[Helicopter rotor sound]

(Saegusa) I would like to ask Deputy Minister Uda Uda about the Arakawa Kami Arakawa Ohashi Bridge.

Saitama Prefecture was originally

The first candidate site was 5 kilometers north of the current bridge construction site.

in spite of

Suddenly 3 years ago

It was changed to the current Ageo City for no clear reason.

the result

The company that owned the land for the construction site was paid 8 times the assessed value of the land.

It turned out that 800 million yen was paid.

[Noise]

A company that received 800 million yen

Mr. Yu Miyajima, president of Shinsei Logistics, said:

He has been an ally of Prime Minister Natsukawa since his university days.

[Noise]

Moreover, I usually play golf and eat meals.

I heard that they are close friends.

[Voices of criticism flying around]

Contact the construction association

Local office visit at 18:00

[Audio of Diet broadcast]

(Chairman's voice) Uda Seijiro-kun

There is no such fact

[Anger from opposition party members]

(Chairman's voice) Tsuyoshi Saegusa

Teacher... it's okay.

what is okay

(Saegusa's voice) With your eldest son...

Didn't you try to encourage the prime minister's allies to benefit?

(Chairman) Seijiro Uda

I see

There are no facts like the ones you pointed out.

The final decision on the bridge construction site was made by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and Saitama Prefecture.

I have no authority to judge

The same goes for the Prime Minister.

(Opposition party) Don't deceive the people!

[Screams flying around]

[Audio of Diet broadcast]

(Saegusa's voice) I think a variety of things are involved.

What does “nothing” mean?

(Saegusa's voice) I can only give routine answers!

I'm back

Mr. Ogata

Um... won't it affect the teacher's election?

It's okay, Mayumi.

Yeah

Ah... But what if something happens?

Ah yeah yeah

(Aoi) Just in case, it's not even a good omen, sir.

(Rie) Ah...

[Mayumi whispers] I guess he was acting for the prime minister.

I'll go and pick up Yuzuha.

Thank you everyone for your continued support

I'll come too

Thank you to everyone for your continued support

Ogata I'm going

(Rie) Welcome.

(Ogata) Yes!

[Reporters making a fuss]

Deputy Minister Uda! Is it true that Saitama Prefecture was asked to make changes?

(Male reporter) What do you think?

Akigase Akigase Reservoir Pond Rigging Incident

Vice Minister Uda was the one who covered it up, right?

(Ushikubo) Yes, please stand back! through! through!

(Misaki) Vice Minister Uda!

Get back! Can you let me through?

[Reporter's question]

[Audio of Diet broadcast]

Has it been 5 years since the bid rigging incident?

(Hirao) What do you mean, stop the investigation?

This is an order from the SA Agency.

Shit!

(Seijiro) Kouji Kouji! Don't delay

yes

Mr. (Kihara) The matter of the new boat racing course

Aoyagi Construction has released a new plan.

[Cellphone ringtone]

ah…

[Cellphone ringtone]

[Operation sound]

yes

This is Kujo Kujo.

Oh, Mr. Kujo

(Kujo) Well, it was tough.

No, no, there's no need to worry.

My son, Yoichiro, is doing well in the prefectural assembly.

(Seijiro) Please don't worry.

This will decide my next post.

Yes, I'm honored.

(Seijiro) Yes, thank you very much.

Excuse me

Hmm...

In the next cabinet reshuffle, he will become Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.

(Kihara) Teacher! (Oshima) Lie!?

Finally a major minister...

congratulations

congratulations

Because you have always supported Prime Minister Natsukawa...

Ah, that was long...

It was long

Now it's to the grave.

Prime Minister, it's rock solid.

[Natsukawa's sigh]

No no...

Thanks to all of you

(Yuzuha) Mom!

Mom!

yeah? What happened, what happened?

- what? - L give this to you

Oh, it's beautiful

(Yuzuha) Bring it home

(Mayumi) Yes, thank you.

(Keiko) Are you going to take it home?

Already more and more things like this are happening.

(Keiko) It's a treasure. (Mayumi) That's right.

(Emi) Yuzuha's mother

You see, Rino's younger sister is starting kindergarten next time.

Ah, I see. It's already kindergarten.

Hmm

But I'm a little worried about whether I'll be able to enter kindergarten.

It's okay, just ask Yuzuha Mama.

Hey

Let's see, Yuzuha-chan's dad is a member of the city council.

Okay, I'll tell my husband.

it's probably OK

(Emi) Really? (Mayumi) Yeah

Please vote cleanly

(Two people) Please!

[Sound of clapping hands]

As of now, I have been informed by the first section manager that a press agreement has been concluded.

All press club companies have been notified!

(Kashi) This is a threatening letter sent by Hoshi.

(Takagaki) “Association to Protect Justice”

“I kept my granddaughter”

“It is unacceptable to cut off all means of communication”

“If it becomes inaccessible”

“I don’t think my granddaughter will ever come back alive.”

(Kaji) This kidnapping

He committed the crime because he knew he was the grandson of Seijiro Uda, a member of the House of Representatives.

Take care of your first move!

(All) Yes!

(Yonemori) Teacher, the police are...

Thank you for your hard work

- Kihara! - yes!

Can you prepare the money? 100 million...

No, 200 million.

got it

(Kihara) Yoichiro

father!

The scene is on a farm road and there are no security cameras around the area.

The location where the threatening message was sent was determined by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's cyber task force.

I even tracked down the Estonian server.

However, the culprit uses sophisticated anonymization software.

Anything more than that is difficult.

So there's no clue yet...

If you choose a place that is deserted and has no security cameras.

It is considered to be a planned crime.

teacher! It's from the culprit.

[Noise and electronic sounds]

“Message to Seijiro Uda”

“Our demand is not money”

“If you want to save your granddaughter’s life”

“We will hold a press conference by 5pm tomorrow.”

“Confess your sins”

“All the sins I have committed as a politician”

“Put your hand on your heart, look at your sins, and confess everything before the people.”

[Electronic sound]

[Countdown second hand sound]

(Hirao) I received a call that Mayumi Ogata has finished her treatment and has returned home.

Please dispatch the victim response team immediately.

(Takagaki) What the criminal demands is not money!

(Koji) “Your sins…”

“Confess”

Is it a threat to me?

The victim girl is Ogata Ogata Yuzuha Yuzuha, 5 years old.

Lives in Honmachi, Tobata City

Yuzuha's father Tsuneyuki Ogata is

I am a member of the city council of Tobata City.

Eh, Nao...

Eh, Yuzuha's grandfather was a member of the House of Representatives of the New Democratic Party of Japan.

My name is Seijiro Uda.

Hirao Hirao

Is it you?

Did the criminal make a request?

He's Seijiro Uda's grandson.

Suspension of investigation into bid rigging incident

Uda was pulling the strings behind the scenes, and our interview was also stopped.

I have never forgotten the regret of that time.

Human life comes first now.

Didn't he chase Uda too far and get blown away?

Looks like you gave up and went back.

[Sound of door opening]

father…

Father, please help Yuzuha!

I don't know what's going on

I thought I told you to walk on a busy road!

- Ushikubo Ushikubo - Yes!

(Koji) Dad!

Is it my fault?

The culprit's request is your father.

Isn't it your father's fault that Yuzuha was kidnapped?

Dad committed a crime...

Stop it, Mayumi!

Even though I'm the daughter of a lawmaker, I've always been careful of those around me since I was little.

Smiling and smiling for the sake of the election

Yuzuha was kidnapped...

Is it my fault?

Mayumi

It's not your fault

father

We are brothers and sisters

I'm grateful to have been born into this family.

but…

I wasn't born a member of Congress because I wanted to!

(Ushikubo) Teacher! (Yoichiro) Dad! Dad!

I know I can't say anything great.

But now we have to figure out how to respond to the criminal's demands...

Mayumi!

What about Yuzuha!?

father…

please

Please tell me everything at the press conference.

Please tell me all the crimes your father committed.

Please, please...

Ah, that's right, there's that hand.

[In a whisper] Command authority is given to the Minister of Justice...

Understood

I'm going back to Nagatacho.

picture?

What do you mean…

What is Nagatacho?

(Yoichiro) Hey Mayumi!

Hey, it's about us!

Sorry, it's not just the Uda family's problem anymore.

Mr. Ogata, please ask Mayumi.

〔cry〕

Mayumi

Should be fine

Yuzuha will definitely help

how?

(Yoichiro) Kouji!

Yes, I will ask Chief Cabinet Secretary Yuasa to get back to me.

Chief Cabinet Secretary? What do you mean?

“Command authority activated”

Command authority?

If the Minister of Justice exercises command

It is possible to stop the investigation and disposition of the incident.

picture?

Even if my father confessed, there would be no arrest or investigation, and he would be innocent.

Here we go

The eldest son of the Uda family is Yoichiro.

Graduated from the Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo and served two terms as a member of the Saitama Prefectural Assembly.

My second son, Kouji, graduated from the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Waseda-Keio University.

I started an architectural design company, but it went bankrupt last year.

Bankruptcy, so you're my dad's secretary?

(Takagaki) Yuzuha's kidnapped mother Mayumi's husband is Tsuneyuki Ogata.

Ogata became a city council member of Tobata City as Seijiro Uda's son-in-law.

The voters' reputation seems to be good.

Mr. Ogata

to anyone ever

Have you ever felt hated?

I don't remember anything like that...

there is no

is that so

(Hirao) I heard you were in Tokyo this afternoon.

yes

Where to go in Tokyo

This is Ueno

What kind of business do you have?

I went to meet my supporters...

Detective

I'll take your place

Please tell the criminal that I will be held hostage.

- Please - Thank you.

(Takagaki) Congressman Uda becomes Chief Cabinet Secretary

It seems that they are asking for “the activation of command authority.”

That's a no

Prime Minister Natsukawa's position will be in jeopardy if he exercises command authority.

But if Uda doesn't confess his crime

The child might be killed, right?

things aren't that easy

Minister of Justice Itami, a member of the Cabinet,

There's no way I'd accept a proposal to betray the Prime Minister.

[Countdown second hand sound]

(Yoichiro) Mr. Shiroyama Shiroyama! Mr. Kosuge Kosuge!

(Shiroyama) Excuse me.

This time it's a big deal...

What can I say?

(Kosuge) My heartfelt condolences to Mr. Uda.

thank you for your politeness

So, what happened to the issue of invoking command authority?

The Prime Minister's office is already talking about the possibility of exercising command authority.

I hear that discussions have begun.

Yes, but

Is it really a good idea to have a special case where people are excused because they are members of the Diet?

It seems that the public reaction is very difficult to read...

Why doesn't the Chief Cabinet Secretary call me?

I have risked my life to protect the Prime Minister and the party.

How many times have I...

Many times

After this, I will hold a press conference and talk about my crime.

I will definitely help my granddaughter

for that purpose

Please tell the Chief Cabinet Secretary that it is necessary to exercise command authority.

but…

What crime are you talking about?

it is…

I decide for myself

(Kashida) Management Officer

Persons with a criminal record of kidnapping, arrest and confinement, or sexual crimes

I washed the land knowledge information list one by one.

Currently there are no suitable candidates

Don't slack off, expand the area and wash thoroughly.

yes

Ai, thank you for your hard work!

What about Uda? Are you going to have a press conference?

I don't know yet, but I should hold a press conference.

Hmm, that...

How about

What does it mean

It is natural to save the lives of hostages!

What did a person named Uda do?

It's about what people around the Prime Minister think about it.

What?

Wait a minute, the girl's life is at stake!

刑事長！ 刑事長！

Stop it!

Isn't human life a priority!?

Let alone a young life...

-That's obvious- Then!

What matters is the nature of the crime for which the criminal is asked to confess.

[Countdown second hand sound]

[sob]

(Yuzuha's voice) Mama!

Yuzuha Yuzuha!

柚葉！

〔cry〕

Mayumi...

Let's believe...

Let's believe

[Sound of keyboard hitting]

(Ushikubo) Yes.

thank you

- Let's do our best - Yes

Ah Ushikubo-san

that…

for my father

What is politics?

The teacher's wife...

Kouji's mother passed away

I feel like I've become more willing to do behind-the-scenes work for the party.

A behind-the-scenes job?

Ah, that...

It's a so-called dirty role.

But the teacher never enriches his own pockets...

I made miso soup. Please eat it.

Oshima?

yes

[Ushikubo's laughter]

(Oshima) I can't guarantee the taste because it's been since my university training camp.

Looks delicious

Thank you Oshima

gentlemen

I hate the criminal

(Yoichiro) I overslept!

What about (Seijiro)?

〔laughter〕

good morning

(Ushikubo, Kihara, Oshima) Good morning.

(Yoichiro) Are you okay?

(Kihara) Yes, please.

Please pinch it lightly

thank you

[Smartphone vibration sound]

From Mr. Kosuge

My name is Ushikubo.

Ah, Mr. Kosuge, thank you for your help.

(Kosuge) Give a message to Mr. Uda.

yes

(Kosuge) Secretly

yes

(Kosuge) It seems that Professor Yuasa will meet with you.

What about the Chief Cabinet Secretary?

Kouji Kouji let's go

No no, I'll go.

Ah...you can take care of everything else here.

No, please wait

If I were to meet the Chief Cabinet Secretary, I would choose it.

Kouji Hurry!

yes

Hey dad...

Hey dad!

- Teacher, I brought a change of clothes! - thank you

[Sound of door opening and closing]

[Countdown second hand sound]

It's a big deal, Mr. Uda.

I feel sorry for you

We apologize for the inconvenience.

So, are you planning to hold a press conference?

I don't think there is any other option as long as the police investigation is not progressing.

what are you planning to say?

actually…

I am very confused

Seijiro Uda becomes public

There are some things that seem to be in violation of the law.

(Yuasa) You have a lot of self-awareness.

will be criticized by the public

Prime Minister Natsukawa and many New Democratic Party officials

We understand that this may cause inconvenience.

If that happens-

I don't think it would be enough if you left the party.

I'm prepared

With that in mind, I would like to request that you exercise command authority.

Regarding the Kamiarakawa Bridge

As soon as command authority is activated

got it

Mr. Uda

I will convey the words of the Prime Minister

including prosecutors

do everything possible

The same goes for our official residence.

thank you

All responsibility is-

me alone

So I have one more request.

if i lose everything

My successor will be a member of the Uda family.

I would like Prime Minister Natsukawa to take note of this.

[Sound of door closing]

At a time like this, you don't care about the Uda family, do you?

Helping Yuzuha should be the top priority.

Conflict with Seijiro-kun?

why would you do that

I can't tell you the reason now, but

From the perspective of Mr. Kusakawa, Mr. Uda's support chairman,

conflict with the teacher

Is there anyone who holds a grudge against Mr. Uda?

Hahaha...

Well, they're politicians, so there are a lot of them.

a lot

Please eat

The watermelon here is delicious

- I'll take what you feel - Thank you very much

Yeah

If it comes to mind...

My name is Wakasagi Wakasagi.

- Mr. Kentaro Wakasagi Wakasagi, a member of the House of Representatives - Yes.

- Same from Saitama - Yes.

Seijiro Uda demolished the training center along the Arakawa River.

We are trying to relocate the boat race course.

So we moved the training center to the site of the current boat race course.

Build a commercial complex

Wakasagi is in opposition to Uda.

Wakasagi is contracted to maintain and manage the training center.

Connected to Marusan Kogyo

Well, it's collusion.

What is the budget for the new boat racecourse?

600億

600億!?

Even if it was a competition for interests, would they go so far as to kidnap them?

We don't need a new racecourse.

This training center

Local people love it.

It's definitely old, but they should update it.

The boat racecourse is at its current location.

I need to reorganize it.

(Hirao) That's what Professor Wakasagi says.

Yes, I think Mr. Wakasagi is right.

Both Marusan Kogyo and Mr. Wakasagi missed big fish at Kamiarakawa Bridge.

yes?

What if the vested interests of this training center were also taken away?

It's irresistible, isn't it?

Excuse me

sorry! Did you find it? car

(Hirao) Car?

That's the police...

(Takagaki) This is the police, but what is the car?

My car was stolen! From that parking lot

picture? Isn't that what you mean?

That's wrong!

This is my subcontractor company.

It's because you guys leave your keys on and are in a daze.

When was your car stolen?

Ah, yes, three days ago, my sales staff suffered a slight white injury.

(Hirao) White light...

A white light vehicle was stolen from a training center linked to vested interests.

The car that kidnapped Yuzuha is also a white mini.

Was this white car used to kidnap Yuzuha?

There is no confirmation yet, but the location where it was stolen is

Mr. Uda

This is a training center that is being moved to the construction site of a new boat racing course.

(Takagaki) The current budget for the new boat racecourse is 60 billion yen.

Mr. Uda has a contradictory position with Mr. Wakasagi regarding the new boat racing course.

You are in a position to compete for interests.

(Kaji) Which general contractor came to work on the new boat race course?

Please tell me

There are complaints, as usual.

Aoyagi Construction has arrived

Aoyagi Construction is building a new boat racecourse.

I would like to have a counter plan made.

I have applied to the prefecture and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

Was that mediated by Mr. Uda?

Not an intermediary

I was just asking for a favor for a local company.

(Takagaki) Aoyagi Construction...

Managing Director Minato Minato You know, right?

2 years junior to Mr. Uda in the debate department during his time at the University of Tokyo.

I heard that you loved him a lot.

It's a white van. It's a white van. Hurry!

Uda confessed!

One: Uda's former secretary who resigned.

Kiyoharu Inoue confessed to assaulting Kiyoharu

what is the reason

Apparently it's because he embezzled money from his office that he couldn't give publicly.

Well, I can't make it public.

Another one of Uda's juniors from his time at the University of Tokyo

I am the managing director of Aoyagi Construction.

That Aoyagi Construction

When I was involved in the construction of a bypass in Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture.

Aoyagi Construction's subsidiary parking lot

I had Fukushima prefecture buy it at a higher price than the estimate.

Isn't it the same method as the Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge?

What does Uda say about Kamiarakawa Bridge?

remain silent about it

(Kashi) I wonder if the bridge incident can be called a crime...

[Helicopter rotor sound]

[Countdown second hand sound]

(Koji) Okay.

- Teacher- Oh

(Utsumi) Excuse me.

Ah, thank you, sir.

[Smartphone vibration sound]

Oh, Mr. Kosuge!

(Kosuge) A message from Prime Minister Natsukawa.

yes

(Kosuge) I heard that he will take care of the matter of finding a successor.

(Ushikubo) Huh?

I understand, I will let you know

The idea of ​​appointing a member of the Uda family as the successor will not arrive in time.

The Prime Minister said he would definitely accept the contract.

Ha... I did it

No, it doesn't matter!

just…

Regarding “command authority activation”

Minister of Justice Itami says he cannot reach a conclusion yet.

Itami!

That means if my father told me...

Dad, please tell me everything, for Yuzuha's sake.

please!

[Camera shutter sound]

Well, everyone is busy.

Thank you for joining us.

I have an urgent matter that I would like to meet with you today.

We have decided to create a place like this

I recently resigned as Deputy Minister of the Cabinet Office.

(Reporters) Huh?

And to Kimizuka Kimizuka, the secretary-general...

I submitted my resignation letter and it was accepted.

[Noise]

(Seijiro) I will tell you the reason for this.

One, I was seven years ago.

He punched Kiyoharu Inoue, who was working as a local secretary.

He caused serious injuries that took a month to recover.

(Reporter) One month of complete recovery...

One 4 years ago

When a bypass road to Joban Expressway was built in Fukushima Prefecture using the reconstruction budget.

Owned by a subsidiary of Aoyagi Construction Co., Ltd.

We strongly lobbied to change the route to purchasing parking lots.

what do you mean!

The reason was that Aoyagi Construction's subsidiary could not secure enough personnel at the time.

This was because I had heard that they were in dire straits due to rising labor costs.

Are you saying that he resigned from his position as deputy minister and submitted a notification of leaving the party because he received a bribe?

I'm glad that you received it that way.

What about the Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge?

Does that mean it's not a sin?

[Reporters asking questions]

Mr. Koji

What do you mean?

Why don't you talk about the bridge and all!?

♪～

(Utsumi/Yoichiro) Teacher!

(Kihara) Ah...

I am sorry

please

You decided to tell me everything!

Also about the Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge!

That's a case that involves the Prime Minister!

And it's not a sin!

So what if the culprit doesn't admit it?

Dad too

Big brother too

I have family too

Isn't it your responsibility to save Yuzuha?

(Seijiro) Ah...

Sigh...

〔footsteps〕

Am I being monitored too?

No, I saw him leaving the Diet Building.

We were also paying attention to the Kamiarakawa Bridge incident.

Are you going to talk about that?

Is that a sin or is it not a sin?

all…

I was supposed to tell you everything.

all?

I wrote the manuscript

5 years ago

A bid rigging incident was discovered during the expansion work of Akigase Reservoir.

At that time, Representative Uda's name came up.

That wasn't even talked about.

Is that also my father?

We were stopped from investigating from above.

I cried myself to sleep

Who stopped it...

We think it's Congressman Uda.

Politicians are swayed by people's "desires"

Before I knew it, I became tainted by my own “desires”

getting dirty

And you're now that politician's secretary.

why did you come back

I didn't have the strength to manage the company, so I had to hire some employees.

[Smartphone ringtone]

- This is Hirao - Yes, Mr. Kihara.

(Kihara) It's from the culprit!

read out loud

“Don’t underestimate the people”

“Hold another press conference by 10 p.m.”

“Confess your sins to the people!”

“If not, my granddaughter will have no life!”

[Noise and electronic sounds]

[Sound of door opening and closing]

[Koji's heavy breathing]

Or Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge…

Why did your father give preferential treatment to the Prime Minister's friend?

Did it leak to the world?

I was pursued by the opposition party in the prefectural assembly and suddenly became the Constitutional Reform Party.

(Koji) To the opposition party!?

Don't let someone who doesn't know politics speak.

How did the opposition party know?

Did it leak from the New Democratic Party?

(Yoichiro) Idiot!

What do you want to say

I'm sure when the bridge issue was decided.

My father's former subordinate

There was a bureaucrat who was seconded to the prefecture from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.

Is it Yamamoto? Seconded from the Construction Bureau

Yes, Mr. Yamamoto often came to visit my house.

(Seijiro) What happened to that Yamamoto?

Is it inconceivable that he leaked the information to the Constitutional Reform Party?

(Yoichiro) No way, what for?

To oust Prime Minister Natsukawa

But he's just a bureaucrat.

Someone else...

There is someone who gave instructions to Yamamoto.

[Sound of door opening]

Ha ha...

(Aoi) The prefecture is the dividing line for the boat racecourse.

I am late

City doesn't matter

Mr. Ogata, a city council member, can't do anything.

But people still come, greedy for their rights.

Sigh... That's the worst, Wakasagi-sensei is only thinking about himself.

[Aoi's cough]

But it's fixed, isn't it?

Because Yoichiro-kun is here.

Yoichiro is in charge of the prefecture, and Mr. Uda is in charge of the country.

Ah, sorry...

In other words, the new boat racecourse is certain.

Well, I don't know about that...

Detective, why did you choose Mr. Ogata?

here we go?

[bitter smile]

There's a city council election in two months.

Mr. Ogata, are you okay?

Sigh...

Regardless of Mr. Uda's departure from the party,

What if I resign as a member of parliament...

Hey?

[Smartphone ringtone]

(Koji) Yes.

I'm Kihara, and I researched Tadataka Yamamoto.

surprised

Yamamoto is a graduate of the prestigious Musashigawa High School, which is said to be one of the top three schools.

One year above him was a teacher named Kyoichi Shinoi.

Shinoi is Secretary General Kimizuka's child.

That's it

Thank you Kihara-san

Hey, are you okay by yourself?

yes

What about (Taura)?

Did you see my father's press conference today?

Okay, get out!

Ah, if you are there, it's fine.

If you want to be questioned on the same bribery charges as Mr. Yamamoto.

(Taura) Hey...!

I heard that Congressman Kyoichi Shinoi is your senior at Musashigawa High School.

You leaked it to that Congressman Shinoi.

My father worked for the Prime Minister regarding the Kamiarakawa Bridge incident.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Who is behind Shinoi?

Wow, you're saying you don't understand.

What can I do when your family is in trouble?

Mr. Tadataka Yamamoto of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism was asked by Congressman Shinoi

Regarding the Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge, I leaked information about my father to Congressman Shinoi.

Rep. Shinoi leaked it to the Constitutional Reform Party.

We are sorry to have kept you waiting, but we would like to begin the press conference.

[Camera shutter sound]

My name is Seijiro Uda.

I have one more thing

There was a crime that a politician should not commit.

This is about the Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge.

Originally from the riverbank of Ageo City, the current construction site.

It was planned to be built 5 kilometers north.

However

About two months before the final plan was finalized

I-

I received a consultation from a member of parliament.

Prime Minister Natsukawa's friend's company

Located slightly south of the planned construction site

They have a big warehouse there.

That company is-

business performance deteriorates

The Prime Minister is also very worried.

If I can change the planned location with your help, I'll be looking forward to the next cabinet reshuffle.

That's what I was told

Is the Prime Minister's friend's company Shinsei Logistics?

that's right

but for me

No permission to change

So I went to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and persuaded them.

that he had made arrangements for Prime Minister Natsukawa.

Do you admit it is a sin?

yes

Now that I think about it...

I regret that I did something very embarrassing.

To all concerned To all local governments

To local residents and citizens

I sincerely apologize

What do you think?

Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge changed its construction site

The new Arakawa boat race course will be built on this river.

And the white light car was stolen.

This is a training center located in Arakawa Ryokuchi.

Does the culprit have something here?

Demolish this training center and build a new racecourse

Councilor Wakasagi was against it.

Representative Wakasagi has a vested interest in this center.

It's just as I thought

With the loss of Mr. Uda, it will be difficult to build a new racecourse.

That means nothing has changed.

yes

didn't change

But things have changed around here.

As development progresses, so many apartments are being built.

(Koji) I used to play around here a lot too.

That is now...

My name is Kamiya Kamiya and Misaki Misaki from Chuo TV, the secretary company.

It means resigning as a member of parliament.

Are these words an immediate declaration of succession?

That's right

(Reporter) Please tell me what you think!

Well, I'll talk to you first.

actually…

Some people who oppose the new boat racing course in Tobata City

We investigated the ground of the training center, which is a candidate site for relocation.

As a result, the foundation of the training center is weak.

A survey found that it was not suitable for a boat race course.

Yeah, but this survey

There is information that they deliberately chose a spot where the ground seemed to be weak.

From the beginning, there was a conclusion that the boat racecourse could not be relocated...

What are you talking about?

[Reporters yelling]

Eh, there! Father Seijiro made a decision.

We would also like to apologize to the local residents.

All at my own expense...

I don't understand what you're talking about.

Eh

(Yoichiro) Well, that's what I mean.

I am determined to contribute to the local residents of Tobata City.

Specifically, Professor Emeritus Ishinomori of Johoku University was the leader.

A third-party investigation team will begin the investigation the next day.

The contents of this investigation include Seijiro Uda and Yoichiro Uda.

Tsuneyuki Ogata has nothing to do with it.

Ground surveys for the new boat racecourse are an appeal to the local community.

According to the explanation so far

According to outside information, the culprit has a strong interest in that riverbed.

Aimed to prevent the construction of a new boat racecourse

For that purpose, they kidnapped Congressman Seijiro Uda's grandson.

Who is that outsider?

(Reporter) Who is it?

(Reporter) Who is it?

I am a relative of the Uda family.

(Fukuda) In other words...

The training center was demolished to make way for the new racetrack.

I wanted to stop the riverbed from being dug up.

If that's the case, isn't there something that exists in that land itself?

It was inferred that the person in the family was

The woman's name is Teranaka Hatsumi Hatsumi.

(Yoichiro) Kyo Siblings?

(Ogata) Teranaka is somewhere...

Hatsumi-san...

(Shoji) It was the two fathers who were trying to dig things up.

Three years ago, his younger brother Isao killed him and buried him there.

My father is along the Arakawa River.

Apparently he ran a factory called “Teranaka Kenzai Kogyo.”

The factory was first...

This is the place where Kamiarakawa Ohashi Bridge was planned to be built.

Let's have a dream that relocation is not a negative thing.

Switching our thinking to expand the factory

I relied on compensation and even went into debt.

Apparently they bought a replacement land.

But suddenly

The planned construction site has been changed.

[scream]

(Isao) They say they will buy land and expand the factory.

I sold my house and put money into it!? 48 million.

That's all par!

Why am I bankrupt?

Hahahahaha...

But there are apartment buildings all around...

If that's the case, we have no choice but to stop the new boat racecourse.

With that determination, Hatsumi joined her brother-in-law's support group.
