The victim is Kuryu Yoichi, 58.
The suspect is Mogami Yukiko.
Put out a BOLO on the suspect for the attempted murder of Kuryu Yoichi.
She should still be close by. Do a thorough search!
Twisted Blood

Scientific Crime Investigation File
Oh, Hideki.
Wait a minute, please. Is there a need to go this far?
Please stay back. We do have a warrant.
Sera.
You don't have to worry. Leave it to Daddy from here.
Please take care of Sera.
They even searched your house?
As long as they have a warrant, I can't turn them away.
I'm surprised they were able to request a warrant on such short notice.
Those Public Security guys are sure well prepared.
Did Mogami-san really commit the crime?
If we only look at the circumstantial evidence.
What about the footage on the surveillance camera?
- They said It was cut off. - A premeditated murder, huh?
We found this in Mogami's room.
It's data on amok which is believed to be a joint research project with Kuryu.
It was updated just recently.
Didn't you know about this?
Kuryu and Mogami had been conducting dangerous research all this time.
The reason Bessho ran amok this time
is probably because he was the test subject of this research.
Am I wrong?
That can't be true.
In the past, Dr. Mogami ended up creating something terrible in her research.
Because of that, she left the scientific community.
I can't believe someone like that would get involved in another dangerous experiment.
Even when you know it's a dangerous thing, you can't help probing into it.
Isn't that the nature of a scientist?
We're going to thoroughly investigate what the two were trying to do.
Along with...
why Mogami killed Kuryu.
Director, there's no way Dr. Mogami would kill someone.
This is some kind of a mistake.
Maybe so.
But that's not what the evidence is saying.
As long as the suspect is a member of the Countermeasures Office,
you guys cannot take part in this case.
Leave the murder case of Kuryu to Public Security and First Division.
Wait a minute, please.
Why is Public Security getting involved in this case to start out with?
Why did Public Security have their eye on Kuryu-san?
Never mind that. You just concentrate on your investigation.
You need to find out the reason why Bessho ran amok.
From wild bats found in areas with a high incidence of amok,
a common virus was discovered. We believe they're natural hosts.
Hasebe-san.
Did something happen to Mogami-san in the past?
Chief said she "ended up creating something terrible..."
That has nothing to do with what's going on now.
Chief, how did it go?
Dr. Mogami's fingerprints and DNA were detected on the knife found at the scene.
In addition, they found the doctor's bloodstained clothing
and her cell phone at a public restroom in Niisaki-cho.
Didn't she run away because she did it?
That was a quick turnaround.
Mogami-san disappeared as soon as Public Security found out about her relationship with Kuryu,
killed him over a dispute about the research or something, and fled.
Hey, be careful what you say.
I'm merely stating my opinion from an unbiased...
I can't believe the doctor would do such a thing.
I'm of the same opinion.
But the evidence is all there.
Then let us gather evidence too.
Evidence that the doctor didn't kill Kuryu-san.
But...
Aren't we going get removed from the investigation?
What we'll be removed from is just the Kuryu murder case.
We'll continue our investigation for the phenomenon of violent outburst.
We just have to prove Dr. Mogami's innocence in the process.
Doesn't that mean
we're going to continue investigating Kuryu's murder anyway?
Is that allowed?
It's closer to allowed than not.
In addition to Bessho, it appears Lyden Group
has been gathering and vaccinating similar former juvenile offenders.
Why were they gathering just former juvenile offenders.
I don't know.
I think all this might have been part of the experiment.
Currently, I've asked Manabe-san at Itabashi Chuo Station to look for other vaccinated people.
I hope we can find some evidence.
If you're not convinced, you don't have to come with us.
I'm just doing my job.
Doctor!
Did you bring the things I asked you to?
Yes.
Here's Bessho Sota's genetic analysis data and a laptop.
Thanks, Baba-chan.
Oh, Doctor.
I was asked by the police about you. Are you okay?
I'm fine. I haven't done anything wrong.
Just know that I believe in you.
Thanks, Baba-chan. I appreciate your help.
A different gene that isn't human's was inserted.
Kuryu Sensei.
What in the world did you get yourself into?
There's a total of 25 former juvenile offenders who were vaccinated by Kuryu.
Among them, the ones we were able to contact and got them come to the station
are those eight over there.
In regards to the other 17 people, 12 couldn't make it,
and as for the remaining 4, we are still trying to contact them.
They sure don't look like ex-criminals.
They all seem like they've adapted to society.
Let's hear what they have say first.
It's the same as Bessho's scar.
After you got the vaccine, did you feel sick or
felt some abnormality in your body?
No, nothing in particular.
Did you bring in the victim's brother/
Sorry, we haven't found him yet.
Haven't you been drinking too much water?
I feel somewhat nervous.
When you were getting vaccinated, was this woman there?
Hey, stop acting on your own.
Hasebe-san, it's okay.
I didn't see anyone like her.
- What was that? - It sounded like a scream.
Isn't it from Criminal Investigation Division?
He's not human.
Are you okay?
Help me.
Incredible.
It's the same thing that happened to Bessho.
As a result of the violent outburst, an abnormal amount of adrenaline was secreted,
causing cardiogenic shock.
So the violent behavior ends in a short period of time.
By the way, Okuda,
you're amazing! Is that your special skill?
Yes.
Okuda-san has mastered every kind of martial art.
Really? I couldn't get past first level in judo.
I couldn't do it. That's really something else.
Teach me that rolling sobat kick too.
Well, then learn by keeping your eye on my back at all times.
What the heck does that mean?
Then Manabe-san,
please have the body sent for autopsy and request a genetic analysis.
There's a possibility the 7 people at the station may turn violent too
so please ramp up their surveillance.
And contact the remaining 17 people ASAP.
Got it.
This is the second one.
That must mean the vaccine must have something to do with it after all.
When he came here,
he didn't seem to be such a violent boy.
No, I couldn't see him attacking anyone.
Couldn't see...
Mogami Yukiko, drop the knife.
He couldn't see her?
You're under arrest for the attempted murder of Kuryu Yoichi.
That's it.
What is it?
He shouldn't have been able to see her.
There's someone within the police organization that framed the doctor?
- Yes. - What's going on?
When we entered Kuryu-san's lab,
the doctor had her back towards us. What's more, it was dark inside.
Until the doctor turned around,
we shouldn't have been able to tell who was there.
But Tezuka was able to somehow recognize the doctor right away.
There is only one conclusion that can be drawn.
"Tezuka knew about the situation before he went in."
If the doctor was framed,
it's highly possible that the data Tezuka is claiming as evidence have been fabricated too.
But all that is just speculation.
Currently, I'm having Okuda-san stay close to Tezuka.
Okuda?
Okuda-san's physical ability is phenomenal.
I don't think she'd be outdone by him.
Well, fine.
But he's with Public Security.
Proceed with caution.
Thanks for your work.
Well, then...
Oh, the Public Security boss.
Stop your idle chatter. Let's go.
Why did you let Mogami Yukiko get away?
That's part of the calculation too.
In the near future, a bill for the Pax Project will be introduced.
We're running out of time.
While Mogami is on the run, we can fabricate the evidence.
It's only a matter of time before they're caught. They'll all be Mogami and Kuryu's crime.
It shouldn't affect your plan at all.
I see.
Go have fun.
What's the matter?
Isn't Yukki coming back anymore?
That's not true. She'll be back soon.
Really?
She'll be back. Daddy will take care of it.
- You promise? - Yes.
Then I'll see you later.
Have a good day.
Sensei, good morning.
Sera-chan, good morning.
For the incident where a woman stabbed her former colleague on the 7th
at Lyden Group's Mitaka Research Institute in Mitaka City and fled,
the Metropolitan Police Dept. has released an image of the woman.
Wanted for suspicion of murder is
the advisor for the Scientific Crime Countermeasures Office at MPD,
Mogami Yukiko, 30 years old.
Mogami is suspected of stabbing and killing
a male researcher who was her former colleague
at Lyden Group's Mitaka Research Institute in Mitaka City
on the 7th at around 7:30 pm.
Mogami's whereabouts is unknown after she broke through
a window at the scene and fled.
Mogami is small in stature at approximately 150cm tall.
In addition to tracking her whereabouts, MPD is asking for any information.
Welcome. Please sit wherever you like.
Welcome. May I take your order?
- Cafe au lait, please. - Certainly.
Come to the rooftop of building at Address 3.
May I take your order?
- Then hot coffee, please. - Certainly.
I've lost the target!
Kohhi.
Doctor.
I knew it was that guy who set me up.
You had realized it too?
Yeah. Because
how did he know that it was me right away when I had my back to him?
I realized right away and fled.
So, who is he?
Tezuka Rokuro, 48. He's a Public Security agent.
But I can't believe
he'd even bring up the research on amok.
How much of that is true?
It's true I was conducting a joint research with Kuryu Sensei when I was in the U.S.
But that research itself wasn't dangerous,
and it's absolutely not true that we were still working on it.
Then why were you targeted?
It could be that he didn't want me to see the results of Bessho's genetic analysis.
Doctor, I'm done with the analysis.
Let's see it.
I was attacked by a man with a big burn scar on his face.
After that, I snuck into the lab and got a hold of the analysis data.
As I suspected, genome editing had been done on Bessho.
Actually, yesterday at Itabashi Chuo Police Station,
there was an incident in which a man named Tsutsumi Daigo ran amok as well.
- Again? - Yes.
This is that man's genetic analysis data.
The exact same genome editing had been carried out.
They both received the same vaccination from Kuryu-san.
This series of violent outburst was Kuryu-san's...
But not all the subjects turned violent.
I think something must have mutated.
Are you saying that violence was not what Kuryu-san had intended?
Kuryu Sensei was always concerned about the horrific aspect of science.
There's no way he'd overlook the side effect that can cause violent outbursts.
Was he murdered by someone because he was about to publicize that...
Being that Public Security, Lyden Group, and Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare are involved,
some kind of big conspiracy may be hidden.
I'll never forgive those guys.
You're under arrest for the attempted murder of Kuryu Yoichi.
They used Sensei and...
Kohhi, I have a favor to ask.
What can I do?
I want to check Kuryu Sensei's computer.
You mean the computer
in Lyden Group's lab?
Yes.
Security is tight, but
all right. Let me see what we can do.
Also, will you check out the Pax Project too?
Pax Project?
I heard the man who abducted me talking.
We've removed the obstacle to the Pax Project.
"Pax"
The goddess of peace and order in Roman mythology.
This is totally illegal, isn't it?
Is it okay for police officers to be doing something like this?
It's okay.
When push comes to shove, the director will sweep the whole thing under the rug.
Wow, what an appalling organization.
But I can trust what you just said, right?
I don't want to go back to job hunting.
Sure, you'll be fine.
- Probably. - Probably?
Most likely.
Come on, there's no difference.
Hey, Doctor! I was seriously worried about you.
Sorry. But I'm fine.
You're here too?
- I'm only doing my job. - I see.
Thinking from an unbiased viewpoint,
I just decided that it's more likely that you're innocent.
That's good enough for me. Thanks, Okki.
O...O-O-O...Okki?
Did you just call me Okki?
Sounds like you're Okki now.
Huh? I won't answer to a weird nickname like that.
Okki, you're blushing a little.
- That's because it's hot... - Yes, yes.
Then Hasedon, Okki, let's begin.
Okay.
You like it, don't you?
Just as we planned,
break into Kuryu Sensei's lab and plug that USB into his computer.
Our success is riding on you guys.
Got it.
I'm Hasebe with MPD.
We will be reinvestigating Kuryu Yoichi's lab.
A reinvestigation? We weren't told in advance.
We're pressed for time.
Let's go.
Just a minute, please!
Oh, Senpai. Sorry to keep you waiting!
What's wrong?
Nothing.
I had a hard time getting information this time.
After all, even within the Ministry,
it's the super ultra top secret of all top secrets.
So, what did you find out?
Senpai, do you know about the MAOA gene?
Yeah. As I recall, it's the one known as the "warrior gene".
It's related to the violent nature of human beings.
and when that gene mutates, you're supposedly more likely to commit violent crimes.
There are several other genes that are associated with violence.
Lyden...
That organization isolated those, and through genome editing,
they were planning a criminal correctional program.
Don't tell me that's the...
Yes. That's the "Pax Project."
They study the genes of vicious criminals
and identify the mutation of genes that are likely to cause crime.
After that, they repair these genes by using CRISPR-Cas9.
They believe that should suppress the violent nature of the vicious criminals,
and prevent them from repeating the crime.
So that's why they named it "Pax" after the goddess of peace and order.
I expected this.
- That's the man. - What are you doing?
The record high rate of repeat offenders in Japan continues to rise.
This project was born to break out of that situation.
But this is a modern-day version of a lobotomy.
Wouldn't there be a problem with human rights violation?
Yes. That's precisely why
it was carried under utmost secrecy in partnership with the Ministry of Justice.
Ministry of Justice.
I'm pressed for time. Hurry up and open the door!
Like I said, please show me the warrant.
So why don't you know me?
Formerly the First Investigation Division's No. 1 in number of arrests.
Why don't you know this Hasebe who solved that case of
serial murders of children in Ota-ku!
- Hey. - Ouch!
- Eh? - The wound where I was shot last week...
This is called obstruction of justice!
No, no. You did it yourself...
- Wait, wait. - Hey, don't touch me!
- Let's calm down once! - Let's calm down, calm down.
Oh, I...
Ouch, ouch!
That hurt!
This won't work. The data has been erased.
Damn. Tezuka must've done it.
What? Does that mean we did all this for nothing?
Hey! Hurry up and get me to the infirmary.
- You have an infirmary here, don't you? - Yes, yes...
Just a minute.
Pax Project
It's a hidden folder.
Kuryu Sensei has always been very cautious.
Just hurry up, Doctor.
Eh?
It's nothing!
Please hurry.
Copying complete. Pull out immediately.
Got it.
For now, that's all I know.
What? Are you going already?
I'm sorry. I have one more important thing to do today.
I'm really sorry. So if you'll excuse me now.
Oh, the bill.
Thanks for treating me!
- See you later. - Sorry!
Important thing to do, huh?
Dressed like that...
Reinvestigation? Why now?
I'll be right there.
He didn't get in the lab but...
- Hasebe-san, we did it. - Yeah.
I must say you're amazing! You look good in the disguise too.
I could be a spy.
No, you can't! You're more childish than I thought.
You worked hard too, Hasebe-san.
Why are you talking down to me?
So, how long are you going to keep wearing that?
You can take off the wig.
No, it's dangerous since I'm driving.
- I'll take it off for you. - Please don't.
You like it, don't you?
First, this is data I got from a certain source.
I won't ask you how you got it.
What's this certain source?
- It's Alien Occult. - Alien Occult?
The Pax Project is a criminal correctional system that utilizes genome editing
that some members of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Ministry of Justice,
together with Diet members, had been working on for several years in secret.
The one who was chosen to develop that technology was...
Kuryu Yoichi, the leading authority in genome editing.
I heard from Doctor Mogami too
how Kuryu-san constantly talked about the necessity to know
both the wonderful aspect and the horrific aspect of new technology.
The reason he agreed to the Pax Project was probably because if it succeeds,
he believed it would be a wonderful technology to make the whole world a better place.
And the one who acted as the point for contact for Kuryu
was Lyden Group.
A lot of retirees from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Ministry of Justice are employed there.
If this project goes through,
Lyden Group will receive a huge windfall in public funds and will benefit greatly.
What turned out to be the first phase of this experiment
was the vaccination given one year ago to former juvenile offenders.
A total of 25 people were vaccinated.
Without disclosing the real purpose to them, they were secretly
injecting them with CRISPR-Cas9, not a vaccine.
Juvenile Law is applied to
juvenile offenders and they get reintegrated into society sooner than adults.
They were probably the perfect subjects for the Pax Project.
Kuryu's research data may have been stolen by the police.
Huh? All the data should have been erased.
Kuryu may have created a hidden folder.
No way.
I have a bad feeling about this.
That bastard Kuryu.
I can't believe he's still getting in my way even after death.
But this genome editing was found to be defective.
When certain conditions overlap,
the edited gene mutates and contrary to expectation, makes the person go amok.
That was the cause of the violent outburst that occurred to Bessho and Tsutsumi.
What are those specific conditions that cause the mutation?
We don't know that yet.
But Kuryu-san was the first to notice the defect,
and confronted Lyden Group's upper management with that fact.
This is part of the data that
Dr. Mogami obtained from Kuryu-san's computer.
...has a serious defect that can hurt...
...danger of violent outburst...
...the cause must be pursued immediately...
But an enormous amount of money was moving in this project.
What's more, the diet member who was in favor of this project
was planning to introduce a bill for the Pax Project.
Lyden Group thought there was no way they could stop it now, and
they decided to cover up this defect as a minor error.
And so, they killed Kuryu to keep his mouth shut, huh?
And this time, just like before,
they set up Doctor Mogami, who was getting closer to the truth, to be the culprit.
And the one who arranged for that was Tezuka from Public Security.
At an important time like this...
what's he doing.
But why would Tezuka do that?
When we looked into that,
we found out that Tezuka lost his daughter 3 years ago
when she got caught up in a robbery committed by a juvenile
that occurred in Ohta-ku, Kamata Minami.
So Tezuka himself was the bereaved family of a juvenile crime victim.
Yes. In this incident, including Tezuka's daughter,
two people died.
Since then, Tezuka
must have harbored a strong animosity towards juvenile offenders.
Even if he went along with the Pax Project that reforms criminals
and worked to cover up its defect,
it wouldn't be surprising.
So did you find out anything from tailing Tezuka?
This is Tezuka's one day movement yesterday.
At around 18:00, he stopped by RDG Royal Port Building,
and came out 30 minutes later, but
2 minutes before that, this man came out.
He's the senior manager at Lyden Group's Japan Branch, Sawada Katsuya.
Sawada... It's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?
But this alone would not be conclusive evidence.
Other than that, he didn't make any suspicious moves.
What's this "Cafe BingGo" that he stopped by in late afternoon?
It's a cafe geared towards young people that's become popular recently,
where you can eat Korean trendy sweets.
According to the owner, Tezuka is a regular customer who comes in every week.
Korean trendy sweets.
Tezuka at a place like that?
There are lots of older men who like sweets these day.
But still...
Well, I guess I do like baumkuchen too.
I didn't ask you.
Cafe geared towards young people.
In any case, unless we find evidence that Tezuka and Sawada are connected,
the doctor will be made out to be the culprit.
So, where is the doctor now?
Right now, Dr. Mogami is at...
I don't have to tell you why I'm here, do I?
From a hidden folder on Kuryu Sensei's computer,
a file was found.
Your name was on it.
The content of the file was research data and information regarding the Pax Project.
Why was Kuryu Sensei
creating a file with you name on it?
I also know that Body Hacker Japan is providing
a large amount of financial assistance to Lyden Group.
How deeply are you connected to this incident?
Not even a small talk?
Pax Project.
So that's what that was called, huh?
Masked Matchmaking Party
Meguro-ku, Tokyo Hotel Bolero 1st Floor
Restaurant Bonheur
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
- My name is Yamada Kaori. - Kaori-san.
- I work for a bank. - Oh, that's wonderful.
- My name is Jitsumori. - Jitsumori-san.
Pleased to meet you.
- Then, my turn, right? - Yes.
Written with characters for "three branches" "eki" from profit, and "to live",
my name is Saegusa Masuo. Pleased to meet you.
But I've never worn a mask like this before.
- It's exciting, isn't it? - I know, right?
This situation where we can't see everyone's face yet
allows us to focus on each other's internal aspect without any preconceived notions.
It's a nice event, isn't it?
- Isn't it wonderful? - Let's toast, shall we?
- Let's have a toast. - Nice to make your acquaintance.
Same here.
Are you ready?
Yes.
Begin.
By the way, how old do I look?
Eh?
You can't tell, can you? Since I have this thing on!
What's going on?
It's okay. Right?
Come on, walk, walk! Hey!
Hey, you!
Um~. Is this that showtime kind of thing?
Be quiet!
Don't take a single step.
Put all the cell phones you have in here.
Hurry up!
Hey!
Do you wanna die?
Urgent, urgent. From MPD to all stations.
A serious incident in progress.
The location is Direction No. 3. Naka-Meguro Precinct, Meguro 7-chome.
At Hotel Bolero's Restaurant Bonheur on the first floor,
a takeover incident has occurred.
According to the latest information, the culprit is one man.
Isn't this department going to be eliminated?
This is where you have to bear down.
We can customize human beings at will.
This should be called "the new human race" anymore.
What is this guy thinking?
I have a favor to ask.
Looks like this could be useful.
Let's catch them for sure.
This man and whoever is behind him.
