Who on earth... are you?

Nishinosono Moe,
a third year student of Jinnan University

and Saikawa Sohei,
an Associate Professor.

Isn't that the place where they have
a low-temperature laboratory?

Moe and Saikawa came to visit a low-temperature
laboratory at the Polar Research Center

and an incident occurred while
everyone was supposed to be watching.

Two grad students had been killed
in a completely locked-room.

This locked-room doesn't give
the culprit any advantages.

- It's an unnecessary locked-room.
- Unnecessary locked-room...

Moe looked for the trace of Masuda Jun,
someone who disappeared two years earlier

but his mummified body
was discovered instead.

In order to search for Masuda's computer,
the remaining key evidence

Moe snuck into the Polar Research Center,
but was attacked by someone instead.

Even though Moe was closing in
on the truth

she ended up getting trapped inside the laboratory,
where the temperature was at -20 degrees Celsius.

Professor Saikawa...

[The Polar Research Cent--]

- What's the matter?
- Bring me the keys!

Um... yes, sir!

Nishinosono-kun?

[Nishinosono Shosuke - Chief of the
Kanagawa Prefectural Police, Moe's uncle]

It's been a while, Professor Saikawa.

I'm sorry for not keeping in touch.

How's Moe?

She hasn't regained consciousness yet.

Why was she attacked?

She was investigating the case.

There must have been someone
who wasn't happy about it.

It was careless of me.

I was aware that Moe was getting intel
from the police, but overlooked it.

Because of what happened in
that accident four years ago

I would like to grant her wishes
as often as I can.

But I never thought she would be
obsessed with this case so badly.

It's my fault for not thinking
to that extent.

No, it was because
I didn't persuade her seriously.

This wouldn't have happened...
if I stopped her properly.

When Moe was a child, she would often
perform magic tricks at the home party.

Left alone, surrounded by adults

even my brother, who was the chancellor of Jinnan
University, couldn't catch the trick of her magic.

But one day, someone who easily
saw through it, appeared before her.

You also have drawings in the
back of the cards, don't you?

How did you figure it out?

It was you, Professor Saikawa,
a university student at the time.

Amazing!

Moe told me later that

it was her first time meeting an adult,
who was smarter than herself.

I think...
Moe still wants to be recognized by you.

Even more so, since she lost her parents
in that accident.

Doctor, how's Moe?

She just regained consciousness.

Her memory seems to be clear, so there
shouldn't be any permanent damage to her brain.

May I see Moe?

Family members only,
and if you can keep it brief.

This way.

[Kita Hokuto - Associate Professor of Jinnan
University, Dept. of Civil Engineering]

I finally understand why you never had
any girlfriends all this time.

Huh?

Never mind.

I'm happy for you.

Professor Saikawa.

Yeah?

I'm sorry.

Yes, indeed.

It's not the job of the instructor
to save the student's life.

Didn't I have a USB memory stick?
In my pocket?

No, it wasn't there.

Really?

I assume that the person
who attacked you took it.

Masuda-kun's computer was also destroyed,
I heard.

On Masuda-san's computer, there was a folder
named 'shika' in the Roman alphabet.

It was empty,
but I copied all the other folders--

You... already know who the culprit is.

What makes you think so?

All the information is laid out before us.

You should have reached the answer by now.

You're being nice to me today.

Who do you think the culprit is?

The same person as you think.

I'm not thinking about anything at all and
to be honest, I'm really fed up with this case.

That's a lie.

No... Actually, you must have known
the answer from the very beginning.

Why don't you tell me the truth?

Because the truth
is beyond my comprehension.

Beyond your comprehension?

It scares me to think about
the culprit's state of mind.

It's really something unique.

And thinking about it
gets me confused again.

I suppose it's still insufficient.

Can you please go and confirm it?

In place of me.

Please.

Professor Saikawa.

Thank you for saving my life yesterday.

I'm glad you are OK.

[Jinnan University]
[The Polar Research Center]

Ms. Ichinose, you're here so early.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

[Ichinose Rika - Research Associate]
I thought you were in Kyusyu on business.

I arrived at Haneda this morning,
and came straight here from the airport.

Here's a souvenir for you.

Thank you very much as always.

By the way,
something terrible happened last night.

Excuse me?

The daughter of the former chancellor was
almost killed in the low-temperature laboratory.

Professor Kikuma.

Professor Kikuma!

[Kikuma Kyosuke - Professor of Jinnan
University, Dept. of Civil Engineering]

You found his body first.
[Ukai Daisuke, Katagiri Masato - Detectives]

Yes.

What kind of person
was Professor Kikuma?

He was a wonderful teacher.

I've respected him for a long time.

What's up with this research center?

It is insane to have four dead bodies in
the same place in a week, don't you think?

I agree.

Detective Ukai.

What was the cause
of Professor Kikuma's death?

Oh, he was suffocated to death.

There were some wire marks
left on the neck.

The estimated time of death
is around 2:00 a.m.

Only two hours after
Nishinosono-san was attacked.

The wire allegedly used as the murder weapon,
was found near the shutter in the receiving room.

The emergency exit was locked from inside, so the
culprit must have escaped through that shutter.

I thought the shutter
had been out-of-order.

Yes, but it was repaired three days ago.

What's the matter?

How about the door
to the preparation room?

It was locked.

Ichinose-san became suspicious
because of that

so she grabbed the key
and entered the room.

She attended a study group
in Nagasaki yesterday

and returned by air this morning.
Then she came straight here.

It's already been verified.

I see.

Professor Saikawa.

Howdy.

I'm sorry about Professor Kikuma.

Yeah.

It's a huge loss for
the academic society as well.

What'll happen to us now?

There's something I want to ask
about Masuda-kun.

There was a folder named 'shika' on the computer
he left. Do any of you know what it means?

- 'Shika'?
- As in 'deer' in Japanese?

I don't know.
It's 's-h-i-k-a' in the Roman alphabet.

Isn't it the account name?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

But I don't remember anyone
named 'shika'.

What do you mean?

In this seminar, all account names for the
university computer are named after animals.

For example,
'Kuma' (bear) for Professor Kikuma.

'Risu' (squirrel) for Ms. Ichinose,
because her first name is Rika.

I'm Kita (north),
so 'fox' as in the northern fox.

Isn't it fun?

Who's the administrator of the workstation
at the Polar Research Center?

Did you just ignore me?

Traditionally, the seminar leader
is supposed to take charge.

After Masuda-kun, Niwa-kun was
the seminar leader, wasn't he?

Yes, and I'm handling it temporarily.

- Do you mind if I take a look?
- Oh.

Here it is.

'Shika'?

'Shika'... 'Shika'...

- So, there really is an account named 'shika'.
- This account was created three years ago.

Was Masuda-kun the administrator
at the time?

Yes, he was.

[Permissions]

'Shika' has been given permission for full access to
the computer network of the Polar Research Center.

- What?
- Masuda-kun must've configured it like this.

- So that means...
- You can browse the email of every member

of the Kikuma laboratory.

- What? Who's this 'shika' person?
- What?

[Mail viewed]
[From: Nishinosono Moe / To: Saikawa Sohei]

Oh, gee...

What's so important
that we need to talk in private?

It turns out that 'shika' also hacked into the
network of my laboratory after the incident.

Huh?

For what reason?

To keep an eye on email
from Nishinosono-kun.

Nishinosono-kun was reading the police report
and sending me some critical information.

And also, she reported to me that she was going
to check on Masuda-kun's computer yesterday.

So you're saying, 'shika' found out
and attacked Moe-chan?

It's a hypothesis for now.

But, to say the least, 'shika' is someone
who's connected to the Kikuma laboratory.

By any chance...

are you suspecting me for real?

I can't deny the possibility.

[Kunieda Momoko - Research Associate]
[Hamanaka Fukashi - M2 in Architecture]

Oh! Professor Saikawa!

Yeah?

Is Nishinosono-san alright?

She's completely better now.

I'm relieved!

In that case, I'll take everyone
to visit her in the hospital.

Yeah.

I checked it out as you told me.

What did you find out?

As you said, the network security
had been compromised.

How about the pathway of entry?

It was through this computer of yours.

Thank you.

Oh, Kunieda-kun?

Yes?

Do you think all women want to wear
a white dress at their wedding?

Are you really asking me that question?

Never mind.

[You received new mail]

It's me, Moe.

I heard about Professor Kikuma.

I wonder if this case is
back to square one again.

I got some new information from
Detective Ukai, so I'll report it to you.

As for the result of autopsy

it's been determined that Professor Kikuma
was tied with the wire from behind

and hung up by the crane
in the receiving room.

This is Saikawa.

It is too dangerous for you to
get closer to the truth of this case.

Our email communication
is being watched by the culprit.

Leave the rest to me, and be sure
not to contact me via email or phone.

I understand.

One last thing.

Please bring a sad case like this...

to an end already.

[Please bring a sad case like this
to an end already.]

[Kikuma Kyosuke]
[Ichinose Rika]

Something always goes wrong
when conducting an experiment.

- Disappearance.
- A broken shutter.

- 'Shika'.
- Two people went in, two people came out.

- A white suit and a dress.
- Why was he in the duct space?

- The crane.
- The pathway of entry.

Unnecessary locked-room.

I know, I know!

But... would it be possible to do something
that extreme for someone else?

You have no choice but to accept.

This proposition has been proved.

This is Saikawa.

Your methods are all self-evident.

But the motive is incomprehensible.

Please explain it to me
before you turn yourself in.

I promise to keep my silence,
as long as there are reasonable grounds.

[Sending mail]

[Mail sent]

[Jitou General Hospital]

[Nishinosono Moe]

I'm sorry for asking you to come.

It's fine, but why do you want to
get out of the hospital all of a sudden?

It hasn't gone back to square one yet.

What?

Since email and phone calls
are being monitored

I want to confirm it with
Professor Saikawa in person.

Understood.

Let's go.

Thank you very much for going along
with my selfish desires.

Will you please tell me the reason why
you killed Niwa-kun and Hattori-san?

Wait.

Something is wrong.

What?

Professor Saikawa's car is still here,
but his lights aren't on.

Moe-chan!

Please keep an eye on
the exit of the building!

Professor Saikawa!

Don't come!

Stop!

- Are you alright?
- Yes, we must go!

Right!

Please don't do it!

Ms. Ichinose.

I've read your collaborative paper
with Professor Kikuma.

I was impressed with that idea.

It's an analysis method
no one ever thought of.

There's no end to pure learning.

You must be the only person who can
take over Professor Kikuma's research.

And also, for the sake of Masuda-kun,
who had his future promised.

Ms. Ichinose.

Please step down from there.

Ms. Ichinose.

Learning...

It's so empty.

How's Ichinose-san's condition?

She narrowly escaped death.

It was fortunate
that she hit the tree once.

I'm relieved.

It's my fault.

I drove her into a corner.

It's no one's fault.

She brought this on herself.

Um, anyway.

Can you tell us
what this is all about?

Professor Saikawa?

Ichinose Rika-san was the culprit.
That's the answer.

But, that doesn't really tell us anything,
you know?

What do you mean?
Everything has become clear already.

No, no, no, no, no.

- Right?
- Yes.

Nothing has become clear yet.

- Professor Saikawa.
- Yeah?

You also need to give them
an explanation, not just an answer.

Oh... I see.

Okay.

This case started with the murders of Niwa-kun
and Hattori-san inside the mysterious locked-room.

I'll explain that problem first.

What? Did you also solve
the mystery of that locked-room?

Yes, the solution is quite simple.

First, let's call the preparation room and the
receiving room as the locked-room 'A' altogether.

It is certain that those two were killed
inside the locked-room 'A'

but how did the culprit 'X'
escape from there?

There are three exits
in the locked-room 'A'.

The emergency exit cannot be
locked from outside.

The shutter is broken
in the receiving room.

Therefore, there remains only one possibility.

The culprit 'X' exited through the preparation
room's door and locked it from outside.

I can't think otherwise.

But... we couldn't find anyone like that in the
video recording of that security camera.

- Right?
- Yes.

Niwa and Hattori Tamako were the only ones
who went in and out during the experiment.

After that, no one touched that door
until the discovery of the corpses.

- You see?
- Yes, you're correct.

So, it only makes sense to think that

Niwa-kun and Hattori-san, who came out
during the experiment, were culprit 'X'.

- Huh?
- Hun?

But, Niwa and Hattori Tamako
had been killed.

So, there's no other way but to think that
the culprit 'X', who came out during the experiment

were actually two different people,
who posed as Niwa-kun and Hattori-san.

Two different people?

Hold on a minute. Are you saying that
Ichinose Rika is not the culprit?

The one who killed Hattori-san
was Ichinose-san.

And the one who killed Niwa-kun was...

Professor Kikuma.

Professor Kikuma?

He was an accomplice?

Yes.

To accomplish this scheme, it was necessary
for the two of them to work together.

After Niwa-kun entered the preparation room
during that experiment

Professor Kikuma went outside through
the window of the professor's office.

And he had Niwa-kun open the lock
and entered through the emergency exit.

Then he killed Niwa-kun
in the receiving room.

No matter how many times he's
done this before, he's still bad!

After that, Professor Kikuma put on the cold-resistant
suit and came out of the room, posing as Niwa-kun.

He changed his clothes in the grad student's room
and went around outside to return to the office.

In the same manner, after Hattori-san
entered the preparation room

it was Ichinose-san's turn to go and enter the
preparation room through the emergency exit.

And she killed Hattori-san.

Ichinose-kun, could you scan the localization of
the X-Y axis directions and keep an eye on it?

The reason Professor Kikuma came
out of his office at that moment

was to gain enough time for
Ichinose-san to finish her crime.

And lastly, Ichinose-san put on
the cold-resistant suit

and while coming out of the room,
posing as Hattori-san

she secretly locked the door
from the laboratory's side.

Therefore, such condition took place that
two corpses were left inside the locked-room 'A'.

In order to pose as two people
with a height difference

Professor Kikuma and Ichinose-san had
no choice but to cooperate for this scheme.

But, there are still some doubtful points.

How did Professor Kikuma and Ichinose-san
take off and grab their cold-resistant suits?

That's right. Even if the
opponents were their teachers

things wouldn't go smoothly if they were suddenly
asked to take off the suits during the experiment.

Niwa-kun and Hattori-san were going to take off
the cold-resistant suits from the start anyway.

What? In the middle of the experiment?
How come?

To change their dresses.

- To change their dresses?
- To change their dresses?

A suit and a dress for the party were found inside
Niwa-san's car on the day of the incident.

There is no better proof than that.

What do you mean by that?

Niwa-san and Tamako-san
had decided to get married

and they broke the news
to Professor Kikuma.

I'm certain that they were suggested to
have some kind of surprise plan at that time.

Surprise plan?

Yes.

To change places with Professor Kikuma and
Ichinose-san in the middle of the experiment

and for them to appear out of nowhere
in a suit and a dress at the wrap party.

Then, they would announce their marriage
on the spot and surprise everyone.

I assume it was a plan like that.

That's why they took off the cold-resistant
suits in the middle of the experiment?

But, when they took off the suits, Professor Kikuma
and Ichinose-san betrayed and killed them.

That's why they were stabbed
without any resistance.

And the reason why they made such a careful plan
and committed murder during the experiment was

so that Kikuma and Ichinose could
establish their alibis, wasn't it?

Yes.

But, an unanticipated event
had happened.

The shutter in the receiving room!

Right. On the day of the incident, the malfunction
of the shutter was discovered in the morning.

But Professor Kikuma and Ichinose-san
didn't know about that fact.

And that's why the unnecessary
locked-room was created, wasn't it?

- Yeah.
- Huh? Huh?

What do you mean by
'the unnecessary locked-room'?

There was no need to have
a locked-room in this scheme.

If the shutter could be opened, you would think
the culprit had escaped from it, wouldn't you?

Yes, it's only natural to think so.

No one would suspect those two, since
they were on the side of the laboratory.

It could reinforce their alibis
even stronger.

That was their original plan.

So, it was unfortunate for them that the
unnecessary locked-room was created.

Is that right?

It was just a slight misalignment.

But this slight misalignment derailed the perfect
crime scheme derived by two superior minds.

In fact, their perfect crime would have been
completed if the shutter didn't malfunction.

But, why would Professor Kikuma
and Ichinose-san do such a thing?

Right.

That was the biggest proposition
of this case.

The madness which killed two students, was lurking
within this place in pursuit of pure learning.

Such a thing was
beyond my comprehension.

What do you think
has happened to them?

Perhaps, it all started with Masuda Jun-san,
who had disappeared two years ago.

Masuda Jun?

Isn't that the student who
committed suicide in the duct room?

Yes.

Right before his disappearance, Masuda-san
attacked Niwa-san with a knife, didn't he?

Yes, we are aware of that, of course.

I think that Masuda-san and Ms. Ichinose
were in a relationship.

That means,
the identity of 'shika' was Ichinose-san?

But their relationship had ended for some
reason, and Masuda-san disappeared.

Masuda-kun!

I wonder if Niwa-san and Tamako-san
were the cause of their break-up.

Professor Kikuma,
I've decided to marry Hattori-san.

And those two came to announce
that they were getting married.

When Ms. Ichinose saw the happy couple,
who took her lover away

murderous intent was conceived
inside her.

So far so good.

But then... why did Professor Kikuma
cooperate with Ichinose-san?

That's because...

I don't know.

Their collaborative paper showed
a very deep relationship of mutual trust.

Do you think he cooperated with her crime
out of the relation between teacher and student?

That won't explain everything.

I got it! They were lovers!

No, that's still way too short
to be the answer.

I can't imagine that Professor Kikuma,
someone who dedicated his life to learning

would just throw away his research
and help his lover's crime.

Then, why?

Those two must have shared...

a much deeper bond.

I know the answer, Professor Saikawa.

They were...

father and daughter, weren't they?

- What?
- Father and daughter?

That's the only way to explain
Professor Kikuma's behavior.

But...

Professor Kikuma graduated from
Okayama Institute of Technology

and Ichinose-san was also from Okayama.

Around the same time
as Professor Kikuma's divorce

Ichinose-san's mother also got
divorced and she was born.

- Sohei, hold on a minute.
- Yeah?

And then, who killed Professor Kikuma?

That's right!
Ichinose Rika has an alibi.

That's the most conspicuous proof
of them being father and daughter.

Because their perfect crime scheme had failed,
they were being driven into a critical state.

I heard a rumor that
Niwa-san was seeing someone.

After the incident, Nishinosono-kun started to
investigate and it also made them nervous.

So, Ichinose-san set up a virus on a USB stick,
enabling her to monitor Nishinosono-kun's email.

That night,
Ichinose-san was in Nagasaki.

And from the contents of email

she found out that Nishinosono-kun was
closing in on Masuda-kun's computer.

After receiving that report from her

in order to prevent Masuda-kun's
data from being taken away

Professor Kikuma attacked Nishinosono-kun,
wearing the cold-resistant suit.

He took the data back from her and
destroyed Masuda-kun's computer first

then he entered the preparation room and
barricaded himself by locking the door from inside.

Professor Kikuma's state of mind
at this time is beyond my imagination.

And he chose to kill himself.

It was suicide?

But I thought Professor Kikuma was
lying on the floor when you found him.

Ichinose-san had moved his body.

What?

Professor Kikuma knew that
Ichinose-san would get worried

and stop by first thing in the morning
after returning from her business trip.

So, he might have attached a memo or something
on the key to the preparation room.

Make it look like I was murdered. You're smart
enough to know what needs to be done.

His memo must have said
something like this.

'Make it look like I was murdered.'

Dad...

Ichinose-san followed the last word
of her father.

And after everything was done...

she screamed.

Why do you think Professor Kikuma
gave her such instructions?

In order to protect Ichinose-san,
his daughter.

Ichinose-san was on her business trip
in Nagasaki, so she had a perfect alibi.

If Professor Kikuma was killed
by someone at that time

Ichinose-san would be excluded from the
suspects for this series of incidents as well.

Protecting his daughter
at the sacrifice of his own life.

It was the final answer
Professor Kikuma's mind derived.

Understood.

The rest is our job to do.

We'll wait for Ichinose Rika's recovery
and find out the truth from her directly.

I wonder what kind of relationship
Professor Kikuma and Ms. Ichinose had.

I think they had mutual respect
in the field of learning

and were the best partners who
could argue in the same language.

Then, they must have had recovered
their lost relationship through their research.

But I think your relationship
is quite something as well!

- Kita, Kita!
- What is it?

Stop making thoughtless remarks like that.
I'd get into trouble if any bad rumors got around.

What's the definition of bad rumors for you?
You'll need to describe it more theoretically--

Oh! Come to think of it, that spirited
away of the Polar Research Center.

What on earth was the first disappearance
of the seminar leader about?

Oh.

What are you laughing about?
Didn't you tell her?

Huh? What is it?

Oh.

That... that seminar leader was...

me.

What?

Kita abandoned his research and went to India
to pursue his girlfriend, an exchange student.

And everyone thought he disappeared
and made a big fuss. That's all.

You should have told me first.

I did tell you that exactly
in the first place.

But, you would think the story like that
is a joke, wouldn't you?

I would never tell such a bad joke.

You would! Being unaware of that fact
is a problem, you know?

The reason you assume my jokes are bad
is because your subjectivity is out of sync.

I'm not out of sync at all.

You are.

I'm not.

You are.

[Five days later]

They found out the motive
from Ms. Ichinose's testimony.

Two years ago, after the year-end
party of the Kikuma seminar

Ms. Ichinose was forced into
Niwa-san's room and assaulted by him.

And Tamako-san told Masuda-san
about it.

Masuda-san, who was Ms. Ichinose's lover,
was shocked by it and disappeared.

And he ended up like that.

Ever since then, Ms. Ichinose came to bear
grudges against Niwa-san and Tamako-san.

I don't think Tamako-san
meant any harm.

But...

that's just another hypothesis, isn't it?

What if there was a Tamako-san
I never knew?

Not every problem has a solution.

If there's no way to validate, you have no choice
but to trust your hypothesis, don't you think?

I didn't want to find out such a sad
ending if I had known before.

Because you knew
this would end like this

you were worried that I might go
too far into this case, weren't you?

I just gave you the natural attention
as your instructor in charge.

Oh, Professor Saikawa!

I did solve the problem!

Yeah?

The meaning of 'shika'.

Oh, that.
And what's your answer?

Ms. Ichinose once studied abroad
in Germany.

A female deer is called
'ricke' in German.

So it was Ichinose Rika-san!

It isn't... incorrect.

This family is cursed!

Even if this is murder,
the culprit can't escape outside.

Suicide or murder... Either way,
this is incomprehensible.

It's the same as the incident
50 years ago, when the master died!

- Let's go.
- Yeah.
