Couldn't sleep?

Not really.

Should we skip it today?

Don't worry about it.
I'll make time again.

No, let's do it today.

But are you sure?
If it's not him...

I'm sure.

Marie, it's almost time.

I'll go check.

Should I go in first?

Yeah.

Laval is there. Ready?

Ready.

Put that away.

Hello.

Are you in trouble?

Are you looking for someone?

Do you understand French?

English?

Well, the manager is here,
so if you need something...

Who are you?

What do you want?

My daughter-she was killed.

What?

"Marie Bachelet, 8 years old"

"Body found in the Senart Forest"

"Approximately one week post-mortem"

"16 stab wounds all over her body"

"Fractures on her right wrist
and left middle finger,"

"indicating life response"

"Severe injuries to abdomen and head"

"Multiple wounds
and subcutaneous bruising"

"Cause of death: massive blood loss"

"Loss of one-third of her brain,
80% of organs removed..."

"Face unrecognizable,
identified through dental records"

What does that have to do with me?

You were the accountant
for the Minard Foundation, correct?

The foundation was dissolved long ago.

I have nothing to do with it anymore.

My daughter was kidnapped
by a member of the foundation.

It wasn't me.

Then who was it?
There's no way you wouldn't know.

Why would the foundation
kidnap your daughter?

Don't play dumb.

I didn't do it.
I don't know that girl.

What are you doing? Stop it.

What do you want?

Confess. Do you want to die here?

No...

Don't rush. We have time.

I just scared him a little.

Hey.

You'll regret this.

Hey, someone, help me!

It's no use.
No one lives nearby.

We need to go.

Is it time?

Sayoko, how can I ever thank you?

It's been a long road,
but we're almost there.

Yeah.

Do you have headaches?

Yes.

And nausea too.

It's probably due to anxiety.

Staying in an environment
where you don't speak the language

can provoke reactions in anyone.

Don't worry.

I will prescribe some sedatives.

Thank you very much.

Have you been living
in France for long?

What?

Don't you have anxiety yourself, doctor?

It happens to me too.

What do you do about it?

Do you talk with other Japanese?

Or do you have access
to powerful medications...

That doctors can easily obtain?

Mr. Yoshimura.

Yes?

Have you ever had
any medication allergies?

No.

I will prescribe a week of treatment.

How do you manage, doctor?

It's a bit complicated.

Sorry for bringing this up.

Where are you from, doctor?

I was born in Japan.

From Tokyo.

And your family?

My father is in Tokyo.

- And your mother?
- My mother passed away.

I see.

I'm sorry.

I was inappropriate.

Why did you come here?

I came to pursue a dream.

And eventually I stayed.

That's impressive.

To follow a dream for so long.

This treatment.

You will take a pill now.

I have what you need in stock.

Very well.

Take it.

Are you sure it's not poison?

I'm joking.

Hey.

Hey!

I know you can hear me.

Answer me.

Hey.

I need to go to the bathroom.

Please.

Fine.

Do you expect me to go here?

You look familiar.

We've definitely met somewhere.

Haven't we?

If we have, just say so.

Maybe I can help you.

I'm on your side.

I'm sorry about your daughter.

That's why I want to help.

Please, let me go to the bathroom.

I'm going to wet myself.

It's... number two. Please.

This isn't something
that can be brushed off...

...as a "mistaken identity."

Hey, are you listening?

You two better remember this.

I'll clean you up.

If you stay like that, you'll get sick.

Stop it.

Should we give him food?

It'd be a problem if he died too soon.

"Marie Bachelet, 8 years old"

"Body found in the forest of S�nart"

"Deceased for approximately one week"

"16 stab wounds on the entire body"

"Psychiatric Department -
Consultation Room"

Is something wrong?

No, I'm fine. Thank you.

I just finished my consultation
and thought I'd rest a bit.

Is Dr. Durand your attending physician?

Yes.

Are you Mr. Bachelet?

Yes.

Allow me to introduce myself.
I am Sayoko Niijima.

I'm a psychiatrist here.

Do you have five minutes?

Are you Bachelet?

Isn't that right?

What?

Albert Bachelet.

I remember seeing that name
on the foundation's roster.

So?

You were a member of the circle,
weren't you?

What are you talking about?

Your name was on the roster.

I just had some acquaintances there.

What do you mean?

What do you mean by "circle"?

I was with the foundation
a long time ago too,

but that's unrelated.

Tell me.

It was a circle
focused on child welfare.

It was formed by volunteers
from the Minard Foundation.

Child welfare?

A facility.

Did you know about the facility?

And about the trafficking of children?

That's just a rumor.

Is it, really?

If it's true,
then the mastermind must be Guerin.

That's nonsense.

I heard that unsold children
were killed.

Whether he did it himself...

But it's something that couldn't happen
without Guerin's orders.

Do you have any proof?

You should know.

You were investigating the foundation.

You reached out to him,
trying to sell information to the press.

What happened between you and Guerin?
Why did you leave?

Well?

Albert.

You said that this guy was the culprit.

Who's Guerin?
I haven't heard about him.

I don't want to talk about it.

Why not?

He's a scumbag.

But he has power,
and no one dared oppose him.

Everyone was under his control.

So you tried to get close to him
and join the group?

No, I infiltrated them.

To sell stories to the press?

No, that's not it.

It was an investigation.

If something interesting came up,
I'd report on it.

I'm a journalist.

And what did you find?

Nothing.

It was all just rumors.

Then what's the issue?

There isn't one.

You fled from the foundation.
You must've uncovered some secret.

You escaped, and as retaliation,
your daughter was killed.

It's your fault.

Stop it!

So the circle was real, wasn't it?

Yes.

But the rumor about
child trafficking was false.

What about Guerin?

I haven't exposed anything.

It's a misunderstanding.

If I explain it to Guerin,
he'll understand.

Is that so?

Do you really need an explanation?

You want revenge, don't you?

I'm sorry for involving you, Sayoko.

If Guerin's involved, it's dangerous.

Our lives could be at stake.

After coming this far,
you're giving up?

No way...

Think carefully.

What do you want to do?

What are you afraid of?

If you need me, I'll help.

Just say what you want to do.

Is it a problem if I stay with you?

You don't want my help?

That's not it.

If you don't want it...

Just say so.

I'm sorry, Sayoko.

We'll do this together, right?

Let's find Guerin.

What's that?

Is it Guerin's location?

Yes, it is.

He's not in Paris.

His dream was to live
in the countryside.

What are you doing?

Some associates are coming over.

We'll cross-check
the information about Guerin.

You're bringing them here?
Are you out of your mind?

You know what kind of man Guerin is,
right?

Do you think he'll spill anything?

Mr. Guerin.

Is anyone there?

Quite a catch.

The rabbits are...

You have impressive skills.

I can teach you shooting.

No, that kind of stuff isn't for me.

Here.

Thank you, Michel.

Alright.

See you around.

Mr. Guerin.

Take care.

You too.

Who are you?
What are you doing in my house?

I'm Albert Bachelet,
from the foundation.

Bachelet?

Ah, Albert, is it?

It's been a long time.

Why are you here?

Sorry to intrude.
We had no other way.

No other way? For what?

Could you come with us?

What for?

There's no time to explain.

And you are?

An associate.

Pierre Guerin.

Former head of the Minard Foundation.

Your notorious reputation precedes you.

No matter where you hide,
you'll be found eventually.

You must be ready
to face the consequences.

Ah, I see.

The mistress of a disgraced executive,
here for revenge?

She has nothing
to do with the foundation.

Then why bring up such a topic?

That's...

Mr. Guerin?

I heard something-are you alright?

Who are you people?

Albert, I get it.

Put that thing away.

Put it in here?

Ah, damn.

To think I'd be dealing
with this at my age.

We did it.

Hurry.

Well, Laval.

To meet you again
in these circumstances...

Damn, not again.

My daughter-you killed her.

What?

He...

He didn't say.

He said "he fled the foundation,
afraid of you."

Afraid of me? Ridiculous.

Is that supposed to be irony?

You threatened him, didn't you?

To keep him from exposing your secrets.

What are you talking about?

The secrets of the Circle.

What Circle? What secrets?

Albert, explain this.

He's the one who said it.

Were you investigating the foundation?

No, I was just gathering information.

Did you find anything?

Nothing.

Isn't that right?

Listen, Albert.

I thought of you as a friend.

I hope you felt the same.

Yes.

Then why would you treat
a friend like this?

No...

I just don't understand, Mr. Guerin.

What's the real truth?

Trust me.

We've been friends for years.

I'll tell you the truth.
They sold children overseas...

and disposed those who couldn't be sold.
That's the truth.

You must be insane.

He tried to expose it to the media
but fled in fear of retaliation.

You kidnapped his daughter
and killed her as an example.

Did you fill his head
with such nonsense?

No, I didn't.

Your story is completely absurd.

What did you do?

Be honest about your own mistakes.

I did nothing wrong.
I was abducted without explanation.

They treated me terribly...

Honestly.

Miss, do you understand?

Miss.

I don't know what your goal is,
but I'm innocent.

Please, let me go.

Your eyes-like a snake's.

We'll end things here for today.

Who's that woman?

She seems to be Japanese.

I may be confused, but I'm not lying...

No matter what they say,
our objective doesn't change.

Isn't that right?

Yes.

Hey, I need to use the restroom.

Albert, are you listening?

Let me go to the restroom.

It's useless.

What is?

Asking won't help.

Please, let me go to the restroom.

At least let me have that much.

Are you stripping me of my dignity?

What on earth is this?

I've had enough.

Enough already!

Come here.

Don't think you'll get away with this.

Drink while you can.

Couldn't sleep again?

Yeah.

You're impressive, always so calm.

Not really.

Is that so?

Yes.

Do you think we can see this through?

Of course.

Otherwise, it's meaningless.

Who knows what will happen...

Albert.

I'm sorry.

Alright?

It's only a matter of time now.

Don't be swayed by Guerin's words.

Just a little more,
this is the critical moment.

Right.

"Marie Bachelet, 8 years old."

"Body found in the Senard Forest,
deceased for about a week."

"Sixteen stab wounds
on the entire body."

"Fractures in the right wrist
and left middle finger."

"Signs of life were present."

"Severe injuries
to the abdomen and head."

"Multiple wounds
and subcutaneous hemorrhages."

The medication didn't work at all.

Really?

I think it's the end for me.

All the French seem to be crooks.

And the interpreters lie constantly.

Everyone seems to want to see me fail.

Do you want me to prescribe
stronger medication?

I never had an ideal like you had.

I didn't follow a dream, like you have.

What should I do?

Maybe you should go back to Japan.

If I go back to Japan...

It will really be the end for me.

The end?

What are you talking about?

Is that something that scares you?

The real nightmare
is when things never end, right?

You already know that, Mr. Yoshimura.

You can do it.

Yes.

I guess you're right.

I understand.

Sayoko?

Sayoko, can you hear me?

Aren't you at your computer?

It's night here.

Is it afternoon at your place?

I don't have anything special to say.

Can you hear me?

Sayoko, show yourself.

I have a suggestion.

I've known him for a little while now,

but I'm getting tired of this.

Shall we put an end to this game?

And how would we do that?

Frame someone as the real culprit.

But for what purpose?

Don't you want to be free?

What's your goal?

Anyone will do.

If we give you a new enemy,
you'll be freed.

Is there no one?
A suitable person?

Christian would be perfect.

Christian Sammy?
The head of security?

He's a scumbag.

Yeah, he really is.

He treated women horribly.
A beast.

He's a perfect fit as the culprit.

Alright, if you want him,
then he's the one.

Let's make sure our stories match up.

Christian Sammy? Who's that?

He was the head of security.

You may not know this,
but he's a real pervert.

That's right.

I was against keeping him
at the foundation.

I knew he'd eventually do something.

And this is the result...

I'm sorry about your daughter.

I feel responsible
for not taking action.

I never thought he would go that far.

To kill a young girl.

He must have found your daughter's name
in the foundation's records.

What a horrible story.

Christian Sammy... so you've found him.

Let's bring him in.

But we'll need restraints for two.
We have to clear the area.

Unfortunately.

You decide who survives.

Hey.

This is not what we agreed on.

What is this farce?

We find Christian,
then compare our testimonies.

Do as you wish.

What should I do?

Monsieur Guerin will guide you.

The foundation's documents
should still be stored in the warehouse.

You can doubt it if you like,

but is there another way?

Sayoko.

Shall we go?

You saved me.

I couldn't get in touch
with the foundation.

The storage fees are paid,

but since it's been untouched
for a year,

if things stay like this, it might...

Be disposed of.

Here you go.

Call me when you're done.

Look at the man on the right.

Is that Christian?

Yes.

What is this?

I don't know.

It's probably a medical specimen
collected by the foundation.

Was human trafficking real?

Did they kill the leftover children?

Albert, listen carefully.

You're being manipulated by a woman.

I have nothing to do with your daughter,
or Laval, or Christian.

You've been fed lies.

How do you explain this?

It's just a specimen. It's nothing.

Albert.

You'll be noticed.

Right.

I killed Guerin. So what?

I returned the key.
The caretaker didn't notice.

That's good.

Is it Christian?

Do you know him?

No.

Look closely.

I recognize this gym.

Who are you? Who sent you?

Are you alright, Sayoko?

Yes, I'm fine.

I saved you.

That's right.

I saved you.

Yes, let's hurry.

Is he dead?

This saves us the trouble
of killing him.

He's not dead.

Christian Sammy, wake up.

You were the head of security
at the Minar Foundation, right?

Can you hear me?

You'll pay for your sins.

There's no escape.

What will you do?

What's going on?

Are you okay? Does anything hurt?

No. What happened?

Nothing.

Nothing has happened yet.

Where's Christian?

We have to kill him.
There's no other way.

Is that really okay?

Is this the outcome you wanted?

It's a nightmare.

If it's just a nightmare,
I think I can endure it.

I want to move forward.
Will you accompany me?

"Marie Baschere, 8 years old"

"Body found in Senar Forest,

"death occurred approximately
one week ago"

"16 stab wounds on the body"

"Right wrist
and left middle finger fractured"

"Severe damage to the abdomen and head"

"Multiple wounds
and subcutaneous hemorrhage"

"Last name: Yoshimura,
First name: Saburo"

"Died on April 18, 2023"

It happened so suddenly...

I couldn't stop it.

It happened last night.

Suddenly, he pulled out a knife...

He said he was going to end
it all and slit his throat.

In the afterlife,
he will no longer feel pain.

My mother said it's filled
with a soft light...

It's a place where everyone
can feel happy.

In other words, eternity...

It really exists there.

It's almost tangible.

Sayoko, are you going home?

Why did you come?

Just to distract myself.

I start to feel strange
when I'm over there.

Where's Christian now?

Same, that beast.

I have this too.

What will you do?

We can't keep him here.

We can't just carry him around either.

So many difficult problems.

I never thought I'd get this far.
It's thanks to you.

That's not true.

No, it's because of you.

I feel calm when I'm with you.

The fog in my heart starts to clear.

You have magical powers.

Do you remember when we first met?

Yes.

You gave me hope again
when I was at rock bottom.

Is your therapy still going on?

It's almost over, right?

Yes.

What will you do after this is over?

I don't know.
I haven't thought about it.

I want to visit Japan.

Maybe it's a bit too far.

Albert.

Albert.

This is it. It's over.

Stay here. Don't move.

Sorry Sir,

I was in the supermarket over there.

Is this your car?

Yes.

No parking here.

I didn't know that.

Are you unloading something?

Are you unloading something?

OK. Your driver's license, please.

Thank you.

You're Japanese?

Yes.

Japan? Very nice culture.

I like manga.

I like it too.

Saint Seiya.

I like it too!

You have a nice culture but please,
respect the rules.

Sorry.

Goodbye.

And you?

Nothing new?

No, nothing new.

Oh, really?

The hospital?

Are you still working there?

Yes.

I thought it would last longer.

I was naive.

But here, everything is easy.

Like just before falling asleep.

One can forget everything.

It's probably better this way.

When your visa expires,
will you come back?

I don't know.

Come back.

We don't have to live together.

There are ways to make a marriage last.

There are ways to continue.

If you don't answer the questions,
I'll cut off one finger at a time.

Next, I'll cut off your arms.

Christian Sammy.

You were the head of security
at the Minar Foundation, right?

I'll go outside for a bit.
I'll be right back.

I'm really going to do it.

Do you hate me that much?

You can still speak.

I wasted three days for nothing.

Let's make a deal.

I know that girl.

Where did you see her?

In a video,

back when I was still
with the foundation.

A video? What kind of video?

Do you think I'll talk for free?

Without expecting anything in return?

Do whatever you want.

It'll be a problem for you if I die.

If you don't answer,
that man won't let you go.

Your fingers will be gone.

But if you cooperate, you'll be saved.

Without guarantee?

Alright.

Let's do it this way.

"It was a mistaken identity."

Okay?

No matter what he asks you...

Do not admit that you're Christian.

What are you after?

You don't need that.
Leave it there.

Let's kill him.

He says he has something to discuss.

What?

It was mistaken identity.

What did you say?

I'm Fran�ois Barthes.

It's a mistake.

Why are you saying that now?

You guys looked like beasts,

I didn't think
I'd be able to reason with you.

I can tell you where Christian is.

What do you want to know about him?

What was happening in the circle?

That's right, isn't it?

That's correct.

If that's the case,

you won't get any answers
by interrogating him.

You'll need to meet
the highest authority of the circle.

What are you trying to say?

Meet Deborah.

No.

Who?

Deborah Minar.

She's the founder of the foundation.

Is she alive?

Of course.

But when the foundation was dissolved...

They could easily fabricate
articles saying she's dead.

Deborah Minar.

You finally made it this far.

Sayoko.

You can't get the truth from Deborah.

She's from another dimension.

The truth and lies merge together,
you can't tell them apart.

Deborah's goal
has always been consistent.

Even if it looks distorted...

Shut up!

Let's listen.

Continue.

She selected children.

Children to be adopted
by the rich and...

The rest.

For the circle...

The important thing
was not the children,

but their organs.

Kidneys, livers, pancreases.

Eyeballs, hair.

The younger they are,
the higher the price they fetch.

Deborah is a former surgeon.

That's why she's in that business.

Her skill with a scalpel is legendary.

It's a cruelty that's almost beautiful.

Sayoko, our opponent is a real devil.

Where can we meet her?

Should I take you there?

You can see for yourself.

Where is she?

Where your daughter
took her last breath.

Deborah is there,
and probably Christian as well.

It's a trap, Sayoko.

Don't trust it.

There are no other clues.

Are you avoiding Deborah?

No.

Laura might be there.

Laura?

My wife.

She had an important position.

In the circle.

Deborah liked her
and stayed by her side.

She became one of her followers.

But my wife would
never give up our daughter.

If I had known...

I would have absolutely refused.

But why...?

Things weren't going well with my wife.

Our daughter was often left alone.

If only I had been closer.

Child trafficking
in a place like this...

Deborah and the others should be here.

There are a few armed men as well.

Wait here.

I'll talk to them.
I'll signal you when the time is right.

What are you planning?

You'll have to trust me.

Exactly five minutes.

If I'm late, set fire to it,
and shoot anyone who comes out.

Shoot them all.

Understood.

Christian, five minutes.

Okay.

Christian?

Is it you?

No.

Did you kill my daughter?

I didn't kill her.

I just filmed it.

Filmed? What did you film?

Stop. You already know.

The children, right?

Filming them as their organs
are harvested.

Selling it to collectors.

Your daughter was treated the same way.

I know because I filmed it.

I clearly remember that face.

It was unrecognizable.

Don't talk nonsense.

Damn it.

I've been deceived.

This is how I ended up here.

That guy...

He even brought up the video,
trying to manipulate me.

He deserved to die.

Let's go.

Where to?

Your wife is waiting, right?

Sayoko.

Where is she?

Marie, oh Marie.

Marie Basher, age 8.

Body found in Senar Forest.

Dead for about one week.

16 stab wounds on the body.

Right wrist
and left middle finger fractured.

No sign of life present.

Significant damage
to the abdomen and head.

Multiple wounds
and subcutaneous bruising.

Cause of death: Extensive blood loss.

Lost one third of the brain matter.

80% of the organs were removed.

The face was unrecognizable.

Identified by the dental records.

Marie Basher, 8 years old.

Body found in Senar Forest.

Dead for about one week.

Hello?

No, they haven't come yet.

Don't worry, I'll stop them.

Yeah, don't worry.

Jake, are you okay?

Jake, can you hear me?

Jake!

The face was unrecognizable.

Identified by the dental records.

Marie Basher, 8 years old.

Body found in Senar Forest.

Dead for about one week.

16 stab wounds on the body.

My daughter was killed here.

My daughter was killed here.

My daughter was killed here.

My daughter was killed here.

I didn't know.

Your daughter too?

Sayoko.

My daughter was killed here.

My daughter was killed here.

Laura.

Don't come.

Why did you come?

Where is Deborah?

She's dead. A long time ago.

She took her own life.

It's okay.

What about Jake?

Jake? The tough guy?

Yes.

He's dead.

Damn it.

Did you take Deborah's place?

You wouldn't understand.

You brought Marie here?

Don't worry.

You didn't love that girl.

That girl hated her parents too.

What should I have done?

To you,
she might have been an innocent girl...

But to me,
she was completely different.

She looked at me with cold,
accusing eyes.

You told me, "Consult Deborah."

I don't know what happened
after I gave her up.

It's what you wanted.
I just turned a blind eye.

What more could I have done?

I need to talk to this man.

I'll be there in a moment.

Could you go ahead?
It's the room at the back.

Elin is there.

Play that game.

Okay? It's fine.

I've spent a year with Jake,

but I still can't replace Deborah.

She was a terrible demon,
a charismatic leader.

I don't want to become that.

Is this the end?

What do you think?

Is all of this real?

If this is the end,
then you're finished too.

Albert, I'm not afraid anymore.

It's over...

But it's fine this way.

Finally.

It was Laura.

She brought her daughter here.

Deborah selected her,
and Guerin killed her.

Maybe your daughter too.

Are you satisfied?

It's all because of you.

Now, it's just you left.

This is your last meal.

You're joking, right, Sayoko?

We're all the same.

I just mediated
the video sales on orders.

You were the one who arranged it,
right?

I didn't know
what kind of video it was.

You sold your own daughter.

Stop it, I'm a victim too.

Stop, stop it.

We did the revenge together.

You want to see the video
of your daughter...

...being dissected alive.

Don't you?

No, stop it.

Stop, Sayoko.

Albert...

I...

I saw it.

Why did you do this to me?

You are the one I hate the most.

Wait.

Sayoko, it's a lie, right?

Don't leave me!

After all,

This distance might do us good.

I'm nostalgic for life in Paris.

I'm sure we got along well.

You know, just the two of us,

we might have managed to get through it.

But well, let's forget the past.

Just seeing your calm face
through the screen...

...from time to time reassures me.

It's a little moment of comfort.

You were the one who sold your daughter.

What was that?
