Case File N° 221: Kabukicho (歌舞伎町シャーロック)

Tell me the password.

Mycroft was lying when he said you were trying to blackmail Moran.

You're not after money. You want the contents of the drive itself.

Perfect deduction.

Huh? Really?

I can't imagine someone like her taking a big risk

blackmailing Moran just days before marrying someone rich.

Now open it up.

I don't know the password myself.

That's why my plan was to get out of Japan where I could crack it in peace.

Why go through all that effort?

Well, have a good time trying to get it open.

Where did Jack the Ripper vanish to?

It's been six months since the murder of Ward Mayor Moran's daughter,

and no new murders have occurred since then.

"Murders stopped after the death of Ward Mayor Moran's daughter Alexandra" and no new murders have occurred since then.

"Murders stopped after the death of Ward Mayor Moran's daughter Alexandra" I want to find the man who killed my daughter as soon as possible...

"A Word From Ward Mayor Moran" I want to find the man who killed my daughter as soon as possible...

"A Word From Ward Mayor Moran" But the wounds of the surviving families will never heal.

The serial killer is still out there somewhere, looking for his next targ--

Sorry.

That's something you don't see every day.

Irene-san!

What are you doing here?

"Don't Take Off the Swimsuit" What are you doing here?

"Don't Take Off the Swimsuit" None of your business.

"Don't Take Off the Swimsuit" She's helping out around the bar.

She's helping out around the bar.

What?

You know how Mrs. Hudson's had bad back pain recently, right?

So she said she'd get a room nearby and help out!

Wow, what an angel!

Go clean the bathrooms, please!

Roger!

I eliminated the filth from around the beer taps.

So if you could talk to someone and get me an ID for the West Side--

Clean below the sink, too.

Understood!

-Pathetic.

--Hey there. --Pathetic.

Hey, Moriarty.

Hi there.

Wow, what a cute kid.

Wow, we hired an old lady to be our new part-timer.

Thank you so much!

Here you go!

When do I need to give it back?

It's yours forever.

You're leaving already?

Yeah.

Mrs. Hudson, is your back okay?

It's not a bad back. It's just that time of the month.

Get started.

My name is Yui Shirota.

"Client" My name is Yui Shirota.

"Client" My old husband is trying

to steal away my daughter, Emiri.

"Client's Daughter" to steal away my daughter, Emiri.

He found another woman and left me

almost immediately after I got pregnant.

After that, Emiri and I never had much money, but we were happy together.

But last week...

My husband, who'd never bothered filing for divorce, called me out of nowhere...

And said he wanted to take Emiri.

Why?

I don't know. Of course, I refused.

And he threatened me with my secret.

Secret?

I've always had a weak constitution,

and last year, all the stress caught up with me...

The doctors said it would be difficult for me to raise a child on my own.

But I can't imagine leaving my daughter.

So I paid the doctor off...

And I was sent this.

This medical chart has the real name of my disease.

If I don't hand her over,

he'll turn it over to the courts and sue for parental rights.

So you want us to find the original?

Yes. And steal it.

So this is S Rank, no bonus. One million yen.

I'm busy. I'll be passing.

You just want to fap, don't you?

So what's your ex like?

His name is Milverton.

He used to write for a weekly paper, but when I asked, I was told he retired.

A former co-worker heard that he was probably working in Kabukicho.

But they had no idea where...

So it'll be easy, then.

It's easy for us to find somebody in Kabukicho.

I've never seen him though...

What will you do?

This is stupid. I'm not taking it, obviously.

I'm in.

Okay. Nobody's using Sherlock's pager.

I'll be your partner today. Let's do our best, Johnwa Kobayashi-san.

Huh?

Did you call?

"Detective's Row House" When the sun sets in other towns,

in our town the neon lights turn on.

If you want gold and silver...

...steal the secret that would tear apart daughter and mother.

A light shines in the detective' eyes.

This row house is filled with the strangest of men,

and people call it, "The Detective's Row House."

A million yen to the person who finds Yuiyui's medical chart.

Ready... go!

Hey!

Are you okay? You look red.

Oh, no! Your fever is terrible!

I'm taking you to the hospital.

Sherlock, hold down the fort!

"Detective Section"

Yuck!

"Mahjong Parlor on the Outskirts of Kabukicho"

Um, what are we doing here?

If he lives here in this city and Mrs. Hudson doesn't know him,

there must be a pretty good reason.

There.

Who's that?

"Don of the Publishing World" Tony Shigeru.

"Don of the Publishing World" The don of the publishing world.

"Don of the Publishing World" Nothing happens in the industry without him knowing it.

Nothing happens in the industry without him knowing it.

Milverton was a former journalist.

What does the famous Irene Adler want with me?

I want info on Milverton.

And what's in it for me?

Money?

I'm not interested in that.

What about a scoop on the mayor?

So Moran lied about his degrees, huh?

That's a good scoop.

I call Milverton the king of all blackmailers.

The king of all blackmailers?

He finds information on celebrities and uses it to blackmail them.

On the surface, he's a successful entrepreneur, though.

Running what kind of business?

Lots.

He uses a variety of fake names to operate in several different fields.

I'll send you a list later.

Do you know where he lives?

I've heard he sleeps out of one of his businesses.

But I don't know which one.

So we'll have to hit them all up one by one, huh?

By the way,

he supposedly has been making nightly visits to a favorite place of his.

And he looks completely different than he did when he was a reporter.

I was so astonished by the change that I wrote a poem!

What do you mean?

What's in it for me?

Fine.

I'll give you a scoop on me next.

How about Moran's measurements?

No way. He's an old man, not some young girl.

Then what is it?

Hey, what are you doing?

-Give that back!

--Stop! --Give that back!

Don't cry! Please!

Piggy! Mr. Piggy!

I'm exhausted...

We searched everywhere and came up completely empty-handed, huh?

"House of Five Laughs Tsurutake"

"Flower Viewing Bar Arinsu"

"Life Insurance"

"Life Insurance" Irene-san, this is the place Shigeru-san was talking about, right?

Irene-san, this is the place Shigeru-san was talking about, right?

Yes. That's right.

I looked around the shop and I don't see anybody matching his description.

And this information tells me exactly nothing!

"He's Like Othello Shigeru" And this information tells me exactly nothing!

I'm not interested in complaints.

Got it!

-Tell the girl who just took the beer

--Dark skin, round ears... --Tell the girl who just took the beer

--Dark skin, round ears... --to table 8 that she needs to show more leg.

White skin, round ears.

White to black!

Just like Othello!

Irene, I found Milverton!

Meet me in Sherlock's room tomorrow.
