Original subtitles

My name is Yamada Naoko.

With a great magician as my father,

Shodo Calligraphy School Owner as my mother,

I am a very popular magician.

And him...

His name is Ueda Jiro. He is a physicist at Nippon Kagi Dai.

He is truly insensible.

He is just huge. And he tricked me into this.

I stood up for a showdown with Kirishima Sumiko, aka Big Mother, who has performed fake miracles.

Mother!

I worry about

Small Breasts.

Currently 2 losses in a row.

We successfully persuaded, Miwako-san, who'd shown adoration to Kirishima Sumiko. We escaped from Mother's Fountain.

However,...

There's no gas.

What?

The person who had sheltered us is...

I hold grudge against Mother's Fountain.

Where is your son right now?

He died soon after he came back home.

Aoki-san was also a victim who had lost his son due to the curse of Big Mother.

To protect Miwako-san from the fake Supernatural Manifestation of Mother's Fountain

We maintained a sleepless vigil during

The following morning...

Miwako-san, Good morning.

You forced her to die.

What have you done to her?

They killed Miwako-san.

But how?

But how?

I, Yamada Naoko, was at that time...

TRICK Episode 03 Haha No Izumi Conclusion

At that time, a sudden drowsiness fell on me.

Nobody but Miwako-san and I slept.

Hey, juggler, what are you doing?

" Kindaichi Kousuke or Hajime. In this case, I bet he is referring to Hajime", the Young Kindaichi.

You pretend to be Kindaichi?

Have some Kiji Jiru and you feel better.

This is Mazui. Mazui=Yucky

Mother...

National Bird... wasn't it Toki? "Japanese Crested Ibis"

No. It's Kiji (Pheasant)

kiji

kiji, it is.

Don't be so downhearted.

It's not your fault.

What's the meaning of this?

You are an accomplice.

You staged to help us,

You helped them to kill Miwako-san.

What's all the commotion?

No Use Pretending!

I've already found it.

You have a Big Mother's Portrait Picture.

That belongs to my son. I just left it there.

Why doubt over a Portrait Picture?

That's not all.

Last night, Miwako-san and I fell into sleep abruptly.

But Ueda-san didn't get drowsiness.

Ueda-san pretended to be a vegetarian so he did not eat Kiji Jiru.

So you suspect I drugged Kiji Jiru?

Yes.

Listen. Suppose I am an accomplice like you say...

But she was in the room with you.

Nobody came into the room.

This fact is verified by the professor over there.

Right?!

Without coming into the room, you could kill Miwako-san.

Hey, you! Stop right there!

Running away?

Stay right here!

Running away?

I saw through your diabolical plot. Through and through!!

That's interesting.

Let me hear it.

How could we kill Oomori Miwako?

Ueda-san,

Ueda-san, you said there was no one who had gone into the room, didn't you?

In opposite, wasn't there someone who came out of the room?

Miwako-san, perhaps?

Yeah.

She woke up and came out of the room.

And what did she do after that?

What's up?

I got thirsty.

Didn't she drink water from the faucet?

Poison was set in the water faucet.

The culprit is Water Bureau, then?

Because of Kiji Jiru, Aoki-san offered,

Miwako-san and I had gone to sleep.

With the help of Aoki-san, you came here.

You took out the faucet in the garden.

And poured poison down from there.

Poison spreaded around the water pipe.

The pipes between the garden faucet and the kitchen are connected.

It's the principle of Maximum Entropy, then.

What is it?

"Detective Ishizuka is thinking about "Intro" Quiz. Listen to the intro and then name the artist and the title."

"Entro" & "P" key button should be pushed, right?

That's right. Listen to "Entro" & answer. Entro Quiz P, right, Professor.

Science cannot explain everything.

Miwako-san drank water and died.

You placed a Pill Bottle and a Suicide Note during the turmoil of her death.

I see.

Poison shall be drained away by running water in the garden, leaving no proof at all.

What if Oomori Miwako did not drink water?

What if this one or Ueda-san drank instead of Oomori?

Instead of Miwako-san, if I died,

You could claim the curse fell on me.

Ueda-san's case is much easier, as he was cursed already. He should deserve to die.

What's your opinion, detective?

How about "suicide" this time?

That's not good for us.

How about you, two... Will you come to Mother's Fountain again?

There, why don't we discuss this matter?

But yet...

It might make this matter complicated.

What will you do?

Do you wish to run away from us?

I understand. Shall we go then?

Kids are playing 'Bettan'. It's a thick piece of cardboard with a picture printed on its face. You aim at flipping the opponent's cards.

Hey! What's up?

Seta!

Sensei isn't here.

Show respect to adults.

Fine! I won't vote for you.

I'm sorry.

Higuma bear, is only found in Hokkaido. Seta apparently has no psychic power to read Death warning sign.

Japan's No 1 Evening Twilight HIGUMA

Higuma?

You must realize that you forced one human being to death.

And now you pass the responsibility to us.

We just want to reveal the truth.

No proof of anything...

You are treating us like criminals in Tyrant's Court.

If you intend to accuse me,

Be prepared for the same.

Prepared for what?

How about your index finger?

Mother prohibits gambling.

Shut up!

You are a magician, aren't you?

Give me your index finger that'll be the life line as a magician.

You should wait, Mother.

Her mother says No.

Neither does My mother on Gambling.

Shut up!!

I can read your mind.

From now on, I will prove it to you.

In your mind...

Imagine 2 digit number.

Any number will do.

After you decide the number,

Write it on the paper. Hide it from me, of course.

I will tell you what number you selected.

If I lost, I shall lose my dignity among these Executive Directors.

Mother's Fountain will collapse.

However,

If I win,

I would like to receive your right index finger for my reward.

Do you accept my challenge?

Don't tell me you accept her challenge.

Sure.

Idiot! Stop it.

What'll you say to your mother?

What if this mother is real?

She isn't real.

Then, write it on that paper.

Hide it from me.

If you want to check the room, please do so. There is no mirror nor concealed camera.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

From the Two Digit Number you wrote, tell me the First Digit.

It's 4.

4

Now the 2nd digit.

It's 7

There is really...

a Paranormalist...

Darling!

Darling!

Darling!

Protect Naoko...

7

Bull's Eye !

You keep your promise, you hear?

I shall receive your index finger.

We shall receive it.

They say they shall receive it.

They shall receive it...

Wait!

Wait!

Wait!

Where did you go?

Stop right there!

Wait!

I know you are strong.

Why do you run away if you are strong?

If you understood her trick,

You could've told her on the spot.

What do you say now! I beat you!

In reality, you have no idea, don't you?

There is one thing that bugged me.

It's what Big Mother said before you write the number.

Do you remember?

If you want to check the room, please do so.

There is no mirror nor concealed cameras.

Big Mother wanted you to check the room.

For what reasons?

I don't know.

But it bugged me.

There must be some tricks.

There you are...

All together!

You could have run away...

Anii...

If these two were killed,

it shall be a big problem to us police.

But how do we rescue them?

Not possible only by me.

Do you want to try your luck alone?

Why me only?

Anii, why don't you call help from the headquarters?

Nagashi-Somen Thin, white noodles are put in water flowing along a long sink, from which diners catch the noodles with their chopsticks and dip them in a cool broth before eating them.

After we call help, and we dash into the site.

What will happen if they are having a Hand Roll Sushi Party or Nagashi Somen Festival or something?

I lose my face.

Hey!

What's that windmill for?

Dutch mill?

Do they wear wooden shoes?

Is there a boy at the river bank?

They use water pumping windmill. That's all.

And they sell bottled water.

The windmill is considered to be the Holy Fountain.

I understand.

Thus, Mother's Fountain.

Little by little, the truth of this cult has been revealed by us.

No. They are all written in this pamphlet.

Shall we call it a day?

Anii...

What shall we do about those two?

Hey, when there is no wind, what do they do about it?

Possibly they use electricity.

Then, why not use electricity from the beginning?!

Let's have lunch.

Anii...

We are now preparing Dan-Shi-Shiki.

Well...

Dan as in "Cutting or Chopping", Shi as in " finger" and Shiki as in Ceremony.

Your wrong doings... We don't wash them this time.

Wait!

Will you spare her life?

I forced her to bring here along.

If you must,

I will give you my life.

Ueda-san...

That's absolutely OK with us.

You have your own rules once decided...

No, not at all. Fine with us.

Dan-Tou-Shiki (Chopping/Head/Ceremony) then?

Where did we keep a guillotine machine?

Ueda-san...

Why?

In the eyes of society, I had to do it.

What does "show off" pay back to you from the bad guys?

They won't even think your death was a loss to the society.

Are you crying now?

Of course not!

You are crying from every angle.

I never cried in my whole life. Not even once.

"Ueda-shan never dies." This line is an obvious copy from "101th Proposal".

Listen.

Ueda-shan never dies.

It's stupid to give up hope.

Don't forget you graduated from Super A Class University.

I graduated from undergraduate institutions.

Yes, undergraduate, of course.

I want you to know one thing before I die.

Yes?

Mine is not so big.

What?

You might have a big misunderstanding about it.

Ueda-san...

You have a big one...

Not true, I said.

I am a very talented Physicist.

You are a very talented Physicist with a big penis.

I am a very talented Physicist.

I want to prove it to you. What should I do?

Think of the ways we can escape from here.

There is one sure fire way.

The Art Of Mental Calculation! An-zan

4 digits (four) fundamental rules of arithmetic, I can answer it instantly.

Give me a question.

5643x3289=

18,559,827

Surprised?

I have no idea if the answer is correct or not.

Is it fun to play mental calculation?

Are you mocking me?

You shall get a punishment.

You already got one.

I don't think so.

You!

Hey!

Yamada Naoko-san...

Knowledge will make it possible to solve entrance exams, but not possible to untie ropes.

If knotted rope has even numbers, you musn't pull it.

It's based upon Topology Theorem.

You've been tied with hands this way.

If you had done this way, you secured to gain the necessary slack for a starter to escape.

That's topology, too.

But the lowest level, of course.

So even numbered knotted rope... You musn't pull.

OK now.

You untied?

No, I cut it.

Ueda-san

You think I have been a drag.

Only if I didn't say such a thing...

You could've escaped from here sooner.

What's all the commotion!?

I can't escape leaving you here.

Are you sure?

Yes, true.

What?

I told you once. Ueda-san, when you are lying, Your pupils grow wide slightly.

By any chance, you don't remember what you told me last night?

Ueda-san

When you lie, your fingers move...

Last night, did I say something strange?

Not really...

If you don't remember, that's OK.

What do you say? Am I lying now?

You must say something.

I am an American.

Lie

I am from Inadaira, Musahi Murayama City, Tokyo.

Lie

I tried to save Yamada Naoko-san truthfully.

Lie

Seems not working...

Getting confused.

That's correct.

You thought I analyze your finger position?

Wrong Guess

You, be quiet.

Ueda!

Kirishima Sumiko asked you to imagine one 2 Digit Number.

How did you get the number?

How?

You tried to pick unintentional random number.

The number that has no rules nor relations to anything.

That's right.

The deeper you think about random numbers,

The more numbers one eliminates from his selection.

For example, 33 or 55.

“ZOROME” or a sequence of the same number shall not be selected.

And one more thing.

One does not pick the number one had seen somewhere.

Big Mother lead you to check this room.

When you look around, there are many scrolls with numbers.

Whether you like or not, you will see these numbers.

Without knowing it,

Certain numbers has been added to your elimination lists.

As a result, you shall eliminate those numbers.

Now the numbers you can pick is limited.

The most probable numbers you pick will be 4 and 7.

She picked two plates. She revealed the number based upon your answer.

"7" "4"

Thus, it does not matter which number is the first number or the second number now.

With this, probability ratio doubled.

This is the trick Big Mother had predicted your number.

I doubt it.

eh?

It's true that I might pick 4 and 7.

But it's not perfect.

Do you really think that Big Mother took that risk?

I'm positively sure.

This is the right answer.

In the name of Pierre de Fermat...

Somebody is coming.

I'm going to meet Big Mother now.

I'll challenge her with the trick I discovered.

If I don't come back after 30 minutes,

You must...

I'll escape alone. Go to the police.

I'll escape alone. Go to the police.

I'll escape alone. Go to the police.

Why on earth are you doing here?

I wish to meet Big Mother.

I discovered how she had done her Mind Reading.

Sure, I can take you...

Can't you make up your mind? You escaped and come back and demand to meet her and escaped...

You must decide what you really want.

Damn huge guy!!

I am not Ueda Jiro.

I am Ueda Jiro.

Aren't you Ueda-san?

Silence!

I am an American.

I am not an American.

Watch Ueda's nose!

I see.

Now I understand.

I hate Shaku Yumiko.

I love Shaku Yumiko.

Nose, it is.

When I lie, my nose moves.

Did I squash your balls?

No problem.

What?

Where are we going?

This is a bath room.

Are you sure Big Mother is here?

You should escape here alone.

Does it mean I must swallow Big Mother's tricks?

Big Mother is a genuine Paranormalist.

Everyone is deceived by her cheap tricks.

It's true that any miracles can be explained by magic tricks.

But what do you get from those explanations?

There's no proof that Big Mother had used tricks.

Is that the reason why you let your son and Miwako-san died?

Unless otherwise, I was killed already.

This place is much more horrifying and scary place than you imagined.

So you know something, don't you?

What's Big Mother up to?

Aoki-san, tell me.

Ueda-san is going to die soon.

And he shall be killed by you.

By me?

Why?

Aoki-san!

I've been waiting for you.

Where is Ueda-san?

Why did you kill Aoki-san?

Aoki tried to betray us.

God punished him.

Everyone why are you keeping your mouth shut?

Why don't you do anything about her?

Look!

Ueda-san!

Is this trick, too?

This is a mirror trick.

The one I am watching is a reflection of Ueda-san on the mirror.

It's not real Ueda-san.

It's a 100 year old magic trick.

If you claim it is a magic trick,

Shoot him with this gun.

Ho-Sui-Myo!

Don't shoot me.

Don't shoot me.

Shoot him!

Shoot him if it's a trick.

This is not a magic.

Ho-Sui-Myo...

Ho-Sui-Myo...

Are you awake?

Seta-kun...

I worried about you.

You had a high fever.

A villager found you lying unconscious at the small shrine.

What have you been doing there?

Ho-Sui-Myo!

Shoot him!

This is not a magic.

Ueda-san, someone is behind you. Right?

No!

This is real.

Don't shoot me.

He shall be killed by you.

Don't shoot!

Stop it. Don't shoot!

Stop it!

Look. It was just a mirror magic.

You haven't seen any miracles at all.

Executive Directors, go back to your rooms.

Assembly adjourned.

Wait!

Hey!

This is the trick of Levitation.

It's wrong.

Damn you!!

Stop it, Tsumura!

Our time has run out.

Let's end it here.

Big Mother, what are you saying?

You cared only about your profit. You didn't even care about the followers...

Hands off!

Don't listen to her.

I noticed just right now.

I've been deceived by her.

Tsumura!

Wash off our problems.

Wash off our lives.

Call Doctor!

Yes!

Why?

Why did you do that?

There is one thing you are wrong.

When I said I could read people's minds...

It is true...

In this world,...

There is really a special people who possesses such powers.

Long before this Mother's Fountain was established...

I lost everything... I even failed in killing myself.

But when I came to senses,

I realized a miraculous power within me.

There is no need to worry. Your problems have been vanished.

I could read various people's minds through my hand.

Thank you very much.

One day Tsumura came to visit me...

Your power shouldn't be exercised in this small scale...

There are many more people who need help.

Around this place was ...

a property of Aoki...

Tsumura persuaded Aoki...

He built a big windmill.

He made me a Paranormalist called Big Mother.

Why did you follow him?

I was just stupid.

Total number of people I could save with my small hand is limited.

Of course, I can't save such a big number of people, either.

I can read your memory...

I can see the dark side of your mind.

The little girl is standing by the lake.

On the shore... your father and mother...

Father!

Darling!

Father!

Darling!

Darling!

Darling!

Darling!

Darling!

Darling, don't die...

You have seen...

what had happened there...

Darling!

Darling!

Don't die!

Darling!

Master!

Master!

Master!

Your father was...

killed...

by real...

powerful...

Paranormalist.

Your father challenged a showdown and was killed by this person.

Where is this person now?

Sooner or later, this person will show up in front of you.

You shall be killed by him.

The crimes they committed

shall be revealed soon.

Everyone,

Let's leave here.

Wake up everyone.

There was no real Big Mother.

She was just a fake illusion they created.

What's your problem?

Professor! What a marvelous work!

Our lab checked the water pipe and discovered a trace of poison.

The principle of maximum entropy. Victory was with the Physics.

Do you think you can justify your act?

Look. Nothing changed.

Without Big Mother, what do you think they have to rely on?

Life with no hope nor relief, that's what they must face without a savior.

Who has actually tried to save them?

You?

or Us?

Walk!

Bic's Mother is dead!

It's BIG. BIG!

Mother's Fountain lives forever!

I'll be back soon.

Pump up water as usual.

You!

Life is like...

Ueda-san...

I wonder if there is a real Paranormalist.

You worry about such a thing.

I dismiss whatever she said as sour grapes.

It must be from Naoko.

I'll answer.

Mother, you shouldn't overdo.

If it's from Naoko,

Tell her I am fine.

I can't let her worry.

I know all about it.

Hello?

Hi, Naoko!

Your Mom?

Fine!

Fine!

Nothing.

Fine as usual.

You know what?

I shall run the election by assuming my father's territory.

Hello!

Hello!!

Followers must not use Phones.

My mother seems to be OK.

Mother...

You look a lot like Naoko-chan, don't you?

Is that right?

I've been wondering about it for long time...

There is a weird tie between you and Naoko.

When you are grouchy, Naoko is also grouchy.

When you caught a cold, so did Naoko.

When you got injured, so did Naoko.

What are you saying? It's not possible, is it?

Are you sure?

In a way...

If you live together, you might catch cold together.

You aren't living together now.

Come to think of it,

Naoko was talking with nasal voice.

ehe he he he!!

Excuse me?

I need a lift!!

No worry.

I can take you back home by my car.

All the way to Tokyo.

OK?

Are you aware that we have no gas?

Yamada!

Key... key...

eh?

Where am I?

Your home

Eh?

You carried me from Aoki-san's house all the way here?

What are you saying?

On our way from station, you slept.

When I realized how walking makes my brain active,

I remember now.

You are right. I'm sorry.

I was bit heavy, wasn't I?

No, not at all.

Mt. Everest is the highest mountain on the earth. It rises 8,850 meters above the sea, on the border between Nepal and China. Mt. Everest has three names: In the Nepali language it is called Sagarmatha,and in Tibetan it is called Chomolangma (Goddess Mother of the Snows).

When I was a student, I climbed up to Chomolangma with 30kg-backpack.

eh?

Anyway,

You noticed my sign...

It was fortunate.

Sign?

you know...

When I was lifted by wire and forced to act through,

I moved my nose vigorously to tell you that the setting was staged.

What are you saying?

No Need To Pretend.

Then, how did you know that was a reflection on the mirror?

Your wrist watch on your left arm was flopped.

Ueda-san, you can never lie to me in your whole life.

That's fine. I won't see you again, anyway.

I won't see fake Paranormal Phenomena nor your cheap magic.

This is the end.

Yes.

See you.

You'd better forget about Small Breasts.

It's a small matter compared to your major problems with having a big penis.

Idiot!

Case settled...

Shifted a bit...

There is really ...

a powerful Paranormalist.

You shall be...

killed by him.
