Yakusoku ~ 16-nenme no Shinjitsu

《A person with a secret has two faces》

16 years ago, a series of murders occurred in this town →

Why are you, the daughter of the perpetrator, here in this town?

Everyone has their own secrets.

I want you to keep an eye on her.

《Which one is the real face?》

Don't you have any marbles left?

Aoi Welcome home. I've wanted to see you for a long time.

If Aoi comes back→

Let's accept it with a smile.

We've always been best friends. (Momo) That's what it is.

《Or are both true...》

Fuwa-kun...

Nothing is finished yet.→

Everything will become clear from now on.

《Maybe even he himself doesn't know that》

Ha... ha... ha!? (Gun!)

The victim found his driver's license in his possession →

It has been identified as Wakana Umezaki, 31 years old, who lives in Shinjuku Ward.

The cause of death is suspected to be blood loss due to trauma to the back of the head.

The estimated time of death was around 5pm yesterday evening.

In the mouth as a characteristic of the corpse →

It was packed with multiple marbles.

Marbles happened in this town a long time ago...

Yeah. 16 years ago →

It is thought that this was a copycat of the Mochino-cho women's serial murder case.

Just kidding! >> Why now...

What was this town thinking about that incident?

I think I've overcome it...

The bad reputation still hasn't completely disappeared.

It's said to be a devil's town. (Kousaka) If it's being compared to that incident →

We will continue to need to be vigilant.

Is it really a copycat criminal? >> What does that mean?

It's obvious that you're conscious of that incident...

I don't think it should be labeled as imitation.

What does that mean?

Are you sure you want to say it's the same culprit?

No, I'm sure that's the culprit...

Shortly after his arrest, his chronic illness worsened and he died.

Mr. Kiryu, this is what you want to say.

The real culprit of that incident is still in this town →

The person arrested and sent to prison at that time was found guilty.

Guilt!?

Incidents similar to those back then are actually happening now→

I think that this possibility should also be taken into consideration.

>> Wait, wait...The only thing in common with the incident back then is the marbles.

The method of killing is different.

Both victims at that time were strangled and murdered.

This time, the criminal was fighting with the victim...

Kya――!!

By pushing me away →

I killed him in a way I didn't intend...

The difference in killing methods may not be a big problem.

Saki Ishioka, who ran away from home the day before yesterday, →

A woman with a marble in her hand spoke to me.

I just showed Saki-san a photo of Umezaki-san →

I testified that there was a high possibility that it was this woman.

What do you mean? (Aoi) Mr. Umezaki→

He must have been asking about the incident that happened 16 years ago.

The real culprit found out and killed her.

>> The real culprit is…the culprit at the time →

What is the basis for thinking that it is a crime?

There is nothing at the moment.

>> That's right! >> Enough is enough.

First, prioritize interviews and check security cameras at various locations.

All you have to do is grab the culprit's tail.

We are not allowed to talk about marbles. It would be troublesome if the media found it interesting.

Please act quickly to find a solution as soon as possible.

Yes.

Kiryu: Can I have a moment? (Aoi) Yes.

Chief. >> What happened?

You know about her past, right?

>> What do you mean?

She is Yasuo Hayami's daughter, right?

>>No one has noticed yet.

Please protect my privacy.

I never expected an incident like this to happen.→

As soon as Aoi came to this town...

I know how painful it feels.

I want to believe in my father, that's right.

I'll say it now, but back then I strongly doubted Yasuo's guilt.

(Detectives)

[Chief: This incident→

I think that careful re-cleaning is necessary once again.→

To conclude the investigation at this stage...]

[I heard that you are acquainted with the suspect→

Don't interfere with personal feelings]

But I'm calm about it now.

There is physical evidence and eyewitness testimony.→

Above all, he himself confessed to the crime.→

Furthermore, Yasuo was arrested and died of illness, and the crimes stopped.→

That's the truth.

I hate to say this, but...→

Every human being has a front face and a back face.

Family members and people close to you never see your face behind the scenes.

I…｡ >> To Aoi →

I will ask you to be removed from the investigation of this case.→

If you want to work as a detective in this town →

Put an end to that incident. That is an absolute condition.

My father told me.

When we met for the first time right after the incident...

\It's time/

I... I've always believed in my father's innocence...

Enough, don't say any more.

I'm buying you as a detective.

Don't destroy what you've built up.

This incident is nothing other than a malicious copycat.

《Certainly there is no solid evidence...》

(Aoi)

>>

《But with so many memories inside me→

I was confident…→

My father is not a murderer...

《And...→

The truth can always be revealed...

Nothing is finished yet.

📱(vibrator sound)

Ah, Aoi! (Aoi) Thank you for waiting.

>> I'm sorry, please call me. (Aoi) No.

>> We were just talking about old times.

You don't have to say anything. (Aoi) An old story?

>>See, once upon a time, Fuwa-kun wasn't in the drama club→

When we said that we would choose the leading actress from our division...→

Megumi: You thought you were the one to be chosen, not Aoi.

Because Fuwa-kun told me something.

``Why don't you try being an actor?''

I was often told that ``Momo looks like she'd be good at acting,'' right?

Is that so? Eh, I took it seriously and lost out.

(Amakusa)

I was in shock at that time.

At that time, I didn't know that Fuwa-kun and Aoi were in love with each other.

It was obvious though. >> Is that so?

Eh... Fuwa-kun's completed scenario →

It was clearly written with Aoi in mind.

Aoi thought so too, right?

Aoi?

Should we stop talking about this? →

Look, there were many things going on with Aoi in the past...

I haven't read it.

>> Huh?

Was the movie scenario completed at that time?

>> Eh, yeah. Aoi, haven't you read it?

Really?

Why...?

Fuwa-kun said he would show it to me once it was perfect.

>> Then Aoi, uh... >> Wait! →

That's fine. >> But...

In the end, the movie wasn't made →

There's no use talking about it anymore.

Well...

Look, I called Aoi who was busy →

Look, I have to tell you properly.

Ah, that's right.

What?

>> Aoi Because we are Aoi's allies.→

If you have any trouble, please feel free to ask.→

I wanted to convey that properly.

As my best friend, I can talk to you about anything.

Thank you.

Good morning. (Momo/Megumi) Good morning.

Ah, have you seen the manager? Net news.

A murder happened in this town. >> Huh...

It's scary, isn't it? >> Today as well, please.

殺人…？

Yeah. We're currently investigating.

>> So a body was found somewhere?

A woman who came to this town was murdered yesterday.

>>Murder in Nozomi...

Also, I met Fuwa-kun yesterday.

>> Eh.

In this town?

Yes, but because of that incident, we couldn't talk properly.

I don't know Fuwa-kun's current contact information...right?

The victim's occupation was revealed to be a freelance writer.→

I checked with the publisher I work with →

Apparently, she told everyone around her that she was going to take a vacation.

It is said that Wakana Umezaki was brought on board yesterday.

I checked with Yuki Amakusa, a taxi driver in this town.

She said that it was for sightseeing purposes and that it was her first time coming to this town →

It seems that he was talking.

Call it tourism →

I was exploring this town by myself...

📱(Amakusa) Aoi What happened?

Can you give me some time?

>>For female victims →

Is that all you told the detective earlier?

📱I want you to show me the movie scenario (Aoi).

>> Huh?

📱At that time (Aoi) A scenario written by Fuwa-kun.

>> No... I guess it's okay...

You still have it. 📱(Amakusa) Eh...｡

As a detective, I would like to confirm this.
