[00:01] ---
    My name's Conan Edogawa!
[00:03] ---
    High school student Shinichi was forced
    to take a drug that shrunk him.
[00:06] ---
    Although smaller, my mind remains
    that of a sharp detective!
[00:09] ---
    Today's case takes place
    in a haunted house!
[00:12] ---
    Even if it's hidden in an eerie basement,
    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 Haunted House Murder.
[02:30] ---
    Come ghost hunting with us, Conan-kun!
[02:34] ---
    Ghost hunting?
[02:35] ---
    Forget about him, Ayumi!
[02:37] ---
    Conan wouldn't be any help
    even if he did come!
[02:40] ---
    But if it's just you and me who go...
[02:43] ---
    Where are these ghosts, anyway?
[02:46] ---
    An old mansion over on 4th Street!
[02:48] ---
    4th Street?
[02:49] ---
    Yeah!
[02:51] ---
    People call it a horror mansion
[02:52] ---
    because a man was beaten
    to death there 5 years ago!
[03:02] ---
    Come to think of it,
[03:04] ---
    I do remember a mysterious
    incident occurring there...
[03:06] ---
    They say that after his wife
    and son moved out,
[03:10] ---
    evil spirits took up
    residence in the house!
[03:12] ---
    Evil spirits?
[03:14] ---
    Late at night, people've heard
    horrible moaning coming from inside,
[03:17] ---
    stray dogs that wander inside
    are found as skeletons the next day,
[03:20] ---
    and then last night, I saw a
    spirit ball in one of the windows!
[03:31] ---
    Well? Doesn't it make you excited?!
[03:33] ---
    That's nothing but nonsense.
[03:36] ---
    In this scientific day and age,
    ghosts and monsters should be left
[03:40] ---
    to television and comic books.
[03:42] ---
    What? Are you calling Ayumi a liar?!
[03:46] ---
    No, I'm just--
[03:49] ---
    Then come with us and prove
    that there aren't any ghosts!
[03:55] ---
    After all, you shouldn't
    be scared one bit!
[03:58] ---
    Eh? Me, come with you?
[04:01] ---
    You believe me, don't you, Conan-kun?
[04:05] ---
    Don't you?!
[04:06] ---
    Yeah...
[04:07] ---
    Okay, then!
[04:09] ---
    Let's get ourselves ready
    and then beat up some ghosts!
[04:12] ---
    Yeah!
[04:13] ---
    Are they being serious?!
[04:29] ---
    Let's all look at what we brought!
[04:32] ---
    I brought a metal ghost-hunting bat!
[04:35] ---
    I brought snacks for when we're hungry!
[04:38] ---
    I brought flashlights for everyone
    and a compass so we don't get lost.
[04:44] ---
    How about you, Conan-kun?
[04:45] ---
    I didn't really bring anything...
[04:48] ---
    It's your own fault if you die!
[04:49] ---
    Yeah! You'll get killed
    if you're careless!
[04:53] ---
    I'll try hard not to die...
[04:56] ---
    Do these guys think they're entering
    a devil's castle or something?
[05:00] ---
    Hey, this gate won't open...
[05:02] ---
    Don't worry.
[05:03] ---
    I found a secret entrance
    when I scouted out the place earlier!
[05:10] ---
    A secret entrance?
[05:16] ---
    Hey! Here it is!
[05:18] ---
    It's hidden by the grass,
[05:20] ---
    but it's just big enough
    for someone to go through! See?
[05:23] ---
    Amazing, Genta-kun!
[05:27] ---
    A secret entrance...
[05:29] ---
    Conan-kun! Hurry up!
[05:31] ---
    Right...
[05:34] ---
    It's open!
[05:36] ---
    It's too dark to see anything...
[05:39] ---
    It certainly is creepy...
[05:41] ---
    Hey... maybe we should go home...
[05:44] ---
    See, it's even starting to rain...
[05:46] ---
    Don't be stupid! We didn't
    come this far for nothing!
[05:49] ---
    You can go home by yourself if you want!
[05:51] ---
    You can't be serious!
[06:00] ---
    Lightning!
[06:01] ---
    Ayumi!
[06:13] ---
    Look closer! It's just
    a sculpture of a demon!
[06:18] ---
    Aw, man! All I did was fall,
    but now my arms and legs are all dirty!
[06:22] ---
    Nobody's been here for a long time,
    so the floor's covered with dust...
[06:28] ---
    Here's a washroom!
[06:30] ---
    Lucky!
[06:35] ---
    Walking around with you guys like this,
[06:37] ---
    it's almost like we're
    in a role-playing game!
[06:39] ---
    Yeah! We're in a party!
[06:42] ---
    I'm a brave fighter, of course!
[06:43] ---
    I'm a cute girl warrior!
[06:46] ---
    I'm a gifted magician!
[06:48] ---
    I guess I'm a--
[06:49] ---
    You're a villager!
[06:52] ---
    But villagers aren't party members!
[06:55] ---
    But you're an important character--
    you give us information!
[06:57] ---
    Yeah! It's the perfect role for you!
[07:00] ---
    Bah! Don't patronize me!
[07:08] ---
    What's the deal, you guys? Hiding
    behind the villager, are you?
[07:12] ---
    Get moving, villager!
[07:14] ---
    Conan-kun! You can do it!
[07:28] ---
    I see. The door opened
    by itself because of the wind.
[07:33] ---
    This is what most "ghosts"
    turn out to be.
[07:38] ---
    You almost sound like a detective,
    Mitsuhiko-kun!
[07:40] ---
    You guys wait here--
    I need to use the restroom.
[07:44] ---
    Will you be alright by yourself?
[07:46] ---
    Of course! I have science
    and logic on my side!
[07:50] ---
    Man, this house sure is huge!
[07:52] ---
    A really rich person
    must've lived here!
[08:09] ---
    Ghosts can't possibly exist
    in this scientific day and age!
[08:14] ---
    That was probably the sound of wind
    blowing through a small hole
[08:18] ---
    or something...
[08:20] ---
    Alright! I'll check for myself!
[08:26] ---
    These stairs go into the basement...
[08:29] ---
    Those sounds are coming
    from down there...
[08:32] ---
    Alright, then...
[08:34] ---
    Mitsuhiko-kun's taking a long time...
[08:36] ---
    It's been twenty minutes...
[08:38] ---
    Maybe he's going Number 2!
[08:42] ---
    The sound's getting louder...
[08:48] ---
    It's coming from that room!
[09:01] ---
    That was Mitsuhiko's voice!
[09:03] ---
    Wait, Conan-kun!
[09:05] ---
    There really is something
    in this mansion!
[09:08] ---
    Hey, Mitsuhiko! Where are you?!
[09:11] ---
    Say something! Mitsuhiko-kun!
[09:14] ---
    Hey!
[09:17] ---
    Where could he have gone?!
[09:19] ---
    He wasn't in the bathroom, either...
[09:20] ---
    That scream was no joke!
[09:23] ---
    Something must've
    happened to Mitsuhiko!
[09:26] ---
    Alright, then...
[09:28] ---
    You two hide in a nearby room!
[09:30] ---
    I'm going to look for Mitsuhiko!
[09:32] ---
    Listen to me! Don't leave
    the room, no matter what!
[09:35] ---
    Hey! Conan!
[09:36] ---
    Conan-kun!
[09:38] ---
    Something's not right!
[09:39] ---
    Supposedly no one's lived
    here ever since the murder,
[09:43] ---
    so why isn't the water turned off?!
[09:46] ---
    There's also that room
    with the open window!
[09:48] ---
    The room hadn't been damaged
    by wind or rain at all!
[09:51] ---
    That means the window must've
    been opened fairly recently!
[09:55] ---
    And then there's that secret entrance
    that was built out of plain view!
[09:59] ---
    Someone's been coming into
    and leaving this mansion!
[10:02] ---
    But who?!
[10:04] ---
    And what for?!
[10:11] ---
    Our moms must be worrying
    about us right about now...
[10:14] ---
    It's already night outside...
[10:16] ---
    Conan sure is taking a long time...
[10:19] ---
    These aren't for you!
[10:21] ---
    Mitsuhiko-kun is probably
    lost and hungry!
[10:26] ---
    Conan-kun too...
[10:27] ---
    These are for them! You can't have them!
[10:30] ---
    Fine...
[10:36] ---
    I smell food!
[10:39] ---
    It's coming from down there...
[10:41] ---
    I'm gonna check it out!
[10:42] ---
    No! Conan-kun said not to leave!
[10:46] ---
    I'll be right back!
[10:48] ---
    Genta-kun!
[10:52] ---
    That's strange! There're no signs
    of anybody anywhere!
[10:56] ---
    Maybe there's really nobody here?!
[11:03] ---
    A photograph...
[11:04] ---
    Is this the mansion's owner
    who was killed 5 years ago?
[11:09] ---
    And is that his wife
    and son behind him?
[11:12] ---
    I thought that the killer
    was never caught,
[11:15] ---
    and that the remaining
    family members moved away...
[11:21] ---
    That was Genta's voice!
[11:23] ---
    Dammit! I told him to hide!
[11:27] ---
    Genta-kun? What's the matter?
    Did something happen?
[11:36] ---
    Genta-kun! Stop trying to scare me!
[11:42] ---
    Wait! Those aren't Genta-kun's footsteps!
[11:45] ---
    Then whose are they?!
[11:59] ---
    Conan-kun!
[12:01] ---
    Don't make any sounds!
[12:08] ---
    Here they come!
[12:46] ---
    It's a ghost!
[12:48] ---
    No, look closer! It's a person!
[12:51] ---
    They're just taking something somewhere!
[12:53] ---
    But where to?!
[12:58] ---
    Wait, Conan-kun!
[13:05] ---
    They're gone!
[13:08] ---
    There aren't any rooms around here,
[13:10] ---
    ...and straight ahead is a dead-end!
[13:12] ---
    So where did that person disappear to?!
[13:14] ---
    I told you it was a ghost!
[13:20] ---
    The dust on the floor has a line in it!
[13:22] ---
    Wait a second! Maybe this is a--
[13:26] ---
    There's a door here.
[13:28] ---
    Yeah! That person just now
    went down through it!
[13:36] ---
    No good! It's too much
    for a kid to open!
[13:39] ---
    I know!
[13:40] ---
    I call these Retractable Suspenders.
[13:43] ---
    One push of a button and they retract
    from their stretched-out state.
[13:47] ---
    They should work great
    for tying up criminals!
[13:50] ---
    Yeah! I'll try using these!
[13:53] ---
    What are you going to do with them?
[13:54] ---
    Just watch and see!
[14:07] ---
    Awesome!
[14:09] ---
    A staircase to the basement!
[14:11] ---
    Maybe Mitsuhiko and Genta are down here!
[14:23] ---
    I see light!
[14:39] ---
    A prison cell!
[14:41] ---
    What's it doing here?!
[14:43] ---
    There's someone in there!
    Look, on the bed!
[14:55] ---
    Who is this guy?!
[14:58] ---
    Someone's coming!
[15:13] ---
    Another bad dream?
[15:15] ---
    You poor thing...
[15:17] ---
    But that was over 5 years ago--
    forget about it already!
[15:22] ---
    No matter how much you suffer,
    it still won't bring him back to life...
[15:27] ---
    Back to life?!
[15:29] ---
    Could she be referring to the
    murdered owner of this house?!
[15:33] ---
    If so, then these two people are--
[15:36] ---
    Eat up.
[15:49] ---
    I'm not keeping you locked up
    down here to make you suffer, you know!
[15:55] ---
    Akio! I'm doing this so
    that you'll have a future!
[15:59] ---
    Aha, now I see the truth behind
    this mansion and that murder!
[16:21] ---
    It sounds like we have some more rats
    that snuck in with the other two...
[16:27] ---
    Show yourself.
    There's no point in hiding!
[16:31] ---
    Come out!
[16:34] ---
    No point in hiding...
[16:36] ---
    You're the one who should
    come out of hiding, ma'am!
[16:39] ---
    I found it in the study earlier...
[16:42] ---
    The photograph of you
    and this house's owner,
[16:45] ---
    who was murdered 5 years ago.
[16:48] ---
    His appearance has drastically changed
    in the 5 years he's lived down here,
[16:52] ---
    but the man standing next to
    you in the picture is your son--
[16:56] ---
    the man in that prison cell!
[16:59] ---
    The mole below his eye was the
    only thing that couldn't change.
[17:02] ---
    I thought something was strange
    when I first entered the house.
[17:06] ---
    The family moved out so the
    mansion should've been empty,
[17:11] ---
    but there was still running water.
[17:13] ---
    After all, nobody is so frivolous
    as to continually pay the water bill
[17:19] ---
    for a house that no one lives in.
[17:21] ---
    And then there's that
    discretely placed entrance.
[17:25] ---
    Compared to the age
    of the surrounding walls,
[17:27] ---
    that wooden door was still new.
[17:30] ---
    My guess is that it was
    built after the incident...
[17:34] ---
    ...so that you could enter and leave
    the mansion without being seen.
[17:37] ---
    But as for why it was necessary
    to make the place look uninhabited,
[17:41] ---
    and why you needed to keep your son
    locked up in the basement...
[17:47] ---
    ...those questions were answered
    by your conversation just now!
[17:51] ---
    Who are you?!
[17:54] ---
    Conan Edogawa. A detective.
[17:58] ---
    A detective?!
[18:00] ---
    There are two possibilities
    that I can think of.
[18:03] ---
    The first is that the house's owner
    was killed by you, his wife,
[18:07] ---
    and that you locked your son up
    because he witnessed the murder.
[18:10] ---
    The second possibility is that it
    was your son who killed your husband!
[18:16] ---
    Knowing that he was the killer,
[18:18] ---
    you decided to protect your son
    by hiding the truth behind the murder.
[18:22] ---
    But the weight of what he had
    done was too much for him.
[18:25] ---
    The moans coming from this mansion
    were probably his deranged screams.
[18:30] ---
    Your son probably wanted to turn
    himself in to atone for his crime.
[18:36] ---
    But you couldn't allow that to happen.
[18:39] ---
    Try to understand!
    This is all for your sake!
[18:45] ---
    Yes. You didn't want your son
    to be known as a criminal,
[18:50] ---
    so you chose to keep him concealed
    here in absolute confinement.
[18:54] ---
    Judging from your conversation
    just now and from your reaction,
[18:58] ---
    your husband's killer must have been--
[19:00] ---
    Shut up!
[19:06] ---
    Stop!
[19:09] ---
    Stop, Mom! He's exactly right!
[19:13] ---
    That's right! I was
    the one who killed Dad!
[19:21] ---
    Akio!
[19:23] ---
    It happened on a spring night
    5 years ago...
[19:25] ---
    I had just failed my
    third college entrance exam...
[19:29] ---
    What? You failed another one?!
[19:33] ---
    You're an embarrassment to your family!
[19:36] ---
    You're pathetic!
    You're a waste of a person!
[19:39] ---
    I was already very mentally anguished,
[19:41] ---
    so when I heard those words
    come from my father...
[19:44] ---
    ...I lost control of myself
    for a split second!
[19:47] ---
    Akio!
[19:48] ---
    When I came to, I was holding a
    blood-smeared candlestick in my hands,
[19:54] ---
    and my father was lying there
    on the floor, nearly unrecognizable!
[19:57] ---
    Don't you worry! I'll protect you!
[20:01] ---
    Mom!
[20:03] ---
    The rest was just as you said.
[20:06] ---
    My mom made it look
    like a robber killed him
[20:09] ---
    and then she stuck me in this cell.
[20:12] ---
    But I can't stand it any longer!
    I can't live like this anymore,
[20:16] ---
    constantly haunted by
    the murder of my own father!
[20:20] ---
    I want to confess my crime
    so I can live with myself!
[20:22] ---
    Get a hold of yourself, Akio!
[20:24] ---
    Hang in there until the
    statute of limitations runs out!
[20:27] ---
    If we keep quiet, nobody will ever know!
[20:32] ---
    Yes, if you remain in hiding like this,
    you will be able to escape the police.
[20:36] ---
    But you'll never escape from the guilt!
[20:41] ---
    Ma'am.
[20:42] ---
    Do you intend to keep this
    heavy weight on your son
[20:45] ---
    for the rest of his life?
[21:03] ---
    The night of terror came to an end,
[21:05] ---
    and bright sunlight lit up the mansion.
[21:08] ---
    The two who disappeared during the night
[21:10] ---
    were found sleeping amiably
    in the grass outside.
[21:13] ---
    Apparently the woman had put them
    to sleep with an anesthetic
[21:16] ---
    and threw them out of the house.
[21:19] ---
    That same day, the son and wife turned
    themselves in to the authorities,
[21:23] ---
    and a baffling murder case came
    to an end after 5 long years.
[21:29] ---
    Naturally, the four of us
    were scolded by the grownups...
[21:33] ---
    I sure wish I was back in my normal body.
[21:53] ---
    Just my imagination
[21:55] ---
    Playing with threads around my finger
    while drinking lukewarm tea
[22:06] ---
    Let's walk lightly
    to the bossa nova rhythm
[22:14] ---
    The puzzle pieces are in my hands
[22:20] ---
    That's right...
[22:25] ---
    I was in the same place last week
    but with different clothes
[22:36] ---
    Step by step,
    there's no reason to be anxious
[22:43] ---
    Case by case,
    I don't care if you laugh
[22:50] ---
    Beyond the countless days,
    she's waiting for me
[22:59] ---
    I gotta go my own way
[23:12] ---
    Another haunted house?!
[23:14] ---
    Yeah! Ayumi found another one!
[23:17] ---
    This one's on 2nd Street,
    and it belonged to the Eto family!
[23:20] ---
    Eto?
[23:21] ---
    People living in the area say it's a
    spooky mansion filled with weird books,
[23:26] ---
    and a boy who used to live there
    by himself was eaten by some monsters!
[23:31] ---
    A boy who lived by himself in a
    spooky mansion filled with books?
[23:35] ---
    2nd Street? Eto?

    Say, are you sure the name was Eto?
[23:41] ---

    katakana "E" and a kanji "TO"!

    to beat up some more ghosts!
[23:52] ---
    Wait! That's not "Eto"! That's "Kudo"!

    Let's go, villager!
[23:57] ---
    Let's go, villager!
[24:08] ---
    He's dead!
[24:09] ---
    We need to contact the police!

    This is the knife
    they used during filming!
[24:16] ---
    Which means the killer
    was someone on the staff!
[24:20] ---
    That's it!
[24:22] ---
    Now I know the truth
    behind this incident!
