[00:01] ---
    My name's Conan Edogawa!
[00:02] ---
    High school student Shinichi was forced
    to take a drug that shrunk him.
[00:05] ---
    Although smaller, my mind remains
    that of a sharp detective!
[00:08] ---
    Today's case involves a
    June bride dressed in white!
[00:12] ---
    Even with her happiness about to crumble,
    there's always only one truth!
[00:15] ---
    The first end of the century in 100 years
[00:21] ---
    When told to cry, I laughed instead
[00:34] ---
    The first end of the century
    in a long, long time

[00:40] ---
    We're leaping into a wide open world
[00:46] ---
    The things I tried to
    understand as a child

[00:52] ---
    remain a mystery even as an adult
[00:58] ---
    I'm neither a hotshot
    nor especially great

[01:04] ---
    All I understand is
    the pounding of my heart

[01:11] ---
    It's neither an answer nor the truth
[01:17] ---
    All I have faith in is
    the pounding of my heart

[01:23] ---
    That and nothing else
[01:47] ---
    The June Bride Murder Case.
[01:52] ---
    Today, a middle school teacher
    that Ran and I had is getting married.
[01:58] ---
    But I'm definitely not here for her sake.
[02:01] ---
    I just wanted to see the wacko
    who's marrying her.
[02:06] ---
    Matsumoto-sensei... I haven't
    seen her since we graduated!
[02:11] ---
    Maybe we'll get to hear her amazing
    singing voice at the reception!
[02:15] ---
    Oh yeah, what about you-know-who?
[02:17] ---
    Eh?
[02:17] ---
    You know, the kid who would
    always get yelled at
[02:19] ---
    for being off key in
    Matsumoto-sensei's music class...
[02:23] ---
    Oh, Shinichi?
[02:25] ---
    I called him but he said wouldn't go
    even if his life depended on it.
[02:28] ---
    So you brought this kid
    with you instead of Mr. Tone-Deaf?
[02:32] ---
    Yep! He insisted on coming!
[02:35] ---
    Excuse me for being tone-deaf!
[02:37] ---
    That lousy woman did nothing
    but torture me for three full years!
[02:47] ---
    Oh! Mori-san and Suzuki-san!
[02:53] ---
    Well? Does it look good on me?
[02:54] ---
    Y-You look beautiful!
[02:57] ---
    S-She does...
[02:59] ---
    "Waiting Room"
    Aw, Kudo-kun can't make it?
[03:02] ---
    How I wanted to show off this dress
    in front of that impertinent brat!
[03:06] ---
    She hasn't changed at all on the inside...
[03:08] ---
    Oh?
[03:11] ---
    Have we met before, little boy?
[03:14] ---
    N-No!
[03:15] ---
    Okay! Look this way, you two!
[03:19] ---
    We're in charge of the video for today!
[03:21] ---
    Make sure the kiss scene
    is a really great one!
[03:23] ---
    Leave it to me!
[03:25] ---
    I bought you your warm lemon tea, Sayuri!
[03:30] ---
    Thank you!
[03:32] ---
    Come to think of it, she was always
    drinking lemon tea.
[03:35] ---
    Even during class...
[03:38] ---
    Wait! Your lipstick will come off
    if you drink it like that.
[03:45] ---
    There you go!
[03:46] ---
    Thanks.
[03:51] ---
    Kazumi... I'm sorry...
[03:54] ---
    About Toshihiko-san...
[03:57] ---
    What are you talking
    about at a time like this?
[03:59] ---
    You better be ready!
[04:01] ---
    I'm gonna tell everyone at the reception
[04:03] ---
    that your new hubby
    used to be my boyfriend!
[04:05] ---
    Kazumi...
[04:07] ---
    Just kidding!
[04:10] ---
    See you in a little bit!
[04:12] ---
    She never stops teasing me...
[04:14] ---
    Who was that?
[04:15] ---
    A bad friend of mine from college.
[04:17] ---
    I have another can,
    would one of you like it?
[04:21] ---
    I'll take it!
[04:29] ---
    What do you think you're doing?!
[04:31] ---
    Ran! Beat this gorilla's brains out!
[04:34] ---
    Oh? If it isn't Ran-kun!
[04:36] ---
    Inspector Megure!
    What are you doing here?
[04:38] ---
    Who in their right mind would miss
    their boss's daughter's wedding?
[04:42] ---
    Boss?
[04:44] ---
    That's right. He's the police
    superintendent and my father!
[04:49] ---
    Your father...?
[04:52] ---
    You can go now.
[04:54] ---
    Yes, sir!
[04:56] ---
    Please forgive us!
[04:56] ---
    Please forgive us!
[04:58] ---
    Don't worry about it, you two!
[05:00] ---
    It's his fault for looking so scary!
[05:03] ---
    Anyway, Sayuri, are you really sure
    you want to marry him?
[05:07] ---
    I have young men with plenty
    of backbone working for me!
[05:10] ---
    Dad! What are you saying
    at a time like this?!
[05:13] ---
    Very well.
[05:14] ---
    Really now! You always have to
    treat me like a child, don't you?!
[05:17] ---
    You are a child.
[05:20] ---
    You still drink this sugary rubbish...
[05:24] ---
    So what?! I like it!
[05:26] ---
    Anyway, how about saying something?!
[05:29] ---
    Look at what your daughter is wearing!
[05:34] ---
    You're beautiful. Though not nearly
    as beautiful as your dead mother.
[05:39] ---
    Can't you ever give a normal compliment?!
[05:46] ---
    What beautiful roses!
[05:48] ---
    Thank you, Umemiya-kun.
[05:50] ---
    Who's he?
[05:52] ---
    You don't remember? That's Umemiya-san--
    he was one year ahead of us.
[06:01] ---
    Lemon tea suits you well,
    Matsumoto-sensei.
[06:05] ---
    Thank you!
[06:06] ---
    Today is a real disappointment for me.
[06:08] ---
    I always believed that only I
    could ever make you happy.
[06:14] ---
    Umemiya-kun...
[06:18] ---
    See you.
[06:20] ---
    What a conceited jerk.
[06:23] ---
    Oh no! The battery's almost out!
[06:28] ---
    No way!
[06:29] ---
    Wasn't there an
    electronics store near here?
[06:35] ---
    I'll be back soon!
[06:36] ---
    Wait for me!
[06:39] ---
    Jeez, you'd think to at least check
    that before leaving the house...
[06:45] ---
    You look exactly like Kudo Shinichi...
[06:49] ---
    Eep!
[06:50] ---
    Just looking at your face
    makes me want to pinch you!
[06:54] ---
    Hey now!
[06:55] ---
    After all, Kudo-kun looked
    just like my very first boyfriend...
[07:01] ---
    His family ran the
    neighborhood candy store,
[07:05] ---
    and whenever someone was bullying me,
    he'd always come to my rescue!
[07:08] ---
    He would always secretly steal
    my favorite drink from his own store
[07:12] ---
    and give it to me...
[07:17] ---
    Warm lemon tea!
[07:20] ---
    Unable to forget those memories,
    I still drink it all the time.
[07:25] ---
    It's like it gives me courage.
[07:27] ---
    So he was the reason I was
    tormented for three long years?
[07:32] ---
    So does he still live there?
[07:36] ---
    No. One day, he suddenly moved away,
    and I've never seen him since.
[07:40] ---
    But there's more to this story...
[07:43] ---
    Hey, what're you being so
    shy about? You're the groom!
[07:48] ---
    Toshihiko-san!
[07:50] ---
    You look stunning, Sayuri!
[07:53] ---
    This is just our little secret, okay?
[07:55] ---
    Huh?
[07:57] ---
    Are you still drinking this cheap filth?
[08:01] ---
    Y-Yes...
[08:05] ---
    You're the successor
    to the Takasugi Group!
[08:08] ---
    Oh! You're one of
    those Suzuki plutocrats!
[08:11] ---
    You know him?
[08:13] ---
    I see him at parties all the time.
[08:15] ---
    He's indecisive and undependable,
[08:17] ---
    and people say that the Takasugi family's
    going to end with him...
[08:28] ---
    Where did that come from
    all of a sudden?
[08:30] ---
    But she's with him,
    so I think he'll be all right...
[08:35] ---
    Sorry to interrupt, but it's
    almost time for the ceremony.
[08:38] ---
    Right!
[08:42] ---
    Go on ahead, Toshihiko-san.
[08:46] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be there soon!
[08:48] ---
    Oh, okay...
[08:55] ---
    So, how's the bride?
[08:58] ---
    Way to go!
[09:08] ---
    What was that sound?!
[09:09] ---
    It came from her room!
[09:12] ---
    Matsumoto-sensei!
[09:22] ---
    It would seem that sodium hydroxide
    was mixed in with the lemon tea.
[09:26] ---
    So she drank it and then--
[09:30] ---
    Huh? There's something
    floating in the lemon tea.
[09:37] ---
    It's a capsule!
[09:39] ---
    What?!
[09:44] ---
    I see. So the perpetrator filled
    this capsule with sodium hydroxide,
[09:48] ---
    then slipped it into the lemon tea.
[09:50] ---
    If so, then it would take time
    for the poison to be released,
[09:53] ---
    making it impossible to determine
    when the crime was committed.
[09:56] ---
    In other words, any one of you six
    who entered her room
[10:01] ---
    could have poisoned the tea!
[10:04] ---
    You can't be serious!
    Does that make me a suspect too?!
[10:07] ---
    Of course.
[10:09] ---
    There are capsules that dissolve in
    hot water in only a few minutes' time.
[10:13] ---
    Okay! Have the capsule analyzed at once!
[10:16] ---
    Say. How come you're not counting him?
[10:19] ---
    I'm pretty sure he entered the room too...
[10:23] ---
    Come now, a police superintendent
    would never poison his own daughter.
[10:27] ---
    No, the boy's right. I'm a suspect
    just as much as the others.
[10:32] ---
    Y-You do have a point...
[10:34] ---
    Come to think of it,
    we were recording a video!
[10:37] ---
    What?!
[10:37] ---
    You're right! Did we
    leave it on when we left?!
[10:41] ---
    The crime might've been caught on film!
[10:54] ---
    There you go!
[10:55] ---
    You still drink this sugary rubbish...
[11:00] ---
    ...That only I could ever make you happy.
[11:03] ---
    Are you still drinking this cheap filth?
[11:07] ---
    It looks like the actual poisoning
    wasn't caught on tape.
[11:09] ---
    Though the video shows that nearly
    everyone touched the can at least once.
[11:15] ---
    Meaning that everyone had
    the chance to poison the drink.
[11:24] ---
    They're still watching it...
[11:27] ---
    I wonder if Matsumoto-sensei's
    surgery is over...
[11:30] ---
    Poisoning her favorite lemon tea...
    how horrible!
[11:35] ---
    Lemon tea, huh...
[11:38] ---
    Every time Sayuri drinks it,
[11:42] ---
    I'm reminded of a little girl
    I liked a lot a long time ago...
[11:44] ---
    She always drank it with such happiness,
[11:47] ---
    but I never even knew her name...
[11:50] ---
    Wait, he couldn't be...
[11:54] ---
    Inspector. The results of
    the analysis have come back.
[11:57] ---
    First, assuming the capsule
    was added to the lemon tea,
[12:01] ---
    it would apparently take 15
    to 16 minutes for it to dissolve.
[12:04] ---
    15 to 16 minutes...
[12:06] ---
    In other words, the poison was added
[12:09] ---
    at least 15 minutes
    before she collapsed.
[12:12] ---
    It was 1:46 when
    Ran-kun called the police.
[12:17] ---
    Assuming she collapsed to
    the floor one minute earlier,
[12:19] ---
    then that means the poison
    was added before 1:30.
[12:23] ---
    It was exactly 1:30 when
    Superintendent Matsumoto left.
[12:26] ---
    What?!
[12:27] ---
    Which rules out both
    the groom and myself.
[12:33] ---
    We came to see
    Matsumoto-sensei after he did.
[12:36] ---
    We found something strange
    about the poisoned can...
[12:40] ---
    The superintendent's fingerprints
    aren't anywhere on it!
[12:44] ---
    You fool! What are you talking about?!
[12:47] ---
    As you can clearly see...
[12:50] ---
    ...I had the can in my hand!
[12:52] ---
    Did you make a thorough check?
[12:54] ---
    Yes...
[12:56] ---
    That's strange...
[13:00] ---
    Oh no! The battery's almost out!
[13:04] ---
    No way!
[13:08] ---
    Really strange...
[13:10] ---
    Wait a minute! When Sonoko left...
[13:13] ---
    ...she didn't have her can with her!
[13:15] ---
    Where in the world did it go?
[13:19] ---
    What?!
[13:22] ---
    Don't tell me that she drank from...
[13:27] ---
    Say, mister. Were the superintendent's
    fingerprints the only ones missing?
[13:31] ---
    No, that Umemiya person's
    weren't on it either.
[13:34] ---
    I figured as much!
[13:36] ---
    In that case, where did
    that capsule come from?
[13:39] ---
    That's it! I've figured out
    the culprit's intention!
[13:42] ---
    I know the truth behind that capsule!
[13:45] ---
    Inspector. I found this in
    a trash can in the hallway.
[13:48] ---
    A glass jar...
[13:50] ---
    That looks like sodium hydroxide inside it.
[13:53] ---
    Sodium hydroxide?!
[13:54] ---
    This could be the container the perpetrator
    used when poisoning the tea!
[13:58] ---
    There's no doubt about it.
[13:59] ---
    Sodium hydroxide is a dangerous chemical
[14:01] ---
    that absorbs water in the air and
    turns into a liquid in mere minutes!
[14:06] ---
    Okay. Send this for analysis too.
[14:08] ---
    I've figured it out!
[14:10] ---
    It was that bastard
    who smeared her dress with blood!
[14:19] ---
    Inspector Megure!
[14:20] ---
    We want to see Matsumoto-sensei
    at the hospital right away!
[14:23] ---
    Hold on a little longer! We're not
    finished with our investigation!
[14:26] ---
    Old man Mori isn't around today,
    so I'll need a pinch hitter!
[14:35] ---
    Now to match this voice changer
    to Sonoko's voice...
[14:39] ---
    Sonoko? What's the matter?
[14:41] ---
    I figured out who poisoned
    Matsumoto-sensei's lemon tea.
[14:48] ---
    You have, Sonoko-kun?!
[14:51] ---
    You said that the perpetrator
    put the poison capsule in her tea
[14:54] ---
    15 minutes before she collapsed, right?
[14:58] ---
    Yes, because it would take 15
    to 16 minutes for the capsule to dissolve.
[15:03] ---
    That's assuming the poison
    was really in that capsule.
[15:07] ---
    All we're sure of is that the capsule
    was floating in the poisoned lemon tea.
[15:13] ---
    So you're saying that the culprit--
[15:15] ---
    Yes. The poison and the capsule
    were added in separately
[15:19] ---
    to fool us into thinking that the poison
    was added at least 15 minutes prior.
[15:25] ---
    If that's true, then you two
    could have done it as well!
[15:31] ---
    Hold on. Everything she's
    saying is pure conjecture.
[15:34] ---
    It really might have
    been a poison capsule.
[15:37] ---
    No.
[15:38] ---
    There is proof!
[15:42] ---
    In the video that Ran taped.
[15:48] ---
    Inspector. Take a close look at
    the can of lemon tea on the screen.
[15:55] ---
    No way!
[16:08] ---
    The labels are facing
    different directions!
[16:10] ---
    Ran. Do you remember where I put
    my lemon tea when this happened?
[16:15] ---
    Yeah...
[16:16] ---
    You were in a hurry
    so you put it on the table...
[16:22] ---
    It couldn't be!
[16:23] ---
    Was that your can?!
[16:27] ---
    That's right.
[16:28] ---
    The reason it looks
    like there's only one can
[16:30] ---
    is because the two cans
    are perfectly lined up!
[16:35] ---
    She took my can, which just
    happened to be in front!
[16:40] ---
    As proof of this,
[16:41] ---
    the poisoned can was devoid of
    the fingerprints of the superintendent
[16:43] ---
    and Umemiya-san,
[16:45] ---
    even though they clearly
    had held the can earlier.
[16:48] ---
    I'd bet that my fingerprints
    are on it, though.
[16:51] ---
    She's exactly right!
[16:53] ---
    Which means...
[16:55] ---
    ...That some time between her taking
    the wrong can and collapsing,
[16:58] ---
    someone put the poison
    and the capsule in separately.
[17:02] ---
    Yes. And the only ones with her
    at the time were Conan-kun
[17:06] ---
    and Takasugi-san,
[17:07] ---
    not to mention me and Ran.
[17:10] ---
    Excluding Conan-kun,
[17:12] ---
    when Ran and I returned
    from buying batteries,
[17:14] ---
    Takasugi-san was holding the can
    and then she took it from him,
[17:17] ---
    so it would've been impossible
    for me or Ran to poison it!
[17:21] ---
    So he's the only one left?!
[17:24] ---
    No. There's one other person.
[17:26] ---
    Matsumoto-sensei, herself!
[17:28] ---
    Suicide?!
[17:30] ---
    But if she did mix the poison in
    to kill herself,
[17:34] ---
    she would've added it shortly
    before collapsing to the floor.
[17:37] ---
    And to do that,
    she would need two things.
[17:40] ---
    An airtight container and a desiccant!
[17:43] ---
    It takes only a few minutes for
    sodium hydroxide to turn to liquid
[17:47] ---
    when exposed to the air.
[17:49] ---
    She was in this room the entire time,
[17:51] ---
    so she would have needed a
    container to safely store it in.
[17:56] ---
    But the container was found...
[17:58] ---
    ...In a trash can in the hallway.
[18:01] ---
    Which is proof that someone
    other than Matsumoto-sensei
[18:05] ---
    brought the poison into this room.
[18:07] ---
    In other words,
[18:08] ---
    the only one who could've slipped
    the poison into the lemon tea...
[18:11] ---
    ...was you, Takasugi-san!
[18:16] ---
    Toshihiko! How could you?!
[18:18] ---
    Why? Why'd you do that to my daughter?!
[18:25] ---
    If you wanna know so badly,
    then I'll tell you!
[18:27] ---
    It all started 20 years ago!
[18:29] ---
    When a car that you were
    chasing ran over my mother!
[18:40] ---
    Mom! Mom!
[18:41] ---
    My mother was still alive at the time...
[18:44] ---
    She could've survived if you had
    rushed her to the hospital in your car!
[18:47] ---
    But instead...
[18:48] ---
    You're in the way! Get out of here!
[18:50] ---
    15 minutes later, my mother died,
    lying on the street.
[18:56] ---
    From that day forth, I never once
    forgot your cruel, heartless face!
[19:02] ---
    Is he telling the truth, superintendent?
[19:04] ---
    Yes. I didn't see her--she was
    obscured by the car's shadow.
[19:08] ---
    Later on, I learned of the accident
    and rushed to his house,
[19:12] ---
    but he had already moved out.
[19:16] ---
    My mother was the only family I had.
[19:19] ---
    I was adopted by the Takasugi family
    as they had no children of their own.
[19:23] ---
    Then seven years ago,
    Kazumi brought a girl with her!
[19:27] ---
    Yes! The instant I learned
    that she was your daughter,
[19:32] ---
    my nearly-forgotten flames of
    revenge roared back to life!
[19:36] ---
    Then why didn't you kill me?!
[19:41] ---
    If you died, you wouldn't get to
    experience how heartbreaking it is
[19:44] ---
    to lose someone dear to you!
[19:50] ---
    She was one stupid girl, though!
[19:53] ---
    She had no clue I was getting
    close to her to get revenge!
[19:56] ---
    Though I'm sure being the heir
    to the Takasugi fortune was--
[20:01] ---
    You're the one who doesn't
    have a clue, Toshihiko!
[20:04] ---
    Kazumi...
[20:05] ---
    Sayuri knew everything!
[20:07] ---
    Even about the accident
    20 years ago and your lineage!
[20:12] ---
    No, you're lying!
[20:14] ---
    She'd never marry me
    if she knew who I really was!
[20:17] ---
    You still don't get it, even after
    seeing all that lemon tea she drinks?!
[20:20] ---
    You're the first boyfriend that
    she's always been thinking about
[20:24] ---
    for the past 20 years!
[20:30] ---
    Sayuri kept talking about
    how much you looked like him,
[20:32] ---
    so I did some investigating
    and found out.
[20:34] ---
    She was really worried,
    even after she accepted your proposal...
[20:39] ---
    She didn't know what to do
    to earn your forgiveness...
[20:42] ---
    Even so, you went and...
[20:47] ---
    Don't tell me she saw him
    poison the drink?!
[20:53] ---
    She knew it was poisoned?!
[20:56] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be there soon!
[21:00] ---
    Matsumoto-sensei...
[21:03] ---
    Superintendent! We just
    received word from the hospital!
[21:06] ---
    She's been upgraded to stable condition!
[21:14] ---
    This is great!
[21:16] ---
    Hurray!
[21:39] ---
    Just my imagination
[21:41] ---
    Playing with threads around my finger
    while drinking lukewarm tea

[21:53] ---
    Let's walk lightly
    to the bossa nova rhythm

[22:00] ---
    The puzzle pieces are in my hands
[22:06] ---
    That's right...
[22:12] ---
    I was in the same place last week
    but with different clothes

[22:23] ---
    Step by step,
    there's no reason to be anxious

[22:30] ---
    Case by case,
    I don't care if you laugh

[22:37] ---
    Beyond the countless days,
    she's waiting for me

[22:45] ---
    I gotta go my own way
[22:56] ---
    Two months later, Matsumoto-sensei
    checked out of the hospital.
[23:00] ---
    It's great that you got to leave
    the hospital earlier than expected!
[23:03] ---
    And I hear that Toshihiko-san's
    sentence was reduced...
[23:06] ---
    Well, I did drink the poison
    of my own free will...
[23:10] ---
    But in the end, it looks like I only
    succeeded in getting him in trouble...
[23:13] ---
    I bet he hates me now...
[23:16] ---
    Cheer up!
[23:19] ---
    In celebration of leaving the hospital,
    I'll buy a drink for you!
[23:22] ---
    Really?!
[23:23] ---
    In that case...
[23:32] ---
    ...lemon tea, it is!
[23:37] ---
    It's important to
    cherish memories of the past!
[23:40] ---
    Really now! If you keep this up,
    you'll never get married!
[23:45] ---
    But she was married three years later...
[23:49] ---
    Married to the one she had thought
    about for 20 long years, of course.
[24:08] ---
    Nothing of the sort!
[24:09] ---
    There's no way you could
    possibly be the murderer!
[24:12] ---
    Why not?
[24:14] ---
    You were the one who just explained
    why she couldn't have done it!
[24:20] ---
    That's it! Now I get it!
[24:22] ---
    This is an alibi trick
    involving elevators!
[24:26] ---
    On the next Conan--
[24:27] ---
    The Elevator Murder Case.
[24:47] ---
    Next Conan's Hint:
[24:49] ---
    Bouquet.
[24:52] ---
    Next episode is another battle
    against the culprit and their trick.
