[May 2011] Okay, from today, the Chiyoda Laboratory of Forensic Science will open up!
[May 2011] Got it? In this field, at this moment, there's little competition.
Meaning, it's certainly lucrative.
Keep working hard, and it's easy money.
How greedy. Taking about money so suddenly.
You- you're wearing it?
And yet, a single request hasn't come to us yet.
Are you stupid?
If we don't have any, then go do sales and get some!
And so, it's time for me to bring my daughter to the nursery school.
I'll leave the rest to you.
Take care of it, guys!
How peaceful is this. - You took it off.
When a drop of water falls into a pool of water, the ripples spread out.
People are probably concerned with others in the same way.
Wait until I get there. Got it!?
If you let a drop of water fall into someone's heart,
the ripples will spread out whether they like it or not.
Chief? Chief!
Chief!
Woah.
- What?
Nobody is able to stop that.
How's the chief?
They're still continuing the treatment now.
Hey, what happened to Maki?
Tell me everything, Enishi.
She was shot with a gun.
Why?
I don't know.
How's the chief's condition?
She has survived.
However, she has not regained consciousness.
We can't predict anything in this situation.
I see.
We confirmed this once we arrived and,
money and such things were not touched or stolen.
So that means that their motive wasn't robbery.
You're stupid, aren't you.
It's the chief's desk that was broken into.
Their aim was the chief's possessions.
Excuse me.
Well then, was anything missing from the desk?
Like I'd know.
It's creepy if I knew all about the chief's personal belongings.
Excuse me.
Are you alright?
Thank you.
I still can't believe what happened to the chief.
Understood.
Thank you for your cooperation.
If anything comes up, we'll speak with you again.
It seems like the criminal was aiming for Chiyoda-san's possessions.
It might be a person that has some sort of connection with Chiyoda-san.
Have any ideas on who the criminal is?
No.
Me either.
I see.
Who would do such a horrible thing...
What do you plan on doing with Kurumi-chan?
For today, she'll be at my house.
I'm going back to my own house.
I have school too.
Thinking of school at such a time.
You don't have to push yourself, you know?
I can't do that. If I take a break from school,
I'll get in trouble with Maki.
She'll say, "you're making a big deal even though I didn't die".
Then, I'll go to Kurumi-chan's house.
The chief would feel at ease if we were together, right?
Thanks.
I checked the status with the investigations headquarters.
They're investigating the areas near the scene and are going back all the way
to Maki-san's detective days, to check for any suspicious people.
So, we don't have any clues again.
Actually, there was something that bothered me last night...
Something "bothered you"?
Maki-san suddenly invited me out for a drink.
If something happened to me,
I wonder how Kurumi would manage.
What? No, don't say such ill omened things.
I'm just saying "what if".
We're one mother and one daughter,
so I thought that it's better if,
as a mother, I do what I can, while I can.
Doesn't it seem like she had a premonition of this incident?
You didn't think that it was weird?!
No, um...
I'm very ashamed!
She's always turned me down again and again so,
I was in ecstasy when she invited me.
There's no one more useless than you.
What should we do from now on?
We have cases that are still ongoing...
All we can do is take a break for a while.
I understand. Well, I'll go to Maki-san's hospital.
But, why did such a thing happen to the chief?
She didn't do anything, right? To make people resent her.
This is a private forensic laboratory, right?
For something like this to happen...
The criminal was searching inside the chief's desk, right?
What were they looking for?
You said this, right?
That "there were sounds here and the chief came down from upstairs".
Yes. And then, she probably ran into the criminal...
This means that the criminal was still in the middle of searching for something.
Isn't it possible that whatever they were looking for is still left here?
We might find some clues.
Argh!
Komiyama-san!
Yes.
This.
Kurumi's birthday...
The chief's birthday...
House number. Postal code.
Ah, our birthdays.
That's really unlikely.
Kashiwagi...
Nagareta, I have something to ask you. Have a minute?
It's about the chief, right?
Yeah.
Then you can ask me here.
Did you ever hear about Chiyoda-san and Nagamoto
having any personal connections?
No. That's unbelievable to start with. The chief was a government official.
She wasn't in a position to show up in the forensic laboratory for every single thing.
Besides, when she met me, she already quit the police force.
What exactly do you want to say?
The gun that was used to shoot Chiyoda-san was identified.
Smith & Wesson M36.
The rifling marks
matched the gun that shot Nagatomo.
What does this mean?
The possibility is high that the criminal that shot them is the same person.
Meaning,
Chiyoda-san is also connected to Nagatomo's case.

[May 2011] Ah...
Hey!
Why are you using such expensive reagents to practise!?
Oh, you know, this technique, it's something to learn, so I can't help it.
Are you stupid? - Stu...
I'll deduct it from your salary!
And yet you were my subordinate when you were a newbie.
That's when we were detectives!
Now, I'm the boss, you're the newbie!
Our positions have totally been reversed!
It feels suffocating when I'm with him.
He suddenly keeps staring into space, and stops moving.
He makes pensive faces many times in a single day.
It's weird.
We can't do anything about it. It's still been 3 months since his lover's case.
I understand but, I lose my energy and can't work.
I heard that your only friend is a cactus.
Can't such booooring people like you become friends with each other!?
What?
You have no delicacy!
Don't worry, it'll be alright.
He'll surely open his heart soon enough.
What is this about...
I have so many things I want to ask you.
So you were connected to it, to Emiri's case.
What happened?
Answer me, chief...
So that's why, this lady,
I'm saying that she has as much life as a cockroach.
That's difficult. - You get it?
Lady, you get it? - Yes, yes, yes.
Hey, she really won't die just by getting shot with a gun. Right?
You know, lunch has already finished.
Okay. Then, um... 2 bottles of hot sake, please.
I was thinking of changing jobs.
Huh, did something happen?
I want to try and work with drawings.
I found a lot of information on job offers.
If I'm not picky about it, I think I'll find one right away.
Even though you thought it suited you, your current job.
In the first place, I only started it because my job at the bank didn't suit me.
But you said that "it's an interesting job", right?
That you were "thankful to the chief that invited you".
I'll ask you just in case but,
you're not changing jobs for my sake, right?
I'm not. It's because it was always my dream to have a job related to drawing.
I see. Then, that's fine.
Allies of justice, forensic scientists!
You're the criminal!
They're playing the "forensic scientist game".
Sho and Yuu hate playing the criminal,
so they're both playing as you.
Those are your fingerprints!
What's with that.
These are your fingerprints! - No!
So the both of you came.
I met Matsui-san outside by chance...
How's Kurumi-chan?
She went to school.
She's kind of pitiful.
Because it's like she's saying "I'm alright" so desperately.
Ah, if Tasaka-san comes, it'll be the same as always.
Is Nagareta-san here?
No, today, not yet...
I see.
If it was possible, I wanted to tell him personally.
Can you pass this on to him, please?
Okay. Um, did something happen?
I'm thinking of quitting this place.
What?
I was thinking of my own life in the distant future.
After all, I can't risk my life for this job.
The criminal that shot the chief
might be the criminal that killed Nagatomo Emiri-san.
They're lurking around somewhere now.
We don't know when they'll be back...
If I disappear,
then the person that takes care of my cactus will disappear too.
But, for the sake of a cactus...
It's fine even if I disappear from this place, right?
Wait... Komiyama-san!
Don't restrain her against her own will.
I understand how Komiyama-san feels.
Actually, I was thinking to quit too...
I'm sorry.
I think that the chief's case is irrational.
That's right. You can't forgive them, right?
But,
I'm scared.
Not only about myself.
I end up unconsciously thinking about if something happened
to my little brothers and sisters.
I know that it's heartless. But...
Don't worry about it.
You're not wrong.
I'm really sorry.
It took you a long time to come home so...
I saw a nightmare last night.
That I end up not being able to see Maki anymore.
Okay.
I was keeping a secret from Maki.
Okay.
About Woota.
Woota?
I picked up a puppy.
Right now, the landlord is looking after it.
I was thinking of telling Maki properly.
That I want to keep it.
I see.
I could never say it.
I felt like I'd put a burden on her.
I was thinking that I'd tell her everything honestly from now on.
But even so...
You come here often, don't you.
Whenever I noticed you, I hesitated on whether or not I should speak to you.
Um...
Could it be, that you don't remember me?
No, I'm sorry.
I'll remember right away.
I'm not really good at that. Like, remembering people's faces.
It's a joke. We're meeting for the first time.
What? - You tried to remember so seriously.
Even though you'd never remember.
A clumsy and kind person.
Just like Emiri said.
Do you know Emiri?
Yes, Nagareta Enishi-san.
My name is Tanaka Hanako.
I used to come here every week on Sundays for mass.
At that time, I met Emiri, who came to volunteer
and tend to the flowers.
Emiri was my one and only friend.
When I heard about the incident, I was really shocked.
Ah, please excuse me for speaking to you so suddenly.
Emiri showed me your photo before,
so I just...
I'm happy to have chatted with you.
Well then, I'll be going. - Ah, there's one thing on my mind.
A little before that incident,
Emiri seemed to take breaks from volunteering.
She always told me that she was volunteering on Sundays...
Wasn't she lying to you?
What?
I have asked Emiri once.
About what she did on the days that she didn't volunteer.
What did Emiri say?
Nagareta-san, you work at the police's forensic laboratory, right?
Emiri said that.
No, now I'm a private forensic scientist.
More importantly...
Would you listen to my request?
If you do, then I'll tell you Emiri's secret.
I didn't know that there were private forensic scientists.
Why did you start this?
So that people in a weak spot won't be forced to give up.
Sounds immature, right?
But if we have that kind of place, doesn't it make you feel like
this world is worth living in?
Please hurry and come back.
If this continues, everyone will be separated.
[May 2011]
That's the arson case that was requested over the weekend, right?
You're still troubled over it?
Yes. Excuse me.
Komiyama, Enishi said he had advice for you.
Huh?
What?
Excuse me. I wasn't really able to grasp a whole image of the fire...
Can I ask you one thing?
If it's related to the case, then ask me anything.
Do you know a way to make the hole of this doughnut disappear?
What? That's impossible.
It disappeared.
It's better if you throw away your preconceptions and fixed ideas.
Because it gets in the way of your power to imagine.
Bye.
So you came here Nagareta-san.
Nagareta-san?
[Kibou Credit Union, Kanda Branch Security ID Card ID: F2326145371 Name: Tanaka Hanako] Huh? What is this?
A request.
A request?
[Former employee of Kibou Credit Union embezzles 12 million yen]
It's Kibou Credit Union's embezzlement case.
It happened right after Emiri passed away.
What about this case?
I was made into a criminal.
Made into?
It's a false charge.
I told the police over and over, that I didn't do it.
But my lawyer told me,
"They gathered circumstantial evidence",
"Your crime will get lighter if you admit it honestly",
and I admitted it by mistake.
My lover at the time was my only emotional support.
He told this to me,
that he believed in me and would wait for me.
But, when I was serving my time, his letter replies stopped coming...
I'm sure that he couldn't believe that I was innocent anymore.
I lost everything.
Now I'm regretting to have admitted to a crime
that I know nothing about.
I understand that I can't get back what I lost.
But, no matter what, I just want to let him know.
Nagareta-san, please.
Please prove my innocence.
Please find the true criminal.
Don't you want to know about Emiri?
So it means that if you find the true criminal,
you'll catch some clues about Emiri-san's case?
Yeah.
So that means that we might find something out
about the chief's case too, right?
I'll contact everyone right away.
I'll call them back here again, and have them help for this.
Stop. It's unnecessary.
What? But...
You heard it too.
Komiyama-san and Joutarou both said
that they're "scared to meet with danger".
Well, that's true, but...
This request is my personal problem. It has nothing to do with everyone else.
You don't need to concern yourself with it either.
Are you looking out for me?
Please stop doing that.
As usual, you're naive.
An amateur like you that's good for nothing shouldn't butt in.
When you're here, you just become a burden.
It's a bother. Get out.
At such an age, without any achievements or experience...
We're a prep school for colleges specialising in art.
Teaching others is an important element... - I understand.
[New E-mail Nagareta-san Enter Subject]
[I wonder if the cases that were left behind are alright?]
How's Nagareta?
Anything strange?
Did you forget?
We promised when I told you about Nagatomo's case.
That you'd always report to me on Nagareta.
Nagareta-san is trying to carry all the burden by himself.
He's trying to stay away from everyone.
Why does Kashiwagi-san
think that Nagareta-san is a criminal?
There is a truth in Nagareta's memories that no one else but him knows.
If he, personally, doesn't believe in himself,
why should I remove my suspicions?
Moreover, Nagatomo's case and Chiyoda-san's case are related.
Nagatomo and Chiyoda-san are my colleagues.
Colleagues, huh...
Is there something that even I can do?
Of course.
[May 2012] I will be in your care starting from today.
I'm a 2nd year at Tohto Medical College's Pharmaceutical Department, Matsui Joutarou.
I would like to increase my experience here and after graduating,
I'm aiming to enter the forensic laboratory at the police headquarters, I'll work hard...
Here's the examination data from the past ½ year.
Input them.
I was never able to make the client database.
Organise the receipts too.
Ah...
Evidence for a parent-child examination.
I'll leave the DNA examination to you.
But it's my first day? Isn't it too early for examinations?
At the police headquarters' forensic laboratory, the first ½ year is mostly clerical work...
This is a private establishment.
It's not the police headquarters. - Ah, but...
The clients that come here hold feelings of emergency.
We don't have time to do training.
Remember your work by experiencing it!
You're not here for the sake of your studies.
You're here for the sake of helping the clients.
You're the criminal! Your blood was stuck onto the slide!
No, no more criminal! Sho-chan, you be the criminal!
No! You know, I want to be the forensic scientist!
Stop fighting.
I'm working at the sushi shop today
so I'll bring the leftover chirashizushi for you.
Brother, you're not going to the forensic laboratory?
Sushi can't protect the peace of the world!
No~w.
Allies of justice, forensic scientists!
Okay, I'll be the criminal next.
Yay! - It's a little different though.
Sakurako-chan?
Hey, I have work after this.
I'll leave after I show you where Komiyama-san's house is.
Her house is around here, right? - Probably.
Because I only passed here long ago when I dropped off a drunk Komiyama-san.
Ah. Maybe it's this alley? Let's go see.
Sakurako-chan, aren't you trying to drag me into this
a little by little, someway or another? - Jeez, you're being paranoid.
Please search properly.
Watch it, you old hag!
Hey.. Are you alright?
Were you hurt?
No, I'm alright. Thank you.
Is your house nearby? Shall we bring you there?
No, that's fine. Um, it's the opposite...
Did something happen?
I ended up getting separated from my husband.
He has dementia.
He doesn't have a cellphone either. If an accident happened to him...
That's worrying.
I'll look for him.
I'll help too.
Is it okay? Your work.
It can't be helped. - Thank you...!
Do you know any characteristics or such of your husband?
Uh, what can I say...
Ah, do you have a photo?
Ah. I do.
So old.
I'm proud of it. It's from when my husband was most handsome.
Do you have a recent photo?
I'm sorry.
My husband hates photos...
What are you doing in such a place?
Komiyama-san...
It seems like this grandma was separated from her husband who has dementia.
We're going to search for him.
Um, Matsui-san, anyway, let's go search for him.
But, with such a photo, how will we...
Umm...
Ah! Let's give grandma a piggy-back ride.
No, no, no...
Then, let's do a real-time video chat on his cellphone...
No, no, no... - Does he have a cellphone?
She said he "doesn't have one"... - Please lend me the photo.
How old is this photo?
I think it's about 30 years old or so.
How's his figure, compared to back then?
Taking into consideration that he got older by 30 years
and that he lost 5 kg of weight,
he lost his hair, wears silver glasses...
It's better if you throw away your preconceptions and fixed ideas.
Because it gets in the way of your power to imagine.
It's complete.
How is this?
Wow, it looks like him.
Exactly the same!
My husband get nervous for photos, and his face becomes scary.
But usually, he has a kind face like this...
The impression totally different with this expression.
How did you know what his usual expression was like?
Her husband had smile lines in the photo.
When he was young, he probably could never stop smiling.
Oh, you have a great eye for observing.
This isn't an eye for observation. It's the power of imagination.
You're not here for the sake of your studies.
You're here for the sake of helping the clients.
She was separated from him 1 hour ago.
If we consider his pace and walking speed according to age...
They were separated here, so...
Can you calculate it?
A radius of 700 metres. In the area of Mutsugawa-chou's 2nd block to 6th block.
And then, I'll attach Komiyama-san's portrait
and call out to everyone on SNS.
I think that clues will pop up sooner or later.
Amazing...
Ah, me too.
Okay.
So, let's go. - Alright.
About this person... - No, I've never seen him.
I see. Thank you.
Excuse me.
Did you happen to see this grandpa?
No, I don't know. - Never saw him.
Thank you.
I forgot to say one important thing.
Flashy or brutal cases that the forensic laboratory at the police headquarters deals with
will surely not come to us very often.
However,
But, there are many troubled people with cases that the police won't intervene in.
Excuse me. Do you know this person?
Excuse me!
Um, did you happen to see this grandpa?
Thank you.
[GAKI@0880: Haven't seen him... Yamako@makoto: Shared it, but no response. Moe@baba: Haven't seen him. Hiroki@fujita04: Wanna go search together?]
Kento@noppo3: Shared it, man!! mame@0315: Saw someone similar earlier!! Atsushi@baseboll: Seen near the Mutsukawa riverbed Hiroshi@reggae: I saw him too!!]
Devote all of the power you have for the sake of those people.
As long as you follow that, you can do whatever else you like.
Ah, no good. Nursery school.
Nursery school...
Sakurako-san. - Ah.
They said someone similar was in this area.
No way...
Excuse me! Are you Gotou-san?
Yes?
Ah... Excuse us. We were mistaken. - We mistook you for someone else.
Sorry.
Are you Gotou-san?
Huh?
Ah.. - Ah, we got him?
Grandpa. - Gotou-san.
Thank you very much.
Dear, we're going home.
Thank you.
If the 2 of you weren't here, I wouldn't have found him.
We didn't really do it for your sake.
We can't leave them alone, troubled people.
I remembered something.
That this kind of thing is what this job is about.
That's right.
So, why are you here? - Hm?
Ah! I forgot.
This is awful.
If you do it this way, the analysis will never finish even after a month.
What are you planning to do?
We're going to help you too.
I don't need it.
This is a personal matter.
This is a personal thing.
You as well, please don't push yourself.
Komiyama-san is the one that said "there's no merit in risking my life", right?
Trying to find every fault in a woman, how shallow of you.
Say whatever you want.
Reality is tough.
I was thinking of finding a job with drawing.
Since it was always my dream.
But, at this age, of course it's hopeless.
I realised it.
But, it wasn't vexing, not at all.
However, I felt so lonely when I left this place.
When I was a bank employee, I never felt like my job was fun
or that it was worth doing.
But, one day, the chief invited me to come here.
She gave me a new start.
I came here,
and was fascinated by your talent.
By your peculiar thoughts, by how you shine light on the hidden truths,
that kind of creative talent.
That's why, it's because of the chief and you
that I became obsessed with the charm of this job.
That's why, you have to take responsibility, and work with me.
Me too, after all, I love this job.
What will you do if your family comes in contact with danger?
Honestly, it's scary.
But, instead of showing my little brothers and sisters
that I'm turning away from a job I love, I want to show them that I'm going towards it.
That what I thought.
I definitely won't pull back either.
The chief told me.
That it's fine for me to be here.
Nagareta-san, you have no right to snatch that away from me.
Even if I have absolutely no use, I'm sticking to you.
Do whatever you want!
So, I'll organise the data.
Aren't the preference levels to process it into a really high resolution way too low?
It is. I'll put the resolution up to 3,600 dpi...
3,600?
I'll put each of the colours and tones in the RGB channel...
Excuse me!
Please give me some work too.
Is anything is fine?
Anything.
[Tasaka Shigeru]
[... I'll pray for your suffering.]
Aren't these the people that you arrested when you were in the Juveniles Department.
They send these even now.
Even though you left our home many years ago.
To be resented by people just because you work diligently.
I wonder what's wrong with it, with the way you live.
You went as far as to throw away your son.
There's probably only 1 difference between how people are concerned with others
and how a drop of water falls into a pool of water.
The ripples that are created on the water's surface will end up disappearing one day.
However, the ripples that are born from how people are concerned with others
will never disappear, for eternity.
Isn't this unreasonable.
I'm home.
Ah, Kurumi-chan, welcome home.
What are you doing? - Hm?
That's Maki's, right? - Yeah.
We thought that maybe we'd find something out on the case with it.
But, no matter what number we put, it doesn't budge.
1496.
What?
Ishiguro. That's Maki's first love.
Hm?
I... shi... gu... ro...
Ah.
It opened.
Ah, amazing.
What is this? - I wonder if it's some kind of evidence?

It's Emiri's cellphone number.
