My brother has amnesia! He can't remember anything!
I completely understand your method of winning at Memory.
Do Mi La Re...
Nakagawa Masaru is not the murderer.
Did you do it?
The real murderer is somewhere in here...
Do Mi La Re...
C minor...
E flat major...
This case just got huge!
Nanba-san, please take a look at this.
That's it. The Do Mi La Re...
...it's Ha Ho I Ni.
What? Ha Ho I Ni?
[Yagi Hitoshi]
- There! Yagi... - Shh.
Thank you everyone!
The Do Mi La Re...
...are...Ha Ho I Ni.
What do you mean?
Sasa-san!
Sorry...excuse me...
The results are unbelievable.
The results of the DNA from those bones...
...it matches that of a murderer from serial killings in Den'enchoufu, Tokyo 5 years ago.
What?
5 years ago...
Den'enchoufu?
Please find out what happened 5 years ago on July 2nd.
At the time, the detectives were able to collect samples of the murderer's DNA...
...but they didn't have a primary suspect, so the cases have remained unsolved.
This is a reconstruction of the murderer's face based on the bones.
Excuse me!
Those cases...
...they were 5 years ago...in what month?
You figured out the code, but what will you do now, Tsukumo-chan?
This isn't enough to prove anything.
We'll find the proof!
Forensics is investigating Yagi's trunk right now.
If they find traces of Kinoshita-san's blood in there, it's all over.
What's going on?
Kinoshita-san was killed somewhere else...
...and then dumped there. We've just found that out.
And, on the night of the murder...
...it's very likely that Yagi went to Masaru-san's atelier...
...carrying Kinoshita-san's body with him.
Then, all that's left...
...is a confession.
How did you guys figure out...
...that it was Yagi?
The memories still exist.

So...
What did you want to talk about?
We've figured out who killed Kinoshita-san, so...
...I just thought we should tell you about it.
But...
...why would you take the trouble to tell me?
Yagi-san...
...you're the murderer, aren't you?
What?
We know that your car passed near here on the night of Kinoshita-san's murder.
You brought the body here in an attempt to place the blame on Masaru-san, right?
Sometimes...
...when I can't think of any new song ideas...
...I go for drives, by myself.
- That's right. - But...
...to say I'm the murderer because of it...
No, no...
You see, Masaru-san writes music every day.
...but here and there...they're missing.
That's because you stole them, didn't you?
Do you have any proof of that?
Oh. Oh! I do.
Your CD.
This Piano Sonata #4, Reminiscence...
When Masaru-san heard this piece...
...he said it was like stars were falling over a lake.
The stars are falling...
...above a lake...
Look at this.
August 8th, 2006.
With Nee-san at a lake. Boat.
The stars are falling.
It's exactly the same.
And the sheet music from this day...
...has disappeared.
What of it?
Masaru-san left his experiences of that day in his music.
You stole that music and released it as a piece of your own.
That's why...
...when Masaru-san heard this song...
...he recalled those experiences.
For Masaru-san, music...
...is the memory of his emotions.
All I can think is that it's a common coincidence.
Then, you're saying...
...you didn't kill Kinoshita-san...
...and you didn't steal Masaru-san's music. Right?
Of course.
That's strange...
Are you sure you didn't just forget?
Then, just in case...
...let us test your memory.
Challenge me in a game of Memory.
If you win, I'll concede that you are not the murderer.
So, if I lose, then I am the murderer?
Yes.
- All right. Let's play. - Okay.
In that case...
...here we go.
You're spreading them that much?
Well, since we're playing...
Let's use the whole room to play.
This looks good too...
And... Oh!
I'll put one here too.
Okay!
Now then...let's get started.
In order to be perfectly fair, I'd like everyone else to leave the room.
Quickly.
Oh! Um...but...
Um...
He's a huge fan of yours...
...would you mind shaking his hand?
Oh, in that case, would you...
- You don't need to shake his hand. - Ow, ow, ow!
Quickly!
Now then...would you mind if I go first?
Be my guest.
Hmm...first, the piano...
What's wrong?
Then... It's my turn next, right?
All right... That's the last one.
Sorry to keep you waiting everyone.
Oh! Shall we count the pairs then?
I don't want to believe it, but...
...I lose.
Well then... This means I'm innocent, doesn't it?
With that...
Um...well...
If you persist...
...I won't be picky in my methods.
I'm sorry. I'm not explaining well.
Actually... The test starts now.
All right, this question is for everyone.
The room before...
...and the room now...
...there is one spot that's different.
Where is it?
Are we playing too?
- Of course. - Oh dear, oh dear...
...why are you making us do something this dumb?
- Hmm... - Where could it be?
Oh!
Yagi-san, would you like to look too?
No. I have somewhere to be.
Oh!
I figured it out!
The sheet music...
...it's missing.
Correct!
The sheet music on the music stand is gone.
I'll put one here too.
Yagi-san.
Will you bring it out please?
Oh. Unless you have some sort of rebuttal?
On the night of the murder...
...Masaru-san hurriedly wrote the murderer's name in his music.
At the time, you...
...didn't realize that this was something that pointed to your name.
Hey, what did you write?
Um, I...
You probably don't remember...
...but you did this.
Go on.
Write it down so that you don't forget.
June 8, 2009. Atelier.
I killed him.
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do
In Japanese music notation...
...it's Ha Ni Ho He To I Ro Ha, isn't it?
I wrote those readings above the notes.
Do Mi La Re...
...becomes Ha Ho I Ni.
But this isn't "Ha Ho I Ni..."
...it's Yagi Hitoshi-san, isn't it?
While you were playing Memory...
...you realized that this pointed to your name.
You panicked, and hid it.
But...think about this...
...that's like a confession saying, "I'm the murderer," isn't it?
After all, to anyone but the murderer, this is just a simple Do Mi La Re...
...just a simple Ha Ho I Ni, right?
You...
...were a brilliant composer, weren't you?
But you exhausted your genius, and couldn't write music anymore.
But you couldn't forget your former acclaim.
Your memories made you a criminal.
Um...
Will you tell me one thing?
How were you able to steal Masaru-san's memories?
That's the only thing I can't figure out.
You've just opened Pandora's Box.
Pandora's Box?
The box that musn't be opened...
That's it!
Tsukumo-san!
Yes?
What?
This is the man who was killed, who was responsible for serial robbery-homicides.
Of course...It might not have anything to do with anything, but...
This it where it started, huh?
Yagi-sensei was the murderer?
Oh. I knew it. You thought...
...that Masaru-san did it, didn't you?
- Well, because... - No.
When you saw the scene Yagi-sensei had set up for you...
...you made the mistake of thinking that Masaru-san had done it.
Then, you...
...in order to cover for Masaru-san...
...you desperately tried to act as though you were the murderer.
Am I right?
What about the note?
Yagi had him write it.
I see...
It was Yagi-san.
Now...
...we'd like to continue with a different case.
His name is Nishizaki Minoru.
His circumstances have been unknown for the past 5 years, but...
...the other day, his bones were found.
You know this man, don't you?
Yagi used this to threaten you...
...so that you had to keep giving him Masaru-san's music.
Yagi told us everything.
I did it.
That day, 5 years ago...
...I went to the atelier...
Masaru had gone for a walk.
I knew that I should have told the police, but...
...he wouldn't be able to live without me.
That's why...
...I cut the body up...
...and went to get rid of it, in many different places.
But one of the times...
Are you all right?
After that...
...I had no choice but to do what Yagi-san said.
Yagi-san...
...began releasing my brother's music as his own.
It's a beautiful song, isn't it?
Yes.
It was frustrating and painful, but...
...Masaru...
...he didn't know anything. He looked so happy as he listened.
That was the only thing that made me feel better.
What happened with Kinoshita-san?
He...
...was a truly wonderful person...
...he even accepted Masaru.
But...
...when he found out I was being blackmailed by Yagi-san...
I murdered someone!
If it goes to court...
...I will protect you!
We argued about it a lot.
Masaru might have seen that...
...and thought that Kinoshita-san was a bad person.
He...
...went to talk to Yagi-san, alone...
...and was killed.
Yagi...says the same.
Does he...
I...
...how many years will I get?
The one who killed Nishizaki...
...was Masaru-san, wasn't it?
No. It wasn't.
I did it.
Masaru-san...doesn't know anything?
That's right.
I went to the scene alone...
He didn't see the scene and he doesn't know anything.
That's what I've been saying!
Then why does Masaru-san...
...when he plays the song he wrote that day...
...start hyperventilating?
I'm the one that did it.
Masaru-san protected you, didn't he?
Whatever the result may have been...
...the fact that Masaru-san protected you...
...isn't that the truth?
Shut up!
You bastard!
Masaru!
Do you want to make that a lie too?
I'm so glad...
...he has amnesia...
...Masaru will...
...forget all about this, won't he?
I don't think he'll forget.
Humans, well...
...things that have happened...
...things from a long time ago...
...they forget them, don't they?
For example...um...
...a person you fell in love with...
...you forget their face or name...
...what you talked about...
...what fun you had together...
But...
...if you actually happen to run into that person again...
...you just sort of light up, you smile.
You remember the feeling...
...of loving that person.
That happens because...
...you see, besides the brain's hippocampus and cerebral cortex...
...there are lots and lots of hidden pockets where memories pool.
The memories of being loved by someone, of loving someone...
...the purest emotions are buried in the deepest part of the brain, the limbic cortex...
They're locked in there.
...so that they'll never ever be forgotten.
That's why...
...he won't forget.
You don't have to try to make me feel better.
That's not what he's doing!
Masaru-san...
...the Pavane for a Dead Princess...
...he was playing it with such a gentle expression on his face.
The composer of that pavane, Ravel, eventually suffered from a damaged memory.
But...
...afterwards, when he heard his own music he said...
"This music is exquisite."
"I wonder who wrote it?"
For Masaru-san, the Pavane for a Dead Princess...
...is you, his older sister!
So...
...you are...
That's why...
You are eternal.
Am I...
...really?
What's wrong?
- I'm going to sleep. - Huh?
Please go back without me.
Then I'll sleep too.
Huh?
You do have your interesting points, don't you?
Just as the piece in E flat major reached it's climax...
In that moment...
The Do Mi La Re revealed itself...
...and you whispered it, right?
"Ha Ho I Ni"
How did you know?
We've heard it every day for a week!
I've told this before?
Quit your yapping, jerk.
When he heard about the bleached bones, in that moment...
"...ding ding ding!" it went...
...his right brain went off, right?
Tsukumo's turned this place into a Mystery Club.
You say that...
...but you got one of the coolest parts!
It's not like I wanted to.
The results just ended up being case-breaking.
The results?
It seems the Tsukumo virus is spreading.
Ah...well...but...the biggest challenges...
The Metropolitan Government has sent you all a request.
The government?
Making advancements in scientific crime detection known to a broad range of people...
...also helps serve to inhibit crime.
The charms of IPS...
...it's greatness, and...
...it's fearsomeness.
Go make us appealing on every level.
You there. The person stealing the bananas.
You're going too.
Please!
Listen to me!
Th-there wasn't a-any malice in it...
F-forgive me...
I'd love to study Akiyoshi Kanako-san's brain.
The victim in a kidnapping case 15 years ago, Kanako-chan...
...Akiyoshi Kanako.
There's a bomb.
Help me!
...it might be multiple personality disorder...
At the time, the current victim, Matsushita Yuriko, was Akiyoshi Kanako's homeroom teacher.
This could be a disaster!
Hey! Did someone put this blanket here?
It was like this when we arrived.
It seems the murderer did it.
The murder weapon?
We don't have the gun...
...but we can recover the bullets so we should be able to find out the specifics.
What's this?
It seems that the murderer ate it after killing the victim.
You're saying the person killed someone and then ate a meal here?
That takes a lot of nerve!
Any DNA?
We're running it now.
Got it.
It looks like a .45.
Forty-five?
Why are you saying it in English, moron? Stupid punk...
This might be a case of execution with a gun, huh?
Hey. What's wrong with you?
Um...
A-actually...you see...
...my grandmother collapsed yesterday...
I was wondering if I could be excused from this case...
You... You were looking up and to the right really hard, weren't you?
Huh?
- Are you lying to me? - What?
What are you talking about?
To identify the volatility of various materials...
...generally, we take a sample of the explosive itself...
...other times...
...we'll take those samples...
...and break them down into smaller components to be analyzed...
All right! Everyone who was sleeping!
You missed that, right? That's too bad...
After all, I just set off a bomb before your very eyes!
Shall I do it again?
This is sort of an aside, but the assassin who shot President Kennedy, Oswald...
...was actually, through a lucky mistake in the fingerprint analysis...
For example...
...from a kidnapper's voice on a phone call...
...we can predict the person's build.
And, conversely...
...even without actually having heard it...I can hear your voice.
...in my dreams...
Then...by using the N-system, you can even tell where I am?
That's right. If you're having an affair, you'll soon be found out.
Everyone's really good at this.
You understand, don't you, Tsukumo-san?
Hm?
You're not allowed, even by mistake...
...to leave the stage and speak to people at this distance.
Don't worry. I've got a great experiment set up for today.
And...please be careful to watch your language.
- You can't just... - Calm down...
Relax...have a beer.
Natsume-san! We're on duty!
Don't worry about it.
No one's going to tell Sasa-san.
You should drink!
If one person is uptight, no one can relax. Right?
That's right.
Here you go. Have some.
In that case...just a little.
All right. Here you go.
There you are.
I feel a little calmer now.
- Really? - That's good.
Can I have another?
Drink up! Drink up!
Which means...the human brain...
...is very easy to fool.
Now, I'd like everyone to participate in an experiment with me.
Are you ready?
...yes...
You don't sound very excited...
Are you ready?
Yes!
All right. Let's begin. Music...
...start!
When did that guy put something like this together?
All right... Now, words are going to appear on the screen behind me.
I'd like everyone to read those words in a loud voice, please.
Ready?
The first word is...
...this!
Red.
Correct!
Brilliant.
Let's move on.
The next one is this!
Black.
Correct. The next one is this!
Yellow.
Very good. Next is this!
- Blue. - Red.
You said "blue" just now, didn't you?
If you said "blue" too, please raise your hand.
Oh...excuse me...sorry...
You see...
Even if you intend to focus on the meaning of the word, the color surrounding it...
...captures your attention, rendering you incapable of making a proper judgment.
This is what we call...
- ...the Stroop Effect. - I have to use the restroom!
I'm going to burst...
Moving on...
...when the human brain sees something...
...does it recognize it by color, then shape?
Or...does it recognize it by shape, then color?
In order to examine this, I've prepared a really fun experiment.
I'm gonna burst.
I made it!
Tsukumo-san's doing pretty good.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Yo.
How is it?
But...this is the Ladies' room...
You finished setting up the bomb, right?
Yes.
It's set to explode in 15 minutes.
All right...
I'm sure the police will be surprised.
For a bomb to go off in the middle of a public lecture by IPS...
I'm sorry!
Aw...what's going on?
Please wait just a little longer...
I think the results of the experiment will be out shortly.
Until then, let's play a game together, one that helps activate the brain...
Right now...here in this auditorium...
...there's a bomb!
Everyone, please evacuate!
Hey...This isn't a lie!
There's actually a bomb here!
Huh?
What?
As you can see...the experiment was a success.
Indeed.
Just as I explained earlier, the human brain...
...depending on the situation...more than shape...
...it recognizes color first, as this just proved.
I was helped by my assistant...
...Yuri Kazune-san.
- What's going on? - Hm?
What's going on?
- What's going on? - Just wait...
Thank you.
What's going on?
- What's... - Look...
What's going on? What's going on?
What's going on?
Look... Ready?
Before this started, I took the bathroom signs...
...left the symbols the way they were, then made the Men's red, and the Ladies' blue.
When you saw the red, you immediately decided it was the Ladies' room.
- See? See? - I'm so embarrassed!
"Gentlemen."
I'm so embarrassed...
Then, afterwards, I had Kanda-san and Natsume-san go in there and talk about planting a bomb.
When you came back to the presentation...
...the experiment was a success. The human brain, depending on the situation...
...will make judgments based on color instead of shape. That's what you showed.
That's so unfair, Sensei!
Using someone as an experiment... It's unforgivable!
- Wait! - We can't understand a word you're saying!
Can't hear you!
We can't hear you!
Louder! We can't hear!
[If you can eat 10 plates in 1 hour, it's FREE!]
5 seconds left!
I wonder what was wrong with Namikoshi-san...
What's wrong?
Huh? Nothing...
I just saw someone...she was like a blank slate, like she needed help...
Oh... You mean she was really gorgeous.
The murder victim is Tokyo Assembly member Matsushita Yuriko, age 44.
We believe the murder weapon was a .45 caliber handgun.
It's an old model...
...it's what gangs would have carried 20-25 years ago.
Is there anything else that might identify the murderer?
From the bento that the murderer ate at the scene after the murder...
...we were able to collect both fingerprints and DNA. They're being analyzed now.
Th-the fingerprints and DNA...
...they're both from the same person.
Report.
Yes, sir.
Excuse me...
They've both been matched...
...to Akiyoshi Kanako, who was 10 when the samples were taken.
Akiyoshi Kanako?
Hey...by Akiyoshi Kanako...you couldn't possibly mean...
Yes. Kanako-chan, the kidnapping victim...
...Akiyoshi Kanako.
She was proclaimed dead...
...but this means that she's alive.
And, the murder victim, Matsushita Yuriko...at the time...
...she was Akiyoshi Kanako's homeroom teacher.
Akiyoshi Kanako, who was kidnapped 15 years ago, and never found, is alive...
...and executing the people she was close to?
If all you look at is the evidence, that's what it seems to be.
What's going on?
Please request full support from IPS.
15 years ago, on June 6th, around 3 pm...
...a girl went missing from an elementary school in the metropolitan area.
[15 years ago, June 6, 1994]
The police opened an investigation...
...and they searched diligently for any sign of Akiyoshi Kanako's whereabouts...
...but they were never able to find her.
And now...
...that girl's fingerprints and DNA...
...have been found on the victim's clothes, door, and even on the bento left behind.
Bento?
Yes...huh?
She ate a bento?
You got hung up on the bento?
So...the bento that Kanako-san ate, what kind was it?
You need to find this stuff out in advance!
It's just from a convenience store. We think the victim bought it in the neighborhood.
Well, but, there's a lot of different kinds at a convenience store, right? Like...
...Japanese hamburger, or nori and mentaiko...
...or pilaf...
It's that one, you know, just a regular one...
...a maku-no-uchi!
Maku-no-uchi? That means there were a lot of small dishes, right?
She ate it all?
Can we continue the report?
I really think...
Well...
...it's an unsolved case, so...
...um...all the evidence from that case is still in storage.
Because she was missing, Kanako-chan's fingerprints and DNA were entered into the database.
That's how we were able to get a positive match on this case.
Which means the victim's become the assailant.
The suspect, Akiyoshi Kanako...
...is in possession of a gun.
We don't know what her motive was in this murder...
...but we can't say that she won't attack someone else.
We must bring her into custody as quickly as possible. Every second counts.
- That's so strange... - This is imperative!
Namikoshi-san.
Yes, ma'am.
I'd like you to be the leader of the investigative team for this case.
Huh? M-me?
Akiyoshi Kanako's missing 15 years...
What did she do during those 15 years? Where was she?
I believe that investigating that will take a great investment of time.
The only information that we currently have at our disposal...
...are the traces she left at the crime scene.
From that, we will have to build a detailed picture of the suspect, Akiyoshi Kanako, as she is now.
And...make a prediction as to what she may do next.
The only one who can do this is you, with your study of behavioral science.
- But, I... - With that...
...I ask that you apprehend the criminal as soon as possible.
Dismissed.
- All right. Let's go. - Yes, sir!
- Rinda-kun! Rinda-kun! - Yes?
About the bento...
The bento again? Look...
Tanbara-san...
Look you!
H-hey...stop...
From these pictures...
...you want me to estimate what she'd look like 15 years later, right?
Yes.
As people get older, the most noticeable thing is that the face elongates...
Right...
I'm Akiyoshi Kanako.
I'm 10 years old.
Take...
...the syllables...
...and compensate for age...
As a child grows into an adult, the distance between the vocal chords and the lips grows too, so...
I love the big blue sky.
A little higher...
Higher. Higher. A little more.
There! Right there.
According to the GSR results...
...the perpetrator was about 1 meter away.
It's also consistent with the bullet wound in the victim's right leg.
It's consistent with the angles of both bullet wound.
So the eyelids were closed afterwards?
If they closed naturally at the moment of death...
...the conjunctiva should be completely clean.
But we found dust in the victim's mucous membranes.
So after the victim died, someone closed her eyes?
We don't have any concrete proof, but...
We're taking prints. Make the preparations.
Yes, sir.
If we can pick them up, we can prove that it was the murderer that did it.
Taking prints from a body is impossible!
And too much time has passed!
How did you...
It's the oils.
In her terror, the victim excreted large amounts of sebum.
That oil held on to the fingerprints for us.
Oh! Namikoshi-san!
The data from recreating the murder.
- Oh... - Anything else for us to look into?
- Um... - Hey, Namikoshi!
Hm?
We found out that the murderer took the trouble to close the victim's eyes.
Does that help get you closer to the murderer?
Closed the victim's eyes?
Yeah.
Nothing... It's fine.
Not, "it's fine." Say something!
No, really...
You can tell us!
You're the lead in this, after all.
I am, aren't I...
Is there something important about the bento?
What reason could you have for taking the time to eat a bento in the same place you've murdered someone?
Maybe because you're hungry?
Oh...hungry. I see.
Oh, I understand...
Otherwise...
...you wouldn't eat at the scene of a crime, right?
But, you know...
When humans are in an excited state...
...usually, large amounts of dopamine are excreted in the brain...
...because of that, you don't feel hunger.
That's true.
When you're immersed in something, you forget you're hungry, right?
Hayashida-san?
Huh?
Yes...
Is something wrong?
Aren't you scared?
...of this case...
Well, yes, it's scary but...
I think Takegami's case...
...for me that was...
But... T-that time was a knife, wasn't it?
This time the murderer has a gun!
Did you just say the gun?
Yes?
It's the obento!
What?
Isn't the obento scarier?
Oh...you just don't get it, do you?
Oh, but...
...I would love to study Akiyoshi Kanako's brain.
What are you thinking?
I don't know...
Where are you now?
When I figure it out, I'll call you.
Hey.
I'm sorry.
Akiyoshi Kanako might not be alone...maybe.
You mean she might have an accomplice?
Woah! Up there?
What are you doing, Namikoshi-san?
Help me!
Huh?
Please!
The more I read the harder it is to understand.
What on earth was Akiyoshi Kanako-san thinking?
You feel that way too, Tsukumo-san?
Yes.
But, for now, let's use Natume-san's data...
...to re-enact Akiyoshi Kanako's movements.
Okay!
I'll be Akiyoshi Kanako-san.
And you...
...can be Matsushita Yuriko-san.
Okay!
- Take off your shoes. You might slip. - Okay.
Let's see...
First, Akiyoshi Kanako-san...
...took aim at Matsushita-san from a distance...
Okay, I'm aiming...
Please...don't!
Please don't!
But she shot her left leg.
Bang!
Ow...
Akiyoshi-san could have killed Matsushita-san here, but...
...she didn't.
That's right.
Then, Matsushita ran, trying to protect her left leg.
Right.
- Not like that! - Huh?
You've been shot!
And...run.
Can't you put a little more feeling into it? Just a little?
Yes. That's better. Now, run away.
She chased her into the main office...
P-please...
...listen to me...
And this time, from about 1 meter away, she shot her right leg.
Bang!
Ow!
Next, she raised her right hand in some sort of gesture, and was shot.
- Right hand. Right hand. - Okay.
- Bang! - Ow! Ow...
Then, with both legs and her right hand shot...
...she tried to run away, and headed for the door.
Okay. That way. That way!
- Crawl! - Crawl?
Crawl. Crawl!
That's good.
Then, from behind, one shot in the back.
Bang!
Akiyoshi Kanako...
...when the victim had finally reached the door...
...she shot her in the back of the head.
Bang.
That's a really self-important way to kill someone, isn't it?
Yes.
If the goal was to kill, then you wouldn't do it like this.
So, then, the murderer's goal was to make the victim suffer before killing her?
Next, the blanket, right?
Oh. Yes.
Akiyoshi Kanako-san...
...after everything else, she placed a blanket over Matsushita-san.
What... Is that important?
If you would explain?
From a criminal psychology standpoint...
...the act of covering a body with a blanket...
...shows a desire to grant the body some dignity...
...to give it a proper burial.
And, according to Nanba-san's report...
...Akiyoshi Kanako's fingerprints were found on the body's eyelids.
Eyelids?
It means that she closed the victims's eyes.
This is also highly indicative of a respectful, ceremonial treatment of the body.
And there's also the bruising on the arms, right?
Bruising?
There is bruising on both arms.
Sensei!
It's possible that Akiyoshi Kanako...
...held the body, shook it, leaving those marks.
And we found traces of Akiyoshi Kanako's bodily fluids on the victim's clothing.
Why would you find fluids?
Maybe she sat, holding the body, and cried?
Like...as if...
Come back to life!
...screaming that and crying?
Afterwards, she probably...
...closed her eyes and placed the blanket over her, right?
Yes.
Her actions before and after the murder...it's like she was a different person.
What she did after that is even more of a puzzle!
Akiyoshi Kanako went into the next room...
...and ate a maku-no-uchi bento, like nothing was wrong.
That's why you think there was an accomplice?
She wasn't alone.
I think the chances of that are very low.
You see... The DNA and the other traces, they all match...
There were 3 murderers.
But, what proof do you have?
There was only 1, but there were 3...
In short...
...within a single person, there are 3 different people.
You mean...
Yes.
Akiyoshi Kanako...
...might have multiple personality disorder.
You're done, huh?
This is...
Akiyoshi Kanako.
Dissociative Identity Disorder is a very rare medical condition.
The chances of that are very low...
No, I think they're very high!
W-why...
...why now?
I'm Akiyoshi Kanako.
...age 25.
We didn't do anything!
If that's true, then, if we don't catch her soon...
...this could be a disaster!
Because I wanted to see the sky.
There will be a 2nd and 3rd victim.
It's been determined she has multiple personality disorder.
[Beautiful berzerker with multiple personality disorder]
Let go of me!
It's a choice between heaven and hell...
[Will the end be Heaven or Hell?]
You mean it will be impossible to predict her behavior?
Let me go!
What is that girl thinking?
I'm the guy that killed them.
I don't know yet.
Why?
She wasn't there. The girl that I saw...
It was a crime of revenge.
I'll look into it.
No matter how painful the truth...
Help me...
The likelihood that she has multiple personality disorder...
Tsukumo-san!
There's only one answer.
