" December 10, 1968 Fuchu City, Tokyo" "MPD to all stations." "Incident reported behind Fuchu Prison." "I repeat." "MPD to all stations." "Incident reported... 45 years ago, on December 10, 1968, a man disguised as a police officer carried out a heist that would leave a mark in the crime history of the Showa era." "Suspect is a young man in his 20s, wearing a leather jacket." "Wearing a white helmet, hair description none." "Stolen car is black, license plate TAMA 5 HA66-48." "Who is good, who is evil?" "We would soon find out that we, ourselves, and have to make that judgment." "The 300-million yen robbery remains unsolved to this day." " November 6, 2013" "You are completely surrounded." "Give up and come out!" "Suspect confirmed!" "You can't escape, Kurokouchi-kun." "Furthermore, you're in Sawatari Sensei's vacation home." "You're guilty of trespassing as well." "If you have a gun, put it down immediately and come out." "If he does have a gun... it's that gun, isn't it?" "Captain, get ready to raid." "If the need arises, I authorize you to fire." " Kurokouchi-kun!" " Excuse me..." "Won't you allow me to go persuade him?" "No, that's too dangerous." "He's the suspect in the murder of Deputy Chief Goto and Police Sergeant Shima." "Here they are!" " The day before" " November 5" "Bingo!" "In regards to that, I'm partly responsible too." "How are you responsible?" "Well, uh..." "All right." "Seike, give it a shot." "Are you sure she'll be okay by herself?" "Seike-san!" "You have your gun, right?" "Yes, I have it here." "No... you've got to take that with you..." " How's it going?" " It's at a standstill." "I've directed the Mobile Unit to get ready to raid, but before we do that, Seike went to persuade him to surrender." "Seike-kun went?" "Hurry up and come in." "That gun... it's the one you used to shoot Goto-san and Shima-san, isn't it?" "Kurokouchi!" "Come in." "I won't let anyone get close to the truth behind the 300-million yen robbery." "It's just a matter of time before Kurokouchi's arrested." "Everything's going as planned." "Rain wasn't in the plan, though." "Not in the plan?" "Why did it end up like this?" "Why are you locking yourself in?" "And in Sawatari-san's vacation home, of all places." "Were you planning to hide that gun here?" "Was the person who reported this" "Sawatari?" "Yes." "I told you before that I might get killed by him, remember?" "That's why I was aiming for a come-from-behind upset." "What do you mean by that?" "What happened between you and Sawatari-san after that?" "After that..." "Sawatari Sensei, do you know the names of these missing detectives?" "Yes." "As I recall, they're Deputy Chief Goto and" "Police Sergeant Shima." "I believe Inspector Kurokouchi of the Prefectural Police knows a lot more about that matter." "Inspector Kurokouchi?" " Is this Inspector Kurokouchi..." " I'm in trouble." "I... might get killed." "After all, I did delve into all kinds of things and got him arrested." "I'm gonna get killed too~." "I don't think even he will go that far..." "I'm sure he will." "It's a piece of cake for him!" "How many people who had something to do with him already died?" "Tell me." "Kanemoto Mami-san, who was strangled to death 8 years ago, and the web designer who found out about that crime, Touyama Soji-san's family of three." "And Goda-san and Hashimoto-san who had a hand in that crime." "Plus Hashimoto-san's wife and son." "Hori-san, who killed them, and his father, Headquarters Chief Dojima." "10 people as stated above." "Generally, cor~rect." "And, what about your father?" "How did he die?" "While pursuing a suspect..." "He was killed in the line of duty." "Killed in the line of duty, huh?" "Didn't Sawatari know your father well too?" "You know, in connection with the 300-million yen robbery." " Is that right..." " Anyway," "I don't want to be on that list of victims, even if it kills me." "Oh, if it kills me, it's the same thing." "Gotta think of a way I won't get killed." "A way I won't..." "Excuse me..." "Hello?" "House search?" "Tomorrow?" "All right." "You mean house search" "Goto and Shima?" "They're gonna do it tomorrow?" "Apparently." "That's it!" " Uh... was my father murdered?" " Sorry, but I'm busy now." " Where are you going?" " To see Sawatari and apologize." "And so, did you really go and apologize?" "What?" "Knowing you, you had something up your sleeve again, didn't you?" "That's what brought on this situation..." "Who wants to die?" "No one does." " 2 days ago, dusk" "Please spare me!" "Anything but my life!" "I know very well as to why you're angry." "Thanks to you, while I was imprisoned," "I had time to read books at my leisure." "Chinese Torture History of Brutal Executions" "T-torture..." "Brutal executions...?" "Chinese torture officials apparently studied how long they should prolong the agony." "In other words, ways to make people suffer as long as they can before they die." "Uh... um, actually, today..." "I came to propose a good idea." "I realize it's brash of me to say this, but even though you've been released, you're still in the midst of scandal." "So?" "S-so..." "What do you think about having Goto and Shima, who are being treated as missing, take the blame for the crime you committed 8 years ago?" "And?" "Well, um... the thing is, tomorrow," "I understand the guys from the Police will search the homes of Goto and Shima..." "Oh... so here's my plan." "First, I'll sneak into their homes tonight, and and hide the same type of school uniform worn by" "Kanemoto Mami, who you killed, in Goto's place." "And in Shima's place too, I'll leave a photo of Touyama Soji, who you hired someone to kill." "Then, wonder of wonders, the evidence will be found, and by tomorrow, before you know it, those two will take your place as the real culprit!" "What about fingerprints and DNA?" "This is where my buddy from the Crime Lab enters the picture." " Crime lab?" " Yes, Sir!" "If Kanemoto Mami's DNA and Goto and Shima's fingerprints are found on that school uniform as a result of my friend's forensics analysis, it would prove conclusively that those two committed the crime." " And so?" " Yes, Sir!" "Then, not only will your suspicions be cleared, but if we act now, you'll get the added benefit of being regarded as the pitiable victim" " who was falsely arrested." " So?" "Yes, Sir!" "I will never, for the life of me, mention the 300-million yen robbery again." "I swear I won't even delve into it or snoop around." "I won't take it to my grave either!" " You should take it to your grave." " Yes, Sir!" "I'll take to my grave." " I don't trust you." " Please trust me!" "Then... as proof that you won't betray me, let's have you put insurance on it." "What do you mean by insurance?" "Where did you bury Goto and Shima after you killed them?" "Actually, I never said I killed them..." "Where did you bury them?" "And so you gave in easily and told Sawatari-san where the bodies were buried?" "If you hadn't told him, this wouldn't have happened..." "I'm regretting it." "Regretting?" "I should've got rid of everyone who knew" "I killed Goto and Shima." "I'm regretting that I didn't." "Listen." "You're just going to see what's going on in there." "Don't shoot even by mistake." " Yes, hello?" " You're offside." "Step back." "Step back!" "That was a warning." "I'll aim next time." "Aw, were you so startled you leaked again?" "A little..." "Seike's safe." "So he does have a gun." "Kurokouchi!" "I told you that I'll make sure I put an end to those steeped in evil!" "Shut up, you old fart." "After you went to see Sawatari-san, what happened that made things turn out this way?" "That's..." " 2 days ago" "Hey, Sawa-chan." "Actually, I need a once in a lifetime favor from you." "Oh... so you're in General Affairs?" "Sorry, I'll call you back later." "Yes, I asked to be rehired." "I felt uneasy with just the pension." "I understand." "Mako-chan, if you're so inclined I can introduce you to my boss." "You know, at that place." "By that place, you mean Public Security, right?" "Public Security's probably out of the question." " You..." " Because, you know," " General Affairs Division" " TAKAHASHI HIDEO among the former Public Security officials is Sawatari Sensei who we arrested by mistake, right?" "Mako-chan, let's have dinner sometime." "Yes, definitely, in the near future." "Does that man with Public Security know Sawatari, too?" "Like Chief Dojima who committed suicide." "What are you sniffing around now?" "Jeez, I said I'd call back..." "Excuse me for a minute." "Hello?" "Yes, of course." "How did it go?" "The evidence was planted safely in their respective homes." "Headquarters got a call from Sawatari a little while ago." "Sawatari's saying that you told him where Goto and Shima are buried." "Is that true?" " Um..hello.?" " Good bye." "What the hell's going on!" "Don't tell me you..." "I know nothing." "I tell you, I know nothing." "Why, there's no reason for me to kill them." "Oh, I just remembered something urgent." "Here, condolence money." "Gotta hurry, gotta hurry..." "It was you after all, Kurokouchi!" "Surrender quietly!" "In short, you were betrayed by Sawatari-san." "Please hand over the gun and surrender, Kurokouchi-san." "What happened to Goto-san and Shima-san was self-defense." "I'm at fault too for failing to report it." "If I do that, you're gonna end up in the slammer too." "It can't be helped." "Hey, listen." "Why don't you think of a way you can let me escape with that smart head of yours." "Unfortunately, there's no way out for you anymore." "That's because yesterday..." " Yesterday morning" "I'm pretty sure they're Deputy Chief Goto and Shima-kun." "They were both probably shot to death." "Here is the bullet hole." "I see." "The Identification Team will expand the area and search for any other evidence." "Got it, Team Leader." "He's Superintendent Inspector Yakushiji now." "It's all right." "I'm counting on you guys." "Team Leader?" "Oh..." "Superintendent Inspector used to work in the Identification Division." "Identification Division?" "If we're to believe Sawatari's story," "Kurokouchi, who knew that the bodies were here, most likely killed these two." "Put all your effort into finding Kurokouchi and other evidence!" "I presume that means the DNA and fingerprints turned up exactly as I planned then, right?" "Yes." "A search was conducted at both Goto and Shima's respective residence," " Yesterday afternoon and the DNA from the bloodstain on the school uniform that was found in Deputy Chief Goto's residence matched that of Kanemoto Mami-san, and fingerprints of Goto and Shima were found on it as well." "Does that mean Sawatari was, in fact, innocent?" "What about the analysis on the bullet holes on Goto and Shima?" "The weapon used was a 22-caliber handgun." "Incidentally, the same gun was used 8 years ago in the murder of the Touyama family." "That gun has not been found yet." "The same handgun." "If Kurokouchi has that handgun, did he commit the crime 8 years ago too?" "That's the obvious conclusion, isn't it?" "The reason you came here was to hide that gun, the evidence, here in Sawatari-san's vacation home, wasn't it?" "You thought if that's found here, at the very least, suspicion would be directed at Sawatari-san again, right?" "I told you already that I was aiming for a come-from-behind upset, didn't I?" "But... it was raining, you know." "How's it going?" "Find anything yet?" "Finding new evidence in this rain is next to impossible." "Please wait for a while." "It's got to be there." "I'll be waiting for your call." "I wonder if, at the time of the 300-million yen robbery, the weather was like this too." "The 300-million yen robbery?" "Yeah." "Was he able to successfully carry out the 300-million yen robbery all by himself because discovery of evidence was delayed due to the rain?" "I wonder." "Well, it may not necessarily have been just one guy." "The rain has let up." "It stopped raining." "Looks like it stopped raining." "Inspector, it's been over 30 minutes since Seike went in." "I'm using my authority to raid." "All right." "Excuse me, but what's going to happen when it stops raining?" "Are you going to surrender because it stopped raining?" "That's not it?" "Could it be that... you didn't come here to hide that gun?" "I'll tell you the answer when we get outta here." "Hello?" "You found it!" "Got it." "Good." "Step back." "Everyone, step back." "Step back!" "Step back!" "Get me a car, will you?" "We'll get it ready, so calm down, Kurokouchi-kun." "We'll get it ready!" "Who gave you permission to make that decision." "We'll discuss whether we'll get it ready, so please wait a while." "Give up already, Kurokouchi!" "Inspector!" " Inspector!" " Get ready to fire!" "Go ahead and shoot, if you want." "Just now, the crime scene investigators found a new evidence at the site where Goto and Shima were found." "E-evidence?" "You can neither hide nor escape anymore, Kurokouchi." " Hey, what's he saying?" " I don't know..." "What's the matter?" "I dare you to shoot!" " What?" " What happened?" "He... doesn't have a gun." " S-seize him!" " Seize him!" "Kurokouchi-kun. 4:08." "You're under arrest for breaking into a home, in addition to suspicion of murder." "Look in his pockets." "Here you go." " What's going on?" " I'm not sure..." "With a toy like this that only makes noise, you can't even kill a bug, eh?" "The real gun was found." "Take it to the Crime Lab right away." "I guess it becomes easier to find once the rain lets up, huh?" "Rain?" "Come to think of it, around what time did the rain let up the day of the 300-million yen robbery?" "About 6 hours after the robbery occurred." "The rain let up right around this time." "I wonder if that's why a lot of evidence was found." "Although the actual culprit was never found." "That's right." " Take him away." " Yes, Sir." "Take him away." "Don't you think it'll be amazing if I could pull off an upset now?" "Gosh, but what a surprise." "Who would've thought" "Kurokouchi had the real gun hidden right by the bodies he shot and killed." "Really, huh?" "But wait... if that's the case, what was he hoping to accomplish by locking himself in with a toy gun?" "So he was arrested, huh?" "I certainly hope he admits to everything he did." "Will they be on here~?" "Kurokouchi's fingerprints..." "We have the results from the crime lab on the gun." " Kanagawa Police Headquarters" " Do you want to report it?" " No, you go ahead and do it this time." "First, upon examination of the rifle marks from the gun found at the site where the bodies were discovered, as expected, it was determined to be the gun used to kill both Goto and Shima." "Furthermore, it was the same gun used as the weapon in the unsolved Touyama Family murder case from 8 years ago." "In other words, it's proof that Kurokouchi killed them all." "Actually, the truth is... the fingerprints on the gun didn't belong to Kurokouchi." "How can that be..." "Then whose fingerprints were they?" "They were..." "Sawatari's fingerprints." "Then what?" "Was Sawatari responsible for all the crimes after all?" "Don't you think it'll be amazing if I could pull off an upset now?" "Pull off an upset..." "Those are Sawatari's fingerprints that were found on the gun." "If there were any fingerprints left on that gun, they should have been Kurokouchi-san's fingerprints without a doubt." "I saw it with my own eyes." "With those cute eyes?" "There's no way Sawatari-san's fingerprints are on the gun." "Not unless someone's lending a hand to Kurokouchi-san." "Until I handed the data over to the top, they were still Kurokouchi's fingerprints." "To the top?" "Incidentally, I gave to that same person the DNA analysis of the bloodstain on the school uniform that was found in Deputy Chief Goto's residence." "Is that person..." "It went as planned, didn't it?" "Former Chief of the Identification Division." "Arrest warrant's been re-issued for Sawatari." "Way to go~." "It's a secret, okay?" "This was... the come-from-behind upset." "Is it the season for reading books again?" "Sawatari Sensei." "Did your buddy in the Identification Section do all this?" "Please tell them this time." "What happened 8 years ago, and what happened 45 years ago too." "Be cautious hereafter." "Oh, Seike-san?" "Yakushiji-san tampered with the DNA and fingerprints, didn't he?" "Cor~rect." "Were you two connected?" "I'm not sure if I can say we're connected." "Do you think I don't know that you're tampering with evidence?" "Let's put formalities aside." "We got the bad guy after all." "Listen carefully, Kurokouchi." "I'll make sure I put an end to those steeped in great evil!" "Then please put an end to it." "However, if it's done in order to knock down great evil," "I'll close my eyes to it every time." "Although this time, he only participated midway." "Did that happen after you went to see Sawatari-san?" "That's right." "From the time we met at Chief Dojima's wake." " Wait, Kurokouchi!" " Get off my back." "I told you, I didn't kill anyone." "Do you remember what I said long time ago?" "I'll lend you a hand if you want to knock down great evil!" "Tell me everything." "Really?" "In other words, everything was part of your plan, including yesterday's incident." "What plan is that?" "You planned to pin the blame for everything on Sawatari-san." "So first, the day before you locked yourself in, you went and hid the real gun near the site where the bodies were found." "Ah, Yakushiji-san?" "We're ready to go." "Thanks in advance for your help tomorrow." "And Yakushiji-san was supposed to manipulate the results from the crime lab to make it look like" "Sawatari-san's fingerprints were on the gun that was found." "In addition, if that gun was found near the bodies," "Sawatari-san's story that you told him where the bodies were buried can be construed to be a lie." "But one unplanned thing occurred." "What's that?" "Rain." "Kurokouchi, the site is all mucky and we can't find the marker." "Where the hell it is?" "You figured the discovery of the gun would be delayed because of the rain..." "I guess I don't have a choice." "You put on a big show like that to buy time." "I only went to search for evidence against Sawatari, carrying a toy gun for self-protection." "And that's how" "I was acquitted and released." "However, there's one thing I don't understand." "What?" "Why did you stick the gun at me that persistently?" "That's because... the atmosphere called for it." "What're you doing?" "Todai-chan knows everything already." "I apologize for not telling you." "I give this as a token of our apology." "Before he died, your father, Seike Shinji-san, was probing the whereabouts of the money from the 300-million yen robbery." "When I checked, there was no actual incident of a stabbing by a burglar like what's written there." "Does that mean my father was murdered by Sawatari-san?" "No, more correctly, by "Sawatari and others."" "Kurokouchi." "There's something I want you to have." "It's data in regards to the 300-million yen robbery." "Does that, by any chance," " have to do with Sakura Fubuki* Association?" " *Sakura fubuki - flurry of falling cherry blossoms" "That's right." "Sakura?" "Sawatari and this association had a hand in the 300-million yen robbery." "More than likely, so did Goto and Shima who you killed." "Yakushiji-san, you were pursuing this case too?" "Yes... just like her." "It is okay for me to have that data?" "Time's running out for me." "Sakura Fubuki Association, huh?" "In that association is the perpetrator from 45 years ago." "So he's still alive." "Sorry to keep you waiting~." "You're late!" "You..." "Shall we go?" "I don't see him." "This is the place, right?" "Excuse me~." "What can that be?" "That?" "Where?" "Is it..." "Yakushiji-san?" "I knew it..." "Everyone winds up dead" "when they find out too much." "Everything's going as planned." "Where the hell are you... now." "This drama is based on a hypothesis."
