- It's delicious. - It is!
It's so good!
- Thanks for the meal! - Sure.
Wow, you're eating so fast!
Thank you very much.
It's 840 yen.
Okay.
Here's your change.
Sir?
Thank you very much.
Let's go.
Okay.
All the way back.
All right.
- Be careful. - Yup.
How was it? Are you done?
Thanks for waiting.
Good job.
Make way.
Hey move.
- Please go ahead. - Good job.
Let's go.
Yes sir!
Good job.
Thanks for working hard.
I'm Iwata from the East Haneda Station.
Ah thanks.
According to the license,
the victim is Taoka Kouji, 21 years old.
He died from hitting the back of his head on the ground.
There are also traces of fighting.
Little Miss.
I'll find and contact the victim's family.
- Yeah. - Thank you.
There has to be a witness since it's an open area.
Go and ask around the neighborhood.
Yes sir!
What are you doing Itomura?
Ah, good job today.
Oh, don't worry about me.
Timer, Translator: mhaellix
We haven't found his cellphone yet.
There's 1,150 yen in his wallet.
What's this?
This was a bit far from the victim
but it's still new so I brought it over.
- Good job today. - You're late!
I found this stone near the crime scene.
Togashi-san, can you add this to the list too?
This too?
Doesn't it make you curious?
Well, I guess we can investigate it depending on the results from the crime lab...
Is that so? Then I'll send this stone and set of clothes to the crime lab.
- Itomura, before that. - Yes?
Make copies of this.
Huh?
(Recipe book and License)
Can you confirm if he is your son?
We'll have to conduct a postmortem.
So we'll send him back after that.
Dying like this...
How long are you going to bother people?
He was serious about his job.
But he easily gets into fights.
Fights?
Recently he got me too.
Look.
Oh, you were hit by Taoka.
Actually, it wasn't really his fault.
Oh, she's cute.
Your girl?
Lemme see.
Let go.
Hey just let me see...!
What the heck!
Hey, what are you doing?
Hey stop it!!
Hey, what are you doing!? Calm down!!
That Taoka left and quit that day.
I see...
One set of clothes...
Yes.
And this stone's...
What?
All of these?!
That's right.
This stone's English and Japanese name, hardness, place of origin, chemical formula, specific gravity, refractive index...
W-w-wait...
And if there are stories associated with this stone.
Story? This is not a fairy tale!
Listen Itomura-san.
Yes?
We can analyze these set of clothes
but we can't analyze all of these details about this stone!
That's true. You guys aren't experts on stones.
Then do you know of an expert on stones?
I'm not an odd-job man.
By the way, I heard you went on a mixer with a mineralogy lecturer awhile ago.
How did you...
Y-you!!
Please introduce me to her!
- I've forgotten her. - Please please!
- Please! - That's a problem.
Please Muraki-san.
I'm in a crisis!
- I'm the one in a crisis. - Me too!
Are you going to ignore a person in a crisis?
Anything for Muraki-san's friends.
I just have to check for all of these, right?
Yes, thank you very much.
But I do have just one request so I could take care of this...
What would that be?
The email address he gave me kept bouncing.
Can you tell me Muraki-san's email?
I don't think that's a good idea.
I guess you can't do it...
Sure.
Huh?
Really?
Yeah.
No, Itomura-san, that's a bad idea.
Wait, Ma, Mi, Mi, Mu, Mu, Mur...
- There. - Ah... Sent.
Muraki-san! Thanks!
Sensei, you're forgetting something.
Oh, I forgot about that!
Thanks!
- Ah, you're on your own. - What?
You're violating the Private Information Protection Law.
It's all right. It's just Muraki-san.
Well, that's true. It's just Muraki-san after all.
According to autopsy, the estimated time of death is around 8 pm last night.
The cause of death is brain hemorrhaging due to an external wound on the head.
According to forensics, there is evidence of a fight.
They have also reported that the victim died because his head was hit badly.
Regarding the stone we found on the crime scene, we are investigating what kind it is.
- Itomura. - Yes?
- Raise your hand if you're going to say something. - Okay.
- Next, background check! - Yes sir!
The victim started being delinquent in junior high and dropped out of high school.
Last spring, he got into a fight downtown.
His victim suffered serious injuries which took six months to heal.
And he was in jail for about nine months.
He was released about a month ago.
He doesn't have a cellphone
and he moves from one net café to another.
- Does he have family? - Yes.
After dropping out, he lived separately from his family.
He doesn't get along well with his father and brother back home.
His mother died while he was in prison.
- Go and properly confirm all the situations again. - Yes sir.
- How about the victim in Taoka's incident? - Yes sir.
He's in the hospital right now and so his alibi checks out.
- How about legwork? - Yes sir.
We've investigated around the crime scene but we haven't gotten much results.
What about this one?
No one knows anything about that lady.
I have information about that drawing.
With the help of his probation officer, Taoka started working at a construction site in Kita-ku.
He got into a fight with a co-worker because of that portrait and then he quit.
What?
Yes. So that drawing was that important.
But it was crumpled and thrown away.
Did something happen?
Don't think about it. That's our job.
But aren't you curious?
I said...!
Miyashita.
Itomura, you decide the priority for the crime lab but I decide the investigation priority.
Okay?
Okay.
This incident may be between two delinquents
but legwork and background check, don't forget to investigate the lady on this portrait.
It might be related to the case. Got it?
Yes sir!
No... I don't know this young lady.
I can't believe he's still bothering the police even after his death.
You know, I lost my job because of him.
I'm still paying the compensation fees for the victim.
But more than that, we haven't even been forgiven yet.
Detective, because of the incident he has caused,
my wife died last fall because of a heart problem.
We've heard, it must've been hard.
After getting out of prison, he got into a fight at the construction site.
And then he quit.
He even caused trouble for his probation officer.
That ungrateful kid is no longer my child.
That's why you had a dispute on the day of the incident?
Your son came, didn't he?
Your neighbor overheard you and Kouji-san arguing in loud voices.
It was the first time he came after being released from prison.
I don't know why he came, but he had that usual sulky face.
I asked him about his future plans,
then we started fighting again.
Then he just left.
That's all.
This stone was found near the crime scene.
Have you seen this before?
No.
Dad, the police wants to talk to you.
The police are already...
Excuse me. Ah, thank you very much.
- Itomura-san. - Oh, you guys came too!
I'm Itomura, nice to meet you.
- Excuse us for a second. - Hm?
I'm always telling you this but right now...
Ah, I want to ask something regarding an evidence.
Excuse me, this was found in the crime scene.
Was your son an artist?
No.
I see.
I wonder who drew this then...
Are you done?
Do you like to travel?
Huh?
Did you travel with your wife frequently?
What do you mean?
This was in India, right? It's the Taj Mahal.
Ah, it's a picture from our only trip abroad.
Is that related to the case?
Wasn't it great? I've also been to India.
So many recommended it because it'll change your view of life.
I tried bathing in the Ganges river.
The locals use the water to wash their face and gargle.
I did that too.
Then something big happened the next day...
Hey stop it already!!
You two are in a bad mood.
Did something happen?
I don't care if you're in charge of the scientific crime unit but are you having fun bothering us?
We're investigating so that the victims can rest in peace.
We're not playing!!
Remember that.
I can't breathe...
Can't... breathe...
Yasuo.
What happened with Kouji after that?
Stop making me repeat myself. Nothing happened.
I didn't do anything.
Please tell me the truth!
Yasuo!
Give me a break already, Dad!
I heard you were hit by a detective from the jurisdiction?
Yeah...
I told you to stop doing unnecessary things.
Just be their gofer.
Yeah...
Huh? Is that the real thing?
Yeah...
You took that from the police station?
Who drew this...
Why did the victim have this...
I was wondering if there was a way to know those...
You don't want to know who that girl is?
Yeah...
Well, if they found out that you took that
you'll get hit again.
Besides, is that drawing really that important?
The scientific crime unit handles the victim's personal effects.
So we have to be obsessed with them and never handle them recklessly.
Is what someone said.
Okay...
Huh?
This is...
These are lines from a previous drawing.
True.
Which means...?
I just received the stone analysis.
I was waiting for that! Let me see...
You told her my email address, didn't you?
Did she reach you?
You laughed...
Ever since then my email notification just keeps...
Ah, you got mail.
You got mail!
You're so evil...
Ah, Muraki-san!
What about the clothes?
Not yet!!
Of course he got mad.
Why was he so mad?
Let's see...
English name: Carnelian Japanese name: Kougyokuzui, Benigyokuzui
Carnelian is a brownish-red variety of chalcedony.
Normally found in Brazil and India.
Chemical formula...
Huh?
By the way, Carnelian is...
What was it?
What~
Huh? What was it?
Wait! Itomura-san! Itomura-san!
- Good job today. - Hey!
I brought the analysis report for the stone.
Here.
Where's Itomura-san?
He went somewhere.
He's a weirdo.
Maybe it's contagious.
It's not a cold!
Carnelian, primarily found in Brazil and India.
India?
Why?
The Taoka couple's only trip abroad was in India, right?
Ah that's right.
And so?
When I showed this stone to Taoka-san,
I felt that his reaction was weird.
The victim was seen arguing at home and then flying out.
Because of the victim, the father lost his job, and the mother died of worry and anxiety.
He has a motive...
Not this one...
Excuse me.
Did you draw this one?
No, it's not me.
I see.
Sorry and thank you so much.
Excuse me.
Were you the one who drew this picture?
No, it wasn't me.
- Um, excuse me. - Yes?
Do you know of an artist who draws like this?
Ah, I think it may be the artist on the other side of the pond.
There?
Stone?
Yes.
Yes, it was beside their picture.
A stone about this big.
His wife liked it and they bought it during their trip.
Was it this one?
Yes, it was.
It wasn't there when we went before.
Yeah.
How's this?
You're done?
Wow, it looks real.
Well, it is my business after all.
It's 2,000 yen.
Huh?
Ah, even the touches are the same.
You drew this, didn't you?
Who are you?
Ah, well...
I'm one of these.
Well?
I drew that just recently.
The person who asked you was him?
Right.
He said it was a girl he dated before.
He dated her before so...
she wasn't there when you drew this?
Yeah, he was alone.
I just drew her according to what he said.
I see...
W-what...
W-what is it?
So...
about her...
(Taoka Family)
This way.
Thanks for coming.
We know that the funeral service was just finished, so we're sorry.
Not at all.
We asked you to come for a voluntary questioning
because we found your fingerprints on the stone
that was found where Kouji-san died.
And also the fingerprint of your son, Yasuo.
I'm sorry...
I killed my son.
Kouji suddenly came over that day.
Then he took this stone that my wife treasured.
And...
Was this stone that important?
My wife loved this stone...
It's something like a memento.
So you killed your own son?
Yes...
I killed Kouji.
Hey, I heard he confessed.
Yes.
What an awful incident.
Yes but...
But what?
Something doesn't sit well with me.
Doesn't sit well? You can't get to the bottom of it?
The crucial testimony is quite unclear.
Then maybe I should withhold it from the press for now.
It would be appreciated.
Then let's keep calm and collected for now.
I'll leave it to you.
Thank you very much.
Chief.
Maruyama just contacted me.
On the day of the crime, someone witnessed the victim being chased by his brother, Yasuo.
What?
Itomura-san, why?
Their deep fried minced meat is delicious. Want one?
No, not that. Why are you here?
Ah, you know that kid who drew that portrait,
he remembered the victim saying that it's the daughter of the owner of the meat shop near the train station where he used to live.
You found the artist?
I'm surprised that you found this place.
She quietly went to the victim's funeral.
Then why don't you ask her?
I won't say anything.
We're the police.
Do you know anything about this person?
What do you people want?
My daughter has nothing to do with that kind of guy!
Go away!!
Stop it Dad!
What is it?
There's a chance that this person was murdered.
If you had some kind of involvement with him, please let us know.
I believe that that is the duty of the people who were left behind.
My dad was hit by Kouji once.
Hit?
You two dated before, didn't you?
- Itomura-san. - Sorry.
Yeah, I met him last year when he was working at a construction site nearby.
But my dad found out that he caused trouble here and there.
We broke up because of that.
Soon after that, that idiot caused trouble again and went to jail.
Is that so...
Why go to the funeral?
My mom is in the hospital right now.
Hospital?
She's not doing very well...
And then he phoned me on the day he was killed.
I heard that your mom is in the hospital.
I have something good.
Something good will happen if you have this.
Some come, okay?
I'll be waiting at the usual place at 7 pm.
So did you go?
Of course not.
My mom is in the hospital already.
I didn't want things to get worse by meeting up with Kouji.
I also couldn't trust Kouji's words.
He said that he had something good, right?
Huh?
That he had something that will make things better.
Yeah, something like that.
I see.
So when I heard that Kouji was killed, I felt bad leaving things on a sour note.
So you went to the funeral...
You're a nice person.
Ah, that's why he treasured that picture.
Picture?
He got an artist to draw your portrait.
And he had that with him.
Kouji did?
It might become a burden for you
but he was seriously worried about you.
Thanks for your cooperation.
I hope your mother gets well soon.
- Itomura-san. - Yeah.
Ah, one last question.
Do you remember anything else about him?
I remember him saying that he wanted to cook.
Cook...?
Seems like she has nothing to do with the crime.
Yeah...
Ah, an email from Muraki-san.
Let's see...
Oda-kun, do you know of a drugstore in this area?
What?
Where's Itomura?
I don't know.
I'm not his babysitter.
What is this?
We've finished the comparison of 1,752 fingerprints.
Something interesting came out.
I see, it was this smell.
What in the world is it?
Some type of substance was found in the clothes of the victim.
They reported that it was this manufacturer's gel.
Gel?
It probably got there while they were fighting.
The truth is, I smelled the same scent from the kid who drew the portrait.
W-what is it?
It's probably a coincidence. They sell that everywhere.
You know, someone said that there's no detective more useless than one who writes everything off as coincidence.
Where was that guy drawing at?
Asuka Ike Park. This guy.
I'm borrowing this.
Huh?
Wait Oda-kun.
That's my own camera.
Here.
One year and three months for fingerprint forgery...
Excuse me...
What's wrong?
Forensics has just sent word.
The fingerprint that was found in an empty can matched someone on the database.
20 year old Shimada Ryouhei.
They were imprisoned about the same time.
Plus they were in the same prison.
Bring him in as a potential suspect!
Find his whereabouts!
- Yes sir! - Excuse me...
This guy draws portraits at Asuka Ike Park.
What?
Itomura-san said that he was the one who drew that portrait....
I met Taoka in jail.
We had to stop doing stupid things.
And we needed a job.
So I drew portraits.
And Taoka said that he'd study cooking.
After we got out, he checked up on me.
And I drew that portrait then.
- Was it this one? - Yes.
Yes.
He said that she's his ex.
But why did you kill him?
Aren't you friends?
I had no intention of killing him.
It's true!
If he didn't say those things that day, I wouldn't have...
Why so gloomy?
Nothing.
What do you mean by that?
You liked her that much?
Then shall I do something about it?
'Kay?
What can you do?!
How can you talk that way? We're friends.
Friends?
I'm not like you!!
What the heck?! Hey!
Hey!!
Hey.
Hey...
It's... It's... It's not my fault!!
I'll excuse myself now.
I'm sorry for the trouble I caused.
Taoka-san! Excuse me for a bit!
May I have three minutes of your time?
What?
He's tired already.
It's about Kouji-kun.
Just three minutes.
Itomura-san.
There's something that I'd really like him to eat.
Let's not just stand around and talk.
Please come in.
- Okay let's go. - No, Itomura-san...
There was a girl that Kouji-kun used to date.
It's that girl on the portrait.
Her name is Miki-san.
Kouji-san fought with Miki-san's father and so they broke up.
After being released from prison, he found out that Miki-san's mom has fallen ill.
Kouji-kun remembered something, and that's probably why he came here to ask you for a favor.
A favor?
Yes, but considering what happened before
and since he was bad at talking, he couldn't say anything.
Did he try to take the carnelian stone without permission?
Ah, yes.
Come on. Lemme borrow it for a bit.
No! Your mom treasured that!
Just for today!
I said no.
- Please! - What are you doing?
How dare you come back to this house?
What the heck?!
Kouji you...
Shut up!
Hey Kouji!
You're annoying!
Hey wait!!
Yasuo!
What do you mean?
You know, the carnelian is a power stone.
It gives the courage to start something new.
It has a meaning of changing a "minus" into a "plus."
Isn't that right?
My wife said that often.
As long as we have this, the family will be happy someday.
Kouji-kun remembered that too.
He was thinking of borrowing that stone's power to heal Miki-san's mom.
That's why he took it without permission.
But Miki-san never showed up at their meeting place,
and he couldn't give her the stone.
But I think that he seriously believed that everything will work out if he gives her the stone.
Like his mother.
Mom said that if Kouji had the stone, someday he'll be able to get up on his feet again.
She kept saying that until the end.
That's true.
But I didn't think of it that way.
I thought he would just keep creating trouble.
That day, you chased after Kouji and never came back.
So I kept thinking that maybe...
So you said that you did it...?
Yes...
Dad...
Okay then, one cup of red wine, three cubes of soup stock,
one cup of tomato puree, two tablespoons of tomato sauce,
one tablespoon of honey, one bay leaf,
and five cups of water.
What recipe is this?
Beef stew.
That's right.
Actually, the one who taught me this recipe
was Miki-san, the girl in the portrait.
Beef stew?
Mom's beef stew was delicious!
I won't forget that taste.
The beef stew that we ate together was the best...
What's with you?
One cup of red wine, three cubes of soup stock,
one cup of tomato puree, two tablespoons of tomato sauce,
one tablespoon of honey, one bay leaf,
five cups of water.
And...
Plenty of L.
Plenty of L?
Yeah.
That's the secret to Mom's beef stew.
You could say that for me, it's the recipe of happiness.
Everyone will be happy once they eat it.
Dad and my brother loved it.
I wish I can make that kind of beef stew someday.
Then you should hurry and make it for the family you've kept causing trouble for.
I know but...
Someday I'll cook it for them.
The beef stew that will make everyone in the world smile.
It's super good!
Ah, you can have this recipe.
I've memorized it already.
On the day of the incident, Kouji-kun still kept on saying that
he couldn't forget that smell.
That's why he decided to work at a restaurant.
It's my wife's recipe.
One cup of red wine, three cubes of soup stock,
one cup of tomato puree...
In the past, when I get home, I felt relieved when I smell this.
The family gathered and ate stew together.
That Kouji didn't forget mom's recipe.
But there's one thing I didn't know.
"Plenty of L"
L is...
I think it's love.
Plenty of Love...?
Mom would always say...
"The essential secret to delicious meals is adding plenty of love."
Is that so?
I'm sure you've struggled a lot because of what Kouji-kun has done.
But he wanted to get back up on his feet.
That's why he decided to start working at a restaurant so he can let you taste your wife's stew.
He believed that it's the only thing he can do to repay his father and brother.
He realized that a little too late
but Kouji-kun wanted to repay you for your hardships.
Is that so, Kouji...
Kouji...
And plenty of L.
That's the secret to Mom's beef stew.
Thanks for waiting!
Okay then let's eat!
Let's eat!
Kouji, it's good huh?
Yup it is!
Eat lots! Okay?
Beef stew that will make all families in the world smile!
It's super good!
What do you mean three minutes?
There's no way you can cook in three minutes.
I see...
You're right.
Then how many minutes should I have said?
Note: This is Mr. Zaitsu Youichi's last song. Itomura
What about this?
I heard that they helped solve the case.
Did you know someone there?
Ah no.
It was a coincidence.
It was such relief because the center's head, Eto Natsuko, is so competent.
What about it?
Did that lady called Eto say something?
Something?
Something aside from the case.
Aside from the case...
Oh by the way...
The victims can't say anything anymore. So I ask their belongings.
Oh, you say interesting things.
Very unusual for a police.
I see...
Do you know her?
Itomura.
Yes?
It's not admirable to use private organizations.
Avoid interacting with her.
Maybe something happened?
Hey...
I'll fire you.
He was stabbed with a knife.
And there was one card in his suit's pocket.
It's not the handwriting of a man his age.
Are you able to find the location by analyzing that tape?
If you can't prepare that, I'll kill your daughter.
Madame, did something happen?
We'll form a special unit to take care of the kidnapping case.
Chief, you just want us to shut up and dismally observe?
Please don't come back here.
Who is he smiling with?
Why get influenced by Itomura?
I don't know.
I told you not to get involved with a private organization.
I was looking for you.
Because I wanted to know what happened that night.
