[00:24] Takagi
    Inspector, we believe he fell from there.
[00:28] Takagi
    The window on the fifth
    floor hallway was left open.
[00:33] Takagi
    The victim's footprints
    were on the sill, too.
[00:37] Megure
    That must be it, then.
[00:39] Kogoro
    The question is why he fell.
[00:42] Megure
    M-Mori-kun?
[00:44] Kogoro
    We spotted you and thought
    we could be helpful.
[00:48] Kogoro
    This kid did, that is.
SIGN    Kanbayashi Chosaku (38)
    Mystery Writer
[00:53] Conan
    Is this the author...?
[00:57] Takagi
    Kanbayashi Chosaku-san.
[01:00] Takagi
    He was renting an office on the
    fifth floor of this building.
[01:03] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi Chosaku? He's a modestly
    successful mystery writer, right?
[01:08] Seiko
    Not modestly!
SIGN    Kanbayashi Seiko (35)
    Kanbayashi's Wife
SIGN    Sugiyama Kiyoshi (58)
    Building Doorman
[01:10] Seiko
    My husband was first-rate!
[01:14] Kogoro
    What?
[01:15] Takagi
    That's his wife, Kanbayashi Seiko-san.
[01:19] Kogoro
    She already came to confirm it was him?
[01:22] Megure
    No. She apparently discovered the body.
[01:25] Conan
    The wife found her husband's body?
[01:28] Seiko
    Why, Darling?
[01:30] Seiko
    Why did this happen?
[01:37] Conan
    Solving crimes with sharp detective skills.
[01:39] Conan
    Love and cases never change.
[01:41] Conan
    Lovebirds are the closest of
    couples, but what are they hiding?
[01:45] Conan
    Always determining the one truth with the
    body of a child and the mind of an adult,
[01:48] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    The Lovebirds' Ruse
[03:31] Conan
    "The Lovebirds' Ruse!"
[03:39] Megure
    Could you explain the events leading
    up to you discovering the body?
[03:44] Seiko
    All right.
[03:45] Seiko
    This morning as I was going out, my
    husband asked me to do something.
[03:50] Kanbayashi
    Some work documents should
    arrive before noon.
[03:53] Kanbayashi
    Can you bring them to my office?
[03:55] Seiko
    What? But...
[03:57] Kanbayashi
    I know.
[03:58] Kanbayashi
    You can bring them after your show.
[04:02] Seiko
    I took the documents that were delivered
    and left home at exactly 12.
[04:08] Seiko
    I called to say I was on my way,
    but he didn't answer his phone.
[04:12] Seiko
    I thought he might be feeling unwell, so
    I had the doorman unlock the door for me.
[04:19] Sugiyama
    He's not here.
[04:22] Sugiyama
    I don't think he went out.
[04:37] Sugiyama
    She arrived around 12:20 and discovered
    the body immediately after that.
[04:44] Takagi
    His watch is broken and stopped at 11:50.
[04:48] Takagi
    He probably fell at this time.
[04:52] Megure
    Thirty minutes before he was found.
[04:55] Conan
    But why is he wearing gloves?
[05:03] Megure
    These gloves look new.
[05:06] Sugiyama
    And then there are the sneakers.
[05:10] Sugiyama
    I think he was wearing leather
    shoes when I saw him this morning.
[05:14] Megure
    What?
[05:16] Conan
    And what's this scrape on his face?
[05:20] Kogoro
    He probably scraped his face
    on the ground when he fell.
[05:24] Conan
    Then shouldn't there be
    grit stuck to his face?
[05:30] Megure
    Either way, the autopsy
    might reveal something.
[05:33] Megure
    And I'm sure an investigation of
    Kanbayashi's office will turn up something.
[05:40] Conan
    Oh? You look pretty young in this photo.
[05:44] Seiko
    Yes. We didn't have much
    money when we got married.
[05:49] Seiko
    We could barely afford those fox
    and raccoon dog stuffed animals.
[05:54] Seiko
    He had that photo out, huh?
[05:58] Megure
    Was Kanbayashi behaving
    strangely this morning?
[06:02] Sugiyama
    Not really.
[06:03] Sugiyama
    He only stepped out for five
    minutes to buy cigarettes.
[06:09] Sugiyama
    It's your anniversary?
[06:11] Kanbayashi
    Yes. I have my wife to thank
    for the man I am today.
[06:17] Kanbayashi
    I'd be too embarrassed to tell her, though.
[06:20] Kanbayashi
    I'll be right back.
[06:22] Seiko
    He said that?
[06:25] Seiko
    It's the opposite.
[06:26] Seiko
    Kanbayashi made me so happy.
[06:32] Megure
    It doesn't sound like there
    was trouble between them.
[06:36] Megure
    Based on the gloves and
    sneakers he was wearing,
[06:41] Megure
    your husband must have been working on
    something when he accidentally fell.
[06:48] Seiko
    So it was an accident.
[06:51] Conan
    But, Inspector Megure...
[06:54] Takagi
    There's nothing outside that window.
[06:58] Megure
    I see.
[06:59] Megure
    So he couldn't have been working.
[07:03] Kogoro
    Which means he was murdered.
[07:06] Both
    Huh?
[07:07] Kogoro
    Someone cornered Kanbayashi-san
    by the window and pushed him.
[07:12] Conan
    But, Mister...
[07:15] Sugiyama
    That's impossible.
[07:16] Kogoro
    What?
[07:17] Sugiyama
    It's the weekend.
[07:19] Sugiyama
    Only Kanbayashi-sensei was in the building.
[07:22] Sugiyama
    Even if someone snuck in, the only way in
    was the service entrance, and I was there.
[07:29] Kogoro
    Right, you little brat?
[07:34] Takagi
    Then that leaves suicide.
[07:37] Seiko
    It's plausible.
[07:40] Seiko
    He said his manuscript was due today.
[07:43] Seiko
    Perhaps he had writer's block
    and did it impulsively.
[07:46] Seiko
    He was suffering so much,
    but I didn't notice.
[07:51] Seiko
    It's my fault.
[07:53] Kogoro
    You do sometimes hear about writers
    doing that when they can't write.
[07:58] Conan
    But if he did it on impulse, wouldn't he have
    jumped from here instead of the hallway window?
[08:08] Ikejiri
    Is it true that he's dead, ma'am?
SIGN    Ikejiri Fumito (35)
    Editor
[08:13] Seiko
    Ikejiri-san?
[08:15] Ikejiri
    I came by to see how the manuscript was
    coming along, and they told me he's dead.
[08:21] Seiko
    This is Kanbayashi's editor.
[08:25] Ikejiri
    I know this is a bad time, but I need to
    figure out how to handle the situation,
[08:30] Ikejiri
    so I'd like to see the manuscript.
[08:35] Takagi
    Y-You...
[08:36] Megure
    It's his job.
[08:38] Megure
    And if it is suicide...
[08:40] Ikejiri
    Huh?
[08:41] Ikejiri
    I-It's finished.
[08:44] Conan
    You're right.
[08:46] Ikejiri
    But when I called this morning, he...
[08:49] Kanbayashi
    I'm stuck.
[08:51] Kanbayashi
    It'll be finished at four at the earliest.
[08:58] Conan
    But he finished by the time he died at noon.
[09:02] Seiko
    He was probably teasing you, Ikejiri-san.
[09:06] Ikejiri
    His final joke, huh?
[09:11] Megure
    It may not be suicide, then.
[09:14] Kogoro
    An accident, murder, and suicide.
[09:17] Kogoro
    None of them make any sense!
[09:21] Conan
    We're still missing something.
[09:24] Conan
    There must be some kind of clue in this room.
[09:30] Conan
    Envelopes?
[09:32] Conan
    These are documents.
[09:35] Conan
    Usually he had them sent here.
[09:38] Conan
    So why did he make an exception today?
[09:44] Kogoro
    What are you doing?
[09:48] Kogoro
    That's a receipt from a
    nearby convenience store.
[09:51] Conan
    Isn't it weird?
SIGN    Gloves 1 Pair MINI SEVEN 1 Carton
[09:53] Conan
    He bought gloves and a carton
    of cigarettes this morning.
[09:58] Conan
    Which means somewhere in here...
[10:03] Conan
    Look, I found the cigarettes!
[10:06] Conan
    But Kanbayashi-san went
    out to buy some, right?
[10:10] Conan
    Ten minutes before he fell.
[10:13] Kogoro
    It certainly is strange...
[10:17] Seiko
    He'd do that sometimes.
[10:19] Seiko
    He would get so focused on
    work, he'd forget that he had some.
[10:25] Kogoro
    You heard her.
[10:27] Ikejiri
    Well, I'm heading back to the office.
[10:30] Ikejiri
    We'll figure out how to handle this later.
[10:39] Ikejiri
    Excuse me, ma'am.
[10:49] Ikejiri
    I just thought it a bit strange.
[10:52] Conan
    He hadn't had the photo out before?
[10:55] Ikejiri
    As if.
[10:57] Ikejiri
    Their relationship was long over.
[11:01] Ikejiri
    His wife wanted a divorce, but the stingy
    writer didn't want to pay alimony,
[11:07] Ikejiri
    so he'd been avoiding the discussion.
[11:09] Conan
    Really?
[11:11] Ikejiri
    After growing tired of him, his wife
    became obsessed with Korean celebrities.
[11:17] Ikejiri
    Don't tell anyone, okay?
[11:19] Conan
    O-Okay.
[11:20] Kogoro
    Ma'am!
[11:22] Seiko
    Yes?
[11:23] Kogoro
    According to my sources, your
    relationship ended long ago.
[11:29] Kogoro
    I sense the key to solving the
    mystery of his fall lies there.
[11:35] Seiko
    It was rocky at times, but we
    patched up our relationship.
[11:42] Seiko
    I can't believe you're bringing that up now.
[11:45] Kogoro
    Uh, well...
[11:47] Megure
    Mori-kun.
[11:47] Takagi
    Mori-san.
[11:48] Kogoro
    Um, I...
[11:51] Kogoro
    Sheesh!
[11:56] Conan
    Something's not right.
[11:58] Conan
    Murder, suicide, an accident.
[12:01] Conan
    None of them make sense, and
    nothing seems quite right.
[12:08] Conan
    And why was Kanbayashi-san
    standing in this window?
[12:17] Conan
    There's a window directly opposite this one.
[12:19] Conan
    That's it!
[12:21] Conan
    That would explain everything.
[12:28] Conan
    It should be right around here.
[12:31] Conan
    The men's bathroom?
[12:38] Conan
    The windows...
[12:41] Conan
    It's about two meters across.
[12:43] Conan
    You could jump if you wanted to.
SIGN    Cleaning Checklist
[12:48] Conan
    The building is cleaned every
    day at 7:00, 11:00, and 5:00.
[12:52] Conan
    As long as you put it back
    before then, it's fine.
[12:55] Conan
    And regardless of when
    the documents arrived,
SIGN    Gathering of Korean stars!!
[12:59] Conan
    he knew his wife would
    leave home after noon.
[13:04] Conan
    It's a twenty minute walk from home to here.
[13:08] Conan
    And between them is... Beika Greens?
SIGN    Beika Greens
[13:14] Conan
    Even in the middle of the day,
    it's dark with the shadows of the trees.
[13:19] Conan
    But he underestimated the two
    meter distance and failed.
[13:25] Takagi
    What?
[13:26] Kogoro
    The wife is lying?
[13:28] Megure
    Lying about what?
[13:29] Chiba
    The wife said she left home
    at exactly 12:00, right?
[13:34] Chiba
    But a neighbor spotted her
    leaving earlier at 11:20!
[13:41] Kogoro
    Which means she could've
    been here by 11:40.
[13:46] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi fell at 11:50.
[13:50] Kogoro
    If she arrived at 11:40,
    she could have pushed him!
[13:55] Megure
    But even if she made it here, she couldn't
    have gone inside without the doorman noticing.
[14:00] Takagi
    I'm not sure we should suspect her.
[14:03] Kogoro
    She lied about a fact
    as critical as the time!
[14:06] Takagi
    Y-Yes, but...
[14:10] Conan
    What's going on?
[14:18] Conan
    The wife could have arrived at 11:40.
[14:23] Conan
    11:40? That's when Kanbayashi-san...
[14:28] Conan
    Could it be?
[14:31] Conan
    If that's true,
[14:33] Conan
    then the scrape on his face...
[14:40] Conan
    This is it!
[14:41] Takagi
    M-Mori-san!
[14:44] Kogoro
    She'll show her true colors
    if we question her!
[14:47] Megure
    But, Mori-kun...
[14:49] Conan
    Damn it, there's still one
    more thing I don't know!
[14:53] Seiko
    I did leave the house
    at 11:20 the first time.
[14:58] Kogoro
    The first time?
[15:00] Seiko
    I was in a hurry to deliver the
    documents and forgot to lock up.
[15:05] Seiko
    I came partway before turning back.
[15:11] Seiko
    The second time I left was at exactly noon.
[15:15] Chiba
    So that's what happened.
[15:17] Megure
    You heard her, Mori-kun.
[15:19] Kogoro
    Th-That's too convenient!
[15:26] Kogoro
    Let's get a con-beer-nient beer!
[15:29] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi Nagasaku's death is mysterious
    indeed, but I've finally solved it.
[15:37] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi Seiko-san, your
    husband nearly killed you.
[15:43] Seiko
    Me?!
[15:44] Megure
    What?!
[15:46] Kogoro
    His motive was probably
    because he met a new woman.
[15:51] Seiko
    No...
[15:52] Kogoro
    However, he would be the prime
    suspect if he simply killed you.
[15:56] Kogoro
    So Kanbayashi-san fabricated an alibi.
[16:00] Kogoro
    First he asked you to bring the
    documents to draw you here.
[16:06] Kogoro
    Normally he had documents delivered here,
    but he had them sent to the house instead.
[16:12] Kogoro
    At 11:40, Kanbayashi-san pretended
    to go out to buy cigarettes,
[16:19] Kogoro
    went into the neighboring building,
[16:21] Kogoro
    opened the window in the fifth floor men's
    bathroom directly opposite the window,
[16:27] Kogoro
    and returned as though nothing happened.
[16:30] Kogoro
    Then he planned to change into sneakers,
[16:33] Kogoro
    jump to the bathroom window,
    exit through the building,
[16:38] Kogoro
    wait for you at Beika Greens, and kill you.
[16:43] Kogoro
    After returning the way he came...
[16:47] Kanbayashi
    I finally finished.
[16:50] Kogoro
    He'd give Ikejiri the manuscript.
[16:54] Kogoro
    Once he closed the window in the
    men's bathroom, he would be finished.
[17:01] Kogoro
    Since it's the weekend, no
    one would use the bathroom.
[17:06] Kogoro
    After 11, cleaning services
    don't come until 5PM,
[17:11] Kogoro
    so no one would notice
    if he did it before then.
[17:14] Kogoro
    His wife's body would be discovered,
[17:17] Kogoro
    and her time of death would be
    determined to be around noon.
[17:22] Kogoro
    But the doorman would testify that
[17:25] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi-san was inside this
    building from morning until evening.
[17:30] Megure
    He left for about five minutes, but
    since it's not enough time to travel
[17:33] Megure
    to and back from the scene of the
    murder, he wouldn't be suspected.
[17:39] Takagi
    He finished the manuscript
    beforehand because he wouldn't
[17:42] Takagi
    have time to write after he
    went out to commit a murder.
[17:47] Seiko
    It was another tool to make us
    believe he wasn't trying to kill me.
[17:52] Chiba
    It was all a scheme to get
    away with killing his wife!
[17:57] Kogoro
    That's right.
[17:59] Kogoro
    But despite putting on gloves and sneakers,
[18:04] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi-san failed to jump across
    to the window like he planned.
[18:08] Megure
    He made a mistake and fell.
[18:12] Takagi
    Which means it was an accident.
[18:15] Seiko
    What an idiot. I'm an idiot, too.
[18:19] Seiko
    I had no idea I was such a
    bother that he wanted to kill me.
[18:25] Takagi
    Ma'am...
[18:27] Kogoro
    You can stop acting now, ma'am.
[18:31] Seiko
    What?
[18:31] Megure
    What do you mean, Mori-kun?
[18:34] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi-san didn't fail the
    jump because he made a mistake,
[18:39] Kogoro
    but because you blocked him!
[18:46] Kogoro
    After leaving your home at 11:20,
    you arrived here at 11:40.
[18:52] Kogoro
    You saw Kanbayashi behaving strangely then.
[18:57] Kogoro
    You were already suspicious because
    he sent the documents to your home,
[19:01] Kogoro
    so you followed Kanbayashi-san and
    realized what he was planning.
[19:11] Kogoro
    You used his plan against him.
[19:21] Kanbayashi
    There!
[19:38] Kogoro
    Which means that his fall was murder.
[19:43] Seiko
    I didn't...
[19:46] Kogoro
    Then you and the doorman
    discovered the body together.
[19:52] Kogoro
    Without a third party with you,
    suspicion would fall on you.
[19:56] Kogoro
    A wife benefits most from
    her husband's death.
[20:01] Kogoro
    She gets the insurance money.
[20:04] Seiko
    This is profoundly malicious conjecture.
[20:08] Kogoro
    I believe you'll find proof in the
    neighboring building's bathroom.
[20:15] Chiba
    We found Kanbayashi-san's eyebrow
    hairs in the deck brush.
[20:20] Takagi
    And this was on the floor.
[20:22] Takagi
    It's a woman's hair.
[20:25] Megure
    A DNA test should make things clear.
[20:31] Seiko
    My idiot husband had been
    trying to kill me for a long time.
[20:36] Seiko
    That's why I did the same...
[20:45] Seiko
    ...to him.
[20:47] Seiko
    I didn't think anyone would find out.
[20:52] Seiko
    I'd wanted to kill him for a long time.
[20:56] Seiko
    All I did was shove the brush
    in my idiot husband's face.
[21:02] Megure
    How dare you? You killed a man!
[21:05] Kogoro
    They're both to blame.
[21:08] Kogoro
    They both wanted to kill each other,
    but pretended to be happily married.
[21:13] Kogoro
    They were both trying to outfox the other.
[22:41] Kogoro
    Ma'am, will you tell me one thing?
[22:46] Kogoro
    Kanbayashi-san's plan failed because
    you left home forty minutes early.
[22:54] Kogoro
    Your beloved Korean stars were on TV.
[22:57] Kogoro
    Why didn't you wait until
    the end of the episode?
[23:02] Seiko
    Because, Mori-san, I came
    up with a good idea.
[23:07] Seiko
    A way to kill my idiot husband and
    make it look like an accident.
[23:18] Seiko
    I wanted to put it into
    action as soon as possible.
[23:22] Seiko
    You know what they say.
[23:24] Seiko
    Strike while the iron is hot!
[23:30] Both
    Hey, wait!
[23:32] Megure
    What's wrong with that woman?
[23:37] Conan
    She's terrifying.
