OSHI NO KO

From the credit card found on the body, we've identified the victim as...

Gorou Amamiya.

Kakurezato

That was the last thing I expected to happen on a music video shoot.

Ruby, if you can't shoot tomorrow, we can—

Don't worry. I'll be fine.

Get some rest.

Akane-chan isn't back yet?

Sorry you had to go through that because of me.

Why are you apologizing? It's not your fault.

Nah, it is.

Ai's Fan For All Eternity!!!

I know you didn't want to see that decayed, grotesque thing.

Sorry.

I'm really sorry.

There you go,

trying to shoulder it all by yourself again.

Do you think everything bad that happens in the world is your fault?

Of course not.

I heard the police saying it was probably a murder victim.

Obviously the murderer is to blame, then.

Why would you need to feel responsible?!

There's no way you should!

You think?

I do!

But...

I was hoping.

Hoping you might find that corpse, Akane.

I deliberately fed you information and nudged you towards finding it.

And if no one found it, I was okay with that, too.

It's got nothing to do with me anymore.

Heck, it might've even been better if it was never found.

But...

Deep down, I guess I still wanted someone to find it.

Akane, thank you for that.

Oh.

So that was your...

I didn't do anything, though. We only found him by accident.

Even then, I set you up.

I've been using you all this time.

To find my dad. To find that corpse.

For lots of other things, too.

I'm sorry for everything.

Yeah, I knew.

I finally understand. I think I can put my feelings into words now.

You're a kind soul who tries to shoulder everything yourself.

So I wanted to share in your burdens, guilt and all.

But I get it.

Oh, with this...

Aqua-kun...

...I can say goodbye.

Aqua-kun, you're better off without me, aren't you?

I'd only make things harder for you, wouldn't I?

Huh?

I was planning to talk things out with you during this trip.

I figured we could break up with a smile.

What do I do?

Stop.

I'm sorry. This isn't how I meant to do this.

Stop it!

I wasn't going to cry.

Why won't my tears stop? But on stage...

They always stop right away.

I should've said this sooner.

My quest for revenge is over.

The body's been found, too.

So...

From now on,

I want to be there for you.

Ai's Fan For All Eternity!!!

Sensei.

Ooh, naughty, naughty.

You took that from the corpse, didn't you?

Bad girl. You shouldn't be doing that.

Who are you?

Were you close to that doctor somehow, miss?

If so, I understand how you feel.

What would a kid like you know?

Please just leave me alone.

I'm in a seriously bad mood right now.

Ooh, scary!

Are you sure, though?

I can tell you what you want to know.

Sounds like last night was pretty rough.

We're shooting outdoors today.

If you're not feeling up to it, feel free to take the day off.

Ruby. She's talking to you.

Huh?

Oh, yeah. I'll be fine.

Ugh, I hate outdoor music video shoots.

It's freezing, and we have to sing and dance in totally out-of-season clothes?

Tremble, tremble!

I've had to run around Kujukuri Beach in winter to shoot a summery swimsuit scene,

and I've also had to run around in a coat and scarf on a blazing summer afternoon.

Huh...

Actors are just manual laborers at the end of the day.

sighhhh

What I want to know?

Many moons ago,

a famous idol gave birth here in secret.

That doctor who died?

I hear he was her attending physician.

He'd been considered missing for ages, and the day he disappeared...

was the day that selfsame idol gave birth.

How could he vanish on such an important day?

Actually, maybe he vanished because it was such an important day.

It sounds fishy, doesn't it?

That's not the only fishy part, though.

Apparently,

some shady men had been hanging around the hospital.

At the time, one was a college-aged guy,

and the other was a boy in middle school.

Suspect in Ai of B-Komachi's Murder Found Dead

The former was identified a few years later.

He was the college kid who stabbed and killed the idol, Ai, in her apartment.

He was a crazed fan—a stalker.

Who was the other one?

Hmm?

You said there were two guys.

Who knows?

Isn't that your job to find out?

Cut.
