The year is 2004, and a married couple has just been found dead in a room on the 48th floor of Sky Rose Garden, a super high-rise apartment building. Four individuals whose names begin with the letter N appear to be connected to the crime, namely the college student Nozomi Sugishita (Nana Eikura), his college classmate Shinji Naruse (Masataka Kubota), Nozomi's high school classmate, as well as former high school classmates Nozomu Ando (Kaku Kento) and Masato Nishizaki (Keisuke Koide). When Masato Nishizaki confesses to the crime, he is tried and found guilty – and given a 10-year jail sentence.

Now, a decade later, Masato Nishizaki is about to be released. A former police officer named Shigeru Takano (Miura Tomokazu) is conducting an independent investigation into the murders and is dogged by the fact that there seem to be so many flaws in the case. The witness statements seem to contradict one another, he also discovers problems with the way evidence was gathered back in 2004. Moreover, he can’t help feeling that Masato Nishizaki’s confession doesn’t quite make sense. The more he investigates, the more Shigeru Takano starts to feel that this murder isn’t quite as it seems. Which N is really responsible for the crime?

“Testimony of N” is a 2014 Japanese drama series that was directed by Ayuko Tsukahara and Takeyoshi Yamamoto.

Testimony of N

🚨The Truth Team 🕵🏻​

Makoto (Hiroshi Tamaki) wasn’t quite sure what to expect, his first day as a university student, but meeting Shizuru (Aoi Miyazaki) certainly hadn’t been part of his plans. Meeting at their university entrance ceremony, Shizuru and Makoto just clicked. Usually shy and withdrawn, Makoto was never one to open up with others but there was something about the way Shizuru made him feel... For the first time ever, he felt like he could actually be himself around her and the two soon became fast friends.

Sharing a love of photography, Makoto and Shizuru often visited a nearby forest to take pictures. Spending time together, Shizuru’s feelings for Makoto naturally began to deepen, unfortunately his heart already belonged to someone else. Realizing Makoto only had eyes for their classmate, Miyuki (Meisa Kuroki), Shizuru accepted her fate and even went so far as to befriend Miyuki. Though she did warn Makoto that someday, she was going to become a true beauty and when that day came, he was going to regret having ever rejected her. Despite everything, the three became the best of friends, so when Shizuru asked Makoto for his help with a photograph for a competition, he readily agreed. Heading to their favorite spot in the forest, Makoto and Shizuru set up the shot Shizuru envisioned. Sharing their one and only kiss, Shizuru captured the moment on film, well aware that it held no meaning for Makoto. After thanking her friend for his help, Shizuru walked away, completely disappearing from his life.

Years later, Makoto receives a call from his long-lost friend, inviting him to the opening of her photography exhibition but when he arrives, he’s shocked by what he finds. Realizing only too late, exactly what he lost the day Shizuru left, he begins to wonder if he will ever have a chance to make things right.

Based on the novel, “Collage of Our Life - Another Story” by Takuji Ichikawa, “Heavenly Forest” is a 2006 romance film directed by Takehiko Shinjo.
