Kyokou Suiri (Ss2) - Ep 5 (gọi tắt là “Suiri #63”)

We still haven't figured out Rikka's whereabouts? Witness statements come in occasionally, but there's absolutely nothing definitive. It's already mid-July, and it will be exactly one year since that person disappeared. I have issued a notice throughout the country and in Ayaka City to report sightings of that person if seen. Even if discovered, the report may not arrive immediately. He might also have chosen a less populated area and moved there, just like Ayaka City did. Would it be different if you stayed in one place for a long time? You two were fairly close, weren't you? Well, so-so. Although we've had conversations like this while I was at the mansion. Kotoko, what are you afraid of? Yes, that's right. A cup of hot tea, scary, isn't it? I hate that about you. What's wrong with this elegant beginning? I'm saying don't try to dodge a sincere question by clumsily borrowing someone else's fear. And then suddenly stop using the lower part It'll be a spoiler, won't it? There's no such thing as revealing the punchline in classical rakugo. Even if it's said to be something frightening, I can't think of anything. Aren't you scared of something like Quo, being a girl? I received advice about a big spider recently, but it wasn't scary at all, really. His legs were long, and his head looked as if it could easily be smashed with a fist. Then what about snakes? It's something I'm used to. Insects... You seem to be doing fine, though. I can't go to places like mountains or abandoned houses where monsters live because I'm afraid of insects. Then, what would make Crow dislike me? Ah, I'm already hated, aren't I? You're not disliked at all. Even so, if you stay together for a long time, there will surely be ups and downs. It's not something to be afraid of, is it? If that's the case, I wouldn't even feel scared of being abandoned by Crow. Ah, it's already pretty much discarded. That's not the same at all. First, with every possible means, such things can be managed however you want. Isn't that getting close to the mindset of a stalker? Living off me in my house, how dare you behave so shamelessly Because they've taken a liking to your parents That's exactly it. I don't understand what's appealing about a woman like that, even to a married couple. You can really say something like that to your lover's beloved cousin, huh? I know that if I tell you my fears, it won't end well. Then, Rika, what are you afraid of? You're the one I'm most afraid of, Kotoko-san. You're completely hated by Ricca, aren't you? Given the flow of the conversation, doesn't it ultimately become a statement expressing fondness toward me? Hey, buns are scary. I wonder what that person is doing right now. Hello, Sakuragawa-san Hello, Administrator-san. Are you all right? I forgot to take the tape from the mailbox in room 305. I'm sorry I didn't notice that it's been a week since Sakura-chan moved in. It's fine, really—letters never come anyway. Katsueki, ah, a new resident? Yes, they moved in last week. Rikka Sakuragawa here. My boyfriend is Mio Misumi. Nice to meet you Are you heading out now? Yes, to the racetrack Is it? That's surprising. I hope it hits. Thank you. Then, A beautiful person, aren't they? Yeah, but I'm loyal to Marumimi all the way. It doesn't seem like something Katseki would like. But he was just some guy with an odd, uneasy vibe, wasn't he? Hey, Katsueki, you don't mean to tell me that person's room is...? Ms. Sakuragawa Trying to save my child, that person Marumi Emergency Vehicle Ms. Sakuragawa Don't worry, it's fine. That injury... Especially No, that's absurd! The distance was unbelievable! Something you sometimes see in period dramas—getting cut and it doesn't faze them at all. That must have been what they called "peak hitting." Car's Peak This apartment has been entrusted to me by my uncle. There is a room where three suicides have occurred within the past year. What's commonly referred to as a "murder house" The one who finally secured入住 in Room 305 was It was that Sakuragawa-san. If it's four consecutive incidents, it must be a seriously problematic property, huh? Shouldn't we tell someone close to Sakuragawa about the accident? That's the person who moved in with just one bag. A bare-bones change of clothes—just the clothes on your back, having fled with nothing else. I just tried calling Uncle a moment ago. There was no guarantor, and it seems they couldn't reach any family or close relatives. He turned out to be a person with issues, just as he appeared. That's why I was able to rent a room with issues. Is that Sakuragawa's? Yeah, I just picked it up from the ground. Oh, you're right! Liar He seems to know a lot about horse racing, doesn't he? How much did you win? Um, birth, refund amount is 13,000 yen. The bet amount is 20,000 yen. 2.6 million yen!? No, did I make a mistake in my calculation? It's actually spot on—the kind of big jackpot you're talking about Ms. Sakuragawa I caused quite a disturbance during the day. Where is the hospital? I've been discharged; since everything turned out fine like this. So is that how it is? Oh, then I'm truly glad. It's a miracle that you're alive after such an accident. This is my gratitude. No, not like that Sakuragawa, this is a sure thing! Oh, you picked it up for me? Thank you so much. And yet the refund amount is enormous It's not anything particularly unusual. Then That Sakura-kawa-san If you like, would you like to drink together? I've heard that three people in a row have died by suicide, but I don't mind at all. On my part, there's also the convenience of saving effort. But hasn't anything changed? Things making noises in the middle of the night, like that There's a shadow appearing at the edge of my vision or something like that No, nothing But aren't you bothered by it? Old hags and such The man who initially died by suicide in that room was I heard they said there was a face in the ceiling. It would be rather pleasant if I could die just from that. And also so-called accident-prone properties It is generally something that can be reasonably explained. By the way, the reason the first man committed suicide was At first, he was a single man in his forties, but There's been a problem at work. I was on the verge of becoming neurotic. Then it's unrelated to the room So there was a reason for him to take his own life, then. And due to that suicide I need to lower the rent. It has become easier to accommodate occupants with special circumstances. Then the second one as well Didn't you have a reason enough to commit suicide? Yes, well, then The second person is a woman in her late twenties. From the man I was dating Something like being terribly discarded or treated badly I hear they came here because they were having trouble with work and finding a place to live. Still, they somehow managed to make a fresh start. They died by suicide about three months later. Without a doubt It was as if I had been drawn in by the lingering thoughts of the previous suicide victim. Right after it would have been discarded, originally Perhaps it wouldn't have been surprising if they had died by suicide. Still, I somehow managed to hold on. In the end, I couldn't recover from the pain of heartbreak. One day, I ended my life by suicide. That's just an extremely ordinary occurrence. But it won't work the same way for the third person. He was a man in his early thirties. This person also died by suicide three months after moving in. I have a steady job and a boyfriend. There was no apparent reason for the suicide. There was no one else either. However, when the police investigated it as a suspicious death, This man is the second person to have committed suicide, the woman I found out he was my former boyfriend. That woman was terribly abandoned. Yes, it's quite strange. In the room where my ex-girlfriend died It's impossible to just happen to move in there. That said I don't see any reason to intentionally move in. That's why the police initially also Could there be something hidden behind it? It seemed like they were looking into it. In the end, there was no suspicion of murder. Concluded it was an impulsive suicide. At the point when two people had died consecutively The bad rumors spread, though. It was the third person who made the decisive difference. If Sakura-chan isn't bothered, then it's fine. If there's even the slightest odd feeling Please feel free to say it without hesitation. Thank you for your kind concern. That one So why did Sakuragawa-san go into that room? It seems like the preparations for the move weren't properly made at all. That said You don't seem to be in financial trouble, though. my third cousin once removed on the mother's side I got caught by that naughty katana kid, you see. cousin Even if left alone, such things wouldn't... I had been optimistic, thinking the connection would surely be severed. It seems like our relationship is growing closer instead. This won't do. I tried to break them up with full seriousness, but Really? The bad kid with the tachi sword As if unwilling to part ways If my cousin becomes a decent human being It should be completely severed, so it should be possible to cut all ties. I tried my best, but... Always being obstructed by that kid every single time In the end, it turned out that I was the one who had to hide from the spider. A decent human being It has no deep meaning. Because that child is not normal. As for us, regarding that I only borrowed it temporarily for evacuation purposes. It would be troublesome if that kid finds out. It won't last long, I suppose. I haven't done anything that would touch upon the matter at all. Please rest assured. If we continue like this, that's exactly where we'll end up. I was treated terribly when that child dumped me. It would only end up making me unhappy. You must not understand it, I suppose. Because you're a bit slow-minded. I just want to get this fixed as soon as possible. You really cherish your cousin, don't you? It was supposed to be mine. What's wrong with you? It's so late already. I'm sorry to disturb you at night. It seems that Ito and that girl... It seems my whereabouts have become known. Suddenly, I will be disappearing. A small compensation fee for the inconvenience. Because I suddenly vanished That room might get a bad reputation again. No, but then again My sister and that child will be visiting here soon. The reason why suicide victims kept occurring in that room That child is just the right reasonable one. They will surely tell you. You'll be able to rent out your room with peace of mind from now on. Thank you for your kind attention. Take care! I hope things go well with your cousin. Is it because I have a good instinct? Did they successfully determine such a future? Did you manage to escape a little earlier? I'm sorry to trouble you on a holiday morning. My name is Kotoko Iwanaga. This is the cousin of Sakuragawa Tachibana. Sakuragawa Kyōsuke-san My lover as well. I was greatly helped by Mr. Tachibana. This child has trouble standing steadily. Have I been affected in some way? No, it's not a big deal. It was different from what I had heard from Sakuragawa-san. My cousin's boyfriend Such a doll-like young lady A humanoid creature—its blood truly flows. Moreover, Iwana is hairy now. It's far from being humanoid. Who has thick hair? That's certainly not true at all. Senior Kyurō also before Can't you make seaweed tea? Didn't you shorten it? I don't remember shortening it. I don't even know what kind of liquor that is to begin with. It's probably something that would tarnish my character. You don't know it Then let's try it tonight. This child really has a poor posture. Just what on earth are you looking for that person for? It didn't look like I was a bad person. That's exactly the kind of situation where one must absolutely keep a low profile. Isn't it you two who are doing it? We aren't trying to take Takehana-san and eat him either. If we leave that person free Something socially troublesome happens, you could say. Rather than anything else We might be the ones being pushed into a corner by Tachibana. As for Takahashi-san's future actions, Didn't you say something? Um It's probably better to forget what we were talking about. Even though you wanted to break us up Although they mentioned considering future measures here, I'm sorry, but I don't understand. Thanks to you staying in one place for a long time Today I was able to find it, but I wouldn't make the same mistake again, would I? It's really bothersome. Thank you very much today. If you remember anything about Takahashi-san, Please contact us here. Huh? If you have any other troubles, feel free to ask at any time Ah The immediate problem is Is this a self-owned property? Yes Please rest assured. Not spirits or curses or anything like that There are no strange things attached. If we don't allow people who are contemplating suicide to move in It won't happen again, I promise. But The first suicide victim was He was clearly someone who had every reason to do so. The second child is also mentally weak. He is also someone who might reasonably be expected to act this way. The reason suicides continued was It was also related to the low rent, among other factors. It was nothing more than an unfortunate coincidence. But the third one is That won't be enough. The former boyfriend of the second woman who died by suicide Why go to the trouble of renting this room in particular? You mean he committed suicide three months later? It's because the man couldn't help but check. Confirm If a lover I harshly discarded were to have committed suicide Even if the man is not held criminally liable under the law, You must have been criticized by those around you. You must have looked at me with suspicious eyes. Even if it is a breakup with legitimate reasons From the female side, excessive assumptions You might have felt you were treated in a terrible way. However, given the circumstances The majority of the causes of her death were It is a fact that it can appear to be present in men. Ordinarily minded individuals It will certainly be quite a challenge. Surely, unless one is exceptionally careless You will surely feel guilty. Then why is this room here? Isn't guilt likely to intensify even further? That's why the man couldn't help but check. Her death was not about me That there was a problem with the room she was living in. Out of guilt The man tried to find something onto which he could shift the responsibility. When that woman passed away Due to the consecutive suicides There must be something attached to the room. Perhaps that's the rumor that spread. There is a supernatural force at work in the room. Drive residents to suicide Suicides have been occurring consecutively in that room since ancient times. Hair of the deceased embedded in walls and ceilings, and so on. Such rumors tend to grow tails easily. It is also exaggerated. I've heard something similar myself. The man who heard it My ex-lover's suicide was the room's fault. Then maybe I can escape from that responsibility. To verify whether something spiritual actually appears in this room That's precisely why I deliberately moved in. I don't know whether the people around the man believe it or not. But once the person experiences it firsthand I can be certain that her suicide was not my fault. It will probably feel much more relieving. And if you can confirm that something is attached I had intended to leave the room right away. Confirmation Wouldn't it be less frightening to know that something like that actually exists? The spiritual entity attached to the room I think you can't do anything if you leave that place. But the guilt within my heart remains You are always with me, and there is no way to escape. What is scary varies from person to person. At the very least at that time For men Perhaps what frightened him more than guilt was the sense of sin. Then why did that man commit suicide? If you had intended to flee from the room immediately as soon as something attached itself to you, The reason for being driven to death It's the opposite. The room has nothing in it. Because no paranormal phenomena occurred even after three months I was driven to the brink of death. It wasn't the room's fault, even though there was nothing at all. It's my fault. It has become even more firmly decided. The guilt over it only grows stronger. The man finally lost his emotional refuge. He did not commit suicide because there was something abnormal in the room. Did he commit suicide because there were no abnormalities? The man's abnormality had not been present Was I so mentally exhausted that I didn't even have the mental energy to write? or dying without leaving any abnormalities behind I was driven to suicide by the spiritual force of my own room as well. It might have been an attempt to pretend. Even after my death, trying not to be blamed myself It's the final resistance, isn't it? Bad timing for passing away. But the uncomfortable feeling of the man's male relatives It might be somewhat alleviated as a result. After leading the woman to the brink of death I have a family member who died by suicide. a situation that can only be perceived as It must be terribly hard for those who are left behind. Making an escape route there It could also be interpreted as the final consideration. It was only because the person had lost all means of escape and had no choice but to die. Well, if you believe in spirits or yokai, then Japan, where nothing good ever comes of it. In the end, those two seemed to get along pretty well, didn't they? Yeah, especially my cousin I felt that you were treating Iwanaga-san with great care. But Iwana-ga-san You're slouching. Yeah Sakuragawa-san's cousin was taken away by that girl. Maybe it's just jealousy. My cousin is with Iwanaga-san, too. It didn't seem likely to turn out badly. I wonder. Even though it's clearly visible now, we don't know what lies ahead. Is the explanation regarding that accident property genuine? Now, from the limited information available, You can't hit the truth without preparation. The third man to commit suicide had quite a nerve. Even if his previous girlfriend had died, he wouldn't care at all I might have simply been happy to move in because the rent was cheap. Was forced to choose suicide after being deceived by someone Relatives and acquaintances consider it shameful. It might just be silence. What I presented does not contradict the facts. It's simply something that is the most easily accepted and leaves no unpleasant aftertaste. What was needed there was The person managing the apartment It was an explanation meant to dispel anxiety. I thought it might be so, but That's not irresponsible either. It is a fact that there is nothing in that room. There will be no possibility of future meetings. mostly in the room where Rikka lives There's no way there would be an example attached. Since you have the same constitution as your senior, From the perspective of those attending the meeting, it's absolutely terrifying—just the smell alone is unbearable. I'll run away even if you're following me. If that were the case, I would have received the report earlier at my end. I must stop Ricca quickly. But, Miss Rikka What did you call me over there? I'm turning her into a truly despicable woman. You fearless one, you I think this one's really troublesome. I do have my own fears, you know. For example Self-reflection is not good, is it? I'll become Ojān. Is it a rakugo fire drum? No wonder, Crow-senpai It's quite different from Rikka-san, isn't it? So, stop spreading smoke in the fake rakugo. That's not a trick or any kind of code, you know. I can't think of anything, even if you say so. It's better if there's at least one secret between men and women. It will work out fine. It's surely something that won't waver even in the face of the entire world A story meant for just the two of us Even tomorrow, which can be changed Don't change, please. It's fine just as it is. There's been no change at all. Because I'll always be by your side Do you believe in the best of love? I just felt it Illusive love I'll show it to you tonight Endless Illusive Love Feel it, my illusive love Here and now, I am I'll show it to you tonight Only for you Just for you, babe
