The Samurai (1962)

The Clue (8x7)

:

The Iga ninja set a guard over the captured House of Night in case there is anything within which might give a clue to the identity of the Lord of Night and the Phantom ninja come back to get it. Hitonashi does indeed break in and is captured. He only allowed that to happen so he could get to a hidden compartment and remove a package. However, Shintarō demands he hand over what he took. In the ensuing fight Hitonashi is killed and Shintarō takes the bundle which proves to contain a map of Lord Rokkaku's house. When he and Tonbei go to investigate whether he is really the Lord of Night, they find his house in an uproar and he slightly wounded after an attack by the Phantom Ninja.
