Emergency Interrogation Room (緊急取調室)

Excuse us. Please make way for us!

Tachikawa-city, Tokyo March 19, Tamagawa riverbed

A man is dead in the parked car.

Criminal Lab just arrived and is about to start the investigation. Over.

Lock and load!

Commence fire!

Emergency Interrogation Detective Nakata Zenjiro

Well, not bad.

Emergency Interrogation Detective Koishikawa Haruo

I should have done better.

Emergency Interrogation Detective Hishimoto Susumu

Fabulous!

Check this.

Wow, you did very well.

Get out of my way, boys!

What the hell are you doing here?

Can't you tell? I'm doing target practice.

Get lost!

This is a sanctuary for the detectives who work at the crime scene.

MPD, 1st Division Rank 1 Deputy Watanabe Tetsuji

MPD, 1st Division Rank 1 Deputy Chief Kenmotsu Daijiro

Lock and load!

Commence fire!

Cease fire!

Well done!

I don't wear the red badge for nothing.

That's an elite detective of 1st Division!

Shut up!

You're good for nothing except the interrogation.

A gun isn't your toy!

This is for sharpening my power of concentration.

Emergency Interrogation Detective Makabe Yukiko

Because the interrogation is like a gun battle.

Take your place!

Check right and left!

Lock and load!

What was going on?

I have no idea.

Why did a victim open an umbrella in the car?

I have no idea.

It's very sunny.

Thank you for your hard work.

We're heading to PS.

Excuse me.

I have something to tell you.

Ah, Ms, this isn't a safe place to stay.

A dead man is Komaki of the express courier service, isn't it?

Ms...What?

Do you know him?

Yes.

I...killed him.

Here's your coffee.

Thank you.

This betrays your career as former SIT, doesn't it?

The coffee after having won a game tastes especially good.

The coffee that you make always tastes good!

You guys become meaner, don't you?

Having fun?

I'll check the result of target practice later.

A suspect of Tamagawa-riverbed incident was arrested.

Emergency Interrogation Commissioner Kajiyama Katsutoshi

Everybody, it's your turn.

Whose turn is it this time?

Paper, rock, scissors?

Commissioner, you decide.

Well, I choose Zen and Makabe.

All right!

What sort of person is a suspect?

It's a tough enemy.

I want to ask you one more time.

Did you really kill him?

What? Who said that?

What? Ms.?

I'm sorry. I'm such an old woman.

Episode1 A woman opening an umbrella

Attention!

MPD, 1st Division Chief Sawatari Iwao

We hold the meeting to discuss strategy for pursuing the express man murder case of Tamagawa riverbed.

Since this is the important issue, I asked Chief Iwaki to present in this meeting.

MPD, Chief of Criminal Investigations Iwaki Kazuhisa

The victim is Komaki Shusuke, 28.

He is an employee of Toyokaze Transport Co.

March 19, 1:10 pm,

His dead body was found in the delivery truck parked at Tamagawa riverbed.

The cause of death is a drug overdose death.

The person who surrendered to police is Shirakawa Tamiko.

She is 77, born in Feb 7, 1940.

She lives in the apartment where is in victim's delivery route by herself.

Why did he open an umbrella in the car?

It was a sunny day of 0 % of probability precipitation.

According to the medical examiner, he must have grabbed whatever comes handy since having been suffered from the pain.

The result of an autopsy,

Arsenious Acid is found from the tea in the residual material in the stomach.

Arsenious Acid

He is thought to die within 3 hours after he drank poisoned tea.

We found 4 different fingerprints from a bottle that was left in the car.

Fingerprint A is victim's.

Fingerprint B is probably a female.

Fingerprint C and D are kids.

But Fingerprint B didn't match with Shirakawa Tamiko.

FYI, he has a wife. But her fingerprint didn't match with Fingerprint B either.

And they didn't have a kid.

How did he get kid's fingerprints since he didn't have a kid?

Before that, I'm concerning about Arsenic.

A lethal dose of Arsenic is between 0.1g and 0.3g.

If a suspect mixed it with tea,

didn't tea have an unpleasant odor?

It's a thermos bottle and Sage tea that has a strong smell was in it.

It's believed when poison volatilized by the steam, his paralysis got worse rapidly.

Sage tea?

It's probably for reducing acid smell.

By the way, we haven't been able to find Arsenic from her home.

She grows many kinds of plants in the balcony.

But there's no Sage.

Did she really kill a man?

Isn't that a sign of dementia?

Just to make sure, we had her checked for dementia,

the result was negative.

Since it is expected that this case may be sent to the trial by jury,

I let Emergency Interrogation do a thorough investigation.

But you should treat a suspect loyally.

An 89-year old man was dead while under interrogation of shoplifting in Kanagawa prefectural police station the other day.

That was Myocardial Infarction from aging.

Yes, but the public think that the police tormented him to death.

MPD have to present the image that we protect the human rights of the elderly people to the public.

In other words, be nice to the elderly people in front of the camera.

He means that we're being exposed to the scrutiny of the public.

I'll keep that in mind.

Zen, I'm not worrying about you.

Wait a second!

Do you ask me to go easy on them?

No matter how old they are, a murderer is a murderer.

I'll expose them completely.

Shirakawa Tamiko, The first questioning

Please have a seat.

Nice to meet you.

Emergency Interrogation...

Emergency?

We're from Emergency Interrogation.

We're interrogation specialists.

This room has the visualization system.

Everything is videotaped.

It's for both the trial and the investigation,

and also for protecting the human rights of the suspect.

Thank you very much.

Shirakawa Tamiko.

You surrendered yourself to Tachikawa South police station and told them that you killed Komaki Shusuke.

Is it correct?

I'm sorry.

What's the nature of your relationship with Komaki?

He was a deliveryman who sometimes delivered a package to me.

He was very friendly to a person like me.

A person like me?

I'm hated by all neighbors.

How did you kill him?

I gave him a bottle of poisoned tea.

What kind of bottle was that?

Well...

It was the color of the sky.

I think that it was aqua blue.

Aqua blue?

She is quite modern for her age.

The color of a bottle wasn't announced to the media, right?

We doesn't announce anything about the bottle and the type of tea.

Who want to kill a friendly deliveryman without any reason?

Because...I'm very old...

The human rights.

Let's remember together, Grandma!

Komaki Shusuke, 28 years old.

He has a wife of the same age as he.

He was in charge of your area from March last year.

He had a good reputation from the company and the customers.

Yes, don't be rush.

Take time and remember as much as you can.

I don't have to take time...

His friendliness had a catch.

A catch?

Graffiti.

Graffiti?

I sprayed graffiti on the wall.

Graffiti?

Does that remind you something?

Yes.

I found the eye-catching graffiti on the wall.

So, I took a picture just in case.

Good job! Nabe!

Thanks to you, Motsu!

You don't have to say that.

That's the one.

What?

Do you mean this?

Do you know what this means?

Fuxx You!

I've had a chance to live in the foreign countries due to my husband circumstances.

That's why you knew aqua blue.

So, does this graffiti have something to do with Komaki?

Shirakawa, you sprayed graffiti on the wall, didn't you?

I witnessed that.

Neighbors are making a fuss about that graffiti right now, aren't they?

I've heard that Community Association would complain about that to the police.
