It's said that
we've entered a cashless age.
But in his case
650 yen, please.
Do you accept this?
He just has no common sense.
His name is Goro Akechi.
The culprit is among you.
He's a private detective,
and he's also the son of Ogiya
Department Store's founder.
I'm Ichigo Kobayashi,
the owner of a bento food truck.
Ichigou Kobayashi?
It is "Ichigo," without a "u"!
Our relationship was nothing
more than that, but
Come to think of it,
that was the start of everything.
It was supposed to be
just an infidelity investigation.
Didn't you lock your true self
somewhere in your heart?
From now on, you should
set your true self free more.
What Mr Akechi said
created the terrifying
serial k*ller, Maria Magdalena
My only happiness
is k*lling people.
I must thank you for that.
This time, it's your turn to eat
the forbidden fruit.
Why do I have to do this?
Before I knew it, I started working
like I'm Mr Akechi's assistant,
got involved in cases
Someday,
in front of Goro Akechi's eyes,
I'll k*ll you.
Then, before I realised,
I had
I'll protect you.
fallen in love with him.
Love that can't be taken back.
I know
what you're going to do later.
Don't go there!
Mr Akechi!
I love you.
I really love you!
So please, don't go!
Thank you
Ichigo Kobayashi.
No!
- Ichigo!
- Mr Akechi!
Why?
Afterwards, no matter how hard
we searched,
we still couldn't find
Mr Akechi and Maria.
What will you do?
Thank you
Ichigo Kobayashi.
Ask the police to search for him?
Yeah
- Mr Akechi!
- Mr Akechi!
You're okay? Are you injured?
Are you a ghost?
He has legs,
and I can't see through him.
He probably isn't
a look-alike either.
Gosh, we were so worried!
What happened?
Sorry, I'm exhausted.
Mr Akechi
His "go away" aura
is stronger than usual.
This is my hypothesis
and I thought I'd never say it,
but it's having a ring of truth now.
What is it?
It was the only way to stop Maria
from losing control.
And it was
to protect you too, Ichigo.
Just tell me what he did.
Mr Akechi
k*lled Maria.
After that, half a year had passed.
The detective jobs
that Mr Akechi got were
Sakura?
jobs like asking him
to look for missing cats
Sakura.
No case that can be related to Maria
had occurred.
Which means, just as we thought
Mr Akechi k*lled Maria.
No way, he couldn't have.
Goro?
Mrs Akechi?
Where's Goro?
He's gone out for a job.
What do you want?
She's so cute!
You've found Sakura?
Goro, you didn't forget what
you promised to do tomorrow, right?
I must tell you, I'm not attending
the teacake qualifying competition.
You've just made me a judge
to introduce me
as the successor of Ogiya, right?
Young Master, you're perceptive.
What are you talking about?
It's the Summit, the Summit.
- Isn't this an honour?
- You mean that Summit?
- Not the supermarket.
- I'm a private detective.
Why should I curry favour
with the high officials?
Stop complaining!
- Komatsuzaki.
- Yes, ma'am.
Excuse me.
Stop! What are you doing?
Let go! Hey!
Tomorrow, at a hotel of our chain,
a qualifying competition
for teacakes to be served
at August's Summit
will be held.
It will surely be the big moment
to present Goro to the entire world.
To the entire world
Sorry to have kept you waiting.
Oh, you look so handsome!
It fits perfectly.
Thank you.
Listen, Goro, make sure you dress
like this when you come tomorrow.
Okay?
All right, let's go.
Hello!
Oh, see you again.
Yes. See you.
How beautiful!
What are you here for?
I was wondering about
what you were doing.
Nothing. Go home.
Oh, a postman just came
and delivered this airmail.
Disappear before him and me.
"Mary Magdalene"?
Who is that?
Maria
No!
She's alive.
Maria is a woman, right?
What is your relationship?
"How are you, Mr Detective?
Let's meet again soon."
Who is she?
What is your relationship?
Just an acquaintance.
You're trying to deceive me again.
I'll return the cat to her owner.
I'm mortified!
The number of arrests made
for criminal offences last year
reduced by three per cent
compared to the year before.
The clearance rate on the other hand
is over 80 per cent,
which has been rising
for four years in a row.
In the future
Well, the high officials are using
the familiar number tricks
to lie to us
that the country is peaceful.
When someone dies
an unnatural death,
Japan's police dismisses 90 per cent
of them as suicide or disease.
The qualifying competition of sweets
to be served at the G7 Summit
will be held tomorrow
at Tokyo's Ougiya Grand Hotel,
and Prime Minister Kannazuki
will be attending it.
About the Summit,
PM Kannazuki says that
he'd like to let people
coming from all over the world
experience Japan's tradition
and vibrant world of food.
Chef, she has arrived!
Hi, Chef. It's been a while.
Ms Maria, welcome home.
- Ringo, you seem to be doing well.
- Yes.
Oh, welcome home, Ms Maria!
Reizoko, my dear!
No, not yet.
I've been working with soil.
We'd like to show you something.
The flowers you asked Reizoko
to look after
are blooming beautifully.
Could this be
Wolfsbane.
Yes, wolfsbane.
The flowers are quite beautiful.
The flowers are so pretty
But they're extremely poisonous.
We'll start doing something fun
again right away.
Ms Maria, where will you jump off
next time?
Oh, you made our heart skip a beat.
If you want to jump,
then we'll use this again.
At that time,
Akechi was prepared to die
for you, Ms Maria.
Why? Are you jealous?
All right,
let's k*ll some evil people again.
But it's boring to just k*ll them.
So this time,
we'll let them play a fun game.
- Game?
- Game?
Okay, perfect.
I had learned how to dress someone
in the past.
If tomorrow
If you were to be k*lled tomorrow
what would be the last thing
you'd eat?
"Final Episode"
"Ougiya Grand Hotel"
"The day of the teacake
qualifying competition"
"Ichigo Deli"
You should've worn the kimono.
Give me a break.
The competition will end at 4 p.m.
Wait here until then.
Okay.
Thanks, as always.
You're welcome.
Goro, what's this?
It's your usual suit.
You're always so rebellious.
If you don't like it, I'll go.
Oh, wait
I'm happy enough that you came.
Okay, greet the government officials
properly when you see them.
Loudly and clearly.
I'm not a primary school kid.
- Hey, Akechi.
- Mr Akechi!
Hi.
A case?
We're sent here as backup
for VIP protection.
They're here.
Oh, Mr Tasaka!
Thank you for giving Ogiya
such an honourable job!
Ogiya has a long history,
so we don't have to worry.
Come, Goro, say hello.
I'm the eldest son, Goro.
I'm Foreign Minister Tasaka.
Nice to meet you.
We've been expecting you, sir.
This way, please.
Prime Minister!
Mr Kannazuki!
Come, greet the PM.
Now.
"Kamakura Azusawaya"
"Hoteiya"
We're from Nihonbashi Mariya.
Oh, thanks for coming.
Please work at this table.
Serve the three sweets on each
of the single-tiered black food box.
Yes. Three on each, right?
We will do that.
Take care of the rest.
Goro, we got permission
to take photos with the PM.
What's fun about taking photos
with a middle-aged man?
I prefer the sweets to the PM.
Goro!
Now, what sweets
will this shop serve?
Oh, there are three kinds?
Excuse me, ladies,
am I interrupting your work?
Are you
staff members of this shop?
- Yes.
- Yes.
In that case, I'd like to ask
why you'll serve a green plum cake.
The Summit will be held in August.
Green plum is eaten in late May.
It's out of season for three months.
Moreover,
the azalea is supposed to－
It's the colour.
The colour
Indeed, if served to foreigners,
sweets that are brightly coloured
would be more popular.
But in that case,
azalea would be bright red usually,
but the colour of this azalea
is pretty light.
Is there any
Oh, don't worry about it.
Goro! What are you doing?
It's going to start. Sit down.
Look, your table is here.
Maria.
Wait!
What is she doing here?
How are you, Mr Detective?
Let's meet again soon.
Here you go, sir.
Don't tell me
"Nihonbashi Mariya"?
"Mariya"
Okay, Kurukku.
Tell me about Nihonbashi Mariya.
Kurukku!
I'm sorry, I don't understand.
Could this be a shop
that doesn't exist?
- Let go! Help!
- I don't understand. I'm sorry.
I'm bored. So bored, so bored.
Don't interrupt our game.
I'm bored. So bored, so bored
"Mariya"?
A vehicle with "Nihonbashi Mariya"
printed
It's not on the list
of permitted vehicles.
Maybe it's here for something else.
I'm a bit curious.
I'll check it out.
Hey! I know we have nothing to do,
but we shouldn't leave our post!
Hey!
They do have work to do.
The Russian roulette will start now.
Russian roulette?
Participants can start eating
from any sweet.
But among them, one is poisoned.
All right, the sweet they choose
will decide their fate.
Will the detective
who likes lecturing people
realise what game we're playing
today?
Come on, try the sweets now
and evaluate them.
If one of them is poisoned,
it'd be the green plum one.
Is the poison extracted
from green plum put inside?
But the poison of green plum
can't k*ll a person.
It'll only cause panic at the venue.
What should I do? If I make a fuss,
they will suspect me.
The PM and Foreign Minister
both chose the azalea.
This is
This syringe contains
the same deadly poison
that was put in the "lucky" sweet.
It's wolfsbane's poison.
I can't believe I got it wrong!
This isn't azalea.
It's balloon flower.
That's right. It's balloon flower.
The balloon flower
is the Akechi Family's crest.
How auspicious.
Mum, spit it out! Spit it out!
Don't eat it!
Don't eat the balloon flower sweet!
- What happened?
- Mr Akechi?
- The sweet could be poisoned!
- Poisoned?
- Prime Minister
- Prime Minister!
- Mr Tasaka!
- Mr Katono, the Foreign Minister!
- What's happening?
- Call an ambulance!
Call an ambulance!
Police! Please stay where you are!
Mum, are you okay?
Breaking news.
Just now at Minato's
Ougiya Grand Hotel,
a t*rror1st attack targeting
the Prime Minister has occurred.
We don't know the Prime Minister's
condition in detail.
Seriously?
Ougiya Grand Hotel is where Ichigo
and Mr Akechi are right now.
A t*rror1st attack targeting
the Prime Minister
"I saw the news"
"What t*rror1st attack?"
Condition is unknown
Today, Mr Kannazuki
We've finally started committing
indiscriminate m*rder.
Could we be t*rrorists?
Somehow it's awesome!
Wait, what is it?
Something a m*rder*r issues
at a time like this.
Oh, you mean
a claim of responsibility?
Yes, a claim of responsibility!
Will we issue one?
Ms Maria isn't interested in that.
She purely wants to take
people's lives.
That's all.
That's what makes her frightening
and beautiful.
Thank you.
Excuse me.
Goro.
You saved my life.
Thank you.
Everyone there would've done that,
even if it wasn't me.
I said thank you.
Why did that happen?
The culprit is just amusing herself
with this situation.
I'm talking about you.
You're Akechi Family's eldest son,
the successor
of Ogiya Department Store.
Why?
You talk about that
every time I see you.
I know.
It's my fault.
I have no taste buds,
and I hate cooking.
I couldn't give my children
the memory of their mum's cooking.
I used my work as an excuse,
and I didn't do anything
a mother should do for you.
Another business trip?
I'll buy you souvenirs.
That's right.
And that led to hatred.
Look who's talking!
I feel ashamed to be a mother.
My own son hates me.
Indeed, you're a horrible mother.
A stupid, foolish mother.
A rude, impolite,
and extremely insensitive mother.
However
I have never hated you once.
The one I hate
is what turned my mother
into a mother like that.
It's the signboard of Ogiya.
Goro
But thanks to that,
I can say I've found my own life.
I'd given up trying to make you
the successor of Ogiya long ago.
I appreciate that.
You should've told me sooner.
But please listen
to the two wishes I have
as your mother.
Two?
What are they?
You can choose
whatever life you want,
but
just don't do anything that'll
make you die before your mother.
Well, I'll listen to that
as your wish.
The other one is
I hope you will get married soon
and have a happy family.
Look
Ms Ichigo, right?
Our family is way out of her league,
but to you
she will surely be a good wife.
Well, I'll consider the suggestion.
Mr Akechi.
May I talk to you?
About what?
Who is Maria?
It doesn't concern you.
Isn't she involved in this case?
Why do you think so?
She sent you the postcard, right?
In that case,
do you want to meet Maria?
Yes.
Maria is right behind you now.
Mr Akechi, don't make jokes about
What?
She couldn't have gone far
if she's in a kimono.
I'm so useless
I can't believe I forgot my shoes.
Mr Katono!
Mr Akechi is acting weird.
Mr Akechi knows something.
Yes?
What?
Foreign Minister Tasaka died?
Akechi knows something, right?
This has gotten serious.
We have just been informed
by a government official
that the death
of Foreign Minister Tasaka
has been confirmed.
She made the nation's power
her enemy.
It's a t*rror1st attack.
Ichigo, Maria is at this hotel
Showa period's
withered pampas grass.
Foreign Minister Tasaka is dead.
Tell me what's going on here!
Did you know
the teacakes were poisoned?
- I'm not the culprit.
- How did you know then?
Some of them were out of season.
Out of season?
All sweets served at a tea ceremony
have a meaning,
but someone ignored that.
That alone won't let you know
they were poisoned.
You know who did this, don't you?
I'm warning you not as a cop
but as an undesirable friend.
Listen, this isn't just any m*rder.
The victim is a minister of Japan.
The police will do everything
they can to find the m*rder*r.
If they can't,
they'll fabricate evidence
to keep the police's dignity.
They'll arrest me
and make me the m*rder*r?
It's a piece of cake
for a nation's power.
I know.
If they get you like this,
you'll be sent to a place
that's beyond my reach.
If that happens,
there's nothing I can do.
It isn't wise to arrest me now.
It's likely that
only I can solve this case.
You think the police will buy that?
Not the police.
It's whether you believe me or not!
My undesirable friend.
Inspector Katono.
You saw someone suspicious?
What is the person like?
The appearance?
Someone wearing a white kimono,
about 30 to 40 years old
Male.
Thanks for your cooperation.
- Let's go.
- Yes, sir.
Maria!
Indeed, the current government
provokes the citizen's hostility.
But that isn't reason enough
to k*ll a key person.
Do you think you're a dark hero?
Moreover, if you k*ll randomly
like playing Russian roulette,
I could've died too.
No, you wouldn't die.
How can you be sure?
Because you hate Ogiya
and the Akechi Family.
You wouldn't have chosen
what the family crest of the darn
Akechi Family was modelled on.
Am I wrong?
Even so,
if you had chosen the balloon flower
and died,
I would've k*lled myself there too.
That is also
the greatest ecstasy in its own way.
You did that to test me
right from the beginning?
I tested the fate of both of us.
It's the game
that we both risked our lives on.
What? Ms Maria is with Akechi?
It's in front of the place
where Ms Maria told us to wait.
Did she have any trouble?
The police will put their prestige
at stake to search and arrest you
as the t*rror1st that challenged
the nation's power.
t*rror1st?
This is stupid.
Freeze!
Mr Akechi!
Mr Akechi!
Mr Akechi, stop!
Hey!
That was dangerous.
What are you doing
in the middle of the road?
"Mariya"?
You are
Wait!
Darn it.
I know very clearly now.
I was wrong, wasn't I?
I'm not the one who wants you.
You're the one who wants me.
I've been looking for you.
You forgot these, Ms Maria.
Thank you, Chef.
Let's hurry,
the police will set up a cordon.
Thank you for your help,
Mr Detective.
I don't hate you.
Will you also come to our world?
You'll feel better.
No, thanks.
Yeah?
Is this the life you desire
maestro of Harajuku?
I had no idea I could have
classic French cuisine in Tokyo.
It frustrates me.
Why did a chef as good as you
yield to a stupid evil will?
Thanks, everyone.
Welcome.
Chef?
I'll get rid of that girl later.
Perfectly, and leave no trace.
Oh, you shouldn't.
We need to hold a ceremony
before that.
Ceremony?
What will we do?
Tell me, what is the last thing
you want to eat before you die
if you were to be k*lled today?
"Edogawa Detective Office"
"Invitation"
The number you dialled
I can't get through.
What is stupid Akechi doing?
And?
Akechi took the woman's hand
and ran away?
Why?
It was Maria.
The woman must be Maria!
You didn't answer my question!
Why did Akechi
run away with the woman?
I don't know.
Someone wearing a white kimono,
about 30 to 40 years old
Male.
Takahashi.
Sir.
You used your g*n
near the scene
of the t*rror1st attack, right?
I thought
she could be the t*rror1st
In that case－
Sir, he only held the g*n,
but he didn't fire.
Am I right?
Yes. I didn't fire.
You should have.
Why didn't you sh**t her?
Don't give me that look!
The Foreign Minister was k*lled.
We'll put the police's prestige
at stake,
and we have to arrest the culprit
as quickly as we can.
Yes, of course.
To sum it up,
we don't need to find out
the truth of the case.
We only need to arrest a suspect,
right?
Katono
And we'll do everything we can
for that.
I'm sorry, sir,
but I'm not looking after him
to teach him that.
Katono.
Saying sound arguments
will get us nowhere.
We can't do anything
if we don't say sound arguments now!
Mr Katono
- Mr Katono! Mr Katono!
- Wait a minute!
What the heck?
The canteen
is on the floor downstairs!
Downstairs, right? Okay!
Not that. Ichigo has gone missing,
and I can't get a hold of her.
- Ichigo?
- Yes.
I got worried after the attack
and I've called her many times,
but I can't get a hold of her.
I can't get a hold of Akechi either.
Mr Katono, this
Something happened.
Mr Katono,
we saw no man in white kimono
at the crime scene,
but there was a woman
in white kimono.
It's her! This is the woman
Mr Akechi ran away with.
Maria.
Maria?
What's going on? Why?
Mr Akechi ran away with Maria?
Takahashi, get everyone here.
We'll hold an urgent meeting.
- Yes, sir!
- Yes, sir!
I'll talk to you in detail later.
"Incoming call: Mr Akechi"
Hello?
Nigou?
Yes.
Just to verify.
Is there any police officer
near you?
Where are you? What are you doing?
Everyone is looking for you.
There's no time.
Do as I say now.
Nihonbashi Mariya, which provided
the poison ingested by the victim,
is a dummy company as we thought.
They got away in a white HiAce.
The vehicle number
has also been identified.
You made my blood freeze.
I thought you'd really be shot
by the young detective.
99.9 per cent out of Japan's
300,000 police officers
will retire without firing
their g*ns once at work.
Mr Detective knew that too.
The policemen too.
They carry g*ns anyway.
They should fire them more.
Don't you think?
They should keep sh**ting the sinful
people in the rotten world dead.
It'll be a serious problem
if you have a g*n.
This is my g*n.
Be careful.
The wolfsbane's poison
is still in it.
I'd like to ask you something.
When you ran away with Akechi
if nobody could catch you
what would you have done?
Let me think.
After that,
the two of us lived happily
ever after in the Garden of Eden.
The end.
Tonight will be
a special dinner party.
Show me your skills, Chef.
Lovely.
Maria brought it for you in Paris.
It suits you.
Whoa, it's tacky.
I'm impressed by Ms Maria.
Her taste is so good.
What is good?
Come to meet me soon.
I can be myself.
Let's have our last supper
on our own.
So that we can become Adam and Eve.
It smells nice.
What are you making?
Fritters using vegetables
grown in our garden
and beef shank
braised with red wine and herbs.
Beef bourguignon, right?
How do you know?
Have you made it before?
Many times
I wanted to make it.
Hey
Just for a while.
I'll deal with his arm.
You aren't strong enough anyway.
- You've gotten over it?
- I'm starting to enjoy it.
At that time
Thanks for saving my life.
I just turned the rubbish grinder
off before we ran away.
Thanks to you
I can be alive now.
I know.
In your heart
Ms Maria is the only occupant.
I do know.
Auntie in Hirosaki?
What's the matter?
Why are you at Grandpa's home?
Where's Grandpa?
Why are you crying? What happened?
Grandpa what?
Heart－ Heart attack?
It's okay.
It's okay.
You've got me.
It's okay, Akane.
Don't worry about anything.
Are you sure you'll get off here?
Yeah, thank you.
I'll walk from here.
If you need help, I'll also
No need.
Moreover, tonight's dinner party
probably has a dress code.
Dress code
I'll need your help later.
Okay.
Ichigo
Please take care of her.
Ichigo
is my best friend.
Neutral.
Sorry for being late.
Okay, I'll go to get the wine.
Ms Akane
Why are you here?
Why are you doing this?
Because I have no place to go.
Aomori
You have the apple orchard
in Aomori!
You have a nice grandfather!
Now, really
I can only stay here.
What do you mean?
I think he's here.
Welcome.
We've been expecting you.
I'm making apple jam here.
Mr Akechi.
I received an invitation
for my last supper.
Last supper?
As I thought, this happened.
This happened.
I haven't seen you in this outfit
before.
- This is
- You have quite a good taste.
Not bad.
What?
Thank you.
It's our last supper,
so I thought I'd at least
let the young lady
wear a dress you'd like.
Thanks for your wonderful thought.
Welcome to our last supper.
Maria,
there's something
I need to tell you again.
What is it?
It's about today's
qualifying competition.
So far, you've been punishing
evil people.
They were murders committed
to save the weak,
justice mixed with contradiction.
I dare say that is "beautiful evil."
"Beautiful evil"?
It sounds nice.
However,
today's evil isn't beautiful.
I'm angry from the bottom
of my heart, which is unusual.
Glad to hear that.
I'm controlling your heart.
You're alive?
It's been a long time
since we've last met, Mr Akechi.
Thank you.
For being alive.
What you say is funny, Mr Detective.
She's the m*rder*r
who chopped your friend up,
but you thank her for being alive?
Even if it's a piece
of A5 rank fillet steak,
it'll be wasted if it's burnt.
But if it hasn't been grilled,
one can change the doneness.
Your metaphor makes no sense.
Whatever the reason is,
she should stand in the kitchen
to grill the steak again.
In the kitchen called life.
And
not here, at least.
You too.
And you too.
Well, the food will get cold.
Don't worry.
It isn't poisoned.
Aren't you sad as a chef?
I consider myself a cook.
When I serve people
the dishes I've made,
I need to say they aren't poisoned?
Ichigou, don't.
This
As a fellow cook,
this makes me so sad.
Bon appetit.
It's delicious.
Thank you.
It's delicious.
But it doesn't taste good.
The beef braised with wine
is tender
and the sauce is refined
but
I don't want it to be
my last supper.
You need to think about
who you're cooking for
when you cook,
or it won't taste good.
I always want to make my customers
happy when I cook.
But this
Compared to a dish
claimed to not be poisoned,
the deep fried Chikuwa
wrapped in seaweed that I make
tastes much, much better.
Have you got no pride as a chef?
Ichigou, that's enough.
If this is the last supper
for Mr Akechi and I
then please give me food
that tastes better
and is made with love!
Be quiet.
Ichigou!
Ichigou. Ichigou!
Wolfsbane's poison is amazing.
It takes effect quickly.
Wolfsbane?
Too late.
It's already too late.
Ichigo!
Look.
Everyone, look.
Just look!
This.
This is despair!
This is exactly what despair is!
Mr Detective
you should've come to your senses.
What has been fooling you
has just disappeared.
Despair?
Yes, feeling despair
will open your eyes.
Now
there's only despair in this place.
Yes.
That's right,
we're together with despair now.
How does the main dish
of our last supper taste?
Indeed
until I met you
maybe I had lost hope in everything.
In myself
and everything in the world.
When I tried to be myself
every single thing in the world
always laughed at me
and turned their back on me.
They said I was weird,
that I was a weirdo.
But one day,
I met
something that
inspired me powerfully.
I met it.
It was the deep fried Chikuwa
wrapped in seaweed.
What?
Even that simple
modest food
can make me think
I'm glad I lived till this day.
That it's okay to live,
even for someone like me.
Living is eating.
When you eat,
it gives you hope to live.
The one who always used
all her strength to show me this
was her.
It's Ichigo Kobayashi,
without a "u"!
I'll make you deep fried Chikuwa
for your lunch tomorrow.
I'm Goro Akechi's assistant.
I love you!
But you k*lled this person.
Maria
what is this if not despair?
Yes.
Now you should know.
We're united
under the name of despair.
There's one more thing
you probably don't know.
Actually, in this place,
there's still hope left.
After all the evil things were
released from Pandora's opened box,
the one last thing that was left
at the bottom of the box
is hope.
What are you talking about?
What can be the hope left here?
It is
That's enough!
Mr Katono?
Maria and her accomplices!
Come out with your hands up!
t*rror1st group! Say your prayers!
Mr Katono, we'll be in trouble
if you do this right away!
Let's wait
for the special crime squad.
- The early bird gets the worm!
- That's not the point!
See? I got it right, didn't I?
The plump girl was acting too weird.
I was right to follow the girl.
Indeed,
but you've gone too far!
Isn't it written on the textbook
you studied on your desk?
It isn't written there!
"It isn't written there!"
Once more!
It isn't written there!
An unexpected development?
Hope?
You know
hope is the word
I hate most in the world.
They are all traitors.
Maria
Everyone here knows that.
We all learned that lesson,
that's why we're here!
Even you too.
You've just realised that, right?
Mr Detective,
Ms Maria is all we have.
Someone like me
actually shouldn't be alive.
I have no right to live.
All of you,
give up now and come out!
Even if you say so
In that case, I'll go there.
What?
Maria?
Ms Maria, what are you doing?
Okay
What do you want to do?
Maria!
Maria!
Ouch!
Takahashi
Chef!
Chef!
Ambulance! Call an ambulance!
Yes, sir!
Chef, it was you, right?
You swapped the syringe.
You
You know?
If it was wolfsbane's poison,
when it kills,
the victim's body would go numb,
and she'd feel nauseous.
But Ichigou didn't.
I knew right away
that it wasn't wolfsbane.
In the syringe you swapped,
it probably was what made her
temporarily unconscious,
like midazolam or diazepam.
When I realised that
I was grateful.
Because there was also hope here.
Thank you, Chef.
Not yet.
I haven't
finished
making tonight's dessert.
It's strawberry
mousse.
It's good.
No!
No!
No!
No!
No!
No
No!
Wait! Hey, don't go!
Get in!
Maria.
What are you going to do?
That day
when I jumped from here
I thought, "I don't mind dying."
But God saved my life.
If
God gives me another miracle
will you
love me?
Over here!
Here!
Over here!
Where's Mr Akechi?
Over there!
With Maria
Mr Akechi
Akechi isn't saying anything,
but Maria probably
jumped off the cliff.
Mr Akechi k*lled Maria.
Well
she could only do that.
Maria jumped off the cliff herself.
Her body
hasn't been found yet.
But her leg was injured,
so probably
You shot her, didn't you?
It's not funny.
Hey, Takahashi.
You shot her to protect me,
didn't you?
I will testify properly.
I promise I won't do anything
that'll harm your future career.
Mr Katono
You're on a career track,
and our positions will reverse
after two years.
I need to get you indebted to me
now. Indebted to me
Mr Katono!
Hey, Akechi.
You seem to be doing well.
Thanks for having me!
Mr Akechi confided in me alone
that he'd quit
being a private detective.
He approached me with another plan.
I've thought about it.
French cuisine bento
might be popular.
- Right?
- But
"Eiffel Tower Lunch, 5,000 yen,
Daily Special Triumph Arch Box,
12,000 yen,"
it's impossible!
It's the lowest rank
- that suits my palate.
- Rejected.
Rice ladies will love them
if I sell them.
Indeed
But no! No. Rejected.
In that case, we'll reduce
the cost of the side dishes.
But this won't match the terrine.
Since that time,
Mr Akechi hasn't said
anything about Maria.
Consider the cost more.
I've also made up my mind
not to talk about her again.
This won't work. I'll think again.
You'll go for a walk again?
Your timing is perfect.
Supper is almost ready.
Oh, thank you.
Coco is making an effort.
Maybe Coco's age is coming.
We're here.
Hello.
Oh, my. You've bought many things.
The things were very cheap. Right?
The Akane apples from Aomori
have arrived.
Oh, yeah?
Your grandfather must be happy too.
I planted butterbur and watercress
in the garden.
We can eat them next spring.
Wow, I'm looking forward to it.
In Aomori, we mix butterbur sprouts
with miso when we eat them.
Butterbur miso? It sounds delicious.
What a fancy supper.
Somehow it's a bit of this and that.
Because we all made
what we wanted to make.
Why not?
We don't always gather like this.
Not bad.
Thank you! Please come again.
Welcome back!
Well, I just can't come up with
a bento that costs under 3,000 yen.
Don't pull a long face.
I'm thinking about it seriously.
It can't be, right?
Welcome! They're delicious.
What is in the daily special?
This is our daily special.
I recommend the stir-fried pork
and lotus root with black vinegar.
"Maybe some people think
it's trivial,
but I just can't forgive
my boyfriend."
"Reply"
"In that case"
"Just k*ll him"
"I'm waiting for you to come"
"Maria's Room"
"This drama is fictional"
