Description:

Signal: Long-Term Unsolved Case Investigation – The Movie plunges into a gripping mystery across time. The story unfolds as a seemingly ordinary 2021 highway accident, involving a limousine taxi and a high-level government official's death, raises immediate suspicions. Kento Saegusa and his cold case investigation team, including Misaki Sakurai, quickly doubt the official explanation, sensing a deeper conspiracy. This modern-day enigma mirrors a series of perplexing car accidents from 2009, where multiple administrative officers died, which Takeshi Ōyama stubbornly believes were not mere chance despite police conclusions. At a precise moment, 11:23 pm, a unique walkie-talkie sparks to life, creating an unprecedented connection between Saegusa in the future and Ōyama in the past. Together, they confront a terrifying bioterrorism threat, racing against time to expose a truth that has remained unsolved for years and prevent a catastrophic future.
