A boy in our neighboring school saw the slit-mouthed woman.

No kidding!

Where?

He was playing alone in a park near his school, when he saw. . .

a strange woman standing in front of him.

Was she taII with Iong hair?

Yes, and her mouth was covered with. . .

a white mask and she wore a Iong coat.

And then what?

But as the boy was about to run away. . .

DATA BOOK: THE SLIT-MOUTHED WOMAN

the woman suddenIy asked him in a strange voice, ''Am I pretty?''

Then she took off the white mask and. . .

reveaIed her mouth that was sIit up to her ears!

When you're caught, she takes you to her hideout. . .

and cuts your mouth with scissors.

The sIit-mouthed woman has become merciIess these days.

Stop taIking about such things.

Does it remind you of the oId days?

When I was in high schooI. . .

the same rumor spread aII over Japan.

Did you know?

The rumor first started right here in this town.

- ReaIIy? - Yeah, reaIIy.

And now the sIit-mouthed woman is back in town.

Yuki, wiII you do some shopping for me?

I don't want to.

They say the sIit-mouthed woman appears in the park at five.

Good morning.

Have you heard?

The sIit-mouthed woman disappeared with a boy yesterday.

- ReaIIy? - Yep.

But on TV, they said it's someone dressed Iike the sIit-mouthed woman.

But that's what they said.

Masatoshi.

Have you gathered information on the sIit-mouthed woman?

No, I haven't.

Look at her.

The sIit-mouthed woman!

They say her next victim is someone from schooI.

Then I must be the one.

But that wouId make someone happy.

Line up, the assembIy is about to begin.

You're at the front.

However, we must keep caIm.

It's okay. We've just arrived.

Say good bye to your teacher.

Did you quarrel with your mother, Mika?

If so, I couId heIp you make up with her.

- Ms. Yamashita. - Yes?

Do mothers disIike their chiIdren?

Some mothers might.

But I'm sure that's not the case with your mother.

Why?

J ust now, when you didn't Iook at her she seemed truIy sad.

That's because she Ioves you.

Did she do that?

I won't Iet that happen to you, never again.

Mother does hate me.

No, she doesn't. I know it.

She Ioves you, Mika.

Sometimes Iove can be so strong that peopIe get carried away and. . .

I hate my mother.

Don't say such a thing!

Mika!

Don't go.

PIease!

So, she was wearing a mask Iike that, right?

But her mouth--

WouId you come to the poIice station with us?

- Let go of mel - Mrs. Sasakil

Pull yourself together.

Calm down.

We shouId stay at home. The kidnapper might caII you.

Where is Mika? Is she safe?

My Mika.

Mika--

- Mrs. Sasaki! - Mrs. Sasaki!

Mrs. Sasaki.

Are you aIright?

An eIephant.

A panda.

This is Ono.

It's me. I know it's Iate.

It's you. Something the matter?

No, not reaIIy.

I just wanted to taIk to Ai. Is she aIready asIeep?

Yeah, she is.

I see.

Do you think she's stiII reIuctant to see me?

She says she doesn't want to see you.

I understand. Sorry.

Bye.

ls that so?

You Iike Daddy more than Mommy, don't you, Ai?

TeII me the truth.

I Iike Daddy. I hate Mommy because you hit me.

You'd better rest. We'II wake you if there's news.

But I can't sIeep.

Ever since I Iost my husband in an accident. . .

If I had been good to her. . .

Mika wouId have come straight home.

a series of kidnapping has occurred.

A search is underway for the two missing children.

The Kanagawa Police. . .

THE SUSPECT'S PROFILE

This is Shizukawa East Park where Fumiaki Ogawa was kidnapped.

He was abducted by someone disguised as the slit-mouthed woman.

Yesterday, a woman who looked like her. . .

was seen kidnapping Mika Sasaki.

What could be the reason for kidnapping children in a disguise?

What's the matter?

Did Mommy do it?

I've caught a coId.

Are you okay?

- I'II go buy some medicine. - AIright.

- Bye. - Bye.

The park where Fumiaki was kidnapped was seldom used. . .

and there were only two of his friends at the time.

The next day, Mika Sasaki was kidnapped.

She was abducted before the eyes of her teacher. . .

who had--

I have some fIiers of Mika.

And-- What's up--?

Come on in.

They want to pass them out, too.

We'd Iike to heIp.

SCHOOL CLOSED FOR THE DAY

It's onIy a temporary suspension.

PIease try and stay quiet during this period.

Ms. Yamashita.

CouId I . . . taIk to you privateIy?

Then, you've seen the woman's face?

That's right.

But what's that got to do with you?

What's the matter?

Excuse me.

Mr. Matsuzaki!

Who was that woman?

PIease get off.

I won't. Not unIess you teII me.

She is the kidnapper. We shouId notify the poIice.

That picture's 3 years oId.

Whenever a chiId is kidnapped. . .

I hear a woman's strange voice inside my head.

Can you beIieve that?

I don't know what's going on.

But I've just heard it again.

I'm heading towards it.

This is Tsugawa Town, an hour's drive from Shizukawa Town.

The children here are terrorized by the rumor of the slit-mouthed woman.

A friend told me that she's immortal, that she can't be killed.

My friend said that. . .

she saw the split-mouthed woman in a nearby park.

There's a house with a red roof somewhere. That's her hideout.

There are rumors going around about her hideout.

Who is it?

Masatoshil lt's Matsuzaki.

What is it, Mr. Matsuzaki?

Open the doorl

Don't!

Am I . . .

pretty?

Am I . . .

pretty?

Masatoshi.

Are you aIright?

I'm okay.

Thank God.

What's wrong?

Who is she?

KAZUKO YOSHIDA

Mommy's late.

I wonder what she's doing.

I wonder what.

You'II find the poIice station around the corner.

Okay.

Ms. Yamashita.

I'm going to the dead Iady's house to Iook for Mika.

WiII you come?

Mr. Matsuzaki.

Is the sIit-mouthed woman gone for good?

I don't know.

Ms. Yamashita, this may come in handy.

Thanks.

Where couId she be?

Are you Mrs. Yoshida's--?

Mommy's not home.

She'II be home soon. PIease come back Iater.

They say their father wiII be back by evening.

I've kiIIed their mother.

The younger girI was about the same age as my daughter.

My daughter's with my ex-husband. I got divorced Iast year.

She Iikes him more, so--

I've never toId anyone about this, but I want you to know.

I just saw her with my own eyes and I know for sure.

Her name is Taeko Matsuzaki.

She's. . .

my mother.

When my brothers and l were small. . .

we used to be severely beaten by our mother.

Everyday was a nightmare.

Before long, my brother and sister were gone.

So was my mother.

They all disappeared.

Soon after that, the sIit-mouthed woman's rumor started.

A taII woman with Iong hair, wearing a mask.

When I first heard this, I immediateIy thought of my mother.

By that time, I'd been sent to a foster home. . .

but I was aIways afraid to go outside.

And after aII these years, she's come back again.

The woman I saw just now was definiteIy. . .

my mother.

That Iady must've been possessed by her.

So there may be more victims?

Am l. . .

pretty?

I have to go.

Take me with you.

PeopIe are afraid to pIay in the park. Let's go find a crowd.

Okay.

Let's hurry.

Right.

Are you aIright?

It'II pass.

Are you sure the voice came from here?

I thought so but. . .

I can't hear it anymore.

Wait, I hear it distantIy.

From where?

I can't figure out which direction.

Let's see if we can find the pIace as we drive aIong.

Right.

Mika?

PIease, don't hurt me!

You're Mom, aren't you?

Stop.

U ntie me!

Off we go.

- Did you enjoy pIaying with Grandpa? - Yep.

I'm gIad you did.

- A IittIe tired, huh? - Yep.

Grandpa, what's that?

Don't Iook!

The body found was that of a boy, right?

Mika is safe, isn't she?

So far.

We're searching the area thoroughIy.

I see.

Can I go outside to breath fresh air?

Yes. But don't go too far.

I won't.

Don't worry. I'm sure Mika wiII come back.

But the boy died.

Don't say that.

Mika.

Where are you?

Mika?

Mika, come out.

- Mika? - Mika.

- Mika? Where are you? - Mika?

No--

This can't be--!

Natsuki! Natsuki!

Why won't you talk?

You know this is very important, don't you?

Mika's Iife is in danger.

What did you see?

Masatoshi, speak.

AIright. I'II teII you everything I know.

Searching the body of the missing boy, Fumiaki Ogawa. . .

a 1 0-year-old girl, Natsuki Tamura was found in the same town. . .

sitting in a park with a severe cut on her face.

She's in critical condition.

Isn't Natsuki a girI from your cIass?

Police are looking for a connection between this incident. . .

and the murder of the housewife--

This is bad.

INSPECTION

Stay cooI.

- Good evening. - HeIIo.

Your driver's Iicense, pIease.

- Thank you. - No probIem.

- Excuse me. - Yes?

We teach at Shizukawa EIementary.

How's the girI found in the park?

Her condition is now stabIe.

Good.

Any new information on Mika Sasaki?

There's nothing to teII at the moment.

It is gossipy and unreIiabIe.

DATA BOOK: THE SLIT-MOUTHED WOMAN

''She appears in the park near Higashi EIementary.

''The next victim is a girI from Shizukawa.

It's impossibIe to kiII the sIit-mouthed woman. ''

This is aII true.

I know.

Is there anything that wouId Iead us to Mika?

How's this?

''The sIit-mouthed woman hides chiIdren in a house with a red roof. ''

A red roof. . .

That's hard to narrow down.

It couId be--

The house I used to Iive in when I was a chiId.

Did it have a red roof?

Mika is probably in the slit-mouthed woman's hideout.

You shouId Iisten to the rumors.

If we do this carefuIIy, we might get more information on her whereabouts.

But there are thousands of houses with red roofs.

Is anybody home?

HeIIo?

May I speak with you?

PIease.

What do you want?

CouId I have a word with you?

I'm the mother of this missing chiId.

I was wondering if you knew something.

Yes.

WouId you pIease teII me anything you know?

Any rumor of the sIit-mouthed woman?

I know! I've heard about her hideout.

- Hey! - It's okay.

The sIit-mouthed woman's hideout, right?

Yes, a deserted house with a red roof.

HIDEOUT, RED ROOF, DESERTED HOUSE

On top of ChiIdbeck HiII.

The sight of her was horrifying.

So l covered her with a coat and a mask. . .
