Stolen Identity (2018) Movie Script

"Type text"
I have something to discuss
tonight about our future.
That's too obvious
I have a surprise for you tonight!
Don't ruin the surprise.
Should my declaration come
before drinks, or after?
What's that mean...?
I don't know...
I'm looking forward to seeing you tonight.
Back to work, naughty boy!
Is there a traffic jam?
I'm afraid so.
I'll get out here.
Keep the change. The door, please.
All services are temporarily cancelled.
Passengers all services are
cancelled due to a train accident.
- How long for?
- Can't say yet, sir.
Oh, no...
Keep the change. The door, please.
Give me a break!
A pay phone...
Where's a pay phone?
This can't be...
You have no change, moron!
What's the boss's number...?
I have no idea.
Hey, Gan! This is Tomita.
Is Mr. Tokunaga there?
Oh, no! He left?
We have to pitch an idea to an
important client but I lost my phone.
What?
Hello? Hello!
Damn.
What's he doing?
Excuse me.
- Sorry I'm late!
- Why didn't you answer, Tomita?
I left my phone in the taxi.
What?
But, I have the proposal.
So you should!
Come on, hurry!
You told the clients we'd be late?
My contacts are in my phone so...
You're telling me now?
I'm sorry...
Hey?
- You still here, Asami?
- Tomita hasn't read my texts.
Call him.
Maybe I should.
See you.
Hello, Tomita.
Is this Asami Inaba?
I know that because
your name's on the screen.
Can I ask why you have Tomita's phone?
I found it in the taxi.
I took it without thinking.
Should I drop it
off at the police station?
Can I ask where you are?
They really empathized
with your phone story!
Thanks to you we'll seal the deal.
You made the phone story funny!
We can use this act
for our next deal!
Yes!
This is Asami.
I know you lost your phone.
I contacted the man who found it.
He left it in a caf in Yokohama.
You must be busy so I'll get it.
You owe me big.
Well done, Asami.
Not bad...
I'm lucky today.
I'm off!
Already? Got a date?
Uh, yes.
Is it Asami Inaba, who used to temp here?
We keep tabs on the staff!
Give me a break.
She's a good catch!
Mr. Koyanagi had his eye on her.
Oh, he did...?
Morishita!
Yes, sir!
That's the Summer Triangle.
It spawned the folktale of the
Weaver girl and the Cowherd.
Vega in the Lyra constellation
is the Weaver girl...
Smartphones are our proxy, aren't they?
Proxy?
With all your photos and internet history
it reveals its owner's character.
You're right.
Also...
A smartphone can be a treasure trove.
How's that?
It's a secret.
There's a line from one of
my favorite movies.
If the Sun exploded we wouldn't
know it for 8 minutes.
What's that mean?
If the Sun exploded, the Solar System
would be destroyed
but the shockwave wouldn't reach
Earth for 8 minutes.
What would you want to do in
those 8 minutes, Asami?
I don't know.
I would be embracing you, Asami.
Asami, I love you.
Will you marry me?
He proposed at the planetarium! Not bad!
But why didn't you say, "Yes"?
You love Tomita.
Yes, I do.
He's an honest, hard-working man.
But...
Is it your family?
Yes.
My stepmom and I stopped talking
after Dad died 10 years ago.
You could take him to meet her.
It won't happen.
You need to move forward to be happy.
So they say!
Cut it out!
Oh my God, no way!
What?
Dropoff will have an extra concert!
- Tomita went to Mita college?
- Yes.
- He has media contacts?
- Yes.
- I'll ask if he can get tickets.
- Please!
Your hors d'oeuvres
and a mozzarella salad.
So elegant!
- Enjoy.
- Thank you.
Asami, here are the tickets.
Wow, thank you!
You really got them!
Kanako's your good friend after all.
Were they hard to get?
A college friend who works for
the concert's sponsor
contacted me on Socialbook out of the blue
while I was asking around.
"Accept Friend Request"
So I texted him about the tickets.
He knew about 2 cancellations.
So I booked them on the spot.
"Payment confirmed"
Done!
Amazing!
And also...
I installed a phone tracker app.
In case I lose my phone.
Just don't lose it!
OK.
I can install it for you, too.
OK, can you?
Your password?
OK... It's asami0709.
By the way, about the other day...
I just want to know how you feel.
Tomita, I love you.
I was happy you proposed!
But...
I need some more time.
Sure.
If that's what you want.
You took a photo?
- No.
- Oh?
Oh, really?
I told you about Dior.
So it's a shortcut.
Right.
"10 days ago"
Hello, Tomita.
Is this Asami Inaba?
I know that because your name's
on the screen.
Can I ask why you have Tomita's phone?
I found it in the taxi.
I took it without thinking.
Should I drop it off
at the police station?
Can I ask where you are?
I'm in Yokohama.
Would you mind if I came
to pick up the phone?
OK. I'll give you directions to a caf.
The staff will have it.
Thank you. I appreciate it.

Hello.
"I'm Asami Inaba. I'm supposed to
pick up a phone here."
Just a second.
Is this it?
Yes!
Thank you so much!
"Stolen Identity"
Detective, this way please.
- Morning, Sir!
- Lieutenant.
This woman was picking vegetables
and found it.
Good morning.
Detective Busujima, homicide.
This way.
The body was buried but
wild animals dug it up.
Cause of death?
She has multiple stab wounds
to her abdomen.
Her head was shaved.
Detective, we found another body.
What?
Over here.
Can we look?
Same modus operandi.
The same guy killed two...!
Let's hope it's only two.
Oh my God, it hurts!
What's on me?
What's this?
Haven't you ever seen a leech?
It's my first!
He's a rookie.
Something else is on me!
"Serial killer of women task force"
Tell us what conditions
the bodies were found in.
Yoneyama and Yasuda.
Yes, Sir.
I'm Yoneyama from homicide.
We excavated the site and found 5 bodies.
The victims' ages ranged from
teens to women in their 30s.
They were stabbed repeatedly
in the abdomen.
That appears to be the cause of death.
Captain Yasuda.
Yes, Sir.
I'm Yasuda from homicide.
The victims were naked
when they were buried.
They had no personal effects
to identify them.
A psychopath committed these
gruesome homicides.
It will shock the public.
If we don't solve this case
we'll lose their trust.
Arrest the offender at all costs.
Yes, sir!
Dismissed.
We'll use a dragnet.
Yes, sir.
I look forward to working with you,
Detective!
Sure.
You worked in IT before this?
Yes, I was a programmer.
Why change careers?
Cases like this have always intrigued me.
I see.
He randomly clipped his victims' hair.
Would that mean something?
Perhaps...
the killer targets women
with long black hair.
A traumatized killer
will stab many times...
Maybe.
- Let's make inquiries.
- Yes, sir!
"Awesome pasta salad"
Thanks. Let's eat.
- Can I post a photo of us?
- What?
Is that a problem?
I like my privacy.
The thing is, there's a guy I like.
Who is it?
Do you know Takei?
He was your senior at college.
He's a trader now.
- No, sorry.
- Oh?
I met him at a party.
He was with a colleague.
His name's Yamashita and
I think he likes me.
- Nice!
- Yeah.
We became SNS friends and he asked me out.
Oh, that's great!
You know how I post a lot of food photos...
I don't want him to think I'm on dates.
So you want a photo of us.
Asami, please!
OK, just one.
Thank you! I'll hide your face.
- Hope it works out.
- "Yes!"
This looks good.
Yum, it's fruity!
You don't have Socialbook?
I do but I hardly look at it.
Why not use it?
Post photos of you
and Tomita to deter girls!
But I hate posting.
Don't be antisocial! Do it now!
Come on!
Let me.
Great. I'll post it.
Done.
"Like"
Look! So many likes!
Amazing!
- They keep coming!
- Yeah!
"Masahito Tobe"
It's Tobe!
Now you're friends too?
"Accept request"
What's this?
Call me any time if you have cyber trouble!
That's funny!
"Yuya Takei"
He wants to be your friend!
See! You do know each other.
I'm using Socialbook again.
"Makoto Tomita"
How come?
Just being sociable.
Way to go.

Police. Let's talk...
Kagaya!
Die!
Dirty cop!
Get up!
You carry Mace?
I'm no fighter...
You!
5 women were killed in Tanzawa mountains.
You raped a woman 3 years ago.
You took her to a mountain in Tanzawa...
I didn't kill her!
Hands off me!
You must have run for a reason.
Your password?
You have a warrant?
You obstructed an officer.
Your hand.
This way.
The license plate.
You're predictable, street racer.
Tell me who these people are.
What's this?
Phone data from Ono's colleagues at
the used-auto shop.
I guess he got it when no one was around.
What for?
To make money.
How?
Let's say one of them
collects action figures.
Ono poses as a toy retailer
and becomes his Socialbook friend.
Then he texts him about
a premium figure for sale.
One that he got from a net auction.
"100,000 yen bid"
Then Ono sells it cheap to him.
But Ono loses money that way.
Cyber criminals gain a target's trust
so he has no idea that he's being scammed.
It's a small investment toward his ploy
and he soon recoups his investment.
How?
In that scenario...
Ono asks his target to pay online.
"Pay from the linked payment service."
Then he steals the
credit card number and PIN.
A while later, he buys expensive
products with the card to resell.
OK but do you think Ono's the killer?
His reading material, internet history
and credit card records
don't connect him to the case.
I'd say he's just a cracker.
A cracker?
Criminals who breach internet security.
No.
So there's nothing you can do.
Thanks for trying. Goodbye.
What is it?
It's my credit card.
Expensive unauthorized purchases were made.
Were you scammed?
Yes, so I called the card company
but they have to check
before they reimburse.
How much?
500,000 yen.
That much!
Who could've known my PIN?
"Asami's post: I saw the movie,
When Romance Ends!"
Remember me? Koyanagi, your
ex-colleague from Toko Electronics.
Your movie report made me want to see it.
I saw an Indian movie
but nobody danced in it!
- It was Indian!
- Really?
It was boring but it made me
want to eat curry.
So I did just that.

6 months ago
Satoko Ikegami, a Yokohama
call girl vanished.
We suspect that she was a victim after
talking to her agency.
There are questions.
She was the agency's most popular girl
but she sent a text to say she quit.
Is that strange for a prostitute?
They often disappear.
But she and her manager were dating.
It didn't make sense that she'd vanish.
Long, black hair...
I text Satoko every once in a while.
Does she call you?
Hardly ever...
I think she left me a
message a month ago...
Do you know where she is?
No.
She lives with a friend, I guess.
Where does her friend live?
I have no idea!
Can I listen to her message?
Go ahead.
"Message from Satoko"
Mom, how are you?
I deposited the money you asked for.
I'll call again.
Can we borrow this phone?
Mom, how are you?
I deposited the money you asked for.
I'll call again.
I deposited the money...
I deposited the money...
You're right. It's synthesized
from Satoko's actual voice.
- You sure?
- Yes.
It's easy for anyone
who's computer literate.
I see.
Does that confirm that Satoko was a victim?
Her killer made it look like she's alive.
Busujima here.
Get a warrant to access the GPS
signals from Satoko Ikegami's phone.
"Message"
"Noriko Ikegami"
Satoko, it's Mom.
The police were here. What did you do?
Keep me out of it, would you?
Please don't... Please...
Satoko Ikegami's DNA matched
that of one of the bodies.
But we failed to locate her phone.
Her mom called to warn her
that we'd visited.
The killer most likely
destroyed the phone.
There are no leads.
Right.
Inspector.
Yes?
The offender killed the victim and
posed as her to contact her family.
He probably did the same
to the other victims' families.
Can you expand?
The victims' hometowns
were probably far from the city.
Girls who'd lost contact with family
could disappear unnoticed.
Like Satoko Ikegami?
Yes, sir.
How confusing.
- It made no sense.
- I know.
There's a place I want to go.
Where?
Your parents'.
My home?
We can visit next weekend.
Didn't I explain that to you already?
You don't get along with your stepmom...
Would it bring back bad memories?
You're evasive about your teen years.
Stop it! It's really annoying!
I saw Ballad of War at the cinema.
Go see it and tell me your thoughts.
"Security alert"
An unauthorized login was made...?

Asami...
Minayo.
Minayo?
That's your third.
You sighed!
You still uncertain about taking him home?
Yes.
If he insists you can hire a new family.
There's a company that can arrange that.
- No way!
- I'm serious!
It was on TV.
Wow.
Asami, how about a movie next Sunday?
What's wrong?
A man keeps bugging me on Socialbook.
Gross! Who is he?
He's one of Tomita's colleagues.
I ignored his comments
but now he's hitting on me.
That's creepy.
You think so?
He might turn out to be a stalker.
You're scaring me!
You should talk to Tomita about him.
I can't come to the phone right now.
Leave your name and message after the tone.
Hello, this is Asami.
Can I see you later? Call me.
You owe me an explanation!
Why do you have that?
Someone sent it to me!
Who is she? What is she to you?
It's not like that.
I used to teach Chihiro.
You did?
When I was at college, I was a tutor.
And that photo was...
It was taken at her older sister's wedding.
Who else has it?
She does.
See! She's gloating
about how she loves you.
Why? How would she know your mail account?
I bet she...
Besides we haven't been in touch
since the wedding.
Really?
Hey, Neo! Show me Chihiro's texts.
There're no texts from Chihiro.
See?
About the other day...
Let's make up.
"Masahiko Tobe"
Beware!
"Watch out for cyber fraud
using malicious viruses."
Do not open any unfamiliar files.
If your phone is infected, contact me!
I might call because
I get many strange messages.
"Koyanagi"
Asami, how about that date?
Sorry I haven't replied.
I do not intend to go out with you.
Why drag me along on your date?
Yamashita wanted you to come.
- Yamashita!
- Hey!
And Takei!
Kana, how are you?
Hi! I didn't know you were coming.
Sea bass to die for.
It was incredible! With that sauce...
We have another table ready.
Thank you.
Go ahead, you two.
Are you sure?
- Come on then.
- OK.
You're smooth!
Thank you.
A loveseat, how nice!
It's a bit much.
Hey, we can see Rainbow Bridge!
- See?
- It is too!
I asked Yamashita to set us up tonight.
Because you ignore me, Asami.
It's been a while but you surprised me.
You were always pretty
but you're gorgeous now!
With the same beautiful long black hair.
You didn't even notice me back at college.
Only because you were always so aloof.
No one could have got past that!
So what do you do now?
I manage a natural gas
development in Qatar.
I'm so busy I've had
no time to find a wife.
You've always been busy.
So you didn't marry?
How about me? I'm eligible!
Is Minayo still on your mind?
Her suicide shocked me.
She and I had a history...
You used to live with Minayo?
Yes...
She told me how you two
had a lot in common.
You bonded because you both
had little to do with your families.
Why did she kill herself anyway?
I bet you know something.
Asami?
Asami?
She's OK.
Asami!
Hope she's OK.
Wait! What did I say?
That hurt! What's your problem?
How dare you...!
"No caller ID"
Hello?
Asami, it's me.
Tomita?
My phone's being held hostage.
I have to pay ransom to unlock it.
I've got to do something!
Mr. Tobe.
Mr. Tomita and Ms. Inaba?
I'm Urano from Cyber Basis.
Tobe's abroad on business
so I came instead.
Sorry to call so late...
It's fine.
- Thank you.
- No problem.
Well, can I look at your phone first?
Here, it's locked.
I have to pay 30,000 yen in 24 hours
or I'll lose my data.
So who's Tobe?
Kanako's friend.
I consulted him and he sent Mr. Urano.
Network security...
It's infected alright.
It's ransomware. It locks your phone
and demands ransom.
If you paid the ransom
your data's usually restored.
If they didn't restore it
the news would get around
and the scheme would fail.
A catch-22 situation.
I unlocked it. Check your data.
Oh, you're so quick!
Thank you.
Sure.
I better go, I have an early start.
I saw you at the station.
You got the last train!
I live close to you now.
Huh?
Guess who!
Excuse me...!
- Sorry I'm late, Mr. Tomita!
- Chihiro?
Thanks for the mail.
You finally asked me out!
- Wait...
- I love you, Mr. Tomita!
I'm sorry if I misled you but
there's a man I'm planning to marry.
I can't go out with you, Koyanagi.
I love you, Mr. Tomita!
"Care to join me for a drink?"
I didn't text you.
I'm feeling tipsy, Mr. Tomita.
Go home. I'll get a taxi.
How about your place?
I have a girlfriend.
I want to spend the night with you!
You're drunk. Let's go.
Come on.
Sorry, Chihiro. I have to go.
Asami!
Wait, listen to me!
Asami, you got it wrong.
It's not how it looked!
I didn't want to believe Koyanagi's mail.
Koyanagi?
He sent me a video of you and the girl!
I can't trust you anymore!
Well, what about you?
What's this?
- Why...?
- It was sent to me.
Who's he?
- A college friend...
- You kissed?
No! He forced me to!
You don't trust me but I should trust you?
I'm not so big.
A girl with long, black hair?
She might have suddenly
quit or disappeared.
There was one, right?
Who's that?
Mayu Miyamoto from Hakata.
It was months ago. She gave notice by text.
Do you have a photo?
Hold on.
Did she have any regular clients
who were strange?
Do you know anything?
One of her clients was creepy.
Mommy.
Mommy.
Mommy.
Apparently the creep called her, "Mommy."
Mommy.
Mommy...?
Right. One time he asked
to extend his session.
Mayu refused because she was booked.
He grabbed her hair and cut it off!
You creep!
Hello? Get me the hell out of here!
He compensated her
and we banned him.
Soon after that I lost touch with Mayu.
A police officer has
some questions for you.
OK.
Go on.
Mommy...
Mommy.
I hate you.
Why were you born?
It's your fault
my life's ruined!
Mommy, please don't cry.
What the hell?
You creep!

Takei...?
You've been badmouthing me online.
Can you stop it?
I shouldn't have hidden my marriage but
exposing me on Socialbook is malicious!
I didn't write anything.
What's on Socialbook?
Don't play innocent.
I really don't know!
Delete everything or
I'll talk to my lawyer.
- Kanako?
- Asami!
Yamashita just called me.
Get rid of that scandalous photo!
What's it of?
Someone posted it, not me!
What kind of photo is it?
Of you kissing Takei.
Plus comments about his adulterous affairs.
It's not me! I didn't do any of it!
Someone stole my password
and hijacked my account!
OK, calm down!
- What should I do?
- OK...
Contact Socialbook and
get them to erase you.
OK, I will.
Who is it?
Who's there?
I'm home.
Hi, Honey!

Why...?
This is too much!

Please!

Please don't kill me!

Mommy!
Mommy, I'm hungry!
Shut up!
Quit crying!
You remind me of that son of a bitch.
I wish I'd never had you!
No!
Why did you torment me?
I loved you so much.
I loved you so much, Mommy!
Die and rot in hell, bitch!
Ms. Inaba, your problems are solved.
What do you mean?
You said Tomita lost his phone a month ago.
Yes.
A cracker probably found it
and stole his data.
And accessed your Socialbook page.
So the man who found
the phone is doing this?
Yes. He locked Tomita's phone and
made you change your Socialbook password.
He's some hacker.
Would it be Koyanagi?
I couldn't answer that.
Why would anyone bother...?
I can think of two reasons.
One is for money.
Another is you, Ms. Inaba.
Me?
I guess he was interested in your photos.
He was attracted to you.
That's gross...
It is. Sorry.
But don't worry. I hijacked his page.
I put ransomware in his
account and phone number.
Through his IP address
I located him and called the police.
All your problems are solved.
Clear the area!
- Move!
- Don't push.
Upstairs.
Adachi worked at an Internet caf.
A tip-off revealed he was a cybercriminal.
The responding officer found Adachi dead.
Here.
He took poison...
Yes.
Probably cyanide.
Detective.
We found this during our search.
The victims' phones?
Probably.
I'll leave it to forensics.
Detective!
It's Mayu Miyamoto
and Satoko Ikegami.
We missed our chance!
Here.
You'll feel better.
Thank you. You saved me a lot of anguish.
I envy Tomita.
For going out with a beauty like you.
Stop kidding me.
Adachi was into minor pop singers...
He was a bit odd.
He didn't seem like a serial killer.
Can you show me his locker?
Nothing of note...
Detective.
Adachi wasn't the offender.
He was framed!
Bleached short hair...
By the way
your Socialbook password is
minayo0118.
Is that
your old roommate, Minayo Yamamoto?
How do you know?
I looked into your past and found her.
I know that you and Minayo had a secret.
You're drunk... I'll walk you home.
Can we trace who sent the tip-off?
It went through several overseas servers
so I need time.
Do it.
Rise and shine!
Don't worry. Your office
knows you're sick today.
What's going on?
Please don't!
You smell as nice as I expected.
You never thought you were a target!
Cry if you want! No one will hear you.
Wait...
You found Tomita's phone?
Sure.
That was me.
Hello?
Asami Inaba?
Thank you.
So...
you don't work for Tobe...
Of course not!
Well actually, Tobe is
one of my identities.
Koyanagi's texts and the video to Tomita...
Everything was from me!
Guess what will happen to you.
Are you going to... kill me?
I want to destroy idiots
who believe in love!
I'll crush any hope those hypocrites have.
It feels so good!
To kill someone crying
and begging for her life.
I'll do you a favor and end
your hypocritical life!
Hey, Neo! Call Tomita now!
"Makoto Tomita"
Please, don't!
Don't!
Are you kidding?
I wouldn't text your girlfriend!
She says you did...
It must be someone's prank.
It wasn't you?
I will marry the vice president's daughter.
You think I'd jeopardize that?
Look, I've got 2 accounts!
- Is this an imposter...?
- Yes!
He's the one who sent you the video!
See?
It wasn't me!
I'm sorry.
"Asami called"
Huh?
I'm unavailable right now.
Call again later.
Hello?
Hi, Kanako. This is Tomita speaking.
Is Asami there?
No. She called in sick.
Thanks.
I'll go dig a hole.
A hole...
Why?
To bury you.
Thank you very much, goodbye.
"Kanagawa Police"
Detective, we located him!
The last access point he used was
at a bar in this location.
It's safe to say that
the offender was here.
She has long hair!
Detective!
Run the ANPR plate search.
Asami?
Tomita!
Asami!
How did you know I was here?
You know your phone tracker app password?
I memorized it.
Why is she in Shizuoka?
Sorry I acted like a stalker.
But the phone was off...
The tracker showed me
your phone's last location.
So
Who's behind this?
Remember the man, Urano?
He's insane.
They have not sighted the suspect.
Roger that.
Over and out.
His car hasn't been detected by ALPR.
He's off the major roads?
Yes.
Is it left or right?
"Dreamland Amusement Park"
Right.
Turn right!
This way.
"Park Closed Permanently"
It's an amusement park!
Right. Let's go.
Oh, ouch...
Can you walk?
Yes...
Come on.
Asami, go! Run!
Tomita!
Tomita!
I knew you'd come!
When I checked your phone
I saw the app you had to track her phone.
I unlocked it. Check your data.
Tomita!
I'll reward you for getting this close.
I'll tell you the secret she kept from you!
A secret...
Don't!
Asami...
I'll tell him myself.
You sure you can?
Tomita.
The real Asami Inaba
died 5 years ago.
I had plastic surgery
to look like Asami Inaba.
My true identity is
Minayo Yamamoto.
Minayo!
- Sorry!
- You're late, Asami!
Besides our similar
backgrounds, Asami and I
just got along.
We'd lived together since college.
The pasta's ready!
"Stock prices"
It'll get soggy.
After she graduated
Asami got hooked on stock trading.
Asami!
I got the job I really wanted
Minayo!
But the company overworked us.
- Takei!
- It's been ages.
I was tired, feeling
disillusioned and hopeless.
And you?
Then I bumped into Takei,
who was a senior at college.
Cheers.
I was impressionable
so he came across as a person
who'd mastered the world.
But
what was I to him?
I was just one of many women.
If we keep dating
I'm afraid you'll get more hurt.
I think we should end it.
Minayo.
Asami...
Soon after Takei and I broke up
I found out I was pregnant.
Eventually
I had an abortion without his support.
I was devastated, body and soul.
But
things got even worse from there.
"Repossession notice"
Asami's stock made losses
and she used my ID
to borrow from loan sharks.
The debts inflated to
10 million yen in no time.
Asami!
What do you want me to do?
Creditors came every day.
And soon
they called my work to harass me.
Sorry.
Soon I had no choice but to quit my job.
We've been eating this for a week.
I want something decent.
We live like this because of you!
Give me my life back!
Give it back!
I just couldn't keep it in any longer.
I still regret it.
Huh?
Oh, it's Asami's phone...
"Minayo calling"
Hello?
I'm sorry, Minayo.
I really am.
You can have my life so forgive me.
Asami...?
Where are you?
Asami!
Asami?
Asami!
Right before she killed herself
Asami called the police
and pretended to be me
and told them her plan.
Her body
was so damaged that it was unrecognizable.
"Social Security ID - Minayo Yamamoto"
I decided to live as Asami Inaba.
Can you identify her
as Minayo Yamamoto?
Yes.
It's Minayo.
I just
couldn't take it anymore.
I wanted no debts so that
I could start anew.
I'm sorry.
Tomita...
I deceived you.
I'm sorry.
How did you know I was Minayo?
From the freckles on your back.
I saw them in a photo on Tomita's phone.
They're identical to Minayo's.
Takei had a photo of her.
But...
your life of deception ends tonight!
You can kill me but not him!
Asami!
I craved to see that expression!
Watch me batter your boyfriend to death!
Stop it!
Tomita!
Freeze! Police!
What?
Asami!
Drop it.
Let her go.
Your hands are shaking!
Asami!
I wish I didn't have you.
I know
your mother said that.
I wish I didn't have you!
Let go...!
Secure him!
You're under arrest!
We got him!
Tomita.
Go ahead.
I'm sorry.
How did you know he'd be here?
A hunch.
Right.
There it is!
Yes!
Identify yourself.
Who are you really?
As if you care.
Some of your victims
haven't been identified.
If you don't give us their names
their souls won't go to heaven!
- Their families...
- They don't care!
Their daughters' phones were on,
so they thought they were alive.
You asshole.
I won't explain anything.
I'll remain silent.
But...
you could tell me one thing.
How did you track me down?
You don't need to know.
I see.
You knew.
Because we're the same.
You wouldn't be injured
if we'd been quicker.
So... is this another interview?
No. You see...
We're done with Asami's phone
so I wanted to return it
but she can't be found.
She left her apartment and quit her job.
I figured you'd know her whereabouts.
I heard that you're in a relationship...
We haven't been in
contact since that night.
I...
She suffered because of me
and I had no idea.
I feel very inadequate.
It'd be better for her if I left her alone.
I think it's great!
How you care about her...
Have you seen them?
The photos of you on her phone.
No.
Whatever happened between you two
the way Asami feels about you
must be genuine.
I didn't know...
I'm sure
she kept them out of love.
A smartphone can be a treasure trove.
Comets leave stardust in their wake.
The meteors you see in the
Orion meteor shower
were produced by the famous Halley's Comet.
The Solar System would be destroyed
if the Sun exploded
but it would take 8 minutes.
What would you want to do
in those 8 minutes, Asami?
You're here?
I thought you might be here.
Your identity isn't important.
You were given a new life, Asami.
You should live it
as you wish.
I'm sure
that's what she would have wanted.
Let me be part of it.
Get married to me and change your surname.
This is my answer.
I want to
spend my life with you.
Asami.
Let's get new phones.
Yes.
Let's go.
Yu.
Yu?
Shit, I fell asleep.
- Planetariums make you sleepy.
- Yes.
- Let's eat something.
- OK.
What do you want?
Anything is fine.

I have something to discuss
tonight about our future.
That's too obvious
I have a surprise for you tonight!
Don't ruin the surprise.
Should my declaration come
before drinks, or after?
What's that mean...?
I don't know...
I'm looking forward to seeing you tonight.
Back to work, naughty boy!
Is there a traffic jam?
I'm afraid so.
I'll get out here.
Keep the change. The door, please.
All services are temporarily cancelled.
Passengers all services are
cancelled due to a train accident.
- How long for?
- Can't say yet, sir.
Oh, no...
Keep the change. The door, please.
Give me a break!
A pay phone...
Where's a pay phone?
This can't be...
You have no change, moron!
What's the boss's number...?
I have no idea.
Hey, Gan! This is Tomita.
Is Mr. Tokunaga there?
Oh, no! He left?
We have to pitch an idea to an
important client but I lost my phone.
What?
Hello? Hello!
Damn.
What's he doing?
Excuse me.
- Sorry I'm late!
- Why didn't you answer, Tomita?
I left my phone in the taxi.
What?
But, I have the proposal.
So you should!
Come on, hurry!
You told the clients we'd be late?
My contacts are in my phone so...
You're telling me now?
I'm sorry...
Hey?
- You still here, Asami?
- Tomita hasn't read my texts.
Call him.
Maybe I should.
See you.
Hello, Tomita.
Is this Asami Inaba?
I know that because
your name's on the screen.
Can I ask why you have Tomita's phone?
I found it in the taxi.
I took it without thinking.
Should I drop it
off at the police station?
Can I ask where you are?
They really empathized
with your phone story!
Thanks to you we'll seal the deal.
You made the phone story funny!
We can use this act
for our next deal!
Yes!
This is Asami.
I know you lost your phone.
I contacted the man who found it.
He left it in a caf in Yokohama.
You must be busy so I'll get it.
You owe me big.
Well done, Asami.
Not bad...
I'm lucky today.
I'm off!
Already? Got a date?
Uh, yes.
Is it Asami Inaba, who used to temp here?
We keep tabs on the staff!
Give me a break.
She's a good catch!
Mr. Koyanagi had his eye on her.
Oh, he did...?
Morishita!
Yes, sir!
That's the Summer Triangle.
It spawned the folktale of the
Weaver girl and the Cowherd.
Vega in the Lyra constellation
is the Weaver girl...
Smartphones are our proxy, aren't they?
Proxy?
With all your photos and internet history
it reveals its owner's character.
You're right.
Also...
A smartphone can be a treasure trove.
How's that?
It's a secret.
There's a line from one of
my favorite movies.
If the Sun exploded we wouldn't
know it for 8 minutes.
What's that mean?
If the Sun exploded, the Solar System
would be destroyed
but the shockwave wouldn't reach
Earth for 8 minutes.
What would you want to do in
those 8 minutes, Asami?
I don't know.
I would be embracing you, Asami.
Asami, I love you.
Will you marry me?
He proposed at the planetarium! Not bad!
But why didn't you say, "Yes"?
You love Tomita.
Yes, I do.
He's an honest, hard-working man.
But...
Is it your family?
Yes.
My stepmom and I stopped talking
after Dad died 10 years ago.
You could take him to meet her.
It won't happen.
You need to move forward to be happy.
So they say!
Cut it out!
Oh my God, no way!
What?
Dropoff will have an extra concert!
- Tomita went to Mita college?
- Yes.
- He has media contacts?
- Yes.
- I'll ask if he can get tickets.
- Please!
Your hors d'oeuvres
and a mozzarella salad.
So elegant!
- Enjoy.
- Thank you.
Asami, here are the tickets.
Wow, thank you!
You really got them!
Kanako's your good friend after all.
Were they hard to get?
A college friend who works for
the concert's sponsor
contacted me on Socialbook out of the blue
while I was asking around.
"Accept Friend Request"
So I texted him about the tickets.
He knew about 2 cancellations.
So I booked them on the spot.
"Payment confirmed"
Done!
Amazing!
And also...
I installed a phone tracker app.
In case I lose my phone.
Just don't lose it!
OK.
I can install it for you, too.
OK, can you?
Your password?
OK... It's asami0709.
By the way, about the other day...
I just want to know how you feel.
Tomita, I love you.
I was happy you proposed!
But...
I need some more time.
Sure.
If that's what you want.
You took a photo?
- No.
- Oh?
Oh, really?
I told you about Dior.
So it's a shortcut.
Right.
"10 days ago"
Hello, Tomita.
Is this Asami Inaba?
I know that because your name's
on the screen.
Can I ask why you have Tomita's phone?
I found it in the taxi.
I took it without thinking.
Should I drop it off
at the police station?
Can I ask where you are?
I'm in Yokohama.
Would you mind if I came
to pick up the phone?
OK. I'll give you directions to a caf.
The staff will have it.
Thank you. I appreciate it.

Thank you so much!
"Stolen Identity"
Detective, this way please.
- Morning, Sir!
- Lieutenant.
This woman was picking vegetables
and found it.
Good morning.
Detective Busujima, homicide.
This way.
The body was buried but
wild animals dug it up.
Cause of death?
She has multiple stab wounds
to her abdomen.
Her head was shaved.
Detective, we found another body.
What?
Over here.
Can we look?
Same modus operandi.
The same guy killed two...!
Let's hope it's only two.
Oh my God, it hurts!
What's on me?
What's this?
Haven't you ever seen a leech?
It's my first!
He's a rookie.
Something else is on me!
"Serial killer of women task force"
Tell us what conditions
the bodies were found in.
Yoneyama and Yasuda.
Yes, Sir.
I'm Yoneyama from homicide.
We excavated the site and found 5 bodies.
The victims' ages ranged from
teens to women in their 30s.
They were stabbed repeatedly
in the abdomen.
That appears to be the cause of death.
Captain Yasuda.
Yes, Sir.
I'm Yasuda from homicide.
The victims were naked
when they were buried.
They had no personal effects
to identify them.
A psychopath committed these
gruesome homicides.
It will shock the public.
If we don't solve this case
we'll lose their trust.
Arrest the offender at all costs.
Yes, sir!
Dismissed.
We'll use a dragnet.
Yes, sir.
I look forward to working with you,
Detective!
Sure.
You worked in IT before this?
Yes, I was a programmer.
Why change careers?
Cases like this have always intrigued me.
I see.
He randomly clipped his victims' hair.
Would that mean something?
Perhaps...
the killer targets women
with long black hair.
A traumatized killer
will stab many times...
Maybe.
- Let's make inquiries.
- Yes, sir!
"Awesome pasta salad"
Thanks. Let's eat.
- Can I post a photo of us?
- What?
Is that a problem?
I like my privacy.
The thing is, there's a guy I like.
Who is it?
Do you know Takei?
He was your senior at college.
He's a trader now.
- No, sorry.
- Oh?
I met him at a party.
He was with a colleague.
His name's Yamashita and
I think he likes me.
- Nice!
- Yeah.
We became SNS friends and he asked me out.
Oh, that's great!
You know how I post a lot of food photos...
I don't want him to think I'm on dates.
So you want a photo of us.
Asami, please!
OK, just one.
Thank you! I'll hide your face.
- Hope it works out.
- "Yes!"
This looks good.
Yum, it's fruity!
You don't have Socialbook?
I do but I hardly look at it.
Why not use it?
Post photos of you
and Tomita to deter girls!
But I hate posting.
Don't be antisocial! Do it now!
Come on!
Let me.
Great. I'll post it.
Done.
"Like"
Look! So many likes!
Amazing!
- They keep coming!
- Yeah!
"Masahito Tobe"
It's Tobe!
Now you're friends too?

That's funny!

You carry Mace?
I'm no fighter...
You!
5 women were killed in Tanzawa mountains.
You raped a woman 3 years ago.
You took her to a mountain in Tanzawa...
I didn't kill her!
Hands off me!
You must have run for a reason.
Your password?
You have a warrant?
You obstructed an officer.
Your hand.
This way.
The license plate.
You're predictable, street racer.
Tell me who these people are.
What's this?
Phone data from Ono's colleagues at
the used-auto shop.
I guess he got it when no one was around.
What for?
To make money.
How?
Let's say one of them
collects action figures.
Ono poses as a toy retailer
and becomes his Socialbook friend.
Then he texts him about
a premium figure for sale.
One that he got from a net auction.
"100,000 yen bid"
Then Ono sells it cheap to him.
But Ono loses money that way.
Cyber criminals gain a target's trust
so he has no idea that he's being scammed.
It's a small investment toward his ploy
and he soon recoups his investment.
How?
In that scenario...
Ono asks his target to pay online.
"Pay from the linked payment service."
Then he steals the
credit card number and PIN.
A while later, he buys expensive
products with the card to resell.
OK but do you think Ono's the killer?
His reading material, internet history
and credit card records
don't connect him to the case.
I'd say he's just a cracker.
A cracker?
Criminals who breach internet security.
No.
So there's nothing you can do.
Thanks for trying. Goodbye.
What is it?
It's my credit card.
Expensive unauthorized purchases were made.
Were you scammed?
Yes, so I called the card company
but they have to check
before they reimburse.
How much?
500,000 yen.
That much!
Who could've known my PIN?
"Asami's post: I saw the movie,
When Romance Ends!"
Remember me? Koyanagi, your
ex-colleague from Toko Electronics.
Your movie report made me want to see it.
I saw an Indian movie
but nobody danced in it!
- It was Indian!
- Really?
It was boring but it made me
want to eat curry.
So I did just that.

6 months ago
Satoko Ikegami, a Yokohama
call girl vanished.
We suspect that she was a victim after
talking to her agency.
There are questions.
She was the agency's most popular girl
but she sent a text to say she quit.
Is that strange for a prostitute?
They often disappear.
But she and her manager were dating.
It didn't make sense that she'd vanish.
Long, black hair...
I text Satoko every once in a while.
Does she call you?
Hardly ever...
I think she left me a
message a month ago...
Do you know where she is?
No.
She lives with a friend, I guess.
Where does her friend live?
I have no idea!
Can I listen to her message?
Go ahead.
"Message from Satoko"
Mom, how are you?
I deposited the money you asked for.
I'll call again.
Can we borrow this phone?
Mom, how are you?
I deposited the money you asked for.
I'll call again.
I deposited the money...
I deposited the money...
You're right. It's synthesized
from Satoko's actual voice.
- You sure?
- Yes.
It's easy for anyone
who's computer literate.
I see.
Does that confirm that Satoko was a victim?
Her killer made it look like she's alive.
Busujima here.
Get a warrant to access the GPS
signals from Satoko Ikegami's phone.
"Message"
"Noriko Ikegami"
Satoko, it's Mom.
The police were here. What did you do?
Keep me out of it, would you?
Please don't... Please...
Satoko Ikegami's DNA matched
that of one of the bodies.
But we failed to locate her phone.
Her mom called to warn her
that we'd visited.
The killer most likely
destroyed the phone.
There are no leads.
Right.
Inspector.
Yes?
The offender killed the victim and
posed as her to contact her family.
He probably did the same
to the other victims' families.
Can you expand?
The victims' hometowns
were probably far from the city.
Girls who'd lost contact with family
could disappear unnoticed.
Like Satoko Ikegami?
Yes, sir.
How confusing.
- It made no sense.
- I know.
There's a place I want to go.
Where?
Your parents'.
My home?
We can visit next weekend.
Didn't I explain that to you already?
You don't get along with your stepmom...
Would it bring back bad memories?
You're evasive about your teen years.
Stop it! It's really annoying!
I saw Ballad of War at the cinema.
Go see it and tell me your thoughts.

You sighed!
You still uncertain about taking him home?
Yes.
If he insists you can hire a new family.
There's a company that can arrange that.
- No way!
- I'm serious!
It was on TV.
Wow.
Asami, how about a movie next Sunday?
What's wrong?
A man keeps bugging me on Socialbook.
Gross! Who is he?
He's one of Tomita's colleagues.
I ignored his comments
but now he's hitting on me.
That's creepy.
You think so?
He might turn out to be a stalker.
You're scaring me!
You should talk to Tomita about him.
I can't come to the phone right now.
Leave your name and message after the tone.
Hello, this is Asami.
Can I see you later? Call me.
You owe me an explanation!
Why do you have that?
Someone sent it to me!
Who is she? What is she to you?
It's not like that.
I used to teach Chihiro.
You did?
When I was at college, I was a tutor.
And that photo was...
It was taken at her older sister's wedding.
Who else has it?
She does.
See! She's gloating
about how she loves you.
Why? How would she know your mail account?
I bet she...
Besides we haven't been in touch
since the wedding.
Really?
Hey, Neo! Show me Chihiro's texts.
There're no texts from Chihiro.
See?
About the other day...
Let's make up.
"Masahiko Tobe"
Beware!
"Watch out for cyber fraud

I might call because
I get many strange messages.
"Koyanagi"
Asami, how about that date?
Sorry I haven't replied.
I do not intend to go out with you.
Why drag me along on your date?
Yamashita wanted you to come.
- Yamashita!
- Hey!
And Takei!
Kana, how are you?
Hi! I didn't know you were coming.
Sea bass to die for.
It was incredible! With that sauce...
We have another table ready.
Thank you.
Go ahead, you two.
Are you sure?
- Come on then.
- OK.
You're smooth!
Thank you.
A loveseat, how nice!
It's a bit much.
Hey, we can see Rainbow Bridge!
- See?
- It is too!
I asked Yamashita to set us up tonight.
Because you ignore me, Asami.
It's been a while but you surprised me.
You were always pretty
but you're gorgeous now!
With the same beautiful long black hair.
You didn't even notice me back at college.
Only because you were always so aloof.
No one could have got past that!
So what do you do now?
I manage a natural gas
development in Qatar.
I'm so busy I've had
no time to find a wife.
You've always been busy.
So you didn't marry?
How about me? I'm eligible!
Is Minayo still on your mind?
Her suicide shocked me.
She and I had a history...
You used to live with Minayo?
Yes...
She told me how you two
had a lot in common.
You bonded because you both
had little to do with your families.
Why did she kill herself anyway?
I bet you know something.
Asami?
Asami?
She's OK.
Asami!
Hope she's OK.
Wait! What did I say?
That hurt! What's your problem?
How dare you...!
"No caller ID"
Hello?
Asami, it's me.
Tomita?
My phone's being held hostage.
I have to pay ransom to unlock it.
I've got to do something!
Mr. Tobe.
Mr. Tomita and Ms. Inaba?
I'm Urano from Cyber Basis.
Tobe's abroad on business
so I came instead.
Sorry to call so late...
It's fine.
- Thank you.
- No problem.
Well, can I look at your phone first?
Here, it's locked.
I have to pay 30,000 yen in 24 hours
or I'll lose my data.
So who's Tobe?
Kanako's friend.
I consulted him and he sent Mr. Urano.
Network security...
It's infected alright.
It's ransomware. It locks your phone
and demands ransom.
If you paid the ransom
your data's usually restored.
If they didn't restore it
the news would get around
and the scheme would fail.
A catch-22 situation.
I unlocked it. Check your data.
Oh, you're so quick!
Thank you.
Sure.
I better go, I have an early start.
I saw you at the station.
You got the last train!
I live close to you now.
Huh?
Guess who!
Excuse me...!
- Sorry I'm late, Mr. Tomita!
- Chihiro?
Thanks for the mail.
You finally asked me out!
- Wait...
- I love you, Mr. Tomita!
I'm sorry if I misled you but
there's a man I'm planning to marry.
I can't go out with you, Koyanagi.
I love you, Mr. Tomita!
"Care to join me for a drink?"
I didn't text you.
I'm feeling tipsy, Mr. Tomita.
Go home. I'll get a taxi.
How about your place?
I have a girlfriend.
I want to spend the night with you!
You're drunk. Let's go.
Come on.
Sorry, Chihiro. I have to go.
Asami!
Wait, listen to me!
Asami, you got it wrong.
It's not how it looked!
I didn't want to believe Koyanagi's mail.
Koyanagi?
He sent me a video of you and the girl!
I can't trust you anymore!
Well, what about you?
What's this?
- Why...?
- It was sent to me.
Who's he?
- A college friend...
- You kissed?
No! He forced me to!
You don't trust me but I should trust you?
I'm not so big.
A girl with long, black hair?
She might have suddenly
quit or disappeared.
There was one, right?
Who's that?
Mayu Miyamoto from Hakata.
It was months ago. She gave notice by text.
Do you have a photo?
Hold on.
Did she have any regular clients
who were strange?
Do you know anything?
One of her clients was creepy.
Mommy.
Mommy.
Mommy.
Apparently the creep called her, "Mommy."
Mommy.
Mommy...?
Right. One time he asked
to extend his session.
Mayu refused because she was booked.
He grabbed her hair and cut it off!
You creep!
Hello? Get me the hell out of here!
He compensated her
and we banned him.
Soon after that I lost touch with Mayu.
A police officer has
some questions for you.
OK.
Go on.
Mommy...
Mommy.
I hate you.
Why were you born?
It's your fault
my life's ruined!
Mommy, please don't cry.
What the hell?
You creep!

OK.

I'm not so big.
"Call Tomita"
"Sender unknown"
I have revealing photos of you.
I'm about to post them on Socialbook.
They're embarrassing.
I sent them to you, too.
These were
taken by Tomita...
"Invalid password"
"Invalid password"
Why can't I log in?
"No caller ID"
Hello?
You're mean, Asami.
Delete the photo on Socialbook!
Takei...?
You've been badmouthing me online.
Can you stop it?
I shouldn't have hidden my marriage but
exposing me on Socialbook is malicious!
I didn't write anything.
What's on Socialbook?
Don't play innocent.
I really don't know!
Delete everything or
I'll talk to my lawyer.
- Kanako?
- Asami!
Yamashita just called me.
Get rid of that scandalous photo!
What's it of?
Someone posted it, not me!
What kind of photo is it?
Of you kissing Takei.
Plus comments about his adulterous affairs.
It's not me! I didn't do any of it!
Someone stole my password
and hijacked my account!
OK, calm down!
- What should I do?
- OK...
Contact Socialbook and
get them to erase you.
OK, I will.
Who is it?
Who's there?
I'm home.
Hi, Honey!
"Your device has been locked."
"Pay 300,000 yen in 24 hours to unlock it."
Why...?
This is too much!
"2nd victim identified"
"Mayu Miyamoto, victim"
Please!
I won't tell anyone!
You can have all my money!
Please don't kill me!
Mommy!
Mommy!
Mommy, I'm hungry!
Shut up!
Quit crying!
You remind me of that son of a bitch.
I wish I'd never had you!
No!
Why did you torment me?
I loved you so much.
I loved you so much, Mommy!
Die and rot in hell, bitch!
Ms. Inaba, your problems are solved.
What do you mean?
You said Tomita lost his phone a month ago.
Yes.
A cracker probably found it
and stole his data.
And accessed your Socialbook page.
So the man who found
the phone is doing this?
Yes. He locked Tomita's phone and
made you change your Socialbook password.
He's some hacker.
Would it be Koyanagi?
I couldn't answer that.
Why would anyone bother...?
I can think of two reasons.
One is for money.
Another is you, Ms. Inaba.
Me?
I guess he was interested in your photos.
He was attracted to you.
That's gross...
It is. Sorry.
But don't worry. I hijacked his page.
I put ransomware in his
account and phone number.
Through his IP address
I located him and called the police.
All your problems are solved.
Clear the area!
- Move!
- Don't push.
Upstairs.
Adachi worked at an Internet caf.
A tip-off revealed he was a cybercriminal.
The responding officer found Adachi dead.
Here.
He took poison...
Yes.
Probably cyanide.
Detective.
We found this during our search.
The victims' phones?
Probably.
I'll leave it to forensics.
Detective!
It's Mayu Miyamoto
and Satoko Ikegami.
We missed our chance!
Here.
You'll feel better.
Thank you. You saved me a lot of anguish.
I envy Tomita.
For going out with a beauty like you.
Stop kidding me.
Adachi was into minor pop singers...
He was a bit odd.
He didn't seem like a serial killer.
Can you show me his locker?
Nothing of note...
Detective.
Adachi wasn't the offender.
He was framed!
Bleached short hair...
By the way
your Socialbook password is
minayo0118.
Is that
your old roommate, Minayo Yamamoto?
How do you know?
I looked into your past and found her.
I know that you and Minayo had a secret.
You're drunk... I'll walk you home.
Can we trace who sent the tip-off?
It went through several overseas servers
so I need time.
Do it.
Rise and shine!
Don't worry. Your office
knows you're sick today.
What's going on?
Please don't!
You smell as nice as I expected.
You never thought you were a target!
Cry if you want! No one will hear you.
Wait...
You found Tomita's phone?
Sure.
That was me.
Hello?
Asami Inaba?
Thank you.
So...
you don't work for Tobe...
Of course not!
Well actually, Tobe is
one of my identities.
Koyanagi's texts and the video to Tomita...
Everything was from me!
Guess what will happen to you.
Are you going to... kill me?
I want to destroy idiots
who believe in love!
I'll crush any hope those hypocrites have.
It feels so good!
To kill someone crying
and begging for her life.
I'll do you a favor and end
your hypocritical life!
Hey, Neo! Call Tomita now!
"Makoto Tomita"
Please, don't!
Don't!
Are you kidding?
I wouldn't text your girlfriend!
She says you did...
It must be someone's prank.
It wasn't you?
I will marry the vice president's daughter.
You think I'd jeopardize that?
Look, I've got 2 accounts!
- Is this an imposter...?
- Yes!
He's the one who sent you the video!
See?
It wasn't me!
I'm sorry.
"Asami called"
Huh?
I'm unavailable right now.
Call again later.
Hello?
Hi, Kanako. This is Tomita speaking.
Is Asami there?
No. She called in sick.
Thanks.
I'll go dig a hole.
A hole...
Why?
To bury you.
Thank you very much, goodbye.
"Kanagawa Police"
Detective, we located him!
The last access point he used was
at a bar in this location.
It's safe to say that
the offender was here.
She has long hair!
Detective!
Run the ANPR plate search.
Asami?
Tomita!
Asami!
How did you know I was here?
You know your phone tracker app password?
I memorized it.
Why is she in Shizuoka?
Sorry I acted like a stalker.
But the phone was off...
The tracker showed me
your phone's last location.
So
Who's behind this?
Remember the man, Urano?
He's insane.
They have not sighted the suspect.
Roger that.
Over and out.
His car hasn't been detected by ALPR.
He's off the major roads?
Yes.
Is it left or right?
"Dreamland Amusement Park"
Right.
Turn right!
This way.
"Park Closed Permanently"
It's an amusement park!
Right. Let's go.
Oh, ouch...
Can you walk?
Yes...
Come on.
Asami, go! Run!
Tomita!
Tomita!
I knew you'd come!
When I checked your phone
I saw the app you had to track her phone.
I unlocked it. Check your data.
Tomita!
I'll reward you for getting this close.
I'll tell you the secret she kept from you!
A secret...
Don't!
Asami...
I'll tell him myself.
You sure you can?
Tomita.
The real Asami Inaba
died 5 years ago.
I had plastic surgery
to look like Asami Inaba.
My true identity is
Minayo Yamamoto.
Minayo!
- Sorry!
- You're late, Asami!
Besides our similar
backgrounds, Asami and I
just got along.
We'd lived together since college.
The pasta's ready!
"Stock prices"
It'll get soggy.
After she graduated
Asami got hooked on stock trading.
Asami!
I got the job I really wanted
Minayo!
But the company overworked us.
- Takei!
- It's been ages.
I was tired, feeling
disillusioned and hopeless.
And you?
Then I bumped into Takei,
who was a senior at college.
Cheers.
I was impressionable
so he came across as a person
who'd mastered the world.
But
what was I to him?
I was just one of many women.
If we keep dating
I'm afraid you'll get more hurt.
I think we should end it.
Minayo.
Asami...
Soon after Takei and I broke up
I found out I was pregnant.
Eventually
I had an abortion without his support.
I was devastated, body and soul.
But
things got even worse from there.
"Repossession notice"
Asami's stock made losses
and she used my ID
to borrow from loan sharks.
The debts inflated to
10 million yen in no time.
Asami!
What do you want me to do?
Creditors came every day.
And soon
they called my work to harass me.
Sorry.
Soon I had no choice but to quit my job.
We've been eating this for a week.
I want something decent.
We live like this because of you!
Give me my life back!
Give it back!
I just couldn't keep it in any longer.
I still regret it.
Huh?
Oh, it's Asami's phone...
"Minayo calling"
Hello?
I'm sorry, Minayo.
I really am.
You can have my life so forgive me.
Asami...?
Where are you?
Asami!
Asami?
Asami!
Right before she killed herself
Asami called the police
and pretended to be me
and told them her plan.
Her body
was so damaged that it was unrecognizable.
"Social Security ID - Minayo Yamamoto"
I decided to live as Asami Inaba.
Can you identify her
as Minayo Yamamoto?
Yes.
It's Minayo.
I just
couldn't take it anymore.
I wanted no debts so that
I could start anew.
I'm sorry.
Tomita...
I deceived you.
I'm sorry.
How did you know I was Minayo?
From the freckles on your back.
I saw them in a photo on Tomita's phone.
They're identical to Minayo's.
Takei had a photo of her.
But...
your life of deception ends tonight!
You can kill me but not him!
Asami!
I craved to see that expression!
Watch me batter your boyfriend to death!
Stop it!
Tomita!
Freeze! Police!
What?
Asami!
Drop it.
Let her go.
Your hands are shaking!
Asami!
I wish I didn't have you.
I know
your mother said that.
I wish I didn't have you!
Let go...!
Secure him!
You're under arrest!
We got him!
Tomita.
Go ahead.
I'm sorry.
How did you know he'd be here?
A hunch.
Right.
There it is!
Yes!
Identify yourself.
Who are you really?
As if you care.
Some of your victims
haven't been identified.
If you don't give us their names
their souls won't go to heaven!
- Their families...
- They don't care!
Their daughters' phones were on,
so they thought they were alive.
You asshole.
I won't explain anything.
I'll remain silent.
But...
you could tell me one thing.
How did you track me down?
You don't need to know.
I see.
You knew.
Because we're the same.
You wouldn't be injured
if we'd been quicker.
So... is this another interview?
No. You see...
We're done with Asami's phone
so I wanted to return it
but she can't be found.
She left her apartment and quit her job.
I figured you'd know her whereabouts.
I heard that you're in a relationship...
We haven't been in
contact since that night.
I...
She suffered because of me
and I had no idea.
I feel very inadequate.
It'd be better for her if I left her alone.
I think it's great!
How you care about her...
Have you seen them?
The photos of you on her phone.
No.
Whatever happened between you two
the way Asami feels about you
must be genuine.
I didn't know...
I'm sure
she kept them out of love.
A smartphone can be a treasure trove.
Comets leave stardust in their wake.
The meteors you see in the
Orion meteor shower
were produced by the famous Halley's Comet.
The Solar System would be destroyed
if the Sun exploded
but it would take 8 minutes.
What would you want to do
in those 8 minutes, Asami?
You're here?
I thought you might be here.
Your identity isn't important.
You were given a new life, Asami.
You should live it
as you wish.
I'm sure
that's what she would have wanted.
Let me be part of it.
Get married to me and change your surname.
This is my answer.
I want to
spend my life with you.
Asami.
Let's get new phones.
Yes.
Let's go.
Yu.
Yu?
Shit, I fell asleep.
- Planetariums make you sleepy.
- Yes.
- Let's eat something.
- OK.
What do you want?
Anything is fine.
