In the winter of 1983, Yuriko Tajima arrived in Sendai.
She had been to Sendai during her travels, and after leaving her husband this time, she went to the bar of Yasuda Sentai Miyamoto to sell liquor.
She is mysterious and feminine, and the guests think she is a woman with a story, so when she comes to the bar, the traffic becomes more and more.
She never opened her heart to anyone, And Yasuyo Miyamoto only knew that she had a ten-year-old son and a dutiful husband, and no one knew why she had left such a happy family.
More than ten years later, she finally met her lover again, Shunichi Nabe.
In 2001, Yuriko Tajima died of heart failure in her apartment.
Yasuyoshi Miyamoto contacted Shunichi Nabe on her mobile phone.
Shunichi Minibe was unable to attend Yuriko Tajima's funeral, but found the contact information for Yuriko Tajima's son, Kyoichiro Kaga, for Yashiro Miyamoto.
Kaga took his mother's ashes and went to the apartment where her mother had lived for eighteen years.
He wanted to learn from Shunichi Mibe about his mother's death.
In order to find his mother's former lover, Shunichi Kumabe, Kaga was transferred from the search class to the Nihonbashi Police Station.
After 16 years, Kaga has visited almost every corner of nihonbashi and found no trace of Shunichi Nabe.
The search class received an alarm from the residents of the apartments along the Arakawa River, and there was a foul-smelling liquid leaking down the apartment building.
The police found a decaying S body that had been dead for 20 days in the house.
The body was so badly damaged that it was impossible to distinguish the appearance and age, and the police preliminarily determined that the deceased was a woman and had been strangled.
By providing DNA from the family of the deceased who made the search request, the identification determined that the deceased's name was Michiko Oshitani, who was 40 years old.
She lives in Hikone City, Shiga Prefecture, and works as a salesperson for Melodia, a cleaning company located on lake Biwa.
According to the family of the deceased, Michiko Oshiya went to work normally on Friday, May 12, and began to be absent from work on May 15. On the 13th, she booked a hotel in Kayabacho, Tokyo, and stayed in it that night. She was probably killed on May 14.
The room where the body was found was the residence of a man named Mutsuo Echikawa, where he had lived for 9 years.
However, no items were found in the apartment that could prove The identity of Mutsuo Koshikawa, and there was no stock of food or daily necessities in the room.
The dreams and hopes of a living person for the future are not felt at all here, and Itsuo Echikawa is like a man who has the consciousness to accept death at any time, and his room is likened to a temporary tent for the wanderer, which seems more appropriate.
Surrounding residents reported that Mutsuo Echikawa had disappeared on May 15.
Matsumiya Suspects that there may be some correlation between the death of Michiko Oshitani and the murder of a wanderer by the Shin-Koiwa River.
The wanderer was also strangled to death before being burned, on May 16, a very close time. The scene of the crime occurred along the Arakawa River, and the distance between the two places was less than 5 kilometers.
The police officers who searched for Ichigo came to Michiko Oshiya's hometown and conducted a detailed investigation of her friends, colleagues, and relatives.
Michiko Oshiya's trip to Tokyo did not make any advance plans, but only improvised.
Matsumiya Shuhei could only investigate all of Oshiya Michiko's sales customers with his search colleagues.
3 days have passed, and they have not received any useful information from this investigation.
On May 12, Michiko Oshiya visited a nursing home in Hikone City because of her work.
In the nursing home, Matsumiya Shuhei meets the nameless lady in Room 201, who once met with Michiko Oshiya.
This elderly woman, who did not know her identity, had a broken body because of a dispute with the police and was admitted to a nursing home.
No one could tell her address and name from her mouth, she was no longer in good health, but no one had been able to kick her out of the nursing home.
When Michiko Oshiya saw her, she recognized her as Hiromi Asami's mother.
Hiromi Asami is a well-known stage choreographer in Tokyo.
Michiko Oshiya, who loves stage dramas, wants to take this opportunity to renew her junior high school friendship with Hiromi Asai, so she takes a leave of absence to come to Tokyo.
Atsuko Asakai is 65 years old and now lives in a nursing home.
Her daughter, Hiromi Asakai, 40, was born in Hikone City and now works as a stage choreographer in Meijiza, Hamamachi, Tokyo.
Matsumiya Shuhei and a colleague in the search class inquired about Hiromi Asai and Michiko Oshiya about their meeting.
When Michiko Oshiya offered to let Hiromi Asakai take back her mother, Hiromi Asakai rejected her offer.
She cannot forgive her mother, Atsuko Asakai, for abandoning her and her father when she was in junior high school and running away from home.
Twenty-six years ago, Atsuko Asakai not only stole all of her husband's money, but also borrowed usurious loans with his seal, all for the sake of the men she was out there offering.
Hiromi Asakai hated her mother, who ruined her and her father's life.
Her father died by suicide because she could not repay the money she owed, and Hiromi Asai was sent to a local welfare home because of her young age.
Michiko Oshiya was given a cold reception and had to leave Hiromi Asami's theater.
Matsumiya Shuhei sees that he can't get valid information from Hiromi Asakai and plans to leave. At this time, he found a photo of her and Kyoichiro Kaga, Matsumi's cousin, on Hiromi Asami's shelf.
Matsumiya Shuhei finds his cousin Kaga and asks him about his relationship with Hiromi Asai.
Kaga once hosted a kenjutsu class in Nihonbashi and, as a coach, taught some of the young actors brought by Hiromi Asakai.
That meeting, Hiromi Asaka inadvertently told Kaga about her experience of beating up her child.
This really made Kaga puzzled when she first met, and even if there was trauma, it would be covered up, but Hiromi Asakai told Kaga, who had just met, about her deep pain.
After verification by the Meijiza staff and theater personnel, they all proved that Hiromi Asai had been working in the theater for three days on the 13th, 14th, and 15th, and that she could not kill Michiko Oshiya in Mutsuo Echikawa's apartment.
Matsumiya Hadhira had always suspected that there was some connection between the two deaths, but DNA identification showed that Mutsuo Echikawa and Kawabe's charred S body were not the same person.
Kaga reminded his cousin that the suspect was likely to deliberately replace or drop the toothbrush, towel and other routine items often used for DNA identification in order to cover up the crime.
After being tested again, the little DNA on the sheets was consistent with the charred S body, and the charred S body was Mutsuo Koshikawa, the owner of the apartment where Oshitani Michiko S was located.
Hiromi Asami's new drama performance began, and Kaga came to the stage of her choreography as an audience member.
Meijiza was where Hiromi Asakai first worked as an actress, and now she is back here as a director.
The wall calendar left by Mutsuo Echikawa marks the names of different bridges near nihonbashi in each month.
In order to solve the puzzle, Matsumiya Shuhei came to one of the Tokiwayama Bridges, and happened to run into Kyoichiro Kaga, who was eating doll cake on the side of the road.
The markings on the Koshikawa mutsuo calendar are surprisingly consistent with those of Kaga's mother's lover, Shunichi Nabe.
After searching a lesson and identifying the notes on the two wall calendars, it was found that they were the same person, that is, Mutsuo Echikawa and Kaga's mother's lover, Shunichi Nabe, were the same person.
Kaga and Matsumiya Shuhei arrive at The home of Yasuyo Sendai Miyamoto, and they identify Miyamoto yasuyo with a portrait of Mutsuo Echikawa.
Yasuyo Miyamoto recognized at a glance the portrait of Kaga's mother's lover, Shunichi Nabe, and that portrait was none other than Mutsuo Echikawa.
When Kaga was ten years old, her mother, Yuriko Tajima, left Kaga and his father Takamasa Kaga with only a note.
Kaga ran on his feet and didn't find his mother, and from that day on, he hated his father, Takamasa Kaga.
He believes that it is precisely because his father is busy with work that his mother has lost the confidence to continue to carry on in this family.
The father had been blaming himself for his wife's death alone in the apartment, so he left him with the last words that he would not see Kaga when he was dying.
Kaga guessed that Shunichi Nabe must have had another name besides the name Mutsuo Echikawa.
He and Matsumiya Shuhei took a boat to re-walk near the Nihonbashi Bridge representing a different bridge each month.
The Nihonbashi in July has retained the 47-year-old tradition of the "Bridge Washing Festival", and nearly 2,000 people will come to Nihonbashi to participate in the bridge washing activity.
Yasuy Miyamoto once told Kaga that these bridges were code words for Kaga's mother, Yuriko Tajima, and Shunichi Nabe when they met, so is it possible that they found anything in the photographic photos of the "Bridge Wash Festival" in the past?
A search class found fingerprints from the relics of Kaga's mother, Yuriko Tajima, who often touched the station sign, and they found that Shunichi Mibe may have worked at the Ongawa Nuclear Power Plant.
Kaga searched the police file for all the photographs of the Nihonbashi wash bridge and finally saw a figure he was familiar with, Hiromi Asami.
Because of her beauty in junior high school, Hiromi Asai was often bullied by her classmates except for her friend Michiko Oshiya.
Asahi Atsuko runs away from home, and Asahi Hiromi's home often has underworld people frequently coming and going, and the students naturally reject Asakai Hiromi.
At that time, the only forty-year-old men who appeared next to Hiromi Asakai and matched The only man who matched The age of Shunichi Nabe was their teacher, Naemura.
Naemura took extra care of Hiromi Asakai, and finally broke through the teacher-student relationship with her and became a lover.
However, no matter how the photos of Miao Village look, they do not match the portrait of Shunichi Nabe.
Kaga visits Kayoko Imai, Hmakura's ex-wife, and further establishes the extramarital relationship between Hmong and Hiromi Asahi.
The ruby cross necklace that Naemura mentioned by Imai Kayoko for her lover has always been worn around Asakai Hiromi's neck.
People who know Hiromi Asaka in Hikone City are rumored that her father committed suicide by jumping off a building because he could not repay his debts.
After investigation, Kaga found that the official place of death of Tadao Asakai was actually on the edge of a cliff in Noto, Ishikawa Prefecture.
Sixteen years ago, Kaga received a letter from Yasuyoshi Miyamoto to his apartment after his mother's death, and Yasuyoshi Miyamoto's address information was told to her by Shunichi Miyabe.
A few years ago, Kaga received an interview with a magazine about his kendo, and that was the time he met with Hiromi Asakai.
From this, it can be inferred that the kendo cooperation between Kaga and Hiromi Asai was not accidental.
His father, Takashi Kaga, had been looking forward to seeing Kaga's future life after his death.
Kaga guesses that the man hidden behind Hiromi Asakai is not her lover, but Tadao Asakai, who has been rumored to have committed suicide.
During kaga's conversation with Hiromi Asahi, noboriko Kanemori, who was traveling with her, went to Hiromi Asakai's bathroom and removed her hair from her comb.
According to Shunichi Mianbe's portrait, a search class revealed another name of Shunichi Nabe, "Kazutoshi Yokoyama", following the testimony of Mr. Nozawa, an old employee of the Onagawa Nuclear Power Plant.
Kazutoshi Yokoyama is from Nagoya Atsuta-ku and has had two marriages.
Hiromi Asakai noticed that Kaga had taken her hair, and took the Train from Tokyo Station to the Tokaido Shinkansen train to the Hikone City Sanatorium Asakai Atsuko.
No one knows what the mother and daughter talked about in the room, and when Hiromi Asakai left the room, Asakai Atsuko was paralyzed and unconscious.
The DNA identification results came out, and Shunichi Minabe and Hiromi Asaka had a parent-child relationship.
Twenty-six years ago, Atsuko Asakai left the Asakai family in a huge debt for the men she supported.
The debt collector injured Tadao Asakai and planned to sell the young Hiromi Asakai to Hall J to pay off the debt.
The father and daughter escaped overnight to Ishikawa Prefecture.
Tadao Asakai wants to protect his daughter, but he already has suicidal thoughts.
After they had dinner, Tadao Asakai rented a luxurious hotel for his daughter.
Hiromi Asai looked at her father's wallet, they had no money to pay for such a hotel.
She walked out of the house and into the blue van of Kazutoshi Yokoyama, the owner of the parking lot noodle shop, hoping to earn some living expenses for their father for the next few days by having a relationship with him.
The van door closed, and the smell of Kazutoshi Yokoyama's body awakened Hiromi Asami's consciousness.
In order to resist Yokoyama Kazutoshi, the delicate Hiromi inserted the chopsticks in the car into Yokoyama Kazutoshi's neck.
Tadao Asakai finds that his daughter is not in the room and runs out, and he sees Hiromi Asakai in the tunnel with blood on her hands.
Asakai Tadao finished disposing of Kazutoshi Yokoyama's corpse, made him put on his own clothes, ruined his appearance, and pushed him off a cliff.
Tadao Asakai will drive Kazutoshi Yokoyama's van to Fukushima to take up a post at the nuclear power plant as Kazutoshi Yokoyama.
Hiromi Asai returns to the hotel with her luggage, and the next day she will report the disappearance of her father, Tadao Asakai, and when the police find Kazutoshi Yokoyama, she will recognize him as her father.
Hiromi Asakai will be sent to a welfare home to be educated, and his father, Tadao Asakai, will continue to live in the world using Kazuo Yokoyama's identity to protect his daughter silently.
Hiromi Asakai became an excellent stage actress in Meijiza.
Father and daughter can only guard each other as strangers.
Tamura becomes Hiromi Asakai's boyfriend, who quits his job as a teacher and leaves his wife Kayoko Imai to accompany Hiromi Asakai to Tokyo.
For her acting career, Hiromi Asakai beat up the child in Tamura's belly.
Tamura also discovers the truth that Hiromi Asakai's father, Tadao Asakai, is still alive.
Tadao Asakai had no choice but to kill Tamura in the hotel, hide his identity again, and live a life of escape.
His meeting with Hiromi Asai became more secretive, and he could only meet once during the Nihonbashi "Bridge Washing Festival" event.
On May 14, Hiromi Asakai took the stage in Meijiza again as a director.
Michiko Oshiya also took advantage of Atsuko Asakai's affairs and sat in the audience of Meijiza.
Tadao Asakai wanted to witness his daughter's glorious moments, and he also came to Meijiza.
Michiko Oshiya immediately recognized Tadao Asakai in the audience.
After the performance, Michiko Oshiya met with Tadao Asakai, but she died in the apartment where Tadao Asami had been living.
Tadao Asami realizes that as long as he lives, his daughter Hiromi Asakai will be threatened by others.
In order to get rid of this dilemma of escape and murder, Asakai Tadao decided to set himself on fire in a tent by the river after saying goodbye to his daughter Hiromi Asakai.
Hiromi Asami once again saw in her father's eyes the desperate look in her father's eyes on the night of their escape.
Being burned by fire will not allow the police to find any appearance and fingerprints of Tadao Asami, but what a painful ending it is to burn him alive!
Her father, Tadao Asami, has been silently guarding her all her life for the sake of her daughter Hiromi Asami, and this time Hiromi wants to do everything he can to protect her father.
She walked into her father's tent and put her hands around his neck.
Tadao Asakai falls, and Hiromi Asakai ignites the gasoline on her father's body.
The stage is coming to an end, and the tragedy of Hiromi Asakai and her father is over.
Kaga received a letter from Tadao Asami to him.
Yuriko Tajima worked as a sake escort in Shinjuku when she was young, and her marriage to Takamasa Kaga has always been opposed by Takamasa's family.
The pressure of life and the rejection of her relatives made her slowly suffer from depression.
When Kaga was in elementary school, one night Yuriko Tajima suddenly found herself holding a knife in her hand for no reason, and she was worried that she would one day kill her son out of control, so she left a note and ran away from home.
She worked at the Seven Bar in Sendai City for sixteen years, and until the moment of her death, she missed her son Kyoichiro Kaga.
After his mother's affairs were ascertained, Kaga left the Nihonbashi Police Station and reapplyed to return to the search class.
