "It's stated that a failure to report this event to the police is a violation of the law." "If this got out your reputation would be brought into question." "Are you trying to blackmail me?" "You really are something aren't you. so I made a copy and saved it to use as leverage for later." "It is quite a leverage..." "I thought it would come in handy at some point" "So I made a copy and saved it to use as leverage for later." "Kid." "Don't think I'm a pushover." "As expected of Sada-sensei." "But I'm a pretty persistent guy." "My car is parked in the parking lot over there." "Bring it to the office for me tomorrow." "Huh?" "Drive safe!" "What are you doing?" "Including you I have a lot of enemies." "It was thanks to YOU that Kawabata construction was able to buy the property at Ginza!" "Thanks a lot!" "Huh?" "seriously?" "This..."

"But he's a good father who used to make toys for our daughter." "You have a daughter?" "she's on homestay right now." "Homestay?" "Where?" "America." "It's part of a school program." "What are you doing here?" "!" "Are you eating?" "!" "Thank you for the food!" "Why are you eating here?" "!" "Because of this." "What?" "your key." "You..." "I heard you've become the head of the criminal lawyer department." "It's really busy work and our work load has increased lately." "He explained everything to me." "I'll prepare your breakfast now." "Don't think you can get free meals here all the time." "Please help me." "I'm having nothing to do with this case." "Please!" "I refuse!" "Now get out of my house!" "I guess appealing to your emotions won't work either." "I guess that's Sada-sensei for you." "I didn't want to have to do this but..." "Then get out!" "I got this from Madarame-sensei." "It's a proof of what's going to be released in the weekly tabloids tomorrow." "Sada Atsuhiro throws a challenge at his past prosecution days!" ")" "this is delicious!" "we really can't back down." "If anything it might shut the prosecutors up." "we're counting on you." "Dig up anything you can about the internal affairs are maxV." "You'll need approval from Uchida-san to access the Touyou databanks." "Understood." "I heard that Sada-sensei finally involved himself in the case." "How did you manage that?" "Well... looks like you're working hard!" "It's been tough ever since we've taken over all your cases! ever since Sada-sensei got moved I've been terribly busy every day." "it's almost time." "We should go." "if you'd excuse us." "This way please!" "Ah..." "I just want to rainmaker him." "Like the movie?" "The one by Coppola?" "the wrestling move!" "Want me to try it on you?" "it's fine" "So what are you we doing now?" "I need to organize my thoughts." "If you're going to turn could you tell me beforehand?" "Here?" "Here." "Welcome!" "welcome back!" "I'm home." "Welcome back?" "I'm home?" "Huh?" "welcome!" "Thank you." "who is this?" "What?" "Huh?" "What should I do...?" "Eh?" "Bro?" "What's wrong bro?" "whatever." "I'll give this to you." "The culprit wore Akagi-san's jacket and snuck into the home of the victim." "They knew the location of the cameras before hand." "Akagi-san has no memories during the time the crime was committed." "It's possible that he was made to take sleeping pills." "The victim's wife says she saw Akagi-san 10min after the crime occurred." "The chance of her mistaking him for someone else is low." "They found the murder weapon at Akagi's office." "Veterans don't die they just disappear." "Here is your potato salad!" "It's mixed with squid ink." "I'm surprised though." "This is the first time Hiroto has brought a girl home." "Oh really?" "Hey." "Hey!" "Talking to him is impossible right now." "When he cooks he's organizing his thoughts." "Does he live above this restaurant?" "Yep." "Are you staying the night?" "no." "Tonight or any night after." "No huh?" "100%." "One Hundred." "he's done." "It looks delicious!" "Itadakimasu." "307.714)\4cH0E5F9E}Miyama's homemade:" "Soba dumplings and deep-fried potato" "Maybe I should sit too?" "So?" "It's really good!" "You sure look happy..." "Shut up!" "what are we going to do?" "The trial is in three days you know." "Just eat your dinner." "You don't need to walk me home you know." "The tunnel that leads to the station?" "a lot of stuff happens there." "Walk her back." "Is this area really that bad?" "Everywhere in the world is dangerous." "what's your plan for the trial?" "Still thinking about it." "It really is kind of scary." "What is it." "STOP!" "Why'd you change it?" "What?" "The case." "give it back!" "Hey-Wait a minute!" "What's different?" "Eh?" "Something is different." "When you want to make a call... just tell-a-phone!" "this is my own terrible phone-related pun.]" "That wasn't even close to being funny." "Hey wait!" "Give my phone back!" "Get home yourself." "You're the worst!" "Oh my and Garfunkel!" "which is a pun on "Oh my god" and "Simon and Garfunkel"]" "I found it!" "The truth hidden in that 0.01%." "280.286)}(Investigation Report)" "I did too." "Sada-sensei." "You were caught by the papers." "I hope you haven't gotten rusty being away from the court rooms for so long." "I'm praying for that too." "We will now begin the examination of the witness at the prosecutors request." "Could the witness please take your place at the witness stand." "Hanawa Kouki was murdered correct?" "Yes." "At the time did you see anyone?" "Akagi-san." "What was Akagi-san's behaviour like at the time?" "When I called out "Akagi-san" he became panicked and ran." "And what was Akagi-san wearing at the time?" "He was wearing a green jacket." "The defense may now begin their cross-examination of the witness." "Thank you." "What colour do you see this as?" "Excuse me?" "What colour do you see this as?" "Green." "Thank you. what clothes did you say Akagi-san was wearing?" "He was wearing a green jacket." "Is there any chance you may have been mistaken?" "I've met the man many times during company gatherings so there is no way I would have been mistaken." "What was the distance between you and Akagi-san when you passed by each other?" "Around 1 metre." "but what is your prescription?" "1.0 correct?" "Yes." "The defense requests for exhibit number 17 to be brought in as evidence." "Please look at this." "This was a photo that was taken at one of those company gatherings you spoke of right?" "Yes." "am I correct?" "That is correct." "what colour jacket is Akagi-san wearing?" "Objection." "Redundant questioning." "your response?" "The question I asked before was in regards to the colour of the jacket she saw in the underpass." "This question is in regards to the jacket worn at the company gathering." "It is not redundant." "the defense may continue." "What colour jacket is Akagi-san wearing in this photo?" "Green." "Please look carefully." "It is green." "You are not mistaken?" "No." "I see. you saw Akagi-san wearing the same jacket that he wore in this photo." "You've met Akagi-san many times now and there is no way you would have been mistaken." "Is this correct?" "How many times do I have to say it!" "am I correct?" "It was that green jacket!" "I was not mistaken!" "Your honour. is that okay?" "You may proceed" "If you could please." "Akashi going through!" "Akagi-san!" "Please stop the video here." "Understood." "This was a video I took to confirm the circumstances in which the witness passed by Akagi-san in the underpass." "Were the circumstances by which you spotted Akagi-san the same as in this video?" "Yes." "When you passed by Akagi-san you noticed his jacket and called out to him." "Yes" "Huh?" "That's strange." "Excuse me." "Hm?" "What colour jacket is the person in this video wearing?" "Black." "it's black isn't it?" "It is black." "what colour did you say it was again?" "it's black!" "continue playback." "It's green!" "The defense requests that exhibit number 21 be brought in as evidence." "This is the jacket that we just saw in the video." "They've been switched out now but at the time of the incident when the witness passed by Akagi-san in the underpass it was lit with sodium vapour lamps. under the lighting of those lamps as black. the witness could not have realized that the jacket she saw was green." "why has the witness said that the black jacket she saw was green?" "That is because she already knew beforehand that she would be passing someone wearing a green jacket." "She made sure to pass through the underpass at a specific time when a person wearing a green jacket would pass through it so she could use that as evidence" "in order to frame Akagi-san as the culprit." "Objection." "The defense is merely speaking his own opinions." "Sustained." "Please rephrase your statement as a question. we cannot declare that Akagi-san was at the scene of the crime." "The defense has no further questions." "Would the prosecution like to do a final examination of the witness?" "You said you saw Akagi-san's face did you not?" "The prosecution rests its case." "we would like to end the examination of the witness." "Would the witness please return to their seat." "Your honour." "I'd like to request for an examination of one more piece of evidence." "What evidence would that be?" "Evidence that proves Akagi-san had an alibi." "There is a written report stating that traces of sleeping pills were found in Akagi-san after testing that I would like to be examined as evidence." "I also know who posed as Akagi-san." "Who was it?" "Is it okay for me to say it?" "go ahead." "They're sitting right in the first row of the gallery." "It was you wasn't it?" "Tomonaga-san." "What?" "!" "Sada-sensei." "What is your basis for this claim?" "The wife has no motive!" "the wife has filed a report against president Hanawa for domestic violence." "I have testimonies from her friends." "these are the results from an internal investigation done on the company." "You can read them later." "Director Tomonaga used money from maxV to cover up for his failed investments and a large amount of expenditures was revealed to be unaccounted for." "President Hanawa found this out. the president has discovered Tomonaga's foul play and had claims filed against him by his wife for domestic violence." "These two circumstances let to them acting as accomplices." "Director Tomonaga was about the same height as Akagi-san and he had disagreed with the president about the contract cancellations." "there is the motive." "He posed as Akagi-san in order to shift the blame on to him." "Both of them probably thought they couldn't pass up a chance like this." "This was a good warm up to get the rust of my shoulders." "Thank you." "The charges for the current case have been lifted and we would like to express our sincerest apologies for what has occurred." "Despite having insufficient evidence we called charges on Akagi-san." "The need to remove such charges shows a terrible failure on our part." "Your duties have become much heavier now that you have tarnished the reputation of us prosecutors." "I will not be so forgiving should you make any further mistakes." "I am terribly sorry." "Otomo-san." "Oh." "Sada-kun?" "Of course." "I'm beginning to regret it even more that we weren't able to get past you." "Who is this." "He's one of the attorneys working under me." "this is Tachibana." "my name is Otomo." "Is this our first time meeting?" "If we've met before I apologize." "you've gotten soft." "If you'll excuse me." "You really helped me out this time." "Thank you." "welcome home!" "Yuki!" "Welcome home!" "Thank god!" "Yuki was a very good boy you know!" "Miyama Hiroto is an interesting guy isn't he?" "Could you please not let something like this leak out again?" "You suspect me of this?" "I just wouldn't put it past you good job out there." "Would you like a candy?" "of course not!" "You're so grumpy I figured it was because you weren't getting enough sugar" "Eh?" "whenever someone wins I give them a handshake." "I'll pass." "just take it!" "It's a grape candy." "22)}[T/N:" "The grape candy is called "budou-tou" which sounds similar to "omedetou" = congratulations]" "Did you two just shake hands?" "Apparently it's a custom of his." "He didn't shake hands with me..." "Doesn't that just mean you didn't do enough?" "you know that?" "Do you want some candy?" "I'll slingblade you." "What is that?" "Ow!" "That hurt..." "You are really strong..."
