Stop.
Zoom in.
Where was this cartridge manufactured?
I cannot answer that.
Then, who has been given authority to know that information?
I cannot answer that.
Play.
Are you researching something?
When I was locked up, how did you sense that I was in danger?
A powerful radio jamming occurred and I lost sight of your location.
That's when I became restless.
Any contact from HEUSC?
No. I believe the frequency that connects HEUSC back here also had some sort of interference.
Is there something wrong?
No.
Um, if there is anything that I may help you with...
No need.
Senpai, it'll be all right!
But this is an inquiry.
The incident was what it was. But this is probably just a formality, right?
That's right!
"TIENGUANYIN GUMMY"
Have a Tienguanyin Gummy!
I had these sent all the way from Fujian Province!
I heard that it brings in good luck.
Please cheer up!
Because we did what we could!
That's right. We did something that First Division couldn't even do!
Thanks, everyone.
Enter.
"JUSTICE"
Now, you caused immense chaos during the investigation process,
and on top of that, you allowed the suspect to die, and the truth remains shrouded in mystery.
First of all, we must clarify where the responsibility lies in this case.
Depending on the situation, it might not end with a simple pay cut.
Anything to say?
We were taking a break as Inspector Kato instructed!
We were!
I tried to stop him.
I was ordered by Inspector Kato, "With me!" so I had no choice.
Well, it's true that I said that, but...
Inspector Kato, refrain from arbitrary comments.
It's true that we allowed the suspect to die, but we did save the President's life.
That was the result of Officer Saeki
communicating with the embassy's old janitor, no?
You have nothing to do with it.
You can explain to them, too.
Explain what?
I was off-duty, and I wasn't involved with the mission.
That is all. Punishment for Inspector Kato will be relayed at a later time.
Now, Inspector Kato, you will have no part in this case from hereon.
All of you are so heartless.
Sorry.
Don't worry!
Hello, Modern Crimes.
Yes.
I'm going to head out for a bit.
Yes.
Understood.
There was a fight in the subway.
I pass!
All right, fine.
Come on, Kambe, let's go.
I'm busy.
How's it going? Did you figure something out?
Just like you suspected, Cho-san.
The chances that Mizuo Future Technologies
was involved in the manufacturing of the jamming device is pretty high.
And they're likely in on the toxic gas cartridge device as well.
But the higher-ups are planning to cover it up.
I made a copy of the report I submitted to my superiors, just in case.
To interfere with both wired and wireless...
I don't have the slightest idea what the principle behind it is.
It looks like it's the work of that substance that looks like sea grapes,
but I reckon it's military technology that's classified information.
Sorry to have troubled you.
It smells pretty fishy.
You shouldn't go in too deep.
You want something?
There's something I want to ask you.
Me, too. But now isn't the time.
It's been a while since we've had drinks alone.
Don't you think it's strange?
What is?
This case. The higher-ups are in a hurry to draw the curtains.
The jamming device and toxic gas device that we seized
were all taken by the guys in Ichigaya.
I guess there's a reason why they don't want further probing.
Do you know something?
The company that makes cartridges for that device, Mizuo Future Technologies,
has something to do with a cold case that I investigated in the past.
A cold case?
I'm sure I'll talk about it in due time.
It's not long before I retire. If possible, I want to leave with no regrets.
Can you help me out?
Of course. Please let me help you!
Thanks.
Oh, right. What kind of guy is Kambe?
He's revolting, but he's not as bad of a guy as I thought.
May I have a moment?
I'm from the MPD.
You're Ms. Imura, the International Business Division director, right?
That sure is an interesting car. Neo-futuristic, so to say?
Nothing less from someone who works in a cutting-edge corporation.
What can I help you with?
This. You're familiar with this, right?
It was used in a radio jamming device that was confiscated in a certain case.
If we can talk a little bit about this--
There's nothing to talk about.
Is there a reason why you can't assist the police?
Sir? This is Imura. Right now, I'm surrounded by detectives.
Yes. Understood.
Yes, I will do that.
If you'd like to discuss something please go through the company.
Our conversation will be recorded from this point on.
If there's any illegal investigation--
Sorry to take your time!
Come on.
Pay double the cost of any damages incurred as they happen.
Understood. Balance: UNLIMITED.
Someone... Stop this!
Kazuko Imura?
You're under arrest for suspicion of reckless driving and vehicular manslaughter.
That's not... I didn't do this...
I didn't...
Call an ambulance!
Hurry!
No need. He was killed instantly. Get out of the car.
Hey.
Morning.
Good morning.
The busy rich boy aside... Cho-san isn't here either?
He's here. Both of them are in the interrogation room.
Cho-san.
Looks like he dragged her down here for reckless driving.
Reckless driving?
Apparently she went on a car chase with a police car at over 100 km/h.
This isn't a coincidence, is it?
Mizuo Future Technologies where Imura works is deeply involved with the Kambe Group.
Is that so?
Then, we should join the interrogation.
The Superintendent General's official notice was to leave all interrogation to Kambe.
The Superintendent General?
What in the world is going on?
About the toxic gas cartridge confiscated at the embassy...
Your company was involved in its production, right?
What's the meaning of this? I was brought here for reckless driving.
Which department handles the cartridge, and what is the name of the person in charge?
I don't know.
How reliable was that answer?
I cannot answer that.
Please call for my lawyer.
What alloy material is used in that cartridge?
I don't know. I have no idea what--
You used Poliador Kambe Ltd. to illegally import it, didn't you?
Please call my lawyer! Now!
Have you ever met Shigemaru Kambe?
I don't know anyone by that name.
What's he been asking about? I don't understand.
Open this woman's computer.
It is locked with a password.
Unlock it, and show the screen on the wall.
What are you...
Open all files onto the desktop.
Opening files.
How in the world...
Increase speed by a thousand fold.
"ENTRANCE CEREMONY"
Task complete.
Keep only the files you couldn't open on the desktop.
"LABORATORY 3"
"TRANSACTION DATA WITH REPUBLIC OF POLIADOR"
"TRANSACTION DATA ADM"
Call for my lawyer! Now!
Open the file named ADM.
Stop it!
There is a password on it.
Unlock it.
You do not have that authorization.
Looks like he hit a brick wall.
What will you do?
Yeah, it's me. Are you doing well?
Um...
There's someone I want you to look into.
Kato.
Excuse me.
Hey Haru.
Sorry for taking some of your time.
Have a seat.
You're good friends with Kambe, aren't you?
What's this about?
The woman named Imura that he's interrogating now...
They said it was suspicions of reckless driving, but it looks a bit strange.
It's possible that she herself wasn't driving, and instead was under someone else's controls.
You're saying Kambe did it?
As you know, he has good connections with the higher-ups,
including the Superintendent General.
I was wondering how to deal with it.
Are you asking me to look into this?
How's your nephew doing?
Thanks to you, he's got a respectable job.
Oh, that's good to hear.
I'm really appreciative.
This is what I found.
What's this?
There were some brats who were arrested when they doped up and got reckless.
Their parents were in big corporations and legislation, so criminal charges were dropped.
Hey, Kambe.
Why did you pull in Imura?
For reckless driving.
What are you after? If you have a reason you're doing this, tell me.
I don't like how you do things,
but on the one point that you catch criminals, I have faith in you.
Don't stick your nose in. That's what they ordered you to do in the inquiry.
Depending on the situation, they might have you turn in your badge.
The lawyer will be here in two hours.
Can't you do something about it?
Don't ask for the impossible, Cho-san.
You're going to get a lot of retirement money really soon, okay?
That's not what this is about!
Have you already forgotten?
B-But you've done enough already.
I am never going to give up.
Hey.
What's wrong?
Well, Cho-san, please don't overdo it, okay?
I guess this wasn't the place.
Stop poking my nose into dangerous situations and retire all safe and sound, he says.
It's unnecessary patronizing.
I don't know what Kambe is thinking.
It doesn't seem like he's simply trying to expose Mizuo Future Technologies' evil deeds.
Something that shouldn't have been brought into Japan was brought in,
and Imura knows something about it.
Exposing that is justice. Am I wrong?
But we can't even interrogate.
Sorry to have taken so much of your time.
Give me a break already!
To do something like this without my lawyer--
Your lawyer has arrived.
I see, then...
Yes. You can go home now.
Follow Kato.
Understood.
Did you call for me?
Do you recognize this woman?
No, I don't know her.
If you're researching her, HEUSC can--
Try asking it.
HEUSC, tell me about the woman shown on the screen.
I cannot answer that.
You do not have that authorization.
Could it be, Lord Daisuke, you also were...
Yeah.
It's not often, but sometimes it denies me in this manner.
But I had assumed I simply did not have enough authorization.
When were you denied? Were there any patterns or tendencies?
I wonder. There have been too few cases to tell.
Huh? The lawyer isn't here yet?
Can you take a second to go ask?
Understood.
Please, take a seat.
Now, those sea grapes that were used in the jamming device...
That again?
You're illegally importing them from Poliador, aren't you?
The cat's out of the bag.
I've had enough of this already! I can't take this anymore!
About Akitoshi...
Looks like he's hanging out with a bad crowd.
If this gets out in the open, it'll probably be bad for both you and your child.
And you call yourself--
I've been a cop like this for 35 years.
What I want to hear are the ties between Mizuo Future Technologies and the Kambe family.
Looks like the charges have been dropped,
but if it gets out on the internet, I'm sure your higher-ups won't be able to ignore it.
All right. I'll tell you.
But, before that, please let me call my boss. I beg you.
She'll crack soon.
Cho-san, doing things like that...
Kato. When you're a detective, you sometimes have to play it dirty.
I can't accept that.
What was that?
Kato!
Damn it. Don't think you can get away.
Shall I drive?
No, I'm fine.
The battery...
Please get out!
Hey.
Looks like that time has come.
You did it, didn't you?
Director! What is the meaning of this?
Why is Cho-san going that far?
