    Detective Conan Episode 788 “The Mystery
    Sinking in the Midsummer Pool (Part 2)”
[00:00] ---
    
[00:01] Conan
    Sera Masumi invited Ran, Sonoko, and I
    to visit her at the hotel she's living at.
[00:07] Conan
    We decided to hang out at the pool,
    but the daughter of the hotel's owner,
[00:12] Conan
    Nagami-ojosama, kicked out the other
    guests to look for the necklace she lost.
SIGN    Oiso Nagami (31)
    President's Daughter
[00:21] Conan
    After lunch, we returned to the pool and
    discovered Nagami-ojosama was missing.
[00:26] Conan
    Then...
[00:28] Boy A
    Hey, what's that?
[00:30] Boy A
    Th-There's something in
    the middle of the pool!
[00:34] Boy B
    What?
[00:35] Boy B
    Is... Is that a person?
[00:38] All
    What?
[00:46] Sera
    Nagami...
[00:48] Conan
    ...Ojosama?
[00:50] Sera
    But didn't Nagami-san say
    her fiancé Samaki-san...
SIGN    Oiso Hamaka (28)
    Nagami's Half-Sister
SIGN    Samaki Raito (30)
    President's Secretary
[00:56] Sera
    ...and sister Hamaka-san were a couple?
[00:59] Sera
    She said the hotel manager was
    letting them use the hotel to meet.
[01:04] Samaki
    I-It's a misunderstanding.
[01:05] Hamaka
    My sister was overthinking things.
[01:09] Samaki
    Her birthday was coming up.
[01:12] Hamaka
    We were planning to celebrate in the
    suite since she loves this hotel.
[01:19] Toyoshima
    We discussed decorations and food.
SIGN    Toyoshima Ensaku
    (56) Hotel Manager
[01:21] Toyoshima
    Since it was a surprise, we
    didn't tell Nagami-ojosama.
[01:27] Hamaka
    Because we were meeting in that room, she
    got the wrong idea and said those things.
[01:33] Toyoshima
    She really did like that room, so
    I'm not surprised she was angry.
[01:41] Megure
    That much?
[01:42] Hamaka
    Yes. She's even kicked out guests with
    a reservation to stay in that room.
[01:48] Samaki
    So we had no motive to kill her!
[01:53] Hamaka
    We were going to celebrate her birthday!
[01:56] Toyoshima
    If you doubt us, ask the hotel staff.
[01:59] Toyoshima
    We discussed the party
    decorations with them.
[02:05] Takagi
    We'll be confirming that later.
[02:08] Megure
    First I'd like to hear what you were
    doing after you left Nagami-san alone.
[02:21] Conan
    Propelled forward by the
    years spent together.
[02:22] Conan
    Charging full speed ahead
    without slowing the pace.
[02:25] Conan
    Someone says something odd by the pool.
[02:27] Conan
    The truth comes rising to the surface.
[02:29] Conan
    Always determining the one truth with the
    body of a child and the mind of an adult,
[02:32] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!

SIGN    The Mystery Sinking in the Midsummer Pool, Part Two!
SIGN    Reception
[04:23] Receptionist A
    Yes.
[04:24] Receptionist A
    Only the staff entered the pool
    after we were ordered to close it.
[04:29] Receptionist B
    The manager, Hamaka-ojosama, secretary
    Samaki-san, and those two bellboys.
[04:37] Receptionist A
    Before Nagami-ojosama was left
    alone, we let those girls through.
[04:42] Sonoko
    We forgot something.
[04:45] Conan
    We just wanted to see what was going on.
[04:48] Megure
    After Nagami-san said she'd search alone,
    who was the first to return here?
[04:55] Receptionist A
    I believe it was Manager Toyoshima.
[05:00] Receptionist A
    He said he wanted to check on Nagami-ojosama.
[05:04] Takagi
    Do you know when that was?
[05:06] Receptionist A
    After 12 PM, I think.
[05:08] Receptionist A
    She had just received an e-mail.
[05:12] Receptionist B
    Oh, right. Let's see...
[05:15] Receptionist B
    That was 12:05.
[05:17] Megure
    What was she doing then?
[05:19] Toyoshima
    She was looking for her necklace.
[05:23] Toyoshima
    It took her a while to notice I was there.
[05:27] Toyoshima
    But when she noticed, she said that
    I was in the way, so I quickly left.
[05:33] Megure
    I see.
[05:35] Takagi
    What about after the manager left?
[05:38] Receptionist A
    Well...
[05:39] Receptionist B
    The next person was Samaki-san.
[05:43] Megure
    I see.
[05:45] Samaki
    She was taking a while.
[05:48] Samaki
    I was going to tell her to
    let someone else do it.
[05:53] Samaki
    But I didn't see her in or near the pool.
[05:58] Samaki
    I thought she might be in the
    bathroom, so I waited by the pool.
[06:03] Samaki
    She showed no signs of returning, so I left.
[06:07] Megure
    Do you know when you left?
[06:09] Samaki
    No.
[06:11] Receptionist A
    We don't know, either.
[06:13] Receptionist B
    We don't keep notes.
[06:16] Receptionist A
    But Hamaka-ojosama, who arrived
    when he left, left at 12:54.
[06:23] Receptionist A
    She asked us the time as she was leaving.
[06:27] Megure
    Why?
[06:29] Hamaka
    I had a 1 PM reservation
    for lunch at this hotel.
[06:33] Hamaka
    Samaki-san asked me to check
    the bathroom and changing room.
[06:39] Hamaka
    She wasn't in either, though.
[06:42] Hamaka
    She wasn't at the pool,
    either, so I panicked.
[06:46] Hamaka
    I couldn't trust my phone's clock,
    so I asked to check the time.
[06:51] Takagai
    By the way, where are the
    bathroom and changing room?
[06:54] Sonoko
    Over here.
[06:57] Sonoko
    The changing room and showers are
    between reception and the pool.
[07:01] Sonoko
    The bathroom's back there.
[07:04] Megure
    You could hide a body here.
[07:08] Takagi
    Yes. The two receptionists
    can't see back here, either.
[07:13] Megure
    What happened next?
[07:16] Receptionist A
    We called the manager and Samaki-san.
[07:19] Receptionist B
    We called the bellboys, too, and
    they split up to look for her.
[07:23] Megure
    Where was Nagami-san?
[07:25] Toyoshima
    She wasn't in the pool.
[07:28] Hamaka
    We searched showers and lockers, too.
[07:31] Samaki
    We even searched the men's
    rooms while calling for her.
[07:37] Samaki
    We couldn't find her after
    an hour of searching,
[07:40] Samaki
    so we asked the receptionists if
    they really didn't see her leave.
[07:45] Samaki
    That's when they came.
[07:47] Samaki
    While we were explaining the situation,
    the bellboys saw her body in the pool.
[07:54] Megure
    I see.
[07:56] Conan
    By why did you come back to search the pool?
[08:00] Sera
    She wasn't there when you
    looked together, right?
[08:03] Boy A
    I guess I had a bad feeling.
[08:06] Boy B
    I thought I heard a strange
    noise coming from the pool.
[08:11] Boy B
    It sounded like some big bubbles.
[08:25] Conan
    I knew it.
[08:26] Conan
    The drain's grate is screwed in place.
[08:29] Sera
    Look, Conan-kun.
[08:31] Sera
    There's a hook stuck in the
    wall directly above the drain.
[08:35] Sera
    It's in the exact center
    of the pool wall, too.
[08:40] Police A
    Hey! What are you doing?!
[08:42] Sera
    I'm sure of it.
[08:44] Conan
    That's who did it.
[08:49] Megure
    In summary,
[08:51] Megure
    the victim Oiso Nagami-san said she'd search
    for the necklace she lost at the pool alone.
[08:57] Megure
    After kicking the three of you out, at 12:05,
[09:03] Megure
    the manager Toyoshima-san
    came to check on Nagami-san.
[09:08] Megure
    She said he was in the
    way and made him leave.
[09:10] Megure
    Next, when the secretary Samaki-san came,
    he didn't see Nagami-san in the pool.
[09:17] Megure
    Hamaka-san arrived as Samaki-san left,
[09:20] Megure
    and he told her to check the
    changing room and bathroom.
[09:24] Megure
    She confirmed she wasn't there at 12:54.
[09:29] Megure
    Later, the three of you and the two bellboys
    split up to search but couldn't find her.
[09:38] Megure
    Ten minutes after that,
[09:40] Megure
    the two bellboys returned to the pool
    and found Nagami-san in the water.
[09:48] Megure
    Are those the correct times
    and sequence of events?
[09:51] Receptionist A
    Ah, yes.
[09:52] Receptionist B
    I think so.
[09:54] Megure
    Nagami-san died between noon and 1 PM.
[09:59] Megure
    During that time, only you three
    entered and left the pool area.
[10:04] Megure
    One of you must have done it.
[10:08] Megure
    But if the body was in
    the pool the whole time,
[10:12] Megure
    then someone would have found
    it while you split up to search.
[10:16] Megure
    Furthermore, it's hard to
    imagine someone put the body
[10:22] Megure
    in the middle of the pool unnoticed
    while you were searching.
[10:28] Megure
    This is an impossible crime.
[10:30] Megure
    Right, Takagi-kun?
[10:32] Megure
    Don't you agree?
[10:34] Megure
    Huh? Takagi-kun?
[10:37] Ran
    Detective Takagi headed to the pool
    after talking to Conan-kun and Sera-san.
[10:44] Megure
    What?
[10:46] Sonoko
    While you were in the bathroom, he
    was carrying around a big aquarium.
[10:50] Ran
    He said it was for an experiment.
[10:52] Megure
    What is he doing?
[10:56] Sonoko
    Not Sera-san. Sera-chan!
[10:59] Ran
    Right.
[11:01] Sonoko
    Also, he said we should all
    come see the experiment.
[11:06] Ran
    Apparently it will expose the murderer.
[11:17] Megure
    Hey! Takagi-kun!
[11:21] Megure
    He's not here.
[11:25] Megure
    And why is there water in the pool?
[11:29] Police A
    We finished investigating, so we thought
    we'd try Takagi-san's experiment.
[11:34] Megure
    What experiment?
[11:37] Police A
    It's...
[11:39] Sera
    Don't give it away.
[11:42] Megure
    I don't know what you're up to, but...
[11:44] Megure
    Hey, Takagi-kun!
[11:46] Megure
    Come out and explain yourself.
[11:49] Megure
    Hey! Takagi!
[11:52] Megure
    Sheesh.
[11:54] Megure
    Where is he?
[11:56] Conan
    Detective Takagi's here.
[11:58] Megure
    What?
[11:59] Conan
    In the pool.
[12:00] Megure
    What?
[12:04] Megure
    H-He's not there.
[12:06] Sonoko
    Where is he?
[12:08] Ran
    Do you see him, Conan-kun?
[12:10] Conan
    I can't see him right now, either.
[12:14] Conan
    But if you cut the fishing
    line attached to this hook...
[12:21] Megure
    A-An aquarium?
[12:25] All
    D-Detective Takagi?
[12:28] Takagi
    Could you see me?
[12:31] Megure
    No, but why?
[12:33] Sera
    Because the light was reflected.
[12:35] Megure
    What?
[12:36] Sera
    Both water and air are clear, but water
    has a different refractive index.
[12:42] Sera
    When light passes from the highly refractive
    water to the less refractive air,
[12:48] Sera
    if you look at the boundary between
    the water and air head on,
[12:53] Sera
    all the light is reflected like a mirror,
    and you can't see objects on the other side.
[13:01] Conan
    Why don't we try it?
[13:07] Conan
    You can see my ten yen coin
    inside the aquarium, right?
[13:13] Ran
    Yeah...
[13:14] Conan
    But if you turn a cup upside down and put
    it over the coin while there's air inside...
[13:22] All
    I-It disappeared!
[13:23] Ran
    That's amazing, Conan-kun.
[13:25] Conan
    It's just a science experiment.
[13:27] Conan
    You probably learned
    about it in grade school.
[13:31] Ran
    Really?
[13:32] Sonoko
    They teach this complicated stuff
    to first year grade school students?
[13:37] Sera
    Detective Takagi used the same trick.
[13:39] Sera
    Because he was inside an upside
    down aquarium filled with air,
[13:43] Sera
    we couldn't see him in the pool.
[13:47] Megure
    Oh?
[13:48] Megure
    But couldn't you see him from directly above?
[13:52] Sera
    Yeah.
[13:53] Sera
    If you view the boundary between
    the air and water at a low angle,
[13:58] Sera
    it doesn't reflect the light.
[14:00] Sera
    But this is a pool.
[14:01] Sera
    You can't look from directly above.
[14:04] Megure
    You're right.
[14:06] Sera
    After drowning Nagami-san, who was
    searching for her necklace alone,
[14:12] Sera
    the culprit placed an aquarium
    over her body and secured it
[14:18] Sera
    using a fishing line passed through
    the drains on both sides of the pool.
[14:25] Sera
    Then they tilted the aquarium,
    slipped their hand in,
[14:29] Sera
    and released the air from Nagami-san's
    tank to fill the aquarium.
[14:36] Sera
    Fishing line is elastic, so it could
    handle the aquarium being tilted.
[14:43] Megure
    But how did they drown her?
[14:47] Sera
    It was simple.
[14:48] Sera
    They said something to her so
    she would let her guard down,
[14:53] Sera
    grabbed her neck from behind, removed
    her mouthpiece, and held her under.
[15:00] Sera
    With the tank and weights,
    Nagami-san sank easily.
[15:04] Sera
    No one could hear her scream underwater.
[15:08] Sera
    Right, hotel manager Toyoshima Ensaku-san?
[15:14] Sera
    Did you lower her guard
    by pointing at the pool
[15:19] Sera
    by your feet and saying
    her necklace was there?
[15:26] Megure
    But can you really secure an aquarium
    with a single fishing line?
[15:31] Megure
    Wasn't it full of air?
[15:34] Sera
    If you make four grooves and set the
    line in them, it won't float easily.
[15:43] Sera
    And if you attach the end of the line to a
    hook attached near the surface of the pool,
[15:50] Sera
    even if you're not in the water, you can cut the
    line, make the aquarium float, and reveal the body.
[15:58] Sera
    Just like Conan-kun did.
[16:02] Sera
    Toyoshima-san drowned Nagami-san
    when he came to check on her,
[16:09] Sera
    sank her body and hid it using
    the trick we just described.
[16:14] Sera
    When everyone finished searching, he
    cut the line, and revealed the body.
[16:20] Sonoko
    But the aquarium made a pretty
    big noise when it floated up.
[16:26] Sera
    He shouted something as he was doing it.
[16:29] Sera
    Like, “Where are you, Nagami-ojosama?”
[16:34] Sera
    Everyone else looking for
    her was shouting, too.
[16:38] Sera
    The sound was barely audible.
[16:41] Hamaka
    But the aquarium was broken.
[16:44] Samaki
    Not in the middle of the pool
    near her body, but by the edge.
[16:49] Sonoko
    Come to think of it, when did he move it?
[16:52] Ran
    It had to have been when they pulled
    Nagami-san's body out of the pool.
[16:57] Ran
    But the only thing the manager
    was carrying was the tank.
[17:02] Conan
    Maybe he stuck his foot in the aquarium
    and dragged it along the bottom.
[17:08] Sonoko
    What?
[17:09] Conan
    After bringing it to the edge, he struck
    it with the tank and shattered it.
[17:15] Conan
    Everyone else was watching her body,
[17:19] Conan
    and it would have been barely
    audible in the water.
[17:22] Sonoko
    But the manager hurt himself
    on the broken glass.
[17:28] Sonoko
    Would he have done that on purpose?
[17:30] Conan
    I think so.
[17:32] Conan
    No one would think the man who
    hurt himself would do that.
[17:37] Conan
    But if the police were going
    to find the aquarium anyway,
[17:41] Conan
    I'd smash it so they wouldn't know its shape.
[17:46] Sonoko
    You really are a tricky little kid.
[17:48] Sonoko
    You won't grow up into a moral adult.
[17:51] Conan
    I was just imagining if I had done it...
[17:55] Conan
    Is that really the problem here?
[17:58] Megure
    Do you have proof?
[18:01] Sera
    Yeah, the fishing line.
[18:03] Sera
    When he cut it, he had to quickly reel in the
    line attached to the drain on the other side.
[18:11] Sera
    Manager Toyoshima's fingerprints
    should be all over it.
[18:16] Ran
    But isn't fishing line really thin?
[18:20] Sera
    Maybe individual lines.
[18:22] Sera
    But he probably gathered it
    together while reeling them in,
[18:26] Sera
    so his fingerprints should
    match up to a few places.
[18:30] Sera
    You can find that, right, forensics?
[18:33] Police A
    Of course.
[18:35] Samaki
    B-But he had no motive to kill her.
[18:39] Hamaka
    That's right.
[18:40] Hamaka
    We discussed celebrating
    her birthday together.
[18:46] Toyoshima
    I didn't want to celebrate,
    especially not in that suite.
[18:51] Both
    What?
[18:52] Toyoshima
    I had a much younger sister.
[18:56] Toyoshima
    She reserved the room with her husband
    because they wanted just once to stay there.
[19:04] Toyoshima
    They were celebrating their
    son's third birthday.
[19:09] Toyoshima
    The room has a good view,
[19:11] Toyoshima
    and that day's fireworks display would
    have been visible from the balcony.
[19:16] Toyoshima
    But suddenly,
[19:18] Toyoshima
    Nagami-ojosama said she wanted to view the
    fireworks from that room with her friends.
[19:24] Toyoshima
    My sister's family had to
    move to another hotel.
[19:29] Toyoshima
    On the way there, they got in
    an accident, and they all died.
[19:34] Ran
    No...
[19:37] Sonoko
    So you resented her for that?
[19:40] Toyoshima
    For that? Of course not.
[19:43] Toyoshima
    That day, she didn't stay in that room.
[19:48] Toyoshima
    Do you know why?
[19:51] Toyoshima
    Because her friend's car she was taking
    to the hotel caused an accident.
[19:58] Toyoshima
    Yes. That woman was riding in the
    car that killed my sister's family.
[20:09] Takagi
    B-But how did you find out?
[20:14] Toyoshima
    She called me that day.
[20:18] Toyoshima
    She was riding in her friend's
    car when it caused an accident,
[20:22] Toyoshima
    but she didn't want to get involved.
[20:24] Toyoshima
    She asked me to pretend she had been
    in the suite since that afternoon.
[20:32] Toyoshima
    Since then, I'd been waiting
    for my opportunity for revenge.
[20:37] Toyoshima
    For her to come to this pool.
[20:40] Toyoshima
    Removing the necklace that would
    set my plan in motion was a gamble.
[20:48] Toyoshima
    But heaven was on my side.
[20:52] Toyoshima
    In the end, though, those young detectives
    exposed the murder I planned so carefully.
[21:00] Toyoshima
    It was all for nothing.
[22:30] Sera
    Sorry.
[22:31] Sera
    You came to see me, but
    I wasn't much of a host.
[22:36] Ran
    You couldn't help it. There was a murder.
[22:38] Sonoko
    It's just like what happened
    at the “Which Sweets SHOW.”
[22:44] Sonoko
    You make people appear and
    disappear out of thin air.
[22:48] Sonoko
    You're like a magician.
[22:50] Sera
    A magician?
[22:53] Sera
    I'm not the magician.
[22:55] Conan
    Huh?
[22:59] Sera
    You're a magician.
[23:07] Ran
    L-Listen...
[23:09] Ran
    Sera-chan, have we met before?
[23:12] Sonoko
    You just said Sera-chan!
[23:15] Ran
