Follow our detailed walkthrough for Judgment Chapter 12: Behind Closed Doors. We cover Ayabe's trial, tailing Ishimatsu, infiltrating Monsieur Lee, and rescuing Sugiura.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After the previous events, you'll need to take care of Ayabe's trial.
  2. 2
    Meet with Ayabe; suspicions will be confirmed.
  3. 3
    Head back to the Agency. Hattori will speak to you outside, then speak to Kaito inside.
  4. 4
    Speak with Kajihira at the restaurant to formulate a plan to get to the Mole, using Kido.
  5. 5
    Return to the city and go back to the Agency for the night.
  6. 6
    The next morning, go to the Genda Office and talk to Saori.
  7. 7
    Perform hair and makeup on Saori to make her look like a journalist.
  8. 8
    Saori will head to the ADDC to interview Kido. The good choices for this are "With pleasure.", "I want to know about you.", and "Undo Another Button". There is no trophy tied to this choice.
  9. 9
    You'll regain control of Yagami. Head to the Batting Center and approach Sugiura.
  10. 10
    Confront Kido and defeat his posse. Kido himself is not a difficult opponent.
  11. 11
    Bring Kido in for Interrogation Fun Time™. When prompted for a response, pick "Ichinose".
  12. 12
    Learn Kido's role and your next lead: follow Ishimatsu, the middleman Hamura mentioned, and get him to go to the secret lab in Kamurocho.
  13. 13
    Head to the Millennium Tower. You will be locked in for the rest of the chapter.
  14. 14
    Wait for Ishimatsu to appear on the opposite platform.
  15. 15
    Once Ishimatsu is identified, tail him. This is a long tail; Ishimatsu is skittish and will check corners and may lead you in circles.
  16. 16
    Follow Ishimatsu to the north end of the Hotel District, at Monsieur Lee, a closed-down love hotel.
  17. 17
    Inside, defeat the initial guards.
  18. 18
    Approach a door with an electronic lock. Go into the side room, beat up the two men inside, and pick up a "Massage Machine" from the bathroom box.
  19. 19
    Toss the Massage Machine into the puddle to fry the lock.
  20. 20
    Head forward; Sugiura will be nabbed.
  21. 21
    Head upstairs and to the right. Enter the two side rooms to find a Staminan X and a Secret Technique: Frontal Beatdown Skill Book.
  22. 22
    Pick the lock on the door to the north and enter the next room.
  23. 23
    Fight the two buff men in this room to save Sugiura.
  24. 24
    Grab an electric baton from the box near the bed.
  25. 25
    Take the electric baton to the hall with the cell door. The nasty dude will grab you if you get close, but the baton will automatically zap him.
  26. 26
    Head up the stairs to the third floor.
  27. 27
    Fight a buff man, then fight the fellow with the hammer.
  28. 28
    Defeat the hammer-wielding enemy to end the chapter.
Tips
  • You can complete all fifty Friends by this point.
  • For the fight to save Sugiura, leave him hanging and take your time with the two enemies. Make sure the second guy goes down with less than ten seconds left on the clock for a trophy.
