Good morning.
Is that a Shinto shrine?
Oh! Good morning!
It's because we've continued to have bad cases around here like the possession incidents.
What to say, what to say...
Let my divorce be finalized...
Please let me divorce be finalized.
Ah! The shrine!
Why did you bring such a thing with you!?
You're so annoying in the morning!
The day before yesterday my clothing rack was destroyed by strong winds, so I went to Hands and bought a new one.
It's a clothing rack. Can't I buy it? Is that a crime!?
- This is a workplace! - I know that!
How is this so bad?
The bill, the bill! Your foot, your foot!
Entering!
I have brought visitors to consult with you.
This is Chief Kondo, receptionist of Criminal Investigations One
This is Suicide Survivors Network chairman, Furuto Hisako.
Please, enter!
"Suicide Survivors Network".
Yes, Furuto-san here is the chairman of this network.
Today, the matter is...
What's the problem?
Actually, I expected that my daughter had committed suicide.
Then I recieved a message last night.
From your daughter that committed suicide?
Mail from the dead?
Interesting!
This is it.
"Killed by the manager. Help me."
What does it mean?
My daughter joined a suicide circle.
A year ago on October 30th...
I'm going to go die.
You can't say such things carelessly.
I'm not being careless. I've always thought about it.
Goodbye, mother.
Wait, Michika!
Michika, wait!
Even the police looked for her
but they couldn't find her.
Then three days later...
Her will and belongings were sent back.
I'm taking a look.
But why would she join a suicide circle?
It seems she was being bullied at school.
If I had just listened to her, I might've been aware of this.
My sympathies.
I thought that since my daughter had died, I should give up.
But there's no body, so I can't convince myself.
- There's no body? - In this circle,
it's a rule to not leave the corpse to this world
We still haven't found her.
- A rule? - Yeah, a Perfect Suicide.
Well, um...
Huh? Where was it?
This is it. "PS".
It seems to be a pretty legendary circle.
There's an iron rule and everyone conforms to that rule.
Their process is unconventional.
They only recruit those that strongly wish to die.
After seven people are selected, they are sent to meet at a secret location
where they each simultaneously drink from a glass.
In one of the seven cups, instead of poison, there are sleeping pills instead.
Unfortunately, the one who survives becomes the manager,
disposes of the corpses,
the delivery of belongings,
and then makes preparations for the following meeting.
If for some reason a person pretends to drink and tries to escape, the fugitive is then executed by the manager.
That's where this mail comes in.
Michika isn't dead,
I think that she found a way to escape.
My daughter is probably hiding somewhere
In order to escape execution by the manager, she hid.
Please, save my daughter!
Arrest the manager quickly and help my daughter!
This is my plea.
Ma'am, I understand your story.
- You understood? - Huh?
Ma'am, they've agreed to investigate your case.
That's great news to hear.
Thank you very much.
I'm sure everyone at the Survivor's Network will understand.
After the organization refused to investigate, we really pushed through.
It's the curse of the Shinto shrine.
At least the manager is still alive right now.
The next suicide meeting is bound to happen soon.
We need to prevent the cycle of death.
- I will help you as well. - Huh?
On behalf of the Suicide Survivors Network, I must also participate in the investigation.
I understand your feelings.
Actually, we've had our cyber team look into the people that attended last time...
I see, the manager was definitely within those people.
However, after 10 days we still haven't found any clues.
- All the evidence has been erased carefully. - Huh?
When we find something, we'll let you know.
You're right, yes. As soon as we find clues...
- Got it! - Huh!?
This is it, right?
- 7 people were believe to have participated in the PS last year. - Really?
Perhaps among these...
Perhaps among these, the person that doesn't recieve their belongings is the manager.
- We'll start an urgent investigation. - Thank you.
I'll be conducting this investigation.
We will tackle this case seriously, don't worry.
Ow. Ow, you're being a disturbance to business!
Your specialty is being a public peace disturbance.
- I'm going to arrest you. - Try it.
- You two need to calm down! - I'm going to arrest you!
- You are the shame of the Kyodai University science department. - I'm going to arrest you!
- Excuse me! - Yes?
Um, it would be helpful if we could borrow the belongings and will you received.
It would be helpful if we could borrow the belongings and will you received.
Could we borrow the belongings and will you received?
Thank you very much.
- We're going. - Yes.
After my only son died,
my husband died soon went with him.
Over the year, I've lost everything.
I understand how you feel.
May we borrow their belongings?
Is that what it takes to get my son back!
I ask you, please return my son!
Please, return my son to me!
Please, please, please, please...
Please return my son to me!
Give me a break!
Do you understand how they feel?
It's like playing Whack-a-Mole.
Nobody can stop the people that want to die from dying.
I don't think so.
Death is a certainty,
someone may be suddenly invited
but it isn't something that invites people.
Now as we speak,
people are being enticed to commit suicide.
What? Isn't your habit to be amused?
Here you are, thank you for your hard work.
But this is a big deal, huh?
Today, we gathered information on six of the seven people.
The one that's left, shouldn't he be the manager?
I called the family but when I said "It's about Ikuo-san",
they told me "I know nothing" and hung up.
Well, let's go tomorrow. They might be hiding something.
Yes.
Therefore...
These things are simple. Is there anyone that didn't get it?
Well, for the physics entrance examination, memorize
several different theories up to the date and be accustomed to using them.
Once you start studying earnestly for university,
the interesting world of physics will open for you.
For example, the most famous theories of relativity parodoxes
contain a theory on twin paradoxes.
A twin brother moves close to the speed of light
in a spacecraft and, while traveling,
will continue to slow down time.
In that way, he remained young.
The brother in the spacecraft
would be younger than the one that remained on Earth.
Sorry about that, I got a little off track and went late.
No problem, it's my job.
A student part time job? Are you aiming for something?
I want to go to the Tokyo University of arts.
But I failed so I've been working.
It's not unusual to fail getting into the Tokyo University of arts two or three times, don't mind it too much.
Thank you very much.
Are you hungry? I'll treat you as an apology.
No thank you. If you want to flirt go outside. I'm busy.
I'm not flirting. Guess it was a bad idea after all.
Excuse me. I'll be leaving first.
Huh, old man habit.
So it was that flirt...
Would you like one more helping?
It's okay, right now I have no money.
I see. Well then, why are you always here?
I've lost my keys so I can't go home.
Then go and call your landlord, we don't stay open 24 hours!
I don't have the landlord's phone number.
Did you get insurance for important times as well?
Did boss get a contract?
- Huh? - Aren't these the keys you forgot?
Where did you find them? Or rather...
How did you know to find me here? Hey, wait!
- Thanks for the food. - Okay 380 yen!
What's so worrisome at the country-side?
It's easier to intice people in rural areas.
No wonder.
Let's go.
Then can we eat green tea soba?
Hey, Sebumi-san!
Excuse me.
- What? - We have a question about Ikuji-san.
Did he send you to extort money too?
- Money!? Rude. - Now, now.
We are the police.
Can you tell us more?
That idiot. I was sent his
belongings and will after a good year.
He had us looking around, worried to death.
I suddenly got a call for him begging for money.
The belongings and will were only sent after that?
He'd ask for money many times.
A while after that, the belongings and will would come.
It was the same thing all the time.
How many times did you recieve belongings?
- 3 times. - 3 times cheating death.
Could we see the belongings?
It's old so it might be broken.
Please let me.
Looks like it won't budge.
Shut up.
- Well then, you do it. - I'm amazing you know.
Hand power.
- Amazing. - I'm amazing.
It increased.
Just open the door.
Ah, it's that, right?
Thank you for your hard work.
But all 7 people are already gone.
Then we don't know who became the manager.
But some clues can be hidden in it.
Certainly.
Is something wrong?
Why do you look so anxious?
Some of the belongings have been either chipped or broken.
Don't you think something's wrong?
Actually, I was wondering about that as well.
The bracelet has been bent and the ornaments are missing.
And there's this pen, the lid is distorted and can't be open.
Were they attacked by someone?
I don't think the
manager being the survivor is something that just happens.
What are you saying? - When he forms the suicide circle,
it's to kill the people gathered because he finds pleasure in it.
A homicidal maniac...
There was a rumor in the Suicide Survivor's Network.
Homicidal maniac?
Certainly a suicide circle
wouldn't be the right environment for a homicidal maniac.
Especially since the PS members have to write wills
and keep to the rule of completely erasing the bodies.
In other words, no matter how tragic the murder is
even if that person is dead, there's no body.
To the public, there is no crime.
It's a breeding ground for the perfect crime.
He collected six people in order to kill them.
They fought with the killer.
These are evidence of that.
Furtermore, all of these items are evidence to that.
- Other than Uematsu-san's item. - Uematsu...
Please catch the manager quickly. Please help my daughter. Please.
We understand.
Please leave it to us.
That's what I said.
But I have no clue at all.
Miyabi-chan.
I will do it immediately.
- Toma-kun! - Good morning.
The cyber team contacted us.
Perfect Su-su-su-dara-datta...
Perfect Suicide. PS for short.
It seems the PS has already recieved an applicant.
They only noticed now? It's me.
It'll be annoying to investigate it
I thought if I registered, the manager would definitely contact me.
- But... - Entering!
Miyabi-chan.
Maybe you should register you're wife for the suicide circle.
Huh!?
Again, it's Furuto-san and second department chief Kondo.
Step inside, please.
Oh, sorry, but right now we're very busy.
Last night, Furuto-san registered for the PS.
- Huh!? - Good.
That's why I wanted to ask Toma-kun to hack into the website.
Can you cancel the registration?
That isn't necessary, I really want to go.
I want to find out the truth about what happened to my daughter one year ago.
- I want to see it. - But I...
It's bad. Uematsu Ikuo, 34 years ago.
He was once a skilled engineer in a computer company.
At age 21, he became a soldier overseas.
This guy... This guy was a mercenary.
He's knowledgeable about computers
and was a professional killer.
He apparently had many violent encounters with partners and was fired.
He was fired from being a mercenary,
he probably did something horrible.
- He must be homicidal. - Probably.
Now, let's cancel the PS applications.
It'll be dangerous for two women to go into this.
It's fine, I just registered Sebumi-san and Kondo-san as well.
Huh? Without permission...
I have my poetry lessons this week...
Please!
I really want to go. Please!
- The Japanese... - The Japanese police stand by the citizens.
Please leave it to us.
Thank you very much.
I'll stay in the office.
You registered on a suicide site!?
- Delicious. Super delicious. - Wait a second, what would you do if something happened?
You know, we broke up because I don't want you saying things like that.
I didn't break up with you.
You suddenly stopped contacting me and then showed up with that injury.
I was so concerned about how you were living.
You know, with such a peaceful Japan,
you may not believe what I say and wind up laughing,
but risking our lives and getting wounded is normal for our job.
It's the work I've chosen as a detective.
It could never work between a student and a cop.
- Where's the boss today? - He had work in Nagoya.
Not this one, not this one, not this one.
Not this either. How many do you have!?
Nope, nope, nope.
- Isn't this a beeper? - Ah! This one!
IT CAME!
Sebumi-san, pay the fee.
It's here.
Oh, it's a Z II.
The rounded tail, the kickstarter, it's so nostalgic!
- Nostalgic? - I rode one a long time ago.
Kondo-san, as tall as you are, can you even use your feet?
Rude, I don't want to talk motorcycles with you!
I rode a Balkan before.
Seriously!?
What's a Balsan?
It's Balkan, a bike.
Excuse me, but are you here for PS?
- Yes. - That makes six people.
There's one more person left. It's the manager right?
I don't see anything, but where is this secret hideout place?
Well...
Oh?
PS, right
That's left!
- I see. - We're making progress.
Don't come back.
Sebumi-san is a bully.
There's a building.
There really is.
Welcome to Perfect Suicide.
I am the manager for this meeting.
Well then, in accordance to the rules of tradition,
let's disappear beautifully.
We're proceeding quickly, but please take out your will and belongings
and place them on the table.
This is just a detail,
please write your own express delivery voucher.
To the very last moment, let's not disturb others
and follow the rules for a beautiful death.
- What are you smiling at!? - Sorry.
Well then, these are your final moments.
When the one person that drinks the sleeping medication awakes, they will become the new manager.
Sorry to trouble you, but please take care of things from here on out.
Then, everyone, please pick up your glasses.
Let's make our last toast.
Wait!
Is this the same process that was used a year ago?
- Yes. - Did anybody change their mind?
No, nobody did.
You're lying. You actually killed everybody off, didn't you!?
Hey, it was you wasn't it!
A puppet!?
What is this!?
It's oil! They're going to light it! Let's go!
Furuto-san, what's wrong!?
- Are you okay? - Oil got in my eyes, I can't see anything.
- Please. - Get on my back.
Stop!
Ow ow!
Stop!
Annoying!
So it was suicide.
This is Assistant Inspector Sebumi.
A suspect on a motorcycle was on the run and fell off a cliff.
Send an ambulance immediately.
Then I recieved a message last night.
- Perfe... - Perfect Suicide. PS for short.
I am the manager this time.
It was you!
A puppet!?
I got it.
So what happened to the manager?
He died.
While fleeing, he made too sharp a turn and fell from the cliff.
Since he was the manager, couldn't it have been a suicide?
Hey, who was that man?
Now we have to investigate his identity.
Furuto-san.
Would you like some coffee?
Thank you very much.
Would you like some honey?
Honey in coffee?
No thank you, I'll have mine black.
It's good though...
Here you are.
The oil smells.
It was a terrible meeting.
Definitely.
Though it was a homicidal maniac, we were fortunate to escape with our lives.
What do you mean by homicidal maniac?
Of course I'm referring to the manager, Uematsu Ikuo.
He did try to kill us by pouring gasoline over us and burning it.
As I thought, people who have been in wars are different.
Do you think so?
I had wanted him to be sent to prison.
Instead, he killed himself by jumping off of a cliff on his motorcycle.
It wasn't suicide.
- Not a suicide? - There were marks from the brakes,
no doubt about it.
Brake marks...
When you step on the brakes, the tires stop
But when those tires slip
then the rubber leaves a mark.
Surprised?
It's too difficult for me to understand.
Then it was an accident.
It's better that the man is dead.
It wasn't an accident, the manager was killed.
Killed?
Someone broke the brake lever.
Then didn't it break when he fell from the cliff?
No, it was broken before that.
The evidence...
was the two levers found half way down the road.
I wonder who did it.
Can I ask you something?
Does Furuto-san ride some sort of bike or motorcycle?
Yes, I ride a bike and I rode a moped when I was young.
When you brake, you use both hands to pull the levers?
Yes, I think all two wheelers are the same.
But, you see, with big motorcycles that aren't automatic,
you use the right hand and the right foot to brake.
R i g h t
And the left lever is a clutch.
It's used when you switch gears.
Have you ever heard of that?
So what?
From the seven people present there, the only one who had never heard of that
was Furuto-san.
What are you saying?
Want to hear? Want to hear?
I'll tell you.
I think, Furuto-san,
that you are the one that killed the manager.
If it were any of the other 6, given the way the brakes work,
they would have known tampering with the clutch lever on the left was useless.
I'm sure none of them would.
You know, you sound so sure about it.
When could I have tampered with the levers?
Especially when I was always together with you?
This, so far,
has only been hypothetical.
- What? - Well... Um...
- What? - Well, it's embarassing.
What with the "well"? Hurry up and say it.
I'll be daring and say it,
I think the bike levers were broken
by you using telekinesis.
Telekinesis? You mean like spoon bending?
Don't be stupid, isn't that bogus?
Yes, it really does sound rather stupid.
But I think that idea fits with the evidence.
All of the belongings here are broken.
Well, with the exception of Uematsu-san's.
At first, we thought they were broken
as a direct result of the victims fighting with the killer.
You were the one that brought it up.
You accompanied us to each family's home
and broke all of the belongings using telekinesis.
Thank you.
Foolish.
Do you remember this?
Wrong.
Do you remember this?
The lock to the warehouse? - Yeah.
This was extremely easy for me to open.
I thought Sebumi-san had broken it with his strength.
However, when you break metal like this, it wouldn't become so bent.
The break would have been more notched, like this.
By the way, this bike levers
shows similar marks.
I don't know, I really have no idea what you mean.
Pretending ignorance, you're still pretending ignorance.
That's what is so troublesome about proving SPECs.
Oh well.
Let's talk about what's clear.
All of the evidence over there is fabricated.
Because in the previous PS event you're daughter was involved in
there was no killer, good thing or not.
The truth is that the people there all really wanted to commit suicide.
Of course not.
That killer was the one that killed Michika.
And, just now, he tried to kill us!
Furuto-san, I would like to ask you something.
You said Michika-san was dead just now.
Then, that message sent by Michika-san,
who was the one that sent it?
That's right.
You're the one that wrote that message.
You couldn't accept the fact that your daughter had committed suicide.
That's why you came up with Michika-san not wanting to be killed just prior to committing suicide.
But among the suicide circle, there was a killer.
Those that had the desire to live were killed.
That's the story you deluded yourself to believing.
It's the truth, it isn't a delusion.
Because the gas poured over us
wasn't going to be used to kill you.
That oil that poured over us wasn't gasoline.
That oil he poured was flame retardant.
The manager had no goal to kill us.
The manager's only goal was to threaten and get rid of us.
What are you saying? Just stop it.
On what grounds do you have to say such things?
The manager you killed...
Actually, it was your daughter.
It was Michika-san.
Michika...
She died after falling off the cliff.
These are Michika-san's photo.
This telekinetic power...
By the way, this is the will left behind by Michika-san this time.
- Would you like to read it? - Shut up!
I thought Hisako-san had a SPEC, now it's proven.
I understand the hard feelings, but we can't atone for this crime.
Stop bullshitting me!
Stop.
The police should have investigated properly in the first place.
Those involved in the suicide circle went unchecked.
All of you are bad
atone for all of your sins.
Regrets of daughters, regrets of parents.
The suffering of the people who choose to commit suicide.
The suffering of the family left behind.
Anger, grief, despair...
Don't blame others.
The suicide circle is bad, the police are bad.
The world is bad.
Going around blaming others because you couldn't understand you're daughters feelings.
Atleast now you are aware
that you are the criminal that killed your daughter.
You don't understand the feelings of a parent.
This isn't about understanding anything.
You're under arrest.
Kill...
Kill!
I'll kill you all!
Satonaka-san, Satonaka Riko-san, please enter.
Rika, can you get up?
Rika-chan, can you open your mouth for me?
Okay, say "ahh".
Alright.
Though her fever is running high, it's fine.
No need to worry.
- Just in case, we'll do a couple tests - Okay.
Well then, please wait in the waiting room.
Thank you very much!
Okay, let's go.
Next person!
One... One-Plus-One-san?
It's Ninomae Juuichi.
Who is it?
What!?
Bring them.
