"SERPENT'S PATH" "Up all night?" "No, I slept a bit." "Shall we just scout today?" "I'm fine either way." "I can always find time." "No." "Today." "We do it today." "Sure it's the right guy?" "If it's the wrong guy ..." "They're all involved anyway." "We're almost there." "Hold it a minute." "I gotta calm down." "About here?" "Emi ..." "It won't be long now." "Won't be long now." "I'll make the call." "Hello, messenger service here." "Mr. Otsuki?" "We've got a package for you ..." "But the address is illegible." "Number 2-8-6?" "Thank you." "We'll be right there." "He's home." "You ready?" "Ready." "Then put that away." "Delivery." "Mr. Otsuki?" "I need your seal." "What the fuck?" "Who the fuck!" "Who sent you?" "Miyashita, hurry!" "Who the fuck are you?" "What the fuck do you want?" "My daughter." "Murdered." "Miyashita Emi." "Eight years old." "The body was found in a field outside Hino." "Approximately a week after she died." "Sixteen stab wounds." "Right little finger and left middle finger's injured." "Both apparently prior to death." "Pronounced multiple lacerations on genitals." "Multiple epidermal and sub-epidermal hemorrhages."

"Features unrecognisable." "So what?" "What the fuck's that got to do with me?" "You killed her!" "Are you nuts?" "I don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about." "What are you guys, cops?" "Pretty complicated setup." "This all some act?" "What the fuck is this?" "My daughter!" "This place is sound proofed." "Scream your heart out, no one will hear." "I need to get going." "Time to go?" "Mr. Nijima, how can I thank you?" "I dragged you into this." "I'll take it from here." "Take it slow." "You've got plenty of time." "Yeah I'm fine, I was just scaring him." "I'll take my time killing him." "I'll stop by tomorrow." "Get some rest now." "Okay, thanks." "If this leads to this, what follows?" "Give it a try, Okebayashi." "Wow, perfect." "Okebayashi!" "No, no, no!" "That way space turns inside out and time flows backwards." "The world will f all apart." "You're not God ..." "Pay attention, this is how it works." "See?" "What happens if we combine this with duality?" "Right, exactly ..." "Andthen,this." "Hey!" "The john!" "I said I need the john!" "You listening!" "I know you're there." "Man, I'm begging." "I gotta take a crap." "Let me use the john, at least." "At least give me some paper!" "I understand how you feel." "I'm really sorry!" "But I swear I didn't have anything to do with it." "You're going to pay for misidentifying me." "Come on man." "Let's talk it over." "We can work this out." "But just let me use the john!" "You listening, you son of a bitch?" "You're gonna remember this!" "Shall I wash you?" "You'll get sick that way." "Shut up!" "Raise your ass." "You gonna feed him?" "Miyashita Emi, eight years old."

"Miyashita Tatsuo." "I'm Nijima Naomi." "Triple 13. 20, 2, 273." "273." "What was my score?" "254." "19 points difference, huh ..." "Thirty points." "183, 283 ..." "So you're Miyashita, right?" "That's right." "Then you know a guy called Hiyama, right?" "You do?" "Right." "What's your point?" "I didn't do it." "Hiyama killed her." "You're full of shit." "No, I'm not." "You were gonna sell Hiyama out." "He was after you." "I never heard anything about doing in your kid." "That stuff's not for me ... God,howawful..." "But hey, it's your own goddamn f ault." "What was that?" "Stop!" "Please!" "It wasn't me!" "I swear it wasn't me!" "Please!" "What's he talking about?" "You're the one that found him." "Hiyama did it!" "Who's Hiyama?" "You never mentioned him." "One of the old gang." "Were you going to sell him out?" "No!" "He's full of shit." "Beat a little more out of him, he'll talk." "Tell me the truth." "You were running from this guy Hitama, right?" "But I didn't sell him out." "It's a misunderstanding, I can explain." "What good are explanations." "They won't bring her back." "In any case, I can't drag you in any further." "They're the real thing." "They mean business." "What do you want?" "If you're really serious, I'll help you." "What do you want?" "What's in this for you?" "I just wanted to try something like this." "Would you rather go it alone?" "You hate me that much?" "Fine." "We're in this together then." "Right?" "Mr. Nijima." "I'm sorry." "Can you find Hiyama?" "Tell me tomorrow." "I'll come up with a plan." "You don't need to worry." "What are you doing?" "You're getting a buddy." "The only way to find out if you're telling the truth ..." "Is to bring him here." "Are you out of your mind?" "You know he's gonna kill you." "Than you'll just have to starve to death." "Get Hiyama on a golf course." "That guy's a lousy golfer." "Always hitting 'em into the trees." "What the fuck was nice about it?" "Go look for it." "Hey, find it?" "No, I can't ..." "Try over there." "Okay." "We'll go look, too." "It's right here." "Who the hell are you?" "Take that, you bastard!" "Miyashita!" "Miyashita!" "You okay?" "Over here, here." "We finally pulled it off." "So?" "What do you want?" "My daughter." "You killed her." "Huh?" "That's what he says." "No, no, no." "I never said that." " All I said was that you were gonna sell Hiyama out." " Sell out?" "I didn't." "Never even tried!" "You worked hard for me." "I appreciate that." "That's right." "Why would you want to sell me out?" "That's right." "You've got it a little wrong, Mr. Hiyama." "I heard you say "Go get Miyashita's balls."" "Miyashita's doin' just fine." "You know anyone who's survived my order "get their balls?"" "What do you say?" "The daughter got it." "Huh ..." "Otsuki,didyou drawthat picture?" "No way!" "They dragged me here ..." "And treated me like shit." "I chose this life a long time ago, I'll die when it's my turn." "Hey, Miyashita." "How'd you get hurt?" "The cripple get you?" "She's one tough watchdog." "Once she goes after something, she won't quit." "And she can't live without me." "She's bad news." "Who the hell are you?" "Let's call it a day." "The bathroom." "Hey, the bathroom!" "Don't bother." "I mean, don't bother." "Hey." "Miyashita!" "At least answer me, damnit!" "Miyashita, the bathroom!" "You better drink some." "You're not getting any water." "Mr. Nijima, I don't think you should walk around outside anymore." "I've got my job." "But what if they see you." "Then I'll run away." "Where?" "Here?" "Yeah." "What if they chase you here?" "In that case you'll help me, right?" "How's that wound?" "Much better." "I owe everything to you." "I'm sorry." "I've been meaning to say so." "Cut it out." "You're unbelievable." "Nothing gets you." "You've got guts yourself." "We'll never last this way." "We're down to a battle of wills with them." "Miyashita Emi." "Eight years old." "The body was found in a field outside Hino." "Approximately a week after death." "Sixteen stab wounds." "Right little finger ..." "Do you know this man?" "Call me if you see him, okay?" "Just a minute." "I get it." "Exactly." "Let's talk." "He's out of his mind, he is ..." "I'm just sort of along for the ride, helping out." "Truth is, I've had it." "What do you say we make a move, right about now." "Let me handle this." "Personally, . ." "I don't give a damn who killed the girl." "Actually, you guys finger a likely suspect?" "And keep your story straight." "That way, he'll buy it." "What happens to us?" "Say you're the only ones who know where he is." "I'll arrange for him to take you along as guides." "Wait for your chance and take off." "I don't want things to get any further out of hand." "It's a deal." "We never saw your f ace." "So who will you finger?" " Ariga's perfect." " Ariga?" " Know where he is?" " I know, I know." "I don't." "No go." "The story has to match." "Tell me, you fuck." "Ariga?" "Who's Ariga?" "You probably don't know him, but he exists." "A total monster." "Oh, him." "You better get it straight, Miyashita." "We told him to go after you." "Yeah, I was there." "The order was to hit you." "But that bastard Ariga, ..." "He's sick." "We'd never do anything that sick." "We all had our doubts about him." "And look what happened." "No wonder you're pissed." "We were going to deal with Ariga anyway." "We'll take you to him." "Let's get rid of the bastard and clear this up." "We know it was all a mix up." "So you're off the hook." "I'm sorry about your daughter." "We'll make up for it." "Anyway we can." "Let's settle this." "Now you two settle." "Only one of you goes." "Let go, Otsuki!" "I'm going, I'm going!" "Let go, Otsuki." "I'm the one who told him about Ariga." "Let me go ..." "You're sticking to the plan." "I'm your only hope." "Emi, it won't be long now." "This time, it's the right guy." "There should be an apartment back there." "What the fuck." "That bastard Otsuki." "A f ake address." "He was planning to pull a f ast one." "What are you gonna do?" "You guys know." "I didn't do it." "Right?" "What do we do?" "Track down Ariga." "Where are we headed?" "Otsuki's place." "Oh ..." "Did you hear that?" "No." "Messenger service." "Mr. Otsuki?" "We've got a package for you, but we can't read the address." "That's 2-4-6?" "Understood." "I'll deliver it now." "Stay in the driver's seat." "Anything happens, you split." "Forget about me." "I can't abandon you." "Than let's go together." "No ..." "I'm fine alone." "You take off if things heat up, okay?" "No." "I can't!" "I can't do that." "I'm staying." "I'll wait for you." "Delivery." "Ariga?" "Where's Ariga?" "Where is he?" "You Ariga?" "We're here to help." "Mr. Nijima?" "Mr. Nijima?" "He'll kill you." "He's crazy." "You listen to me." "You're not Ariga." "Got that?" "This guy says he knows where to find Ariga." "I know, I know." "Man, they're going crazy." "Otsuki disappeared, they squeezed me for where he is." "I don't know shit." "Hiyama's disappeared too, right?" "Yeah, right." "That really made them ballistic." "Oh my God, you guys?" "Where's Ariga?" "Um, where ..." "Call him." "You've got a cellular, right?" "No ..." "But he won't be home anyway." "Ariga's not home, huh." "No, he's not home." "So who are you?" "Who are you?" "I wonder ..." "Ariga killed her?" "That's right." "Ariga did it?" "Yes." "Finally found him!" "Right." "Call him." "You tried calling him, right?" " Call him?" " Call him." " I don't think he's in now." " Then where is he?" " I don't know." " Liar!" "Stop, please!" "Stop, please, stop ..." "Time for me to go." "Time to go, huh?" "So, the next problem." "First this, then this." "What happens here?" "You've got ten minutes." "The clue is analytical theorem." "What's up?" "Sorry to break into class." "There's something I have to say to you." "What?" "What happened to him?" "Don't worry, I didn't kill him." "Says he'll talk to you." "Must be your winning personality." "Remember." "I didn't take off this afternoon." "The gunshot freaked me out, but I didn't run." "I owe everything to you." "I was pleased." "It's all clear now." "I never dreamed I'd get this f ar." "I owe it all to you." "One last push." "We'll settle this thing tomorrow." "Finally." "That's all I had to say." "Done already?" "Wow, perfect." "What a good girl." "I need to get back." "What should I do?" "You've run out of options." "The cripple's the problem?" "The watch dog." "Lure her out." "I'll tell you where later." "You ditching me?" "How many have you hit?" "Mr. Ariga?" "Oh no, we don't think that." "We were worried about you." "Where are you?" "Okay." "We'll be right over." "He's in the f actory." "It won't be long now." "Won't be long ..." "It won't be long ..." "Mr. Nijima." "Mr. Nijima." "Why here?" "They filmed your daughter here, too?" "Emi ..." "Is that right?" "I don't know." "In this place?" "Hiyama and Otsuki did her." " This is the place?" " I know nothing!" "Miyashita Emi."

"I owe everything to you." "Now you're the only one left." "Your last meal." "You're joking, right?" "You were all in the same business, right?" "No." "I was just in sales." "I didn't even know what was on the tapes." "You just sold them." "What happened to me happened to you." "That's why you helped me, right?" "We both got our revenge, right?" "It's a tape of your daughter's murder." "You do wanna watch it?" "Stop." "Stop it." "Stop it, stop it." "Stop it, stop it!" "Miyashita ..." "I watched it." "Why." "Why me?" "I hate you the most."
