**[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.
