lt looks like you don't intend to talk voluntarily.
No, l want you to know this.
...funds comparable to the annual budget of the U.S. military...
lts location is the secret hidden in those rings.
240 billion dollars?!
Are you saying that l don't love Mother Russia?
Hey, yeah

We can only expect the maximum effects from truth serum for about ten minutes.
That will be long enough.
Now...
What's your name?

Yugo...
The Mystery of the Rings
The Secret of the Rings
You know a lot about the Romanovski rings, don't you?
Excellent!
Now, how did you know about the message hidden in the rings?
When l figured out...
The cargo...
Prince Romanovski sent...
What about the cargo?
When l figured out...
it was gold.
And that gold bullion was deposited in a Swiss bank?
l reasoned it out...
And l was sure...
The gold...
Was in a Swiss bank...
The access number...
The prince inscribed the number on his ring.
Yeah... The access number...
ls sixteen digits...
But there are thirteen numbers total inscribed on the two rings.
That's three digits too few.
Alone, your organization will never be able to solve the mystery of the rings.
Now that l've met you l'm certain of that.
Because it's a mystery anyone who loved Russia could solve.
You and your organization don't love Russia.
Why? Why are those three missing?
The design is the key... to filling in... the missing digits...
What is this message in the design? You'll tell me, won't you?
Well?
That's right. Hurry up and tell me.
l don't...
l... don't... know.
l don't... know...
There's no need to hide it from me.
You should know the answer.
l can't... tell you.
What?!
Stick him!
Administering any more alkaloids to him will have no further effect.
His life could be in...
That doesn't matter. lnject him.
How do you feel?
Now, Yugo, how about it?
Do you feel like talking about the message?
lt looks like you're willing to talk now.
ln the end, you're only human.
Even you can't win against the power of those drugs.
Though l guess l'll give a few points for withstanding them this far.
The ri...
Come on, keep going. Tell me everything you know.
l kept... thinking... about the rings' message.
And...
And you arrived at an answer.
You did, didn't you?
Mustn't... arrive... at an answer...
Things l think... will stay in my memory...
Memories... can be brought back...
There's danger... that when l'm caught... l'll be forced to confess...
You can't mean...
So... before l figured it out... l stopped thinking...
He's unreal.
There's no way you could've done that!
Spill it! What are you hiding?!
Give him another shot.
lt's dangerous to use any more truth serum!
lnject him.
Please wait!
Your Excellency,
l believe there may be no point in urging someone with no memories to confess.
lnstead, what if we attempted to make him arrive at the answer?
You're telling me to make this man continue his thinking?
Yes, Ma'am.
He's already gotten partway to his conclusion.
But do you think this man will just obediently comply with our demands?
Yes, Ma'am. l feel as if l understand his words.
Would you leave it to me?
l trust you understand what will happen if you fail?
Thank you, Doctor.
l don't see anything the matter with him.
lt's amazing that he's alive. His body must have been made to order.
Yugo...
lt looks like you're awake.
ls there anything you'd like?
l'm thirsty.
Okay...
You slept two whole days.
Why don't you get down to business?
You didn't kill me back there,
and now you're really giving me full-service care.
You want to get me to arrive at the answer, Captain Elenova.
You don't understand how much Russia needs the Romanovski legacy right now.
You've at least seen the market since you've been in Russia, right?
lt's true that compared to the way things once were, we've become wealthy.
But those are all things that have been illegally imported.
You can't find goods produced in Russia anywhere.
No matter how many legally imported goods there are,
they're so expensive that most people can't buy them.
That's what Russia is like now.
Even this very winter, how many people do you think are starving?
ln this cold...
lf they can get rations, they can survive, even if only for awhile,
but there are people who can't even get that.
So...
You're telling me to decode the rings' message.
Please!
ln order to save Russia's situation, we need the Romanovski legacy!
l can't think that it will be saved just by having money.
Whose fault is it that inflation is so bad?
Why do prices keep on getting higher?
The ruble is worth several hundred times less now than it was only a year ago.
Why?
Right now, l don't...
When the former leaders of the Communist Party acquired state-owned property,
they chose to make their payments over a span of 20 years through a long-term installment plan.
Even if they are former party leaders, that's not a sum so easily paid.
Even if the value of the ruble changes,
the amount of principal to pay off doesn't change.
ln other words, the more the ruble goes down, the more cheaply they're buying their property.
lt's like purchasing something with scraps of paper.
They're continuing to pay off the state property
with mountains of rubles that aren't even worth enough to buy a slice of bread with.
They got the land, the factories and the banks that way.
When they use that capital to begin making money, this inflation will improve.
Are you telling us to wait until then?
What l'm trying to say is that the Romanovski legacy mustn't be given to people like that.
They're responsible for the corruption and the chaos.
The Romanovski money would never be useful to Russia within their system.
You might be exactly right.
But people worried about whether they'll be able to eat tomorrow
don't have time to worry about those things!
This isn't a logic thing.
Yugo, if we have the Romanovski legacy,
we can save more people!
Let me talk to Major General Garrachova alone.
Captain Elenova is as impressive as ever.
The Captain will arrive here momentarily with the negotiator.
When they arrive, put them in separate rooms.
Yes, Ma'am!
Father, you were a great man. l am here thanks to you.
l will get the Romanovski wealth, and Russia's steely order will...
l'll reorganize the military efficiently and restore order to society.
lf order is restored, the workplace will stabilize, and pride will return to the laborers too.
Russia will reclaim her former glory, and...
Russia will become the great mother country once again!
Captain Elenova has arrived.
All right, l'll be right there.
l'm happy we have the chance to discuss things calmly.
lt looks that way, Your Excellency.
Let's cut to the chase. Tell me.
Before l do,
would you tell me how you first got information about the Romanovski money, Your Excellency?
lt was when l was a Lieutenant Colonel and the commanding officer of the Khabarovsk Division.
l assume you know of Commissar Mukhin?
Yes, the highest-level commander of the Siberian District during the Revolution.
Precisely.
There was a period when l was carefully rereading Mukhin's notes.
According to the records,
in 1919, Mukhin personally saved a boy in the midst of a small battle.
And he raised that boy like his own child.
That boy's name was Vladimir.
Yes, Prince Romanovski's second son.
But Mukhin was a cold man with a heart of stone.
How do you know that?
There's a meaning behind the fact that he raised that boy.
That's why you were interested in Mukhin.
A heartless man would never raise someone else's child with loving care.
Exactly.
l sensed that there was some reason for it.
l gathered the records and investigated thoroughly.
You remember them, don't you?
Those were the records l replaced with blank pages.
l'll recover the $240 billion Romanovski fortune and use it as funds to rebuild Russia.
l believe that to be my duty.
Now, next it's your turn to talk.
Tell me what the three missing numbers are.
Before that, l have some conditions.
Nadezhda lvanovna Pavletskaya...
lt looks like you want to remove her from this country no matter what.
l'm executing Sergei Alexsandrovich Romanovski's will,
because that's my business.
Very well.
Thank you.
The deal has been made.
Now, tell me. What's the message hidden in these rings?
Well?
The three-digit number!
l don't know.
There's no way for me to tell you what l don't know.
