Original subtitles

Six locks and a sturdy door. Iron bars and a security camera.

A certain incident occurred in this office...

...where strict security measures have been made.

There's a method more effective than any crime prevention measure...

That is, to change your life and behavioral patterns.

Do you come home taking the same route everyday?

Or do you open the window at the same time everyday?

Such life patterns can produce a tragedy.

As with the victim in this incident...

Serizawa-san, no matter how busy you are...

...you always take time for your meals, huh?

In order to manage the pressures of work...

...self-management becomes important.

Disturbance in your life's rhythm can lead to a disturbance in your mind...

...and may hinder you from making fast and accurate judgments.

Then, do you have a sleep schedule?

No matter how late I go to bed...

...I'll wake up at 5 in the morning. - 5 am?!

Not because I'm old...

I take a long hot shower...

...then sip a cup of espresso while reading the newspaper.

It's only during mornings that I get to spend time luxuriously.

Amazing.

Hello?

It's Enomoto. The company president where I'm working right now...

...is looking for a lawyer. Is it ok if I refer you?

- Yes. It's no problem. - Is it another locked room case? Oi.

I don't think so.

Let me put Serizawa-san on the phone.

Hi, Enomo-chan, how're ya?

I'm fine, thanks. There are no particular physical abnormalities.

What's this work about?

It's about legal advice on business.

It's a trading company that deals with rare metals.

Well, if it's corporate law, I'm all for it.

We ask you a favor all the time so..

If possible, they would like to see you today.

The location is in Shinjuku.

From the looks of this place... don't tell me..

- No way. It can't be... - Right? No way.

No way...

Nice to meet you. I'm Togashi. (Togashi Trading President: Togashi Koutetsu)

I'm Sakaguchi. (Togashi Trading Director: Sakaguchi Kanya)

I'm Aoto from Friedman & Serizawa Law Firm.

I'm Serizawa. Sorry to ask this so suddenly...

...but may please I use your bathroom?

- Eh? - Go ahead. It's outside to the left.

Sorry. My stomach doesn't feel good since this morning.

Enomoto.

What kind of relations do you have with that president?

He's a good customer of my company.

Really? You don't have close relations?

What do you mean by 'close'?

This company, what kind of company is it?

- It's a trading company. - No.

- I mean, what is it really? - It's a trading company.

(Foreign language)

Mandarin and Thai. Sounds suspicious.

They seem to be doing many deals in Asia.

What on earth are they importing and exporting?

- I think they're negotiating. - The office of the president...

Yo! Locksmith bro.

- Thanks for helpin' us out before. - No problem.

"Hey. What's yesterday's sales?"

- Who's that, who's that? - He's Nonogaki, the company director. (Togashi Trading Director: Nonogaki Jiro)

Somehow, this company has the smell of those...

- Those? - Those... Those violent people--

What sort of help did you do for them before?

The lock on the office's door was destroyed because of an incident so...

...I temporarily installed a simple lock.

- What was that incident about? - Today I came...

...to replace them all with new ones.

I have also installed a security camera in the hallway.

What was that incident about?

Three days ago, the vice president died in that room over there.

Died?

He was found dead sitting in his chair.

Seems he was shot through the forehead by a gun found on the floor.

The police are suspecting suicide because they found gunshot residue on the victim's hand...

...and murder by Hatta Mitsuo-san over there. (Hatta Mitsuo)

Let's keep working while explaining.

Why is that guy being suspected?

Because when the incident occurred, only the vice president...

...and Hatta-san were in the office.

Hatta-san was in the office manning the telephone...

...but he testified that the vice president came to the office suddenly...

...and locked himself in the room.

So what do you think?

It's not murder, right? It's suicide, right?

To commit suicide, it's more natural to point the gun to your temple, not the forehead.

So I don't think it's a suicide.

Then he's the culprit. There was just two of them in the office, right?

I didn't kill him. Uh, well...

I was sleeping on the sofa...

Then suddenly I heard a 'BANG!'...

I was startled. I jumped up and went to Vice President's room immediately...

Then I found Okazaki-san... dead.

Then, what happened?

I got scared and ran out...

I waited in front of the building until everyone arrived.

You didn't see any suspicious person coming out of the office?

I didn't. I was too scared to even worry about it.

- But... - But...?

Ah.

- Uh... - Oi. Mitsuo.

- Yes. - Come here.

- Yes. - Hurry up.

Come here, quick. Ah?

Serizawa-san. The president would like to talk with you alone.

- Alone? Why? - I don't know.

- Anyway, please go. - W-wait...

Enomoto-san, is this company one of those...?

Those?

(Note: Her gesture refers to the Yakuza ritual of cutting off the tip of the pinkie)

Serizawa-sensei. You were on TV, weren't you?

- Well, yes. - It's an honor to meet you.

Thank you.

- I wish I never went on TV... - Pardon?

- Uh, nothing. - Actually, I'm considering...

...a business partnership with a company abroad.

It'll be great if a competent lawyer like Sensei...

...will act as our negotiator. Can you help us?

Oh, well...

Well... I do want to be of help.

Please hold on a minute.

As much as I would love to help...

... my sked is fully booked for the next six months.

- Are you an early riser, Sensei? - Yes.

- What time do you wake up in the morning? - I get up at 5.

- What time do you go to work? - 8 o'clock.

So early! Don't you stay up late?

Well, I try to get home by 10 pm, as much as possible.

I see.

To some extent, I now have an idea of Sensei's...

..life and behavioral patterns. - Pardon?

If you refuse my request...

...something bad might happen to you.

What do you mean by that?

C'mon now... I'm just messin' with you!

(Foreign language)

Papa?

- Misa, what're you doing here? - You forgot your wallet, Papa.

I'm so glad! I thought I dropped it.

- Be more careful, okay? - Yeah.

- Hello. Are you new here? - Hello. (Hatta Misa)

- I'm Aoto, a lawyer. - A lawyer?

Then may I have your business card? If Papa gets in some kind of trouble...

...I may want to talk with you. - Misa.

You're quite smart. Here you go.

Ah! I saw the name of this company on TV.

Oh. The show where Serizawa-san solved a locked room case.

Who is this person?

I'm Enomoto from Tokyo Total Security.

This man knows a lot about crime prevention.

Hmm? You have a cute face. You're my type.

Sorry about that.

Sorry. C'mon, let's go over there.

You've just been confessed to.

(Foreign language)

As expected, you refused the work?

Of course. I'm sorry, Enomoto...

..but it's better not to get involved with that kind of company.

Using scare tactics to try to get what they want... It's really one of those...

Were you threatened?

He implied he can read my behavioral patterns so he can attack me any time...

...trying to scare me. Enomoto, I want you to beef up the security...

...at my home, for free. - That's not possible.

Huh? What is that?

It's 'Illusion of Echigo.'

I believe this is a rare sake, only a few bottles are in existence.

I think they only put 20 of them in the market each year.

Really~... Amazing! It must be valuable. Did someone give it to you?

The president gave it to me as a gift.

Why are you accepting these things from those people?

This could be a bribe for them to get you on their side.

By the way, why did you introduce me to such a gray person* in the first place? (*maybe a Yakuza)

No, not gray. He's black.* Black, I'm telling you. Pitch black-- (*Definitely a Yakuza, no doubt)

- I'll be goin' home then. - Oh. Good night. (3 days later)

- Oi. - Yes.

- Go ahead, I'll be down soon. - Oh, got it.

Yeah.

- Oi, Mitsuo. - Yes, sir.

Once I drop the anikis off, I'll go straight from there.

Ah? Yeah. Sure, I'll get it. What else? (Inuyama Katsumi)

Okay, then. I'm going now.

Ah, don't worry about it. Can I have one, too?

Sure. Eh? Thought you quit smoking?

I feel like smokin' today. C'mon, gimme one.

- Hurry up and get in. - Let me have a smoke, will ya?

Then walk home. Why do I have to...

...drive you home anyway? - Cuz my car is broken.

Got no choice, right? Oi.

- Was that a woman on the phone? - Yeah.

Was that good? Cutting her off like that?

- Oh, it's really okay. - I see.

- I heard she's cute. - Nah.

- Why don't you introduce her to me next time. - Yes, of course.

- So I can date her. - Sorry, please give me a break.

- What the hell? Why not? - Please give me a break.

What do you mean 'break'?

- That sound?! - Oi. Let's go!

Yes!

- Mitsuo! Mitsuo, open the door! - Mitsuo!

- Oi, where's the spare key? - It's in the bank's safe deposit box.

Mitsuo has the other one inside.

- Hey! Mitsuo! - Mitsuo!

- Open it quick! - You're the one who put those locks.

Knock it off!

Shoot...

- That's so funny... - SHUTTUP!!

It's open.

- Mitsuo! - Mi--

Mitsuo...

Episode 9: "The Deceived Man"

Special thanks to: furransu, \( -o _ o- )/

Special thanks to: mikaljan, honest

- Thank you very much. - Thank you.

- If you'll excuse us. - Excuse us, too.

Excuse us.

Another person died in that office, huh?

- Yes. It was Hatta-san. - I'm so glad I refused that job.

I heard the police have concluded that Hatta-san committed suicide...

..because he was suspected and felt cornered for the vice president's case.

Two consecutive suicides using a gun... Somehow, something's not quite right.

But that room was a locked room case, wasn't it?

- 'Locked room'? - Are you interested?

- What? Of course not. - Hmm?... Is that right.

I meant to tell you this before...

I think you're misunderstanding me.

I am not in the slightest bit interested in locked room cases.

First of all, mystery novels and anything like that...

Ah! Isn't it almost time for lunch?

- Oh, I'll skip lunch today. - Eh?

- Are you sure? - Ever since he mentioned about...

...my behavioral pattern, I can't get it out of my mind.

- Oh, you mean, that president's threat? - My life's rhythm has gone haywire.

I don't feel like myself...

- Yes! - Excuse me.

Someone is here to see you.

- Ah. - Hello. I'm Hatta Misa.

- Hatta? - Oh. She's Hatta-san's daughter.

- Did you come alone? - Yes.

What can we do for you?

Oji-san. You've solved a lot of locked room cases, right?

- I saw you on TV. - Ah, no, uh...

It wasn't a big deal.

I just happened to solve it by chance... like accidentally...

Please solve my Papa's case, too.

- Oh. No, I can't, I can't. - Why not?

This oji-san is a busy man. And besides, uh...

...the detectives have already said that your Papa committed suicide.

Fine.

That onee-chan will help solve the incident.

- Eh? - Please.

Thank you so much.

We are making an honest living.

But having two people dead using a gun...

...the public would find it doubtful...

...don't you think so? - You may be right.

That's why we need to know the truth, too.

Especially if it'll help Mitsuo's daughter...

..then I have no reason not to cooperate. Please take care of it.

- Yes. - Thank you.

Then, if there's anything you need, ask Sakaguchi.

- I'm leaving it to you, Sakaguchi. - Yes sir.

Is everyone off today?

Yeah.

Thank you for your help today.

Looking at this room again, it's really well secured.

- It's a relic of the past. - What past?

The steel used for the grills in this room's windows is different...

...from the steel used in households. This thickness was custom-made, wasn't it?

Yes. And at the time of the incident, the windows were all locked.

This sturdy door had been reinforced with a 3.2 mm thick steel plate at the back.

What's wrong with the mail slot?

It has been welded shut to prevent a break in by a thumb turn tool.

This door was locked.

Aside from this door, there is no other exit.

This means that at the time of the incident...

...this was a locked room, right? - Yes.

So wasn't it a suicide?

It's hard to imagine it as suicide. Hatta-san had fired the gun...

...slightly away from his mouth.

You would normally put it inside your mouth.

- It certainly is weird. - Timing was also too convenient.

No reason for him to die when he was alone in the office.

Since he had a gun, he could've died somewhere else.

You have a point.

On the day of the incident, those who stayed until the end of the day...

...were Sakaguchi-san. Nonogaki-san. Inuyama-san.

And also Hatta-san. Am I correct?

Yes.

With regards to the gun that was used, could it be...?

This is a respectable company. We don't have such things.

Of course.

Uh... If the vice president and Hatta-san committed suicide...

..they must have obtained the guns themselves, right?

Where did they get it?

Vice President must have gotten it from a foreigner or his past connection.

What past?

- How about Hatta-san? - I don't know about Mitsuo.

But it's not something...

...one can easily obtain. - Of course.

I saw the gun at Hatta-san's incident scene...

...is it the same type of gun found in the vice president's scene?

They're both Glock 17.

Just pull the trigger, the safety device automatically disengages.

Oh... Here.

What is it?

I found it beside Mitsuo's body.

It might be trash but do you think it's related to the incident?

I do not know. I'll keep it for now.

These are the footages taken just before Hatta-san's death.

First, Sakaguchi-san and Inuyama-san came out.

But isn't it there a blind spot in this picture?

Yes. There's no footage from the middle of the hallway...

...to the elevator.

That part has become the blind spot.

When I installed it...

...there was no blind spot.

But on the day before the incident, Hatta-san adjusted...

...the position of the security camera.

Why did Hatta-san change the angle of the camera?

Perhaps someone ordered him to do it?

- I didn't. - We will never know.

Then, Nonogaki-san came out a little later.

As far as I can tell by looking at the footages...

...there's no chance that the door was locked from the outside.

Nobody else had the key, right?

Yes. We only had 2 keys in all. One is in a bank's safety deposit box.

The other one was kept by Mitsuo...

...so it was in the room.

As suspected, the one who locked the door was definitely Hatta-san.

Yo, locksmith bro. Watcha doin?

Oi, Sakaguchi. What're you showing them?

- The footages from the security cameras. - Tsk.

Why're ya guys checkin out the suicide incident?

Hmm? What do we have here?

Ya find anything interesting in the footages? Ah?

Ho~... I look good, don't I?

- Right? Miss Lawyer. - Yes!

That's right. I'll tell ya guys somethin' interesting.

The culprit who killed Mitsuo...

...was him. - What?

That's enough with that insolent mouth of yours.

- Oi. Who do you think you're orderin around? - YOU!

- You want some, oi? Ah? - W-Wait, Aniki...

Wait... let's stop it.

I feel tired from being tensed.

That's why I told you it's better not to get involved.

Anyway, what we found so far are...

The room was a complete locked room.

And Hatta-san was the person who locked it from the inside. ("Door was locked")

Then supposing it was murder, how was he killed? ("Hatta's body, gun in the hand")

There is no method to make Hatta-san...

...point the gun towards his mouth. - What about hypnosis?

- Hypnosis? - I think I've seen...

...something like that in an old American drama‚

But I heard, to make a person commit suicide through hypnosis...

...is next to impossible. - Really? Then...

Oh, the client will be here soon.

Yes.

But why was Hatta-san killed in the first place?

Didn't it have something to do with the previous incident?

Well, that'll be the normal chain of thought.

- Ah. - Have you thought of something?

I wonder if Hatta witnessed something when the vice president died.

- Witnessed? - When I asked him about the incident...

...he looked like he wanted to say something...

"You didn't see anyone suspicious coming out..."

"...of the office?" - "I didn't. But..."

- I wonder what he saw... - Maybe...

Misa-chan knows something about it?

I'll go see her tomorrow.

Misa-chan.

Have you solved the case?

- Oh, not yet. Sorry. - I see.

Say, Misa-chan. I have something to ask you...

...Can I ask you some questions? - What is it?

Did you know that before your father died...

...there was another person who died in the same company?

- Yes. I know about it. - Did your father...

...tell you anything about that incident?

- About the incident? - Yes. Like did he see something?

- Why is everyone asking the same thing? - Hmm? Did someone else ask you?

Not me. It was Papa.

"Gotcha... Pew! Pew!"

When Papa and I were playing in the park, Nonogaki-ojichan came.

"Oi oi oi oi."

"You look like two kids playing."

"Hello."

"Misa-chan, you're a girl..."

"...so you're not interested in guns, right?"

"It's okay. I like water guns. Right~?"

- "Right~?" - "Really..."

- "Hey Mitsuo." - "Yes."

"Mitsuo. After you saw the body of Vice President.."

"You went out of the office right away, right?"

"When you ran out of the office, where did you go?"

"I was outside the building until everyone arrived."

"I see. Then did you see something?"

"Eh?"

"I won't get angry. What did you see?"

"No--..."

"Nonogaki-san's car... I saw it drive away."

Car? He said he saw a car?

Yes. Nonogaki-ojichan told Papa...

...not to tell anyone.

We finally got this from our supplier. This is the remote control for the security camera.

Thanks. By the way, Enomoto-kun. Have you had the sake yet?

Yes. The so called "Illusion" sake was quite delicious.

Yeah. Nonogaki and Sakaguchi also said it tasted good.

...This seemed to be a good year. - Thanks for the gift.

Don't mention it. You've helped us out a lot.

I wished I gave some to Mitsuo, too.

He was a big fan of sake, y'know.

Is that so.

Yes. Have a good day. Yes.

If I look closely, you're pretty cute.

What's wrong?

Uh, in this kind of situation, how should I reply?

As I thought, you ARE cute.

Uh. On the day of the incident...

You heard a gunshot when you were in front of the building, right?

- That's right. - How many minutes passed since...

...you left the office? - Around 5 minutes.

Why didn't you leave right away?

Oh. Nonogaki-san and I were outside chatting for a bit.

Okay. Thank you.

Oh... Eh? Wai-... That's it?

Don't you have anythin' else to ask me?

What the hell does he want?

Ah!

Then was there anything else that was unusual?

Hmm... anything unusual, huh?

- Oh. Smoking a cigarette. - Cigarette?

Yeah. Nonogaki-san has stopped smoking. But...

"I feel like smoking today."

Oh. He also had the smell of sake.

- Sake? - Yeah.

Why were you chasing after me?

- Why were you running away? - If you have...

...a grim guy like you on your tail, anyone will flee.

So... how's the case going?

Ah. There's nothing yet.

If you don't solve it quickly, someone else might die soon.

Eh?

- You may be next. - Uh, n-no.

I have something I need you to investigate.

What is it?

Nonogaki-san had smelled of sake...

...that means he was drinking, right?

Ah. Speaking of which. what did you do with the "Illusion" sake.

- I drank it. - What? Alone?

- Yes. - If you were going to drink it...

...you should have invited me.

If you drank it, it means you've accepted a bribe, right?

I wonder what that is...

There's a small hole in the middle of it.

- Excuse me for disturbin'! - Oh, Nonogaki-san!?

Is this really a security company?

I was able to come in so easily... Isn't this bad? Eh?

There are many security cameras everywhere...

...so you shouldn't do anything suspicious.

I ain't gonna do anything, Sensei. Eh? I'll be goin soon.

I just have somethin important to tell ya.

What is it?

Seems like you guys have been poking around too much.

I made sure Inuyama kept his big mouth shut.

Don't come pokin' around anymore.

Is that a threat?

What's it to you?

If it is, it won't work on us lawyers.

What?

It seems that you think that violence is...

...the only weapon that can subdue people but...

As lawyers, our weapon is the law.

Please remember that well.

If you are done with your business, please leave.

Sensei. This wasn't a mere threat.

I'm serious.

- That was scary~. - Don't back down.

Stand firm as a lawyer.

But even you had to change your behavioral pattern.

I did it intentionally. Being aware and changing your behavioral pattern...

...are the best ways to prevent crime.

Aoto-san, can we meet with Misa-chan again?

Hmm?

Misa-chan, was there something...

...you and your dad did the same time everyday?

He called me up everyday to tell me goodnight.

(Calls from 'Papa': Date, Time, and Duration)

Everyday, I told him... (Calls from 'Papa': Date, Time and Duration)

...what I ate and other stuff.

10 o'clock. Talking for 4 to 10 minutes.

Is there anything else that you and your dad always did?

We always played with this.

- A water gun? - Yeah.

Really~...

- I miss this. - Papa always got soaked...

...when we play together. - I see.

What is it?

Did Nonogaki-san see you and your dad...

...playing with water guns?

Yeah, he did.

Could it be...

Alright. Thanks.

- Mizuki-kun. - Yes, sir?

You don't have to look for it anymore.

This is it... no doubt about it.

The locked room...

...has been unlocked.

What did you call us for?

- Do you know who the culprit is? - Yes.

At the time of the incident, the office was a complete locked room.

I believe there is no doubt that the only person...

...who locked the door to this office was Hatta-san.

Then, no one came in from the outside.

- Yes. - So Mitsuo...

...died in the office alone. - Yes.

Then, the only one who shot Mitsuo was himself.

Yes. There's no doubt...

...that he pulled the trigger with his own free will.

Doesn't that mean he committed suicide?

No... it wasn't a suicide.

Hatta-san didn't think it was a real gun.

- What do you mean? - He was convinced that...

...that the real gun was a fake one...

...and pointed it towards his mouth and pulled the trigger himself.

I don't get what you mean.

Why would he point a fake gun towards his mouth?

- To drink sake. - Eh?

The culprit made some modifications to the real gun to turn it into a water gun.

The "Illusion" sake was placed inside.

- Water gun? - Yes.

Let me give you a step by step explanation of the incident.

On the day of the incident, first the culprit...

"Seriously? Please stop joking."

"Ah. Aniki. Uwa~!"

"Please stop... gimme a break~!"

"Eh? What is that?"

- "Eh?" - "Did you make it, Aniki?"

"When I saw you the last time, I guess I miss playing with it."

- "Aniki, you are a kid, too." - "Of course..."

"A man is always a kid at heart."

"Oi. Can you tell what's inside?"

"Oh, it's sake, right?"

"Yeah. But it isn't just sake."

"It's the "Illusion" sake. How about it? You want some?"

- "Can I?" - In order to make him...

...think that it had the feel and weight of a real gun, the culprit made him...

...touch it and drink the sake.

Since Hatta-san loved sake...

...the taste of "Illusion" sake was unforgettable.

"Illusion" sake...

...it's the one that the President gave you, right, Enomoto-san?

That was what's in the water gun, huh?

Once the culprit made Hatta-san experience its taste...

...he told him before leaving the office...

"Go ahead, I'll be down soon."

- "Oh. Got it." - "Yeah."

- "Hey Mitsuo." - "Yes."

"That sake in the water gun..."

"...You can have the rest." - "Eh? Really?"

'You can have the rest of the sake.'

Or something like, 'I'll give you the sake.'

That's what the culprit must have said before he left the office.

After the culprit left the office, Hatta-san locked the door.

Then he noticed that it was 10 pm...

...he hurried and called up his daughter.

Hatta-san called...

...his daughter everyday at 10 pm...

...and the call will last about 4-10 minutes.

The culprit must have known that.

On the day of the incident, as always, Hatta-san did...

...call his daughter and spoke for 4 minutes.

In the meantime, the culprit was trying to make an alibi...

...and stayed in front of the building...

...until the gunshot was heard.

Then, after finishing the phone conversation within the planned time...

Hatta-san took out the gun from the drawer...

...and pulled the trigger to drink the sake.

Then, at the time of the incident, the gun in the drawer...

...wasn't the water gun, right? - Yes.

The culprit switched the water gun he showed...

...to Hatta-san with the real one.

Wait a minute.

You should be able to tell if it's real or not by looking at the muzzle.

I have identified what this cardboard piece was for.

What is that?

It was found next to Mitsuo's body.

By putting this black piece with a hole to the muzzle of the real gun...

...the culprit made him believe...

...that it was a water gun.

I think Hatta-san did believe it was a water gun beyond doubt.

Then, he pointed it towards his mouth and pulled trigger...

...which then the bullet was fired.

He shot it a short distance away from the mouth...

...that's why the black cardboard piece fell on the sofa.

That's how Hatta-san died in the locked room.

Oi oi, wait a minute.

You're pointing the finger at me, aren't cha?

Yes. I believe there is no one else...

...who could have done this except you.

Oh, you said it.

Oi, Locksmith. Once you spit, you can't swallow it back.

It's all your imagination, isn't it? Do you have any evidence? Huh?

Nonogaki-san, you do have a strong motive to murder those two.

Please take a look at this.

This is a copy of the official land registry for the land you purchased in January.

"I have something I need you to investigate."

"What is it?"

"I found this in the vice president's desk."

"Isn't this an official registry?"

"Nonogaki shouldn't be able to buy any land."

"He shouldn't have that kind of money."

It took a while to find out where the money was coming from...

You used a dummy company...

...and ran an illegal casino in Maruyama in Shibuya Ward.

Vice president Okazaki-san must have found out about it.

"I'll pull out from the casino business so..."

"Can you please not tell President about this?"

"No can do."

"Sooner or later, you'll get into another illegal business again."

"You'll never be able to make an honest living."

"And, unlike Sakaguchi, you don't even have an education."

"You're nothing but excess baggage for us now."

"At least settle this yourself like a man."

- "As in the moral code?" - "That's right."

- "But I'm an honest citizen now." - "What?"

"Who cares about the moral code."

Sh*t!

Okazaki-san? Okazaki-sa--

Nonogaki-san had made a great mistake when he killed the vice president.

That is... you planned to kill Hatta-san at the same time...

...but you couldn't...

Nonogaki-san, Hatta-san saw your car...

...driving away from the office. When you realized it...

...you threatened Hatta-san to keep his mouth shut.

You better watch your mouth!

Do you think you can pin this on me with that? Huh?

I know where you hid the evidence.

Huh?

You can't hide the evidence in the area in front of office due to the security cameras.

There was also a security camera in the elevator so that was out, too.

If you bring it down to the 1st floor, Inuyama-san might notice...

...so that's out too. Then, the only place is...

...somewhere in the hallway, in the blind spot of the security cameras.

In this hallway, there is a room with...

...no name plate and no electric usage.

That's where you hid the water gun.

That's why you made Hatta-san tamper...

...with the security camera to create the blind spot.

Hey, why didn't you retrieve the evidence?

'Predictive and preventive measure' had worked.

- Predictive and preventive measure? - Yes.

Predictive and preventive measure is to place a crime prevention system...

...in the area where crime can possibly happen.

Right after Hatta-san's incident, I made a suggestion to the president...

...to install another camera so that if someone tampers with it again...

...it will not create the blind spot.

"I finally got it. This is the remote control for the security camera."

Nonogaki-san noticed the new security camera...

...that's why he couldn't retrieve the evidence.

Ha! That's interesting. Then, show me the evidence.

But you better watch how you pull it out.

I have no time to listen to your bullsh*t.

Nonogaki.

Can you tell if this gun is real or not?

This is a trap.

They are all trying to get me.

You don't have positive proof that I did it...

We don't need proof.

What is this makeshift method?

This is not something a real man would have done. You scoundrel.

You're the one who brought Mitsuo and took care of him. He looked up to you.

President...

I thought I was gonna die, oi...

This incident was really bad for the heart.

Onee-chan!

Thank you for solving the case.

Yes, it's all thanks to you... Right, Enomoto-san?

- Yes. - Really?

- Yes. - If it wasn't for you...

...we couldn't have unlocked the locked room. - Then, marry me!

Enomoto-san, you are popular.

It's the age-gap marriage. I envy you, Enomoto.

Let's play.
