The drama Siren will begin soon. How do you feel?
Kimura Fumino
Matsuzaka Tori
Starting soon right...what's the attraction?
Well we're buddies as cops and also secretly as lovers too.
First episode trailer
What are you guys talking about? -Ah sorry.
Funakoshi-san. -It's not Funakoshi. Basically the show is
Eiichiro Funakoshi
Nishio Sora
Hiromitsu Kitayama
fully loaded right? -That's right.
The whole thing is attractive. There's suspense, action and Kitayama's in it too.
Yup he is. -Well I'm just really Chibideka.
Look at my size compared to theirs.
Ah...2...1 Drama Siren starts!
Translation & timing: avieamber
It's okay to plead for your life.
See...?
See?
4 days earlier
Ah~
Ah~ Crap...I fell asleep.
Oh crap, she saw me. She saw me...
Ah...excuse me...sorry.
Kara-chan
This is the worst.
Love Machine (Morning Musume)
This is a waste on you (fu- fu-)
I've got a really
NICE BODY BODY BODY
I'm saying it myself
Satomi-san Where did you go in that clothes?
Satomi...that skirt. Return it to Amamiya quick.
It doesn't have to be now.
Ah~ I fell asleep in the hallway. A woman saw me.
That's too suspicious. - What's so suspicious about it?
Are you that drunk already? That's sloppy.
I'm not. Miyake, hand that over. -Here you go.
Love is DYNAMITE
Ah~ delicious!
I'm chugging in!
Eh?
Ah~ thanks for the drink.
Inokuma, you're good! - As expected from senior.
I'm not losing to Ino-san.
Miyake. -Alright.
Satomi-san, go for it! -He's working it~
No, stop it! -It's okay...
Stay still. -No, stop!
Makes the world jealous
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Stop it~!
Satomi-kun?
No~!
My turn quick! - Me first!
What are you..?!
Ino-san, take care of her. - Got it.
It's alright.
Damn it!
It's the police. I'm arresting you red-handed.
[Music by Alexandros - Girl A]
Ah~ I don't feel good.
That's sloppy.
You drank too much. Here.
Sorry.
Go take your shower. -Okay.
Are you feeling better? -Hm...
Miyake..after that...can he still work?
No way~
That's cruel. You were the one who invited him.
Inokuma Yuki Mobile Investigation Unit
Satomi Shinobu Mobile Investigation Unit
What... if he can't even drink that much, what's he gonna do about it?
You do it to the max or not all. -Right...
Drinking is also part of the drill.
Didn't senior Chitose say the same thing?
Right okay...
(Radio) Command center to all units.
(Radio) Club Max, Minamishincho 4-chome
(Radio) An incoming call came that a woman has died.
(Radio) Anyone close by, please head to the location as soon as possible.
Mobile Unit 16, roger.
We're heading to the location.
Please make way. It's dangerous.
Please make way. -Stop~
Satomi from Mobile Unit. -I'm Inokuma.
Good, you're doing it properly.
Of course. - It's the kind of job where you do it well or not at all.
Miyake Ryosuke Police Officer
You said the same thing.
That's the spirit right?
Senior Inokuma, officer 'chibideka' is also here.
Chibideka = short detective (nickname)
Hayami? -Yes.
Hayami, what are you doing?
Inokuma-san, you're late.
You were in the middle of patrolling right?
Don't you reek of alcohol? -Eh?
But Hayami-san, aren't you supposed to be off today?
I was nearby.
Hayami Sho Sakura-cho Police Department Criminal Division
It's better to do an early investigation.
Isn't that the cardinal rule?
Compared to someone who reeks of alcohol, I'm more useful.
Well, I'm done here so I'll leave it to you.
I'm gonna have a look elsewhere.
He's despicable as always. -Well...
1.30pm Arrival at crime scene
No sign of disturbance. -Okay.
Ah~ looks like she drank quite a lot.
Are these sleeping pills? -Hmm...
The deceased Kousaka Hitomi-san was the longest serving worker here?
Yes.
Was there anything odd last night?
Last night...nothing in particular.
Who closed up the shop? -I left it to Hitomi-san.
Was there anyone drinking with her?
No...I have no idea.
The girls are here. They're ready for questioning.
Alright, we're done here. -Okay.
Kousaka-san, was there anything odd about her last night?
It was ordinary right?
It's the same as always.
We're the police. Can we ask a few questions?
Where were you last night?
Me? After the shop was closed, I went straight home.
Ando Minoru Sakura-cho Police Department Chief of Criminal Division
The victim's in there? -Yes.
Chief Ando is here.
Okay, thanks for cooperating.
The Mobile Investigation Unit is the first to rush to the location.
Before the other cops arrive, we're responsible to do initial investigation.
After the criminal's arrested, we have no part in the interrogation.
Chief Ando, here.
The victim's smartphone.
I'm tired of work, nothing good will come out of this. It's painful... Thank you everyone for everything.
Suicide note huh... -When did he...?
Even though the forensic's not even here yet, he's moving things around.
Trying to gain points again?
A suicide note and acute alcohol intoxication.
Looks like a suicide.
He said it's suicide. -Suicide huh...
We at the Mobile Investigation Unit have no right to meddle with the investigation's plan.
Eh? Wait, you can't enter here.
Or do you have anything to share?
What's up with her? -Hm.
With this, we can't do any further investigation right?
We have to enter First Division as soon as possible.
What is it? -Hm?
The woman just now
She was looking at you, Yuki.
Nope, she was looking at you, Satomi-kun.
Me? -Yup.
You were staring at each other, weren't you? -I did?
Do you like that type of girl?
No, of course not.
I met her at the karaoke last night.
Eh? Really? -Yeah.
If that's the case, then she was lying, right?
Hm..but I was kinda drunk too so...
I can't determine it was really her. I don't have any proof too.
Maybe she noticed you, wasn't that why she came to see you?
No, I think she was looking at you.
Suicide by acute alcohol intoxication.
In a drunken state
If she was turned upside down continuously on the sofa
it's easy to cause alcohol intoxication.
Well, it's described in the mystery novels but
it rarely happens in reality.
What are you grumbling to yourself?
Hey, here. Fold your own clothes.
Don't go out to the balcony wearing that kind of clothes.
If anyone sees you, what are you going to do?
If our secret's out, immediate division changes.
Although there's no rule such as love ban between police officers
being lovers in the same department is unforgivable.
Who are you mimicking? - Chibideka-chan.
It's better to do early initial investigation.
Isn't that the cardinal rule?
Not even similar~ -His advanced action today
Wasn't that cruel? - Isn't that the usual routine?
He's also aiming to enter First Division like you.
He's working hard to gain merit. - Satomi-kun, you're also aiming the same, right?
Well, we can't get into the same department.
Inokuma-san, you're a senior anyway.
Ah...you're putting on your junior role now?
You better be ready. -Wait a minute!
Ah~ no no I can't... wait!
Wait a minute!
Yuki, seriously...I can't!
Hey... -Hm?
Do you still remember that promise?
If one of us get into First Division
let's get married.
Kara, are you okay?
You were the closest with her right?
Hm...I've calmed down a bit.
But I should go home for today. -I see.
Thanks for your hard work. -Thanks for your hard work.
You too.
Hey, doesn't Kara seem more fashionable now?
I thought so too. She was pretty too last time but
she was kinda lame. -Yup.
She's becoming like the dead Kousaka-san.
Found you.
Dr, I have a favor to ask from you again.
Hey, to the left here. -Okay.
Please make sure to leave nothing behind.
Hey. -Yes?
The seat's dirty. You should be careful since you're working in the service department.
I see.
Who does he think he is?
Are you available?
Yes.
3, 4~
Alright, one more time!
I give up. -That's sloppy.
Morning practice again? Aren't you energetic?
Ah~ that was refreshing!
Why don't you do it too, Satomi-kun? -Eh?
The area around the tummy gets worse after 30 years old.
Nah, I'm fine.
Wait, didn't we just pass it? We're supposed to assist around here right?
Hm? Yeah...
Sorry, you go first. -Okay.
This is Inokuma. Approaching the location soon.
Where's Satomi? -He went to the toilet.
Ah..here he is.
Sorry. -You don't feel good?
Eh? -Tummy.
No...I'm fine.
Chitose Hiroko Sakura-cho Police Department Community Safety Divison
Then..as planned.
Satomi, Inokuma, Fuji and Shimaki The entrance.
Okay. -Okay
You went to look around again? -The roads here are bit complicated.
Aren't you being too cautious? -It's fine, even if that may not help.
It's better to get the terrain in the mind. -Right right...
Who is it? -We're from the apartment's management.
We're here to ask something.
Can you please open?
We received a call that there was some noise coming from here.
It's open.
It's the cops!
Yuki!
I leave him to you.
Satomi-kun!
Don't move!
Stay still!
-Satomi, counting on you!
Damn you!
Satomi!
Eh...8.40am. Arrest is made on the suspicion of theft.
Got the perp. Requesting support.
Stay still. -Let me go!
Oh~ that's a large amount of stolen goods.
With this much, their crimes must have been a lot.
If it's just laptops and mobile phones, that's still okay.
To this extent, looks like they're selling on large scale.
Even if we return them, it's disgusting right?
Satomi, were you previously in the Riot Division?
Yes. -Those were some nice moves.
Well, it's been a while since I move my body this much.
Wanna come over to our side next year? Community Safety Division.
Well... -Hm?
I'll think about it.
Isn't that good, Satomi-kun?
Well, First Division is my aim afterall.
That's impossible!
As I've explained earlier, we've investigated properly.
But...
Ah...what happened?
Yesterday's victim at the cabaret who commited suicide.
It's her father.
You'll understand once you look at her room!
It's not suicide!
Plus
she's not the type to drink at home.
There's nothing suspicious.
It's also written on the postmortem certificate by the police's doctor.
Anyway, it's not suicide!
She's not a child who would cause grief to her parents.
The father just now, isn't he pitiful?
Yeah.
But we can't do anything more than that.
There's nothing we can do about it.
The Mobile Unit can't voice out to the investigation unit huh...
We have to get into MPD's First Division!
Satomi-kun, you're thinking the same right?
Hm...
For me, I think the condition at the moment isn't bad either.
The condition now? -Yeah.
Being together. This feeling.
Doing this together. Working on cases.
Well you see, if anyone of us get into First Division
we're going to be separated.
Besides, sooner or later when our secret's out
we won't be able to work on the same case anymore right?
I see.
Ah! -Eh..what?
Look there. That was the police box where I first worked at.
Ah~ it has become pretty.
Your first job means 8 years ago? - Yup, 19 years old.
After high school, my first night shift as a cop.
The son of a liquor store was murdered.
He was hit by a metal bat.
Ah~ that case where the murderer is still not caught?
Yup.
It was dawn.
I got a call and was first to arrive.
It was really messed up.
Someone who could so such a thing...
Woah...
Good afternoon.
Are you patrolling?
You recognized this car pretty well huh?
Do you remember me?
Yes, thank you for your cooperation yesterday.
What is it? Did anything happen?
Not really.
Ah~ right...
I'm working at a new shop.
Can you give me yours too?
Nah...if there's anything, you can contact Sakura-chuo police station.
I'm Inokuma.
(Radio) Command center to all units.
(Radio) There's an odd corpse around Sakura-chuo.
(Radio) The building is at Miyakawa ward 2-chome.
(Radio) Units nearby please head to the location.
Mobile Unit 16, roger. We're heading over.
Sorry, Kara-san. We need to go.
Alright~ Inokuma-san. See you again.
We'll meet again somewhere.
She's odd but pretty.
Satomi from Mobile Unit. -I'm Inokuma.
Feels like a pervert's act.
White socks.
Could be a serial killer. -Eh?
This socks here and the one in the mouth
aren't they the same?
Nowadays, girls don't really wear white socks, do they?
If so, then why a serial murder?
A serial killer has his own style.
Maybe using white socks is this killer's style.
And putting the other pair of socks into the mouth.
Why did he do that? - The killer
probably likes to enjoy sense of triumph
so he takes something that
belongs to the victims home.
In this case, it's probably the socks.
But it's not our job to interfere with the investigation's plan.
You're right...
Excuse me.
What is it?
I found this.
Alright, it's in our custody now.
It's be good someone comes for it.
Excuse me. -Yes?
I have an acquaintance who patrols around here a lot.
Do you know someone by the name Inokuma Yuki?
Ah~ she's a really nice senior.
My colleague who lives at the same women's dormitory,
she told me senior Inokuma is always energetic.
Women's dormitory.
You celebrate your father's birthday every year?
Yeah, it's an annual event.
I'm adopted right.
So for the sake of parent-child bond.
I see.
Satomi-kun, why don't you come along?
Nah... -Why not?
I don't know how to greet your father.
Just tell him that you're dating on the intent of marriage.
Ah~ that's scary.
Why not? It's not like you were covering it when you were in riot division.
During the soft sword tournament, I met him a lot right?
He's rank 5 in kendo right?
He's Rank 6 now.
I see.
So I was thinking maybe it's better to announce it now.
Right?
When the time comes, I'll meet him properly.
Besides that, there's something bothering me about the white socks' case.
It's okay to stop around here.
We might be seen.
See you.
You're staying overnight right? Rest well.
Inokuma
I'm home. -Ah...Yuki, welcome home.
Didn't you bump into Dad? -Eh?
He just went out for a walk.
Inokuma Miki Yuki's mother
Welcome home, Dad.
Inokuma Bunichi Yuki's father
Yuki..just now you
Dear, you're back already?
I can't reach something on the top. C'mon help me.
What is it? -Give me a hand.
You're dropping the cucumber.
Sakura Dormitory Block B
Inokuma
Woah...
Good afternoon.
Did you put octopus in it? -Nope, you hate it, don't you?
Yuki, have you got yourself a boyfriend? -Eh boyfriend?
Nah...
Well it must be hard right?
When I was working in mini patrols, It was hard to turn down invitations.
I was disliked by other policewomen colleagues.
I probably don't have as much appeal like you, Mum.
Your Dad too, he was really shy last time.
He hardly ever come and greet my parents.
But that part of him is good.
A guy who can't even come for greeting is useless!
Here you go. The missing persons' info. -Thanks!
You're done for today right? -Yeah but there's something bothering me.
You know that's not supposed to be taken home.
Got it. I'll return it fast. Thanks for your hard work.
Thanks for you hard work.
Vehicle number
Watari Kouhei Designer
Are you okay?
Are you alright?
Are you okay? -Ah yes.
It was some light bruises.
Sorry for the trouble.
Due to my carelessness, this is embarrassing. -Ah, no don't worry about it.
I'm really sorry. -Really, it's alright.
Isn't she a nice girl?
Yuki, I'll accompany you till the station. -Okay!
Have a safe trip. -Mum, thanks for the meal.
Be careful. -I'm heading out~
Hurry up! -Okay!
What is it? Isn't he coming to fetch you?
Satomi.
You're dating him, aren't you?
Yes.
Yes? Then why didn't he come to greet us?
He's my junior!
What the heck did he learn from his period in Riot Division? -He's busy.
Yuki, me and your mother
have raised you like our own child.
We want to see you get married
and build a happy family.
Dad...
Eh?
Isn't that Satomi?
Eh....
It's him.
If he's not coming
then I will go.
Wait wait a minute!
He's serious about you right? If he greets us properly now
No no no~
We can't do that.
Can't he do it another time? -No way!
He's probably going to be my future son-in-law, how can I allow such thing?
I gotta teach him a lesson!
Are you still seeing that policewoman?
What?
What are you talking about?
I'll never forget it.
You were fooling with that policewoman in the car.
You...you're threatening your parent?
If this gets out at Mum's company, there'll be a huge trouble right?
Let Satomi-kun go this time.
What ...damn it
Tell Satomi properly.
With this, we're even.
We're even, okay?
Which part of this is 'even'?!
The victim is Yamada Makoto, 24 years old.
Lived at Tamayama and had a restaurant part-time job.
The body was discovered at Miyagawacho 2-chome under the building's emergency staircase.
At the time of discovery, she was wearing the same socks
Only one of the pairs was inserted in the mouth.
Stalker huh...
Sounds like a rape-murder case.
Chief Ando. -What is it?
Isn't there a possibility of a serial murder case?
Serial murder? Then where are the other bodies?
This year itself, there were 4 young women missing.
Maybe they were also...
What's your basis for saying it was a serial murder?
Because only one side of the socks was inserted in the mouth.
That's enough. -Maybe the other pair
was kept by the perp as keepsake. -I said that's enough!
Next.
Yamada Makoto was last seen
by her part-time colleague, Yamaguchi Nanako, 21.
A third year student from the university within the city.
At about 9.20pm, she was seen leaving the restaurant.
The day of the incident, there was nothing
odd about the victim.
If I'm not wrong,
ah...here it is.
The bath's ready. -Okay.
Ah~
Sorry for the mess.
Hm..I have a room not being used.
So feel free to use it. -Are you sure?
Yeah. -This is really helpful.
Such a beautiful girl in my room.
Cute.
I was told to leave my current apartment after I couldn't pay the rent.
Various things were on my mind and so I didn't see your car.
You're having trouble finding a place to stay?
Ah! Hm...
Let me prepare tea.
Good evening
Inokuma-san
A serial killer in a wandering stage
often stalks his victims.
Please cooperate with us.
-Thank you.
We appreciate your cooperation.
Thank you. -Please cooperate with us.
We appreciate your cooperation. -Please cooperate...
Thank you. -Thank you.
Thank you. -Please cooperate with us.
The indication of becoming a serial killer
includes being insociable
and having a meaningless life.
Also, he becomes preoccupied in a
delusional world.
[Speaker] Missing person cases are reported one after another
The Tokyo MPD is addressing public's attention who might know anything about the incidents.
That's impossible, impossible. [Tokyo MPD Sakura Chuo Station]
has established the investigation task force. The investigation is ongoing to solve the case]
As someone who had the ability to enter Todai's Faculty of Law
dropped out and ended in a third-rate university.
Alcohol, women, gambling, debt. My life took a turn for the worse.
But I got something else in return.
I will be forgiven.
Wandering stage - Stage 2
The criminal will find his victims.
A serial killer often
finds his prey in the neighborhood or locally.
Ooyama please.
Which route do you prefer?
Ah...I'll leave it to you. -Okay.
This girl has a nice scent.
Stage 3: Courtship.
After the serial killer marks his prey
he will gain the prey's trust.
Madam, aren't you cold?
Ah~ now that you mention it, the cooler's really strong.
Just now I had a customer who's sensitive to heat.
Oh right...
If you don't mind
Here, you may use it.
An acquaintance's factory's went bankrupt.
So I got a huge amount of this.
I'm giving it to you. It's okay to discard it later.
Thank you.
This looks weird.
Not at all. They look good on you.
[Speaker] Continuing with the news. At Miyakawacho
[A woman in her 20s was found half-naked
at the location, according to Tokyo MPD.]
[A different pair of socks was found worn by the woman]
[The police is looking into any clues regarding the incident]
[The investigation is ongoing. In addition, the body...]
To take off your own socks and leave it behind
this killer's a pervert, isn't he?
[was obtained from the police's investigation. Cause of death...]
As the killer
to be using white socks nowadays is kind of rare.
He must have a quite strong emotion.
Yeah, must be.
I'm different from the others.
I won't be caught.
I will be forgiven.
Once the trust is established
he will take his prey to an isolated location.
Eh? Maybe there's a puncture.
I'll check it out.
Stage 4: Capture
Here, the killer
will reveal who he is.
Sorry.
Madam, can you please lend me a hand?
Can you please check the bottom at the front side?
The bottom? -Yes.
The capture of the prey is done swiftly.
Which side do you mean?
You're a well-behaved adult, aren't you?
It's okay to beg for your life.
See?
See, see what I mean?
Ah~ what a nice face.
Right, I should take a picture.
Hey...
My head hurts like it's cracking.
Get me off.
When the killer's confident the prey won't escape
the killer will enter a climax stage.
Damn it...
You bitch...
I'm gonna kill you.
You're...
the same as me...
You're wrong.
You won't be forgiven.
See ya...
Seems like your luck is bad.
I'm gonna kill you...
(Radio) Command center to all units.
(Radio) Under Tamayama 1-chome's overhead bridge there's a suspected murder case.
(Radio) Nearby units, head to the location.
This is Mobile Unit 16, roger. We're heading over.
Inokuma-san, you're not back yet?
Thanks for your hard work.
-Thanks for your hard work.
The victim's smartphone was wiped clean.
Not sure whether we can obtain fingerprints.
There are pictures inside.
Oi oi oi...
Looks like he was involved in the series of cases.
This guy's Honboshi? How many victims in the pictures?
3 victims.
Is the message delivered?
Thanks for your hard work.
Thanks for your hard work today! -You too!
So that driver was the serial killer right?
Who was it that killed the driver?
Hm...
Well, the case still goes to First Division right?
[TV] Arrested last week. There were bruises on the left cheek.
Speaking of which, Fukunaga was arrested huh.
She looks completely different from the photo used to search her.
The informer really noticed well.
Nah, that should be the speech pattern.
Coming from the same town, the accent is quite unique.
Even so, normally you won't notice.
That's amazing. Cosmetic surgery huh?
What if I go for cosmetic surgery too?
Ha?! -You know
if I sharpen my chin a bit more it'd look cool.
Like an idiot. Why don't you do it then?
What's with your tone? -There'll be high risk too right?
The maintenance after surgery is tough it seems.
The pain is quite bad you know. Can you stand it?
You're talking as if you know about it.
I've read a lot of stuffs.
That's annoying.
What is it?
Nothing.
There it is again...recently I noticed it a lot.
What is it...a nice scent.
Banana spring roll? - What? That's amazing right?
Yuki, you should try it. -Yeah, let's go.
Ah~ I'm good. What about you?
Haha that sounds boring.
How's my mood?
Haha...actually there's a precious girl here.
It's true. We're living together now.
I feel it'd be a waste to ignore her.
Huh? Facebook?
No way, no.
She's a shy one.
Ah she's back. Talk to you soon.
Ah welcome home. You must be tired from work.
Are you hungry?
I'm fine. I'll come out after shower.
Having a woman in the house, isn't this great?
I'm seriously happy. Staying together like this
if I don't do anything
people will laugh at me.
I will move ahead with discretion.
It'd be better for her to be interested first.
He noticed.
Recently I noticed it a lot.
What is it...like a nice scent?
He's a hindrance.
Eventually...
Hey did you rearrange the stuffs here, Yuki?
Hm? Yeah, I did.
The white sneakers. It's supposed to be here.
The worn out white sneakers right?
I threw it. -What?!
You're doing it again...
Eh where is it? There?
The garbage vehicle's already gone.
You're kidding right? That's my stuff you know.
But Satomi-kun it's your habit to leave things around.
Listen to other people carefully. Yuki, you're too sloppy.
I'm sorry~
I'm heading out.
Good afternoon. Is it crowded?
Good afternoon. It's alright. -Alright?
You used the facilities here a lot?
Inokuma-san. -Ah~
I'm Tachibana Kara.
As I predicted, we meet again right?
Good afternoon.
Amazing body. Did she do something?
Do you mind to play a match?
Sure.
Inokuma-san, you're quite good.
You too.
Even though I'm playing every week.
You played squash before?
No, not in particular. -Eh...but surely you've been training.
Does it look like it to you?
I do gym though. -I thought so...
You do muscle training too?
Hm..yeah and also jujitsu.
Jujitsu - Japanese martial art used in close combat without using any or small weapon.
I see, that's why.
Ah hey, how about another match?
I'm going all out this time. -Me too.
Inokuma-san, are you okay?
Ah...I think I went bit too far.
Will it effect your work tomorrow?
I sure hope not~
But it's frustrating...is it like this?
Let's do it again.
Ah...right.
Inokuma-san. -Yes?
Here, if you don't mind.
What is it? A ticket?
Dragon Gate?
A player at the gym I go to gave it to me.
I love this!
Please take it. -Eh...is it okay?
Which player do you like? -Kara-san, sorry.
I'm from the police.
I'm arresting you for secret filming.
Ah...let me go, you asshole!
That hurts! Let me go, you bitch!
Please stay still!
You did well.
Inokuma-san.
Hm..secret filming...
Ah...it's going to be fine.
No but...
Inokuma-san, you were filmed too right? -Eh?
It's okay. No need to worry.
If my appearance can be an evidence, that's fine.
That aside, Kara-san you were probably filmed too.
But we won't cause you any trouble.
Here...you can contact me if there's anything.
Also, thanks for the ticket.
I'm not sure whether I can go but I'll gratefully take it for now.
Alright, all the best in your job.
See you.
A passable achievement.
But
her heart will still not forgive.
Is it because she's a cop?
I won't enjoy this if I don't gain more of her trust.
She doesn't mind sacrificing herself. That sense of justice.
You were seriously too reckless.
Should've called me. What if something happens to you?
That much is fine. -Fine you say?
Inokuma-san, it was your credit huh? Secret filming.
Seriously, you should be commended as a policewoman.
So this is how it is
to truly stretch your body huh?
What are you trying to say?
That's how we crush the perpetrators.
Looks like Inokuma's one step ahead.
Chibideka-chan you should work harder.
Inokuma, you did really well.
Thank you. -Getting closer to First Division right?
It'd be great if that's the case.
But my achievements are still not enough.
Hayami must be happy to see you naked.
You were mad about that? -Of course!
Satomi-kun you're cute. -No, I'm not.
It's still far from enough.
Two things are needed to gain trust.
The other partner needs to think of you as being useful.
Another point is to find the weakness.
Kara-chan~
It's been a while.
It's been a while, Nohana.
Did you change your scent?
Nohana Kara's friend
Welcome.
I'll have jasmine tea please.
Yes, Miss.
Kara-chan, you're getting prettier.
Did you go recently? See, I was
coerced to try different clinics by a friend.
But still, after looking at Kara-chan
that clinic is still the best.
His skills are great.
Nohana, you're pretty enough. Are you changing anywhere again?
Hm?
See, actually...
Look. What do you think?
I'm thinking of going for this face.
Who's that? -Hm?
Somebody's wife?
Well, rather than somebody
A guy I love. -Affair?
Well, I only did it once with him.
But it was love at first sight. So I thought it might be fate.
But he said he won't date me.
Because he has a wife.
Look. He's cool right?
He told you to change your face?
No way! He won't say something like that.
But if I get closer to his wife's face
maybe he'll lean towards me more.
Why did he marry this woman?
For her looks?
Her attitude's bad. She seems to fool around too.
But if he likes this type of face
I'll change mine to this.
Nohana, you're amusing. -Hm?
Maybe I should discuss with the doctor again.
Nohana. -Hm?
I might have just come up with something good.
Satomi from Mobile Unit. -I'm Inokuma.
I think the cause of death should be strangulation.
There are also traces of assault.
Furthermore, the face seems to be cut by something sharp.
The first to discover the victim was the husband right?
This mansion belongs to my wife's parents.
She said to use it freely.
When you came, did you pass by anyone?
What a fool.
Playing around with men.
She probably thought I didn't know.
That's why this happened.
Lover huh...that's suspicious.
Alright, Satomi and Inokuma. Ask around the neighborhood.
Okay!
Did you get any information? -Yes.
The residents in the mansion
and around the neighborhood were asked.
Time of death was when the scream occured. As for any other sound, nothing came up.
Nobody saw anyone suspicious too.
That's not it right?!
Her face was full of cuts. She was obviously murdered.
There must be something! Something!
Previously with the taxi case too
if we still can't get anything out of this it won't look good.
We finally got this case.
Do it properly, Mobile Unit!
I'm sorry. -Next!
Yes, from the crime scene multiple fingerprints were collected.
One of those was confirmed
to belong to the husband, Yosuke.
There must be something...
Something more.
Should we ask around the area again?
There are too many useless security camera around the area.
After 12 hours the recording overwrites itself.
The fingerprints... -Hm?
The fingerprints in the room
belonged to the victim, her lover
and lastly the husband. Then several others.
They think it might be the suppliers right?
But one of them was detected a lot on the floor.
Do you really think it belongs to one of the suppliers?
Not just the lover and husband.
You mean the possibility of a third party?
Hm but they're following the the husband's line of investigation.
Even if we voice it out, I don't think they'll listen.
But that husband profusely denied it, didn't he?
This thing can't be said out loud
but it does ring true.
Is it alright to leave things as it is?
Anyways, let's go to the crime scene.
Ah..sorry, Satomi-kun. Kara-san's coming now.
We need to get her statement regarding the secret filming.
Ah? Oh... that woman?
Ah, okay. Then later.
Excuse me.
Kara-san!
Over here!
Thanks for coming.
Sorry. They wanted another person's statement too.
Actually this should be done by the Community Safety officer.
But it's easier to talk to me right?
They look busy.
That case where the woman was killed right?
Inokuma-san, are you also involved?
Yeah...
Then you must be busy, right?
Yeah, we lingered longer than expected.
Did you watch the news?
The motive seems like a man's jealousy rage.
Eh?
What is it?
No, that...
That...?
That was a woman's act of crime right?
Eh? Why did you think so?
Her face was cut by something sharp right?
The killer held a grudge against the wife's face.
She can't win over that face.
It feels like a woman's grudge.
A female? -Yes, definitely a girl.
There are two ways to gain trust.
First is to become useful to the other person.
Hey, what do you think?
A woman did it? She said that?
Satomi-kun, you also mentioned there might be a third party.
Maybe it's easier for an outsider to notice things like this.
If it was a girl, then a grudge against the wife...
The husband's women relationship.
That idea might be right.
Welcome!
Kara-chan, this is your first time here right? Come in.
Have a seat.
Since then, how was it? -Ah...hm
I was kinda tired and been absent-minded.
Nohana, you haven't been watching the TV?
Ah...shall I turn it on?
Never mind. -It's okay once in a while.
[TV] A woman, Shiratori Reiko-san was found at Sakuragi-cho's mansion
I'll go get some drinks.
[TV] Shiratori-san's face
[TV] was asaulted with cuts from something sharp
[TV] The police is looking into it as a murder case.
Wa...wait
Kara-chan...this person.
Kara-chan?
What's going on?
The sunlight's strong today.
That aside, look at this.
This person...it was his wife, right?
What does this mean?
It had nothing to do with us right?
It's not our fault...
Listen...should we just stop?
We've come till here, there's no turning back.
It's for your sake afterall.
Press it. -Okay.
Maybe it's better to take off your hat.
Who is it?
Ah...I just moved to the house beside you.
I've come to greet you.
Thanks for taking the effort.
Disappointing, isn't it? -Eh? Is she dead?
No, she just fainted.
See?
She's not that pretty.
Beat her, Nohana.
Eh? No...I don't...
It won't be enough with just this.
You were suffering right? You can't forgive her right?
See? -But she'll wake up.
I'll be holding her down, it's okay.
Ah...that's it. I've had enough.
Kara-chan, let's go.
Nohana. -Let's just go, Kara-chan.
Kara-chan, I'm going first okay.
Yeah, that's probably better.
I'll hang a bit more.
Kara-chan too, leave quickly okay?
Calm down, Nohana.
Here, drink this.
Thanks.
[TV] Shiratori-san's direct cause of death was
due the strangulation.
A mixer? -Yeah, Manager Shiratori
met her there and got close to her I think.
Do you know what type of girl?
If I'm not wrong, it should be the girl who works at the nail salon.
[TV] Her face was assaulted with multiple cuts
caused by sharp object.
[TV] The injuries were carried out relentlessly...
Nohana
This incident...might be our fault.
Eh? But how?
Didn't she just faint? She won't die from that right?
And yet...what is this? Why did she die?
What's with the injuries?
Oh right, you were the last one there, weren't you?
Did you notice anything? -Well...
After us, could it be a burglar?
The one who did it was me.
I did it.
Eh...stop joking.
Kara-chan, that's a bad joke.
Don't fool around.
Look, we're friends right?
We went to the same clinic too.
Do you remember?
The first time we met.
Please wait here.
Okay.
I called out to you.
Good afternoon.
Kara-chan...
why did you do cosmetic surgery?
You didn't kill her, right?
But with this...
I can be his wife.
I'm afraid that's not going to happen.
Because nothing's going to change my plan.
Eh? What do you mean?
That time, the one with Shiratori-san was Nohana-chan right?
Nohana-chan right? -Nohana-chan?
Do you have her picture? -Wait a minute.
This girl.
You asked me why I did cosmetic surgery?
Isn't being more beautiful
makes it easier to bear the things I yearn for?
Ah...I understand that...
You're saying the killer wasn't a male?
It was a female. Judging from the injuries on her face
isn't it likely it was female's act?
Inokuma-san. You understand a woman's feelings, don't you?
Wait... -From the husband's surrounding
there's a suspicious person.
Takano Hana. He met her last year at a mixer.
Alright, search this girl.
Quick! -Yes!
This girl was the killer? And committed suicide?
No way.. -Excuse us but
You had a special relationship with her, didn't you?
You mean a lover? No, absolutely not.
It's true I met her at a mixer and
we got drunk and went to the hotel once. That was it.
After that, you didn't contact each other?
She came twice to my shop.
She met the employees but I didn't see her.
It was just for a night, a girl for fun.
And she killed my wife, then suicide?
With this, one case's closed.
Hey, someone fetch me a cup of coffee.
Yes.
Chief. -Yeah?
He said it was just a one-time relationship didn't he?
Was it really the girl?
Huh? -What are you trying to say?
Her fingerprints matched the one found at the crime scene.
The cutter she used to slit her wrist
also matched the victim's injuries.
She left a suicide note on her smartphone.
There were more than enough evidence. -But another thing.
A memo was in her purse. An appointment at the cosmetic surgery a week from now.
From the questionings,
the appointment was made the day after the murder.
Would she really commit suicide?
Satomi. -Yes?
With just one-time relationship, she commited a murder.
A person who died after making an appointment with a doctor?
There are people like that! These weird people.
Don't you even understand that much as a cop?!
But Chief... -Satomi-kun.
I'm sorry.
Ah~ I messed up again.
I thought it might be able to raise some doubt.
People like that, even one person that exists is better, Satomi-kun.
Isn't it good the case is solved?
Maybe I should meet Kara-san.
Ah? -It was her idea.
Thanks to her, the case is solved. -Ah...
Well? -Sure!
Hey, did you bring swimwear?
Yes, I did. -Okay.
Thank you. -Eh?
Kara-san pointed out that the killer might be a female.
That girl most possibly did it like you said so.
The killer, she commited suicide, didn't she?
Yeah, we were one step slower.
We investigated quite a lot and she turned out to be quite suspicious.
She did cosmetic surgery, right?
Eh?
I just thought she might have.
Since she hurt the face with such injuries.
Wait a minute...to that extent
How did you know?
Because I did cosmetic surgery too.
There are two ways to gain trust.
The second point is to show weakness.
Eh? Ah...I see.
Yes.
My original face, you'll be shocked if you see it.
I'm not sure what should I say...
So that's the case.
Ah but nowadays, cosmetic surgery isn't that rare.
Shall we begin our next match?
Yeah, I won't lose this time.
Hello, Yuki?
You contributed to the case this time right? That's good.
No...I just gave a suggestion.
It's from Dad.
It's rare of him to praise me. -Ah...it bugs me.
Eh, what? - You're still doubting something?
Kousaka-san's suicide at the cabaret club
A suicide note and sleeping pills were also left behind right?
Isn't it similar? - As expected from suspicious Satomi-kun.
That's the only part similar right?
This current case was a suicide too but the methods
were acute alcohol intoxication and wrist cutting.
I understand that. I can't explain by just talking.
How do I put it...intuition?
The cases' scent is similar.
Something is strange.
Ah! -What?
There weren't only two common points. Another one.
That woman. This time, she gave you that suggestion right?
The one from the cabaret. -Ah..Kara-san?
We're from the police. Can we ask a few questions?
Where were you last night?
It feels like a woman's grudge.
It's definitely a girl.
You're right about that.
But you must be thinking too much.
Oh right, I played squash with her today.
She told me she did cosmetic surgery.
She personally told me openly.
Both of you have become quite close, haven't you?
Well you can say so. After the secret filming case.
Sorry, got a call.
Hello?
Stage 3: Courtship
After a serial killer marks his prey
he will gain the prey's trust.
This is a very crucial step.
That's because a serial killer
will not kill those he can not gain trust from.
Don't get too close with Kara.
You don't have to say till that extent.
I'm Kara.
What are you planning, Satomi?
Coming to the shop.
There must be something.
Taka Nohana who committed suicide.
Made an appointment at this clinic
a week before she died.
[Music by Anly - Taiyou ni Warae]
Tachibana Kara
Who exactly is this woman? - This shop
do you think there's a criminal? - There must be.
Be it the face or body I'll do it for you.
There's some connection.
Kara-san! - If it's her, it's possible.
