Kudō... killed someone.
A detective was... killed.
Kudō refuses to see me.
I will ask Kudō.
Ask the Kudō of 2018.
Who told you to approach the Shiraishi boy?
The stolen goods should still be hidden somewhere.
Find them.
The stolen goods will provide conclusive evidence.
Mr. Kudō Masayuki.
You took revenge on the wrong party.
Mr. Yabe is merely one of the victims.
Victim?
It's all because he prioritised his daughter
that my Kazumi...
You would have done the same...
if you were in his shoes.
What's more,
you even killed Detective Sakurai.
She was the only one among the police
who could understand you.
Don't be ridiculous!
There is no one in this world
who can understand me.
Should the real culprit be allowed to just get away scot-free?
The man who gave the false testimony
and framed you, who was innocent.
He is the one who destroyed the lives of you and your family.
Yet that fellow is now
living a happy life
without a care in the world.
Even now it is not too late.
We must make him pay for what he did.
What do you think you're doing?
I was merely expressing the views that I believe are right!
If you do not change how you do things,
no one will listen to you.
Mr. Kudō, please...
We really need your help.
Please give us your full cooperation.
It's been twenty years.
I don't know if I can remember...
It's okay.
Let us remember together.
1998.
That was the year of the Nagano Olympic Games.
At the time, what was your occupation?
Making deliveries with my own van.
Have you ever delivered items in the
Shirogaoka District where the crimes occurred?
It's an upscale residential area with many mansions.
No...
I am not responsible for that area.
I see.
The serial burglaries occurred
from the end of March to May.
There should be some leads during this time frame.
On April 1st, the weather in Tokyo was cloudy followed by rain.
It was a slightly chilly day.
Take your time.
Let us slowly think.
Well?
Year 1998
No, I have never seen it.
I see.
Excuse me.
Hey... I just want to ask you.
Settle down.
Take a look at this.
- Have you seen this? - No, no.
- This! Have you seen it? - No, no.
Are you lying!
It's true!
I see... my apologies.
The sons of the three houses that were broken into
all studied in different schools
and do not appear to have any connection.
However, they are all members of the same yacht club.
This is Mr. Shiraishi's cruiser.
Hold on.
I will get in trouble if you just barge in.
You must get the owner's permission first.
Then can you please request for permission.
Please give them a call.
- Please wait. - I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry.
Sorry to trouble you.
Results are out.
It is cocaine.
Yes!
Move aside. Move aside.
Ōyama! What are you trying to pull?
This was found on the deck of the Shiraishi cruiser.
It's crack cocaine.
Shiraishi frequently brought girls to party on the cruiser.
We have eyewitness testimonies from other cruiser owners.
Chief.
Please issue me a warrant.
Did you find Shiraishi's fingerprints?
No.
He happens to be the heir to Shiraishi Heavy Industries,
which is renowned in the financial world.
Do you think we can touch him that easily?
If there is no absolute proof,
we won't be able to get a warrant, much less arrest him.
April 29th, the first day of Golden Week.
That day was Midori no Hi.
** Midori no Hi (Greenery Day) - a national holiday in Japan dedicated to appreciation of nature and planting of trees
The weather was clear after so many days.
The maximum temperature was 25.7°C.
It was a pleasant day.
Golden Week...
Did it happen... during that year?
Do you remember anything?
A colleague wanted to bring his family for a holiday during Golden Week
and asked me to cover the areas he was responsible for.
That might have been Shirogaoka District.
Mr. Kudō, can you recall the houses you delivered to?
That's right.
I went to a house with an imposing front gate.
I also got in trouble with the son.
Got in trouble?
Sergeant Ōyama.
Lieutenant Saegusa.
I've identified how Kudō and Shiraishi Tomohiro crossed paths.
What?
Shiraishi
Hey, your vehicle is blocking the way.
Move it. Move it right now!
Oh... I'm sorry.
Um... I'm here to do deliveries.
However, it seems no one's home.
I'll move the vehicle right away.
Can you please sign for this?
Why should I receive this!
I'm sorry.
Oh, sorry. I'm really sorry.
How dare you touch me with your dirty hands, old man!
Get lost right away.
Welcome back.
That was why Kudō's fingerprint was found on the mailbox.
Is that it...
Shiraishi made Kudō a scapegoat
over this small matter?
This is ridiculous.
Kudō...
Kudō lost the one he cherished the most because of him.
I too cannot forgive this.
Is it the same over there?
With money and power,
can a person do anything he pleases in this world?
Twenty years have passed.
Something must have changed, right?
If only I can change it.
Please.
Please find the stolen goods and arrest Shiraishi Tomohiro.
Lieutenant Saegusa.
Didn't Kudō say it was a blue car?
Yes. What of it?
There might be a way to catch him.
No, I'm going to catch him for sure.
Cold Case Investigation Team Episode 7
Good morning.
That's a nice car. It must be very expensive.
I don't really know...
Does it belong to Mr. Tomohiro?
Yes. The car is used by both madam and him.
Mr. Tomohiro should have another car.
Where is it now?
This is Mr. Tomohiro's only car.
That's strange.
There should be another blue car.
He asked many questions about cars.
He even said there should be another one.
Detective! I...
Isn't this it after all?
Tomohiro's blue car.
Surely he didn't instruct you to dispose of it?
Key?
Alright.
Ōyama, what's this all about?
That's Shiraishi Tomohiro's car.
What?
Wow...
Get out.
- Hey, quickly. - I'm coming.
Now there's a witness and evidence.
This should be enough for a warrant.
Isn't it?
- Yes! - Awesome!
Shiraishi Tomohiro.
You're hereby arrested on suspicion of serial burglaries.
Other detectives are on their way to arrest your accomplices.
Your servant has confessed.
Shiraishi.
You're finished.
This afternoon, the suspect of the Shirogaoka District serial burglaries
eldest son of Shiraishi Heavy Industries president
Shiraishi Tomohiro was arrested.
This case refers to the consecutive burglaries
in the Shirogaoka District.
From the M.O. of the crimes, Josai Precinct concluded that
it was committed by the same person, and began their investigations.
The suspect Shiraishi...
Yes, this is Nakamoto.
Suspect: Kudō Masayuki
Suspect: Shiraishi Tomohiro
The past has changed.
What are you doing at my seat?
How?
Never mind...
Are you feeling okay?
I'm fine now. In any case, I can go out on the field any time.
Is it so unusual to apply for sick leave due to a cold?
Cold...
Do you not remember?
What?
Yabe Kaori's abduction case.
Abduction? What year was the cold case?
Don't worry about it.
What's important is that you're fine.
However, Sakurai.
Don't push yourself too hard.
Please take good care of yourself.
Did anything happen while I was absent?
Nothing.
That's it.
You're back to work.
You should rest until you're fully recovered.
We're all no longer at the age where we can ignore...
I'm already recovered.
Still, this is the first time that
you were on such a long sick leave.
That's true.
Why don't we celebrate the return of our team leader?
- What? - What did you just say?
How about having a meal together?
Sounds nice. Right?
I don't know what to do with you. Guess I'll have to join you.
Right, Sakurai?
Yes.
Well then, let me make reservations at that excellent French restaurant.
French... You should choose a place that's easy on the stomach.
These are pearl earrings.
Those belong to the Nakane family.
Nakane family.
That is the blue diamond necklace of the Shiraishi family.
What is it?
Floppy disk? That is not on the list.
Let me check the contents.
I'm counting on you.
This is…
House of Representatives Nozawa Yoshio 1997 Democratic Party Deputy Secretary-General Former Deputy Minister of Construction
1. 1995 Nozawa Yoshio Leap Rally 2. Transportation costs 3. Donations 4. Flower costs 5. Transportation costs 6. Symposium on Environmental Issues (Nozawa Yoshio co-sponsored lectures) 7. Transportation costs 8. The 12th Nozawa Yoshio Conference 9. Donations 10. Transportation costs
House of Representatives Nozawa Yoshio 1997 Democratic Party Deputy Secretary-General Former Deputy Minister of Construction
Nozawa Yoshio.
Excuse me.
Congressman Nozawa, I apologise for keeping you waiting.
It is definitely tasty.
Waygu A5 beef is undoubtedly the best.
Do you know why?
The pedigree is strictly regimented since they are calves.
Even their feed differs from the rest.
Being reared in a good environment...
Listening to beautiful music.
They even receive massages.
For a cow, it is the life of a king.
But do you know the reasons for doing this?
To slaughter and eat them in the end.
Shiraishi Heavy Industries
is a company that is crucial as our nation looks to capturing redevelopment demand
in Southeast Asia.
I have had my eye on them...
even back when I was still Deputy Minister of Construction.
- Two servings of sashimi platter. - Yes.
- Three servings of yakitori platter. - Yes.
Oh, and two servings of fried chicken.
You've ordered so much. Can we finish them?
What are you saying?
You just recovered, so you should eat more nutritious food.
What else should I order?
What do you like?
I prefer omurice.
Omurice?
I've liked it since I was a child.
- I don't think they serve it here. - Actually we do.
You actually do?
Let us go for the 300 million yen case.
No. Let's tackle the Police Commissioner assault case instead.
Misaki-chan,
which unresolved case do you wish to reinvestigate?
Although unsolved cases are a part of it,
I care about those cases where the suspect is apprehended
but escapes justice because the case is dropped.
Such as the Fuchū Voice murder,
and the serial burglaries committed by the oldest son of Shiraishi Heavy Industries.
That's about right.
Shiraishi Heavy Industries?
Didn't you know?
The case where he colluded with his friends
to steal their parents' gold and luxury items.
It is intolerable that
Shirogaoka District Serial Burglary Case University student suspects escape prosecution
the case was not prosecuted.
The aftermath of the case is unexpected.
What is going on?
Why was Shiraishi released just like that?
All three families withdrew their reports
and agreed to a settlement.
There is nothing surprising about him escaping prosecution.
Chief Iwata, is it right that the case should be dismissed just like that!
Huh?
Listen here, Ōyama!
Ōyama! Kudō, he...
Why...
Why did you kill Yabe?!
He must pay for his own sins.
If I knew this would happen,
I would not have cleared your name.
If that were the case,
I would still have killed him after serving my time.
Nothing would have changed.
This world is too unfair.
The real evildoer
is so easily let off the hook.
I will never...
forgive this.
Are you looking for the floppy disk?
Director Nakamoto of the Metropolitan Police Department has taken it.
Thank you very much. Thank you for coming.
You've worked hard.
What is going on?
Why did you break into someone else's desk and remove the floppy disk?
First of all, it should have been a seized item.
It should not have been in your personal possession.
How did you know this?
The floppy disk should not have been listed
as one of the missing items.
Headquarters is in charge of the investigation of this case.
The local police has no jurisdiction over it.
Do you know the contents of the floppy disk?
In the first place, this case is out of your league.
Just stay out of it.
I see.
It was you.
I had thought that Shiraishi Tomohiro got off too easily by not being prosecuted.
Someone must have pulled some strings.
Thanks to the trouble caused by their stupid sons,
the bribery ledgers fell into the hands of the police.
In panic, Nozawa of the House of Representatives
could only reach out to you to have it returned.
Isn't that the case?
There was never any record of the floppy disk's existence.
Listen carefully. I will say it once more.
Forget this ever happened.
I will definitely look for evidence
of collusion between you and Nozawa.
I will never give up.
Kudō?
He fell ill around 10 years ago
and died in prison.
What?
Neither his possessions nor his remains were claimed.
He had no one when he died.
Even if the past had changed,
is there no way to change the injustice of this world?
Lieutenant Saegusa.
This is Ōyama. Can you hear me?
Shiraishi Tomohiro was arrested.
However, he was not prosecuted.
I'm sorry.
Sergeant Ōyama.
Is there any meaning to what we are doing?
These wireless transmissions
are only making things worse.
That's not true.
No matter how rich or powerful,
those who commit crimes must be made to pay for it.
That is something only the police can do.
It is not easy to change the world.
But...
perhaps it is possible through the walkie-talkie.
So I feel that it is meaningful.
No matter what the future holds,
I will not give up on the investigation.
Rather than doing nothing and regretting it,
it is better off to regret after acting upon it.
Someone told me the exact same thing.
Rather than doing nothing and regretting it,
it is better off to regret after acting upon it.
She's our team leader, Sakurai.
Even when she is in danger,
she would risk her own life
just to catch the perpetrator.
Stay back!
Over and over again.
She never gave up.
The Sakurai you mentioned...
can it be Sakurai Misaki?
Do you know her?
She is my junior. I was her mentor.
Sakurai actually became team leader... is it really true?
I can't believe it.
A 0.5 who could not even drive properly.
How is she?
Is she doing well as team leader?
Yes.
She is an excellent team leader with empathy for the pain of others.
Is that so?
Looks like she has turned out to be an outstanding detective.
She definitely has guts.
That's great.
Sergeant Ōyama.
Aren't you curious?
What you are doing in 2018?
I don't believe in predicting the future.
There is no need to know how my life turns out in the future.
However, if I am being idiotic in 2018,
you must give me a punch to knock some sense into me.
You are the only one I can trust.
I'm counting on you,
Lieutenant Saegusa.
Alright.
Sergeant Ōyama, in fact...
The past can be changed.
Please do not give up.
What do you mean?
Sergeant Ōyama...
Ōyama...
What is going on?
Yes.
Time of death is estimated between
April to May of 2000.
The remains are still unidentified.
However, no remains of a man
of height 178cm
and surgical scars on his shoulder have been discovered.
There should be gun shot traces.
No, I've never encountered it.
I can confirm that
no man fitting that description has been found.
I see.
What are you doing?
Please step out for a moment.
Sakurai.
Sergeant Ōyama Takeshi was someone who had a strong sense of justice
and did not give in to power.
He often ignored orders from the higher-ups and acted on his own.
When he disappeared on April 15, 2000,
he was also investigating a case alone.
I suspect it was the gang rape case that happened in Musashino City.
GANG RAPE
16 PEOPLE COMMITTED REPEATED RAPE
Victim's appeal. Case exposed after failed suicide attempt
Are you saying that
Sergeant Ōyama was a part of the investigation team for that case?
That's right. He was sent as backup.
Senpai would never accept bribes from criminal organisations.
As such, I believe there must be
another reason for his disappearance.
Does this answer some of your questions?
Yes, thank you.
Then surely you can tell me now.
Why are you so fixated over Ōyama senpai?
Answer me.
You would not believe me
even if I told you my suspicions.
Iwata speaking.
Come over now?
No... that...
Excuse me.
What is this all about!
Saegusa Kento is actually Katō Ryōta's younger brother!
Household Register after 1999 Father : Saegusa Ken'ichi May 10, 1926 Mother : Megumi Jul 7, 1928 Oldest daughter: Miki Apr 10, 1956 Oldest son : Kento Feb 14, 1989
Household Register before 1999 Father : Katō Eisuke Jun 23, 1954 Dead from illness Mother : Miki Apr 10, 1956 Oldest son : Ryōta Jan 21, 1983 Dead. Suicide Younger son: Kento Feb 14, 1989 Looked after by paternal relatives, changed to his mother's maiden surname Saegusa.
What are you trying to pull?
Were you deliberately keeping quiet in order to trap me?
- Saegusa is actually... - Listen carefully.
From now on, be sure to
monitor Saegusa Kento's every move.
What is it?
If the truth were exposed, the one in deepest trouble
would be you.
What happened?
My daughter is dead.
So she still died after all.
In other words, there is no more need for treatment funds.
Let's end this.
What do you mean?
Are you going to betray me
now that you no longer need my help?
I will no longer obey you.
Iwata!
Do you think I will let you off?
I will end this.
Older brother! Older brother!
Older brother, please get up!
Sergeant Ōyama, Saegusa speaking.
I have something to ask you.
What year is it over there?
It's May 26, 1999.
MAY 1999
What has happened?
May?
In the near future,
you will be investigating a gang rape case in Musashino City.
When the time comes, can you please tell me the truth behind the case?
My older brother was involved in this case.
Brother?
Sergeant Ōyama, please.
Gang rape case?
Saegusa speaking.
It's Iwata.
Saegusa, you are the younger brother of the principal offender
of the Musashino Tojo High School school girl gang rape case,
Katō Ryōta, am I right?
That's right.
I am also really sorry
over your brother's death.
However, it is extremely dangerous to investigate this case.
You could end up like your brother if you found out the truth.
What exactly do you mean?
Chief Iwata, even if that were true, I still want to know the truth.
Even if it costs me my life, I must find out the truth.
No. I will find out the truth.
Since you are already prepared for it,
come to Tokyo Josai Hospital in 3 hours' time.
Wait a minute.
Chief Iwata, how much do you know about this case?
Everything you wish to find out,
I know it all.
Be it your brother,
or Ōyama whom you've been searching for.
I will tell you the details when we meet.
Before that, there is something I must do.
Chief Iwata?
Chief! Chief!
What happened?
Chief!
Please hang on.
Chief! Chief!
Iwata!
Preview
This case involved my older brother.
- That was a lie, wasn't it? - I'm sorry.
My brother was sacrificed to protect someone.
Until your innocence is proven, you are still a suspect.
The corruption charges were manipulated.
He said it all began in Musashino.
He was killed to silence him.
Translation: liddi @ D-Addicts
I will definitely uncover the truth.
