What the hell, old man!
It feels bad.
The clinic's closed for today.
I'm sorry.
What...?
It's you...
Hello.
A Million Stars Falling From the Sky
Episode 9
There you go.
You should stay.
What?
Stay overnight.
I'm back.
Welcome back.
It got late.
I'm sorry.
Sorry.
Why hand this in at a time like this?
Yesterday's...
incident at Yuraku-cho...
I did it.
You...
- I'm sorry. - What are you saying!
Anyway, I'll keep it.
Maybe he caused a fight while drunk yesterday night?
Is that so?
Please...
wait for your transfer
before causing any more trouble.
Really!
- Morning. - Good morning.
What's wrong, Kan-chan?
Nothing.
Dead?
Right, the cellphone.
That's why Ryo-san said
sorry about the movie.
He's all right?
Yes, but his fever hasn't subsided.
He's at home now?
He's not at home.
No, actually...
Appendicitis...
It's appendicitis, that's why he was hospitalized.
So...
he went to the hospital because he thought it was a cold,
but it was appendicitis.
It worsened and he got a fever.
That's why.
Delicious, isn't it?
That fellow...
Ryo...
Did he contact you?
I stabbed him...
because he didn't keep his promise.
I stabbed him.
The police...
I retired.
I gave my resignation...
because I stabbed someone.
That fellow...
He said
he wouldn't meet you...
Brother, I'm sorry.
That guy...
For him...
that's the only thing...
I could do...
to protect you from him.
Father!
Hold it.
Sealed up memories often resurface after an incident like this.
If it goes well, you'll find out the truth.
If it doesn't go well...?
You'll be stuck with vague memories.
Finding out the truth doesn't necessarily make you happy.
There are many things in the world better not known.
There are a lot of things like that in your life too, right?
You came here after being stabbed in the stomach.
It's easy to see
your life is not good.
You can say that.
There's no need to write about this.
What, the patient card?
A medical record is a person's dark side.
I can perceive
all types of lives.
Doctor, how long do you keep the documents?
The wound is healing,
so he can leave the hospital soon.
Is that so?
Thank you for calling.
Do you have something to tell him?
No, that's okay.
Goodbye.
Yuko.
What is it?
Your favorite TV show is starting.
That's okay.
Really?
Right, I intend to make udon for supper.
How about it?
Okay, I'll come soon.
Okay.
I'll be waiting.
I was nearby, so I came to see you.
That sounds like a lie. Sorry, it is.
My top five...
How about watching them together?
- Where? - Your house.
You seem to be a bit heavy-hearted.
I got a call from your brother.
This is a secret from your brother. Please don't be angry with him.
I'm sorry.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Am I not the right person?
Am I... not the one to ease your mind?
No, that's not it.
Well, is it...
about that person you told me you liked.
Such an honest person.
I didn't hear anything from your brother.
I just thought, because you mentioned it before.
I'm sorry.
Sorry I told you such rude things.
Oh, you remember now.
I thought you forgot about me light years ago.
Your expression was like that,
when we met at the front door.
You were thinking, "I thought I'd never see this person again."
It was that kind of expression.
I'm sorry.
What an honest person.
Very refreshing.
I'm sorry.
But...
I...
I thought we'll definitely meet again.
Sorry, I won't say anything else.
I wanted to try saying that once. Please forget about it.
Well, shall we watch the videos?
All right, it's going to take a long time today.
First, we can see them all through.
And after that,
I'll comment on them.
Well...
This...
- Here you are. - Thank you.
- Come again! - Yes.
- Welcome! - Good evening.
- Aunty, fish for me too. - Okay.
Here's the oshibori (wet towel).
You're well already?
No visit or at least flowers?
Why didn't you tell...?
Tell what?
The police.
It's a bother.
Here, eat this while you wait.
Thank you.
You didn't bring your gun along, did you?
It's not good to shoot without warning.
Itadakimasu.
You know...
I'm not kidding.
That should be my line.
Don't make me laugh, it still hurts.
Right...
About Yuko...
you remember Kusaka-san?
They had a blind date
at your restaurant.
They're back together again.
They look happy.
He has a house in the suburbs.
I hope they will
live a happy life there...
with a few children...
He's such a nice person.
She's not that young anymore.
Is that so?
Please tell your sister...
What?
I wish her all the best.
Aunty, I don't need it after all.
You haven't prepared it yet, have you?
Sorry. Thanks for the seaweed.
Good night.
What's with him?
I see.
He said, "I wish her all the best."
Is that so?
And,
that he won't go to Tanuki anymore.
Why?
I don't know.
He looked pretty energetic.
Don't worry about me.
I won't go there anymore.
I won't go anywhere
where I might see him.
You're packing up?
There's still things...
What will you do after you quit?
I was thinking I'd open an udon shop.
No good?
If that's what you like...
How nostalgic!
This...
This was taken
- when I first joined the force. - How young.
Koto-chan, I was pretty popular then.
Pretty cool.
But,
after this...
A few months later...
That thing happened.
It turned my life upside down.
Kan-chan...
Maybe not.
Maybe somebody else
could be fine after something like that happened.
Shall we go for a drink?
You...
Hello.
I'm Kusaka.
What is it?
Well...
Stabbed him?
He never told the police.
He said it would be a bother.
But this way he'll learn his lesson.
Because I said I wasn't kidding.
They won't meet again.
There isn't anyone who wouldn't cherish his own life.
Kan-chan.
I stabbed someone.
When it concerns that person, you start acting strange.
You said something weird the last time.
You said he has a burn mark,
so could he be that boy from 25 years ago.
Somehow it bothers me.
The matter of that boy from 25 years ago...
After quitting the force,
we won't be able to meet like this anymore.
Yeah.
Come to think of it, I've known you for a long time.
It would be good if you
liked me more.
What are you saying?
I like you.
More!
More...?
I'm not happy...
Or maybe not...
Kan-chan,
Let's go to another bar.
What?
Why not?
Let go.
It's okay, isn't it?
Why?
I'm back.
Welcome home.
You took a bath?
It's still hot.
I'll go in a while.
You went drinking?
With Koto-chan.
It was a date!
It wasn't anything special.
Right,
Weren't you meeting Kusaka-kun for a date?
Yeah.
We had lunch.
Is that so?
Want some water?
Thank you.
Dojima-san, call for you.
Thank you.
Dojima here.
You went to REVE?
Well... Maybe I'm being a busybody.
He said... he doesn't have the right to go out with you.
I don't know what he means.
Yuko-san...
He said...
he's going somewhere.
I think he's setting off this evening.
Why don't you go see him?
After your work is finished...
Regret is...
a very sad emotion.
No matter how hurt you feel,
you should be honest with yourself.
And wouldn't it be good to confirm things?
Is that also from...
some movie?
It's the story
of my love for Yuko-san.
Although I've already been spurned...
But...
frankly speaking, I think this is a good thing.
Kusaka-san...
A tamed bird
cannot live alone anymore.
I told you already.
A heart once held closely
cannot live alone anymore.
Once it has been touched,
please keep holding it.
I...
Even if you killed someone,
I...
I will try to understand you.
If I try a little,
I think I'll understand you.
If it's about you...
I was
scared...
I didn't know what would happen.
I didn't know what would happen if we slept together.
I was scared.
I felt...
as if...
something might be destroyed,
so I was scared.
That thing.
If that thing had never happened...
Is there a lake nearby?
Lake...
There's one near the mountain...
25 years ago?
Yes, that's right.
It was probably 1977, right?
That boy who was sent here in that year...
Yes.
He was burned.
Burned?
His name?
Sawada Shougo.
Sawada Shougo-kun.
Are you sure about this?
Yes.
How old?
5 years old.
I don't think it's here.
Father!
Just like I thought, nothing.
Is that so?
But what's going on?
Lately, somebody claimed
he had been hospitalized here when he was young.
He wanted to see his patient card,
but we couldn't find it.
What was the name of that person?
His name?
What was it...
Just a moment...
This person.
Katase...
Katase... Ryo!
