Good evening, officer.

A girl keeping you waiting?

Yeah.

Well, good night.

Misaki! What's going on?

Wait! Wait for me!

What happened?

Look.

He's gone.

He's disappeared.

Only his clothes are left.

Did he run away naked?

Oh, no.

They didn't see anybody run away. Ask them.

He was just gone in a second.

So you think he was a magician, huh?

He moved very fast.

And you know, I'm pretty fast myself.

He disappeared even before I got there. Yes, and the car disappeared before you

got there.

If he left in the car, why would he leave his clothes?

The chief will be here soon. Let's see what he's found out.

Good morning.

That bag he was carrying was full of narcotics, worth about seven or eight

million yen.

He broke into a post office locker.

Sounds like a double-cross to me. He had to know the drugs were in there. What

have you found out?

We suspect a Mr. Chin of dealing in narcotics.

Very interesting.

I just sent to have a Mr. Chin picked up. He happens to rent that locker.

They should be here any moment now.

I want you to question him. I think he could tell us a lot about this case.

What's this all about?

I demand to call my attorney.

I know my rights.

Just come back.

We've got Mr. Chin.

Yes.

You want to look at the paper?

What's the idea of waking me up in the middle of the night and dragging me down

here?

Here, read this. You'll find out.

So you, Mr. Chin, we found narcotics in that bag.

Now, where did you get it?

From a man I met in the post office.

What man?

I never saw him before.

You're not very smart.

You're surely a dangerous man. That can get you into a lot of trouble.

He must have watched you put that bag in your locker.

And you know who he is.

You'll be safer cooperating with us.

They're a desperate bunch. They're not afraid to use their guns.

Mr. Chin, you're just lucky they haven't caught up with you.

Would you recognize him if you saw him again?

Misaki, take enough men. He'll probably be armed.

Any further order, sir? You take Ogawa with you and cover the back.

Yes, sir.

What time is it?

Four o'clock.

What's going on?

Nothing important.

Who's there?

Who are you? What do you want?

Is Misaki here?

It's been days since I've seen Misaki. I see.

We're from the police department.

We're taking you in.

Come on. We haven't got all day.

You will take a moment.

Please close the door.

Are you ready?

Do you mean to tell us you had no idea what Misaki was doing?

He would never talk about it. He said it was none of my business.

I've been told that you live very well, have fine clothes, jewelry.

How did you get all those nice things if Masaaki doesn't work?

Didn't you know he was peddling narcotics?

What?

Wake up!

Where does the money come from?

I paid for those things.

You work as a nightclub entertainer?

Yes. How much do you make?

Depends on business.

50,000 yen or better.

That's quite a bit, isn't it?

Misaki, what's happened to him?

Why?

That watch was a present from me.

Are you positive it's the same one?

Yes.

We'll have to have your thumbprint on this.

If he's still in Tokyo, Misaki is better off if we arrest him.

His gangster friends will kill him on sight when they read about this.

These are ruthless men.

They'll do anything.

Well, I think you can go home.

Thank you.

Using her for bait?

With a pretty wife like that, Misaki won't stay away.

Good evening.

Good evening.

Come in.

If you know where he is, get this money to Misaki.

The police are shadowing me to catch Misaki.

I think it's better if you keep away from here.

What are you doing?

We're the police. You'll have to come with us.

Okay, let's go.

What's wrong?

Yes?

Now?

Sure.

Chief, they're bringing in a suspect from the crowd.

What are you doing here?

You tell me.

I've known him a long while.

Professor Masada from the university.

He teaches biochemistry.

I wasn't aware he did research in microbes.

He's known as a laboratory maniac.

He was trying to contact Chitako in her dressing room.

Did you write this note?

Mm-hmm.

What could you possibly want with Chitako?

Scientific information.

From a nightclub singer?

That's fine.

I'm embarrassed.

Must I talk now?

You owe us an explanation.

I guess I do.

I'm studying explosions, nuclear explosions.

What I mean is the physical effects of H-bomb ashes on human beings.

Like strontium-90, castium-137, plutonium... How does all of this

concern Misaki's case?

Mizaki wouldn't have walked around without his clothes on a cold and rainy

night. So?

What about this theory?

Let's say something occurred, an unusual phenomenon, and a man dissolved.

Dissolved? Mm-hmm.

If that rain was radioactive, well, it's quite possible.

Clever. Brilliant mind.

I think you've solved this case.

Stop your joking.

There were thousands of people walking in the rain that evening.

And in fact, so was I. Looks like I'm still here.

All right.

But I feel short of it.

Masada, have you any scientific proof of what you're saying?

No, but I may have some tomorrow.

Now tell me why you went to the crowd and what you really want.

Mizaki may have been in an H-bomb test area.

Bikini or Christmas Island. I wanted to find out if he had.

Would that help you?

Yes, with my research.

Oh, I see.

Now take a tip from me. This is no place for a scientist to be doing research,

especially now.

It is strictly a police problem, and we want you to keep out of it.

I'll remember that.

This is a ruthless gang of killers we're dealing with.

Good night, Masada.

The cops are watching outside. Be quiet.

Boy, you know what will happen to you.

Tell me where Misaki is.

You better talk.

Come on, you know where he is.

You must have some idea.

I don't know.

We won't do anything to you.

Help us find him. I can't help you.

Huh?

Okay.

Why, go see Misaki. Tell him his friends want to talk to him.

I'm going now. But if you say anything to the cops, we'll kill you.

Remember, the cops aren't the only ones watching you.

Don't move.

What's happened?

Gunshots. The apartment down the hall.

I'm from the police.

Taco, what happened? What happened? Oh shit, Taco.

Though say you never saw the man before, you don't know him?

You mean he was a complete stranger to you?

And yet you let him into your apartment, didn't you?

He was in the room when I walked in.

Why didn't you call for help?

It was Misaki, wasn't it?

Wasn't Misaki? This is for your own protection.

Why won't you cooperate with us and tell the truth?

Come on, be smart.

Misaki, you'll be much safer if you talk.

It was Misaki.

She created that whole scene so that he could get away.

Good actress.

You did a fine job.

I saw a green shadow. It was down on the street.

A green shadow? Amazing.

You're going to have to start telling us what you really saw.

You have to wait. There may be more questions.

And maybe you tell us the truth, huh?

Guard!

I don't think it was Misaki. That so?

Maybe it was one of his friends.

Could be.

The girl seems honest. I don't think she's lying to us.

I really think we were mistaken.

You're a pushover for a pretty girl.

What'd she do to convince you?

Chief, the woman says she saw a shadow.

But I don't believe it. I think Misaki was up there.

Good morning. Here again?

Good morning.

Have you found Masaki yet?

I thought you promised not to interfere anymore.

Just inquiring.

You sure you're interested in becoming personal?

Another police deduction of yours.

Purely impersonal. I wouldn't bet on it.

Please bring Chitako in.

Now.

Here, my blessing. Talk to her. Let's see what you can get out of her.

Thanks.

Frankly, you're wasting your time.

You remember this man?

This is Professor Masada.

He would like to talk to you.

Please, sit down.

Just a few simple questions, if you don't mind.

You don't have to tell me anything you don't want to.

Did Mizaki ever do any sailing or work on boats?

No.

I don't think he ever did.

Has he ever taken a trip without your knowing about it? No, I don't think so.

What about that dissolving rain theory of yours?

That's not funny.

Perhaps not.

There's been another man reported missing.

Missing?

Only his clothes were found in the street, exactly like Misaki's.

That settles it. You must come with me.

What for?

I've witnesses who saw men dissolve.

Are you feeling better?

Yes, doctor. I am a little bit. Good. Thank you.

Friends of mine.

Tominaga and Sakata.

Tell these men all you know about the deserted ship.

All right.

Please, lie still.

I'm all right. Lie back.

I'm still afraid, even now.

We have been out two days fishing.

Out of the darkness came this deserted ship.

We came up alongside.

Anybody on board?

Hey,

come out of there, will you? Don't hide!

Everything is in order.

Nothing has been touched.

The crew, where are they?

You scared?

No, not much.

He's dead?

Go on.

You go first, not me.

Let's get out of here!

The rock book.

Oh.

Must have been killed while he was writing.

Killed? But how?

Best if we get out of here, I'm afraid.

No bodies anywhere.

I don't understand it.

Come on.

Look at me.

Looks good.

Take it off.

What's the matter? No one's looking.

We're going.

Hey, wait a minute. I want you to see how good I look with the pencil.

Hey, touch on.

Come on.

Daichan! What's happening?

What's wrong?

Daichan! We have to help him! Don't go up there! Let me go! Let me go!

No! Don't!

You'll be killed!

You'll be killed!

Where are the others?

There's a... a sheep with ghosts.

What's that? A ghost ship? Impossible!

Keo! Mitsuru! Go back for the other men!

They'll be killed! Don't let them go! No!

Look at that!

When we got back to port, we told the police about the monsters, the ghost

sheep, and about the four missing men.

They wouldn't believe us.

You're a scientist.

Do you believe that rot?

He couldn't make up such a story. You could easily see that he was telling the

truth. As far as I'm concerned, it was just another sailor's story.

These two sick men fished close to shore, nowhere near an H-bomb area.

But just by going aboard that ship...

They became victims.

Victims of radiation.

Is the doctor in? No, he just went to his classroom for a lecture. Oh.

Would you bring me the logbook from the deserted ship? Yes, sir.

Sit down.

The two fishermen brought it back.

It has some significant entries.

Thank you.

Last entry made was the day after the hydrogen test in the South Pacific.

The captain wrote that on the day of the H-bomb test, six of his men disappeared.

There's no mention of the other 23 men. They may have dissolved two.

I'll try to make it clear.

After the explosion, there are shock waves.

At the same time, deadly rays are emitted.

The heat is removed.

We watch the rays' effects on living things here. Understand?

Complicated, isn't it?

Perhaps the demonstration's easier.

We'll place a frog in the rays.

Now watch this a minute.

Ready?

Yes, sir.

Stop.

Now the cells have changed. It's no longer a frog. I want you to see this

Look

at

the slide The liquid is alive

Are you trying to say that such a liquid can make men disappear?

I am saying this.

The liquid can become a monster and do untold damage.

Is that so?

You mean what those fishermen saw on that ship is here in Tokyo now?

Sakata, let's be realistic.

I will admit that the frog disappeared before my very eyes.

But for you to connect this with some make-believe creature, you're just

asking too much. Now wait.

You forget what the fishermen saw.

Masada, I still don't believe it.

It's much too fantastic.

The idea that a monster from a ghost ship is dissolving men in Tokyo is

nonsense. That shows you the difference between scientists and the police.

Goodbye.

Yes?

Hmm?

Sure? Right.

Homicide. Another victim.

I hope we'll be able to break this case soon. Yes, we're going to check on it

immediately.

Good morning. Hello. I must see you.

I've got some real proof for you.

This is the life preserver from the deserted ship.

It has the same name painted on it as the one in the logbook.

Not interested.

Tommy Naga.

Better take this out of here.

Thanks.

Very interesting.

It's probably radioactive.

Do you know exactly where it was found?

In Tokyo Bay.

Some men were fishing offshore.

Dr. Masada, someone to see you.

Show him in.

It's a young lady. She said she'd wait for you. She's outside.

What's her name?

I asked her, but she wouldn't tell me.

Chitako, come in. I didn't mean to disturb you, Doctor. I'm sorry.

But you're not.

Please, there was something I wanted to ask you.

Misaki's dead, isn't that right?

Do you think he was dissolved?

I... I can't prove it.

You can't?

I can give you proof.

I saw someone dissolve.

Chitako.

Get all the data recorded.

Yes, sir.

Oh, what happened? Is she here?

She was a little faint.

What's the matter?

Nurse, a stimulant. Yes, sir.

Just rest and don't worry.

You'll be all right now.

Dr. Mackey, this is Chitako, the girl I told you about.

Oh, I see.

Masada told me of all the trouble you're having. I'm sorry.

We all want to help you.

She's having a bad time. She's constantly watched by gangsters and

police.

Drink this.

I've given up hope of ever seeing Misaki.

He's gone.

Tell me something.

What is being done to protect other people from this?

We could do a lot, but the police won't believe us.

Maybe they will, later.

Why later?

Aren't people disappearing?

Oh, it's no use. No one believes me.

I saw a living man melt to nothing.

Believe me, it's true. You must warn the people.

I am sure of one thing.

This can't be the work of the boys from the old Hanada gang.

None of them figure in this at all, and we haven't another lead.

I'm afraid we are going to have to start again.

Yes?

What is it?

Your friend, Dr. Masada.

Tell him I'm out.

He brought Chitako with him.

Chitako? Yes.

Chief, would you excuse me?

Hello. Dr.

Mackey sent me here as his official representative.

Oh. More theories?

All right. Sit down.

We have to announce our findings to the public at once.

Misaki and the gangster in Shitako's room have both disappeared, precisely as

the sailors did on that deserted ship.

I am listening. Go on.

Furthermore, all those people disintegrated.

That's what we have to face up to.

It's much more serious than we thought.

This thing could destroy all of us.

Hmm, that's awful.

Don't you even care?

I am speaking to you officially now.

And I am listening.

Have you finished?

If you don't want to believe me, At least have pity for Chitako.

She's been hounded by you.

Pushed and terrorized by the hoodlums.

Trust her and she will cooperate.

Come to the club and she'll point them out to you.

She says that's their meeting place.

The young waiter is their contact man. He's the one to watch.

So deep is my love.

My love is like the sea.

Ever changing, ever free.

Yet in captivity,

so deep.

is my love and boundless as

the sky and like a star

Never changing, ever free But in

your captivity

am leaving.

Already?

What are you doing?

How good are you?

Get going.

I'm so sorry.

Stop it.

Honey? You're a bum.

Thank you.

Can't go up there. The guiding entrance, this way.

What do you think you're doing?

Get out of my way.

Are you crazy?

Let's get out.

Enough!

Dr. Masada.

Oh, Chitako.

What? Are you sure?

Positive. I just saw it myself.

Be careful. I'll be there right away.

It's the liquid creature. What? I am going to the nightclub.

Call Dr. Mackey at once. Yes, sir.

What's that?

Your attention, ladies and gentlemen. We must close the crowd at this time. We

would appreciate it if everyone would leave as quickly and orderly as

possible. This way. This way. Don't rush.

This way. Just keep moving this way.

Take her away from here!

Don't touch it!

I've lost that gangster, Ushida. He may be hiding in the basement.

Let's go down.

What's happening? Someone's hiding. What's going on down there?

This was what Ushida was wearing.

Dessert.

Just a moment. You can't go in there. It is not open to the press.

Why not? The police are in there.

They're not in there.

Come on, stop kidding. We saw them going.

Come closer, please.

This experiment I want to show you has a most important bearing on this case.

Amazing! It seems alive!

It is alive.

What about those, those strong rays? I will explain.

Radioactivity has changed the first frog, biochemically.

into that liquid creature. Please watch this.

It would seem that the frog is dissolving when actually the liquid

creature is eating him.

Now, would you please step over here?

Gentlemen, would you look into this?

At the beginning, we didn't really know what its function was.

After a number of experiments...

We found out that such creatures could develop in radioactive areas, and they

are particularly attracted to human life for their very survival.

It may interest you to look at the rogue book that was found on the deserted

ship.

As you can see from the notes in this rogue book here, six men were dissolved,

and then the other men became the creature's victims. Excuse me, sir.

What I'd like to know is, why has it come to Japan?

Especially to Tokyo.

The H-bomb test took place in Pacific waters.

And now in Tokyo Bay.

We have found remnants of the deserted ship. This liquid creature is dangerous

beyond belief. It could destroy us all.

A liquid creature produced from an H-bomb explosion.

Couldn't it be called H-man?

Gentlemen, this is one of the most critical moments in our entire history.

We are facing a situation which cannot be minimized.

Complete extermination. We have found out that in the development of the use

of radioactivity, a force of destruction has been created which endangers Japan

and the entire world.

What can we do to stop the creature?

So far, the only countermeasures are...

First, the use of electricity of high voltage.

Secondly, the use of fire. These are the only deterrents we know of. Now let me

illustrate.

Fortunately, the damages up to now have been remitted to this area here,

centering around this river. These particular sections have been the most

deadly at this time.

My recommendation now is that all sewers and any construction near the river be

burned. Thank you.

We will adjourn now and will resume proceedings at precisely 2.30.

You told me Ushida had this solved.

He didn't. He's alive.

What?

I saw his clothes on the floor.

He was very clever.

But his clothes were not radioactive.

I see.

Too bad.

It'll have to wait.

We must concentrate now on exterminating the liquid creatures.

Really glad to hear that.

Thank you.

Still friends? Yes, of course.

I'm sorry. I was wrong.

Chitako's a nice girl.

Be good to her.

Chitako, Dr. Masada's car is waiting outside for you. Thanks.

Here she is.

Thank you.

Have a good time.

What are you doing here, doctor?

Chetako just left in your car. Do you not stand for her? What? Follow that

car.

The group handling high voltage electricity will complete their job as

soon as possible.

Then they will attempt to find and brock off the liquid creatures.

The flamethrower group will have to be on guard at all times.

The gas arena attack will take place along here at 10 p.m. after these areas

have been completely evacuated.

If you were found floating around here, no one would ever suspect that I did it.

They think I'm dead.

But I'm very much alive, huh?

You know, Chitako, you were much too good for Misaki.

With a guy like me, you'd really be living.

I'm not like Misaki.

Here it is.

You know what this is worth?

I can sell this bag of heroin for more than 50 million yen.

Go on.

This is the way out.

You're going to come with me?

Or do you want to stay down here with the monster?

Are you ready?

Every man does hope.

Take off your clothes.

If they think the monster got you, then stop looking.

Then I'll have you all to myself.

Huh?

I think it was right about here that they pulled ahead of me.

We searched this whole area thoroughly.

What's that over there? What?

Hmm.

C.A.

Chitakuara?

Ridiculous.

Chief! Latest report, sir. They've located the liquid creature in the

sewer. Good.

Come on.

Let's get over there.

Hosanna! Hosanna!

over here, sir.

We are finished, though.

Come on!

Yes, sir.

The first operation has been carried out.

We can proceed now.

Good.

Chitako!

Commence operations.

Did you start yet?

Yes.

Masada went into the sewer.

Where?

Right there.

How long should it take for the fire to get to that section?

Fifteen minutes.

Is this the place? Yes, sir.

Detective Bureau.

Tominaga. Yes, sir.

All right.

Let's go.

Chintako! Keep going!

Masada! Did you see Chitako? No. You don't have any more time. The gasoline

flames will get here any minute.

I am positive. I heard her voice. It's too late!

Masada!

Wait!

It's all right, Chitako.

Miss Adam.

You're safe now, Chitako.

Masada, the car is here.

What

happened

to her?

Is she all right? What about the monster?

It's still there. We'll find out later. Give us a break. Get her away from here.

Yes. Take her to the hospital.

All right, please, let me through. Come on.

Here is my statement the creatures have been destroyed their destruction

today is no guarantee for the future.

If man perishes from the face of the Earth due to the effects of hydrogen

bombing, it is possible that the next ruler of our planet may be

the H-Man.
