**[00:01] ---**
Encounters are mysterious!
But Osaka is even more so!
**[00:04] ---**
I'm so glad I'm with you!
**[00:06] ---**
Today is a sixty-minute Naniwa special
**[00:08] ---**
filled with incidents and mystery!
**[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!
**[01:45] ---**
This is the incident in Toyonaka.
**[01:48] ---**
And this is last
week's incident in Harakata.
**[01:53] ---**
There were no witnesses to these killings,
**[01:55] ---**
and they're dozens of kilometers away.
**[01:59] ---**
We're checking into how
these two victims are connected,
**[02:03] ---**
but they still share nothing in common.
**[02:06] ---**
Chief Detective Toyama, Osaka Police Headquarters
**[02:06] ---**
There's only one thing: the knife.
**[02:11] ---**
I don't know why, but they
were both stabbed in the heart,
**[02:15] ---**
through their wallets in their jackets.
**[02:19] ---**
Have you told the media about this?
**[02:22] ---**
No, not the wallet part.
**[02:25] ---**
That means the second killing
wasn't some moron's copycat attack.
**[02:33] ---**
Correct, it was definitely
the same person.
**[02:38] ---**
Serial murders...
**[02:40] ---**
If the murders are
at random, it'll cause a panic.
**[02:47] ---**
Toyama... You'd best be extra careful.
**[02:47] ---**
Hattori Heizo Osaka Chief of Police
**[02:52] ---**
Yes, I know.
**[02:56] ---**
"The Naniwa Serial Murder Case."
**[03:02] ---**
That's the Tennoji Zoo!
**[03:05] ---**
That's the Osaka Dome!
**[03:07] ---**
And this is the Tsutenkaku Tower!
**[03:11] ---**
Whadya think? Osaka's nice, huh?!
**[03:14] ---**
Yeah! This is a great view!
**[03:17] ---**
I dunno, it's no
different from the Tokyo Tower...
**[03:21] ---**
Don't be dumb! Don't compare
this with that tasteless red thing!
**[03:25] ---**
The Tsutenkaku and
the new world all around it
**[03:28] ---**
are brimming with the Osakans' humanity!
**[03:32] ---**
It's almost like downtown Tokyo!
**[03:35] ---**
How about some food now?
**[03:37] ---**
Just a little longer!
I'm waiting for someone!
**[03:40] ---**
Fine, guess I'll have a smoke.
**[03:44] ---**
Hey, Hattori.
**[03:47] ---**
Tell me why you called me to Osaka.
**[03:50] ---**
Huh? You're concerned about that?
**[03:53] ---**
You have another real reason, right?
**[03:56] ---**
No, no! There's really no work this time!
**[04:00] ---**
I just thought I'd
show you guys around Osaka!
**[04:04] ---**
There's no telling when you'll die, after all.
**[04:08] ---**
W-What's that mean?
**[04:13] ---**
I had a bad dream...
**[04:15] ---**
Dream?
**[04:16] ---**
Yeah... it happens when we catch a bad guy.
**[04:21] ---**
But he winds up stabbing
and killing you instead!
**[04:26] ---**
Hey, now!
Don't kill people on your own!
**[04:30] ---**
There you have it. So just enjoy Osaka!
**[04:35] ---**
Sorry! Heiji-*kun*!
**[04:37] ---**
Oh! He's finally here!
**[04:40] ---**
Sakata Yusuke (26) Tojiri Police Detective, Section 1
**[04:40] ---**
I'm Sakata of the Osaka Police, Tojiri Station!
**[04:43] ---**
Sorry for being so late!
**[04:45] ---**
Why is a police detective here?
**[04:47] ---**
My old man said that if
Mori-*han*'s coming to Osaka,
**[04:51] ---**
he should have a proper tour guide!
**[04:55] ---**
Huh? Where is my old man?
He said he was going to stop by.
**[05:00] ---**
The chief is busy in a
meeting about the incidents.
**[05:03] ---**
"The incidents"?
**[05:05] ---**
So, did you get the car?
**[05:08] ---**
Of course!
**[05:10] ---**
I did just like you asked and
borrowed the Tojiri station's best one!
**[05:15] ---**
H-Hey, now. Don't tell me this car is...
**[05:19] ---**
Well, let's go!
**[05:23] ---**
Isn't this the best?! Cop cars are great!
**[05:27] ---**
You can pass other
cars even in traffic jams!
**[05:30] ---**
So, where would you like to go, guests?
**[05:33] ---**
Tell me...
**[05:35] ---**
Are you making us tour Osaka in this thing?!
**[05:38] ---**
Huh? You don't like it? It's brand new!
**[05:43] ---**
Oh, I know! Should I turn on the siren?
We can go even faster!
**[05:50] ---**
No, that's not what he means...
**[05:52] ---**
It feels like we're being arrested,
so it's kind of embarrassing.
**[05:57] ---**
Oh, don't worry about that!
You haven't done anything wrong!
**[06:02] ---**
Hold your heads high!
**[06:05] ---**
Whadya think?! This is real *udon*!
**[06:07] ---**
The soup's so clear
you can see the bottom!
**[06:10] ---**
Yeah, you can!
**[06:25] ---**
It's a light flavor, but good!
**[06:28] ---**
Tastes like nothing.
**[06:30] ---**
Oh, Heiji! Who's she?
A new girlfriend?
**[06:35] ---**
Does it seem that way?
**[06:36] ---**
No! I'm just a regular Tokyo--
**[06:44] ---**
What is it?
**[06:45] ---**
I suddenly got a chill...
**[06:48] ---**
So, where to next?
**[06:50] ---**
Hmm, the next thing
Osaka is famous for is...
**[06:55] ---**
Yum!
**[06:57] ---**
This *takoyaki* is great!
**[07:00] ---**
I've never had ones with such big octopus!
**[07:04] ---**
What is it?
**[07:05] ---**
Nothing... it just feels like
someone's been watching me...
**[07:10] ---**
Oh, don't worry about it and eat up!
**[07:15] ---**
I can't take my eyes off you!
**[07:17] ---**
I thought you were
on a diet, Ran-*neechan*?
**[07:21] ---**
*Okonomiyaki*? Why didn't
you say so before the *takoyaki*?
**[07:26] ---**
We already passed a great place I know!
**[07:29] ---**
We're going the wrong way!
We can't get there on Midosuji!
**[07:32] ---**
Osaka is full of one-way roads,
**[07:34] ---**
so you often have to go way out of your way!
**[07:38] ---**
In that case, shall I show
them a nearby place I know?
**[07:42] ---**
It's a good thing this place was nearby!
**[07:45] ---**
I'm gonna call my mom real quick.
**[07:49] ---**
Mister! Don't forget the rice!
**[07:53] ---**
You eat *okonomiyaki* with rice?
**[07:56] ---**
Of course! It's a main dish!
**[08:00] ---**
Rice with the sauce on it is great, too!
**[08:06] ---**
Osaka's neat!
**[08:08] ---**
Yeah!
**[08:11] ---**
Oh! That seat is taken--
**[08:15] ---**
You're Kudo, aren't you?
**[08:19] ---**
Heiji's always talking about you.
**[08:24] ---**
Whoa, now!
**[08:26] ---**
Hattori-*kun* does?!
**[08:28] ---**
Don't play dumb.
I already know everything.
**[08:34] ---**
H-Hold on!
**[08:35] ---**
I know you're the Kudo broad
from Tokyo who's seducing him!
**[08:44] ---**
Umm, I think you have the wrong idea...
**[08:48] ---**
I have just one thing to say to you:
**[08:51] ---**
Heiji and I were once
bound by "chains of iron"!
**[08:56] ---**
If you want to mess with Heiji,
you gotta go through me--!
**[09:00] ---**
Hey, Kazuha.
**[09:03] ---**
What're you doing here?
**[09:08] ---**
You're hilarious!
**[09:10] ---**
The "Kudo" I talked about is a guy! A guy!
**[09:10] ---**
Toyama Kazuha (17) Heiji's childhood friend
**[09:14] ---**
And this girl is Kudo's squeeze.
**[09:19] ---**
Squeeze?
**[09:20] ---**
I-It isn't like that!
**[09:22] ---**
She says she isn't.
**[09:24] ---**
She's just embarrassed.
**[09:27] ---**
Then why didn't you
ask Kudo to come too?
**[09:31] ---**
Don't be stupid!
Kudo's sitting right--!
**[09:34] ---**
H-He couldn't make it!
**[09:39] ---**
Anyway, tell us more
about this "chains of iron" thing!
**[09:44] ---**
When we were kids, we found
my old man's handcuffs in the attic.
**[09:52] ---**
Then we got stuck together when
I pretended to be a policeman!
**[09:57] ---**
It was lame;
we found ourselves in big trouble!
**[10:00] ---**
It was not lame! We had to bathe
and use the bathroom together!
**[10:06] ---**
You moron! Don't tell them that!
**[10:08] ---**
Bathe and use the bathroom?
**[10:11] ---**
Sounds like a smelly relationship.
**[10:14] ---**
To commemorate it, I put a piece
of the chain in here for good luck!
**[10:20] ---**
Gross! Throw that thing away!
**[10:23] ---**
Say! Are you two going out?!
**[10:29] ---**
No, no! Heiji and I are just
childhood friends!
**[10:33] ---**
I'm like his big sister
who's always looking after him!
**[10:36] ---**
Sure you are.
**[10:39] ---**
Her dad's chief detective of the
Osaka police and my dad's friend,
**[10:44] ---**
so we've known each other
since we were kids, that's all.
**[10:48] ---**
A detective runt and the
daughter of a police detective...
**[10:52] ---**
What an ominous couple...
**[10:54] ---**
Eh? How come? What's wrong with that?
**[10:58] ---**
Still, why are you here?
**[11:00] ---**
I was acting as your
big sister and keeping watch
**[11:04] ---**
so the creepy Tokyo girl
won't try and seduce you!
**[11:10] ---**
Keeping watch? From where?
**[11:12] ---**
The Tsutenkaku Tower.
**[11:15] ---**
Now I see! She was
the one I sensed watching me!
**[11:20] ---**
...attitude?! I was worried about you!
**[11:23] ---**
Thanks for the meal!
**[11:24] ---**
I'm stuffed!
**[11:26] ---**
That was delicious!
**[11:28] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting!
You should've joined us!
**[11:33] ---**
No, no, I'm just
here to show you around!
**[11:39] ---**
Where to next?
**[11:41] ---**
I guess only Osaka Castle is left...
**[11:45] ---**
What are you doing in here?
**[11:47] ---**
Oh, come on! Take me with you!
**[11:49] ---**
What a pain...
**[11:56] ---**
Huh?
**[12:34] ---**
What happened to this man?!
**[12:36] ---**
I don't know! He suddenly
fell onto the hood of the car!
**[12:40] ---**
From the roof of this building!
**[12:43] ---**
Someone's up there!
**[12:45] ---**
Sakata-*han*! Contact the police!
**[12:48] ---**
G-Got it!
**[12:49] ---**
H-Hey!
**[12:50] ---**
Heiji!
**[12:51] ---**
Conan-*kun*!
**[13:03] ---**
Alright!
**[13:04] ---**
Now you tell us why you dropped
that body on top of a police car!
**[13:11] ---**
N-No! I'm just a--!
**[13:14] ---**
What?! He was called to the roof?!
**[13:18] ---**
Yeah... someone called this guy
about a strange man on the roof.
**[13:25] ---**
I run a tea shop on
the second floor, you see...
**[13:30] ---**
But what sent the body falling?
**[13:33] ---**
The body was wrapped in rope,
attached to the roof's handrail,
**[13:37] ---**
and covered with a tarp,
while the other end of the rope
**[13:41] ---**
was tied to the door so the rope
would come undone when opened.
**[13:46] ---**
I put his estimated time of
death at about one full day ago.
**[13:50] ---**
So someone murdered him this
time yesterday and left him hanging.
**[13:55] ---**
But why on top of a police car?
**[13:58] ---**
It was probably just coincidence,
**[14:01] ---**
but it could be someone
trying to make an example...
**[14:05] ---**
Example?
**[14:07] ---**
The knife through the wallet and heart...
**[14:11] ---**
This is clearly connected
with those incidents...
**[14:18] ---**
Hey! Lady! Hold up!
**[14:20] ---**
Hey! Wait!
**[14:26] ---**
There she goes!
**[14:28] ---**
It's all right.
I got her license plate number.
**[14:31] ---**
But never mind that.
Tell me about "those incidents," Hattori!
**[14:38] ---**
Tojiri Police Station, Osaka
**[14:38] ---**
Serial murders?!
**[14:42] ---**
And that man who fell was the third one?!
**[14:46] ---**
Yep.
**[14:47] ---**
In each case, they were stabbed
in the chest, through their wallets.
**[14:51] ---**
After they were strangled
to death with something.
**[14:54] ---**
Maybe it was someone
who held a grudge about money?
**[14:58] ---**
No, we can't say that for sure.
**[15:01] ---**
The first victim, Nagao Hidetoshi,
**[15:01] ---**
Nagao Hidetoshi Convenience store owner
**[15:03] ---**
was a convenience store owner.
**[15:05] ---**
The next victim, Nishiguchi Tayo,
**[15:05] ---**
Nishiguchi Tayo Pub mistress
**[15:07] ---**
was the mistress of a small pub.
**[15:10] ---**
And the one who fell was Noyasu Kazuto,
**[15:10] ---**
Noyasu Kazuto Taxi driver
**[15:12] ---**
a taxi driver.
**[15:15] ---**
None of them had enough
money to incur someone's wrath.
**[15:19] ---**
In fact, none of them
are connected in any way.
**[15:23] ---**
There's no connection?
**[15:25] ---**
Nope.
**[15:26] ---**
They were all born, raised,
schooled, and employed in Osaka,
**[15:30] ---**
but all in different places.
**[15:35] ---**
We found it, Heiji-*kun*!
We found a link between the victims!
**[15:39] ---**
Seriously?!
**[15:45] ---**
Goshi-*san*! Any comments?!
**[15:45] ---**
Goshi-*san*!
**[15:49] ---**
Huh? Isn't this from Goshi Sotaro's
corruption case six years ago?
**[15:56] ---**
The case where his secretary
took responsibility for him and quit?
**[16:01] ---**
As I recall,
the secretary's name was Nagao...
**[16:04] ---**
Hey! Is our Nagao--?!
**[16:07] ---**
Yes.
**[16:08] ---**
Nagao Hidetoshi,
the first one who was killed!
**[16:13] ---**
But didn't you already
investigate this? Why now?
**[16:17] ---**
No, take a look at the driver.
**[16:21] ---**
The driver?
**[16:24] ---**
Th-That's Noyasu, the third victim!
**[16:28] ---**
It seems he was Assemblyman
Goshi's driver until four years ago.
**[16:33] ---**
His former secretary and
his former driver...
**[16:36] ---**
Assemblyman Goshi
may be involved in this.
**[16:40] ---**
We thought so too, so one of
my seniors is headed to his place now.
**[16:46] ---**
Still, he's famous for his hatred of police.
**[16:50] ---**
Just going to see him won't help anything.
**[16:53] ---**
Then what do you say
we pay a visit too, Sakata-*chan*?
**[16:57] ---**
Hold on! You should
leave that to the police!
**[17:01] ---**
Don't be stupid.
**[17:02] ---**
I can't just let the guy who screwed
up your Osaka tour get away!
**[17:08] ---**
Head over to my house!
Kazuha can tell you where it is!
**[17:11] ---**
Heiji! Do you have the good luck charm?!
**[17:15] ---**
Yep, sure do. Don't worry.
**[17:18] ---**
Well, later!
**[17:23] ---**
What good luck charm?
**[17:25] ---**
A good luck charm I gave him.
It's always protected his life.
**[17:31] ---**
What nonsense.
**[17:33] ---**
It's true!
**[17:34] ---**
The last time he forgot it,
he got really hurt in a kendo match!
**[17:40] ---**
They're very important charms!
There are only two in the world!
**[17:44] ---**
Two?
**[17:45] ---**
Yeah, remember that story
about us and the handcuffs?
**[17:50] ---**
I secretly put a piece of the
chain in his good luck charm!
**[17:54] ---**
Oh?
**[17:58] ---**
Though it's none of your business!
**[18:01] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[18:04] ---**
Never mind that.
I don't see the runt anywhere...
**[18:07] ---**
Eh?!
**[18:08] ---**
Did he go to the bathroom?
**[18:10] ---**
I guess this means
no more police cars...
**[18:17] ---**
Sorry, Sakata-*chan*.
**[18:18] ---**
You gotta write a letter apologizing
for the crushed car, don't you?
**[18:22] ---**
It's fine. I'm used to it.
**[18:24] ---**
But what's with the gut?
**[18:26] ---**
Oh, this?
**[18:31] ---**
This kid'll be helpful!
**[18:35] ---**
But won't Mori-*han* be worried?!
**[18:38] ---**
It's okay! I'll call him later!
**[18:40] ---**
Oh, that reminds me,
we used the license plate number to get
**[18:44] ---**
the address and phone number
of that suspicious woman you saw.
**[18:48] ---**
Her name is Okazaki Sumie, age 39.
**[18:52] ---**
She divorced last year and lives
alone in the West Side Apartments.
**[18:57] ---**
Want to check her out first?
**[18:59] ---**
Yeah... it seemed
like she knew something.
**[19:04] ---**
Here, I'll call to
see if she's home or not.
**[19:07] ---**
West Side Apartments
**[19:08] ---**
At 1:00 pm today, a body fell near the Shinsai Bridge.
**[19:13] ---**
The deceased was identified
as Noyasu Kazuto-san, age 41.
**[19:19] ---**
Moreover...
**[19:20] ---**
Forgive me... Forgive me...
**[19:30] ---**
Yes?
**[19:30] ---**
Oh, is this Okazaki-*san*'s residence?
**[19:33] ---**
My name is Sakata,
I'm with the Tojiri Police Department.
**[19:37] ---**
O-Officer! Hurry here and
protect me! I'm going to be killed!
**[19:44] ---**
I'll tell you everything!
Just hurry here! Hurry!
**[19:47] ---**
Just calm down! I'll be right there!
**[19:50] ---**
Lock your door and don't let anyone in!
**[19:54] ---**
Oh no! We passed the West Side Apartments!
**[19:58] ---**
What now?! It's a one-way
road and it's a heavy traffic day!
**[20:01] ---**
It'll take forever to turn around!
**[20:03] ---**
It'll be faster on foot! Stop the car!
**[20:05] ---**
H-Heiji-*kun*!
**[20:09] ---**
Watch it!
**[20:10] ---**
Sorry!
**[20:11] ---**
Watch it!
**[20:17] ---**
West Side Apartments
**[20:25] ---**
Hey! Lady! We're with that
cop who called earlier! Open up!
**[20:35] ---**
It's unlocked!
**[20:41] ---**
Hey! Lady!
**[20:45] ---**
Hey!
**[20:50] ---**
Lady! Where are you?!
**[21:00] ---**
This is Sakata.
**[21:02] ---**
Eh?! Okazaki-*san* isn't home?!
**[21:05] ---**
Nope. The place is empty.
**[21:08] ---**
That's crazy! I told her not to leave!
**[21:10] ---**
Did she contact you at all?
**[21:14] ---**
Of course not. I didn't give her my number.
**[21:18] ---**
Oh, right.
**[21:20] ---**
Anyway, hurry here. Something's not right.
**[21:23] ---**
I just got off the one-way road,
so I'll be there in a few minutes.
**[21:31] ---**
It's from downstairs!
**[21:34] ---**
The public restroom!
**[21:36] ---**
D-Don't tell me she--!
**[21:55] ---**
Too late. She's dead.
**[21:58] ---**
But why?! Why did she go outside?!
**[22:02] ---**
And there's a knife
through her wallet and chest...
**[22:06] ---**
Who's doing this?! And why?!
**[22:15] ---**
The victim is Okazaki Sumie-*san*, age 39.
**[22:20] ---**
She was strangled to
death with a rope of some sort.
**[22:23] ---**
She appears to have been
stabbed after being strangled.
**[22:28] ---**
What time did you find the body?
**[22:30] ---**
Three or four minutes
before you arrived.
**[22:33] ---**
This bathroom
cleaner guy found her.
**[22:36] ---**
But why does the killer
stab their wallets every time?
**[22:42] ---**
You told this lady not to go outside,
but it looks like she died here.
**[22:48] ---**
Come to the Shinsai Bridge now
if you want to see some old friends.
**[22:54] ---**
1:08 pm.
**[22:59] ---**
See that? You're the
next to wind up like that.
**[23:04] ---**
1:10 pm.
**[23:07] ---**
There's no question that's the killer!
**[23:11] ---**
In other words,
the lady heard the first message
**[23:15] ---**
and went to the Shinsai Bridge.
**[23:17] ---**
Then, when she came back,
she heard the second message
**[23:20] ---**
and trembled in fear inside.
**[23:25] ---**
But what does "old friends" mean?
**[23:29] ---**
Could it refer to the
people who've been killed so far?
**[23:32] ---**
Detective Sakata.
There's a call from headquarters.
**[23:35] ---**
Oh, thanks.
**[23:36] ---**
Hey, Hattori. These answering
machine messages are strange.
**[23:41] ---**
How so?
**[23:42] ---**
The times and the
contents of the messages.
**[23:45] ---**
There were only two minutes
between the "come" message
**[23:49] ---**
and the "see that" message.
**[23:52] ---**
Does that mean the
killer was watching her?
**[23:57] ---**
Something's odd
about these four murders.
**[24:01] ---**
I get a bad feeling that
the killer is playing with us...
**[24:05] ---**
Bad feeling?
**[24:12] ---**
Kudo!
**[24:15] ---**
What?!
**[24:16] ---**
N-Nothing! Don't sweat it!
**[24:19] ---**
Yikes! I just remembered that
ominous dream from the other day!
**[24:29] ---**
So, Heiji-*kun*. Where to next?
**[24:32] ---**
Shall we visit Goshi-*san*'s office?
**[24:37] ---**
Heiji-*kun*?
**[24:39] ---**
Oh, right.
**[24:41] ---**
These sure are strange cases.
**[24:44] ---**
There are no witnesses and it's
not clear how they're all connected,
**[24:48] ---**
yet we can ID
the victims easily enough.
**[24:50] ---**
Yeah, now that you mention it.
**[24:52] ---**
The victims' names were on the
news right after the first two killings.
**[24:58] ---**
That's only natural.
**[25:00] ---**
All four had their driver's
licenses in their stabbed wallets.
**[25:05] ---**
Driver's licenses? That's it!
**[25:07] ---**
Kadoma Driver's License Testing Ground
**[25:10] ---**
So all four have
clean driving records...
**[25:13] ---**
Yes.
**[25:14] ---**
I thought there might be a car connection.
Guess I was wrong again.
**[25:19] ---**
They also all got their licenses
different years at different places.
**[25:25] ---**
Hey... it says Okazaki learned
to drive in Hyogo and not Osaka.
**[25:30] ---**
So it does.
**[25:31] ---**
Why that far away?
**[25:34] ---**
Oh, that place is famous
for its cheap license school.
**[25:38] ---**
License school?! Does that mean--?!
**[25:42] ---**
...If you want to see some old friends.
**[25:44] ---**
There's her friends!
**[25:47] ---**
Do you have the number
for that place, Mister?
**[25:50] ---**
Yes.
**[25:53] ---**
Okazaki Sumie and Nishiguchi
Tayo shared a room at the school?!
**[25:58] ---**
Seriously?!
**[26:00] ---**
Alright! We're starting
to connect the four victims now!
**[26:04] ---**
But... isn't it strange?
**[26:07] ---**
Okazaki-*san* got
her license that same year,
**[26:10] ---**
but Nishiguchi-*san
*got his three years later.
**[26:15] ---**
Maybe he sucked at driving
and didn't graduate that year?
**[26:20] ---**
That's crazy!
**[26:22] ---**
You're really sure about that?!
**[26:25] ---**
Huh?! What is it?!
**[26:27] ---**
The others were at that
school twenty years ago, too!
**[26:33] ---**
The first victim,
Nagao Hidetoshi-*san*,
**[26:36] ---**
the third victim, Noyasu Kazuto-*san*,
**[26:40] ---**
and Assemblyman Goshi-*san*!
**[26:45] ---**
They were all at the same place!
**[26:49] ---**
What?!
**[26:50] ---**
And that's not all.
**[26:53] ---**
There was also a man
whose name is all too familiar now.
**[26:57] ---**
Familiar?! Who?!
**[27:01] ---**
Numabuchi. Numabuchi Kiichiro.
**[27:05] ---**
Numabuchi Kiichiro? You don't mean--!
**[27:09] ---**
The robber and murderer...
**[27:11] ---**
...who's on the run?!
**[27:15] ---**
Here it comes! The school photo!
**[27:20] ---**
No question about it!
It's Numabuchi!
**[27:24] ---**
The faces and names
of the other five match, too!
**[27:27] ---**
But this is strange!
**[27:28] ---**
August 23, 1978 graduates
**[27:29] ---**
See? It says they all graduated then...
**[27:33] ---**
...but only Okazaki-*san
*went on to get her license.
**[27:36] ---**
Something happened at this
school twenty years ago. Something...
**[27:43] ---**
I see. Thanks.
**[27:46] ---**
None of the current staff know anything
that happened twenty years ago.
**[27:51] ---**
I figured as much.
**[27:53] ---**
But there had to have been some sort of incident
**[27:53] ---**
Prefectural Nakanoshima Library
**[27:57] ---**
involving that training
ground twenty years ago.
**[28:04] ---**
Bingo! This is it!
**[28:07] ---**
Driving Instructor Dies in Accident
Drunk Driving Suspected
**[28:07] ---**
On that day twenty years ago when those six graduated,
**[28:10] ---**
one of the instructors died in a drunk driving accident!
**[28:14] ---**
His name was Inaba Tetsuji.
The strictest instructor at the school...
**[28:18] ---**
Hey, how does this sound to you?
**[28:21] ---**
Numabuchi, broke and in trouble,
decided to use the old incident
**[28:26] ---**
to blackmail the assemblyman
out of money but was refused.
**[28:30] ---**
So he killed off everyone
involved in the incident
**[28:34] ---**
and then repeated his threat.
**[28:36] ---**
That, or Goshi used
Numabuchi to kill off everyone
**[28:39] ---**
to keep the scandal from interfering
with his Diet member campaign.
**[28:45] ---**
Both sound plausible enough.
**[28:48] ---**
When Nagao-*san* and
Noyasu-*san* quit working for him,
**[28:52] ---**
they received a lot of severance pay.
**[28:55] ---**
Mention the instructor's death
and his companions back then,
**[29:01] ---**
and I bet that cop-hater
will start talking!
**[29:05] ---**
Okay! Let's go!
**[29:12] ---**
Conan-*kun*! What are you doing here?!
You suddenly disappeared!
**[29:17] ---**
Oh no! I forgot to call!
**[29:19] ---**
Hey, Hei-*chan*! Long time, no see!
**[29:22] ---**
Otaki-*han* from headquarters?!
Why are you here?!
**[29:26] ---**
Kazuha-*chan* asked me to be a driver.
**[29:26] ---**
Inspector Otaki Osaka Prefectural Police
**[29:29] ---**
Sakata-*han* called us about the glasses boy.
**[29:34] ---**
Now why'd you do that?
**[29:36] ---**
Must be convenient, always having
the cops at your beck and call!
**[29:39] ---**
Who're you to talk?! You were
touring Osaka in a police car!
**[29:43] ---**
Now, now!
**[29:45] ---**
I can drive the boy to
the chief's house if you'd like.
**[29:49] ---**
Shall we go?
**[29:50] ---**
No! I wanna stay with
Heiji-*niichan*!
**[29:53] ---**
Just a minute, Otaki-*han*.
**[29:57] ---**
This is Osaka. Just leave this
to us and go on your way, Kudo!
**[30:04] ---**
But knowing you,
you'll just find a way to butt in again.
**[30:10] ---**
Fine, then. I'll let you hold onto this.
**[30:14] ---**
Your good luck charm?
**[30:15] ---**
In exchange, hold yourself
back as much as you can today.
**[30:19] ---**
When I come home,
I'll tell you all about what happened!
**[30:23] ---**
'Kay?
**[30:26] ---**
Conan-*kun*! Hurry up!
**[30:30] ---**
Don't worry. I won't let
them mess with Osaka anymore!
**[30:35] ---**
I bet my life on it!
**[30:37] ---**
See you later!
**[30:41] ---**
Who's he talking to?
**[30:46] ---**
I'm starving...
**[30:48] ---**
We'll be at the chief's house
in Neyagawa in half an hour...
**[30:53] ---**
Heiji's mom is making
blowfish stew tonight!
**[30:57] ---**
Oh?!
**[30:59] ---**
I can't wait!
**[31:03] ---**
Otaki.
**[31:05] ---**
What?!
**[31:06] ---**
You found the car of
Numabuchi, the fugitive,
**[31:08] ---**
in the Mino mountains?!
**[31:10] ---**
I'll be right there!
**[31:12] ---**
Sorry, Mori-*han*, but you'll have to
wait longer for the blowfish stew.
**[31:18] ---**
I'm taking a side trip!
**[31:25] ---**
Mino Waterfall
**[31:35] ---**
Sorry! I'll have a youngster
come get you in a minute.
**[31:39] ---**
Okay...
**[31:40] ---**
Isn't Numabuchi that
murderer who escaped with a gun?
**[31:45] ---**
Things have gotten really bad.
Right, Conan--?
**[31:49] ---**
Conan-*kun*!
**[31:53] ---**
How's it look?
**[31:54] ---**
Oh, Inspector Otaki!
**[31:55] ---**
We found the car covered
in plants, but Numabuchi is still...
**[32:01] ---**
And that shack?
**[32:03] ---**
It was empty
when I peeked inside.
**[32:07] ---**
Maybe he ditched the car
and ran off somewhere else?
**[32:10] ---**
He's in there.
**[32:12] ---**
L-Little boy!
When did you get here?!
**[32:15] ---**
Have a look here!
**[32:17] ---**
I found these burned
at the bottom of this can.
**[32:23] ---**
See? Convenience store receipts
from five and three days ago,
**[32:27] ---**
and stickers from lots of convenience
store lunches that expire today.
**[32:32] ---**
Not many people would
eat convenience store lunches
**[32:34] ---**
at a place like this every day, right?
**[32:36] ---**
But, boy, if a wanted man
showed up at a convenience store...
**[32:41] ---**
Someone else probably bought it.
**[32:44] ---**
Someone's sheltering him.
**[32:47] ---**
For some reason...
**[32:48] ---**
**[33:14] ---**
Hey! You find Numabuchi?!
**[33:18] ---**
Well?!
**[33:19] ---**
No! There are signs that someone
lived here awhile ago, but...
**[33:28] ---**
There's mud on the windowsill!
**[33:31] ---**
That pillar and those
beams are free of cobwebs...
**[33:35] ---**
I see! He stood
on the windowsill and...
**[33:44] ---**
S-Stop, little boy!
**[33:53] ---**
Oh?! It looks like
this leads to the attic!
**[33:57] ---**
Wait, boy! Leave the rest to us!
**[34:07] ---**
Numabuchi!
**[34:09] ---**
Numabuchi Kiichiro! You're under
arrest for robbery and murder!
**[34:12] ---**
F-Food!
**[34:15] ---**
Hurry, give me food!
**[34:18] ---**
Goshi Sotaro's residence
**[34:19] ---**
What?! Old man Goshi won't come out?!
**[34:23] ---**
No, he's kept us waiting
in here since this evening.
**[34:27] ---**
I'll go see him myself!
**[34:29] ---**
Now, now! Please simmer down
and let my senior save face!
**[34:35] ---**
Sir! We can't keep the police detectives waiting any longer!
**[34:36] ---**
Goshi Sotaro Prefectural Assemblyman
**[34:39] ---**
Forget 'em. They'll give
up and leave eventually.
**[34:43] ---**
Shall I at least tell them about
the phone call with the strange voice?
**[34:49] ---**
N-No! I absolutely can't...
**[34:53] ---**
Let's make a deal in one hour
about the incident twenty years ago.
**[34:58] ---**
Go out the back gate
and wait in the far storehouse.
**[35:04] ---**
We absolutely can't tell them!
**[35:07] ---**
Sheesh! I told you to stop
scampering around, Conan-*kun*!
**[35:12] ---**
All you do is worry me...
**[35:14] ---**
Sorry.
**[35:14] ---**
Come on! Get walking!
**[35:22] ---**
Hey!
**[35:26] ---**
Hey, you alright?
**[35:29] ---**
Hey, you!
**[35:31] ---**
Outta the way!
**[35:42] ---**
It's no use!
**[35:50] ---**
Conan-*kun*!
**[35:52] ---**
Conan-*kun*! Hang in there!
Conan-*kun*!
**[36:02] ---**
It can't be--!
**[36:05] ---**
What is it, Heiji-*kun*?
**[36:07] ---**
Oh, nothing!
**[36:11] ---**
Huh? Where's Sakata-*han*?
**[36:13] ---**
He just left to use the bathroom.
**[36:15] ---**
I should probably go, too.
**[36:20] ---**
Conan-*kun*! Conan-*kun*!
**[36:23] ---**
Someone rush him to the hospital!
**[36:26] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[36:28] ---**
I'm okay... It only pricked me!
**[36:31] ---**
That can't be! The knife went--!
**[36:39] ---**
A good luck charm?
**[36:41] ---**
It must be thanks to the good
luck charm Heiji-*niichan* lent me!
**[36:46] ---**
Heiji's?
**[36:48] ---**
See? The knife got caught in
the chain link, so it couldn't stab me!
**[36:56] ---**
Never do that again!
**[36:58] ---**
Up, you!
**[37:00] ---**
No funny business!
**[37:03] ---**
Why does he have two
handcuffs on his left hand?
**[37:06] ---**
Oh, this? I'm not sure why,
but he was handcuffed to a pillar.
**[37:12] ---**
We had to get him free, so we cut
the chain and put our cuffs on him.
**[37:18] ---**
He was handcuffed?!
**[37:20] ---**
Looks like you were right
about someone bringing him food, kid.
**[37:27] ---**
Wait a minute!
**[37:29] ---**
It couldn't be! It couldn't be!
**[37:32] ---**
It couldn't be!
**[37:36] ---**
Oh no!
**[37:54] ---**
Wait all you want,
old man Goshi won't come.
**[37:58] ---**
Sakata-*han*. You're the
serial murderer, aren't you?!
**[38:05] ---**
P-Please don't joke like that!
**[38:08] ---**
I was just admiring how
unusual this storehouse is!
**[38:14] ---**
First, when the
body fell onto the cop car...
**[38:17] ---**
You craftily took us there.
**[38:21] ---**
Mere moments before we exited
the restaurant, you made a call
**[38:26] ---**
and put the special set-up in action.
**[38:33] ---**
Then, while I was on the roof,
you called Okazaki-*san* to the scene,
**[38:39] ---**
left a threatening call on her
machine when you knew she was gone,
**[38:44] ---**
and led her to
hole up in her apartment.
**[38:49] ---**
After you had me witness her
and made an impression on her,
**[38:54] ---**
you brought up the topic and
called her after passing her apartment.
**[39:00] ---**
Then, after I heard her
frightened voice and leapt from the car,
**[39:06] ---**
you parked the car in an alley
and called her again while chasing me.
**[39:13] ---**
I'm the detective who just called!
You're in danger there!
**[39:17] ---**
Please wait in the nearby
public restroom! Got it?!
**[39:21] ---**
And then, while we were in her room,
you killed her in the restroom!
**[39:33] ---**
You were able to arrive by
car immediately after she was found
**[39:40] ---**
because you had rented
two cars of the exact same model!
**[39:45] ---**
After you killed her, you got in
the other rental car that was nearby
**[39:51] ---**
to make it look like you'd
just gotten there after some time.
**[39:58] ---**
You drove for us and got us
closer to the heart of the case
**[40:04] ---**
to get everyone here so you
could kill old man Goshi!
**[40:08] ---**
He's a prefectural assemblyman.
He'd stand out if he left his home.
**[40:11] ---**
And he could even
take bodyguards with him.
**[40:14] ---**
But if you came here with us,
you could wander around freely.
**[40:22] ---**
When did you realize it, Heiji-*kun*?
**[40:25] ---**
The rental cars' side-view
mirrors were the first thing.
**[40:28] ---**
It was at a different
angle the second time.
**[40:33] ---**
And then I noticed the instructor
in the picture from *twenty* years ago
**[40:39] ---**
looked a lot like you.
**[40:42] ---**
It was your habit in the
car that finally convinced me.
**[40:45] ---**
You fiddled with the rear-view mirror
**[40:47] ---**
the same way Noyasu-*san
*and Okazaki-*san* did!
**[40:52] ---**
That's proof you'd all been
involved with the same person.
**[40:56] ---**
I don't know what
happened twenty years ago,
**[40:59] ---**
but shouldn't you turn
yourself in, Sakata-*han*?
**[41:04] ---**
I'm sorry, Heiji-*kun*.
**[41:08] ---**
It's all over at this point...
**[41:11] ---**
You idiot!
**[41:14] ---**
Sakata is the killer?!
**[41:16] ---**
That's right! Numabuchi
told us everything!
**[41:20] ---**
After he committed the murders,
he planned to frame Numabuchi
**[41:24] ---**
and then kill him in a fake suicide!
**[41:28] ---**
Where's Sakata?!
**[41:29] ---**
H-He's been gone awhile--
**[41:39] ---**
There, it's empty!
Now you can't do anything stupid!
**[41:48] ---**
A bullet hit your leg?!
**[41:50] ---**
N-Never mind me,
Heiji-*kun*... Hurry and escape!
**[41:55] ---**
No can do... Looks like I got hit, too...
**[42:01] ---**
He was my father... The instructor
who died *twenty* years ago.
**[42:07] ---**
He was a strict driver
**[42:09] ---**
and was always telling my
mother to check the rear-view mirror.
**[42:16] ---**
That's probably where I got it from.
**[42:18] ---**
Do you think someone
like that would drive drunk?!
**[42:22] ---**
And then I became a police detective...
**[42:26] ---**
...to expose the
truth of my father's death!
**[42:30] ---**
I solved the mystery when I found
Numabuchi in a mountain shack.
**[42:35] ---**
I look like my father, so the instant
he saw me, he grew frightened
**[42:40] ---**
and blurted everything out.
**[42:43] ---**
F-Forgive me, Instructor Inaba!
It was just a prank!
**[42:47] ---**
We just wanted to see your scared face
**[42:50] ---**
when we forced you to drink
and drive a car without brake fluid!
**[42:56] ---**
And then you went after all
six people who took part in it?
**[43:01] ---**
The statute of limitations
for murder is fifteen years.
**[43:05] ---**
So I decided that if the
law can't punish them, I would!
**[43:15] ---**
I'm sorry I dragged you into this, Heiji-*kun*.
**[43:19] ---**
D-Don't talk like that!
**[43:24] ---**
You're a cop! You're the only
ones in Japan allowed to carry guns!
**[43:31] ---**
Why don't you feel any pride for that?!
**[43:35] ---**
Get up, Sakata!
**[43:37] ---**
You put the cherry blossom
emblem on your notebook to shame!
**[43:57] ---**
O-Otaki-*san*...
**[43:59] ---**
How's Heiji-*kun*?!
**[44:00] ---**
They took him away in
another ambulance just now.
**[44:04] ---**
He's really something. He carried
you out of that fire, on his back.
**[44:10] ---**
Yes...
**[44:11] ---**
Is this the homicidal
maniac who tried to kill me?!
**[44:15] ---**
Why, you--!
**[44:18] ---**
He is still my subordinate. Hands off.
**[44:23] ---**
O-Old man Toyama!
**[44:29] ---**
I'll pay a visit later, Goshi-*san*.
**[44:32] ---**
When I do, we can talk about
what happened twenty years ago.
**[46:22] ---**
Heiji, hang in there.
**[46:24] ---**
Heiji.
**[46:26] ---**
How bad is Hattori-*kun*'s injury?
**[46:29] ---**
We don't know yet.
**[46:30] ---**
In any case, we have to get the bullet out soon.
**[46:33] ---**
The bullet?
**[46:35] ---**
Did Sakata-*san* shoot you?
**[46:37] ---**
He didn't shoot me.
**[46:39] ---**
I happened to get hit while stopping him from killing himself.
**[46:43] ---**
Why would you do something so dangerous?
**[46:47] ---**
Because some idiot told me
**[46:49] ---**
after cornering the culprit with your detective work,
**[46:52] ---**
[noise, not words]
**[46:52] ---**
you can't let them die.
**[46:55] ---**
Hattori...
**[46:59] ---**
Dang, I'm starting to feel sleepy.
**[47:04] ---**
Let me rest a minute.
**[47:07] ---**
Don't! You can't sleep, Heiji!
**[47:10] ---**
Heiji?
**[47:22] ---**
No...
**[47:24] ---**
Heiji!
**[47:29] ---**
Shut up!
**[47:31] ---**
Didn't you hear me say I wanted to get some rest?
**[47:34] ---**
Ow, ow, ow...
**[47:35] ---**
If you're got this much energy, you should be fine.
**[47:42] ---**
I didn't get much sleep because I've been coming up with a good tour of Osaka last night.
**[47:46] ---**
Don't go screaming creepy nonsense into my ear,
**[47:49] ---**
idiot.
**[47:53] ---**
Sorry my voice is so creepy.
**[48:00] ---**
What are you doing, moron?
**[48:02] ---**
You're the moron!
**[48:04] ---**
The way you fell asleep was confusing.
**[48:06] ---**
Come on, you two.
**[48:08] ---**
I'm injured over here!
**[48:10] ---**
You seem fine to me!
**[48:12] ---**
This guy won't be dying anytime soon.
**[48:29] ---**
Don't!
**[48:29] ---**
Don't do it, Conan-*kun*!
**[48:30] ---**
Huh?
**[48:31] ---**
But why?
**[48:35] ---**
This was definitely a murder.
**[48:39] ---**
Someone planned it from the start.
**[48:42] ---**
On the next Conan:
**[48:44] ---**
The Kamen Yaiba Murder Case.
**[48:48] ---**
Next Conan's hint:
**[48:51] ---**
Model gun.
**[48:53] ---**
Next episode airs on October 12th.
Read a copy of *Shonen Sunday*...
**[48:56] ---**
While you wait.
