**[00:00] ---**
**[00:10] Kogoro**
The balls were really flowing today!
**[00:13] Kogoro**
What a great haul!
**[00:15] Kogoro**
I'm so lucky!
**[00:17] Kogoro**
I think I'll surprise Ran for always making fun of me for playing pachinko!
**[00:24] Kogoro**
I'm home!
**[00:25] Kogoro**
The pachinko king has returned!
**[00:30] Kogoro**
Hey!
**[00:33] Kogoro**
A letter?
**[00:36] Kogoro**
What's this?
**[00:37] Kogoro**
"I'm going to the hospital."
**[00:39] Kogoro**
"At least turn your phone on."
**[00:42] Kogoro**
"Ran."
**[00:44] Kogoro**
My phone?
**[00:46] Kogoro**
Whoops! It was off...
**[00:50] Kogoro**
Thirty-four missed calls
and sixteen messages?
**[00:54] Kogoro**
Wh-What?!
**[00:57] Ran**
* Mom wasn't feeling well at work,*
* and she's about to go into surgery!*
**[01:01] Ran**
* We're are Haido Central*
* Hospital, so get here soon!*
**[01:04] Ran**
*Ran.*
**[01:08] Conan**
The hidden lines on the palm are the fuse.
**[01:09] Conan**
The deduction catches fire on the line to the heart.
**[01:11] Conan**
Running into Amuro at Central Hospital.
**[01:13] Conan**
An incident occurs while four ladies are having tea.
**[01:16] Conan**
Always determining the one truth with the body of a child and the mind of an adult,
**[01:19] Conan**
his name is Detective Conan!

**[03:02] Conan**
"The Tense Tea Party, Part One!"
**[03:12] Kogoro**
Eri!
***SIGN*** Haido Central Hospital
**[03:15] Kogoro**
Eri!
**[03:17] Kogoro**
Eri!
**[03:19] Kogoro**
Eri!
**[03:21] Kogoro**
Eri!
**[03:22] Kogoro**
Eri!
***SIGN*** Mori Eri-sama
**[03:25] Kogoro**
Eri!
**[03:29] Eri**
Why are you making so much noise?
**[03:32] Kogoro**
Wh-Why?
**[03:34] Kogoro**
You had surgery.
**[03:36] Eri**
It was just appendicitis.
**[03:38] Eri**
The surgery ended a while ago.
The anesthesia wore off, and I just woke up.
**[03:44] Kogoro**
It was just your appendix?
**[03:46] Ran**
It wasn't "just" her appendix!
**[03:47] Ran**
What were you doing with your phone off?
**[03:51] Eri**
I'm sure it was horses, mahjong, or pachinko.
**[03:54] Kogoro**
You idiot! I was working...
**[03:57] Conan**
Wasn't it pachinko?
**[03:58] Kogoro**
What?
**[03:59] Conan**
Your jacket has a weird
wrinkle near your butt.
**[04:04] Kogoro**
What?
**[04:05] Conan**
Doesn't that mean you were sitting
in a chair for a long time?
**[04:09] Kogoro**
No, I, uh...
**[04:12] Conan**
Also, your phone must have been off
**[04:15] Conan**
because you were
somewhere loud enough
**[04:17] Conan**
that you couldn't hear your phone ringing.
**[04:21] Conan**
You don't like to set your phone to vibrate
**[04:23] Conan**
because you think it's gross.
**[04:25] Conan**
And look. Between your shoelaces...
**[04:28] Conan**
You have a pachinko ball.
**[04:31] Conan**
You were definitely playing pachinko.
**[04:35] Ran**
That's amazing, Conan-kun.
**[04:38] Conan**
I-I happened to see a mystery
show just like this...
**[04:41] Eri**
I see.
**[04:43] Eri**
You were captivated by pachinko
while I was having an emergency.
**[04:47] Kogoro**
What?
**[04:48] Kogoro**
I-I just meant to go for a little while, but I was having such unusually good luck...
**[04:58] Kogoro**
Anyway, you should squeeze
one out so you can leave.
**[05:04] Kogoro**
Well, you know...
**[05:06] Kogoro**
When you have appendix troubles, they say
you can leave the hospital once you fart.
**[05:09] Eri**
Don't tell me you think you're being clever.
**[05:16] Kogoro**
I thought that was pretty
good, if I say so myself—
**[05:21] Eri**
Get out, you hack detective!
**[05:26] Kogoro**
Sheesh.
**[05:28] Kogoro**
I came because I was worried about her, and she's getting mad at me?
**[05:31] Conan**
*Of course she's mad.*
**[05:33] Amuro**
Huh?
**[05:36] Amuro**
Is that you, Mori-sensei?
**[05:39] Amuro**
What are you doing here?
**[05:42] Conan**
*Bourbon?*
**[05:43] Amuro**
Are you not feeling well?
**[05:45] Kogoro**
No, it's my wife.
**[05:49] Conan**
*Why?*
**[05:50] Conan**
* What's a member of the Black Organization*
* doing at Haido Central Hospital?*
**[05:55] Conan**
*Could it be?*
**[05:56] Conan**
*Could it be?*
**[05:58] Conan**
*Could it be?!*
**[05:59] Kogoro**
What are you doing here?
**[06:01] Amura**
I heard one of my friends was
hospitalized and came to see him,
**[06:06] Amura**
but he apparently disappeared.
**[06:09] Amuro**
The nurses told me you'd been here before,
**[06:14] Amuro**
so maybe you know.
**[06:15] Conan**
Huh?
**[06:17] Amuro**
A man named Kusuda Rikumichi.
**[06:20] Conan**
Who is that? I don't know him.
**[06:23] Amuro**
I was hoping he'd return
the money I lent him.
**[06:28] Amuro**
Are you sure you don't know him?
**[06:29] Conan**
Yup.
**[06:31] Amuro**
You're amazing.
**[06:33] Conan**
What?
**[06:36] Amuro**
Excuse me.
**[06:38] Amuro**
Do you know a patient
named Kusuda Rikumichi?
**[06:41] Woman**
Kusuda Rikumichi-san...
***SIGN*** Beppu Katsuki (41)
Visitor
**[06:44] Woman**
I'm not sure.
**[06:45] Woman**
Who is he?
**[06:46] Woman**
How old is he?
**[06:47] Woman**
Do you have a photo of him?
***SIGN*** Happo Tokie (42)
Visitor
**[06:50] Amuro**
Oh, no. It's fine.
**[06:52] Woman**
Are you sure?
**[06:55] Amuro**
What about you, Mori-sensei?
**[06:58] Amuro**
What would you do if someone suddenly
asked if you knew someone by name?
**[07:01] Kogoro**
Well, I'd probably respond
like those ladies did.
**[07:06] Amuro**
That's right.
**[07:07] Amuro**
Most people don't have total
confidence in their own memory.
**[07:11] Amuro**
That's why before answering no,
**[07:14] Amuro**
they ask for information about
the person besides their name.
**[07:18] Amuro**
That's why you're amazing, Conan-kun.
**[07:22] Amuro**
You knew he was a stranger
based only on his name.
**[07:28] Kogoro**
You shouldn't take children so seriously.
**[07:31] Kogoro**
Plenty of people will say they don't recognize
someone by name even when they've met.
**[07:34] Kogoro**
Some people only know
others by a nickname.
**[07:36] Boy**
Three, two, one...
**[07:39] Boy**
Zero!
**[07:50] Boy**
Mom, the elevator's here.
**[07:52] Woman**
Okay, okay.
**[07:53] Boy**
Hurry up.
**[07:56] Kogoro**
Is something wrong?
**[07:58] Amuro**
No, nothing.
**[07:59] Amuro**
My nickname is "Zero," so I
thought someone was calling me.
**[08:03] Kogoro**
Why Zero? Isn't your name Toru?
**[08:06] Amuro**
Being transparent means
there's nothing there.
**[08:10] Amuro**
Hence Zero.
**[08:11] Amuro**
That's how children come up with nicknames.
**[08:20] Juri**
Kusuda Rikumichi?
**[08:22] Juri**
What about him?
**[08:24] Katsuki**
Someone in the hallway
just asked if I knew him.
**[08:28] Juri**
I don't know him, either.
***SIGN*** Kosaka Juri (42)
Patient
**[08:30] Juri**
I have a private room,
**[08:32] Juri**
and I don't have many opportunities
to speak with other patients.
**[08:36] Katsuki**
Anyway, great news!
**[08:38] Katsuki**
I hear you're getting out of
the hospital tomorrow.
**[08:40] Juri**
Yes.
**[08:41] Tokie**
You should've told us.
**[08:43] Tokie**
Doesn't that make our visit meaningless?
**[08:46] Reina**
Thanks for waiting!
**[08:47] Katsuki**
Reina!
***SIGN*** Suto Reina (42)
Visitor
**[08:49] Reina**
You two came?
**[08:51] Reina**
Let's have some tea.
**[08:53] Reina**
I got some hot water.
**[08:55] Juri**
Good idea.
**[08:56] Juri**
Could you get three teacups
from that cabinet over there?
**[09:01] Katsuki**
Is three enough?
**[09:02] Juri**
I have this cup I'm using.
**[09:06] Tokie**
Oh? Did you buy new cups?
**[09:09] Tokie**
Are you sure we should use these?
**[09:12] Juri**
Yes. They just look new because I clean
them with baking soda after each use.
**[09:18] Katsuki**
You're so precise.
**[09:20] Reina**
I even bought lemons.
**[09:24] Katsuki**
I see you still like lemons.
**[09:27] Tokie**
Do you mind if we use
the teabags we brought?
**[09:30] Juri**
Oh, but I already have so many.
**[09:34] Juri**
Why don't we compare a few teas?
**[09:38] Reina**
Great idea!
**[09:39] Katsuki**
Now this is a real ladies' party.
**[09:42] Tokie**
I suppose we can celebrate
your hospital discharge early.
**[09:45] Amuro**
Your wife suddenly developed appendicitis?
**[09:50] Kogoro**
Yeah. I shouldn't have worried.
**[09:53] Amuro**
But you shouldn't make light of appendicitis.
**[09:56] Kogoro**
I guess.
**[09:58] Conan**
*Could he be...?*
**[10:05] Katsuki**
These photos brings back memories!
**[10:07] Reina**
It's from the school festival!
**[10:09] Tokie**
Do you keep all your old
photos on your phone?
**[10:12] Jurii**
Only the ones I like.
**[10:15] Katsuki**
Wasn't it this school festival?
**[10:18] Katsuki**
When Reina got Sosaki-kun.
**[10:21] Reina**
Who's Sosaki-kun?
**[10:23] Tokie**
The most popular boy in our class.
**[10:26] Reina**
Who?
**[10:28] Juri**
Reina-san, you're so lucky.
**[10:33] Reina**
That's not true.
**[10:35] Reina**
The other day I nearly
lost a fortune in stocks.
**[10:40] Reina**
My husband's just a nouveau riche.
**[10:44] Reina**
I thought my son had a simple cold during
his exams, but it turned out to be the flu.
**[10:48] Reina**
Everything was ruined because
we didn't notice in time.
**[10:53] Reina**
I'm walking on a tightrope.
**[10:55] Reina**
One wrong step, and I'll be at rock bottom.
**[11:12] Kogoro**
Did that scream come from this room?
**[11:14] Amuro**
Yes.
**[11:17] Amuro**
Is something wrong?
**[11:23] Katsuki**
Reina?!
**[11:24] Tokie**
Reina!
**[11:33] Megure**
I can't believe someone was poisoned at the hospital.
**[11:36] Takagi**
By the time the doctor arrived, it was already too late.
**[11:41] Megure**
Who's the victim?
**[11:43] Takagi**
Haido resident Suto Reina,
**[11:46] Takagi**
Forty-two years old.
**[11:48] Takagi**
Today, she came to the hospital
**[11:51] Takagi**
with two of her high school
classmates to see Kosaka Juri,
**[11:57] Takagi**
another one of her classmates.
**[12:00] Takagi**
Suto-san arrived before her other two friends.
**[12:06] Megure**
The cause of death seems to be
asphyxiation caused by cyanide poison.
**[12:11] Takagi**
Yes.
**[12:12] Megure**
But why was she drinking tea at a hospital?
**[12:17] Takagi**
The patient Kosaka-san liked tea,
**[12:20] Takagi**
and they always held tea parties
when the four of them got together.
**[12:24] Megure**
I see.
**[12:26] Megure**
Then that means those three had the
opportunity to poison the victim.
**[12:34] Takagi**
But the victim drank several cups
of tea without any problem
**[12:38] Takagi**
when she suddenly seemed to be in pain.
**[12:40] Megure**
What?
**[12:41] Takagi**
It's possible she had been made to
swallow a poison capsule beforehand.
**[12:46] Megure**
Then it's possible the crime
wasn't committed here.
**[12:50] Conan**
Huh? Something's not right.
**[12:53] Both**
What?
**[12:54] Conan**
Look.
**[12:55] Conan**
The phone dropped over here
had lots of pictures on it,
**[13:00] Conan**
but the dead lady has
chopsticks in her right hand.
**[13:05] Kogoro**
Hey!
**[13:06] Kogoro**
You can't just touch things at a crime scene!
**[13:11] Megure**
What's strange about it, though?
**[13:13] Megure**
It's normal for people to hold
chopsticks in their right hand.
**[13:14] Conan**
But the cup that broke on the floor...
**[13:17] Conan**
Look closely.
**[13:20] Conan**
There's lipstick on the right side of the handle.
**[13:26] Conan**
Doesn't that mean she was
drinking tea with her left hand?
**[13:29] Megure**
Y-You're right...
**[13:32] Kogoro**
But why did the victim use her left hand?
**[13:35] Amuro**
It's because she had
something in her right hand.
**[13:41] Amuro**
For example, she may have been
looking at pictures on her phone.
**[13:46] Takagi**
Pictures on...
**[13:47] Megure**
...her phone?
**[13:49] Amuro**
Yes.
**[13:50] Amuro**
When people focus on one
thing, they ignore all others.
**[13:54] Amuro**
Even if the position of the cup
or its handle were changed,
**[13:58] Amuro**
she would pick it up without noticing.
**[14:00] Amuro**
The culprit must have used this tendency
to make the victim drink the poison
**[14:05] Amuro**
by switching their own
poisoned cup with the victim's.
**[14:10] Takagi**
Switching them?
**[14:15] Amuro**
Yes.
**[14:16] Amuro**
Putting poison in your own cup and
switching it with the victim's
**[14:21] Amuro**
is safer than directly
poisoning the victim's cup.
**[14:24] Amuro**
No one seemed to be using saucers,
**[14:27] Amuro**
so it would be easy to
adjust the cups' positions.
**[14:30] Amuro**
Isn't that right, Mori-sensei?
**[14:32] Kogoro**
Y-Yes, I suppose...
**[14:36] Megure**
*This detective again?*
**[14:37] Katsukii**
Th-There's no way we could switch them!
**[14:40] Juri**
Only her tea had lemon slices in it.
**[14:43] Tokie**
And look closely at the
color of everyone's tea.
**[14:47] Megure**
The color?
**[14:51] Megure**
All three are different.
**[14:54] Megure**
From right to left, there's
brown, blue, and yellow.
**[14:57] Takagi**
The victim was drinking a reddish tea.
**[15:02] Megure**
You couldn't get these teas confused.
**[15:06] Kogoro**
In any case, if someone poisoned the tea,
**[15:09] Kogoro**
there must be a container or
bag used to contain the poison.
**[15:14] Kogoro**
Maybe a thorough search of the
room will turn up something.
**[15:18] Megure**
Yes.
**[15:19] Megure**
The culprit may still have
it on their person, too.
**[15:23] Megure**
After we search the three of you,
**[15:29] Megure**
we'll question you separately
in another room.
**[15:33] Megure**
Is that all right?
**[15:39] Tokie**
Y-Yes...
**[15:42] Juri**
Yes, that's right.
**[15:44] Juri**
I made everyone's tea.
**[15:47] Juri**
After all, they were my guests.
**[15:52] Juri**
But all I did was put the tea
bags in cups and add water.
**[15:58] Megure**
Are you the only one who touched the cups?
**[16:01] Juri**
No.
**[16:03] Juri**
Happo-san and Beppu-san got
the cups out of the cupboard.
**[16:08] Megure**
In other words, it would make sense to
find everyone's fingerprints on the cups.
**[16:14] Takagi**
But why did you make so
many different kinds of tea?
**[16:18] Takagi**
Normally you only use one.
**[16:20] Juri**
Everyone knows I like herb tea, so
I had received quite a few as gifts.
**[16:27] Juri**
Happo-san brought some as well.
**[16:29] Juri**
I thought we could compare teas.
**[16:32] Kogoro**
I see.
**[16:34] Kogoro**
As the person who suggested you compare
teas and then made the tea,
**[16:40] Kogoro**
it was easiest for you to poison the tea.
**[16:45] Juri**
I-I didn't do anything like that!
**[16:48] Juri**
Everyone saw me pour the water,
**[16:51] Juri**
and Suto-san drank nearly half
her tea before she collapsed.
**[16:56] Juri**
Besides, as I told you before,
**[16:59] Juri**
she would have noticed immediately
**[17:03] Juri**
if I had switched my
poisoned cup with hers.
**[17:05] Megure**
What? Why?
**[17:08] Juri**
I was drinking a blue herb
tea called "Butterfly Tea."
**[17:13] Juri**
She would have noticed
if I had switched ours.
**[17:18] Juri**
Suto-san was drinking a red
herb tea called "Hibiscus Tea."
**[17:24] Amuro**
Do you know what the
other two were drinking?
**[17:29] Juri**
Yes.
**[17:30] Juri**
Happo-san was drinking a brown
herb tea called "Peppermint,"
**[17:34] Juri**
and Beppu-san was drinking a
yellow herb tea called "Chamomile."
**[17:41] Tokie**
Yes, I was drinking Peppermint.
**[17:45] Tokie**
I thought it would be green,
**[17:47] Tokie**
but I was disappointed
when I saw it was brown.
**[17:51] Tokie**
You know, because of the
color "peppermint green."
**[17:54] Tokie**
Juri, who knows more about
tea than I do, was giggling.
**[17:58] Kogoro**
But red and brown look pretty similar.
**[18:02] Kogoro**
It would've been easiest for you to switch—
**[18:04] Tokie**
They look nothing alike!
**[18:06] Tokie**
Mine was a common brown,
**[18:09] Tokie**
but Reina's was a garish red!
**[18:12] Tokie**
Surely she couldn't have confused these!
**[18:14] Amuro**
Did everyone choose their own tea?
**[18:18] Tokie**
Yes.
**[18:19] Tokie**
We lined them up on the table
and chose what we wanted.
**[18:22] Tokie**
Once we finished drinking,
**[18:25] Tokie**
we wiped the cups with
tissues for our next cup.
**[18:27] Tokie**
Juri had been drinking a
blue tea before we arrived.
**[18:32] Tokie**
She said it was healthy but bitter,
so she didn't recommend it.
**[18:36] Megure**
How were the four of you seated?
**[18:38] Tokie**
Let's see.
**[18:40] Tokie**
Clockwise it was me, Reina,
Katsuki, and Juri, I believe.
**[18:46] Tokie**
Katsuki and I looked from
either side of Reina
**[18:48] Tokie**
at the cell phone pictures
she was looking at.
**[18:53] Takagi**
Who suggested you look at the photos?
**[18:56] Tokie**
Katsuki!
**[18:58] Tokie**
Apparently Juri had shown
them to her before.
**[19:00] Tokie**
She wanted to show everyone
the next time we visited.
**[19:05] Tokie**
But Reina wouldn't let go of her phone.
**[19:08] Tokie**
Katsuki and I had to look over her shoulder.
**[19:13] Tokie**
She's always been that way.
**[19:16] Tokie**
She's possessive, self-absorbed,
and indifferent.
**[19:20] Tokie**
Her current husband is my ex-boyfriend.
**[19:23] Tokie**
She took him from me.
She took him from me!
**[19:26] Tokie**
Oh, but I didn't want to hurt her.
**[19:32] Megure**
I see...
**[19:34] Tokie**
Katsuki probably hated her more than I did.
**[19:39] Tokie**
She was upset about the heavy
loss she suffered because of Reina.
**[19:42] Megure**
Heavy loss?
**[19:46] Katsuki**
Of course I was upset.
**[19:48] Katsuki**
The stock Reina recommended
to me crashed!
**[19:51] Katsuki**
I nearly lost a fortune,
**[19:53] Katsuki**
but Reina made a killing selling
all her stock before it dropped!
**[19:58] Both**
Y-You have our sympathies...
**[20:01] Katsuki**
Now I'm drowning in debt.
**[20:04] Katsuki**
She could've told me if she
knew it was going to fall.
**[20:07] Megure**
Is that why you killed her?
**[20:10] Katsuki**
If that would've brought my money
back, I might have considered it!
**[20:17] Katsuki**
I don't want to speak ill of the dead,
**[20:21] Katsuki**
but I think Juri may have hated her, too.
**[20:25] Katsuki**
Juri's son failed his entrance
exam because of Reina.
**[20:31] Megure**
What do you mean, failed?
**[20:33] Katsuki**
Juri and Reina's children are classmates.
**[20:36] Katsuki**
They were trying to get into
the same middle school,
**[20:39] Katsuki**
but Reina's son, who came over to
study the day before the exam,
**[20:42] Katsuki**
was sick with the flu.
**[20:44] Katsuki**
Juri's son got it from him,
**[20:46] Katsuki**
and he didn't have time to worry
about the entrance exam anymore.
**[20:49] Both**
Y-You have our sympathies...
**[20:53] Katsuki**
Juri seemed so optimistic about
the results before the exam.
**[21:01] Kogoro**
In other words, everyone
had motive to kill the victim.
**[21:07] Megure**
Yes.
**[21:08] Katsuki**
We told you!
**[21:10] Katsuki**
None of us would ever do that.
**[21:13] Katsuki**
We all resented her,
**[21:16] Katsuki**
but Reina had always been that
way, so we just dealt with it.
**[21:23] Conan**
Hey.
**[21:25] Conan**
Did anyone leave the room once
you started drinking tea?
**[21:30] Katsuki**
Y-Yes.
**[21:31] Katsuki**
Tokie and I each left once separately.
**[21:35] Katsuki**
I went to the restroom.
**[21:37] Katsuki**
Tokie went to buy snacks for the tea.
**[21:40] Katsuki**
I believe Juri and Reina were
in the room the whole time.
**[21:43] Katsuki**
Reina went to get hot water,
**[21:47] Katsuki**
but that was before Tokie and I arrived.
**[21:54] Conan**
Ow!
**[21:54] Kogoro**
When did you—
**[21:57] Conan**
Do those tea cups belong to the hospital?
**[21:59] Katsuki**
Oh, those are Juri's cups.
**[22:02] Katsuki**
She said she keeps them sparkling
clean with baking soda.
**[22:09] Conan**
* That means she's the only one who*
* could have poisoned the victim's tea.*
**[22:16] Conan**
* The question is how did she make*
* the victim pick up the cup?*

**[23:45] Woman**
The lip of the teacup?
**[23:48] Woman**
Someone put poison there?
**[23:50] Conan**
The culprit must have been pretty bold.
**[23:53] All**
What?
**[23:54] Kogoro**
Well? Do you know?
**[23:58] Amuro**
Only one person could have applied poison
**[24:00] Amuro**
to their own cup and watched for an
opportunity to switch it with the victim's.
**[24:06] Amuro**
It's you.

No, I'm not.
