    Is that Satoru?
[00:16] ---
    No...
[00:21] ---
    Who is it?
SIGN    ERASED
[02:43] ---
    Good morning.
[02:44] ---
    Good morning.
[02:46] ---
    What are you doing up this early?
[02:49] ---
    What am I doing? Isn't it obvious?
[02:52] ---
    You're going to school
    early again, aren't you?
[02:55] ---
    Yeah.
[02:57] ---
    Thank you!
[03:01] ---
    You don't have to wolf it down.
[03:05] ---
    Satoru, can I ask you a frank question?
[03:08] ---
    Go ahead.
[03:09] ---
    Who are you meeting and what are you
    doing this early in the morning?
[03:14] ---
    It's a secret.
[03:16] ---
    You're not doing anything bad, are you?
[03:20] ---
    No.
[03:22] ---
    Okay then.
[03:27] ---
    See you later!
[03:27] ---
    Wait a second!
[03:28] ---
    Take this.
[03:30] ---
    Leaving so early,
    you'll be hungry before lunch.
[03:34] ---
    Right.
[03:36] ---
    Thanks, Mom.
[03:53] ---
    Hinazuki, good morning!
[03:57] ---
    Morning, Satoru.
[03:59] ---
    Here, breakfast.
[04:01] ---
    Isn't that for you?
[04:03] ---
    I've already eaten, so it's okay.
[04:08] ---
    Wow...
[04:10] ---
    I'm sorry, Kayo.
[04:12] ---
    It must be boring here.
[04:13] ---
    If you had a TV at least...
[04:16] ---
    It's all right. Hiromi brought me
    lots of books yesterday.
[04:21] ---
    I think it'll take only another day
    or two of being patient.
[04:25] ---
    Yeah.
[04:29] ---
    That was good.
[04:33] ---
    Well, I'll see you after school.
[04:34] ---
    Yeah.

    Crap!
[04:55] ---
    The kids from Izumi Elementary
    are coming to school!

[04:59] ---
    Maybe I spent too much time in there.
[05:03] ---
    I don't wanna give the farewell
    address at the graduation ceremony.
[05:07] ---
    Really?

    Kayo is absent again today, I guess?
[05:27] ---
    Fujinuma, you haven't heard anything?
[05:29] ---
    No. She wasn't at her
    house this morning either.
[05:32] ---
    Maybe she's got a cold?
    I wonder what's up with Hinazuki.
[05:35] ---
    Yeah. And the school hasn't been
    contacted? That's strange.
[05:39] ---
    - What's wrong?
    - Normally her mom would've called.
[05:42] ---
    - Hinazuki sure is out a lot.
    - I wish I could take off like that.
[05:46] ---
    Well, we're talking about Kayo.
[05:48] ---
    She may show up here
    when we least expect it.
[05:50] ---
    But shall we begin class?
[05:51] ---
    - I hate math!
    - Okay...
SIGN    STAFF ROOM
[05:54] ---
    I see...
[05:56] ---
    You stopped by her house
    this morning too, huh?
[05:58] ---
    You must be worried.
[06:00] ---
    Yeah.
[06:01] ---
    But you're relatively calm about it.
[06:03] ---
    It's like you always say.
[06:05] ---
    At a time like this,
    you should stay as calm as usual.
[06:09] ---
    That's true.
[06:10] ---
    I tried calling Kayo's house
    yesterday and today,
[06:14] ---
    but no one answered.
[06:15] ---
    I called her mother's work too,
    but she's absent there.
[06:20] ---
    Sensei! Would you call the police
    or the Child Consultation Center?
[06:23] ---
    The police...
[06:25] ---
    Yeah...
[06:26] ---
    If I call the police now,
    won't it cause someone trouble?
[06:34] ---
    I called the Child Consultation
    Center yesterday.
[06:36] ---
    It seems like they're going today.
[06:38] ---
    I'll go to Kayo's house with them.
[06:40] ---
    The root of the problem
    is probably there.
[06:44] ---
    "Doing your best
    is the key to everything."
[06:45] ---
    Another one of my pet expressions.
[06:48] ---
    Thanks, Sensei!
[06:53] ---
    So Yashiro was already
    moving behind the scenes...

[06:55] ---
    All right!
[06:59] ---
    Ms. Hinazuki!
[07:00] ---
    We're with the Ishikari
    Development Bureau.
[07:05] ---
    No one's coming.
[07:07] ---
    The lights are on,
    so someone is probably home.
[07:11] ---
    Shall we check around back?
[07:14] ---
    Ms. Hinazuki! Are you home?
[07:18] ---
    Kayo!
[07:23] ---
    Excuse me.
[07:24] ---
    Sensei!
[07:25] ---
    It's okay. I'll take responsibility.
[07:30] ---
    Sounds like she's been missing
    for three days.
[07:32] ---
    Let's trust him.
[07:44] ---
    The lights and stove are on.
[07:47] ---
    The recent remnants of a meal for one.
[07:50] ---
    Kayo's coat is gone.
[07:53] ---
    Her mother was here at least,
    up until moments ago.
[07:57] ---
    I bet the mother escaped off the balcony
    right when we got here.
[08:02] ---
    Rats. I wanted to at least
    take the daughter into custody.
[08:06] ---
    Let's try again tomorrow morning.
[08:08] ---
    I don't think the mother's coming back
    while we're here.
[08:11] ---
    But if we leave, I'm sure she'll return.
[08:13] ---
    Is the daughter all right?
[08:16] ---
    We could have the police
    look for the mother.
[08:19] ---
    No. I have a feeling Kayo is safe.
[08:22] ---
    In fact, I happen to know she is.
[08:25] ---
    If you say so, Sensei.
[08:27] ---
    Then let's leave for now, to make
    the mother think we've given up.
[08:31] ---
    People from the Child Consultation
    Center went to your house.
[08:34] ---
    Mr. Yashiro, too.
[08:36] ---
    Your mother wasn't home.
[08:39] ---
    I think this can be resolved
    today or tomorrow.
[08:42] ---
    Kayo...
[08:43] ---
    You'll be separated from your mother.
[08:46] ---
    Nothing could make me happier.
[08:49] ---
    When Kayo Hinazuki was taken
    into protective custody,

[08:52] ---
    it meant we wouldn't see her again.
[08:55] ---
    I'll be fine.
[08:58] ---
    Whenever I think of you guys,
    I'll get a warm feeling inside.
[09:03] ---
    Satoru, this is late...
[09:08] ---
    but this is your birthday present.
[09:10] ---
    Here.
[09:14] ---
    I'll give you your present tomorrow.
[09:17] ---
    That's a promise.
[09:30] ---
    Thank you.
[09:32] ---
    This moment...
[09:36] ---
    It feels like I've waited forever.
[09:42] ---
    I didn't realize you were so
    easily moved, Satoru.
[09:45] ---
    Huh?
[09:47] ---
    Oh yeah, Satoru. Stay here tonight.
[09:51] ---
    That's gutsy!
[09:54] ---
    Not like that.
[09:55] ---
    Nothing happened, but someone
    came in here late last night.
[10:02] ---
    I was scared.
[10:04] ---
    A security guard on night duty
    or the school janitor?
[10:08] ---
    Is there anything else?
[10:10] ---
    Did someone lend you their
    dirty magazines or something?
[10:13] ---
    It was an adult.
[10:15] ---
    He kicked a box, like he was angry.
[10:20] ---
    Shall we open it?
[10:22] ---
    Hopefully it is just dirty magazines.
[10:37] ---
    What is this?
[10:41] ---
    I was the only one who knew
    immediately what they were for.

[10:46] ---
    And I finally realized
    that the serial killer's second victim,

[11:09] ---
    Between 10 and 11 pm,
[11:11] ---
    Kayo Hinazuki disappeared
    from her home's storage shed.

[11:18] ---
    Footprints left around the shed
    matched the rubber boots

[11:21] ---
    belonging to the Shiratori family.
[11:25] ---
    The culprit used a spray
    to make her freeze to death quickly

[11:28] ---
    in a cold storage room.
[11:32] ---
    Then he returned her frozen
    body to the shed before dawn.

[11:40] ---
    We can't stay in this bus.
[11:43] ---
    It's in the dead center of the murder loop.
[11:50] ---
    We have to get out of here.
[11:53] ---
    Well, yeah.
[11:55] ---
    We wanted Hina to be found,
[11:57] ---
    but this is kind of creepy.
[12:00] ---
    All this stuff...
[12:02] ---
    Yeah.
[12:03] ---
    We can't have a pervert find her.
[12:05] ---
    Satoru... Do you have a plan B?
[12:09] ---
    I do.
[12:11] ---
    Okay. Then let's pull up stakes.
[12:20] ---
    Remember this. His footprint!
[12:25] ---
    What's this black powder?
[12:31] ---
    A briquette.
[12:32] ---
    Don't tell me this belongs
    to the killer too?

[12:42] ---
    Dammit! Dammit!
[12:45] ---
    Satoru...
[12:46] ---
    That doesn't matter now.
[12:49] ---
    You're right.
[12:51] ---
    That's right. What good
    does losing my head do?

[12:56] ---
    All right. Ready to go.
[12:58] ---
    Too bad, it was a good hideout.
[13:00] ---
    A hideout a stranger enters
    in the middle of the night is a bad one.
[13:03] ---
    Yeah.
[13:04] ---
    Right now we need to get Hinazuki
    far from the loop of murders...

[13:10] ---
    even by force.
[13:12] ---
    The Child Consultation Center
    is acting too.

    Yeah. Simple, isn't it?
[13:26] ---
    Let's take one more step.
[13:28] ---
    After all this,
    the straightforward approach?
[13:30] ---
    I'm back.
[13:33] ---
    Welcome home.
[13:38] ---
    G-Good evening.
[13:42] ---
    Satoru, explain.
[13:50] ---
    This is what happened
    when I didn't abandon her.
[14:03] ---
    Well done, kids.
[14:06] ---
    I thought that's what you'd say.
[14:08] ---
    Although I figured
    I'd get chewed out first...
[14:11] ---
    I said that out loud.
[14:13] ---
    Come on, I wouldn't scold you for this.
[14:15] ---
    You did it for a friend.
[14:21] ---
    I noticed this smell
    when you opened the door.
[14:24] ---
    I figured you would be home soon
[14:27] ---
    and didn't know how many guests
    we'd have, so I made curry.
[14:30] ---
    Was I that transparent?
[14:33] ---
    Just don't stand there.
[14:35] ---
    Come in and have some curry.
[14:37] ---
    I appreciate the invitation.
[14:38] ---
    Thank you!
[14:41] ---
    If nobody else had come, what would
    you have done with all this curry?
[14:45] ---
    Well, curry is good for days, right?
[14:50] ---
    Um... Here.
[14:53] ---
    Thank you.
[14:54] ---
    It was delicious.

    Mr. Yashiro...
[15:18] ---
    Satoru and Kayo came back to my house.
[15:21] ---
    Is that right? That's great!
[15:24] ---
    I figured as much.
[15:26] ---
    Will Kayo have to be sent
    to an orphanage somewhere?

[15:33] ---
    Good question.
[15:35] ---
    I do have an idea about that.
[15:38] ---
    Right, I couldn't see Kayo's mother.
[15:42] ---
    But I have a favor to ask you,

[16:17] ---
    You can go first.
[16:19] ---
    Okay. But...
[16:21] ---
    Why don't we take a bath together?
[16:30] ---
    Shall I wash your hair, Kayo?
[16:34] ---
    I can do it myself.
[16:36] ---
    That's all right, I'll do it.

    Does it itch anywhere, Miss?

    Here? Or maybe...

    you were having a good time.

    Yeah. I bought them beforehand.

[17:31] ---
    Use this. The sheet's been washed.
[17:34] ---
    Okay.

    - Okay.
