Hey! Over here!

Yes?

Get back to the station.

We've got a suspect.

At last you're here.

I'll explain the details later. Put this on.

You're the only one

who investigated the crime scene.

So once again...

My name is Shiga.

I head the Special Analysis Research Institute.

This is Kagura, our system developer.

He will now give us a report on Test Case 01 of

our new DNA Investigation System.

The serial child abduction-murder case

that happened in Ota and Koto wards.

A strand of hair thought to be

that of the assailant...

...was found on the plastic covering

the second of the child victims.

This is the result of analyzing the DNA.

Kagura.

DNA profiling suggests...

...the assailant is male, age 25-35,

blood type O, RH plus, 180 to 185 cm in height.

Slim, broad-shouldered, hands about 20 cm long.

Shoe size larger than 27, smaller than 27.5.

Pale skin.

Thin eyebrows and eyelashes.

Large mouth, thin lips.

Long jaw, prominent Adam's apple.

Probably light-brown eyes.

Very likely to be short-sighted.

No congenital diseases.

Based on the above results,

we have projected his face in this...

...DNA montage.

What you are looking at is the face of the serial killer.

"Large mouth, thin lips..."

"Long jaw, prominent Adam's apple."

Tokura, ask him to come with us.

Everyone else, be ready if he runs.

Alright.

In addition, from what we gathered about his DNA,

the killer is a third cousin to

this lady Ikue Yamashita of Koto ward.

You're Yuta Kuwabara?

He fled!

Just for your information,

...he's timid in nature and a coward.

Possesses strong self-preservation, but low endurance.

...thus he's easily panicky.

Halt!

Everyone please calm down!

Protect the children!

Keep away!

Keep away!

I'll stab you!

I'll stab you!

4 out of 7 on the anti-social scale.

Ouch!

You bastard!

You're under arrest.

Keep him down.

Let go!

Oh, and by the way...

...he has small nails.

His third toe is likely...

...to be longer than his big toe.

Excuse me, may I ask who you are?

This is a restricted area.

Could I see your ID?

What's your hurry?

You were supposed to come the day after

tomorrow for the tour to our research facilities.

Ikue Yamashita.

I checked her out.

She's clean, no past criminal records.

How did you obtain her DNA?

She underwent medical treatment

at a city hospital 3 months ago.

Don't tell me...

...you were using illegally obtained DNA.

That's premature.

What?

Well, since you're already here,

I'll give you the tour.

Please come inside.

Do you know why you're

in charge of the case this time?

No clue.

I recommended you.

Oh you did?

This is...

...our Main Analysis Lab.

Shiratori, can you get Detective Asama's data?

Yes.

High monoamine oxidase A activity based on

MAOA gene, so no anti-social tendencies.

Reacts well to situations.

Respects confidentiality.

Once something catches his attention,

he will not let it go.

Assistant Inspector Reiji Asama.

You're a naturally talented investigator.

Right.

Possesses sharp acumen, as his genes suggest.

He also realized the issue with our Test Case this time.

So you acknowledge that there is

a problem with your investigation procedures.

Of course I do.

But will you look at the results this time

and tell me what you think?

While all these young lives are taken away,

you failed to catch the killer even

after visiting the crime scenes.

And yet...

...we could find him so easily.

I appreciate your help with the arrest.

However, that doesn't change the fact

that your investigation was against the law.

Please rest assured.

Soon there will be no legal problems.

What?

A year from now,

the government is going to past the DNA Act,

mandating the control of every citizen's DNA.

DNA Act?

From now on, DNA will solve everything.

And the most comprehensive national DNA database...

We call it...

Platinum Data.

Please give blood.

This is Storage Unit 1.

At its largest capacity, it can store

up to 2.3 million DNA samples.

"Platinum Data"

They are here. I'll guide them.

Thank you for coming. It's up ahead on the right.

Mr. Asama from the NPA

Investigation Unit 1, now on 8th floor.

This hospital...

...has security cameras everywhere

It's like a prison.

You're right.

Mr Asama's coming in.

The witnesses are waiting.

Roger.

What the heck is this?

You're Mr. Asama?

I'm Hodaka from

Special Analysis Research Institute.

My team of specialists will be handling

the forensics for this case.

What's the situation?

We have two victims.

One shot in the head at close range.

The other shot in the chest area.

One rib was removed using a sharp object.

As I'm sure you're aware...

...this is the same method used in

other cases that occurred within the last month.

Our director should have some information

to fill you in on the victims.

You mean the victims are working for him?

Well, yes.

Chief Shiga is here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I was relieved to hear you're on the case, Mr. Asama.

Mr. Kagura thinks highly of you, after all.

How's Kagura?

Seems like he isn't feeling very well today.

He's probably in shock.

Saki Tateshina was his brilliant partner.

What does she mean by "partner"?

Check the security camera footage.

Yes, sir.

This is Dr. Minakami from the Psychiatry Department.

I'm the doctor in charge of Saki,

the younger sister of the Tateshinas.

She's an authority on DNA research and mental illness.

She also works with us as an advisor

in the aspect of DNA investigation.

I'm Asama.

Can you substitute Kagura and fill us in?

Yes, sir.

This month, these are the victims of

serial murder cases that happened in...

...Hachioji, Kita-Shinagawa and Senju-Shinbashi.

The same weird method, one rib taken away.

Must be the same killer this time.

And here is the DNA data for a suspect

recovered from three of the crime scenes.

However, no matches were found

in the DNA database we have.

No matches? What do you mean?

It means "NF".

"NOT FOUND", which means no person

found to match the description.

The killer hasn't submitted his DNA sample.

This is the 13th person.

We are calling this case NF13.

I've heard that all three victims were important members...

...of a group opposing the DNA Act.

How about the victims this time?

The only people who know of their existence are...

...those with knowledge of the DNA analysis system.

Dr. Minakami.

The basic concept behind DNA profiling...

...was created by Kagura of

Special Analysis Research Institute.

However, there were huge barriers to systematizing it.

First of all, without digitized DNA data

on which to base our profiling,

this system is meaningless.

And then, when the need arises in

the future, we have to be able...

...to search for and collate everyone's information.

That's where Saki Tateshina came into play.

Though Saki was autistic,

she possessed extraordinary capacities in certain fields.

Savant syndrome.

She demonstrated exceptional ability

in the field of Mathematics.
