SIGN    Tsukuba Corporation
[00:02] Shima
    Why did he call another executive meeting?
SIGN    Shima Itaru (55)
    Tsukuba Corporation Managing Director
[00:07] Shima
    You're the VP, Nogi-san.
    Have you heard anything?
[00:11] Nogi
    No, nothing.
SIGN    Nogi Gakuto (58)
    Tsukuba Corporation Vice President
[00:14] Nogi
    It's probably just another
    new business venture.
[00:19] Tsukuba
    Hey, guys. Thanks for waiting.
[00:22] Tsukuba
    Boy, I'm beat.
[00:24] Tsukuba
    I was attacked again last night.
[00:27] Nogi
    Again?
[00:29] Tsukuba
    Yeah, this is the second incident.
[00:31] Tsukuba
    It's probably someone jealous of me, Tsukuba
    Shunichi, and my shrewd business skills.
SIGN    Tsukuba Shunichi (40)
    Tsukuba Corporation President
[00:38] Shima
    Did you report it to the police?
SIGN    Hirose Aoi
    (29) Secretary
[00:40] Aoi
    The president said that won't be necessary.
[00:44] Tsukuba
    I'm invincible and immortal.
[00:47] Tsukuba
    The next time I'm attacked,
    I'll take down my attacker.
[00:54] Tsukuba
    Anyway, I've called this meeting to discuss
    none other than a new business venture.
[01:00] Tsukuba
    I'm going to buy a theme park.
SIGN    The Strong Prey on the Weak This is the Only Way
SIGN    The Next Morning
[01:10] Kogoro
    You didn't have to come get me.
[01:13] Conan
    But Ran-neechan said there'd be trouble
[01:15] Conan
    if you stayed out drinking all night
    and slept on the roadside.
[01:23] Kogoro
    Someone's passed out drunk here.
[01:27] Kogoro
    Hey, you. You'll catch a cold.
[01:31] Kogoro
    Hey.
[01:35] Kogoro
    It's too late. This guy isn't asleep,
[01:40] Kogoro
    he's dead.
[01:43] Conan
    Beyond detective skills
    capable of identifying the truth
[01:45] Conan
    is the power to lead us
    to what we should believe.
[01:48] Conan
    An invincible and immortal manager
[01:50] Conan
    and the mystery of the
    crime manifesto left behind!
[01:52] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[01:53] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[01:55] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    Pride of the Immortal Man
[03:39] Conan
    "Pride of the Immortal Man!"
[03:45] Takagi
    According to the license he had on him,
[03:48] Takagi
    the deceased is Beika City resident
    Tsukuba Shunichi-san, 40 years old.
[03:53] Takagi
    He's the president of
    the Tsukuba Corporation.
[03:56] Takagi
    The estimated time of death is
    between 8PM and 10PM last night.
[04:01] Takagi
    We believe he died after falling
    from the roof of this building.
[04:05] Chiba
    Inspector Megure!
[04:07] Chiba
    I examined the roof, and it's hard
    to imagine he accidentally fell.
[04:12] Megure
    Then it was a suicide or murder.
[04:15] Takagi
    We also found this in the body's pocket.
SIGN    You'll realize the third time wasn't the charm for you when you're in hell! Daikichi the Reaper
[04:19] Megure
    "You'll realize the third time wasn't
    the charm for you when you're in hell!"
[04:26] Megure
    "Daikichi the Reaper."
[04:28] Megure
    What is this?
[04:30] Kogoro
    Looks like a threatening letter.
[04:32] Conan
    It could be considered a manifesto.
[04:35] Takagi
    That's what I thought, so I had the
    Tsukuba Corporation executives come here.
[04:40] Nogi
    This was found in the president's pocket?
[04:43] Shima
    "Third time's the charm?" Could it be?
[04:47] Megure
    Does that ring a bell?
[04:50] Shima
    The president was attacked twice.
[04:54] All
    What?
[04:56] Aoi
    But the president said it wasn't necessary
    to report the incidents to the police
[05:00] Aoi
    because he'd take down his attacker
    the next time it happened.
[05:03] Megure
    I see. So that's why it references
    "third time's the charm."
[05:07] Megure
    Do you have any idea who might have done it?
[05:11] Nogi
    No. The president suspected it was
    someone who was jealous of him.
[05:16] Sadako
    Move! Let me through!
[05:18] Police
    Hey, you! Stop!
[05:19] Sadako
    Shunichi!
[05:20] Nogi
    Sadako-san.
[05:22] Megure
    Who is she?
[05:24] Takagi
    You can't do that.
[05:24] Nogi
    Her name is Machigawa Sadako.
[05:24] Sadako
    Shunichi!
[05:25] Chiba
    Stay away from the crime scene.
[05:27] Nogi
    She's the president's aunt.
[05:29] Nogi
    He trusted her more than anybody.
SIGN    Machigawa Sadako (50)
    Tsukuba's Aunt
[05:31] Sadako
    Shunichi!
[05:33] Sadako
    Why did you have to kill yourself?
[05:36] Megure
    Kill himself?
[05:40] Sadako
    Last night, I received a call from Shunichi.
[05:45] Sadako
    He was muttering like he was concerned about
    something. He wasn't acting like himself.
[05:50] Sadako
    He said he was tired of acting strong.
[05:54] Sadako
    Now that I think about it, that was...
[05:58] Megure
    What's Tsukuba-san's call history?
[06:01] Takagi
    Right.
[06:02] Takagi
    The last call he made was to Machigawa
    Sadako-san last night at 9:40 PM.
[06:10] Megure
    That matches the estimated time of death.
[06:13] Kogoro
    But that call's not enough
    to assume it was a suicide.
[06:18] Aoi
    Um, excuse me.
[06:19] Aoi
    I received a call yesterday evening.
[06:23] Aoi
    It was from someone who'd
    received the president's help.
[06:27] Aoi
    They saw him leaving a psychiatric
    clinic looking very concerned.
[06:33] Aoi
    They called me because they were worried.
[06:36] Aoi
    When I told the president
    about it, he said...
[06:40] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    That was someone else. It wasn't me.
[06:43] Aoi
    But it wasn't someone else after all.
[06:46] Nogi
    Perhaps he was so distressed that
    he was secretly seeing a doctor.
[06:53] Takagi
    Does that mean Tsukuba-san killed himself?
[06:56] Chiba
    But what about that manifesto?
[06:59] Takagi
    Oh, right. But what about
    the phone call to Sadako-san?
[07:03] Kogoro
    The culprit pretended to be Tsukuba-san
    on the phone to make it look like a suicide.
[07:08] Kogoro
    No, then they wouldn't
    have left a manifesto.
SIGN    Sudako 2-chome Intersection
[07:16] Officer A
    This is the Sudako 2-chome Intersection.
[07:19] Takagi
    While he was waiting for the light
    to change at this intersection...
[07:22] Kogoro
    He was nearly struck by a car
    that ignored the light.
[07:27] Kogoro
    Two days ago, around 2 PM?
[07:29] Officer A
    What? Two days ago at 2 PM?
[07:31] Kogoro
    Yeah.
[07:32] Officer A
    Then that's not possible.
[07:34] Both
    What?
[07:35] Conan
    What do you mean?
[07:37] Officer A
    Two days ago, they started filming
    a movie here since that morning.
[07:41] Officer A
    The area was closed to the public.
[07:43] Officer A
    Naturally, it was closed to vehicles, too.
[07:50] Takagi
    This is where the first attack took place.
[07:54] Kogoro
    While waiting on this
    platform for the train,
[07:57] Kogoro
    he was pushed by the culprit.
[08:03] Conan
    Then maybe the culprit
    was captured on video.
[08:08] Takagi
    Uh, this is the footage from that time?
[08:12] Employee A
    Yes. At that time on that day, this station
    was closed due to electrical issues.
[08:21] Takagi
    What do you suppose this means?
[08:23] Takagi
    Not only did we fail to find
    any clues about the culprit,
[08:25] Takagi
    but we learned neither attack
    could have happened.
[08:30] Conan
    Then wouldn't that make
    Tsukuba-san's story a lie?
[08:36] Both
    A lie?
[08:37] Takagi
    But why would Tsukuba-san lie about that?
[08:40] Kogoro
    Yeah. That doesn't explain the note either.
[08:46] Megure
    In other words, you found no leads
    on a possible murder either.
SIGN    Tsukuba's Mansion
[08:49] Takagi
    You mean it's not a suicide?
[08:52] Megure
    No. There are no records of Tsukuba-san
    visiting any psychiatric clinic in the city.
[08:58] Megure
    We questioned the employees
    who came to arrange the funeral,
[09:02] Megure
    and they all said the president wasn't the
    kind of person who would've killed himself.
[09:09] Megure
    The Tsukuba Corporation was
    originally a furniture manufacturer.
SIGN    Tsukuba
SIGN    Tsukuba Furniture
[09:13] Megure
    His grandfather founded the company,
    and his father steadily grew the business.
SIGN    Tsukuba Furniture
[09:19] Megure
    But five years ago, his father died,
[09:22] Megure
    and upon becoming the third
    president, Tsukuba-san said...
[09:25] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    Managing a business is a game.
    A kind of play!
[09:28] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    And games should be won!
    Come with me, everyone.
[09:32] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    I'll show you all the pleasant
    dreams you can handle!
[09:36] Megure
    He renamed the company from "Tsukuba
    Furniture" to "The Tsukuba Corporation."
[09:40] Megure
    He expanded the types of business it handled
[09:43] Megure
    by buying companies he
    wanted one after another.
[09:46] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    In this world, the strong prey on the weak.
[09:48] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    As long as you keep pushing
    assertively, you'll never lose.
[09:52] Megure
    On the other hand, he had no interest
[09:54] Megure
    in the company's original
    business of furniture production.
[09:56] Megure
    He left all of it to Nogi Gakuto,
[09:59] Megure
    who'd served as vice president
    since his father ran the company.
[10:02] Megure
    Machigawa Sadako-san was the only one
[10:04] Megure
    allowed to offer her opinions
    to Tsukuba-san, but...
[10:08] (Flashback) Tsukuba
    I'll be fine, Auntie.
    I'm invincible, after all.
[10:13] Megure
    Because of his relentless
    assertiveness and personality,
[10:18] Megure
    he had quite a few fans
    among his young employees.
[10:25] Takagi
    It certainly is hard to
    believe he killed himself.
[10:28] Kogoro
    But a murder isn't looking very likely either.
[10:31] Kogoro
    And he seems more like a guy who'd go
    after someone else than become a victim.
[10:35] Conan
    And he was apparently
    lying about being attacked.
[10:40] Chiba
    Inspector Megure, we found
    something interesting in the study.
SIGN    How to tell the difference between a suicide and a murder
[10:44] Takagi
    "How to tell the difference
    between a suicide and a murder?"
[10:47] Megure
    Why did Tsukuba-san search this?
[10:50] Chiba
    He searched this as well.
[10:53] Conan
    Self-defense?
[10:58] Kogoro
    So that's how it is.
[11:00] Kogoro
    Tsukuba-san was murdered after all
[11:04] Kogoro
    because he planned to kill someone else.
[11:13] Megure
    What do you mean by that, Mori-kun?
[11:16] Kogoro
    Tsukuba-san was plotting to murder
    person X and make it look like a suicide.
SIGN    How to tell the difference between a suicide and a murder
[11:23] Kogoro
    But once he realized it would be
    difficult to fool the police,
SIGN    Self-defense
[11:26] Kogoro
    he decided to go with another strategy.
[11:30] Kogoro
    He would invent a story
    about a persistent attacker
[11:33] Kogoro
    and then murder his target X.
[11:39] Kogoro
    By planting the manifesto on X,
[11:42] Kogoro
    he intended to make it look like
    he was attacked a third time,
[11:45] Kogoro
    and killed his attacker in self-defense.
[11:48] Kogoro
    However...
[11:50] Kogoro
    It was Tsukuba-san who ended up
    killed by his would-be victim instead.
[11:57] Kogoro
    As a result, he never used the manifesto,
    so it remained in his pocket,
[12:04] Kogoro
    making it seem as though Tsukuba-san was
    killed when attacked for the third time.
[12:10] Takagi
    I see! If he lied about being
    attacked twice to set up a murder...
[12:18] Megure
    Then that explains the manifesto, too.
[12:22] Chiba
    And these search results.
[12:24] Kogoro
    So, who is X?
[12:27] Kogoro
    Last night, the call Machigawa
    Sadako-san received was from X.
[12:33] Kogoro
    They pretended to be Tsukuba-san
    to make his death look like a suicide.
[12:37] Kogoro
    But X dug their own grave.
[12:39] Kogoro
    If X knew Machigawa Sadako-san was
    the final person Tsukuba-san would call,
[12:45] Kogoro
    they must have been close to him.
[12:47] Kogoro
    They even called her to the scene so
    she'd say Tsukuba's death was a suicide.
[12:54] Megure
    In other words, it was...
[12:56] Nogi
    It was me!
[12:58] Nogi
    I'm the one who thought Sadako-san
    would like to see him and called her.
[13:04] Nogi
    Wait a minute. Does that mean the president
    was killed by his would-be victim?
[13:09] Nogi
    Either way, it wasn't me.
[13:11] Nogi
    It's true that I didn't get along with him.
[13:15] Nogi
    But he could've just fired me
    if I was an eyesore.
[13:19] Kogoro
    But...
[13:22] Nogi
    The president must've realized how
    foolish it was to plan to kill someone.
[13:29] Nogi
    His self-hatred made him call Sadako-san
    to say goodbye before ending his own life.
[13:36] Nogi
    Perhaps that's the truth.
[13:39] Nogi
    Excuse me.
[13:43] Takagi
    Nogi-san seems to want this
    treated as a suicide.
[13:47] Megure
    In any case, let's go off
    Mori-kun's reasoning and look for X.
[13:51] Takagi
    Yes, sir.
[13:56] Kogoro
    X is definitely Nogi the vice president.
[14:00] Kogoro
    I'll make him admit it.
SIGN    The Strong Prey on the
    Weak This is the Only Way
[14:04] Conan
    "The strong prey on the weak."
[14:07] Conan
    "This is the only way."
[14:09] Conan
    That stuff never lasts forever.
[14:13] Kogoro
    Admit it!
[14:14] Nogi
    Let go!
[14:16] Kogoro
    Tsukuba must've really resented you!
[14:20] Conan
    He's not going to answer your questions.
[14:22] Nogi
    Let go of me!
[14:24] Nogi
    Even if he resented me, he was
    an assertive and confident man.
[14:29] Nogi
    He never let anyone know
    what he was thinking.
[14:32] Nogi
    There's no way I'd know.
[14:35] Nogi
    How dare you suspect me
    without any evidence?
[14:40] Kogoro
    I wouldn't be asking if I had evidence.
[14:43] Conan
    There's one other scenario
    that explains everything.
[14:50] Aoi
    What was the president like?
[14:52] Conan
    Yeah. Kogoro-no-ojisan wants to know.
[14:59] Aoi
    Well, he was certainly stylish.
[15:02] Aoi
    He was very concerned about
    how others perceived him.
[15:05] Aoi
    He hated being seen as weak or uncool.
[15:10] Conan
    I knew it. If he was that kind of
    person, then it's possible.
[15:14] Conan
    But I'm still missing something important.
[15:18] Nogi
    If he killed himself,
[15:20] Nogi
    then what he revealed to Sadako-san
    in his final moments must've been true.
[15:24] Nogi
    He was only pretending to be so strong.
[15:28] Shima
    And he finally became tired
    of putting on an act.
[15:31] Nogi
    So he killed himself to escape from reality.
[15:34] Nogi
    He even admitted on the phone
    that he was a phony and a loser.
[15:42] Man A
    So it was all an act, huh?
[15:44] Man A
    But I believed he was strong and invincible.
[15:47] Woman B
    I'm so disillusioned.
[15:52] Sadako
    Shunichi said that last night on the phone.
[16:03] Kogoro
    Inspector, has there been
    a development in the case?
[16:06] Megure
    You're the one who called us here.
[16:08] Kogoro
    What? I didn't do any—
[16:12] Kogoro
    I didn't do anything...
[16:16] Kogoro
    I was confused.
[16:19] Kogoro
    There is no X, and Tsukuba-san
    wasn't plotting to kill anyone.
[16:25] Kogoro
    Tsukuba-san was planning his own suicide.
[16:29] All
    What?
[16:30] Sadako
    I knew it.
[16:32] Kogoro
    He lied about the two attempts on his life,
[16:35] Kogoro
    and created a manifesto to make
    his suicide look like a murder.
[16:41] Kogoro
    Tsukuba-san must've been exhausted from
    conducting business aggressively for five years.
[16:45] Kogoro
    But as someone very concerned
    with what others thought of him,
[16:49] Kogoro
    Tsukuba-san couldn't change course now.
[16:51] Kogoro
    It would seem uncool, after all.
[16:54] Kogoro
    So he decided to go out on a high point
    and end things with his death.
[16:59] Kogoro
    However, believing that taking
    his own life would be uncool,
[17:04] Kogoro
    he tried to make it look like a murder.
[17:07] Megure
    So he wasn't searching how to make
    a murder look like a suicide, but...
SIGN    How to tell the difference between a suicide and a murder
[17:14] Kogoro
    How to make a suicide look like a murder.
[17:18] Kogoro
    But realizing that would be difficult,
[17:20] Kogoro
    he thought to have someone
    actually murder him instead.
[17:24] Kogoro
    He would have them kill him in self-defense.
SIGN    Self-defense
[17:31] Kogoro
    But that wouldn't work either.
[17:33] Kogoro
    That would make the fault his,
    and that would be uncool.
[17:37] Kogoro
    He returned to his original idea of
    making his suicide look like a murder
[17:41] Kogoro
    and came up with a great idea.
[17:44] Kogoro
    "He was attacked and eventually killed...
[17:46] Kogoro
    ...by someone who envied his
    shrewd business skills."
[17:50] Kogoro
    If he could make it look like that,
    not only would he deceive the police,
[17:54] Kogoro
    but he'd go down in history
    as a revolutionary businessman.
[18:00] Megure
    In other words, Tsukuba-san killed himself.
[18:03] Both
    That's what I've been—
[18:05] Kogoro
    It wasn't a suicide.
[18:08] Kogoro
    Someone who didn't want people
    to know he killed himself
[18:10] Kogoro
    wouldn't make a phone call that would
    make his death look like a suicide.
[18:15] Kogoro
    Last night, it was Tsukuba-san's killer
    who called Machigawa Sadako-san.
[18:21] Kogoro
    And that was you, Nogi Gakuto-san.
[18:26] Nogi
    Mori-san, you still suspect me?
[18:29] Kogoro
    You said something earlier.
[18:33] (Flashback) Nogi
    He even admitted on the phone
    that he was a phony and a loser.
[18:39] Kogoro
    But Sadako-san didn't
    mention that this morning.
[18:44] Sadako
    I was beside myself with grief.
[18:47] Sadako
    I only remembered when the boy
    with glasses asked about it.
[18:51] Kogoro
    But you knew.
[18:54] Kogoro
    Only the person who made that call
    pretending to be Tsukuba-san
[18:58] Kogoro
    could've known that, Nogi-san.
[19:01] Nogi
    Even if I made that call,
    that doesn't mean I killed him.
[19:08] Kogoro
    You're right, but if the police narrow
    their investigation to one suspect,
[19:14] Kogoro
    they will find evidence eventually.
[19:19] Kogoro
    You despised Tsukuba-san
    and wanted to kill him.
[19:23] Kogoro
    When you heard he'd been attacked
    again, you knew you had to hurry.
[19:27] Megure
    But if he wanted Tsukuba-san dead,
    couldn't he have let his attacker do it?
[19:34] Kogoro
    Because he couldn't allow his
    death be an obvious murder.
[19:39] Kogoro
    He had to make people believe it was suicide
    so Tsukuba-san would be labeled a loser.
[19:46] Kogoro
    Isn't that right, Nogi-san?
[19:52] Nogi
    That's right.
[19:54] Nogi
    I'd make him look like a loser who took
    his own life to escape from reality,
[20:01] Nogi
    despite all his claims
    about being unstoppable.
[20:03] Nogi
    That would open the eyes of his young fans!
[20:07] Megure
    You killed someone just
    to damage his reputation?
[20:09] Kogoro
    That's right.
[20:11] Kogoro
    Last night, he brought Tsukuba-san up
    to this roof and pushed him to his death.
[20:17] Kogoro
    After that, he called Sadako-san
    and hinted at suicide.
[20:22] Kogoro
    He even made it look like
    Tsukuba-san was troubled mentally.
[20:27] Nogi
    A few days ago, I saw him
    leaving a psychiatric clinic.
[20:33] Kogoro
    In other words, two men
    were behind this death.
[20:38] Takagi
    Tsukuba-san, who tried to make
    his suicide look like a murder.
[20:42] Chiba
    And Nogi-san, who tried to make
    his murder look like a suicide.
[20:46] Kogoro
    Yes. Their opposite plans came together
    to create this strange scenario.
[20:55] Nogi
    I knew it was strange when he
    didn't resist when I pushed him.
[21:00] Nogi
    It was because he intended to kill himself.
[21:06] Sadako
    Don't human lives matter to you at all?
[21:08] Sadako
    Both you and Shunichi are idiots!
[21:12] Megure
    This isn't a question of cool or uncool.
[21:15] Megure
    We should value human life.
[21:18] Megure
    There's no excuse for murder!
[21:21] Megure
    Take him away.
[21:22] Both
    Yes, sir.
[22:48] Conan
    Aw, man. It's totally dark out.
[22:52] Kogoro
    Yeah.
[22:53] Conan
    Ran-neechan is probably worried.
[22:56] Kogoro
    Yeah.
[22:59] Kogoro
    Oh, come on. Did someone
    else fall to their death?
[23:02] Kogoro
    Hey, you. Are you okay?
[23:06] Kogoro
    Hey, are you okay?
[23:08] Man
    I'm fine.
[23:11] Kogoro
    Oh, this one's actually passed out drunk.
[23:14] Man
    Ow.
[23:17] Man
    Ouch...
[23:19] Man
    What was that for, mister?
[23:24] Kogoro
    Hey! You shouldn't hurt people
    who are sleeping, kid.
[23:29] Kogoro
    I'll give him a stern talking to,
    so will you let him off the hook?
[23:35] Kogoro
    Come on, kid.
[23:36] Conan
    I'm sorry.
[23:39] Conan
    Is that something a
    great detective should do?
