Episode 2

It's hot. They say it is above 30 degrees (Celsius).

It is already late September though.

I understand. The deadline is today, isn't it? Calendar: Weekly Peach deadline

I'm sorry.

My kid's got a fever, -

so I took him to a hospital.

I will send a draft by the end of today.

Yes.

I'm truly sorry.

Yes.

It's hot.

Why did it break at a time like this?

Dad.

Did I wake you up?

Sorry.

Auntie is coming.

Eh?

Auntie Takeda...

She is coming.

Auntie Takeda?

Are you half asleep?

Takeda-san!

What?

How is Ta-kun's cold?

Eh? Well...

Tadahiro.

Takeda-san says she'll make egg gukbap (Korean egg rice soup).

Poor you, getting summer fatigue at this time.

You were drawing pictures? You're very good at drawing.

What did you draw?

A Car. - Car? Eh...

Hey, can't you draw better?

What are you saying? He has fever.

I'm going to make you gukbap (Korean rice soup), okay?

I saw it.

You saw it?

While I was sleeping...

My body became light...

I looked through the window -

and saw a red car on the other side of the river.

Ta-kun, that can't be right.

That's impossible, Tadahiro.

I'm going to make something nice for you, okay? Kamimura-san, you can do your work.

Hm...? Should I help you? - Then, cut up an apple.

Four weeks later

You came again?

Is Yukawa sensei here?

I came across some strange things during a murder investigation...

Please ask another professor.

It's not like I come here because I want to...

Yukawa sensei is not here.

You're lying.

Lying? - Then where is he?

Good game. - Thank you very much.

Were you watching?

Y-y-y-y-you're good at squash.

A squash court is composed of five surfaces. While playing, -

we're calculating a ball's direction when it bounces off the walls in a 3D space.

We look at the opponents' racket angle at the precise moment they hit balls, -

and immediately... - Talking about theories again?

If you came to ask for help with an investigation, I refuse.

As for the laser incident, it just happened that I was interested in it.

Don't think that I'll be...

What do you think this is?

This gray thing is the bank of a river.

The red thing is a car.

I'm not interested.

This is a sketch of an image an 8-year-old boy saw from a window in his house.

If he's eight, tell him to try to draw better.

Yukawa sensei, another game?

Sure.

Actually, this may turn out to be -

evidence supporting the suspect's alibi!

But I can't simply trust this drawing, -

because the boy is claiming -

he saw this when his soul separated from his body.

In other words, -

an out-of-body experience?

Astral Projection

The scene of the crime is a condo in West Kamata, 3rd district.

The murder victim is...

...is the resident of that room, Nagatsuka Taeko-san, 28 years old.

She had an office job at a trading company.

She's already decomposed quite a bit, but -

cause of the death is suffocation from strangulation.

Strangulation?

It means she was choked to death. Keep up with your studies.

Go outside if you feel like throwing up.

Estimated date of her death is September 22nd, four weeks ago.

Do you remember? The day it was over 30 degrees even though it was September.

Some time between 1pm and 4pm on that day.

We narrowed it down to one suspect based on these facts.

We found this in Nagatsuka Taeko-san's room.

(A business card that has a message "Coming back on Sep. 22.")

Did you visit her on September 22nd, -

Kurita-san?

This is indeed my memo, but -

I actually ended up visiting her on the 21st.

What do you mean?

I was contacted by Nagatsuka-san.

She told me to come the day before.

Here.

Then, where were you between 1pm and 4pm on the 22nd?

Well, actually... I was hungover from drinking too much the night before, so...

I parked the car here and slept.

You have a cool car, Kurita-san.

Don't tell me you're suspecting me.

Is there anyone that can testify you were here?

What? Well...

In the end, Kurita couldn't prove his alibi.

You lost your temper -

and killed her because she rejected you, right?

No! It wasn't me!

That's what -

all criminals say.

Right?

A moment please.

And then the photo of that drawing came in the mail.

Did you draw this, Tadahiro-kun?

Yes, I drew it.

On September 22nd?

I drew it on September 22nd.

That's right.

You saw the red car on the other side of the river -

from your room over there, right?

Yeah.

Can I open the window? - Sure, go ahead.

Where's the river?

He had a fever and was sleeping here.

Then, his consciousness left his body -

and floated in the air! That's what he said.

Floated?

Yes. My body started to float suddenly while I was asleep.

Then I flew out of the window, -

higher than the factory.

Then, I saw the red car.

Of course, at that time I didn't believe it.

However, I think it was the day before yesterday, -

I heard the police were questioning on the other side of the river.

That they were investigating -

whether a red car was parked there on the 22nd.

My son's story was true! His soul left his body!

That summarizes this case.

Are you sleeping?

You didn't listen at all?

You've got to be kidding me! - Method of killing, suspects...

I don't care about any of that.

I'm interested in...

Only about the out-of-body experience, right? I know.

You knew but you still kept talking about it?

Okay, okay, I'll stop talking about it.

I couldn't get any sleep.

Sorry. I'm really sorry.

My body started to float suddenly while I was sleeping.

Then I flew out of the window, -

flew higher than the factory, and I saw a red car...

This person is bad with children.

I'm not bad with them. I just don't like them.

Sorry.

How long were you floating?

He doesn't remember time, do you? Please have some tea.

Oh, right, that time, -

Takeda-san, who owns a BBQ restaurant nearby, came here.

Right before that, he predicted -

that Auntie Takeda would come here.

Predicted?

Yes.

It might be that he has had ESP from the beginning.

ESP?

Out-of-body experience? That sounds ominous.

But, he is telling everyone about it with excitement.

He's insane!

Do you often go to Kamimura-san's house?

Ah... I just bring them food.

It's hard for a single father to raise a child, you know.

Takeda-san. - So, I do that because -

Tadahiro-kun is a really good kid. That's why.

What's Ichibo?

What?

Come again?

Ichibo.

Ah, that's cow's lean meat from its hind part.

Ah, hind part.

I'm not a cow!

You don't believe at all in those things like -

ESP or out of body experiences?

I don't believe in them.

By the way, they said that the child predicted Takeda-san would come, -

but I think he just heard her footsteps or something.

I don't think such a nice child like him would lie like that.

You believe in the occult and totally believe whatever a child says.

How can you do your job as a detective?

You must have never believed in Santa since kindergarten.

"Flying reindeer pulling a sleigh?"

"That's impossible, Principal."

No way, did I nail it?

Anyway, I do not believe that a soul flew out of a body.

Then, how did Tadahiro-kun see the red car?

I don't know.

How did he draw that picture?

I have absolutely no clue.

Really interesting.

Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Criminal Minds Team in @ viki

Why was the car seen from this apartment?

Yukawa sensei. Did you read my research paper?

I'm really confident in it this time.

There are huge gates in the factory, here and here.

I would like a recommendation letter for that.

It's easy! The gates were open.

Maybe it became like an tunnel, so he could see the other side of the river through it.

However, the factory manager has clearly negated it.

22nd right? Both of them were closed.

We open the front one frequently, -

but we open the one in the back only when we bring in -

special heavy equipments.

Moreover, look at this picture closely.

The car is located too low.

Right!

Even if the both gates are open, to see the car from the apartment -

is impossible.

Exactly.

Then, can we think of any other explanations?

It must be that... A clairvoyant... Have you heard of this?

In some village, some child -

started talking about a village several hundred kilometres away.

It was said, that it all was true.

Why did you kill her?

I told you so many times that I was sleeping in the car, didn't I?

But no one can testify to it, right?

It's because you are the perpetrator!

I am saying that's not the case!

Are you ignoring Tadahiro-kun's testimony?

How can you expect a detective to take that nonsense seriously?

Saw a car while he was having an out-of-body experience?

Kamimura-san, does that mean...

The police did not believe you?

That's right.

Not only they didn't believe us but they disregarded my son's story.

If the suspect is innocent, then it would be terrible.

Why?

Has Tadahiro-kun had an out of body experience before?

This was the first, -

but he has made predictions before.

When I was asleep, suddenly my body felt light and I started to float.

Then I flew out the window -

and floated above the factory, -

and then I saw the red car.

Did you see the red car clearly?

Yes. I saw it.

I see. Thank you.

And now, Tsukikage Taizan-san, an paranormal phenomena researcher -

who is learned in out of body experiences...

Are you ignoring the witness Tadahiro? The suspect didn't confess the crime, right?

Did you terminate the investigation?

Please tell us the current status of the investigation!

We will continue with the inves...

Stop talking!

Did you terminate the investigation? Tell us!

I don't think Kurita committed the crime.

It's detective's intuition.

I mentioned this before, but...

You're going to say my basis is illogical, right?

Wrong, I don't care about the criminal.

My interest is in how that child saw the car. That's all.

Can I have some coffee?

Being a scientist seems so easy. All you do is think.

You love it, don't you?

The ability to think is the greatest pleasure humanity has.

More fun than eating a delicious meal?

Yes, it is.

Better that drinking or having fun?

Out of question!

You're really strange.

Usually drinking, saying foolish things and dating are considered more fun.

But you prefer to think, huh.

Wait a moment.

I did not say that thinking is better than dating.

Do you like women?

That question is like -

asking a cat if it likes catnip.

No way, are you a lecher?

Despite always making a serious face?

Disgusting!

Then, let me ask, is there a person who has makes a lewd face for a whole day?

Wake up with a lewd face, brush teeth with a lewd face, start work with a lewd face -

and hands out his business card with a lewd face, does such a person really exist?

I did not say anything like that...

Just because I have a serious face, I'm a lecher?

Logic again... - Such simplistic thinking -

makes you think that boy is a nice child.

Everything has a side that doesn't show.

That could be the most important. - What?

I will go see the father and his child again.

Eh?

So good!

Here's harami (cow's diaphragm).

It's top grade, Tadahiro! Eat as much as you want today.

Okay!

How much money did you make from the TV appearance?

It's not about the money.

But you're making him miss school again tomorrow for another TV appearance, right?

They're the ones begging us to come on their show. Right, Tadahiro?

Yeah!

Welcome.

Good afternoon.

We would like to talk with Kamimura-san.

Go ahead.

Thanks for coming here. Today we were too busy to have a meal.

Hello, Tadahiro-kun.

Good afternoon.

The police still don't believe us?

Personally I want to believe you, -

but some of us reacted repulsively when they heard you talk on TV...

What?

We can do whatever we want.

Hello.

JBC TV?

Hold on a minute. It's a little noisy here.

It's about appearing on your show, right?

It's overcooked.

If meat is overcooked, its tasty component -

and nutrient, glutamic acid, gets destroyed.

The sauce will be burnt and charred. Meat tastes best when it's moderately grilled.

I was not a stickler for logic when I was a child, -

I used to believe in ghosts, a yeti, Loch Ness Monster, -

and of course ESP.

I was especially into spoon bending (by an ESP boy).

I tried to do it many times, emulating the ESP boy on TV shows.

But, one day, the boy confessed -

that he faked it.

Not just me, but all the children in Japan were disappointed.

It's nice to talk about mysterious things. It's like a fantasy.

But if you mix a lie in it, it's a sin.

Did you really fly in the sky?

I don't mind it at all. Yeah.

My son is really happy to have people listen to his story.

Wait, was your out-of-body experience a lie?

Did you also lie that you saw the car?

I really saw the car!

There's such a big building in front..

Stop.

I'm taking my son.

Okay, see you the day after tomorrow at 18:00.

Yes, thank you.

Hey, Tadahiro, we'll be on TV again the day after tomorrow.

What happened?

Dad, quickly, let's eat!

Didn't you want to talk?

Excuse me.

They just came to complain?

Can I eat some more?

You need to cook it a little more. That's raw.

Another beer please! - It is ready to eat.

Eat this one instead, it's already cooked.

Fine.

Everything was a fake.

Not everything. It's true that he saw a car.

Do you believe that child?

If not, then I can't explain the existence of that picture.

If out-of-body experience is a lie, then Kurita -

is the perpetrator. Is that how you think?

You're doing it over from square one?

I am re-investigating this case.

Did Galileo sensei give you the cold shoulder?

No.

There are things for Yukawa sensei to do -

and also things for me to do.

Will you comment on the boy who had out-of-body experience?

I have a job to do, so that's all.

We just want your comments on the boy.

Go back, please!

Go back!

They didn't have to get all angry!

I did it again.

Jonouchi-san.

The victim's body was quite decomposed, wasn't it?

Yes.

How did you know the cause of death when there weren't any marks on her neck?

Her neck cartilage was broken.

The suspect straddled her and strangled her, pushing her down with his weight.

I really saw the car!

The day when it hit over 30 degrees Celsius even though it was September.

Go back!

Straddled?

What's the matter?

Kurita is a really small man.

So?

The victim is an ex judo champion.

Is it possible for that weak-looking Kurita -

to straddle such a person?

It would be hard, right?

Yukawa sensei, could it be...

I think I might be able to solve the mystery.

Eh?

Before that, there is something I want you to check.

What's going on?

We have a TV show to go to.

Why am I even here?

Let's start.

Well, why did he see a car that was impossible for him to see?

I will prove that.

Prove?

First, consider this to be the car.

And this is Kamimura-san's apartment.

And this tank between is the factory.

On September 22nd when he saw the car, -

let's assume that both of the big gates were open.

Eh? - Even with the gates open, -

you can't see the car from our house.

That's right.

The light travels in a straight line and doesn't hit Kamimura-san's apartment.

Consequently, he wouldn't be able to see the car.

Right.

Then, please look at this. Please come.

What now?

In the same way, this is the car, -

the apartment building and the factory.

Here I go.

What?

Oh, my... It's bent.

How?

In this tank there's water and sugar mixture.

It's set up so the top is denser and becomes less dense toward the bottom.

The light bends when it travels through the liquid of different density.

The bigger the gap between the density, the more the light is bent.

Therefore, the ray of light is drastically bent.

I did not know.

But a natural phenomenon based on this principle -

must be well known.

Natural phenomenon?

A mirage?

Yes.

Something similar must have happened in that glass factory.

As a result, the car that could not have been seen originally -

looked as if it were floating.

That's how it looked -

to him.

In other words, he did not see the car while floating out of his body.

What are you talking about? Don't just say whatever comes to your mind!

I will show you the evidence.

This was thrown away in that factory.

This section. This wasn't cut or -

ripped. It was cracked.

Cracked?

That's right. It froze.

I don't know what he is talking about. Let's go Tadahiro. It's a waste of time.

Wait a minute! That call might demonstrate my theory.

Eh?

Yes.

There sure was an accident at this factory on Sep. 22.

Eh?

When I questioned the factory manager, -

he confessed that a tank broke and liquid nitrogen -

got leaked which was used to cool machines.

He was afraid that it would be a big problem, so he covered it up.

But how did you know that there was an accident here?

Thank you very much.

Who was that?

There was an accident at the factory and liquid nitrogen leaked.

On September 22.

Liquid nitrogen?

A liquid nitrogen is more than 200 degrees below zero.

If that leaks...

The floor in the factory would be drastically frozen.

Rain boots on the floor would be frozen.

Close that!

Hurry up and open the door!

Hurry and open the door!

Factory workers must have panicked.

For ventilation, they would have opened the both gates.

Thus, the air from outside -

came into the factory, all at once.

The hot air in summer which was higher than 30 Celcius.

At that moment, cold nitrogen was on the floor, and -

above that was hot air.

Like that, there were two layers of gas that had quite a gap in density.

It means, it was the exact same condition for a mirage to occur.

My theory has been proven now.

No, that's just a far-fetched explanation.

Tadahiro's soul came out of his body.

You have to leave it that way -

to earn money, right?

We have been cooperating with police's investigation, haven't we?

Kamimura-san. The out-of-body experience -

can't prove the suspect's alibi.

However, with Yukawa sensei's theory, -

that person will be saved.

Who cares about the reason? It was true that he saw the car.

It won't work that way. I won't be convinced -

to accept such a groundless theory -

as out-of-body experience to explain the incomprehensible phenomenon.

It is a scientist's job to thoroughly investigate mysteries.

It was you who came up with the idea of out-of-body -

experience after seeing your son's drawing, correct?

There is no way he has that kind of memory.

"But, if that makes money and makes my dad happy,"

"I will go along with the lie." That was what he thought.

No, it's not.

I... I... I really flew in the sky.

While sleeping, -

My body suddenly floated. - Ma-kun.

And then, I jumped off the window...

Enough Tadahiro.

I went higher than the factory and...

Enough!

I saw a red car.

Enough, that's enough.

Let's go home.

You don't have to go after them?

You should go after them... for that boy.

Okay.

Tadahiro-kun was a good boy after all.

What's wrong?

I broke out in hives, because the boy and I stared at each other.

Can I go home with you?

Tadahiro... I'm sorry.

It's bright.

I knew from the beginning that it wasn't you.

Good luck.

Agh! I have to start over with the investigation.

Good work. - Yea, I will need some encouragement.

Yuge-san!

I found out that the victim had a secret lover.

A secret lover? What about his alibi on 22nd?

There is no alibi. He weighs 92kg and does mixed martial arts.

There is no doubt. He must be the perpetrator.

Despite the fact that he had a wife and children, -

he promised the victim to marry her.

But, the victim nagged him when she found out he didn't intend to divorce his wife.

He argued with her and ended up strangling...

To me, it doesn't matter.

You came here just to say that?

And one more thing.

Takeda-san visits the Kamimura-san's to cook for them.

That has been going on from before.

Even on days when Tadahiro-kun goes to school.

You don't care about this either?

I don't care.

I see.

If you used to believe in a yeti and Loch Ness Monster, -

is it possible that you -

believed in Santa Claus as well?

That question is very irrational.

The existence of yeti or Loch Ness Monster is a biological issue -

that should be discussed in terms of evolutionary theory.

However, Santa Clause is... - Okay, that is enough.

I'm an idiot for asking.

He is such a sophist.

She is really clueless.
