[00:10] Hiyakawa     Hmm, a hint of it does seem to be lingering. [00:14] Hiyakawa     It's because she's strong. [00:15] Hanzawa     Hey, hurry up. [00:18] Hiyakawa     I won't be going. [00:20] Mikado     What? If you're asked to     do a job, you should do it! [00:23] Hiyakawa     I will help. [00:25] Hiyakawa     There's a method I would like to test. [00:28] Hiyakawa     Hanzawa-san. [00:29] Hiyakawa     I'll lend Mikado-kun to you. Please take him. [02:04] Hanzawa     He's paying you and everything, right?     You're really okay with all that? [02:09] Mikado     He's precise when it comes to money. [02:11] Hanzawa     Is that right? [02:13] Hanzawa     So... what? You cheating on him with a woman? [02:15] Mikado     No! Everything about that is wrong!     The whole premise is wrong! [02:19] Hanzawa     Is that right? [02:21] Mikado     That seemed kind of half-hearted. [02:23] Hanzawa     Not at all. You know,     being gay is nothing to hide— [02:26] Mikado     I'm telling you, I'm not! [02:29] Mikado     The other day, I was walking,     and I just happened to see her. [02:34] (Flashback) Erika     Kousuke-kun. [02:37] Mikado     Hiura Erika. [02:40] Hanzawa     She's real? Not just some wild illusion? [02:43] Hanzawa     So what's this Hiura Erika like, anyway? [02:46] Mikado     She's... a high schooler. [02:49] Hanzawa     A high school girl? And who is she, exactly? [02:53] Mikado     You wouldn't believe me if I told you, right? [02:55] Hanzawa     Well, no. [02:56] Mikado     See? [02:58] Hanzawa     Figuring out what to make of     unbelievable stories is a detective's job. [03:02] Mikado     Whoa... That's cool. [03:04] Hanzawa     Right? [03:08] (Flashback) Erika     Isn't this place getting a     little too much traffic? [03:13] (Flashback) sensei     That makes it just right, doesn't it? [03:16] (Flashback) sensei     Now, don't make such a scary face. [03:19] (Flashback) sensei     You're always thinking outside     the box with everything you do. [03:23] (Flashback) sensei     Like that pieced-together doll      you made for me before... [03:26] (Flashback) sensei     That was really good. [03:30] (Flashback) sensei     I was so disappointed that I wasn't     able to see the real thing. [03:33] (Flashback) sensei     You have talent. It makes     you helpful to others. [03:38] Hanzawa     None of that makes any sense! [03:40] Mikado     I thought you'd say that. [03:43] Hanzawa     Today's the same, though.     The fact that I called you guys in [03:46] Hanzawa     means this thing makes no sense. [03:50] Hanzawa     Okay, we're here. [03:51] Mikado     Oh, what kind of case is it today? [03:55] Hanzawa     What would you call today's case...     Unexplained disappearances? [03:59] Mikado     Disappearances? [04:01] Hanzawa     You ever seen a shop that had lots     of customers, but then closed down [04:05] Hanzawa     and reopened as a different shop? [04:06] Hanzawa     That's one of them. [04:10] Hanzawa     And there are a lot of missing persons     who were last seen there. [04:15] Mikado     Does that mean they're...     b-buried in the floor or something? [04:19] Hanzawa     We investigated. Came up with     a reason and got a warrant. [04:23] Hanzawa     But nothing turned up. [04:24] Hanzawa     And the people running the shops either     go missing or end up in the hospital. [04:28] Hanzawa     It's weird. [04:30] Hanzawa     It's not a location the yakuza     have their eye on, either. [04:33] Hanzawa     There's just nothing. [04:35] Hanzawa     It's not like it gets passed down     from one owner to the next, [04:37] Hanzawa     and the real estate agent     and landlord are clean. [04:40] Hanzawa     There may not be a direct link to any crime, [04:42] Hanzawa     but normally when you hit a thing,     some dirt comes loose. [04:45] Hanzawa     For something to be this clean...      means something's weird. [04:49] Mikado     I came along for the ride, but I really     don't feel like I'll be any help on this. [04:54] Mikado     Wouldn't it be better to     come back with Hiyakawa-san? [04:56] Hanzawa     He said to call if you see anything, right? [05:00] Hanzawa     But hey, I guess if things     get crazy... we run, right? [05:04] Mikado     Th-Then I'll just make sure     I can call him at any moment. [05:09] Mikado     I wonder what Hiyakawa-san is thinking. [05:13] Mikado     He's like a super-complex riddle. [05:15] Mikado     And he might be kidding, [05:17] Mikado     but he says stuff like, "I don't     have parents or friends." [05:21] Hanzawa     Well, he's got it rough in a lot of ways, too. [05:25] Hanzawa     If he's ready to do an honest     day's work, that's enough. [05:28] Hanzawa     And people say that with the right     encounter, you can redo your life, right? [05:32] Mikado     Encounter? [05:34] Hanzawa     Yep! And this is a police     officer's experience talking. [05:37] Hanzawa     Catching criminals is all     about encounters, too. [05:39] Hanzawa     A chance to remake your life. [05:42] Hanzawa     Well, anyway... [05:44] Hanzawa     I just thought it'd be nice if that's     what meeting you did for him. [05:47] Hanzawa     You do seem unusually attached. Tamed, even. [05:49] Mikado     What? Tamed? [05:51] Hanzawa     Don't get swallowed up by it, though. [05:52] Hanzawa     Not like I'd know what empathy you two     might share with each other, but... [05:56] Mikado     D-Does that mean— [05:58] Hanzawa     Hey. [05:59] Mikado     Huh? [05:59] Hanzawa     Something's been bothering me. [06:01] Hanzawa     Doesn't this seem weird? [06:04] Hanzawa     There's been a ton of people walking by,      but I haven't seen any of their faces. [06:08] Mikado     Oh... [06:09] Hanzawa     I'll go take a look. [06:10] Mikado     Huh? Th-Then... I'll call Hiyakawa-san! [06:14] Hanzawa     Good. Thanks. SIGN    Hiyakawa Rihito SIGN    Calling... [06:31] Hiyakawa     Hello? [06:34] Mikado     Hiyakawa-san. [06:36] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun. [06:39] Hiyakawa     Thank you for the call. [06:41] Hiyakawa     Allow me to help you. [06:43] Hiyakawa     Listen to my voice. [06:46] Hiyakawa     I want you... to let me... [06:49] Hiyakawa     inside you. [06:53] Hanzawa     Hey, the lack of eye contact     out there is shocking. [06:57] Hanzawa     Tenderfoot, what's wrong? [07:00] Mikado     Nothing. Well, shall we take a look? [07:05] Hanzawa     Are you doing an impression of that guy? [07:07] Hanzawa     That's exactly like him. [07:09] Hanzawa     Doesn't make me laugh, though. [07:11] Mikado     Really? [07:17] Hanzawa     What's that? Chalk? [07:19] Mikado     Hanzawa-san, see that edge     there? Please step on it. [07:23] Mikado     Your power of disbelief is very strong. [07:27] Hanzawa     Really, this makes no sense. [07:33] Hanzawa     What is this thing? Can I move? [07:35] Mikado     No. This is a safety barrier. [07:39] Hanzawa     Look, could you just drop     the impression already? [07:42] Hanzawa     The longer you do it,     the less amusing it gets. [07:44] Mikado     Well, this is... What is it?     It's strange, isn't it? [07:48] Hanzawa     I'm not good at standing still. [07:51] Hanzawa     Hey, Hiyakawa! [07:52] Mikado     Yes? [07:54] Hanzawa     Wait, huh? You're not Hiyakawa. [07:58] Hiyakawa     Oh, that won't do. Come, now. [08:02] Hiyakawa     You have to focus on me. [08:08] Hiyakawa     Here, Mikado-kun. [08:10] Hiyakawa     Swallow me down completely. SIGN    Ramen King [08:20] (Flashback) sensei     Well, shall we get started making it? [08:24] (Flashback) Erika     I've already begun. [08:25] (Flashback) sensei     What? [08:28] (Flashback) sensei     Then I'll assist. [09:00] (Flashback) Sakaki     Man, that's scary. [09:03] Mikado     This is... [09:05] Hanzawa     You okay? You feeling sick or something? SIGN    Ramen King [09:08] (Flashback) sensei     I really love this work. [09:12] Mikado     It's strange. Extraordinarily so. [09:14] (Flashback) sensei     Making savings boxes. [09:16] Mikado     What was the point of making it? [09:19] (Flashback) Erika     You mean "traps," don't you? [09:20] Mikado     It's a trap. [09:22] Hanzawa     A trap? [09:23] Mikado     Mikado-kun. Mikado-kun! [09:26] Mikado     Hanzawa-san, this place is no     good. Please give up on it. [09:30] Hanzawa     Huh? [09:31] Mikado     Please bring Mikado-kun back immediately. [09:34] Hanzawa     What? [09:35] Mikado     He is about to lose consciousness.     Are you all right with that? [09:39] Hanzawa     That's several kinds of not "all right," idiot! [09:41] Hanzawa     Can I go bring the car over here? [09:44] Mikado     Oh. [09:45] Mikado     In that case, please spit here. [09:47] Mikado     Blood works, too. [09:49] Hanzawa     You've gotta be kidding me! Spit? [09:52] Mikado     After you spit, you'll have,     at most, 25 seconds. [09:55] Hanzawa     All right, fine! [10:04] Mikado     The... door... [10:07] Hanzawa     Come on! Hurry up and get in! [10:11] Hanzawa     Hey, the door is— [10:13] Hanzawa     Are you stupid? SIGN    Ramen King [10:21] (Flashback) sensei     I suppose that'll do it. [10:24] (Flashback) sensei     It's a little too strong at the moment, [10:26] (Flashback) sensei     but I think things will     store up nicely in time. [10:29] (Flashback) sensei     Well, let's head back. [10:30] (Flashback) Erika     Sir... [10:32] (Flashback) sensei     Yeah? [10:33] (Flashback) Erika     Do you remember all the     places you've set traps? [10:37] (Flashback) sensei     Of course not. [10:38] (Flashback) sensei     Why? [10:41] (Flashback) sensei     Oh, you feel sorry for them. [10:44] (Flashback) sensei     People are more likely to get into     a traffic accident than encounter this. [10:48] (Flashback) sensei     This is a fluency we were born with.     It's nothing for you to trouble yourself over. [10:52] (Flashback) sensei     Wanting to do something and being suited     for something are different, right? [10:57] (Flashback) sensei     There is no other life waiting for us. [11:02] (Flashback) Sakaki     Have you finished your work here, sir? [11:05] (Flashback) Sakaki     The young miss has plans after this. [11:08] (Flashback) sensei     Sakaki, who's holding your leash? [11:12] (Flashback) Sakaki     Contractually, I suppose it's the young miss. [11:14] (Flashback) sensei     Well, no matter. [11:17] (Flashback) sensei     See you later. [11:23] (Flashback) Sakaki     Just now... [11:24] (Flashback) Erika     Huh? [11:26] (Flashback) Sakaki     Was he cursing you, young miss? [11:29] (Flashback) Erika     No. Not... in a paranormal sense. [11:34] (Flashback) Sakaki     "Not in a paranormal sense," huh? [11:37] (Flashback) Sakaki     He's terrifying. [11:40] (Flashback) Sakaki     What do you want to do? You don't     have any plans in particular. [11:43] (Flashback) Erika     Hmm... I'd like to go to karaoke. [11:46] (Flashback) Sakaki     That's—Is that something     I must accompany you to? [11:50] (Flashback) Erika     Why not? I'll even put on some     Sorimachi Takashi for you. [11:53] (Flashback) Sakaki     I didn't sing that because I wanted to. [11:56] (Flashback) Erika     I want some honey toast. [12:01] (Flashback) Sakaki     Back there... [12:03] (Flashback) Sakaki     Why did you make it? And he said     you're just going to leave it like that? [12:08] (Flashback) Erika     I know, right? He's not right in the head. [12:13] (Flashback) Erika     He calls them "savings boxes." [12:15] (Flashback) Erika     When a place gets dirty and left that way, [12:18] (Flashback) Erika     people tend to think, "Just a little     won't hurt," and toss their trash there. [12:23] (Flashback) Erika     So the place keeps getting dirtier, right? [12:26] (Flashback) Erika     And then, [12:27] (Flashback) Erika     when you throw things away, you don't     notice you've gotten a little dirty, too. [12:31] (Flashback) Erika     That sort of thing stores up little by little, [12:33] (Flashback) Erika     and people end up feeling sick if they     weren't in the best condition to start with. [12:39] (Flashback) Erika     But the trash we're dealing     with here is invisible, [12:42] (Flashback) Erika     and he's in the business of recycling trash. [12:44] (Flashback) Erika     He picks it up there and uses it. [12:47] (Flashback) Erika     I'm scared, though, so I don't use it. [12:50] (Flashback) Sakaki     You're... scared? [12:52] (Flashback) Erika     That's right! I mean, they     say it on the news, right? [12:56] (Flashback) Erika     In places like that... [12:57] (Flashback) Erika     Mixed in with the normal garbage, [13:00] (Flashback) Erika     sometimes you find pieces of corpses. [13:05] (Flashback) Erika     There are people who've thrown them away. [13:10] Hanzawa     He's heavy! [13:11] Hanzawa     You should've carried him! You're bigger. [13:16] Hanzawa     Is he all right? [13:18] Hiyakawa     I don't know. [13:20] Hiyakawa     We had your barrier, Hanzawa-san,     so I thought we'd be all right. [13:24] Hiyakawa     There was an incredibly beautiful     structure there, so I went to look, [13:28] Hiyakawa     but it seems its affinity with     Mikado-kun was entirely too great. [13:32] Hanzawa     Enough with the incomprehensible     blabber. What's going on? [13:36] Hiyakawa     Perhaps because he received     a shock, his heart stopped... [13:40] Hiyakawa     in a paranormal sense, I mean. [13:41] Hanzawa     Is he in trouble? What're you gonna do? [13:45] Hiyakawa     AED. [13:47] Hiyakawa     It may hurt a little. [13:52] Hanzawa     An electrical fault? [13:53] Hanzawa     Is this building safe? [13:57] Hiyakawa     One more time. [14:05] Hiyakawa     Mikado— [14:05] Mikado     Little by little is fine. [14:08] Mikado     You have it, don't you? [14:10] Mikado     I want to take it little by     little and make it bigger. [14:13] Mikado     And if you need it, I'll give it back. [14:16] Mikado     That way, we'll have even more. [14:19] Mikado     It's a savings box. [14:22] Mikado     Come on. Give it to me. [14:26] Mikado     Okay? [14:29] Mikado     Come, now. [14:30] Hanzawa     You okay, Mikado-kun? [14:33] Mikado     Huh? What? [14:35] Hiyakawa     Hanzawa-san! Call to him! [14:37] Hiyakawa     One more time. Use his full name! [14:39] Hanzawa     Huh? Sure... [14:41] Hanzawa     Mikado Kousuke! Answer me! [14:44] Mikado     Yes, sir! [14:46] Hiyakawa     This will hurt. Just bear with it. [14:52] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun, not yet.     Don't lose consciousness. [15:00] Hiyakawa     It's all right. You're all clean inside now. [15:03] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun, tell me. What did you see? [15:07] Mikado     A box... [15:08] Hiyakawa     A box? [15:09] Mikado     It was... [15:12] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun, it's all right. [15:14] Hiyakawa     It's not scary anymore, right? [15:16] Mikado     Scary... [15:18] Mikado     It... wasn't... scary. [15:21] Mikado     It was... [15:24] Mikado     It was Mom's jewelry box. [15:31] Hanzawa     So... what? You're saying to     stay away from that place? [15:34] Hiyakawa     If it's just you, Hanzawa-san,     I'm sure you'll be fine. [15:37] Hiyakawa     I think it's like a pitfall, so there's     no telling what might happen. [15:42] Hanzawa     Um, there's something about     this time that bothers me. [15:46] Hiyakawa     You may not go. It's too perilous. [15:49] Mikado     I'm not gonna go there, but looking     into it should be fine, right? [15:54] Hiyakawa     Well, to be honest, I'm quite     interested in it myself. [15:59] Hiyakawa     I'd like to know what     kind of person built it. [16:02] Hiyakawa     Hanzawa-san, [16:03] Hiyakawa     could you look for other places where people     have gone missing in the same manner? [16:07] Hanzawa     Places? [16:09] Hiyakawa     Please restrict your search     to places rather than people. [16:12] Hiyakawa     We'll collect rumors about disappearances     and haunted spots. We may find overlap. [16:18] Mikado     Ugh, haunted spots... [16:21] Hiyakawa     Oh, right. [16:22] Hiyakawa     Also, please do not exclude religious     institutions or research labs. [16:26] Hanzawa     Sure, but don't expect     too much. Just be patient. [16:32] Mikado     I'm home. [16:40] Mikado     My memories probably just     got mixed together... Right? [16:44] Mikado     I do see it every day, after all. [16:50] Mikado's mom     What are you looking at? [16:53] Mikado's mom     Oh, my! Was that static electricity? [16:56] Mikado     I don't know. That startled me. [16:59] Mikado     Did it hurt? [17:01] Mikado's mom     No. It was just a surprise. [17:04] Mikado's mom     What were you looking at? [17:05] Mikado's mom     Was there something you     wanted? I'll give it to you. [17:07] Mikado     No, there isn't. I saw one like it... or... [17:12] Mikado     I just sort of remembered it. [17:13] Mikado's mom     Really? [17:15] Mikado's mom     You know, when you were little,     you really loved this. [17:18] Mikado     Really? I don't remember. [17:21] Mikado's mom     You begged me for it all the time.     I never gave it to you, though. [17:25] Mikado     Huh... [17:26] Mikado's mom     Your father gave it to me, and it's     the only thing he left behind. [17:31] Mikado     Really? [17:33] Mikado's mom     That's right. [17:34] Mikado's mom     I took it with me when I went     back to my parents' place, [17:36] Mikado's mom     and while I was there, he disappeared. [17:39] Mikado's mom     If I see him again while we're     alive, I'm gonna slug him. [17:42] Mikado     You're scary. [17:44] Mikado's mom     Hey, don't you want this? [17:47] Mikado's mom     Look here. [17:48] Mikado     This decoration comes off, [17:49] Mikado's mom     and it becomes an earring. [17:51] Mikado     Nah. I don't have any piercings, anyway. [17:54] Mikado's mom     I think it's some kind     of natural stone, but... [17:57] Mikado     I don't wear accessories, either. [17:59] Mikado's mom     Now, now. Mothers like to give things. [18:02] Mikado's mom     And if you ever find someone     special, you can give it to them. [18:05] Mikado     I guess so. [18:08] Mikado     Wow, it polarizes the light. [18:11] Mikado     I guess for now I can     use it as a phone strap. [18:13] Mikado's mom     What?! A phone strap? [18:16] Mikado     I mean, that's the thing     I have with me the most. [18:18] Mikado's mom     Yes, but... Really? [18:27] Mikado     I wonder... [18:28] Mikado     why that place yesterday didn't scare me. [18:32] Mikado     I could feel that it was dangerous. [18:34] (Flashback) Hiyakawa     If you're with me, you won't be scared anymore. [18:40] Mikado     It's not like when I notice those other things. [18:43] Mikado     Even from far away,     I can spot you at a glance. [18:46] Mikado     I can see you. You can see me. I know     we'll always be able to find each other. [18:53] Mikado     What is this, I wonder? [18:55] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun. [18:56] Mikado     Why are you here? [18:58] Mikado     Today's my day off. [18:59] Mikado     Was it coincidence? Spirit sense? [19:01] Hiyakawa     Destiny, perhaps. [19:03] Mikado     You need something? [19:04] Hiyakawa     Hanzawa-san sent some information, [19:07] Hiyakawa     but it's all on paper, so I     thought I'd bring it to you. [19:10] Mikado     Oh, you want me to digitize them? [19:11] Hiyakawa     Yes. And if you'd look through them, as well. [19:15] Hiyakawa     Please be careful not     to go near those places. [19:18] Mikado     Why? Are they dangerous after all? [19:20] Hiyakawa     I don't know. But you are easily influenced. [19:24] Hiyakawa     If it mixes with what I made,     it might be dangerous, so be careful. [19:28] Hiyakawa     Later, then. [19:32] Mikado     Wait, wait! [19:33] Mikado     Did you just say, "what I made"? [19:36] Hiyakawa     Yes. [19:37] Hiyakawa     Oh, I only meant they're similar, though. [19:40] Hiyakawa     I have my own methods, after all. [19:42] Hiyakawa     I was surprised that there's someone     else with the same thought. [19:45] Mikado     Wait, hang on. That was     something bad, wasn't it? [19:48] Hiyakawa     What do you mean by "bad"? [19:50] Mikado     To me, it looked like... a dam     meant to help store up poison. [19:55] Mikado     If you used it, it'd be... [19:56] Mikado     Is there a way to use it other     than cursing people? A good way? [20:00] Hiyakawa     Well, let's see. [20:02] Hiyakawa     The way I think of it,     right now I'm a cleaner, [20:05] Hiyakawa     but perhaps I could also     achieve the phase before that. [20:08] Mikado     Before? [20:10] Hiyakawa     Yes. [20:11] Hiyakawa     First, you dirty, then you clean up. [20:13] Hiyakawa     Right now, all I do is clean, [20:15] Hiyakawa     but wouldn't it be better     to be able to do both? [20:20] Mikado     Like lighting a fire so you're     the hero to put it out. [20:22] Hiyakawa     Lighting a... What do you mean? [20:26] Mikado     By "dirty," do you mean "curse"? [20:31] Hiyakawa     It makes financial sense, doesn't it? [20:36] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun... [20:38] Hiyakawa     Why are you angry? [20:41] Hiyakawa     Mikado-kun, you... [20:43] Hiyakawa     You initiated... [20:44] Mikado     Show me what's inside you! [20:47] Hiyakawa     Inside me? [20:49] Mikado     It's always you looking     inside me. That isn't fair! [20:52] Mikado     Tell me the truth! [20:53] Mikado     What kind of person are you?! [20:57] Hiyakawa     What kind of person... am I? [21:01] Hiyakawa     I don't mind letting you look at my core. [21:06] Hiyakawa     Any time. [21:08] Hiyakawa     But... [21:09] Hiyakawa     You ask "what kind of person" I am? [21:14] Hiyakawa     That's something even I... [21:18] Hiyakawa     do not know. [21:24] Mikado     Huh? [21:30] Mikado     Hey! [21:32] Mikado; echo     Hey! [21:45] Hiyakawa     Could you see anything? [21:47] Hiyakawa     If you did see something, [21:50] Hiyakawa     would you understand me? [21:52] Mikado     I mean... Whether I understand or not... [21:55] Mikado     Is it wrong for me to want to know? [21:59] Mikado     Even if you don't care either way... [22:03] Mikado     I... [22:05] Mikado     I want to know you.
