What seems to be the problem, Ryuzaki?
What's wrong?
SILENCE
The corner of a page from this killer notebook has been ripped out.
Could someone still die if their name was written on that piece of paper?
Who knows?
I haven't used it that way, so I don't know.
So, do Shinigami only eat apples?
No.
But a Shinigami's organs are devolved. No, evolved,
so there's no need for us to eat.
Yagami...
You've finally been freed, but you barely leave the headquarters.
Even when Misa comes to visit, you only chat with her for a few minutes.
You're free to go outside and have a love life, you know.
We still haven't solved the Kira case.
I'm not in the mood for love.
Or are you trying to say that I'm being a nuisance by staying here?
No.
Right now, I'm in no position to be punishing criminals.
Misa, punish them for me.
Misa, let's make a new world together.
WANTED - SHINJUKU, TOKYO SHINTAROMARU MARUYAMADA (43)
Be careful
God is watching
Please hold my hand
In the dark alley
Even if I'm alone and far away
You'll always find me
You tell me everything you know
Even if I don't remember
You tell me
Many times
But what do I do
Once I know everything?
What's going on?
The murders of criminals have resumed?
There were sixteen just yesterday.
They were broadcast after Higuchi died.
That's thorough, isn't it?
I guess that means that Higuchi wasn't necessarily Kira.
No, we were positive that Higuchi was the one killing criminals
until we caught him.
So does that mean that another Kira has appeared?
Oh, why?
Damn it. Damn Kira.
Kira has appeared now. What's going on?
What is going on?
There's only Misa.
This happened as soon as Misa was freed, didn't it?
Ryuzaki, are you still going on about that?
Misa is not involved.
It happened as soon as Higuchi died.
You're right.
Well, if there is another notebook and someone is using it...
I'll catch him.
The Shinigami said it didn't know, but...
if someone could kill by writing a name on a clipping from the notebook...
It's not impossible.
But whoever writes a name in this notebook
has to write another name within thirteen days or they'll die.
Light Yagami and Misa Amane are alive.
Thirteen days. This is the only...
Ryuzaki, even if we catch the person who was writing in the notebook,
can we really convict and punish him as a serial killer?
Well, of course we can!
He wrote down countless names, knowing that people would die.
We should kill him if we don't want the notebook's existence to go public.
Killing him is harsh,
but I bet that's what our superiors would demand.
If he admits to using the book to kill people, he'd get the death penalty.
Or at least get a life sentence.
Something like that.
What are you thinking, Light Yagami?
If Misa is caught, you'll be caught, too.
So that's it!
You bastard!
Light Yagami is certain that I will save Misa's life.
So in order to save Misa,
I'll have to write Ryuzaki's real name in my notebook.
And if I kill Ryuzaki...
it will definitely affect Misa's lifespan, and I would die as well.
Light Yagami is making sure that everything goes his way.
What are you going to do, Rem?
I know that despite being a Shinigami,
you care deeply about Misa.
Misa's life has been halved, so there's no way you'd abandon her.
Think about Misa's happiness.
What are you doing there, Ryuzaki?
What are you doing, Ryuzaki?
Well, I'm not doing anything in particular, but...
The sound of bells...
Bells?
Yes.
The bells have been really noisy today.
I don't hear anything.
Really?
They've been ringing all day
and I can't help but feel curious.
Do you suppose it's a church? A wedding?
-Or, perhaps... -What are you talking about, Ryuzaki?
Don't say such silly things. Let's go back.
I'm sorry.
Everything I say is complete nonsense, so...
please don't believe any of it.
That's right, Ryuzaki.
Most of what you say is nonsense.
There would be no end if I took you seriously all the time.
I know that the best.
Yes, that's right, Light.
But it's true of both of us.
What do you mean?
Have you ever told the truth at any point in your entire life?
What are you talking about, Ryuzaki?
It's true, I lie once in a while.
But how many people spend their entire lives only telling the truth?
Humans aren't perfect.
Everyone lies.
Even so,
I've been careful not to tell lies that will hurt others.
That's my answer.
I thought you'd say that.
Let's go back. We're drenched.
Yeah.
Well, that was awful!
It's your fault. You were standing in that rain.
You're right. I'm sorry.
What are you doing, Ryuzaki?
I thought I'd help you,
since you're drying yourself off so enthusiastically.
You don't have to do that.
I can give you a massage, too.
It's the least I can do to atone for this.
I'm pretty good at it.
Do as you please.
All right.
Hey...
You'll get used to it.
You're still wet.
I'm sorry.
It's sad.
What is?
We'll soon be parting ways.
Yes?
All right. I'll come immediately.
Let's go, Light.
It seems it went well.
Oh, Ryuzaki! What's the meaning of this?
I heard you got approval from another country
to use the notebook for an execution!
Good job, Watari.
-Not at all. -I know it's sudden, but...
let's make arrangements to transport the notebook.
Yes.
Ryuzaki, what's the meaning of this?
It means that I'm going to test the notebook for real.
That's pointless! We don't have to do that at this point.
We already know that the notebook's power is real.
Besides, who's going to write the name?
Once you write in it,
you have to continue writing names every thirteen days forever!
The one who's going to write the name
is someone who will be executed within thirteen days.
If he's still alive after thirteen days,
we've made a deal to commute his execution.
But we can't sacrifice people's lives.
Just a little more.
If we clear this,
the case will be solved.
What's this?
A blackout?
Watari?
Watari!
Data deletion? What's the meaning of this?
I told Watari to erase all information
in the event that something happened to him.
If something happened?
Could it be...?
-Where's the Shinigami? -Come to think of it, I don't see it.
It's not here! What's the meaning of this?
Everyone, the Shiniga--
Ryuzaki! What's wrong?
Hey! Ryuzaki!
What's wrong? Get a hold of yourself!
-What happened? -What's going on?
Calm down, Light!
We're going to be killed!
Watari, Ryuzaki...
We're next!
Damn it!
Where are you, Shinigami? Come out!
Light!
You must know something! Come out!
Let's search as well.
Yes!
Mogi, please take care of him.
Yes.
Everyone, come here.
What is this?
Sand?
What's going on?
Whatever it is, whatever happened...
I will avenge Ryuzaki.
Solving this case will be our gift
to Watari and the other victims, to everyone.
Light.
That's right, Light.
Yeah, but... we're going to be killed.
Isn't that what this means?
Mr. Matsuda, if you're scared of dying, leave the investigation.
Only people who have chosen to risk their lives should be here.
That's right, but...
Light, don't talk like Ryuzaki.
Everyone in my way is gone.
I'm the god of the new world.
