01x10 - Episode 10

[bunniefuu]

You coppers must be

MIU car, look out!

banned.

Holy smokes.

Police say the man who died was

a suspect with an unknown identity.

Headed to the police station.

They will continue to investigate

the cause of the expl*si*n.

They're going to hide it, huh?

THIS IS HAMADA

DEAR NIGHTCRAWLER,

"I'm directly contacting you,

since Narikawa got arrested."

He got arrested?

"I've information

concerning the expl*si*n."

HANDLE WITH CARE.TX

SHIBAURA POLICE STATION

It was a high-performance

b*mb equivalent to a C-4.

We're analyzing the residue.

How are the No.1 MIU guys?

Two will need two weeks to recover.

One was severely burnt

and in critical condition.

The perp will pay for this.

This is Etori's autopsy results.

A pulmonary contusion caused

by the expl*si*n k*lled him.

There's one peculiar point.

Etori had cosmetic surgery done.

Here's info from Anti-Organized Crime.

According to his DNA analysis,

Etori's real name is Satoru Kogami.

That's before the surgery.

Kogami was a suspect in a m*rder case.

He jumped and died

before he was interrogated.

Judging from the evidence,

the police concluded he was dead.

But he wasn't dead.

He changes his face and becomes Etori.

He survives by financing yakuza gangs.

The question is who k*lled him.

We found a GPS tracker on his necktie pin.

That's what the drone tracked.

Understood.

According to Etori's assistant,

Etori seemed like he was getting

orders from someone.

I found something interesting

from Kogami's old file.

He had been telling

his acquaintances something.

"I've met an interesting young man."

"He knows a lot about cryptocurrency."

"And he used to work

at a system developing firm."

Apparently, he set up many backdoors

on the systems he helped create.

Backdoor?

It's a secret way to get into a system.

If set up during development,

it's virtually undetectable.

He could extract any info.

So this young man was exploiting Etori?

Kuzumi?

No, it's nothing.

Is that a hunch?

It's just an idea.

Please forget what I said.

It's okay.

-Who is that?

-A donut EP dealer.

Has a Kansai accent. In his 20s.

Frequented a club in Ikebukuro.

We don't know where he is now.

This is

the only photo we have.

Ikebukuro is the Tatsui g*ng's turf.

Etori was their financer.

So, it's possible.

All right.

Let's go catch Kuzumi.

He's still just a person of interest.

Where will we go anyway?

Like Ikebukuro?

We don't even know his face.

You just had a hunch too.

Stop fighting.

Anti-Organized Crime is

running the investigation.

They haven't asked for help.

So, we just sit here?

Actually, we've got a play.

Someone who has met Kuzumi.

Narikawa.

He's met Kuzumi.

We will speak with him about

the prank call incident today.

-We'll mention Kuzumi then.

-That's legal.

I like it.

-I want Kokonoe and Mr. Jinba to go.

-Roger.

You two search for more evidence.

Yes.

I need your support, Itomaki.

Of course.

Can you continue without resting?

Come on.

The suspect

and two cops became casualties.

A b*mb k*lled a person in broad daylight.

It's a challenge to the police.

We will catch the b*mber.

Let's get this scumbag.

It seemed like Mr. Kuzumi knew

Mr. Etori for a long time.

What's Kuzumi like?

How do you know him?

When I was fleeing from the police,

I texted my senior from the track team.

Mr. Kuzumi came to meet me

instead of my senior.

He got me a place to stay

and a new mobile.

He said I needed to make connections.

Any idea where he might be?

We would always meet

at a shared office in Ikebukuro.

Hello.

Police. We're looking for Kuzumi.

Don't hide anything now.

He took his stuff and said

he won't be coming for a while.

We need to check his locker.

Sure.

You use, don't you?

I don't use anything.

Donut EP.

See.

You on meth too?

Come here.

Did you

use donut EP too?

I did.

Just once.

But our track team

was shut down because of it.

So, I only used it once.

Donut Ep on the table, now.

Police. Don't move.

Give yourself up and get help.

The drug that you use is cheap.

It's not lucrative at all.

They sell it because

it's a gateway drug to meth.

That's what makes money.

There's always a yakuza g*ng

behind every deal.

They want to make each one of you hooked.

You'll waste your money and life on meth.

Show me what you have.

Stop before it's too late.

Kuzumi?

KUZUMI

The number you have

dialed is no longer in use

Any other means?

-I can't reach him since yesterday.

-I see.

-Empty your pockets.

-Who knows how to reach Kuzumi?

I can't reach him since yesterday.

Me neither.

Mr. Kuzumi said he was

from Tennoji, Osaka.

He said it's his hometown.

I lived with my mother in a small place.

I still remember the smell

of the humid room.

My mom ultimately died like garbage.

I told him about my terrible dad,

and he told me his dad was too.

I grew up with just my dad too.

I don't even know what my mom looks like.

He said that his PC was his only friend.

Me too.

I built my first PC in middle school.

I knew I sensed

something familiar coming from you.

By the way,

you said you're studying hard

for the college entrance exam.

Here.

Relax a little.

Don't tell anyone.

Hey, Shima.

What?

What is this guy, Kuzumi?

Mephistopheles, perhaps?

What?

A demon.

He lures people

into giving him their souls.

What language is that? Mekemekephelet.

Mephistopheles.

Forget it.

Mekemekephelet Kuzumi.

Drone bombing, m*rder,

and attempted m*rder of three.

I bet there are

countless unseen victims out there.

Hello.

Hey, Gomi.

-Hey.

-Long time no see.

-What have you been up to?

-The usual.

Just hanging out and living my life.

Sounds like you.

I know.

No cameras near the shared office.

Widening the scope will be time-consuming.

Itomaki?

Hello?

Captain. Look.

The moment of the expl*si*n.

Who is the man the police erased?

The person who died allegedly has no name.

Why do the police hide his identity?

Female con artist M

is crucial in answering this.

The female con artist M is

related to a police executive.

So, she's been able

to conceal her past felonies.

Guess who was after M?

The unidentified man

who died in the expl*si*n.

According to sources,

the C-4 used in the bombing was

an item the police

had confiscated from a yakuza g*ng.

The truth of

the bombing m*rder case is this:

The police committed this attack

to conceal their own crimes.

The existence

of this green van supports this fact.

The van was at the scene of the expl*si*n.

It must have played a role

in concealing evidence.

Then we have this man.

I had met him this April.

I'm telling you. We're No.4 MIU.

This mysterious No.4 MIU.

As soon as I started

doing research on them,

their official site became

a 404 error page.

It's time to "Rec the check."

The mysterious No.4 MIU is

a special team to do one thing!

Conceal the crimes of the police.

I've never reached

500 thousand views this quickly.

Yes?

Hello. Police.

Mr. Yukai Kojima. Open the door.

You know why we're here.

This video.

Why spread such a lie?

I make my videos based on facts.

I see no facts in your videos.

What do you consider facts?

You posted this on Tbutter.

I already deleted it.

But the screenshots are everywhere!

I mean, she's a con artist, right?

She is not a con artist.

Prove it.

Prove that she is.

That's

You got it from Hamada.

Narikawa introduced you to him.

He doesn't exist.

Hamada is Kuzumi.

A donut EP dealer.

He's indirectly involved with a g*ng.

We think Kuzumi is the b*mber.

No way.

Aren't you smarter than me?

Then use your brain.

If the police want someone dead,

there are better ways.

Ways to k*ll secretly.

You're dumber than me.

Mr. Kojima.

You're just forcefully connecting

two dots to forge a story.

Has it ever crossed your mind

that you're being duped?

Do you know the guy well?

Is he trustworthy?

No.1 HQ to MIU 404.

Return to HQ immediately.

404. That's us.

404

That's our number.

Anyway, we haven't done anything wrong.

We're just a contingency unit of MIU.

Remember that, idiot.

Call us if you have something.

MIU 404

The media might come thanks to that video.

The captain wants you

to escort Mugi and Yutaka to her home.

Where is she?

Explaining the matter at the HQ.

-Explain what?

-A few influencers have dropped the b*mb.

"Female con artist M's close contact is

Captain Kikyo of No.1 MIU."

Conspiracy theorists are having

a field day on the Internet.

Unbelievable.

Going against the police

gets people excited.

It's easy to bash someone

who never talks back.

Everybody's dying to judge someone.

Forget the Internet. Just don't go on it.

That's hard to do these days.

Anyway, we'll be going.

Where's Kyu-chan?

Kokonoe is no longer in MIU.

What?

Why?

Captain.

Please tell me.

Why am I going back to NPA?

Is it because I let Narikawa get away,

which led to Etori's death?

-No.

-It's an order from above.

He's worried

your career might get tainted.

My father?

It's my father's decision?

-Captain.

-We've some questions.

Get out of here now.

I'll answer you over there.

I'll just take this for now.

-Okay.

-I'm not going.

Huh?

I'll wait for my mom.

Hey, Yutaka.

If we go, my mom would be

alone when she gets back.

Adults can stand being alone.

No. I can't take it.

Yutaka.

Hey

Huh?

There's no evidence that proves

the woman is a con artist,

and I'm not her relative.

No.4 MIU was unofficially

created as a temporary means

to alleviate the shortage of officers

caused by the Work System Reform.

Why was the official site deleted?

It was never deleted.

There was too much traffic

that day by chance,

which caused

the "404 not found" error to appear.

Our site recovered the next day.

Oh.

What?

When there's too much traffic,

a 503 error comes up, not 404.

-What?

-Why are you lying?

-Why is that?

-Please explain.

We have a page

that indicates all kinds of error,

but it hadn't been uploaded.

I didn't tell her

the 404 page happened to show up last.

I didn't get that.

-Why are you lying?

-Please explain.

The error page appeared by coincidence.

Stop turning every assumption

into a conspiracy.

-What do you mean conspiracy?

-That's terrible.

That will be all. Thank you.

REC RULES!

EXPOSE THE SINS OF THE POLICE!

I WANT TO SEEK OUT THE TRUTH LIKE HIM

"The truth"

SHE LOOKS SCARY

I BET SHE NEGLECTS HER CHILD

CAPTAIN IS RELATED TO CON ARTIST M.

SLEPT WITH AN EXEC AND HAD YUTAKA

HOT CAPTAIN IS A SINGLE MOTHER

Yes. Okay. Understood.

Mr. Jinba said our duty

is over for the day.

You can stay over then.

What?

Come on.

What? You think you'll get

to have it your way?

Is Ms. Kikyo all right?

Living with me has caused her problems.

No. It's not your fault.

Sorry.

Thinking like that is

disrespectful to Ms. Kikyo.

Shima.

Sorry, Yutaka's made you stay here alone.

What are you doing?

I got hungry, so I made some MIU udon.

That hits the spot.

Open a udon shop when you retire.

Then the name would be No.4 MIU Udon.

Mysterious No.4 MIU.

Minion of Police Noodles.

Shadow Army.

People say anything.

It's hilarious.

The police wouldn't stage

a b*mb attack in broad daylight.

Any sane person would know that.

Even Ibuki couldn't believe it.

Even Ibuki gets it. Is everybody stupid?

They used to say I became

captain because I was pretty.

Now they say

I slept with an exec to get here.

So, this executive is

apparently Yutaka's father.

-Who are these people?

-These idiots.

I can't take this.

I'm working over here.

I work in a stale,

patriarchal organization.

They don't know how hard

I've worked to get here.

They don't get it.

Are they stupid?

They even made up

a story about Yutaka's father.

It enrages me.

Let's eat. It's getting cold.

Yes.

But MIU udon is good even if it's cold.

Well

that's convenient.

My father assigned me to MIU

because he wanted to be with MIU.

Here you go.

He thinks he can move

me around as he pleases.

This is my life.

I understand his concerns.

Why?

No.4 MIU may get dismantled anytime.

It's better to take you back

to NPA before that happens.

To keep your career unharmed.

Career this, career that.

It is if you wish to

get to the top of NPA.

You're not a soldier like us.

You're going to talk like that too?

Don't take it the wrong way.

Your career will allow you

to do things we can't do.

That's how you'll one day

be able to help us soldiers.

I'm

ridiculously fortunate, aren't I?

We were in First Investigation

ten years ago.

It's been that long?

During that time,

you became chief inspector.

Next thing I knew, you were with a guy.

Next thing you knew?

I'm not obliged to tell you anything.

I know. It's just that it surprised me.

One day, we were suddenly told,

"Ms. Kikyo's going on maternity leave."

It happens, you know?

Before I knew it, you became a mother.

Then you became superintendent.

Then captain of MIU.

Quick as lightning.

Plus, you saved Hamu-chan

while achieving all that.

It's impressive.

I couldn't have done it alone.

Hamu-chan and Yutaka helped me.

You guys helped me.

But I couldn't help my officers.

One b*mb was all it took.

Nobody could've expected that.

How do we fight an enemy

who would do anything?

The police must protect the weak.

We must be correct.

We must be innocent.

Just k*ll all the bad guys.

Where did you learn to speak like that?

Huh?

But I used to think that too.

But there are laws,

and we have to respect them.

Bad guys don't. That's not fair.

Still.

Shima always says

we have to respect the law.

Otherwise, justice becomes injustice.

-Injustice?

-Not being right.

Perhaps justice is very weak.

What good is it, then?

Hey, that's a good point.

It's weak, so we all have

to take care of it.

Otherwise, it might disappear.

Anti-Organized Crime

still haven't found

the source of the donut EP?

We checked the Tatsui g*ng's

maritime route for meth.

No sign of donut EP.

It's never been detected at customs,

yet it's widely distributed in Japan.

Maybe it's made in Japan.

If I remember correctly,

someone said Mr. Etori's firm

or factory is located at Rokujugo.

Rokujugo?

Yes.

It's in Ota Ward.

Hey. Morning.

Huh?

Wasn't your house that way?

Our station is this way.

It's hard to go home

and rest in this situation.

I understand.

I'm on my way to return the van.

Is the passenger seat open?

What do you think?

Let's go.

Can I ask one thing before we?

Don't ask.

-I haven't said anything.

-I know what's coming.

-Shima

-Don't.

-Captain

-What did I say?

Did you two get intimate last night?

We did not get intimate.

Guess what happened?

He's a truly competent subordinate.

He's helped me many times

in No. 4 MIU too.

Look. This is Shima.

What?

The captain takes great care of me.

There's also a wild kid named Ibuki.

I wanted you to meet him too.

I dozed off, and when I woke up,

it was morning.

Shima.

You're a handsome guy.

-There's a handsome guy here.

-Shut up.

That's lovely.

You can't beat a dead guy.

This sure is a flashy van.

It's fine. We have nothing to hide.

Hello.

Could you spare some time?

These are the factories in Rokugo.

I need you to check these four points.

I can check them when I go on patrol.

Thank you.

The firms and buildings

may be Kuzumi's assets,

but they're in another guy's name

with no evidence connecting them.

The portrait.

We'll make it tomorrow based

on Narikawa's description.

Well, aren't we laid back.

The mobiles?

Narikawa and Kuzumi both used

SIM cards from the same shop.

This mobile shop is owned by a g*ng,

and we can't trace the cards' users.

We'll just have to find him.

I'll go look for him.

-Stop. Where are you going?

-Ikebukuro.

He's long gone.

We're told to stand by here.

Don't go snooping around.

I just can't stand standing by.

SUPPLEMENT CONTRACT MANUFACTURER

LEAD CAMP INC.

Is 7-9-30 of Rokugo here?

Yes, this is it.

ACRYLIC PROCESSING PLAN

Police? Why all of the sudden?

I don't know.

An officer wanted to see

what we were making here.

Thanks.

This is what we make here.

I told him he couldn't enter

the clean room.

Let's shut down that factory by tonight.

Why?

The police are being grilled

on the Internet now.

Acting on our own could worsen things.

We'll get Kuzumi

before it becomes a problem.

Where do we find him?

We're going out to find that out, idiot.

An ex post facto report is acceptable

only in an urgent situation.

We can get urgent. Let's get urgent.

You don't understand

the word "urgent," do you?

Of course I understand.

Like a covert op situation, right?

You're a fool.

God, I'm bored.

Who's this?

Hello?

We got an urgent situation.

Hey.

Either the police are lying,

or my source Mr. Hamada is lying.

I can't tell.

So, I'm going to contact Mr. Hamada.

Can you?

He won't see me in person.

-Come on.

-What's your plan?

Create a situation

that will force him to talk with me.

Delicious.

NIGHTCRAWLER REC: URGENT FAVOR

The police are coming in 30 minutes.

I need to talk to you

urgently before that.

It's about a complicated issue,

so I prefer speaking with you.

-Sounds good.

-You'll call?

No, he refused to talk

on the phone once, so I'll use SOON.

SOON?

It's a video conference platform

that's getting popular abroad.

You don't need to be registered to use it.

You can talk

without disclosing your identity?

Yes.

Will he agree to such a fishy proposition?

If he has the knowledge, he will.

He'd know that it's safe.

Fine, fine.

START CONFERENCE

Connecting now.

Wait! The video!

-We're on camera?

-He can see us.

I'm turning off the camera.

Don't make any sound.

Okay.

START CONFERENCE

HAMADA

Hello. I'm Rec.

Thanks for your constant support.

Subscribers have skyrocketed,

and I can easily support myself.

Anyway

what's this story

about the police visiting you?

He's probably changed his voice.

VOICE CHANGER

It's about the video.

They want to know where I got the info

that the C-4 was seized by the police.

Naturally, I won't mention your name.

I won't show them the file either.

But in exchange, I'd like

to have a collateral for the info.

Collateral?

If the info isn't true,

I'll be charged for spreading a lie.

You realized this now?

Anyway, I need evidence

that your information is accurate.

The info's from a reliable source.

But I can't tell you who.

According to your source the b*mb was C-4,

but apparently, it was gelignite.

Huh?

Gelignite isn't that powerful.

Apparently not if you use

1,5 times the amount.

Where did you hear that?

A friend from the Self-Defense Force.

You can't fool me like that.

It was certainly C-4 that was used.

Please hold.

Hello?

The police are doing an inspection

at a nearby intersection.

They're there until next morning.

Inspection?

That's unlucky.

What do we do?

He was sure that it was C-4.

Only the perp could say so

with so much conviction.

Oh

We're still analyzing the residue.

Wow. Good job, Shima.

Sorry, I need to take care

of urgent business.

I need to go now.

What do we do?

Buy time by asking where he is.

Yes.

Wait. Tell me what I should say

to the cops who are coming.

Aren't you persistent.

Lowlife NowTuber.

You won't gain anything by upsetting me.

If you bark too much,

I might have to drop some more bombs.

I guess I'll do that.

That'll solve everything.

It's your fault.

You and

those other two.

Yes.

You.

Two police dogs.

I see you.

I see everything.

Huh?

You guys were there yesterday.

What was it?

MIU 404?

What is going on here?

I don't know.

I don't.

HANDLE WITH CARE.TX

That allowed him to hijack my PC?

What?

I guess we can talk then.

Kuzumi. Give yourself up.

The flight record of the drone is gone.

There's no way to track its flight.

There's no evidence whatsoever.

People always leave evidence.

Then I guess I'm not human?

You can't judge a non-human.

Shut your mouth you m*rder*r.

You control people

from a safe room and ruin their lives.

Is that fun?

I told you. I'm not human,

so I have no sympathy for humans.

You eat pork and chicken, right?

Sashimi? That's a chopped up corpse.

You eat them half alive.

We're talking about people here.

Go on with your gibberish,

but you have a body of a human.

As long as you're human,

you will be judged according to law.

How can you?

You don't know my face,

my name, or my whereabouts.

Actually

I know what you are.

Huh?

Mekemekephelet.

"Meke?"

Forget that.

Did you mean "ferret?"

What is that? What is "mekemeke?"

This is Tarou Delivery Service.

Sorry, I spilled the curry udon soup

Anyway, I've a lot of work this evening.

I've no time for your games.

"Tarou apologized to the girl

for spilling curry udon soup"?

"Delivery Tarou is there"?

Thank you very much.

No way.

We talked with Delivery Tarou HQ.

They delivered

two curry udons at 22:45 p.m.

A shared office in Nakameguro called UFO.

The address is Nakameguro 6-18-21.

-We'll be there in ten.

-Yes. We're lucky.

We're coming to get you,

Mekemekephelet Kuzumi.

Ten minutes from Shibuya.

I guess that's fine.

Feign composure while you can.

You'll be punished for lying to me.

You'll be arrested.

You don't know what's coming.

Your a*s is on fire now.

C-4 LIKE THE ONE DROPPED EARLIER

Hey.

I'M DROPPING 12 C-4 BOMBS IN TOKYO

Stop writing my email.

You guys made me want to drop a b*mb.

You're going to be a t*rror1st

Forget being a popular NowTuber.

You'll be famous internationally.

Stop.

They're probably fake as well.

Let's go.
