    Detective Conan Episode 1035 "Taiko
    Meijin's Shogi Board (Checkmate)"
[00:00] Conan
    [op]
[00:00] Conan
    [ed]
[00:00] Conan
    On the way home from school,
[00:02] Conan
    Miyamoto Yumi-san forced me to accompany
    her as she tailed Haneda Shukichi Meijin,
[00:06] Conan
    who she suspected of infidelity.
[00:09] Conan
    However, Haneda Meijin was simply
    meeting some young shogi players
[00:14] Conan
    at an apartment for a shogi study session.
[00:20] Hishinuma
    It's unlocked.
[00:22] Hishinuma
    Genda-san?
[00:25] Hishinuma
    G-Genda-san!
[00:27] Shoko
    Hishinuma-san?
[00:30] Hishinuma
    Genda-san, are you all right?! Genda-san!
[00:34] Conan
    Additionally, a third victim appeared in what the
    police determined were a series of serial murders.
[00:42] Sato
    Inspector Yuminaga.
[00:43] Sato
    What's the situation?
[00:45] Yuminaga
    We avoided a total loss, but the resident
    who was inside was burnt to a crisp.
[00:50] Yuminaga
    Since no vital signs were
    detected in the body,
[00:53] Yuminaga
    he seems to have died
    before the fire started.
[00:56] Takagi
    Shortly before?
[00:58] Takagi
    You mean he died after that shogi player
    was murdered at the Beika City apartment?
[01:02] Yuminaga
    I heard from Megure that a shogi
    board was found at the crime scene.
[01:08] Yuminaga
    We actually found one here, too.
[01:12] Yuminaga
    A shogi board missing three legs.
[01:16] Conan
    And furthermore, Taiko Meijin
    was kidnapped by the culprit.
[01:22] Yusaku
    You said Akai-kun's brother seemed
    to have noticed something.
[01:27] Yusaku
    What made you think that?
[01:29] Conan
    When the Meijin moved around the people
    in front of him to get a look at the body,
[01:34] Conan
    he touched the kitchen counter.
[01:37] Conan
    He held his hand as though
    he'd touched something.
[01:40] Yusaku
    What was on top of the kitchen counter then?
[01:43] Conan
    Nothing significant.
[01:46] Conan
    Just two ice trays, a mixer,
    and a toaster, I think.
[01:53] Yusaku
    Sounds like there was a magic tool one of
    them could've used to fabricate an alibi.
[02:01] Conan
    Oh, right!
[02:05] Conan
    It comes to visit after falling asleep!
[02:06] Conan
    Fall in love with logical deduction
    and the pleasure of solving mysteries!
[02:09] Conan
    What will be the final move
    that tears down their alibi?
[02:11] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[02:13] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[02:14] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    Taiko Meijin's Shogi Board

SIGN    Ramen Ogura
[04:14] Akai
    It's been a while, kid,
[04:16] Akai
    since I last met you while wearing this face.
[04:18] Conan
    We didn't have a choice.
[04:20] Conan
    I doubt you had time to disguise yourself.
[04:22] Akai
    Yukiko-san certainly wanted to disguise me.
[04:28] Akai
    So, do you know where my brother is?
[04:32] Conan
    He's probably being held
    at the culprit's home,
[04:37] Conan
    but apparently they moved recently.
[04:40] Conan
    I could only figure out their phone number.
[04:43] Conan
    They answered Yumi-san's call this morning,
[04:46] Conan
    so I thought about calling and
    getting their address out of them,
[04:51] Conan
    but they're on their guard
    and won't answer their phone.
[04:55] Conan
    Naturally, I've been calling the Meijin's
    phone as well, but it's powered off.
[05:00] Akai
    It's possible he expected
    the culprit to capture him,
[05:04] Akai
    and didn't take a phone containing
    information about his close friends.
[05:10] Akai
    Although as his brother, I wish he'd
    consider how not to get captured.
[05:17] Conan
    Who are you calling?
[05:19] Akai
    My brother's other phone.
[05:22] Akai
    We use it exclusively for
    secret conversations.
[05:27] Akai
    Like a certain high school detective,
[05:31] Akai
    officially I don't exist.
SIGN    Brother Incoming Call

    Answer Decline
[05:38] Shukichi
    A-An incoming call.
[05:40] Shukichi
    Must be my brother.
[05:47] Akai
    He picked up.
[05:48] Conan
    Really?
[05:52] Shukichi
    Excuse me.
[05:54] Shukichi
    You seem to be waiting for something.
[05:57] Shukichi
    We're both shogi players.
[05:59] Shukichi
    If you've got nothing better to do...
[06:03] Shukichi
    Would you like to play a game
    of blind shogi with this Meijin?
[06:15] Shukichi
    4-5 P.
[06:17] Culprit
    Same P.
[06:19] Shukichi
    5-5 S.
[06:21] Culprit
    2-4 P.
[06:23] Shukichi
    6-4 P.
[06:25] Culprit
    Same P.
[06:27] Shukichi
    5-6 G.
[06:29] Culprit
    2-5 P.
[06:31] Shukichi
    Well, well. Not bad.
[06:35] Shukichi
    In that case, 6-4 S.
[06:38] Culprit
    5-5 P.
[06:40] Conan
    Th-They're playing blind shogi?
[06:43] Akai
    Yeah.
[06:44] Akai
    My brother must be up to something.
[06:48] Conan
    He might be using the game record of that
    blind shogi game to tell us where he's being held.
[06:54] Akai
    No, that's not necessary.
[06:58] Akai
    Since I could complete
    the call, I can use this.
[07:01] Conan
    A GPS?
[07:03] Akai
    In any case, I'll hurry to this location.
[07:06] Akai
    Could you listen to my brother's blind
    shogi match while explaining to me
[07:14] Akai
    how you identified the culprit?
[07:19] Conan
    The suspects are the following three people who
    said left the victim in the room to go shopping.
[07:26] Conan
    Hishinuma Kosuke, who went to a coffee
    shop to pick up coffee for everyone.
SIGN    Hishinuma Kosuke (24)
    Shogi Player
[07:32] Conan
    Katsumata Mina, who bought
    freshly baked bread at a bakery.
SIGN    Katsumata Mina (23)
    Female Shogi Player
[07:38] Conan
    And Uryu Shoko, who purchased
    freezing cold ice cream.
SIGN    Uryu Shoko (23)
    Female Shogi Player
[07:45] Conan
    Even if they'd wanted to acquire what they
    purchased beforehand to fabricate an alibi...
[07:51] Takagi
    But couldn't you use instant coffee and water
[07:54] Takagi
    from a hot water heater
    to make lukewarm coffee?
[07:57] Hishinuma
    Actually, the water
    heater's broken right now.
[08:02] Hishinuma
    It only dispenses cold water.
[08:04] Takagi
    Then how about an electric kettle?
[08:06] Hishinuma
    I broke that the other day, too.
[08:10] Sato
    What about that stove?
[08:12] Sato
    Couldn't you use that to boil water?
[08:15] Hishinuma
    Well, yeah, but...
[08:17] Shoko
    But when we found Genda-san,
[08:20] Shoko
    Hishinuma-san and Mina put the bags
    they were holding on top of the stove.
[08:26] Shoko
    Why don't you check the bottoms of the bags?
[08:33] Takagi
    There's nothing unusual about them.
[08:36] Shoko
    Then nobody used that stove.
[08:40] Shoko
    We were out shopping for about ten minutes.
[08:44] Shoko
    If someone used the stove to boil water,
    it would stay hot for about 15 minutes.
[08:48] Shoko
    The bags should be burnt or melted.
[08:51] Sato
    I see.
[08:52] Takagi
    Then who bought this bread?
[08:55] Mina
    I-I did.
[08:56] Mina
    I'm really into that bakery's bread.
[09:00] Mina
    The store's nearby, and I always bought some.
[09:03] Takagi
    But you could buy bread
    beforehand, couldn't you?
[09:06] Mina
    I bought hot freshly baked bread.
[09:09] Hishinuma
    They really were warm and tasty looking.
[09:12] Shoko
    It's too bad they didn't have any
    freshly fried curry bread, though.
[09:17] Mina
    It's their most popular
    item, so it was sold out.
[09:20] Sato
    Well, there doesn't seem
    to be a microwave here.
[09:24] Sato
    It would be impossible to reheat bread.
[09:27] Sato
    Uryu-san, what did you buy?
[09:30] Shoko
    Right.
[09:32] Shoko
    I bought ice cream.
[09:33] Shoko
    They're from a shop that
    opened around here recently.
[09:37] Shoko
    Everyone said they loved them
    after I bought some once.
[09:40] Takagi
    But if you hid the ice
    cream in the freezer...
[09:45] Hishinuma
    Before we went shopping, we all checked
    to see if we were out of anything.
[09:50] Hishinuma
    There wasn't any ice cream then.
[09:52] Conan
    Our hint is the objects on the kitchen
    counter that caught Haneda Meijin's attention.
[09:58] Conan
    Two ice trays, a mixer, and a toaster.
[10:02] Conan
    One of the three suspects could've used
    one of those tools to fabricate an alibi.
[10:08] Akai
    Oh?
[10:09] Conan
    It's the mixer.
[10:11] Akai
    The mixer?
[10:13] Conan
    If you put room temperature water in
    a mixer and mix it for five minutes,
[10:18] Conan
    the kinetic energy from the friction
[10:20] Conan
    generated by the water molecules
    turns into thermal energy.
[10:24] Conan
    Its temperature rises three
    degrees to 42-3 degrees Celsius.
[10:27] Conan
    If you put instant coffee in the hot
    water, you can make lukewarm coffee.
[10:35] Conan
    In other words, the culprit
    pretended to go shopping
[10:39] Conan
    and then claimed to have forgotten
    something and returned to the room.
[10:43] Conan
    They put water in the mixer,
    and while it was mixing,
[10:46] Conan
    they strangled the victim Genda
    to death with an electrical cord.
[10:51] Conan
    They placed the shogi board missing two legs
    they'd hidden in the room next to the body,
[10:57] Conan
    indicating that Genda was the second
    victim of the serial murders.
[11:02] Conan
    They poured the lukewarm
    water heated using the mixer
[11:05] Conan
    into cups they previously purchased
    from the coffee shop and made coffee.
[11:09] Conan
    They placed the coffees inside a coffee shop
    bag and descended to the building entrance.
[11:16] Conan
    Then he pretended the victim wouldn't
    let him in after he went to buy coffee.
[11:21] Conan
    That's right.
[11:23] Conan
    Hishinuma Kosuke must be the culprit.
[11:31] Hishinuma
    3-3 G.
[11:34] Shukichi
    5-4 B drop.
[11:47] Conan
    While Genda's death by strangulation
    was being investigated,
[11:52] Conan
    Kishimoto's house caught fire.
[11:55] Conan
    A shogi board missing three legs
    was placed next to the body
[11:59] Conan
    to confuse the order in which
    the murders took place.
[12:03] Conan
    He killed Kishimoto before going
    to the second crime scene,
[12:06] Conan
    the Beika City apartment where
    the study sessions were held.
[12:11] Conan
    After killing him, he left the body in
    a room with the AC set to 37 degrees.
[12:17] Conan
    As long as he made sure
    the house would catch fire
[12:22] Conan
    automatically after Genda's
    murder was discovered,
[12:25] Conan
    a body with a relatively
    high rectal temperature
[12:28] Conan
    would be discovered in
    the wreckage of the fire.
[12:30] Conan
    Naturally, the body was burnt,
[12:33] Conan
    which broadens the estimated time of death,
[12:37] Conan
    but he could use the number
    of legs on the shogi board
[12:39] Conan
    to convince us that it happened
    after the second murder.
[12:43] Akai
    I see.
[12:45] Akai
    In other words, by leaving a shogi board
    missing one leg next to Nishikido,
[12:50] Akai
    his first victim,
[12:53] Akai
    he was laying the groundwork to make
    it seem like he killed Kishimoto,
[12:56] Akai
    his second victim, after
    Genda, his third victim.
[13:04] Conan
    Yeah.
[13:06] Conan
    I see it.
[13:07] Conan
    The GPS is pointing to that
    building directly ahead of us.
[13:11] Akai
    Yeah.
[13:15] Conan
    The question is which room
    is the Meijin being held in?
[13:21] Akai
    He's probably playing blind
    shogi in order to tell us that.
[13:31] Shukichi
    That's how my brother honks his horn.
[13:35] Shukichi
    He must've come for me.
[13:37] Hishinuma
    What's the matter, Meijin?
[13:39] Hishinuma
    Need some time to think?
[13:42] Shukichi
    8-3 B promote.
[13:45] Shukichi
    Oh, no! That was a bad move!
[13:49] Shukichi
    Now my jeweled general will be
    taken by your incense chariot!
[13:55] Conan
    An 8-3 B promote means an incense
    chariot will take his king?
[14:00] Conan
    8-3 B is the square eighth from
    the right and third from the top,
[14:07] Conan
    which would be the eighth room from the
    right on the third floor below the roof.
[14:12] Conan
    And if his piece was promoted,
    that means it was flipped.
[14:17] Conan
    In other words, Taiko Meijin
    is in the room in that location
[14:22] Conan
    when the building is viewed from behind.
[14:24] Conan
    Akai-san.
[14:26] Akai
    Impressive work, kid.
[14:31] Hishinuma
    I knew Haneda Meijin wouldn't
    make such a bad move.
[14:37] Hishinuma
    You tricked me so you could tell
    someone about this location.
[14:42] Hishinuma
    If the police found the written confession
[14:45] Hishinuma
    and you agreed not to tell anyone about me,
[14:48] Hishinuma
    I planned to release you
    and go into hiding, but...
[14:52] Hishinuma
    It looks like I'll have to kill you!
[14:58] Conan
    I knew it. He's being
    held in the living room.
[15:01] Conan
    In English, the incense chariot is
    called the lance, or L for short.
SIGN    Incense Chariot
SIGN    Living Room (L)
[15:04] Conan
    "Living room" starts with an L, too.
[15:07] Conan
    But how can we rescue him?
[15:11] Akai
    Kid.
[15:13] Akai
    You see that clothesline pipe
    on that apartment's balcony?
[15:24] Conan
    Yeah. What about it?
[15:27] Akai
    Could you use your ball to change its angle?
[15:32] Conan
    It wouldn't be impossible.
[15:34] Akai
    Then follow along with the
    plan I'm about to describe.
[15:43] Hishinuma
    Damn it. What are the police doing?
[15:46] Shukichi
    Perhaps it's none of my business,
[15:49] Shukichi
    but you should turn yourself in soon.
[15:51] Shukichi
    It's not too late.
[15:52] Hishinuma
    Shut up!
[16:02] Conan
    Akai-san, I set my voice
    changed to loudspeaker mode.
[16:07] Conan
    Give the signal in 30 seconds.
[16:11] Akai
    Roger that.
[16:13] Hishinuma
    Wh-What just happened?
[16:21] Hishinuma
    Where'd this ball come from?
[16:23] Man
    This is the MPD!
[16:26] Man
    We're the Special Assault Team!
[16:29] Man
    Hishinuma Kosuke, we're
    watching your every move!
[16:34] Man
    Discard your weapon and give yourself up!
[16:37] Hishinuma
    Shut up!
[16:38] Hishinuma
    Stay away from me!
[16:40] Hishinuma
    Or don't you care what happens to the Meijin?
[16:44] Akai
    I thought he might do that.
[16:46] Akai
    In that case...
[17:02] Man
    That was a warning shot!
[17:05] Man
    A detached force is on
    its way to your location.
[17:09] Man
    Stay there and wait quietly
    until they arrive.
[17:30] Conan
    I somehow made it in time to tranquilize him.
[17:34] Shukichi
    Thanks for saving me, Conan-kun.
[17:38] Conan
    It wasn't me. It was all Akai-san.
[17:42] Shukichi
    I suppose so.
[17:45] Conan
    Anyway...
[17:48] Conan
    Why did the culprit Hishinuma-san stay
    here instead of immediately running away?
[17:53] Shukichi
    He was waiting for the police
    to find the written confession.
[17:59] Conan
    Written confession?
[18:00] Shukichi
    Yeah, a letter confessing that those
    four shogi players were cheating.
[18:08] Conan
    Four shogi players?
[18:10] Shukichi
    Nishikido Kimiharu,
[18:13] Shukichi
    Genda Yasukiyo,
[18:14] Shukichi
    Kishimoto Yuhei,
[18:16] Shukichi
    and Uryu Kinji kept pens equipped with
    miniature cameras in their pockets.
[18:23] Shukichi
    They sent videos of their matches
    to their accomplices' phones,
[18:27] Shukichi
    who searched the web for expert moves.
[18:31] Shukichi
    They won a bunch of games by
    casually informing each other
[18:34] Shukichi
    about the moves when they passed each
    other in the bathroom or hallways.
[18:39] Shukichi
    Nishikido ranked up without getting caught,
[18:43] Shukichi
    but someone from the Shogi League warned Uryu
[18:47] Shukichi
    that he was going to the
    bathroom too many times.
[18:51] Shukichi
    When he asked the others what he should do,
[18:54] Shukichi
    they apparently responded coldly.
SIGN    Rule of Silence (kuchinashi no okite)
[18:57] Shukichi
    They told him to follow the
    rule of silence and die.
[19:02] Conan
    The rule of silence?
[19:04] Shukichi
    The legs of shogi boards are modeled
    after gardenia (kuchinashi) fruit.
[19:09] Shukichi
    It comes from the ban against speaking
    during someone else's match (kuchi wo dasu).
[19:13] Shukichi
    They made their own agreement
    modeled after the gardenia.
[19:19] Shukichi
    If any of them were in
    danger of being exposed,
[19:22] Shukichi
    he'd keep the group's secret and
    protect the others by killing himself.
[19:26] Shukichi
    Because of it, Uryu was
    forced to commit suicide.
[19:30] Shukichi
    He found his suicide suspicious,
[19:32] Shukichi
    so he tracked down their cheating,
[19:34] Shukichi
    and made his first victim Nishikido confess.
[19:38] Shukichi
    In order to avenge his friend
    Uryu, he killed the three of them
[19:43] Shukichi
    and left shogi boards missing their
    gardenias at the crime scenes.
[19:49] Shukichi
    Before we began our blind shogi game,
[19:52] Shukichi
    he actually told me to sit quietly and
    listen so he could tell me why he did it.
[19:59] Shukichi
    Nishikido in particular used
    their cheating to fix matches.
[20:04] Shukichi
    He called him a disgrace to shogi players.
[20:07] Shukichi
    Well, the confession was
    meant to frame Kishimoto,
[20:11] Shukichi
    who was found dead in the burnt wreckage.
[20:15] Shukichi
    It apparently said he killed the other two
[20:19] Shukichi
    and himself in order to
    atone for their cheating.
[20:25] Conan
    But why haven't the police
    found the confession?
[20:31] Shukichi
    Because I got to it before them and took it.
[20:34] Conan
    What?
[20:36] Shukichi
    At the time, I knew Hishinuma was
    responsible for the serial murders.
[20:41] Shukichi
    Hishinuma might've burnt
    down Kishimoto's house, too.
[20:46] Shukichi
    If that were the case,
[20:47] Shukichi
    I thought he might put a confession
    in the apartment's mailbox
[20:52] Shukichi
    so it would seem like Kishimoto
    came to the apartment to kill Genda
[20:57] Shukichi
    before setting fire to his
    own home and killing himself.
SIGN    Confession
[21:02] Conan
    Come to think of it, Yumi-san said the Meijin
[21:06] Conan
    went back inside while they
    were leaving the building.
[21:11] Conan
    That must be when he took the confession.
[21:15] Conan
    In any case, I'd expect no less
    from the great Taiko Meijin.
[22:45] Akai
    Ah, Camel?
[22:47] Akai
    There's something I'd
    like you to take care of
[22:51] Akai

[22:55] Akai
    Yeah.

[23:08] Shukichi
    Nii-san, I've got a question about Mom.
[23:12] Shukichi
    What about Mom?
[23:14] Shukichi
    She's refusing to meet my girlfriend.
[23:18] Shukichi
    She won't even answer her phone.
[23:21] Akai
    You haven't told her I'm alive, have you?
[23:25] Shukichi
    No.
[23:27] Akai
    Don't worry.
[23:29] Akai
    You'll get to see Mom eventually.
[23:35] Akai
    Once their mist concealing the truth clears.
