    Detective Conan Episode 1023
    "The Whistling Bookstore 3"
[00:02] Mitsuhiko
    Thank you for gathering here today, everyone.
[00:06] Conan
    What'd you want to talk about, Mitsuhiko?
[00:10] Mitsuhiko
    I've figured out who stole the pudding
    that came with the pasta meal
[00:18] Mitsuhiko
    that I ordered at Tamaki Book Café.
[00:21] Conan
    What? You invited us here
    just to tell us that?
[00:24] Mitsuhiko
    What do you mean by that?!
[00:26] Mitsuhiko
    I was really looking forward to that pudding!
[00:29] Yujiro
    Mitsuhiko-kun, are you saying
    one of us is the culprit?
SIGN    Tamaki Yujiro (65)
    Tamaki Book Café Owner
[00:34] Mitsuhiko
    That's right.
[00:36] Ayumi
    Who is it?
[00:38] Mitsuhiko
    Recall the order in which we were
    sitting when the crime took place.
[00:44] Mitsuhiko
    I, the victim, was sitting
    at the end of the table.
SIGN    Mitsuhiko
[00:46] Mitsuhiko
    Conan-kun sat next to me, and
    Ayumi-chan sat next to him.
SIGN    Conan
SIGN    Ayumi
[00:49] Mitsuhiko
    Across from me was Genta-kun, and
    sat next to him was Haibara-san.
SIGN    Genta
SIGN    Haibara
[00:55] Mitsuhiko
    In other words, only Conan-kun
    or Genta-kun could've done it.
[00:59] Conan
    It wasn't me.
[01:01] Ichiro
    But, Mitsuhiko-kun, didn't you notice
    when your pudding was stolen?
SIGN    Tamaki Ichiro (35)
    Yujiro's Son
SIGN    Yoshikawa Michiko (27)
    Ichiro's Fiancée
[01:06] Mitsuhiko
    No, because the culprit cleverly
    directed my gaze away from my pudding.
[01:11] Conan
    How?
[01:13] Mitsuhiko
    Well...
[01:16] Mitsuhiko
    Using this!
[01:19] Mitsuhiko
    The thief stole my pudding while I
    was distracted by the train whistle.
[01:25] Mitsuhiko
    Isn't that right, pudding
    thief Kojima Genta-kun?
[01:30] Genta
    It wasn't me!
[01:33] Mitsuhiko
    Don't play dumb.
[01:35] Mitsuhiko
    The meat sauce from my pasta
    is on your right sleeve.
[01:41] Mitsuhiko
    You probably accidentally got it on
    you while reaching for my pudding.
[01:46] Mitsuhiko
    You can't talk your way out
    of this one, Genta-kun!
[01:53] Genta
    I'm sorry, Mitsuhiko.
[01:56] Genta
    The eel bowl meal I ordered
    didn't come with pudding.
[02:00] Genta
    But there was a tasty pudding
    right in front of me.
[02:04] Genta
    I couldn't help myself.
[02:08] Mitsuhiko
    Hate the sinner, not the sin.
[02:11] Mitsuhiko
    You should reflect on your actions.
[02:13] Genta
    M-Mitsuhiko, I'm sorry!
[02:18] Conan
    I definitely couldn't have solved this case.
[02:22] Conan
    Way to go, Mitsuhiko.
[02:24] Mitsuhiko
    This case was a piece of cake.
[02:27] Mitsuhiko
    After all, I am...
[02:31] Mitsuhiko
    the Great Detective Mitsuhiko!
[02:45] Conan
    Finally arriving after
    swaying back and forth,
[02:47] Conan
    draw close to mysteries and
    begin deducing the truth!
[02:49] Conan
    A huge collection of books incites a case!
[02:50] Conan
    An unreadable trick becomes unraveled!
[02:52] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[02:54] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[02:56] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!

[04:31] Conan
    "The Whistling Bookstore 3!"
[04:39] Omura
    This is pretty well written.
[04:41] Mitsuhiko
    Really?
[04:43] Omura
    Yeah.
SIGN    Omura Kosuke (38)
    Author
[04:44] Omura
    The solution is solid.
[04:46] Omura
    It's impressive that a first-year
    grade schooler came up with this.
[04:50] Genta
    Why'd you have to make me the pudding thief?!
[04:54] Genta
    I never did that.
[04:56] Mitsuhiko
    Who cares? It's my novel.
[05:00] Omura
    You're right. This isn't a test.
[05:03] Omura
    You can write whatever you want.
[05:05] Mitsuhiko
    See?
[05:07] Genta
    Read mine next.
[05:09] Genta
    I wrote a story about eel
    bowls raining from the sky.
[05:12] Ayumi
    Read mine, too.
[05:14] Ayumi
    My story's about shrinking and
    making friends with dolls.
[05:18] Genta
    Eel bowls from the sky first!
[05:21] Ayumi
    Dolls!
[05:22] Genta
    Eel bowls!
[05:24] Omura
    Now, now. I'll read them
    one at a time. Just relax.
[05:30] Conan
    What are you writing?
[05:32] Haibara
    It's a secret. How about you?
[05:35] Conan
    Huh?
[05:37] Conan
    I can't come up with anything.
[05:41] Conan
    I'm impressed they could.
[05:46] Conan
    Sorry for getting in your way, Michiko-san.
[05:49] Michiko
    What?
[05:50] Michiko
    Oh, it's not like that. It's no trouble at all.
[05:54] Michiko
    I'm the one who invited you here.
[05:57] Michiko
    I'm just a little jealous.
[06:00] Conan
    Jealous?
[06:02] Michiko
    It's been a few weeks since
    I started writing novels,
[06:06] Michiko
    but those kids get far more praise than I do.
[06:08] Haibara
    Maybe children have an easier time
    coming up with original stories
[06:11] Haibara
    thanks to their flexible imaginations.
[06:15] Conan
    Flexible imaginations, huh?
[06:17] Conan
    By the way, Michiko-san, why did you decide
    to begin attending a writing class?
[06:22] Michiko
    You're asking me?
[06:23] Conan
    Yeah.
[06:24] Michiko
    I've always liked books,
[06:27] Michiko
    but I began reading even more after I
    started working at Tamaki Book Café.
[06:32] Michiko
    It made me want to write one of my own.
[06:36] Conan
    Huh, really?
[06:38] Michiko
    My goal is to have my own novel on the shelf.
[06:41] Michiko
    No, that's not all.
[06:43] Michiko
    I want to write a best-seller that sells
    a million copies and win an award, too.
[06:49] Nojima
    How's it looking?
[06:51] Omura
    Ah, Nojima-san. Everyone's
    written solid stories.
[06:55] Nojima
    I'm glad to hear that.
[06:57] Nojima
    I'm more interested in having you
    write a hit novel, Omura-sensei.
[07:02] Nojima
    Otherwise you'll never be able to
    stop teaching this writing class.
[07:07] Omura
    Right...
[07:09] Conan
    Omura-sensei is a real author?
[07:12] Michiko
    He is.
[07:13] Michiko
    He's already published three books.
[07:16] Conan
    I see.
[07:18] Conan
    Who's that man?
[07:20] Michiko
    That's Nojima Ryoji-san.
SIGN    Nojima Ryoji (65)
    Book Collector
[07:23] Michiko
    He owns this building.
[07:24] Michiko
    I heard he's something
    like Omura-san's sponsor.
[07:28] Conan
    Huh.
[07:31] Nojima
    Rubbish.
[07:35] Genta
    What was that for?! That's my novel!
[07:38] Nojima
    You haven't got the fundamentals
    of storytelling down!
[07:40] Nojima
    I bet you haven't even read the classics!
[07:43] Omura
    Now, now, Nojima-san.
[07:45] Omura
    You're speaking to a child.
[07:47] Nojima
    Once someone has taken up the pen,
    it doesn't matter if they're a child.
[07:50] Nojima
    There will be no half-assed
    writing in this classroom!
[07:54] Nojima
    Looks like you need a little educating.
[07:57] Nojima
    I'll show you what a real story looks like.
[08:01] Nojima
    Nagisa-san, we're going
    down into the basement.
SIGN    Takeuchi Nagisa (45)
    Housekeeper
[08:04] Nagisa
    Yes, sir.
[08:21] Genta
    Wow!
SIGN    Temperature
    Humidity
[08:28] Conan
    It's even air-conditioned.
[08:31] Conan
    He takes really good care of his books.
[08:36] ---
    Hey, look...
[08:37] Nojima
    Be careful.
[08:38] Nojima
    That book is worth six million yen.
[08:48] Nojima
    You should begin by reading
    these for reference.
[08:52] Michiko
    Are these rare books as well?
[08:56] Nojima
    The cheapest one is worth
    about a million yen.
[09:00] Mitsuhiko
    I'm too scared to read
    such an expensive book.
[09:04] Nojima
    It doesn't matter if they get dirty.
[09:06] Nojima
    Books have value when they're read.
[09:08] Nojima
    And only first editions should ever be read.
[09:11] Ayumi
    But...
[09:11] Nojima
    Quit complaining and read!
[09:13] Nojima
    I'm not letting you out of this room until
    you've read the books I've given you!
[09:17] All
    Okay!
[09:28] Nojima
    Put them back on the shelf
    when you're done reading.
[09:36] Omura
    I'll be upstairs.
[09:38] Nagisa
    Understood.
[09:53] Genta
    I finally finished.
[09:55] Nojima
    Hey, that's not where that
    book goes! It goes over here!
[09:58] Nojima
    And how dare you place it upside down?
[10:01] Nojima
    Who raised you?
[10:04] Genta
    Sorry!
[10:07] Nojima
    Good.
[10:07] Genta
    Yes, sir!
[10:10] Nojima
    What? Are you hungry?
[10:13] Genta
    Yeah.
[10:15] Nojima
    I suppose that can't be helped.
    Nagisa-san, prepare us some lunch.
[10:19] Nagisa
    Yes, sir.
[10:23] Genta
    This looks great!
[10:24] Ayumi
    You're right.
[10:26] Mitsuhiko
    Let's dig in.
[10:28] All
    Thanks for the food!
[10:37] Conan
    What's wrong?
[10:39] Michiko
    It's nothing.
[10:41] Michiko
    I seem to have cut my finger on a book.
[10:44] Ayumi
    I've got band-aids.
[10:47] Michiko
    Thank you, Ayumi-chan.
[10:50] Nojima
    We'll keep reading once
    you're finished eating.
[10:53] Omura
    Nojima-san, these children
    are still in class.
[10:56] Nojima
    Do you presume to order me around, thief?
[11:02] Omura
    H-Hey, don't bring that up here.
[11:05] Nojima
    Silence! How dare a lowly
    author talk back to me?!
[11:13] Nagisa
    Sir, it's not good for your
    health to get so excited.
[11:18] Nojima
    Don't tell me what to do. I'm—
[11:27] Conan
    Michiko-san?!
SIGN    Toto University Hospital
[11:36] Ichiro
    Michiko!
[11:38] Ichiro
    Are you okay, Michiko?
[11:41] Michiko
    Ichiro-san...
[11:43] Michiko
    I'm sorry for making you worry.
[11:47] Ichiro
    I'm glad you're all right.
[11:49] Michiko
    I'm fine now. I just wasn't feeling well.
[11:56] Michiko
    Is something wrong?
[11:59] Yujiro
    Michiko-san, we just got done
    speaking to the police and doctors.
[12:05] Michiko
    The police?
[12:07] Yujiro
    Michiko-san, apparently it's
    possible that you've been poisoned.
[12:13] Michiko
    What?
[12:27] Mitsuhiko
    Um, Detective Takagi?
[12:29] Mitsuhiko
    Is it true that Michiko-san was poisoned?
[12:33] Takagi
    Well, actually...
[12:35] Forensics
    Detective Takagi.
[12:36] Takagi
    Yes?
[12:37] Forensics
    We didn't find poison in the food
    or beverage the victim consumed.
[12:42] Takagi
    Really?
[12:43] Forensics
    Yes.
[12:45] Takagi
    Then when and how was she poisoned?
[12:48] Conan
    Detective Takagi.
[12:50] Conan
    Maybe the poison was on a book.
[12:54] Takagi
    A book?
[12:57] Conan
    Michiko-san said she cut her finger
    on a book and sucked on the cut.
[13:00] Conan
    Maybe that's when it happened.
[13:07] Takagi
    Well?
[13:08] Forensics
    We didn't find any poison on these books.
[13:11] Forensics
    But we did find a highly-concentrated
    poison on this one.
[13:16] Takagi
    Then it must've been because
    she touched that book.
[13:20] Takagi
    Nojima-san, how is this book stored?
[13:24] Nojima
    It was simply left in here,
    but the entrance was locked.
[13:29] Takagi
    Who has access to this library?
[13:32] Nojima
    Nagisa-san and I had keys.
[13:35] Nojima
    But since we'd unlock it for anyone who
    asked, Omura-sensei was often in here as well.
[13:42] Omura
    That's right.
[13:43] Takagi
    Which means all three of you had
    the opportunity to poison the book.
[13:49] Mitsuhiko
    Come to think of it, wasn't it Nojima-san
    who handed her the book to read?
[13:54] Ayumi
    Yeah.
[13:55] Takagi
    Really? Is that true?
[13:57] Genta
    It's true.
[13:59] Takagi
    Which means, Nojima-san, it's
    likely that you poisoned her.
[14:04] Nojima
    Wait, wait. I handed out
    novels as writing references.
[14:10] Nojima
    But that book is an encyclopedia.
[14:13] Nojima
    I didn't hand that to anyone.
[14:16] Takagi
    Omura-san, is that true?
[14:17] Conan
    I feel like I've seen that book before.
[14:18] Omura
    Yes. It's true that Nojima-san
    handed out novels.
[14:22] Takagi
    I see.
[14:24] Conan
    Paris green...
[14:25] Takagi
    What?
[14:26] Conan
    Isn't the color of that book Paris green?
[14:29] Takagi
    P-Paris green?
[14:31] Conan
    Yeah. We'd know for certain if
    we asked an old book expert.
[14:36] Takagi
    An old book expert?
[14:41] Takagi
    Well, Tamaki-san?
[14:43] Yujiro
    There's no mistaking it.
[14:45] Yujiro
    Like Conan-kun said, this is Paris green.
[14:49] Conan
    I knew it. I felt like I'd seen
    it in an online news story before.
[14:53] Takagi
    So, what is Paris green exactly?
[14:57] Yujiro
    It's the artificial pigment
    used in this book's binding.
[15:02] Yujiro
    Until the second half of the 19th Century,
[15:04] Yujiro
    a powerful poison was used to
    produce this vivid green color.
[15:10] Takagi
    What? Poison?
[15:12] Yujiro
    Yes.
[15:13] Yujiro
    According to one theory, Napoleon
[15:16] Yujiro
    was killed by a poison exuded
    from Paris green wallpaper.
[15:21] Mitsuhiko
    What? Napoleon?
[15:24] Yujiro
    It's just a theory.
[15:27] Takagi
    In other words, the book
    itself was a poisonous book.
[15:32] Takagi
    Nojima-san, were you aware of this?
[15:34] Nojima
    No, that's news to me.
[15:36] Nojima
    I had no idea it was such a dangerous book.
[15:39] Takagi
    Which means it seems likely that
    this was an accident that occurred
[15:45] Takagi
    when the victim unconsciously
    touched this book.
[15:47] Ayumi
    Come to think of it, Michiko-san was
    looking at lots of books in here.
[15:51] Genta
    Yeah.
[15:53] Conan
    The question is why did
    Michiko-san touch that book?
[16:05] Conan
    What's this scratch?
[16:14] Conan
    This is blood.
[16:17] Conan
    Then Michiko-san must've cut
    her finger on this book.
[16:21] Conan
    But what's it doing here?
[16:24] Conan
    What's this?
[16:29] Conan
    This indentation... Could it be?
[16:36] Conan
    I see.
[16:38] Conan
    So that's how it is!
SIGN    Toto University Hospital
[16:41] Nojima
    Michiko-san, I'm sorry.
[16:44] Nojima
    I had no idea there was a
    poisonous book in that library.
[16:48] Michiko
    Don't worry about it.
[16:50] Michiko
    I didn't know it was there either.
[16:54] Nojima
    I'm really sorry.
[16:56] Nojima
    I know this can't make up for it,
[16:59] Nojima
    but I hope they'll at least make your
    stay in the hospital less boring.
[17:02] Nagisa
    For you.
[17:05] Michiko
    Are you sure I can have all of these?
[17:07] Michiko
    Thank you.
[17:09] Nojima
    We should get going.
[17:11] Nagisa
    Excuse us.
[17:18] Omura
    Michiko-san, let's keep working on
    your novel once you're feeling better.
[17:22] Michiko
    Sure. I'll come up with ideas while I'm here.
[17:26] Omura
    Bye.
[17:30] Michiko
    Conan-kun, what is it?
[17:33] Conan
    Michiko-san, did you touch a
    German book in that library?
[17:38] Michiko
    What? Yeah, I did.
[17:42] Conan
    Why did you do that?
[17:45] Michiko
    Something caught my attention.
[17:47] Michiko
    I cut my finger when I did, though.
[17:51] Conan
    Was the thing that caught your attention...?
[17:55] Nojima
    Ah, this is it.
[17:57] Nojima
    I've been looking for this book.
[18:00] Nojima
    How considerate of you.
[18:03] Nojima
    Damn it.
[18:06] Nojima
    I cut myself on the paper.
[18:08] Conan
    Don't lick that!
[18:11] Nojima
    You're the boy from this afternoon.
[18:12] Nojima
    What do you mean, don't lick that?
[18:15] Nojima
    Is this book...?
[18:17] Conan
    No, that book isn't poisonous or anything.
[18:21] Conan
    But if you lick your finger, what happened
    to Michiko-san will happen to you.
[18:25] Nojima
    What?
[18:26] Conan
    Right?
[18:28] Conan
    You rigged the book and poisoned Michiko-san.
[18:33] Conan
    Right, Omura Kosuke-san the author?
[18:38] Omura
    What are you talking about?
[18:39] Omura
    I simply found the book
    Nojima-san was looking for.
[18:43] Conan
    Then what's this doing here?
[18:48] Nojima
    What is that?
[18:50] Conan
    A box cutter blade.
[18:51] Conan
    Omura-san hid this poisoned
    blade inside the book.
[18:56] Conan
    He planned to poison you when you cut your
    finger removing the book from the shelf.
[19:01] Conan
    Since there are poisonous
    books in this library,
[19:03] Conan
    he could make it look
    like an accidental death.
[19:09] Nojima
    Omura! Michiko-san wasn't enough?
    You had to poison me, too?
[19:14] Conan
    You're wrong.
[19:15] Nojima
    What?
[19:16] Conan
    You were Omura-san's only target.
[19:22] Conan
    Michiko-san had the bad luck of
    falling for Omura-san's trap.
[19:27] Nojima
    How did he plan to make me
    pick up the poisoned book?
[19:32] Conan
    Probably by doing this.
[19:36] Conan
    Nojima-san, you scolded Genta-kun
    this afternoon, remember?
[19:40] Nojima
    And how dare you place it upside down?
[19:42] Nojima
    Who raised you?
[19:45] Conan
    By placing the poisoned book upside down...
[19:49] Nojima
    He thought I'd notice and pick it up.
[19:52] Conan
    Yeah.
[19:53] Conan
    It caught Michiko-san's attention because
    she works at the book café, so she picked it up
[19:58] Conan
    without realizing the book was poisoned.
[20:11] Conan
    The scratch on the shelf
    from the blade that was made
[20:16] Conan
    when she flipped the book over proves it.
[20:18] Nojima
    But Nagisa-san could've
    fallen for that trap, too.
[20:23] Conan
    That's why he used a German book.
[20:25] Nojima
    Even if Nagisa-san can't read German,
[20:29] Nojima
    she'd at least notice if
    a book were upside down.
[20:32] Conan
    There are books from all
    over the world here, right?
[20:35] Nojima
    Y-Yeah...
[20:37] Conan
    When placed right side up,
SIGN    American
[20:39] Conan
    the titles on the spines of American
    books are read from top to bottom,
SIGN    European
[20:44] Conan
    but European books are
    read from the bottom up.
[20:48] Conan
    Because there are Western
    books in this library
[20:51] Conan
    whose spines are read from the
    top down and the bottom up,
[20:55] Conan
    at a glance, it's hard to know
    which ones are upside down.
[20:58] Nojima
    I see.
[21:00] Nojima
    But, Omura-sensei, why poison me?
[21:04] Nojima
    I've always supported you.
[21:07] Omura
    Supported me?
[21:08] Omura
    Don't be absurd!
[21:10] Omura
    You've worked me like a dog!
[21:13] Omura
    I'm sorry for stealing your books
    and selling them when I was broke.
[21:18] Omura
    But you worked me like
    a slave because of that!
[21:26] Omura
    I had reached my limit.
[22:58] Conan
    Michiko-san, you're feeling better.
[23:00] Michiko
    Yes, thankfully.
[23:03] Ayumi
    I'm so glad.
[23:05] Michiko
    Oh, right. I have a present for all of you.
[23:10] Genta
    Is it snacks?
[23:11] Mitsuhiko
    Judging by the shape, it's probably a book.
[23:14] Haibara
    We've seen this before.
[23:17] Michiko
    Open them.
[23:19] Conan
    Is it another first edition Sherlock Holmes?
SIGN    Falling In Love With Love
SIGN    Yoshikawa Michiko
[23:29] Michiko
    I finished my novel since I didn't have
    anything else to do at the hospital.
[23:34] Michiko
    I took the plunge and self-published.
[23:40] Conan
    Of course. That would be
    too good to be true...
