Graveyard Island in the Southern Sea.
On this rugged rock formation island,
We got involved in a frightening case.
Taking a different route than us...
Part of the group that came here to play a survival game,
Were killed by someone.
And now another victim of the Ghost Soldier has appeared.
Damn this, Ghost Soldier!
Graveyard Island Murders, File 2
Nanba and I were guarding the only path to get here.
We didn't notice anyone passing by.
And Hiyama was on watch at the spot where you can see everything,
So just how was Hagimoto killed in here?
Anyway, let's immediately go somewhere else in the morning.
If the Ghost Soldier was able to easily get to us...
It's dangerous to stay here.
How is it, Hajime-chan?
This is what I found.
Eh?
This must be a death poem.
A death poem?
Alright, we've arrived.
Today we'll put our tents up here.
Hey, this place is?
This is the place with the airport ruins, we came here the first day.
No way, then that means...
That bone filled cave is close by?
We can see everything from here.
We'd know instantly if any enemy comes from outside.
That's right, inside the forest...
Let's setup traps so we can detect enemies.
Good idea.
We're going to set this up inside the jungle.
If anyone touches the wire, it makes a loud noise.
So that's how it's made.
What are you making, Kindaichi-kun?
A trap.
I don't feel secure enough just putting up sound traps.
Hold this for a bit, Okazaki.
Eh, what are you going to do with this?
If an intruder's foot gets caught on this...
Amazing!
It's a KO if someone gets hit with this.
I'm going to set up similar ones inside the forest.
This is to protect Miyuki, isn't it?
You won't let anyone lay a finger on her.
I heard what you were saying last night.
You like that girl, don't you?
That's right. You got a problem with that?
Morishita, why you...
I was right next door to you.
I'll hear no matter what.
Then that means...
Miyuki would've been able to hear it as well?
No way...
About tonight...
Around the three points.
We can get in contact with morse code.
Morse code?
Short flashes and long flashes.
Using these two things we can create words.
And get in contact with each other.
For example, three brief flashes is S, three long flashes means O.
If you make S again, it comes out to SOS.
In other words, it means "Please save me."
This book has the roman alphabet and 50 sound table, practice it.
Tonight, we're going to do all communications through this.
It's quiet.
Is there someone there?
A skull?!
There's no way skeleton soldiers exist...
It's just a figment of my imagination, an illusion...
That's the first time I've seen hallucinations.
To see something like this...
What is it? Is this one real?
Miyuki's voice?
Miyuki!
Miyuki! Where are you, Miyuki?
Miyuki...
Hajime-chan!
What's wrong?
Over there!
What's wrong? That scream just now...
The Ghost Soldier!
You've finally shown yourself!
Don't let him escape! Kill him!
Wait!
Don't pursue him too far, it might be a trap.
Anyway, everyone is safe.
Nanba-san isn't here.
What?
Nanba-san!
Oh, he was just sleeping.
What a carefree guy.
Hey Nanba!
This isn't the time to be sleeping.
Nanba-san?
Another person has...
What's going to happen to us?
This has become a real survival game.
I wonder just who's going to survive.
Oh, it's just you.
Hajime-chan, where did you go?
I just went to check around the forest.
Did you find out anything, Kindaichi?
Yeah, I noticed something strange.
All the traps I made were broken.
What did you say?
Maybe the Ghost Soldier broke them when he came?
No, I made the traps surround the whole camp.
If they're just trying to get inside the camp...
There's no reason to break every single trap.
There's something to this.
Behind this murder.
Something we still don't know.
I won't let the Ghost Soldier do what he wants anymore!
In the name of my Grandfather!
Wait up!
Where did you go so early Hajime-chan?
There's something I had to investigate.
Like what?
Think about it, Miyuki.
When Hagimoto-san was killed...
And when Nanba-san was killed...
The culprit broke though all the traps and guards.
And broke into the camp.
Because everyone had their attention focused on the possibility of outside intruders,
It would've been simple for someone on the inside to commit the murder.
What did you say?
Then, the Ghost Soldier is someone among us?
Yeah.
But, Hajime-chan.
Who was the guy we saw dressed up like a soldier last night?
Everyone was there, except Namba-san who was killed.
That's what I'm going to find out.
If there is someone involved with Ghost Soldier...
There should be traces of them on this island.
What's wrong, Miyuki?
Something moved over there...
It's just a mouse.
It's eating bread.
A mouse?
What's wrong?
It fainted.
It's dead.
This is...
Take a look, Miyuki. There are capsules inside the bread.
Then that is...
It ate this.
Just where did this mouse get the bread from?
Hey Hajime-chan, this is the area where all the bones were...
That's right.
Hajime-chan!
This is...
What is it?
The ground is covered in bread crumbs.
But I wonder why there's bread in a place like this?
Miyuki, this is...
Anything else?
Look, there's a death poem here.
I don't remember seeing this the last time I was here.
The place we stayed the first night,
These were in the other shelters, weren't they?
Now that you mention it.
That is where the Japanese soldiers committed suicide.
But strangely, the other place didn't have any bones did it?
Now that you mention it, that's true.
Just maybe, these bones...
Some of them might've been brought from where we stayed.
Eh?
Take a look at the number of bones.
But just why would they carry the bones here?
It was probably to make us stay there.
Because of what happened to the Yonemura team...
I'm sure the culprit predicted we would stay in a safe place like that.
That's why they brought the bones here.
But why would they go that far?
That place was the stage of the culprit's locked room murder.
A locked room murder?
And the reason they gathered all the bones inside here,
The culprit is planning something else.
Something else?
In order to hide here.
After we saw all these bones the first day,
No one would get near here, right?
That was the culprit's aim.
Then that means...
Yeah.
Very recently, there was someone hiding in here.
But who exactly?
What is this?
Just these sentences are inverted.
Hajime-chan, take a look at this one.
The letters are nice and tidy.
That's true.
I see, I figured it out, Miyuki.
This isn't the death poem of the Japanese soldiers.
Eh?
But rather, it's a message from the person that was here recently.
What does this mean, Hajime-chan?
Take a look, when you try to write on the wall like this...
The word is upside down!
That's right, the person that wrote this...
Exactly why would they have to write in such an unnatural pose?
The answer to that is because they had their hands tied behind their back.
In other words, they were imprisoned.
As for the reason this person left this behind,
And disguised it as the death poem of a Japanese soldier...
Someone was keeping watch on him.
So he wasn't able to openly write his own message.
The message he went through all the trouble to leave behind...
Must contain the true identity of Ghost Soldier.
Hajime-chan, I wonder just who the person imprisoned in there was?
I don't know.
If I'm not mistaken...
The ragged Japanese soldier we saw,
He might've been the person imprisoned there.
Eh?
The culprit made that person look like a Japanese soldier.
And released him after making him eat the poisonous bread.
In order to make us think the Ghost Soldier really exists.
Then after completing his role,
The drugs started working, and he eventually died.
But if that's what happened, why didn't that person run away?
If he was captive, wouldn't he call us for help?
Hmm...
I see!
As expected, the strange feeling I felt wasn't just my imagination.
The true culprit, Ghost Soldier, is someone in our group.
He's definitely someone here.
Well, I guess I'll sleep till it's my turn to be on watch.
Iwano-san?
Kindaichi-kun, I have a favor to ask of you.
I'm on the first shift for guard duty, could you switch with me?
Guard?
Haven't been feeling well. I wasn't able to sleep much.
I would like to take a nap.
I don't mind.
Really? You saved me.
Then, I leave it to you.
Oh yeah, Iwano-san.
What is it?
Could you lend me what you're wearing too?
Alright.
Thanks! Sorry about this.
This code should be an important clue that reveals the culprit.
My lover, I will never be able to meet you again.
Now I remember the happy days I spent with you.
Put your hands up, Ghost Solider!
Just as I predicted, the culprit isn't an outsider.
But like this, it's easy to ambush.
Well now, I'll have you show me who you really are.
Wait up!
That's ridiculous!
Hajime-chan!
Where are you, Hajime-chan?
Hajime-chan? Hajime-chan?
Are you okay, Hajime-chan?
It's nothing serious.
More importantly, where is everyone?
Since you were attacked, they increased the guard.
All the guys are out now.
They're wrong.
That's not it, Miyuki.
The culprit is someone on the inside.
To figure out who he is, I need to solve that code.
Code? The thing in the cave?
That's it!
You write strangely.
The writing is cut off in pointless places...
No, I was the one mistaken.
I just quickly copied it down.
Miyuki carefully and faithfully copied the whole thing.
Wait...
The way these words are arranged,
I've seen them somewhere before.
I see...
What is it, Hajime-chan?
So that's what it was.
Like this, I'll be able to know the identity of the culprit.
How can this person be the culprit?
There's no way he could kill Hagimoto-san.
Did I make a mistake somewhere?
What's wrong, Hajime-chan? You look so serious.
It's nothing really.
Can I ask you something?
What is it?
When we slept in the shelter on the first day,
To Hiyama-san, you did...
I had no choice but to say that...
It just kind of came out of my mouth.
What are you nervous for?
You were saying bad things about me, weren't you?
You mean you didn't hear what I said at that time?
There's no way I'd be able to hear!
Though I heard Hiyama-san.
Really? Then that's for the best.
It's not good at all.
Geeze, false alarm there.
Wait, this means that...
Is something wrong, Hajime-chan?
So that's what it was.
Miyuki, I've solved all the mysteries!
You know the truth behind this case?
Hey, stop playing detective.
The ship is coming to pick us up today.
Just leave the rest to the police.
Yeah, it's the Ghost Soldier, even if they search the whole island...
There never was a Ghost Soldier on this island in the first place.
Eh?
The Ghost Soldier doesn't exist.
We were afraid of the delusion the culprit fabricated to fool us.
Our actions were controlled by the true culprit.
Delusion soldiers?
But didn't we encounter Japanese soldiers in the forest?
On the first day, the team that was killed...
The person we saw dressed as a soldier was someone from the Yonemura team.
What? It was someone in the Yonemura team?
After the culprit captured one of them,
In order to make us think a Ghost Soldier exists...
He killed the remaining three members with a bomb.
This way we wouldn't be certain of exactly how many died.
The culprit imprisoned that person in the cave we saw on the first day.
And later released him, making him dress up like a Japanese soldier.
In order to let us meet him.
Thinking this way...
It explains why all the traps I made were broken.
It was in the culprit's calculations that the person might seek help at the camp.
The culprit was afraid his captive might get caught in a trap.
When the culprit came to kill Nanba, he didn't set off the sound trap.
But afterwards it started ringing.
The culprit and the person that set off the trap,
It makes sense if they're different people.
But Kindaichi, if that person was someone on the Yonemura team...
Why did he try to run away after seeing us?
Look.
The things leftover at the scene of the explosion.
There were glasses, right?
Iwano said they were Yonemura's.
This Yonemura person is most likely the person captured by the culprit.
And was made to look like a Japanese soldier.
What did you say?
You're saying that person was Yonemura?
Then that means...
He wasn't able to clearly see us.
That's right.
And one more thing,
At that time, the culprit had a way to make sure Yonemura would escape.
A way?
In other words, Yonemura, who wasn't able to see well,
He had no choice but to rely on his ears to figure out if someone was an ally or enemy.
Frightened at the time, someone screamed this...
"Kill him."
But like this, it's as if the culprit is always by our side.
It can't be, Kindaichi...
That's right.
Using this Graveyard Island as a stage,
The true culprit behind all this...
Is someone among us!
The true culprit is someone among us!
The trap I setup told me...
The culprit, that no one could notice,
Snuck to where Hagimoto was and killed him.
There's just one way to make this possible.
The answer lies inside this.
The culprit that used this island as a stage and pretended to be the Ghost Soldier.
That person is you!
