SOCIAL WELFARE CENTRE

- I'm back. - Hello.

Write your name and the time in here, please.

- There. - Thanks.

Rika!

- This is it. - What? By myself?

Sorry, but there's no one else around.

Even so...

Whose case is it?

I can't reach him at all.

He took the key and left, and hasn't come back.

But I'm just a volunteer...

That's all right. You're used to this.

Mr Hirohashi? Mr Goto's looking for you.

Goto? OK.

Would you do it?

- Just look in on her. - But...

I'll buy you dinner.

Eh? Look, you don't have to...

TOKUNAGA RESIDENCE

Hello?

Hello?

I'm from the Welfare Centre...

Sorry to bother you...

Are you all right, my dear?

You're Sachie, right?

I'm hereto help out in place of Mr Takahashi.

My name's Rika Nishina.

Come on. Come here.

Sachie!

Who's that boy upstairs?

Sachie!

He was shut in a wardrobe!

You didn't say anything about a child.

Yes.

Yes, he's still upstairs.

Yes.

I told you, they aren't home yet!

Yes.

But...

Yes.

Yes, I understand.

Yes.

There's no one home right now. Please leave a message.

Hello ? It's Hitomi.

Hello? Kazumi, are you there?

How's mum getting along?

I'm a bit worried, so please give me a call.

What's your name?

Toshio.

Yeah? Your name's Toshio...

My name is...

I told her...

Sachie?

I told her.

I told Kazumi.

I told her again and again.

I told her again and again...

What's the matter, Sachie?

- I told her... - Why don't you lie down, OK?

Again and again, I told her.

Just the way you said to.

Please stop tormenting me.

Sachie...

KATSUYA

TOKUNAGA RESIDENCE

- Morning. - Morning.

Mum really sleeps in late these days.

That's because she's up all night.

- Eh? - Every single night.

I'm sure it's fine for someone who can sleep through anything.

Maybe it was the move.

I'll talk to the helper. We're paying for him, after all.

That won't help. Your mother's always nice with other people.

OK, OK. Try to get along, will you?

You'll be home early?

Your sister's coming.

You forgot!

Is it Friday already?

Get it together!

Hurry home.

OK. See you.

Oh, Mother! Just tell me if you want something.

Who's that? Who's there?

I'm home!

Is Hitomi here?

Kazumi?

Mum?

Mum, where's Kazumi?

Mum?

What's she been doing?

Kazumi?

Kazumi?

Are you here, Kazumi?

Kazumi?

Kazumi! Hey! Kazumi!

Kazumi!

Kazumi!

Hey, Kazumi!

What's wrong? What's happened?

Eh?

Hang on. I'll call an ambulance.

What are you doing? What are you doing here?

Kazumi...

Good evening!

Evening!

I'm here!

Kazumi?

Kazumi?

Hi, Mum. How are you?

Where's Kazumi?

Hang on, I'll start getting dinner ready.

Kazumi? Is that you?

Katsuya?

Don't scare me like that, brother!

Where's Kazumi?

Kazumi went out. Something came up.

She's not shopping? She'll be back soon, won't she?

I'm sorry, Hitomi. This isn't a very good time.

What's going on?

- Has something happened? - She had another man.

She deceived me.

That's not my child. That's not my child...

What are you talking about? Brother?

Look, just go home, OK?

Are you feeling all right?

I'm fine. Just leave me alone for a while.

HITOMI

There's no one home right now. Please leave a message.

Hello? It's Hitomi.

Hello? Kazumi, are you there?

How's mum getting along?

I'm a bit worried, so please give me a call.

KATSUYA TOKUNAGA CALLING

Hello, Katsuya? I just called your house.

Hello? Katsuya?

Look, this isn't funny.

Sorry. I just hung up.

Who's there?

- The 5th-floor ladies' room? - Yes.

Right, I'll go and take a look.

You wait here. Right?

Excuse me!

- Yes? - Hello? It's me.

Katsuya?

I'm outside the front of your building. What number are you?

702! Hurry, will you?

Katsuya!

...also a house bat, a pygmy Woodpecker,

wild birds not seen here before,

a blue-green snake...

...among 54 discoveries, including a 2. 5-meters discarded snakeskin...

TOYAMA

Hello?

Hello?

Missus?

Missus?

Rika?

Rika?

Rika! Rika!

Mr Nakagawa...

- Phone him. - Yes, sir.

Up there.

Rika...

Rika!

Are you OK?

Yeah. Sorry, Mariko.

You're missing school.

That's OK. I've got all the credits I need.

Anyway, what happened?

I don't really understand what happened myself.

Was that Hirohashi bugging you to do something again?

And you couldn't say no?

You're supposed to be the care-giver!

I'm glad you came, Mariko.

I'll go and buy something to drink.

So that was the first time you'd visited there?

Yes, the first time.

About the child who you said you saw there...

Have you found him?

No... not yet.

Toshio...

- He said his name was Toshio. - Toshio?

Ms Nishina, the Tokunagas don't have any children.

But... what about that photograph?

There was a family photograph in the house.

That wasn't the Tokunaga family.

- Then, who was it? - We're looking into that now.

Inspector...

Did something happen there?

Excuse me.

The families there before the Tokunagas all died or disappeared, too.

Is this all of them?

What about Katsuya Tokunaga's sister?

Still no contact with her.

A security guard at her workplace is dead, too.

Also...

...have a look at this.

A man named Takeo Saeki killed his wife Kayako there.

Later, he was found dead on the road by a neighbour.

Kayako Saeki, 28, housewife.

She and Takeo had a son.

"Toshio".

Kayak0's body was discovered...

...up there under the roof.

- Hi, Daddy! - Hi, lzumi. Where's mum?

- Gone ShOpping_ - Oh, yeah?

- She'll be angry if you don't get home. - It's OK. Come over here.

- What is it? - Come on!

- Quick! - What is it?

- Look at this. - What, did you draw those?

Yeah!

So, this is the Prince of Heaven.

That's the Princess.

And that's their baby.

Yeah? And who's this?

Mr Yuji Toyama? I'm lgarashi, from the Yahara Division.

Ow!

What is it?

You were in charge of the Saeki investigation.

I'd like to talk to you.

Izumi, you get on home.

I quit the force. Leave me alone, will you?

Two more people have died in the house.

You're the only one left who was involved in the case.

Izumi, what are you doing there?

Have you cleaned the bath? It's your turn today, you know.

- OK. - Get going.

Was this the boy who you saw at the Tokunaga house?

Yes.

Take a good look.

You're absolutely sure?

Yes, it was him. Have you found him?

No.

The boy went missing five years ago. He's never been found.

Even if he were alive somewhere, he'd be 11 years old.

SOCIAL WELFARE CENTRE

What the...?

Mr Nakagawa...

This is Mr Yuji Toyama. He was on that case.

Thank you.

My name's Nakagawa. Come in.

Hitomi Tokunaga. Her elder brother Katsuya lived in that house.

She went home, then disappeared.

Someone in her building saw her come home.

They've found Hirohashi's body.

- The man who found Rika is dead. - What?

Mr Toyama, would you excuse me just a minute, please?

Izumi, you're a chicken!

- What's that? - It's sake.

What's that doing here?

Saori, you Pig!

That's not sake.

- I'm leaving! - Wait! It's OK!

- Are you running out? - lzumi!

What am I going to do with her?

She's always like that.

Yeah, and I heard now she hangs out with Chiharu.

It's no good. He hasn't come home.

Where could he be?

Well? She's gone, you know.

- Can you believe that? - Ayano, check out the window.

She's there.

She's by the gate. It looks like she's thinking something.

Why's she so scared?

Maybe she's got ESP.

She didn't have to leave like that!

What was that?

- What's wrong? - |zumi's really gone.

What is it?

Mr Toyama... Mr Toyama!

Mr Nakagawa!

- Mr Toyama! - Please!

- Get a grip! - Calm down!

What happened?

IZUMI

- What's first lesson? - English, isn't it?

- With Mr Sekine! - Oh, no...

- His English is weird. - Totally weird!

It doesn't sound like any English I've heard.

Do you think foreigners understand him?

He probably can't even speak it properly.

Yeah, but he's teaching it to us!

MISSING

lzumi?

Izumi?

- What's up? - Nothing.

THREE FRIENDS DID NOT RETURN HOME AFTER A SCHOOL TRIP.

FRIENDS AND FAMILY ARE WORRIED.

- Isn't that lzumi? - That's not her!

- Did you find one? - Not yet.

See you later.

- Oh, sir? - What's up?

Toyama, what's up with you?

There's not a single photo of lzumi.

Why not?

That can't be. Did you look properly?

- There aren't any. - We've looked and looked!

Really?

OK, I'll check the negatives. Can you wait?

- Later. - How long do we have to wait?

Don't pull! You'll stretch my sweater.

- Within a week. - Why does it take a week?

I'm a busy man!

MEMORIES OF THE SCHOOL TRIP

A woman's body has been found in an empty house in Nerima district.

Rika Nishina, a 23-year-old social worker,

had been listed as missing.

No marks were found on the body.

Thank you.

Finally!

It's not my fault.

We're thinking of going to |zumi's.

OK... I'll come with you.

- Hey! - No, thanks, sir. Bye.

We'll bring them back tomorrow!

Talk to Toyama for me!

- Let's see! - No way!

- We'll see them with lzumi. Come on. - But I want to see them!

You're |zumi's friends?

Izumi?

It's Chiharu. And Miyuki's here.

We brought the photos.

Can we come in?

Isn't it a bit dark in here?

Don't!

Izumi?

What's wrong?

Izumi?

The three of them...

...keep looking in...

...at me.

"The three of them"?

Saori and the rest.

The night they disappeared, I was with them.

Then, why didn't you...?

I was scared!

Scared of what?

When we came back from the school trip...

...Saori said...

...that there was a haunted house near here.

Haunted house?

Where was it?

- I forget! - How could you forget?

- I wanted to forget! - lzumi, tell us what's going on.

Talk to us.

Even before we went inside...

...| felt something strange.

Izumi, do you have ESP or something?

- I don't have it... - It's not that!

You guys shouldn't go near it.

Saori and the others treated it as a joke, but I couldn't stay there.

I left, by myself.

I was scared, and I ran away.

That's why... they're coming for me!

Izumi, calm down! lzumi! lzumi!

Close the curtains! Close them!

Close them!

That's what my husband was like before he died.

He had all the windows closed tight.

Does lzumi know about that?

I never told her anything about it.

The photos...

What's that?

No!

Chiharu!

Who are you?

Dad?

I saw you at that house that time, you know.

KAYAKO

SOCIAL WELFARE CENTRE

Hello?

Oh, Mariko? It's been ages!

Yeah. What's up?

Oh, really? That must've been hard for you.

Tomorrow? Yeah, sounds good.

Yeah, all right.

OK, see you then.

Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr Saito.

I hear you're going to become a great-grandfather.

Mr Saito?

Thank you.

Rika!

Mariko!

How have you been? Hey, you've changed your hair.

- I had it cut. - It's cute!

- Are you free Sunday? - Sunday? Sure.

Really?

He gave me two tickets and said to take you.

Really?

What?

In Year 3, you liked Toyoshima, didn't you?

Huh?

It was written all over your face.

There's already one problem kid in my new class.

He hasn't come to school once. What do you think?

- And his parents? - That's the problem. No contact.

Well, there must be some kind of reason...

At least they could return my calls.

I want to finish my home visits.

Oh, yeah, home visits...

All the other teachers have finished theirs except me.

- Oh, yeah? - What?

You've turned into a real teacher.

How about you?

I wonder about that. I don't understand...

What is it?

I thought I felt...

Rika? Are you OK?

Come on, Rika... Rika!

Rika, what's wrong? Are you OK?

- Hello, Nishina speaking. - Hello, Rika?

Mariko? I'm so sorry about today.

You really scared me. Are you all right now?

Thanks for asking.

I'm sorry I ruined your day off.

No, it's fine.

- Where are you now? - Remember that kid I told you about?

I'm at his house now.

There's no one here but the boy. His parents haven't come home.

I've been here nearly an hour.

Mariko... where exactly are you?

Hello?

Hello, Rika?

Hello?

Hey, Rika!

Toshio?

Toshio?

Toshio?

Toshio?

Are you up here, Toshio?

Mariko!

Mariko...

Mariko?

Mariko?

Mariko!

Mariko!

Mariko!

No...

No!

No!

No!
