Your brother is hiding something.
There have been several incidents similar to what you were caught up in.
Your brother has a list of names that match up with some of those people.

Leave this town as soon as possible.
I'll find a new place for you guys.
You got that, Shin?
No, I don't...
Jun!?

Shin-niichan, morning.
Morning?
You were sleeping past noon, so...
What are you doing?
Look! A treasure!
Class 1-3 Kanzato Shin
Can you believe an elementary-school boy made this?
I-It's not mine!
But your name is...
Geez, where did you find this thing?
Ta-da!
Doesn't she look kinda like Eiko-neechan?
Not at all!
You should look over your answers when you finish a test...
instead of drawing on the back of it.
You!
Oniichan, you're tickling me!
I give up!
Fine, I'll dig out some of your embarrassing things, too.
I don't have an embarrassing past.
Yes, you do. I know everything.
Ugh! You can't get back at me!
The Chief's brother?
Yeah.
But the risk is so high...
It could be key in revealing the truth behind these Reverse cases.
Does such a list truly even exist?
An inhumane series of murders within our jurisdiction...
Then, two students he placed under protective custody were attacked.
He knew the murder wasn't aimed at random people, but specific targets.
Information is getting fabricated and the truth is getting concealed by loopholes.
There's no other way to find out the truth.
...They didn't seem to get along very well.
But would he hand us the information even if he finds it?
He seemed like he wanted to know something, too.
We're not the only people being rejected by the Chief.
What was he up to last night?
Yes. After our regular meeting at headquarters...
Nikaido Eiko Yes. After our regular meeting at headquarters...
Nikaido Eiko
He headed towards the Northern Nippon Inspection Lab.
Probably to check out the Reverse victim from the karaoke bar.
Then... I lost him later that night.
He didn't return to the station until after midnight. Seems he stayed there overnight.
And?
Cerebral and cardial infarction. The organs all seemed to shut down simultaneously.
I detected some mysterious chemical substances.
I'm not sure if it's related to the actual death.
It's being handled just like the Reverse cases.
Is this related to your special mission?
Yeah...
I killed him.
Ooh, I haven't seen this one in a while.
It's us.
You two were so small.
Well, we were babies.
We can be like this again, right?
Dad and Mom aren't here anymore, but... the rest of us can...
Jun...
You're too heavy to ride on my shoulders, though.
That wasn't...
Nothing...
We hung out a lot here.
Yeah.
Dad sat over there, and Mom was painting there...
And you spilled Mom's paint and got yelled at...
"Calm down. You're supposed to be the big brother."
How do you remember all that? You were so young.
It was too short to forget...
You haven't gone to get your check-up this year.
It's fine. Ten years have already passed since the accident.
It's not fine. You have to live for Yuki, too.
Isn't this the picturebook drawn by them?
Yeah...
A Whale's Feather
A Whale's Feather, huh?
This was at Auntie's shop, too.
Yeah.
The last picturebook by Dad and Mom...
Ryo-niichan is back.
Welcome back, Ryo-niichan. Are you hungry?
No. I'm just stopping by to change.
Oniichan!
We haven't eaten together a single time yet.
That's all from Tanaka at the Ayanagi Tulip Square!
Here's a follow-up report on the news of a missing
diver, Akira Sugiyama-san, twenty-nine, at Toyama Bay... I made this during the day. I wanted to surprise you guys.
Diver, Akira Sugiyama-san, twenty-nine, at Toyama Bay...
diver, Akira Sugiyama-san, twenty-nine, at Toyama Bay... I had to guess on most of it, though.
The Ninth Area Coast Guard announced today they will end their search at sunset...
...and continue again at dawn tomorrow.
According to his friend accompanying him on the boat...
Sugiyama-san and his three friends arrived at Toyama Bay around 11am
and began their dive about 200 meters offshore...
Sorry...
I have something I really need to ask you.
Niichan... um... Are you?
Should we... um... Should we not have come back?
No.
I looked these up.
Apartment 70,000 yen
What are these?
You and Jun can decide where. I'll handle the expenses.
Are you?
I've got my own life.
I can't take care of you because of our Aunt's selfish reasons...
You don't have to say it like that.
This is our home, too. Plus, we're...
You two are just trouble to me.
You have to explain this to us.
That's what I'm doing right now.
That's not!
I'll take responsibility as the eldest son.
What else do you need?
...Niichan, I'm...
Shin...
Stay away from me.
Why can't we be close to you!?
Jun, sorr...
It's me.
Sorry, but let me call you back.
Hey, aniki...
Shin-niichan.
Please, don't fight.
Okazaki Takashi Tasaka Yumi
Detective Ito Kunio
Jun, are you still up?
Sorry about earlier.
I ate some of that food... It reminded me of Mom's cooking...
Can I come in?
Jun?
What's going on, Ryo?
The negotiation was broken off.
His death was inevitable.
But a human couldn't possibly...
Fine.
I won't ask.
Were you cold to them again?
I thought you were seeing them during their time in Tokyo.
You really didn't see them for ten years. How thorough of you.
"Leave this town now..."
I wish someone told me that, too.
Niichan, Jun is gone.
I can't find him anywhere!
Where are you now?
You could've gone.
Sorry.
This feather!
Shin!
N-nii...
I saw a girl.
She gave you that feather?
See? It looks like that whale's feather Jun has, as a memento of Yuki.
Why did you come for us?
Plus, those passwords... like, the lock numbers for the entrance...
You think we're trouble to you, but you still use our birthdays as...
It's just an old habit. There's no other meaning behind it.
So why did you come here?
I told you, I'll take responsibility as the eldest son.
It's not just because of Auntie.
I wanted to change things for Jun.
He... was being harassed at his school in Tokyo.
Sometimes, he says strange things... or acts differently than the others, so...
He wants to get along with you, too.
That meal he made tasted just like Mom's...
During the day, he went and dug up old photo albums in the atelier.
He was staring at the cover of A Whale's Feather.
A Whale's Feather
A Whale's Feather?
What's this story about?
It's about how all the people you love can become happy.
Hold onto this.
What is it?
A whale's feather.
Dad and I call it that. It's a charm we found by the sea that brings happiness.
When you have an important wish, return this to the sea and pray. Okay?
Jun!
I can't hear Ryo-oniichan's voice...
But...
Hello, Detective?
Sorry to bother you so early.
I searched through my brother's room, but...
I didn't find anything.
Omotai kusariwo The heavy chain

ikanaideyo "Don't leave me"

Stolen silver dreams.
A melody kept unreachable.
Tomorrow will never be woven.
Only the unknown is visible.
A heart of water quivers, shakes.
A choking cry is all that is heard.
I am your way back to the sea.
