This is highly recommended.

You should have it too.

That's right!

Now, it comes with a free engraving...

for your name and birthday.

Call us now to place your order.

Well...

The product in the advertisement.

Yes, I want to buy one.

Let's start work now.

Let's start.

Rest time is over.

- Can you please clean up? - Got it.

Yasuda Yoshiyuki.

Born on September 10, 1950,

in Kagawa Prefecture.

Mr. Yasuda, according to the police investigation report,

around 11pm on April 2,

in the parking lot of 5-chome Josai Street,

you ran away after stabbing...

26-year-old Azuma,

an off-duty patrol officer of the Josai Police Force.

Am I right?

You're right.

I am willing to accept any punishment.

Mr. Yasuda.

What have you done before this?

What?

I mean, in terms of sports.

You have a good physique.

I've done judo.

Judo?

Did you surrender yourself the next day?

After watching the morning news, I found out he died.

I realized that I've made a grave mistake.

Well, what was the reason?

You stabbed him after having a dispute...

on the way you parked your car?

You're so reckless.

Why were you carrying a knife?

For self-defense.

I have been bullied by young gangsters before.

And you were defeated by them?

There were a lot of them.

That's why you carry a knife around?

No matter how well your physique or even if you know judo,

you cannot escape from being a victim of a bully.

- Here you go. - I want to ask...

Isn't fourth rank in judo pretty high up in the ranks?

Even so, it cannot outmatch a large number of people.

Fighting is all about experience.

A good fight ends within 10 seconds.

The rule of thumb is to attack your opponent first.

Suetsugu, you made it sound so unconvincing.

Nevertheless, isn't it weird for someone with judo fourth rank...

to carry a knife around for self-defense?

- Mr. Kuryu, your package is here. - Hello.

The TV home shopping again?

What did you buy this time?

- Sign here, please. - Here?

What did you buy?

It's done.

- Here. Thank you. - Thank you very much.

- What did you buy? - This thing is amazing.

- How? - You'd be surprised.

You really like buying things from TV home shopping.

Is it really that interesting?

Right, raise your hand if your eyes get tired easily.

- Me. - Me.

It is quite common then.

What is that?

Yes, what is that?

- This looks great from the outside. - Really?

This will provide a soothing effect on your tired eyes.

I think your eyes got tired from watching all the TV.

Right, that is possible too.

Another useless item!

Excuse me, there's another package.

Sorry, I almost left this out.

Is Ms. Amamiya Maiko here?

- Me? - This is your package.

Amamiya, you bought something too?

How is this possible?

This is my research data.

- Research data? - All right.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Suetsugu, have some nuts.

What?

What on earth?

I told them to send this to my house.

I finally got it.

I want a cocktail.

- Jeez! What are you doing? - You're really good at this.

How did I lose?

You're done working overtime?

Chief really has no mercy.

You know her?

We're colleagues.

We just became friends with Kuryu.

Friends? I am not looking for that kind of relationship.

What are you talking about?

Hey, both of them are great.

They're amazing at darts.

Didn't I win once and lose once?

Can the both of you let me win too?

Wait, do you want to bet?

That's not a good idea.

Why?

Then let's place a bet on the girl.

Hey, don't be rude.

Did you have too much to drink?

Maybe.

- I apologize for that. - It's fine.

I got this.

I'll get the bull's-eye soon.

You're a paralegal?

That's a very serious job.

But there are a lot of weird people in my office.

Mr. Makabe, you seem so much better than them.

Everyone says I am too serious.

I really don't know what is wrong with me today.

Having such a conversation with a girl I've just met.

Do you want to move to another bar?

There's a place I know.

- Kuryu. - Yes?

Can I borrow her for a moment?

You don't have to get my consent.

Right.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Yes, see you tomorrow.

Let's go.

What's wrong with this dart?

Don't blame the dart.

- See you. - See you.

That's bad.

Let me get this call.

Hello.

I am still working hard here,

and there you are, drinking?

Right.

Regarding the murder case that you're in charge of,

we received a notice.

- The suspect with judo fourth rank? - Yes.

When he was in the detention center,

he said he had turned himself in on behalf of someone else.

What did you say?

Are you serious?

(Episode 6)

To sum up,

everyone thinks that I am a stubborn person.

But it doesn't matter.

I have no time to have fun anyway.

So, to you, today is a special day then?

Why is that so?

I'm not sure.

Do you feel that this is fate?

Excuse me.

Sorry, I have to pick this up.

Hello.

Hey, sorry.

Are you having fun?

I am having fun, I think.

This place is amazing.

Mr. Makabe is also a gentleman.

I never knew you were so easygoing.

I was surprised.

How can I help you?

Right.

Regarding the murder case today, where did you put the files?

At the bottom drawer behind my seat.

Bottom drawer?

What is going on?

I found it.

Should I go there?

Don't worry about me.

Please go ahead and enjoy your date.

Sorry.

Let's go take a look at the back of the bar.

At the back?

- I am good here. - Don't worry. Let's go.

- No, thank you. - Come along.

Hold on.

It's time to call it a day.

Stay where you are.

Put down your glasses and take out your cigarettes.

What?

We are the police.

We're arresting you on the grounds of running gambling activities.

Everyone, please do not move.

Stay where you are.

Catch him!

Mr. Makabe!

Everyone, stop moving.

Block the exit.

Don't kick, don't step on it!

I said stop stepping on it, seriously.

Hey, it has nothing to do with me.

Please, Inspector.

Can I go?

Excuse me, I'm a paralegal.

- A prosecutor's paralegal. - Shut your mouth!

What bad luck.

That's all.

- Thank you. - Next.

Come on, it is already morning.

Can you let me go to work?

Good morning.

Good morning.

I received a call from the police station,

asking me to pick up my paralegal.

It scared me.

I have been here twice myself already.

You're thinking that I'm stupid, right?

I followed Mr. Makabe, then encountered this kind of thing.

Goodness.

Must not be a good year for you.

Chief will definitely scold me.

No, he won't.

Really?

Really.

Chief is not stupid.

Why would he be angry about this?

Let's go now.

Stupid!

What do you think you're doing?

Sorry.

A paralegal was arrested by the policemen.

This is unheard of.

You big liar.

This feels good.

What were you doing there?

Who did you go with?

I went in accidentally.

This is awful. That was a gambling den!

Why would Amamiya go to that sort of place?

- She will never go there alone. - Must've followed someone.

Don't tell me she's dating someone who loves to gamble?

Amamiya will never date someone who will jeopardize her future.

You're right, she's very cautious.

Even Egami hasn't held her hands before, am I right?

Shut up, you don't know anything.

And why are you using past tense?

What are you laughing at?

You should put yourself in my shoes.

I can't believe you did that.

- It's gone? - What?

It's gone!

Hey, I am not done talking yet!

Kuryu.

What?

Did you see the envelope...

It's nothing.

Where are you going? Hey!

Hey!

Amamiya did not do anything wrong.

But I hope this won't happen again.

Yes, truly sorry.

Allow me to change the topic.

Regarding the murder case of the off-duty police officer,

who is the one in charge?

I think Kuryu is in charge.

Is it Kuryu?

Please make sure he investigates this case carefully.

Why would you say that?

The chief police arrested...

the president of a loan shark ring after releasing Mr. Yasuda.

He will be sent to the Prosecutor's Office today.

Today?

The police are acting very rashly...

because their colleague was killed.

Seems like they want to close the case quickly.

There may be unjustness in doing that.

To avoid that, please make sure that Kuryu investigates properly.

Yes, got it.

Good.

Pink envelope?

The package has my name on it.

There was a box in the size of a pencil case in it.

Other than the gambling evidence,

everything else has been returned to their respective owners.

Is there a confiscated item list?

Can you show it to me?

You're a paralegal, right?

Will you show it to me if I am not?

What is inside the box?

That...

You can't say it out?

There is nothing suspicious in it.

I see you're quite agitated.

That's because I did not sleep.

I was stuck here until morning though I had nothing to do with it.

Please excuse me.

I might have dropped it at the bar.

I'll go take a look.

Yes.

Hello.

The suspect who needs to be interrogated...

will be arriving soon.

Can someone else take my place?

What happened to you?

Did something happen?

Got it, I'll come over now.

Excuse me.

Mr. Otagawa.

Your company often appears in newspapers and magazines.

Or should I say,

you've killed a lot of people?

Jeez, sir.

They've killed themselves willingly.

But you've done all sorts of brutal things to them, right?

Jeez, sir.

- Answer him properly! - Why are you so mad?

That's because he is acting so nonchalantly.

- She's really interesting. - Right?

Let me ask you this.

Anyone who borrows money should return it,

isn't that the way it is?

When someone is pressured, they would do anything.

As for Mr. Yasuda,

did you pressure him to turn himself in for you?

Isn't he a criminal?

Why did you let him go?

We found your fingerprints on the murder weapon.

Someone stole the knife from me when I went fishing last time.

It has been a month since then.

You mean Mr. Yasuda stole your knife?

That, I do not know.

We have a witness who saw you fleeing the scene.

- Sir. - What?

From February 4 to yesterday,

I was in Kyushu.

Okay.

That incident occurred on the night of February 4.

I was in Yufuin, enjoying the hot spring.

Yufuin?

Is that so?

Then you have a very solid alibi.

Yes.

You can go ahead and check on it.

Yes, we'll investigate thoroughly.

Okay.

The testimony of the hotel staff, signature on the guest book,

hotel receipts, and the stub of the boarding pass.

Have you gathered all of those?

Yes. He has a perfect alibi.

So he is innocent?

What are you dissatisfied with?

Something is fishy. I'm sure about it.

It's about the hotel.

Wait, where was it?

Remember this news from three years ago?

It's a hoax, "Children of the Soil".

Hotel creates a hoax to solicit guests.

Yes.

Isn't it bad?

It is too easy to buy off these kinds of people.

Can you judge by looking at this?

That is "Children of the Soil".

Yes, "Children of the Soil".

Also, the lady boss of the hotel borrowed money from Mr. Otagawa.

Why didn't you say that earlier?

Are you saying that Mr. Otagawa is planting false evidence?

We just need to prove that Mr. Otagawa...

was here in Tokyo that night.

Hey.

Don't force it.

Make sure no one falls victim to injustice.

- Yes. - Please.

- I'm counting on you. - Got it.

- Yes. - Good.

Are you going somewhere?

I need to go to last night's bar.

The bar where you were deceived?

Please don't say it like that.

What are you going to do there?

That...

Why don't we do a search at Mr. Otagawa's house?

- I'll meet you there later. - You fool,

if you do it like that...

the police would have gotten all the evidence already.

Let's go to Mr. Otagawa's house.

Hold this, Ms. Paralegal.

Let's go, Ms. Paralegal.

It looks like a loan shark's home.

There's a horse!

That's enough.

What are you looking for?

I'm looking for evidence to prove that Mr. Otagawa is in Tokyo...

on the night of February 4.

I think it would be faster...

- if you ask the police. - This is awesome!

Hi, I'm the prosecutor.

There's nothing here.

Let's leave.

What is this?

Come here, take a look at this.

Look at this.

What is this?

- Matches. - Of course, I know that.

Can't we work happily?

These are matches.

Seems like he's a match collector?

Are you asking me?

Why do you have bloodshot eyes?

I have not slept for more than 30 hours.

- Let's seize these. - Seize the matches?

Yes, all of it.

We need to count and record these.

I knew it.

What?

No. Why can't I open it?

What are you doing?

What? It's you, Ms. Amamiya?

Sorry, are you here on patrol?

Yes, it's the scene of the gambling den after all.

Can you let me in for a moment?

Are you here to do a search? Got it.

Thank you. What a relief.

Wait, forget it.

I'm scared that something might happen.

Why?

Because you were there too, Ms. Amamiya.

I can't let someone involved in this go into the crime scene...

due to my personal judgment.

I am innocent. Please help me.

But, didn't you get deceived here?

Please don't say that.

"Shizuoka."

"Nagasaki."

"Shibuya."

This...

Not written.

"New York."

"Shibuya."

This...

"Aoyama."

"Odaiba."

"Shizuoka."

(Prosecutor: Egami Tatsuo)

Look here, the judge is not a devil.

If you'd just tell the truth...

and show that you're repenting,

surely he'll reduce your sentence.

Then don't sue me.

I'll return all the Akkeshi oysters that I stole.

Please take her away.

Wait, what do you mean by that?

It's just oysters, what's all the fuss about?

You tax thief.

Is she even repenting?

I'll bring in the next suspect.

Egami, I need your help.

I don't drink coffee.

- Thank you. - What is it?

It's about the bar doubling as a gambling den, Hungry Heart.

The bar you were deceived in?

Please don't say that.

Can you tell the police to let me into the bar for a moment?

What are you going to do there?

- I lost something important there. - What is it?

Wallet? Key? Diary?

Why would you go to that kind of place?

I'll ask someone else for help.

Wait, I understand.

Hungry Heart, right?

We want to go in and investigate.

Can you open the doors for us?

Yes, got it.

Thank you very much.

Right. We will send our paralegal over.

Thank you for your help.

Paralegal?

Is there any problem?

Nothing much.

One time, she came to us looking for the list of confiscated items.

Another time, she tried to break into the crime scene.

Even if she's from the Prosecutor's Office,

she shouldn't do that, don't you think so?

That's really too much.

Don't you worry. There is no such person here.

I was talking about Ms. Amamiya.

She kept talking about some envelope and its contents.

That intrigued our investigators.

What's wrong?

Is that so?

Forget about what I said earlier.

What?

Thank you.

Please give up, Amamiya.

Why?

Hachioji mentioned that recently, there's some conflict...

between the Police and the Prosecutor's Office.

And that it is best...

not to aggravate the police in the near future.

What?

I'm sorry.

Targeted by the police?

Amamiya? Is it a joke?

I was thinking the same.

Don't tell me she has been dragged into the crime.

- What crime? - That...

My stomach hurts.

Are you all right?

You should go for an endoscopy.

I hate the feeling of vomiting.

You're talking like a child again.

You're so cute, Chief.

Don't joke with me.

It's true that Amamiya is a bit strange recently.

Seems like she can't calm down.

I wonder what are the contents in the envelope she was looking for.

There must be something bad in it.

Might it be something related to gambling?

After all, she keeps going in and out of that bar.

There must be something going on.

I've gone through almost all the places in Tokyo.

It would be interesting...

if he happened to be in one of these places...

the same time stated in his alibi.

- One by one... - We should ask them one by one?

You get what I'm trying to do?

"Kanda Soba Shop."

"Akasaka Shirataki Noodle Shop."

"Chuo City..."

"Hungry Heart."

"LOVELOVE Club."

- What did you say? - What?

"LOVELOVE Club."

Why? That hurts.

Isn't Hungry Heart the name of the bar?

The one you got deceived in?

Please don't say that.

This must be a miracle. Let's go.

No way I'm going there.

That place is locked. There's no one there.

We might find some clues there.

Impossible.

That place has been raided by the police.

I'm giving that shop the least priority.

What?

(Takimoto Sushi)

Takimoto Sushi.

It's here.

Yes.

They're still preparing, is it okay?

Is anyone here?

Do you know Mr. Otagawa?

He's not here.

Seriously?

- He's not here. - Thank you.

Let's go.

Where to, next?

- What's the rush? - Where are we going next?

You're not listening to me.

Is it this one?

"Rencontre."

Rencontre.

Why is it called "Ran"?

So dirty.

Mr. Otagawa?

Between February 4 and 8,

has he been here at all?

I haven't seen him here recently.

Thank you. Let's move on to the next one.

Thank you.

There's a hidden agenda?

Yes, about the raid where they caught Amamiya.

They were not there for the gambling den.

Where did you get the news from?

Police Audiovisual Press Club.

Let's eat a bowl of noodles before we continue.

I'm not eating.

I'm starving.

You will not starve to death by skipping a meal. Let's continue.

Where do you want to go then?

Are you willing to come with me?

Why were they raiding the place?

If they were to do a sudden raid...

No way.

Amamiya can't be involved in those kinds of things, right?

- You're right. - But isn't it weird...

that she kept going on about some strange envelope?

We don't know what's in it.

Stop spewing nonsense.

She was so anxious that she tried to break into the bar at night.

That is a place full of money.

Why would Amamiya go to that kind of bar?

Was she there to deliver that envelope?

She might be there to receive it.

- Deal? - Deal?

What kind of deal?

Drugs, usually.

- I knew it. - Drugs?

- Amamiya is... - Dealing with drugs?

Chief.

Hi, Mr. Kuryu.

- Sorry for calling you here. - It's fine.

I haven't seen you for a long time.

- How are you? - Quick, open the door.

All right.

- Sorry. - It's fine.

Hello.

Where's Amamiya?

- What? - Is Amamiya with you?

This voice...

- Who is this? - Bring Amamiya back, now!

My ears...

- Mr. Otsuka, hurry up. - Wait.

- Amamiya, did you get into trouble? - What?

Chief wants us back at the office.

Why?

Why must I get scolded?

He was yelling so loudly.

I didn't do anything. Open up, quick.

I don't care. I'm sorry.

- I'm not leaving. - It's okay, Mr. Otsuka.

- No. Open the door. - See you later.

No.

- That... - Amamiya.

Sorry, I want to get back to the investigation soon.

Do you mind cutting it short?

There was a poster on the walls...

of a random Prosecutor's Office.

On it, there was a professional baseball player.

He had a pose like this.

What?

There was a caption on it that says,

"Say no to steroids, say yes to home runs."

Chief?

Whether it's steroids or drugs, it's bad for your health.

Am I right?

I don't get what you mean.

Rather than using substances, Amamiya,

wouldn't it be better for you to hit the home run?

I'll excuse myself.

Amamiya, stop. Please quit drugs!

- What? - You're not alone.

I am responsible for this too.

I really have no idea what you're rambling about.

Or else why would you go to that kind of bar?

To Hungry Heart?

Amamiya, please tell us the truth.

That...

That's because...

I think it's better for you to admit you followed a stranger...

after he struck a conversation with you.

- You followed a stranger? - What?

Kuryu!

You simply followed a stranger?

Must've started using the drugs after the conversation...

Why did you reveal that to everyone?

The misunderstanding cannot be solved if I don't tell them that.

You don't have to say it so frankly.

Are you not going? To Hungry Heart?

I'm going!

Shouldn't it be "Let's go, please?"

Where is it?

What?

Didn't the police take everything?

You're right. They did not leave anything behind.

Can I take a look inside?

- Yes, please go ahead. - Can I?

There should be matches somewhere.

Jeez.

It should be here somewhere.

Amamiya, what are you doing there?

The bag fell down like that, then the documents flew out.

Then I said, "Stop stepping!"

"Don't kick, don't step on it!"

"I said stop stepping on it, seriously."

I'm looking for traces of Mr. Otagawa here.

Sure enough, it is troublesome when there is no staff around.

You're right.

Where did it go?

I can't believe she'd blindly follow...

Someone she just met.

I never thought that Amamiya is like that.

- Cheer up. - Shut up!

You've worked hard.

Shut up.

Followed a stranger...

Why is my luck so bad?

It hurts.

Are you done?

Let's go back.

Give me 10 more minutes.

That's enough, Amamiya.

Isn't your style to investigate things thoroughly...

in order to find out the truth?

That's correct, but...

Your attitude is totally different...

compared to when we were at the restaurants earlier.

Hey.

Fine, I'll look with you.

- Sorry. - It's all right.

No way, don't come here.

- What? - Don't ask.

Just sit and rest over there.

- I can find it myself. - Why?

I told you not to shine the flashlight at me.

Are you actually looking for something else?

Don't tell me...

The thing that you're looking for...

(Business hours, Day of operation)

(Business hours, Day of operation, Website)

Mr. Kuryu?

Where are the matches?

What? Matches?

Where are the matches?

(Business hours, Day of operation, Website)

Nice.

- Mr. Otsuka, please hold this. - Sure.

- Hold on. - Sure.

Not this.

(Business hours, Day of operation)

- Hold this too. - Sure.

- Come nearer. - Sure.

(Business hours, Day of operation, Website)

(Business hours, Day of operation)

Right, okay.

Okay.

This is not working.

Amamiya.

Should we give up?

Mr. Otagawa.

(Prosecutor: Kuryu Kohei)

When was your most recent visit to this bar?

Hungry Heart.

I don't remember.

Isn't it just recently?

I really don't remember.

Let me tell you some good news.

Last time, the matchbox from the bar looked like this.

Look at this one.

Although these two look the same...

Here.

Can you see the difference?

They've added their website link...

onto the new matchbox.

It is not on the old one.

They've replaced all the matchboxes...

on the night of February 4...

which happened to be the same night as the murder case.

What?

I think it's incredible.

How did Mr. Otagawa get...

the new matchbox design?

Didn't you travel to Kyushu on February 4?

Then once you were back, you were arrested by the police.

In that case, it doesn't make sense...

for you to own the new matchbox, am I right?

I got it as a gift...

from a friend from Tokyo who came and met me later.

Who?

I don't remember.

Please make it clear. Were you actually in Tokyo?

Don't be so mad.

I remembered.

When I came back from Kyushu,

I went to that bar right before I headed home.

Was that on...

February 8?

Yes.

Around what time was it?

It was at...

about 11pm.

What happened in that bar at that time?

Amamiya, would you please explain?

On the night of February 8,

police surrounded the whole bar due to a raid on the gambling den.

It was 11:30pm at that time.

I got dragged into it too.

It's impossible for you to drink at the bar at that time.

Yes, thank you.

That was what happened.

In that case, Mr. Otagawa,

your detention time will be extended for another 20 days.

We'll be by your side.

Please treat us well.

Thanks for your insistence on searching that bar.

You've saved the day.

It turned out well.

Why do you look so weary after doing such a great job?

Please leave me alone.

Maiko Amamiya.

Birthday, October 15, 1976.

Even the birthday is engraved.

Here. This is your reward.

This is what I was looking for at the bar.

What? You were looking for this the whole time?

I thought you were looking for evidence for the case.

Why do you want to hide this?

It's just an ordinary necklace.

I usually don't wear any jewelry.

There's nothing special.

I just bought it accidentally.

I've never been chased by anyone.

It's incredible.

I didn't have any feelings for her up until yesterday.

Then all of a sudden, I think she's cute.

All thanks to this necklace.

How about you?

It's really unbelievable.

I got a boyfriend as soon as I put this on.

- She said she got a boyfriend. - Really?

It's your lucky day.

This necklace brings out the magical power in you,

raising your love luck rapidly.

It is the Miracle Pendant Minkey.

Tonight, we offer free engravings...

for your name and birthday.

Does this make any sense to you?

Wait. It looks so similar to mine.

It's amazing, it's so similar.

Also, today only, you'll get the Good-Luck Bracelet for free.

This will bring luck to your career.

It's 12,000 yen.

Get a love luck necklace today...

and get a good luck bracelet for your work for free.

This is the best combination in the history of mankind.

What are you waiting for?

Call us now.

Please let me take this exam.

Why do you want to be a prosecutor so badly?

What do you want to do when you become a prosecutor?

It's quite obvious that you molested her,

and then fired her after you were found out.

It's because I am Kuryu's paralegal.

You should stop lying, Mr. Watanuki.
