***SIGN*** Nakai Funako (22)
College Student
**[00:03] Funako**
Yesterday a person disappeared!
**[00:09] Funako**
I would appreciate if you could look for him!
**[00:14] Kogoro**
You said that yesterday,
and I turned you down.
**[00:18] Kogoro**
I'm busy here.
**[00:20] Funako**
I don't mean to be rude, but you don't
look the slightest bit busy to me.
**[00:26] Kogoro**
What?
**[00:29] Funako**
I don't believe I'm getting
through to you, so once again!
***SIGN*** Crime Plan
**[00:34] Conan**
*A crime plan?*
**[00:36] Kogoro**
I told you, it's got to be fake.
**[00:39] Kogoro**
And it's not like you know the
guy who disappeared, right?
**[00:44] Funako**
Well, no...
**[00:46] Funako**
But I happened to see him on the street.
***SIGN*** The Mirage
**[00:48] Funako**
And he was the spitting
image of "The Mirage,"
**[00:52] Funako**
a character from a popular otome game!
**[00:57] Kogoro**
So you followed him and
secretly took his picture.
**[00:59] Funako**
Well, yes...
**[01:02] Kogoro**
Detectives don't help stalkers.
**[01:07] Kogoro**
No one cares about your mirage or whatever.
**[01:08] Kogoro**
Get out of here.
**[01:10] Funako**
He's "The Mirage."
**[01:15] Conan**
Why not go to the police?
**[01:17] Funako**
A good suggestion, but I cannot.
**[01:21] Funako**
I don't have the time.
**[01:23] Conan**
What?
**[01:24] Funako**
Which means this is the
birth of Detective Funachi!
**[01:32] Conan**
Solving crimes with sharp detective skills.
**[01:33] Conan**
Love and cases never change.
**[01:35] Conan**
An unusual client who calls herself Funachi.
**[01:38] Conan**
A simple request to find someone
turns into a surprising case.
**[01:40] Conan**
Always determining the one truth with the
body of a child and the mind of an adult,
**[01:43] Conan**
his name is Detective Conan!
***SIGN*** The Dreaming Girl's Confused Deduction

***SIGN*** Hikone
**[03:48] Funako**
Hikone-sama? Are you there?
**[03:51] Funako**
Hikone-sama?
**[03:53] Funako**
I can't go any farther...
**[03:57] Conan**
Is Hikone-san the name of
the guy who disappeared?
**[04:00] Funako**
Um...
**[04:02] Funako**
You're the boy from earlier.
**[04:04] Conan**
I'm Edogawa Conan.
**[04:06] Funako**
I hadn't introduced myself yet.
**[04:08] Funako**
My name is Nakai Funako.
**[04:11] Funako**
Call me Funachi.
**[04:14] Conan**
Funachi-san?
**[04:16] Funako**
No need for honorifics.
**[04:17] Funako**
I borrowed the name Funachi
from the heroine
**[04:20] Funako**
who adores "The Mirage"
in a famous otome game.
**[04:24] Funako**
I know there are copyright issues,
**[04:27] Funako**
but I hope you understand it comes from
a place of great respect and inspiration.
**[04:31] Funako**
Additionally, based on the game's
world view and setting...
**[04:35] Conan**
*I can't keep up.*
**[04:37] Conan**
And?
**[04:38] Funako**
What?
**[04:39] Conan**
Since when has Hikone-san been missing?
**[04:42] Funako**
When I came here the evening
of the day before yesterday,
**[04:44] Funako**
the door was unlocked and no one was inside.
**[04:48] Funako**
I believe it's been empty since then.
**[04:51] Conan**
*Two whole days, huh?*
**[04:53] Conan**
*What is this?*
**[04:55] Conan**
*The lock is broken. Recently, too.*
**[04:57] Funako**
I actually noticed that as well.
**[05:01] Funako**
Do you supposed it was a burglar?!
***SIGN*** Whoosh
**[05:03] Funako**
Boom!
***SIGN*** Gasp
**[05:05] Funako**
"Wh-What are you—"
**[05:07] Funako**
But after "The Mirage" was bound...
**[05:10] Funako**
Rather, Hikone-sama, where did he go?!
**[05:13] Conan**
Bound?
**[05:15] Funako**
Could it be?!
**[05:17] Funako**
Excuse me!
**[05:19] Funako**
He's not here.
**[05:21] Funako**
Not here.
**[05:22] Funako**
Not here!
**[05:23] Funako**
Not here!
**[05:24] Funako**
Which means...
**[05:26] Funako**
*Twinkle!*
**[05:29] Conan**
What are you doing?
**[05:32] Funako**
Assist me, Edogawa-sama!
**[05:34] Funako**
Hikone-sama may be buried under here!
**[05:37] Conan**
E-Edogawa-sama?
**[05:39] Conan**
Actually, since this is the second floor,
I don't think that's the slightest bit possible.
**[05:45] Funako**
What? Oh, that's right.
**[05:48] Funako**
There I go again.
**[05:51] Conan**
* She suffers from delusions.*
* Or mirages, as it were.*
**[05:56] Conan**
Stay here.
**[05:58] Funako**
What?
**[06:00] Conan**
Hello!
***SIGN*** Kiyose Takashi (20)
College Student
**[06:06] Kiyose**
What?
**[06:07] Conan**
Do you know where your
neighbor Hikone-san went?
**[06:11] Kiyose**
No. Is that my neighbor's name?
**[06:15] Conan**
Have you noticed anything unusual?
**[06:19] Kiyose**
I don't know.
***SIGN*** Nashida Akio (40)
Former Office Worker
**[06:24] Nashida**
Hey, shut up!
**[06:25] Nashida**
What's with all the noise out here?
**[06:27] Conan**
Sorry. I'm looking for
your neighbor, Hikone-san.
**[06:32] Nashida**
Hikone?
**[06:34] Nashida**
I don't know who you're talking about.
**[06:37] Funako**
Wait, wait!
**[06:53] Conan**
What's going on?
**[06:57] Funako**
You worried me for a moment there.
**[06:59] Funako**
Please shut the door, Edogawa-sama.
**[07:01] Conan**
Okay.
**[07:10] Conan**
*What was that?*
**[07:12] Conan**
*I thought I felt someone watching me.*
**[07:14] Funako**
Is something wrong?
**[07:16] Conan**
Uh, no.
**[07:18] Conan**
Funachi, is the reason you can't go to
the police related to that notebook?
**[07:24] Funako**
Could it be that you're a
detective as well, Edogawa-sama?
**[07:29] Conan**
Yeah. I'm always helping the old man.
**[07:33] Funako**
In other words, my concerns about
confidentiality have been eliminated.
**[07:38] Conan**
Yeah.
**[07:39] Funako**
Then take a look.
**[07:41] Conan**
Is this Hikone-san's?
**[07:44] Funako**
Yes. I believe it's handwritten.
**[07:47] Funako**
"No, Funachi! Anything but that!"
**[07:50] Funako**
So I chided myself, but out
of concern for Hikone-sama,
**[07:54] Funako**
I entered this place
yesterday and found that.
**[08:02] Conan**
What is this?
**[08:09] Conan**
* So once a month the jewels are*
* swapped out for more valuable ones.*
**[08:14] Conan**
*That's October 24.*
**[08:16] Conan**
That's today.
**[08:18] Funako**
Today is the day he plans
to commit that crime.
**[08:22] Conan**
He's detailed how the jewels
are brought in, too.
**[08:26] Conan**
Could this be an actual crime plan?
**[08:30] Funako**
However, I was unable to find a store
matching the one in the notebook.
**[08:36] Conan**
*Hold on...*
**[08:39] Funako**
Oh! Around now, Hikone-sama
**[08:43] Funako**
must be wearing a mask
and holding a pistol...
**[08:45] Funako**
"Scream and I'll kill you!"
**[08:47] Funako**
"Hand over the jewels!"
***SIGN*** Put the jewels in this bag!!
**[08:48] Funako**
...and threatening the employees!
**[08:52] Funako**
What should Funachi do?
**[08:56] Conan**
Doesn't this seem odd upon closer inspection?
**[08:59] Funako**
I am stunned.
**[09:02] Conan**
This and this are backwards, too.
**[09:06] Funako**
Backwards?
**[09:08] Conan**
The locks on the doors and
cases wouldn't work this way.
**[09:14] Conan**
That's it.
**[09:16] Conan**
Maybe the store's name is, too.
**[09:20] Conan**
Ishigami.
**[09:21] Funako**
I found it!
**[09:23] Funako**
And this location is only a
two or three minute walk away!
**[09:28] Conan**
Really?
**[09:29] Funako**
I knew you could do it, Edogawa-sama!
**[09:31] Funako**
That was some impressive deduction
and following of clues.
**[09:35] Funako**
But what shall we do?
**[09:37] Conan**
Huh?
**[09:38] Funako**
Should we call?
**[09:39] Funako**
Or shall we go there?
**[09:42] Funako**
But if we ran into Hikone-sama
as he's committing his robbery...
**[09:46] Funako**
Bang!
**[09:47] Funako**
Rustle, rustle!
**[09:49] Funako**
Please stop, Hikone-sama!
**[09:50] Conan**
*What is it? Something's not right.*
**[09:56] Conan**
*Is that...?*
***SIGN*** Becoming an Author How to Write Novels Guide to Novels
**[10:02] Conan**
Could it be?
**[10:09] Conan**
Found it.
**[10:13] Conan**
But the most vital thing is missing.
**[10:18] Conan**
No, it's here!
**[10:20] Funako**
Could it be?
***SIGN*** Tenbun Publishing
**[10:27] Conan**
Hello?
**[10:28] Phone**
* This is Tenbun Publishing's "Tenbun*
* Monthly" editorial department.*
**[10:32] Phone**
*Could you put Hikone Kazuma-san on the phone?*
**[10:34] Conan**
Um, he's out right now.
**[10:38] Phone**
*You must be his family.*
**[10:40] Phone**
* The novel "Crime Plan" he*
* brought in the other day*
**[10:44] Phone**
*was evaluated during an editorial meeting,*
**[10:46] Phone**
*and we've decided to publish it.*
**[10:49] Phone**
*Could you tell him to call me back?*
**[10:52] Funako**
The advent of the shocking truth!
**[10:55] Conan**
Got it. Bye.
**[10:58] Funako**
This means these are his mistakes,
**[11:01] Funako**
and that notebook contains the results
of his research for his writing.
**[11:05] Conan**
Yeah, I think so.
**[11:07] Funako**
In other words, this is just
one of my usual coincidences.
**[11:12] Funako**
My usual...
**[11:16] Funako**
Kaboom!
**[11:18] Funako**
And disappointment.
**[11:19] Funako**
Hikone-sama must have some imagination
for me to mistake this for reality!
**[11:24] Funako**
It would be no exaggeration
to call it godlike!
**[11:27] Conan**
I-I don't know about that...
**[11:30] Conan**
*And there are still too many questions.*
**[11:33] Conan**
* More than anything, Hikone-san himself*
* has been missing for two days.*

**[11:45] Man**
Make any noise, and I'll kill you!
**[11:48] Man**
Hand over the jewels.
**[12:01] Conan**
Could it be?
**[12:03] Funako**
Edogawa-sama?
**[12:05] Funako**
What do you mean? What could it be?
**[12:08] Funako**
N-No way! Could it really be?!
**[12:20] Conan**
Detective Takagi!
**[12:23] Takagi**
Conan-kun.
**[12:25] Conan**
Did someone steal the jewels?
**[12:26] Takagi**
Uh, well, yeah...
**[12:29] Conan**
New jewels were being
brought in today, right?
**[12:33] Conan**
A robber who entered the basement
boiler room through the sewer...
**[12:38] Conan**
Stole the jewels being brought in, right?
**[12:44] Takagi**
How do you know that?
**[12:48] Funako**
I knew it.
**[12:49] Funako**
What I feared has come to pass.
**[12:53] Funako**
Are the lies true, or is the truth a lie?
**[12:56] Funako**
I don't know what's happening anymore!
**[13:01] Takagi**
Wh-Who is she?
**[13:07] Takagi**
We just stationed officers in the
sewer and at all connected exits.
**[13:13] Conan**
That's exactly what the robber wants.
**[13:16] Takagi**
What?
**[13:19] Funako**
Make it look like he left the way
he came, but flee above ground.
**[13:24] Funako**
That's his plan.
**[13:25] Takagi**
His plan?
**[13:27] Conan**
Yeah.
**[13:29] Conan**
Look.
**[13:36] Takagi**
Th-This is...
**[13:38] Conan**
The gun is fake.
**[13:40] Conan**
That's part of his plan, too.
**[13:42] Conan**
Come to think of it...
**[13:44] Conan**
Funachi, let me see the notebook again.
**[13:46] Funako**
All right.
**[13:52] Conan**
This is it!
**[13:53] Conan**
"Make them believe I fled, eliminate
planner nearby, and return to everyday life."
**[14:01] Conan**
"This is the perfect crime."
**[14:03] Conan**
That's it.
**[14:05] Funako**
Is the true culprit someone else?
**[14:08] Takagi**
What?
**[14:08] Funako**
Oh, no! "The Mirage" is doomed!
**[14:14] Funako**
I won't let this beat me.
**[14:16] Funako**
Let's catch the true culprit, Edogawa-sama!
**[14:19] Conan**
Wait! Where are you going?!
**[14:21] Funako**
Where am I going?
**[14:23] Conan**
This way, Funachi!
**[14:24] Takagi**
Conan-kun?
**[14:26] Conan**
Detective Takagi, come with us!
**[14:28] Takagi**
What?
**[14:29] Takagi**
Got it!
**[14:38] Nashida**
What's this? Who the hell are you?
**[14:41] Takagi**
You're Nashida-san, right?
**[14:42] Takagi**
Do you have a minute to talk?
**[14:45] Nashida**
The police?
**[14:46] Nashida**
Wh-What am I being accused of?
**[14:48] Conan**
Funachi, why did the paper
fly into the air then?
**[14:53] Funako**
What? Oh...
**[14:55] Funako**
It's a mystery.
**[14:56] Funako**
A gust of wind suddenly
blew through the room.
**[14:59] Conan**
But Hikone-san's window was closed, right?
**[15:03] Conan**
That's why the paper didn't fly
when we first opened the door.
**[15:12] Funako**
Could it be?
**[15:21] Funako**
I found it!
**[15:22] Funako**
The wind must have blown through there!
**[15:29] Funako**
Nashida-sama, you were watching Hikone-sama
write his novel through that space.
**[15:37] Funako**
You set your sights on the computer here,
**[15:41] Funako**
broke the lock, entered
the room, and stole it.
**[15:44] Takagi**
What the? Is that true?
**[15:47] Nashida**
D-Don't be ridiculous!
**[15:48] Nashida**
You can search my apartment, then.
**[15:50] Funako**
If it's not in your apartment,
perhaps you pawned it.
**[15:55] Funako**
I believe there's a pawn shop nearby.
**[15:59] Funako**
Are you sure you don't have a pawn ticket
and cash in your pocket right now?
**[16:03] Funako**
Isn't that why you're in high spirits?
**[16:08] Funako**
You stole and read this crime plan, robbed
the jeweler, and killed Hikone-sama!
**[16:16] Nashida**
Wh-What? Stop joking around!
**[16:19] Takagi**
Tell us the truth, then.
**[16:22] Nashida**
I did steal the computer.
**[16:25] Nashida**
I pawned it, too.
**[16:27] Nashida**
But by the time I entered,
the lock was already broken!
**[16:30] Takagi**
Really?
**[16:31] Nashida**
I'm not lying!
**[16:33] Nashida**
I didn't steal the jewels. It's true!
**[16:37] Conan**
Funachi, was it the first time
the papers flew into the air
**[16:40] Conan**
when Nashida-san opened his door?
**[16:43] Funako**
What?
**[16:59] Funako**
There's one over here, too!
**[17:01] Conan**
*That's right.*
**[17:02] Conan**
* I sensed people watching*
* me from both sides then.*
**[17:07] Conan**
*And the true culprit is...*
**[17:24] Kiyose**
Wh-What do you want?
**[17:26] Funako**
Don't play dumb! You were watching.
**[17:29] Kiyose**
What?
**[17:30] Takagi**
Do you have a minute to talk, Kiyose-san?
**[17:34] Kiyose**
About what?
**[17:35] Funako**
If you look through that hole,
couldn't you see Hikone-sama's back,
**[17:39] Funako**
or rather, his computer screen?
**[17:41] Funako**
Did you not decide to rob the jeweler,
**[17:45] Funako**
break the lock and enter, read his
notebook, and put it into action?
**[17:49] Kiyose**
Don't be absurd!
**[17:50] Kiyose**
What proof do you have?
**[17:53] Conan**
Look at all this mud.
**[17:54] Conan**
You should have worn your
boots the whole time.
**[17:59] Funako**
I got it!
**[18:01] Funako**
If you had returned through the sewer,
**[18:03] Funako**
you wouldn't have gotten mud on you,
but you did because you ran above ground.
**[18:08] Takagi**
Above ground?
**[18:10] Funako**
Two parallel streets run
between here and the jeweler,
**[18:14] Funako**
but we didn't see Kiyose-sama
while traveling along one of them.
**[18:19] Funako**
I believe the other is still
muddy from yesterday's rain.
**[18:26] Conan**
What's this?
**[18:30] Takagi**
Is that...?
**[18:36] Takagi**
It matches.
**[18:37] Takagi**
It broke off into the hem of your
pants when you broke the lock.
**[18:42] Takagi**
Then there are the jewels.
**[18:44] Takagi**
I'll get a search warrant, and...
**[18:47] Conan**
They're probably there.
**[18:50] Funako**
Kiyose-sama, you didn't have
those coin locker keys earlier.
**[18:56] Takagi**
That's it. There was a station on the way.
**[18:59] Takagi**
He stored them in a coin locker there.
**[19:03] Kiyose**
I was fired from my job.
**[19:05] Kiyose**
Money... I wanted money!
**[19:09] Funako**
But that doesn't make it
acceptable to kill someone!
**[19:12] Kiyose**
Don't be stupid!
**[19:13] Kiyose**
I didn't kill anyone!
**[19:16] Funako**
Then where is Hikone-sama?
**[19:22] Hikone**
Who are you?
**[19:26] Funako**
No way!
**[19:27] Conan**
So he is okay.
**[19:29] Funako**
What?
**[19:31] Takagi**
Are you Hikone-san?
**[19:32] Hikone**
The police?
**[19:34] Funako**
How did you know he was all right?
**[19:35] Conan**
Because his room was clean.
**[19:39] Conan**
I couldn't imagine he was attacked here.
**[19:42] Conan**
If he was attacked outside,
they would have stolen his keys,
**[19:46] Conan**
so they wouldn't have
needed to break his lock.
**[19:49] Conan**
Which means...
**[19:50] Funako**
Typical Edogawa-sama!
**[19:52] Funako**
You truly are godlike! No, God himself!
**[19:56] Conan**
What?
**[21:22] Hikone**
Is that so?
**[21:24] Hikone**
Sorry for all the trouble I caused.
**[21:27] Takagi**
Anyway, where have you been for two days?
**[21:30] Hikone**
I was fed up with my lack of talent,
so I've been wandering around.
**[21:34] Hikone**
But I ran out of money,
so I had to come back here.
**[21:39] Hikone**
It's pathetic. I've had enough of my dream...
**[21:43] Hikone**
No, my fantasy of writing a novel.
**[21:46] Hikone**
I'm going back to the countryside.
**[21:48] Funako**
But that fantasy has become reality.
**[21:52] Funako**
Rather, that dream.
**[21:54] Hikone**
What?
**[21:54] Conan**
The publisher called.
**[21:57] Conan**
"Crime Plan" is going to be published.
**[22:01] Hikone**
Yeah, right.
**[22:04] Hikone**
Really?
**[22:05] ---**
Yup.
**[22:08] Hikone**
Wow.
**[22:09] Hikone**
All right!
**[22:11] Hikone**
Huh?
**[22:14] Hikone**
Aren't you Funachi-san?
**[22:19] Conan**
You know her?
**[22:21] Hikone**
I covered a game store a while ago.
**[22:26] Hikone**
She gave a far more detailed
explanation than the employees.
**[22:32] Conan**
So you were lying about spotting
Hikone-san in the street?
**[22:36] Funako**
Funachi...
**[22:37] Funako**
Rather, I simply believed he
couldn't possibly remember me,
**[22:41] Funako**
so I made the calm and
objective decision to...
**[22:45] Hikone**
Are you the one who saved me?
**[22:49] Hikone**
Are you a cop?
**[22:52] Funako**
Huh?
**[22:53] Hikone**
Or a detective?
**[22:55] Funako**
I...
**[22:57] Hikone**
Thank you!
**[22:59] Hikone**
Let me thank you by taking you out to eat.
**[23:01] Funako**
What?
**[23:02] Hikone**
Can I write about you in my next work?
**[23:04] Funako**
What?
**[23:05] Hikon**
Tell me more, Funachi.
**[23:07] Funako**
What?
**[23:09] Conan**
Could this be a happy
ending for you, Funachi?
**[23:13] Funako**
Th-This is unexpected.
**[23:15] Funako**
I'm sorry that I must reject you.
**[23:18] Funako**
But the 2D can never become 3D.
**[23:20] Funako**
"The Mirage" will never be real!
**[23:28] Hikone**
Wait, Funachi!
**[23:29] Hikone**
Funachi! Funachi!
**[23:32] Hikone**
Wait!
**[23:35] Kogoro**
So how did the case turn out?
**[23:37] Conan**
It was the birth of an otome game detective.
**[23:43] Funachi**
Funa!

Huh?
**[23:48] Komatsu**
What?
**[23:50] Komatsu**
Mixed up in a suicide?
**[23:52] Conan**
A stranger invited you out?
**[23:54] Komatsu**
They told me to be in front
of this building at eight.
**[23:57] Conan**
Detective Takagi said the
location they tried to drop him
**[24:00] Conan**
and the location he actually
fell were different.
**[24:04] Haibara**
You're thinking something
