    Hey, Taka-chan.
[02:21] Takao
    Oh, it's just you, Kuma.
[02:23] Kumakawa
    As cold as ever.
[02:26] Yu
    It's rare for you to visit us, Dr. Kumakawa.
[02:29] Yu
    Something up?
[02:32] Kumakawa
    Well, you see, there's something I'd like
    Investigative Pathology to look into.
SIGN    No aftereffects from operation, blood test shows inflammation levels
    have improved. Post-op progression good. Patient is walking and

[02:40] Kumakawa
    Last week, a number of boys in the
    same room fell sick, one after another.
[02:46] Kumakawa
    The cause is unknown, and it was right
    before they were due to be discharged.
[02:52] Kumakawa
    The first patient affected was
    10-year-old Sekihara Katsuji-kun.
[02:56] Kumakawa
    He was admitted with acute appendicitis.
SIGN    Cancer Screening
[02:59] Kumakawa
    He was recovering well
    after an appendectomy,
[03:03] Kumakawa
    but a week ago, a little after 9 PM,
     he started vomiting.
[03:08] Kumakawa
    The next patient was
    11-year-old Sakuta Yuichi-kun.
[03:11] Kumakawa
    He was admitted with
    mycoplasma pneumonia.
[03:14] Kumakawa
    His symptoms improved,
    and we were considering discharging him,
[03:19] Kumakawa
    but four days ago, around 11 PM,
    he suddenly suffered an asthma attack.
[03:24] Kumakawa
    The most recent sufferer is
    12-year-old Fuyumoto Atsushi-kun.
[03:27] Kumakawa
    He has WPW syndrome.

    He was admitted for treatment after

[03:35] Kumakawa
    We planned to discharge him
     last weekend, but...
[03:40] Kumakawa
    Eight days ago, in the middle of the night,
    he collapsed in the hallway, complaining of pain.

[03:46] Kumakawa
    His pulse was slow and irregular,
    but the symptoms subsided quickly.
[03:52] Kumakawa
    Taka-chan, I was hoping you could
    talk to them and examine them.
[04:00] Takao
    No.
[04:02] Yu
    Huh? What's wrong, Dr. Takao?
[04:07] Kumakawa
    Actually, there is another thing
    that's been bothering me.
[04:11] Kumakawa
    There have been sightings of
    an angel in the pediatric ward.
[04:14] Yu
    Huh? An angel?
[04:16] Kumakawa
    It's been a bit chaotic in
    the pediatric ward because of it.
[04:20] Yu
    Wh-What do you mean?
[04:23] Kumakawa
    About 10 days ago, a different patient started
    claiming he'd seen an angel late at night.
[04:30] Kumakawa
    He opened his eyes in the middle of the night
    and saw someone standing there, bathed in light.
[04:34] Yu
    How did he reach the conclusion that
    this person bathed in light was an angel?
[04:40] Kumakawa
    The child said the figure looked like
    the angel from one of his picture books.
[04:46] Yu
    Could the child have made a mistake?
[04:49] Kumakawa
    Five days ago, a nurse was passing
    the child's room, and looking in from outside,
[04:55] Kumakawa
    she also saw a shining angel-like figure.
[04:58] Kumakawa
    And all three of these cases occurred
    after this so-called angel was seen.
[05:04] Yu
    After the angel was seen?
[05:08] Kumakawa
    Taka-chan, the boy with the picture book
    won't be on the ward tonight.
[05:14] Kumakawa
    So could you please examine
    the other three kids at least?
[05:20] Kumakawa
    Please.

    Fine.
[05:39] Yu
    Dr. Takao?
[05:42] Yu
    What's wrong?
[05:44] Takao
    No, it's nothing.
[05:50] Nurse A
    Kazuya-kun in Room 708
    has a temperature of 38.2.
[05:50] Mai
    Dr. Kumakawa is currently
     with outpatients,
[05:53] Nurse B
    We can only give him acetaminophen if he's
     above 38.5, so give him a cooling compress.
[05:54] Mai
    so I've been asked to accompany you.
[05:57] Nurse A
    Understood. Should we delay his antibiotics?
[05:58] Mai
    All three of the affected patients
    are currently in Room 703.
[06:00] Nurse B
    It should be fine. I'll ask the doctor later.
[06:04] Mai
    By the way, we've had a little problem
    with the three patients who suddenly got sick.
[06:08] Yu
    A problem?
[06:10] Mai
    They're the oldest kids
    currently in the ward.
[06:16] Mai
    Because of that, they act all arrogant,
    hide the personal items of other kids,
[06:20] Mai
    and mock everyone for their looks.
[06:22] Yu
    That's pretty malicious.
[06:25] Mai
    There are children, parents, and staff members
     who hold grudges against this trio.
[06:33] Mai
    I don't want to cast a suspicious eye,
    but maybe one of them...
[06:38] Yu
    If you're implying someone hurt those three
     on purpose, how did they do it exactly?
[06:44] Mai
    No clue. That's where the Investigative
    Pathology Department comes in.
[06:51] Mai
    Here we are.
[06:53] Mai
    We're coming in!
[06:56] Mai
    Excuse us.
[07:02] Katsuji
    Look how scared he is of a little toy.
[07:02] Atsushi
    So lame.
[07:03] Mai
    Now, that's quite enough of that.
[07:06] Atsushi
    Oh, it's just the gyaru doctor.
[07:09] Mai
    In what way do I look like a gyaru?
[07:12] Atsushi
    You totally look like a gyaru.
    Your face is dark from all that tanning.
[07:16] Mai
    Shut it. This is my normal skin color.
[07:18] Yu
    It is?
[07:19] Mai
    Did you say something?
[07:21] Yu
    Oh, no, nothing.
[07:23] Atsushi
    Who's this? The gyaru doctor's boyfriend?
[07:26] Mai
    No, no, no.
[07:28] Mai
    He's a doctor from the
    Department of Investigative Pathology.
[07:32] Yu
    For now, we'd like to give
    all three of you a quick examination...
[07:35] Yu
    Uh, Dr. Takao?
[07:38] Atsushi
    Hey, what are you doing?
[07:40] Atsushi
    It's cold.
[07:44] Atsushi
    Wh-What?
[07:57] Yu
    Wait, Dr. Takao.
[07:59] Takao
    What is it?
[08:00] Yu
    Aren't you going to examine them?
[08:02] Takao
    No need. I already looked
    through their examination results.
[08:06] Yu
    So why did we bother coming down here?
[08:09] Takao
    There was something I wanted to confirm.
[08:11] Yu
    There was?
[08:12] Mai
    Oh, Dr. Yamada.
[08:15] Yamada
    What's Investigative Pathology doing here?
[08:18] Mai
    We asked them to examine
    Atsushi-kun and the others.
[08:21] Yamada
    I see. I'm about to go discuss it
     with Dr. Kumakawa,
[08:25] Yamada
    but Fuyumoto Atsushi-kun will likely
    be discharged the day after tomorrow.
[08:29] Mai
    Huh?
[08:30] Yu
    But we still don't know
    why he suddenly fell ill, right?
[08:34] Yamada
    I'm his attending physician.
[08:37] Yamada
    We've been monitoring him with an ECG
    machine, but there's been no recurrence.
[08:42] Yu
    But what if something happens
    after he's discharged?
[08:45] Yamada
    We'll have him wear a Holter
    ECG monitor tomorrow afternoon
[08:48] Yamada
    to confirm he has no issues
    before we discharge him.
[08:52] Yamada
    Anyway, if you'll excuse me.
[08:58] Yu
    Dr. Takao, you won't be able to
    examine him if he's discharged.
[09:04] Takao
    Isn't that fine?
    As long as there aren't any issues.
[09:07] Mai
    Huh?
[09:11] Mai
    Um, should we take a look at the room
    where the angel appeared?
[09:16] Mai
    It's right next door and
    there's no one in there right now.
[09:29] Yu
    It's a private room?
[09:31] Mai
    Yes. He has a private room
    so that his mother can stay the night.
[09:35] Mai
    Miki Kenta-kun is still only eight years old.
[09:40] Mai
    He's currently undergoing
    palliative care for terminal leukemia.
[09:46] Mai
    Kenta-kun said an angel
    came to take him to heaven.
[09:52] Mai
    That's what it says
    in the picture book he likes.
[09:58] Takao
    Where did the angel appear?
[10:01] Mai
    Around where I'm standing right now.
[10:04] Mai
    He said a light appeared and
    he saw the shadow of a person with wings.
[10:09] Takao
    I see.
[10:12] Yu
    Huh?
[10:13] Yu
    You're done?
[10:14] Takao
    Yeah. I've heard enough.
[10:16] Mai
    Please wait, Dr. Takao.

    Do you already have some idea about
    what's going on in the pediatric ward?

    Why don't we ask her again next time?
[11:36] Mai
    Kenta-kun, will you show me
     your picture book?
[11:40] Kenta
    Sure.

    So this is the picture book you like?
[11:44] Kenta
    Yeah. I lost it, but I got another.

    But I really...
[12:19] Keiko
    Doctor, can we really not change rooms?
[12:23] Kumakawa
    I'm very sorry. We currently
    have no other rooms available.
[12:26] Keiko
    It makes Kenta uneasy
    having those children next door.

[12:35] Kumakawa
    How about you take a little break?

    What did those three do to Kenta-kun?

    When Kenta-kun was in the playroom,
    that trio snatched his cap off him.

    Hey, look. He's a kid, but he's already bald.
[13:01] (Flashback) Atsushi/Katsuji/Yuichi
    What the heck?
[13:05] Mai
    Kenta-kun has no hair because
    he's going through chemotherapy.
[13:09] Mai
    That trio laughed at him and caused a scene.
[13:14] Yu
    What happened to the picture book?
[13:17] Mai
    That was about three days afterwards.
[13:21] Mai
    Kenta-kun's favorite picture book
    disappeared when he was out of the room.
[13:27] Mai
    We found it torn to shreds in the
    playroom trash can the next day.

[13:34] Yu
    It was that trio again?
[13:36] Mai
    We have no proof, but we suspect as much.
[13:39] Mai
    After that, Kenta-kun's
    mother got really anxious.
[13:47] Kumakawa
    You two.
[13:49] Kumakawa
    Got a minute?
[13:55] Kumakawa
    I really wasn't expecting Taka-chan
    and Kenta-kun to run into each other.
[14:01] Yu
    Um, what kind of relationship do
    Miki Kenta-kun and Dr. Takao have?
[14:07] Kumakawa
    He's Taka-chan's friend.
[14:09] Yu
    Friend?
[14:12] Kumakawa
    Two years ago, when Taka-chan was working
    as a resident in the pediatric ward...
[14:17] Kumakawa
    she often argued with attending physicians,
    and struggled to interact with patients.
[14:23] Kumakawa
    It was pretty hard on her.
[14:28] Kumakawa
    In the middle of all that,
[14:30] Kumakawa
    Kenta-kun came for an emergency examination
    because a late-night nosebleed wouldn't stop.
[14:34] Kumakawa
    Seems it's finally stopped.
[14:35] Kenta
    Yeah.
[14:37] (Flashback) Keiko
    Thank you very much.
[14:39] (Flashback) Kumakawa
    Well, that should do it—
[14:40] (Flashback) Takao
    Hold on a second.
[14:43] Kumakawa
    Taka-chan was also on duty that night,
[14:46] Kumakawa
    and she noticed Kenta-kun had
    a light patch of purpura on his leg.
[14:51] Kumakawa
    We immediately ran tests, and he was
    diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia,
[14:56] Kumakawa
    requiring him to be hospitalized
    and undergo chemotherapy.
[14:59] Mai
    So what happened between
     the two of them?
[15:04] Kumakawa
    He took a shine to her.
[15:06] Mai
    What?
[15:06] Yu
    Huh?
[15:08] (Flashback) Kenta
    Dr. Kid!
[15:12] Kumakawa
    Taka-chan was pretty hesitant at first,
    but she slowly opened up.
[15:18] Kumakawa
    She even started making time to visit
    Kenta-kun in his room and chat with him.
[15:26] Mai
    So they became friends, huh?
[15:29] Kumakawa
    For Taka-chan, Kenta-kun was
    a source of comfort during her residency.
[15:39] (Flashback) Takao
    I got you a present, Kenta.
[15:41] (Flashback) Kenta
    Wow! So cool!
[15:45] (Flashback) Kenta
    Do I look good?
[15:46] (Flashback) Takao
    Yeah.
[15:53] Kumakawa
    He still treasures the baseball cap
    Taka-chan gave him.
[16:02] Kumakawa
    The chemotherapy was effective,
    and he was discharged
[16:05] Kumakawa
    after he was evaluated as
    being in complete remission.
SIGN    I'm all better now.
     Thank you,
     Dr. Kid!
[16:13] Yu
    But the cancer returned?
[16:17] Kumakawa
    Yeah.
[16:20] Kumakawa
    We found leukemia cells during a routine
    bone marrow exam in January of this year,
[16:26] Kumakawa
    and he was diagnosed
    with a recurrence of leukemia.
[16:30] Kumakawa
    We tried everything we could,
    but it was no use.
[16:34] Kumakawa
    We don't know when Kenta-kun's health
    will take a turn for the worse.
[16:38] Yu
    So that's why Dr. Takao
    has been acting so strangely.
[16:43] Kumakawa
    Kenta-kun was supposed to be gone for the night,
    so I thought she could do some examinations,
[16:48] Kumakawa
    but he suddenly came down with a fever
    and had to return to the hospital.
[16:54] Kumakawa
    Will you apologize to Taka-chan for me?
[16:57] Yu
    I understand.
[17:18] Yu
    Why are you all rolled up
    like a roly-poly down there?
[17:24] Takao
    I messed up.
[17:26] Yu
    Yeah, you messed up.
[17:30] Takao
    I didn't mean to do that.
    My mind just went blank.
[17:35] Yu
    Dr. Kumakawa wanted to apologize
    about asking you to help this time.
[17:41] Takao
    I already knew what was going on
    even before he asked me,
[17:45] Takao
    so I tried to brace myself for it.
[17:50] Takao
    I ended up hurting Kenta's feelings.
[17:54] Yu
    Why don't you go see Kenta-kun again
    after you've calmed down?
[18:01] Takao
    Kotori.
[18:02] Yu
    Yes, what is it?
[18:05] Takao
    Have you ever had a patient
    who was younger than you die?
[18:11] Yu
    I have. I worked in the surgical
    department for five years.
[18:17] Takao
    I haven't.
[18:22] Yu
    Is that so?
[18:26] Takao
    Hey, Kotori.
[18:28] Yu
    Yes?
[18:30] Takao
    Kenta-kun is going to die soon.
[18:35] Yu
    Yes, I know.
[18:37] Takao
    He's only been alive eight years,
    but he's already going to die.
[18:43] Takao
    I can't do anything for him.
[18:47] Takao
    Even though my brain's stuffed with
    medical knowledge from all over the world,
[18:52] Takao
    there's nothing I can do!
[18:53] Yu
    That's not true.
[18:56] Yu
    You can see him and talk with him.
[18:59] Yu
    We simply need to listen to our patients,
    discuss their illnesses in a frank manner,
[19:05] Yu
    and act flexibly, depending on the situation.
[19:09] Takao
    Act flexibly?
[19:13] Takao
    I can't do that because I can't read
    what the other person wants from me.
[19:22] Takao
    If I talk with Kenta now,
    I might hurt his feelings even more.
[19:28] Takao
    Before I realize it,
[19:31] Takao
    I might make someone who's already
    suffering go through even more pain.
[19:40] Takao
    That's why it's probably better
    if I don't see Kenta anymore.
[19:47] Yu
    Are you thinking of running away again?
[19:51] Takao
    Running away?
[19:52] Yu
    That's right. You're just running away.
[19:56] Yu
    You're running away from Kenta-kun and
    the mysterious illnesses on the pediatric ward.
[20:01] Takao
    I'm not running awa—
[20:02] Yu
    Sure you are.
[20:04] Yu
    You're giving me all these excuses,
    but it's just that it's painful for you.
[20:08] Yu
    That might be fine for normal people,
    but you're a doctor.
[20:14] Yu
    And since you're a doctor,
    you have to handle that pain.
[20:18] Yu
    You have to accept the fact
    there are people you can't save.
[20:23] Yu
    If you leave it like this,
    nothing will get resolved.
[20:27] Yu
    For both Kenta-kun and those three children.
[20:32] Takao
    Those kids will be fine.
    They're not in any danger.
[20:37] Yu
    You know what's happening
    in the pediatric ward, don't you?
