Original subtitles

You used a wire to strangle the other person, right?

Yes.

Is it really a wire?

Yes.

It's the string of a kite, right?

Yes.

It's a wrap.

Thanks for collaborating.

You can see that the scan is different...

compared to a regular lie detector.

The subject only needed to answer yes or no.

And the machine will be able to detect...

how much the subject remembers about the crime.

There was a big wave effect in the last experience.

It's because I gave him information about the kite string in advance.

- I have a question. - Yes.

Regarding the subject's personality, will it affect the test result?

Yes.

If the subject is delusional or a pathological liar,

it is hard to reveal the biological signs.

- Pathological liar? - Yes.

No matter what I asked you, please say no.

No.

We have not started yet.

No.

- Let's start then. - No.

Have you committed a crime?

No.

That's great. He always does illegal searches.

He really is a born liar.

How about indirect involvement?

No.

Is that true?

No.

It moves!

(Detective Yugami: Episode 9)

The total is 1,780 yen.

I always thought this house is very grand.

Keep the change.

You're always so nice.

Please take good care of your belongings.

Thanks.

Good morning.

The weather is getting cold. Should we eat claypot udon today?

Doctor?

This again?

Doctor, you are not a kid anymore.

Could you please fold your own clothes?

How many times do I have to say it?

Is udon good for lunch?

Doctor?

Is he asleep?

Doctor.

The deceased is Yabuta Tsuneo. He was 72 years old.

The Yabuta family members were all doctors for generations.

He was working in a university hospital...

inside the district before his retirement.

So he was rich?

It doesn't look like he was robbed.

The safe is secured.

He seems to be an art collector.

But the art has not been touched.

We found this in the pocket of his coat.

The grudge will finally be dealt with.

The body was put into the bathtub that was full of hot water.

There were bruises and injuries everywhere.

The murderer must really hate him.

We must investigate his social background.

But the first person who found him, the nanny, said...

The doctor's friends?

Yes.

I have never met any of his friends.

What about his family?

I heard he divorced his wife a long time ago.

His son is dead.

The deceased seems to have no one in his life.

Hey.

Where is Yugami?

What are you doing?

Hundred years of non-stop

A magnificent clock

Please get back to the investigation.

No.

That is the clock the old man bought the morning he was born.

Quite stylish, isn't it?

Why would he hang a cheap clock like that?

He was living on his own.

So he must consider his priorities, right?

What?

That is interesting.

Yugami, what are you doing?

Get back to the investigation now.

A woman without taste.

Doctor Yabuta?

His family is problematic.

Problematic?

He has a son called Haruo.

- It's this. - This one?

This one. You know.

Yes.

Doctor Yabuta wanted him to continue the family business.

But he couldn't get into a medical university.

Did he fail his tests?

It seems he repeated the tests three times.

So Doctor Yabuta can't forgive him.

Dear, don't hit him.

Haruo worked very hard.

Why couldn't you pass the test?

This kid needs a good beating.

Perhaps he would be more competent after this beating.

Dear, don't hit him. Please.

I'm sorry.

Anyone would leave the house if they are treated like that.

Leave the house?

Isn't his son dead?

What?

It seems there's something on your mind since before.

I felt like something was familiar.

It seems that I investigated a case like this before.

- Do you recall anything? - No.

It's rare to have a hot tub murder.

This is...

It's the room of the deceased's son.

Take the prints.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

They're all detective novels.

He must be a fan of detective novels.

This is the case of Leucochloridium paradoxum.

Seven years ago,

a family at Hanadake Police Station area was assaulted.

Only the 12-year-old daughter survived.

This case is identical to the novel.

The book became a best seller.

But it was the work of the book's author.

Although the police was looking into Yokoshima,

he killed himself.

Yugami, look at this.

(Haruo. Birthday: April 26, 1989. Relationship: Firstborn son)

We can't be sure that his son was dead.

So he was classified as dead.

But that's because he never appeared after he disappeared.

It seems that after seven years of disappearance,

the family can register the death.

If the department approves it, the person is legally dead then.

- So you're saying he is not dead? - Yes.

It seems this kid can't get into a medical university.

So he was beaten up by the deceased.

So you want to say that the kid is not dead.

He came back to get his revenge.

Yes, I think it's possible.

How could you say such horrible things?

It is not like you.

It is possible that his son did it.

I know now why it seems so familiar.

Look at this.

Yokoshima Fujiro. The author of "Leucochloridium paradoxum"?

I told you the case seems familiar.

It was not a real case. I read it in a novel.

This is Yokoshima's another novel after "Leucochloridium paradoxum."

But it was not finished.

It is about a son being abused by the father and ran away.

He disappeared for a few years and came back to get revenge.

- It's totally the same. - Right?

How could you think that too?

Also, the father in the novel...

He was also killed in the tub. It is exactly the same.

It can't be wrong.

The deceased's son repeated the scenario of the novel...

to get revenge on his father.

That must be it.

I agree.

What?

No. Are you both crazy?

The dead is still alive.

And he even reenacted the story of a novel.

That is so unscientific.

The murderer also left a note in this book.

A note?

(The grudge will finally be dealt with)

- It must be it. - It is highly possible.

Why are you both...

- Sorry to disturb you. - Did you find anything?

Yes.

I found a few prints on the note.

Is it the prints of the deceased's son?

It should be the prints of the son.

Look at this.

It is too easy to be true.

- Thanks. - It is so scary.

I think there must be some clues here.

Should you take over this case?

- Why are you like that now? - No.

You are the first one who thought the missing son is suspicious.

You are saying this again.

You will take all the credit when the case is cracked.

You can show your potential.

Just try it.

Okay.

Can I call you captain?

No. Let's go. Hurry.

Captain, where are we going next?

Don't call me that.

- Okay, hurry up. Let's go. - Right.

Yabuta's son.

I haven't seen him lately.

- Really? - Yes.

Thanks.

Yugami.

("Santa is Dancing in the Sacred Sky")

(Yokoshima Fujiro)

(The grudge will finally be dealt with)

Are you neglecting your duties?

Captain.

- How was the investigation? - Stop the pandering.

Let's go to our next destination.

Right. You were in charge...

of the Leucochloridium paradoxum case, right?

Are you really not interested in this case?

I think it is too much of a coincidence.

Coincidence?

Think about the note left on the scene.

It wrote "The grudge will finally be dealt with."

And the son was abused by the father for a long period.

That is why the son is the murderer. Don't you think it's too easy?

Yes. That's right.

What about the novel?

It seems too similar.

It is as if it is trying to mislead us.

To make us focus on the missing son.

Do you think there are other suspicious suspects?

Some.

But you are the captain.

- Spit it out. - No.

Why not? The captain is ordering you.

There's something not right.

That old clock.

What's not right?

Look at that. It doesn't fit the electric clock.

You mean there was something else hanging here before?

I think so.

It looks like a painting.

The deceased was an art collector.

It must be expensive even if the painting is small.

So the murderer's target is this painting.

Yabuta found him, so he killed him.

And he faked it as a murder by the missing son.

An amateur would use an electric clock like this to cover the mark.

An amateur.

So we are back to our investigation.

You must have learned it in the police academy.

-The first suspect... -The person who found the body.

So it was that nanny.

She is quite suspicious.

Understood. I will go question her.

- I will leave this to you. - What?

Captain, you can handle that girl.

Are you neglecting your duties again?

You will get fired eventually.

This may be good.

No, I am just kidding.

I want to see what you can do on your own.

Let me see what you can do.

Okay.

This is good.

I heard this is from Yoronjima.

It would've been better if we ate it there.

Hold on. You are making a mess of everything.

Should we both go to the southern island and take a walk?

Think about it.

Staying at a crowded city all the time is so suffocating.

Don't you think so?

What is it? Captain.

- You were right. - I was?

What was I right about?

- Really? It's that nanny. - Really?

You said so yourself. Why are you so surprised?

I am interrogating her now. Join me.

Okay.

Sorry, I have to go.

Kazumi, I am serious.

(The Leucochloridium Paradoxum Room)

(For Yokoshima Fujiro)

(Yokoshima Fujiro)

(A message from admin)

(Hello Kazumi, I am the admin of the Leucochloridium Paradoxum Room)

(Are you interested in the case of Leucochloridium paradoxum?)

(I think you should know the truth)

I don't know if it is just an impulse.

I thought no one would know if someone took a small painting.

The painting is done by the famous painter, Asahi Asano.

That was the most valuable painting in Yabuta's house.

How would I know?

If that is the case, why did you call...

the Ginza's gallery yesterday to sell a painting?

You went there for the money, right? It's not good to lie.

Where were you?

I was giving my adorable subordinate a chance.

I heard you took taxi to work every day. That's very nice.

Your friend told me.

"Working for Yabuta is lucrative."

"The doctor never noticed when his money was missing."

You said so yourself.

This is all me...

You are a regular petty thief, right?

Yabuta found out that you were stealing, so you...

- That was a lie. - Who is lying now?

Do you want to use the lie detector?

That is a good machine. If you lie, the machine will make a loud noise.

A loud noise?

No, when I went to work, he was already dead.

Can you prove it?

Yes.

Because I saw the murderer.

This nanny...

She saw the murderer.

It was a few days ago.

There was a man looking around outside his house.

I didn't think much about it at that time.

But after I got into the taxi, the driver told me...

it seems like something happened to that family.

Yes.

When I passed by that family...

The doctor told me...

he saw a man coming out from the house.

It was almost the same with the man I saw before.

I don't believe you.

If this is true, why did you not reveal it?

Then, the fact that I took taxi to work will be exposed.

That's because you did something bad.

But what I said was true.

I felt cold when I thought of it.

His eyes were cold.

He was wearing a hat and black clothes.

That can't be wrong.

That guy was the murderer.

- You watch too much television. - You're right.

What? The enemy is here again?

Yes.

The dashboard camera recording.

I can't remember clearly because it was late at night.

But this recorded everything.

Hold on. I will get the laptop.

Thank you.

This looks like a clue.

Are you okay?

No. I ate some weird fruit last night.

Go use the toilet.

It hurts.

What? You...

Get me some medicine.

All right, I will.

Sorry, is there any medicine for stomachache?

- Yes. - Thank you.

- Are you okay now? - Yes.

Now we can defeat the enemy.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

It started from here.

(Car recording)

Hey.

This is weird.

What is it?

The car passed by Yabuta's house here.

Could it be the recording of the wrong day?

No. That's not possible.

Please hold on.

According to the medical examiner,

the deceased's injuries happened after his death.

After his death?

Yes, so...

he wasn't tortured like how it was portrayed in the novel...

and then murdered.

It seems like the scene was created...

to achieve the same effect like the novel.

What's wrong?

("Santa is Dancing in the Sacred Sky")

(Yokoshima Fujiro)

Maybe there are more hints in the novel.

We overlooked it.

Human memories are like that.

It is very fuzzy.

This is too fuzzy.

Then why did they install a dashboard camera?

I still think the nanny is suspicious.

Yes. She was obviously lying.

But it didn't look like she had killed a man.

I will leave it to the captain.

I am going to the hospital.

What?

What is that?

We found Yabuta's diary.

The time just happened to be seven years ago.

Seven years ago? Was it the time that his son disappeared?

Yes.

This was the last thing he wrote.

"I was trying to save my wife.

I will carry this cross with me my whole life."

He wrote that he carried the cross to save his wife.

This is very concerning.

Really?

What is it?

There is a sequel to this.

What?

The murderer continues to commit crime after killing the dad.

He targets people who didn't take action when he was abused.

So who was being targeted by him?

The last murder victim was a police officer.

A police officer?

Although it is a novel, it has a great plot.

But before that, his female friend was killed.

Although she was a friend of the murderer,

she betrayed him in the end.

Female friend?

(Ms. Kazumi, you're an interesting person)

(It makes me want to tell you more)

(I want to tell you in person)

(Suspect, Yokoshima Fujiro)

(Author of "Leucochloridium Paradoxum")

(Committed suicide through self-immolation)

(Kawai's daughter, Kazumi. No injuries. Lost her speech)

(She was hospitalized and changed her surname from Kawai to Hikawa)

Hikawa Kazumi?

Hello.

I am the taxi driver, Yorimichi.

Pardon me. What is this?

What?

The recording was deleted?

Yes. Look at this.

The time counter skips a portion.

This was after passing Yabuta's house.

When I went to get the laptop,

did you do something to the recording?

Get me some medicine.

All right, I will.

Welcome back. Look at this.

Blue sky. White beach.

I heard it was called the pearl of the orient.

You would want to go after looking at this, right?

(Island Guide)

(Forget about it. Tell me everything)

Tell you what?

(My past.)

How would I know?

(Stop lying to me)

(I am related to the case of Leucochloridium paradoxum, right?)

(If you don't tell me, I am not going)

Okay, I will tell you everything I know.

Okay? But we have to wait...

until we reach the southern island.

Talking about it while eating pineapples.

Hold this.

Okay.

(Unidentified caller)

Sorry, please excuse me.

I'm sorry.

Please give me an advance.

Are you a fool?

I've never heard of a civil servant asking for an advance.

30,00 yen would be enough.

I said no.

Chief, we got a call from Machi.

The deceased's wife is willing to cooperate with the investigation.

Go, ask around.

- Hanyu. - Yes.

Take this person away.

Yes.

Let's go.

Since our divorce seven years ago,

I have never seen Yabuta.

So I have nothing to tell you.

We wanted to know the circumstances of your son's disappearance.

After the divorce, I was depressed...

and I was accepting treatment in the hospital.

So I wasn't able to protect the child.

I see.

But after he went missing,

I got a call.

A call?

Hello.

Mom.

Haruo.

What happened?

Sorry.

I am dying.

What are you saying?

I am really sorry.

I am going to disappoint Dad.

I called the police.

Then I got a note that made me think that he went missing.

I still believe that he didn't kill himself.

So your husband kept a diary.

This one.

He wrote that in order to save you,

he was willing to bear the cross.

Did you know this?

Since my son went missing,

I have never spoken to my husband.

I don't know.

We can confirm something from the conversation.

Haruo was not the murderer.

Why did you say that?

He had such a nice and kind mom protecting him.

Could he have the heart to do it?

(Kazumi. I have decided to go to Yoronjima)

Sorry, I am still drunk. I will take a walk.

Are you neglecting your duties?

Don't you know that it's hard to digest alcohol when you're old?

Are you meeting someone?

Yes.

Lucky is going to challenge G3 soon.

Hello.

I am the taxi driver, Yorimichi.

About the dashboard camera recording,

I have confirmed it with my supervisor.

The information was transferred to the center.

Sorry.

Why so sudden?

About the print of the note,

after our investigation, we confirm that his son used...

the paper from the notebook.

What?

So it is reasonable that the son's fingerprint was on it.

Sorry, I have made a rash judgment.

It is fine.

Could you check for other fingerprints?

Check for this person.

Understood.

Sorry to trouble you.

What is it?

Chief, can we talk?

What's going on?

Actually...

Actually, yesterday,

I followed Yugami.

You followed him? Why?

I saw him with this guy.

Doesn't this guy look like Yokoshima Fujiro?

What? Why is a dead person here?

I don't know. There are so many unanswered questions.

Did you ask Yugami?

I didn't.

I couldn't.

I think this case might be related...

to that case of Leucochloridium Paradoxum.

What?

Yokoshima reenacted his book in the Leucochloridium Paradoxum case.

It's almost the same with this case.

The truth is,

to Yugami,

Leucochloridium Paradoxum was a special case.

He personally knew the family before the case happened.

What?

Yugami was the person who discovered the crime scene.

For Yugami, it was like his own family who was killed.

You might have been overthinking.

If it concerns the Leucochloridium Paradoxum case,

how could he still ask for a salary advance?

Welcome to the Southern Paradise.

(Passenger. Hikawa Kazumi. All procedures done)

Your flight is this weekend.

Didn't I tell you the truth?

This is just my hypothesis.

The murderer of this case is Yokoshima Fujiro.

That's impossible.

Yokoshima was responsible for the Leucochloridium Paradoxum case...

seven years ago.

He immolated himself afterwards.

However...

Hanyu, committing suicide is different from going missing.

Yokoshima's death was verified by the prosecutor's office.

It was irrefutable.

Then, who is this person?

Look.

Yokoshima hid in his bungalow...

and immolated himself at court. It is all written here.

Can you just accept this?

Hey.

The owner of this bungalow...

(Suicide. Villa at Yumeshi District. Tsuneo Yabuta, 65 years old)

is Yabuta Tsuneo, the victim.

(The victim, Tsuneo Yabuta)

(I am here. Admin, where are you?)

(I am here too. I am wearing a black cap)

(We've met once. You should recognize me)

It's fine. Come.

Yokoshima can't be alive.

At the scene of the fire,

we found evidence that proved Yokoshima's identity.

Then we submitted the coroner's report.

Sorry, about that...

What is it?

I've found it.

We found the fingerprint of the person...

who was supposed to be dead on the notebook.

So Yokoshima is still alive.

Then whose body was this?

It was probably...

Yabuta Haruo.

(Tsuneo Yabuta. Born April 26, 1989. Oldest old of the Yabuta Family)

He didn't go missing. He burned himself.

So that explains everything.

Why Yokoshima still alive.

Why we couldn't find Haruo.

Because someone switched them.

So that diary...

Yabuta's wife...

was hospitalized because of depression.

"To save my wife, I will bear this cross."

This means he didn't tell his wife that his son committed suicide...

so she won't be devastated.

He lied that he went missing.

But it is impossible.

This report....

Forgive me. It is possible.

What?

The person who wrote this report...

(Patrol Captain Yugami Yukimasa)

(For sale. Shōshin Property)

Hey, Captain. Is there any progress?

Yugami, where are you?

The Yumi Jinmachi station called.

They said someone called Hikawa Kazumi...

was unconscious and sent to the hospital.

Hello?

Where is Hikawa Kazumi's room?

Kazumi.

Kazumi, are you okay?

Stop it. She has not regained consciousness.

Let go of me.

- Hey! - Stop it right there.

Kazumi.

Kazumi, please don't die.

The daughter who survived the Leucochloridium Paradoxum case.

She took her mom's family name after the case.

The name was Hikawa Kazumi.

So it was her, right?

Answer me.

We have the recording of the dashboard camera.

Yokoshima.

The person who killed Yabuta must be Yokoshima.

It could be Yokoshima who attacked her.

Yugami.

Stop lying.

I know you went to see him.

What are you hiding? You've been strange these few days.

You made me think that the nanny was the killer.

And you deleted the recording of the dashboard camera.

You are hiding the truth.

Why is Yokoshima still alive?

It was you who wrote the autopsy report, right?

Yabuta didn't want to tell his depressed wife...

that his son committed suicide.

That's why he asked you to hide it.

You used this to disguise it as Yokoshima's death.

Answer me!

It's great that you've figured it out.

Stop messing around!

That is right, Yugami.

If what Hanyu said is true,

I will not let you off easy.

Then just fire me.

That's it then.

Now it's going to be a private matter.

So please get out. Get out.

- Stop it. - Get out!

Tell us everything!

How can I tell you the things I don't know?

The police have to show evidence first.

Kazumi.

Kazumi.

Kazumi, are you okay?

What?

Murderer.

Murderer?

What are you saying? Kazumi, are you okay?

Jerk! Hold on!

I know.

I know.

I'm sorry, Captain.

Today's guest is Uji Police Department's Hanyu Torao.

Yes, here I am.

What is this?

Come on. Take the poster away.

No, this is too much.

How do you feel as we go into the last episode?

Did you cut your hair? Shinboku.

Yes.

Shinboku you cut your hair.

Yes.

We will stop Yugami.

The statute of limitations ends tomorrow.

Where are you?

Jerk!

If we don't catch Yokoshima, we are done.

Are you okay? Please send the ambulance over.

Yokoshima is moving now.

Catch the last episode.
