there are,Copy !req
15. there's a strong possibility
they're Japanese.Copy !req
16. Kira, I have a pretty good idea behind
your motive and why you're doing this.Copy !req
17. But what you're doing is...evil!Copy !req
18. W-Why that...!Copy !req
19. Try and kill me!Copy !req
20. - I am justice!
- What's going on?!Copy !req

HeadquartersCopy !req
30. All right then, let's start with
the tip-line reports first.Copy !req
31. Yes.Copy !req
32. Until now, there have been
3,029 responsesCopy !req
33. about the murders from
telephone calls, etc.Copy !req
34. Most of them are from
curious members of the public...Copy !req
35. But there are fourteen people
who say thatCopy !req
36. they either "know the killer"
or "have seen the killer."Copy !req
37. Each account was followed up
and recorded carefully.Copy !req
38. But no one had information that
hasn't already been released to the public.Copy !req
39. There are also 21 people
who claim they are Kira.Copy !req
40. We didn't want to rule out
any possibilities...Copy !req
41. So all 21 people
were put on record and filed.Copy !req
42. Okay.Copy !req
43. Next up: victims.Copy !req
44. Sir!Copy !req
45. Upon further investigation, we have
confirmed that informationCopy !req
46. of the heart attack victims was, in fact,Copy !req
47. publicly available in Japan
prior to their deaths.Copy !req
48. Also...Copy !req
49. Concerning L's request that we investigate
the times of death for each victim...Copy !req
50. We found they occurred between 4 p.m.
until 2 a.m. on weekdays Japan's time.Copy !req
51. 68% of them occurred between
8 p.m. and 12 midnight.Copy !req
52. Furthermore, we have
a great variation of timesCopy !req
53. on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.Copy !req
54. That is extremely interesting.Copy !req
55. Judging from those times of death...
the culprit may be a student.Copy !req
56. I have other grounds for this belief.Copy !req
57. Drawing from the fact that
the perpetrator is only killing criminals,Copy !req
58. he's probably driven by
his own idealistic sense of justice.Copy !req
59. He may even be trying
to become a god.Copy !req
60. You could say that he has
a very childish mentality.Copy !req
61. I can't believe that...Copy !req
62. This is just a mere possibility.Copy !req
63. But please get rid of the stereotype
that the culprit couldn't be a student.Copy !req
64. Considering various possibilities
is the shortest route to arresting Kira.Copy !req
65. Please continue
your investigative report.Copy !req
66. Y-Yes...Copy !req
67. Has anyone else noticed anything?Copy !req
68. Um, yes...Copy !req
69. What is it, Matsuda?Copy !req
70. Umm... I'm in no way saying this
to give credit to Kira's actions...Copy !req
71. but...for the past few days, worldwide...
and especially in Japan...Copy !req
72. the number of violent crimes more serious
than robbery has dropped drastically.Copy !req
73. Well...Copy !req
74. I suppose that's to be expected...Copy !req
75. Anything else?Copy !req
76. L, that about sums up
our investigative report for today.Copy !req
77. Thank you, everyone.
I feel as if we're closing in on the culprit.Copy !req
78. Still, I'd like to make another request.Copy !req
79. I want the teams investigating
the victims, news and internetCopy !req
80. to examine once moreCopy !req
81. how the victims' identities
were made public in Japan.Copy !req
82. I want to know if pictures of
the victims' faces were shown.Copy !req
83. I leave it to you.Copy !req
84. Chief...Copy !req
85. You seem very tired...Copy !req
86. Thanks...Copy !req
87. I've been pulling all-nighters lately.Copy !req
88. What I said about crimes
dropping drastically...Copy !req
89. Now that I think about it,
everyone knows already.Copy !req
90. I'm sorry.Copy !req
91. What are you talking about?Copy !req
92. Keep speaking the truth...Copy !req
93. Especially when it's about things people
hesitate to bring up.Copy !req
94. However, if you had gone
on to say that...Copy !req
95. we should commend Kira for admirably
reducing crime rates,Copy !req
96. now that might have been a problem.Copy !req
97. I-Impossible! Support that killer?Copy !req
98. I'm just kidding.Copy !req
99. Just as I expected, Light!Copy !req
100. Hey! Did you understand any
of that by yourself?Copy !req
101. Huh? Yeah, kind of...Copy !req
102. Oh, it seems like Dad's home.Copy !req
103. Welcome home, Dear.Copy !req
104. He's home early!Copy !req
105. Hey! At least figure out
the last problem by yourself.Copy !req
106. I will after dinner!Copy !req
107. Really...Copy !req
108. Helping your little sister
do her homework...Copy !req
109. you sure have confidence.Copy !req
110. Yeah.Copy !req
111. There's one thing that gives me
confidence to fight the policeCopy !req
112. if they move against me.Copy !req
113. Welcome home...Dad.Copy !req
114. Good to be home.Copy !req
115. Light, how are your studies?Copy !req
116. Hmm? They're okay.Copy !req
117. He's at the top of his grade as usual.Copy !req
118. Yes, my wonderful big brother!Copy !req
119. Yes, my wonderful son!Copy !req
120. Dad, you seem a bit tired.Copy !req
121. Yeah...Copy !req
122. I can't tell you any details,
but this current case is very difficult.Copy !req
123. I see...Copy !req
124. Your father is one of the police...Copy !req
125. That must be the reason why
you're so confident.Copy !req
126. Yeah.Copy !req
127. I can hack into my father's computer
from my own without leaving a trace.Copy !req
128. I can always keep track of
the investigative situation.Copy !req
129. Here it is.Copy !req
130. The police are beginning to
suspect that the culprit is a student.Copy !req
131. Light, doesn't that mean
you're in trouble?Copy !req
132. If the cause of death is written within
40 seconds of writing the person's name,Copy !req
133. it will happen.Copy !req
134. If the cause of death is not specified,Copy !req
135. the person will simply die
of a heart attack.Copy !req
136. After writing the cause of death,Copy !req
137. details of the death should be written
in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.Copy !req
138. Is that right, Ryuk?Copy !req
139. Yeah, so?Copy !req
140. In other words, if I write "heart attack"
as the cause of death,Copy !req
141. I can write down the circumstance
and time of death.Copy !req
142. Looks like I may be able to provide you
a little bit more entertainment, Ryuk.Copy !req

146. What?!Copy !req
147. T-There were another
23 heart attack victims yesterday?!Copy !req
148. Yes.Copy !req
149. The day before, there were
another 23 victims.Copy !req
150. One at every hour...Copy !req
151. The fact that this has continued for
two weekdays straight...Copy !req
152. Means our sketch of the culprit
has become doubtful.Copy !req
153. No, anyone could skip
school for two days...Copy !req
154. That's not it!Copy !req
155. It does appear less likely now
that the culprit's a student...Copy !req
156. But that's not the message Kira's trying
to send!Copy !req
157. Why one every hour?Copy !req
158. And why are all the victims
in prisons,Copy !req
159. where they can be easily be found?Copy !req
160. Kira is trying to say that...Copy !req
161. he can freely control...
the time of death.Copy !req
162. But something's not right...Copy !req
163. As soon as we began to suspect that
Kira was a student,Copy !req
164. the timing of the killings changed as
if to contradict our theory.Copy !req
165. Is it a coincidence?
No, the timing is too convenient...Copy !req
166. Does that mean that Kira knows
what the police know?Copy !req
167. This is obviously
a direct challenge from him!Copy !req
168. L is probably panicking by now.Copy !req
169. I still have fifty criminals left
especially for times like this.Copy !req
170. Oh...Copy !req
171. Now, L should be starting to suspect
someone involved with the police.Copy !req
172. Kira has found a way to obtain information
from the task force headquarters.Copy !req
173. I cannot ignore this fact.Copy !req
174. What is Kira's real objective?
What is he trying to do?Copy !req
175. But I don't get it.Copy !req
176. By getting rid of the student theory,Copy !req
177. aren't you at a bigger disadvantage if
L thinks you're connected to the police?Copy !req
178. My reason is...Copy !req
179. It's in order to find L
and finish him off.Copy !req
180. What do you mean?Copy !req
181. In human society, there are only
a few people who actually trust each other.Copy !req
182. That's true even among police.Copy !req
183. In particular, L and the police
don't trust each other at all.Copy !req
184. Could you trust someone
whose name and face you don't know?Copy !req
185. When L discovers that the findings
from the investigation were leaked...Copy !req
186. he's bound to search for leads
on me within the police force.Copy !req
187. When he does, it's only a matter of time
before the police get really mad.Copy !req
188. On the surface,Copy !req
189. L and the police are working
together to try to catch me.Copy !req
190. But in reality...Copy !req
191. L is investigating the police
and the police will start investigating L.Copy !req
192. I'm not the one who's
going to find L.Copy !req
193. The police will track him down.Copy !req
194. And I will eliminate him!Copy !req

197. Letter of

198. As you see, these are
our letters of resignation.Copy !req
199. Transfer us to a different case.Copy !req
200. If you can't, we will
quit the police force.Copy !req
201. B-But why?Copy !req
202. Why? Because we
value our lives, sir.Copy !req
203. By L's deduction,Copy !req
204. Kira can kill people indirectly
through supernatural powers, right?Copy !req
205. If I were Kira,Copy !req
206. I would try to kill anyone
who tried to catch me.Copy !req
207. That's because he'll be
executed if he gets caught.Copy !req
208. Earlier, in that media stunt,
L challenged Kira.Copy !req
209. "Try and kill me," he said.Copy !req
210. But L never showed
his face or revealed his name.Copy !req
211. Just recently, L ordered us
to find outCopy !req
212. if the victims' faces and names
were broadcast in Japan.Copy !req
213. That's right!Copy !req
214. All the victims were thoseCopy !req
215. whose faces were broadcast
to the Japanese public!Copy !req
216. We...Copy !req
217. unlike someone we know,Copy !req
218. we carry around our personal identification
as well as our photos in our police IDs.Copy !req
219. We don't hide our faces,
we're out in the open!Copy !req
220. We...Copy !req
221. could be killed at any time by Kira...Copy !req
222. This is why we wish to be
removed from our post.Copy !req
223. Excuse us.Copy !req
224. H-Hey!Copy !req
225. You!Copy !req
226. Wait a second!Copy !req
227. Here's the solution to this problem.Copy !req
228. Take x squared equals...large x.Copy !req
229. You can think of large x's
quadratic equation...Copy !req
230. as the multiple of two integers.Copy !req
231. We had the FBI come to Japan
four days ago.Copy !req
232. They are currently investigating
the police involved.Copy !req
233. This is the list, isn't it?Copy !req
234. Yes.Copy !req
235. There are 141 people within
the police force aloneCopy !req
236. who have access to classified
information on the Kira investigation.Copy !req
237. But one of the 141 people
or someone close to them...Copy !req
238. Kira is definitely among them!Copy !req

240. Light, you gotta second?Copy !req
241. Didn't I tell you not to talk to me
as much as possible when we're outside?Copy !req
242. How many times do I have to tell you?Copy !req
243. Well then, I'll just talk.Copy !req
244. Cover your ears if
you don't want to hear.Copy !req
245. I don't have anything
against you, Light.Copy !req
246. I think the notebook couldn't
have been picked upCopy !req
247. by a better person.Copy !req
248. And I have to stick around with you
until the notebook is finished or you are.Copy !req
249. But I'm not on your side or L's side.Copy !req
250. Ryuk, I knew that much already.Copy !req
251. That's why I'll never say
anything aboutCopy !req
252. whether what you're doing is
right or wrong.Copy !req
253. But I'm going to say this
as your roommate.Copy !req
254. What's wrong, Ryuk?Copy !req
255. Why are you telling me
this all of a sudden?Copy !req
256. This isn't like you.Copy !req
257. I'm going to tell you this,Copy !req
258. not because I'm an ally of Kira,
but because it's creeping me out...Copy !req
259. Get to the point already...Copy !req
260. Someone's been following
you all this time.Copy !req
261. He's been getting on my nerves.Copy !req
262. He can't see me, but...Copy !req
263. because I'm always hovering behind you,
I feel like I'm being watched.Copy !req
264. That's a problem.Copy !req
265. Ryuk, I'll be sure to finish him off.Copy !req
266. Who in the world could he be?Copy !req
267. Does that mean that L has
begun to suspect the police?Copy !req
268. He must need quite a large number
of people to investigate them.Copy !req
269. Even if he had
50 people investigating...Copy !req
270. there is no chance that
I'd be suspected of being Kira.Copy !req
271. I should only look like
a regular high school student.Copy !req
272. But, if I leave it alone for several months,
that possibility won't remain at zero.Copy !req
273. I must learn my tracker's name.Copy !req
274. When I find that out,
I can get rid of him...Copy !req
275. Light...Copy !req
276. I'll let you in on something good...Copy !req
277. There are two big differences
between...Copy !req
278. Shinigami and humans
who have a Death Note.Copy !req
279. Do you know why Shinigami have
to write peoples' names in the Death Note?Copy !req
280. Why would I know that?Copy !req
281. You're really talkative today, Ryuk.Copy !req
282. It's because Shinigami receive
the human's remaining life span from them.Copy !req
283. You get their remaining life span?Copy !req
284. Let's say that there's a person
who will live 'til 60 in the Human World.Copy !req
285. You write that he'll die
at forty in the Death Note.Copy !req
286. Sixty minus forty equals twenty.Copy !req
287. Those twenty years in the Human World
are added on to a Shinigami's life span.Copy !req
288. As long as we don't slack off,Copy !req
289. even if we're shot in the head
or stabbed in the heart with a knife,Copy !req
290. Shinigami will not die.Copy !req
291. But, no matter how many names
you write in the Death Note,Copy !req
292. your life span will not lengthen.Copy !req
293. That's the difference between Shinigami
and humans who have a Death Note.Copy !req
294. Hmm...Copy !req
295. To humans, that's very kind
of the Shinigami.Copy !req
296. That's kinda interesting.Copy !req
297. Our second difference is
of probably more interest to you.Copy !req
298. Instead of lengthening life,
it's about cutting it short.Copy !req
299. Cutting it short?Copy !req
300. When a Shinigami sees a person's face,
they know their name.Copy !req
301. Do you know why?Copy !req
302. In a Shinigami's eyes...Copy !req
303. a human's name and life span can
be seen above a person's head.Copy !req
304. Name...and life span?Copy !req
305. Of course, in my eyes,Copy !req
306. I can see your name and
life span right now.Copy !req
307. If I convert it to human time,
I'll know how many years it is.Copy !req
308. Of course, I wouldn't tell you even if
you stretched my mouth open...Copy !req
309. Even if my mouth is
stretched out as it is.Copy !req
310. Shinigami never have problems
knowing the names of the people they kill.Copy !req
311. They also know how much life
they're going to receive.Copy !req
312. Our eyes are different.Copy !req
313. That's the crucial difference
between you and me.Copy !req
314. Shinigami can also turn the eyes
of whoever picked up their Death NoteCopy !req
315. into Shinigami eyes.Copy !req
316. But only if a deal is made, one that's
been with us since ancient times.Copy !req
317. A deal?Copy !req
318. The price for a Shinigami's eyes...Copy !req
319. is half of that person's remaining life span.Copy !req
320. Half of my remaining life span...Copy !req
321. Yeah.Copy !req
322. In other words,Copy !req
323. if you were to live another 50 years,
you'll have 25 years.Copy !req
324. If it was one year more,
you'll have half a year.Copy !req
325. And since you're neither
Kira's ally nor L's,Copy !req
326. you won't tell me the name of someone
I want to kill, even if you see their name.Copy !req
327. In other words...
I can't get your help.Copy !req
328. Is that what you're trying to say?Copy !req
329. Yeah.Copy !req
330. It's also part of the Shinigami code.Copy !req
331. I'll say this once more.Copy !req
332. Give me half your remaining life
and I'll give you the Shinigami eyes.Copy !req
333. If I do that...
I'll know everyone's name.Copy !req
334. It means that it'll be easier
to use the Death Note.Copy !req
335. So...Copy !req
336. Light, what'll it be?Copy !req
337. I dreamed a dream that no one could see,Copy !req
338. I threw away everything that I didn't needCopy !req
339. I'm holding these feelings
that I can't give up in my heartCopy !req
340. Even if my feet fall victim
to the shackles of sacrificeCopy !req
341. In between reality and my idealCopy !req
342. I can't hold back the flooding impulsesCopy !req
343. Because I have a strong desire
to accomplishCopy !req
344. I'm not weak enough to believe
any of these negative perceptionsCopy !req
345. I'm a trickster who doesn't know solitudeCopy !req
346. Who knew Death Note would carry out
everything written in it so accurately?Copy !req
