The first 137 lines.
I'd completely assumed that the reason you came to our division was to protect the Kambe family.
And that covering up for the terrorism at the embassy was your doing...
I didn't think we were after the same thing.
So both of you wanted to learn the truth behind Sayuri Kambe's death 19 years ago.
It seems there's this substance called adollium at the root of this case.
But I have no idea what that is.
What should we do with Takei?
I don't think he knows about everything, but he should have more information we can draw out.
We'll do the interrogation here. I can't trust the police.
This is the sole meuniere.
I prefer sashimi or a soy sauce simmered dish.
Can you get me chopsticks?
Yes, sir.
Where's Kato?
Oh, I sent him out on an errand.
"MODERN CRIME PREVENTION TASK FORCE PREPARATION ROOM" Oh, I sent him out on an errand.
He collected quite a bit.
How many boxes are there?
Are you working together with Cho-san?
Yes.
He's almost at retirement age, too.
"KIYOMIZU"
Are these Cho-san's too?
He's been occupying my locker for 19 years.
I can finally get rid of this nuisance.
Tell him that he's old now, and to take it easy.
I will.
"24 HOURS INTO CONFINEMENT"
I'm coming in.
How about a drink?
They don't have Japanese saké here, but I'm sure it's damn good booze.
Here.
It's been 19 years since I last drank with you like this.
You still held onto those.
Both of us have gotten old.
I promise I won't do anything nefarious.
There's no way I can believe something like that!
I'm putting everything on the line for this research.
I won't let anyone get in my way.
There's nothing more for us to talk about.
Hey, wait! Sayuri!
"KAMBE HEAVY INDUSTRIES" The Third Laboratory. This is the institution that your dad was a part of.
The Third Laboratory. This is the institution that your dad was a part of.
I presume this is where he met Sayuri Kambe, too.
However, in the current organization chart, that name doesn't exist.
I did a thorough investigation about this lab back then,
but I never figured out where it was located, let alone what it was researching.
So, I'm leaving this end to you.
Then Kambe, we can split up and--
If there's anything you need, talk to my butler, Hattori.
Hold on a second.
What?
You're telling me to research this by myself?
Is there something else you need to do?
That said, even if I looked it up after all this time...
"SHIGEMARU AND SAYURI, AND THEIR SON DAISUKE (PRESUMED)"
What was Shigemaru Kambe's role at the Third Laboratory?
I cannot answer that.
Where was the Third Laboratory located?
I cannot answer that.
Who was Sayuri Kambe's employer after she graduated from college?
I cannot answer that.
It refuses to answer any questions regarding your father and mother.
I don't care how trivial the findings are. Can you research both of them?
As you wish.
"30 HOURS INTO CONFINEMENT"
"30 HOURS INTO CONFINEMENT" You were instructed by Saiki, the Criminal Affairs director at the time,
You were instructed by Saiki, the Criminal Affairs director at the time,
to give thorough reports on the state of the investigation,
and you handed over the keys to that locker to Saiki as well.
Isn't that right?
What was Saiki's objective? Who had his back?
I'm telling you, there's no way I would know.
If I knew, just like Mr. Saiki, I would be...
Six months after the investigation for Sayuri Kambe's murder was called off,
Saiki died from a car accident.
They killed him to silence him, right?
You know something about that locker, don't you?
Damn it!
"LOCATION UNKNOWN"
"LOCATION UNKNOWN" Location, huh?
"SHIGEMARU KAMBE THIRD LABORATORY"
"Shigemaru Kambe" "First Japanese physicist to advocate energy created from imaginary numbers
and the existence of a higher order thereof. His wife was also a physicist, Sayuri Kambe (deceased)."
Do you know something by the name of adollium?
Unforgivable!
I will never forgive her!
There is nothing you can do now.
Hattori! Get the car ready!
Lies.
Shigemaru and Sayuri are no longer in this world.
Lies.
Complications in their marriage led to Mother leaving the house,
and Father, outraged by that, followed her and killed her.
And suffering from his guilty conscience, he committed suicide.
Are all these true?
You should forget these things already.
What about the Third Laboratory?
Father and Mother were arguing over adollium.
What in the world is adollium?
You should not get involved with this any further.
Mr. Daisuke.
What?
May I have a moment?
What's the meaning of this?
Hey!
Please bear with me for a while.
It's about HEUSC. It seems it's one step ahead of us and erasing information.
I believe that HEUSC is listening to our conversations
not only from audio, but also by the movements of our lips.
Therefore, I realize this is discourteous of me, but...
Is the guy who went to open the locker in this lineup?
"35 HOURS INTO CONFINEMENT"
Back when you were in the device that gets into your memories, you said...
I can't...
If I look, I'll be murdered.
If I stay here, he'll...
"He"? Who's "he"?
I don't know.
It's true! I really don't know!
Would you recognize him if you saw his face?
That's...
But...
You couldn't answer me when I asked for a name.
But you saw his face, right?
Cho-san, let's stop already.
Since the task force disbanded, I've been continuing the investigation for 19 years.
This is the only thing left in my life.
And you... What about you, Takei?
Hey! Kambe...
Mr. Kato.
I want to decode this.
Just a bit more.
I am terribly sorry, but due to reflecting light,
it seems it wasn't a part of the image data in this photo to begin with.
Damn it. It's so close, too.
Bring up the woods in the back.
