[00:10] Genta
The professor is surprisingly dependable.
[00:13] Mitsuhiko
I agree.
[00:14] Mitsuhiko
I had no idea he had such a rich friend.
[00:17] Mitsuhiko
I was surprised.
[00:19] Conan
Apparently the professor saved their
company with one of his inventions.
[00:23] Conan
That's why they did him this favor.
[00:26] Haibara
He makes inventions for
adults sometimes, does he?
[00:29] Ayumi
That's not a nice way to put it.
[00:32] Ayumi
Thanks to them, we get to practice soccer.
[00:35] Conan
His joke quizzes can be a
nuisance sometimes, though.
[00:38] Mitsuhiko
You said the place is the site of
a demolished mansion, right?
[00:42] Mitsuhiko
Won't it be hard to practice
if the ground is uneven?
[00:45] Mitsuhiko
It was pouring rain last night, too.
[00:48] Ayumi
I know.
[00:49] Ayumi
Lightning struck a few times
and the power went out.
[00:53] Ayumi
It was scary.
[00:58] Conan
Don't worry.
[00:59] Conan
We'll be fine even after it rained.
[01:01] Conan
Aside from the pool, the ground has been leveled.
[01:03] Conan
The drainage is good, too.
[01:06] Conan
Huh?
[01:09] Mitsuhiko
Is it some kind of case?
[01:11] Genta
Is the vacant lot past there?
[01:13] Conan
No, we're headed right over there.
[01:22] Conan
Solving crimes with sharp detective skills.
[01:24] Conan
Love and cases never change.
[01:26] Conan
A mysterious locked room with no ceiling.
[01:28] Conan
The Detective Boys hold a mystery battle!
[01:30] Conan
Always determining the one truth with the body of a child and the mind of an adult,
[01:33] Conan
his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN The Detective Boys' Locked Room Mystery Battle
[03:16] Conan
"The Detective Boys' Locked
Room Mystery Battle!"
[03:33] Ayumi
Professor!
[03:35] Agasa
What?
[03:35] Agasa
Oh, it's you kids.
[03:38] Haibara
Professor, what happened?
[03:40] Agasa
A man was found dead in
the pool of this empty lot.
[03:44] Genta
It's a murder?!
[03:47] Agasa
Earlier I came to unlock this
place so you kids could get inside.
[03:53] Agasa
There was a man floating in the pool.
[03:58] Mitsuhiko
There was a body in that pool?
[04:00] Ayumi
Scary.
[04:01] Genta
Does that make you the
first discoverer, Professor?
[04:04] Agasa
Yeah, I suppose it does.
[04:09] Agasa
We shouldn't get in their way.
[04:11] Agasa
Let's talk over there.
[04:14] Haibara
Was it a murder or an accident?
[04:17] Mitsuhiko
Was there water in the pool?
[04:19] Agasa
Yes, but it's shallow.
[04:21] Agasa
It's from last night's rain.
[04:24] Genta
How big is the pool?
[04:26] Agasa
It's for a family, so I think
it's about ten meters.
[04:30] Agasa
It's two courses wide.
[04:33] Conan
And this gate is the only
way to get to the pool?
[04:36] Agasa
Yeah.
[04:38] Agasa
But when I got here,
the gate was locked up tight.
[04:43] Haibara
Who has the keys?
[04:45] Agasa
According to my friend who lent
us this place, this is the only key.
[04:51] Ayumi
Then how did the dead person get in?
[04:55] Agasa
Inspector Megure is troubled
by that very question.
[05:00] Megure
How did it go?
[05:01] Chiba
The entrance has been closed for
the entirety of the past three days.
[05:06] Megure
But the victim died last night before midnight.
[05:12] Megure
Did you determine how he died?
[05:14] Chiba
We're waiting on the autopsy for the details,
[05:16] Chiba
but we believe he was killed by
a blow to the back of the head.
[05:20] Mitsuhiko
If it was a murder, then we don't
know how the culprit escaped.
[05:26] Agasa
Precisely.
[05:27] Mitsuhiko
That means this empty lot is a
locked room without a roof!
[05:32] Mitsuhiko
A locked room.
[05:34] Mitsuhiko
Just saying the word excites me!
[05:38] Conan
It's fine that you're excited,
but if this is a crime scene,
[05:41] Conan
we can't use it to practice soccer.
[05:45] Genta
But he died in the pool, right?!
[05:48] Genta
We're not going to use the pool!
[05:50] Conan
You think the police will see it that way?
[05:53] Megure
Conan-kun's right.
[05:55] Megure
Both the victim and culprit had to pass
through this lot to get to the crime scene.
[06:02] Megure
Until the case is solved,
it's closed to the public.
[06:05] Genta
What?! Seriously?!
[06:07] Mitsuhiko
But the game is next week!
[06:11] Ayumi
Isn't there anything you
can do, Inspector Megure?
[06:13] Megure
I'm sorry, but no.
[06:15] Megure
Though it'd be a different story if
you Detective Boys solved the case.
[06:23] Genta
The inspector is cold.
[06:25] Mitsuhiko
And the professor went through
the trouble of getting us this lot.
[06:28] Haibara
We don't have a choice.
[06:30] Ayumi
Then let's solve the case!
[06:33] Genta
What?
[06:34] Ayumi
Inspector Megure said the same thing!
[06:37] Conan
Whoa, now. He was joking.
[06:39] Ayumi
If we can figure out how the victim got
here, the inspector will consider it!
[06:44] Mitsuhiko
She's right. Let's do it.
[06:46] Genta
Let's do it!
[06:47] Ayumi
It's for soccer, Conan-kun!
[06:56] Genta
All right! Detective Boys, let's move!
[07:00] Genta
Wait, where are we going?
[07:04] Agasa
Here's a plan of the place
I got from my friend.
[07:07] Agasa
Will this help?
[07:08] Mitsuhiko
It sure will!
[07:12] Mitsuhiko
This gate was locked, right?
[07:15] Ayumi
It looks like there's a road on the other side of the fence behind the pool.
[07:20] Genta
There's an eight story building right there.
[07:24] Mitsuhiko
No, there's a narrow road
running between them.
[07:28] Mitsuhiko
It's not wide enough for a car, though.
[07:31] Ayumi
What if you climbed the fence from
that road and entered the lot?
[07:34] Haibara
That's impossible.
[07:35] Haibara
There's embedded glass and
barbed wire on top of the fence.
[07:39] Mitsuhiko
Hold on.
[07:40] Mitsuhiko
I see a crane over there.
[07:44] Agasa
It looks like the neighbors are getting
ready for some construction, too.
[07:47] Mitsuhiko
What if you used the crane, then?
[07:51] Mitsuhiko
You could hold onto the end and go over the wall.
[07:54] Agasa
That's not possible.
[07:55] Agasa
The crane arrived this morning.
[08:03] Ayumi
I know!
[08:04] Ayumi
The pool must have a drain, right?
[08:07] Ayumi
You could sneak in through there.
[08:11] Agasa
It wasn't large enough for a human.
[08:14] Conan
And it was covered, too.
[08:16] Agasa
On top of that, it was covered in garbage.
[08:20] Agasa
That's why the rain water built up inside.
[08:23] Genta
Then he must have come from the sky.
[08:26] Genta
If you flew here on a helicopter
and climbed down...
[08:29] Conan
Fly a helicopter at night?
[08:31] Conan
They're really loud.
[08:33] Man
Hey! What are you doing?!
[08:34] Woman
It's so noisy!
[08:36] Man
Stop making so much noise!
[08:40] Genta
Hang gliders don't make any noise.
[08:43] Haibara
You wouldn't be able to
land in such a small space.
[08:47] Mitsuhiko
What about RC helicopters?
[08:51] Mitsuhiko
About ten should do it.
[08:54] Haibara
Is it possible to fly that many RC copters?
[09:07] Ayumi
Wouldn't a hot air balloon work?
[09:13] Conan
Hot air balloons float using
air heated by the burners.
[09:17] Haibara
And it was pouring last night.
[09:22] Conan
There was lightning, too.
[09:29] Ayumi
Then use an airship!
[09:31] Genta
I like airships, too!
[09:33] Mitsuhiko
This isn't about what you like!
[09:36] Conan
That's fine, but aren't you forgetting
something important?
[09:41] Mitsuhiko
What? What is it?
[09:42] Haibara
Why did he go through so much
trouble to sneak into the pool?
[09:47] Haibara
Right?
[09:49] Conan
Well, yeah.
[09:56] Haibara
Maybe instead of entering the empty lot,
[09:59] Haibara
the victim was trying to sneak
into somewhere else.
[10:03] Haibara
You know the answer, but
you're only dropping hints.
[10:05] Genta
What? Sneak into where?
[10:09] Mitsuhiko
That's it! There was never a murderer!
[10:14] Agasa
I see.
[10:16] Agasa
He was killed by a blow to
the back of the head, so...
[10:20] Ayumi
I know! I figured it out!
[10:22] Genta
Damn it!
[10:24] Genta
I'm the only one who doesn't know!
[10:26] Haibara
Here's a hint: the pool was empty at first.
[10:31] Genta
What? That's obvious.
[10:33] Genta
The rain last night collected in the pool, so...
[10:40] Genta
That's it!
[10:41] Genta
The victim wasn't hit.
[10:43] Genta
He fell from the neighboring building and
hit his head on the bottom of the pool.
[10:54] Mitsuhiko
To put it grandly, the weapon was the Earth.
[11:00] Mitsuhiko
I read a mystery like that once.
[11:03] Genta
All right! We solved the problem.
[11:06] Genta
Let's tell Inspector Megure to
investigate the neighboring building.
[11:12] Megure
Unfortunately, Detective Boys, we
reached that conclusion as well.
[11:18] Genta
Yikes...
[11:19] Ayumi
You already investigated the building?
[11:22] Megure
We did.
[11:23] Megure
There's no mistaking we did, but...
[11:27] Chiba
Through the seventh floor,
all the windows are fixed shut.
[11:31] Genta
There's a bay window on the eighth floor!
[11:34] Mitsuhiko
He fell from that window!
[11:38] Megure
But that window doesn't open, either.
[11:41] All
What?
[11:57] Chiba
It won't budge.
[12:00] Woman
I heard some disquieting rumors,
so I had my window altered.
[12:05] Woman
Just yesterday, in fact.
[12:07] Chiba
We found that out during our canvassing.
[12:10] Ayumi
Then where did the dead person fall from?
[12:13] Haibara
What about the roof?
[12:14] Megure
That's not it, either.
[12:16] Megure
There's a high fence surrounding the roof, and it's made so no one can enter.
[12:23] Mitsuhiko
He couldn't have fallen into the pool from there, then.
[12:27] Ayumi
Yeah.
[12:28] Genta
I don't get it!
[12:30] Conan
Hold on.
[12:31] Conan
Were the disquieting rumors
the old woman heard...?
[12:36] Agasa
Oh, that?
[12:38] Agasa
It was on the news.
[12:40] Agasa
There's a robber breaking into buildings.
[12:42] Genta
I heard about that.
[12:44] Genta
They call him the Gecko, right?
[12:45] Conan
Yeah.
[12:47] Conan
If the man who fell was the Gecko,
then he fell not from a window,
[12:51] Conan
but from the building wall.
[12:54] Woman
They call him the Gecko because
he can climb any wall.
[12:58] Woman
I was so scared.
[13:01] Megure
Of course you were.
[13:03] Megure
How diligent of you to fix your window shut.
[13:06] Megure
We determined the identity of the man.
[13:09] Megure
He was the Gecko.
[13:11] Ayumi
Where did the Gecko
practice climbing any wall?
[13:16] Haibara
By rock climbing, probably.
[13:18] Genta
What? What about bolts?
[13:20] Conan
Rock climbing.
[13:22] Conan
Haven't you seen it on TV?
[13:24] Conan
It's a sport in which people climb
walls using bumps on the wall.
[13:27] Mitsuhiko
I know what that is.
[13:29] Mitsuhiko
They just made a training gym in Beika-cho.
[13:32] Genta
Oh, that?
[13:34] Genta
That thing like rock climbing where
they climb walls bare-handed?
[13:38] Megure
According to our investigation, the Gecko
made money working as a street artist.
[13:44] Genta
More words I don't know!
[13:46] Chiba
They're people who put on
performances in the city.
[13:49] Megure
The Gecko's trick was crossing from one
building to another on a tightrope.
[13:54] Genta
That's amazing!
[13:56] Megure
But while crossing between two
buildings on either side of a river,
[14:01] Megure
he made a terrible mistake.
[14:31] Megure
After that, he became possessed by fear and
was unable to perform the same trick again.
[14:37] Chiba
Unable to earn money,
[14:38] Chiba
the Gecko returned home and started
using his agility to break into buildings.
[14:42] Haibara
But even if he could climb the walls, he
couldn't break into the buildings, right?
[14:46] Megure
That's it.
[14:47] Megure
He must not have known the
window had been remodeled.
[14:51] Megure
He must have intended to
enter through the bay window.
[14:54] Conan
But if was a veteran thief,
wouldn't he have done his research?
[14:59] Chiba
I'm sure he did, but the window
was remodeled yesterday.
[15:04] Agasa
I see.
[15:05] Agasa
The window hadn't been altered
yet when he did his research.
[15:10] Agasa
He struggled his way up the building,
but when the window wouldn't open,
[15:14] Agasa
he was surprised and slipped.
[15:16] Haibara
Would a professional fall
over something so small?
[15:19] Agasa
Now that you mention it,
it does seem unnatural.
[15:22] Conan
But he actually did fall.
[15:25] Megure
It doesn't make sense to us, either.
[15:29] Megure
If we could explain that one
thing, the case would be solved.
[15:33] Megure
It's a shame.
[15:35] Chiba
I doubt you'll get to practice
tomorrow, either.
[15:43] Haibara
What should we do?
[15:44] Haibara
Are we giving up on playing soccer?
[15:46] All
What?
[15:47] Genta
Wh-Who said we're giving up?
[15:50] Mitsuhiko
That's right.
[15:51] Mitsuhiko
Let's rack our brains one more time.
[15:53] Ayumi
That's right!
[15:54] Ayumi
After all, we have a secret weapon!
[15:57] Ayumi
Right?
[15:58] Conan
What?
[16:00] Haibara
She means you.
[16:02] Conan
M-Me?
[16:07] Agasa
Witnesses?
[16:08] Conan
Yeah. Were there any witnesses?
[16:12] Agasa
Unfortunately, the power was
out in this area at that time.
[16:17] Mitsuhiko
The substation malfunctioned
because of the lightning.
[16:20] Ayumi
That must be why.
[16:22] Ayumi
The Gecko was struck by lightning and fell.
[16:29] Genta
That doesn't make sense.
[16:31] Genta
The lightning would have struck
the top of the building.
[16:35] Mitsuhiko
No, that.
[16:36] Ayumi
What?
[16:37] Genta
Huh? What?
[16:38] Mitsuhiko
There's a lightning rod right there.
[16:41] Mitsuhiko
There should be a ground wire running from the lightning rod to the ground.
[16:45] Mitsuhiko
And the Gecko...
[16:55] Agasa
But all three lightning strikes
struck the substation.
[17:02] Mitsuhiko
Really? That's too bad.
[17:04] Ayumi
Too bad.
[17:06] Genta
What?
[17:07] Genta
Hey, how about this?
[17:09] Genta
The Gecko reached the eighth floor.
[17:12] Mitsuhiko
Yes, and then?
[17:15] Genta
Then he looked into the
room through the window.
[17:18] Ayumi
A-And then?
[17:20] Genta
The old woman was there.
[17:25] Genta
And when she turned around...
[17:35] Mitsuhiko
That's not possible.
[17:38] Agasa
I've known her for a while,
but she's a quiet, kind woman.
[17:44] Agasa
Her legs are weak, so she uses a cane
and wheelchair to get around.
[17:48] Agasa
But she likes keeping tidy, so she's always
doing the laundry when she's got time.
SIGN Awaji Tomoe (72)
[17:52] Agasa
That's what Awaji is like.
[17:55] Genta
I see.
[17:56] Haibara
And the power was out.
[17:59] Haibara
He wouldn't have been able to see inside.
[18:02] Genta
Oh, right.
[18:04] Conan
Professor, you've been to the
old woman's room, right?
[18:07] Agasa
Sure. I'm the one who introduced
Inspector Megure to her, too.
[18:12] Woman
I'm sorry.
[18:14] Woman
The sofa and curtains are soaking wet.
[18:17] Woman
My hand shook when I grabbed
the hose while doing the laundry.
[18:22] Woman
No one wants to get older.
[18:25] Woman
You came all the way here, but
I have nowhere for you to sit.
[18:29] Megure
We're not staying long, so don't worry.
[18:33] Megure
So, Awaji-san, you didn't notice anything?
[18:38] Woman
No. I'm sorry I couldn't help you.
[18:43] Conan
Everything by the bay window was wet?
[18:48] Conan
But if the power was out, he wouldn't
have been able to see inside.
[18:53] Genta
Sure he could.
[18:54] Conan
What?
[18:55] Genta
If lightning struck, he'd be able to see.
[18:58] Agasa
The substation was struck three times.
[19:05] Conan
That's it. I got it.
[19:11] Megure
What? Did they figure something out?
[19:36] Agasa
Excuse the intrusion, Awaji-san.
[19:38] Agasa
Sorry about the sudden visit.
[19:41] Agasa
As you know, this morning
the body of a thief,
[19:46] Agasa
known as the Gecko, was found in the
pool of the demolished mansion next door.
[19:50] Agasa
At first we thought it was a murder,
[19:54] Agasa
but we determined he died when
something caused him to fall
[19:58] Agasa
while climbing this building to sneak in,
and hit his head on the floor of the pool.
[20:04] Agasa
So why did the Gecko fall?
[20:08] Agasa
True to his name, the Gecko committed
several thefts by climbing the wall
[20:14] Agasa
and breaking in through windows.
[20:17] Agasa
It's hard to imagine the Gecko
falling over a mere slip.
[20:24] Agasa
Last night's lightning must
have been quite shocking.
[20:27] Woman
Oh, yes.
[20:29] Agasa
You may not have been struck,
but the noise must have been loud.
[20:34] Woman
Yes. I was just starting to do my laundry.
[20:39] Agasa
Then the power went out, and you
started to return to the living room.
[20:45] Agasa
That's when the lightning struck.
[20:57] Agasa
When you looked out the window,
you saw a man stuck to your window.
[21:06] Agasa
You reflexively sprayed
the man with your hose.
[21:13] Agasa
The window doesn't open, so there's no
way the things outside would get wet.
[21:26] Woman
I'm sorry.
[21:28] Woman
I didn't mean to do it.
[21:32] Megure
I know.
[21:33] Megure
You're not responsible for
anything that happened.
[21:37] Megure
But until we knew what happened,
we couldn't close the case.
[21:43] Megure
That's all.
[21:45] Megure
You don't need to worry.
[21:46] Woman
Thank you.
[23:15] Conan
Here we go!
[23:18] Genta
There!
[23:20] Mitsuhiko
Got it!
[23:21] Mitsuhiko
Pass!
[23:23] Conan
Okay, Ayumi-chan!
[23:25] Ayumi
No way!
[23:26] Genta
Hey!
[23:28] Haibara
How long are they going to keep playing?
[23:31] Agasa
Probably until they can't
see the ball anymore.
[23:36] Haibara
I see.

Heavy? It's only about ten kilograms.
