    As times change,
    difficult cases will increase in number!
[00:04] ---
    Today's stage is a golf range!
[00:06] ---
    A nice shot, full of bloodlust!
[00:09] ---
    He sees the single
    truth for what it is,
[00:10] ---
    and looks like a kid but
    has the mind of an adult!
[00:13] ---
    His name? Detective Conan!
[01:47] ---
    "The Golf Range Murder Case."
[01:52] ---
    "Beika Golf Garden"
[02:03] ---
    Off it goes!
[02:10] ---
    I don't think he
    and golf mix well...
[02:13] ---
    Yeah, he says he's not good
    at any sports that use equipment.
[02:18] ---
    Then he should've said no...
[02:21] ---
    The reason he picked up golf
[02:24] ---
    was a phone call from
    Nichiuri TV three days ago.
[02:28] ---
    Huh? Pro-amateur
    charity golf tournament?
[02:32] ---
    I'm sorry, but golf's not really my--
[02:36] ---
    What?! Okino Yoko recommended me?!
[02:39] ---
    Yoko-chan's entering?!
[02:41] ---
    I'll do it! I may not look like it,
[02:44] ---
    but I'm actually a golf master!
[02:49] ---
    Still...
[02:53] ---
    ...just because
    early morning is cheaper,
[02:56] ---
    6:30 is too early!
[02:58] ---
    Especially when
    you're dragging us along!
[03:04] ---
    Well, then! Let's work up
    another good sweat today!
[03:08] ---
    Yes, it's perfect exercise
    just before work!
[03:11] ---
    Thanks to you,
    my health's gotten much better!
[03:15] ---
    Oh? I bet so!
[03:20] ---
    "Reserved"
[03:30] ---
    What? Your stomach hurts?!
    What a wet blanket!
[03:33] ---
    Just go to the bathroom already!
[03:52] ---
    Strike three, you're out!
[03:54] ---
    When is one gonna make it to the stands?
[04:05] ---
    I'm gonna go watch the other people!
[04:07] ---
    --Don't bother them, now.
    --I won't!
[04:14] ---
    --Sir. You can have mine.
    --Oh, thanks.
[04:17] ---
    What a brown-noser...
[04:20] ---
    Little boy. You should stay away,
    it's dangerous here.
[04:22] ---
    This is far enough away, isn't it?
[04:26] ---
    Hey.
[04:28] ---
    Be sure to write off his driver
    repair as a section expense!
[04:32] ---
    Yes, I know.
[04:46] ---
    See? I told you it was dangerous...
[04:49] ---
    No kidding...
[05:11] ---
    Nice shot!
[05:12] ---
    That one really flew!
[05:15] ---
    You have Sunday's farewell
    contest in the bag!
[05:20] ---
    Yes!
[05:29] ---
    That guy's done already?
[05:31] ---
    He hit them at
    a pretty quick pace...
[05:35] ---
    Plus he gave some of
    his golf balls to his boss.
[05:40] ---
    What an obvious suck-up.
[05:53] ---
    Nice shot!
[05:57] ---
    Here's your driver.
[06:14] ---
    Damn you!
[06:16] ---
    C'mon!
[06:18] ---
    --Another miss?
    --Yep. Twenty in a row...
[06:40] ---
    What happened?!
[06:44] ---
    --Sir!
    - -Stop! Don't touch him!
[06:49] ---
    He's dead...
[06:51] ---
    --Ran! Call Inspector Megure!
    --Right!
[06:55] ---
    What on earth happened?!
[06:57] ---
    It was most likely a bomb that exploded.
[07:00] ---
    A bomb?!
[07:04] ---
    This unique acrid smell...
    Black powder!
[07:11] ---
    Chief!
[07:12] ---
    Call the police!
[07:13] ---
    No, there's a hospital
    just down the street!
[07:16] ---
    Oh! You're injured, too!
[07:19] ---
    I'm fine! But we gotta
    get him to the hospital!
[07:22] ---
    Understood!
[07:32] ---
    The deceased is Director
    Tachibana of Itsui Electronics...
[07:36] ---
    And who are you?
[07:38] ---
    I'm Yasui, the section manager,
[07:41] ---
    and this is Okubo and Minami.
[07:43] ---
    We all work under Director Tachibana
    in Product Development.
[07:48] ---
    Do you come here often?
[07:51] ---
    Yes, as it's close to the office.
[07:54] ---
    But today was the director's last day.
[07:56] ---
    His last day?
[07:58] ---
    He was going to be promoted
    to head of the New York branch.
[08:04] ---
    Inspector. It appears it was
    black powder that was used.
[08:09] ---
    And please come over here.
[08:13] ---
    This is a fragment of the driver head.
[08:17] ---
    And these are all ball fragments...
[08:21] ---
    ...but look at this.
[08:23] ---
    What's this?
[08:25] ---
    It appears to be a fuse.
[08:27] ---
    In other words...
[08:28] ---
    ...the bomb was inside the ball,
[08:32] ---
    and set to explode when he hit it.
[08:37] ---
    Precisely.
[08:43] ---
    Tell me, do all the golf balls
    here have red lines on them?
[08:47] ---
    No, blue lines.
[08:49] ---
    Blue lines?
[08:52] ---
    There are some there.
[08:54] ---
    I see. They have single blue lines.
[08:59] ---
    Which means the red,
    crossed lines mark the bomb ball.
[09:06] ---
    The question is, was this meant
    specifically for Director Tachibana,
[09:10] ---
    or was it a random act of terrorism...
[09:13] ---
    I think it was meant for him specifically.
[09:17] ---
    Oh? Why is that?
[09:19] ---
    Because all three of us here
    hated him enough to kill him.
[09:28] ---
    Come again?!
[09:29] ---
    W-What are you talking about, Minami?!
[09:31] ---
    That's true.
[09:33] ---
    We both had plenty of reason to kill him.
[09:36] ---
    He had already taken credit
    for three of my product ideas,
[09:42] ---
    and he always ignored you, no matter
    how many good ideas you had.
[09:48] ---
    N-Not me! I had no
    problems with the director!
[09:51] ---
    Drop the act.
[09:54] ---
    We all know he stole your
    girlfriend a long time ago!
[09:59] ---
    N-No! She didn't get stolen!
    She dumped me!
[10:04] ---
    That's it! I know who killed
    Director Tachibana, Inspector!
[10:09] ---
    You do, Mori-kun?!
[10:11] ---
    Yes! First is the M.O...
[10:14] ---
    The killer mixed the bomb ball
    with other balls in the machine,
[10:19] ---
    so that the victim would hit it!
[10:23] ---
    The question then is,
[10:25] ---
    who got the golf balls
    for Director Tachibana?
[10:31] ---
    That was this Okubo person.
[10:40] ---
    Meanwhile, Minami-*san
    *was in the restroom,
[10:44] ---
    and the Yasui guy
    was at his own machine.
[10:46] ---
    So it was you!
[10:49] ---
    The kid's right, neither me nor Minami
[10:51] ---
    touched the director's basket!
[10:54] ---
    No one else could've put
    the bomb ball in there but you!
[10:58] ---
    But that's not necessarily the case.
[11:02] ---
    There's no question that Minami-san
[11:04] ---
    was far away from the victim.
[11:07] ---
    But not you, Yasui-san.
[11:11] ---
    I hear you shared some of
    your golf balls with the victim.
[11:17] ---
    T-That was...
[11:19] ---
    In other words,
[11:20] ---
    you could have put
    the bomb ball in there.
[11:25] ---
    W-Wait!
    If I did put it in there,
[11:30] ---
    I could've died in the explosion too!
[11:35] ---
    The machines use a queue system;
[11:38] ---
    the last balls in
    are the last ones out.
[11:43] ---
    And you finished hitting
    before Tachibana-san.
[11:48] ---
    Could that've been so you would finish
[11:51] ---
    before he hit the bomb ball?
[11:54] ---
    No! I just have a
    habit of hitting quickly!
[11:58] ---
    Isn't that right, Okubo?! Minami?!
[12:03] ---
    Then one other thing...
[12:04] ---
    Where were you during the explosion?
[12:08] ---
    At this point, Okubo-*san
    *can also be removed as a suspect.
[12:12] ---
    The reason being that he was
    caught in the blast, as was Minami-san.
[12:19] ---
    But I believe you were by the entrance.
[12:24] ---
    T-That was...
[12:26] ---
    Was it because you saw the
    red-lined ball come up and took cover?
[12:34] ---
    No! I went to order coffee!
[12:38] ---
    Coffee?
[12:39] ---
    Yes! The director liked to
    drink coffee after he finished hitting!
[12:46] ---
    So I always went and ordered
    it ten minutes before he finished!
[12:53] ---
    He's telling the truth.
[12:55] ---
    We brew our coffee from beans,
[12:57] ---
    so he always asks ahead of time.
[13:03] ---
    But it seems a bit too convenient
    that you were gone when it blew up.
[13:13] ---
    In other words,
[13:14] ---
    you think Yasui-san did it?
[13:16] ---
    That's right!
[13:17] ---
    There's no question about it!
[13:19] ---
    You can't be serious!
[13:21] ---
    I'm not the killer! Honest!
[13:23] ---
    Yasui-san. Just to be sure,
    may we check your things?
[13:28] ---
    Y-Yes, that's fine...
[13:33] ---
    The old man's logic so far
    has been unusually consistent.
[13:37] ---
    But if Yasui-*san
    *really was the killer...
[13:43] ---
    Inspector! I found this in his bag!
[13:46] ---
    This is--!
[13:48] ---
    T-That's impossible!
[13:50] ---
    This is immutable proof!
[13:52] ---
    You had a backup
    ready in case of a dud!
[13:57] ---
    No! I didn't put that there!
[13:59] ---
    Boy, what an incredibly
    simple case this was!
[14:04] ---
    For the great Mori Kogoro,
[14:07] ---
    it was truly a piece of cake!
[14:12] ---
    This is way too simple.
[14:14] ---
    Did Yasui-san not care if he got
    caught for killing Director Tachibana?
[14:19] ---
    No... There's something we're overlooking!
[14:24] ---
    Something not even I noticed!
[14:29] ---
    Huh? There's a ball on the tee...
[14:31] ---
    Guess the old man missed it again!
[14:36] ---
    Wait! I'm pretty sure I--
[14:42] ---
    I just assumed the old man
    hit the ball into a metal post.
[14:48] ---
    But he didn't...
[14:50] ---
    Then what was that sound?
[15:04] ---
    Smells like explosives.
[15:06] ---
    Which means this was
    the ball Director Tachibana hit,
[15:10] ---
    and that metallic
    sound was when it hit a post.
[15:15] ---
    Then what were
    those bomb ball fragments?
[15:19] ---
    That's it!
[15:20] ---
    This is a trick the killer set!
[15:22] ---
    The real culprit is someone else!
[15:25] ---
    
[15:29] ---
    We can talk down at the station.
[15:31] ---
    Oh no! I have to hurry!
[15:36] ---
    Alright! The usual method!
[15:43] ---
    Inspector! Please believe me!
[15:46] ---
    I'm not the killer, honest!
[15:49] ---
    That's right, you're
    not the killer, Yasui-san.
[15:53] ---
    Dad?!
[15:55] ---
    Assuming the explosion happened
    when the victim hit a bomb ball
[16:01] ---
    was a mistake from the very start!
[16:03] ---
    What are you saying, Mori-kun?!
[16:05] ---
    We found a ball fragment
    with a fuse at the scene!
[16:09] ---
    Yes, we did. But Inspector,
    take a look at this.
[16:14] ---
    I found that ball by a
    metal post at the far end net.
[16:18] ---
    It's not much, but it
    should smell of explosives.
[16:22] ---
    Yes, indeed.
[16:23] ---
    When the bomb went off,
[16:26] ---
    Tachibana-san had hit
    not the red ball,
[16:28] ---
    but that one with a blue stripe.
[16:33] ---
    H-Hold on, now!
[16:34] ---
    I don't get what you're saying!
[16:37] ---
    The killer didn't place the bomb
    ball in Tachibana-san's machine;
[16:42] ---
    he planted it inside
    the driver head beforehand!
[16:45] ---
    Eh?!
[16:47] ---
    This is where the killer was crafty.
[16:51] ---
    If there were fragments
    left over after the explosion,
[16:55] ---
    everyone would simply
    assume it was the ball that blew up.
[17:03] ---
    Yes! After the explosion,
[17:06] ---
    the killer set down a
    pre-prepared fragment
[17:08] ---
    when given the opportunity!
[17:10] ---
    B-But that would mean the killer...
[17:13] ---
    Yasui-san. I believe you mentioned
    the director's driver repair fees?
[17:20] ---
    Yes. The shaft had a crack in it,
    so I had Minami send it for repairs.
[17:25] ---
    Minami! You--!
[17:29] ---
    Minami-san.
[17:30] ---
    Where did you have the driver repaired?
[17:32] ---
    Oh, with us.
[17:34] ---
    We also do club repair here.
[17:36] ---
    In what way did you repair it?
[17:39] ---
    I felt it best to turn it
    into a carbon shaft club.
[17:48] ---
    That club was given to the director
    by the current CEO fifteen years ago.
[17:53] ---
    So the director
    was very attached to it...
[17:56] ---
    So it was an old-fashioned wood head?
[18:00] ---
    So, when did you return
    the repaired club to Minami-san?
[18:03] ---
    I returned it to him two nights ago.
[18:06] ---
    Two nights ago?!
[18:08] ---
    But you gave it to
    the director this morning!
[18:12] ---
    Meaning the driver was in your
    possession for an entire day and night.
[18:21] ---
    Let us look back at your actions today.
[18:25] ---
    Immediately after arriving here...
[18:27] ---
    What? Your stomach hurts?!
    What a wet blanket!
[18:30] ---
    Just go to the bathroom already!
[18:34] ---
    That was just one
    of the steps of his plan.
[18:40] ---
    Did you perhaps usually have
    Minami-san get your golf balls
[18:46] ---
    and have him put ten or so in
    Director Tachibana's own machine?
[18:51] ---
    T-That's right...
[18:53] ---
    This time, he purposely said his
    stomach hurt and fled to the restroom
[18:59] ---
    to pass that role onto you.
[19:02] ---
    Moreover, he planned to narrow
    down the suspects to just you,
[19:07] ---
    by having you be away from
    the scene the instant of the explosion.
[19:11] ---
    He managed this by giving him the driver
[19:16] ---
    just as you left for coffee.
[19:24] ---
    On top of that,
[19:25] ---
    to completely clear
    himself of suspicion,
[19:29] ---
    he stood nearby so that he
    would get caught in the explosion.
[19:35] ---
    Inspector.
[19:36] ---
    Think about where Minami-san was injured.
[19:39] ---
    Okubo-san received injuries
    to almost his entire body,
[19:43] ---
    yet he only received injuries
    outside his left elbow and leg.
[19:48] ---
    Why his left side?
[19:50] ---
    Why outside, and not inside?
[19:53] ---
    It's because moments
    before the explosion,
[19:55] ---
    he quickly covered his eyes
[19:58] ---
    with his left arm
    and hid behind a pillar.
[20:05] ---
    Minami-san.
[20:07] ---
    Today was the last chance
    you had to kill Director Tachibana,
[20:12] ---
    as he was about
    to move to New York.
[20:15] ---
    But wasn't using the driver only
    you could've had in the last two days
[20:22] ---
    as the murder weapon
    a bit careless on your part?
[20:27] ---
    I've always hated the director.
[20:31] ---
    The director who would
    never acknowledge my skill,
[20:34] ---
    and Manager Yasui, who never
    did anything but suck up to him...
[20:39] ---
    So I plotted to kill the director
    and have him take the fall.
[20:45] ---
    And you didn't care if anyone
    else died in the explosion?!
[20:50] ---
    Had this golf range been crowded,
    even more people would've--
[20:54] ---
    I don't give a damn about that.
[21:02] ---
    Alright, let's go.
[21:11] ---
    --Do you think he really meant that?
    --Conan-kun!
[21:15] ---
    After all, he...
[21:17] ---
    Little boy. You should stay away,
    it's dangerous here.
[21:20] ---
    I think he said that so I wouldn't
    get caught in the explosion!
[21:25] ---
    Yeah.
[21:26] ---
    Who knows, he might've actually
    been a nice person who lost his way.
[21:36] ---
    Conan-kun!
[21:37] ---
    W-We're late for school!

    The following Sunday,

    the old man entered
    the golf tournament
[23:27] ---
    on the condition that
    he be on Okino Yoko's team.
[23:31] ---
    Yoko-chan was a bit unsteady,
    but it was a nice shot!
[23:35] ---
    Next up is the famous detective,
    Mori Kogoro-san!
[23:38] ---
    Mori-san! You can do it!
[23:42] ---
    Leave it to me!
[23:44] ---
    --Is Dad gonna be alright?
    --Of course not.
[23:53] ---
    Yikes...
