Father, do you
have any last words?

Do you have any last words?

Everyone is waiting

to hear your last words, father.

I do have

his will with me.

According to the
wish of Mr. Sahei,

when all the kindred
are gathered together,

I shall announce his will.

He has passed away.

Excuse me.

Where is Nasu Hotel?

Walk straight here and
turn right at the corner.

Turn left when you see
the first junction, then

turn right again. The
third house on your right.

There is a signboard
in front of the house.

Although it's called Hotel,
it's just an old motel.

It's okay for me. I don't
think if it's dirty too.

Someone asked me to
stay in that hotel.

I am working at the hotel.

Song of the century, song
of the heart, Tokyo... Hey!

Please write down
your name and address.

The police are rather
annoying nowadays.

Kindaichi Kosuke.

That's a weird name.

This is beautiful...

Country has fallen, but
rivers and mountains remain...

What about the meals? Do
you have any meal coupon?

I am starving. It'll
be crowded at night.

Please take care of this.
I think it should be enough.

How long do you
plan to stay here?

Well...

How long am I gonna stay...

Attorney Furudate's office.

Mr. Kindaichi?

Welcome back.

Yes... yes...

Sorry to keep you waiting.

I am Wakabayashi
who sent you letter.

All right. I will arrive
at your place in 30 minutes.

We shall talk about
the details later.

Hey, is that the
mansion of Inugami?

Yes.

We all called him Inugami-sama.

I heard the founder Mr. Sahei...

passed away 7 months ago.

That's right.

His funeral was huge.

People living in
this neighbourhood

are grown under the
protection of Inugami Medicine.

Is that woman one
of Inugamis too?

She is Ms. Tamayo.

She is not a relative
of Inugami-sama,

I heard she is the
offspring of his benefactor.

That's why she stays
in Inugami mansion too.

And she is very pretty.

Really, is she a looker?

Then I should watch carefully.

Help! Someone help!

Where is the back door?

Saruzo!

Hey, come over here.

Please keep this boat balance

and bring it to the shore.

Someone made a hole at
the bottom of the boat.

Mr. Kindaichi, right?

Yes.

You have a guest.

Thanks.

Wait... wait a minute.

Haru, what does
he do for a living?

He has a binocular.

What is it?

He's dead.

Do you know him?

Mr. Wakabayashi.

Police chief...

Oh, welcome.

I'd like to see
Kindaichi Kosuke.

Do you know me, Mr. Furudate?

Not really.

He is an important witness
in Wakabayashi's murder case.

Such a frivolous man.

When I asked his occupation,
he said he is a private detective.

How dare he say so!

But it's true.

Did Wakabayashi
ask you to do this?

The letter was sent
together with this book.

In the letter, it stated
that "Something big

might happen to
the Inugamis soon.

This will be a blood battle."

Even if something might happen,

why would Wakabayashi know?

It reminds me of something.

What is it?

We keep the will
of Inugami Sahei

in the safe of our office.

But...

I think someone
might have seen it.

Do you think
Wakabayashi had seen it?

Only Wakabayashi and
I could open the safe.

But I don't know
how much he had read.

The anatomy showed that there is
toxic in the liver of the victim.

Liver?

Was here anything
weird about the will?

Really weird indeed.

Mr. Kindaichi.

Yes.

I'd like to ask you...

to investigate this case for me.

Really? That'd be a great help!

I was worried no one
would cover my expenses

since Wakabayashi is
not around anymore.

Thank you.

Nice working with you.

Why wasn't the will being
read out at that time?

He had nine family members.

I could not read the will
because one of them was absent.

And there is another person,
although not a relative...

Ms. Nomomiya Tamayo
was there too.

She knows the Inugamis
for a long time.

Ms. Tamayo?

Why?

Oh, nothing.

Who was absent?

Sukekiyo, the son of his
eldest daughter Matsuko.

Sukekiyo joined the
army and went overseas.

He is still alive
but didn't come back.

What happen to him now?

Half a month ago,
someone told me

He was demobilized at Hakata.

Then?

Ms. Matsuko went to
pick him up right away.

But both of them
haven't returned at all.

How many children
did Sahei-sama have?

Sahei-sama didn't get
married in his life.

He had 3 daughters.

The eldest daughter Matsuko
grew up in the mansion.

The second daughter, Takeko.

Takeko was living in Tokyo,

but Matsuko asked
her to return to Nasu.

Her son Suketake and
daughter Sayoko came along.

Mom.

Isn't this belonged
to Aunt Matsuko?

She might be upset if you
play it without her permission.

By the way, what
happened to Aunt Matsuko?

Suketake, Sayoko,

she is always impulsive.

What important is the will.

I will wait no matter
how long it takes.

The third daughter
is called Umeko.

She came from Osaka.

She has a son, Suketomo.

Suketomo,

how is your relation
with Sayoko going?

Not bad. I do it
for dad and mom.

Stop being eccentric!

Sayoko should be able
to get a big portion of legacy.

It'd be a lot of
money combining ours.

Isn't it?

Toranosuke, Takeko's husband,

is the branch manager of
Inugami Medicine in Tokyo.

Koukichi, Umeko's husband,
is the branch manager in Osaka.

This is boring.

I only planned to
stay for a few days.

Never thought we have
to wait for so long.

It's better to stay here

than a hectic place like Tokyo.

That's right.
You need patience in life.

It looks like you don't care
much about the content of the will.

Yeah.

Dad.

Aunt Matsuko might come
back with Sukekiyo tonight.

Really?

Only we go to meet them?

What is Matsuko thinking?

And even make a
big deal out of it.

She asked us to wait
for her at the back door.

Welcome back.

Only two of you come, right?

Yes.

Who is he?

Sukekiyo.

Come with me.

The guest is here.

Let me introduce, this
is Kindaichi Kosuke.

Wakabayashi passed away. So
he accompanies me to come here.

Of course I get the
permission from the lady.

Mr. Furutake,

So...

please start.

I shall read out the will now.

Before this, I need
to ask Ms. Matsuko,

whether the man over there

is really Sukekiyo.

I am not questioning you,

but can I have a
look at his face?

What do you mean?

Do you suspect

this is not the real Sukekiyo?

That's not what I mean...

What do the rest of you think?

This is improper.

What do you think, Umeko?

Should we ask him
to take off the veil

and show his face?

Of course.

What about you?

Don't keep quiet.
Say something.

Sukekiyo, take off the veil!

Sukekiyo was wounded seriously

fighting the battle
for the country.

That's why he has
to wear the mask.

Sukekiyo,

show your face

to these cruel people!

Sukekiyo, enough.

Mr. Furudate,

you should have no
suspicion now, do you?

I can guarantee

he is Sukekiyo.

So,

please read the will now.

Okay then.

I shall start reading now.

First,

All the property of Inugami

and three heirlooms, the
axe, harp and chrysanthemum,

are transferred
to Ms. Nomomiya

Tamayo under the
following conditions.

What? Tamayo would
get the legacy?

Second, Nomomiya
Tamayo must marry

one of the three grandsons

of Inugamni Sahei.

Tamayo can make her
own choice among them.

If she does not
marry anyone of them,

she would lose her inheritance.

Third,

if none of them are not
willing to marry Tamayo

or he is dead,

three of them would lose
their relevant inheritance.

Tamayo can marry anyone else.

Fourth,

once Tamayo loses
her inheritance,

Sukekiyo, Suketake and Suketomo
will inherit the legacy.

The legacy will be
divided into five.

Each of them will get a share.

The remaining two shares

will be given to Aonuma
Shizuma, the son of Aonuma Kikuno

Aonuma...

Kikuno?!

Fifth,

if Tamayo, Sukekiyo, Suketake
and Suketomo are dead,

the legacy of Inugami will be
inherited by Aonuma Shizuma.

No way! You are lying!

This will is a fake!

No!

Someone forged this will to
get the legacy of Inugami!

As the lawyer and
advisor of Inugamis...

This is just a piece of paper!

This will is legally valid.

- Shut up!
- When Inugami set this will...

This is a fake will!

Every word in this will is
true and you must comply.

There is no way
this will is true

if he didn't leave
anything to his daughters.

What kind of lawyer are you?

Umeko,

how can we let a non-related
woman inherit the legacy?

That's right.

What kind of nonsense is this...

What about us?

Now we have to wait for Ms.
Tamayo to make the decision.

- I'm too heartbroken for tears!
- That's right.

Listen.

Don't just blame on Tamayo.

Aonuma Kikuno and Shizuma
have occupied a big share too.

Shut up! Don't
mention them at all!

How could he? My name wasn't
even mentioned in the will!

Stop crying!

You are not the only one
being neglected, Sayoko!

I seldom see you
be so emotional.

Why is it?

How can you remain calm?

Stop crying, Sayoko.

You must be calm
under this situation.

If Suketake gets
to marry Tamayo,

we'd get the legacy.

I was upset though.

Excuse me.

Now you even plan
a plot on us, huh?

Yeah, I believe so.

One fifth of the legacy
is a big amount too.

You might be able to build a
few high-rise buildings in Osaka.

You are optimistic, huh?

Is it okay for you

to let Tamayo gets 4
times of that amount?

That's odd.

What is?

Why does Aonuma Shizuma
have inheritance?

That's right.

Father was 50 years old odd.

Giving his legacy

to the son of a
worker in his factory?

Oh, it's you...

Mr. Furudate.

About the content
of will yesterday...

What about it?

In danger.

Who?

Ms. Tamayo.

You mean, someone
might try to kill her?

Or on the contrary.

On the contrary?

The murderer might make
himself looks like a victim.

It's a common occurrence.

Someone like you

always have to
suspect everyone, huh?

Why are human beings
so cold-hearted...

By the way,
Suketake and Suketomo

have something to show us.

They asked us to go
the Nasu Shinto at once.

Everyone come here to
leave their hand prints

before they go to a battle

and it'd be kept in this shrine

to pray for their
fortunes of war.

Why is this for?

I want to prove
if that man in mask

is the real Sukekiyo.

No two persons have same
fingerprint in this world.

Ask that man to
make a hand print

and compare with it.

I'd like to ask Mr.
Furudate to witness that

this was indeed the
hand print of Sukekiyo

before he left for the war.

You are also wondering

whether that man is
the real Sukekiyo too,

aren't you?

Of course.

But his mother Ms.
Matsuko is so sure...

You don't know Aunt Matsuko.

If Sukekiyo is dead,

she has no way
to get the legacy.

Do you think about
this your own?

No, Shinto priest
told us about it,

and we thought it
might be useful.

Thank you for your concern.

I had forgotten about it.

But someone told
me the hand print

of Sukekiyo should be kept here.

Who was that?

Ms. Tamayo.

Huh, Ms. Tamayo?

Do you remember
this pocket watch?

Grandpa Sahei told me

to give it to my
husband when I grow up.

So he asked me to keep it.

It's broken,

Now I need someone to fix it.

The pocket watch was
broken during the war.

Only Sukekiyo managed to fix it.

I have been waiting for you
since the demobilization.

Can you fix it for me?

My hands are not skilful
now. Maybe next time.

Who is it? The door is open.

Do you have vacant room?

Aunt,

so you won't let
Sukekiyo prove it?

How many times do
you want me to say?

His face has changed, but
he is definitely Sukekiyo!

Sister,

why don't you just
let him make a print

to clear up the suspicion?

What do you think, Umeko?

I agree.

It'll be even doubtful

if you refuse to do it.

Sukekiyo,
although aunt disagrees,

but this is about you.

Are you going to
prove it or not?

Sukekiyo

is the eldest
grandson of Inugami.

In the old days, he'd
be called young master.

Your master.

But you...

I won't

let you insult my son like this!

Even if he wants, I
won't let him do it!

Sukekiyo, let's go.

Hey, trying to run away?

Excuse me.

Please register here.

Please write it for me.

Me?

Just write what I say.

That wouldn't be proper.

Why?

Well...

I don't know how to write.

What is it?

Nothing.

That young man doesn't
know how to write.

Forget about the registration,

he has scar on his face.

He even wears scarf in the room.

Would the rent be a problem?

Yeah.

You better check it out.

Do you have to go out at this
late hour? Where are you going?

I have something to do.

Good morning, this
is police department.

No...

Please come over
at once, Kindaichi.

A police called and told me...

The prediction of
Wakabayashi has come true!

- You are not allowed to enter!
- Excuse me, please let me enter.

Oh, please let him come in.

Mr. Kindaichi, this is bad.

- What happened, Mr. Furudate?
- Suketake is murdered!

What?

Please come at once!

Don't get too close to the doll.

Saruzo made the Kiku dolls.

Sahei-sama liked it a lot,
so he made it every year.

This year, he made
the Kikuhata, third

scene of Three Scrolls
of Kiichi Hougen...

Watch carefully,
Kindaichi, do you get it?

When I take a closer look,

the dolls look like the
family members of Inugami.

That is... Suketake!

Who found the victim?

Saruzo.

Let me see Suketake!

Suketake is dead! There's
no way for you to see him!

Mom, calm down!

Don't be stupid!

I want to kill the murderer!

Stop it, Takeko!

Don't stop me!

I could understand how
upset Takeko must be now.

But why did the head
of the doll get changed?

It took a lot of
effort to do it.

Senba.

Yes, sir.

I think the murderer
killed Suketake here,

cut his head and threw
the body into the lake.

We have to find the
body in the lake.

Easy for you to say.

I found this.

Do you recognize the brooch?

Yes.

Whose is it?

It belonged to Ms. Tamayo.

Maybe she lost it
here before yesterday.

No. I remember clearly

Ms. Tamayo wore this
in the Shinto yesterday.

Now...

I shall ask Sukekiyo
to make the hand print.

I was hot-headed

and refused it.

I never thought things
would have become this way.

And...

now it looks like it's Sakukiyo
and I who were to blame.

Sukekiyo wants to do this.

This...

belongs to you, right?

Yes, where did you find it?

At the crime scene.

You went to observatory
last night, didn't you?

What happened?

Well...

I...

I went to meet Suketake
at observatory last night

to discuss something with him.

Sorry, I'm late.

You never ask me
to meet you alone.

I didn't believe it at first.

There's fingerprint of Sukekiyo
on the surface of the pocket watch.

Please compare it to
the hand print in Shinto.

I never thought you'd
do me this favour.

I just want to clear up
the suspicion on Sukekiyo

as soon as possible.

I know this is
none of my business.

I'd get it
validated by tomorrow.

Do you suspect

that man isn't the
real Sukekiyo too?

Good night then.

Tamayo.

Who would you choose
among three of us?

I love you for a long time. It
has nothing to do with the legacy.

I haven't thought
about it yet. Excuse me.

No!

Be my woman.

Be my woman!

No...

Saruzo.

I'll kill you if
you do this again.

I left the observatory
with the help of Saruzo.

Is that all?

Yes.

Did you make the report?

Yes.

All right.

Hey, Senba.

The boat used to shift the body

and the murder weapon was found

at Kannon Cape at the
north side of the lake.

Who made the call?

A patrolman just called.

The boat has the
sign of Inugami.

Saruzo is the servant
in charge of the boat.

He never mentioned to us

that a boat was missing.

It was Saruzo who found
the head of the victim.

The last person
who saw Suketake...

were Tamayo and Saruzo.

Tamayo's confession
was rather vague.

And there was no other witness.

What is the relationship
between Tamayo and Saruzo?

Saruzo was adopted

by Sahei 10 years ago...

and has been staying
with Inugamis ever since.

He joined the army
during the war.

But I am not too sure
about his background.

Sahei did ask Saruzo
to protect Tamayo

with his life before he died.

The other servants always talk
about Saruzo behind his back.

Then it's logical

to say that he might
kill for Tamayo.

I see.

I get it now.

Tamayo and Saruzo
are the criminals.

Senba, follow two of them.

Chief.

What is it?

The owner of the
hotel at Kannon Cape

provided some funny clues.

Follow me.

Let's go there now.

Do you mind if I come along?

You should stay here and wait
for the report of fingerprints.

Really?

Go with them, Kindaichi.

I can wait here.

This car is terrible.

Yeah.

The army of occupation
sold it to you, right?

Here we are.

So this is Kashiwaya.

Excuse me, we are the police.

Someone who looked
like a demobilized

soldier stayed here last night?

Yes. He was rather funny.

Oh, did he cover his face?

Yes.

Show me the registration book.

What is it written?

Yamada Saburo...

Who wrote this?

It's not written by him.

Did you write this?

No, it was written by my wife.

Yes, I wrote it.

When did that man arrive here?

8pm last night.

Then he went out at 10pm

and came back around 12.

He left here 5am this morning.

If there was a man in
army uniform involved,

we have to start the investigation
right from the beginning.

The demobilized soldier

was staying here, right?

He was here between 8 to 10pm.

Really?

At that time, the Inugamis

were arguing about
the hand prints.

Chief Todoroki, it means

there are two men
wearing a mask.

Two men?

I am Furudate.

Please come in.

May we?

Yes.

Let me introduce,
this is Fujisaki.

He is in charge of the
fingerprint matching.

Really?

So, Mr. Fujisaki.

Okay.

So...

I shall announce the
result of the checking.

Without using any obscure terms,

I shall tell the
result straight away.

Both the hand prints match.

It means,

this young man over here...

is Sukekiyo indeed.

The prints are
the best evidence.

You like smoking, huh?

Yes.

Do Ms. Matsuko and
Ms. Takeko smoke too?

My elder sister smokes too. Why?

Nothing.

Mom, don't you find it weird?

Everyone must be exhausted.

It has been a long day.

Let's take a good rest.

Tamayo, can I talk to you?

Please don't choose
Suketomo to be your husband.

There are only two candidates
left after my brother died.

One of them

has a face that you
can't even look at.

That's why I'm worried.

Tamayo,

I am pregnant.

Is it...?

Yes.

It is Suketomo's child.

Tamayo, let me
say the last time.

If you choose Suketomo,

I will hate you for
the rest of my life.

I am fine.

What was that?

Let's go and have a look.

It's Sukekiyo.

Please lend me the torch light.

Is he dead?

No, he just passes out.

Who knocked him down?

What is it?

Nothing,

- And then?
- Yes.

The death time of
victim Inugami Suketake

was between 11 to
12pm in the afternoon.

The murder weapon was
stabbed from his back.

What kind of murder weapon?

Something like a pair scissors.

Scissors?

Scissors that used to
shape trees or cut flowers.

If it was a flower scissors,
it might belong to a woman...

The murder prepared
both the scissors and

the firewood knife
to cut off the head.

You may also say there
were two different

people who used
them respectively.

You mean, it was
not only one murder?

That is possible too.

And...

was the gold pocket watch
found in the coat of the victim?

No.

Tamayo said she passed the watch
to Suketake at the observatory.

I knew she was lying.

I don't think a looker
like her would lie.

Listen here.

There are only two
kinds of humans.

Good and evil.

Flower scissors?

That's right.
Flower scissors.

According to the
witness of a servant,

you have borrowed the flower
scissors of Ms. Matsuko.

Do you have it with you?

Well...

ls there a problem?

You mean,

you didn't see it

during the wake of Suketake?

Did you have it with
you the day before?

The day Suketake got murdered.

What is it with
the flower scissors?

In fact, we have found out

the murder weapon that killed
Suketake was a flower scissors.

Are you saying I
am the murderer?

That's terrible! I won't
forgive you for accusing me!

Calm down, lady.

We are looking for the murderer

and we hope you could help us.

I have been helping
people all my life.

How come you are here? I
have been looking for you.

What is it about?

The police chief and
Kindaichi are here.

They have something
important to tell.

They ask us to go back at once.

I'll go back now.

Don't use your boat.
The chief is impatient.

Then what about this boat?

I'll ask someone to
come and get it later.

Come on up.

All right then.

Who... who is it?

Say something!

Have you finished eating?

Yes. It was delicious.

I made all of them.

Which one did you like?

The raw egg.

What?! How could you...

Didn't you promise me
not to come here?

It's chaos in the
Inugami family now.

I'm sure you've heard of it.

It must be hard for you.

This is the last time.
Leave here at once.

I will do as you say.

This might be the last time
we meet in this lifetime.

Take care.

Mr. Kindaichi, I need
to clean the room.

Is there a university
in this town?

Yes, there is.

Really?

The professor of the university
comes here once in a while

to play chess with
the owner of the hotel.

That's great.

Why?

Can you do me a favour?

I need you to check
something for me.

Be the assistant of a detective?

According to the
biography of Sahei,

The business of Inugami
Medicine had huge improvement

during the wartime like wars of
Nisshin, Nichiro, and World War I.

Did they produce narcotics?

Mustard seed.

Opium and heroin
could be abstracted

from mustard seed.

Mr. Sahei got special permission

of making them.

Army was the heavy buyer

of these narcotics.

The narcotics of
Inugami are weapons

equal to bombs and
guns on the battlefield.

Saruzo?

Yes.

You are Saruzo, right?

Are you in boathouse right now?

Tamayo is now in an
empty house at Toyohama.

Do you know the first
mansion of Inugamis?

Tamayo is in coma.
Please come at once.

Don't let the others know.

Come by yourself.

Hey, you...

Goharu...

Goharu.

I have been waiting for you.

Thank you.

You must be starving.
Have some more.

Did you get to
meet the professor?

Yes.

Great.

Have some more.

Did the professor
write this message?

That's right.

I see.

The toxic is an
alkaloid compound.

Have some more.

Shape like a white crystal.

The murder put
toxic in the smoke.

This is a funny compound.

Funny?

What else did the professor say?

He said it's impossible
to do analysis now

since there are components
distilled from herbs.

I see.

Continue to eat.

Did he mention if this has
anything to do with mustard?

He said this toxic
is similar to the

structure of
hydrochloric morphine.

Really?

Continue to eat.

What is it?

Don't you want to eat anymore?

I have no time to eat at all.

Really?

Bill, please.

- Let me pay for it.
- No.

I should pay for what I eat.

I said no. Let me buy you
this meal to thank you.

Master, sorry to disturb you.

I didn't get to
practice much since

I was sick most of
the time last year.

Let's start now.

Can I start playing
from the beginning?

Of course.

How come

she still has the mood to
play Harp with people dying?

Where is Suketomo? How
come he's not back yet?

Where have you been?

Is it Sukekiyo?

I head you were demobilized.

You must have suffered a lot.

It's late to say now,

I heard calamities have
happened in your family.

I feel sorry for you.

It's okay.

This world is full of calamities.

Only bad things reported
in the newspapers.

A blind woman like me

don't really bother about it.

That's why I live
a happier life.

Sayoko.

The rain is heavy.

Suketomo has been
missing since last night.

Now that you mention it,

the last time I saw him was
yesterday. Let me look for him.

Suketomo is not a rat,

why would he hide
in a room like this?

Give me your hand.

Thank you, I'm fine.

This is cruel...

Sir, this is not
the crime scene.

So the murderer
moved the body again!

That's right. Because
none of the tiles is broken.

It's the string of Harp.

Was he strangled to death?

Maybe it was made to look
like he was strangled.

After chrysanthemum is Harp.

Chief, this is
your responsibility!

When you suspected
that I was the murderer,

the real murderer killed my son!

I'm sure Tamayo is the murderer!

How could you simply say that?

You're disturbing
the investigation.

Do you believe what she said?

Did Suketomo look like

someone who would try drug rape?

I am his mother.
I know him well!

Tamayo lied to protect herself!

She doesn't have the strength

to bring the body
to the rooftop.

Saruzo did that.

Sister Matsuko,

are you happy now?

I'm sure you are.

Both Suketake and
Suketomo are dead.

Only left your son Sukekiyo.

Everything goes as you will.

Chief,

is it true that
there was a string

strangled at the
neck of Suketomo?

Yes.

But the weapon
that strangled him

should be a much thicker rope.

Chrysanthemum at first,

this time is Harp.

Which means...

The axe...

The Harp...

Chrysanthemum...

What are you trying to say?

Sister Matsuko,

in order to revenge for
Suketomo and Suketake,

I will tell that
incident right now.

Three of us have
different mothers.

None of them get to become the
official wife of our father.

They were just three women

who were kept like
toys by the man.

But our father had
sex relationship

with a woman younger than us.

She is a worker in our
factory, Aonuma Kikuno.

Kikuno gave birth to a son.

And father have given the
three heirlooms of Inugami,

the axe, harp and
chrysanthemum to him.

We couldn't forgive that.

In order to get
the heirlooms back,

three of us went to
the village they stayed.

Three heirlooms
are used to revenge.

Takeko and the others thought it

has something to
do with the murders.

But what they did was terrible.

Desire is rather fearful.

Right, Senba?

Yes.

Mr. Furudate,

where have Kikuno
and her son gone?

Kikuno went to Toyama
to look for her relative.

After a while, she
died of sickness.

What a poor woman.

I heard Shizuma joined the army.

But there is no news
of him ever since.

Really?

I get it now.

The demobilized
soldier must be Aonuma

Shizuma, who is
also the murderer!

In order to get the legacy,

he killed one after
another. Senba!

Yes sir.

Send a hue and cry on him.

Yes sir.

Axe, harp and mum
were derived from

Nomomiya Dainishinkan
Shinto few generations ago.

People make the
gold axe, harp and

mum to be the
treasure of the Shinto.

When Inugami Sahei first
founded his company,

Dainishinkan gave
them to him as a gift.

They are usually kept
in the Shinto, right?

Yes.

What is this?

Good things keep coming.

The blessing has
become a curse now.

What I'm concerned now,
there's the axe left.

You mean, another murder
case is going to happen?

Oyama-sama, in order to
stop it from happening,

can you please tell
me the relationship

of Nomomiya Daini
and the Inugamis?

Me?

I couldn't believe
at first about

what happened to Tamayo.

I kept my mouth shut

and never mention it to anyone.

I only tell you.

When I checked on this old book,

it stated the
abnormal relationship

between Mr. Sahei
and Nomomiya Daini.

Although Nomomiya
Daini-sama had a wife,

he never liked a woman.

That's why Sahei
was favoured by Daini.

Sometime later, Sahei
slept with Haruyo,

the virgin wife of Daini.

They had a child called Noriko.

She was the mother of Tamayo.

That's why Mr. Sahei

cared so much about Tamayo.

Because she is his
real granddaughter.

The financial giant in Shinshu

had an unknown past.

Mr. Furudate, in my opinion,

the murder cases
happened right now

were all planned by Sahei.

Kindaichi...

Sahei passed away 7 months ago.

How could he...

That's right.

I wonder why I think that way...

The woman he loved most was
the wife of his benefactor.

Sahei managed to accumulated
money, women and power.

It's all because of
the greed of human.

Tamayo, have you
made up your mind?

Since Suketake and
Suketomo are dead,

only Sukekiyo
could marry you now.

So,

tell me your answer now.

Why are you not talking?

You have no other way now.

I refuse.

What?!

Do you know what you
are talking about?

You'd lose your inheritance

if you don't get
married with Sukekiyo.

Aunt Matsuko,

his man is not Sukekiyo.

Sukekiyo!

Mom...

I am Sukekiyo.

Where have you been?

I have been looking for you.

I want to talk to you.

Let's go to the warehouse.

Come on.

Sukekiyo.

How dare she say
you are not my son?!

That's crazy!

Tamayo was lying.

What am I thinking?

Right, Sukekiyo?

Say something.

What Tamayo said was true.

Your favourite Sukekiyo

was missing.

Then who are you?

Well,

I am Aonuma Shizuma.

The son of Aunoma Kikuno

whom you and your
sisters insulted. Shizuma!

My mom died when I was nine.

She was still cursing
you before she died.

I have sworn

I must revenge

to the Inugamis.

I want to revenge for my mother!

Isn't this like a comeuppance?

I met your son Sukekiyo
on the battlefield.

I approached him

on the battlefield in Burma.

We have the similar
face and view

from the back. We
became close friends.

Your son is a good man.

The war became drastic. Our
troop lost a lot of soldiers.

His troop completely collapsed.

I was disfigured
and barely survived.

At the time, it was
my hatred towards

the Inugamis kept me hanging on.

I made a decision then.

I would return to Inugami
family as Sukekiyo.

That's interesting.
I want to play too.

Be careful.

Hey, lift it up.

I can't see his face.
Cleanse it with water.

Was it really the
body of Sukekiyo?

Yes.

His head was chopped by an axe.

The murderer has completed the
revenge of axe, harp and mum.

Kindaichi, why
are you in a rush?

I just read the papers.

Yes, Sukekiyo is dead.

Where have you been?

You didn't return to your
hotel last night, did you?

Yes.

Chief, can you get
me the fingerprints

of the right hand of the victim?

You too?

Tamayo said the same thing.

Tamayo?

The hand print
we got earlier did

match the hand
print kept in Shinto.

That's the problem!

Do you have result yet?

This is weird.

It's totally different from
the hand print in Shinto.

So the victim was
not Inugami Sukekiyo.

Yes.

He was replaced.

What?

By using the mask,

the murderer switched between
the real person and the faker.

Who was the victim this morning?

I think he might be Shizuma.

Really?

All right. I get it.

So Sukekiyo is the criminal.

Sukekiyo?

Don't come to me.

I killed them.

Suketake, Suketomo
and Shizuma...

I killed all of them.

Sukekiyo!

I am wanted now.

There is no way for me to run.

I know I made a lot of mistakes.

Just imagine I
died during the war.

Before I turn myself in,

I just want to see
you one last time.

You should abandon

the identity of Inugami.

Forget about everything
and live a new life.

All right?

You follow me here.

I can understand your dander.

But don't worry.

I have decided

to stay away from you guys.

What are you doing?

It's too late to
ask me to return now!

Police! Hey!

Sukekiyo!

Sorry to ask you to
come all the way here.

Did Sukekiyo come
to you just now?

I am Inugami Sukekiyo, the serial
killer of all the murder cases.

I make the confession now.

I think

Sukekiyo must have
broken up with you.

That's right.

Tamayo, you knew

the body in the lake
was not Sukekiyo.

I might have mistaken others,

but definitely not him.

You threaten Shizuma

to kill Suketake
and Suketomo for you.

You promised to give him
a huge amount of money

when you inherit the legacy.

Was that right?

Yes.

And you killed Shizuma

because you were
arguing about the money?

No.

Did you plan to kill Shizuma
right from the beginning?

You had that in mind
right from the beginning.

Of course not.

On the contrary, you
were threaten by Shizuma.

Isn't that right, Sukekiyo?

You couldn't be the murderer
of all the murder cases.

The murder case

of Wakabayashi
happened on April 19,

No...

But you only arrived
here on April 21.

I mean, I killed the three
family members of Inugami.

Chief,

did you hear what he said?

Unconsciously, he admitted

he was the demobilized
soldier appeared at Kashiwaya.

Yes.

When you were
demobilized at Hakata,

you knew from newspapers that

there was a fake Sukekiyo
in Inugami family.

You switched your
identity with that man.

In order to make
everything easier,

you covered your face
when you went to kashiwaya.

At 10pm that night,

you sneaked into Inugami mansion

and found the fake Sukekiyo.

As you expected, the fake
Sukekiyo was Aonuma Shizuma.

Shizuma insisted to revenge.

Both of you

must have a big argument then.

Both of you hid yourselves
when Suketake appeared.

Soon, Tamayo came too.

It was just like
what Tamayo told us.

And...

after Tamaya and Saruzo
left, Suketake was killed.

Both of you witnessed
the whole process.

Sukekiyo, it means

you saw the face
of the murderer.

You mean...

This man is not the murderer?

You wrote the confession letter

to cover up for the murderer.

You shouldn't keep
the secret anymore.

Besides,

maybe telling the truth

is a way of redemption
for the murderer.

This is Kindaichi.

Please come in.

Sorry for disturbing you.

May I help you?

Yes.

You know the body
found in the lake

was not Sukekiyo, right?

Yes.

I was informed about it.

The police have
arrested Sukekiyo.

Where is Sukekiyo?

Sukekiyo has become
the suspect of

the serial murder
cases of Inugamis.

Ridiculous.

There is no way
Sukekiyo is a murderer.

Indeed. Sukekiyo
is not the murderer.

The murderer is...

you.

Do you have any
proof to say that?

It's you...

who asked Wakabayashi
to read the will.

Me?

Although you bought
off Wakabayashi,

he got afraid after
reading the content.

That's why he asked me for help.

Shut up! Who do
you think you are?

Admit it, you
asked Wakabayashi...

How dare you enter
someone's house as you like?

You are not even a police.

First,

when Wakabayashi was killed,

I went to the harbour of Hakata.

Yeah.

That's why I was confused.

A criminal could commit a crime

without getting
near to the victim.

I went to visit your mother

at Iwaki Village yesterday.

I got to know your
address from Mr. Furudate.

Because I'd like to know more
details about Inugami Sahei.

Your mother

kept asking money from you.

She saw it at the
station by accident...

that you passed
cigarettes to Wakabayashi.

That was the day you
went off to Hakata.

She is not my mother.

No one would believe

a word she says.

After you killed Wakabayashi,

you killed Suketake too.

Do you know on that night,

Sukekiyo was hiding
underneath the observatory?

Sukekiyo?

He and Shizuma.

You were watching Suketake...

You approached him once
Tamayo and Saruzo left.

Sukekiyo...

After you left, Shizuma
threatened Sukekiyo

to do everything he says

if he doesn't want others to
know his mother was a murderer.

From that day onwards,

Sukekiyo became the
accomplice to Shizuma.

This could help your mother.

The crueller it is the better.

No one would have
doubted a woman did this.

On the second day,

when you saw Suketake's head

on the doll,

you must be shocked, huh?

The murder has no idea
who the accomplices are...

is one of the
characters in this case.

You, Takeko and Umeko

are fighting over the
legacy by all means.

In order to let
your son Sukekiyo

gets married with Tamayo,

and occupy the legacy,
you decided to kill.

But do you know that...

Tamayo is actually

the granddaughter of Mr. Sahei?

Noriko, the mother of Tamayo,

was the child of

Haruyo Nomomiya and Sahei.

That's what I think.

You have accomplished

something Sahei had
always wanted to do.

Let me...

Please let me see Sukekiyo!

Let me...

Please let me see Sukekiyo!

Mother...

Thank God you are all right...

When I heard

your troop collapsed in Burma,

I didn't want to live anymore.

But I must not
let you die alone.

That's the belief that
has been supporting me.

God must have heard my prayers.

I...

I didn't see you

for 5 years.

I could never forget

the day I saw you off to Nagano.

Sukekiyo,

why didn't you come back earlier

since you are alive?

It was my neglect

that caused the
collapse of my troop.

I have no face to
return to Japan.

I missed you so much

until I made a huge mistake.

I had mistaken Shizuma as you.

Forgive me...

That was an accident.

An accidental accident.

A few accidents
happened together.

Everyone,

everything happened here was
accumulated by the accidents.

But you need outstanding wisdom

to put all these
accidents together.

Aonumo Shizuma

got this wisdom through
the training in army.

It must be useful
on the battlefield.

When he was asked
for hand print,

Shizuma thought he has to let
the cat out of the bag this time.

So he switched identities
with Sukekiyo on the next day.

Sukekiyo wore the mask
and stayed at home.

Shizuma became the
demobilized soldier

to throw the headless
body into the lake.

Then he abandoned the
boat at Kannon Cape

and stayed at
Kashiwaya for a night.

When we did the matching of
hand prints on the next day,

it was the real Sukekiyo who made
the hand print, of course they matched.

On that night,

Sukekiyo and Shizuma
switched back again.

Sukekiyo did what Shizuma
said, he changed the clothes

and ran away before
he was fainted.

He threw the mask
away on purpose

to prove that
they didn't switch.

Before that day,

I was suspecting in my mind

if the young man next to me
was really my son.

When I got to know

that the hand prints matched,

I was so glad.

And I blamed myself
for suspecting my son.

On that night,

I invited my harp
teacher to come over.

If anything happen,

I...

I had no idea what I was doing.

No.

There is another person

controlling me to do this.

Ouch!

My Suketomo... how could you!

Takeko, calm down!

Suketomo who fought with
Sukekiyo in the empty house

returned in exhaustion.

Did Sukekiyo and Shizuma
put his body on the rooftop?

That's right.

Sukekiyo,

the string on Suketomo's neck...

Shizuma said he
wanted to make use

of the curse of three heirlooms.

Put the head of
first victim on the

Kiku(mum) doll, then
killed with harp.

But, Kindaichi,

according to the
testimony of Ms. Matsuko,

she was playing harp

during that time.

I went to meet the harp teacher.

Someone who has played
harp for 4 or 5 years

could differentiate if the
sound of harp is turbid.

When she asked me
to hear her playing,

I felt weird.

At first she was playing
pretty well at first,

but after she left for
a while and came back,

I could hear that her
pointing finger was wounded.

And I found out

she bore the pain
and continued to play

trying to hide it from me.

I made a decision then.

I would return to Inugami
family as Sukekiyo.

Everything in this
family belongs to me.

Tamayo, the legacy...

Everything belongs to me!

I defeated the Inugamis!

Shizuma!

Did you throw Shizuma's
body into the lake?

Takeko, Umeko,

please forgive me.

I have no way to run now.

Although he was our father,
he never loved us one day.

He hated us.

But in the end, we
still couldn't get away

from the grudge of father.

Mr. Kindaichi,

on the night of Suketake's wake,

who went into Tamayo's room?

Of course it's Shizuma.

Why?

I think he noticed
the plan of Tamayo.

He tried to take the pocket
watch with his fingerprints on it.

Tamayo had no idea
Sukekiyo was back.

We didn't find the pocket
watch on Suketake's body.

This is...

I don't know about fingerprints.

When it fell out from
his chest, I just...

Chief.

Yes?

Does Sukekiyo have
to go to jail too?

I think so.

He was still an accomplice

although he had
difficulties and reason.

Would it be a serious sentence?

Well...

Would he be sentenced to death?

I don't think so.

There is space for deliberation.

Tamayo.

Yes.

You

will wait for Sukekiyo

to be released from the jail,

right?

I will wait for him.

Really?

That's great.

The person who cut a
hole on Tamayo's boat

was you who read
the will, right?

Sukekiyo,

don't let Tamayo miss
her father anymore.

Oh no! Oh no!

Mother

Mother!

I am Sukekiyo, mother!

It's the tobacco, chief!

It's the same as the tobacco
that killed Wakabayashi.

Mother!

Mother...

This is monetary
gift, 3500 yen and

the transportation
fare, 467 yen.

Thank you.

Let me double confirm.

Thanks.

Thank you for your
great help, Kindaichi.

The amount is correct.
I'll give you a receipt.

No, it's okay.

I must give you.

I need to borrow your pen.

Go ahead.

This was really
a mysterious case.

There's no way to find
out the truth if there

was only the general
police investigation.

If I could find out
the clues earlier,

there won't be so
many victims involved.

I'm truly sorry.
Please forgive me.

The chief, Tamayo and
the waitress of the hotel

want to have a
farewell party for you.

My wife is preparing it now.

I am not used to farewell.

That's troublesome...

Don't worry about it.

Just a little of our courtesy.

Hey...

Is it ready yet?

Thank you for everything.

Here, it's here...

Hey!

Are we too early or what?

We gather at the police station.

Well...

Saruzo, you have come too.

I can't forget Kindaichi.

I bring him some local products.

What is it?

Is Kindaichi not here yet?

Well...

That man just came
out of nowhere.
