MURDERER'S DAUGHTER
STUDENT MURDERS TEACHER
MR. BANDO…
SUICIDE…
LIKE PARENT, LIKE CHILD
Hello.
I'm Sachiko Tachibana.
Please come in, Ms. Tachibana.
Your hobbies are cooking and…
listening to music?
How lovely!
What kind of music do you listen to?
I like Brahms, Debussy, and…
It feels shallow to say
I like classical music to you though.
No, I love them too. They are unassuming,
but still so very beautiful.
So, Ms. Tachibana…
You have two years
experience in babysitting…
But the thing is,
Kokoro is a sensitive child.
-I prefer someone more experienced--
-Um…
I might not have a lot
of actual experience,
but I am a certified babysitter,
a child psychological counselor,
and a pediatric first aider.
I will do anything to support you
so you can have some time for yourself
to relax and feel refreshed.
Thank you.
However…
I feel like your enthusiasm
and desperation feels a little
abnormal?
Sorry.
-I’m probably overthinking it!
-No. I mean…
-I…
-Sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you.
I was just taken aback a bit, that’s all.
Your tea…
It's getting cold.
Hey, hey…
What's wrong?
Um…
May I try…
holding her once?
No, that's okay.
What's wrong?
I look ugly in that photo, don’t I?
No, not at all.
Stop staring, it's an embarrassing photo.
Did you go to Misaki Gakuen High School,
Ms. Hanai?
Yes…
How did you know?
I used to live nearby.
-What?
-I recognized the uniform.
Are you serious?
Where did you live?
Do you remember there was a bakery
behind the church?
-Yes, I do.
-That same street.
-Really?
-Yes.
I used to go to that bakery all the time!
My absolute favorite was the…
butter roll!
Oh, you too?
Hang on,
I might have photos of that bakery!
This makes me so happy!
You've made me want to listen
to some Brahms.
By the way,
wasn't there a murder case
at Misaki Gakuen a while ago?
Don't you remember?
It gained a lot of attention
from the media.
I don't remember that at all!
At an apartment in Kawasaki today,
Keisuke Bando, a reporter from Maicho
Newspaper, was found unconscious…
14 YEARS AGO
…and was taken to a hospital
where he later died.
Also found dead at the entrance
of the apartment
was his colleague, Atsushi Goto,
with multiple stab wounds in his neck.
The knife that was used
had Mr. Bando's fingerprints on it.
-The police…
-It doesn't make any sense!
-My husband wouldn't do this to us!
-Mom!
I understand how you feel, Mrs. Bando.
But the fingerprints and the DNA
detected matched your husbands.
I beg you!
-There were eyewitnesses, too.
-Please!
-Mom!
-Please reinvestigate!
-That's enough, Mom!
-Please!
Concentrate, Bando.
From No. 15.
Yes, sir.
1… 2…
Just stay there forever!
You can just live in there.
She actually came out!
-You look gross!
-Wow, she's soaked!
CAN YOU JUST DIE?
Why did she come out?
MURDERER'S DAUGHTER
My dad's not a murderer.
What? Did you say something?
My dad's not a murderer!
Why did he kill himself then?
It was out of guilt, wasn't it?
Nothing to say, huh?
Do you think my dad
really murdered that man?
Your dad…
He often came to my dad's work
to interview him.
Whenever his colleague messed up,
he said it was his fault
and covered for them.
What do you believe, Sawako?
Do you really believe…
that he's a killer?
Then…
you should believe in him.
Not just you.
I believe in him.
Thank you.
Please don't cry.
Here you go.
Thanks!
Makoto.
What do you mean?
Makoto's incapable…
of loving someone.
He never can.
I…
can't watch you get hurt again!
Rena…
Stop.
Your technique is great, Kurokawa,
but you convey no emotion at all.
It will be a huge weak point
if you want to be a professional pianist.
I want to practice
our concert song a bit more.
Can we practice it together?
Rena?
Rena…
What's going on?
My goodness, you're so clumsy!
Honestly!
Don't you worry!
Guess who did this?
You, Sawako!
This looks so familiar!
You know…
you are annoyingly like your dad!
The way you both get into people's way!
No way…
Rena, did you
kill my dad?
Sawako, thank you so much for this.
I'm sorry but…
although I do feel a connection to you,
at this time, I can't hire you.
I have to be sure.
Because my husband
and Kokoro are my everything.
I want to give it plenty of time
and choose carefully
to find the best possible sitter for her.
Kokoro, what's wrong?
Kokoro?
What's up with you?
Excuse me, when was the last time she ate?
Two hours ago.
I hate to ask this
but could I check her diapers?
She might have diarrhea.
Okay.
-It looks like an allergic reaction.
-Really?
What do I do?
I know a pediatric food allergist.
It's a holiday today,
but I can try calling.
FLOWER SHOP BELLA
Here you go!
By the way, I bought tickets
for Rena's recital!
Oh, you did? Thank you as always!
I'll let her know.

COMMITS SUICIDE

SUSPECT GIRL A
-Here's the flyer for the recital.
-Thanks.
She looks great!
-I totally agree!
-Yuki!
Do you want to stay for dinner?
It's almost ready!
I'd love to!
-Just wait here with my dad and Kokoro!
-Okay!
It was amazing she noticed the allergy.
Is she hired?
I'm not sure yet.
It would give me peace of mind
to know we can rely
on the babysitter
in emergency cases like today.
You're back to work, after all.
And also…
we'll be able to have some alone time.
This is Hanai.
Thank you for today.
Thank you for meeting with me.
You were right. It was an egg allergy.
You were a great help.
And well…
it got me thinking…
and we would like to have you
as our babysitter.
Would you accept our offer?
Of course!
Thank you for offering it to me.
Hello? I just got a call from her.
They hired me.
Now it finally begins.
From the height of happiness
to making life hell for her.
An unimaginable living hell.
-See you.
-Who are you?
Her dad doesn't seem to trust me.
Don't let your guard down.
I need your help.
Do you admit it or not?
