Manhunt Page #2

---

Why should they?

When she was moving out, I happened

to see her new address on her luggage.

It said:
Noto Peninsula,

Makami village.

Makami village...

We have to arrest him

as soon as possible.

Or else we'll damage the Prosecutors'

Office and National Police's reputation.

I put my hopes in you.

The head of this operation will be

inspector of the main office, Yamura.

Yamura-kun.

I'm Yamura.

Morioka took Yen 500,000

from his bank account.

He thinks he has funded himself

a fleeing opportunity.

We can't trust anyone.

We have to arrest Morioka immediately

as we're running out of time

We have to capture him,

no matter what it takes.

October 13, 11 A.M . Oku-Noto,

Ishikawa Prefecture

Is anybody in here?

Is anybody in here?

Is this Mizusawa Keiko?

That's Tatsukotami's daughter

and her name is Kayo-chan.

Kayo?!...

Isn't her name Mizusawa Keiko?

No, 5 years ago she got married.

But her husband's name...

I heard he was a taxi driver in Tokyo.

So she and her husband

are living in Tokyo?

She came back yesterday.

I saw her at the bus stop.

What's her address?

Is anybody in here?

Is anybody in here?

Unbelievable...

Morioka committed murder?

Weird, but his fingerprints, not someone

elses were found at the murder scene.

Why did he have to kill Mizusawa Keiko,

I mean Yokomichi Kayo?

What's his motive?

Don't know.

But...

But what?

There are many whys in this case...

Why did Yokomichi change her name

to Mizusawa?

Why did she move to the peninsula?

Why did Morioka go to Kayo's place?

Why did he kill her?

We must capture Morioka as soon

as possible.

If he...

He is a former prosecutor.

Not only will the investigation

department be responsible,

but it will also lead

to political problems.

This is godsend for the opposition.

You know that.

You think so?

I don't like to talk about politics.

My job is capturing criminals;

and that's all there is to it.

Inspector!

They've sent us a photo

of Yokomichi's husband.

Look at it, please!

But... this is Terada Toshiaki.

Definitely him!

The one whose camera

was stolen.

Let me have a look.

Husband and wife with different

last names and both accusing Morioka...

- Where is he now

- Well,

we got information that Keiji

went home to Hokaido.

It's a town called Kounogi.

Sorry, can you tell we where

I can find Yokomichi-san's house?

It's right over there.

Excuse me...

Morioka!

Stop, Morioka!

Stop, Morioka!

Stop!

Stop, Morioka!

Morioka, stop or I shoot!

Morioka got away.

He got through the police cordon.

Now,

Yokomichi has also got away.

He was the first to disappear.

We can conclude that those who testified

against Morioka have vanished.

They also testified under false names,

which makes a conspiracy...

.. against Morioka probable.

But the circumstances in which she

was killed are against Morioka.

That's what made us to consider Morioka

is the main suspect.

But it's a mystery why the Yokomichis

tried to put the blame on Morioka.

- Hosoi-kun.

- Yes.

- Brief me on the Yokomichis.

- Yes.

They married in June Showa 45.

Before that,

they had been living together for a while.

A taxi driver,

Yokomichi was also

engaged in various businesses.

He started raising guinea pigs...

.. for a private pharmaceutical company.

For what purpose?

His guinea pigs are used

for dissection or pharmacy experiments.

His customers

are university labs or hospitals.

And labs of pharmaceutical companies.

Does it have

anything to do with Morioka?

Nothing practically, sir.

In spite of our efforts, we can't find

a link between Morioka and Yokomichi.

Alright, I got it.

I'll go to Hokkaido.

You guys will thoroughly investigate the

relationship between Morioka and Yokomichi

And,

I think Yokomichi will sneak into Tokyo.

When you find him, secure Yokomichi.

This punk is the key factor.

He got away!

Damn it!

We will be in trouble

if the police's searching party come here.

- Let's give it up for now.

- Okay.

They set me up and...

They even try to klll me.

Who are they?

Why do they have to target me?

If they are trying

to destroy my social life...

.. It must be linked with that case.

Prosecutor Morioka.

Talking about hot shots,

here's the prosecutor himself.

- Good evening!

- Good evening!

What have we got here?

Everything is clear here.

Nothing to think about.

Suicide all the way.

He jumped from the 7th floor restaurant.

There're lots of witnesses.

Asakura had called me earlier as he said

he had something to discuss with me.

Did he tell you about what

he wanted to talk to you?

He just said he wanted to discuss

about something,

but did not say about what.

He just, "pop" !, stood up,

ran to the other side of the room

and the jumped out of the window.

That really scared the people

in the room...

The only clear thing is that Asakura

committed suicide.

But what were his motives?

He didn't have any!

Maybe, but, still,

no one forced him to do it, isn't it so?

He wasn't on his own in the restaurant.

And I don't trust his partner.

Something's fishy...

Do you have any proof that

representative Asakura was blackmailed?

Or threatened?

No, it's only my assumption.

Then, this case is closed

because there's no proof of wrong doing.

And your assumptions are no reasons

for reopening it.

So,

don't bother anymore!

What the General Prosecutor said

awoke my curiosity.

That Sunday...

I went to a small Asakura restaurant

where Asakura's girlfriend worked.

As I found out, Yokomichi Kayo had

visited the restaurant a couple of times.

She might have got wind

of my interest in the place.

- It's that man!

- This is the man!

Yokomichi Keji, her husband,

he's alive and...

.. could shine some light on

this complicated case.

Help!

Someone, help me!

Help!

Help!

Save me!

Save me!

Help!

Welcome back!

- Call the horse-breeding society.

- Yes, sir.

They wanted to know

when I'm coming back.

- All right?

- Yes, sir.

Welcome back.

How's your savior feeling?

As soon as he woke up, he asked if

he could get something to eat.

I gave him something to eat

and then he dozed off again.

The doctor said that it's over fatigue.

I understand..

But what was he doing

in the mountains?

It seems that he got lost.

That was my luck...

What'd have happened to me,

hadn't he been there?...

I'm afraid to think about it...

Tell him I appreciate what he did.

Father...

Can I come In?

Come in.

Please, come in.

Oh, please...

I don't know the words to express...

.. my gratitude for you

saving my only daughter.

Please, don't!

I feel uncomfortable in your house.

I didn't want to trouble you, I'm sorry.

No, not at all!

Please, sit down.

Thank you.

I found your jacket and

gave it to him.

Thank you.

It's nothing! It didn't fit me anyway,

but it fits you very well.

Mayumi, have you asked

our guest's name?

Oh, no, I didn't.

My name is Maeda.

Mayumi,

I want to drink to Mr. Maeda's health.

Allright. You aren't allowed any,
