[00:20] ---
    As times change,
    difficult cases grow in number!
[00:23] ---
    Today's case is in a
    mountain lodge in a blizzard!
[00:25] ---
    The murder victim
    doesn't stay quiet, either!
[00:27] ---
    He sees the
    single truth for what it is,
[00:29] ---
    and looks like a kid
    but has the mind of an adult!
[00:31] ---
    His name? Detective Conan!
[01:46] ---
    The Snowy Mountain Lodge Murder Case.
[01:52] ---
    Yahoo!
[01:56] ---
    Eh? You're not going to ski, Dad?
[01:59] ---
    Don't be stupid!
[02:00] ---
    I'm taking in this nice,
    cloudless sky first...
[02:06] ---
    Along with the grandeur
    of this snowy white landscape!
[02:18] ---
    Damn. I knew
    I shouldn't have come...
[02:23] ---
    Eh?! You lost the
    key to the rental cabin?!
[02:26] ---
    Geez! It's all thanks to you two!
[02:30] ---
    Guess all we can do is call the
    manager to bring a duplicate key.
[02:35] ---
    There aren't any
    phone booths around here,
[02:37] ---
    that cabin is
    still under construction,
[02:39] ---
    and the ski bus already left...
[02:43] ---
    The only thing nearby
    is that one lodge up there...
[02:46] ---
    Me, ask help from some upstart
    with a lodge there? Forget it!
[02:53] ---
    No choice!
    We'll open it by force!
[02:55] ---
    No, don't!
[02:55] ---
    Stop, Dad!
[02:56] ---
    Say! Are you...
[03:00] ---
    Oh! It is Mori Kogoro-san,
    the detective!
[03:03] ---
    I always read about your
    brilliant work in the newspaper!
[03:08] ---
    Wow, what a magnificent lodge!
[03:11] ---
    Such an elegant color and design!
[03:15] ---
    Who was talking about
    rich upstarts just a minute ago?
[03:19] ---
    Come to think of it,
    I haven't heard your names yet.
[03:23] ---
    Are you Mori-san's daughter?
[03:25] ---
    Yes! I'm Ran!
[03:27] ---
    This is Edogawa Conan-kun.
    We're watching him for a friend of ours.
[03:31] ---
    Oh!
[03:33] ---
    This lion-shaped door
    decoration is superb, too!
[03:38] ---
    I was hoping for a horse,
[03:40] ---
    but I guess that was asking too much...
[03:43] ---
    A horse?
[03:44] ---
    T-That's true. Horses
    would be better than lions...
[03:47] ---
    No, no, that's not what I mean...
[03:50] ---
    Dr. Oyama!
[03:52] ---
    Oh! Nakahara-kun!
[03:53] ---
    What took you so long?!
[03:55] ---
    Everyone's been waiting!
[03:57] ---
    Who are these folks?
[03:59] ---
    Oh, some friends I ran into just now.
[04:05] ---
    Oh? You're all doctors
    at the same university?
[04:09] ---
    Yep! We're all assistants for Dr. Oyama!
[04:14] ---
    Doctors are very factional, you see.
[04:17] ---
    I've been studying under the
    doctor for dozens of years now.
[04:22] ---
    I transferred here three years
    ago from some future-less professor.
[04:28] ---
    I'm really glad to be where I am now.
[04:30] ---
    The essay he presented
    the other day was wonderful!
[04:35] ---
    Oh, "Gene Therapy as Treatment
    for Cancer of the Large Intestine"?
[04:42] ---
    The whole medical school
    is praising his essay right now!
[04:45] ---
    Come now, with my brains,
    it was a piece of cake!
[04:53] ---
    Thank you for the meal!
[04:54] ---
    Oh no! I forgot to buy
    snacks to go with our drinks!
[05:00] ---
    I'll go pick some up at the
    shop at the bottom of the mountain.
[05:03] ---
    Could you get some chips?
[05:04] ---
    Dried cuttlefish for me!
[05:05] ---
    I'll have a salad!
[05:07] ---
    Yes, yes. Here, write it all
    down so I know what to buy.
[05:10] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[05:14] ---
    The convenience store
    closes before 10:00, so hurry!
[05:18] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[05:21] ---
    Hey! What time is it?!
[05:23] ---
    8:58...
[05:25] ---
    Uh oh!
[05:29] ---
    What's going on?
[05:30] ---
    A TV show.
[05:32] ---
    He's addicted to a melodrama
    that gets 30% ratings!
[05:36] ---
    Oh, I watch that show, too!
[05:39] ---
    Huh? Where are you off to, Dr. Tobita?
[05:43] ---
    Night skiing.
    I haven't gotten my fix yet.
[05:49] ---
    I should be back by around 11:00.
[05:55] ---
    Well, I guess I'll take a nice,
[05:58] ---
    relaxing bath until the snacks arrive.
[06:01] ---
    Say, did you call the cabin
    manager about our key?
[06:07] ---
    I completely forgot!
[06:09] ---
    That's all right!
    You can stay the night here!
[06:13] ---
    Your father can't exactly
    leave in his state...
[06:20] ---
    I'm going to throw out the trash.
[06:22] ---
    Okay!
[06:28] ---
    Wait! Tsutomu-san!
    Don't leave me!
[06:33] ---
    I have to, Mitsue-san.
    We can never be together.
[06:38] ---
    So, please! Forget about me!
[06:40] ---
    Why?! Why can't we be together?!
[06:48] ---
    I'm back!
[06:49] ---
    Welcome back, Kaori!
[06:50] ---
    It must've been rough
    with the sudden blizzard!
[06:55] ---
    Dr. Tobita!
[06:56] ---
    Man, can't possibly night ski
    with that blizzard out there!
[07:05] ---
    That warms me up!
[07:07] ---
    Oh, are we drinking?
[07:08] ---
    How was your bath?
[07:10] ---
    Just wonderful!
[07:11] ---
    Oh? I had asked for a salad...
[07:15] ---
    Sorry, they were sold out.
[07:18] ---
    And there was no ice cream.
[07:20] ---
    Who asked for ice
    cream in this weather?
[07:24] ---
    Maybe it was Dr. Oyama?
    He does love ice cream...
[07:29] ---
    What's wrong, Conan-kun?
[07:30] ---
    His TV drama ended at 10:00,
    so where could he be?
[07:34] ---
    Dr. Oyama always tapes the show
[07:37] ---
    and replays the
    best scenes afterward.
[07:45] ---
    Damn you... This was
    your original intent all along...
[07:51] ---
    But you won't get away with this!
[07:54] ---
    The great detective,
    Mori Kogoro, is here!
[07:58] ---
    I'm sure that he, if anyone,
    will get this message!
[08:03] ---
    Eh? Mori Kogoro?
[08:05] ---
    The guy always in the newspaper?
[08:07] ---
    Yes! My dad's a detective!
[08:10] ---
    It's past 11:00 now.
[08:12] ---
    I think he's taking a bit too long...
[08:15] ---
    I'll go see what's up.
[08:20] ---
    Huh? He's that famous detective?
[08:23] ---
    Looks sure can be deceiving...
[08:26] ---
    K-Kaori!
[08:28] ---
    Hey! What happened?!
[08:33] ---
    Dr. Oyama!
[08:39] ---
    It's too late. He's dead.
[08:40] ---
    This can't be!
[08:43] ---
    For now, let's untie his ropes...
[08:45] ---
    Stop right there!
[08:47] ---
    I'd appreciate it if you don't
    mess up the murder scene!
[08:52] ---
    Dad! They can't get police cars
[08:54] ---
    or an ambulance
    here in this blizzard!
[08:57] ---
    That so? Then I have no choice.
[08:59] ---
    Looks like I, the great Mori Kogoro,
    will have to take charge here!
[09:05] ---
    You're still so drunk!
[09:09] ---
    I'll ask just to be safe--
[09:11] ---
    no one's touched
    anything in the room, right?
[09:14] ---
    No, nothing aside
    from Dr. Oyama's body.
[09:17] ---
    You found him first,
    Nakahara-san.
[09:19] ---
    I assume the same goes for you?
[09:21] ---
    That's right.
    I saw him covered in blood
[09:23] ---
    and fell down in the doorway.
[09:26] ---
    Was there anything
    of value in this room?
[09:30] ---
    He does have a safe in the
    cabinet to the right of the TV.
[09:34] ---
    Here?
[09:38] ---
    It's all scratched up!
[09:41] ---
    Do you know what's inside this safe?
[09:44] ---
    Cash, I assume.
[09:46] ---
    He always carried large
    sums of money with him.
[09:50] ---
    So I guess they were after money...
[09:53] ---
    What's with this blood trail?
[09:55] ---
    It's almost as if he
    crawled to the wall...
[09:57] ---
    And why is he sitting formally?
[10:03] ---
    The blood on the table stops cleanly...
[10:06] ---
    Ah. The tablecloth slipped off...
[10:10] ---
    Marks from the bloodied rope!
[10:13] ---
    Could this be a dying
    message from Dr. Oyama?!
[10:17] ---
    So they used tape on the window
    to muffle the sound, then snuck in...
[10:25] ---
    They were even nice enough to
    leave footprints outside the window!
[10:31] ---
    I think I've got this figured out!
[10:33] ---
    Hmmm...
[10:34] ---
    No "hmmms"! Get outta here!
[10:40] ---
    I hate to ask, but could
    you examine him for me?
[10:44] ---
    As doctors, you're more
    qualified than I am.
[10:47] ---
    Right.
[10:52] ---
    Man, this is bad!
[10:54] ---
    Even his beloved gold
    watch is covered in blood!
[10:57] ---
    Quit joking around at
    a time like this!
[11:01] ---
    I estimate his time of death to
    be between 9:30 and 10:00 pm.
[11:05] ---
    I see. So it was
    during his TV drama?
[11:10] ---
    Yes.
[11:11] ---
    There are countless cuts
    all over his body,
[11:14] ---
    but it appears
    he died of suffocation
[11:17] ---
    after having both lungs punctured.
[11:19] ---
    Suffocation?
[11:21] ---
    Basically, with holes in his lungs,
[11:23] ---
    he couldn't hold air to breathe.
[11:28] ---
    He probably suffered terribly
    for ten or fifteen minutes...
[11:33] ---
    That's horrible!
[11:33] ---
    Who on earth would do this?!
[11:35] ---
    This was most likely
    done for monetary gain.
[11:39] ---
    After breaking in
    through the window,
[11:41] ---
    the killer attacked and tied up
    Dr. Oyama, who was watching TV,
[11:45] ---
    then demanded the safe
    combination, but didn't get it.
[11:49] ---
    Enraged, the culprit stabbed
    Oyama-san and fled back out the window.
[11:55] ---
    Ugh, talk about dense...
[11:58] ---
    Oh! This man has a cool watch!
    It's all sparkly!
[12:02] ---
    Conan-kun!
[12:03] ---
    Say, he was tied up, right?
[12:05] ---
    Then he was super lucky the
    killer didn't take his gold watch!
[12:12] ---
    How odd for someone after
    money to overlook a watch like that...
[12:18] ---
    Then that means...
[12:21] ---
    ...that the killer must be pretty stupid!
[12:25] ---
    But don't you think the
    killer must've been gutsy?
[12:31] ---
    See? Look at the footprints outside!
[12:34] ---
    They come straight to this room!
[12:38] ---
    So what?
[12:42] ---
    If it was me, I'd be afraid
    someone else was in the room
[12:44] ---
    and would sneak around
    and peek in before going inside!
[12:50] ---
    Dad! Does that mean...
[12:53] ---
    Scratching the safe and tying
    Oyama-san up was camouflage,
[12:58] ---
    meant to make it look
    like this was about money...
[13:03] ---
    The killer knew Oyama-*san
    *would be watching TV alone then...
[13:10] ---
    In other words,
    one of you four is the killer!
[13:15] ---
    What?!
[13:16] ---
    What the hell?!
[13:16] ---
    Then let's hear each of your
    alibis between 9:30 and 10:00.
[13:23] ---
    I was at the convenience store.
[13:26] ---
    I left at 9:00 and
    returned at around 9:50.
[13:31] ---
    The only snacks that were sold
    out were salad and ice cream.
[13:37] ---
    But you could've finished
    sooner if you rushed in your car.
[13:40] ---
    It takes over forty
    minutes round-trip!
[13:43] ---
    If you think I'm lying,
    you can try it with my car!
[13:47] ---
    I went night skiing, a ski slope
    also forty minutes round-trip.
[13:52] ---
    Do you have proof of this?
[13:53] ---
    Sure do.
[13:55] ---
    This lift ticket has today's date.
[13:58] ---
    See, it even has the time.
[14:00] ---
    I cleaned up and washed things
     with Ran-chan and Conan-kun.
[14:06] ---
    That's true, Dad.
[14:07] ---
    She only left for two or three
    minutes to throw out the trash.
[14:10] ---
    I was taking a bath from
    9:30 until shortly after 10:00.
[14:14] ---
    There's one other person besides
    Kanazawa-san with a flimsy alibi.
[14:23] ---
    B-Blood stains?!
[14:25] ---
    Huh? But why isn't
    there any blood on the sofa?
[14:28] ---
    Did someone put it
    here after the blood dried?!
[14:32] ---
    Wait a minute. The blood-smeared
    tablecloth... Could it be?!
[14:37] ---
    It matches perfectly!
    This lighter was sitting here!
[14:42] ---
    Could this be...
[14:45] ---
    Come to think of it,
    this afternoon, Oyama-san said...
[14:47] ---
    I was hoping for a horse,
    but I guess that was asking too much...
[14:51] ---
    That was when he
    asked me and Ran our names...
[14:55] ---
    That's it! A horse!
    That's what he meant!
[14:59] ---
    This really is Oyama-san's
    dying message!
[15:01] ---
    It explains his
    formal way of sitting,
[15:03] ---
    and the bloody lighter on the sofa!
[15:08] ---
    And just as his dying message says,
[15:12] ---
    the killer was that person!
[15:13] ---
    
[15:22] ---
    Hey, mister. There's
    something weird on the sofa--
[15:25] ---
    Knock it off, you damn kid!
[15:31] ---
    What's wrong, Dad?!
[15:32] ---
    I think he's drunk.
[15:35] ---
    Don't be stupid! I ain't drunk!
[15:37] ---
    I figured it all out!
[15:39] ---
    Eh?! What, now?!
    What did you figure out?!
[15:42] ---
    The killer. I just now figured
    out who stabbed Oyama-san!
[15:50] ---
    First is Tobita-san,
    who went night skiing.
[15:54] ---
    He wouldn't have made up a
    fake story that could be easily verified.
[15:58] ---
    Next is you, Ezumi-san.
[16:00] ---
    You only left Ran and
    Conan for two or three minutes.
[16:03] ---
    Not enough time to
    have killed Oyama-san.
[16:06] ---
    Which only leaves Kanazawa-*san
    *and Nakahara-san without alibis.
[16:11] ---
    Hold on! I bought the snacks
    that everyone asked--
[16:15] ---
    Then how much did it all cost?
[16:18] ---
    I forget!
[16:21] ---
    No, you didn't forget.
    You don't know.
[16:24] ---
    Because you bought large amounts
    of all kinds of snacks in advance.
[16:30] ---
    You bought them this afternoon
    when you bought the food for dinner.
[16:35] ---
    Before the murder,
    you took everyone's orders,
[16:38] ---
    and then pretended
    to leave in your car.
[16:42] ---
    You then stopped somewhere
[16:45] ---
    and pulled out
    the snacks they ordered.
[16:49] ---
    Now that you had an alibi,
    you went and murdered Oyama-san.
[16:54] ---
    Don't be stupid; you have no proof!
[16:57] ---
    No, you know yourself
    that there's proof
[17:00] ---
    in this room that you did it.
[17:06] ---
    Have a look at the table.
[17:08] ---
    The blood ends cleanly.
[17:10] ---
    Doesn't it seem like
    something was on it?
[17:12] ---
    The tablecloth!
[17:14] ---
    Please put it on the table so
    that it matches with the blood stains.
[17:23] ---
    That is Oyama-san's dying message.
[17:28] ---
    How is this a message?
[17:29] ---
    Think back. Oyama-*san
    *died while sitting formally.
[17:36] ---
    It should start to become clear.
[17:38] ---
    Each of your names includes characters
    used in shogi (Japanese chess).
[17:44] ---
    S-Shogi?
[17:46] ---
    Say, Dr. Oyama always said how
    a horse would make the full set.
[17:51] ---
    Yes. You make up all
    the pieces but a knight.
[17:56] ---
    Ran. Take the lighter on the
    sofa and put it on the tablecloth.
[18:01] ---
    Right.
[18:04] ---
    There's only one place the blood
    on the lighter matches the tablecloth.
[18:09] ---
    Here.
[18:12] ---
    Kaori
[18:13] ---
    This is a lance!
[18:14] ---
    Yes. That is a lance's starting position.
[18:18] ---
    This is a dying message that
    gives your name, Nakahara Kaori-san!
[18:24] ---
    But how did you know that before
    putting the tablecloth on the table?
[18:29] ---
    Look closely.
[18:31] ---
    That square is the only
    one with long blood trails.
[18:34] ---
    In other words, it was on
    the very edge of the table.
[18:39] ---
    I see!
[18:40] ---
    It just coincidentally
    turned out that way!
[18:43] ---
    Then why did you move it?
[18:47] ---
    It was you who tossed
    the tablecloth aside, yes?
[18:50] ---
    No! It must've happened when
    the killer and Dr. Oyama struggled!
[18:56] ---
    No. The blood on
    the table ends cleanly,
[19:00] ---
    and the sofa the bloody lighter
    was on has no blood at all.
[19:05] ---
    This is proof that someone
    moved it after the blood dried.
[19:12] ---
    In other words, the killer
    must've returned to the scene,
[19:17] ---
    noticed the message,
    and tossed it aside!
[19:22] ---
    Am I wrong, Nakahara Kaori-san?!
[19:25] ---
    Kaori...
[19:26] ---
    Your undoing was that you noticed
    the message after you screamed.
[19:34] ---
    And one other thing--
[19:36] ---
    you said they were out
    of salad and ice cream,
[19:40] ---
    but setting aside the salad,
    selling out of ice cream is--
[19:43] ---
    That's enough!
[19:45] ---
    That's right! I killed him!
[19:48] ---
    Why would you do that to him, Kaori?!
[19:51] ---
    You got along so well!
[19:53] ---
    Yes, he was like a father to me.
[19:56] ---
    That's why I couldn't forgive him...
[19:59] ---
    I couldn't believe he'd
    steal my paper from me!
[20:02] ---
    Paper? You don't mean...
[20:03] ---
    "Gene Therapy as Treatment for
    Cancer of the Large Intestine"?!
[20:06] ---
    That's right!
    He stole it from me!
[20:09] ---
    After I had spent six whole
    years pouring my life into that essay!
[20:16] ---
    Yes, the paper I wrote
    for my late father's sake...
[20:22] ---
    My father died of large intestinal
    cancer when I was very young.
[20:27] ---
    The reason I became a doctor
    devoted to large intestinal cancer
[20:31] ---
    was to prevent any
    more cases like my father's!
[20:34] ---
    Yet, after he stole the paper
    I had finally completed, that man...
[20:41] ---
    There's no point.
[20:42] ---
    Nobody'll listen to
    you if you said you wrote it.
[20:47] ---
    But society will pay attention if
    a famous professor makes it public!
[20:52] ---
    I'm sure your father
    would be happier that way!
[20:57] ---
    It was then that I devised this plan.
[21:01] ---
    I decided to kill the man who
    stomped on my feelings for my father
[21:04] ---
    by puncturing his lungs,
    one of the worst ways to die...
[21:11] ---
    But I never once imagined
    he would leave a dying message
[21:14] ---
    during those ten to fifteen minutes of agony!
[21:19] ---
    But great detective.
[21:20] ---
    There was one mistake in your theory.
[21:23] ---
    I had predicted the ice cream and salad.
[21:28] ---
    They were sold out of salad,
    but I did buy ice cream.
[21:32] ---
    Then why?
[21:34] ---
    It melted inside the car.
[21:37] ---
    I had everyone's snacks ready,
[21:40] ---
    and told myself,
    "OK, time to kill him."
[21:43] ---
    And then I suddenly
    thought back to my father.
[21:45] ---
    After spacing out for a while,
    the car's heater had melted it...
[21:52] ---
    To think his ice
    cream would trip me up...
[21:58] ---
    It's ridiculous!
[23:31] ---
    Dying messages. Sometimes,
    they're expressed in unusual ways.
[23:37] ---
    Got your angel!
[23:39] ---
    Your silver general is going to waste!
[23:41] ---
    Alright! Now it's finished!
[23:45] ---
    Sometimes, when you change
    your perspective of something ordinary...
[23:48] ---
    Look from above!
[23:53] ---
    Idiot
[23:54] ---
    Idiot?!
[23:56] ---
    Why, you!
[24:04] ---
    Dead in the pool?!
[24:06] ---
    He drowned to death.
[24:08] ---
    Just because you've
    been in water before
[24:11] ---
    doesn't make you an expert!
[24:13] ---
    Don't tell me you painted
    what you saw from here?!
[24:16] ---
    This is! Ah, now I get it!
    That person was the killer!
[24:21] ---
    Yes, this was a murder
    made to look like an accident!
[24:25] ---
