[00:01] ---
    Encounters are mysterious!
    But the world is even more so!
[00:04] ---
    I'm so glad I'm with you!
[00:06] ---
    Today is a sad sisterly bond!
[00:08] ---
    Have you solved
    the sealed room 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!
[01:51] ---
    On our way to Okino Yoko's concert,
    the old guy lost his ticket.
[01:56] ---
    But he just happened
    to meet Aoshima Masayo,
[01:59] ---
    who promised to give him a ticket
    if he picked up her younger sister.
[02:06] ---
    However, her sister, Aoshima Mina,
[02:09] ---
    was found dead inside a
    completely-sealed bathroom!
[02:14] ---
    Not only were the door and
    window taped from the inside,
[02:19] ---
    but the word "goodbye" was
    spelled out in tape on the door!
[02:24] ---
    Also, because only the sister's
    fingerprints were found on the tape,
[02:30] ---
    the old guy and Inspector
    Megure deemed it a suicide, but...
[02:35] ---
    No! This wasn't a suicide!
[02:38] ---
    Mina-san's killer was Masayo-san!
[02:44] ---
    "The Sealed Bathroom Murder Case (Part 2)."
[02:51] ---
    Inspector Megure!
[02:53] ---
    Oh! Takagi-kun!
[02:55] ---
    So, did you check the
    convenience store angle?
[02:58] ---
    Yes.
[02:59] ---
    At around 7:00 last night,
[03:01] ---
    she bought two bathroom detergents,
    some tape, and two cans of beer.
[03:06] ---
    Cans of beer?
[03:08] ---
    There were two empty cans in the kitchen,
    along with sleeping pills.
[03:13] ---
    She probably couldn't work
    up the nerve to kill herself sober.
[03:17] ---
    So, how did Mina-*san
    *seem when she bought it?
[03:20] ---
    Right... apparently, she seemed
    no different than usual. It's just...
[03:24] ---
    It's just what?
[03:26] ---
    Oh, no, it's nothing really.
[03:29] ---
    So it was clearly a suicide!
    Suicide, suicide!
[03:35] ---
    Detective!
[03:37] ---
    It's just what?
[03:39] ---
    Well, you see, the shop
    owner said something strange.
[03:44] ---
    As she was checking out, Mina-san...
[03:46] ---
    By the way, Inspector. What time is it?
[03:49] ---
    Oh, the time?
[03:52] ---
    See? Isn't that strange?
[03:55] ---
    But the room was sealed,
    and it seems clear it was a suicide...
[03:59] ---
    You should tell the inspector!
    I bet it'll prove it wasn't... a suicide...
[04:10] ---
    Hey! What's that?!
[04:14] ---
    The peephole?
[04:15] ---
    The black dirt above it!
[04:22] ---
    Th-This is a bloodstain!
[04:24] ---
    Bloodstain?!
[04:25] ---
    Y-Yes...
[04:29] ---
    But what's this doing here?
[04:32] ---
    Mina!
[04:35] ---
    K-Kenji!
[04:37] ---
    Is it... Is it true
    that Mina killed herself?!
[04:41] ---
    Yes...
[04:42] ---
    But, Kenji! How did you know?!
[04:47] ---
    We informed him.
[04:50] ---
    He'd left a message on her machine
    at her estimated time of death.
[04:57] ---
    So I looked through her
    address book and called him here.
[05:02] ---
    Why? Why would Mina commit suicide?!
[05:06] ---
    If I'd known this would happen,
[05:08] ---
    I would've broken
    through a window then!
[05:11] ---
    "Then"?!
[05:13] ---
    Did you come here last night?!
[05:16] ---
    Yes! After I left my message!
[05:19] ---
    S-Seriously?!
[05:21] ---
    Yeah! I did!
[05:23] ---
    But no one answered the doorbell,
[05:27] ---
    and I waited in front of the door awhile,
    but she never came home.
[05:31] ---
    I figured she already went
    to bed and left!
[05:35] ---
    And that's how I caught this cold!
[05:38] ---
    Wait a minute! Does that mean...
[05:42] ---
    ...that bloodstain was...
[05:44] ---
    But isn't it strange to visit her
    after getting the answering machine?
[05:49] ---
    We had planned to have dinner together...
[05:53] ---
    And Mina always had
    the answering machine on.
[05:55] ---
    Getting the machine
    didn't mean she wasn't home...
[06:01] ---
    But never mind that, Detective!
    Take me to Mina!
[06:04] ---
    A-Alright.
[06:05] ---
    I see! So that's how it was!
[06:08] ---
    The trick to the room sealed with tape!
[06:11] ---
    The intriguing bloodstain on the door!
[06:14] ---
    And the strange
    feeling that was bugging me!
[06:18] ---
    I've figured it all
    out very clearly now!
[06:22] ---
    The killer was, without question...
[06:25] ---
    Without question,
    it was her, Masayo-san!
[06:29] ---
    She brought us here to
    complete this sealed room murder!
[06:36] ---
    Unaware she's been holding
    definitive proof the whole time!
[06:41] ---
    Suicide, suicide! It was clearly
    a suicide, Inspector!
[06:47] ---
    The tape on the inside of
    the door and window
[06:51] ---
    completely sealed this room off.
[06:56] ---
    And judging from the dying
    words written in tape on that door
[07:00] ---
    and the fact only Mina-san's
    fingerprints are on the tape...
[07:04] ---
    I can only think that she slit
    her wrist to commit suicide in here.
[07:10] ---
    Mori-san. Umm...
[07:13] ---
    Oh, Masayo-san.
[07:15] ---
    Uhh, here...
[07:17] ---
    The ticket to tonight's
    concert I promised you...
[07:21] ---
    I'm really sorry to go at a time like this!
[07:27] ---
    Well, Inspector! I should be going!
[07:29] ---
    Wait! Mori-kun!
    We haven't questioned you yet!
[07:33] ---
    It's okay, it's okay! I promise to
    drop by the station after the concert!
[07:45] ---
    M-Mori-kun!
[07:48] ---
    Hey...
[07:56] ---
    Mister!
[07:57] ---
    Hey! Mori-kun!
[07:59] ---
    Don't tell me it's happening again?!
[08:02] ---
    It? What?
[08:03] ---
    It just struck me. I've figured it all out.
[08:08] ---
    I've figured out how the killer
    managed to seal this bathroom!
[08:21] ---
    Killer? You were
    just saying it was a suicide!
[08:25] ---
    Yes, please forget everything
    I said earlier. I was only joking.
[08:34] ---
    Sheesh.
[08:35] ---
    Mina-san didn't commit suicide.
[08:39] ---
    She was murdered.
[08:43] ---
    By you, Masayo-san! Her older sister!
[08:51] ---
    Masayo-san?!
[08:53] ---
    H-Hey, now! Is it true, Masayo?!
[08:58] ---
    Don't be silly! You know
    I'd never kill my little sister!
[09:04] ---
    Besides, you should
    know more than anyone here
[09:08] ---
    that the bathroom was sealed
    off and we had to bust the door open!
[09:12] ---
    She's right, Mori-kun.
[09:14] ---
    If you claim Masayo-san killed her,
    then would you mind telling us
[09:19] ---
    how she miraculously managed
    to leave a completely sealed room?!
[09:23] ---
    Miraculously?
[09:26] ---
    It's nothing that special at all.
[09:30] ---
    The method is so extremely
    simple that anyone can do it.
[09:34] ---
    First, Inspector. Please
    close the bathroom door for now.
[09:42] ---
    Like that?
[09:44] ---
    How does the door look to you?
[09:47] ---
    H-How?
[09:54] ---
    H-Hey! You don't mean--?!
[09:56] ---
    That's right.
[09:57] ---
    The tape on the inside is
    placed on the glass in such a way
[10:00] ---
    to make it appear to
    be sealed from the inside.
[10:07] ---
    Masayo-san used this
    illusion to her advantage.
[10:12] ---
    Just because your
    answering machine is on
[10:14] ---
    doesn't mean you aren't home.
[10:16] ---
    It's the same as that.
[10:18] ---
    Then this door... was unsealed
    from the very start?
[10:24] ---
    Yes.
[10:25] ---
    Masayo-san most likely knocked
    her sister out with sleeping pills,
[10:30] ---
    carried her in here,
    and taped up the window and door.
[10:37] ---
    Then, after cutting her wrist...
[10:41] ---
    ...she forcefully
    opened the sealed door...
[10:46] ---
    ...went out, and closed the door again.
[10:50] ---
    The inside of the door is a blind spot!
[10:53] ---
    If the tape had been undone beforehand,
[10:57] ---
    there'd be no way to tell when
    it happened once you went inside.
[11:03] ---
    B-But you said you had
    a hard time getting inside!
[11:07] ---
    Yes, I was completely
    fooled by Masayo-san's acting.
[11:14] ---
    At that time...
[11:16] ---
    Ready, go!
[11:18] ---
    ...it was Masayo-san whose
    hand was on the knob.
[11:22] ---
    Turning the knob at just the right time,
[11:25] ---
    she made it look like we
    had just forced the door open
[11:29] ---
    and planted the idea in our minds
    that this room had been sealed off.
[11:37] ---
    Of course, she needed someone
    who'd fall for this trick for it to work.
[11:43] ---
    That's why she brought us here.
    To act as a stand-in for Kenji-san.
[11:52] ---
    B-But, Mori-kun!
[11:55] ---
    Only her sister's fingerprints
    were on these pieces of tape!
[12:00] ---
    Plus, the end of each strip has prints
[12:04] ---
    from both index fingers and thumbs!
[12:07] ---
    How did that happen?!
[12:09] ---
    Packing.
[12:11] ---
    P-Packing?
[12:13] ---
    Before killing her sister,
    Masayo-san had her help pack
[12:18] ---
    by tearing strips of
    tape off and lining them up.
[12:22] ---
    She then used that tape to
    seal the bathroom window and door
[12:28] ---
    and write out, "Goodbye."
[12:31] ---
    Of course, she wore gloves
    to keep her own fingerprints off.
[12:36] ---
    As proof, there are cardboard boxes
    that had once been put together
[12:40] ---
    and tape residue along the table
    that the strips had been affixed to.
[12:43] ---
    The examiner already
    knows about this, though.
[12:49] ---
    Incidentally, Masayo-san.
    It was also you who sent your sister
[12:53] ---
    to buy the necessary tape
    and two bathroom detergents.
[13:00] ---
    You first planned to seal the room
[13:02] ---
    and kill your sister by mixing
    the two detergents together.
[13:07] ---
    But she had bought the same types,
    which wouldn't produce a gas.
[13:12] ---
    Having realized this
    after sealing the room,
[13:16] ---
    you quickly chose to cut her
    wrist so she'd die of blood loss instead.
[13:22] ---
    Or something along
    these lines, anyway, Masayo-san.
[13:32] ---
    M-Masayo?!
[13:35] ---
    Yes... if it's just as you say,
    I could have done it,
[13:40] ---
    and I am most suspect, being a
    former resident as well as her sister.
[13:46] ---
    But did you see me seal the room with tape?
[13:52] ---
    Did you see me cut my sister's wrist?
[13:57] ---
    You can quibble all you want,
    but fantasy is still just fantasy.
[14:01] ---
    You have no proof at all.
[14:03] ---
    After all, it's possible the room
    really was sealed shut with tape.
[14:09] ---
    Isn't that right, Inspector?
[14:11] ---
    H-Hey! What now, Mori-kun?!
[14:15] ---
    She's correct.
[14:17] ---
    D-Dad!
[14:19] ---
    I have no clear
    proof whatsoever of this trick.
[14:24] ---
    Mori!
[14:25] ---
    But...
[14:27] ---
    ...there are signs
    that you killed your sister!
[14:34] ---
    Definitive evidence
    that can't be explained away!
[14:38] ---
    Wh-What, now?!
[14:40] ---
    Kenji-san. You said
    you came here last night.
[14:45] ---
    Y-Yes.
[14:46] ---
    How long did you ring
    the doorbell, would you say?
[14:50] ---
    I rang it a lot.
[14:52] ---
    She was late for our date,
    so I thought she might be sulking inside.
[14:59] ---
    I see. It's just as I thought.
[15:02] ---
    Wh-What is? What's "just as
    you thought"? Just come out with it!
[15:08] ---
    Masayo-san. You were still
    at home at that time, weren't you?
[15:14] ---
    And you checked on the annoying
    visitor through the peephole...
[15:22] ---
    ...with your sister's blood still on you!
[15:27] ---
    Please check the front door.
[15:30] ---
    You'll find a bloodstain from then still there.
[15:33] ---
    Right, Detective Takagi?
[15:36] ---
    Yes.
[15:38] ---
    But... But so what?!
    My sister could've left that blood there!
[15:46] ---
    Using something that vague as proof...
[15:51] ---
    And you call yourself a great detect--?
[16:05] ---
    Yes... it's still there...
[16:11] ---
    ...a bloodstain that perfectly
    matches the one on the front door.
[16:18] ---
    Masayo-san. It's right there on
    the black bandana around your head!
[16:26] ---
    Now, would you mind
    explaining, Masayo-san,
[16:31] ---
    why your sister's
    blood is on that bandana
[16:35] ---
    that came with
    a CD released yesterday?
[16:39] ---
    B-But, Mori-kun!
[16:41] ---
    How do you know she had the
    bandana on at the time of the crime?!
[16:49] ---
    The logo.
[16:52] ---
    The logo on the bandana.
[16:54] ---
    The real logo has a dash over
    the first "o" to lengthen the vowel.
[17:03] ---
    The fact it's missing means
    something is covering it up.
[17:08] ---
    My sister's blood must've
    landed there and covered it up.
[17:16] ---
    But how did you know, Mori-san?
[17:20] ---
    You don't own a
    bandana of your own, right?
[17:23] ---
    No... something always seemed off,
    but I couldn't put my finger on it.
[17:31] ---
    Until I saw the logo on the key
    holder and the blood stain on the door
[17:38] ---
    and learned that Kenji-*san
    *had rung the doorbell last night.
[17:44] ---
    I see.
[17:46] ---
    So this key holder I showed off
    to you wound up being my downfall.
[17:53] ---
    Then you admit to the crime?
[17:57] ---
    Yes, take me down
    to the station or wherever.
[18:01] ---
    B-But why would you kill Mina?!
    You were such close sisters!
[18:09] ---
    I guess we were too close.
[18:14] ---
    My sister Mina was always
    following in my footsteps.
[18:18] ---
    She'd like the same idols I did,
    buy the same bags and clothes I did,
[18:24] ---
    she'd even copy the
    furniture and dishes I had!
[18:28] ---
    At first, I thought it was cute.
    She was my little sister.
[18:32] ---
    But, one day, after it
    started to get on my nerves,
[18:37] ---
    she smiled with an innocent
    look on her face and told me...
[18:41] ---
    I'm sorry, Sis!
[18:43] ---
    I fell in love with the same person
    you like and confessed to him!
[18:48] ---
    Wait! Does that mean--?!
[18:50] ---
    Yes, that's right. It was you,
    after we had gone out for five years!
[18:57] ---
    So we wound up competing for you,
[19:00] ---
    and in the end,
    she and you got engaged
[19:04] ---
    and I had no choice but to move out.
[19:10] ---
    I wanted to get rid of the little
    devil who stole everything from me!
[19:16] ---
    I wanted her out of my sight!
[19:19] ---
    Y-You have it wrong, Masayo!
[19:21] ---
    I was the one who
    insisted on getting married!
[19:26] ---
    She kept turning me down, of course!
[19:29] ---
    She said she wanted to focus
    on patching things up with her sister.
[19:32] ---
    Y-You're lying! She said she
    kept insisting on getting married!
[19:37] ---
    That was the condition she gave
    when she accepted my proposal.
[19:43] ---
    She didn't want you to
    know I chose her over you,
[19:48] ---
    because you have more
    pride than most people!
[19:54] ---
    Stop with this nonsense! She was
    too selfish to ever think about me...
[20:00] ---
    There's no way to know
    your sister's true feelings now,
[20:06] ---
    but it's clear she
    really cared about you.
[20:13] ---
    Wh-What would... What would you know?!
[20:19] ---
    The convenience store owner said this...
[20:23] ---
    While he rang up her items,
[20:26] ---
    your sister went to
    get a different detergent.
[20:31] ---
    To get a kind that wouldn't
    accidentally produce chlorine gas
[20:35] ---
    if you mixed it with the other one.
[20:38] ---
    To protect your life.
[20:42] ---
    Th-That can't be...
[20:46] ---
    Th-That can't be true...
[20:50] ---
    Mina!
[20:53] ---
    Hey! Hey! Mina!
[20:57] ---
    Tell me it's not true!
[20:59] ---
    Mina! Mina!
[21:02] ---
    Mina! Talk to me, Mina!
[21:06] ---
    Mina!
[21:11] ---
    Mina!
[21:17] ---
    Kindness brought forth hate
    and transformed into murderous intent...
[21:24] ---
    Amid the echoes of
    the sinner's regretful cries,
[21:28] ---
    twin cups and toothbrushes sat
    quietly by each other at the mirror.
[21:35] ---
    As if they had forgotten
    the happy memories
[21:39] ---
    of when they had once been used.
[23:12] ---
    Encore! Encore!
[23:15] ---
    Encore! Encore! Encore!
[23:19] ---
    Yoko-chan!
[23:22] ---
    Oh, my gorgeous Yoko-chan!
[23:26] ---
    Mori-san!
[23:28] ---
    You really came!
[23:30] ---
    But of course!
[23:32] ---
    I'm so happy!
[23:36] ---
    Don't, Yoko-chan!
[23:41] ---
    You shouldn't act that
    happy in front of your fans!
[23:44] ---
    I dunno why, but he's
    smiling while he's sleeping.
[23:49] ---
    He must be having a dream
    where he made it to the concert.
[23:52] ---
    Really, you shouldn't!
[23:57] ---
    Yoko-chan!
[24:02] ---
    Newscaster Aki-san is missing?!
    Was she threatened?!
[24:06] ---
    No, she didn't seem afraid at all then!
[24:12] ---
    If that call had been
    a trap to lure her somewhere--!
[24:21] ---
    End of the line!
[24:26] ---
    On the next Conan--
[24:27] ---
    "The Weather Lady Abduction Case."
[24:47] ---
    Next Conan's hint:
[24:49] ---
    Pager.
[24:51] ---
    Next episode is about a pretty weather girl.
[24:53] ---
    Watch me go wild.
[24:55] ---
    Whoa there.
[24:56] ---
