"Yes"?

The smell of her lipstick is still on your lips

I noticed the smell of polyglycerin in the red coloring of her lipstick in

It was from 2 hours ago and multiple times

My nose doesn't make mistakes

Stop making it sound I got out of rehab

You know I was formerly in organized crime policework

There are plenty of women in the police right?

You have chances to meet women right? That's completely unrelated

The singles party right was useless

Don't worry about it I'm not

Going beyond the establishment Handling more difficult matters

Reviewing it from a different angle

And breaking cases!

And now, our ace. Trained in the US...

He's a greatly skilled consultant

What? A consultant?

From Central Profiling of the FBI

He comes in when there is no evidence or fingerprints at the crime scene

You, Komukai-san, are the third person Your chaperone

Chaperone?

Alright, everyone. Let's head to the crime scene

Wait... what do you mean?

What kind of person is he?

They call him a "sniffer" in the FBI

Sniffer?

How do you say it...

Basically, a nose-man

Nose-man?

The victim is Sajima Construction's Isamu Sasaki 53 years old

He was brought here around 11 pm?

He died from being shot by something in the head

So this is the third person?

The first is an executive consultant The second is is a department for a construction manufacturer

Found dead with a hole between the eyes

You can tell from the smell?

This one has not had contact with the opposite sex for awhile

Consumed too much alcohol last night

Had a beef rice bowl for breakfast while crying alone. Hey!

Crying alone? You were crying?

The victim fell from here

The victim is male in his late 30's or early 40's

Non-smoker. Low household income

And a stomach ulcer

Wow, you're amazing... Age shows from the scent

The smell of nonenal

The suspect is probably middle aged

The scent of diacetyl is strong

Along with the smell of methional and deteriorated oil

And the smell of dry noodles. Cup noodles

The smell is strong, so he must have it a lot

You don't need to write this down?

The smell of iron in blood Iron？

Oct-1-en-3-one

A lipid on skin that reacts with iron. An oxide

A sharp iron｡

That means the weapon was a nail

You mean a nail between the eyes? How? Pushed by what?

You idiot this isn't the curse of Ushi no toki mairi (folklore)

Really? You can tell all this? Up to this point

That's amazing...

Ah！

Sorry I didn't know you were allergic to pigeons

Not only pigeons

No worries, I know a good doctor

She's also beautiful

I thought you liked your women older

Hey doc sorry for the sudden intrusion

Ah, well I heard rumours

Please

People's olfactory sensors are usually...

able to detect about 800 proteins

Of which, 400 are usually inert

But Hanaoka-san, those 400...

are active for you

According to US doctors

I have about 870 olfactory receptors

Intriguing

So you can figure out everything from the smell?

Yes

Your perfume is Mccann Gold Go on

You enjoy pool swimming

The smell of chlorine is strong

I'm a bit uncomfortable but wow

And

You were kissing this morning What? What!

Not only this morning But last night and the day before

Multiple times a day

Furthermore, very aggressively Aggressively?

You were kissing

A toy poodle. A dog. A dog?

I can tell from the smell of saliva

A female doctor in her late 30's who kisses her dog multiple times a day

I am correct about you right?

Not happy about that at all What?

Let me take a look

Maybe I shouldn't have brought you Why?

You mind keeping your eyes on the road
