***SIGN*** Takigawa Mai (25)
Office Worker
**[00:16] Mai**
Is someone there?
**[00:39] Conan**
Mysterious clouds block your field of view!
**[00:41] Conan**
Clear them away with deductive
reasoning and the sky sparkles!
**[00:43] Conan**
A surprise is accompanied
by the sound of screams!
**[00:44] Conan**
Behind the tragedy is a shocking truth!
**[00:47] Conan**
Always determining the one truth
**[00:48] Conan**
with the body of a child
and the mind of an adult,
**[00:50] Conan**
his name is Detective Conan!

"The Surprise That Leads to Tragedy!"
**[02:41] Ayumi**
That chameleon sure was cute.
**[02:43] Mitsuhiko**
Yes.
**[02:44] Genta**
I'm not surprised your friend
likes weird animals like that.
**[02:51] Mitsuhiko**
It's quite late, isn't it?
**[02:54] Conan**
It's already eight.
**[02:56] Conan**
Huh?
**[02:57] Conan**
That came from downstairs.
**[02:58] Agasa**
Hey!
**[02:59] Neighbor Man**
Where did that come from?
**[03:00] Neighbor Woman**
Probably the room at the end.
**[03:04] Conan**
What happened?
**[03:05] Conan**
Are you all right?
**[03:15] Mai**
It's Yusuke...
**[03:21] Riko**
Yusuke! Yusuke!
***SIGN*** Tsuda Yusuke (25)
Mai's Boyfriend
***SIGN*** Totsuka Riko (25)
Mai and Yusuke's Friend
**[03:49] Mai**
I... I killed him.
**[04:06] Sato**
Let me make sure I've got it straight.
**[04:09] Sato**
When Mai-san came home from
work around eight tonight,
**[04:13] Sato**
she saw someone moving around
inside her apartment,
**[04:16] Sato**
which should have been empty.
**[04:19] Sato**
Thinking she was being robbed,
**[04:21] Sato**
she grabbed the golf club
she kept for self-defense.
**[04:31] Sato**
And then...
**[04:35] Sato**
However, that person was actually
**[04:38] Sato**
her boyfriend Yusuke-san,
**[04:41] Sato**
who appeared out of the darkness
to surprise her with a party.
**[04:51] Sato**
Have I got that right?
**[04:52] Mai**
Yes.
**[04:54] Riko**
It's my fault.
**[04:56] Riko**
I'm the one who suggested we throw
a surprise party for Mai's birthday.
**[05:02] Riko**
That's why...
**[05:03] Mai**
No, it's my fault.
**[05:06] Mai**
If only I'd called the police when
I thought I was being robbed.
**[05:09] Sato**
All three of you were close
childhood friends, correct?
**[05:16] Riko**
Yusuke and I have always been mischievous.
**[05:20] Riko**
We got in trouble with honor student
Mai all the time for pulling pranks.
**[05:26] Takagi**
I checked the third floor hallway
security camera footage.
**[05:39] Takagi**
It's exactly as they described.
**[05:42] Sato**
So no one's at fault. It was
an unfortunate accident.
**[05:45] Conan**
Don't you think it's weird, though?
**[05:47] Conan**
Normally you wouldn't keep a
golf club in an umbrella stand.
**[05:52] Sato**
You're right, not even if
it was for self-defense.
**[05:55] Riko**
Mai had just started living on her own.
**[05:58] Riko**
She was really paranoid about security.
**[06:01] Conan**
Really? So you decided to throw a
surprise party for someone like that?
**[06:06] Riko**
We wanted to cheer her up!
**[06:08] Riko**
Mai's been having trouble at her new job.
**[06:11] Riko**
She seemed really down.
**[06:13] Takagi**
I see.
**[06:18] Agasa**
What is it?
**[06:20] Conan**
I was wondering why they chose this spot.
**[06:23] Conan**
Isn't this the only spot where Mai-san would
be able to see anyone on her way home?
**[06:28] Conan**
This is where you were hiding, right?
**[06:31] Riko**
So what if I was?
**[06:32] Conan**
If you wanted to surprise her,
**[06:34] Conan**
why did you hide by the window
where you'd be easily spotted?
**[06:37] Riko**
So I could see Mai coming home.
**[06:40] Riko**
I moved over there right after that.
**[06:43] Conan**
Did you loosen the light bulb
as part of your surprise, too?
**[06:49] Takagi**
It did seem to be loose.
**[06:52] Mai**
So it wasn't broken.
**[06:54] Sato**
Did you do that, too?
**[06:55] Riko**
I admit I took it too far.
**[06:58] Riko**
But it was for the surprise!
I didn't mean any harm!
**[07:02] Riko**
Give me a break! This is hard for me, too.
**[07:06] Mai**
Riko...
**[07:07] Ayumi**
I feel sorry for them.
**[07:09] Mitsuhiko**
They're all victims here.
**[07:11] Genta**
Give it a rest, Conan.
**[07:19] Sato**
So these are the victim's belongings.
**[07:21] Takagi**
This is everything.

***SIGN*** Call
**[07:28] Sato**
There are a lot of calls here from Mai-san.
**[07:31] Mai**
Listening to Yusuke's voice
always helped me feel safe
**[07:34] Mai**
when I felt anxious or was having a bad time,
**[07:37] Mai**
so I couldn't help myself.
**[07:40] Mai**
But he'll never answer my calls again.
**[07:46] Takagi**
There are a lot of calls
from Riko-san recently, too.
**[07:50] Takagi**
Look. He only received
calls from Riko-san today.
**[07:53] Riko**
It was for the party!
**[07:55] Riko**
I called him a bunch of times.
**[08:02] Genta**
I'm hungry. Let's go.
**[08:06] Agasa**
You're right. Come on,
Conan-kun. Let's get going.
**[08:11] Genta**
I'm starving.
**[08:13] Conan**
Hey, wai—
**[08:14] Genta**
What's this?
**[08:16] Genta**
This thing is cool.
**[08:19] Agasa**
Don't touch people's things without asking.
**[08:23] Sato**
That's pepper spray.
**[08:26] Conan**
Mai-san.
**[08:28] Conan**
Why didn't you use that spray?
**[08:31] Riko**
Kids don't know anything.
**[08:33] Riko**
Pepper spray can make someone back off,
**[08:37] Riko**
but it's relatively harmless.
**[08:39] Riko**
Right?
**[08:40] Sato**
Well, it's not a weapon
designed to hurt others.
**[08:44] Sato**
It's just for self-defense.
**[08:46] Riko**
You need to get close to
someone to use it, too.
**[08:50] Riko**
When you're really in trouble,
**[08:52] Riko**
a long-reach and highly
damaging weapon like—
**[08:54] Conan**
So you recommended that
Mai-san use a golf club?
**[09:00] Mai**
It's true.
**[09:06] Ayumi**
A handkerchief?
**[09:09] Ayumi**
Is this blood?!
**[09:14] Riko**
It's mine.
**[09:16] Riko**
Must've dropped it.
**[09:17] Riko**
That's odd. I thought I put it away.
**[09:22] Sato**
That's Yusuke-san's blood, isn't it?
**[09:25] Riko**
I was so focused on trying
to stop the bleeding.
**[09:27] Takagi**
But why is your lipstick on it, too?
**[09:30] Riko**
From some other time I used it.
**[09:35] Conan**
Huh? Detective Takagi, do you
have lipstick around your mouth?
**[09:41] Takagi**
Huh? What?
**[09:43] Takagi**
Wh-What are you talking about, Conan-kun?
**[09:45] Takagi**
That's not possible.
**[09:49] Sato**
Is that what happened?
**[09:59] Riko**
Can I leave now?
**[10:01] Riko**
I have work tomorrow.
**[10:03] Mai**
Riko...
**[10:04] Sato**
Wait.
**[10:06] Sato**
At first glance, Yusuke-san's death
seems like an unfortunate accident.
**[10:11] Sato**
But all of this was set up by Riko-san,
**[10:15] Sato**
who planned this surprise party.
**[10:21] Sato**
You made sure Mai-san would
see you on her way home.
**[10:26] Sato**
You loosened the light bulb
so the light wouldn't turn on.
**[10:31] Sato**
And you encouraged Mai-san to switch to using
a highly damaging golf club for self-defense,
**[10:37] Sato**
all so Mai-san would mistake Yusuke-san
for a burglar and hurt him.
**[10:43] Sato**
Isn't that right, Riko-san?
**[10:46] Riko**
I'm telling you, it was just a
series of unfortunate events.
**[10:49] Takagi**
It's too many to be a coincidence, though.
**[10:52] Agasa**
You're right.
**[10:55] Mai**
Riko would never do that.
**[10:57] Riko**
Mai.
**[10:58] Mai**
Besides, she has no motive.
**[11:00] Mai**
Why would Riko do that?
**[11:03] Sato**
Excuse me.
**[11:05] Sato**
This is Yusuke-san's blood and your
lipstick on this handkerchief.
**[11:11] Riko**
I told you, I was trying
to stop the bleeding.
**[11:14] Sato**
Then you would've held it against his head.
**[11:16] Sato**
But only the victim's mouth had been wiped.
**[11:23] Sato**
Why did you only wipe the victim's mouth,
**[11:25] Sato**
and what was your lipstick doing there?
**[11:29] Sato**
You were kissing, weren't you?
**[11:33] Sato**
In the darkness, as you waited for Mai-san.
**[11:41] Sato**
When the lights turned on, you noticed
your own lipstick on Yusuke-san's lips,
**[11:49] Sato**
so you rushed to wipe his lips clean.
**[11:52] Sato**
You and Yusuke-san were dating, weren't?
**[11:56] Sato**
Without Mai-san's knowledge.
**[11:59] Mai**
You're kidding, right?
**[12:00] Mai**
Riko, how could you make
me kill Yusuke over that?
**[12:05] Mai**
That's awful.
**[12:07] Riko**
It's not like that!
**[12:08] Riko**
I just wanted Yusuke to be seriously
injured so you'd break up.
**[12:14] Riko**
I really didn't think he'd die.
**[12:23] Agasa**
We know the truth now,
but it's heartbreaking.
**[12:33] Agasa**
What are you glaring about?
**[12:36] Genta**
I gotta pee! One second!
**[12:41] Genta**
Where are the bathroom lights?
**[12:44] Genta**
Crap, crap.
**[12:45] Genta**
Which one is it?
**[12:47] Genta**
Well, whatever.
**[12:50] Mitsuhiko**
Hey, Genta-kun.
**[12:52] Genta**
Sorry. Must be this one, then.
**[12:56] Mitsuhiko**
Turn the lights on already.
**[12:58] Genta**
But I can't see the switches. Where are they?
**[13:02] Mai**
Wait. I'll do it.
**[13:07] Mai**
I'm sorry. Are you okay?
**[13:09] Ayumi**
Yeah, but I can't see anything.
**[13:12] Conan**
Hold still for a second. You'll be fine.
**[13:16] Conan**
Your eyes will get used to the darkness.
**[13:22] Genta**
You're right. I'm starting to be able to see.
**[13:25] Ayumi**
Me, too.
**[13:26] Mitsuhiko**
Me, too.
**[13:27] Conan**
See?
**[13:30] Conan**
*Wait a minute. Could it be?*
**[14:12] Ayumi**
Are they both going to be arrested?
**[14:14] Takagi**
Mai-san will probably be
able to come home soon.
**[14:17] Takagi**
I'm sure it'll be recognized
as an act of self-defense.
**[14:22] Takagi**
But Riko-san...
**[14:24] Riko**
I'm telling you, I didn't
think he'd actually die.
**[14:28] Sato**
You can tell us more in the interview room.
**[14:31] Genta**
Huh? Where's Conan-kun?
**[14:34] Sato**
Takagi-kun, he's not with you?
**[14:36] Takagi**
N-No.
**[14:38] Takagi**
He was reviewing Yusuke-san's phone
**[14:40] Takagi**
and the security camera footage
at Agasa-san's request.
**[14:45] Agasa**
I-Is that right?
**[14:54] Mai**
He's playing with fire inside my apartment!
**[14:56] Sato**
What?
**[14:57] Takagi**
But...
**[14:58] Mai**
Open the door!
**[15:09] Conan**
I knew it.
**[15:11] Genta**
Hey, no fair!
**[15:13] Mai**
Wh-What are you doing?
**[15:16] Conan**
I wanted to confirm something.
**[15:18] Conan**
But now we know exactly what happened.
**[15:21] Conan**
Right, Professor?
**[15:22] Agasa**
Uh, yeah.
**[15:30] Sato**
Know what?
**[15:32] Agasa**
Who the true culprit is, of course.
**[15:35] Takagi**
The true culprit?
**[15:36] Agasa**
Though we believed Mai-san
was Riko-san's pitiful puppet
**[15:40] Agasa**
manipulated into killing her own boyfriend,
**[15:42] Agasa**
she's actually the true culprit,
**[15:45] Agasa**
who was manipulating everyone involved.
**[15:50] All**
What?
**[15:51] Mai**
What?
**[15:53] Agasa**
Mai-san knew what Riko-san was planning
**[15:57] Agasa**
and pretended to be tricked
so she could kill Yusuke-san.
**[16:03] Sato**
She'd be found innocent due to self-defense,
**[16:06] Sato**
and Riko-san would be
held wholly responsible.
**[16:09] Sato**
Is that what you're saying?
**[16:11] Agasa**
Yes. It was probably also Mai-san who led us
**[16:15] Agasa**
to discover the handkerchief
**[16:18] Agasa**
used to wipe Yusuke-san's mouth
so we'd realize what Riko-san did.
**[16:21] Agasa**
A handkerchief couldn't happen
to fall out of that pocket.
**[16:25] Agasa**
Riko-san was on her guard.
**[16:27] Agasa**
Only Mai-san, who had been
by her side the whole time,
**[16:30] Agasa**
had the opportunity to take it.
**[16:33] Riko**
What?
**[16:35] Mai**
You're lying. I really didn't know anything.
**[16:39] Agasa**
Then why didn't you call Yusuke-san
when you entered your apartment?
**[16:41] Agasa**
You thought there was a burglar inside.
**[16:48] Agasa**
You said you've always called Yusuke-san
**[16:51] Agasa**
when you felt anxious.
**[16:55] Sato**
Yes, Mai-san herself said that, and it's
clear from his call history as well.
**[17:01] Agasa**
But tonight, when you should've been
feeling more anxious than ever,
**[17:05] Agasa**
you didn't call him,
**[17:07] Agasa**
when normally you would've
kept him on the line.
**[17:10] Takagi**
You're right.
**[17:11] Takagi**
He only received calls from Riko-san
today and not a single one from Mai-san.
**[17:16] Agasa**
Of course, it's because calling
him would've ruined your plan.
**[17:24] Agasa**
Furthermore, check the
security camera footage.
**[17:27] Sato**
Takagi-kun.
**[17:28] Takagi**
Yes, ma'am.
**[17:30] Agasa**
Don't you think there's something strange
about the way Mai-san walked down the hallway?
**[17:36] Takagi**
She does seem exceptionally careful,
**[17:38] Takagi**
but it doesn't seem odd for someone who
thinks there's a burglar in their apartment.
**[17:44] Sato**
It's slight, but she appears to
be touching the wall as she walks.
**[17:48] Agasa**
If you zoom in on Mai-san's face
as she enters the apartment,
**[17:52] Agasa**
you'll understand why.
**[17:58] Sato**
She's closing her eyes?
**[18:01] Mitsuhiko**
I've got it.
**[18:02] Mitsuhiko**
She's adjusting her eyes to the darkness.
**[18:04] Ayumi**
Like we did earlier.
**[18:07] Agasa**
Its effectiveness differs
for everyone, though.
**[18:10] Genta**
But why?
**[18:12] Agasa**
So she could accurately strike
Yusuke-san in the head
**[18:16] Agasa**
with the golf club in the
dark right after that.
**[18:21] Agasa**
There's no other plausible explanation.
**[18:23] Sato**
So you knew everything.
**[18:26] Mai**
Th-That's just conjecture, isn't it?
**[18:29] Mai**
Not evidence.
**[18:32] Mai**
Go on.
**[18:33] Mai**
If you're so sure I did it,
then show me the evidence.
**[18:37] Agasa**
You've already shown us the evidence
through your own actions, Mai-san.
**[18:42] Mai**
What?
**[18:43] Agasa**
Don't you find it strange?
**[18:45] Agasa**
When Conan-kun went missing earlier...
**[18:48] Mai**
*He's playing with fire inside my apartment!*
**[18:52] Sato**
You're right. How was Mai-san
the only one who knew that?
**[18:56] Takagi**
She couldn't see inside
the apartment from there.
**[19:00] Conan**
This is the answer.
**[19:09] Sato**
Is this a camera?
**[19:12] Agasa**
That's right.
**[19:14] Agasa**
It's probably a baby monitor,
**[19:18] Agasa**
the type that detects movement
and sends video to your phone.
**[19:24] Sato**
Excuse me.
**[19:26] Agasa**
Naturally, it's also an infrared camera
that takes clear video even in darkness.
**[19:34] Sato**
You're right. You can see in the dark.
**[19:43] Agasa**
Mai-san probably used it to determine
what was happening inside,
**[19:48] Agasa**
including where Yusuke-san was
hiding and where he'd come from.
**[19:53] Sato**
Then when Conan-kun lit the candle earlier...
**[19:57] Agasa**
I asked him to do it.
**[19:59] Agasa**
Because she accurately described
what Conan-kun was doing,
**[20:04] Agasa**
it proves Mai-san used a baby monitor
**[20:06] Agasa**
to deliberately kill Yusuke-san.
**[20:15] Mai**
Looks like I lost.
**[20:19] Riko**
You knew about me and Yusuke?
**[20:22] Mai**
Of course I did.
**[20:24] Mai**
The three of us had been
together since we were kids.
**[20:28] Mai**
I knew you two better than anyone.
**[20:32] Agasa**
That's why you knew which
conditions were necessary
**[20:38] Agasa**
to plan this murder.
**[20:42] Agasa**
You chose this timing to begin living alone.
**[20:46] Agasa**
You exaggerated your security concerns.
**[20:49] Agasa**
And Riko-san and Yusuke-san
had mischievous personalities.
**[20:53] Agasa**
It's too perfect a combination of factors.
**[20:56] Agasa**
We should assume Mai-san
made them happen on purpose.
**[21:00] Agasa**
Furthermore, Riko-san's plan
**[21:02] Agasa**
seems a bit too elaborate for her
to have come up with on her own.
**[21:07] Agasa**
It was probably Mai-san
who gave her the idea.
**[21:11] Agasa**
Well? Does that sound familiar?
**[21:18] (Flashback) Mai**
Look, Riko.
**[21:19] (Flashback) Mai**
Someone overseas mistook their husband
for a burglar and shot him dead.
**[21:23] (Flashback) Mai**
Scary, right?
**[21:25] (Flashback) Riko**
What? Seriously?
**[21:27] (Flashback) Riko**
Wow, that's crazy.
**[21:34] Mai**
It's your fault.
**[21:37] Mai**
I trusted you two more than anyone.
**[21:43] Mai**
But you...
**[23:21] Sato**
By the way, Takagi-kun,
what was that lipstick?
**[23:26] Takagi**
That was a misunderstanding.
**[23:30] Sato**
Oh, really?
**[23:36] Takagi**
Conan-kun!
**[23:39] Conan**
Crap, I forgot to explain myself.
