    Detective Conan Episode 130
    "The Blank Year (Part One)"
[00:00] Conan
    [OP]
SIGN    Within the Metropolitan Area, Koneru City
[00:01] Kogoro
    Now then. I finished my investigative report.
[00:04] Kogoro
    Here in Koneru City...
[00:07] Kogoro
    Maybe I'll go for a drink this afternoon.
[00:18] Kogoro
    What happened? Are you all right?
[00:20] Esaka
    While I was waiting for the light to
    change, someone suddenly pushed my back.
[00:26] Esaka
    I was nearly hit by a car.
[00:29] Kogoro
    Did anyone see the culprit?
[00:33] Kogoro
    Can you think of any reason
    someone would want to kill you?
[00:35] Kogoro
    Does anyone have a grudge against you?
[00:38] Esaka
    I can't think of anything.
[00:44] Esaka
    No, maybe I did something to
    them during my blank year.
[00:51] Kogoro
    Blank year?
[00:54] Esaka
    Are you Mori Kogoro-san, the great detective?
[00:58] Kogoro
    Yes.
[00:58] Esaka
    My name is Esaka Ritsuo.
SIGN    Esaka Ritsuo (28)
    Man with Memory Loss
[01:01] Esaka
    Please find the past that's
    been erased from my memory.
[01:06] Kogoro
    Find the past?
[01:21] Conan
    Finally arriving after
    swaying back and forth,
[01:23] Conan
    draw close to mysteries and
    begin deducing the truth!
[01:25] Conan
    A whole year lost!
[01:26] Conan
    With his life in danger, he
    searches for his memories!
[01:28] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[01:30] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[01:32] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!

[03:13] Kogoro
    What do you mean, you lost
    a year's worth of memories?
[03:20] Esaka
    It happened one evening last week.
[03:23] Esaka
    Before I knew it, I'd lost
    consciousness at the station.
[03:27] Esaka
    Apparently I slipped down
    the stairs and hit my head.
[03:33] Esaka
    When I returned to my workplace...
[03:38] Boss A
    Esaka, what have you been doing until now?
[03:42] Boss A
    You disappeared for a whole
    year after going out on a job.
[03:46] Esaka
    A year?
[03:50] Esaka
    That was when I first learned about it.
[03:53] Esaka
    I thought I'd left that morning
    and returned that evening,
[03:58] Esaka
    but an entire year had actually passed.
[04:06] Conan
    Something must've made him suffer
    memory loss while he was out on a job.
[04:12] Kogoro
    And one year later, something
    cured him of his amnesia.
[04:18] Esaka
    But it was too late.
[04:20] Esaka
    I was fired a long time ago,
[04:23] Esaka
    and when I returned to my apartment,
    someone else was living there.
[04:29] Kogoro
    Like a sad Urashima Taro.
[04:32] Esaka
    But I can't recall where I was or
    what I was doing for a whole year.
[04:39] Conan
    So you regained your previous memories and
    lost your memory of the past year instead.
[04:45] Kogoro
    Just like in that old movie "Random Harvest".
[04:50] Esaka
    After thinking about it for a week,
    I thought these might lead somewhere.
[04:54] Esaka
    I examined their usage history.

[04:57] Esaka
    I went all over the place every day, but I
    always left from and returned to Koneru Station.
[05:05] Kogoro
    Maybe you lived in Koneru City.
[05:07] Esaka
    I thought so, too, so I was walking around
    in the hope that I would remember something.
[05:12] Esaka
    That's when it happened.
[05:20] Esaka
    Maybe I did something to
    incur someone's enmity.
[05:26] Esaka
    But I still want to know how I lived.
[05:30] Conan
    It is eerie not to know.
[05:34] Kogoro
    Koneru City, right? Let's
    talk another look around.
[05:38] Esaka
    Mori-san...
[05:39] Kogoro
    I, Mori Kogoro, shall find the year
    that vanished from your memories.

[05:50] Conan
    One year is exactly twice as
    long as this person was missing for.
[05:54] Esaka
    Oh, right. This guy
    suddenly disappeared, too.
[05:58] Kogoro
    He was found dead in the mountains
    of Wakabadai three days ago.
[06:04] Kogoro
    He was partially skeletonized,
    but he'd clearly been murdered.
SIGN    Outside the Metropolitan Area, Wakabadai
[06:08] Kogoro
    It didn't take long to identify him as
    Kisugi Akira, who'd been missing for six months.
[06:15] Kogoro
    Apparently they're having trouble finding
    the culprit who killed and buried him.
[06:19] Kogoro
    He was a con artist, and a lot of
    people had grudges against him.
[06:24] Esaka
    Sounds like he was a bad person.
[06:27] Kogoro
    Well, not that he matters.
[06:32] Sign
    Koneru Station
[06:42] Esaka
    I can't remember anything,
    no matter what I look at.
[06:46] Conan
    But if we find someone who knows you, we
    can ask them about your blank year, right?
[06:53] Kogoro
    That's true.
[06:55] Kogoro
    If you showed up in this
    neighborhood with memory loss,
[06:59] Kogoro
    then maybe you visited that police box.
[07:06] Kogoro
    Is that your police box?
[07:10] Police A
    Yes. What about it?
[07:13] Kogoro
    I believe this man visited
    you about a year ago.
[07:22] Police A
    I don't recognize him.
[07:24] Police A
    I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry.
[07:29] Kogoro
    We'll have to search on foot then.
[07:33] Kogoro
    Even though we split up and asked
    around, we came up empty-handed.
[07:37] Kogoro
    There is a way to figure out what happened during
    your blank year besides finding someone who knows.
[07:45] Conan
    How?
[07:54] Esaka
    What was that for?
[07:56] Kogoro
    It's shock treatment.
    You remember now, right?
[08:03] Kogoro
    We could try slapping you really hard, too.
[08:08] Conan
    He seems like he'd actually do it.
[08:11] Esaka
    I know I'm the one who asked for
    your help, but you've done enough.
[08:15] Esaka
    Let's go, Mori-san.
[08:20] Kogoro
    You're giving up?
[08:22] Esaka
    I'm afraid to know after all.
[08:25] Esaka
    If someone tried to kill me, I
    must've done something really awful.
[08:31] Conan
    Maybe it's just a misunderstanding.
[08:35] Conan
    It's hard to believe he's
    someone who'd make enemies.
[08:39] Kogoro
    That's why we need to find
    your past, Esaka-kun.
[08:43] Kogoro
    If someone has a grudge against you because
    of a misunderstanding, you need to clear it up.
[08:50] Esaka
    Maybe it's not a
    misunderstanding! I'm scared!
[08:53] Kogoro
    Esaka-kun!
[08:53] Conan
    Esaka-san!
[09:10] Kogoro

[09:23] Conan
    There was no point in asking him
    since he was a fake officer.
[09:26] Kogoro
    You're right. All right, let's go.
[09:29] Esaka
    I-I said forget it!
[09:31] Kogoro
    No!
[09:41] Police B
    Yeah, I remember him.
[09:44] Kogoro
    He visited you a year ago?
[09:47] Police B
    Apparently he was bewildered
    and suffering from memory loss
[09:51] Police B
    according to the person who brought him here.
[09:54] Police B
    Maybe he was robbed,
[09:58] Police B
    but he didn't have any identification
    on him or even a phone.
[10:00] Police B
    I checked the missing persons reports, too.
[10:03] Kogoro
    But you didn't find him.
[10:05] Kogoro
    After all, more than 80,000
    people go missing a year.
[10:09] Conan
    What happened to Esaka-san after that?
[10:13] Police B
    The person who brought him here, Kinbara
    Takuzo-san, said he'd take care of him.
[10:20] Kogoro
    If we can find that person, we'll know
    what happened during your blank year.
[10:24] Conan
    And probably whoever holds a grudge
    against you over a misunderstanding.
[10:29] Esaka
    I'm afraid of a possible misunderstanding,
[10:32] Esaka
    but if Kinbara-san took care of
    me, then I need to thank him.

[10:55] Kinbara
    Taro-kun?
[10:57] Conan
    Looks like this guy is Kinbara-san.
[11:00] Kogoro
    But didn't he just call him Taro-kun?
[11:06] Tae
    Thank you for waiting.
[11:08] Tae
    Taro-kun?
[11:10] Tae
    Where have you been this past week?
[11:13] Esaka
    Taro? My name is Esaka Ritsuo.
[11:19] Tae
    Could it be?
[11:21] Kinbara
    Your amnesia's been cured?
[11:24] Conan
    Since not having a name for you was inconvenient,
    they must've temporarily named you Taro-san.
[11:30] Kinbara
    Yeah, Koneru Taro-kun.
[11:34] Tae
    That's right.
[11:39] Esaka
    I'm sorry, but I have no memory at all
[11:44] Esaka
    of being called that or
    you taking care of me.
[11:49] Kinbara
    What?
SIGN    Kinbara Takuzo (71)

[11:55] Kinbara
    I see. I understand.
SIGN    Kinbara Tae (70)
    Takuzo's Wife
[11:58] Tae
    Your amnesia's been cured, and instead...
[12:03] Kanehara
    You lost your memories of the past year.
[12:06] Kogoro
    We came because we wanted to know
    how Esaka-kun spent that year.
[12:12] Kanehara
    So that's how it is. In that case,
    let's invite them over, too.
[12:18] Tae
    I'm sure they'll come running.
[12:30] Esaka
    A-Are they angry?
[12:32] Esaka
    Then there's no mistaking it.
[12:33] Esaka
    I must've done something
    to incur their enmity!
[12:41] Kogoro
    Does everyone here have a
    grudge against Esaka-kun?
[12:57] Hida
    How dare you suddenly vanish like that.
[13:00] Hida
    We've been worried about you this past week.
[13:03] Esaka
    Worried?
[13:06] Toko
    But I'm glad you're all right.
[13:09] Mamoru
    And that you remembered who
    you are and where you're from.
[13:13] Hida
    It's a little sad that you
    don't remember us, though.
[13:19] Esaka
    I'm sorry.
[13:23] Kinbara
    Let me reintroduce you. This is Hida
    Keisuke-kun, the construction company president.
SIGN    Hida Keisuke (53)

[13:27] Hida
    Welcome back, Taro-kun.

    Cram school student Chimura Mamoru-kun.
SIGN    Chimura Mamoru (20)
    Cram School Student
[13:38] Mamoru
    It's kind of embarrassing
    to be formally reintroduced.
[13:41] Kinbara
    These three from the neighborhood took
    pity on you and your memory loss,
[13:45] Kinbara
    so they helped out here and there.
[13:47] Tae
    They kept encouraging and supporting you.
[13:50] Hida
    You did more than any of us, Kinbara-san.
[13:52] Hida
    You looked after him since you consider
    yourself the steward of the neighborhood.
[13:56] Mamoru
    All I did was ask my dad for a little favor.
[13:59] Kinbara
    Mamoru-kun's father let you
    live in an apartment he owns,
[14:03] Kinbara
    and you worked at Hida-kun's
    construction company.
[14:06] Hida
    At construction sites all around the city.
[14:11] Conan
    So that's why you went all
    kinds of places every day.
[14:14] Tae
    Toko-san frequently brought
    you meals when she cooked.
[14:20] Toko
    It's embarrassing. I'm not much of a cook.
[14:25] Conan
    So Esaka-san owes these
    people a great deal, too.
[14:31] Kogoro
    Sounds like you were living with support
[14:34] Kogoro
    from the goodwill of the kind-hearted
    Kinbaras and these three.
[14:39] Esaka
    Yeah.
[14:49] Esaka
    Thank you for the past year.
[14:57] Toko
    I'm so glad you're doing well.
[15:02] Esaka
    I don't know how to thank you.
[15:05] Kogoro
    We've learned how you spent the past year,
[15:08] Kogoro
    but one question remains.
[15:12] Kogoro
    This afternoon, Esaka-kun was nearly
    killed by someone here in Koneru City.
[15:21] Esaka
    Did anyone have a grudge against me?
[15:27] Hida
    Of course not.
[15:29] Kinbara
    People loved you. You did nothing
    to make people hate you.
[15:33] Toko
    That's right. You're
    overthinking it, Taro-san.
[15:37] Kogoro
    Then it really must be a misunderstanding.
[15:40] Hida
    That's inconceivable, too.
[15:42] Hida
    You're probably imagining that
    someone tried to kill you.
[15:45] Kinbara
    I can only assume that's the case.
[15:47] Kogoro
    But...
[15:48] Esaka
    Maybe it was just my imagination.
[15:52] Conan
    If the people close to you say so, then
    maybe nobody has a grudge against you.
[15:58] Kogoro
    Maybe you weren't pushed.
[16:00] Kogoro
    Maybe someone just happened to bump into you.
[16:06] Hida
    That's right! More importantly,
    we need to celebrate.
[16:10] Toko
    After all, you're doing well.
[16:12] Mamoru
    And you've recovered from your amnesia.
[16:18] Kinbara
    Do you drink?
[16:19] Kogoro
    I enjoy a bit now and then.
[16:23] Conan
    Oh, you enjoy it endlessly.
[16:31] Conan
    We don't have to wait for Kinbara-san's wife?
[16:35] Toko
    Tae-san's frail. She's
    always in and out of bed.
[16:39] Esaka
    I made someone like that
    worry this past week?
[16:45] Esaka
    If only I'd visited sooner.
[16:47] Kogoro
    Aren't you glad you didn't run away earlier?
[16:51] Hida
    You tried to run?
[16:53] Esaka
    Mori-san!
[16:59] Amano
    No, Shi-chan! No!
[17:02] Amano
    I'm sorry.
[17:05] Amano
    Come on.
[17:08] Esaka
    I don't like dogs.
[17:11] Esaka
    Especially not barking
    dogs like Shishimaru.
[17:16] Esaka
    A stray bit me on the butt
    when I was in kindergarten.
[17:20] Esaka
    Since then, I've been afraid of dogs.
[17:23] Kanehara
    Shishimaru?
[17:25] Kanehara
    You remembered Amano-san's dog Shishimaru?
[17:33] Conan
    You may not like dogs, but one
    helped you remember something.
[17:37] Kogoro
    See? Shock therapy is effective.
[17:42] Esaka
    The memories that had been completely
    closed off to me are returning.
[17:46] Sign
    Yakitori Izakaya
[18:01] Esaka
    It's no use.
[18:02] Esaka
    I thought I'd be able to remember something
    besides the dog's name, but I can't.
[18:07] Kanehara
    It's all right. You don't
    have to try so hard. Right?
[18:12] All
    Yeah.
[18:17] Hida
    We called your phone a bunch
    of times, but no one answered.
[18:22] Esaka
    I think I lost it when I fell
    down the station stairs.
[18:26] Conan
    Mister, you lose your phone all
    the time when you get drunk.
[18:39] Mamoru
    It's rumbling out there.
    It'll probably strike again.
[18:44] Esaka
    Thunder...
[18:45] Conan
    You don't like thunder either?
[18:48] Esaka
    It's not that.
[18:49] Esaka
    I felt like I remembered a scene
    of particular interest to me.
[18:54] Esaka
    I wonder what it was. Thunder... dogs...
[18:58] Conan
    Dogs have something to do with it, too?
[19:00] Kogoro
    Then that's not a memory, it's a desire.
[19:04] Kogoro
    You wish dogs would be struck by
    lightning and burnt to a crisp.
[19:11] Toko
    How cruel, Mori-san. How could you wish
    for dogs to be struck by lightning?
[19:16] Kogoro
    Oh, no. I was just speaking for Esaka-kun.
[19:20] Esaka
    Not even I'd wish for that.
[19:23] Kinbara
    I'm going to pop home for a minute.
[19:26] Kinbara
    I'm worried if she's remembered
    to take her medicine.
[19:29] Hida
    Kinbara-san really loves his wife.
[19:32] Conan
    I see.
[19:35] Mamoru
    It looks like rain.
[19:37] Kinbara
    There's that, too, so I thought I'd
    go get umbrellas for everyone.
[19:45] Esaka
    He really is a nice person.
[19:48] Hida
    That's why he took care of
    you when you were at a loss.
[19:52] Esaka
    Not just Kinbara-san. All of you, too.
[19:59] Esaka
    I wish I could remember.
[20:01] Kogoro
    You will eventually.
[20:04] Conan
    Something will make you remember.
[20:17] Esaka
    They're right.
[20:19] Esaka
    I'm sure something will make me remember.

    Maybe he's been able to remember something.
[21:21] Conan
    Should we try shock therapy
    again if he hasn't?
[21:26] Kogoro
    That's one way to do it.
[21:30] Kogoro
    Didn't he say it's up ahead?

[21:47] Kogoro
    C-Could it be?
[21:50] Conan
    Esaka-san?
[21:52] Takagi
    Then your acquaintance must be...
[21:54] Megure
    The autopsy revealed that he died last
    night around 7PM after consuming a poison.
[22:00] Megure
    Judging by the circumstances, it
    was almost certainly a suicide.
[22:03] Kogoro
    Suicide?
[22:07] Megure
    Apparently he regretted
    some bad choices he made.
[22:12] Kogoro
    So he killed himself?
[22:17] Conan
    Really? Was this really a suicide?

    What we believe is a suicide
    note was left on that computer.
[23:48] Sign
    Though it's been six months, I can't escape my guilt.
    The only apology I can offer is death.
[23:50] Conan
    You said it was locked.
[23:53] Conan
    Was the door chain on the
    front door locked, too?
[23:56] Takagi
    No, the chain wasn't locked,
[23:59] Takagi
    but both keys were here.
[24:02] Takagi
    One in the back of the desk drawer,
    and one in that jacket pocket.
[24:07] Conan
    Hey, listen.
