*I don't think my dad could endure
being branded a thief.*
**[00:06] ---**
*And I guess my mom
did suspect that he really did it.*
**[00:12] ---**
*It made me want to stop
believing in people.*
**[00:15] ---**
*I thought maybe I would feel better*
**[00:18] ---**
*if I could just hate
either my mom or dad.*
**[00:21] ---**
*But after years passed,
my mom let it slip,*
**[00:23] ---**
*"Why couldn't I believe him back then?"*
**[00:29] ---**
*That made me want to keep
loving both of them.*
**[00:37] ---**
*I realized that believing
in people was my strong point.*

I saw Airi go in there before!

Hey!

Satoru, go out the back.
**[03:25] ---**
Don't get Airi mixed up
in your business anymore.
**[03:33] ---**
I'm getting the credit for this.
**[03:45] ---**
*Will Airi be okay?*
**[03:47] ---**
*And that fire...*

Why don't you just

**[04:39] ---**
*It's Satoru Fujinuma.*
**[04:43] ---**
If you are Satoru Fujinuma,
nice to meet you.
**[04:46] ---**
I've been waiting for your call.
**[04:49] ---**
Yes, by all means.
**[04:51] ---**
No, not here.
**[04:52] ---**
Let's meet at a public place.
**[04:56] ---**
I haven't given you
my name yet, have I?
**[04:58] ---**
I will when we meet tomorrow.
**[05:00] ---**
Because you may have
murdered Sachiko Fujinuma.

**[05:08] ---**
Welcome.
**[05:11] ---**
Hi, Satoru. Over here.
**[05:14] ---**
Good to meet you.
**[05:16] ---**
I'm Sawada, formerly of TV Ishikari.
**[05:18] ---**
I'm relieved. You really are Satoru.
**[05:22] ---**
Yeah, you resemble your mother.
**[05:27] ---**
*Him!*
**[05:28] ---**
I'm sure you're on guard, but I didn't
tell anyone about this meeting,
**[05:32] ---**
and I didn't murder
your mother either.
**[05:35] ---**
You don't suspect me?
**[05:37] ---**
Of course not.
**[05:39] ---**
Why not?
**[05:41] ---**
Because she didn't raise
the kind of son who would kill her.
**[05:47] ---**
I see.
**[05:48] ---**
Yesterday I remembered
that it was in my pocket.
**[05:52] ---**
This keeps snowballing.
**[05:55] ---**
I'm pathetic.
**[05:57] ---**
My string of blunders
makes me partially responsible.
**[06:01] ---**
Thinking it's your fault
after the fact is just pointless.
**[06:06] ---**
Those are Sachiko's words.
**[06:08] ---**
I always liked them.
**[06:13] ---**
Shall we talk about her phone call?
**[06:16] ---**
Please.

*The serial killings 18 years ago...*
**[06:24] ---**
*Of course.*
**[06:25] ---**
*Jun Shiratori is on death row,
but he still claims to be innocent.*
**[06:28] ---**
*It's just as Satoru said.*
**[06:32] ---**
*Shiratori didn't do it.*
**[06:34] ---**
*Now I know who did.*
**[06:37] ---**
*Let's meet at Koiwa Station tomorrow.*
**[06:40] ---**
I should've asked her for the name.
**[06:47] ---**
Why don't we talk about a past incident?
**[06:50] ---**
About Kayo Hinazuki's death...
**[06:53] ---**
On the night of March 2nd, 1988,
**[06:56] ---**
Kayo was beaten by her mother
and her mother's boyfriend,
**[06:59] ---**
and locked in the storage shed.
**[07:01] ---**
She froze to death.
**[07:03] ---**
The police suspected Kayo's mother
and the boyfriend of hiding the body.
**[07:10] ---**
But sometime between 10
and 11 pm on the 2nd,
**[07:13] ---**
Kayo disappeared from the shed.
**[07:16] ---**
Kayo's mother discovered
the disappearance at 12:30 am on the 3rd.
**[07:20] ---**
She called your house and casually
inquired about Kayo's whereabouts.
**[07:26] ---**
Jun Shiratori had taken her away.
**[07:28] ---**
The footprints made
by rubber boots around the shed
**[07:33] ---**
matched Jun Shiratori's boots.
***SIGN*** HOKKAIDO POLICE
**[07:36] ---**
The police went public
with their version of the events.
**[07:39] ---**
Shiratori knocked Kayo out
with physical violence
**[07:42] ---**
and then photographed her.
**[07:44] ---**
He put her in the family
business cold storage room
**[07:47] ---**
and used an atomizer
to speed up her death by freezing.
**[07:49] ---**
When her temperature dropped
to 20 degrees, she was brain dead.
**[07:52] ---**
Shiratori waited about 30 minutes,
**[07:54] ---**
when she had almost
zero chance of recovery,
**[07:57] ---**
then returned her frozen corpse
to the Hinazuki shed before sunrise.
**[08:06] ---**
Yuuki would never have done that!
**[08:08] ---**
Kayo Hinazuki, Hiromi Sugita,
Aya Nakanishi...
**[08:12] ---**
Shortly before those three disappeared,
**[08:14] ---**
there was a series of abduction
murders in the next town over.
**[08:18] ---**
The culprit was quickly arrested,
**[08:20] ---**
but like Jun Shiratori,
he denied any wrongdoing.
**[08:23] ---**
Now.
**[08:25] ---**
Including your present circumstances,
**[08:27] ---**
do you notice a common link?
**[08:31] ---**
I've been ridiculed for years for being
a weirdo freelancer reporter
**[08:35] ---**
who investigates crimes
that have already been solved.
**[08:38] ---**
The truth is, none of them are solved!
**[08:40] ---**
Both Kayo Hinazuki and Sachiko
were murdered by the same bastard
**[08:44] ---**
who gives the police another suspect!
**[08:47] ---**
And now he's in this city.
**[08:50] ---**
He's a crafty son of a bitch.
**[08:52] ---**
He buys time by framing someone else,
which reduces eyewitness testimony
**[08:56] ---**
and changes the circumstances
at the scene.
**[08:59] ---**
As a result, the investigation gets
further and further away from himself.
**[09:14] ---**
*This is going overboard.*
**[09:19] ---**
So he tried to shut her up.
**[09:21] ---**
Satoru Fujinuma...
**[09:22] ---**
He won't be able to get at her now.
**[09:25] ---**
And what about the high school girl?
**[09:27] ---**
Is she an accomplice?
**[09:29] ---**
She helped him kill the mother
**[09:31] ---**
and once that was done,
he tried to silence her.
**[09:34] ---**
That's terrible.
**[09:35] ---**
Getting that girl caught up
in his madness...
**[09:38] ---**
*You're wrong.*
**[09:40] ---**
Airi, you have nothing to apologize for.
**[09:43] ---**
That's right. A stalker went after you.
**[09:46] ---**
You must have been terrified!
**[09:48] ---**
Aunty, that's not what happened.
**[09:50] ---**
Don't blame yourself. I'm sorry
that we didn't notice anything.
**[09:54] ---**
*It's not what you think.*
**[09:55] ---**
The police are after the culprit.
**[09:58] ---**
You have nothing to be afraid of now.
**[10:00] ---**
*They've got it wrong.*
**[10:03] ---**
Fugitive Suspect
Responsible for Arson?
**[10:03] ---**
Suspect Targeted
Co-worker's House (Chiba)
**[10:12] ---**
*I can't believe they're going
after Satoru for murder and arson.*
**[10:16] ---**
*That's impossible...*
**[10:18] ---**
*Who would believe me...*
**[10:28] ---**
A message was sent
from Sachiko's phone to that girl?
**[10:31] ---**
Yes.
**[10:32] ---**
According to the news,
she wasn't badly hurt,
**[10:34] ---**
but I'm sure she's still in the hospital.
**[10:37] ---**
This is it.
**[10:40] ---**
I see.
**[10:41] ---**
He plotted to help the investigation along
by framing you for arson.
**[10:46] ---**
I think that's part of it,
**[10:48] ---**
but I was already a suspect.
**[10:50] ---**
I can't believe he would target her,
Airi Katagiri, just for that.
**[10:55] ---**
In other words, you think
she was already his target?
**[10:59] ---**
In order to frame me
as my mother's murderer,
**[11:02] ---**
he had to find out what time
I'd be home from my job.
**[11:05] ---**
So in the 24 hours plus
between my mother's sighting
**[11:09] ---**
of his attempted
kidnapping and her murder,
**[11:11] ---**
he went to the pizza shop
and looked at the shift schedule.
**[11:15] ---**
Airi must have seen his face then.
**[11:18] ---**
Maybe he's even someone I know.
**[11:21] ---**
I see. Then he's someone
**[11:24] ---**
who could get behind the counter
at a pizza shop to look at the schedule.
**[11:27] ---**
We may be able to use
this to reach the bad guy.
**[11:31] ---**
I'm going to the hospital.
**[11:34] ---**
Okay.
**[11:34] ---**
There's a report on the murders
from 18 years ago on my computer.
**[11:38] ---**
You can take a look if you like.
**[11:41] ---**
*I think Jun Shiratori suspects
his own father of being the killer.*
**[11:47] ---**
*Regarding an alibi and evidence,*
**[11:49] ---**
*it's possible that his continued
refusal to say anything*
**[11:52] ---**
*that might incriminate his father
made himself look even worse.*
**[11:55] ---**
*That would be like Yuuki,
who dearly loves his father.*
**[11:57] ---**
*A classmate saw Kayo Hinazuki
and Jun Shiratori together three times.*
**[12:03] ---**
*Satoru Fujinuma's testimony
was deliberately ignored,*
**[12:05] ---**
*but it seems much was made
of the other student's testimony.*

He didn't kill his mother.

And he didn't set a fire to target me!

Nishizono?
**[17:33] ---**
I've seen him two or three times.
**[17:35] ---**
The manager treats him with respect
**[17:37] ---**
and from the badge he wears,
I'd guess he's a city councilman.
**[17:40] ---**
He would've been able
to see the schedule,

that he knew where I lived.

I have unfinished business

**[18:13] ---**
It's an idea I had for a manga story.
**[18:16] ---**
About a grim reaper
**[18:17] ---**
who makes a scheduling mistake
that results in the death of a child.
**[18:21] ---**
He struggles to put things
back the way they were,
**[18:24] ---**
but the more he acts, the more
other people involved suffer.
**[18:29] ---**
Even though he means
to do the right thing,
**[18:31] ---**
when he gets mixed up in it,
**[18:33] ---**
other people get hurt.
**[18:39] ---**
It's like you right now, Satoru?
**[18:42] ---**
Don't you think, Airi?
**[18:44] ---**
Are you stupid?
**[18:45] ---**
For example, I'm not hurt.
**[18:47] ---**
That stuff about other people is just
the reaper's subjective impression.
**[18:50] ---**
I think that grim reaper
should have more faith in himself.
**[18:54] ---**
I'm sure that what's in front of you
is all still in progress.
**[18:59] ---**
The conclusion is still up ahead
and nobody knows what it is yet.

Satoru!
**[19:45] ---**
*Either through being arrested or Revival,*
