Good morning.
Is there an incident? Shall I go, too?
It's a request from the main office.
Back up support for last year's stabbing murder of a police officer in Hachioji.
We're leaving.
Mr. Aoshima, you have a phone call.
The traffic division is having a drinking party tonight.
I'll give you a map later.
Please share this.
Hello, this is Aoshima.
It's dangerous in the police department.
Be careful.
A woman... 45 years old... is targetting you.
Who are you?
Section Chief...
What is it?
I just got a strange call.
It's a common incident.
The reception area received this.
It's for Mr. Waku of the detective division.
Don't scare me!
Mr. Waku, there's a box for you.
Be quiet.
I'll put it over here.
Invite them...
You decide on the time.
I'm leaving it here.
You're Aoshima!
A woman...
45 years old...
Come here.
What is it?
I said come here!
Just come with me!
I'm using the interrogating room!
Why don't you get some insurance?
I understand you're a detective.
Protecting the citizens with your life is a respectable job.
If you're staking your life, you should consider the worst circumstances.
Look at this.
Tulip Relief Course. It's a civil servant type insurance
for people like you. If you are killed in the line of duty,
we'll pay 50 million yen. Please sign here.
Let's formulate your retirement plan together.
Unfortunately, I already have insurance.
Cancel it!
I have to examine it very thoroughly.
Misfortune occurs without warning.
You can't wait until something happens. It's too late.
Please look at this...
We had an injury report. Let's go!
Please excuse me!
Wait! Sign...!
I have work to do.
Who is she?
She's an insurance solicitor, scarier than a detective.
She keeps after you until you buy insurance.
She sure was scary...
"It's dangerous in the police department."
"You're being targetted."
Was that phone call from you?
I won't say anything bad. Just read it.
Aoshima!
I'm coming!
ODORU DAISOUSASEN The Spirited Criminal Investigative Network
Ep. 2: An Express Package of Love and Revenge
This way.
It really is hard work, everyday.
What's the matter?
His hair was cut off while he was eating.
Who did it?
That person...
Your hair was cut by another woman.
It must've been painful.
Please arrest her!
Did you cut his hair?
Yes, I did!
Why?
Because he dumped me.
Let's go back.
You're right.
Please arrest her!
I don't have time to be tending to your strange hobbies.
Prosecute her!
Do it if you want to!
Are you going to file a complaint?
Of course!
Take the young lady to the department and question her.
Me?
I'll leave it in your hands. I don't understand the situation.
I'm counting on you.
Let's go.
Please come, too.
I did some back research.
How did it go?
I showed a picture of the witness to the man
who sold me the army knife, and he confirmed the identity.
Send a report to the main office immediately.
Do it in your spare time, between studying.
My father sends his greetings.
The district head?
Section Chief...
What's your report?
At a restaurant fronting Kaihin Park, a man's hair was cut.
The victim wants to file a complaint. I brought the suspect in.
You're exaggerating. Let go.
I don't want to do this either. I'm using the interrogating room.
Isn't there anyone else?
I can do it myself.
A woman must be present.
When you investigate a woman, a female officer must be present
or you may be charged with sexual harassment.
It occurs frequently.
Sumire...
I'm working.
Please be our witness. We don't have any women in our department.
Please...
Will you treat me?
Okay.
- Negotiations are complete. - Let's go.
Your name?
The abandoned woman.
Stop joking around.
That's appropriate for me.
She's pressing him...
Your name!
Sasaki... Noriko!
Address!
Do you want to come to my place?
Hey!
You can't get angry. It'll cause problems if there's a trial.
What is your relationship with the victim?
Like I said, he dumped me.
Did you two have a relationship?
Five times a week...
You were dating...?
Sex!
You don't have to write that down.
I know! Stop pestering me.
I'm leaving.
Please...
What should you treat me to?
You cut his hair in retaliation for being dumped.
That's right.
Why his hair?
He's very proud of his hair and treasures it.
Hair is the life of men...
What will I be charged with?
She changed the outer appearance of a person,
that's an injury. She used a scissor, that's a violent act.
It's an injury and violent crime.
Can't you do anything without her?
I'm capable.
What's wrong with retaliation?
Men think women can't retaliate, so they treat us badly.
That's why I did it!
What's going to happen?
I know a good lawyer called Takaoka.
Wait a minute.
I don't have that kind of money.
Aoshima, release her.
The victim will withdraw his complaint.
What?
Good work.
It wasn't much.
Don't exaggerate it into a big incident!
That's why I hate the police!
Police bear grudges...
But...
You're treating me tonight. I'll decide on the place.
I'll be glad to.
It's difficult bearing grudges.
I'm sorry for all the trouble. Please excuse me.
Young man, please buy insurance. I have a good program.
I'm going to the bank.
I'm leaving.
Mr. Aoshima. This is the place we'll be at.
It'll start at 7 PM.
We'll be waiting for you.
Mr. Waku... money...
I don't have any.
Someone from the Metropolitan Police
Department 1st Investigative Section is here.
Is Waku in?
Tell him I'm not here.
He'll know right away.
Mr. Waku, I'd like to speak to you.
Are you recommending me for the superintendent general's position?
What is this? Who left this here?
It came for you. I told you earlier.
For me?
Isn't it something suspicious?
Superintendent Muroi is a busy man.
This way.
You know this man?
Yamabe Yoshikazu, 25 years old.
I'm sure you've met him before.
Let's see...
He's being questioned as the primary witness
for the Hachioji police officer murder, last March.
Murder of a police officer?
How is that related to me?
Three years ago, when you were at the Hachioji
department, you must've questioned him once.
It was the incident where an instructor was raped
in the research lab of the college that he was attending,
which resulted in an injury.
That guy...
He said he was studying physics in college.
What kind of questioning did you perform?
I remember now. He used difficult words,
theorizing everything and spoke to me in a very ridiculing way.
Were there any illegal interrogating done?
Well... I may have grabbed his clothes and kicked the chair.
He was a real smart-aleck kid.
We don't allow that in this department.
Is he filing a complaint that my interrogating was illegal?
The murdered police officer also conducted
a violent interrogation for an earlier traffic violation.
He was murdered in retaliation.
What is it?
I made reservations. It's nearby.
I've always wanted to go there. The time is 7 PM.
How about tomorrow?
If you don't come, I'll shoot you.
What are your plans today?
Thank you for the other day.
It's you...
Aoshima. It's the same last name as the governor of Tokyo.
Superintendent, I will meet with the chief...
What is it?
We, who worked up the ranks, have lots of things to talk about.
Stories of trials and tribulations that you wouldn't understand.
Are you working on a job?
No, nothing in particular.
Take Superintendent Muroi to the Metro Police Dept.
Leave it to me.
Did you come to investigate a case?
I wanted to talk to Mr. Waku.
I see.
About the last case...
The case where the company director was murdered.
We verified the confession and took the suspect to the prosecuting attorney's office.
I read about it in the newspaper.
It's just...
I was wondering how the victim's daughter is doing.
Answer me...
You asked the same question last time.
Is there a problem still pending?
No, the case is closed.
About what we just talked about...
If you are a detective, forget about it when the case is closed.
Otherwise, you won't be able to deal with many cases.
The victim's family will receive a compensation.
If you have any business at the hospital, please give this to her.
Thank you for driving me.
I'm coming in.
How are you?
I felt I had to apologize, so I came to see you.
When we questioned you, it was a difficult time,
immediately following your father's death.
Yet, we ignored your feelings.
The police weren't only thinking of arresting the suspect.
Please allow me to help you.
Are you from the police?
I didn't come here to investigate.
Why are you here?
As a family member of the victim.
It was just her father and herself, so...
I'd like to talk to you.
Ms. Yukino still can't talk.
Will she recover?
The condition of her illness is loss of the ability to speak.
It's a condition where the patient temporarily loses the ability to speak.
When a person discovers the corpse of a family
member at the crime scene like she did,
the psychological shock normally creates inactivity.
A loss in the ability to speak is very rare.
That means...
I think there's another reason for her loss of speach.
Like what kind of reason?
Please tell me.
It's just an example...
She may've been keeping a secret from her father
and agonized about disclosing it to him.
However, because of his sudden death,
she'll never be able to disclose the secret to him.
The shock was so great that she lost her speach.
Of course, it's just my deduction.
Doctor!
Goodbye.
Ms. Onda!
We're doing a big bust of the pickpockets near Shinagawa Station.
Could you go as backup?
We don't have enough women.
I'm in a bind. I'm not getting enough nutrition.
I'm eating a grand meal tonight.
I understand.
Goodbye.
Can't you talk on the phone with the receiver under your chin while you work?
What is this?
I think it was for me.
It says health chair.
It's from Section Chief Hakamada.
It's a present from the section chief.
You know, it's for your lower back problem. He bought for you a comfortable chair.
The section chief did?
That's eerie.
Will he expense it?
Shall we open it?
Let's open it!
I'm back.
What are they doing?
Everyone! This is a present from our subordinate caring
section chief, for Mr. Waku's lower back problem.
It's magnificent!
Please try it.
Go ahead.
I have to thank the section chief first.
Don't be silly.
We opened it already. Just sit in it.
What is it?
There's something hard under me.
What's this?
What are you doing?
Section Chief, thank you very much.
For what?
You bought this chair for Mr. Waku's back problem.
I did?
Come on, now. Don't be shy.
Why do I have to buy a chair for Mr. Waku's sake?
Didn't you send it?
Then who did?
This looks like the safety device pin for a hand grenade.
Please excuse me.
It really does.
Let me see it.
It looks exactly like the one we saw in weapons training.
Don't say eerie things.
It vibrates...
That's right...
What are you doing, Aoshima?
I just...
What's the matter?
It's expensive.
Stay still!
What are you doing?!
What is it?
There's a hand grenade... under your seat.
What?
There's a hand grenade behind your back
and it's connected down to the seat of the chair...
I think if you try to stand up, the device will be triggered
and it'll blow up.
Then...
Are you saying there's a bomb under me?
This is Onda of the Wangan Police Station.
Could you please send the bomb squad immediately.
This can't be...
Are you all right?
You people aren't worth anything.
We understand that taking shelter is the correct action.
I'll remember this.
If something happens to you people, I won't save you!
Section Chief, it's your phone.
Tell them we're in the middle of an incident...
And that we're busy.
Hello, detective division.
This is Superintendent Muroi.
Calm down and listen.
The suspect of the police officer murder has confessed.
That's not all.
He went after Detective Waku, too.
There was a large container delivered to Detective Waku.
There's a bomb embedded in that chair.
Do not open and sit in it!
He's already sitting in it.
Convert this line to speaker phone.
Who was it?
Superintendent Muroi from the Metro Police Dept.
Give him my regards.
Section Chief Hakamada sends his regards.
Did Mr. Waku blow up?
Not yet.
I bought an American military MK2 hand grenade in the Philippines.
When it explodes, a surrounding diameter of 15 meters will be destroyed.
As long as the safety device pin is not removed, it'll be fine.
Do not remove the safety device pin.
It's been removed.
Even if the pin has been removed, if he doesn't
stand up, the device will not be triggered.
If he stands up, everything will blow!
Did you hear that?
The bomb squad is making its way there.
Wait until the bomb squad arrives.
Please hurry!
Who are you?
Aoshima.
You again?
Mr. Waku, the bomb squad will be here soon.
Please don't move.
I should've gone to the bathroom earlier.
Mashita! What are you doing?!
Mr. Aoshima, please use this.
Thank you.
I was thinking... can't you put the safety device pin back in?
Mashita! Get back here!
Don't worry.
Let's try it.
If something should happen to you, I don't know how
to apologize to the district chief!
Young master, take shelter!
I understand.
I'll tell my father that you were a great detective.
Don't kill me off, yet!
Don't move! It'll eplode!
I'm returning the safety device pin.
The wires are in the way.
He mustn't touch the wires.
Why?
When the wires touch each other, it'll change
the voltage and an electrical surge will set off
the fuse to explode. It's been electrically set up that way.
Don't touch the wires.
Did you touch them?
I can't move anymore.
What are you doing?
Run away!
I made reservations for 7 PM.
This isn't the right time!
You're right.
Hello, this is Onda. I have reservations for 7 PM.
May I change it to 7:30 PM? Thank you.
We'll definitely be there.
I'm counting on you.
Aoshima?
Transfer it to speaker phone.
We made drinking plans... and I'm waiting.
I'm sorry. He's doing overtime work tonight.
Please tell him to come as soon as he's done.
Well... I made plans to go drinking...
At a time like this! There's a bomb under me!
Why did this happen?
Yamabe, the guy who murdered the detective, is retaliating against me.
Retaliation is a scary thing.
Detectives bear grudges...
Is Yamabe at the main office?
I think he is.
I want to talk to him.
What are you going to talk about?
I ruffed him during the interrogation, 3 years ago.
I'll apologize.
Hello...
Apologize?
Detective Waku wants to apologize to you.
If he apologizes, I'll tell you how to de-fuse the bomb.
Then he'll be able to stand without any explosion.
Are you leveling with us?
If he apologizes on his hands and knees...
Let me speak to him.
If you apologize you can stand up.
This is Waku.
It's been a while, Mr. Waku.
You weirdo! Die! I won't apologize to you!
I should've killed you then!
It's a joke... A light joke...
I can't forgive a detective killer!
He killed a detective colleague of mine.
We still don't have the killer.
I'm sorry. My name is Onda. I have reservations for 7:30 PM.
May I change it to 8:00? Thank you.
- Cancel it! - Don't move!
I have to go today, no matter what!
Today is Tuesday.
Where's the bomb squad?
We're stuck in traffic on Rainbow Bridge.
There aren't any detours.
What's the matter?
My back is killing me.
My fingers are numb, too.
I want to move my body.
You can't! I'm suffering, too.
You don't know what it's like to have rheumatism.
- I know. - You're a liar.
I lied. I don't know what it's like.
It's because I was a detective for 30 years.
I'm almost retiring... and here I am sitting in this chair.
There's a bomb under my seat, so I can't move!
It'll be a great memory of your 30 years...
No it won't!
It hurts!
- Are you all right? - No, I'm not!
Please hold this. A neighborhood grandma gave it to me.
I know 3 men who were killed in the line of duty,
holding an amulet.
Let's talk about something.
It'll take our minds off the situation.
What shall we talk about?
I have regrets.
- What is it? - If I die...
- When you die... - I said "if"...
I know.
I want you to marry my daughter.
Okay. What?
My daughter's quite a handful.
She's 35, and has never had a relationship with a man.
That's very charming.
She looks exactly like me.
A wild-type...
I want her to get married.
Okay!
I can't make a promise.
If you die, I'll probably die with you.
Besides...
What is it?
Ms. Sumire...
What is it?
You haven't resolved it yet, right?
You confided in me, and yet I was so busy that
I couldn't be of any help to you.
You don't like to be alone on Tuesday, right?
I'm sorry for yelling at you at a painful time.
Are you from the bomb squad?
I told you! What a dangerous act!
I told you to buy insurance!
Buy insurance!
What's with this place?!
Why weren't you the first one to run away?
Why didn't you run away?
I didn't want things to happen according to the villain's plans.
Aren't you scared?
I am.
But I believe in the authority of justice.
Don't ever say the word "justice" until the day you die.
Keep it deep inside your soul.
Criminals hold grudges against detectives.
Someone had a grudge against me this morning.
That doesn't mean you should hold a grudge
against the criminal. We mustn't do that.
Our job is not to hate each other.
It's a job to help each other.
I can't stand it anymore! I'm standing up!
The bomb squad has arrived!
We will begin evacuation!
Take him away.
Will I be executed?
The trial will determine that.
Even if I live, I won't retaliate against you.
You were a gentleman.
You're different from the lower detectives.
It's done!
There are no injuries!
Everyone, disband!
Mr. Aoshima, it's Superintendent Muroi.
Are you all right?
Yes, I managed.
I'm glad there weren't any more victims.
We seem to team up quite often.
Perhaps we may make a good team.
I cancelled the reservations.
Aoshima, I want a report.
What is it!
We'll still make it to the restaurant.
I haven't run after a suspect, yet.
You're right.
I feel like a detective.
Someone!
What's the matter?
Yukino has disappeared!
Let's go to another restaurant.
I like this place!
But...
You don't want to be alone on Tuesdays...
Take me somewhere.
What is it?
About what Mr. Waku said...
What haven't you settled yet?
On Tuesdays...
Return to the station?!
I'm going to ignore it.
Don't you want more excitement from work?
I do.
I'll see you tomorrow.
