(0.00 / 0 votes)This film was photographed...
in Tokyo, Yokohama
and the Japanese countryside.
The year is 1954.
This is a military supply train
American military personnel...
What's holding us up?
I don't know.
I'll take a look.
- Inspector Kita.
- Sorry, Mr. Ceram. No time for an interview now.
That train carried
American ammunition, didn't it?
Yes. I have already
notified Captain Hanson.
That's the story
I'd like to follow.
How the American army
and the Japanese police work together...
when American army
personnel is involved.
- Mind if I tag along?
- Perfectly all right.
in charge of the investigation.
had been killed in the robbery...
the Criminal Investigation Division
of the United States Military Police...
was called in for cooperation.
- Hello, Captain Hanson.
- Hello, Mr. Ceram.
The American sergeant is over here.
Hmm.
The engineer and the firemen and the two
other security guards were attacked.
The chain marks
- Chain marks?
- Yes.
- Are they dead?
- No, only the American sergeant.
Here.
The stolen equipment consisted of
five .50 caliber American machine guns...
and four boxes .50 caliber
ammunition belts,
five .30 caliber
American machine guns...
and four boxes .30 caliber
ammunition belts...
and, uh... two boxes
of smoke pots?
- Smoke pots? Are you sure of that?
- Yes.
I can understand them stealing
small arms and ammunition...
but what would they want
with smoke pots?
I wonder.
Sir, we've just had our
first lead of a tie-up...
with the killing of that
American sergeant five weeks ago...
- in the train holdup near Fujiyoshida.
- Let's have it.
An American civilian called Webber
was wounded an hour ago...
sticking up a factory payroll.
Instead of picking him up, one of his gang
pumped three bullets in him...
- and left him for dead.
- Where's the tie-up with the train holdup?
Ballistics report says
the three bullets in Webber...
came from the same gun that killed
the American sergeant on the train...
a P38.
- Just about.
If he talks, those three bullets might give us
the answers we've been looking for.
They turned on you like a pack of wolves
when you were hit.
Why cover for them? Come on, Webber.
You're hurt worse than you think.
Who fired the P38,
killed the payroll guard?
And the American sergeant.
The same gun was used in both murders.
Who is Eddie Spanier, huh?
Eddie. Eddie Spanier.
You guys.
You're a million...
He's got...
nothin'...
nothing to do with this.
- We were in the war together.
- What war?
Sticking up unarmed men
and old ladies?
According to this letter, he wants to join
you as soon as he gets out of prison.
Join you in what? What's the setup,
Webber? Who are the others?
Maybe this woman can tell us.
Mariko.
She doesn't know anything.
- She had nothing to do with this.
- Then what are you afraid she'll tell us?
She's got nothing to do
with this. Do you hear me?
- She's got nothin' to do with this.
Nothin', you hear me?
- Who is she?
- Nothin'.
- Who is she? Who is she?
- My wife.
- Your wife?
- Yes, I-I...
- That's not on the record.
Two months.
Two months. We've been
married two months.
Mariko.
Nobody knows.
We kept it on the q.t.
Nobody knows. Nobody knows.
Only her uncle.
Only her uncle and you.
Approximately
three weeks later...
a freighter from San Francisco
docked at the port of Yokohama.
