***SIGN*** Haido Central Hospital
**[00:00] Kogoro**
I can't believe she poisoned her own guest.
**[00:05] Takagi**
I wonder if this hospital is cursed.
**[00:10] All**
What?
**[00:10] Takagi**
There were rumors announcer
Mizunashi Rena was a patient here.
**[00:15] Takagi**
An injured man caused a panic trying
to force his way into a room.
**[00:18] Takagi**
There was a bomb scare, too.
**[00:21] Conan**
D-Detective Takagi!
**[00:23] Conan**
Shouldn't you go back to the station?
**[00:27] Takagi**
Oh, no!
**[00:28] Amuro**
You don't know anything about a man
named Kusuda Rikumichi, do you?
**[00:33] Takagi**
Kusuda Rikumichi?
**[00:36] Takagi**
Come to think of it, we found a damaged
vehicle a few days before the bomb scare.
**[00:42] Takagi**
It belonged to a Kusuda Rikumichi.
**[00:46] Amuro**
What?
**[00:48] Takagi**
It was a mysterious case.
**[00:50] Takagi**
There was blood all over the
inside of the damaged vehicle.
**[00:55] Takagi**
Some of the bloodstains were
less than a millimeter across.
**[00:58] Amuro**
* Bloodstains less than a millimeter*
* across from a high speed blood spray...*
**[00:58] Takagi**
According to forensics...
**[01:03] Amuro**
*A gun.*
**[01:20] Conan**
Propelled forward by the
years spent together.
**[01:22] Conan**
Charging full speed ahead
without slowing the pace.
**[01:24] Conan**
A mysterious case at Haido Park.
**[01:26] Conan**
A scarlet secret begins to unravel.
**[01:28] Conan**
Always determining the one truth with the
body of a child and the mind of an adult,
**[01:31] Conan**
his name is Detective Conan!
***SIGN*** Haido Elementary School
**[03:24] Woman**
Hello?
**[03:25] Woman**
Oh, Jodie. What's wrong?
**[03:28] Woman**
Did we say we'd go drinking today?
**[03:31] Jodie**
* Have you gotten used to your*
* elementary school teaching job?*
**[03:35] Woman**
Yeah. Everyone loves their beautiful
teacher who returned from abroad
***SIGN*** Shibuya Natsuko (28)
Elementary School Teacher
**[03:39] Natsuko**
is what I'd like to say.
**[03:41] Natsuko**
But it's a lot of hard work.
**[03:46] Natsuko**
I'm supposed to meet some parents after this.
**[03:50] Jodie**
*I see.*
**[03:51] Jodie**
*I guess you can't go drinking tonight.*
**[03:54] Natsuko**
Yeah, sorry.
**[03:56] Natsuko**
Anyway, why are you still in Japan?
**[04:00] Natsuko**
Your undercover investigation is over, right?
**[04:02] Jodie**
*Hey, I invited you out for drinks.*
**[04:05] Jodie**
*I've got my own reasons.*
**[04:08] Natsuko**
*Official secrets, right?*
**[04:11] Jodie**
That's right.
**[04:12] Jodie**
I'll call you later.
**[04:14] Camel**
Was that your friend?
**[04:16] Jodie**
Yes. She got involved in a case
while studying abroad in America.
**[04:23] Jodie**
And I saved her.
**[04:25] Jodie**
We've known each other since.
**[04:27] Camel**
Really?
**[04:28] Jodie**
She also taught me Japanese and helped
me go undercover as an English teacher.
**[04:38] Jodie**
I guess we're teacher friends.
**[04:41] Camel**
I see.
**[04:52] Woman**
So who are we waiting for?
**[04:55] Amuro**
Shibuya Natsuko, twenty-eight years old.
**[04:58] Amuro**
Elementary school teacher.
**[05:00] Woman**
Who is she?
**[05:03] Amuro**
My client and someone who might help
me fill in the last piece I'm looking for.
**[05:13] Woman**
And what piece is that?
**[05:20] Woman**
Did someone fall down the stairs?
**[05:47] Woman**
Let's go.
**[05:49] Woman**
We can't draw attention to—
**[05:53] Woman**
This woman...
**[05:54] Amuro**
Yes.
**[05:55] Amuro**
I think I'll complete the puzzle soon.
***SIGN*** The Scarlet Prologue
**[06:06] Conan**
"The Scarlet Prologue!"
***SIGN*** Teitan Elementary School
**[06:15] Genta**
Hey, Conan!
**[06:16] Genta**
Let's play soccer on the way home!
**[06:20] Genta**
Huh?
**[06:21] Genta**
He's not here!
**[06:22] Mitsuhiko**
He rushed out when the bell rang.
**[06:27] Ayumi**
Over there!
**[06:31] Mitsuhiko**
Is someone picking him up?
**[06:34] Ayumi**
It must be the man from
the detective agency.
**[06:36] Haibara**
No.
**[06:37] All**
What?
**[06:38] Haibara**
That's an expensive foreign car.
**[06:41] Haibara**
That old man wouldn't rent that kind of car.
**[06:44] Ayumi**
Oh, right.
**[06:46] Mitsuhiko**
Could it be Jodie-sensei's car, then?
**[06:50] Mitsuhiko**
It wouldn't be strange for a
foreigner to drive a foreign car.
**[06:53] Haibara**
Come on.
**[06:54] Haibara**
Forget about that mystery nut.
**[06:56] Haibara**
Let's go home.
**[06:58] Haibara**
The professor said he was buying cake.
**[07:03] Haibara**
It looks like Edogawa-kun doesn't want any.
**[07:05] Haibara**
Let's enjoy it without him.
**[07:08] All**
Let's go!
**[07:13] Haibara**
*Yes...*
**[07:14] Haibara**
*That's the FBI car I saw before.*
**[07:22] Haibara**
* Your priority is retrieving*
* the transmitter and bug.*
**[07:27] Haibara**
* If you hesitate out of curiosity*
* or some sense of righteousness,*
**[07:31] Haibara**
*you'll lose everything!*
**[07:33] Conan**
*Yeah, I know.*
**[07:38] Haibara**
*But since he didn't tell me anything,*
**[07:43] Haibara**
*something must be happening.*
**[07:46] Haibara**
*Something is happening out of my sight.*
**[07:50] Ayumi**
Ai-chan!
**[07:52] Mitsuhiko**
What are you doing?
**[07:54] Genta**
I'm hungry! Hurry up!
**[07:57] Haibara**
I'll be right there.
**[08:01] Ayumi**
What kind of cake is it?
**[08:02] Mitsuhiko**
Let's eat it together.
**[08:05] Haibara**
Yes.
**[08:09] Jodie**
Kusuda Rikumichi? Oh.
**[08:12] Jodie**
The organization spy who infiltrated
Mizunashi Rena's hospital.
**[08:16] Jodie**
He ran when his cover was blown.
**[08:19] Jodie**
Once Shu cornered him,
he shot himself in the head.
**[08:25] Jodie**
Right?
**[08:26] Conan**
Yeah.
**[08:27] Jodie**
What about him?
**[08:29] Conan**
Tell the FBI to keep it a secret.
**[08:35] Conan**
The organization's man Bourbon...
**[08:37] Conan**
Amuro Toru is conducting an investigation.
**[08:40] Jodie**
Of course!
**[08:42] Jodie**
Did you make me pick you
up just to tell me that?
**[08:46] Conan**
Yeah. Cell phones are easily tapped.
**[08:50] Conan**
Besides, there's something else.
**[08:55] Conan**
Maybe...
**[08:58] Conan**
Maybe Amuro is...
**[09:01] Boy**
*Three, two, one...*
**[09:04] Boy**
*Zero!*
**[09:12] Jodie**
Ah, sorry.
**[09:13] Jodie**
I'm going to pull over so I can answer this.
**[09:19] Jodie**
What? Natsuko's gravely injured?
**[09:22] Jodie**
She fell down the stairs at Haido Park?
**[09:25] Jodie**
Which hospital?
**[09:27] Jodie**
I'll head right there.
**[09:28] Takagi**
* Actually, we'd like you to*
* come to the crime scene.*
**[09:32] Jodie**
What? The crime scene?
**[09:36] Takagi**
Yes. We're at the scene where she fell.
**[09:40] Takagi**
The history on her phone
we found in the park
**[09:43] Takagi**
showed she spoke with
you before eight last night.
**[09:47] Jodie**
*That's right.*
**[09:48] Jodie**
I called her then.
**[09:52] Jodie**
Wait. Did she not fall by accident?
**[09:56] Takagi**
No.
**[09:57] Takagi**
According to the person who reported
it from a nearby public phone,
**[10:01] Takagi**
someone pushed her.
**[10:04] Takagi**
*Hello? Jodie-san?*
**[10:08] Jodie**
A-Anyway, I'll be right there.
**[10:11] Jodie**
I'll meet you at the stairs at Haido Park.
**[10:20] Camel**
Jodie-san.
**[10:21] Jodie**
Camel! What are you doing here?
**[10:25] Camel**
You called her from my
phone last night, right?
**[10:29] Camel**
Yours was dead.
**[10:32] Camel**
That's why the police contacted me first.
**[10:37] Takagi**
Her history showed you called
one hour before it was reported.
**[10:41] Jodie**
What?
**[10:42] Jodie**
One hour before?
**[10:43] Jodie**
Natsuko didn't fall today?
**[10:46] Megure**
It happened at nine last night.
**[10:49] Megure**
She didn't have her wallet or phone on her.
**[10:52] Megure**
We couldn't identify her
until this afternoon.
**[10:55] Takagi**
But we knew she was a teacher.
**[10:58] Takagi**
We followed that lead and discovered
the victim was Shibuya Natsuko-san.
**[11:05] Takagi**
Later, we found her phone abandoned
inside the park and asked you to come.
**[11:12] Jodie**
How is Natsuko?
**[11:14] Takagi**
She dented her skull.
**[11:17] Takagi**
She made it through surgery,
but she's still unconscious.
**[11:21] Jodie**
I see...
**[11:23] Camel**
Natsuko-san was probably
attacked for her money
**[11:29] Camel**
on her way home from work,
and was pushed down the stairs.
**[11:33] Takagi**
Yes. We're investigating that possibility.
**[11:35] Conan**
Hey.
**[11:37] Conan**
How did you know she was a teacher?
**[11:40] Takagi**
Oh.
**[11:41] Takagi**
There were a bunch of answer
sheets inside her bag.
**[11:47] Takagi**
Wait, Conan-kun? What are you doing here?
**[11:50] Jodie**
W-We were just on a drive together.
**[11:53] Conan**
Were those answer sheets blank
without anything written on them?
**[11:58] Takagi**
Huh?
**[11:58] Takagi**
Actually, they were all filled in and graded.
**[12:04] Takagi**
I think some had even scored 100 points
and had flower circles on them.
**[12:09] Conan**
I don't think she was attacked here, then.
**[12:13] All**
What?
**[12:14] Conan**
Kobayashi-sensei said you're not supposed
to take home completed answer sheets.
**[12:21] Conan**
The school doesn't want anyone's
personal information getting out.
**[12:25] Conan**
Some teachers grade tests at home.
**[12:30] Conan**
But if they'd already been graded,
she couldn't have been doing that.
**[12:34] Jodie**
Which means she was attacked at school?
**[12:38] Camel**
I see!
**[12:39] Camel**
The culprit stuffed the papers
on her desk inside her bag
**[12:43] Camel**
to make it look like she was
attacked on her way home.
**[12:48] Camel**
They accidentally included the answer sheets.
**[12:54] Megure**
If her skull was dented, it's possible
she was struck by a blunt object.
**[12:59] Takagi**
Yes.
**[13:00] Takagi**
They must've thought they could trick
us by pushing her down the stairs.
**[13:06] Jodie**
Come to think of it, Natsuko said she was
meeting a student's parents that night.
**[13:11] Megure**
What? Is that true?
**[13:14] Jodie**
Yes.
**[13:15] Megure**
Look through her call
history and e-mails again.
**[13:20] Megure**
Anyone who had plans to meet her
could be important to this case.
**[13:25] Takagi**
Yes, sir!
***SIGN*** Haido Elementary School
**[13:34] Man**
Inspector Megure, we found it!
**[13:36] Man**
There's a luminol reaction
on the victim's desk.
**[13:41] Megure**
So this is where it happened.
**[13:44] Megure**
What about the weapon?
**[13:45] Man**
We haven't found it.
**[13:47] Man**
The culprit probably took it with them.
**[13:52] Megure**
Last night, did any other teachers stay late?
**[13:58] Teacher**
Y-Yes.
**[13:59] Teacher**
But, Sugamoto-sensei, didn't you say
you'd give Shibuya-sensei a ride?
**[14:05] Teacher**
Oh, well...
***SIGN*** Sugamoto Yoshiharu (30)
Elementary School Teacher
**[14:08] Sugamoto**
It's dangerous for a woman to
walk around at night by herself.
**[14:11] Sugamoto**
But when I came to the faculty office...
**[14:14] Sugamoto**
...because I thought she'd be
ready to go, she wasn't here.
**[14:18] Jodie**
What time was that?
**[14:20] Sugamoto**
After 8:30, I think.
**[14:22] Sugamoto**
I asked security to lock up and went home.
**[14:26] Jodie**
What were you doing before then?
**[14:29] Sugamoto**
I was organizing the gym's equipment closet.
**[14:32] Sugamoto**
I'm a PE teacher.
**[14:34] Conan**
Hey.
**[14:36] Conan**
Sugamoto-sensei, do you have a car?
**[14:39] Sugamoto**
Huh? Yeah, I do.
**[14:42] Sugamoto**
Its engine is acting up,
so I came by train today.
**[14:46] Sugamoto**
Which class are you in?
I don't recognize you.
**[14:51] Jodie**
H-He's from another school.
**[14:53] Jodie**
He's here on a field trip. Right?
**[14:56] Conan**
Y-Yeah.
**[15:00] Takagi**
Inspector Megure.
**[15:02] Takagi**
I brought them.
**[15:04] Takagi**
These are the people who were
supposed to meet Shibuya-sensei.
**[15:11] Megure**
There's more than one of you?!
**[15:13] Man**
What's going on?
**[15:14] Man**
The police barged into my office!
**[15:17] Woman**
I don't know what's going on,
but I need to get ready for dinner.
**[15:21] Woman**
Let's hurry this up.
**[15:24] Megure**
Last night a woman was struck here,
**[15:27] Megure**
transported to Haido Park,
and pushed down the stairs.
**[15:32] Megure**
It was the woman you were supposed to
meet last night, Shibuya Natsuko-sensei.
**[15:38] Both**
What?!
**[15:39] Woman**
Is she all right?
**[15:41] Takagi**
Fortunately, the surgery was a success,
but she's still unconscious.
**[15:45] Man**
W-Wait! Do you suspect us?
**[15:50] Woman**
You must be joking!
**[15:52] Megure**
In any case, will you tell us why you
were meeting with Shibuya-sensei?
**[16:00] Megure**
We'll start with you, ma'am.
**[16:02] Woman**
I just came to tell Shibuya-sensei
to stop seducing my son.
**[16:10] Jodie**
Seduce?
***SIGN*** Ueno Akiyo (39)
Child's Guardian
**[16:11] Ueno**
I don't care if she's from America,
her skirts are too short.
**[16:17] Ueno**
It's no wonder the children love
her and her skimpy clothes.
**[16:22] Jodie**
But Natsuko's fashion is pretty plain.
**[16:26] Ueno**
He says he's going to marry Shibuya-sensei!
**[16:30] Ueno**
I had to do something!
**[16:33] Ueno**
Your skirt seems rather short as well.
**[16:38] Jodie**
I'm not a teacher.
**[16:40] Conan**
*You're a former teacher.*
**[16:42] Camel**
What time did you meet Shibuya-sensei?
**[16:48] Ueno**
After eight.
**[16:50] Megure**
What did she say?
**[16:52] Ueno**
She smiled and said she'd be careful.
**[16:56] Ueno**
I left after about ten minutes.
**[16:59] Ueno**
I can't leave my son alone for long.
**[17:04] Man**
I came to complain to that
irresponsible teacher.
***SIGN*** Kandachi Fujiyuki (41)
Child's Guardian
**[17:08] Kandachi**
She marked my daughter's answer wrong
because her handwriting was poor!
**[17:12] Kandachi**
I came before nine,
**[17:14] Kandachi**
but the lights were out and the gate
was closed, so I didn't see her.
**[17:20] Takagi**
Was it really because of her handwriting?
**[17:24] Kandachi**
Yeah. All her wrong answers
were actually right.
**[17:28] Kandachi**
She should've scored 100 with a flower
circle, but she gave her a 60 instead.
**[17:33] Jodie**
Natsuko wouldn't do something so unfair.
**[17:37] Kandachi**
Want me to show you my
daughter's answer sheet, then?
**[17:41] Kandachi**
And she even hired some weird detective.
**[17:46] Megure**
A weird detective?
**[17:47] Takagi**
Is that right?
**[17:49] Kandachi**
Yeah. I followed her so I could talk to her
at home when he grabbed me by the collar.
**[17:57] Amuro**
I didn't have a choice.
**[18:01] Amuro**
She asked me to investigate her stalker.
**[18:05] Conan**
*Bourbon?!*
**[18:08] Amuro**
Sorry I'm late, Inspector.
**[18:10] Megure**
You called him?
**[18:12] Takagi**
His number was in her call history.
**[18:18] Amuro**
Are you two English teachers or something?
**[18:24] Takagi**
Actually, they're FBI agents.
**[18:28] Takagi**
They're helping us with the investigation.
**[18:31] Amuro**
Really?
**[18:33] Amuro**
FBI, huh?
**[18:36] Amuro**
The USA's Federal Bureau of Investigation.
**[18:41] Amuro**
I see you guys in movies
and TV shows all the time.
**[18:44] Amuro**
Their investigators show up at crime
scenes to steal all the credit,
**[18:51] Amuro**
smugly interfere with the investigation,
offend the local police, and annoy the viewer.
**[18:56] Camel**
What?!
**[18:56] Amuro**
I'm not talking about you.
**[19:01] Amuro**
That's just the story I happened to see.
**[19:03] Camel**
*This kid...*
**[19:05] Camel**
*These guys tried to...*
**[19:11] Jodie**
Camel.
**[19:13] Jodie**
Calm down.
**[19:14] Jodie**
We don't want him to know the FBI knows
he's a member of the Organization.
**[19:18] Camel**
Yeah...
**[19:20] Megure**
What?!
**[19:21] Megure**
You're the one who reported
Shibuya Natsuko-san's incident?
**[19:27] Amuro**
Yes. In addition to investigating her
stalker, she asked me to serve as her bodyguard.
**[19:34] Amuro**
I meant to watch her take her
usual shortcut through the park.
**[19:40] Amuro**
I wasn't expecting her to fall down the steps.
**[19:44] Takagi**
Y-You said someone pushed
her in your report.
**[19:49] Megure**
D-Did you see who did it?
**[19:52] Amuro**
Yes, I did.
**[19:55] Amuro**
The silhouette of the culprit standing at the
top of the steps, looking down at Shibuya-san.
**[20:01] Amuro**
Unfortunately, I saw them from inside
my car, and they fled immediately.
**[20:07] Amuro**
I didn't see their face.
**[20:09] Megure**
Just their silhouette, huh?
**[20:11] Amuro**
Yes.
**[20:12] Amuro**
Later I heard the sound of a car
starting from above the stairs.
**[20:17] Amuro**
They probably put the unconscious
victim in their car,
**[20:20] Amuro**
brought her to the parking space
in the park near the stairs,
**[20:24] Amuro**
confirmed there was no one watching,
and pushed her down the stairs.
**[20:30] Amuro**
They probably couldn't see my car at the
bottom since it was hidden by the trees.
**[20:38] Takagi**
Haido Park has unrestricted access.
**[20:40] Takagi**
Hardly anyone's there after nine at night.
**[20:44] Takagi**
Amuro-san's probably right.
**[20:48] Megure**
But why didn't you wait at
the scene until we arrived?
**[20:55] Megure**
The investigation would've
gone more smoothly.
**[20:58] Amuro**
I'm sorry.
**[21:00] Amuro**
I had another client in my car.
**[21:03] Amuro**
They didn't want to get involved.
**[21:07] Jodie**
So you left Natsuko injured at the steps?
**[21:11] Amuro**
Of course I only left after
the ambulance arrived.
**[21:17] Amuro**
Is there a problem?
**[21:20] Camel**
Jodie-san.
**[21:21] Takagi**
N-Now, now!
**[21:23] Takagi**
Investigator Jodie and
Shibuya-sensei were friends.
**[21:28] Amuro**
I see.
**[21:29] Amuro**
She was your friend?
**[21:31] Amuro**
Then it could be the work of
someone who resented the FBI.
**[21:38] Jodie**
Listen, you...
**[21:39] Conan**
More importantly...
**[21:42] Conan**
Let's try questioning everyone again.
**[21:45] Conan**
So far those three are the only ones who met
or planned to meet Shibuya-sensei last night.
**[21:55] Jodie**
