During the middle 18th
century, a fountain was

built in Italy.

It was believed that if
you threw a coin in it.

you could come back
to that land again.

So, many tourists
threw coins in it.

Everyone, this water came
from that very fountain.

episode 2

So how is it different
from the ordinary water?

This water contains the
melted coins that were

thrown in by the tourists
for many years.

By using this handkerchief,
you can get oodles of cash.

Today, you can buy a liter of this
water for measly 10.000 yen.

That's expensive.

You can get a lot of money
by just having this.

Then why are you
here working?

I'm sacrificing myself for
the benefit of you all.

I'II buy it.

You are smart girl.

You'll have a comfortable
retirement.

Take the money
from the water.

You have to pay me first.

You're under arrest.

You shouldn't commit fraud.

You got this water from
that fountain there.

Why were you watching me?

We'll hear you out in the
interrogation room.

A handcuff is...

I'm escaping!

Ouch!

Be careful!

Watch out! You could
have dented it.

I wonder where she went.

What was that for?

What are you doing here?

Stop admiring it.

If you like slits,
you can look at mine!

Look!

That's not sexy at all.

Las night, I had a visitor.

Chagawa...

The name is Akutagawa.

Just kidding.

I work at a museum in
a village called Kanganai.

I read your books.

Please accept this from me.

Do you think it's possible
for a person to move

instantaneously from
one location to another?

That's not possible.

According to Einstein's
theory of general relativity...

There is nothing
faster than light.

I recently discovered
a fatal mistake by Einstein.

Say. a woman with breasts
bulging 100 meters forward

enters a 100 meter race,
she will reach the goal

line at the exact moment
that the race starts.

I witnessed it with my
own eyes a week ago.

A woman named "Slit"
Mikako came to our village.

"Slit" Mikako?

She claims she can create
a slit anywhere in this world.

She use that to move people
and things instantaneously.

Some villagers think she
is a reincarnation of Mikari.

Who's Mikari?

The daughter of a clan lord
that ruled our lands long ago.

The village had a historical
site that enshrined Mikari.

The articles that were found
there are all very precious.

Especially Item Number
O-D2822...

On the market, it would be
worth hundreds of millions.

"Slit" Mikako is demanding
to have that O-D2822.

That, with other items,
are tightly secured behind

locked doors at the museum.

But "Slit" Mikako can easily
make slits in the walls

to enter and exit the place
as she freely chooses.

Will you come to our village
and protect it from "Slit" Mikako?

As much as I would like
to be of help to you...

I have many autograph
sessions scheduled.

"Why don't you do your best?"

I guess you have no
choice but to go there.

Why are you wearing a VEST?

It's, "Why don't you
do your BEST?"

Have my next stage
performance to go to.

So Yamada has finally
turned to crime.

Drive away.

TRICK

Village Head, this is Dr. Ueda.

I'm Ueda.

Let me introduce you
to our members.

This is my assistant.
Kawabata.

That's the Chief of Culture
Advancement, Mishima.

And that's Tsuda Tokiko
of the Village Counsel Office.

I'm a great fan of your
"Why don't you do your best?"

Is that right?

Please wait a moment.

I'll give you this.

Why don't you do your best?

Did you take those
photos of yourself?

These are the members that
will work closely with you

to protect the museum.

Let's show our fighting spirit!

Doctor.

I don't trust scholars.

We had a bad experience
with one a year ago.

I hope you haven't all forgotten!

Dr. Ueda writes these
difficult books on physics.

"Donto Best!"

You speak with authority,
but when it's time to act,

you are all hopeless
and useless!

Let's leave.

What's with you?

After we took the
trouble to come here!

Who are you?

She's Yamada
my third assistant.

He may be big, useless...

Arrogant, self-serving...

and completely
inexperienced with women.

But we didn't come here
because we wanted to.

That's right, Village Head.

I remembered I had a friend
with the Tokyo Police.

There will be first-rate officers
arriving here very shortly.

Please wait. Please don't
let that bother you.

The police won't be able
to get to "Slit" Mikako.

If you will guard that
Item #O-D2822 for us...

I will make sure that
you are well-rewarded.

We aren't after the money.

That's right.

But depending on the
amount, we can reconsider.

Thank you!

I reserved a room at the
village's most luxurious hotel.

A suite room too!
Let me take you there.

Is this a hotel?

It may not be as nice as a
suite room in a Tokyo hotel.

Dr. Ueda is here from Tokyo.

I reserved a suite under
the village office's name.

Are you the one who came
to confront "Slit" Mikako?

It's shaking.

The villagers are all angry.

Mikako is Mikari's
reincarnation!

If you defy her,
misfortune will befall you.

Take care of them.

How frightening! You
will surely regret it.

Is this a suite room?

Too many strange guests this
week! It makes me nervous.

Is there someone else staying?

Three days ago, a man
named Misawa showed up

with a sturdy-looking safe.
I wonder what he has in it.

I told you not to enter
without my permission.

Who are they?

They will be staying
here from today.

I'm Ueda.

I'm Yamada.

Don't come inside.

If you take even a step in,
you'll get it.

Can't this room be locked?

I have something very
precious in that safe.

There are no thieves
in this village!

Oh, yes!

This came for you. Dr. Ueda.

"I'll be waiting for you at the
gym of the closed school."

It's from "SKAT" Mikako.

It's "SLIT" Mikako.

Stop pushing me.

Pleased to meet you!
I'm "Slit" Mikako!

It's in honor to have a great
scholar like you come here

to test my powers.

The items in the museum were
owned by her ancestor, Mikari.

She should, by right, have them.

Wait a minute. If you can
create a slit anywhere,

then do that and steal the
items in the museum.

It's easy to make a slit,
but it requires a lot of

energy to move the items.

Perspiring isn't
becoming of me.

How convenient!

Do you insist that
I am a fraud?

Yes, of course.

Watch this then.

Stop pushing.

There's a 500-yen coin here.

Write anything you want on
it so that I can't switch it.

I'll place the coin in this box.

Then I'll lock it.

Sensei, please hold
on the key for it.

I'll move the coin in the
box into the water tank.

I'll create a slit in the water.

Slit open!

S...l...i...t... Slit!

This slit connects the red
box to this water tank.

The coin in it will move from
the box into the water tank.

Is this the coin you marked?

That's right.

I can make slits anywhere.

Even here!

Shall I put a slit in
your forehead?

Stand back, her brains
will pop out!

Are you ready?

What are you scared of?
Its not like you.

I think I'll do it on him.

Are you ready?

Wait a minute.
Let's talk it out.

I'm a valuable person
to this country.

I'm nothing like those scums!

Ueda!

You're an interesting man.

I won't kill you right away.

You were a great
embarrassment!

You should talk! You were
scared and about to cry!

I was just...

She infuriates me.

Please go on ahead. I want
to check on something.

I don't want to lose my reward!

Doctor!

Maybe you should take
a tour around the village.

Mikari's coffin was
found here a year ago.

The villagers believed
a curse would befall on

whoever dug it up.

So they've tied all that's
happened to the curse.

They think Mikari came to life
through "Slit" Mikako's body.

Do you believe that too?

A great archaeologist named
Nishimura came from Tokyo

a year ago to excavate it.

WHAT IS THIS?

It went smoothly and he
found Mikari's mummy.

A mummy existed in Japan too!

It was supposed to be a great
archaeological discovery!

But soon after, Dr. Nishimura
disappeared with the mummy.

Was he found later?

HEY, STOP!

A few days later, he was
found dead in her coffin.

HOW AWFUL!

There was a slit on his back.

You mean he was stabbed
in the back with a knife.

The villagers think that
Mikari's mummy came to life

and killed Dr. Nishimura.

Please be careful.

The same thing could
happen to you too.

Dr. Ueda!

I was surprised when
he suddenly collapsed.

Will he be all right?

He's an useless man
with a big penis.

This is our
treasured museum.

It's the newest building
in this village.

This is where Item
O-D2822 and other

excavated treasures
are kept.

We've kept it closed ever since
Slit" Mikako showed up here.

It takes a lot of
work to just get inside.

We installed these locks after
"Slit" Mikako showed up.

Not that she can't get in
with a slit in the wall.

I don't think she can make
"skats" in these walls.

You mean "slits."

What magnificent items!

Can you tell?

Yes, of course.

There's an ancient air to it.

That's just a plain ashtray.

I knew that.

Miss Yamamoto!

My name is Yamada.

Are we lacking anything
in terms of security?

What is this room?

That door leads to the
back of the museum.

But it's never been used yet.

It's not possible to go in
and out from there.

It's heavy!

There are a dozen 10-kg
steel bars in each of them.

Why?

You're the one staying
in the suite room.

Mr. Misawa, you
shouldn't be in here.

So this is item #O-D2822.

You have a lot of nice
items in here.

Do you know him?

Of course not.

They are not for sale.

Don't say that.

They're worth a lot on
the black market.

I guess you would know
that better than me.

I'm only joking.

By the way...

I heard "Slit" Mikako
embarrassed you two.

No, it wasn't me...

She has no special power.
She is a fraud.

Do you know something
Mr. Mikawaya?

My name is MISAWA.

I'll tell you later.

Wakame (seaweed) rice.
pickled konbu (seaweed),

and stir-fried vegetables.

The food was terrible.
But the portion was filling.

Did you find out something

I found this.

Now that I'm full. I'm sleepy.

There's only one bedding.

Ask the front for another set.

"Please speak loud and
clear into the phone."

Hello? Hello!

We're in the Sweet Potato room.

Can we get another
set of bedding?

Hello? Hello!

That was fast.

Look. It's not plugged in.

I get it. By talking aloud,
you can be heard downstairs.

Are you going to sleep already?

It's truly upsetting!
That "Skat" Mikako!

It's "Slit" Mikako!

But she pulled put that
coin from the water tank.

She only pretended to place
the 500-yen coin in the box.

but was actually hiding it
in the palm of her hand.

But I heard the coin in the box.

I think she hid a small
noise box inside her sleeve.

How did the coin come
out of the water then?

That can be easily done.

She must've had a clear coin
the size of the 500-yen coin

hidden at the bottom
of the tank.

It'll seem as it there
is nothing in the water.

Then she puts the kerchief in
ana pulls out that clear coin.

Then she switches it with the
500-yen coin with the mark.

I get it. It's like the
fountain trick.

That woman selling the
water used the same trick.

The one with FULL breasts?

FLAT breasts!

The question is, how did she
make the slit in the water.

Wait a minute.

It's phenolphthalein.

When added to alkaline
water, it turns red.

She had a thin tube
in the water tank.

And that's where she put
the alkaline liquid.

Then she pretended to tap
surface of the water

to drip the phenolphthalein
into the tube.

Adding acid will bring
it back to its original color.

Mixing an alkalai with an acid will
make the water color neutral.

I get it.

Will you figure it out sooner?

She was a fraud, after all.

I knew it!

Abarenbo!

Hey!

Doctor!

Doctor!

Doctor!

Doctor.

Doctor...

You were still up, after all.

How did you come
from there to here?

With my powers to
relocate instantaneously.

I wanted to see what kind
of room you were staying in.

I went into another
person's room by mistake.

There was a heavy-duty safe in it.

Mr. Misawa's room?

He'll get mad if you go
inside without permission.

He seems like a shady man.

There was a load of cash
in his safe so I took some.

I'm just kidding.

I took it ALL.

Who knows what hell do
to you when he finds out.

That's true.

Shall I make him
disappear somewhere?

Zone!

Zone?

Excuse me.

Mr. Misawa?

Mr. Misawa?

Mr. Misawa? No, I haven't
seen him.

He's probably walking
around somewhere.

He seemed to know
"Skat" Mikako's secret.

That woman...

That woman has no
power. She's fraud.

I wonder what Mr. Mikawaya
wanted to tell me.

You shouldn't believe
what Mr. MISAWA says.

That's strange.

Is something wrong?

The historical record
book is missing.

It's an old document listing
the legends of the village.

Maybe one of the villagers
walked off with it.

I doubt it. I'm the only one
who has the key to this room.

Are you looking for this?

That's...!

It had a lot of information
on my ancestors.

I was intrigued by it.

Its just a nude-colored
line on her dress.

Oh, this?
It was a bit cool today.

You're an interesting man.

You know it's just a line,
but you can't help looking.

What do you call it?
Pavlov's dog?

Please return that!

Sure. But I'll transfer the
contents to his notebook.

Slit open!

S...l...i...t... Slit!

Transfer complete.

Open your bag and
check your notebook.

I don't believe it!

You don't need this anymore.

Wait a minute.

That was just a conjuring trick.

What you showed us wasn't
the real document book.

It's a fake book with
interchangeable pages

of written and blank papers.

You first lipped the pages so
that we could only see the

ones with characters
written on them.

Then you held the book on
its reversed side and flipped

through it so that we could
only see the blank pages.

rough it so that we could
only see the blank pages.

Cut out those
characters and put them

in Ueda's notebook
when he wasn't looking.

When did I have a chance
to get to his notebook?

Isn't that right, Dr. Ueda?

When can I have
item #O-D2822?

You can't have it.

I'll come for it then.

Exactly at 8:00 tonight.

8:00 tonight?

That should make it easier
for you to guard the museum.

Not that you can stop me.

What? 8:00 tonight?

She must be awfully confident
to designate a time.

That is why that "Donto Best"
isn't good enough!

The police detectives
are here from Tokyo.

Are they?

Thank you for coming
a long way.

I'm Village Head Mushanokoji.

I'm Yabe.

I'm Kikuchi, a Tokyo
University graduate.

So you've come in disguises!

Disguises?

I can tell.

This is my natural hair.

What're you smirking about?

You should look at my
eyes, not at my hair.

It's crooked.

Where are the security people?

I'm it.

Just one person?

We don't need many
useless men.

A small fry is a small fry!

An elite person has the value
of 362 men on the police forces

I'm impressed!

Let's get down to
planning the security,

Let's take a break first.

"Slit" Mikako declared that
she would steal the item

at 8:00 tonight.

What? We only have
eight hours to go.

Sorry for the rush. We'll
do whatever we can to help.

Nice shot!

Another hole-in-one!

The possibility of a hole-in-one
for men's pro golfers is 0.0027%

and for women's pro
golfers Is 0.0021%.

Just move aside after
you hit the ball!

I saw the golf course
sign along the way.

Keep the video going.

Are they really going
to be of help?

They're just doing that
to throw her off guard.

The police detectives
from Tokyo are sharp!

On the other hand, that
"Don Best" professor...

You're turning your
waist too much.

It's something even
a monkey can do.

If you swing with precision
it's not hard to be a pro.

Go and find the ball.

Who's that?

"Slit" Mikako.

What's that?

He looks dead.

Slit open!

S...l...i...t... Slit!

She disappeared.

Just look for the ball.

This is the museum.

This is the newest
building in the village.

That was a hard course!

Just a little over
an hour till 8:00.

If it weren't for that ball
disappearing on the 8th hole

I would've shot under 160.

We're supposed to all
gather at 7:30.

There are over ten locked
doors to get to the item.

There's a strong lock
on the last door too.

I'm sorry to say there
is a big pitfall to it.

If "SLIP" Mikako...

it's "SLIT."

What if she stole this key
and made a spare key?

What if she snuck it out and
returned it without your knowing?

Change all the locks so that
she wouldn't have a spare key!

Everyone, please gather!

There are only 20 minutes
until the designated time.

Police Detective Yabe from
Tokyo has something to say.

Yabe?

These are all precious
items to the village.

We can't let any
of them get stolen.

I'm a Tokyo
University graduate.

This is Dr. Ueda from Tokyo.

It's good to see you.

Do you know each other?

Who's there?

There's no one here.

Aren't you Yamada?

I'm no one like that.

Yes, you are Yamada!

Arrest her, Kikuchi!

We don't have time for that.

We can't let her go.

Your hair is crooked.

Let's synchronize our watches.

It's 7:47 now.

That clock is a bit fast.

My watch says 7:44.

Mine too.

Mine stopped yesterday.

Shut up.

That time should be accurate.

Yours must be broken.

It's almost 8:00.

Isn't your watch broken?

How does she plan to get
inside in this situation?

Hey, Yamada!

I'll have you arrested
immediately after this.

I don't think anything
is going to happen.

She must be turning blue now
because we switched the locks.

What was that that we
saw this afternoon?

She just disappeared
into thin air.

If she can do that, then all
this security will mean nothing.

What are you talking about?

It's exactly 8:00.

Look there!

It's "Skat!"

It's "Slit!"

Slit open!

S...l...i...t... Slit!

Didn't I see this before?

This afternoon!

4 hours 39 minutes
26 seconds ago!

Now it's 28 seconds.

Do you hear something?

Is it coming from inside?

There's someone inside.

What's going on?

This can't be true!

I'm Yamada Naoko.
a very talented magician.

The cowardly and useless
Ueda Jiro, brought me

to Kanganai village this time.

We came to confront a
woman who fraudulently

claims she can create
a slit anywhere in space

and move people and things
instantaneously through it.

Slit open!

Shall I make a slit
on your forehead?

A year ago, the villagers
found the mummy of Mikari,

who ruled the lands long ago.

Then Dr. Nishimura met
with an unnatural death.

I will come for the item.

"Slit" Mikako made Misawa,
a suspicious-looking man

who knew of her secret,
disappear.

At 8:00 p.m., when she was
due to steal the item...

"Skat!"

It's "Slit!"

Slit open!

S...I...i...t... Slit!

This looks familiar.

Do you hear something?

Is it coming from inside?

What's going on?

Is someone in there?
If there is, answer me!

Stupid.

Did she enter from the back?

There!

She must've gone in from
that door and locked it.

There are boxes of steel
stocked high against this door.

How did she get here
so quickly from there?

Let's go in from the front.

Stand guard out here.

It's open.

I'm sorry!

This isn't it!

I'm sorry!

It's "Skat!"

It's "Slit!"

I've been waiting for you.

I'm taking Item #O-D2822.

See you later.

Stop!

Will you check the windows?

Did "Slit" pass by here?

No.

Are you sure? She might
have been disguised.

Absolutely no one passed!

You!

Arrest her!

Where did you hide
the item you stole?

I moved it somewhere
where you can't get it.

That's enough!

Will you check what's
been stolen?

It's heavy.

She couldn't have
used this route.

We can't find the
exit that she used.

How did she enter and exit?

It's impossible for her
to enter from the front.

I've been holding the
one and only key.

Does that mean she put
a slit in the wall?

It's impossible to put
a "skat" in these walls.

It's "slit."

Are you missing anything?

Nothing has been stolen?

There is NOTHING missing.

What did you come in for?

What happy-go-lucky people.

You should check better.

What?

If you can't figure out
what's been stolen.

then I'll be leaving.

Wait a minute.

Haven't I met you before?

I must've been when you
were go find this afternoon.

No, even before that.

You look very familiar.

TRICK

This is the most luxurious
hotel in this village.

In other words, that woman
managed to get inside, but

we got in so quickly that
she didn't have the chance

to steal anything and
had to run away.

You live up to your name!

Are they going to stay
here too?

It's shaking.

Hello?

Is it working?

Mr. Yabe!

What is it?

"Please speak loud and
clear into the telephone."

In hotels, they usually
have what you call...

Adult pay-per-view videos.

The ones with men and
women starring in them.

Stop reacting to it.

We'd like to get some.

That was fast.

The service is faster than
the hotel I go to regularly.

This is a luxury hotel,
all right.

What was that we saw
this afternoon?

The corpse she was carrying...

He hall dark sunglasses and
a white scarf around his neck.

That description...

It must be Misawa!

Yabe!

What is it?

What did you see this
afternoon?

PLEASE come with me.

It bothered me so I went
in to check again.

Then I figured it out.

Look here.

How can that be!

What's wrong with it?

Compare it to the
reference material.

Note the number of
stands of breast hair.

This one has ten.

And this one has 14.

Which means..

It's fake!

It's real.

It's fake!

Can't you see that
it's naturally growing?

I'm talking about this.

She switched It with
a fake one.

Shouldn't you check better?

That is...

So you finally figured it out.

This is the authentic one.

Mr. Misawa, who was in this
room, hasn't returned yet.

if I didn't steal it...

That man, Misawa, would have.

Ten strands of breast hair!

This is the authentic one!

Please return it.

I protected it for you.

Will you show more gratitude?

What did you do with Misawa?

I made him disappear.

He was a villain.

He brought the fake one
to this village in this safe.

He came here to switch the
fake one with the real one.

So you did it before him?

It's no fun to just steal it.

Please return it.

You'll let it get stolen!

I'll keep it safe in here.

Slit open!

S...l...i...t...

It opened!

It's a combination lock safe!

By matching all the
combinations.

The lock will be released
and the door will open.

This type of lock was used
in the latter 19th century.

Is that real?

Ten strands of breast hair!

This is the undoubtedly
the real one.

How did she get it in there?

I saw her transfer it
into the safe!

Trouble!

Look there!

There's a slit in the rock!

What's that?

A hand.

How did he get caught
in that position?

Will you pull him out?

It's not possible.

That rock cannot be
easily moved.

It's an authentic rock.

Did you get him out?

Good work. Move aside.

He's...!

Who is he?

Mr. Misawa.

Who's that?

The body that "Slit" Mikako
was carrying with her.

It's Mikari!

There is a legend that Mikari
did the same thing as that.

It's written in this.

There's a story that Mikari
punished a viper that

appeared in the village.

Mikari grabbed the viper
by its neck and stood by

Rentaro Falls. The next moment
the snake disappeared and

was confined to the rocks
by the river's mouth.

Doesn't it resemble the
way Misawa died?

Is that "Rent-a-roll" Falls
still in existence?

We believe this is the falls
in the legend.

Mikari grabbed the viper by
its neck and stood here.

Wait a minute.

I might've figured out the
truth behind that legend.

Go to the shrine where
Misawa was found.

When you get there, shout.

Run!

This is quite a distance.

Watch carefully as
to what happens!

Ueda!

Didn't a handkerchief come
flowing down?

I want to verify it's mine.

Spread it out and read aloud
what's written on it.

"Purple rain"?

"I, Yamada Naoko, am
troubled about my flat breasts."

What's wrong? I can't
hear you! Say it aloud!

"I, Ueda Jiro, am big but weak."

That hurts!

Just as I thought. It came
flowing down to here.

This is the truth behind
the legend.

The fails basin is connected
to the rocks here...

by an underground waterway.

When it rains and the
water level is high...

The water overflows from
here and accumulates there.

Mikari used that to make the
snakes and things disappear

from one place to another.

Then "Skat" Mikako
used the same trick?

Will you stop that already?

She pushed Misawa down
that falls so he'd end up here.

Most likely.

There you are.

The Village Head wants
a report immediately.

By the way, where are
those fools?

Who are you referring
to as fools?

Is this where you spotted
"Skat" Mikako?

Do you see that well
straight ahead?

I saw her in front of it
with the body.

Then she made a slit into space.

Did you just fall back
and tremble in fear.

Don't be ridiculous.

We just continued on
with our golf.

as if nothing had happened.

Exactly.

Fools, why didn't you think
of solving the mystery?

What can we do if they had
disappeared out of sight?

Besides, thanks to "Slip"
Mikako informing us of the

time she will strike...

It's, "Skat."

Anyway, we didn't have
very much time left.

That's not the point here.

You have to arrest the criminal
and punish her accordingly.

Exactly, Yamada Naoko,
you're under arrest for fraud.

Something seems
different from that time.

What do you mean?

That well seems closer
to us than that time.

Give me the key.

That's right, I had
videotaped it then.

Give me the key.

You should've shown
that to me first.

See? Doesn't the well
appear farther?

it's on the opposite side.

You recorded over mine!

You must be mistaken.
It couldn't have moved.

If the position of the
pillar is different..

Then you must've seen it
from a different direction.

I'm sure it was...

where Mr. Yabe had
the OB on hole 13.

Don't mention that.

The pillar is on the same
side as in the video

if you stand on the opposite side.

This is the angle that
was videotaped.

It's the well seen from
this direction.

What are you saying?

We were looking at it
from that side.

Look. There was
something right here.

What was there?

A flimsy mirror made of
silver paper was set up here.

You fools were looking
this way from there.

From there, you could see
the reflection of the well.

So it seemed as if it was
behind "Skat" Mikako.

By cutting a slit in the
silver paper mirror and

hiding behind it, it would
appear as if she disappeared

into space. And this
here, is the proof of it.

Why would she go through
all that trouble?

She heard that there were
first-rate detectives coming

from Tokyo, so she went out
of her way to impress you.

But you two continued on
with your golfing, as if

nothing had happened.

That must've corneas
a big insult to her.

I explained to the Village
Head that Mikako might've

used a sleeping bag with the
same design as the scenery

to hide in...

Shut up! That trick has
already been explained.

The question left it, how
did she enter here?

I came up with another
explanation for it.

Perhaps she had a huge
curtain scenery put up.

Then she cut a slit into it
and slipped right inside

to fool Yabe and the others.
What a brilliant method.

Will you listen till the end?

He should make sure
that it's locked.

I checked all the windows
at that time.

I checked all the windows
at that time.

I don't see any exits.

Look there.

It�s a gap.

A gap?

I want you to check on
something for me.

Will you fax the information to
the village office right away?

Detective Yabe!

What?

You found the mummy?

The #0-D2822 lacks force.

It's only worth a few
hundred million yen.

Mikari's mummy is worth
ten times of that.

She's a despicable woman.

So where is the mummy?

I can't tell you that.

How in the world did
you find it?

I went in to all your
rooms while you were asleep.

You should know that you
can't keep me out with a lock.

Someone had disgusting
magazines.

Don't you take it off
when you go to sleep?

Take what off?

You have bad sleeping habits.

Stop talking aloud in your
sleep, Poor Dr. Ueda.

I completely agree.

You don't have the
powers that you claim.

If you do, produce the
mummy before us now.

I want to have another
challenge with Dr. Ueda.

Confine me in any
place that you want.

I'll sneak out of there
and bring Mikari's mummy.

The person who's been hiding
it will of course be punished.

Are you saying one of the
villagers is hiding it?

That's right.

Do you take the challenge?

Of course.

I'll move the mummy
by tomorrow morning.

You don't learn, do you?

It's useless to lock it.

Stop acting so tough.

Well stand on guard
till tomorrow morning.

The villagers think that
Dr. Nishimura was

killed by Mikari's
mummy a year ago.

The mummy has been
missing since that time.

Maybe "Skat" Mikako
is right.

It's "Slit" Mikako.

Burn!

Detective!

A fax came in from the
Tokyo Metropolitan Police.

I figured out her trick!

Did anything happen?

No one came out
from the shed.

I've been on guard
all night long.

I'm coming in.

Police Detective...

You ate it all?

I moved the mummy
as I promised.

It was very heavy though.

Don't lie! You didn't to
out at all last night!

We'll soon know who
you really are.

It showed up.

What showed up?

The mummy.

It's this way.

Excuse me...

This morning. I noticed
that the door was open.

Then I saw the mummy inside.

Stay back!

Look there!

Kawabata!

I punished him.

He was hiding the mummy.

How dare he try to keep
the fortune to himself!

How did you manage
to leave the shed?

I made a slit in the wall.

My power is real.

What's so funny?

You can't fool me!

I've solved the mystery!

Kikuchi, your life is...

This fax was addressed to me!

I get it now.

The culprit is amongst us!

And that culprit is...
YOU. "Slit" Mikako!

She's already admitted to it.

I know what your trick is.

I've had a feeling that
I met her somewhere.

And I finally know who she is.

This news article from
18 years ago explains it.

You'll all be shocked.

"Slit" Mikako isn't her
real name.

What?

Of course it isn't.

It would've been
shocking if it was.

You were a short-distance
runner on the track team.

You could run a hundred
meters in 11.3 seconds.

You were the hope of Japan.

Isn't this you in the article?

I guess I do look like her.

In other words, the trick
behind your power...

...is that you are
a fast runner.

Excuse me...

When we were guarding
the museum from her...

From the time that she
disappeared from far away...

To the time we heard
the noise inside...

Was only five or six seconds.

From there to the entrance
of the museum...

is about 73 meters.

Wait a minute. Seventy-three
meters in five seconds means

6.849315 seconds for
a hundred meters.

That would far beat
the worlds record.

I used to train Carl
Lewis in running.

I'm the one who developed
his running form.

So you went beyond your
limits for the money.

You know that's not possible.

You're the one who said
she could run fast.

This is all too ridiculous.

I'm going now.

Wait! I figured it all out.

I know why you claimed
to have such a power.

I know why you're
so set on "Skat."

It�s "Slit."

I've slit-figured it out!

I've heard enough!

How do you explain
I entered the museum.

Switched the item and
snuck back out?

I won't accept any nonsense
like the detective's!

Please come with me.

I checked this place
again after that.

Will you look at that gap?

It's big enough for
a finger to fit in.

It may be hard to move all
these boxes in a short time.

But it doesn't take long
to just pull one out.

You were waiting for us
in the museum.

When we rushed in, after
hearing a sound inside.

you showed yourself before
us then went into hiding again.

That day, this box was
probably left empty.

No one would think of verifying
the weight of a box at the bottom.

After you shocked us, you
took out this box, opened

the back door and went out.

A person on the inside then
secretly locked it and put

the box to its original place.

Are you saying that she
has an accomplice?

Wait a minute. How did I
enter the locked museum?

It's simple. You entered
from the front with the keys.

You first appeared there
then disappeared.

You must've hidden behind
a black curtain you had set up.

Right after that, we
noises from inside.

That was probably from a
tape recorder you had set

to play on a timer.

When we heard the noise, we
assumed someone was inside.

So we impulsively
ran over to the back.

Then you dashed to the
front entrance and opened

the locks with the
keys that you had.

That's impossible. Why would
l have the keys to the place?

Mr. Akutagawa was holding
on to the single set of keys.

She's right.

I was told to replace all
the locks in the museum,

so she didn't have time
to make any spare keys.

Exactly!

Whose side are you on?

The set of keys that you had
that time were the old ones.

Just by glancing at them,
you can't tell the difference

from the old ones
and the new ones.

After you opened the lock
at the front entrance,

you left it hanging there.

The lock will appear
to be securely locked.

Mr. Akutagawa was just
pretending to unlock them.

All those locks gave you
the time to get inside.

This isn't it!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!

After the dash, you needed
time to catch your breath.

I've been waiting for you.

I know why you insisted on
wearing a dress with slits.

That long skirt appears
to be difficult to move in,

but it actually makes it
easier to dash in.

And you could distract
the foolish men.

Wait a minute! You make it
sound as if I'm her accomplice!

Yes, that's right.

On the night that we
guarded the museum...

You made all of us adjust our
time to the clock in the museum.

That clock is accurate.

Reflecting back on it, it

I think you did that because
the tape recorder inside was

set to go off at 8:00 p.m.,
per the museum clock's time.

And "Skat" Mikako was sup
to show up according to that.

When we heard a noise
coming from inside, you...

Is it the back door?

That's how you cleverly moved
everyone to the back entrance.

That's enough! Why would
I cooperate with her?

Wasn't it an imitation
that was on exhibit?

Weren't you selling the
items on the black market?

To Mr. Misawa.

It'll bring in a lot of money
on the black market.

I guess you would know best.

In return or keeping your
secret, he wanted you

to sell him more items.

He had the authentic item in
his safe to blackmail you with.

The item that you showed us
was a well-made imitation.

Because you said it was
the authentic one...

We all assumed it was.

You claimed you would
move it into the safe, but

you just covered it with a
cloth and dropped in the back.

That's a lie! I don't
know this woman!

You used Akutagawa to
prove your power is real.

For what purpose.

I couldn't figured out
for the longest time.

But now I know why.

"Skat" Mikako isn't your
real name!

What?

That's what I said!

Your real name is...

Nishimura Mikako!

Are you by chance
Dr. Nishimura's daughter?

That's right.

I've done everything
that I wanted to do.

So I'll confess the truth.

My father showed up here
a year ago for an excavation.

He found Mikari's mummy
and was killed.

Someone in this village
killed my father

and stole the mummy.

He wanted to keep the
mummy all to himself.

My father suspected there
was someone scheming that.

In a letter to me, he wrote
hat if he should die, the killer

is someone who was
involved in the excavation.

Then, what he feared, happened.

I told the police that
it was a murder case.

But as there was no proof...

The case was closed as
a simple accident.

I vowed to get revenge
on my fathers murderer.

But you didn't know who
the murderer was.

or where the mummy was hidden.

That's right.

So I set it up so that the
culprit would die on his own.

Die on his own?

There was an ancient
poison on the mummy.

When light strikes it, the
poison releases its effect.

Stay back!

The legend that death will
come to those who dig up

the remains comes from that.

You didn't know who the
culprit was...

But you wanted him to believe
you had the power to move from

one place to another in an instant.

Then you declared before
everyone that you found the

mummy and the culprit
would be punished.

The culprit tried to relocate
the mummy, and ended up dying

from the poison released from it.

Are you saying that
Kawabata was the culprit?

That's how you got your
revenge on the unknown culprit.

That's the gist of it.

I've done all that I wanted to.

So I have no attachments here.

Bye.

Bye?

This is my last disappearing act.

Where did she disappear to?

There!

She's fast!

Don't be impressed!
Go after her, fools!

Stop!

Run, fools!

Mr. Akutagawa, where are
you going?

I'm not her accomplice.
What proof do you have?

Are you still saying that?

We have the proof.

The other night. I saw "Slit"
Mikako standing afar

under the moonlight. When I
turned around, she was there.

So you were still up.

I thought long and
hard about it.

She wasn't standing
under that moonlight.

It was you.

That's ridiculous!

Mikako and I have different
builds. How could you

mistake us, even if she
had her back turned?

Weren't you wearing this?

I found this in your lab.

You're lying. Besides,
the lab is...

We cut a slit into it and
went inside.

It's his fault!

Misawa approached me
with a juicy deal!

Akutagawa, you fool!

Who would've thought that
he would fall for this...

He didn't see through this
fake that we made.

Where's "Skat" Mikako?

I left her to Kikuchi. He
used to be on the track team.

I remembered I had
to arrest someone else.

The Village Head and Mishima
took Mr. Akutagawa away...

to the local police.

I came back for you.

You handcuffed yourself.

Doctor, watch out.

What re you doing?

You're not very smart.
