18 years ago, my brother, Lawyer Eto Takayoshi, died from a knife stab.
I wouldn't be surprised if you think that it's just my assumption.
But the silver spoon was definitely there.
We'd like you to come to the station as the prime suspect.
Why would I kill my baby's father?
The first suspect was Takami Kyouko-san, my brother's girlfriend.
Because the murder weapon was found in her apartment's garden...
That knife had Eto-san's blood.
No...
But the next day she committed suicide.
When the case was over and I asked for my brother's personal effects...
The silver spoon wasn't there.
Police?
I'm really sorry.
18 years ago, the silver spoon was definitely seized as one of the personal effects.
And it's his fault it got lost since he was in-charge.
I don't know what Yamazaki said but there was no silver spoon at the crime scene.
Your eyes were deceiving you.
I think you should admit that a personal effect had disappeared.
Lying is bad.
Do you know anything about Chief Saeta-san?
He cares for his subordinates and he loves dogs.
Dog...

Yes?
Huh?
All right.
I'll see you tomorrow.

Sign: Pako's Grave
The victim is South Tamagawa Satation's Chief Saeta Osamu.
And I don't know the details
but division one's chief was at the crime scene.
What? The Chief was?
Miyashita's group, proceed straight to Chief Saeta's house.
Roger. We'll head to Chief Saeta's residence.
Oh...
- Good job today.. - Yeah.
- Please and thank you. - Okay.
We're bringing him in.
Be careful.
Here's the sheet.
Okay.
Damn.
I'm sorry but your name please.
Good job today.
Eto-san?
You know her?
Yes.
Nameplate: Saeta
Was the Chief single?
At the end of last year, I heard him say that he's bringing his mother to an institution.
Hm...
Hm?
Itomura! Why are you here?
Oh, don't worry about me.
Oh, you're here, Oda-kun.
Do whatever you want.
I will!
Okay, excuse me.
Hey, good girl.
Hm?
I see, so you're Lila.
Lila, Chief Saeta passed away already.
I guess you don't understand...
Hm?
"Pako's grave"...
Sign: South Tamagawa Police Station
Hey!
Please tell me why you were at the crime scene.
Remember Saeta looking weird before?
Hey.
Ah...
Aren't you exhausted?
Ah no, not really.
I got worried about him.
So we decided to meet up and talk.
And the moment he saw my face, he jumped off the building.
The moment he saw you?
That's right.
- Good job today. - Hey...
Come here.
How's everything?
Good job today..
There's a pressure mark on his upper arm, something like a defense injury.
A broken chain was found in the crime scene.
- Itomura. - Yes?
- Chain. -Ah, yes.
Let's see...
It's this one.
What is it?
There's something like a flute.
- What do you think? - Don't know.
Then I'll send this for analysis.
Timer, Translator: mhaellix
Osamu died?
Yes.
Does he have any other family aside from you?
Did that kid... commit suicide?
Why do you think that?
Ah, I just somehow felt that way...
He was very considerate of other people.
So maybe he got tired of it or something...
Did her son visit her lately?
I don't think he's visited lately.
Then has anyone else visited her aside from her son?
Are you Chief Saeta's mother?
My condolences...
I'm sorry about my timing but...
May I ask you a few questions about dogs?
Chief Saeta said that he's kept a dog for some time now.
He started keeping one...
when my grandson was born.
It was so my sickly grandson can have someone to play with.
Yes...
Ah, do you know anything about this?
No... I don't know anything...
I see...
He was a quiet person.
The day he brought his mom here too...
To be honest, it's best for families to stay together.
Just because you can't take care of her anymore, getting rid of her is just...
Please and thank you.
He came once a month.
But I've never seen him properly converse with his mother.
He has a good reputation in the station and no one can think of why he would commit suicide.
I saw Saeta jump off the building.
In short, I'm saying that it's suicide.
I don't know anything else.
Or are you saying that I pushed Saeta off?
Then escalate this case, leave it to the inspectors.
I can't do that.
Then prove Saeta's suicide.
Then this case will be closed.
Okay, we're pulling out.
Yes sir.
Please wait!
Sone, can I talk to you?
Okay...
Find the silver spoon around Saeta's surroundings.
Chief Saeta's?
That's right.
So you're admitting that 18 years ago, Eto-san's eyes weren't deceiving her when she saw the silver spoon at the crime scene, right?
Saeta apologized...
Right in front of me.
There's something I'd like to ask you.
It's regarding the case 18 years ago.
Chief...
I'm very sorry...!
I'm very sorry!
What do you mean?
Tell me.
Saeta!!
Saeta!
Saeta!!
Saeta started acting weirdly
when Eto Natsuko appeared before us.
Why did he apologize to me and then jumped off the building...?
Once the silver spoon is found, then that mystery will be solved.
I'll publicize this case once that happens.
But...
If it's not found, then you won't publicize it.
Chief.
What?
If I say this, you might threaten to fire me again.
But you probably think that the silver spoon doesn't exist anymore, right?
See, you're making that face again.
But please don't forget that you promised to publicize the case once it's found, okay?
But where and how do I start looking?
It's your job to find personal effects.
Yes.
Oh by the way.
Let's see...
Chief, you can have this if you'd like.
This is a Chinese tea that I'm always drinking.
It's good when you're pissed off.
Then please excuse me.
Have a good night.
The young ones are making a fuss,
Sign: Chief Saeta Osamu
but division one has decided that there's no case.
- Got it? - Yes.
There's no doubt that Chief Saeta himself jumped off the building.
All right, Chief Saeta committed suicide.
Division one's job is done, you're dismissed!
Let's go back to the headquarters.
Please wait!!
What?
Is it over?
Even if it was suicide, then what was the reason?!
Until that is proven, we shouldn't close this case!
Unfortunately that's not our job.
- Chief, Chief! - What? Hm?
I'm sure that the case 18 years ago has something to do with Chief Saeta's suicide.
To just end it here...
So what? He committed suicide.
The reason is none of our business.
But...
Stop complaining, this isn't our only case.
Little Miss.
I'm not a Little Miss.
Cool your head off.
Not everyone can become like Itomura.
I guess not...
Hm?
I guess I won't find it easily...
Give this to her.
Hm?
This isn't Lila.
Hm?
Sign: Murder Division One
I'm not comfortable with how this case ended.
I understand why the jurisdiction is not satisfied.
Right Miyashita-san?
What's wrong Miyashita-san?
Hm?
Good morning!
Good morning.
There we go...
What? You're going to work with a dog? How rude!
Hey hey, you're putting on a front again!
But always putting on fronts is...
Hm....
A former police officer was killed and then the Chief commits suicide...
Of course the press will make a ruckus when we say there's no relation.
Come here.
There's Okano-san, Kouryuu-san, and Sakuragi-san.
Good morning!
Come here.
Stay here, okay?
Itomura-san, I investigated that flute-like thing.
What do you think it was?
- A dog whistle, right? - Huh?
See?
Oh... Dogs have good hearing...
I couldn't hear it at all.
You're amazing.
"You're amazing...?"
Making people investigate randomly...
By the way,
Muraki-san gave me the analysis results.
Oh, grazie.
It was determined to be Chief Saeta's by the DNA from the saliva.
And it had minuscule traces of feldspar and iron oxide.
So that's how it is...
Good job today.
Huh? Satoru-kun!
I'm planning to take the police officer's employment exam.
Oh, then it'll be three generations of police officers.
My mom was happy when I told her.
Once I become a police officer
I'll drink with this cup,
in front of my father's grave.
I see.
I'm sure that he'd be very happy.
Oh, then I should give you a congratulatory gift.
Ah, no need...
Here it is.
Here you go.
Division one's belt.
Thank you very much.
Just a bit more!
Ah, finally.
Ah, hello.
Um... You are...
I-I...
Itomura-san!
That's right!
Is there something you need?
Is your mom home?
She is, come in.
The reason I came today is regarding... a dog whistle.
This is similar to what Chief Saeta had.
18 years ago, when you saw the silver spoon,
you also heard an unpleasant and intermittent sound.
Could that have been a dog whistle?
It has a frequency of 17,000 hertz.
A special tone that only the young can hear.
It's called Mosquito tone.
If it was a dog whistle then there must've been a dog nearby.
And then you told me that Chief Saeta loved dogs.
So to ascertain that, I went to his house.
If that's so, then it's weird...
Huh?
If Chief Saeta was involved in the case in some way,
then why did he have the dog whistle?
He even went to the trouble of digging it up from a grave.
Dig up?
The dog whistle had traces of feldspar and iron oxide.
It's the same composition found in the soil of Chief Saeta's garden.
I was curious about
why the grave of Chief Saeta's dog was dug up
and why he had soil on his fingers.
Are you trying to say that Chief Saeta dug up the dog whistle on the day he jumped off the building?
Probably.
But I'm sure he had a reason.
I think the voice of the late Chief Saeta
is within the dog whistle.
Sign: Kantou Police Dog Training Station
It's used for training and disciplining.
Even amateurs can use it easily.
Wow...
Amazing.
- I'll blow it. - Okay.
Teto!
I've known Saeta-san for a long time.
When I was a dog trainer before,
he knew about the dog whistle and he asked me to teach him.
About when was this?
It's awhile back now.
Saeta-san was still a detective then.
His pet Pako was very smart so he learned right away.
After that?
In the end, he stopped using the dog whistle because it doesn't suit him.
Dad.
Did Mr. Saeta really die?
Apparently.
You were pretty close too...
So it was suicide after all.
Yes.
May you not lose your strength.
Excuse me.
What a stupid son!
This happened because you threw me out here and treated me like dirt!
You've even become the chief already...
Ah, stupid!
Coward!!
You weakling!!
Saeta-san, what's wrong?
Saeta-san, please calm down!
Stupid! Stupid son!!
Please someone call a doctor!
Calm down...
Please calm down, Saeta-san.
I have nothing to say, please leave.
Chief Saeta had a young friend named Yokote Yuuta.
The Chief had talked to him about you.
My mother was strong-willed.
When I was young, she kept telling me to study hard,
be number one, and don't lose to others.
That must've been hard.
Yeah...
I've always loved dogs...
But I wasn't allowed to keep one.
That's why I kept a dog when I got older.
I didn't care what she said.
Because of some circumstances, we're not living together right now.
I see.
Even if we meet, there's nothing to talk about.
But she's your mother after all.
It's better to live together.
Chief Saeta was crying.
And this dog whistle...
was found in Pako's grave.
Saeta-san, what's wrong?
Please call them.
Huh?
Please call them.
Sign: Japan Acoustic Laboratory
Chief Saeta's mother said that she'd like to tell you something important.
It's probably about the case 18 years ago.
Won't you come with me?
Me?
Didn't you say that you wanted to know the truth?
Are you scared?
Scared?
What should I be scared of?
Your late brother, Eto Takayoshi-san had a reputation of being an evil lawyer.
And that may have been part of the case 18 years ago.
Aren't you thinking that way?
His reputation aside, he was a very good brother to me.
He also loved Kyouko-san, his girlfriend.
That's why their baby was born.
That was...
Misa.
I'm home.
Welcome home.
Hello.
Shouldn't you go for Misa-san's sake, too?
You're the victim's... sister?
Yes.
And this is his daughter.
Little Miss.
My son was the one who killed your father...
I found out two years after the case.
At the beginning of that year, my son's wife died of an illness...
Two months after, my only grandchild too...
What did you just say?
I said that I've been dreaming of that guy.
Eto, whom I've murdered, is haunting me!
W-what do you mean by murdered?
That's right! I killed him with these hands!
That's why... That's why he's...
He took my Michiko and Hiroki to that world too...
He shows up in my dreams and he laughs..
I don't know what to do anymore!
I'm going crazy, Mom!
What stupid thing are you saying?
Why did this happen...
Tell me everything.
There was a time when I was critically ill and we needed a lot of money.
At that time, he was invited into a bad path.
They asked me to give police information in exchange for money.
So when I received the money, I gave them information.
The two of us can't get away anymore...
But he...
You're turning yourself in? Why now?
My baby was born.
I can't do this anymore...
Sign: Eto Takayoshi Law Firm
For your child's sake?
You've gotta be kidding!
Give that back!
Give it back!
You're only thinking of yourself!
You ruined my life!!
Saeta...!
You know, Little Miss.
When I heard about it...
That's fine.
It's obviously best to keep your mouth shut.
Mom...
Do you want to make me a murderer's mother?
I buried it in Pako's grave.
Hoping everything would be forgotten...
After that day, he barely spoke to me.
He left this here before he jumped off the building.
My son had probably decided to commit suicide then.
He probably gave me this spoon because
he wants me to return it to the bereaved family.
I continued to torture my own kind-hearted son
by not allowing him to pay for his own crime.
I'm sorry!
Forgive my son!
It's all... It's all my fault!
Please forgive him!
It's all my fault!
Forgive my son!
Please forgive him!!
Ah! Please!!
It's all my fault... All my fault!
Please forgive him!
Please forgive him!!
It's all my fault!
It's all my fault, so please forgive him!!
- Um... Saeta-san... Ma'am! - Please forgive him!
Ma'am, we understand, we understand.
So many people died because I was born.
It's my fault that my real dad and mom...
Misa!
Don't touch me!
Wait Misa!
Stop it already Misa!
Come out Misa!!
Misa!!
Eto-san!
Misa won't come out of her room...
I don't know what to do anymore...
Misa-san?
You can hear me, right?
It's Itomura.
Just for a little bit... three minutes is enough...
Won't you please listen to what I have to say?
Do you know what personal effects are?
These are things left behind in the crime scene.
Hearing the voices left in those things is my job.
The personal effects would tell us...
the victim's feelings and the truth.
Of course,
they're not always beautiful...
Sometimes it would breed sadness and rage...
But Misa-san...
personal effects contain proof of their lives and their hearts!
Right now, there's a personal effect that's trying to tell you those feelings.
Please.
Just once is enough.
Please accept his real feelings for you.
Misa!
Oh no!!
Spoon: Misa, thanks for being born.
Your dad...
was really happy that you were born.
He was thankful.
Because of your birth,
he realized the importance of life and found a new hope for the future.
It may be unfortunate that your parents died...
But I'm sure of this...
This spoon is proof that your parents loved you.
And it's also Natsuko-san's... your mother's proof of love for you, who for your sake, never stopped looking for this silver spoon these past 18 years.
Dad bought this for me?
Thank you.
Thank you, Mom.
What's wrong Little Miss?
You're spacing out.
It's nothing...
Jeez, you're always worrying about something.
Oda.
Yes?
- Your reputation is good lately. - Huh?
As your leader, you've made me proud.
Maybe it's because of Miya-san's mentorship?
What's going on?
His next post is just dangling in front of him.
I see.
Well, the Chief is the Chief, you're you, and Itomura is Itomura.
That's what I'm trying to say, Little Miss.
Miyashita-san, I've been meaning to tell you.
Calling me Little Miss is sexual harassment.
Oh, sorry about that, Little Miss.
I'm touched.
I never thought that you'd treat me to dinner.
Oh, it's nothing.
After all, you've been taking care of me all the time, Muraki-san.
This is my gratitude for all the trouble I've caused you.
It's delicious! Thanks for treating me out too.
Wait, Yokoyama-kun.
Wait.
Let's stop eating.
Yokoyama-kun, you're paying for yourself.
Why?
When I said that I was going to treat Muraki-san out, you just decided to come.
What? But you're always troubling me too!
Don't say that I'm troubling you.
What you're doing is work and not anything troublesome.
You're always turning work into something troublesome!
I can't believe you just said that...
- I'll really tell you how... - Wait a minute! Wait!
There are other guests too.
- But he... - All right, all right.
It's my treat.
Thank you very much!
No, no. That's not what I mean.
Delicious!
Yokoyama-kun, the wine list.
Ah, I'd like some too! Ah!
Excuse me! Can I have the wine list please?
Chief Saeta used a dog to move the murder weapon.
He made the dog carry the murder weapon from point A to point B.
He fulfilled that using a dog whistle.
But he never wants to involve dogs in a crime again.
That's why he never trained Lila.
The lost personal effect 18 years ago
has always bothered me right here.
That's the reason I proposed the establishment of a scientific crime unit.
Is that so?
Why me?
When it comes to personal effects, you're a freak, after all.
Freak?
I brought you in because you're stubborn when it comes to things.
In the mean time, seems like it's the right choice.
Ah, by the way.
Please don't forget your promise to publicize what happened when the silver spoon is found, okay?
You're a pro at making others uncomfortable.
Well, I'll take my leave.
Let's go, Lila!
Come here.
- Itomura. - Yes?
Are you keeping her?
No, but I found someone who will.
Let's go.
Please lift your head up.
Hello.
Hi.
