SIX DAYS BEFORE THE MASS STABBING

Thank you.

Takigawa said he killed Mazaki
when he came back for those gloves.

And the samples?

It contains footage
of Mazaki hiding the samples.

Looks like he was going to send

copies of the USB drive to the media.

Where did he hide the samples?

They were buried under
an apartment building construction site.

In other words,

those samples will never
see the light of day.

So that man was only after the money.

In any case,

you have my appreciation.

Your fee will be paid
through the same route.

You should leave Japan
as soon as possible.

It's not over yet.

NOTICE OF CONSTRUCTION PLANS
ROYAL VILLA

TITUS FOODS

Those five people

saw the "Titus Foods" label
on those boxes of samples.

The press will undoubtedly air the video
on February 2nd, the inspection date.

When that happens,
those witnesses might come forward

to say they saw a man getting rid
of the samples.

That would ruin us.

Yes.

If this had been sent to the press.

Luckily, it's in our hands.

We're also the only ones
who know what those five people look like.

There are two types
of people in the world.

Those who are capable

and those who aren't.

People who create the framework of society

and people like those witnesses,

who are fated to become
mere cogs of the social order.

Your lives are about to be destroyed

by those very dregs of society.

Are you fine with that?

We still have a hand we can play.

Find those five people and kill them.

However, that video

zoomed in on all of their faces.

ACCUSATION LETTER

He had a partner.

"Kunio Sasaki" wasn't just one person?

Yeah.

Who could it be?

Nakasako.

JANUARY 28
FIVE DAYS AFTER THE MASS STABBING

- I'll be back.
- Okay.

Wait, look at this.

These are the race records
of Mazaki's high school team.

Look, that's Mazaki.

This is Sugita.

The one Emilio Suzuki wrote about
in his postcard to Mazaki.

And he was a cyclist.

If this is that Sugita,

maybe he knows where Mazaki is?

But we don't know
where this Sugita is, right?

- Yeah…
- Right.

Don't you read Aokei?

You don't know him?

- Katsuo Sugita.
- Sugita…

He's a famous cyclist.

The one who quit ten years ago
because of a scandal.

Yeah.

Aren't those types of scandals
your specialty?

Well, ten years ago,

I was a straitlaced TV director.

You look into it.

See ya.

Ouch…

Yes?

You idiot! You dare to ignore my call?

Come to the station. ASAP.

I don't care where you are.
Get here in five.

- You hear me, Soma?
- Got it.

He sounds extremely pissed off.

That's just how police show they care.

I'm going out. Be sure to lock up.

Hello? Do…

Do you have the contact information
for Katsuo Sugita?

He retired ten years ago.

Yes. Yes, I know.

I understand you can't provide
personal information.

But I…

I'm his son.

- Hey.
- Hello.

Receipts? Someone in there
need to fill them out?

They told me
the assistant chief inspector is inside.

It's okay to go in.

Assistant Chief Inspector Ueda.
He wants you to fill out fake receipts.

Please, not so loud.

Hello, sir.

Please fill these out.

There's a lot more than usual.

I apologize. The transportation chief's
promotion created more expenses.

Come to the detective's bureau later
to get them.

Yes, sir. Thank you.

Then I'll come by later.

Why don't you stop doing
this kind of thing?

It's got nothing to do with you.

It does.

Those fake receipts are funneling
our bureau's budget

into gifts and dinners for the brass,
so yes, it affects me.

Excuse me, sir.

A member of the victim's family,
a Mr. Mamiya,

lodged a complaint about you.

I told you not to conduct
needless investigations.

That's insubordination.

I will be more careful not to from now on.
Now if you'll excuse me.

I'm not done talking.

I'm sure you're very busy
with those fake receipts.

It takes a lot of time to change
the handwriting and stamp them all.

Good luck with it.

Hold it, Soma.

Stop.

You're being transferred to the
Community Affairs Investigation Division.

The detective in charge
of new recruits there is retiring.

You'll be replacing him.

It's a promotion. Congratulations.

I got a promotion
despite my insubordination?

How lucky for me.

You've been looking for an excuse
to get rid of me, haven't you?

Ever since I objected to
writing those receipts.

You'll be transferred next month.

Don't show your face in this bureau again.

Sir.

Detectives don't retire until March.

The handover is in February.

I'll be taking leave in February.

You don't have a month's worth of leave.

I have more than a month's worth.

Besides, we usually get over a week off
when a task force is disbanded.

You barely attended any
of the investigation meetings.

If you won't approve my leave,
I'll report you to the Equity Commission

for transferring me because I oppose
what you're doing with those receipts.

Is that a threat?

Pretty effective, isn't it?

I should've gotten rid of you sooner.

It's been a pleasure working with you,

though I'm sure
it wasn't the same for you.

Finally got the boot, huh?

How did you hear about it before me?

It's 'cause you went barking up
the wrong tree in that mass stabbing case.

You're the one who said
there's something more to the case.

Everyone writes fake receipts
in this station.

It's how they test your loyalty
to the organization.

And you refused to do it.

Of course they'd hate you.

You write those receipts to prove
your loyalty and they still hate you.

How many days did you get off?

Are you going to quit
once you've used up your leave?

You're close to retirement, aren't you?

A cop like you shouldn't be
in Community Affairs Investigations.

Do you plan to milk your position
as a cop by extorting money

from illegal brothels and
undocumented immigrants until you retire?

Do you plan on sticking to
that uptight attitude and getting shafted

for the rest of your life?

You became a cop to get revenge on cops.

At least, that's how it looks to me.

TITUS FOODS HEADQUARTERS

That kid…

Please leave a message after the beep.

Hello?

Where are you now?
You're not at my place, are you?

He ran off somewhere again.

SUGITA AUTO REPAIR SHOP

RÉSUMÉ
MASAKI ISHII

23 years old?

Why do you want to work here?

Well, I heard about this place
from Shogo Mazaki.

You know Shogo?

Yes, I used to work for him.

But last year,

he said he was closing his business.

Then I remembered that he told me
to come here if I needed a job.

He said you're a good mechanic.

Well, he's right. I am good.

He came by the other day
to get the truck he left here.

- Really?
- He didn't tell you?

- No, I haven't heard anything about that.
- I see.

But did he change his number?

I tried calling him to tell him I was
coming here today, but he didn't pick up.

I don't think so.
I think he still has the same number.

Okay.

Right. There was a guy
named Emilio here, right?

What?

You know about Emilio too?

Yeah, Mr. Mazaki told me about him.

Said he got a postcard from him.

That's right. He did some work

for Shogo before he went back
to his country.

I see.

By the way,

have you done this kind of work before?

Yes, just for a little while
at an old job.

Okay. What was your name again?

Masaki Ishii.

Ishii. Okay, go take a look at that car.

Sure.

- In the back?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- Back there.

So?

This, right?

How long will it take to fix it?

This will take… about half a day.

There's no way it could be fixed
that fast, Shuji Shigeto.

SHUJI
MATSUMOTO CITY, NAGANO

That damn kid…

Sorry it took me so long.

I didn't think
Matsumoto City was this far.

Shuji's at Sugita's auto shop.

Okay.

I need to go buy something.

We might be too late if we don't hurry.

I'm sorry.

Get out.

- I'm sorry.
- I almost crashed.

I'm sorry.

You ain't Japanese?

You listening to me?

I said I almost crashed.

Shogo's friend will be here
to get you soon.

Yes, that's what I'm talking about.

Sugita's business cards and phone number.

- Kochi Queens Hotel.
- Emilio.

Hey.

Why does he have a picture of Shuji?

This is his driver's license photo.
Only the police has access to those.

But the police are the last people
we can trust right now.

That's pretty convincing
coming from a detective.

I've barely been able to keep
the lights on at the shop for years now.

If I hand you over to Shogo's friend,
those lights will never turn off.

I was surprised

when the club called me
for the first time in ten years.

But what?

They said a woman who secretly had my baby
died from cancer.

You really went
out of your way to find me.

He's… gonna kill you.

I don't know what you did,
but he said he'll let it go

if you make things right.

The second you hand me over…

he'll kill you too.

That man told me

that you have it in your head
that he's after your life.

I bet he…

also killed Mazaki.

He didn't.

Shogo just called me not too long ago.

From Kochi, right?

Go look up…

"Shikoku Daily News, Shogo Mazaki."

Shikoku Daily News. Do it now.

SHIKOKU DAILY NEWS

CAR FOUND SUBMERGED IN KOCHI BAY

A DIVER DISCOVERED A CAR SUBMERGED
IN THE WATERS OF KOCHI PREFECTURE'S…

So? Did you find the article?

That guy found you

while he was going after Mazaki.

Forget it. Just get out of here.

- I can't. No.
- You need to get away.

- Go to the police.
- Damn it.

Just go.

Fine.

Then we're getting out of here together.

- It's even riskier for you to be with me.
- Get in.

Come on.

I'll be okay.

Okay, fine.

Here, it's your phone.

I'll call the cops.

I'm at the rendezvous point,
but there's no one here.

Oh no, no, no.

Soma.

Where is he now?

Ah.

Shuji's GPS is back on.

He's at that observation deck.

Shuji might not be the one
who turned his phone back on.

If you see anything suspicious,
get out of here.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

You okay? Can you talk?

What happened? Where's Sugita?

I'm alive… thanks to Sugita.

Let's go to the hospital.

Sure,

but I'm more worried about Sugita.

Anyway, just drive.

Where to?

I'm fine.

Sugita Auto Repair Shop.

It's kind of funny.

A detective running away from the cops.

This is all your fault!

He's right. You screwed up.

This time and last time too.

As if you're any better.

- What?
- That's how you act after we saved you?

A detective blacklisted by the cops.

A lousy freelance writer

who quit being a TV director.

You're both living however you please.

So you think it's okay
for you to do the same?

Yeah.

Is that how you got
sent to a juvenile detention center?

He went to juvie as a teen,

and his friend

was sent to one for extreme offenders.

Extreme offenders?
That's for serious crimes.

He blinded one of his friends.

Shuji was never the type
to get along with...

He was my friend!

He was my friend.

SEVEN YEARS AGO

What the hell? Quit it.

POLICE

You're both coming with me to the station.

They attacked us first.

You can tell me all about it
at the station.

Shuji.

Yesterday, I went
and got back at those guys for you.

Did you have to go this far?

You're my bro. It's payback.

I told you not to tell Katsunori.

My bad.

I'm gonna go buy something to drink.

- What do you guys want?
- Forget it.

Aren't you broke?

That Takahata Clinic hasn't paid
the tab for the takeout

they ordered from your place. Right?

Aren't doctors rich?

Why won't they pay for their soba?

They kept saying
there was a patient waiting,

or they didn't have smaller bills on them.

What? It wasn't just once?

It's fine. I'm still getting my allowance.

I'm good.

Okay.

Should I go beat them up?

Don't.

You don't know how to hold back.

We can't just let them get away with it.

You're our bro.

What terrible acting.

Yeah. Tsutomu Takahata.

I caught him molesting my girlfriend.

Why the hell would I call you
just to lie about that?

I was gonna take him to the cops,

but he told me to talk to his parents.

Look, I also want to settle this quietly

for the sake of your son's future.

Shit. Who'd actually do it?

Did she really bring three million yen?

Told you that old lady would do it.

- Did she leave it?
- Can't see.

Hey, Katsunori.

Come on.

Do you have a different style?

- Yes, one moment.
- Okay.

This, and this one too.

Yo, you're spending way too much.

- We have a million each.
- Don't say that so loud.

That kind of money is meant to be spent.

One,

two, three,

four…

Just tell me what you guys did.

I'll make it so you were
the only perpetrator.

Look, I'll let your friends go.

Then I'll be going.

Get home safe.

POLICE

- What did you say?
- It's okay.

I made it sound like it was all me.

I also said I only got 100,000 yen.

- So it's okay.
- No, it's not.

You guys did it for me.

I can't get you two in trouble too.

- Never let Katsunori know, got it?
- Yeah.

Please stop
with this ridiculous accusation.

That was the statement we received.

They said you paid 100,000 yen,

but is that really true?

Wasn't it more than that?

I did not pay anyone anything.

Besides, I don't know
what you're talking about.

Goodbye.

That's enough.

Don't make more work for yourself.

But it's fraud.

They tricked her into thinking
her son molested someone.

I'll have them file a police report.

A police report?

But the Takahatas are denying everything.

I'll make them admit the truth.

Would they really say
they believed it when their son,

the future director of their clinic,
was accused of molesting a girl?

There were no mistakes
in your paperwork today.

As usual, that was the only thing
you did perfectly.

Of course. Otherwise, I'd die of shame
when I undergo the detective training.

Please recommend me
for a promotion to detective.

I already asked the chief.

I put in a request for the station chief
to write your recommendation.

But only one or two guys from our station
get picked every year.

Shuji!

Yohei's getting pummeled.

Sorry.

Katsunori!

Katsunori! Katsunori!

What the fuck are you doing?

He ratted us out.

No, he didn't!

He confessed to save our asses!

You okay?

You okay? Don't talk.

You'll be okay.

Katsunori! Katsunori!

Stop!

Get a grip!

All right, that's enough.

You guys really went all out, huh?

You. You're under arrest for assault.

It was you…

You lied to Katsunori.

You're also under arrest for assault.

Shuji…

I'm sorry…

Sorry…

That shitty cop set us up.

He arrested you?

Didn't you stop the fight?

I stopped caring after that.

I just signed the statement
that was written in that shithead's words.

That's how he got promoted…

and became a detective.

And that's why you hate cops.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Why are you apologizing?

That dumb cop never even said it,
so why are you saying sorry...

I'm really sorry.

I also did things…

I wasn't proud of
because I wanted to be a detective.

If someone looked
even a little suspicious,

I'd stop them and interrogate them.

I even searched them by force

if I thought they had drugs on them.

And it wasn't just once or twice.

- I did it over and over again.
- Yeah, that's the type of guy you were.

You've always been full of justice

and an overachiever.

But you started to question what justice
means to cops when you became one. Right?

And that's how you turned into
a hardheaded, stubborn detective.

Which is why
the other detectives shun you.

This is how things have ended up.

Shuji.

You know what I mean, right?

Yarimizu. Can I use your camera?

Sure.

How's your head?

It's fine.

Use this to clean your face.

Okay…

Wait here for me.

It's dangerous. Step back.

Evening, Detective.

Stay back.

Please stay back.

It's dangerous here.

Anyone inside?

The fire spread too fast
for the firefighters to confirm.

- Was it arson?
- They said it most likely is.

You shouldn't leave him alone.

He said he won't move on his own anymore.

What about Sugita?

Don't know.

- I'm going to take a look over there.
- Okay.

Hello?

Mr. Sugita?

Shuji Shigeto?

Are you okay?

Yeah. Somehow.

Your auto shop…

is on fire.

I see…

What did Mazaki ask you to do?

He told me to get rid of his truck
if he wasn't back by February 2nd.

Where's… the truck?

Watch your feet.

I think this is it.

"Titus Foods."

It's the truck I saw that day.

Let's get out of here.

Come on.

ONE PERSON ALSO DIED IN MARCH

These are articles on

Mine are all about people harmed by drugs.

This one's full
of food poisoning lawsuits.

FOOD POISONING AT FAMOUS RESTAURANT
LED TO DEATH

Was Mazaki looking to file a lawsuit?

For the Melted Face Syndrome?

No.

He was looking into what happened
after the court cases.

To find out how much money
and how long they took.

Now we know.

Why he made this written accusation

and tried to threaten Titus Foods.

Shuji. Yarimizu.

What now?

What?

What?

You're finally starting to look human.

Let's finish what he started.
