01x09 - Episode 9

[bunniefuu]

Information was leaking
in the investigation on Invisible.

I did a personal investigation
to find the traitor.

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

The chief was m*rder*d.

The autopsy report doesn't show
anything pointing to a case.

For the time being, I'll have Saruwatari
be the acting division chief

and lead the investigation.

I appreciate your support.

He was trying to tell me something.

Was it about the traitor?

Are you the traitor?

The supervisor's office was aware
that he was monitoring everyone

and making suspicious moves.

Because of the mark
on the back of his head?

I find the burn mark odd.

Kiriko.

I found the Criminal
who k*lled Mr. Inukai.

They're called the Reaper.

The Reaper?

Will you k*ll Shimura
or will you k*ll Toko?

You're smart enough to know
what is it that I want.

k*ll me.

I'll go back.

If you spare the two of them,
I'll go back to Invisible

and work with you, Kirihito.

Goodbye, Shimura.

To end the confrontation,

we could not stop her
from making her decision.

I'm sorry.

No.

Kiriko didn't just give up and go back.

She…

will never give up
on stopping her brother.

I'll get Kiriko back.

Help me.

All right.

Let's go back to the division first.

What is it?

Let's go.

Welcome back.

Sorry, but I must put them on you.

I told you I would cooperate.
What's this about?

I still can't trust you.

And that thing is still with you.

Hey. Come out.

I'm sorry, Kiriko.

He followed me on his own.

Is that so?

Then, can I k*ll him?

If you hurt him,
I won't work with you at all.

I guess he won't matter.

Good.

Let's begin.

We received an email
from someone who calls himself Kirihito.

From Kirihito?

-Did Invisible contact us?
-Yes.

I'll access it.

THIS IS KIRIHITO

First Investigation Division,
did you enjoy the show?

Thanks to you, Kiriko came back to me.

Now you know the world is rife with people
who can't be judged by the law, don't you?

So our work will never be over.

But recently several Criminals
were imprisoned because of you.

You've been such a nuisance.

So, today,
I'm going to tell you about Black Friday.

Black Friday?

The thing is, we're going to partner up
with powerful Criminals abroad.

To celebrate it,
in two days time, on Friday,

I'm going to let them rampage
as much as they want to.

That day will be a joyous occasion

filled with heinous crimes.

But since
the police are too incompetent to respond,

I prepared a special plan
to help you save the day.

In exchange for stopping Black Friday,

I demand that you release

and grant immunity
to all imprisoned Criminals.

What?

They're held in the MPD's
special holding cells.

Release them all.

You have until 22:00 p.m. Friday.

If you don't release them by then,

you'll experience the worst weekend ever.

Then,

think carefully about it.

Is he making a deal with the police?

He's got to be kidding.

He's threatening a t*rror1st attack
on the MPD…

no, on the state.

This case is no longer confined
to the First Division.

We will take charge.

Investigate Kirihito and Kiriko, too,

as his accomplice!

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

Kiriko's hands were
behind her back the whole time.

They've been cuffed.

Saruwatari.

Give me permission to carry a g*n.

All right.

Good.

Let's change locations.

Get up.

p*stol STORAGE UNIT

I'll go with you, Shimura.

And the First Division?

I'll leave it to Director Kagami.

And…

I want to avenge
Chief Inukai's death, too.

I see.

Be good.

Yes.

That's great.

Alright.

I'm counting on you.

What's that?

Kiriko's part-timer
was wearing this smartwatch.

It probably shows his location.

-Is he with Kiriko?
-No.

Kiriko went there by herself.

He's probably pursuing her on his own.

That's why he left this.

Shimura.

Toko.

Since Toko met Kirihito,
the police will protect and debrief her.

Please take care of her.

Taka.

That Kirihito was very scary,
but somehow he seemed lonely.

Watch out.

Okay.

Let's go.

What?

I'm happy because you're by my side.

You wouldn't look at me
and always tried to go somewhere else.

But now you're by my side.

I feel as if
the two of us can make anything work.

But…

you have a buddy.

You're quite friendly with the Reaper.

I heard the voice on the phone.

So it was the Reaper.

That was a trick question.

You've always acted alone,
yet you trust this guy so much.

Tell me more about the Reaper.

Then I'll give you intel on the police.

I have enough of that.

The Reaper is a police officer.

I see.

The Reaper is a traitor.

He's a great guy.

I'll introduce him soon.

Get off.

It's pretty far away.

I'll speed up.

I can't wait to see
those foreign Criminals.

Unless I cancel my request,
they will move on Friday at exactly 22:00.

Also, a Criminal who used to be
a professor makes interesting bombs.

You'd better stop your plan.

Why?

It's best not to make
the police your enemy.

Someday they'll corner you.

It's not too late now. You should stop.

Kiriko, you used to
scorn the police a lot,

calling them an incompetent bunch.

Not all of them are.

You mean, Shimura?

The only detective Father acknowledged.

What's so great about him?

His intelligence?

His leadership?

He…

lost a loved one.

To you.

What?

Sorry.

I remembered what Isogaya
and the others said about you.

They said you weren't
very good at sh**ting.

Please be careful handling a g*n.

The g*n is just insurance
for an emergency.

How about you? Will you be okay?

You aren't usually in the field.

I was born into
a family of police officers,

so I never disliked working in the field.

There are tools in the trunk.

Okay.

His back.

Shimura.

Were you pursuing Kiriko, too?

Yes. The GPS is still in the car.

Take me with you, please.

Let's go.

Why did you come here?

To get what I need.

Let's go.

I think this place

may be Kiriko and Kirihito's old home.

Their old home?

Yes.

Where they lived with their father.

But to be exact,
he wasn't her real father.

We used to study here often,
the three of us.

So she was adopted?

Kiriko doesn't talk about herself often,
so I don't know the specifics.

Her real parents
died a long time ago, I think.

She was probably raised by Invisible.

Kiriko's real parents
may have been k*lled by that man.

It's sickening.

Remember this storage room?

All the data, documents,
and research material

that Father used in his work
are stored here.

Even the top-secret data on past clients.

Before he died,

he set it up so it wouldn't open
without your biometric data.

Open it.

Did you want me to return
so you could open this door?

You said you'd cooperate, right?

You were the only one Father had eyes for,
the only one he acknowledged.

I say his methods were too lukewarm.

I deserve the name Invisible more.

It's a new beginning for us.

Let's go.

Take me with you.

No. You wait here.

If you feel anything going wrong here,
contact us through the radio.

Okay.

Hey.

What's going on?

Did Kirihito hire you?

Who is Kirihito?

Why are you carrying this dangerous stuff?

I don't know.

I saw an ad on the dark web
and came here, that's all.

You too?

Yes.

The pay was good, so lots of people came.

We were told to k*ll anyone
who came near this house.

We are the police.

If you don't want to be arrested,
take those two other guys and leave.

Hey.

This is it.

Good.
I'll move on to the next negotiation.

Haven't you found them yet?

I'm sorry.

We're still searching.

Dear police.
Did you decide to release the Criminals?

Kirihito.

Not yet, I bet.

I want to motivate you some more,
so I'll throw in an extra bargaining chip.

This is
the data on Invisible's past clients.

It includes data on politicians
and influential people.

Of course, it includes
high-level police officials, too.

If the Criminals aren't released,

I'll make it public.

Understand?

We have all the information
that the world isn't supposed to see.

Think about it.

Gas?

Father must have set it up
to prevent something like this.

Kiriko!

Get out of here now!

I still have things to do.

Beware of the Reaper!

SWIPE UP TO USE FACE ID

Shimura speaking.

Kiriko took Kirihito hostage and fled.

Kiriko took Kirihito?

What do you mean?

I don't know what she's trying to do,
but she fled in a car.

It's a black American van.

Understood.

I'll put out an emergency alert.

I'll send some backup there, too.

Thank you.

KIRIKO
NEW MESSAGE

The Criminal who k*lled Chief Inukai
is called the Reaper.

Beware of the Reaper!

The Reaper
is a traitor who leaks police intel.

Father left notes on him on his notebook.

The Reaper was a Criminal
that Father used to hire.

However,
he went beyond what he was supposed to do

and became excessively violent and brutal.

So Father barred him five years ago.

Even if I stop Kirihito,
the Reaper may try something.

The Reaper is still in the MPD.

I'll try to find who he is.

How are you feeling?

I'm alright.

Let's wait here until backup arrives.

Get some rest.

Okay.

I'm sorry for making you drive.

No.

You were a great help.

Not really.

Did Kiriko make contact?

No.

She didn't.

I see.

We're running out of time.

Let's find out
how the higher-ups plan to respond.

Okay.

Let's.

If the Criminals
start running amok everywhere,

many people will end up dying.

Then we can't help
but make some concessions.

Maybe we should release
the imprisoned Criminals one by one

to buy time.

I'm not sure that's the best solution.

Shoudn't we station all MPD officers
in the metropolitan area

and be on full emergency alert?

You are right.

However…

If the corruption in the past is exposed,
the state will be in disgrace.

Is that what you're thinking?

It only means
we must take a stronger stance.

If we bow to Invisible as well,
the MPD will be in disgrace.

You are absolutely right, Saruwatari.

Let's mobilize the entire MPD
to stop the Criminals!

Mobilize all investigators,
put out an emergency alert in Tokyo,

and request cooperation
from neighboring prefectures immediately.

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Get your hands off my computer.

I'll use the access code to request
the cancellation of Black Friday.

The access code…

BLACK FRIDAY

REQUESTING CANCELLATION

Who is the Reaper?

Never mind.

I'll find him myself.

THE REAPER

REQUEST FOR THE m*rder OF SHOGO INUKAI

So Chief Inukai really was…

REQUEST FOR THE m*rder OF RINA ICHINOSE

AT THE SCENE, WAS k*lled TOO

And Mr. Anno, too.

SHINGO ANNO

I believe in the justice of the police.

When I see you, Shimura,
I always see justice.

Shimura!

I honestly wish

that an exceptional detective like you
could lead everyone.

Was it about the traitor?

Are you the traitor?

Because of the mark
on the back of his head?

I find the burn mark odd.

Beware of the Reaper!

And Father's k*ller was…

also the Reaper.

You hired the man Father barred
to have him k*lled?

It's all Father's fault.

Because of him,

we were isolated.

We don't have names, family registers,
or even friends.

The people in the world ignore us.

But after meeting the Reaper I understood.

It's okay to look down on people.

It's okay to threaten your enemy.
It's okay to k*ll useless people.

The Reaper
didn't get along with Father, either.

So he k*lled
Father in a place where I can't see him.

He's my right-hand man now.

His plan is watertight.

His plan?

Yeah.

He's a genius,
so he set up multipronged strategies.

BLACK FRIDAY - REAPER

MAKE A WEAPON TO b*mb THE MPD
SEND IT TO ME AND THE REAPER

b*mb the MPD?

A Criminal who used to be a professor
makes interesting bombs.

PLANS FOR BLACK FRIDAY

Black Friday was also the Reaper's idea.

I'm going to keep working with him.

Shimura.

A security camera caught Kiriko's car
in Setsunan-cho, Itabashi District.

This is the data.

Good job.

I'll search that area.

You ask for backup later.

Okay.

It's Shimura.

I managed to cancel Black Friday.

But a b*mb is planted in the MPD.

What?

The Reaper planted it.

The Reaper?

Your partner, Chief Inukai,

and my father were k*lled by…

Hey.

Kiriko.

What the?

You can't use smartphones
or computers anymore.

The data has been destroyed.

All electrical systems are out.

The ex-professor Criminal
built this electric pulse generator.

The pulse it generates destroys
the electric devices within range.

It's for an emergency.

The Reaper called it an "invisible b*mb."

I won't let you
get in the way of our plan.

Check this phone call.

Find out where she is.

Okay.

Kiriko just made contact.

Listen, everyone.

Right now,

a b*mb is planted in the MPD.

A b*mb?

What do you mean?

The call was cut off
before I could hear more.

I want everyone to go find it.

Understood.

Isogaya.

Igarashi.

I want you to take the others
and search the MPD premises thoroughly.

But investigators are all out there
because of the emergency alert.

The timing couldn't be worse.

We have no choice.

Let's split up and do it.

-Yes.
-Yes.

Before that,

I want to tell you something.

In this case,

there's a traitor
who is involved in Chief Inukai's m*rder

and is connected to Kirihito.

The person is a police officer.

It could even be one of us.

So trust no one.

That's right.

From now on work in pairs, please.

-Yes.
-Yes.

Shimura. Where are you going?

Kiriko's car was witnessed
in Setsunan-cho, Itabashi.

I'm heading there.

I'll go with you.

Let's go.

-Look under the table.
-Yes.

What kind of a b*mb is it?
I can't find it anywhere.

Let's check other floors, Isogaya.

Okay.

Damn.

I don't see it.

Detective Kishi, let's move on.

-There.
-Got it.

RECORDS

Kiriko. Your effort is pointless.

Some powers that be

have their or their family's
criminal records erased from the database.

Just before his m*rder, Chief Inukai

was looking into
the criminal records of minors.

He felt something was off
and started to comb through old records

that weren't in the database.

So what?

m*rder OF HOUSEKEEPER
IN DAIKANYAMA NANACHOME

This is it.

RANDOM m*rder IN SHINBI SANCHOME

TRANSFER OF JUVENILE CASE

THE BOY WHO WAS DISCIPLINED
SEVERAL TIMES, WAS A SUSPECT IN…

That guy
k*lled Chief Inukai to prevent him

from digging up his past.

The Reaper

is the acting chief of the First Division,
Shinichiro Saruwatari.

SUSPECT - SHINICHIRO SARUWATARI
(AGE 11 AT THE TIME)

Pretending to monitor Shimura,

he got in the way
of tracking down the Criminals,

using his position as supervisor.

Soon, the Reaper
will flip the detonation switch.

The MPD will be in chaos.

The imprisoned Criminals will wreak havoc.

Kiriko.

Do you know why Shimura
hasn't been k*lled yet?

He is apparently
a valuable toy for the Reaper.

That's why he keeps him alive.

I hope she is safe.

Kiriko, I mean.

Yeah.

It's Shimura.

Got it.

They found Kiriko's location.
Kamie Building in Shibakita-cho.

Got it.

Damn. I can't find it.

Where could it be planted?

The Third Division is clear.

Conference rooms and hallways, clear.

Fourth and Fifth Divisions, clear.

Electrical room and furnace room,
both clear.

Search every nook and cranny
one more time!

Shimura?

Sorry, Saruwatari.

I can't trust anyone now.

Wait for me here.

We're the best partners.

It's like the way you feel about Shimura.

Why did you choose him, Kiriko?

Why not me?

Why a detective like him?

You see nothing.

Really,

you see nothing.

You don't see those
around you or yourself.

That's why
you aren't aware of what death is.

The feelings of a dying person.

Have you ever thought about that?

The sorrow of losing a loved one.

Have you ever thought about that?

How Father must have felt
when he was m*rder*d

by the son he loved the most…

and how I felt because I couldn't stop…

his m*rder.

NEXT WEEK - FINAL EPISODE

The best weekend will soon begin.

Stop it!

I love seeing your sad face so much,
Shimura.

I'll put an end to Invisible.
I think that's my mission.

I believe in my own justice.
