Original subtitles

Teach, go ahead, and enjoy the show.

I got my own business to handle from here on.

Yumi, just what on earth are you up to?

Mister, I wonder how long these were underground

before being found.

I'm not exactly sure, but I'd guess tens

or hundreds of millions of years.

That's a long time.

What dreams did these gems have in the dark soil?

What kind of dreams, huh?

Perhaps they dreamt of a great woman

like yourself, radiating brilliance.

In the face of the lavish jewelry,

Yumi's excitement remained untainted and innocent.

However, beneath the surface, a sinister plot against Kawamoto

was taking shape in her mind.

Could it be a form of retaliation

for his abandonment of Hiromi?

Mister, do all these jewels belong to you?

That's right.

So if all this jewelry were stolen, you'd go broke, right?

If I went bankrupt, would you come to my aid?

Absolutely! I'll handle everything for you.

You see, my family is quite affluent.

Oh, that's very kind of you.

But there's no need to fret about financial strain.

Even in the event of theft, all the jewelry is insured.

Besides, not even the Fiend with Twenty Faces

could pull off stealing from this store.

Mister, isn't it a bit prudent to be so self-assured?

Word is, a professional thief can unlock any lock with ease.

Even if someone managed to unlock it,

getting their hands on the jewelry is impossible.

-How's that? -Yumi,

lemme show you something.

Put on these glasses and see for yourself.

When you press this button, the infrared alarm system kicks in,

safeguarding the jewels.

Any contact with the infrared rays triggers an immediate alert

to the security company's computers.

Within five minutes, the police

and security guards will be on the scene.

-Within five minutes? -Indeed, five minutes.

Amazing!

I guess don't gotta worry about your financial situation.

Feel free to ask for any amount, it's not an issue.

You're such a reliable man.

Hold on a second.

Mister, if we set this alarm, how do we get out?

There's no need to worry about that. Check this out.

-So it can be remote-controlled. -Exactly.

We can leave without issues.

What do you say, Yumi? Let's head out

and find a cozy spot for some wine and a light meal.

That sounds tempting,

but I'm not too keen on relying solely on a machine.

What if that remote breaks?

You're quite the inquisitive one.

But you have a point, this device is not totally foolproof.

If so, wouldn't someone be able to get in?

Frankly, I'm not fully comfortable relying on machines either.

Take a look.

This is a secret passage known only to my wife and me.

Can you trust me enough to share such an important secret?

Yumi, you're someone special to me.

You can think of it that way, right?

Yes, thank you, mister.

Let me show you through the secret passage.

-What's this place? -My own private parking lot.

You're quite a cautious man.

It was more my wife's idea than mine, she's the cautious one.

I really envy you.

Wait here, I'll get my coat.

Mister, hand me the keys. I'll warm up the engine.

Thanks.

The ancient Roman god Janus was said to be able to see

THE SECRET OF DIAMONDS

PRODUCED BY DAIEI TELEVISION CO., LTD. FUJI TELEVISION

I'm sorry, mister.

I checked my watch, and it was time to call it a night.

I'll see you at the Silver Hotel bar tomorrow at 10:00.

Shindo!

Shindo…

What are you doing here at this hour?

I just got outta cram school and wanted to blow off some steam.

Spare me the lies.

You came to find out if Ozawa is

the delinquent called Yumi Onuma.

I have faith in her.

Ozawa wouldn't stoop to being someone like Yumi Onuma.

Then why don't you go home and study?

Exams are right around the corner.

Shindo, you're a top student.

If Ozawa impacts your entrance exams, what'll you do?

Exams are the least of my concerns right now.

Clearing up Ozawa's misunderstanding is my top priority.

Shindo, use your damn head!

Mrs. Ozawa.

-Are you looking for Ozawa? -Shindo, the thing is…

Midori.

Why would we be here searching for Hiromi?

We're looking for a delinquent named Yumi Onuma.

Yumi Onuma!?

Hiromi, the heiress to the Ozawa family,

was mistakenly identified as this peculiar woman,

causing us significant distress.

I intend to verify the truth myself and prove

that Hiromi and Yumi Onuma are distinct individuals.

That would be greatly appreciated.

If you can help clear up this matter,

it'd be a great help for us.

Hatsue!

Hiromi…

It's Yumi!

It's Yumi Onuma! Mrs. Ozawa, take a good look!

Ozawa! Is that you, Ozawa!?

Hey!

Are you Ozawa!?

No, she's not Ozawa.

She's not that cold-eyed.

Mrs. Ozawa!

Yumi Onuma is not Hiromi.

I've raised Hiromi since she was little,

so there's no room for doubt.

Yumi Onuma and Hiromi are entirely different individuals.

I trust you gentlemen can see that as well, right?

Hatsue, are you sure about this?

She looked like Hiromi to my eyes.

Midori, are you trying to crush my spirit?

If Hiromi were this Yumi, it'd spell disaster

for the Ozawa family.

Hatsue, did you really see a girl in town who looked like Hiromi?

Don't be ridiculous.

How could Hiromi be roaming the streets at night?

She's somewhere around here.

-Hatsue! -Midori.

Over a decade ago,

Hiromi, who was confined in this storeroom,

mysteriously disappeared.

Yes, that's right.

Can you recall where Hiromi was at that time?

She was inside the wardrobe.

Specifically, that wardrobe.

I don't think she's coming today.

Hiromi!

Ozawa!

You're looking good.

Let's go.

-She finally went. -Indeed, quite a relief.

This is good. Hiromi will forget about Mr. Tsutsumi, too.

Is it true that Mr. Tsutsumi

has been spotted in the streets at night?

There's no doubt about it.

Based on the information I got, Mr. Tsutsumi and Yumi

were involved in a clash with a biker gang last night,

and they fled in Tsutsumi's car.

Given Mr. Tsutsumi's recent activities, the likelihood

that Yumi and Hiromi are the same person

is becoming more and more plausible.

Ms. Isomura, aren't you taking this too lightly?

A student has been revealed as a delinquent

in a close relationship with a teacher,

impacting our school's honor.

The school's honor doesn't concern me.

What does is the destined love between a man and a woman.

Excuse me.

Hiromi!

Ozawa, what's with you? You can't even dribble right

because of your nightly outings.

Ozawa, you were wandering the streets yesterday, weren't you?

-I… -Don't deny it!

I spotted you on a street corner

in Roppongi with Mr. Endo and Shindo.

You saw me?

I think you saw the wrong person.

Like hell, I did!

Ozawa, did your grandma ask you about it?

She didn't. Why?

Both your grandma and mother alongside us

saw you in a taxi driving home last night.

You're mixing Yumi Onuma with Hiromi.

Please, don't turn this into a police interrogation.

Let's resume!

Here I go!

Hiromi, why not outright deny their accusations?

Isn't it your indecision that's causing all the confusion?

Jun, I…

Pull yourself together.

Ozawa.

Shindo! Is it true you saw me last night?

Yumi Onuma was the girl we saw last night, not you.

-So it was Yumi? -Yeah, we think so.

Truth be told, Yumi is in a relationship with Mr. Tsutsumi.

Mr. Tsutsumi and Yumi are dating!?

He's crazy about her,

and they were together the entire night.

That can't be. You're lying!

I'm not lying!

Mr. Tsutsumi isn't the man you believe him to be.

Don't you think he's a dirty man for dating a delinquent?

Ozawa, feel free to open up to me about anything.

I'd do anything for you because I love you.

You're all I can think about.

Please, don't speak negatively about Mr. Tsutsumi.

I hate anyone who speaks ill of him!

-Ma'am… -Ozawa.

I've been waiting to ask you something.

-What is it? -Please, be honest with me.

What's your relationship with Kawamoto?

What do you mean?

Aren't you his illegitimate child? Well?

Your secret meetings with Kawamoto

are because you two are father and daughter, right?

I haven't met up with Mr. Kawamoto and we aren't related.

Even with your innocent face,

you're adept at telling blatant lies.

You're gonna tell me the truth, right now!

Do you think I'll let you destroy my family!?

Who could tolerate having their family torn apart!?

Please, stop!

Please, stop!

Ma'am, please don't do anything reckless!

-Mr. Tsutsumi… -Mind your business!

-Please, consider your position! -Let me go!

Listen, I'll never accept you as Kawamoto's illegitimate child,

not even in the afterlife!

Ozawa.

Mr. Tsutsumi…

Ozawa, I see you made it to school. I'm so glad.

Mr. Tsutsumi,

I'm also glad to see you.

I'm more than happy to see you back on your feet.

Mr. Tsutsumi, because of me…

Don't worry about me.

No matter where you are, I'm watching out for you.

Remember my promise. You trust me, don't you?

I do.

Kunihiko's gaze gently embraced Hiromi's back.

Filling her with a realization

that there's someone out there who truly cares for her.

Her heart brimmed with joy.

You really think that was Hiromi?

I'm not entirely positive, dear.

It seems Hiromi is fast asleep.

She arrived home with such happiness today.

From today on, we'll take turns staying awake all night, okay?

Hatsue, if it comes to that, it'd be pitiful for Hiromi.

What are you saying?

What if Hiromi wanders off in the night while we're all asleep?

There's a possibility that last night's Yumi Onuma…

could have been Hiromi.

Then, Hatsue, you think so, too!?

No, I can't be certain of it.

But if it was Hiromi,

we can't let such a thing ever occur again.

Hence, we'll keep an eye on her.

I'll go to bed first. Midori,

I'll take some herbal medicine. Please bring some hot water.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll take a bath.

Please, stop!

You carry Yukiko's licentious blood.

Unchecked, you'll follow her path

and become an adulteress like her!

You must never forget!

Dear, I left your bath towel and change of clothes here.

Yeah, thanks.

Was that you, Hiromi?

She's going to the bathroom.

May you have a good night.

Yumi, what's with this meeting you've dragged us into?

Ryoko, I want everyone to listen.

How much longer are you gonna hang around

in this dump of a town?

Yumi, what the hell do you mean?

Isn't it time we said our goodbyes?

Let's hit the road with our pockets full of cash.

Find a spot we dig and start living the dream.

Yumi, we know we can't stay young forever.

We'll hear you out.

What's this about stuffing our pockets with cash?

I'm talking about snatching the big bucks.

It's risky, but if we don't fail, it's a sure payday.

Hold it.

Yumi, I'm the head of the Yajuu Clan.

Don't go spouting off this crap without consulting me first!

This deal is so big, it blows the Yajuu Clan's rules away.

I ain't interested.

What are you aiming for by disbanding the Yajuu Clan?

Ryoko, the Yajuu Clan are nothing but a bunch of maggots.

No matter where they scatter, it doesn't matter.

What did you say? Try saying that again!

I've got my sights set on a much bigger world.

One where each of us scores a hundred mil in cash

and makes our dreams come true.

100 million yen!? Keep talking, Yumi!

-You've piqued my interest. -I'm all ears.

-I won't allow it! -Boss!

We all have dreams, you know.

What's the harm in listening to Yumi?

Getting a hundred mil in cash for each is a fairy tale.

Instead of wasting time listening to your BS,

we gotta focus on building up our crew

and making ourselves a strong force in this city.

Ryoko, I'm not trying to con you.

-Why not lend a hand to my dream? -Shut it!

Scram!

You're a real pain in the ass, you know that?

Then, let's settle it right here, right now.

Ryoko, you're always itching for a brawl.

In this sorry excuse for a world,

settling scores ain't worth a thing.

What was that!?

Even if you win, it's just gonna leave you high and dry.

Ryoko, let's take a breather outside.

I need to talk to you one-on-one.

Yumi, there's nothing you can say that'll change my mind.

Yumi, you gonna shove me down these steps?

Just like you did to Kawamoto?

You're faint-hearted, aren't you? Can't even trust your own sister?

-Sister? -You said it yourself, didn't you?

You saw me as a real sister.

-Yumi… -Ryoko,

screw everyone else.

I wanna journey to the ends of the earth with you.

The ends of the earth?

You bet.

We'll roam without constraints.

Exploring unfamiliar cities,

sketching scenes, and weaving tales.

Ryoko, let's become dream travelers.

That does sound wonderful,

but how do you plan to fund this dream?

Without the means, I can't fully commit to your idea.

We'll hit Kawamoto's jewelry store.

What!?

I wouldn't suggest it if I didn't see

a perfect chance for success.

Yumi, first you pushed Kawamoto down the stairs,

and now you're targeting his jewelry store.

You clearly have a grudge against him.

-It's no grudge at all. -Yumi,

if you're trying to involve me in this, then tell me the truth.

Ryoko, my only grudge would mirror yours.

It's the anger of a forsaken child.

Yumi…

Yumi, you better let us in on your plans.

I'm giving you a choice, you're either in or you're out.

I ain't interested in folks who can't make up their minds.

How about it, Ryoko?

-I'll go along. -Deal!

Where are you, Yumi?

I wanna see you.

I'd rather die than never see you again.

-What the hell, man? -You're not the one I'm looking for.

-Why were you born? -Rude bastard!

Rude? Hey, you…

Yumi! It's really you!

Tatsuro, get your hands off me!

Yumi, don't be so cold!

I'm living my life solely for you.

If you're gonna be like that, I'm gonna make this face.

I ain't gonna laugh.

If that doesn't work, I'll try a more moving approach.

Yumi, watch this.

Yumi, look at me!

Just catching your gaze sends tingles all through me.

Yumi!

Right on time, huh? Take a seat, Miss Yumi.

I'm a woman who keeps her promises.

-What would you be having? -I'll leave that to you.

That damn geezer!

-Mister… -Yes?

How about you snatch me up and whisk me away to a foreign land?

You want to travel abroad?

That's right.

I've never set foot outside this country.

That is, if you're man enough to do it.

You think I'm not man enough?

No, I don't.

Traveling abroad with you sounds nice.

Lately, things have been tense with my wife and Tatsuro.

A break from Japan could do me good.

So we got a deal?

Yes, we got a deal.

I'll meet you at the airport hotel in a week.

We'll stay the night there before heading to the airport.

Very well, I'll book the tickets.

Yumi, you crossed the line! You too, old man!

Tatsuro, mind your surroundings, will you?

Yumi, we're leaving.

Wait up, you old man!

Goddamn…

I want an explanation!

If you won't give it, I won't stay silent!

Tatsuro, you're getting on our nerves.

She's right, Tatsuro.

Go to hell!

Tatsuro, stay calm.

Dumbass! As a man, how could you ask me not to get upset!?

You ain't no damn father of mine!

You piece of…

That does it!

Yumi, why are you giving me such a cold stare?

You hate me that much? Is that it!?

Yumi, all I ever wanted was to see you smile!

You look tired.

I'm afraid that Yumi is brewing up something awful.

What do you mean by awful?

I can't put my finger on it,

but it feels like

she's marching towards her own downfall.

I just want to rescue her before it's too late.

It's like she's deliberately facing off with the adult world,

aware it'll tear her apart.

I get where her passion is coming from.

At 18, I was like a blazing comet, charging headfirst

into the adult world without a second thought.

Whether I won or lost didn't matter.

In truth, my resentment and hatred

only stoked the flames further.

I couldn't hold my inner boiling rage,

and it spilled out into the city,

causing harm to many.

It took me a while to grasp the harm I was causing.

Yumi's lucky…

to have you in her corner.

I could've used someone like you back then.

Tatsuro!

I think I'm gonna kill my old man…

Tatsuro!

After that, I'll kill Yumi, and then I'll kill myself!

Tatsuro, wait!

Enough is enough! We must tell everything

to Kawamoto and Tatsuro!

Otherwise, they'll be ruined!

Mr. Tsutsumi, please, make up your mind!

All right. I'll talk to Mr. Kawamoto.

Then, I'll talk to Tatsuro.

Mr. Tsutsumi,

what are you going to do about Hiromi Ozawa?

Ozawa is totally oblivious to the fact that she's Yumi Onuma.

No matter what others say, she won't accept it.

Until she recognizes her true identity as Yumi Onuma,

there's nothing I can do to help.

I'd like to speak to Mr. Kawamoto.

Kawamoto is currently out on business.

He's away?

We have numerous northern clients,

spanning from Hokkaido to Kyushu.

He's paying a visit to those distinguished clients.

-When will he be back? -Who knows?

He's so capricious, you never know with him.

He mentioned wanting to travel abroad.

Travel abroad?

I'm sure he plans to bring his illegitimate child,

Hiromi Ozawa, with him.

Tatsuro didn't return to the dormitory last night?

He hasn't been to work in a while. Maybe he skipped town?

Yumi, what business do you have with me?

Kaoru, Yoko's a scaredy-cat, she can't even lift a finger.

I don't intend to listen to you badmouth the boss.

Cut the crap.

Kaoru, you think I'm not onto your real dreams?

What?

Your dream is to be the head honcho of the Yajuu Clan.

My dream?

How about I make that happen for you?

And what do you want from me?

The whole thing's going down tomorrow at midnight.

Got it. So what do we have to do?

We're pretty much all in the dark.

All we know is that Yumi will lure someone

to the airport hotel that night.

Either way, in the end, we'll bring down Yumi,

nab the cash, and bolt.

Nothing changes.

Yumi Onuma was undeniably

steering towards her own demise.

Was Yumi completely oblivious to the fact that her downfall

also signified the downfall of Hiromi Ozawa?
