Would you please stop playing the piano?

Nakagawa-san?

What is all that?

You're Nakagawa Masaru-san, right?

What's your favorite song?

What?

Did you do it?

[06/08/2009] [Atelier] [I killed him.]

[I killed him.]

Probably.

Probably?

Who is that man?

Who is he?

Let me through!

Excuse me!

That's my younger brother!

Hey! You can't come back here.

- Let me through. - What are you people doing?

- Masaru! - Nee-san...

Just what did my brother do?

Brother?

He's a suspect in a murder.

Eh?

He's admitted it.

Admitted it?

There's no way that could've happened!

My brother has amnesia!

He can't remember anything!

Amnesia?

These bones..

They asked us to ID them.

A regular crime lab can do that.

Who could these belong to, I wonder.

I'll extract the DNA. You finish putting it together.

Yes, sir.

- What's this? [Yagi Hiroshi Piano Concert 2009]

Who did this?

Darn it.

I'll go now.

You have an amazing memory, Tsukumo-san.

Oh, no, no.

While at work, instead of using that memory for games...

...don't you think you should be using it for your research?

That's a great question.

It wasn't a question.

Sasa-san, it's not that I have a very good memory.

I was just using everyone else in place of notes.

What?

When people are trying to remember something new...

The information enters through the hippocampus and is saved in the prefrontal area.

Tsukumo-san!

However, those things that we call "memory" fade rapidly.

That's why when they found a card number that matched...

...they kept looking at it again and again so they wouldn't forget.

Each time, the information is reinforced.

Tsukumo-san!

I simply followed their gazes to find the correct card...

And when I thought, "this looks suspicious"...

...I'd pretend I was going to turn the card over...

...so I could observe everyone's expressions and confirm I was right.

Essentially, I was able to win because of everyone else.

I understand your method for winning at Memory.

However, how is that applicable to criminal investigations?

You still don't understand?

The brain can only hold new memories for a limited amount of time.

I'm asking how that has anything to do with your research!

I'm saying...

Everyone should carry something like a notebook with them at all times...

[Submit your research topic!]

I've written you a memo.

...as it seems you have not remembered a single thing I've said.

My younger brother...

...collapsed due to a brain hemorrhage 7 years ago.

They were able to save his life, but...

His brain was damaged.

He can remember what happened before the accident...

...but he can't remember anything new.

He'll forget within an hour.

If he's in that condition, why don't you live togeth--

I can't help it. He said he wanted to live alone.

But...

I go to see him everyday.

I do everything I can for him.

You know the victim, the lawyer Kinoshita Shouji-san, right?

Of course I do.

We were going to be married soon.

Your brother, did he...

I told him.

I'd write his name down every time they met.

I doubt he remembers, though.

Hey, Detective.

Could a boy like that really kill a person?

We confirmed that the blood on your brother's clothes belonged to the victim.

And the only fingerprints found on the murder weapon belong to him as well.

He also had this note in his pocket.

[Atelier] [I killed him.]

Really?

Is that so?

This note was posted in the atelier.

[Causing problems for Nee-chan]

At around 6:30 am this morning...

...in a quiet residential neighborhood in Ootaku Den'enchoufu...

...the body of Kinoshita Shouji was found.

The primary suspect, Nakagawa Masaru, was in the same room as the body...

...and was arrested on suspicion of murder.

He is currently under investigation.

If he genuinely cannot recall what happened, can he still be charged with a crime?

If he had true intent to kill at the time of the crime...

...he can be charged with murder.

But, it will be quite difficult to prove if he really intended to kill him or not.

Incidentally, what sort of youth was he before his affliction, Yagi-san?

You were his teacher once, weren't you?

He was normally very calm and pleasant.

He seemed to be holding on to a lot of strong emotions.

He was that type of person.

So you'd say he was very emotionally intense?

I'm that way too. You have to be, to play music.

He's so handsome...

- So you like that type of man? - Regarding this case...

I guess you could say "like"...

When you think of Yagi Hitoshi, you think of a world-class composer, right?

I might not look it, but I adore classical music...

It's not me.

It's not me, but...

My coworker... ummm...

He asked me to get your opinion on something for him.

What do you need?

Can a person with amnesia murder someone?

I mean... "would it possible." That what I was told to ask.

Amnesia, meaning...

Tanbara-san, are you the lead detective in the Nakagawa Masaru case?

N-no, I'm not.

No... My coworker asked...

Why would you go and say that?

Tanbara-san is trying his best to protect what little pride he has...

...by telling really bad lies...

...get a clue already.

I apologize.

Look... Killing someone isn't a simple thing to do.

Hatred is something that builds and builds until it explodes.

That's not to say crimes aren't committed in the heat of the moment, but...

But could a person who can't even remember meeting someone really commit murder?

I just don't think it's possible.

Sorry, could you move your hands? Sorry.

Awesome.

Whoa!

A brain!

Amnesia...

Could I take a look at the scene?

Um... about my visit today...

- Could you keep it secret from Hayashida? - Oh, of course.

Great timing. Tanbara-san is here too...

Stop, keep quiet.

8...

9...

10...

It looks like he wrote music every day.

And these are all notes...

Hey, Rinda-kun, you mentioned that Nakagawa Masaru-san...

...had a note in his pocket when he was arrested, right?

Yes.

There was a single note that said, "Atelier. I killed him."

Only that? Nothing else, like...

...a notebook he'd write things in?

No. We only found that note.

We didn't confiscate anything like that at the scene either...

That doesn't make sense.

Oh, this is from June 8th...

It's from the day that Kinoshita-san was murdered.

Sorry.

It looks like he wrote these notes in a panic...

Oh. It does.

Do Mi La Re...

I wonder if there's some special meaning to them?

Unusual things do happen sometimes, don't they?

I'm of the same opinion as Tanbara-san.

Huh?

Nakagawa Masaru isn't the perpetrator.

The perpetrator...

...is someone else.

It looks like Masaru-san really does have amnesia.

When people see something new, the hippocampus starts working.

After a little while, the information is sent here, to the cerebral neocortex...

...where it can be stored for a long period of time, but...

In Masaru-san's case...

This here...

The hippocampus itself, where new memories enter, is damaged...

...so he can't create new memories.

My name is Tsukumo.

It's written 9, 10, 9 in kanji numerals, and pronounced "Tsukumo."

What's wrong?

It looks like he didn't have a notebook.

What was I doing?

His name is written 9, 10, 9 in kanji numerals, and pronounced "Tsukumo."

I'm his assistant, Yuri.

Tsukumo-san...

Yuri-san...

And... well...

I'm Tanbara.

And this is Hayashida.

Tanbara-san...

- Hayashida-san... - He really doesn't remember, does he?

Um, Masaru-san...

You're being investigated on suspicion of murder. Do you understand that?

No.

You're suspected of killing this man.

But we think that the perpetrator might be someone else.

...but we also think that you might know something, Masaru-san.

Excuse me...

About these 4 music notes...

Do they have some sort of meaning?

It seems that you might have written them as soon as the incident happened...

I understand.

I understand, so please stop blaming yourself.

How did you know?

How'd you know that Masaru-san was blaming himself?

Intuition.

That's it?

I thought there might've been something else to it...

- You shouldn't look down on intuition. - You making fun of someone's gut feeling?

You two are getting along really well together on this case.

So?

Did you figure anything out, Sensei?

Yes.

For Masaru-san, his notes...

...are memories of what he did.

And his music...

...reflects his emotions, it's how he stores how he felt.

Basically, if you match the two together...

...they become like Masaru-san's journal.

I wasn't asking about that.

I was asking how all of that will shake out the real perpetrator.

Don't you think you're depending on me too much?

What was that?

It's probably impossible, but don't you think you should figure that out on your own?

If you don't worry about things, your brain starts to age.

Oh, but your brain is already pretty tired, isn't it Tanbara-san?

When will I be able to meet Nakagawa-san again?

You'll never meet with him again, you jerk.

It's the other way.

I knew that!

It's such a problem...

There were still a lot of things I wanted to look into the next time I saw Nakagawa-san...

You took that?

What?

Don't tell me you took all of the notes and music sheets with you?

They're heavy. You could've taken half...

I heard you took Nakagawa Masaru out of custody and investigated on your own.

That's not true.

Tanbara-san was with him the whole time we were investigating.

Tanbara-san has become a huge problem at Police HQ.

Even though he has evidence and a confession...

...he's unnecessarily complicated the investigation on a whim...

That's not true. Tanbara-san is trying to conduct a proper investigation.

Tsukumo-san!

To start with, IPS...

What is this?

To explain it simply...

Nakagawa Masaru-san's memories.

If we search through these, we should find the real perpetrator...

What do you think you're doing?

You took evidence without authorization!

Sasa-san!

Wait!

You shouldn't run in the hallways, Sasa-san.

Masaru-san always carried a notebook with him.

If something caught his interest, he'd write it down!

I didn't ask you about that!

You need to...

- But when he was arrested... - ...give them back!

...Masaru-san didn't have anything to write notes with on him!

He only had a piece of paper with, "Atelier. I killed him," written on it!

Where was his notebook?

Don't you find that odd?

Indeed...

Wasn't that just by coincidence?

It couldn't be coincidental.

Those notebooks are like a lifeline for Masaru-san!

That means that someone had to have taken it from him.

Essentially, the possibility that Masaru-san saw the killer is extremely high.

- I see... - Makes sense.

Be that as it may...

That is a job for the detectives!

I might've gone easy on you until now, but...

- Our mission here... - This is...

...research.

What?

We're researching investigative methods on suspects with amnesia...

...as well as establishing a neuroscientific approach...

...to determine if someone is trying to feign the symptoms.

In that case...

Be sure to submit a report on it.

If you aren't able to produce any results...

...then I believe we'll need to have a long talk about what your future here will be like.

Yes ma'am.

We'll definitely produce results.

What are we going to do, Tsukumo-san?

What should we start with...?

I was truly touched today.

For a lady like you to be so close...

Tsukumo-san...

Your spirit of determination is truly great.

For a lowly assistant, hardly better than a monkey...

...to audaciously declare the research theme on her own...

...and promise results on top it?

I can only compare it to the recklessness...

...of a child who can't even swim 25m saying, "I'll swim the Dover Strait!"

However...

Please be confident in yourself.

All the people who make history are like that.

Umm...

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying...

If there's anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to ask.

Don't tell me...

I have to write the report?

I didn't know you had that much ambition.

- That's not it! - I'm counting on you.

That's not it!

Hey...

I bet she'll be surprised!

What do you think you're doing? My ears are my life!

Huh? I can't hear anything anymore!

What do you think these are?

Nakagawa Masaru wrote this music at the time of the incident.

No matter how I look at it, only the last Do Mi La Re is scribbled.

That's true.

So, I was thinking it was possible that those 4 notes might have a different meaning.

For example...

A code, or a signal of some sort...

A code?

Would you look at it for me?

A spasm?

He loves codes, which is why he decided on this field.

But, we don't often encounter codes in our real life work.

Okay.

Tsukumo-chan...

Just leave it to me.

Did you just call me "-chan?"

The bugs are...ah!

Be quiet!

We shouldn't be doing this. They gave us a huge scolding earlier!

Then go back!

They'll be mad at me if I go back.

Tanbara-san!

Huh?

This is...

Just what did my brother do?

Masaru-san, are you alright? Ah!

It's only natural that he should take the fall!

Please research what happened 5 years ago on July 2nd.

Please research what happened 5 years ago on July 2nd.

That's strange.

The murderer...is someone else.

The real perpetrator is in here...

That's it!

Help yourself.

Thanks.

Oh, that looks a little dirty.

- Go get a new one. - Yes sir.

Your younger brother is probably...

...not the perpetrator.

Someone framed him.

I knew it.

I thought it had to have been something like that.

Have you ever seen this handkerchief before?

No.

Is that so?

The person this handkerchief belongs to framed your brother.

Actually...

...we used that cup just now to collect your fingerprints.

The fingerprints left on this handkerchief...

...are a match for yours.

Were you the one who did it?

Where was it?

It was on the ground near some bushes.

I see.

I thought I had messed up somewhere.

So you admit it?

I suppose...

Why did you kill Kinoshita-san?

He was your fiance, wasn't he?

He arbitrarily decided that he was in love with me.

And, since I had borrowed money from him, I had to get engaged to him.

So, in the end you got tired of him and killed him?

He just wouldn't quit talking!

Always going on that I was only after his money...

Even that day, he accused me of having a boyfriend.

So, you decided to put the blame on your brother, who didn't know any better?

Because...

...he'd be found not guilty, right?

And you call yourself human?

What do you know?

I took care of him day after day...

Like an idiot, I pay rent on that house...

Do you know how much I've gone through?

It's only natural that he should take the fall for me!

Nee-san...

Masaru...

Sorry. They caught me.

Do you have your notebook?

Umm...

First off...

This is the PIN for my bank account...

The card...

I'll give it to the detective later, so be sure to pick it up.

After that...

Talk to the lady next door about what to do.

This is her phone number.

Make sure to call her.

What else?

Sundries and groceries are delivered every week on Wednesdays...

You'll have to order them on your own from now on.

To order them, you...

The rest...

We'll be sure to follow up with him, so if you could leave at that...

Okay.

I'll be going away, but...

...you need to keep it together.

Going away?

I murdered someone. So, I'm going away.

I did it.

That's...

...what I did.

I just made you believe you did it.

I'm terrible, aren't I?

Just forget...

A sister like me...

Bye.

Take care.

Masaru...

[Nee-san killed someone.] [She's gone.]

Well, it turned out to be a pretty unbelievable story.

What's wrong? Your hair's a mess.

The Do Mi La Re...

Domirare?

The mystery of the notes left on the sheet music Nakagawa Masaru wrote...

It's not a code either...

I'm analyzing it right now by changing it to perfect pitch, but...

They solved the case.

The sister did it.

- What? - While you were hiding.

These things happen.

Huh? What are these, then?

You know, actually...

There was something else bothering me about this case.

What is that, Funaki-san?

Autopsy photos of Kinoshita.

When I realized there was something strange about them, I ordered copies.

You can't just do things like that!

Actually, me too...

No matter how sure you are that someone is the perpetrator...

...would you really overlook a blood-stained handkerchief?

You shouldn't be doing this!

Though, if we're discussing it, then I too...

Things have changed around here recently.

What has?

The atmosphere.

Ever since Tsukumo came.

We just do what we can.

That's true.

Did you figure anything out?

Every so often, there are days where there are notes but no music sheets.

Is there some reason why those specific days are missing?

Maybe he didn't have any sheet music paper.

On days he didn't have the right paper...

...he'd write it on the backs of fliers like this, with nothing on the back.

Then maybe he didn't have any blank fliers either?

There's no notes.

Five years ago, July 2nd.

There's music, but no notes.

Why is that one missing?

You must be the man of the hour at HQ having captured the real murderer.

That night, Nakagawa Jun had promised to meet...

...her brother and her fiance, Kinoshita-san, for dinner.

In order to pick up Masaru-kun, the two of them went to the atelier.

But, while they were there, Kinoshita-san...

...accused her of seeing other men. They got in an argument.

As a result, Nakagawa Jun picked up a knife that was in the room, and stabbed him.

Nakagawa Jun was panicked, and when she wiped the murder weapon with a handkerchief...

...Masaru-kun came back from a walk.

Nee-san...

Nakagawa Jun saw his state, and came up with a plan.

You might not remember, but...

You killed him.

But it'll be okay. I'll make it better.

So, Masaru-kun wrote it down in his notes.

According to Kinoshita's coworker...

...the two of them definitely argued a lot.

No matter how you look at it, she's the perpetrator.

But you don't believe that's the case, Tanbara-san?

Everything... It just feels like everything's coming together too neatly.

For example, the handkerchief used to wipe the murder weapon.

She says dropped it accidentally, but...

...would someone intent on covering up their crime make a mistake like that?

It's also strange that the handkerchief was missed during the initial investigation.

So you're saying that Nakagawa Jun is covering for someone?

If she's covering for anyone, it would be her brother.

But you don't think that he did it, either.

Are we overthinking this, Sensei?

Why do you feel that way, Tanbara-san?

All I can say...is my intuition.

Then, I believe you.

If it had been logic or something, well, that's easy to send off track.

However, a detective's intuition is different.

It's something that's only formed in the brain after years of experience.

You can't fool it easily.

This is the second time...

...our opinions matched.

No, it's not.

It's the third.

- The first time was at the atelier... - Let's organize our information.

We're pretty in sync...

If the real perpetrator is a third person...

...the perpetrator used Masaru-san's amnesia to try and place the blame on him.

Which means that the person has to be someone Masaru-san knows, of course.

But Nakagawa Masaru wouldn't remember if he knew them.

Tanbara-san...

Even if he didn't remember...

You're talking...about that?

The real perpetrator is in here...

We're gonna go through them with a fine-tooth comb.

[Yagi Hiroshi]

Come in...

This song is...

Since he got back, this is the only song he plays.

It's Ravel's "Pavane for a Dead Princess."

What's wrong?

I seem to remember...

The composer, Ravel...

...was in a car accident, and suffered memory damage.

I wonder if Masaru-san likes him too...

My name is Tsukumo.

It's written 9, 10, 9 in kanji numerals, and pronounced Tsukumo.

And this is my assistant, Yuri Kazune.

Do you know the reason why your sister is gone?

[June 11, 2009] [Nee-san killed someone.] [She's gone.]

Yes.

We're here today to bring your sister back.

We studied your sheet music and notes, but...

Most of the time, you had both for everyday...

...but every so often, one or the other would be missing.

Do you write music everyday?

You don't know? You don't know.

Then, um...

About this sheet music...

This is the only day we don't have a note for.

[July 2nd, 2004]

July 2, 2004...

Would you mind playing it for us?

Masaru-san, are you alright? Ah!

Masaru-san!

He's hyperventilating.

Ambulance!

Calm down.

Please calm down.

Masaru-san?

Are you looking for something?

Medicine?

What is it?

Piano Sonata #4, Reminiscence. Put it on!

Are you alright? Masaru-san?

Pla-Plast-? Huh?

Plastic bag...

...o-over his mouth?

Um... this song is...

The stars....

The stars are falling...

Stars?

Above the lake...

Maybe it's like a tranquilizer?

The stars... are falling...

Let me see that for a sec.

I'm going out for a bit.

What?

Tsukumo-san?

Please research what happened 5 years ago on July 2nd.

July 2nd?

I did instruct Masaru-kun a long time ago, but recently...

You haven't met with him?

Have a seat.

I met with him quite often right after the hemorrhage, but...

Masaru-kun steadily started distancing himself from me.

Distancing?

He did his best to keep up conversations with me by taking lots of notes...

But it didn't go very well.

It was probably very painful for him.

Excuse me, but on the day of the murder, where were you?

We just need to take care of the formalities.

I don't mind answering.

Let's see, that day...

Ah, I was working here all day.

Is there someone who can verify that?

There's no one.

When I'm concentrating on my work, I'm by myself the whole time.

Excuse me, but do you have any more questions?

I have to leave soon...

Well, what's your intuition telling you Tanbara-san?

We're going to find a link between him and Kinoshita Shouji.

Yes sir.

This is strange, isn't it?

It is strange.

What are you doing?

Oh, just something...

You can't find a match in missing persons?

We need to make a database that gives better results.

I knew it...

There's no mistaking it, is there?

What is that?

What sort of research are you doing, gentlemen?

What are you researching?

Uh... I'm researching how to improve crime scene photography techniques.

Developing a way to improve the N System's performance...

Constructing guidelines for profiling suspects who exhibit signs of amnesia...

Something like that.

I have nothing to do with this.

In that case...

Can I get a status report?

Your projects require feedback from the field, don't they?

Oh... Yes!

Yes.

Please contact Police HQ.

8000 yen?

Expensive!

- Hey, Brain guy, was it you? - Huh?

Don't play dumb!

You're the one you put this in my cell phone, aren't you?

I didn't.

Quit doing creepy stuff like that!

Um, would it be alright if I take this?

You came?

- Weren't you surprised by... - Shut up!

I'm sorry. Excuse me.

[August 20, 2006] [Went to lake with Nee-san.] [Boat. The stars are falling.]

The stars are falling...

...above the lake...

On July 2nd, 5 years ago, we have sheet music, but no notes.

Masaru-san, are you okay? Ah!

It looks like he wrote these notes in a panic...

Do Mi La Re...

Do Mi La Re...

Yo, Tsukumo-chan.

What a coincidence.

This isn't a coincidence, is it...

Are you alright?

I took it.

Why'd you invite a girl like her...?

I like how quiet she is...

You like quiet people?

- I listen to people all day long for work, so... - I see...

More importantly, did you figure out "Do Mi La Re?"

Didn't you hear what I just said?

Well... It seems that I couldn't figure out a woman's heart, or the "Do Mi La Re."

Seems?

It's all red...

Do Mi La Re...

Piano Sonata #2 in C Minor.

These are pictures from Kinoshita-san's autopsy.

These show how the blood settled in the body after death.

The next pictures show how the body was discovered at the scene.

If the body had been in this position the entire time...

...the blood should've settled in this manner.

However, the blood pooled only on the left side of the body.

I'm no expert at this but...

After he was murdered, I was thinking that the body was probably kept in this position.

You think he was hidden somewhere?

We also went to the atelier to investigate.

In the area surrounding the house, we found a footprint that was quite deep.

At first we thought that it might belong to someone just passing through the area.

However, there is something definitively strange about the footprint.

How was it strange?

The estimated weight of the person is 150 kg (330lbs).

The perpetrator is that big?

Based on the size of the footprint, it's hard to believe the person would be that big.

So, could it mean that the person was carrying something heavy?

That's correct.

Then, that means...

He was carrying Kinoshita-san's body?

That's right.

This means the scene of the murder wasn't the atelier.

After murdering Kinoshita-san, the perpetrator...

...put him the trunk of a car.

He drove to the atelier, took the body out of the trunk...

...and carried him inside.

So who could it have been?

All of this means that the perpetrator went to the atelier by car.

To get to the atelier...

...one must pass a N-System camera here or here to get there.

We've made a list of every car that passed these points between 7pm on the 8th...

...and 6am the next morning.

Please let us know if you see someone of interest.

Piano Sonata #5 in E flat major.

C minor...

E flat major...

I can't see!

Sorry...

That's it. The Do Mi La Re...

This case just got huge.

Nanba-san, please take a look at this.

Weren't there 3 perpetrators?

We're going to solve the case.

There's a bomb here!

Please help me.

It's probably multiple personality disorder.

This is going to get really complicated!

We'll find the evidence!

The murderer has a gun!

You've opened Pandora's box.

Pandora's box?

You are eternal.

It's over.

I don't need you to comfort me.

What is this?

Damn you!

Your memory made you into the suspect.

This is the last one.

I want to break up with you.

You're the real perpetrator, aren't you
