**[00:01] ---**
Encounters are mysterious!
But cases are even more so!
**[00:04] ---**
I'm so glad I'm with you!
**[00:06] ---**
Today's title is a bit unusual!
Can you solve the mystery in Part 1?!
**[00:10] ---**
He sees the
single truth for what it is,
**[00:11] ---**
and looks like a kid but
has the mind of an adult!
**[00:13] ---**
His name? Detective Conan!
**[01:51] ---**
"The Mystery of the Mole Alien (Part 1)."
**[02:00] ---**
Hey, Mitsuhiko.
**[02:02] ---**
Is there really
an empty lot nearby
**[02:04] ---**
where we can play baseball?
**[02:06] ---**
There is!
**[02:08] ---**
C'mon, you guys. Play soccer
once in a while, will ya?
**[02:15] ---**
We're here!
**[02:17] ---**
Huh?
**[02:18] ---**
What do you mean?
**[02:20] ---**
Right here!
**[02:31] ---**
This is a construction site
for an apartment building!
**[02:34] ---**
That's right! Except they stopped
construction half a month ago!
**[02:39] ---**
Then we can
play baseball in here?!
**[02:42] ---**
Yes!
**[02:43] ---**
We can't get in
here because it's locked,
**[02:46] ---**
but I found another
way in yesterday!
**[02:49] ---**
This way!
**[02:54] ---**
Geez...
**[03:02] ---**
Here it is!
**[03:04] ---**
There's a hole!
**[03:06] ---**
Whoa! You broke it, Mitsuhiko-*kun*?!
**[03:08] ---**
N-No!
**[03:10] ---**
A car hit it.
**[03:12] ---**
See? There's paint
from a car on the fence.
**[03:16] ---**
A car must've hit
it and made this hole.
**[03:20] ---**
Alright! Let's check out the inside!
**[03:22] ---**
I'm going in first!
**[03:28] ---**
There's so much space!
**[03:31] ---**
C'mon! Pull like you mean it!
**[03:34] ---**
Go on a diet, geez!
**[03:39] ---**
Alright! This manhole
will be the home plate!
**[03:43] ---**
I'm batter!
**[03:44] ---**
I'm pitcher!
**[03:45] ---**
I'm infielder!
**[03:50] ---**
Fine. I'll be outfielder.
**[03:54] ---**
Alright! Let's get started!
**[03:56] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:58] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:59] ---**
Conan-*kun*! I can't hear you!
**[04:02] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:04] ---**
All right!
**[04:05] ---**
Here it comes, Genta-*kun*!
**[04:07] ---**
Bring it on!
**[04:15] ---**
Conan-*kun*! It's headed your way!
**[04:18] ---**
I'm just a ball-fetcher here...
**[04:26] ---**
Still, this is clearly
breaking and entering...
**[04:31] ---**
If anyone sees us...
**[04:36] ---**
What's that?
**[04:42] ---**
Oh, crap! He's watching
with binoculars!
**[04:48] ---**
Whoops!
**[04:50] ---**
It went over the fence...
**[04:56] ---**
I don't see the ball anywhere.
**[04:58] ---**
Hey, could it have
gone over that fence, too?
**[05:02] ---**
That is quite possible.
**[05:05] ---**
Then let's ask the person
who lives there to let us get it.
**[05:08] ---**
Good idea. Let's see...
**[05:12] ---**
That seems to be
a back entrance, so...
**[05:14] ---**
I think the front door
was facing the main street.
**[05:17] ---**
But what if a really
stubborn man lives here?
**[05:21] ---**
I don't know if he's stubborn or not,
**[05:23] ---**
but someone was watching from
the upstairs window with binoculars.
**[05:26] ---**
Binoculars?
**[05:27] ---**
Meaning someone is home, right?!
Let's give it a shot!
**[05:31] ---**
Alright!
**[05:40] ---**
It probably flew into this yard.
**[05:42] ---**
It looks like a haunted house.
**[05:44] ---**
Why would a haunted house
be right on a main street?
**[05:53] ---**
Hey, Conan-*kun*.
**[05:55] ---**
How do you read that?
**[05:58] ---**
Watanuki Yoshikazu
**[05:58] ---**
Oh. Watanuki. Watanuki Yoshikazu.
**[06:02] ---**
Oh?
**[06:04] ---**
I think he's coming out!
**[06:09] ---**
Whoa! He's scary!
**[06:12] ---**
H-He's all yours, Conan!
**[06:14] ---**
Geez. You got a big body,
but no guts at all.
**[06:19] ---**
Excuse me! Our ball landed
in your yard! Could we get it?
**[06:25] ---**
Watanuki Yoshikazu (63)
**[06:25] ---**
Are you students at Teitan Elementary?
**[06:28] ---**
Yes!
**[06:30] ---**
You're not allowed in my yard!
**[06:33] ---**
That means leave!
**[06:35] ---**
W-Wait, hold on!
Without that ball, we can't--
**[06:39] ---**
That's what you get
for playing baseball there!
**[06:42] ---**
If I catch you in there again,
I'm contacting your school!
**[06:47] ---**
You can't be serious...
**[06:54] ---**
He wasn't a stubborn man.
He was a stubborn old man.
**[06:57] ---**
He could at least let
us look around the yard!
**[07:00] ---**
Darn it! Give my ball back!
**[07:03] ---**
There's nothing we can do.
**[07:05] ---**
Like he said, we're the ones at
fault for going where we shouldn't.
**[07:11] ---**
Then it's Mitsuhiko's fault!
**[07:13] ---**
You better pay for that ball!
**[07:15] ---**
Hey! Let's forget about baseball
and play video games at Conan's place!
**[07:19] ---**
Y-Yes, good idea! We can
have some snacks there, too!
**[07:24] ---**
Boxed eel lunches?
**[07:25] ---**
Yes!
**[07:25] ---**
Hey! Don't decide things on your own!
**[07:28] ---**
Alright! Let's go to Conan's place!
**[07:30] ---**
Yes! Let's!
**[07:40] ---**
Huh? There's someone there...
**[07:44] ---**
So, there is. Is he a client?
**[07:47] ---**
Hey, Mister.
**[07:50] ---**
He looks mean...
**[07:52] ---**
Did you come to the
Mori Detective Agency?
**[07:56] ---**
Who're you?
**[07:57] ---**
I live here! I'll show you the way!
**[08:08] ---**
I'm home!
**[08:10] ---**
Welcome back!
**[08:11] ---**
Oh, hello!
**[08:12] ---**
Hello!
**[08:14] ---**
Not those pests again.
**[08:17] ---**
Mister! You have a visitor!
**[08:20] ---**
Visitor?
**[08:22] ---**
My name is Koda. My younger
sister went missing a month ago.
**[08:28] ---**
Now, now! Please have a seat first!
**[08:31] ---**
Ran! Make some tea!
**[08:33] ---**
Right!
**[08:37] ---**
I'm sorry, but could you guys
play outside a little while longer?
**[08:41] ---**
Bah. We have no luck.
**[08:43] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[08:44] ---**
So, you want me
to find a missing person?
**[08:47] ---**
No. My sister was murdered!
By a man named Watanuki Yoshikazu!
**[08:53] ---**
Watanuki?!
**[08:55] ---**
The Watanuki-*san* who lives
next to the construction site?
**[08:58] ---**
You know him?
**[08:59] ---**
Are you kidding? We met him just now!
**[09:02] ---**
He wouldn't let us get the
ball Genta-*kun* hit into his yard!
**[09:06] ---**
He said, "You're not allowed in my yard!"
**[09:10] ---**
Just as I thought!
**[09:11] ---**
He didn't let you in the yard because
my sister's body is buried there!
**[09:16] ---**
H-Hold on! Please explain
everything from the start.
**[09:20] ---**
Here you are!
**[09:24] ---**
I've seen him somewhere before!
**[09:28] ---**
But I can't
remember where from...
**[09:31] ---**
My name is Koda Masao.
**[09:33] ---**
My name is Koda Masao.
**[09:33] ---**
Koda Masao (29)
**[09:35] ---**
I have just the one sister,
**[09:37] ---**
and I was born in Saku, Nagano Prefecture.
**[09:39] ---**
Oh, I know Saku! It
has the Cosmos Road, right?
**[09:44] ---**
Yes. My sister loved
cosmos flowers, too.
**[09:48] ---**
This is my sister, Sanae.
**[09:51] ---**
Oh! She's very pretty!
**[09:54] ---**
She really is! She looks nothing like her brother!
**[09:55] ---**
Koda Sanae (26)
**[09:58] ---**
She has white skin, too!
**[10:00] ---**
You kids!
**[10:02] ---**
My sister moved here six years
ago to work for Toto Securities.
**[10:08] ---**
Two years ago, she became
head of the Beika branch office.
**[10:13] ---**
But on the night of the 8th of
last month, she left to go see a client
**[10:19] ---**
and has been missing ever since.
**[10:21] ---**
And this client was
Watanuki Yoshikazu-*san*?
**[10:26] ---**
Yes.
**[10:27] ---**
I came to town two
nights after, on a Sunday,
**[10:31] ---**
and learned about this
at her office the following day.
**[10:35] ---**
Around what time
did she leave the office?
**[10:38] ---**
Around 8:00 pm.
**[10:40] ---**
She supposedly said she was
going to stop by Watanuki's house
**[10:44] ---**
and then return home.
**[10:45] ---**
Why would she visit
a client at such an hour?
**[10:48] ---**
According to the branch manager,
**[10:51] ---**
the stock Watanuki had
bought had plummeted in value,
**[10:54] ---**
and he was pressuring her into
compensating him for his losses.
**[10:58] ---**
One of those so-called
"compensation payments," huh?
**[11:02] ---**
Did you go to see Watanuki-*san*, then?
**[11:06] ---**
Yes. The branch manager and
I went on the afternoon of the 11th.
**[11:10] ---**
He says my sister never
showed up the night of the 8th!
**[11:15] ---**
But that's a lie! She went to his
house that night, but refused to pay!
**[11:21] ---**
Watanuki snapped, killed her,
and buried her in his yard!
**[11:27] ---**
Say, why do you think
she was buried in the yard?
**[11:32] ---**
For two reasons.
**[11:34] ---**
First, Watanuki doesn't
have a driver's license.
**[11:38] ---**
He couldn't take the
body far away without a car.
**[11:42] ---**
Second, late that night,
at about 2:00 am,
**[11:45] ---**
a businessman in the next
house overheard a shovel digging.
**[11:52] ---**
Digging?
**[11:53] ---**
A man named Mochida-*san
*who lives nearby.
**[11:56] ---**
He says that construction
was being done on the main street
**[12:00] ---**
that night between
midnight and 3:00 am.
**[12:03] ---**
Watanuki unquestionably used that
sound to dig his hole unnoticed!
**[12:08] ---**
I see. So, did you
tell the police about this?
**[12:12] ---**
Of course I did!
**[12:14] ---**
But Mochida-*san* had
been very drunk that night,
**[12:18] ---**
so the police said his
testimony wasn't credible.
**[12:22] ---**
In the end, they only
questioned Watanuki on ceremony.
**[12:28] ---**
He lives alone, and he's almost
never left his house since that night.
**[12:35] ---**
But every Saturday
morning at around 10:00,
**[12:39] ---**
he leaves for Beika Central Hospital
and is gone for two hours.
**[12:44] ---**
So, Mori-*san*...
**[12:46] ---**
Tomorrow is Saturday, so I'd like
you to come with me to his house
**[12:50] ---**
and deduce where
he buried my sister's body!
**[12:53] ---**
I'll dig her up myself, of course!
**[12:57] ---**
In other words, you want me
to sneak into his yard with you?
**[13:02] ---**
Yes.
**[13:03] ---**
I'm afraid I can't.
**[13:06] ---**
It's illegal to enter others'
yards without permission.
**[13:10] ---**
Besides, skilled as I am, it'd be
impossible to tell, in such a short time,
**[13:15] ---**
where a body was
buried over a month ago.
**[13:22] ---**
Koda-*san*...
**[13:23] ---**
Very well.
**[13:25] ---**
Just forget it!
**[13:27] ---**
Koda-*san*...
**[13:30] ---**
I'm sorry for bothering you.
**[13:35] ---**
Umm...
**[13:41] ---**
Now I remember!
**[13:42] ---**
That person looks
just like a Mole Alien!
**[13:46] ---**
Mole?
**[13:47] ---**
Alien?
**[13:48] ---**
Oh!
**[13:49] ---**
He does, come to think of it!
**[13:51] ---**
Right?! Mole Aliens take on
friends' forms to trick Masked Yaiba!
**[13:56] ---**
They suddenly come out
of the ground, just like moles!
**[14:00] ---**
Oh! So that's why he
wanted to dig up the yard!
**[14:04] ---**
Hey, now. That's not why at all.
**[14:07] ---**
Are you just going to let him go, Dad?
**[14:10] ---**
What am I supposed to do?
He told me to forget about it.
**[14:14] ---**
Besides, he's certain this Watanuki
killed his sister and buried her,
**[14:21] ---**
but there's no proof at all.
**[14:24] ---**
Even the shovel sound could've
come from the street construction.
**[14:29] ---**
That's true, but...
**[14:31] ---**
Well, I guess
I can give it a quick check.
**[14:34] ---**
Yeah, there is some
truth to what the old guy says.
**[14:38] ---**
We can't say anything for
sure, at this stage--
**[14:41] ---**
Alright! It's decided!
**[14:43] ---**
Let's do it!
**[14:46] ---**
I got a bad feeling about this...
**[14:56] ---**
How did I know we'd be back here?
**[14:59] ---**
First, we need to think of
a way to get inside somehow.
**[15:03] ---**
We can assume the gate is locked, so...
**[15:06] ---**
Huh?
**[15:09] ---**
It's unlocked.
**[15:10] ---**
Lucky! He must've gone somewhere!
**[15:13] ---**
Alright! Now's our chance!
**[15:15] ---**
W-Wait, you guys!
**[15:21] ---**
Yes, there's no way to tell
where she's buried just by looking.
**[15:25] ---**
Of course not! We don't even
know if she really is buried here!
**[15:30] ---**
Then let's start digging up
the place! I'll go find a shovel!
**[15:34] ---**
Wait! Genta!
**[15:35] ---**
Hey, you!
**[15:44] ---**
Beika Police Department
**[15:46] ---**
Yes, that Koda fellow
gave us a bit of trouble, too.
**[15:51] ---**
How so?
**[15:53] ---**
Watanuki-*san* lost about 1.5
million yen in the stock market.
**[15:57] ---**
That's a lot of money, but certainly
not enough to kill someone over.
**[16:02] ---**
That's true...
**[16:03] ---**
On top of that, he's certain
Watanuki-*san* is responsible
**[16:07] ---**
and has been following
him around for a month now.
**[16:11] ---**
The way we see it, Watanuki-*san
*seems more like the victim here.
**[16:22] ---**
We're sorry! We just really
wanted our ball, so we snuck in...
**[16:27] ---**
We're really sorry!
**[16:28] ---**
We're sorry!
**[16:31] ---**
It's all right. I was a bit on edge before.
I'm sorry I shouted at you.
**[16:38] ---**
I found your ball earlier.
**[16:41] ---**
I'll give it back,
**[16:42] ---**
if you promise never to go to
those apartments to play again.
**[16:46] ---**
Yes! We promise!
**[16:48] ---**
Just a minute.
**[16:50] ---**
This is great!
**[16:51] ---**
Yes!
**[16:55] ---**
One message.
**[16:59] ---**
This is Beika Central Hospital.
**[17:02] ---**
You have a checkup scheduled
for tomorrow, so be sure to come.
**[17:07] ---**
Hey, that sounded like--!
**[17:10] ---**
What nonsense! I know that!
I don't need to be told!
**[17:15] ---**
Here!
**[17:19] ---**
Now take it and get out of my sight!
**[17:22] ---**
O-Okay...
**[17:24] ---**
He was acting so nice at first,
but suddenly grew angry.
**[17:28] ---**
He's one moody
old man, that's for sure.
**[17:31] ---**
Hey! Did you hear that phone call?!
**[17:33] ---**
Yeah. It sounded a
lot like Koda-*san*'s voice.
**[17:37] ---**
Eh? Koda-*san*?
**[17:38] ---**
You mean that Mole Alien?
**[17:41] ---**
There's no question about it.
**[17:42] ---**
Koda-*san* plans to dig up the body
**[17:45] ---**
while Watanuki-*san
*is at the hospital.
**[17:50] ---**
But, is there really
a body buried in this yard?
**[17:55] ---**
Even if there is, it'd be impossible
to tell where it is in just two hours.
**[18:02] ---**
What exactly does
Koda-*san* plan to do?!
**[18:10] ---**
The next day (Saturday)
**[18:16] ---**
Hey! Conan! What time is it?
**[18:20] ---**
Seven minutes to 10:00.
**[18:22] ---**
Even after I told
them not to come...
**[18:25] ---**
That certainly is a big shovel!
**[18:28] ---**
I thought I'd help the
Mole Alien dig up the body!
**[18:32] ---**
Say, what do you
plan to do, Conan-*kun*?
**[18:35] ---**
I intend to stop Koda-*san* somehow.
**[18:38] ---**
Whatever the reason, sneaking
onto others' property isn't right.
**[18:47] ---**
Mitsuhiko! Follow him!
**[18:51] ---**
If he decides to come back,
call us on your Detective League badge!
**[18:55] ---**
Right! Understood!
**[19:04] ---**
What's taking the Mole Alien so long?
**[19:07] ---**
Conan, what time is it?
**[19:10] ---**
10:10.
**[19:17] ---**
That was Inspector Megure!
**[19:21] ---**
Do you think something happened?!
**[19:23] ---**
I'll check it out!
**[19:24] ---**
Hey! Conan!
**[19:27] ---**
Conan-*kun*...
**[19:32] ---**
Let's have a look inside, Inspector.
**[19:35] ---**
Inspector Megure!
**[19:37] ---**
Oh, Mori-*kun*.
**[19:39] ---**
Go on ahead.
**[19:40] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[19:44] ---**
I hear there was an armed robbery?
**[19:47] ---**
Yes. It took place
about seven minutes ago and...
**[19:51] ---**
Does this mean you weren't
here when it happened?
**[19:54] ---**
No, I just happened
to be passing by right now.
**[19:59] ---**
Oh, I see!
**[20:01] ---**
I thought for sure you were at the scene
of the crime, yet again--
**[20:03] ---**
Inspector!
**[20:04] ---**
The security camera got a
look at the robber's face!
**[20:07] ---**
Really?!
**[20:07] ---**
You know him too, Mori-*san*!
**[20:09] ---**
Huh?
**[20:10] ---**
What?
**[20:11] ---**
Just come inside!
**[20:21] ---**
Inspector! Here he is!
**[20:24] ---**
It's him!
**[20:25] ---**
Just who is he, Mori-*kun*?
**[20:29] ---**
Koda-*san*!
**[20:31] ---**
This man's name is Koda Masao!
**[20:35] ---**
But why is he doing a jewel robbery?!
**[20:38] ---**
Whatever the case,
Koda ran off with a dozen or so jewels!
**[20:43] ---**
Inspector Megure!
**[20:44] ---**
The robber's motorcycle
was found near Beika Station!
**[20:48] ---**
What?!
**[20:48] ---**
What?!
**[20:55] ---**
No doubt about it, Inspector.
**[20:57] ---**
The plate number matches
with the witness' testimony perfectly.
**[21:01] ---**
Inspector Megure!
**[21:02] ---**
We found this on the station stairs!
**[21:05] ---**
A jewel...
**[21:07] ---**
No question about it! He got on
the Loop Line from Beika Station!
**[21:11] ---**
I want emergency deployment
at all stations on the Loop Line!
**[21:14] ---**
Understood!
**[21:15] ---**
Everyone else, continue
to scour the vicinity!
**[21:18] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[21:19] ---**
Is Ayumi right? Has Koda-*san
*fooled us just like the Mole Aliens?
**[21:26] ---**
Was the whole story
about his sister a fabrication?!
**[21:32] ---**
But why would he make that up?
**[21:35] ---**
And, even if he had a reason,
why would someone so well-prepared
**[21:40] ---**
commit the crime without sunglasses
or a mask to conceal himself
**[21:46] ---**
and ditch his getaway
vehicle for everyone to see?
**[21:56] ---**
A leaf? And it's fresh and green...
**[22:01] ---**
The fact it's stuck here means
someone opened this not so long ago!
**[22:07] ---**
Wait a minute!
**[22:09] ---**
There was one by
Watanuki-*san*'s back gate, too!
**[22:17] ---**
Could it be?
**[22:19] ---**
Is Koda-*san*'s true objective...
**[24:05] ---**
It's him!
**[24:06] ---**
He really is a Mole Alien!
**[24:09] ---**
Take me to 1st Street in Beika! Hurry!
**[24:12] ---**
R-Right!
**[24:13] ---**
Genta-*kun*! The old
man is taking a taxi back!
**[24:16] ---**
Hey! Mister! Watanuki-*san
*is gonna be back soon!
**[24:21] ---**
If my theory is
correct, Koda-*san* is--!
**[24:26] ---**
On the next Conan--
**[24:27] ---**
"The Mystery of the Mole Alien (Part 2)."
**[24:47] ---**
Next Conan's hint:
**[24:49] ---**
Manhole.
**[24:51] ---**
What kind of holes does Detective Takagi dig?
**[24:53] ---**
His own grave!
**[24:55] ---**
Nice dig.
