    Combustion is caused by rapid oxidation and
    the subsequent generation of light and heat.
[03:17] Takao
    If we were to use the human body as fuel,
[03:19] Takao
    the most likely cause of spontaneous human
    combustion is thought to be alcohol consumption.
[03:20] Mai
    How's Haruka-san doing?
[03:23] Yu
    The shock of it is affecting her pretty badly.
[03:25] Takao
    Many victims are known to have
    consumed large amounts of alcohol,
[03:25] Mai
    That's only natural. Her own father died
    in front of her eyes in such a crazy way.
[03:29] Takao
    and the high concentration of alcohol
    may have been a trigger of some kind.
[03:31] Yu
    Yeah, true.

[04:15] Takao
    Sakurai, did you look into the hospitalization

[04:20] Yu
    Huh?
[04:20] Sakurai
    Well, about that...
[04:24] Takao
    As I thought.
[04:25] Takao
    One more thing.
[04:27] Takao
    The police autopsy still hasn't ascertained
    Murota's cause of death, right?
[04:32] Sakurai
    Right. Looks like it'll still be quite a while.
[04:35] Takao
    Got it. Later.
[04:37] Sakurai
    Huh? Wait, I still need to—
[04:40] Takao
    Damn it.
[04:42] Takao
    I still don't have the
    last piece of the puzzle.
[04:46] Takao
    If only we had a sample of Murota's blood...

    A blood sample, huh?

    Um...
[04:55] Takao
    What is it, Mai?
[04:56] Mai
    We do have a blood sample.
[04:58] Takao
    What?!
[04:59] Mai
    I took some right before the fire.
[05:02] Mai
    The sample should've been sent for testing.
[05:07] Takao
    Huh?
[05:09] Takao
    But we don't have
    any blood results for Murota.

[06:08] Takao
    Let's go, Kotori.
[06:09] Yu
    Huh? G-Go where?
[06:11] Takao
    Just hurry up and get your car.
[06:14] Yu
    Um, my car was burnt to a crisp.
[06:17] Takao
    What? Why haven't you bought
     a new one yet? You're so useless.
[06:22] Yu
    Don't be so unreasonable.
[06:23] Mai
    Dr. Kotori.
[06:28] Mai
    Go ahead and take my bike.
[06:31] Takao
    Nice one, Mai.
[06:34] Takao
    It's time I gave you
    my diagnosis of this mystery.
[07:00] Takao
    Checkmate.
[07:05] Yu
    You're...
[07:06] Takao
    I've already contacted the police.
[07:09] Takao
    So give it up.
[07:13] Takao
    Kagaya Masashi.
[07:18] Yu
    Kagaya-san, what are you...
[07:22] Yu
    This smell. Gasoline?
[07:24] Takao
    He's trying to burn down the storage room.
[07:26] Yu
    Huh? Why would he do that?
[07:29] Takao
    He's trying to destroy the evidence.
[07:31] Yu
    Evidence?
[07:34] Takao
    From the very start, this case...
[07:36] Takao
    was an amalgamation of
    various crimes and coincidences.
[07:39] Takao
    So it looked more complicated
    than it actually was.
[07:43] Takao
    It was as if the onmyoji's curse
    really had caused all of it.
[07:48] Takao
    The first event: the cryptococcus incident.
[07:51] Takao
    The second event:
    Kuramoto Aoi burned to death.
[07:55] Takao
    The third event: Ikari's coffin fire.
[07:59] Takao
    The fourth event: Murota burned to death.
[08:02] Takao
    Oh, and there was a side event where you
    got threatened, and your car was set on fire.
[08:06] Yu
    A side event?
[08:08] Takao
    Ashiya Yuuta's actions were the result of
    his hatred for you and his fanaticism of Enzo.
[08:13] Takao
    He had nothing to do with the other events.
[08:17] Takao
    The "curse" on Murota and Ikari
     that started everything off
[08:20] Takao
    was definitely caused by the cryptococcus.
[08:25] Takao
    However, the second and fourth events
    are the important ones here.
[08:28] Takao
    They're the reason this guy's trying
    to burn down this storage room.
[08:32] Yu
    What do you mean?
[08:34] Takao
    If we search this storage room,
[08:36] Takao
    we'll find the item that's the trick to
    triggering the spontaneous human combustion
[08:40] Takao
    that killed both Kuramoto Aoi and Murota.
[08:42] Yu
    Huh?
[08:44] Yu
    The trick?
[08:45] Yu
    What in the world is in here?
[08:49] Takao
    White phosphorus.
[08:52] Yu
    White phosphorus?
[08:55] Takao
    White phosphorus is an allotrope
    of phosphorus that's highly toxic.
[09:00] Takao
    A lethal dose for humans
    is about 50 milligrams.
[09:02] Takao
    Taking more causes a variety of
    symptoms from gastrointestinal damage,
[09:06] Takao
    like vomiting, diarrhea,
    kidney and liver damage,
[09:09] Takao
    and coagulation abnormalities
    that may lead to death within a few hours.
[09:15] Takao
    When Murota was brought to the ER, he already
     had acute white phosphorus poisoning.
[09:19] Yu
    White phosphorus poisoning?
[09:22] Takao
    The toxicity of white phosphorus
    isn't the only dangerous thing about it.
[09:26] Takao
    Its ignition point is unusually low,
    making it highly pyrophoric.
[09:31] Takao
    And white phosphorus matches
    are stored in this room.
[09:35] Yu
    White phosphorus matches?
[09:37] Takao
    Matches made with white phosphorus
    instead of the more common red phosphorus.
[09:43] Takao
    Their ignition point is 50ºC.
[09:45] Takao
    Depending on the humidity, they can ignite
    spontaneously at even lower temperatures.
[09:50] Takao
    They were invented in the 1830s
    and exploded in popularity,
[09:54] Takao
    but their toxicity and tendency to
    spontaneously ignite caused many issues.
[09:59] Takao
    Japan banned the manufacture of them in 1921.
[10:04] Takao
    White phosphorus matches that
    shouldn't exist in our present era...
[10:08] Takao
    are currently in that safe over there.
[10:14] Kagaya
    You have good eyes.
[10:16] Yu
    Matches?
[10:19] Yu
    That means Kuramoto-san's
     death was caused by...
[10:21] Takao
    Yeah.
[10:22] Takao
    The matches Murota gave Kuramoto Aoi
     were white phosphorus ones.
[10:28] Takao
    That night, she turned up her heater
    and the matches spontaneously ignited.
[10:32] Takao
    That one was an accident.
[10:35] Takao
    Murota's fire was triggered the same way.
[10:38] Takao
    At the time, Murota had
    white phosphorus matches on him.
[10:41] Takao
    The heat from the electric blanket
    the paramedics wrapped him in
[10:45] Takao
    caused the white phosphorus matches
    in his chest pocket to spontaneously ignite.
[10:51] Takao
    This was the trick that was used to
    cause spontaneous human combustion.
[10:57] Sakurai
    Excuse us. Apologies for the delay.
[11:01] Naruse
    Gasoline?
[11:04] Sakurai
    So what kind of situation
    are we dealing with here?
[11:17] Naruse
    Why, you!
[11:19] Kagaya
    Don't come any closer.
[11:23] Kagaya
    Don't worry.
[11:24] Kagaya
    I won't run.
[11:27] Sakurai
    Kagaya-san, what's the meaning of this?
[11:30] Kagaya
    I used white phosphorus
    matches to murder Murota.
[11:35] Kagaya
    I switched his normal matches
    with the ones in this storage room.
[11:39] Kagaya
    And I did it all on my own.
[11:41] Sakurai
    So you were behind it?
[11:43] Kagaya
    Yeah, that's right.
[11:45] Kagaya
    That man was planning to make me work
    for him for the rest of my life. Like a slave.
[11:51] Kagaya
    I just wanted to get back at him.
[11:54] Kagaya
    Now, I just need to burn this storage room
     down to get rid of the evidence.
[11:58] Naruse
    You bastard.
[12:00] Takao
    Yes, you have no choice but
     to burn down this storage room.
[12:05] Takao
    Because you can't open the safe.
[12:11] Yu
    What do you mean?
[12:14] Takao
    Well, now that everyone's here,
    I'm done warming up.
[12:19] Takao
    Let's talk about the third event:
    Ikari's coffin fire.
[12:23] Takao
    The goal of that event was to leave
     an ignition device as evidence.
[12:28] Naruse
    Leave evidence?
[12:30] Sakurai
    Why do something like that?
[12:33] Takao
    To protect the true culprit.
[12:35] Yu
    Huh? The true culprit?
[12:37] Kagaya
    Wh-What are you—
[12:38] Takao
    The only thing you did
    was plant a bomb in a coffin.
[12:41] Takao
    You discovered the real culprit's plan
    after the death of Kuramoto Aoi,
[12:45] Takao
    and wanted to create an alibi for them.
[12:48] Yu
    An alibi?
[12:50] Yu
    Burning Ikari-san's corpse created an alibi?
[12:54] Takao
    The source of the fire
    in that incident was clear.
[12:58] Takao
    The ignition device
    could only have been set
[13:00] Takao
    from the day the coffin was sent to the
    funeral home until the beginning of the wake.
[13:04] Takao
    So it had to be someone
    who attended the wake.
[13:07] Takao
    The true culprit would eventually use the white
    phosphorus matches to burn Murota to death.
[13:12] Takao
    He used that device so people
    wouldn't suspect the true culprit.
[13:15] Takao
    Worst-case scenario, he planned
    to turn himself in and take all the blame.
[13:20] Sakurai
    The true culprit?
[13:22] Naruse
    So who's really behind this?
[13:25] Takao
    A person Kagaya's willing to create
    an alibi for and also take the blame for.
[13:33] Takao
    Someone who can switch out matches and
    mix white phosphorus into the victim's food.
[13:39] Takao
    A person who is close to Murota
    and has the ability to open the safe.
[13:45] Takao
    The only person who
    meets all the criteria is...
[13:54] Takao
    You.
[13:58] Takao
    Murota Haruka.
SIGN    Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective
[14:05] Naruse
    Huh?
[14:07] Yu
    Haruka-san's the culprit?
[14:09] Kagaya
    Haruka-san has nothing to do with it.
[14:11] Kagaya
    She had no reason to kill her own father!
[14:14] Takao
    There's motive all right.
[14:16] Takao
    All the times she and
    her mother were hospitalized.
[14:21] Sakurai
    Weren't they only hospitalized for a few broken
    bones and bruises at various general hospitals?
[14:27] Takao
    "Various" general hospitals.
    That's the key word there.
[14:31] Takao
    Patients usually don't go to
    different hospitals for the same injuries.
[14:35] Takao
    Only a certain type of patient goes to a
    different hospital every time they get injured.
[14:39] Yu
    You mean...
[14:41] Takao
    Victims of domestic abuse.
[14:44] Takao
    Because the violence is within the family,
[14:47] Takao
    victims often fear the eyes of others
    and try to avoid using the same hospital.
[14:51] Takao
    Didn't Murota say his wife passed away?
[14:54] Yu
    Y-Yeah. That's why Haruka-san
    came back to take care of her father.
[15:01] Takao
    It sounds like a sweet story,
[15:02] Takao
    but it takes on a different slant if we
     consider the possibility of domestic abuse.
[15:07] Takao
    X-rays for both Murota's wife and Haruka show
     a history of multiple terrible bone fractures.
[15:14] Yu
    Wait, so...
[15:16] Takao
    Yeah.
[15:17] Takao
    Haruka believes Murota killed her mother...
[15:21] Takao
    and came back to get revenge.
[15:25] Takao
    But while he may have been getting on
     in years, he was still an adult male.
[15:28] Takao
    The fear from years of
    violence was still there.
[15:33] Takao
    There were only so many things you could do.
[15:36] Takao
    You switched out the matches
    in hopes of causing a fire,
[15:40] Takao
    but found they didn't ignite
     as easily as you'd hoped.
[15:43] Takao
    To your surprise, Murota and Ikari
    suddenly started getting sick,
[15:47] Takao
    Kuramoto Aoi burned to death,
[15:49] Takao
    and Ikari's coffin burst into flames.
[15:53] Takao
    You had no idea what was going on.
    I'm sure you were very confused.
[15:58] Takao
    Even so, Murota didn't die.
[16:00] Takao
    Feeling cornered, you decided to risk
    feeding him the white phosphorus directly.
[16:06] Takao
    As a result, the white
    phosphorus poisoned Murota,
[16:09] Takao
    and flames enveloped him when the matches
    in his chest pocket coincidentally ignited.
[16:15] Takao
    A lot of coincidences overlapped,
    making everything look overly complex.
[16:19] Takao
    But really, you just switched out
    Murota's matches and poisoned him.
[16:26] Sakurai
    Murota Haruka-san, is what Dr. Ameku
    said the truth of the matter?
[16:33] Haruka
    I...
[16:34] Kagaya
    Don't, Haruka-san!
[16:35] Kagaya
    You don't have to say anything.
[16:42] Kagaya
    It's fine. I'll protect you.
[16:51] Haruka
    You're lying.
[16:54] Haruka
    This whole entire time.
[17:00] Haruka
    No one came to save us.
SIGN    Taisho Pharmaceuticals
[17:06] Haruka
    Even when my mother died.
[17:08] Haruka
    Everyone decided it was an accident,
    and no one was willing to listen.
[17:15] Haruka
    I had no choice but to do something myself.
[17:30] Haruka
    But...
[17:32] Haruka
    It's all over now.
[17:35] Kagaya
    Haruka-san?

     Do you want to die?

    No, but...

    Murota Haruka. Stand up. Let's go.
[19:42] Haruka
    Leave me alone.
[19:45] Takao
    I'm a doctor.
[19:46] Takao
    I can't turn a blind eye and let you die.
[19:51] Haruka
    You don't know anything about me.
[19:55] Takao
    Yeah, I don't get you at all.
[19:57] Takao
    A genius like me can't even begin to
    understand the feelings of someone like you.

    Is this what your mother wanted?
[20:06] Haruka
    Huh?
[20:07] Takao
    Why were you the only one
    able to leave that house?
[20:10] Takao
    How were you able to escape Murota's hands?
[20:13] Takao
    Wasn't it because your mother protected you?
[20:18] Takao
    If you die here, your mother's efforts
    will be wasted. Are you okay with that?
[20:26] Haruka
    I...
[20:28] Takao
    Don't let the shackles of
    unreasonable violence beat you.
[20:32] Takao
    Pay for your crimes and live on.
[20:42] Firefighters
    Watch out! Fire department coming through!
[20:46] Firefighters
    Bring that hose around!
[20:53] Kagaya
    Haruka-san, I'm so sorry.
[20:57] Kagaya
    I wasn't able to protect you.
[21:02] Kagaya
    Even so...
[21:07] Kagaya
    I'm so glad you're still alive.
[21:13] Yu
    I wonder what sentences they'll both get.
[21:16] Takao
    I'm not sure about Kagaya, but Haruka
    will probably be behind bars for a long time.
[21:21] Takao
    There may be some room for leniency,
    but she also involved Kuramoto Aoi.
[21:27] Takao
    But she can still pay for her crimes
    and gain her freedom in the future.
[21:32] Takao
    As long as she stays alive.
[21:35] Yu
    You're right.
[21:38] Yu
    You were very cool back there,
    convincing Haruka-san.
[21:42] Yu
    Ouch! What was that for?
[21:45] Takao
    Shut up.
[21:47] Yu
    Thank you for coming back to save me.
[21:52] Takao
    Good grief.
[21:54] Takao
    You're such a pain in the butt.
[21:58] Takao
    Don't forget to compensate Mai for her bike.
[22:01] Yu
    Huh? Me?!
