[00:02] Conan
    Hey, Mister.
[00:04] Conan
    Inspector Megure always says some
    kind of incident often happens
[00:07] Conan
    when we're hanging out together, right?
[00:09] Kogoro
    Well, yeah.
[00:11] Kogoro
    It's what you call a coincidence.
[00:13] Conan
    Huh.
[00:15] Conan
    So, is that a coincidence, too?
[00:21] Kogoro
    Yup, what a coincidence!
[00:26] Conan
    It comes to visit after falling asleep!
[00:28] Conan
    Fall in love with logical deduction
    and the pleasure of solving mysteries!
[00:30] Conan
    Put your life on the line as
    you put the pot over the fire!
[00:32] Conan
    There's a message hidden in the vegetables!
[00:33] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[00:35] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[00:36] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    The Deadly Pork Soup Signal
[02:22] Conan
    "The Deadly Pork Soup Signal!"
[02:34] Takagi
    The victim is Lisa
    Hewitson-san, 25 years old.
[02:38] Takagi
    The cause of death is
    shock due to blood loss.
SIGN    Lisa Hewitson (25)
    Floor Staff
[02:41] Takagi
    The estimated time of death
    is between 1:00AM and 1:30AM.
[02:45] Chiba
    Judging by how much blood she lost, the
    culprit probably got her blood on themselves.
[02:52] Takagi
    Yeah.
[02:53] Kogoro
    So, what's the weapon?
[02:55] Takagi
    M-Mori-san? What are you doing here?
[02:57] Chiba
    C-Conan-kun, too?
[03:00] Takagi
    We haven't found a weapon yet.
[03:03] Kogoro
    What about fingerprints?
[03:05] Chiba
    We found three sets of fingerprints
    other than the victim's.
[03:09] Kogoro
    I see.
[03:11] Conan
    Hey.
[03:13] Conan
    What was inside that pouch?
[03:16] Chiba
    They're on that table over there.
[03:19] Chiba
    Her ID, wallet, and various cosmetics.
[03:22] Chiba
    There was a ball-point pen and notepad, too.
[03:25] Chiba
    There were no signs the front door
    or windows were forced open, so...
[03:29] Takagi
    This may have been the
    work of an acquaintance.
[03:32] Kogoro
    Then we should talk to the boyfriend first.
[03:41] Chiba
    Hara Takashi-san, 23 years old.
[03:44] Chiba
    We were able to confirm with their
    acquaintances that he was dating the victim.
[03:49] Chiba
    Additionally, the fingerprints collected
    when he committed a traffic violation
[03:52] Chiba
    matched the fingerprints
    found at the crime scene.
[03:56] Hara
    Wh-What?! I can't believe Lisa was murdered.
SIGN    Hara Takashi (23)
    Office Worker
[04:00] Hara
    But she was so full of life yesterday.
[04:04] Hara
    Does that mean you met
    with Lisa-san yesterday?
SIGN    Hara
[04:08] Hara
    I saw her three days ago.
[04:10] Hara
    Yesterday evening we spoke on the phone.
[04:13] Chiba
    Where were you last night
    between 1:00AM and 1:30AM?
[04:19] Hara
    Last night I was drinking
    with my coworkers until 3AM.
[04:25] Kogoro
    By the way, did you notice anything
    unusual about her recently?
[04:30] Hara
    Anything unusual?
[04:31] Chiba
    Like suspicious persons hanging around her.
[04:34] Hara
    It was him!
[04:35] Hara
    Komaki, the owner of the
    store Lisa worked at.
[04:38] Hara
    She always complained
    about him hitting on her.
[04:41] Hara
    He must've done it. You have to arrest him!
[04:45] Chiba
    Komaki Satoshi-san, 47 years old.
[04:48] Chiba
    Previous offenses include tax
    evasion and attempted extortion.
[04:51] Chiba
    According to rumors, he has connections
    to some rather rough individuals.
[04:55] Chiba
    Furthermore, his fingerprints were
    also found at the crime scene.
[04:59] Komaki
    What?
SIGN    Komaki Satoshi (47)
    Bar Manager
[05:02] Komaki
    Officer, you don't think I did it, do you?
[05:06] Chiba
    I didn't say that.
[05:08] Chiba
    It's just that one of your employees is dead.
[05:12] Chiba
    We need to speak with you.
[05:15] Komaki
    I see.
[05:16] Komaki
    In that case, I promise
    my complete cooperation.
[05:22] Takashi
    Could you tell us about your
    relationship with Hewitson-san?
[05:27] Komaki
    Officially, we had an
    employment relationship.
[05:31] Komaki
    In other words, we were an
    employer and his employee.
[05:35] Takashi
    And privately?
[05:38] Komaki
    In exchange for a little pocket money,
    we played Old Maid together late at night.
[05:44] Chiba
    What?
[05:45] Kogoro
    In other words, you've been
    inside Hewitson-san's home.
[05:50] Komaki
    Well, yeah.
[05:52] Komaki
    Old Maid is a game you play at home.
[05:57] Chiba
    Could you tell us your alibi
    for between 1:00AM and 1:30AM?
[06:02] Komaki
    Come on, now. Aren't there more important
    things you should be investigating?
[06:09] Komaki
    I'm talking about the conclusive
    evidence left inside her home.
[06:12] Komaki
    I'm sure you found something, right?
[06:14] Komaki
    Like a bloody weapon, for example.
[06:17] Komaki
    Or a wine bottle with fingerprints on it.
[06:20] Komaki
    Or the jacket the culprit was wearing.
[06:25] Takagi
    What are you talking about?
[06:27] Komaki
    Huh?
[06:29] Takagi
    Do you know something about the case?
[06:33] Komaki
    Oh, no. I was just, uh...
[06:36] Komaki
    I know. It's because he did it.
[06:39] Kogoro
    He who?
[06:41] Komaki
    I'm talking about that brat Hara.
[06:44] Komaki
    He was always making eyes at my employees.
[06:48] Komaki
    So he must've done it.
[06:51] Chiba
    Don't you think that's too
    much of a logical leap?
[06:54] Komaki
    Hardly.
[06:56] Komaki
    He's definitely the culprit.
[06:58] Kogoro
    Are you sure you're not the culprit?
[07:01] Komaki
    What was that?
[07:03] Chiba
    You still haven't told us your alibi
    for between 1:00AM and 1:30AM.
[07:09] Komaki
    My alibi?
[07:11] Komaki
    My alibi, huh? I've got that covered.
[07:15] Komaki
    I've got an ironclad alibi.
[07:18] Komaki
    I was at home during that time.
[07:21] Komaki
    If you think I'm lying, ask my wife Mihoko.
[07:27] Chiba
    Komaki Mihoko-san, 28 years old.
[07:30] Chiba
    No previous offenses.
[07:32] Chiba
    Since they married two years
    ago, she's been his housewife.
[07:36] Conan
    But can we really trust that
    man's wife's testimony?
[07:43] Takagi
    The credibility of her testimony
    probably comes with a question mark.
[07:48] Chiba
    Before they married, when she worked
    Komaki's bar like the victim,
[07:52] Chiba
    he pressured her into marrying him.
[07:55] Kogoro
    If he's having his wife provide
    false testimony, that works for us.
[08:02] Kogoro
    I, the great detective Mori Kogoro,
[08:04] Kogoro
    will identify any contradictions in
    her testimony and solve the case.
[08:16] Mihoko
    Have a seat, please.
[08:18] All
    Excuse us.
[08:22] Takagi
    You're definitely Komaki Mihoko-san, correct?
SIGN    Komaki Mihoko (28)
    Komaki Satoshi's Wife
[08:26] Mihoko
    Yes. Ask me anything.
[08:30] Mihoko
    My husband insisted I answer
    all your questions truthfully.
[08:35] Takagi
    Then what time did Komaki-san
    come home last night?
[08:42] Mihoko
    My husband usually returns between
    2AM and 3AM after his bar closes.
[08:48] Mihoko
    Last night he said there was something
    on TV he wanted to watch
[08:50] Mihoko
    and returned at 11PM.
[08:54] Takagi
    What exactly did he want to watch?
[08:57] Mihoko
    The news. An accountant
    he knows was arrested.
[09:03] Mihoko
    He said he had to watch it.
[09:06] Kogoro
    In this day and age, you
    can watch TV from anywhere.
[09:11] Kogoro
    Just knowing what happened on
    a TV program isn't evidence.
[09:16] Mihoko
    You think my husband did it?
[09:20] Mihoko
    Despite how he seems, he despises lies.
[09:28] Conan
    What's going on?
[09:29] Conan
    Is there something special
    about that figurine?
[09:35] Conan
    What's that?
[09:36] Conan
    That's a mic.
[09:38] Conan
    Then someone's listening
    in on this conversation.
[09:41] Kogoro
    Ma'am, how did a young and
    beautiful woman like yourself
[09:46] Kogoro
    end up married to that man?
[09:49] Kogoro
    I'm sure you had plenty of better options.
[09:58] Mihoko
    I married him two years ago.
[10:02] Mihoko
    At the time, I was engaged to another man.
[10:06] Mihoko
    Back then, I believed I
    would marry my fiancé,
[10:12] Mihoko
    but just before the wedding,
[10:15] Mihoko
    he was stabbed by an unknown assailant.
[10:27] Kogoro
    Did you lose your fiancé in the incident?
[10:31] Mihoko
    He died.
[10:35] Mihoko
    The culprit was arrested soon afterwards,
[10:38] Mihoko
    but they apparently died in prison.
[10:58] Mihoko
    After that, a series of unfortunate
    events occurred around me.
[11:04] Takashi
    Specifically, what happened?
[11:06] Mihoko
    The company I worked at
    suddenly went bankrupt,
[11:10] Mihoko
    and my sister was being stalked.
[11:13] Mihoko
    My father's factory caught fire.
[11:15] Mihoko
    My mother fell off a train platform.
[11:19] Chiba
    I-Is that true?
[11:22] Mihoko
    Who would joke about this?
[11:24] Kogoro
    What a series of unfortunate events.
[11:28] Mihoko
    The silver lining was that none
    of my family members died.
[11:34] Mihoko
    When I was at my lowest point,
[11:36] Mihoko
    it was Komaki who reached out to me.
[11:45] Conan
    Something's not right.
[11:47] Conan
    The hidden mic and her pleading glances.
[11:50] Conan
    Then there's her life story and
    her marriage to her husband.
[11:54] Conan
    And more than anything, her expression.
[11:57] Conan
    Hey, do you love your husband?
[12:00] Mihoko
    Huh?
[12:01] Kogoro
    What?
[12:04] Mihoko
    O-Of course I do.
[12:06] Mihoko
    Why would you ask that?
[12:08] Conan
    Huh, I see.
[12:11] Kogoro
    Don't ask weird questions.
[12:16] Conan
    I'm sure of it.
[12:19] Conan
    She's lying.
[12:27] Conan
    In that case...
SIGN    December 7th
SIGN    December 7th – Events Read details of what occurred on December 7th Incidents occurring on December 7th What happened on December 7th
[12:35] Conan
    This must be it.
SIGN    From: Conan-kun Subject: No subject Kogoro-no-ojisan says this room is bugged.
[12:45] Conan
    Kogoro-no-ojisan says this room is bugged.
[12:49] Chiba
    What? Bugged?
[12:51] Takashi
    It must be her husband
    Komaki who's listening.
[12:54] Takashi
    By why would he bug the room?
[12:57] Conan
    The wife wants to tell us the truth, but
    she can't because the room is bugged.
[13:02] Conan
    Kogoro-no-ojisan says we need to communicate
    using something other than words.
[13:08] Chiba
    Other than words?
[13:10] Takagi
    But how?
[13:12] Conan
    By the way, he says he'll continue
    pretending he hasn't noticed.
[13:16] Kogoro
    You're free to say you love your husband.
[13:21] Takagi
    Could I interrupt for a moment?
[13:25] Takagi
    Mihoko-san, could you answer the questions
    I'm about to ask you with either yes or no?
[13:34] Mihoko
    What?
[13:36] Takagi
    Yes or no.
[13:41] Mihiko
    Yes, I understand.
[13:44] Kogoro
    Huh?
[13:46] Takagi
    You're Komaki Mihoko-san, correct?
[13:49] Mihoko
    Yes.
[13:50] Takagi
    Did you lie about any of your testimony
    concerning your husband's alibi?
[13:56] Mihoko
    Of course not.
[13:58] Mihoko
    By 11PM, he had returned home.
[14:02] Mihoko
    I can vouch for that.
[14:07] Kogoro
    We already—
[14:08] Chiba
    Do you believe your husband
    is involved in this case?
[14:12] Mihoko
    No, I'm sure the culprit is someone else.
[14:16] Kogoro
    Then the culprit must be—
[14:18] Conan
    Why are you here?
[14:21] Mihoko
    What?
[14:22] Conan
    Is there something preventing
    you from going somewhere else?
[14:25] Mihoko
    I'm here of my own free will.
[14:31] Takagi
    Excuse me, ma'am.
[14:35] Takagi
    The police will guarantee your safety.
[14:38] Takagi
    Would you be willing to help us?
[14:52] Mihoko
    I know.
[14:54] Mihoko
    My husband will be returning soon.
[14:57] Mihoko
    I should cook.
[15:03] Takagi
    Ma'am?
[15:07] Mihoko
    First I'll chop the vegetables.
[15:13] Chiba
    What's going on here?
[15:16] Kogoro
    Green onions, burdock, and daikon radishes.
[15:19] Kogoro
    I know.
[15:21] Kogoro
    She's cooking pork soup.
[15:24] Conan
    Is that important?
[15:28] Kogoro
    If not that, then this is Morse code.
[15:31] Kogoro
    She's pretending to chop vegetables
    so she can tell us something.
[15:48] Conan
    What's this?
[15:50] Takagi
    Excuse me, ma'am.
[15:51] Komaki
    That's enough.
[15:54] Komaki
    Stay away from my wife.
[15:58] Takagi
    Komaki.
[15:59] Komaki
    You've heard enough.
[16:02] Komaki
    If you're not going to arrest
    me, then get out of here.
[16:08] Conan
    Hey, ma'am.
[16:10] Conan
    Here.
[16:11] Conan
    It's a good luck charm. Well, bye.
[16:16] Takagi
    The culprit is almost certainly
    Komaki, but we don't have evidence.
[16:20] Takagi
    If only we had concrete evidence.
[16:23] Kogoro
    Don't worry about that.
[16:25] Both
    What?
[16:25] Takagi
    Mori-san, did you figure something out?
[16:28] Kogoro
    She was cooking pork soup.
[16:30] Kogoro
    After that, she'll cook
    the rice and a main dish.
[16:34] Kogoro
    In other words, a pork soup
    made with pork belly—
[16:40] Chiba
    Mori-san?
[16:41] Kogoro
    Detective Takagi, take us
    to the victim's apartment.
[16:45] Takagi
    Roger that!
[16:50] Chiba
    But why are we going to
    the victim's apartment?
[16:53] Kogoro
    The first thing she was trying to tell us was
    about the mic hidden on the horse figurine.
[17:00] Kogoro
    She couldn't speak freely because of it.
[17:04] Kogoro
    The second thing was the art on the wall.
[17:08] Kogoro
    There was a date on the work.
[17:11] Kogoro
    Detective Chiba, try searching for
    incidents that occurred on December 7th.
[17:17] Chiba
    Sure. Let's see...
[17:19] Chiba
    What's this?
[17:21] Kogoro
    A slasher murder.
[17:23] Kogoro
    The victim was probably Mihoko-san's fiancé.
[17:26] Kogoro
    It's likely the person they
    arrested was falsely charged.
[17:31] Takagi
    How do you know that?
[17:33] Chiba
    It's the evidence.
[17:36] Komaki
    Like a bloody weapon, for example.
[17:39] Komaki
    Or a wine bottle with fingerprints on it.
[17:42] Komaki
    Or the jacket the culprit was wearing.
[17:46] Chiba
    The evidence collected from
    the slasher murder case
[17:48] Chiba
    was exactly the same as the
    items Komaki mentioned earlier.
[17:53] Komaki
    This must be what they mean when
    say "bite the hand that feeds."
[17:59] Mihoko
    What are you talking about?
[18:00] Komaki
    I'm disappointed. And here I
    thought I'd taught you well.
[18:08] Kogoro
    He probably left the same evidence at the
    crime scene in order to frame Hara-san.
[18:14] Kogoro
    But for some reason, the evidence was missing.
[18:18] Komaki
    In other words, this is what happened.
[18:20] Komaki
    After I left Lisa's home, you snuck back
    inside and took the evidence with you.
[18:27] Komaki
    Am I wrong?
[18:28] Mihoko
    It wasn't me.
[18:30] Komaki
    Don't lie to me.
[18:32] Komaki
    You desperately tried to tip off the police.
[18:35] Mihoko
    I never did that.
[18:37] Komaki
    I installed a camera in the
    stuffed bear on the sofa.
[18:45] Takagi
    In other words, the third set of fingerprints
    found at the crime scene were hers.
[18:51] Kogoro
    Yeah. Then there's the
    life story she told us.
[18:55] Kogoro
    That must've been true.
[18:58] Kogoro
    She's stuck because of it.
[19:01] Kogoro
    Even if Komaki were arrested,
[19:04] Kogoro
    she was probably told her family would
    be harmed if he learned of her betrayal.
[19:10] Takagi
    What a awful man.
[19:11] Mihoko
    What are you going to do to me?
[19:14] Komaki
    Nothing. You're my precious wife.
[19:18] Komaki
    But unfortunately, my precious
    wife has gone missing.
[19:24] Komaki
    There's no point in leaving the cops a body to
    find when they've already got their eyes on me.
[19:31] Chiba
    By the way, why did she
    start chopping vegetables?
[19:35] Kogoro
    That was a hint from her as well.
[19:39] Takagi
    A hint?
[19:40] Conan
    What do green onions, burdock, and
    daikon radishes have in common?
[19:44] Chiba
    They're used to make pork soup?
[19:45] Kogoro
    No.
[19:47] Takagi
    They're long and thin.
[19:49] Kogoro
    That's right.
[19:50] Kogoro
    But not believing that would be enough,
    she began doing something else.
[19:54] Kogoro
    When Komaki showed up, the
    rest of us weren't looking,
[19:57] Kogoro
    but Conan confirmed it.
[20:00] Kogoro
    She chopped the vegetables and created...
[20:05] Chiba
    It looks like an ordinary ball-point pen.
[20:08] Conan
    Why don't we try disassembling it?
[20:10] Takagi
    Sure.
[20:15] Takagi
    What's this?
[20:16] Chiba
    It's a cleaning receipt.
SIGN    Cleaning Receipt
[20:19] Takagi
    We finally acquired some concrete evidence.
[20:22] Chiba
    If we examine the DNA of
    the blood on the shirt...
[20:26] Conan
    The case is as good as solved.
[20:29] Chiba
    Hello, this is Chiba.
[20:32] Chiba
    What?!
[20:34] Chiba
    Komaki has gone missing!
[20:36] Takagi
    What?!
[20:38] Komaki
    Any last words?
[20:41] Mihoko
    Why did you kill her?
[20:43] Komaki
    She rejected my advances despite
    the good offer I made her.
[20:48] Komaki
    How dare she be faithful to that man?
[20:52] Mihoko
    You're the worst.
[20:53] Komaki
    You're one to talk, traitor!
[20:57] Mihoko
    The police will arrest you.
[20:59] Mihoko
    Do you really think the only thing
    I did was get rid of the evidence?
[21:03] Komaki
    You're bluffing.
[21:05] Mihoko
    I told them everything, including
    about your past evils.
[21:10] Komaki
    Is that all you have to say?
[21:16] Komaki
    It's the cops!

    Because my good luck charm worked.
[21:27] Takagi
    Police! Nobody move!
[21:32] Komaki

[23:33] Kogoro
    Who cares about that? I want pork soup.
