The pain and suffering we experienced in the past,
Mama...
Riko...
we can never forget them no matter how much time has passed.
The body found was identified as Morishima Tetsuya-san.
That's why we have to remove the cause.
Rest assured.
Because we're the same, Ren.
Mom... Get me out of here!
Are you okay?
Kadota-sensei.
There's something I want to ask you.
Kawada Ren...
is not Ren, is she?
What makes you think so?
It's just a mere speculation.
But, after seeing your expression just now,
I'm finally convinced.
She is actually...
Ren's older twin sister,
Kawada Riko.
Am I right?
This is really troublesome...
Some students are just too good.
But why?
- Why did you... - I had no choice!
Riko and Ren's mother used to come to me for consultation.
- Thank you. - Come again anytime.
Riko loved to listen to me.
She always listened to me with her eyes shining.
Sensei, you can help me become another person, right?
Can I become any person?
When I think about it now,
what she said at the time...
was probably her SOS signal.
After some time,
her mother only brought Ren to accompany her to the hospital.
"Riko has been showing bad behavior and getting out of control."
"I don't know how to handle her."
Her mother often consulted me while crying.
Then, the arson incident occurred.
Yeah.
I'm so glad, Ren...
Ren, I'm so glad...
I'm so glad... So glad...
Mom?
Ren? Ren!
I'm so glad that you're alive, Ren.
I'm so glad!
At first,
I was also told that Riko was the one who died.
But...
No way! Then... the one who died in the fire...
It was Ren.
But why? Why did you...
I couldn't tell my mom that I am actually Riko.
Because my mom wanted Ren to live, not me.
I'm so glad that you're alive, Ren.
No matter what your mother thinks, you have the right to live as yourself.
- This isn't right, Riko-chan... - But...
my mom will like me.
She will love me.
If I become Ren.
I'm begging you, Sensei! Please help me become Ren!
There's something I want to tell you.
Yeah.
I seriously want to do my best in Go again.
Very well said!
Ren-chan!
The other day, Sanae-chan told me this...
When we were in grade school, Riko-chan often said it.
That you would become the best in Japan.
I think Riko-chan would definitely cheer for you.
I often think of Riko these days.
I wonder if she really is cheering for me.
Ren...
If I can become the best Go player in Japan,
I think I will be able to love myself.
We love you, Ren-chan!
Then...
I hope someone would like me too.
It's him, right? The Pancake Prince.
- Pancake Prince? - Who is it?
So, Kaga-sensei,
please continue to give me your strict guidance!
Please guide her!
Sure.
- Ren-chan, do your best! - It's a miracle of love.
We can see the master and student showdown again!
Yes, it's been a long time.
Thank you.
- I won't go easy on you! - Sure.
Even now, she's already loved enough by people.
- Let's play. - We're looking forward to it.
- Sensei, what you did... - I know!
I know that what I did is illegal and unethical!
But... I had to do that.
To save the parent and child...
Are you telling the truth?
Heh?
Did you really,
in order to save the parent and child,
perform hypnosis on Riko?
Is there any other reason?
Never mind.
What about you? What are you doing to her?
A happiness built on false perceptions...
of reality,
can you really...
call that happiness?

[In the World Which is Neither White nor Black, Panda Laughs]
[Ren's wheel of fate is getting out of control] [A barricade incident occurred at a famous school]
I could see it.
I could finally see it.
The method to defeat you!
Just wait, Kawada Ren!
Today, I'll definitely...
Don't come in!
Eh?
It's all your fault!
Shut up!
I can't trust you all, teachers!
Open the door!
Hey, Miyamoto!
If you try to get in, I will throw him into the pool.
If you call the police or my parents, I'll thrown him into the water right away!
You'll be thrown into the water!
Miyamoto, what do you want?
I was being bullied by him.
The pain was killing me that I even tried to commit suicide.
I'll just die!
But he lied by saying he never bullied me.
And the school believed him!
No one believes me!
Shut up!
- Kazami! - So...
Please call Miss Panda over.
If Miss Panda doesn't come within 2 hours,
this guy will sink to the bottom of the pool!
If you call the police or get in the way before she comes,
I'll drown him in imediately.
Shut up!
Please save me! I never bullied him!
He threatened me and asked for money.
Ask Miss Panda to find the truth behind it.
Hurry up, call Miss Panda over!
This condition is called Anhedonia.
Please save me! I never bullied him!
He threatened me and asked for money.
Ask Miss Panda to find the truth behind it.
In Japanese,
it's called "Kaikan Shoshitsu."
The inability to feel pleasure.
Anhedonia...
is a common symptom of depression,
as well as...
other mental health disorders.
If someone around you has such symptoms...
What about you? What are you doing to her?
As a result, we conclude that there was no bullying taking place at our school.
Why don't you tell them the truth?
- What does that mean? - Principal!
Did the bullying really happen?
Come with me!
Let go of me!
Everyone, at this school,
there was...
Ito-san!
We can't just ignore this case!
Hm?
But the school has asked the media not to cover the incident.
If nothing really happened, why did the school counselor say something like that!
[Kaiki Junior High . Attempted Suicide] [A beautiful school counselor came to the rescue]
I'll just die!
- I will die! - Wait!
I told you that you are not alone, right?
It will be all right.
Come down.
Sensei...
Well, we can't really say that there was nothing happened.
Ito-san, let's go!
Hold...
What about Kamishiro-san? He would like this kind of case.
Looks like he's busy working on another case.
Another case?
Yes.
Excuse me. I want to ask you if you know this person.
I just controlled your wildness and guided it.
After controlling my mind...
He's not our friend...
Do you know anything about him?
- Unfortunately, no. - Is that so? Thank you.
Excuse me...
I want to ask you about this person.
- Do you know anything? - I don't.
Is that so? Thank you.
Damn it!
Sensei, what happened?
What is it?
Miss Panda hasn't come yet?
- Save me! I didn't bully... - Shut up!
If someone is pointing a gun at you, instead of pointing a gun back at them,
with a smile on your face,
just hand out a withered rose to them.
That's how I fight.
Did you watch the video?
He threatened me and asked for money.
Ask Miss Panda to find the truth behind it!
We don't have to take on this case.
Why is that?
Taking action after being called.
If such a precedent was set,
it would only affect our future actions.
If we ignore it, one kid may die.
That's exactly why.
He's using life as a trading tool to meet his demands.
We shouldn't let those who use this method succeed.
Whether it's him, or everyone else.
Can you say the same thing?
If the trading tool they use...
is your child's life.
Please return my daughter to me! Please return my daughter to me!
I'm begging you! I'm begging you!
What are you trying to say?
It's nothing.
Excuse me.
This is the last time we talked about this. And that's that.
Minister.
All right, Mr. No Compliance.
Papa, you're a liar!
Didn't you say you would show me the real panda?
You're right. I'm sorry, Naoki.
But Papa really needs to go.
Why? Because you're a detective?
Because someone asked me for help.
There's someone waiting for me to help them right now.
Shall I go help them or not?
Which one do you want me to do?
I want you to help them.
You're a nice boy, Naoki.
Okay.
Naoki, kindness is strength.
If someone asks for your help,
you have to help them.
Because it will also help you.
I know you can do it.
Ask Miss Panda to find the truth behind it.
Hurry up, call Miss Panda over!
[Wanna eat some pancakes now?]
I'm off!
Kadota-sensei!
Don't come any closer to Morishima Naoki.
If you keep being in touch with him, you will regret it.
Why is that?
I'm afraid I can't tell you the detail,
but... at least I can tell you this.
He...
doesn't like you.
He's just using you!
Hurry up!
Hey, do you have a minute? May I know what happened at your school?
It seems that something has happened at the pool.
At the pool?
I see. Thank you.
Goodbye.
Hold on... Ito-san!
You know this route, huh?
I graduated from this school.
I see.
We can enter from here.
He never really talks about himself.
Is that so? I'm in trouble.
I have no material to write.
But, it's amazing. The program will cover about Naoki.
Is it because Mentalist N was responded well?
Right.
Just tell me anything, like his family or something...
Well...
Can you please not tell anybody that we tell you this?
What?
This leads to the pool, right?
Right.
Ito-san, it's here.
- Is it really here? - Yes.
What is this place?
I told you that this place is connected to the pool area.
- Stop it! - Shut up!
Ito-san!
- Don't! - Hurry up, call her over!
Hey!
Don't!
Move aside.
What is that?
Save me!
Hurry up, call Miss Panda over!
Miss Panda?
Maiko-san.
You have a visitor.
I was always bullied by him.
I never did. Seriously!
Shota-kun!
Haruka-sensei...
- Can you see it? - No.
What is going on?
Shota-kun, I'm so, sorry!
I didn't realize that you had been pushed to this extent.
Kojima-sensei, we don't need you to say such unnecessary things!
Let go of me!
It's okay, Shota-kun. Let's think about it together!
You are not alone!
Haruka-sensei...
Haruka-sensei! Please save me!
- I didn't... - Shut up!
Shota-kun!
Miss Panda has arrived!
Find her!
Where is she?
I'll make it as clear as black and white!
Are you making fun of me? I'll drown him in for real!
Don't!
Shut up!
Shota-kun, you can't do that!
Miss Panda is here!
- That's Panda-sama's voice!? - Where are you?
There's another one? Hold on...
- Where is it? - Panda-sama, where are you?
I'm right here.
Miss Panda is here!
Hey, can anyone show me to them?
So cute!
What's so cute?
Can you see it?
I can't.
Have I kept you waiting? Boy.
All right...
I'll make everything as clear as black and white.
Hey you!
Hey!
To make your gray problem as clear as black and white, a doll is enough.
Don't look down on me!
Why a doll?
Stop it!
I want the real Miss Panda!
You're the one who's looking down on me.
To me, you and the other kid are complete strangers.
Whether you die or live, it won't affect me at all.
"I'll die." "I'll kill him."
Can you not think that we'll obey you as long as you make a commotion?
You dumbass.
Wait!
Just be grateful that I came in the form of a doll.
I also said I'll make your problem as clear as black and white.
Don't be so selfish!
Anyway, I also have a condition.
Huh?
Come outside.
You know I can't do that!
Then... let one person take me to the pool.
If you don't allow that, then I'll just go home!
Okay.
Someone! Hold me and take me to the pool!
Search over there!
Let me go.
I want to be near you.
Can I?
Okay. I will unlock the back door.
But, if other teachers or police come in,
I'll cut the last rope.
He's here! Running upstairs!
Wait!
"Door in the Face."
The opponent intentionally makes a request that will most likely be turned down.
Come outside.
You know I can't do that!
When it gets rejected, they switch to a more reasonable request.
Then let one person take me to the pool.
It's a basic psychological technique.
When he was in 12th grade, his dad was found dead.
The body found was identified as Morishima Tetsuya-san.
What do you want?
Hey, you!
Stop right there!
I received reports from students that some guy from a TV station...
was going around asking about Morishima-kun.
Do you know her?
Miss Panda.
I've heard the students talk about her.
Um... I happened to see it.
When Miss Panda and Morishima Naoki-kun were together.
Morishima-kun?
No way. It must've been someone else!
Huh? He's not here.
Panda-sama!
Shota-kun!
Why did you do something like this?
Because... if I didn't do this,
no one would listen to me!
Save me, Haruka-sensei! He's going to kill me!
Shota-kun, please forgive Kazami-kun! I'm sure he's reflecting on his mistake.
Right, Kazami-kun?
You're wrong, Sensei! I didn't do...
Shut up!
If you talk any further, I'll kill you!
And? What happened? How did he bully you?
Not here.
- Let's go over there. - Okay.
Three months ago, I received a DM...
from his secret SNS account.
It's this.
Shota-kun, you don't have to show it.
It's okay, Sensei...
Hey, assistant!
Okay!
Oh no! Isn't it our cheerleader costume?
It was put on my desk after school.
He said if I didn't want this photo to be spread on SNS,
I had to put 10.000 yen...
into his desk so that no one would notice it.
After I did what I had been told,
he asked me to put 20.000 yen into his desk the next day.
And the next day... the next day too... the day after that too.
You should have just refused doing that.
I replied so many times saying that I wanted him to stop.
But, if I told anyone about this,
and if I told the school,
or called him,
he said he would spread my photos online right away.
My savings were all gone.… I even stole my parents' money.
At that time,
Haruka-sensei asked me what had happened.
You gathered up your courage, and told me everything.
You said you'd do something about it, and that I wasn't alone.
You said everything should be fine then.
But...
"You told Haruka-sensei about me, huh?
"I'll spread your photos on the internet now."
"It will make you want to die."
"Go die, you rubbish pervert!"
He's over here!
So I thought I had to die...
Shota-kun...
After my suicide attempt video was posted online,
I thought everyone could finally understand me.
But... the vice principal, and the principal...
forced me to say that there was no bullying.
Otherwise, I would be expelled.
No matter what I said, they acted as if nothing had happened.
But, I know Miss Panda...
will... - Will make it as clear as black and white, right?
It will be okay. I understand it very well.
- Understand what? - Huh, well...
You mean, he was involved in bullying?
He may not have been aware of it, but...
Then, is it okay to call him "black-hearted"?
"Black-hearted"? What a horrible thing to say!
Well... it's such a shame!
He...
doesn't like you!
He's just using you!
What do you mean by, "using me"?
For his experiment!
His making you his guinea pig!
I don't mind.
I'm rather happy.
What?
It means that I am helping him, right?
Also, even if he doesn't like me now,
I will do my best...
to make him like me.
Panda-sama!
- She's here! - Miss Panda!
Take a good shot.
For a black-hearted bully like you,
I'll give a punishment!
Let go of me! I have to save him!
Save him? Why?
Didn't you want to throw him into the pool?
Please let me! He's my friend!
Your friend?
What's going on?
Anyway, it's completely exposed. Your self-directed performance.
Self-directed performance?
But... I knew it from the beginning.
Yeah, I knew it from the beginning.
The tension when your life is in danger,
and when you are lying...
cause completely different physical reactions.
From the video, you guys obviously have more of the latter than the former.
Save me! I didn't do any bullying!
He threatened me and asked for money.
Ask Miss Panda to find the truth behind it.
Hurry up, call Miss Panda over!
I could tell right away, that it was just your own performance.
Why? Why did you...
Someone was messing with us.
Messing with you?
I went to his house after he attempted suicide.
I asked him what had happened.
We...
had been friends since we were kids.
After entering junior high, we gradually stopped hanging out with each other.
I was startled when he came to my house.
Then I said,
"How dare you asked me when you know it was because of you?"
But I didn't send those messages.
Then, we realized.
That someone was messing with us.
Even if we asked who they were,
we thought they wouldn't tell us.
So we decided to put on an act .
By creating a situation where Kazami-kun was about to be killed, we thought that person might tell us.
I see...
You guys are smart!
You're too naive.
You guys are kids after all.
Those who could turn themselves in after seeing someone is about to die...
wouldn't do such a mean thing.
They couldn't care less whether you die or not.
There are such people in this world.
So, it's time to stop.
This method is pointless.
Then, who was it?
The person who pretended to be you and sent those messages.
Ah, try replying to that person now.
Oh well… who will receive the message?
Huh?
It's me!
That's...
But this isn't mine...
Whose phone is it?
Face recognition.
All right! The answer is...
this is Haruka-sensei's cellphone.
Sensei... why?
How... how did you...
The timing was always too perfect for you.
When you stopped his suicide attempt.
Miyamoto-kun seems to try to commit suicide.
Isn't that insane?
- I'll just die! - Wait!
I told you that you are not alone, right?
Come down.
It's okay.
Four years ago,
when your students were in chaos and about to sneak out of school, you happened to be there.
Two years ago, you stopped a female student's suicide attempt.
Life doesn't go that smoothly.
You can't always make it.
When you notice it, it's already too late.
Just like right now.
Haruka-sensei...
Why?
Because it was so boring.
There are only nice students in this school.
I had no chance to show myself at all.
Just... for that reason...
Why... why did you choose me?
You look like a victim of a bully.
Looking at you irritates me.
In this kind of method,
if you directly tell the other party to stop, then it'll be over.
You can't say it, right?
Sorry!
Go on!
Did you put the costume on his desk?
Yeah.
Don't you have a habit of smelling everything?
You watch your student really well.
I think you must be...
a stalker!
That's creepy.
a genuine and excellent school counselor.
Well, it's too late. Such a shame.
Thank you very much.
For helping me.
I didn't do it for you.
I did it for myself.
People help others for themselves.
Get stronger and help others.
It was your weakness that caused this incident.
I will.
Kindness is strength.
If someone asks for your help,
you have to help them.
Because it will also help you.
I know you can do it.
Huh? Panda-sama?
Panda-sama!
Panda-sama, where did you go?
Panda-sama!
That's right, she's become really positive.
Somehow she reminds me of Riko-chan a little.
I think I did a good job making this Ohagi. Have some.
[Koala Guy]
I'm not satisfied at all, this time.
This time, I was the one who made the clear conclusion.
I'll let you riot next time.
Looking forward!
She is actually...
Ren's older twin sister,
Kawada Riko… Am I right?
Get me out of here!
Riko.
I'm Panda!
Yeah.
Good work today.
Panda-sama revealed the truth perfectly.
She was so cool!
As a genius beautiful girl Go girl,
I will also show my best in the world of Go. Please support me.
He even takes after the unnecessary personality traits.
Excuse me.
Kaga-san, do you know Miss Panda?
Yeah. My wife loves her.
What if...
Ren-chan turns out to be the Miss Panda?
What?
Can I have a minute?
Keeper-san.
