    Detective Conan Episode 1001 "The Moonlight Sonata Murder (Part Two)"
SIGN    Moonshade Island Village Office
[00:01] Narumi
    Based on that,
[00:03] Narumi
    I believe only a few minutes have passed
    since the victim Mayor Kuroiwa's death.
SIGN    Asai Narumi (26)
    Doctor
[00:10] Kogoro
    A-A few minutes?
[00:11] Narumi
    Yes.
[00:12] Megure
    That seems correct.
[00:15] Megure
    There's only five and a half minutes of
    silence at the beginning of this tape
[00:20] Megure
    of the "Moonlight Sonata"'s second movement.
[00:23] Kogoro
    I see.
[00:24] Police
    Inspector.
[00:26] Police
    There's a musical score written in blood
    beneath the chair the victim was sitting in.
[00:30] Megure
    What?
[00:35] Megure
    More musical scores.
[00:37] Kogoro
    Could this also be a dying
    message left by the victim?
[00:40] Conan
    No.
[00:42] Conan
    If he had the time and strength to write all this
    with his own blood, he would've called for help.
[00:48] Kogoro
    Stay out of this!
[00:53] Kogoro
    You idiot! That's valuable evidence!
[00:58] Kogoro
    It's okay.
[01:01] Conan
    A journey of a thousand miles
    starts with the first step!
[01:03] Conan
    Solve 1,000 mysteries and enter a new world!
[01:05] Conan
    The sound of a piano rings
    out across a remote island!
[01:07] Conan
    What conclusion will it pass down?
[01:09] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[01:11] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[01:13] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    The "Moonlight Sonata" Murder
    (Part Two)
[02:57] Conan
    "The 'Moonlight Sonata' Murder, Part Two!"
[03:03] Megure
    Let's jump right into it, Nishimoto-san.
[03:06] Megure
    You're the person who
    discovered Kuroiwa-san's body.
SIGN    Nishimoto Ken (55)
    Unemployed
[03:11] Nishimoto
    Kuroiwa told me to meet him
    in the broadcast room at 6:30.
[03:15] Megure
    Kuroiwa-san did say he was
    meeting someone this evening.
[03:21] Kogoro
    Are you sure you didn't tell him to meet
    you there so you could kill him?
[03:23] Nishimoto
    O-Of course not!
[03:24] Kogoro
    Then why did he want to meet you?
[03:28] Nishimoto
    I...
[03:30] Kogoro
    Looks like I'm right.
[03:33] Kogoro
    The culprit is—
[03:34] Reiko
    It's Shimizu!
[03:35] Reiko
    With mayoral election candidates
    Kawashima and my dad out of the way,
SIGN    Kuroiwa Reiko (27)
    Kuroiwa's Only Daughter
SIGN    Murasawa Shuichi (27)
    Reiko's Fiancé
[03:38] Reiko
    the mayor's seat automatically becomes his!
[03:42] Shimizu
    Don't be ridiculous!
SIGN    Shimizu Masato (49)
    Mayoral Election Candidate
[03:44] Shimizu
    There's no way I'd kill two
    people just to become the mayor!
[03:47] Ran
    What are you looking at, Conan-kun?
[03:49] Conan
    This musical score left at the crime scene.
[03:51] Conan
    I think this is probably a coded
    message left by the culprit.
[03:56] Conan
    Do these sharps and flats mean anything?
[04:00] Ran
    They refer to the black keys on the piano.
[04:02] Conan
    What?
[04:03] Ran
    You know, because they're symbols
    for a half step up or down.
[04:09] Conan
    The keys...
[04:11] Reiko
    Hurry up and catch the murderer, Inspector!
[04:14] Reiko
    Otherwise, more people will die!
[04:15] Conan
    You know you're next.
SIGN    Hirata Kazuaki (31)
    Secretary to the Mayor
[04:19] Ran
    Conan-kun?
[04:20] Conan
    Once you figure out the
    key to this code, it's simple.
[04:24] Conan
    They've assigned the letters of the alphabet to
    the keys of the piano in order from left to right
[04:28] Conan
    and written the corresponding
    sounds as a musical score.
[04:34] Conan
    Reading the sheet music left at Kawashima-san's
    murder according to that assumption, we get...
[04:39] Conan
    "You know you're next."
[04:44] Conan
    See?
[04:44] Ran
    Wow!
[04:46] Kogoro
    Th-Then what about the
    musical score written in blood?
[04:49] Conan
    Let's see.
[04:51] Conan
    "The hellfire's grudge is settled."
[04:56] Shimizu
    Th-The hellfire's grudge? Could it be?
[04:59] Reiko
    The pianist who burned
    himself to death 12 years ago?
[05:03] Nishimoto
    It's him.
[05:06] Nishimoto
    I knew it. He's alive.
[05:09] Nishimoto
    Aso Keiji is alive!
[05:11] Police
    He's not alive.
[05:13] Police
    The corpse found in the ruins
    matched his dental records.
[05:17] Police
    That was definitely him.
[05:19] Police
    Everything burnt to the ground.
[05:21] Police
    All that was left was the sheet
    music inside his fireproof safe.
[05:25] Both
    Sh-Sheet music?!
[05:28] Kogoro
    Where is that sheet music now?
[05:30] Police
    In the community center's safe.
[05:32] Police
    I believe I have the keys at the substation.
[05:34] Megure
    Then hurry up and bring them here!
[05:37] Police
    Yes, sir.
[05:38] Conan
    I'll go with you!
[05:41] Conan
    Hey, did Aso-san really set
    his own house on fire?
[05:46] Police
    Yeah, according to the witnesses.
[05:49] Conan
    What witnesses?
[05:51] Police
    The previous mayor
    Kameyama-san, Kawashima-san,
[05:55] Police
    the current mayor Kuroiwa, and Nishimoto-san.
[05:58] Conan
    What?
[05:59] Conan
    Aside from Nishimoto-san, they're all dead.
[06:03] Conan
    Then what about that Murasawa guy?
[06:06] Police
    He came to this island about three years ago.
[06:09] Police
    He got engaged to the mayor's
    daughter just the other day.
[06:13] Conan
    Really? What about the mayor's
    secretary Hirata-san?
[06:17] Police
    He's a strange fellow.
[06:19] Police
    I don't know what he was doing,
[06:21] Police
    but I often saw him secretly meeting with
    Kawashima-san at the community center.
[06:25] Conan
    What about Shimizu-san?
[06:27] Police
    He's a respectable man.
[06:29] Police
    His only flaw is that he's a bit short-tempered.
[06:36] Police
    Huh? That's odd.
[06:38] Police
    I know I put it around here somewhere.
[06:41] Conan
    Jeez. We've been looking
    for over an hour already.
[06:44] Police
    Ah, here it is. This is the key.
[06:47] Conan
    Then let's hurry back to Inspector Megure.
[06:49] Police
    Sure.
[06:50] Ran
    You're too late.
[06:51] Both
    What?
[06:53] Ran
    Everyone got tired of waiting and left.
[06:55] Conan
    What?!
[06:56] Conan
    They let the suspects leave, too?
[06:59] Ran
    Yeah. Since the culprit's last message
    said, "The hellfire's grudge is settled,"
[07:05] Ran
    they thought there wouldn't
    be anymore murders.
[07:07] Conan
    That can't be!
[07:08] Conan
    There's still the third movement
    of the "Moonlight Sonata."
[07:12] Conan
    I'm going to the community center!
[07:14] Ran
    Wait, Conan-kun.
[07:16] Conan
    Officer, hurry.
[07:18] Conan
    We need to check that sheet
    music as soon as possible.
[07:20] Police
    Don't rush me.
[07:27] Conan
    Hey, did you just hear a strange noise
    coming from the room with the piano?
[07:31] Ran
    Did you?
[07:38] Conan
    Bastard!
[07:46] Conan
    Murasawa-san?
[07:47] Conan
    Ran?
[07:50] Conan
    Ran-neechan!
[07:52] Conan
    What's wrong?
[07:56] Conan
    Nishimoto-san...
[07:58] Conan
    Officer, contact the Inspector immediately!
[08:01] Police
    Got it.
[08:05] Conan
    That was the sound of this stopping.
[08:08] Conan
    It contains a 60 minute tape.
[08:10] Conan
    Since each side is 30 minutes, Nishimoto-san
    probably died within the last 30 minutes.
[08:16] Ran
    Conan-kun.
[08:18] Ran
    Look next to Nishimoto-san's feet.
[08:20] Conan
    Huh?
[08:22] Conan
    Sheet music.
[08:25] Ran
    What does it say this time?
[08:28] Conan
    "Suicide note."
[08:30] Ran
    Suicide note? You mean Nishimoto-san...
[08:34] Kogoro
    He killed himself, huh?
[08:37] Megure
    According to this note, he regretted
    killing Kawashima and Kuroiwa.
[08:42] Kogoro
    So it was Nishimoto who killed them.
[08:46] Megure
    His motive was that he
    didn't want the mistake
[08:50] Megure
    he committed with Kawashima,
    Kuroiwa, Kameyama,
[08:53] Megure
    who died two years ago, and Aso,
[08:58] Megure
    who killed himself 12 years ago, to be exposed.
[09:00] Kogoro
    Even the pianist Aso?
[09:03] Megure
    Yeah.
[09:04] Megure
    It says that Aso came up with the code.
[09:08] Megure
    They must've done something using this code.
[09:12] Kogoro
    I see.
[09:13] Kogoro
    Nishimoto believed the sheet music that
    survived the fire described their old secret.
[09:19] Kogoro
    In order to destroy the sheet
    music, he broke into the safe,
[09:23] Kogoro
    but couldn't find the sheet
    music, so he killed himself.
[09:27] Megure
    No...
[09:28] Conan
    I don't think he killed himself.
[09:30] Kogoro
    What?
[09:31] Conan
    Look closely at the spot
    where the body's feet were.
[09:34] Conan
    There's nothing there for him to step on.
[09:37] Conan
    Normally a person wouldn't be able to
    do that without a step of some kind.
[09:40] Megure
    In other words, it's hard to
    imagine that this was a suicide.
[09:44] Conan
    I saw someone suspicious.
[09:47] Both
    What?
[09:47] Conan
    There were two people in the piano room.
[09:50] Conan
    One of them broke the window and fled,
    but the other one was Murasawa.
[09:55] Conan
    He was on the floor because
    someone struck him.
[09:57] Conan
    Doctor Narumi's examining him
    in the piano room right now.
[10:01] Kogoro
    You should've told us that sooner.
[10:08] Conan
    Officer, did you find Aso-san's sheet music?
[10:11] Police
    No.
[10:12] Police
    After all, it happened 12 years ago.
[10:16] Police
    I have no idea where I put it.
[10:19] Narumi
    I believe he has a concussion,
[10:22] Narumi
    but I can't say for certain unless I
    examine him properly at the clinic.
[10:25] Megure
    I see.
[10:26] Megure
    By the way, Kuroiwa-san, what
    was Murasawa-san doing here?
[10:30] Reiko
    I don't know!
[10:32] Reiko
    I'd like to know the answer
    to that question, too.
[10:37] Conan
    What's this?
[10:38] Reiko
    Don't touch that!
[10:39] Reiko
    It belongs to Shuichi.
[10:41] Megure
    What is that?
[10:42] Reiko
    I don't know, but it seemed important to him.
[10:45] Conan
    That's a tuning hammer used to tune pianos.
[10:50] Conan
    Does that mean he...?
[10:53] Megure
    In any case, gather all the
    suspects at the village office.
[10:56] Megure
    We're going to interview them again.
[10:58] Police
    Yes, sir.
[11:08] Ran
    What is it, Conan-kun?
[11:10] Conan
    The suspicious person who
    fled through the window
[11:12] Conan
    was searching the bottom
    of the piano before they ran.
[11:16] Conan
    I thought there might be something here.
[11:24] Ran
    What? Seriously?
[11:25] Ran
    It's a secret door.
[11:31] Conan
    What is this? Could it be?
[11:39] Megure
    Judging by the methods used,
[11:43] Megure
    the three murders that have taken place
[11:44] Megure
    on this island were almost certainly
    committed by the same person.
[11:48] Conan
    What is it?
[11:50] Conan
    Something's not right.
[11:52] Conan
    Ever since I saw the code left at the second
    crime scene, something has seemed strange.
[11:58] Police
    Inspector Megure.
[11:59] Police
    The photos we took of the scene of
    Kuroiwa's murder have been developed.
[12:03] Megure
    Thank you.
[12:04] Megure
    Could you lay them out over there?
[12:06] Police
    Yes, sir.
[12:07] Megure
    Doctor Narumi, is Murasawa-san still unconscious?
[12:10] Narumi
    Reiko-san is taking care of him, but he still hasn't regained consciousness.
[12:16] Conan
    What's this thing shining by Kuroiwa-san's neck?
[12:20] Conan
    It disappeared after the body was moved.
[12:23] Hirata
    Um, Inspector?
[12:25] Hirata
    Could I go buy something to drink?
[12:27] Hirata
    I'm thirsty.
[12:30] Megure
    Very well.
[12:36] Conan
    Hey, mister.
[12:38] Conan
    You've got white powder on your sleeve.
[12:43] Conan
    Wow, that's a lot of foreign money.
[12:47] Hirata
    I like foreign coins.
[12:50] Conan
    Really?
[12:52] Police
    K-Kid!
[12:56] Police
    I finally found the sheet
    music Aso-san left behind.
[12:59] Conan
    Let me see that.
[13:01] Police
    Hey.
[13:03] Conan
    "To my son Seiji."
[13:07] Conan
    I thought Aso-san had a wife and
    daughter who he took with him.
[13:13] Police
    Come to think of it, he had a son, too.
[13:16] Police
    He fell terribly ill as a child and
    was hospitalized on the mainland.
[13:21] Police
    I believe his name was...
[13:23] Conan
    Seiji.
[13:26] Conan
    Could it be?
[13:37] Conan
    I see. So that's how it is.
[13:39] Conan
    The reason the culprit moved Kawashima-san
    to the piano room after drowning him.
[13:46] Conan
    The meaning behind the music
    left at all three crime scenes.
[13:50] Conan
    And the mystery of the code written in blood.
[13:54] Conan
    It's definitely them. They're the culprit.
[13:59] Kogoro
    What's wrong with you?
[14:02] Kogoro
    Why'd you suddenly run
    into the broadcast room?
[14:05] Megure
    In any case, tomorrow morning we'll
    interview you two and Murasawa-san,
[14:10] Megure
    who's resting at the clinic.
[14:12] Kogoro
    Inspector, I've figured out most of what happened on this island.
[14:17] Ran
    Dad?
[14:19] Kogoro
    First, the person who knocked out
    Murasawa-san in the piano room tonight
[14:24] Kogoro
    was Hirata-san.
[14:27] Kogoro
    He suffered the injury on his left hand when he broke through the window and fled.
[14:32] Kogoro
    Hirata-san was using the secret door
    on the underside of the piano
[14:39] Kogoro
    to conduct drug deals with Kawashima.
[14:40] Megure
    D-Drugs?!
[14:41] Kogoro
    He probably struck Murasawa-san
[14:44] Kogoro
    and ran because he saw him
    collecting the leftover drugs.
[14:48] Megure
    Then he got into an argument over
    the drugs with Kawashima, and...
[14:52] Hirata
    N-No!
[14:53] Kogoro
    However, Hirata-san isn't
    connected to the three murders.
[14:57] Megure
    What?
[14:58] Kogoro
    If he were the culprit, he wouldn't have
    moved the body into the piano room.
[15:02] Kogoro
    After all, the drugs left in
    the piano could be discovered.
[15:06] Megure
    I see.
[15:08] Kogoro
    Then there's Murasawa-san,
    who was knocked out.
[15:11] Megure
    He's the culprit?
[15:12] Kogoro
    He isn't the culprit either.
[15:14] Megure
    What?
[15:16] Kogoro
    The culprit prepared a suicide note
    to disguise his murder as a suicide,
[15:19] Kogoro
    but they fled in such a hurry that
    they forgot to leave a step.
[15:23] Kogoro
    It's hard to imagine someone who did
    that would go to the piano room.
[15:26] Megure
    Y-You're right.
[15:28] Kogoro
    Then who killed them?
[15:30] Kogoro
    Direct your attention to the second case.
[15:34] Kogoro
    Kuroiwa-san was allegedly murdered only a
    few minutes before his body was discovered.
[15:40] Kogoro
    Recall how the code written in blood
[15:44] Kogoro
    didn't smear even though
    Conan fell on top of it.
[15:50] Kogoro
    However, at room temperature,
[15:53] Kogoro
    it takes blood 15 to 30 minutes to dry.
[15:57] Kogoro
    Because there were only five
    minutes and 30 seconds of silence
[16:01] Kogoro
    at the start of the tape that was playing,
[16:04] Kogoro
    we believed the murder occurred only a few
    minutes before the body was discovered.
[16:09] Kogoro
    But by playing the tape from the blank B side,
[16:14] Kogoro
    the culprit delayed the music
    by over 30 minutes
[16:19] Kogoro
    using the tape player's auto-reverse feature.
[16:22] Megure
    Auto-reverse?
[16:23] Kogoro
    Normally, once a tape player
    finishes playing the A side,
[16:26] Kogoro
    you flip over the cassette and
    begin playing the B side.
[16:32] Kogoro
    But the auto-reverse feature inverts the
    tape head to play the opposite side.
[16:37] Kogoro
    Take a look at the crime scene photos.
[16:39] Kogoro
    There's a switch shining next to the body's neck,
[16:44] Kogoro
    but in the photo taken after
    the body was moved, it's gone.
[16:49] Kogoro
    It proves the culprit deactivated the
    auto-reverse while the police weren't looking.
[16:53] Megure
    But the only person who
    approached the body then was...
[16:58] Kogoro
    The only person besides the police
    who could approach the body
[17:01] Kogoro
    or fake the estimated time of death was
    the person who examined it, Doctor Narumi.
[17:08] Kogoro
    You're the only one who could have done it.
[17:10] Ran
    Doctor Narumi?
[17:13] Kogoro
    The reason you left a few minutes of
    silence at the beginning on the tape
[17:17] Kogoro
    that played during the first murder
[17:19] Kogoro
    was to make us believe
    the culprit once again
[17:23] Kogoro
    used that same silence during the
    second murder to flee the crime scene.
[17:27] Kogoro
    Furthermore, you drowned Kawashima-san
[17:31] Kogoro
    so the coroner would return to
    the mainland with the body,
[17:34] Kogoro
    and so you'd be asked to examine
    the body during the second murder,
[17:37] Kogoro
    allowing you to enact your trick.
[17:41] Kogoro
    Doctor Narumi's motive for
    these three murders
[17:44] Kogoro
    can be traced back to 12 years ago.
[17:47] Megure
    12 years ago?
[17:49] Kogoro
    12 years ago, the pianist Aso Keiji-san
    burned himself to death.
[17:55] Kogoro
    However, he was actually murdered
[17:58] Kogoro
    by Kawashima-san, Kuroiwa-san,
[18:02] Kogoro
    and Nishimoto-san,
[18:04] Kogoro
    who were killed in this case, as well as
    Kameyama-san, who died two years ago.
[18:08] Murder
    H-He was murdered?
[18:10] Kogoro
    They used Aso-san's
    international performances
[18:15] Kogoro
    to purchase drugs and used the secret
    door in the piano to sell them.
[18:19] Kogoro
    However, Aso-san told them that he
    wouldn't work with them anymore.
[18:28] Kogoro
    All of this is described in the sheet music
    found in the burnt remains of the house.
[18:33] Kogoro
    Just before his death, Aso-san wrote
    a confession to his son Seiji.
[18:40] Megure
    His son?
[18:42] Ran
    Wait, Seiji? Could it be?
SIGN    Asai Narumi
[18:45] Kogoro
    Doctor Narumi's actual name is Seiji.
SIGN    Asai Seiji
[18:49] Kogoro
    He's actually Aso Keiji's son, Aso Seiji.
SIGN    Aso Seiji
[18:54] Ran
    No way.
[18:55] Megure
    So he did it to avenge his father?
[18:58] Police
    Inspector!
[19:00] Police
    Asai Narumi is missing.
[19:01] Megure
    What?
[19:04] Megure
    Find him! Don't let him escape!
[19:06] Conan
    He'll be there,
[19:07] Conan
    where his father's piano was donated.
[19:10] Conan
    The Moonshade Island community center!
[19:18] Narumi
    It's over, Dad.
[19:21] Narumi
    It's all over.
[19:23] Conan
    It's not over yet.
[19:26] Conan
    You can't die.
[19:28] Narumi
    Conan-kun.
[19:30] Conan
    It's written right here in the
    sheet music your father left you.
[19:34] Conan
    "Seiji, at least you can live a decent life."
[19:39] Narumi
    If he'd written that,
[19:42] Narumi
    then maybe I wouldn't have needed to do this.
[19:45] Conan
    What?
[19:46] Narumi
    I couldn't believe that my father had done that.
[19:51] Narumi
    I couldn't believe he'd killed my mother
    and sister before killing himself.
[19:55] Narumi
    So after graduating from medical school, I
    came to this island in order to find the truth.
[20:01] Narumi
    I disguised myself as a woman doctor so people
    wouldn't discover that I was Aso Keiji's son.
[20:06] Narumi
    Since the reading of my name isn't written on
    my medical license, nobody suspected me.
[20:12] Narumi
    I learned what happened to my father
[20:15] Narumi
    when the previous mayor Kameyama
    told me to meet him here in this room.
[20:20] Narumi
    When he learned that I was Aso Keiji's son,
[20:24] Narumi
    he suddenly became frightened
    and told me everything.
[20:27] Narumi
    About the drugs, the code,
    and my father's murder.
[20:33] Narumi
    Once he finished talking, he
    was suddenly wracked with pain.
[20:37] Narumi
    He died of a heart attack.
[20:41] Narumi
    That's when I came up with these murders...
[20:46] Narumi
    while playing the "Moonlight Sonata" my
    father loved next to his body as a requiem.
[20:56] Conan
    In any case, let's get out of here, Seiji-san.
[20:59] Conan
    There's still time.
[21:00] Narumi
    It's too late.
[21:02] Conan
    What?
[21:04] Narumi
    My hands are like theirs now.
[21:08] Narumi
    Covered in blood.
[21:10] Conan
    Seiji-san...
[21:16] Ran
    Conan-kun?
[21:17] Conan
    Damn it!
[21:18] Ran
    Don't!
[21:19] Conan
    Let go!
[21:22] Ran
    What's that sound?
[21:25] Conan
    A code.
[21:27] Conan
    He's playing the piano amidst those flames.
SIGN    Special Thanks To everyone who loves Conan
[22:59] Conan
    The community center continued to burn until
    morning, when it finally burnt down completely.
[23:03] Conan
    Apparently Murasawa-san missed the pianist
    Aso Keiji and occasionally tuned that piano.
[23:12] Conan
    It's what he was doing the night he was struck.
[23:16] Ran
    Anyway...
[23:18] Ran
    I wonder why Doctor Narumi
    sent Dad that letter.
[23:22] Conan
    He probably wanted someone to stop
    him from murdering those people.
[23:29] Ran
    Hey, what was the code Doctor Narumi played?
[23:34] Conan
    I forgot already.
[23:36] Ran
    I can tell by the look on your
    face that you haven't.
SIGN    Thank you,
[23:39] Ran
    Come on, tell me.
SIGN    little detective.
[23:42] Ran
    I'll tickle you.
[23:43] Conan
    Stop!
