Who's that?

You there.

This area is for authorized personnel only.

What is this?

Her world melting is progressing faster than I thought.

What's happening?

What happened?

What?

Hey, how did--

This is...

Hey.

What is this place?

Like I know.

F-For now, stay near me.

Assistant Director Togo, can you hear me?

Something's wrong here.

What are you doing?

No one told you to get up!

Chief Hayaseura!

Why you--

Mr. Narihisago!

What's going on, sir?

Nothing to worry about.

Stay calm.

Don't!

Sir, what are you doing?

Arrest him! He's John Walker!

Akihito Narihisago.

I truly feel sorry for what happened to you, including this.

But it has to be me

who kills me!

It's a bit awkward to confess this to you three.

But to tell you the truth, I've never actually killed anyone.

After all, I'm an officer of the law,

and whether you believe it or not, I have my own sense of justice.

In accordance with it, I'm going to turn the Kura into a giant Mizuhanome,

so that it can investigate on a much larger scale.

And then I'll retire.

Momoki can succeed me.

There's no justice in what you've done!

I created the Kura and caught many serial killers.

Sure, I did create some of them.

But as long as the Kura endures,

my liability will be balanced in no time,

and better outcomes will be obtained.

And so... it is also in recompense...

...that I kill myself.

"In Operation" "Well Source" "Takuhiko Hayaseura"

"In Operation" "Well Source" "Takuhiko Hayaseura" Dammit!

Some recompense!

He intends to live on in his well as a brilliant detective!

Mr. Narihisago, what about your wound?

It's fine! I'll pursue him even if it kills me!

Tamotsu Fukuda, come with us!

What?

No thanks.

Move the body! Come on!

Fine, fine.

I'm really getting fed up with--

This is Kaeru.

And my name is Uraido.

It is I, the brilliant detective, who will solve the mystery of Kaeru's death.

And it is I who killed her.

And the reason this little bitch made it so easy to solve the mystery and be free

is that she wants me to see this world's secret.

By seeing this face, I remember who I am.

My name is Takuhiko Hayaseura.

And by forcing me to remember my true name,

the little bitch probably intends to trap me in a well storm.

Too bad for her I'm already dead, so my id well won't be updating.

Just as I predicted.

Thanks to my repeated forays into Kiki Asukai's mind,

we practically share an unconscious.

My id well, the id wells I created,

and the id wells I've never seen from the unknown serial killers of the world--

all are laid out in this world.

You heard him.

Ms. Kaeru's case is solved. Now what do we do?

Now what? Well--

You brilliant detectives hiding over there. Do come out.

He saw us?!

It's as if he knew we'd be here.

He vanished.

Mr. Sakaido.

Dammit. I don't really want to do this, but...

You.

My, my.

Tamotsu Fukuda really isn't here.

Then I have a plan.

He ran? Again?

If that's a property of this world, any brilliant detective can do it, too.

Wait.

Are you all okay? Any injuries?

No, but... is this... reality?

It doesn't seem to be, but...

An id well, perhaps?

But we've never investigated any such well.

To begin with, only killers can enter an id well.

And we don't appear to have transformed into brilliant detectives.

And we remember.

Nor is Kaeru present.

Kiki Asukai.

She was walking the halls of the Kura.

That's it! If we assume that's the Mizuhanome's true form...

In other words, the Mizuhanome itself is Kiki Asukai.

Then of course the well within the well would be hers.

This is happening because she's been released from the machine.

Remember the incident from the night she vanished from the hospital...

The nurses' mass coma incident.

Exactly.

Couldn't we all be unconscious and sharing the same dream, just like them?

Look!

Boulders?

Maybe they're still far away?

No! We just don't have a point of reference!

Run!

Hey, what do you think happens if we die here?

Think we wake up?

Good question!

Four of the thirteen nurses are still in a coma.

So, there's a 69% chance to wake up! Practically 70%!

Wanna test it?

No, I'll pass!

I don't like my odds!

Director Momoki!

Did the Wellside respond?

No dice.

No one knows the situation inside.

We only have security footage from directly after the incident began.

Look.

This is...

It's happening again!

Again?! What do you mean?

It's Ms. Asukai.

What? The Challenger victim you were searching for?

I had suspected she was kidnapped and used in the development of the Mizuhanome.

I never imagined she was under our noses!

Hey, what the hell is all this?

A Mizuhanome... The entire Kura has become one giant Mizuhanome!

Chief Hayaseura.

Yeah.

He was busy while we were in shock over the arrest warrant.

Seems he entered his own id well.

He must intend to live there.

If he's in a well, we can't get him.

In order to quell this situation...

If this phenomenon is due to Kiki Asukai...

We'll have to shelter her.

Shelter?

Like whisk her off to a hospital?

No...

We'll put her back in the Mizuhanome.

There may be no place for her besides the Mizuhanome.

But how?

Look!

We can't get close to her.

If we storm the Kura, we'll end up like them.

We'll take countermeasures, of course.

The last time this happened, someone was able to get in and take her.

After repeated experiments and preparation.

What is this place?

Be careful, Hijiriido!

We can't just handle this with our brilliant detective skills.

That's correct, Ms. Hijiriido.

No matter how brilliant you are, this place's secret is beyond you.

So I'll just tell you!

Your name is Koharu Hondomachi.

And this is your id well!

Hijiriido!

Follow him! Before you're caught up in this storm!

Go to the lightning well!

Go and remember!

Who you are,

and what you have to do for the world!

Ouch.

Nice catch.

Tamotsu Fukuda?!

Is this it?

Yeah. The helmet that was used during the nurses' mass coma incident.

A prototype Mizuhanome, you might say.

We're seizing this as evidence.

B-But!

Now, let's get going.

We don't have a court order, after all.

Before we go...

...commandeer some drugs, too.

Fukuda!

Here I am.

You saved me. Thank you.

That's one impressive memory you've got.

You memorized the number of steps to Kaeru?

I both love and hate numbers.

Now then. What's next?

I'm going after him, of course.

What about you?

I'm not a brilliant detective right now.

I can't keep up with you, and I have no reason to follow.

But I did like your drive to kill.

I'd like to spend some more time there.

That kind of creeps me out.

Oh, there's a thought.

Since you both love and hate numbers, how do you feel about seven?

Hmm. It's not a bad number, but I dislike people who like it.

It's pretentious.

What do you mean?

For just a prime number,

it has all this meaning and storytelling attached.

It's become a number with an exceedingly nice appearance.

Oh, very interesting.

See ya.

Oh, come on!

One...

...hole...

Fukuda?!

I meant to shout, "Here's my chance!" just now.

But it came out all funny, huh.

One hole.

That's very important.

One-track mind.

No dirty jokes.

What?

I, uh, that's not what I meant.

Nahoshi Inami!

Thank you, Koharu Hondomachi.

I'm glad I got to save you.

"Here's my chance!"... I just had two wishes granted.

I'm gonna tell you a secret.

I stopped seeing your hole.

When something's missing, or removed, or fragmented, that's not how I see it.

It looks whole.

And so, with Nahoshi Inami,

that I managed to find her...

...was no coincidence.

In that case...

I didn't get to see what it's like,

but I'm sure you'd like my id well.

Inside of you, my hole is filled...

That makes three wishes granted.

Three...

A fine number.

You killed my man, and I've killed yours.

I guess that makes us even.

He wasn't my man.

After everything, it feels like my wish will be granted, too.

This will let me see Kazuta, right?

No, don't!

Kazuta.

Hey, Inami.

You got even prettier.

But you need to hide.

There's a super scary monster.

K-Ka... Ka--

Kazu--

Hondomachi.

You remembered, didn't you, Mr. Narihisago?

Yeah.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Do you think that if we get out of this well,

all the deaths here will be undone?

Who knows.

But I have this feeling

the people who want to live will come back to life.

They have to live.

Yeah.

I'm not going to die here either.

Yeah.

Just wait, cane bastard.

The brilliant detectives you made will send you to true hell.

No, that's too dark!

Let's hit him with the spark of life, instead!

Huh?

Well, let's go with that, then.

Okay!

Sorry.

The machine at the chest is too tight.

We couldn't get the size right on short notice.

It's fine.

We'll be monitoring your vitals and other info from here.

The same info will appear on the display on your helmet.

Okay. Understood.

Momoki.

What if she refuses to be put back in the Mizuhanome?

I... have to protect the lives of my subordinates.

Take command, Mr. Matsuoka.

Got it.

Go get it done.

See you again soon.
