Father, do you have any last words?

Do you have any last words?

Everyone is waiting

to hear your last words, father.

l do have

his will with me.

According to the wish of Mr. Sahei,

when all the kindred are gathered together,

l shall announce his will.

He has passed away.

Excuse me.

Where is Nasu Hotel?

Walk straight here and turn right at the corner.

Turn left when you see the first junction, then

turn right again. The third house on your right.

There is a signboard in front of the house.

Although it's called Hotel, it's just an old motel.

lt's okay for me. l don't think if it's dirty too.

Someone asked me to stay in that hotel.

l am working at the hotel.

Song of the century, song of the heart, Tokyo. . . Hey!

Please write down your name and address.

The police are rather annoying nowadays.

Kindaichi Kosuke.

That's a weird name.

This is beautiful. . .

Country has fallen, but rivers and mountains remain. . .

What about the meals? Do you have any meal coupon?

l am starving. lt'll be crowded at night.

Please take care of this. l think it should be enough.

How long do you plan to stay here?

Well. . .

How long am l gonna stay. . .

Attorney Furudate's office.

Mr. Kindaichi?

Welcome back.

Yes. . . yes. . .

Sorry to keep you waiting.

l am Wakabayashi who sent you letter.

All right. l will arrive at your place in 30 minutes.

We shall talk about the details later.

Hey, is that the mansion of lnugami?

Yes.

We all called him lnugami-sama.

l heard the founder Mr. Sahei. . .

passed away 7 months ago.

That's right.

His funeral was huge.

People living in this neighbourhood

are grown under the protection of lnugami Medicine.

ls that woman one of lnugamis too?

She is Ms. Tamayo.

She is not a relative of lnugami-sama,

l heard she is the offspring of his benefactor.

That's why she stays in lnugami mansion too.

And she is very pretty.

Really, is she a looker?

Then l should watch carefully.

Help! Someone help!

Where is the back door?

Saruzo!

Hey, come over here.

Please keep this boat balance

and bring it to the shore.

Someone made a hole at the bottom of the boat.

Mr. Kindaichi, right?

Yes.

You have a guest.

Thanks.

Wait. . . wait a minute.

Haru, what does he do for a living?

He has a binocular.

What is it?

He's dead.

Do you know him?

Mr. Wakabayashi.

Police chief. . .

Oh, welcome.

l'd like to see Kindaichi Kosuke.

Do you know me, Mr. Furudate?

Not really.

He is an important witness in Wakabayashi's murder case.

Such a frivolous man.

When l asked his occupation, he said he is a private detective.

How dare he say so!

But it's true.

Did Wakabayashi ask you to do this?

The letter was sent together with this book.

ln the letter, it stated that ''Something big

might happen to the lnugamis soon.

This will be a blood battle.''

Even if something might happen,

why would Wakabayashi know?

lt reminds me of something.

What is it?

We keep the will of lnugami Sahei

in the safe of our office.

But. . .

l think someone might have seen it.

Do you think Wakabayashi had seen it?

Only Wakabayashi and l could open the safe.

But l don't know how much he had read.

The anatomy showed that there is toxic in the liver of the victim.

Liver?

Was here anything weird about the will?

Really weird indeed.

Mr. Kindaichi.

Yes.

l'd like to ask you. . .

to investigate this case for me.

Really? That'd be a great help!

l was worried no one would cover my expenses

since Wakabayashi is not around anymore.

Thank you.

Nice working with you.

Why wasn't the will being read out at that time?

He had nine family members.

l could not read the will

because one of them was absent.

And there is another person, although not a relative. . .

Ms. Nomomiya Tamayo was there too.

She knows the lnugamis for a long time.

Ms. Tamayo?

Why?

Oh, nothing.

Who was absent?

Sukekiyo, the son of his eldest daughter Matsuko.

Sukekiyo joined the army and went overseas.

He is still alive but didn't come back.

What happen to him now?

Half a month ago, someone told me

He was demobilized at Hakata.

Then?

Ms. Matsuko went to pick him up right away.

But both of them haven't returned at all.

How many children did Sahei-sama have?

Sahei-sama didn't get married in his life.

He had 3 daughters.

The eldest daughter Matsuko grew up in the mansion.

The second daughter, Takeko.

Takeko was living in Tokyo,

but Matsuko asked her to return to Nasu.

Her son Suketake and daughter Sayoko came along.

Mom.

lsn't this belonged to Aunt Matsuko?

She might be upset if you play it without her permission.

By the way, what happened to Aunt Matsuko?

Suketake, Sayoko,

she is always impulsive.

What important is the will.

l will wait no matter how long it takes.

The third daughter is called Umeko.

She came from Osaka.

She has a son, Suketomo.

Suketomo,

how is your relation with Sayoko going?

Not bad. l do it for dad and mom.

Stop being eccentric!

Sayoko should be able

to get a big portion of legacy.

lt'd be a lot of money combining ours.

lsn't it?

Toranosuke, Takeko's husband,

is the branch manager of lnugami Medicine in Tokyo.

Koukichi, Umeko's husband, is the branch manager in Osaka.

This is boring.

l only planned to stay for a few days.

Never thought we have to wait for so long.

lt's better to stay here

than a hectic place like Tokyo.

That's right. You need patience in life.

lt looks like you don't care much about the content of the will.

Yeah.

Dad.

Aunt Matsuko might come back with Sukekiyo tonight.

Really?

Only we go to meet them?

What is Matsuko thinking?

And even make a big deal out of it.

She asked us to wait for her at the back door.

Welcome back.

Only two of you come, right?

Yes.

Who is he?

Sukekiyo.

Come with me.

The guest is here.

Let me introduce, this is Kindaichi Kosuke.

Wakabayashi passed away. So he accompanies me to come here.

Of course l get the permission from the lady.

Mr. Furutake,

So. . .

please start.

l shall read out the will now.

Before this, l need to ask Ms. Matsuko,

whether the man over there

is really Sukekiyo.

l am not questioning you,

but can l have a look at his face?

What do you mean?

Do you suspect

this is not the real Sukekiyo?

That's not what l mean. . .

What do the rest of you think?

This is improper.

What do you think, Umeko?

Should we ask him to take off the veil

and show his face?

Of course.

What about you?

Don't keep quiet. Say something.

Sukekiyo, take off the veil!

Sukekiyo was wounded seriously

fighting the battle for the country.

That's why he has to wear the mask.

Sukekiyo,

show your face

to these cruel people!

Sukekiyo, enough.

Mr. Furudate,

you should have no suspicion now, do you?

l can guarantee

he is Sukekiyo.

So,

please read the will now.

Okay then.

l shall start reading now.

First,

All the property of lnugami

and three heirlooms, the axe, harp and chrysanthemum,

are transferred to Ms. Nomomiya

Tamayo under the following conditions.

What? Tamayo would get the legacy?

Second, Nomomiya Tamayo must marry

one of the three grandsons

of lnugamni Sahei.

Tamayo can make her own choice among them.

lf she does not marry anyone of them,

she would lose her inheritance.

Third,

if none of them are not willing to marry Tamayo

or he is dead,

three of them would lose their relevant inheritance.

Tamayo can marry anyone else.

Fourth,

once Tamayo loses her inheritance,

Sukekiyo, Suketake and Suketomo will inherit the legacy.

The legacy will be divided into five.

Each of them will get a share.

The remaining two shares

will be given to Aonuma Shizuma, the son of Aonuma Kikuno

Aonuma. . .

Kikuno?!

Fifth,

lf Tamayo, Sukekiyo, Suketake and Suketomo are dead,

the legacy of lnugami will be inherited by Aonuma Shizuma.

No way! You are lying!

This will is a fake!

No!

Someone forged this will to get the legacy of lnugami!

As the lawyer and advisor of lnugamis. . .

This is just a piece of paper!

This will is legally valid.

Shut up!

When lnugami set this will. . .

This is a fake will!

Every word in this will is true and you must comply.

There is no way this will is true

if he didn't leave anything to his daughters.

What kind of lawyer are you?

Umeko,

how can we let a non-related woman inherit the legacy?

That's right.

What kind of nonsense is this. . .

What about us?

Now we have to wait for Ms. Tamayo to make the decision.

l'm too heartbroken for tears!

That's right.

Listen.

Don't just blame on Tamayo.

Aonuma Kikuno and Shizuma have occupied a big share too.

Shut up! Don't mention them at all!

How could he? My name wasn't even mentioned in the will!

Stop crying!

You are not the only one being neglected, Sayoko!

l seldom

see you be so emotional.

Why is it?

How can you remain calm?

Stop crying, Sayoko.

You must be calm under this situation.

lf Suketake gets to marry Tamayo,

we'd get the legacy.

l was upset though.

Excuse me.

Now you even plan a plot on us, huh?

Yeah, l believe so.

One fifth of the legacy is a big amount too.

You might be able to build a few high-rise buildings in Osaka.

You are optimistic, huh?

ls it okay for you

to let Tamayo gets 4 times of that amount?

That's odd.

What is?

Why does Aonuma Shizuma have inheritance?

That's right.

Father was 50 years old odd.

Giving his legacy

to the son of a worker in his factory?

Oh, it's you. . .

Mr. Furudate.

About the content of will yesterday. . .

What about it?

ln danger.

Who?

Ms. Tamayo.

You mean, someone might try to kill her?

Or on the contrary.

On the contrary?

The murderer might make himself looks like a victim.

lt's a common occurrence.

Someone like you

always have to suspect everyone, huh?

Why are human beings so cold-hearted. . .

By the way, Suketake and Suketomo

have something to show us.

They asked us to go the Nasu Shinto at once.

Everyone come here to leave their hand prints

before they go to a battle

and it'd be kept in this shrine

to pray for their fortunes of war.

Why is this for?

l want to prove if that man in mask

is the real Sukekiyo.

No two persons have same fingerprint in this world.

Ask that man to make a hand print

and compare with it.

l'd like to ask Mr. Furudate to witness that

this was indeed the hand print of Sukekiyo

before he left for the war.

You are also wondering

whether that man is the real Sukekiyo too,

aren't you?

Of course.

But his mother Ms. Matsuko is so sure. . .

You don't know Aunt Matsuko.

lf Sukekiyo is dead,

she has no way to get the legacy.

Do you think about this your own?

No, Shinto priest told us about it,

and we thought it might be useful.

Thank you for your concern.

l had forgotten about it.

But someone told me the hand print

of Sukekiyo should be kept here.

Who was that?

Ms. Tamayo.

Huh, Ms. Tamayo?

Do you remember this pocket watch?

Grandpa Sahei told me

to give it to my husband when l grow up.

So he asked me to keep it.

lt's broken,

Now l need someone to fix it.

The pocket watch was broken during the war.

Only Sukekiyo managed to fix it.

l have been waiting for you since the demobilization.

Can you fix it for me?

My hands are not skilful now. Maybe next time.

Who is it? The door is open.

Do you have vacant room?

Aunt,

so you won't let Sukekiyo prove it?

How many times do you want me to say?

His face has changed, but he is definitely Sukekiyo!

Sister,

why don't you just let him make a print

to clear up the suspicion?

What do you think, Umeko?

l agree.

lt'll be even doubtful

if you refuse to do it.

Sukekiyo,

although aunt disagrees,

but this is about you.

Are you going to prove it or not?

Sukekiyo

is the eldest grandson of lnugami.

ln the old days, he'd be called young master.

Your master.

But you. . .

l won't

let you insult my son like this!

Even if he wants, l won't let him do it!

Sukekiyo, let's go.

Hey, trying to run away?

Excuse me.

Please register here.

Please write it for me.

Me?

Just write what l say.

That wouldn't be proper.

Why?

Well. . .

l don't know how to write.

What is it?

Nothing.

That young man doesn't know how to write.

Forget about the registration,

he has scar on his face.

He even wears scarf in the room.

Would the rent be a problem?

Yeah.

You better check it out.

Do you have to go out at this late hour? Where are you going?

l have something to do.

Good morning, this is police department.

No. . .

Please come over at once, Kindaichi.

A police called and told me. . .

The prediction of Wakabayashi has come true!

You are not allowed to enter!

Excuse me, please let me enter.

Oh, please let him come in.

Mr. Kindaichi, this is bad.

What happened, Mr. Furudate?

Suketake is murdered!

What?

Please come at once!

Don't get too close to the doll.

Saruzo made the Kiku dolls.

Sahei-sama liked it a lot, so he made it every year.

This year, he made the Kikuhata, third

scene of Three Scrolls of Kiichi Hougen. . .

Watch carefully, Kindaichi, do you get it?

When l take a closer look,

the dolls look like the family members of lnugami.

That is. . . Suketake!

Who found the victim?

Saruzo.

Let me see Suketake!

Suketake is dead! There's no way for you to see him!

Mom, calm down!

Don't be stupid!

l want to kill the murderer!

Stop it, Takeko!

Don't stop me!

l could understand how upset Takeko must be now.

But why did the head of the doll get changed?

lt took a lot of effort to do it.

Senba.

Yes, sir.

l think the murderer killed Suketake here,

cut his head and threw the body into the lake.

We have to find the body in the lake.

Easy for you to say.

l found this.

Do you recognize the brooch?

Yes.

Whose is it?

lt belonged to Ms. Tamayo.

Maybe she lost it here before yesterday.

No. l remember clearly

Ms. Tamayo wore this in the Shinto yesterday.

Now. . .

l shall ask Sukekiyo to make the hand print.

l was hot-headed

and refused it.

l never thought things would have become this way.

And. . .

now it looks like it's Sakukiyo and l who were to blame.

Sukekiyo wants to do this.

This. . .

belongs to you, right?

Yes, where did you find it?

At the crime scene.

You went to observatory last night, didn't you?

What happened?

Well. . .

l . . .

l went to meet Suketake at observatory last night

to discuss something with him.

Sorry, l'm late.

You never ask me to meet you alone.

l didn't believe it at first.

There's fingerprint of Sukekiyo

on the surface of the pocket watch.

Please compare it to the hand print in Shinto.

l never thought you'd do me this favour.

l just want to clear up the suspicion on Sukekiyo

as soon as possible.

l know this is none of my business.

l'd get it validated by tomorrow.

Do you suspect

that man isn't the real Sukekiyo too?

Good night then.

Tamayo.

Who would you choose among three of us?

l love you for a long time. lt has nothing to do with the legacy.

l haven't thought about it yet. Excuse me.

No!

Be my woman.

Be my woman!

No. . .

Saruzo.

l'll kill you if you do this again.

l left the observatory with the help of Saruzo.

ls that all?

Yes.

Did you make the report?

Yes.

All right.

Hey, Senba.

The boat used to shift the body

and the murder weapon was found

at Kannon Cape at the north side of the lake.

Who made the call?

A patrolman just called.

The boat has the sign of lnugami.

Saruzo is the servant in charge of the boat.

He never mentioned to us

that a boat was missing.

lt was Saruzo who found the head of the victim.

The last person who saw Suketake. . .

were Tamayo and Saruzo.

Tamayo's confession was rather vague.

And there was no other witness.

What is the relationship between Tamayo and Saruzo?

Saruzo was adopted

by Sahei 1 0 years ago. . .

and has been staying with lnugamis ever since.

He joined the army during the war.

But l am not too sure about his background.

Sahei did ask Saruzo to protect Tamayo

with his life before he died.

The other servants always talk about Saruzo behind his back.

Then it's logical

to say that he might kill for Tamayo.

l see.

l get it now.

Tamayo and Saruzo are the criminals.

Senba, follow two of them.

Chief.

What is it?

The owner of the hotel at Kannon Cape

provided some funny clues.

Follow me.

Let's go there now.

Do you mind if l come along?

You should stay here and wait for the report of fingerprints.

Really?

Go with them, Kindaichi.

l can wait here.

This car is terrible.

Yeah.

The army of occupation sold it to you, right?

Here we are.

So this is Kashiwaya.

Excuse me, we are the police.

Someone who looked like a demobilized

soldier stayed here last night?

Yes. He was rather funny.

Oh, did he cover his face?

Yes.

Show me the registration book.

What is it written?

Yamada Saburo. . .

Who wrote this?

lt's not written by him.

Did you write this?

No, it was written by my wife.

Yes, l wrote it.

When did that man arrive here?

8pm last night.

Then he went out at 1 0pm

and came back around 1 2.

He left here 5am this morning.

lf there was a man in army uniform involved,

we have to start the investigation right from the beginning.

The demobilized soldier

was staying here, right?

He was here between 8 to 1 0pm.

Really?

At that time, the lnugamis

were arguing about the hand prints.

Chief Todoroki, it means

there are two men wearing a mask.

Two men?

l am Furudate.

Please come in.

May we?

Yes.

Let me introduce, this is Fujisaki.

He is in charge of the fingerprint matching.

Really?

So, Mr. Fujisaki.

Okay.

So. . .

l shall announce the result of the checking.

Without using any obscure terms,

l shall tell the result straight away.

Both the hand prints match.

lt means,

this young man over here. . .

is Sukekiyo indeed.

The prints are the best evidence.

You like smoking, huh?

Yes.

Do Ms. Matsuko and Ms. Takeko smoke too?

My elder sister smokes too. Why?

Nothing.

Mom, don't you find it weird?

Everyone must be exhausted.

lt has been a long day.

Let's take a good rest.

Tamayo, can l talk to you?

Please don't choose Suketomo to be your husband.

There are only two candidates left after my brother died.

One of them

has a face that you can't even look at.

That's why l'm worried.

Tamayo,

l am pregnant.

ls it. . .?

Yes.

lt is Suketomo's child.

Tamayo, let me say the last time.

lf you choose Suketomo,

l will hate you for the rest of my life.

l am fine.

What was that?

Let's go and have a look.

lt's Sukekiyo.

Please lend me the torch light.

ls he dead?

No, he just passes out.

Who knocked him down?

What is it?

Nothing,

And then?

Yes.

The death time of victim lnugami Suketake

was between 1 1 to 1 2pm in the afternoon.

The murder weapon was stabbed from his back.

What kind of murder weapon?

Something like a pair scissors.

Scissors?

Scissors that used to shape trees or cut flowers.

lf it was a flower scissors, it might belong to a woman. . .

The murder prepared both the scissors and

the firewood knife to cut off the head.

You may also say there were two different

people who used them respectively.

You mean, it was not only one murder?

That is possible too.

And. . .

was the gold pocket watch found in the coat of the victim?

No.

Tamayo said she passed the watch

to Suketake at the observatory.

l knew she was lying.

l don't think a looker like her would lie.

Listen here.

There are only two kinds of humans.

Good and evil.

Flower scissors?

That's right. Flower scissors.

According to the witness of a servant,

you have borrowed the flower scissors of Ms. Matsuko.

Do you have it with you?

Well. . .

ls there a problem?

You mean,

you didn't see it

during the wake of Suketake?

Did you have it with you the day before?

The day Suketake got murdered.

What is it with the flower scissors?

ln fact, we have found out

the murder weapon that killed Suketake was a flower scissors.

Are you saying l am the murderer?

That's terrible! l won't forgive you for accusing me!

Calm down, lady.

We are looking for the murderer

and we hope you could help us.

l have been helping people all my life.
