[00:01] ---
    As times change, difficult
    cases increase in number!
[00:05] ---
    Today's stage is a karaoke box!
[00:07] ---
    Love and farewell
    songs during Christmas!
[00:09] ---
    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!
[01:46] ---
    The Karaoke Box Murder Case.
[01:53] ---
    Why am I stuck with
    you guys during Christmas?
[01:58] ---
    That's my line.
[02:00] ---
    Say, what's up with Shinichi-kun?
[02:03] ---
    He only calls once in a while.
[02:05] ---
    What's his problem?!
    Christmas only comes once a year!
[02:09] ---
    He's such a conceited mystery geek!
[02:12] ---
    That he is.
[02:14] ---
    He's always arrogant,
    snobbish, and mean...
[02:19] ---
    But maybe that's
    what I like about him!
[02:23] ---
    Ran!
[02:25] ---
    What about you?
    Are you seeing anyone?
[02:28] ---
    Of course I am. Kimura Tatsuya.
[02:31] ---
    Tatsuya?
[02:33] ---
    You know, the guy
    from Lex, that rock band!
[02:39] ---
    Oh, just some entertainer...
[02:42] ---
    Dad got me invited
    to one of their parties!
[02:47] ---
    I get to see Tatsuya in the flesh!
[02:50] ---
    Wanna come?
[02:51] ---
    You're going to meet him?!
[02:53] ---
    Her family sure is connected.
[02:56] ---
    When is it?!
[02:57] ---
    Next Sunday!
[02:59] ---
    Count me in!

[03:14] ---
    That's for sure.
[03:16] ---
    Much better than some bands out there.
[03:20] ---
    Tatsuya! You've had too much!
[03:22] ---
    You know you have
    a talk show after this!
[03:26] ---
    Shove it, Ugly!
[03:28] ---
    Ugly?
[03:29] ---
    He's really drunk!
[03:32] ---
    Yamada Katsumi (21) Drums
[03:32] ---
    That's no way to talk to her.
[03:35] ---
    Yamada Katsumi (21) Drums
[03:35] ---
    She's simply doing her job as manager.
[03:39] ---
    Have you been doing
    your job as our drummer?
[03:45] ---
    And you, Mieko.
[03:47] ---
    Shibazaki Mieko (20) Guitar
[03:48] ---
    What was with you today?!
[03:50] ---
    I'm sick of your sucky playing!
[03:53] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[03:54] ---
    Been waiting for you, Sumii-san.
[03:57] ---
    I had my manager reserve this for us.
[04:00] ---
    Sumii Goh (28) Karaoke Box Manager
[04:00] ---
    Thanks! I always
    appreciate your business!
[04:04] ---
    Sure is sad that a former band leader
[04:07] ---
    is stuck running a joint like this...
[04:10] ---
    Don't make me take this back.
[04:11] ---
    Former band leader?
[04:14] ---
    Huh? That's--
[04:16] ---
    Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
[04:18] ---
    I requested it.
[04:21] ---
    For our manager.

    It's perfect for you--
    you did believe in Santa

    Wouldn't you agree,
    Ms. Snooty Manager?

    Fine. I'll sing your song.

[05:28] ---
    Are you quitting Lex?!
[05:30] ---
    Yeah. I'm leaving

[05:35] ---
    Everyone in the band knows.
[05:38] ---
    It's good riddance to

[05:47] ---
    That's terrible...
[05:52] ---
    Hey, that's my song!
    Who requested it?
[05:58] ---
    Tatsuya, it's time to go!

    That was awesome!
[06:43] ---
    How was my song?
[06:45] ---
    It was great!
[06:45] ---
    It was great!
[06:46] ---
    Hey, Katsumi.
[06:49] ---
    Gimme one of them rice balls.
[06:53] ---
    Think fast.
[06:55] ---
    Thank you.
[06:57] ---
    Are you really quitting Lex?
[07:02] ---
    Don't worry, I'm just going solo.
[07:05] ---
    Solo?
[07:07] ---
    My new song's already done.
[07:10] ---
    His new song's--
[07:11] ---
    Done?
[07:13] ---
    What's it called?
[07:15] ---
    Its title? It's called--
[07:22] ---
    What's wrong?!
[07:26] ---
    Tatsuya!
[07:33] ---
    Get an ambulance!
[07:35] ---
    Right!
[07:41] ---
    Too late! He's dead!
[07:44] ---
    That smells like cyanide!
[07:48] ---
    Somebody planned this!
[07:50] ---
    But I was watching the whole time!
[07:55] ---
    The first suspect was Sumii,
    the guy who brought the food.
[07:59] ---
    He and Kimura Tatsuya
    used to be bandmates.
[08:03] ---
    But then Tatsuya went
    pro and became popular.
[08:07] ---
    It looked like a jealousy murder.
[08:10] ---
    But he was cleared of
    suspicion when we learned
[08:14] ---
    that everyone had eaten the food.
[08:16] ---
    Toxins were found on the
    victim's clothes and microphone,
[08:22] ---
    so he had touched the poison
    before eating the rice ball.
[08:27] ---
    Which means the killer
    placed poison on the microphone
[08:30] ---
    which indirectly adhered
    to him when he grabbed it.
[08:36] ---
    That means it was done by
    the person who sang before him...
[08:40] ---
    ...you, Shibazaki Mieko-san!
[08:43] ---
    I hear you sang a
    farewell song while crying.
[08:49] ---
    Did something
    happen between you two?
[08:54] ---
    Tatsuya didn't dump me!
    He turned me down!
[09:00] ---
    Mieko...
[09:01] ---
    When I told him how I felt...
[09:04] ---
    Sorry, Mieko.
    I already like someone.
[09:09] ---
    She's gone right now,
[09:11] ---
    but I'm waiting for her to come back.
[09:19] ---
    He said it couldn't
    work out between us!
[09:23] ---
    Then to pay him back, you--
[09:26] ---
    No! I didn't kill him!
[09:29] ---
    Already likes someone?
[09:30] ---
    Inspector. Tatsuya requested
    the song that she sang!
[09:35] ---
    She had no idea that
    he would be singing next!
[09:39] ---
    She couldn't have
    poisoned the microphone!
[09:43] ---
    That is true...
[09:45] ---
    Say, who requested
    his Bloody Venus song?
[09:57] ---
    Did he always take
    his jacket off when he sang?
[10:02] ---
    Only at the start of every
    Bloody Venus.
[10:05] ---
    Could it be?!
[10:07] ---
    Inspector! What part of his
    clothing had cyanide on it?!
[10:12] ---
    His left elbow area, I believe...
[10:16] ---
    On his staff jacket?!
[10:18] ---
    No, there was nothing on his jacket.
[10:22] ---
    That's it! Now I understand
[10:25] ---
    how the killer poisoned Kimura Tatsuya!
[10:29] ---
    And that killer is one of those three
[10:32] ---
    who have the same jacket on!
[10:41] ---
    Hey, guitar lady.
[10:44] ---
    The manager and Tatsuya-*san
    *were arguing earlier;
[10:47] ---
    were they always like that?
[10:50] ---
    Yeah. They argued
    about everything.
[10:54] ---
    Tatsuya always started it, though.
[10:57] ---
    She's not as bad as he claimed.
[11:00] ---
    She's smart, serious, and beautiful--
[11:04] ---
    but she never caused any trouble.
[11:07] ---
    Inspector Megure!
[11:08] ---
    What is it?
[11:09] ---
    We found this in his office locker.
[11:13] ---
    I don't see anything useful here...
[11:19] ---
    It's a band picture...
[11:21] ---
    That sure takes me back.
[11:24] ---
    That's from when he and I had a band
[11:27] ---
    before he went pro.
[11:30] ---
    But only he and these two are still
[11:33] ---
    in the music industry.
[11:36] ---
    He wasn't the only one who left your band?
[11:40] ---
    Tatsuya hated that person over there.
[11:43] ---
    Said they were the
    reason he wanted to quit...
[11:48] ---
    But they're not in that picture...
[11:51] ---
    She's right here.
[11:53] ---
    She's really changed, though.
[11:56] ---
    Could it be?
[11:58] ---
    Too much, if you ask me...
[12:01] ---
    There's writing on the back!
[12:03] ---
    Lemme see it again!
[12:06] ---
    I see!
[12:09] ---
    But what a sad incident
    this is if it's true...
[12:20] ---
    You know who did it? How?!
[12:25] ---
    Uh-huh. Okay. Got it!
[12:29] ---
    Cancel the investigation!
    Get everyone back there!
[12:33] ---
    Yes, sir!
[12:33] ---
    Yes, sir!
[12:35] ---
    Did something happen?
[12:37] ---
    He's back.
[12:39] ---
    He?
[12:40] ---
    A detective you know very well.
[12:44] ---
    Kudo Shinichi.
[12:46] ---
    Eh?!
[12:46] ---
    Eh?!
[12:50] ---
    Shinichi finally came back!
[12:55] ---
    Shinichi!
[13:01] ---
    Welcome! Thank you all for coming!
[13:05] ---
    Shinichi?
[13:07] ---
    He must be watching with this camera!
[13:11] ---
    Move, Sonoko!
[13:13] ---
    Where are you, Shinichi?!
[13:15] ---
    Let's begin unraveling this case.
[13:19] ---
    Shinichi!
[13:20] ---
    What's with this song?
[13:23] ---
    It's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
[13:26] ---
    They play it everywhere
    around Christmas time.
[13:29] ---
    It also stirs up the
    killer's hatred for the victim.
[13:34] ---
    In other words, the person
    who had Tatsuya-san
[13:37] ---
    sing this song.
[13:39] ---
    Yes. Tatsuya-san's killer
[13:42] ---
    was his manager,
    Terahara Mari-san!
[13:47] ---
    She killed him?!
[13:49] ---
    No way...
[13:53] ---
    Stop kidding around!
[13:54] ---
    I wasn't even in
    the room when he died.
[13:59] ---
    You could've poisoned him
    despite your distance,
[14:03] ---
    simply by having
    him sing this song.
[14:07] ---
    This was his hit song,
    "Bloody Venus"!
[14:14] ---
    Could you sing for us,
    using the mic I've prepared?
[14:18] ---
    There's no poison on it, of course.
[14:23] ---
    Fine. If that'll make you happy.
[14:30] ---
    Wait! Why aren't you
    removing your jacket?
[14:34] ---
    He always took his jacket off
    when he sang this song.
[14:40] ---
    Isn't that right, everyone?
[14:41] ---
    Yeah...
[14:42] ---
    From the top...
[14:49] ---
    Oh, yes.
[14:50] ---
    Don't forget the dance.

[15:05] ---

[15:19] ---
    She did?
[15:21] ---

[15:28] ---
    Satisfied?
[15:30] ---
    Yes.
[15:32] ---
    Now try eating
    the food I've prepared.
[15:36] ---
    You mean this?
[15:36] ---
    Just as Tatsuya-san did.
[15:40] ---
    Pick whatever you'd like.
[15:42] ---
    Assuming you can, that is.
[15:46] ---
    I'd rather not. I touched him
    after he collapsed!
[15:53] ---
    His hands and clothes
    had poison on them!
[15:56] ---
    I could've gotten
    some on my hands too!
[15:59] ---
    Then please check
    her jacket, Inspector.
[16:05] ---
    Her jacket?
[16:08] ---
    Same goes for the jacket!
    I put it on after touching Tatsuya!
[16:12] ---
    If there is poison on it,
    that doesn't mean--
[16:15] ---
    No. It's not poison
    I'm looking for.
[16:23] ---
    A lighter!
[16:25] ---
    Yes.
[16:28] ---
    That's his missing lighter.
[16:31] ---
    In other words,
    that's not her jacket--
[16:34] ---
    she switched hers with Tatsuya-san's
    to dispose of the evidence!
[16:41] ---
    She wiped poison on the
    inside of the left elbow
[16:44] ---
    so that some of it would
    get on his shirt underneath
[16:50] ---
    when he put the jacket on.
[16:54] ---
    All that remained was
    to have him sing Bloody Venus.
[16:58] ---
    During his dance,
    he throws the jacket off
[17:03] ---
    and touches his hands to his elbows.
[17:06] ---
    Then he dies of poisoning
    when he eats afterward.
[17:12] ---
    But why would she do that?
[17:15] ---
    Her motive is in the
    photograph on the table.
[17:19] ---
    It's from when he was
    in Sumii-san's band.
[17:25] ---
    What about it?
[17:27] ---
    There's no one else in the picture...
[17:30] ---
    She is there, Inspector.
[17:34] ---
    In the center of the picture,
    with Tatsuya-san.
[17:37] ---
    Can this be?!
[17:39] ---
    That's right. That picture
    of her is the very motive
[17:42] ---
    behind this murder!
[17:44] ---
    Don't tell me you--
[17:46] ---
    That's right!
    I had plastic surgery!
[17:48] ---
    For Tatsuya!
[17:52] ---
    I fell in love with him back then...
[17:57] ---
    So when he went pro--
[18:00] ---
    Come with me, Mari!
    You can be my manager!
[18:04] ---
    I was so happy when he said that.
[18:08] ---
    I thought he felt
    the same way about me...
[18:10] ---
    So I got the surgery
    to be worthy of him...
[18:15] ---
    His attitude suddenly
    changed after I got it.
[18:19] ---
    He would constantly call me ugly.
[18:21] ---
    He even had me sing
    the Rudolph song earlier!
[18:25] ---
    That's why he requested
    the song for you?
[18:29] ---
    He made me his manager
    just to insult me!
[18:33] ---
    So he had to pay.
[18:35] ---
    He had to pay...
[18:37] ---
    ...because I loved him!
[18:40] ---
    You're wrong, Mari-san.
[18:42] ---
    Tatsuya-san had been in love
    with you for quite some time.
[18:46] ---
    Yeah, right! What would you know?!
[18:49] ---
    Mari! He's telling the truth.
[18:52] ---
    Inspector. Can I have that?
[18:56] ---
    This is a love song he wrote about you.
[19:00] ---
    I Want to Tell the Real You
[19:05] ---
    This is fake!
[19:06] ---
    Nope.
[19:08] ---
    Those were the
    lyrics to his newest song.
[19:11] ---
    He always talked about you, you know.
[19:14] ---
    Why's Mari so self-conscious?
[19:17] ---
    Why'd she change her face for me?!
[19:20] ---
    But he always treated me like--
[19:24] ---
    He wasn't good at expressing himself...
[19:27] ---
    I guess he wanted the old you back.
[19:32] ---
    What have I done?!
[19:39] ---
    Now I see...
[19:41] ---
    I'm waiting for her to come back.
[19:46] ---
    Sorry, Mieko. I already like someone.
[19:52] ---
    The person he liked was the manager...
[19:56] ---
    Tatsuya! Tatsuya!
[20:00] ---
    Tatsuya!
[20:10] ---
    The combination of a man
    unable to express his feelings
[20:13] ---
    and a woman who hid hers
    brought forth a sad ending...
[20:20] ---
    ...in her weeping and tears.
[20:23] ---
    Only her photograph sadly smiled.
[22:04] ---
    That's what you get for
    saying Kudo Shinichi's name...
[22:09] ---
    She's been waiting there three hours
[22:11] ---
    for you to come home.
[22:13] ---
    I wish I could help,
    but there's nothing I can do...
[22:22] ---
    Ran...
[22:30] ---
    Shinichi? Are you in here?
[22:33] ---
    Shinichi? Shinichi!
[22:36] ---
    Where are you?
    Say something if you're there!
[22:41] ---
    The lights...
[22:43] ---
    Shinichi!
[22:45] ---
    Shinichi?
[22:51] ---
    Shinichi?
[22:53] ---
    Yeah, it's me.
[22:56] ---
    I'm finally back.
[22:58] ---
    Shinichi...
[22:59] ---
    Geez, stop cryin'!
[23:03] ---
    Did you wanna see me that badly?
[23:05] ---
    As if!
[23:07] ---
    I'm glad to see you, Ran.
[23:13] ---
    Shinichi...
[23:14] ---
    Wish you could see
    yourself right now.
[23:16] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?!
[23:19] ---
