Hey.

Hey!

Offer your seat to the lady.

I'm fine.

Show some respect.

Thank you.

Are you alright?

Hi Brother.

You came.

It's been like six months?

Did you lose weight?

You didn't need to come.

I'll be out in no time.

Right?

Ms. Tachibana, my lawyer.

Yeah, I know.

I brought you some clothes.

- Need anything else...
- How's Chihiro?

She's doing fine.

The doctor says she is recovering well.

See?

My girl didn't eat much.

I don't know about others, but...

the police are mean to me
for being a bad mother.

Mitsuko.

Remember our promise.

Right, right.

I shouldn't talk now.
No worry.

You know

I love secrets.

Johoku Police Station

I was surprised.

I thought your call was for
advice on your article.

I didn't know how to deal with it.

You were the only one
I could ask for help.

I hope I can be of some help.

I appreciate it.

Anyway it's good to hear Chihiro is okay.

When she was found,

her weight was like a 1-year-old.

She still remains unconscious.

Even if she wakes up,

the doctor says her brain will
remain damaged.

I see.

Mitsuko will be charged and tried.

Prosecutors seem to be
keeping her in longer than usual.

- I'll drive you.
- Thanks.

Is there anything we can do now?

A psychiatric test.

She seems strange, don't you think?

No feeling of responsibility
like it happened to someone else.

For instance,

when she was a child
did she experience the same as Chihiro?

If that's the case,

let's apply for a test.

Sogensha Publishing

I don't get it.

Why dig into
the Takou family murder now?

It's natural...

Do the insurance murder in Nagoya.
The verdict is soon.

- That case is already finished.
- Takou's case is, too.

The murderer is still at large.

The case is one year old.

One year next month.
Good timing for an article.

We wrote everything we know of.

I'll talk with people connected to the dead.

How should I put it...

They must have something
to say after a year.

Who wants to read that?

Do it, if you insist.

But

I won't promise the pages.
Depends on the article. Got it?

Thank you, boss.

When did you get so soft?

I have my reasons.

3-Year-Old in ICU
Due to Arrested Mother's Neglect

Is this...

His younger sister.

He needs something
to take his mind off of that.

TAKOU

Here again?

Newspaper? Magazine?
You're a reporter, right?

Can you tell?

You have that face.

I thought everyone got enough.

Been a year, right?

Next month.

1 year anniversary.

Oops,

said too much.

You a neighbor?

Kidding me? Neighbors all moved out.

Scary, isn't it? An entire family.

It can't be a human,
who killed such a nice family.

It's the deed of the devil or something.

Thinking that way,

then I don't feel scared.

Mr. Tanaka?

Mr. Watanabe?

Sorry to make you wait.

It's raining hard.

No umbrella?

It's very close. Shall we?

It was usually here I drank with Takou.

I still can't believe he's dead.

Murder, and not disease or accident.

You knew Takou since when?

The company entrance exam.

We both graduated from Inada University.

That's 15 years.

Correct.

There were others from Inada,
but he was the closest one.

You got along?

Guys who enter our company want to
develop and create new towns.

So did we.

But Takou was assigned to sales
and I to accounting.

So we were kind of pissed off.

Two losers griping about our careers.

Since Takou was in sales,
he had to deal with customers.

Some are difficult, so he had a hard time.

He lost weight, couldn't sleep.
He was almost neurotic.

That bad?

Customers. People are born to be so selfish.

Real estate commercials make me laugh.

Takeshi TANAKA

- Chuhai with oolong, please.
- Coming right up.

- Get you a drink?
- I'm OK.

You like to drink.

The only thing I enjoy now.

Takou and I had many drinks
before he got married.

Company parties too.

Let's have another round. Cheers.

So good!

We always had a welcome party
for new recruits.

The personnel section selected girls as
future wives for men in the company.

So they were cute.

Attention!

Everybody! Thank you for coming today.

- Thank you!
- Appreciated.

We can communicate with the new breed,

to achieve better performance.

Cut the crap!

OK. Introductions.

Hiroki Takou, sales dept.

I love mountain climbing,
since my college days.

Takou and Watanabe are Inada U grads.

Wow.

Let me do it.

How much would you like?

Some dressing?

Ms. Yamamoto, no salad for me?

Sorry.

Muramoto, that's why girls hate you.

Takou's so lucky.

- No intention.
- Here you go.

I'll get your salad.

What a gentleman!

Allow me!

It hurts.

I'm drunk.

Are you okay?

Hi, dude.

Customer trouble again?

Not about work.

Remember the welcome party?

- The one with Muramoto?
- Yes.

Remember the girl called Yamamoto?

The one you slept with.

You knew?

Crystal clear.

Shit!

Does everyone know?

So obvious since you two disappeared.

Well, yeah...

Are you going out?

Not for me.

But she thinks so.

Why not? She is a nice girl.

A nice girl who fucks the guy she just met.
A slut.

Boss called. Can't make it.
Sorry! Takou

Ms. Yamamoto?

You come to a bar like this!

Bad for you?

I didn't mean that!
You don't seem the type to be here.

Are you alone?

Yes.

It was really nice to find
you here by chance.

Why?

Honestly, I was supposed to
meet my girlfriend.

You have a girlfriend.

I hope I do.

I thought she was my girlfriend.

But I have a feeling
she thinks different.

How can I explain...

the passion for each other is different.

She cancelled our date at the last minute.

Sorry. This has nothing
to do with you.

I really know what you mean.

Really?

It's exactly the same case
with my boyfriend now.

I feel like she's just playing with me.

Same here! I feel like
I am just dreaming.

Two losers...

Stuck here!

True!

Sorry...

Why do you apologize?

Don't think I'm trying to
take advantage of you.

But I'm serious.

The more you drink,

your own lies get easier to believe.

But a lie is a lie!

I met her two or three times,

then it was time for the finishing touch.

Did you wait?

Remember the restaurant Nami mentioned?

A month in advance to reserve?
I booked for two.

Is Takou your boyfriend?

Takou started to react awkwardly,
when I talked about you.

That welcome party, right?

I remember you both disappeared.

Takou and I are friends.

What kind of girl are you?

Mr. Takou is not my boyfriend...

You realize what you're saying?

What an insult to Takou.

Now our friendship is awkward.

Dating is not just about yourself.

I'm sorry...

Talk it over with Takou.

Honestly, I really can't look at you.

She is a good girl.

We could have had a relationship,
under different circumstances.

Definitely...

I really loved her...

Right.

Don't laugh.

I can't help it!

Eat up. Drink up. It's on me.

Yeah. She was so horny.

Now you know why I was meeting her.

- Totally.
- Absolutely.

Thanks for dinner.

- Rain's gone.
- It is.

Chicks would hate what we did.

But, both sides are to blame.

Who gives a shit?

Miss Yamamoto?
Can she still have a grudge against Mr. Takou?

No, no, no.

Two years later, she married
a young colleague of ours.

I heard she has kids now.

She wanted to get married quickly
and have a family.

And if she had a grudge,
I would also be dead.

True.

Mr. Tanaka, are you
taking the subway? The railway?

Subway.

I'll take the railway...

I'm sorry...

Are you alright?

I haven't talked about Takou in a while.

Why?

How could such a nice guy get murdered?

I'll get you a cup of tea.

You can touch any of those.

I'm fond of toys.

I wanted this kind of toy.

Didn't you get any?

Never.

No toys.

Always hungry.

Mom never cooked.

What did I eat?

I remember. Brother used to cook.

I would be dead if it weren't for brother.

What's he like?

Just a regular guy.

If I can start my life all over again,

I still want the same brother.

Kid sister of the same brother.

No doubt.

Good afternoon. A seat for one?

Tanaka from Weekly Terrace.
I called yesterday.

Welcome.

Ms. Miyamura? I'm Tanaka.

I'm Miyamura.

I'll be with you shortly.

Take him to his table, Yoko.

This way, please.

Excuse me.

Kiyo, did you serve
the hot water for table 5?

Ms. Nakamura did.

Don't see any.
It's your own mistake, get it?

I'm sorry. I'll do it.

Observe, think and move on your own.
I won't get angry.

I'm so sorry.

Here's the bill.

Thank you.

That'll be 2700 yen in total.

- Are you girls studying at Bunou University?
- Yes.

I heard the campus from your conversation.

- I studied at Bunou, too.
- So you're alumna.

Here you are.

That's 3000 yen.

What major?

- Commerce.
- The same!

- Your change. Please come again.
- Thank you.

People say that I'm not the Bunou type.

Meaning?

Bunou grads know how to
swim with the tide.

How to avoid unnecessary efforts.

That's why Natsuhara married an elite
to become a housewife.

So not many Bunou grads live like you.

Bunou means no individuality.

How you look, what you possess,
are very important.

Family origins, too.

Thinking back, Natsuhara's presence
and beauty were really special.

Join our club!

Japanese Archery Club!

Please come and join us.

You a freshman?
Want to know more about us?

We are like family. Lots of girls.
We camp twice a year.

Don't know...

Camping is more like vacation.
Hokkaido in summer, Okinawa in winter.

Where have you been?

It's my friend.

We're in the same dept, right?

I remember you.

I'm Nakayama.

I'm Miyamura.

You saved me.

I'm not good at saying no.

Are you alone now?

Yes...

How about a cup of tea?

People make friends so quickly?

They are special. The Insiders.

Insiders?

Grads from Bunou High.

Let's go.

Miss Natsuhara, how about
lunch at the cafeteria?

Ah...well...

- Miss Natsuhara!
- We're waiting!

I'm sorry. They came first.

Get it. No worry!

Won't you miss Business Administration?
I can answer the roll for you!

- You shouldn't.
- I will attend the class anyway.

It's no bother.

Really you shouldn't.

- So kind of you. Thanks a lot.
- See you!

- Sorry.
- Let's go.

Yui, let's have lunch.

Isn't it disgusting?

That's really a girls matter.

Nothing among guys?

Nah. At least my friends don't have it.

Never heard of Insider or Outsider.

Guys don't talk but I'm sure they have it.
Only you don't notice.

That girl Nakayama is trying so hard to get in.
She even answers the roll.

Has it happened ever?
An Outsider getting in?

You mean promoted?

They say "promoted"?

There's a girl named Natsuhara.

So is she, uh... really...

"in"?

Not at all. She isn't even pretty.

Do looks count?

So stupid, right?

What?

Nothing.

I thought you wanted to be promoted.

Natsuhara was the first girl
to get promoted.

Even Insiders noticed her elegance.

Then the followers of Natsuhara

like Nakayama increased soon.

She was a kind of hope for them,

a bridge to the Insiders' world.

Sounds like she is a savior or something.

Does it really?

That's why she was sly and frightening.

She didn't help anybody.

She allowed her followers to imitate her
but never let them on the same stage.

So you hated Natsuhara very much.

No. It wasn't like that.

Well,

you wouldn't understand unless
you lived in that world.

- My apologies.
- No bother.

Then why did you approach her?

I would never approach her.

Miss Miyamura, right?

Yes...

I'm Natsuhara.
Where did you learn English?

I lived in the US from 10 to 15.

Wow.

Living abroad is a must to
master a language?

Not always.

Now I see why

you look mature and cool.

Don't think so.

Why don't we eat out sometime?

Your friends might not welcome me...

Why not? Sure they will.

I'll be in touch.

I'll park the car. Go first.

Everyone's here.

Thanks.

You look so nice in that.

Really?

I'd love to see that on me.

You would look great.

No way.

If only I could be like you.

Hi!

Hi! In the back.

We're late.

Know each other?

- Well...
- We work together.

Yeah.

- I see.
- Yes.

Working in an ad agency sounds nice.

The agency is small.
All we do is make copies.

Right?

True. Serve teas, carry things.
Nothing special.

Don't you meet celebrities?

Rarely.

Only models on a commercial shoot.

But you can learn a lot
if you want an advertising career.

That's true.

Sounds interesting.

I want to join you.

It's still work.

Already enough people there.

Of course.

You're so lucky, Miss Miyamura.

Yeah, lucky.

Why were you there?

Kawasaki invited me...

Don't act like that with Natsuhara.

Like what?

Ask yourself.

What could I do?
She doesn't know we're dating.

You didn't tell her about us.

If she knew,
the situation would've been different.

Show some respect if you love me!

You told me that
Junko didn't hate Natsuhara.

But that's a big lie.

She got really jealous and
started to compete.

Did she lecture you about
Insider and Outsider?

She did.

I knew it!

I really didn't get it.
That kind of competitive envy.

Junko Miyamura was a vain girl.

Natsuhara was totally different.

Thank you.

Girls. They want us to
listen to them, right?

But Natsuhara would listen to me.

She could read between the lines
and be discreet.

But her beauty made her stand out.

What did Junko say about me?

You don't need to tell me.
I'm sure she said bad things.

I did drop Junko for Natsuhara.

- I'll catch up.
- OK.

Mr. Ogata?

I thought it was you. I guessed right.

Did you have a class?

No, lacrosse practice.

- You?
- Submitted my report.

I see.

So you come to the campus.

What do you mean?
I study real hard.

No, I didn't mean that.

It's strange walking in campus with you.

Why?

Because you're special.

You are funny.

What? Why?

Who is your cousin marrying?

A surgeon in Kyoto.

A surgeon!

She doesn't want to go to Kyoto.

Do you want to marry?

Well, yeah. Someday.

I know you'll take care of your wife.

Kitchenware for the bride...

Junko would say
"Why keep women in the kitchen?"

Miss Miyamura should...

What?

No, forget it.

What? Tell me.

You're dating. She should say
more good things about you.

I heard the rumor that
he was meeting Natsuhara,

on the sly.

Word gets around campus.

But I suspect that
Natsuhara spread the rumor.

Why?

I told you she wanted to be more like me.

Maybe that's why.

Rather opposite.

She was the one who wanted
to be like Natsuhara!

A lot of the girls felt the same way.

I heard that you broke off the relationship.

Right. I began meeting Natsuhara.

I broke up on the phone.
What a nightmare.

Better in the end. No more guilt.

Break up?

Is it that bitch?

That Natsuhara?

Stop, wait!

- Where's Natsuhara?
- No idea.

Cheers!

Miss Miyamura!

- Are you OK?
- Sure.

Someone told you about that party, right?

But honestly, I didn't hate her.

How should I say...

I almost admire her bitchy behavior.
Don't you agree?

In any case,

I thought it was so typical of her
to be murdered like that.

Am I wrong?

No, I think,

you are being honest.

You don't get it.
I was better off

than the others.

I knew girls
that were treated badly by Insiders.

What I want to say is

it wouldn't be surprising
if someone had a grudge against her.

Pop Idol Kissing!!
Midnight Lovers!

Bad timing, that's it.

WEEKLY TERRACE

Gossip articles always make me
feel like quitting this job.

With all these murders,

they'll be old news in a week.

Bye.

Good night.

Takou Family Murder. Perp still at large!

This is Weekly Terrace.

Hello...?

I want to talk to who is
covering the Takou Murder case.

Is there a problem?

You got it all wrong with Mr. Takou.

Are you a relative?

I'm the one who knows
Hiroki Takou the best in the world.

Mr. Takou isn't the man you think.

Hello?

I know who killed Mr. Takou.

I came back after my dad's
company went bankrupt.

It's been five years.

- Living in Tokyo before?
- Yes.

It was my best intention to marry
a man from my father's company,

but we went down together.

We couldn't find another job.

But I wanted a baby.

Tokyo is too costly.

- So this town is?
- My father's hometown.

My husband got an insurance job,
thanks to my father's friend.

We ended up where we should be.

My husband looks happier.

He has no ambition.
This country town fits him.

The opposite of Takou.

You told me that you both
belonged to the same club in university.

The Mountaineering Club.

Japan is a hierarchical society
rather than an unequal one.

Huh?

I finally realized this truth
after all this,

Takou must've felt this
in his bones early on.

It's been two years.
How are you?

I'm fine. And?

I just wanted to hear your voice.

Liar.

Can we meet?

I don't want to.

Don't be so cruel...
I'll treat you to dinner.

Really expensive...

- So how about university?
- I go.

Great.

I never see you.

How is Izumi?

We broke up after.

You didn't when I asked you to many times.

I could be with Izumi

only because you and I had a relationship.

I was very comfortable with Izumi

but something was missing.

You had everything Izumi didn't have.

It was a balanced relationship.

You called to tell me that?

No.

What?

I want to apply for a job
at a trading firm when I graduate.

So?

Your dad has good ties in trading.

You want me to introduce you to my dad?

Why not?

Your father is a president, right?

How dare you ask me such a thing!

Is that a no?

If you were my boyfriend,
my dad would consider you.

- Meaning?
- But I have a boyfriend.

How about second place?

Do you love me more?

Absolutely.

I knew I was being a bitch to act like that.

But I thought he should know

how I felt when I was with him.

Something like revenge.

Mommy's here, sweetheart.

He fell asleep.

I guess you think I was silly.

Behaving like a child.

No,

I just

don't know why you had to
stick with Mr. Takou.

I still loved him.

His philosophy was really selfish

but it had a certain validity.

From various options,
he chose the best one

with all his heart and soul.

I had never met anyone like him.

I wanted to accept him.

A kind of maternal instinct.

I believe that building up a town means

building the lives of the people
who reside there.

We should propose happiness
through the towns we develop,

and the residents should
receive all of the fruits.

Our responsibility is very heavy

but I am confident

this is the job I can bet my life on.

I got more excited with every word.
I almost cried.

Liar.

OK, I didn't cry.

I want to leave something when I die.

For me, it's to develop a town.

My DNA lives there forever.

I'm surprised.
You wanted to be a developer.

Thanks for your efforts.
I had to take it.

It's better for you to
get a job you really want.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

Help me out.

So who helped you?

What?

Who got your job?

A sin?

Sanae Kakiuchi?

Emi Inamura?

Studying education, right?

I never expected
we were in the same university.

You know Hiroki Takou?

Yes.

What's your relationship?

What? And you?

His girlfriend.

I knew it.

Let me ask again.

What is your relationship?

He's your boyfriend.
At least, you think he is, right?

Are you making a fool of me?

He's using you.

Not only you, but also me.

Can I go now?

Did Takou get a job offer
from your father's company?

You introduced him to your father?

So what?

That's his goal.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

You can ask him now.

Did you call her?

Ask him.

Who is she?

What did you say?

You are interested in her father's company.
Not her.

Is it true?

I like you, too.

He likes you "too".

Well.

I love her as a girl.

And as a daughter
of a company president.

If her dad wasn't
from Wakaba Real Estate,

you might not love her?

Maybe.

You're using her. As you use me.

"Use" makes me sound bad.

Shouldn't we use our connections?

I always give back, don't I?

Until you get what you want, right?

See what kind of man he is?

Hey, say something.

I...

just love him.

You still don't get it, do you?

Listen.

I'm graduating from university

and going out into the
real world for the first time.

It's an important crossroad,
which can decide my future.

What's wrong with doing all I can?

Regret afterwards? No and never.

I want a good life.

I want to make the one
next to me happy, no matter what.

If we have a child,
I want to protect the child at any cost.

My child should have the best in life.

That's why I'll do anything I can do now.

Then

what are we?

Either of you could have been
beside me in the future,

if this didn't happen today.

What?

Was it something I said?

I was actually moved.

I was pissed off at first.

But once I saw that
miserable girl run off,

I calmed down.

Not just anyone can be as honest
and frank as Takou.

We're all foolish, really.

But Takou's idiocy was

also a kind of wisdom.

So he got the job?

He didn't.

He didn't take the job with
that girl's father.

He got a job offer on his own,
without connections.

That girl and I ended up with nothing.

So

you think she could have

killed Takou?

Then...

who do you accuse?

The murderer

finally realized

that we're all empty containers.

And we can't fill ourselves on our own.

I guess that broke the perp.

Not just the perp.
We're all foolish and empty.

Any kids, Mr. Tanaka?

No, I'm single.

I see.

He is sound asleep.

Is he a boy?

Yes.

Doesn't he look like him?

Like who?

They are doing their best.

Let's pray that Chihiro wants to survive.

- And?
- Yes?

You had a question?

Right. I asked Mitsuko

about your family.

But I need to
ask you more details.

Your home address was Saitama before
your parents divorced.

That was 18 years ago.

Your mother soon remarried.

With Katsuyuki Mitsuhashi.
They now have a child together.

I haven't met her for ages.

Neither that guy Mitsuhashi.

Where does your real father
live now?

I don't know.
I don't want to know.

I heard a little from Mitsuko.

You were also abused,

by your father.

I never expected that

life would be fair.

But shouldn't we have some hope in life?

A kind of devil exists.

It destroys all hope into pieces.

My mother was 16.

When my brother was born.

Many at that age used to
become mothers back then.

No way.
It was like a child giving birth to a child.

Obviously she couldn't raise one properly.

My father picked her up and they fucked

and my brother was born.

I guess

it was enough with one baby.

But then I was born.

Totally unplanned.

I could feel it.

Something was wrong.

At that time, she was about to enter junior high,

so I think I was 15.

Of course I knew about sex,

but I never could imagine

it could happen between
my father and my sister.

Totally beyond my imagination.

When did you become sure?

Right after I entered high school.

Did your sister tell you?

All began when

I was 9.

At first, it was more like child's play.

When he got drunk,
he would touch me.

I was happy first, but it escalated.

One day, he buries his face

on my stomach.

Rips open my shirt.

Buttons fly.

His eyes get glassy.

He stares and doesn't blink.

A human in front of me,

but he looked artificial.

No one in your family noticed?

My brother, probably from the start.

Maybe he was afraid,

since he was always beaten.

But when he was in high school,

my brother finally paid back.

It was midnight,

I heard my sister crying.

The first time that way.

I completely lost it,

and found myself

on top of my father

on my sister's bed.

Dad was beaten to a pulp.

When did your mother notice?

Next day,

after my father left home,

I cried and told her.

"You seduced him, bitch!" she says.

And hits me.

But when father left

he became an old man in one night.

In a way, I felt sorry for him.

Do you know who Chihiro's father is?

No.

Mitsuko handled the birth on her own?

She never told me

who the father was.

She didn't want to.

I see.

I found no trace among her belongings.

It would help to know which hospital.

Excuse me.

Hello?

Hello? It's Junko Miyamura,

who studied with Natsuhara.

Of course.
Thanks for your time the other day.

I'm calling you regarding that matter.
Can we talk now?

No problem. Go ahead.

I remember a girl

that was ruined by Natsuhara.

Why?

- Today is the commerce dept's...
- Guidance...

It's the 12th, isn't it?

Today's the 11th.

Really?

Bunou University was my choice.
Because of its prestige.

It was going to take me out of
that shitty life.

Did you pass the exam?

I gave it my all.

I knew I was on the brink.

I didn't want any regrets later.

I swore I would do everything

for a better future.

But reality surprised me.

Starting at university, girls like
me had no chance.

Do you know why?

I don't know.

Family background.

Again, my parents blocked my progress.

But...

This one middle-class girl
joined the Insiders.

She was beautiful and looked
classy to me.

What's her name?

Mitsuko.

Right.

- We're friends.
- Really?

Take her to lunch?

Yeah.

Mitsuko?

Did you have lunch?

Not yet.

Would you like to join us?

I'm alright.

C'mon let's go.

Got plans?

- Join us.
- Please.

Let's go.

Really?

Sure.

- Pasta?
- Pasta's good.

- I know a great place.
- I can't wait.

Thanks.

- Bolognese is awesome.
- Wow.

- Bolognese!
- Bolognese?

I really admired her.

I would want to be reborn like her.

Let's take a break.

Break?

I don't know which one is mine.

Somethings inside.

That was tense.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

Mitsuko!

Come here.

See you around.

- You came here as a kid?
- Ever since.

Really?

Every summer.

Minae and her family too.

We tested our courage.

- We cried.
- You cried.

OK, I cried.

I can tell.

So nice.

Come here in autumn.
Trees in color will be awesome.

My villa is big enough.

How many rooms?

Five bed rooms. No, there are seven now.

Wow!

I saw the rooms.
They are so elegant!

My mother has friends who are designers.
She loves the rooms like a hotel.

I want to see!

You do?

I do.

Alright.

Let's go.

Good morning!

I thought you left.

Going somewhere?

I'm having lunch with my friends today.

I'll drop you on the way.

Lunch with?

Old friends from kindergarten and their parents.

Sounds nice. I want to go.

Can I join?

That's not a good idea.

Why?

Do you want me to say it?

People call us rich kids,
dependent on our parents,

but we didn't choose our families.

Are we to blame?

I get it.

You are right.

Mitsuko!

He can never make the first move.

No way.

Really!

Really?

Nice to meet you.

Mitsuko.

Oh, Mitsuko.

What do you mean, "Oh"?

Nothing.

What is it?

Mitsuko's misfortune was her good looks.

No matter how well-bred, guys are guys.

It was Natsuhara who introduced
Mitsuko to the Insiders.

Natsuhara was fully aware

they would never pick Mitsuko.

What do you mean "never"?

Mitsuko was raised
by a single parent.

Her background wasn't special enough.

Insiders don't mate with her kind.

I hate to say it, but

she also had a problem.

Too ambitious, I'd say.

Natsuhara knew and used her.

Nobody noticed her as
we approached graduation.

I remember thinking I'd hate to
be in her situation.

I heard she was arrested
for child neglect recently.

Who told you that?

My university friend.

I imagined that

Natsuhara might have
planted the seed.

If I were Mitsuko Tanaka,
I might have gone and killed her.

Want a refill?

Uh, but...

Let me. I called you again and it's late.

Appreciate it.

WEEKLY TERRACE

Takou Family Murder Case.
New Details on the Hidden Truth.

Cafe Owner Murdered.
Ex-Boyfriend Questioned.
Here, take care of this.

Tanaka, get on the Takamatsu Sisters Murder
with Wakita.

What's wrong with you?

You got what you wanted.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

Hello.

I...

always wanted a baby...

A dream to live happily with a man

who really loved me,

and a baby that looked like him.

A dream anyone could fulfill.

But

that girl wouldn't smile at me.

I want to hug her, but I can't move.

Why is this happening to me?

Then

I saw Miss Natsuhara by chance.

I told you before

the girl I went to university with.

The girl I admired.

Papa!

I'm back.

Welcome home.

What? What is it?

I will never

be like her.

I finally realized it.

I tried to hold on,

coping with reality.

But everything inside me
collapsed at once.

I heard the crash in my head.

I was done.

Absolutely done for.

I wanted to ring the front door,

but the back kitchen door was open.

So convenient.

I found a knife.

Her husband was handsome.

He seemed intellectual, an elite.

Of course, we're talking about
Miss Natsuhara's husband.

Why ask?

Sol stabbed him hard.

Five times.

Six times.

That sound
when the knife hit his ribs.

Then his heart.

Oh, so much blood!

Then I went upstairs.

She and her daughter were going to bed.

She couldn't move, seeing me drenched in blood.

So it was easy.

Her knife was first class,
so the drive

into her belly was smooth as silk.

And also

her daughter under her.

Who are you talking to?

Finished your call?

Yes.

This is hard to say...

That call...

They want me to tell you...

Chihiro passed away this morning.

Daiki, help me
with these clothes.

Okay.

Mitsuko was lucky to have a big brother.

Without him, Mitsuko might have
met the same fate as Chihiro.

We're going out!

Take the sandwiches.

See you.

We'll be back for dinner.

There is nothing

I can do now.

Life goes on.

I can't repeat the same mistake I made.

I don't want to destroy the happiness
I have now.

That's why...

you didn't help Mitsuko when she was pregnant.

When she came, I was alone
and my son at school.

My husband was out to work.

She asked me if I knew a place where
she could deliver a baby secretly.

Her wish was for a healthy baby.

That was all that mattered to her.

Whatever the fate,

the baby was born into.

But to have a baby that was

forcefully impregnated by her father.

How can she feel that way?

I think you misunderstand.

Excuse me?

I see.

You didn't know.

Then,

who is Chihiro's father...?

A secret.

A secret between you and me,

makes me so happy.

I love

secrets.

Don't worry

about Chihiro.

I'll take care of her.

Thanks.

You know

I never raised a hand against her.

I saw how you were beaten by father.
I knew what it meant.

I would never do that to her.

Thank you, my dear brother.

You're the only one

who I love from my heart.

That's why

I'm sorry.

Take a seat.

I'll get off soon.
