**[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 weather lady!
Pager logic will clear the heart!
**[00:10] ---**
He sees the single
truth for what it is,
**[00:11] ---**
and looks like a kid
but has the mind of an adult!
**[00:13] ---**
His name? Detective Conan!
**[01:51] ---**
"The Weather Lady Abduction Case."
**[02:03] ---**
Towels, towels!
**[02:05] ---**
A little more and we'd
be super-sopping wet...
**[02:09] ---**
The weather lady was right!
Thunderstorms this afternoon!
**[02:12] ---**
Huh? Where's Mr. Mori?
**[02:14] ---**
He's on a work trip.
**[02:18] ---**
Huh? There's a message on here.
**[02:21] ---**
Hey, now. Don't go touching it.
**[02:25] ---**
You have one message.
**[02:27] ---**
Geez.
**[02:28] ---**
Hello, this is
Asano Aki from Nichiuri TV.
**[02:33] ---**
I'm calling because I need to
speak with you about something urgent.
**[02:37] ---**
You appear to be out,
so I'll call again later.
**[02:41] ---**
Who's Asano Aki?
**[02:43] ---**
The weather lady! You know,
she does the weather on Nichiuri TV!
**[02:48] ---**
Yeah! She's on "News City" too!
**[02:51] ---**
She's super cool! I'm a big fan of hers!
**[02:56] ---**
But what could she urgently
need to talk to him about?
**[03:00] ---**
Alright! Let's talk with her instead,
as the Junior Detective League!
**[03:06] ---**
Yeah!
**[03:08] ---**
Hey, now...
**[03:10] ---**
Nichiuri TV
**[03:11] ---**
Oh?
**[03:12] ---**
Asano Aki (27) Weather lady and newscaster
**[03:13] ---**
So you came all the way here in Mori-*san*'s place?
**[03:17] ---**
Yes! If you need help, leave it
to us, the Junior Detective League!
**[03:23] ---**
Oh, are you
greeting children today?
**[03:26] ---**
Tsukumo-*san*...
**[03:29] ---**
Having to deal with kids just to gain popularity...
**[03:29] ---**
Tsukumo Kazumi (31) Newscaster
**[03:34] ---**
Big-name newscasters sure have it tough!
**[03:36] ---**
Yikes, what gaudy makeup.
**[03:39] ---**
What's with that fingernail?
**[03:41] ---**
That's not what I'm doing.
**[03:43] ---**
Behave yourselves, kiddies.
Don't get in the way of her work.
**[03:54] ---**
What an unpleasant person!
**[03:56] ---**
Isn't she the person who
did the news before you did?
**[04:00] ---**
That's right. We switched
places about half a year ago.
**[04:04] ---**
Was she what you wanted
to talk to Mr. Mori about?
**[04:09] ---**
No... A-Actually, uhh...
**[04:13] ---**
I was wondering if Detective
Mori-*san* would be on News City!
**[04:17] ---**
Aww, what a downer.
**[04:21] ---**
What a relief it wasn't a case...
**[04:24] ---**
What's that sound?
**[04:25] ---**
What is that?
**[04:27] ---**
It's a pager.
**[04:29] ---**
Ran-*neechan* told me to take it
because I always suddenly disappear.
**[04:34] ---**
Oh! You're so lucky!
**[04:35] ---**
You had a cell phone, Mitsuhiko!
**[04:38] ---**
It was only a receiver!
**[04:40] ---**
But it broke, right?
**[04:42] ---**
Yes, for the sake of justice...
**[04:44] ---**
Oh? Really?
**[04:46] ---**
Oh, this is the detective agency's number,
so it must be Ran-*neechan*!
**[04:51] ---**
Oh, I know! Could you give
me your pager's number?
**[04:55] ---**
I can contact you when I need
the Junior Detective League's help!
**[04:59] ---**
Awesome! Hey, Conan!
**[05:01] ---**
Sure! It's written right here!
**[05:05] ---**
Thanks!
**[05:07] ---**
Let's see... Now to save
"Junior Detective League" to my phone...
**[05:13] ---**
There we go! All done!
**[05:17] ---**
Oh! This only shows numbers, huh?
I used to have one, too!
**[05:22] ---**
My friends and I often used
numbers to write messages for fun!
**[05:26] ---**
Messages?
**[05:28] ---**
Even if it can only display numbers,
**[05:29] ---**
you can use numbers that look
and sound like letters to write things!
**[05:35] ---**
For example, "428" could be read "Shibuya"!
**[05:40] ---**
4, 2, 8... Shi-bu-ya...
**[05:44] ---**
Shibuya! (a city in Tokyo) Neat!
**[05:46] ---**
Say, since you're here, how about
a tour of the News City studio?
**[05:51] ---**
Yes!
**[05:51] ---**
Hurray!
**[05:54] ---**
Oh, just a minute.
**[05:56] ---**
Hello, this is Asano.
**[06:00] ---**
Yes. Yes. I will. Yes.
Okay. I'll be right there.
**[06:07] ---**
I'm sorry. I have work
to do, so I can't go.
**[06:13] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
**[06:17] ---**
Oh, Kobayashi-*san*!
**[06:18] ---**
Yes? What can I do?
**[06:20] ---**
I'm sorry to ask, but could
you show them to Studio A?
**[06:23] ---**
Some work just came up, so...
**[06:25] ---**
Sure, it's no problem!
**[06:27] ---**
Oh, and could you
get them some passes?
**[06:29] ---**
Sure.
**[06:30] ---**
Well, shall we go?
**[06:32] ---**
Hurray!
**[06:35] ---**
I'm hungry...
**[06:37] ---**
How long is she going to make us wait?
**[06:39] ---**
Sorry to suddenly
ask you to stand in like this!
**[06:42] ---**
That's fine, but what's this
about Aki-*san* being threatened?
**[06:45] ---**
Threatened?!
**[06:46] ---**
Who are these kids?!
They're distracting! Get rid of them!
**[06:50] ---**
U-Understood!
**[06:52] ---**
Running off because of a threat?!
Aki-*san* is a failure as a journalist!
**[06:58] ---**
We're beginning rehearsal!
**[07:03] ---**
Sorry, Kazumi-*san* hates children.
**[07:07] ---**
Say, she said Aki-*san* was threatened.
**[07:11] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:11] ---**
We came to see Aki-*san
*in Detective Mori's place!
**[07:15] ---**
Oh, the famous detective?!
**[07:17] ---**
I see. Well, just between us,
**[07:21] ---**
Aki-*san*'s been getting
harassing letters and phone calls
**[07:24] ---**
ever since she started a story
about a certain politician's corruption.
**[07:28] ---**
She got a letter this
morning threatening to kill her
**[07:31] ---**
if she appeared on today's News City.
**[07:34] ---**
Was this threat what
she really wanted to discuss?
**[07:39] ---**
You can see the News City
broadcast on that TV.
**[07:42] ---**
Well, I have work to do, so I'll see you later.
**[07:48] ---**
Hey, do you think the
phone call Aki-*san* got earlier
**[07:52] ---**
was a threatening phone call?!
**[07:54] ---**
Yes, and then that scared her...
**[07:58] ---**
No! Aki-*san* isn't a weakling like that!
**[08:01] ---**
You agree with me, right, Conan-*kun*?!
**[08:05] ---**
Yeah...
**[08:06] ---**
When she was on the phone then,
she didn't seem afraid at all.
**[08:12] ---**
In fact, she sounded happy,
as if she had gotten a special scoop.
**[08:17] ---**
That call was probably not a threat.
**[08:21] ---**
No, wait! If that call had been
a trap to lure her somewhere--!
**[08:31] ---**
Is it Ran-*oneechan* again?
**[08:33] ---**
No.
**[08:35] ---**
It's probably Aki-*san*. Only she
and Ran-*neechan* know this number.
**[08:40] ---**
Oh! Okay!
**[08:45] ---**
Hello, this is Asano. I'm not home
right now, so please leave your--
**[08:52] ---**
Huh? Why'd you hang up?
**[08:54] ---**
Was it not Aki-*san*?
**[08:56] ---**
It was her home. But it
was her answering machine.
**[09:01] ---**
That's odd! Why would she have
you call her home if she isn't there?
**[09:10] ---**
110?
**[09:12] ---**
The police phone number.
**[09:14] ---**
The police?!
**[09:16] ---**
Why would the police call us?!
**[09:18] ---**
No! It's Aki-*san*!
**[09:21] ---**
A bad guy must've caught her!
So she wants us to call the police!
**[09:26] ---**
Then couldn't she
just call them herself?
**[09:31] ---**
What if she's unable to talk?
**[09:40] ---**
Oh no!
**[09:41] ---**
It's an abduction...
**[09:47] ---**
9109.
**[09:49] ---**
That's the city code of her phone number!
**[09:53] ---**
The police won't listen to us with only this.
**[09:57] ---**
If the police can't help,
then the Junior Detective League will!
**[10:03] ---**
Yeah, but this isn't
enough to know where she is.
**[10:07] ---**
Oh...
**[10:08] ---**
Yeah...
**[10:10] ---**
And now for today's sports.
**[10:12] ---**
The J-League game at the
National Stadium between the Tokyo--
**[10:18] ---**
I like Aki-*san* a lot better...
**[10:23] ---**
2003.
**[10:25] ---**
I got it! It's read "*Niousama*"!
**[10:29] ---**
So she's where there
are temple guardian statues!
**[10:33] ---**
Come on. Can't you deduce
a little better than that?
**[10:38] ---**
Nichiuri TV
**[11:11] ---**
The messages after
7:20 make no sense at all.
**[11:18] ---**
Lastly, we've just received this news.
**[11:21] ---**
The Special Investig. Unit of
the Tokyo Public Prosecutor's Office
**[11:24] ---**
is to question the politicians
Mr. Maruya and Mr. Okubo tomorrow
**[11:27] ---**
about their possible
acceptance of large bribes
**[11:29] ---**
in relation to the corruption
case involving Bay Development.
**[11:34] ---**
I've figured out what
Aki-*san*'s messages mean!
**[11:37] ---**
For reals, Mitsuhiko?!
**[11:40] ---**
These are indicating the names
of the politicians who took bribes!
**[11:44] ---**
0 is "maru". Maruya's initial, basically!
**[11:47] ---**
00 is "oo." Okubo's initial!
**[11:50] ---**
And the 96 of 096 is "kuro"!
**[11:53] ---**
So Aki-*san* is trying to say
it's Maruya who's guilty of corruption!
**[12:00] ---**
Then what do 2003 and 5656 mean?
**[12:04] ---**
They're bank account numbers
used for the bribes, of course!
**[12:11] ---**
Alright! Aki-*san* must be
captured at Maruya's home then!
**[12:15] ---**
Let's hurry and save her!
**[12:17] ---**
I heard he lives in West Teitan,
one subway stop from here!
**[12:24] ---**
Let's go, Conan-*kun*!
**[12:25] ---**
Okay.
**[12:31] ---**
Now there's thunder! Let's run, guys!
**[12:42] ---**
Maruya
**[12:44] ---**
Hey, Conan! Hurry up! Conan!
**[12:49] ---**
Keep watch for anyone coming!
**[12:52] ---**
Mitsuhiko! Hurry up here!
**[12:54] ---**
Right!
**[12:55] ---**
Hey, you! What are you doing?!
**[13:01] ---**
Come down here!
**[13:06] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[13:09] ---**
Can't believe you
guys ran off without me.
**[13:12] ---**
Next time, we'll have to do something
about the guard and the dogs.
**[13:17] ---**
You saw them first!
**[13:20] ---**
Stop it!
**[13:23] ---**
Aki-*san*?!
**[13:25] ---**
It's Ran-*neechan*.
**[13:27] ---**
Oh...
**[13:28] ---**
I'll go call her!
**[13:34] ---**
Aww, it's raining again...
**[13:37] ---**
Hello? Ran-*neechan*?
**[13:39] ---**
Conan-*kun*!
**[13:41] ---**
Where are you at this time of night?!
**[13:43] ---**
I paged you and paged you,
but you ignored me!
**[13:46] ---**
S-Sorry! I'll be home soon!
**[13:49] ---**
You better come home quick!
**[13:56] ---**
Huh? There's thunder where you are?
**[13:58] ---**
Yea, it's really rainy and thundery.
**[14:01] ---**
It's nice weather here.
The moon is really pretty!
**[14:06] ---**
It's pouring here, so I don't
think I'll be home for a while.
**[14:10] ---**
Where are you right now, Conan-*kun*?
**[14:12] ---**
Should I bring an
umbrella and come get you?
**[14:16] ---**
Moon?
**[14:18] ---**
What? Hello? Conan-*kun*?
Hey, are you listening to me?
**[14:24] ---**
Now for tomorrow's weather.
**[14:26] ---**
A cold front in the northern Kanto
region will bring clouds and rain.
**[14:30] ---**
Southern Kanto will have clear skies.
Tomorrow's high temperature...
**[14:41] ---**
We're going back to the TV station!
**[14:44] ---**
Hurry, everyone!
**[14:46] ---**
Wait up!
**[14:47] ---**
You better explain, Conan!
**[14:56] ---**
Here, try reading 2003 on its side.
**[15:01] ---**
On its side?
**[15:03] ---**
M-O-O-N.
**[15:06] ---**
Oh, I get it! Awesome!
**[15:09] ---**
So, what's that mean?
**[15:11] ---**
It spells "moon" in English.
**[15:14] ---**
Now, the reason Aki-*san
*sent this "2003" message first
**[15:20] ---**
was because she wanted
us to look up at the night sky.
**[15:23] ---**
The "2003" was displayed at 7:20 pm.
**[15:27] ---**
As I recall, the moon
was in the southeast then.
**[15:31] ---**
But it wasn't visible
from Maruya's mansion,
**[15:34] ---**
because of buildings to the southeast.
**[15:37] ---**
Which means Aki-*san
*isn't at Maruya's home, right?!
**[15:42] ---**
Right... she's being held somewhere
where she can see the moon.
**[15:47] ---**
But that isn't enough to
tell us where she is.
**[15:50] ---**
Exactly.
**[15:51] ---**
So she used numbers like weather symbols
**[15:54] ---**
to indicate weather
changes where she is!
**[15:58] ---**
0 is the circle meaning fair weather.
**[16:01] ---**
00 is the double-circle
meaning cloudy weather.
**[16:04] ---**
096 is a filled circle, meaning rain!
**[16:10] ---**
What about the 5656 at 8:31?
**[16:14] ---**
Say the sound effect for thunder out loud.
**[16:17] ---**
"Goro (56) goro (56)"...
**[16:19] ---**
I get it! 5656 was referring to thunder!
**[16:25] ---**
Yep!
**[16:26] ---**
So she's being held where there
was rain and thunder around 8:30!
**[16:41] ---**
Places with thunderstorms at 8:30 pm?
**[16:45] ---**
Oh, the only one was the area around this TV station
**[16:46] ---**
Nichiuri TV Meteorology Center
**[16:50] ---**
within a 1-kilometer radius!
**[16:53] ---**
It was a passing shower!
**[16:54] ---**
Thanks!
**[16:57] ---**
It's just as you thought!
Aki-*san* is somewhere in this area!
**[17:01] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:06] ---**
0109... What is it?
**[17:09] ---**
Wouldn't 01 be the symbol
for "clear weather"?!
**[17:12] ---**
No, it's still cloudy here.
It must mean something different.
**[17:16] ---**
I bet 0109 means, "I want
to eat a huge eel box lunch!"
**[17:22] ---**
After all, she's probably hungry!
**[17:24] ---**
I think you mean you.
**[17:29] ---**
I'm hungry...
**[17:36] ---**
What's your problem?!
It's not that funny!
**[17:39] ---**
Sorry, sorry! That's not it!
Nice work, Genta!
**[17:44] ---**
Thanks to you, I know where Aki-*san* is!
**[18:07] ---**
The large prop room?
**[18:09] ---**
Yeah! That's where
we got separated from her!
**[18:12] ---**
As I recall, it's the northernmost
room on the first floor...
**[18:15] ---**
Thanks!
**[18:16] ---**
H-Hey!
**[18:17] ---**
Aki-*san*'s in the large prop room!
**[18:21] ---**
Like Genta said, you read the 0,
10, and 9 of that 0109 separately!
**[18:26] ---**
0, 10, 9? O... to... ku?
Odogu! (large prop)
**[18:31] ---**
There are lots of rooms in
TV stations that people rarely enter!
**[18:35] ---**
If the kidnapper works here,
they could use one!
**[18:38] ---**
Does that mean you know who it is?!
**[18:42] ---**
Yeah, because Aki-*san* told us who!
**[18:55] ---**
End of the line!
**[19:00] ---**
It's no use running.
**[19:02] ---**
We know everything.
**[19:04] ---**
Give yourself up.
**[19:06] ---**
You called Aki-*san* here,
knocked her out with drugs or something,
**[19:11] ---**
and locked her in that back room
**[19:13] ---**
to make others think she had run away,
out of fear of that threat.
**[19:18] ---**
Yes, you tried to ruin her credibility
and have her kicked off News City!
**[19:25] ---**
Aki-*san* used her cell phone to
send us messages about her location
**[19:29] ---**
by referencing weather changes
she could see outside the window!
**[19:33] ---**
Except, there was one message
she sent that I didn't understand.
**[19:39] ---**
9109.
**[19:43] ---**
This number came in after
a message to call the police.
**[19:49] ---**
But, if it didn't indicate her location...
**[19:54] ---**
...it indicated her kidnapper's name!
**[19:58] ---**
Oh, no, you don't!
**[20:01] ---**
Take this!
**[20:08] ---**
We're the Junior Detective League!
There's no getting away from us!
**[20:12] ---**
That's right!
**[20:14] ---**
Aki-*san*! Hang on! Aki-*san*!
**[20:21] ---**
9109 is separated as 9-10-9.
Changed to kanji and read aloud...
**[20:29] ---**
... "tsu ku mo."
**[20:31] ---**
That would be you,
Tsukumo Kazumi-*san*!
**[20:37] ---**
Get off me!
**[20:43] ---**
I just couldn't stand it...
**[20:47] ---**
News City was my idea!
It was my show from the start!
**[20:53] ---**
But then they replaced me with
someone younger, someone cuter!
**[21:00] ---**
This is serious business! This is...
**[21:06] ---**
Then earn the spot back with actual skill.
**[21:11] ---**
However you rationalize it,
a crime can't be justified.
**[22:55] ---**
That concludes this
afternoon's weather forecast!
**[22:58] ---**
And cut!
**[22:59] ---**
Good work!
**[23:01] ---**
Sorry for the wait!
**[23:05] ---**
Thank you all so much for yesterday!
**[23:09] ---**
But only the Junior Detective
League could've realized
**[23:12] ---**
that my messages were weather codes!
**[23:16] ---**
But how did you know it was Kazumi-*san*?
**[23:20] ---**
When she tried to put me to sleep,
I caught a glimpse of her nails.
**[23:25] ---**
Oh! The nail art!
**[23:27] ---**
Yep! The design reminded me of
a weather map, so I remembered it.
**[23:34] ---**
That means you're
snow pellets, Genta-*kun*!
**[23:36] ---**
Snow pellets?
**[23:37] ---**
See?!
**[23:41] ---**
Snow Pellets
**[23:44] ---**
Ah! That image fits you perfectly!
**[23:48] ---**
Hey, you!
**[23:52] ---**
Hey, Genta. You're not just snow pellets.
**[23:56] ---**
Hail
**[23:58] ---**
Hail!
**[24:12] ---**
Looks pretty tense.
**[24:15] ---**
Who is that man with the long hair?
