[00:23] Ran
    The Screaming Mummy.
[00:28] Sonoko
    Ancient Egypt sure is mysterious.
[00:32] Conan
    But isn't everything on
    display here a replica?
[00:38] Conan
    Why did we bother coming to this
    museum on the way home from school?
[00:45] Sonoko
    Curious?
[00:46] Ran
    We're here...
[00:49] Sonoko
    For these!
[00:51] Sonoko
    These Egyptian god keychains are super
    popular among our classmates right now.
[00:56] Ran
    And you can only buy them here.
[00:59] Sonoko
    That's right.
[01:00] Conan
    Super popular, huh?
[01:17] Conan
    Finally arriving after
    swaying back and forth,

[01:25] Conan
    with the body of a child

[03:14] Ran
    Don't you think this one's cute, too?
[03:18] Sonoko
    Hey, not bad.
[03:18] Conan
    I doubt we'll be leaving for a while.
[03:19] Ran
    Right?
[03:22] Conan
    What's this?
[03:25] Conan
    A notebook?
[03:29] Conan
    Ah, they have guests write
    reviews and requests in here.
[03:34] Kowata
    Some of the reviews are quite
    harsh, but they're quite helpful.
[03:40] Conan
    Uh...
[03:42] Kowata
    Oh, excuse me.
SIGN    Kowata Ken (56)
    Museum Director
[03:43] Kowata
    I'm Kowata, the director of the
    Ancient Oriental Culture Museum.
[03:49] Kowata
    Nice to meet you.
[03:51] Conan
    So it's his taste that's
    reflected in this place.
[03:54] Kowata
    We'll be closing soon, but
    enjoy yourself until then.
[04:00] Kowata
    Kids are very welcome here.
SIGN    Closed
[04:16] Sonoko
    Okay, I'm getting this one.
[04:19] Sonoko
    Anubis is mine.
[04:22] Conan
    They finally made up their minds.
[04:24] Ran
    Excuse me.
[04:27] Kowata
    Have you made up your minds?
[04:29] Sonoko
    Yes.
[04:30] Ran
    We'd like these, please.
[04:32] Kowata
    Sure thing.
[04:33] Kowata
    Oh...
[04:34] Kowata
    Ishikawa-kun, could you handle the register?
SIGN    Ishikawa Takuto (25)
    Museum Employee
[04:36] Ishikawa
    Yes, sir.
[04:42] Ishikawa
    This way, please.
[04:43] Sonoko
    Okay.
[04:49] Ran
    What was that?
[04:50] Sonoko
    What was that sound?
[04:51] Ran
    Conan-kun!
[04:57] Ran
    Conan-kun, what's wrong?
[05:02] Sonoko
    C-Could it be?
[05:04] Conan
    Ran-neechan, call the police.
[05:06] Ran
    Got it.
[05:12] Kowata
    It's the curse.
[05:15] Kowata
    It's Anubis' curse.
[05:35] Sonoko
    Hey, Detective Takagi.
[05:37] Sonoko
    Was this an accident or a murder?
[05:40] Takagi
    We don't know yet.
[05:43] Kowata
    It's the curse.
[05:45] Kowata
    It's clearly Anubis' curse.
[05:48] Sonoko
    What curse?
[05:50] Kowata
    Look at the object he's
    holding in his right hand.
[05:55] Ran
    A-A feather?
[05:57] Sonoko
    Is that an ostrich feather?
[06:00] Kowata
    Indeed it is.
[06:01] Ran
    Wh-What's so special about ostrich feathers?
[06:05] Sonoko
    The Book of the Dead.
[06:07] Kowata
    That's right.
[06:08] Ran
    Th-The Book of the Dead?
[06:10] Kowata
    The Book of the Dead is a
    guidebook to the afterlife.
[06:14] Kowata
    It describes how the dead
    reach the afterlife.
[06:18] Chiba
    What does that have to
    do with ostrich feathers?
[06:22] Kowata
    The dead are judged after their death.
[06:26] Kowata
    Their own heart is placed
    on one side of Ra's scales.
[06:29] Kowata
    An ostrich feather is
    placed on the other side.
[06:33] Kowata
    If the deceased's heart is tainted by
    sin, the scales tip out of balance.
[06:39] Kowata
    If the deceased is judged innocent,
    the way to the afterlife opens to them.
[06:43] Kowata
    However, if they're guilty, the
    beast Ammit consumes their soul.
[06:54] Sonoko
    And presiding over that judgment is...
[06:57] Kowata
    God of the Underworld and
    mummification, Anubis.
[07:07] Ishikawa
    I've heard about this.
[07:08] Ishikawa
    A bunch of archaeologists
    died mysterious deaths.
[07:12] Sonoko
    That's the curse of the pharaohs.
[07:15] Kowata
    Anubis must've judged this person guilty.
[07:20] Sonoko
    Does that mean Anubis is the culprit?
[07:23] Chiba
    Does that mean the Anubis statue happened
    to fall as the victim was passing by it?
[07:30] Conan
    Don't you think it's odd, though?
[07:33] Conan
    There's a wound on the back of his head.
[07:37] Takagi
    Yes. Forensics said further investigation
    is required to determine
[07:43] Takagi
    if he got that when he was
    struck by the falling statue.
[07:46] Conan
    Then what about that broken pedestal?
[07:49] Conan
    The broken leg is a different
    color from the other ones.
[07:53] Chiba
    You're right.
[07:55] Chiba
    Was only this leg made using a weaker wood?
[07:59] Takagi
    Which means after a certain
    amount of time had passed,
[08:02] Takagi
    the wood could no longer bear the weight
    of the statue, causing it to fall.
[08:10] Conan
    It's an improvised timer.
[08:13] Takagi
    In other words, the culprit could've rigged
    this in order to fabricate an alibi.
[08:19] Ran
    Y-You mean...
[08:20] Takagi
    Yes. It's likely that this wasn't
    an accident, but a murder.
[08:26] Takagi
    Director, we'd like to check
    your security camera footage.
[08:30] Kowata
    O-Okay.
[08:32] Chiba
    By the way, how many employees
    are there aside from yourself?
[08:37] Kowata
    Just Ishikawa-kun.
[08:39] Kowata
    Nothing beats low labor costs.
[08:48] Conan
    That's him.
[08:49] Chiba
    We determined from his wallet that the
    victim was Uchida Hiroaki-san, 47 years old.
[08:55] Chiba
    He worked in construction.
[08:58] Chiba
    We've already contacted his
    wife, and she's on her way here.
[09:03] Chiba
    Additionally, we believe this
    woman is his wife Uchida Yuko-san.
[09:09] Kowata
    She's been coming here a lot recently.
[09:13] Takagi
    What?
[09:14] Kowata
    I offered her an annual pass,
    but she declined my offer.
[09:19] Takagi
    I-I see.
[09:21] Takagi
    Keep playing the tape.
[09:22] Ishikawa
    Okay.
[09:25] Takagi
    Stop.
[09:26] Takagi
    Who is that?
[09:28] Kowata
    That's Yamada-san, a regular.
[09:30] Kowata
    He's one of a few guests
    who have an annual pass.
[09:34] Takagi
    Keep playing the tape.
[09:36] Ishikawa
    Okay.
[09:43] Kowata
    Nobody came to the museum after this.
[09:45] Conan
    In other words, one of them is the culprit.
[09:54] Yuko
    That's definitely my husband.
[09:57] Yuko
    How did this happen?
[09:59] Takagi
    You came to this museum today, didn't you?
[10:03] Yuko
    Yes.
SIGN    Uchida Yuko (33)
    Uchida Hiroaki's Wife
[10:04] Takagi
    Did something happen inside the museum?
[10:06] Yuko
    I don't know.
[10:07] Yuko
    He suddenly showed up while I
    was viewing the exhibits inside.
SIGN    Uchida Hiroaki (47)
[10:13] Yuko
    We got into an argument,
    and I left before him.
[10:19] Yuko
    I don't know what happened
    after we parted ways.
[10:22] Takagi
    Why did you get into an argument?
[10:25] Yuko
    He was a very controlling person.
[10:28] Yuko
    He was angry that I came
    here without his permission.
[10:32] Conan
    Does that mean your husband followed you?
[10:35] Yuko
    He'd make it sound like
    he caught me cheating,
[10:40] Yuko
    but as far as I'm concerned, he
    was acting like a nasty stalker.
[10:44] Chiba
    Then...
[10:46] Yuko
    I can't say we were a happy couple.
[10:49] Yuko
    I was considering divorce.
[10:52] Sonoko
    Are you sure you should be saying that?
[10:54] Yuko
    You'd figure it out if I lied.
[10:57] Yuko
    It's better to be honest.
[11:00] Takagi
    Just to be sure, could we
    check your phone's history?
[11:05] Yuko
    I'm sorry. I don't have a cell phone.
[11:09] Both
    What?
[11:09] Sonoko
    That's unusual in this day and age.
[11:12] Yamada
    That woman is the culprit!
SIGN    Yamada Kiyoshi (72)
    Museum Regular
[11:15] Yamada
    I saw them.
[11:16] Takagi
    What did you see?
[11:18] Yamada
    I saw them arguing.
[11:20] Yamada
    They threatened to kill them.
[11:22] Sonoko
    Who did?
[11:24] Yamada
    The husband.
[11:26] Yamada
    They even said, "You'll
    never get away with it!"
[11:30] Ran
    Who did?
[11:32] Yamada
    That was the husband, too.
[11:37] Yamada
    It makes no difference who said it.
[11:41] Yamada
    The culprit is definitely the wife!
[11:43] Takagi
    You also don't have an alibi.
[11:46] Yamada
    Fool! Who's got the time
    to bludgeon a stranger?
[11:52] Kowata
    I told you, it's Anubis' curse.
[11:56] Chiba
    We're asking for your alibi for
    when the incident took place.
[12:00] Takagi
    What were you doing around 3PM, 30
    minutes before the body was discovered?
[12:05] Ishikawa
    I was repairing a mirror.
[12:08] Ishikawa
    After that, I met up with the
    director and some guests.
[12:12] Kowata
    I believe I was preparing
    to close the museum.
[12:15] Takagi
    In other words, you were both alone.
[12:17] Ishikawa
    Yes.
[12:19] Conan
    Ishikawa-san, how long have
    you been working here?
[12:22] Ishikawa
    Who, me? I think it's been about two years.
[12:25] Conan
    Huh.
[12:27] Sonoko
    I can't believe he doesn't
    know the difference
[12:29] Sonoko
    between the pharaohs and Anubis
    after working here for two years.
[12:33] Chiba
    Ultimately, nobody had a solid alibi.
[12:37] Takagi
    Let's look into the backgrounds
    of the victim and suspects.
[12:41] Takagi
    We may discover a surprising connection.
[12:44] Chiba
    You're right.
[12:54] Takagi
    This Uchida man is unbelievable.
SIGN    Committed acts of violence against romantic partner Violated partner's privacy with controlling behavior Numerous other incidents of harassment Has been seeing women other than his partner for several years According to the women, he has been seeing multiple women Has been taken into police custody for fights numerous times No major incidents, but always inflicted minor injuries on the other parties Deeply in debt Borrowing money from multiple financial companies Also owes a significant amount of money to acquaintances
[12:59] Takagi
    On top of his countless minor offensives, he
    has a history of cheating, brawling, and debt.
[13:06] Takagi
    Hello?
[13:07] Kowata
    Detective, I know who did it.
[13:10] Takagi
    You do?
[13:12] Kowata
    Yes. I'm confirming it
    now, but it must be them.
[13:18] Takagi
    Who is it?
[13:21] Kowata
    Well, actually...
[13:24] Kowata
    What are you—
[13:26] Takagi
    What's the matter? Sir?
[13:29] Takagi
    Sir?!
[13:35] Ran
    Sonoko, are we really going back there?
[13:39] Sonoko
    I'm Mystery Queen Sonoko.
[13:41] Sonoko
    Of course I'm curious to know
    how yesterday turned out.
[13:44] Ran
    I guess so.
[13:45] Chiba
    Please calm down.
[13:46] Ran
    Hey, look.
[13:47] Kowata
    What are you doing?
[13:48] Kowata
    D-Don't touch me!
[13:50] Kowata
    I am Anubis!
[13:52] Kowata
    I am the god of the Underworld who
    judges the souls of the dead!
[13:55] Sonoko
    This voice...
[13:56] Ran
    Is that the director?
[13:58] Kowata
    Present your heart to me!
[13:59] Ran
    What's going on here?
[14:00] Takagi
    I received a call from the
    director this morning.
[14:03] Takagi
    He said he knew who the culprit was.
[14:04] Both
    What?
[14:05] Takagi
    But before he could tell me
    their name, the call ended.
[14:09] Takagi
    I rushed here and found him like this.
[14:11] Kowata
    His soul was tainted!
[14:14] Kowata
    His soul tainted by lies
    was consumed by Ammit!
[14:19] Takagi
    Take him to the station.
[14:21] Chiba
    Yes, sir.
[14:21] Kowata
    Hey, what are you doing?
[14:23] Kowata
    How dare you put your hands on a god!
[14:26] Chiba
    Please stop struggling.
[14:26] Kowata
    You mustn't touch me!
[14:28] Kowata
    Inside that cursed notebook is...
[14:30] Kowata
    No! Let go!
[14:31] Kowata
    If you look at it, you'll be cursed!
[14:33] Kowata
    The only thing the cursed can do is pray!
[14:41] Ran
    Conan-kun, don't. You'll be cursed.
[14:43] Conan
    I'll be fine.
[14:45] Conan
    Judging by his behavior, there must be
    something about the culprit in this notebook.
SIGN    Date | Time
SIGN    Today I got to see the Book of the Dead. The hieroglyphs are arranged in such an orderly manner, like the bricks in the wall at Tokyo Station. By the way, the sun rising over the Libyan Desert was magical. I had fun. I'll be back. Next time I'll bring my friends. I came with my mommy and my daddy. I liked Anubis.
[14:52] Conan
    I see.
[14:55] Conan
    So that's how it is.
[14:58] Takagi
    But Conan-kun, why are we
    going to Tokyo Station?
[15:02] Conan
    This notebook is full of reviews from lots of
    people, and Uchida Yuko-san's are among them.
[15:09] Ran
    What?
[15:10] Conan
    She didn't write her name, but the
    initials are the same, so it must be her.
[15:14] Conan
    If you look back through reviews
    written in the same handwriting,
[15:20] Conan
    you'll find that Yuko-san
    has left 17 reviews.
[15:24] Conan
    At first glance, the remarks seem harmless,
[15:27] Conan
    but if you read them carefully, you'll
    notice they have something in common.
[15:32] Sonoko
    What's that?
[15:34] Ran
    "It was raining in Shibuya."
[15:36] Ran
    "Shinjuku at night reminds
    me of Cairo at night."
[15:42] Ran
    "Flowers were blooming
    by the river in Meguro."
[15:44] Ran
    "The cicadas in Shakujii Park were..."
[15:47] Ran
    I know!
[15:48] Ran
    She's meeting someone.
SIGN    Shinjuku
[15:50] Ran
    There's always the name of a
    location in each of her comments.
SIGN    Yoyogi
SIGN    Daikanyama
SIGN    Shibuya
SIGN    Shinjuku
[15:54] Sonoko
    Come to think of it, she said
    she didn't have a cell phone.
SIGN    Shakujii Park
SIGN    Shibuya
SIGN    Shinjuku
[15:57] Takagi
    So it's a code.
SIGN    Shinjuku
[15:59] Conan
    Also, look at the dates of the comments.
[16:01] Ran
    The dates? But all the comments have dates.
[16:05] Ran
    The dates and times go back and forth.
[16:08] Ran
    I know.
[16:08] Ran
    This isn't when she wrote the comment,
    it's when she's meeting someone.
[16:14] Sonoko
    The last one is 11 o'clock on the ninth.
[16:18] Sonoko
    We only have 20 more minutes!
[16:20] Takagi
    Let's hurry!
[16:23] Ran
    We're here, but where are supposed
    to look? Tokyo Station is huge.
[16:29] Takagi
    This certainly is a problem.
[16:31] Takagi
    I've requested backup, but we
    need to narrow it down somehow.
[16:36] Conan
    Where is she? Where are they meeting?
[16:42] Takagi
    15 more minutes.
[16:48] Takagi
    Ten more minutes.
[16:50] Conan
    Damn it. Which words indicate
    where they're meeting?
[16:55] Yuko
    Today I got to see the Book of the Dead.
[16:59] Yuko
    The hieroglyphs are arranged
    in such an orderly manner,
[17:02] Yuko
    like the bricks in the wall at Tokyo Station.
[17:05] Yuko
    By the way, the sun rising over
    the Libyan Desert was magical.
[17:14] Yuko
    When the deceased watched their hearts
[17:16] Yuko
    weighed against an ostrich
    feather on Anubis' scale,
[17:19] Yuko
    all they could do was pray.
[17:23] Yuko
    That's why I'll begin by praying, too.
[17:27] Sonoko
    Let me see that.
[17:30] Ran
    What's the Libyan Desert?
[17:32] Sonoko
    It's a part of the Sahara
    Desert in southwestern Egypt.
[17:36] Ran
    Huh, I guess Yuko-san's been to Egypt.
[17:40] Takagi
    H-Hold on.
[17:41] Ran
    Huh?
[17:42] Takagi
    I reviewed some records last night,
    and she's never been to Egypt.
[17:48] Takagi
    She doesn't even have a passport.
[17:50] Both
    What?
[17:51] Conan
    That's it.
[17:52] All
    What?
[17:53] Conan
    Sonoko-neechan, you said the Libyan
    Desert is in southwestern Egypt, right?
[17:58] Sonoko
    Y-Yeah.
[17:59] Conan
    Then it's impossible for the sun
    to rise over the Libyan Desert.
[18:04] Sonoko
    Oh, yeah.
[18:05] Ran
    Then this is part of the code, too?
[18:07] Conan
    See how it says "I'll begin
    by praying" before that?
[18:13] Ran
    Yeah, I see it.
[18:15] Conan
    That's where it starts.
[18:17] Takagi
    Where it starts?
[18:19] Conan
    At Tokyo Station, there are
    facilities for praying here.
SIGN    Prayer Room
[18:23] Takagi
    The prayer room.
[18:25] Conan
    And since the Libyan Desert
    is in southwestern Egypt,
SIGN    Prayer Room
SIGN    Taxi Stand
[18:29] Conan
    if you head southwest from the prayer room...
SIGN    Marunouchi Subway North Exit
[18:33] Ran
    The taxi stand.
[18:54] Sonoko
    What? What is Ishikawa-san doing here?
[19:10] Sonoko
    Ishikawa-san, I knew you would come here.
[19:16] Sonoko
    This case started with the
    discord between the Uchidas.
[19:21] Sonoko
    After witnessing their argument,
[19:24] Sonoko
    Yuko-san's lover decided to commit
    a crime in order to protect her.
[19:27] Yuko
    You're wrong! I'm the one who killed him!
[19:30] Sonoko
    A woman couldn't have committed this crime.
[19:33] Sonoko
    Even if you dropped the
    feather in the hallway
[19:35] Sonoko
    and attacked him from
    behind as he picked it up,
[19:40] Sonoko
    it would've been difficult
    for you to drag the body
[19:44] Sonoko
    or tamper with the two-meter
    tall Anubis statue's platform,
[19:48] Sonoko
    even though it's a replica, in
    such a short amount of time.
[19:52] Yuko
    No! I did it!
[19:54] Sonoko
    No, you had nothing to do with the murder.
[19:57] Takagi
    How do you know that?
[19:59] Sonoko
    It was written in the notebook.
[20:01] Takagi
    What? Wh-Where?
[20:05] Sonoko
    It wasn't written explicitly.
[20:09] Ran
    What was it, then?
[20:10] Sonoko
    Her final note was written
    in her usual handwriting.
[20:15] Sonoko
    If she'd been involved in the murder,
[20:17] Sonoko
    it would've affected her handwriting.
[20:21] Takagi
    You're right.
[20:22] Ran
    Come to think of it, Ishikawa-san
    mixed up Anubis and the pharaohs...
[20:27] Sonoko
    But that was a lie meant to direct
    suspicion away from himself.
[20:33] Sonoko
    He pretended to be ignorant
    so we wouldn't suspect him.
[20:37] Ran
    Is he responsible for the
    director's curse, too?
[20:41] Ran
    You showed up just before the director
[20:45] Ran
    could tell Detective Takagi the
    culprit's name, didn't you?
[20:50] Sonoko
    When you explained the
    situation to the director,
[20:52] Sonoko
    he felt sorry for you two and had second
    thoughts about telling the truth.
[20:57] Sonoko
    So he pretended to be cursed
    by Anubis to avoid testifying.
[21:03] Takagi
    I see. Then he wouldn't
    have to perjure himself.
[21:07] Ishikawa
    You're right.
[21:09] Ishikawa
    I'm responsible for everything.
[21:12] Ishikawa
    I know I've caused trouble for the director.
[21:16] Ishikawa
    But Uchida Hiroaki deserved to die!
[21:19] Takagi
    You're wrong.
[21:20] Both
    What?
[21:22] Takagi
    Violence, controlling behavior, violations
    of privacy, and all manner of harassment.
[21:27] Takagi
    I know Uchida-san was having affairs with
    multiple women for several years, too.
[21:34] Yuko
    I was in hell.
[21:35] Yuko
    Ishikawa-san saved me from that hell.
[21:40] Ishikawa
    Yuko-san...
[21:41] Takagi
    However,
[21:43] Takagi
    that doesn't make it right
    to take a person's life.
[23:17] Sonoko
    Hey, apparently a Aztec culture museum is
    opening on the other side of the station.
[23:22] Sonoko
    Want to check it out sometime?
[23:23] Ran
    What?
[23:24] Conan
    What about Ancient Oriental culture?
[23:28] Sonoko
    That's old news. Aztec culture is in now.
[23:34] Sonoko
    The Incan Empire, Machu Picchu,
    Lake Titicaca, Quetzalcoatl.
[23:39] Sonoko
    It's so romantic.
[23:41] Conan
    Do you even know what those words mean?
