Condemned?
He's had to face the death penalty and he has a challenge for the police.
If you can't find the offender within 24 hours,
I will make judgment on behalf of God.
Don't be stupid. It's a trick question.
It's time for divine punishment.
- He's still... - Still troubled with what happened to your subordinate?
What happened to your left arm, I know the truth.
- I know of Ninomae. - Right now, it's time for the special execution.
Would you trade?
Trade?
The condemned criminals challenge, it was all a prank on the net.
Information is being manipulated.
What scary power. It's provoking.
It's like they knew what to say, like that movie you recommended.
- Don't let it stop your detective work ahead. - Hm?
I feel sorry for you only having one arm.
Don't eat the steamed gyouza left-handed.
You know what I'm talking about.
Yummy.
The deal, what do you want to trade?
Sebumi-san, have you ever heard of the hand of god?
Hand of god?
Shimura-san could probably be cured by that doctor.
It seems so.
- Really? - You don't understand.
As a scientist I shouldn't believe this
but it's apparently something real.
A psychic, or in this case psychics.
People who have the ability to reproduce cells
I guess.
Sebumi-san, you're department should have the data.
So I show you what data?
You...
Do you want to help Shimura-san?
- Is that a threat? - It's the trade.
I would like to help many patients, not only one.
Of course, even Shimura-san.
Saving Sebumi-san's life may even help Mirei-san.
You can save him.
I'm a doctor who should have grown used to death
but I really haven't.
People die all the time
and each will accumulate in my heart forever.
The pain
and sadness I'm carrying around is heavy.
I think you know enough about that as a detective.
It isn't so bad.
There is data on the man with the Hand of God.
With this, I could save Shimura-san.
So you're talking about a small hope.
Even if there is data.
It's probably just an extreme case of fraud.
I have met a man with the Hand of God.
It could cure him.
Actually, I know it can.
- It's already 10, time for curfew. - Yeah.
Still, still, it's fine.
Not good...
This is good... good.
I have met a man with the Hand of God.
Ridiculous story.
There's a difference.
Why can't it be true?
Ouch.
It doesn't...
I hate that your love is so furtive, it's tiring.
I always talk to you about it.
It's my wife's lawyer.
It's taking a very long while for the judgment to proceed.
Then does that mean we have to sneak around?
Don't say it like that Miya-chan.
"Shotgun wedding", didn't I say that?
You said it.
My child?
It is.
Alright!
You're unfair, you already know the future of the game.
Yeah, it's definitely the future.
You're becoming too shameless.
Well, I've already seen the various ways I die.
So, what's your prediction for tomorrow?
Yes, you had promised to release me.
Then it really hit me.
If I predict it, it's absolute.
Two from Unsolved Cases are going on a stakeout about now.
I'm sleepy.
Sleepy...
You're a disturbance, you should have stayed home and slept.
Let's pay for a taxi ride.
We don't need to.
- When did your arm heal? - It's unrelated to you.
We were told by the higher ups to do a stakeout with concern for public welfare
but why do we have to have a case?
- Here. - I'm eating mochi right now.
Stakeout, be on the lookout at 1PM.
Why are we doing surveillance?
I know, but we're being watched by the higher ups.
- Up? - The higher ups.
Instructions from the higher ups.
Huh?
I'll entrust it to you.
If we're doing a stakeout, shouldn't they atleast tell us the target?
- Why are you really here? - I'm not certain.
Shinagawa station, east Shinagawa station.
There is no Shinagawa station east. It's Shinagawa city, East Shinagawa, you idiot.
Huh?
- The Shinagawa station is in Minato city. - Huh? Isn't that strange?
It's common sense, idiot. We don't have time to get a taxi.
I'll take a taxi.
- A woman. - It's great.
Taxis are great.
It's so easy.
It's almost 1 o'clock.
It's that.
Then senpai, please.
Alright, alright, alright. Stop here.
- Welcome. - A full tank of gas.
Yes.
It's great.
A full tank of gas.
What are you doing?
It's a little chilly today so I'm offering my services.
What are you doing? What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Stop it!
It's slippery...
What is this?
Thank you for your hard work.
It's great.
A girl, how cute.
- I'm glad no one got hurt. - It wasn't safe.
You still smell like gas.
Even with one arm, I was almost killed by that gas station guy.
Now, please let us interrogate.
You should calm down before the interrogation.
I was nearly set on fire.
Now! Tell us the truth.
There's resentment in the workplace right?
I only took over this body for now.
- This person is innocent of the crime. - You blondes!
What person? You are Mutou Jarou.
Why is he pretending ignorance? That guy.
- They can't hear you. - You don't have to speak.
- How are we supposed to believe that? - It isn't natural.
There are ways.
Well...
Isn't something like possession possible?
Excluding the people in here, what about the people watching?
Where am I?
What's wrong?
Why did I possess this body with such itchy athlete's foot?
By the way, what's your name?
- Who are you? - Is your name Hayashi Minoru?
Hayashi Minoru? That's a common name isn't it?
There must be a lot in Japan.
Ah, that's right.
In order to prove this ability of Hayashi Minoru's is real,
who wants to see a possession ending?
About that.
- It might be a bit fun. - Hey.
Then, game start. I'm going now.
Heavy.
I'm sorry.
Was I asleep just now?
No. You were possessed by Hayashi-san just now.
It was amazing to see.
Well, that looks good.
We'll let whoever speaks honestly go.
Please help. I really don't remember.
Please believe us. We're the victims.
What did it feel like being possessed?
It's a sense of going far away.
That's a pattern typical of possession. Enduring such a thing.
Possession isn't some type of illness.
It isn't a type of insanity.
There's no reason someone else's personality has to come into it.
Both of them are sure of it.
By that, do mean it's like a disease?
These two are being theatrical.
After all...
This isn't being theatrical, I actually lost consciousness.
Then why don't we try administering truth serum.
- It doesn't matter, please. - Please.
To illicit a drug confession?
Sitting here, you're amazing.
You said the future is absolute
shall we play Wii Party next?
You promised you would release me soon.
I have stopped the disaster with my predictions.
It's hard to say.
Is it okay to use force?
Do you want to call a friend, is that favorable for you?
We have the examination results of the gas station worker, Muto,
and from the policeman Hayashi Minoru and there were no signs of lying.
From the lie detector and the administered medicine.
Did you really use a truth serum?
The public would be scared.
But there is one thing common to both of their memories.
- What? - A mendicant.
A woman in Kyoto.
A woman beggar monk in Kyoto?
With a mole here.
That is...
A little erotic.
Huh?
- That is erotic. - Huh?
My heart was tugged.
- Just making sure you weren't possessed. - Heh?
Oh, that's right. To have a possession. To be possessed.
"Then, big brother, please forgive me".
Then we need to find the woman mendicant and see if she's a key to these possessions
and find out about any other Hayashi Minoru-san's.
Yeah...
How does it move from bodies?
What?
I know, the span.
Check the phonebook for everyone named Hayashi Minoru-san.
I'll only say it once.
Is that an order?
Well it's simple.
Imai-san, just a moment.
- Good morning. - Morning.
This morning, at a girl's high school in Suginami city,
58 year old principal,Hayashi Minoru, began lifting the school girl's skirts.
It came!
It did come.
Really?
The principal, Hayashi Minoru, overpowered the other teachers...
Yes? Thank you. This is the chateau de MINORU HAYASHI. A reservation for Hayashi?
Unfortunately, he is booked until next thursday.
Doesn't it suit you?
- Tochigi is finished. - Good work.
- Nagano is finished. - Good work.
Now, it's time for the news corner.
The current cases surrounding Hayashi Minoru-san are bizarre.
We will use this to review. The first paper...
Are they starting to get wind of it?
The second case was with hairdresser Hayashi Minoru
were he caused women customer's trouble.
The third case with Hayashi Minoru-san occurred in Osaka...
Huh, Osaka!?
Huh, Sapporo!?
Huh, Okierabu island!?
- That far? - Kagoshima.
- Are you talking about these people being possessed? - Yes.
Do you think possession is really possible?
I think Fujimura Shunji-san would know about things like this.
With so many possessions...
Anyone?
It seems everyone isn't taking it seriously.
Safe, just safe.
You need to stop that and hurry up before the media catches wind of this.
It's already too late.
It's the commissioner.
Such a challenge came.
It's from that woman.
"Challenge".
Police, since you have refused to acknowledge my possession ability,
from now on, as I have stated previously, I will possess men by the name of Hayashi Minoru.
Can the law prosecute someone who is committing a crime without even knowing of it?
I wonder, can the police catch someone with an ability to possess others?
I'm really looking forward to it.
If I have not been caught after the 48 hour period...
What should we do?
They want the media to announce that the ability to possess exists.
Just that? What?
You idiot, when something as fake as this goes unchallenged in society
then people would be able to blame all crimes on possession!
In the first place, this is a situation that shakes the foundation of our constitutional government.
Before the human rights groups and politicians find out, we need to resolve this case.
- Are we clear? - Yeah.
The commissioner's son-in-law is named Hayashi Minoru.
He definitely cannot be dragged into this, got it?
Yeah.
I feel bad about this.
We will do it now, now.
Is he serious?
With victims as ridiculous as this,
that guy is pitiable.
That's right.
There's a kid in our class named Hayashi Minoru, what if he get possessed?
He was absent from school.
They say if you're possessed
it'll result in a split personality that changes over time
and finally, they'll commit suicide. - Really?
To tell the truth, I saw it.
- The Kyoto woman mendicant. - Huh?
Maybe I'll die.
Did you get a receipt?
- Is this woman from Kyoto? - Yes!
The rumors are spreading of the Kyoto woman mendicant.
I'm amused the press has sunk so low.
Boss, this is super delicious.
An additional serving of 5 fried and 5 steamed with extra garlic.
5 fried and 5 steamed with extra garlic coming right up.
You like eating.
She eats really well.
There are alot of Hayashi Minoru-san's.
Like the first policeman that was possessed.
This would be easier if the name was less common.
I'm glad Toma llikes it.
Sebumi is being rather unusual,
don't you have 30 people to look into?
Look.
This is the commissioner's son-in-law, the representative of the Justice Party,
a top cardiac surgeon in Japan and the chairman of a leading screw manufracturer.
Other than the principal of the school, 3 other school teachers have been arrested.
Here, 5 fried and 5 steamed with extra garlic. Eat up.
It must be a common name among school teachers.
It's about the person behind this series of incidents.
Like the gas station incident.
We need to prevent these series of Hayashi Minoru incidents spreading nationwide.
Isn't that right?
Now we need to find out the truth behind the Hayashi Minoru incidents and stop them.
we won't able to keep up at this rate.
For something like this to stand trial,
we have to figure out the first crime of possession,
and investigate so the judge will stand with the prosecution.
Yes, Unsolved Cases.
Huh?
A Hayashi Minoru murder?
You're late Unsolved Cases.
I'm sorry for being late.
This is the IPS cell research pioneer Professor Nakayama Kazunori.
He never told his story while he was alive.
Don't touch the body with your bare hands.
I'm sorry.
There are considerable defensive wounds.
He seems to have resisted fairly long.
There are some marks
here on the face that seems to be unusual.
Is that unusual?
Normally the face doesn't look like this during strangulation,
he bled while he was fighting back for a long time.
Don't you think he was tortured to death?
I knew... I already knew that.
What else do you know?
37 year old Hayashi Minoru called 110 at 13:19
he worked with Professor Nakayama as an assistant at the Nakayama laboratory.
Concerning the research results,
I'm sure Professor Nakayama was most likely lying.
- And the prime suspect, Hayashi Minoru? - In the other room.
Why wasn't he taken to headquarters?
There is no evidence and no witnesses
and he has no recollection... isn't that right?
No way! There is evidence and a witness to this
so stop pretending to not know anything.
No way.
Toma-kun, we can't possibly prosecute with evidence we don't have.
How can we possibly prosecute a crime of possession?
If something like this was reported to the press, it would gain attention from all over the world
and people will laugh and blame the prosecution.
My life would be ruined.
Jesus Christ!
Fuck it!
Shit! Everything's all jumbled!
But there are fingerprints.
The flesh remaining in the nails is probably a DNA match to Hayashi Minoru.
Stop playing dumb.
There are surveillance cameras here.
Me?
The one that strangled Professor Nakayama was me?
Yes, the surveillance cameras recorded footage of you strangling Professor Nakayama.
The wounds on the back of your left hand
were wounds sustained when Professor Nakayama resisted.
You really don't remember anything?
I would have said it from the start, but I really don't know anything.
- But... - But?
It's a shame to say something like this as a scientist,
but it felt like I had missed a lot of time.
You were possessed?
For the time being, shouldn't the ones in charge be Unsolved Cases?
Why after a murder...
For these kinds of mysterious incidents, isn't best if it's handled by Unsolved Cases?
Those small people.
This is something human's do in life to recover from out of control and desperate situations.
Don't say that senpai.
Don't complain so much about this case.
Already 48 hours have passed since promise was made.
Wait. You just have to wait a little longer.
I've already waited long enough going through all of the Hayashi Minoru's.
Now that so many people have been possessed, this SPEC will be recognized by the world.
Gun.
This is the first time I've felt how heavy one is.
Left-handed?
- Stop. - So sudden.
Well, I'm sorry...
Left-handed criminal.
Left-handed...
What are you looking at?
I'm just looking for
left handed criminals in order to find the culprit who was left-handed.
That's all.
- And Toma? - Isn't back.
Then that's all for today.
Sebumi-kun.
It's better to be more relaxed.
Tomorrow I'll go in search of the female mendicant monk.
Maybe she's the culprit.
If that's an order then I'll do my best.
Right, good work today chairman.
Hm...
Damn it, there's no paper.
I just use these.
Hayashi Minoru?
It's great.
Head teacher Hayashi Minoru-san.
Suit you...
Hayashi Minoru-san occurred in Osaka...
Hayashi Minoru called...
Left-handed?
I got it.
I could get the death penalty for this.
You weren't even conscious of it.
A psychiatrist could be consulted.
Claiming insanity isn't being innocent but it might lead to an acquittal.
With this many incidents of repeated possession, it could be recognized.
You can't be punished for only being a victim.
But Professor Nakayama was more important than a sibling or a parent
and was killed with this hands.
It would be rather easy to get the death penalty for this.
What?
That attitude of yours is why you couldn't find the culprit behind this series of incidents.
Seriously?
By the way, Baba-san told me that the boss want's too see the two of you,
wouldn't it be good to show your faces soon?
- Bad. - Wait for me!
You're an idiot.
Since you're a genius, you must think of other people as mediocre.
I was just an assistant to Professor Nakayama.
Again, you're being humble.
I examined his PC in the laboratory at the University.
My PC contains most of the materials for my thesis.
Yes, as well as various materials and information from Professor Nakayama's computer.
Hayashi-san's computer had almost no data.
But I think it's rather funny.
The description on this paper is almost 70% gone from that PC.
Do you know who wrote this thesis?
Of course, it's Professor Nakayama's.
This was found of Professor Nakayama's personal computer.
It's not about the amount of data but the quality of data.
That brain of Professor Nakayama's
could have won a Nobel Peace prize with his thesis.
Like the Gaussian curve used for Schrodinger and Lev Landau
A thesis written by a genius on the impression of philosophy.
Huh?
What are you going on about? I don't know what you want to hear.
What I want to hear? What I want to hear?
You smell of garlic.
If you say so.
I thought this famous thesis had been written by Professor Nakayama.
You wrote it.
Do you have any evidence of that?
I do.
As you may know, computer data
even if it's turned off, doesn't go away completely
Hayashi-san may have planned to erase it completely
but the data wasn't erased. I...
made a copy of the data so it could be restored.
In regards to the computer, I can be rather detailed.
I'm sorry.
Disgusting.
But this wasn't the name of your thesis,
in order words, he was trying to steal the credit for it,
Professor Nakayama.
Now, something like that would definitely make someone angry.
Well, that's what I think happened.
Professor Nakayama feigned ignorance of it and claimed it was a mistake
but didn't you want an apology for it?
Now it would be impolite to correct me
but while working with the Professor, he took the thesis as his own.
You felt you would always remain an assistant.
You were betrayed and killed Professor Nakayama out of hatred.
I don't hate anything.
I didn't mind being an assistant.
If I killed anyone, I must have been possessed.
Hayashi-san is a genius, but let an ordinary person like me explain even though it's somewhat embarrassing.
In the human brain, only 1% is used.
The remaining 90% is where SPECs may be hidden.
It isn't known yet, but I...
I think you ability is to possess others.
They looked to happen one after another in this bizarre case.
First, I was rather envious about it.
I wanted to be able to make people do ridiculous things at will.
- Why would a woman think of that? - But you know that
a woman wouldn't come up with those sorts of pranks.
Now, it's our intention to acquire a confession.
- Never. - Oh well, let me continue talking.
The mystery here is long.
Please be quick.
I've been observing this incident carefully.
I think I would gradually grow unsatisfied with a possession ability like that.
After all, it can only be with people who share your name.
But this is about the incident committed with your own hands.
Therefore, it's more realistic.
Your SPEC is the ability to possess someone else
yet you still killed Professor Nakayama with your own hands.
Professor Nakayama's body had several wounds.
You strangled him over and over again after an argument.
Since strangulation can take a long time, the murderer would leave evidence behind.
The wounds sustained didn't happen during strangulation.
It's an impossible mischievous feeling.
You killed Professor Nakayama with your own hands.
You have the ability to possess anyone with the same name as you, Hayashi Minoru-san.
This series of incidents was set up.
You possessed others in order to get away with murder.
I'm a scientist.
I'm not satisfied with just reasoning.
What evidence do you have?
I was the one that Muto-san splashed gasoline on.
Actually, he's a lefty.
But at that moment, he used his right hand.
Don't you remember? When that happened
it was you possessing Muto-san and pouring the gasoline.
That isn't evidence.
Like a person using their right hand.
Instead of using the dominant left.
The discovery of the first man showed he was right-handed.
Then what about the fight with the uniformed officer the other day?
It doesn't make any sense.
Then I'm left with no choice.
It's because...
In the midst of your attack on Professor Nakayama, you sustained that injury to your right index finger.
Because of this, you couldn't pull the trigger using your right hand.
QUOD ERAT DEMONSTRANDUM
"what was to be demonstrated"
The proof of an end.
As you said, I am the one that killed Professor Nakayama.
Yeah. As expected of you, Hayashi..
How long are you going to treat me like this?
Hm?
Haven't you ever thought about how much I've contributed to the thesis?
You want all the credit for it.
You made a large mistake thinking I'd stay placid forever.
Everything you said is correct.
I killed that old man with these hands.
With these, I felt as he painfully struggled to breath.
The possession was in order to escape after the crime.
It's regrettable that you decided to use your brilliant mind and SPEC in this way.
From now on, you'll be in jail.
A social outcast until death.
- I'll escape. - Huh?
Toma, Baba-san told me you lied.
He did it.
Even with my left hand, I can't miss at this distance.
- Shikahama-san? - He's being possessed by Hayashi.
Huh?
Die!
Disappointing.
Put down your gun.
You would dare to shoot the body of your senior?
Before this body dies, I'll just escape by possessing someone else.
Well, even if this body dies...
Idiot.
Now I'm here.
Damn it.
Don't move.
You guys can't catch me.
Put down the gun and release Toma.
Don't order me.
Last chance.
Stop aiming the gun at Toma and surrender now.
I always knew the police were stupid.
Die.
Why?
If you're body is wounded, it'll effect the possessed one as well.
You shouldn't leave this body after all.
When you attempt to escape, I'll break a bone on this body.
Ow.
Yes.
In any case, your crime is murdering Professor Nakayama.
You committed a crime in that body.
We prosecute the accused.
With the current laws, not even insanity
can stop you from paying for your crime.
Be prepared you bastard.
She's like an apparition.
Um...
I work for the police.
Excuse me, I'm sorry. I'm just a fake.
A fake?
I taught to read this to have make a profit with fundraising fraud.
I'm very sorry.
I just wanted to hear about the possessions.
Yes.
Huh, it was solved?
Is it this face?
No mistake, I saw it when I touched my brother.
The face of this man in the picture jumped into my mind.
That's not it.
The faces of these people too.
I saw them all in my mind.
What is this?
Isn't this... a mugshot?
It was before the incident.
Maybe your brother...
knew something.
Maybe he was supposed to be killed.
Huh?
Toma-kun, Sebumi-kun. This is a feat, no, this is an achievement.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Well then, shall we celebrate with a feast?
We can get gyouza at Chuubu Nippon.
I'm sorry but I have a prior engagement. Excuse me.
Then, how about Toma-kun?
I have something to take care of after this.
What?
I've gone through great trouble to set the bait.
With the hand I'm not used to.
Fly.
Wake up.
Ninomae.
You were trying to announce the existance of SPEC to the public?
Isn't that just showing off by any means?
I'm me.
By chance, the partners were studying SPECs.
- Partners? - The organization that studied you guys.
Organization?
Somehow I feel relieved.
It looks like you don't understand the sub code.
Oh well. This will be troubling when made public.
Die.
Help me! Help me!
Help me!
Toma!
Yes? Unsolved Cases.
Come again?
While Hayashi was detained...
Killed!?
Of course...
Ninomae.
