Natsumi Yukihira
Ex-police inspector
Transferred to homicide investigation
Main features: - Heavy drinker
- Messy householder
- Mother of a little girl
The only inspector who shot a criminal
Her unconventional investigation methods
Have singled her out as an oddball
Some say she's trying to upset the police system
When the hospital hijack occurred
Mio!
Cease fire!
Yukihira's intervention ended the incident
But the public never really knew what happened
But critical data about a scheme inside the police
is said to have been stolen then
Yukihira would be in possession of a USB key
Quietly a new destiny has set in motion
You've been tricked?
I thought you were asleep
You were even snoring
I never snore
Do too
Come on you were sleeping?
I wasn't
I was waiting
You were waiting
For a while
Hokkaido Police Precinct
Good morning
- You don't visit us at the office so often - What's the case?
A call signaling an anonymous person
Who made a fund transfer
The windshield of a parked car
Was broken
Really?
Our lady, #1 homicide inspector is bored
Not one murder in sight today
Hi
Good morning
Mr. Ichijou, good morning
Good morning
Good morning, Boss
Good morning
- Good morning ...it's over there
Size 182-183cm steel-nails injuries all over his body
in 369 different places
The head injuries are all mortal
But the deathblow was delivered on the brain stem
Like the other bodies his blood was drained
No bloodstains on the scene
Over
As usual, first on the scene
Good morning
Another nail-gun murder
This one's the 3rd
Mr. Yamaashi
Someone calling you
Yukihira's ex-husband
There
Another nail-gun murder?
You're quite something
You sniff the scent of murder?
You're not into politics anymore?
I'm a freelancer now, anything goes
The body's been identified?
Not yet
The same killer's signature?
You better ask the officer in charge
Mr. Kokubo, it's an easy question
No question is easy
By the way ...
How is Yukihira?
I lost contact
This nail-gun serial killer Keeps dumping bodies
So far 3 victims were discovered
Nobuhiko Takeda, 38 y.o
Takeda?
Wasn't he rather a suspect on the case?
Again
Captain Kokubo may I speak?
What Mikami?
Alright
It's getting complex
so to sort it out I'll explain the history
The first victim of the nail-gun murderer
Was Toshiki Shinjou 42, accountant
On the scene of his body
We found object belonging to Keisuke Tajima, 35
as Tajima had disappeared he became suspect #1
in the Shinjou case
And then a week later
Tajima falls victim of the nail-gun killer
second victim discovered
And this Tajima
On the scene of his body
we find Takeda's fingerprints
To summarize
Shinjou the first victim points to
Tajima, who is killed
And while his murder Throws suspicion on Takeda
Takeda is killed in his turn
So how are they related?
My hypothesis is:
this time the serial killer...
Mr. Mikami
What is it?
The fingerprints found at Takeda's scene
match a person in our record
Who is that?
That is
You're sure there's no mistake?
- Really? - Sure
Kazuo Sato
the freelance journalist
Isn't he Yukihira's ex-husband?
Yukihira's
Where is he?
He was at the scene this morning
Find him
Please notify all officers concerned
He is close to an officer on the case
Not a word to the media
Dismissed
Stand up
Salute
Yukihira
A vacant land in Etokuyo
They are looking for the relatives of the victim
He called 110 (emergency)
The victim was an employee at the bank
Nobohiko Takeda, 38
His whole body was pierced with steel-nails
Wrapped in a plastic sheet
dumped in a wasteland
The police is researching a serial killer
Thank you very much
Yukihira
Your ex
What does that mean?
I don't know
These are the results from the lab
The result? Since when do you care?
I have always cared
As for you
Since when do you back up Sato?
it's not about backing him up or not
It's just that I can't figure Sato as the killer
What are you talking about?
See Yukihira
Listen to yourself talking like a rookie
Like: "I know him too well he would never..."
Am I right?
I get it
Forget about Sato
How about Takeda the victim
What about Takeda?
Forget it
You're not going to conduct your own investigation
But this murder happened in Tokyo
while that Takeda lived in Hokkaido
Wait a moment
Yes
xx
He was transferred from Chuo Bank in Hokkaido
I knew it
Knew what?
I get it, thanks
What? You heard?
Nail-gunned in the head
Awful?
Of course Sato is innocent
He isn't weak enough to kill
Not weak enough?
Killing is a display of weakness
Because you killed?
Probably
What's that?
You're sarcastic?
- Not at all - So then?
The answer
The answer?
What we said before
I'm sorry
I can't think about that right now
Is that it?
It was just jealousy
Of course I was near the scene
But I didn't enter
Yamaashi and Mikami can testify
A murderer always comes back to the scene
You don't trust me?
You think a detective spares his close one's
Natsumi
I'm the next victim here
And this
is set up as a serial killing but it is "murder by order"
Yesterday's suspect becomes today's victim
It's my turn to get killed
You're serious?
Am I in a position to joke?
Why would he mark you?
I may have angered the killer
Just like that?
Before I forget
I did everything you asked
Did you check the data?
Nope
They are not files
It seems the data is dongle protected
Protected?
An electronic lock
Only a dedicated computer can read it
The data is uniquely called from that machine
Whose computer?
I don't know
Maybe we can search and find out
As for me I'm burned
So...
If we find who owns that dedicated computer
We'll find the mastermind behind it all
Quite possibly
Now I'm cornered
That vicious murderer hiding behind the police
Why did he target me
I told myself: as a journalist this is my last assignment
This is my last criminal case
That's what I thought
What do you do next?
I go abroad
Abroad?
Until the track cools off I make myself scarce
I'll be OK, there's nothing to worry about
Our daughter Mio can stay for a while at her aunt's
This kind of risk is part of my trade
This is an aspect you can't grasp
Which port do you go to, I'll accompany you
Fine
the parting will be even more difficult
This
He offered it to me
I get it, but ... It's not you
Is he good to you
I wish you happiness this time
The real criminal
I promise I'll get him
I count on you
I'll call you
Alright
I thought you were at you're place
I called you
It seems you're absent
You OK?
If you need any help call me
Alright
This is an answering machine
It is set up as a serial killing but it is "murder by order"
Yesterday's suspect becomes today's victim
What happened?
What?
A case?
Please come with us to the Precinct
Me?
- I'm suspected? - A murder suspect!
A murder...
Whose murder?
Kazuo Sato
What did you say?
We discovered Kazuo Sato's body
Yukihira, hey!
Let go of me
Be reasonable
Let go of me
Quick the cuffs
Natsumi Yukihira
You are under arrest
Let me go
A famous police officer from the police precinct
She's famous
It happened at Hokkaido police precinct
A suspect in the nail-gun murder cases is held in custody xx
A suspect in the nail-gun murders is held in custody
A former police detective
Now assigned to homicide Natsumi Yukihira
The ongoing investigation should determine
Her relation with the Tokyo case
Roger
Mrs. Yukihira arrested as a suspect
in the nail-gun serial killer case
Yukihira? Arrested?
Yukihira would be the nail-gun serial killer?
Why that?
Why do you do that to Yukihira?
I'll explain the details
Gentlemen, on the scene with Sato's body
We found the nail-gun
Bearing the fingerprints of Yukihira
What does Yukihira say for herself?
We are not there yet
The detective presently on the case
of the nail-gun serial killer is under arrest
This police precinct is now involved in a scandal
Be very careful not to leak anything to the press
If this ever leaked out
the responsible will be adequately dealt with
Chief Kokubo
Chief Kokubo let me go to Hokkaido
Someone else has been assigned already
That's why I need your support
Sorry about that Mikami
I'm powerless
What?
Yukihira made a display of her couple strife
Your prints are all over it
It was at the crime scene
What do you say for yourself
Mr. Ono
Leave me with her for a while
I'll be in the corridor
We spoke with Hokkaido's chief
Had you called ahead we'd have welcomed you properly
Yukihira?
We have the coroner's result
Nothing special
What happened?
Did you kill Sato?
You're serious?
What are your fingerprints doing there?
Where were you yesterday?
Nowhere
You met with Sato?
I didn't even know he was in Hokkaido
Why did you switch off your cell phone?
The battery was dead
I called you at night
As soon as I read your message I called
You'd know it if you checked
I called you from outside your house
You weren't there
You met with Sato
But I didn't kill him
The fact is you don't have an alibi
Are you connected to the serial killer in Tokyo?
You are serious?
A questioning between 2 cops close to each other
A waste of time
However sincere you two can be
I can't really believe it
The protection of the organization is top priority
Who are you?
The Tokyo Public Prosecutor came to take over the case
Tokyo?
What would a Public Prosecutor be doing here?
I just told you
I'll take it from here
- What? - Mr. Ichijou, calm down
Forgive my rudeness you must all get out
I need to question this officer
Don't break my balls, sonny
Tokyo, whatever I don't know, but
You don't bully us here you get out assh*le
- Captain - Ichijou
That's enough
What's wrong with you guys?
Let's save our dignity
Justice is on our side now
WTF?
Yukihira
Don't tell him a word
Ichijou, calm down
Ichijou, still at it
Mrs. Yukihira why
did you kill Mr. Sato with a nail-gun?
You...
Are you half asleep or what?
There's nothing the captain can do
He just came from the HQ
He has no idea
What type of girl he's up against
With Yukihira
Not a move
Yukihira is holding the Prosecutor hostage to run
- She's got a gun - That idiot prosecutor
What's she doing?
Move away
Your car?
Go
Open it
Take the wheel
Quick
They're gone
To the cars
Stop
There are cars left
Yukihira
We can't take the cars at the back either
Notify the HQ urgently
OK
Bring the fire extinguishers
OK
What's your intention?
I wasn't too sure it would work
You kind of overdid it back there?
So, what's your intention?
Mrs. Yukihira
In this situation you're suspect #1
As you know
Once the police holds a suspect they stop looking for their criminal
A "false charge" as we call it
Take me as a hostage and escape
My car is outside
You mean it?
'course I do
I'm safer in their custody
Why so?
Sato said it:
The nail-gun case, in fact
is a "murder by order" case
Yesterday's suspect is tomorrow's victim
That is
I'll be next
The fact that Sato was killed
tells me that now
the killer is close
Maybe
you are he
What?
Come to your senses
I can't kill anyone
Really I can't
How do we proceed?
Let's do it
Or you'd rather be the criminal and end it at that?
This case is not
just the work of a twisted mind
Mrs. Yukihira you found something, right?
What about?
Don't pretend you don't know
Secret funds of Hokkaido police and money laundering
In fact I'm in the middle of a special investigation
Isn't it why You came?
In case you're involved
I was wondering if the 2 cases are related
What do you mean?
Maybe the police is cooking up something
As a Public Prosecutor I have to inquire
For the sake of justice
For those who were killed
For this I need your cooperation
Take me to where Sato was killed
What? To the scene?
Precisely when we want to run
Are you wavering?
Don't be stupid
Stupid?
You are stupid
It's fine
None of them would suspect I'd go back
It's not what I think
The scene is where the track starts
Don't you think?
Let's go
I'll see the scenery the victim last saw
Sato
His last scenery
This is where
Where exactly?
Where what?
Where was his head?
That way
Yukihira
The position of his body
Was he like this?
Yes, like this
♪ Twinkle twinkle little star
So?
Yukihira or their car didn't drive through
WTF? Where did the bitch go?
What's all that for?
I prepared it for you
Courtesy of the Prosecutor's office? or
Are you acting on your own?
I'm on my own
To begin with, a prosecutor
Must stand on his own
There's a rivalry between prosecutors
If you please
Such a stupid idea
Sorry for the trouble
Can you lower the volume
Something came up we need your cooperation
License and registration please
What happened?
Open the trunk please
Thanks for your cooperation
OK
We found the fugitive's car
in Otoshibe, in a barn on a farm
The tire tracks show a car swap
You must notify the roadblocks of the swap
The address is Esashi 527 in Otoshibe
Yukihira?
She swapped cars
She could be already in Tokyo
Please set a surveillance
Around Sato's family
Alright
Gather here
That woman
What trick is she up to
♪ Twinkle twinkle little star
Why do you do that?
I hear the voice of the dead
What?
At least it feels that way
Murakami
Yes
Murakami, let's go
Mrs. Yukihira, please put the gun
in the glove compartment
What's the matter?
Are we tailed?
It's OK
They're a family
[police scanner]
What's this place?
One of my buildings
Now it's empty, you're OK for a couple of days
"One of my buildings"... you're rich
Exactly
There's food in the fridge
Change of clothes
The files on the investigation?
- I don't have them here - Bring them
No problem
I only have the 3 first case files
It will do
As I can't go back to the office now
I'll bring you what I have at home
The shower is there
Please take some rest While you can
We don't know how things will turn
Thank you, I will
There's a lock on the door
if anything happens, call me
Murakami
Yes
Thank you
Welcome back
xx
Mrs. Yukihira the light...
xx
Murakami
xx
Yukihira
xx
Yukihira
xx
You know what you did?
Aren't you the weird police officer?!
This has nothing to do
Is that right?
Your childish sense of justice just to please your ego
You just aggravated Yukihira's situation
You're jeopardizing her life
You have no idea how things work, sonny
We're not playing a game of justice here
You're wrong I was sincere...
How sincere does this feel?
Enough, go to the hospital
I'll take care of Yukihira
You're bringing her in custody?
I want to catch the killer
Yukihira
So do I
First go to the hospital for that wound
The wound is fine
You don't understand Murakami
You're a burden
You were tailed, he outsmarted you, you're no use
You leave Yukihira to me
She should trust someone from the police?
Mrs. Yukihira
Murakami
I'm grateful for your help you offered
But
I trust Ichijou
It's a new hideout
Here the victims' files except Sato
Mr. Ichijou
Please take care of Mrs. Yukihira
What's the plan now?
Is there someone you can trust within the police?
Apart from Sato, the victims' skin was strangely white
Their blood was drained out of them
They were bled dry
He hanged them and bled them
What for?
They are lighter to carry around
exact
Except Sato they were facing up
When does he nail-gun them?
For the 3 Tokyo victims some wounds
show the vic was alive and some don't
But in Sato's case
They were all inflicted post-mortem
So?
He was interrupted and had to hurry
Or there are 2 of them One is the Tokyo serial killer
And another one
Would be you, Yukihira
It seems they all believe it at the Precinct
Your fingerprints were at other places too
And I assure you I didn't do it
A plate of fried offal coming
If what you say is true
Evidence was planted somehow
Someone tampered with the lab's results
if we follow that logic
It has to be me
I'm in a position to do it
Someone who follows the lab work
At the moment the recent results entered in the database
It was easy to tamper with evidence
OK, I'm joking
Any strange moves inside the police?
I don't know anything
Any relationship between Sato and the first 3 vics?
Just the press articles He wrote about them
What happened to Murakami?
Some suspect him of telling a story
As the son of the ex-prosecutor in chief
He is only under house arrest
"The police is cooking up something"
Captain, if you will excuse me
Me too
What are they up to in the toilet?
Kaoru
What?
Take this to the lab secretly
run this DNA in the database
Secretly from whom
Even from them 2
He also pretends to ignore the investigation inside the police
Possibly Murakami teamed up with Yukihira
It is an affront to the authority of the police
Absolutely unforgivable
We need to bring in Yukihira
I saw you talk with Mikami
Well
I hadn't seen him in a long time
Yukihira
You don't trust me either, right?
It's not that
So tell me everything
What are you hiding from me?
"I wish you happiness "
I'm sorry
I don't want to get you involved
You'd end up like Sato
That day
I should have insisted to be with him
You don't know what you're talking about
From now on your integrity will challenged
The villain is unwavering
Why not quit the police?
Quit
Let's go far away
I'll make you happy
Say?
When it's over
When all this is over
Then
We'll go together
Come with me
Where?
What?
Another nail-gun murder
You're going?
I'll go with you
Don't be stupid you'll get arrested
Hokkaido police precinct
Mr. Ichijou
It's all yours I'm finished
It's over there
What is it?
I don't know, the pattern has totally changed
Is it a display
Possibly a decoy to flush you out of your hideout
We'll go back in a while
Anyway stay right where you are
Hello?
Natsumi Yukihira
You're sitting at the back of a black sedan
You can't hide
Who are you?
Did you like my present?
I give you your pendant back
Yukihira
Osamu Yuki, 38
Has a youth record for involuntary manslaughter
You know where he lives?
Sure, I looked
Before that I'll ask you something
Shoot
You and your ex
after the hospital hijack Did you find something fishy?
What's that about?
Come on, don't treat me like a stranger
What?
At the grill bar you said you trusted me
So that was a lie?
It's not a lie
Things got so confused
So the scheme inside the police is pure rumor
A scheme, what's this?
Data exposing a police scheme
money laundering within the police
I have no knowledge of such scheme
This doesn't make sense
They say it's on a USB key
Like this one
Quite possibly
you....
stole it
Me?
Sato was involved too
an order came to eliminate him
From where?
From above
If what you say is true
If it's true?
The serial killer who killed Sato
Was hired by high ranking police
What a scary thing to say
Sure ... if there was such scheme
I need to check his place
although he is a dangerous killer
The police is hiring him
Are you safe going on your own?
I'll be fine dear Kaoru
Don't you know who I am?
Be careful
Yukihira
Yukihira is...
I get it, I'll look for her too
Mr. Murakami where are you going?
Aren't you supposed to be on duty?
It's got nothing to do with you
Now, if you'll excuse me
You're a loose canon
Rookie prosecutor
To all units, the installation is completed
Please tune all to the appointed frequency
For the police prestige we'll catch Yukihira
Sato is not among them
xx
You're no fun
You can shout the walls are sound proof
Mrs. Yukihira
Mrs. Yukihira are you OK?
Stop
Yukihira
Please hang on
What happened to you?
- I take you to the hospital - No way
Let's go to the hideout
I have to give it to him
Give him what?
The key containing the police scheme
The police scheme?
They are in Nishifu heading to Shinjuku
Calling the unit near Nishifu Bridge crossroads
Unit 23 we are at Shinta 3 Chome
Roger, get ready for the chase
Your analysis was right
There is data the police keeps hidden
The killer was after the USB key
With that in hand definitely
we'll have leverage on the police
He promised
If I give him the USB he'll leave me alone
He won't kill me
I'll be safe
If you do that Mrs. Yukihira
This time you'll be the real criminal
If the police knows you gave the key to the killer
Leave it to me
I'll lure him out to arrest him
I'll guarantee your safety
Mrs. Yukihira
It's a folly in your condition
I'll do it I'll go
Mrs. Yukihira, you rest here
I beg you
You're right
It's probably the best way
Where is it?
The meeting?
The meeting is at
the dumping ground at Shiomi
Yukihira
Serves you well
Where is she?
Where did she go?
Welcome back
So you really came back
You brought it?
You have to come closer
closer
It's fine, I won't hurt you
You promised
If I give it to you you'll leave me alone
That you'd let me go
I promised
I'm leaving you alone now
As I promised
You are free to go
Yuiki
Give it back
Your voice
You're that voice on the phone
The instructions for my victims
The boss report to
So it was you
I killed her as you asked
Natsumi Yukihira
I didn't order it
Really?
You asked me to kill
All the people involved in this case
The key?
I need to know something first
A condition?
What?
Who's my copycat
who killed Sato? Surely not her
I did it
He was about to run abroad
There was no time to wait for you
I was a good copycat
You think I'm that stupid? loser
So it was you
What do you mean?
You teamed up with Yuiki
Did you kill Sato?
You did
A botching butchering amateur
I didn't kill him
You copycatted me
My method, my signature
What was that
You defaced my masterpiece
I despise shameless imitators
You're wrong
What about?
Me, I'd have copied you with care
The deathblow in the nape
Put to sleep face up
Body bleed dry easier to carry
I'm I right?
Not easier to carry
Simply, this way it's impeccable
The skin
So white
Who then who dared disrespect my work
This is what I came here to know
I too
want to know who killed Sato
know who set me up
Help me
Help you?
There's only one way
to expose him
- I'm not lying - What if you were?
Then you can have me
So you where after the key
you tortured Sato for it
And you killed him
I was reluctant to collude
with the serial killer
You're villains of the same stripe
What data did you want to protect so badly?
Wait
I'm not finished with him
Go now
This time I'll look the other way
This time only
Same for you this time only
But why?
Why you?
To protect this country
This is above your consideration
You don't know what's in the key
The chosen few
Show the right order of living to the populace
Since olden times
an underground structure
maintains that order
To this purpose secret funds are needed
whilst keeping that secret
there has to be collateral victims
For that key
you approached me?
Yes
It was so at first
This is why you where transferred to homicide
But now it's different
I really want to make you happy
I'm not lying about this
Yamaashi, we're arresting Ichijou
21:42 hours
Suspected in the murder of Kazuo Sato
Arrest without warrant
Thinking that it was you...
Did you hear it all?
So you had it all that time
I thought we had lost contact
When I heard Ichijou's voice I was surprised
Such nerve
Such indecent scandal
You let that serial killer run
Sorry I gave him my word
Your word?
He not dangerous anymore
Now that we've neutralized his accomplice, Ichijou
When did you start acting for the wiretap?
When I found that
a certain person had us wiretapped
What happened to you?
I should have known
So where's the key?
Ichijou has it
Search him for the key it's important evidence
Then...?
Not here
What?
Where is it?
I have no idea
We'll search him thoroughly at the precinct
Search also the surroundings
Let's go
Mrs. Yukihira
I'm through with it
However hard we hunt it
Real evil can't be rooted
But
If everyone was as sincere as you are
The world
Would get a little better, I believe
Murakami
From now on it's up to you
Please take care of Ichijou
Alright
I don't know how far I can help
But I'll do my best
[Suicide of a police officer in detention: Officer Ichijou, 47 hanged himself in his cell] ... They made it look like a suicide
but he was executed
You know why he killed Sato?
Maybe you can tell me
He was investigating with me
on secret funds in Hokkaido
Probably related to that data on the key
The other 3 victims of the killer
Where probably in the know too
Finally
It's all a blur
That's why he went to Hokkaido
It's possible
You were...
in love with Ichijou?
I was
You are a woman branded by destiny
[Tokyo Public Prosecutor Office]
All data is there undamaged
This mission is a success
I will upload it to the police administration concerned
Now they can protect our reinvestment system
Alright
About Yuiki?
No need to worry about him
In a few days he'll be another unidentified body
Alright, untill next time
I didn't expect Yukihira to give us the real key
Right, Ichijou?
That was the idea when we played her
What about her?
She believes the official story
She's fine like that
Assigning you to her surveillance was excellent
What happened?
A remote controlled explosive device
Taking its power supply from the computer
It's been remotely triggered by a cell phone
The data?
I'm afraid, there's no recovery possible
Yukihira, what folly Have you committed?
You have any idea?
This action...
Mikami
You were supposed to be my best tracking hound
I'm so sorry
I didn't see it coming
Murakami
You idiot
I promise I will arrest
The real criminal
I count on you
Natsumi
This USB key
When I cracked the password
I added a program that transfers
all the data to this computer
In case
you had an idea who the mastermind is
Once download is completed on his puter, his cell will ring
then you can destroy the data
What do you mean?
You'll steal the data about the scheme
Then destroy the original
You'll be the only
person in the world
...possessing this secret [Data download completed]
Thank you
In this world
nothing is fair
An eye for an eye revenge responds to revenge
to unfair
the unfair is the answer
