1.70 m
Yes, from here.
From the left. Yes.
1.50 m.
THIEF!!!
Do you know what you are doing?
Damn!
Take out all of your stolen goods!
Right!
Move!
I'll kill you if you don't move!
That's my line.
Do you know what you are doing?
You already said that just now!
Really?
Let's confirm the lines.
I didn't make any mistake, because it's my longest line.
See? - Just now, you.. - Cut! Cut!
Cut!
I said CUT!
Can I have a moment?
What's wrong with all of you?
This play is MPD crime prevention public relation's main event.
Can you be more serious?
Be more serious?
Why do we become crime prevention's PR?
You only pushed this troublesome job from your supervisors to us anyway.
It's nostalgic. This is Kamikata, right?
Hey, Takuma. Your role is as the father, right?
Do it with us properly!
The play is tomorrow!
If your house is infiltrated by a robber, you should dial 110.
I think nobody will be interested in this.
Then, what kind of joke can be interesting?
You have to expose a surprising real famous detective in the end.
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
Don't you know that?
That's famous detective Saotome Akira's sentence.
This is it.
I have solved all mysteries.
What?
The truth is hidden in diagonal left.
Why is it in diagonal left?
Oh?
Could it be that, he's Fujimura Takeshi who is currently famous?
Yes. He played a serial "Famous Detective" in a loval Kansai TV.
When I was in prison, watching this drama gave me a unique happiness.
"Steal in from the left, from the left"
An actor who is popular right now used to play a role like that.
This is a dark past.
Right, Anekoji san?
Is that so?
I don't really understand that.
I'm going now.
Now I'm going to meet this Saotome Akira.
What do you mean?
Seems like I can watch a movie, where Fujimura Takeshi also played in.
I got a premium ticket of his unpublished phantom movie from 20 years ago.
Let me see that!
It's limited to 15 tickets with greetings inside the theater. I'm very lucky.
For each ticket, admission is valid for two persons.
I don't remember when I was listed.
Very lucky!
I'm going to!
Takuma, wait for me. I will get ready now.
Anekoji san, are you a fan too?
What are you saying?
Look, this is good to practice acting, right?
I'm sorry, but I leave the rest to you.
But, even if you ask us...
This is news flash.
The skeletonized corpse of a man,
who was found in December last year in Okutama, Nishitama District, Tokyo,
was found to be Hoshino Takayuki san, who went missing more than 10 years ago.
This case has been identified.
Yes...
It's our case.
It's a case from a long time ago,
we barely could identify him from his belongings.
I'm going home.
Practice properly!!!
Oh?
It's here!
What? Just one day love story?
I prefer mystery though.
Oh no, I forgot my cellphone.
I thought I must call Akane.
What's wrong with Akane?
She will have exam from weekend,
she feels sad, because her chemistry result in the last mock exam was bad.
I'm quite good at chemistry, I could have taught her.
"Sailor Love is my Ship".
What? Isn't that Junior High's level?
This one, please. - Yes.
Ah! So cool!
Thank you for waiting. - Thank you.
I'm sorry.
Fujimura's schedule is full until 2 years.
Please come to us for another film.
Thank you for waiting.
We would like you to enter the room now.
You could choose your seat freely, please come inside accordingly.
Hurry up and get inside! It's free seating. Hurry! Hurry!
I am Takeda, the manager.
Actually I have given up on this movie's screening.
In this case
at that time there was a small fire in the storage where we were filming,
a part of the film was burnt.
Somehow we joined the film,
through these 20 years
finally we could show it to all of you.
Please take your time to watch it.
Next is the leading actor of this movie,
Fujimura Takeshi san, please.
I'm Fujimura.
Thank you for coming here today.
This movie was filmed when I was still 25 years old,
I was still unknown at that time
and it was Komiyama Tsukiko san, who recommended me to Manager Takeda.
Who is Komiyama Tsukiko?
You don't know?
The actress who died of an illness 7 years ago.
This person.
Tsukiko san, until the last moment,
was concerned about this movie.
I think she would be the happiest person that a day like today has come.
Please look forward to it until the last moment.
Thank you very much.
Please applause for both of them once again.
Yo! Saotome!
The screening will be begun in 5 minutes,
please remain seated.
I got nervous. I'll go to the toilet.
Why are you nervous?
"Steal in from the left, from the left"
He's so cool.
I'm hiding it, I'm hiding it,
until Saotome Akira exposes it.
I'm calling him out...
Good afternoon.
Excuse me, are you Yamano Mizuki san?
Yes.
I'm Sasaki from DN Region Development.
Region Development?
Yes.
Your grandfather's...
Eh? What is it?
A blackout?
It's time to carry out the execution.
The loser will carry the punishment to death.
It's time to carry out the execution. The loser will carry the punishment to death.
16?
68.
13.
What is that?
Hold on! Excuse me.
Excuse me.
He's dead.
Wait! What is it? What is going on?
What is this?
Isn't that a device that lets out poison gas?
What?
Poison gas?
The deceased has stain over here, doesn't he?
Before he came here, the perpetrator put the same liquid on him,
he probably died after inhaling the evaporated poison gas.
He coughed as he waited in lobby.
Hey, let's run away!
Let's run! Run!
Everyone, calm down!
We will open the door now!
Hurry up! Open the door!
Wait! Don't open the door!
I have publicly executed an example. If you open the door, you will suddenly be covered by the death cloud and you will all die.
...you will all die.
Hey!
Was it already here?
No. What is that?
That's a sensor.
It's mechanism that make the poison gas device works, if you open it without his permission,
This case might be quite dangerous.
I have publicly executed an example. If you open the door, you will suddenly be covered by the death cloud and you will all die.
How could you know that?
I know that,
because I was in prison for 10 years and 10 months.
Takuma Yoshito,
served 10 years in prison for a false accusation,
he absorbed many kinds of criminals' modus operandi, motive and psychology.
And then he became a detective.
Take out all of your stolen goods!
Move! I'll kill you if you don't move!
Like I said, that's my line.
Ah, I'm sorry.
I don't want to do this.
They forced to do this and they watch a private movie screening.
Anekoji san forgot her cellphone.
I have no other choice.
I will give it to her, because the location is on my way home.
Damn, I was too late.
It's useless. It doesn't have signal.
During screening a phone call restrain device has been switched on.
It might still be activated now.
You should have told me sooner!
I'm sorry, we can't operate it from here.
Do you mean we can't contact people outside?
I'm sorry.
Isn't there any other exit?
This is the only one.
Hey!
Noway!
I don't care, just get me out of here!
Look at this situation!
Everyone, please calm down!
Calm down!
I'm Anekoji from MPD's Integrated Crime Corresponding Team.
Over there...
The man over there is my colleague, Takuma.
Police?
We can't solve anything with a fight.
Right now everyone has to cooperate.
It's alright.
He has left a way to save us.
What?
What? Do you still not understand?
What?
If you know something, hurry and tell us!
if this were a random terror, he wouldn't announced a threat in advance.
Wouldn't he spread the poison gas right away?
Takuma!
What are you doing?
But the perpetrator...
deliberately used a timer
and postponed its launch.
Three numbers on the screen.
He want those to be solved.
Oops.. it's falling....
He was in a hurry....
Don't kid around!
I don't. He could only operate it in a small room.
What operation?
This poison gas device uses a tablet.
If I put the answer here, will it cancel this device's operation?
The cancelation keys are not limited to numbers only.
What might they be? I'm confused.
Well, let's try.
16...
Wait! Wait!
68... -Wait a second! Wait!
Hey, wait! Wait! - 13...
Okay.
Of course it's not. I will be surprised if it's correct.
Oh, this is bad.
I have two times left.
What two times?
There are limited input trials.
What are you doing? You just what you wanted to do!
Is that man really going to be alright?
He's alright. He's alright.
Why does the perpetrator aim this limited screening and not a normal theater?
Could it be that Fujimura's manager knows something?
What are you talking about? It's impossible that I...
Misu san.
We better tell him everything.
You know something, don't you?
Actually...
since last months there were tens of same letters sent to Fujimura's address.
And today a letter came again.
The loser carries the punishment to death.
It's the same sentence with this crime's.
The loser carries the punishment to death.
Did you tell the police?
No, I thought it was a joke.
Because this is Fujimura's important time,
I don't want any weird reports that could bring negative image to him.
Do you have any clue about the perpetrator?
We had trouble with Manager Takeda in this screening.
With Manager Takeda?
Oh..
Where is manager Takeda?
He seems to be not here.
Since when is he not here?
I didn't see him since our stage greetings.
Could it be that manager is the perpetrator?
What?
Indeed,
if manager Takeda is the perpetrator
he could set that poison gas device without being suspected by anyone.
He's right.
He was the one who wanted to have this screening.
I was opposed this screening.
But Takeda selfishly decided to publicize it.
He has money problem.
He took advantage on Fujimura's fame,
he wanted to make money on this movie.
Excuse me, is the movie not finished yet?
What?
It should be finished soon.
Please come over here.
Huh?
I can't open it.
What?
Hey!
Come here! Hurry!
Excuse me.
Takeda is the perpetrator.
I'm sure it is him.
If that's the case, do you have any clue about those three numbers?
No,
I have no clue at all.
Anekoji san, can you hear me? It's me, Matsubara.
Matsubara san?
If you can hear me, go to the back, face the CCTV and raise your hand.
I still don't understand your situation,
but we found a man murdered inside the gent's toilet.
but the murdered victim is this movie manager, Takeda Kengo san.
There's a key to that private screening room in security room.
Now we're going to you...
What?
Anekoji san?
The acoustic system is down.
Oh, we can't hear her anymore.
This is bad.
If Matsubara comes in just like that
the poison gas device will work.
What?
What is that?
A bomb?
This is the screening room's key.
Let's go.
Please wait!
Could you not get into that room until we instruct you to do so?
Also, can you give me the list of people inside?
Yes.
This is Matsubara. We have an urgent situation. Come here now.
Don't open the door!
Did she get the message?
Yukiko san is not a stupid person. It's alright.
Even Takeda is murdered.
Everyone is getting too impatient.
Manager Takeda is not the perpetrator.
Then who did it?
Right!
This is the story of Chame yan, who was often in the recreation room with me..
Recreation room?
Don't worry, just listen to him.
Every time Chame yan went to a town district,
Chame yan
he always loved to make a prank.
Chame yan
He was so happy if his prank became an article in newspaper.
But
he got escalated and couldn't feel satisfied.
His prank got worsened and worsened.
He always blended himself with the curious onlookers
to look at crime scene.
That was his thrilled and happiest moment.
No way...
do you mean, the perpetrator is here among us?
That " no way"!
This crime is a game for him.
That's why he presented numerical puzzle.
But this is a locked room, isn't it?
he can't confirm this game's progress from outside.
In short, the perpetrator is...
here and watching this boldly.
He must be thrilled and listening from a very near place.
Is the perpetrator someone among us?
You sat down right next to the dead man.
Just because of that? What did I do?
I'm the one who's asking you! Didn't you do something to him?
I didn't do anything!
Then what about you!
Didn't you have enough with Manager Takeda?
I didn't kill him!
Hey! Wait!
Calm down! Calm down! Everyone, calm down!
The perpetrator must know about the cancelation key.
If the perpetrator is really among us,
we have to find him right away.
We have few times left.
I agree!
Let's have everyone in here show their ID.
Also check your belongings.
Everyone, show your ID and belongings to detective.
Please.
All of these 15 guests on this list,
have applied themselves for this screening, right?
Yes, they have.
How about the lottery process?
We randomly chose them from 20.000 lotteries.
Is there any manipulation?
No, that's impossible.
Matsubara!
How about Takuma san and the others? - they's still inside.
What are they doing?
Can't we get inside?
Everyone doesn't want us to come inside.
Besides, Anekoji san carries a dangerous material.
Dangerous material?
Hey, look at this.
This is screening's guest list.
But Takuma's name can't be found here.
What?
By the way, Takuma san...
doesn't remember when did he apply, right?
It's limited to 15 tickets with greetings inside the theater. I'm very lucky.
I don't remember when I was listed. Very lucky!
What's going on here?
I don't know.
Anyway, let's split into groups and find out each guest's ID.
Listen, from now on don't move even a step.
I will arrest the one who moves for evidence destruction.
Ah! That woman! You moved! You're under arrest! - What?
I just touched my hair.
Man at the back also moved! You're under arrest. - I didn't.
What are you doing?
Didn't you move? - Why don't you shut up?
Calm down!
Hey, aren't you being too harsh?
This one is ok.
Actually Chame yan's story was still continued.
What?
his love for pranks didn't change when he was in prison.
He caused uproars many times.
At that time he would always stand at the best position where he could see it.
In this room
it's that position.
Do you mean that staff member?
A staff can easily set the sensor at that door secretly and easily.
The moment we found that poison gas device
the one who first guided the guests to the exit was
that man.
Everyone, calm down!
Right now we will open the door!
By doing so, he could prevent the panic guests from going out.
Besides, he called me detective.
Everyone, show your ID and belongings to detective.
I never said that we're detectives.
Didn't he know me from the beginning?
He knew you?
How come a staff knew you?
Please calm down! - Hey! Hey!
It's inevitable that we have arguments!
Please calm down! Please calm down!
I understand you, but the situation is like this.
Alright? Please calm down.
Okay?
That scar...
where did I see it?
Everyone, calm down.
Okay?
Please calm down.
We have no choice.
What's wrong?
We were in the same prison.
I see.
Yukiko san
among those 15 guests, nobody has used a fake name.
I found nobody that's listed in criminal's database.
I see.
Excuse me, you said that your staff also got inside that room, right?
Yes, there are two staffs inside.
Who are those two staffs?
One of them is a veteran employee,
the other one is a volunteer staff.
he suddenly came a week ago to work voluntary here.
One week ago?
Yes.
He said he's Fujimura san's fan,
and is willing to work unpaid for this event.
Who is that person's name?
Makabe Shuusuke.
From the beginning your target is me, right,
Ex prison guard, Makabe san?
I didn't notice you, because you don't wear a uniform.
You knew that I like Famous Detective Saotome when I was in prison, didn't you?
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
I only watched that show every week.
That's the best.
That's why you sent me a ticket to lure me.
This is the only way to make me participate in this game.
You finally noticed me.
I think the time will be over just like this.
Arrest him!
Don't move!
If you move even a single step, I will detonate it.
There is hydrogen cyanide inside that poison gas device.
If I spread it here, the whole building will be filled with it in an instant.
The poison's amount is 1 liter.
It's an equivalent dose to kill 500 people!
It's useless to run away!
You will surely die!
Move back!
Move back! Move back!
Listen!
don't forget that your lives depend on what I have in my hand!
If you detonate it here, you will also die.
It's my long time ambition to win this game and die.
Why are you doing such a coward thing like this?
Why?
Ask Takuma that!
Me?
Have you forgotten
what you did five years ago?
Did something happen 5 years ago?
Stop kidding me!!
You exposed injustice on prisoner who became waiter with you!
It was begun with one cigarette.
Please, can have a cigarette?
If you insist.
If you lick my shoes, I'll let you have it.
How miserable you are.
You're a loser.
Then one day
You shouldn't do it.
You shouldn't give this to a prisoner.
It's a violation against duty's regulation.
I don't know what will happen to you,
Makabe Sensei.
After that, I was being used by those guys,
He came again.
until that person came to help me.
In exchange for rescuing me from those guys,
I fulfilled what he wished for.
But you
I'm positive it was this guy.
He used a cellphone to make illegal transaction with the outside.
Because of your sense of justice,
my backing was gone,
they treated me like a garbage again.
Come here!
Calm down!
Lick my shoes.
Say it,
"I'm a loser."
I am...
a loser.
That's just an unjustified grudge.
You're wrong!
It was Takuma.
My life went crazy because of Takuma.
If you didn't tell them, everything would be just fine.
Did you do this only to take revenge on me?
Yes, you're right.
This is a game about life and death.
You will lose this game,
and many people will also die.
This is my punishment for you.
Chemical factory?
Yes, I asked his neighbors. He resigned from that prison 5 years ago,
and worked at a chemical factory.
But half year ago the factory went bankrupt,
his wife ran away and he became alone.
Then Makabe is in despair now.
It looks like he made something dangerous.
What's wrong? Save everyone with your proud sense of justice!
We have only 10 minutes left.
Takuma...
Calm down.
I'm thinking right now.
At that time
I saw the guys who bullied Makabe.
Prisoners' numbers?
What?
If that's the case
there should be three others to receive punishment.
Stop it!
53!
95.
8.
There are 6 numbers.
Are those the cancelation key?
No.
I still don't have enough clue for the key.
With only this, I still don't know the order.
Number's order? No. It could be imprisonment.
No.
Prisoner's rank?
13, 95, 53, 8...
Please...
16, 68.
Ok.
Damn!
Too bad!
You have one chance left.
The next will be your last chance.
Don't interfere!
Move back!
All of you, move back!
Put your hands behind your back!
Move back!
There's one thing that I can't understand. Why did Makabe kill manager in the toilet?
Why did he?
Makabe is a stereotype theater criminal.
He has to kill someone in this room to give a surprising show to everyone.
You're right.
It doesn't match the criminal's rule.
Isn't there another crime's rule?
Another? That's impossible.
There is no one crime with two rules.
Two rules?
..was found to be Hoshino Takayuki san, who went missing more than 10 years ago.
I got it.
Do you know the cancelation's key? - No.
I know why are there two crime rules.
Anekoji san, help me.
Yukiko san, isn't Takuma san making an appeal here?
You're right.
What?
I've seen this pose somewhere...
It's that one,
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
That guy?
Pamphlet?
This one! Over here! Over here!
Hey, Lady Detective!
What are you doing? Get down from the stage!
Do you want to die?
Hands behind your back and move forward!
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
What's wrong?
Still can't solve it?
We only have 1 minute left.
Prostrate yourself,
and if you lick my shoes,
I will give you a hint.
Only numerical listing won't do it.
I have to change them into something.
There is hydrogen cyanide inside that poison gas device.
She will have exam from weekend,
she feels sad, because her chemistry result in the last mock exam was bad.
Sailor lover is my boat!
The cancelation key is I am a loser.
Takuma, hurry!!!!
I know that!
The skeletonized person's belongings?
I have something urgent to be investigated.
Yes.
YES!
Cancelation completed!
Yes!
Let's go.
Yes.
Takuma!
You said it just now.
"I am a loser."
You admitted that you're a loser!
I am
a loser.
I...
I'm not a loser! I have defeated you!
You are the loser!
Anekoji san!
Thank you!
Take everyone out.
Everyone, it's alright now. Let's get out slowly.
Makabe, you're under arrest for illegal arrest and confinement.
I know that.
Let's go.
Hey, Takuma! Takuma!
Say it to me once again!
Tell me once again that you lost!
You seemed to be so excited.
This crime has nothing to do with win or lose.
Besides, didn't you misunderstand thinking that you're the leading actor in this crime?
I'm sorry, but you're just a supporting criminal here.
Let's go.
Hey! What do you mean?
Hey!
Am I right,
leading actor, Fujimura san?
I found this thing under Fujimura san's seat.
Hey Makabe, let's go!
Hey, Takuma!
Takuma!
Hey!
Since we're all here, why don't we watch the movie until the end?
Since the movie began, I knew right away that there's something strange.
Look, the main actor put that badge on his suit, right?
But he didn't wear it in this pamphlet.
Oh, it disappeared in this scene.
Gently.. - Yes, gently.
Gently. - Oh?
Why did it suddenly disappear?
Takuma san!
Oh.
Otsukare!
How was it?
I brought the skeletonized corpse's belongings at the crime scene.
No matter how we investigated it, we still couldn't find any clue about this badge.
This is my section's case.
It's a case from a long time ago,
we barely could identify him from his belongings.
Of course he couldn't.
because it was a badge from a fiction company in this movie.
I remember about your badge and his belongings.
I got a hint.
This case and 20 years ago's case are connected.
So I asked their help to investigate it.
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
This movie's shooting location is close to where the corpse was found.
Skeletonized male corpse is 36 years old Hoshino Takayuki
Crime scene Tokyo, Nishitama District, Okutama,
20 years ago
the one who killed Hoshino san was you, right?
At that time that man financially depended on Tsukiko san.
Why are you here?
He even came to shooting location to extort her.
Please go home.
What's wrong with you?
What are you doing?
I couldn't forgive him.
He made Tsukiko san suffer.
Tsukiko san
is my benefactor.
She said that I will surely be lucky,
so don't give up and continue being an actor.
She always encouraged me.
That's why I killed him.
That badge fell down when you buried his body.
His corpse was discovered December last year,
if this movie is screened, the police might investigate you.
That's why you used Makabe to disturb this screening.
I can't make any disturbance with my own strength.
I read your interview in magazine.
In order to prepare a role as a criminal,
you even went to dangerous location.
Yes.
At that time I heard about underground crime website.
I looked for a person I can use at that website.
He was looking for a place where he can use a poison gas device.
His criminal target is also my fan,
I contacted him while hiding my identity.
I have a new message
So did you exchange information on the internet with Makabe?
Yes.
I only gave him support on criminal's location from my position.
He has his own opinion...
You used your position,
you gave him instruction to target your own movie's screening.
Because of your ego,
how many people will be sacrificed?
Manager Takeda was also your...
He told me after that stage's greetings.
I was shocked.
While I was editing the movie, your badge was suddenly disappeared.
Was it...
"that"?
That's how it is.
I count on you from now on.
But...
you have a bad luck.
Because of a third-rate actress...
But..
at least she had a nice body.
Right?
Nice body.
"Steal in from the left"
"You too, it's about time to tell the truth."
This is
everything that I have done.
Well then, shall we go?
The heroin lady was a right handed, right?
What?
She has been using her left hand from a while ago.
Did she hurt her right hand?
This is the flowerpot you have planted.
Thank you.
Even though we can't be together after this,
I...
will always protect you.
It's enough.
Live your own life.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Takuma...
could it be that
Tsukiko san killed Hoshino san?
If she hurt her right hand at that time,
in order to protect Tsukiko san's reputation,
Fujimura san
plotted this crime.
Even though it's been 20 years,
he always protected Tsukiko san.
I wonder how it was...
"The truth is hidden in diagonal left."
Just joking.
This love story is unexpectedly good.
Then I will go home.
Wait!
Ah, right,
You really are Fujimura san's fan.
What?
You even checked his magazine's article.
See you!
Wait for me!
We still have our stage play's practice!
Hey!
Do you know what you are doing?
Takuma!
