Quotes
-
Det. Murakami : You have to feel sorry for Yusa.
Det. Sato : Oh, no. Thinking like that won't get you anywhere as a cop. It's easy to develop delusions, chasing criminals all day. We can't forget the many sheep a lone wolf leaves wounded. Half those citations were capital cases. There's no help for a cop who doesn't believe he's protecting the masses. I say leave the psychoanalysis to the detective novels.
-
Det. Murakami : They say there's no such thing as a bad man. Only bad situations...
-
Det. Sato : Now, the hard part.
Det. Murakami : I'll get him.
Det. Sato : Don't you see anything but Honda? We can't put this crowd at risk. We have to assume he's armed. And a bullet's nothing like a foul ball. Got to get him away from the crowd.
Det. Murakami : But how?
Det. Sato : We mull it over. We've got five innings to go.
-
Det. Murakami : The way I imagine it...
Det. Sato : Imagining only complicates an investigation. Stick to the facts.
-
Det. Murakami : Get me her record.
Det. Ichikawa : No need. I know her down to the moles on her back.
-
Det. Murakami : Sato-san, do you think it was my Colt again?
Det. Sato : What the hell does it matter if it was?
