Original subtitles

This is Shibayama.

Listen, right at 8 o'clock.

Maybe I should have worn a kimono...

on the first day of work after the New Year.

Let's go!

We are now in front of Kaiou Construction.

The police are moving in.

It's January 8, 8am. The police are moving in.

It's January 8, 8am.

The police are on their way to arrest Congressman Misaki.

We are currently at the scene.

January 8, 8 am.

The police are starting the search at Kaiou Construction.

The Josai branch of the Tokyo Prosecutor's Office...

is moving towards Kaiou Construction.

It's currently January 8, 8 am.

The police have begun their investigation on the bribery...

between Congressman Misaki and Kaiou Construction.

We are interrupting our regular program...

to present you with this live coverage.

- Put it by the wall. - Okay.

(Kaiou Construction)

We're from the Tokyo Prosecutor's Office.

Is Mr. Misaki in?

Mr. Misaki, excuse us.

Please come with us to the prosecutor's office.

It's so noisy outside.

The press has gathered.

- It's outrageous. - Yes.

There's a crowd out there.

There are at least 10 cameras.

Are they broadcasting live?

I should have recorded it.

Are there no televisions here?

I'm taping it.

As expected of Suetsugu, our role model.

Do I look boring?

Who cares?

Maybe I should have changed my tie.

No, it makes you look responsible.

- Really? - Yes.

What should we do?

Well...

Can you help bring the evidence outside?

Got it.

Hey, who are they?

They're the Criminal Investigation Unit.

The police are involved too?

- It's just for show. - I see.

- That hurts! - Sorry.

- What? - Sorry.

- Again? - I have huge feet.

- Sorry. Got it. - Hurry up.

- Here. - Okay.

Suetsugu! This way!

What are you doing?

- Here. Carry these. - Sorry.

- Seriously. - Got it.

What paralegals?

We are just like the prosecutor's slaves!

That's the difference between district and national certification.

If you don't mind, these are for everyone.

- Please have them. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - Not at all.

Finally.

It's the New Year and you're sitting in between two beauties.

It must be your lucky year.

My stomach always hurts at times like this.

What's wrong, sir?

There's too much press.

Someone must've leaked information to them.

Not us, definitely.

I wonder.

If you know something, say it now.

It's still not too late before the higher-ups deal with it.

- Right? - Is it from our branch?

No. Isn't it tomorrow?

A new public prosecutor...

Is transferring from Aomori.

Is he really as good as they say?

That's only a rumor.

Why is he...

Coming in now?

Aren't you looking forward to it?

Will working for him be any easier?

Shibayama is tough.

- Do you want to switch with me? - It's the same anyway,

no matter who we work under.

I wonder who the living sacrifice will be.

I will do it!

You would do it, Amamiya?

That would be great.

I didn't want to ask you since you're under someone else.

- You're neglecting your job. - I'm doing both.

You're always trying to please everyone.

I just completed my assigned tasks.

I heard people always say you stick your nose everywhere.

Well, I don't want to waste Amamiya's offer.

Won't you stop, Nakamura?

It's not up to me to say, so do as you please.

Thank you.

You're just like a veteran public prosecutor.

That's why you have the ability to be where you are today.

Are you saying that I'm good,

and that is the reason why I'm still unmarried today?

No, I didn't mean that.

You're not interrogating a suspect right now.

Goodness, there's a helicopter too.

(Live Broadcast)

You're going to be late.

It's great.

Look at it.

You can use it even when you're lying down!

You can exercise anywhere.

Hello.

I'm just watching your shopping channel.

Yes.

Yes, the hip-swinging machine.

I'd like to buy one.

White.

No, yellow is fine.

Kuryu, K-U-R-Y-U.

Yes, Kuryu Kohei.

K-O-H-E-I.

For those who work hard for the country, we...

(Tokyo Prosecutor's Office, Josai Branch)

Good morning, Chief.

Good morning.

Thank you for your hard work yesterday.

But is it true that Misaki has an alibi?

That's right.

When they delivered the money, he was on a trip with his family.

He wasn't in Tokyo.

It must be a lie.

Probably.

If he is lying, we'll need evidence.

The higher-ups are troubled too.

If we can't disprove his alibi, he'll be released.

Arresting a politician is not an easy matter.

That'll make us look bad.

That's right.

This machine might look simple,

but it's really effective.

It hurts.

Did something happen?

It's from yesterday.

He made us carry all those boxes.

Idiot Shibayama.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I was just talking to Suetsugu about whether everyone has arrived.

You must have been tired yesterday.

You're the tired one.

Not at all!

I could do it every day!

Keep it up.

A simple design.

It can be used anywhere.

What do you mean you're doing both jobs?

I heard he is an excellent prosecutor.

So?

To become a vice-prosecutor, I will need various experiences.

You haven't given up on that?

I don't want to be a paralegal all my life.

Am I and my current career not enough for you?

- What? - I'm saying...

If you're having it both ways, make sure you plan ahead.

It's doing two jobs at once.

What do you mean, having it both ways?

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Door opening.

Don't step on my foot again.

Don't worry.

The new public prosecutor is arriving today, right?

He should be upstairs right now.

What?

What's going on?

- Good morning. - Is he really that good?

Who knows?

What's his name?

I think it's Kuryu.

What a weird name.

He studied by himself and passed, didn't he?

There really are people like that.

He might be just a country bumpkin.

He might even speak with an accent.

He might not even be able to simple things.

- Come on, guys. - That's right.

It's not right to judge someone by their name.

If he's a public prosecutor, he must be excellent.

- She's saying something. - Just calm down.

This is not an interrogation room or a courtroom.

It's fixed.

- You fixed it? - Yes.

I really don't want to work with some kid.

If he is an arrogant guy, I'll banish him.

If so, he won't last long here.

Come on, be nice.

Can you give me that tape?

Is it the footage from yesterday?

- Do you want a copy? - Yes.

I want two.

- Got it. - I'll send one to my parents.

Sorry, does anyone know where the snack is?

I took it.

Should I get it?

No, it's fine.

He is just a newcomer.

You know,

it's the newcomers who should bring the gifts.

He's from Aomori.

So he'll probably just bring some apples.

It's just a small token...

- Excuse me. - Yes.

I will be your new paralegal. I'm Amamiya.

Hello.

I work for Prosecutor Nakamura, but I will be assisting you.

If there's anything you need help with...

No, I'm sorry for coming in at this time.

Thank you.

So, will you be in charge of that case?

What case?

The case of the corrupt politician.

What?

Am I in charge of that?

Tokyo is amazing.

We don't have those kinds of huge cases in Aomori.

Sorry, what university did you graduate from?

- University? - Yes.

You'll be amazed. Well...

I didn't go to any.

- What? - You see,

I dropped out of high school.

So how should I say it?

My highest education...

is graduating from middle school.

But I tried taking the district examination.

Really.

I even passed the prosecutor's examination.

I must have used up my life's worth of luck.

Look, you can really read a book with these.

Did you come here straight from Aomori?

What about it?

What?

My clothes?

I always dress like this.

Look. It's right here.

Is it weird?

What are you having for lunch?

- If you don't mind, let's... - If you need me, just call for me.

I was just asking about lunch.

Shibayama.

I'm not going to the group date.

It's not a group date.

Have you heard about the Chief and Amamiya?

Is it true?

She doesn't drink,

but they go out at night once a week.

I see.

That conservative Amamiya and the Chief...

She might be trying to kiss up to him.

- Then that's tough for Egami. - Egami?

So it's true that Egami and Amamiya are dating?

Well, that's what Egami says.

So it looks like Amamiya is having it both ways.

It looks like it.

- Egami probably hasn't noticed. - Right.

Even the naive Suetsugu has already noticed.

Don't spread it around.

Suetsugu?

Yes?

Can you file these?

By the end of the day.

- All of these? - Yes.

Can you also gather information about sexual crime cases...

in the 1930s?

Sexual crime cases in the 1930s?

By the end of the day too.

By the end of the day?

Excuse me.

I'm not just talking about his clothes.

He lacks the attitude of a prosecutor...

and common sense.

I don't get that at all!

You said he would be an excellent guy yourself.

That's why I said you can't have it both ways, Amamiya.

- It's doing two jobs at once. - Come on.

Can't you treat him even softer than usual?

We'll see how things go for now.

- Chief - Yes?

Congressman Misaki should be here soon.

Is that so?

Well, he was transferred here at this timing.

He must be someone who can do his job well.

It won't be a disadvantage to you.

I'll leave it to you.

Is anyone here?

Amamiya?

Amamiya? Are you here?

She's not here.

This...

Nice.

The blue is quite cute.

Sorry for coming in without asking.

It's fine, everyone is welcome here.

You're a good person.

He afforded it after lining his pockets.

Were these taken on the same day the bribe was accepted?

We can't use a photograph's date as official evidence.

Are they his family?

They were all together that day.

- Their statements all matched. - Then,

we just have to prove that he wasn't there that day.

Yes, or we won't be able to prosecute him.

Right, or have a public hearing.

It's a battle of patience with Misaki.

Prosecutor Kuryu,

it's time for work.

You've come here after being interrogated...

at the police station.

Here, a prosecutor will interrogate you again,

and if you're found to be guilty,

you'll be prosecuted and brought to trial.

The police have questioned you,

but you have the right to remain silent,

and the right to appoint yourself a lawyer.

(Prosecutor: Kuryu Kohei)

So...

You stole these, right?

- I said it wasn't me. - Really? How about these?

I bought them.

But they've all been used.

There are places that sell them like that.

Those! They come with a polaroid photo of the girl, right?

- You know about it! - But are they real?

The shop I go to is fine.

I've seen girls taking them in.

Are they professional sellers?

Yes, it's a give-and-take system.

But I prefer the amateur ones.

You know your stuff, sir.

Of course.

- Pretty girls and things like that. - Right.

And I think, "What? She wears these kinds?"

I know!

Then, there are a lot of panties hanging on the veranda.

- Yes. - Then, you just quickly nab one.

- That's theft. - Wait!

Isn't that an induced interrogation?

I don't know about difficult things like that.

- Sir. - Yes?

Anyhow,

there have been numerous complaints in that area.

Aren't you the one who stole them?

I told you it's not me.

- Then, who was it? - I don't know.

But there was a witness.

Yesterday, January 8, around 8am,

you stole a pair of panties hanging on the veranda...

and ran away on your bicycle.

You weren't fast enough, so you abandoned your bike...

and escaped on foot.

That was your bicycle, wasn't it?

The registration number corresponds to your address.

I've told the police, my bicycle was stolen.

Then, did you report that to the police?

There would be no use.

Do you think you can get away by saying that?

I'm not lying. I was at home at that time.

- Can you prove that? - I was watching television.

So you can't prove it.

I taped the anime that starts at 8am.

I tape it every day.

- Yesterday too. - You can set a timer to tape.

I don't know how to use those things.

I only know how to press the button to start taping.

Stop making things up!

You scared me. Why did you hit the desk?

- She's like a gorilla, isn't she? - Right?

He understands me better.

I think we should request for detention.

- Detention? - What do you mean?

- I think there's a need. - I told you, I didn't do it!

- It's fine, right? - Wait, I don't...

Well, they'll just be asking questions.

Hey, I really didn't do it!

Remember to return them! Don't wash them!

Why did he say that?

Do you want to ask the police to investigate more?

So who stole them?

Or should we prosecute him?

Prosecutor Kuryu!

Why did he leave his bicycle?

Isn't it obvious that...

What are you doing?

This is Prosecutor Kuryu's office.

We would like to request further investigation...

of the underwear thief from today.

- What? - Yes.

- What's this? - I don't know.

Maybe it's evidence.

Maybe he needs it for the investigation.

Maybe it's something to disprove the alibi.

Hey, be careful!

Excuse me, is there...

It's here!

It's for me.

They said they would deliver it by noon,

so I asked them to deliver it here.

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Careful.

Are we throwing a welcome party for Prosecutor Kuryu?

It's fine. Everyone is busy anyway.

Right. We don't have much time.

We're busy trying to crack that alibi.

That's right. Let's forget it then.

I feel sorry for him. Why don't we do it?

Yes, let's throw one.

Then, let's decide quickly.

How about tomorrow night? The organizer should be...

Me?

Everybody wants...

This is amazing.

What?

Everybody wants to throw you a welcome party.

What? Don't worry about me.

Okay, we'll cancel it then.

I'm just kidding! When?

So you want one?

You're doing it anyway.

It's tomorrow night.

Where?

There is this bar we always go to.

Okay. I'll leave tomorrow night open.

Excuse me.

Right, come here.

Hurry.

Can you ask...

the victims of the underwear thief to see me tomorrow?

What for?

I want them to check the evidence.

That's the police's job.

And can you get a search warrant?

- A search warrant? - Yes.

(Empire Apartment)

What's with that prosecutor?

Does he not trust our investigative skills?

No, he just wants to take another look.

- Detective. - Yes.

What is it?

Can we seize these porn videos?

- Well, owning porn isn't a crime. - I see.

But if that helps with the investigation,

- feel free to do so. - Okay.

There are so many of them.

Amazing. How many are there?

Prosecutor Kuryu, what was it you wanted to do here?

Tamura said he taped something.

Let's find it and go.

He has "Miracle Girl".

- The anime that day was... - Sir.

Tamura has a criminal record.

He's a habitual sex offender.

- Yes. - That's right.

It's good to be detailed,

but isn't this a waste of everyone's time?

Don't you think so?

Most sex crimes are committed by repeat offenders.

See you next week!

She is an ordinary elementary student...

He did tape it.

Have you heard of a video timer?

He is taping over it.

It's porn.

- Seize this one! - Roger! Seize this!

- And all the anime videos too. - Right!

And these too.

I'm leaving.

Sorry, I really want to help you,

but there's a group date I must go to tonight.

No problem. It's my job.

I'm really sorry.

I've been wondering...

About what?

Well...

Egami wouldn't talk to me today.

It's fine. Didn't I tell you?

You always speak without mincing your words.

But...

- what are we to each other exactly? - Stop it.

It's best not to think about it too much.

Have you really been having it both ways?

No, I'm just doing two jobs at once!

I'm not talking about that!

Isn't it true...

that you and the Chief go out after work together?

What are you saying? I wouldn't do that with the Chief.

Of course.

You would have been more cautious about your actions.

You're someone with a boyfriend.

What?

You're dating me!

Wait.

Are you and I dating?

What?

- Are we not? - No.

But we go out for dinner and have drinks like this together!

Are you okay?

- That is because... - Didn't you say...

that you feel at ease with me...

and that you want to rely on me?

Are you okay?

That is just at work.

Hey, are you okay?

I'm not interested in relationships.

Hey, are you really okay?

Until I become a vice-prosecutor, I...

Hey, are you okay?

Hey, aren't you going to resign as a prosecutor yet?

I still need to get myself out there.

So you won't be a celebrity lawyer just yet.

Hey.

Do you want to work for me once I get my own office?

No, thank you.

I prefer interrogating suspects.

By the way, Suetsugu has been leering at me more recently.

Should I sue him for sexual harassment?

You're a beautiful woman.

No man would be able to help themselves.

This is Shibayama.

It's Dad.

- I'm going home soon. - I'm leaving.

This equipment will bring a smile to your face.

What a useful piece of equipment! I want one too.

It's right for any body type.

You can work out anywhere at home.

Buy one and get another one for only 100 dollars!

Amazing!

- No way. - What a good bargain!

I got a call from the Chief Detective of Josai Branch.

Is that so?

He apologized for not conducting a thorough investigation,

and that you had to go through so much trouble yourself.

It's fine, I don't mind.

You should mind!

He was complaining!

Why did you go to search there in the first place?

I wanted to take a look at the scene.

It's fine. That's the police's job.

Let me give you an example of what you should do.

Every morning,

Suetsugu cleans this desk.

It's as if you came and cleaned it right in front of him...

because you felt like you had to.

- Just like that. It's very rude. - Suetsugu cleans it every day?

- It's still dirty. - It's fine.

Anyhow, stop intervening with the police.

Work is all about teamwork.

The newcomer...

got a complaint from the police!

Newcomers make mistakes when they're impatient.

He should have left the search to the police.

He's certainly got some drive.

If he keeps this up, his work will suffer.

He is not used to the speed of Tokyo yet.

Of course.

He's coming out!

The victims of the underwear thief are in your office.

Thank you.

He looks beat down!

He does look quite sad.

Don't you feel bad for him?

It's fine. It's just a small matter.

I shall go and help him with his work.

Amamiya.

Can we talk?

Well...

Were you all right last night?

Yes.

Excuse me, you have something on your shirt.

Thank you.

It hurts!

How cute!

- It fits you! - No way.

- Really! - You look good.

You girls bend down and do this, right?

- Yes! - Yes, it makes it look bigger.

Do you feel better now?

What made you sad?

- I did too much. - What was it?

You see, I bought this two days ago.

The slimming machine.

This one. Do you know about it?

- Yes. - You do?

I bought it.

Then when I was watching TV last night,

they were on a special price.

- That's too bad. - They should have done it earlier.

I bought it too soon.

But you don't need two of them.

Why?

But if I had two,

we could swing on them together.

Goodness! I'll buy one!

- Me too! - That's enough!

Why did you ask them here?

To check...

But none of these belong to them.

Yes, they're too small for me.

I'm a 72G cup.

It's difficult to find the larger cups in Japan.

Yes, that's why I always get mine from foreign mail orders.

- You order things too? - Yes.

Really? Amazing. Look.

- What's that? - What's that?

Your legs get tired easily, right?

You wear high heels often. Put your hands on it.

It's amazing.

- What's that? - The vibration is strong, right?

Look at this. I bought this too.

- Me too! - Look!

Is this that thing? It's that comb set.

You know!

- You're quick! - Right?

- How about this? - A crime prevention buzzer.

- I have one too. - Me too!

There are a lot of perverts in the area lately.

It's scary, right?

There's an increase suddenly, right?

- How do you use it? - You just pull the cord.

- This one. - This cord?

Did something happen?

Please let me resume.

You volunteered to help.

That's why I'm asking you to let me come back.

If we transfer you back so soon,

they'll question my leadership as the Chief.

But I can't stand it anymore.

Don't say that. It's only until April.

Once we do the annual reshuffle, we'll move you.

- You promise. - Yes, I promise.

By the way...

How about next Tuesday night?

About that thing.

It's fine,

but strange rumors are spreading.

Really?

I should dress more simply then.

Let's just say both of us got invited to the opera.

How long are we going to keep doing this?

Why are you asking that now?

The next one is the Head of Prosecutor.

I'll be sure to give you a personal recommendation.

Aren't we both working hard for each other's promotion?

Leave it to me.

Just keep an eye on Kuryu until April.

A prosecutor and a paralegal should work together as a team.

Deputy Nabeshima, you're here!

We've been investigating the corruption case.

Please give us a little more time.

You work for Kuryu, don't you?

Yes.

How're you finding him?

Well...

He works very hard, right?

- Yes. - Well,

he is quite eccentric.

- Quite. - That...

That is Kuryu Kohei for you.

She is an ordinary elementary student...

who gained supernatural powers.

See you next week!

(See you next week!)

She is an ordinary elementary student...

who gained supernatural powers.

So we haven't cracked his alibi yet?

It might be impossible.

Why don't we forget about it?

His alibi is fake anyway.

We can just pretend we know nothing.

Then a trial can't be held.

She's right. Be more serious. Right?

Isn't it the same pattern as the Lockheed case?

History is repeating itself.

That time, he started talking about his alibi...

after the trial started, right?

His family are giving us the same story.

It can't be helped.

Right, why don't we have lunch?

At these times...

We need a change of atmosphere.

Why don't we ask Kuryu to come too?

Me again?

Kuryu.

Yes.

Where are you?

Map?

("Miracle Girl")

Ms. Amamiya!

You're here.

Over here.

Please let me know when you go out.

You looked busy.

What are you doing here?

I just don't get it.

Why did Tamura leave his bicycle here?

I don't understand.

- Do you get it now? - What?

He had no choice but to leave it here.

- These? - Are you satisfied now?

I'm even more confused now.

About what?

Why are you getting angry?

Tamura lives in the neighborhood, right?

So he would know the best escape route.

Yes, but he was in a panic.

That's common for criminals.

I've seen it happen so many times.

I see.

She's my paralegal. She's smart, right?

How respectable!

Right, this is "that thing".

I got it.

- What are you holding? - What?

Hey, it's this!

- You can put it here. - Got it.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - All right.

- Amemiya. - It's Amamiya.

Right, Amamiya.

Your face looks like a boiled egg.

Sorry?

I'm hungry. Don't you?

Boiled egg.

You know,

if you put the boiled egg in cold water,

it's easier to remove the shell.

What are you going to do about the case?

I'm still confused.

Why are you being so particular about this case?

This egg hasn't been in cold water.

I'm not being particular.

Other prosecutors would never go into so much detail.

- Is that so? - Yes.

I see.

I'm taking a dish.

It's the police who investigate.

But we have the right to investigate too.

That's for bigger cases...

You can exercise that right for bigger cases.

There are big and small cases?

Killing one person by accident...

would be a smaller case...

than the killing of 10 people intentionally.

The stealing of 100 yen...

would be a smaller case than a five million yen bribery.

Crimes are crimes.

- Thank you for waiting. - Thank you.

Please.

Thank you for the food.

Thank you.

Amemiya.

It's Amamiya.

Right, Amamiya.

You should just take off your glasses.

What?

(Restaurant)

Thank you.

I said it was my treat.

I don't want to owe anything. It was just 350 yen.

Only 350 yen?

Hey, where are you going?

Sir!

We should go back.

Sir.

Look, there are dolphins!

- Wait. - Look.

Sir.

It has been a while since I've been to places like this.

All right.

You can also be arrested for trespassing on a yacht!

Why are you so strict?

I've taken off my badge.

- Don't fall into the water. - What has he been going on about?

- Come here. - No, thank you.

Come on, it feels good. Give me your bag.

Hurry. What is it?

You're so stubborn.

Watch out.

It feels good.

Right?

We're only standing a little higher up...

but the way we look at the sea is already different.

Yet I'm sure there are things we can't see.

Beyond the harbor wall, for example.

Or under the sea.

There are more things that we can't see...

than the things we can see.

Like the mind of an underwear thief.

Or the feelings of a guy who watches porn.

Or the feelings of the girls addicted to TV shopping.

But if you look into it deeper, you would be able to see something.

Watch out.

Amazing. I feel like I'm flying.

You're blocking my view. Move it.

Wasn't there a photo of the family of the congressman?

What?

The photo of the family on the yacht.

It was probably taken from here.

So?

I was thinking about how they took a photo of the whole family.

They could have used a tripod.

A tripod?

But if they used a tripod,

they would've had...

to check the shot from here.

Besides, using a tripod would have been impossible.

It looked like a very windy day.

All the women were holding their hair.

It would have been very unstable at sea.

Someone who wasn't a family member must have taken it.

- The secretary? - She was on leave that day.

- The bodyguard? - On leave as well.

- The captain? - His son was the captain.

- It was a tripod then? - That's impossible.

Have you checked that?

He confirmed his alibi two days ago.

Two days ago?

January 8?

Yes, the day of the search.

At 8am, we went to his house...

The search was at 8am?

The day of the search...

There must have been another person.

The one who was on the yacht besides the family.

Who?

Hello, this is Amamiya.

Can you get the photo on the yacht?

It looked windy indeed.

It couldn't have been a tripod.

That's right. Can you find out who took the photo?

If we can prove that the person who took the photo...

wasn't on the yacht that day,

we'll have cracked Misaki's alibi.

I'll confirm the position on Misaki's yacht.

Okay. Where are you now?

I'm...

Wait.

Hello?

Misaki's yacht is moored...

Yes?

at Shinagawa,

the third wharf...

of Sunset Harbor.

The name of the yacht is St. Mary.

Sir,

about this family trip...

What about it?

- It looks like it was a windy day. - Yes.

It was hard to even stand.

All your family members are in the photo.

So who took this photo?

We used a tripod, obviously.

Even though it was hard to even stand?

The yacht must have been rocking about,

but this photo is in focus.

The secretary...

- She... - Wasn't she off that day?

Both of your secretaries...

and your bodyguard.

No.

I asked a passerby.

Sir, you were in the middle of the ocean.

Thank you.

What about Congressman Misaki?

We got his confession.

You did good.

- That... - Good job.

I'm surprised.

You can do it when you want to.

Kuryu must be happy about it.

Where is Prosecutor Kuryu?

His paralegal did better than him. He must be ashamed to stay.

He asked me to close a case a while ago.

A case?

The underwear thief. It must have been him.

No charges were brought.

No charges?

He ended up not even filing charges.

I really wonder about his future.

It's time.

I have to get to the press conference.

- See you. - Remember to tape it.

- I've set a timer. - Really?

Go already!

- Bye! - All the best!

He was watching that just before he asked to close the case.

Breaking news.

It's January 8, 8am.

The police are on their way to Kaiou Construction...

He was watching this?

He probably wanted to deal with a bigger case.

We are now in front of Kaiou Construction.

The police are moving in.

It's January 8, 8am.

The police are moving in.

It's Shibayama.

It's January 8, 8am.

The police are on their way to arrest Congressman Misaki.

We are currently at the scene.

With these powers, she transforms.

That was the end of our special program.

Now back to our regular program.

She is an ordinary elementary student...

("Miracle Girl")

Ms. Amamiya.

Ms. Amamiya?

Hello.

Is Prosecutor Kuryu here?

I think he has already left.

Is that so? Can you return this to him?

Actually, this is the first time I've arrested a criminal.

It's all thanks to his help.

Criminal?

The true criminal, the underwear thief.

- The true criminal? - Yes.

Excuse me.

Try taking a pair.

That surprised me! Sorry.

Excuse me.

With such a loud noise, all the neighbors heard.

That's how we caught him.

Mr. Kuryu told me to set up this device at the victim's house.

I have to get to work. Thank you.

Please thank him for me.

Your beer.

Thank you.

I heard the police arrested the underwear thief.

Really? That was fast.

Tamura was at home when the underwear was stolen.

If he had used a video timer,

it would have recorded the start of the special news program.

Yet the anime was taped from the beginning.

If he hadn't taped it himself,

then that wouldn't have happened.

When did you realize it?

You told me on the yacht...

that Misaki's arrest was at 8am that day.

Everyone is late.

What?

Isn't it my welcome party today?

I'm sure everyone is aware.

As stated,

the Tokyo police are prosecuting Congressman Misaki...

on accepting bribery at his home.

The details are as follows.

The Josai branch of the Tokyo Prosecutor's Office...

Yes!

Are you a prosecutor?

Yes, I am. At your service.

Hey, isn't it the newcomer's welcome party today?

Right.

Some of them probably showed up.

I suppose.

Hello.

It's Dad.

- What did you say? - I'm leaving.

Everyone is really late.

I don't think anyone is coming.

They're not?

Maybe...

Maybe?

I'm sure.

Do they all hate me?

They're all like that.

Everyone does their own things.

I thought so.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Did you know where that yacht was,

so we went to that restaurant?

What?

This time, we are offering 10 machines...

for the price of one!

I can't believe it!

No way!

The suspect is dead already.

He can't give a testimony at the trial.

Is Kuryu the prosecutor in charge of this case?

The suspect may well be the victim here.

I'm your paralegal.

I'll see it to the end.
