[00:00] ---
    Detective Conan Episode 863 "The
    Spirit Detective's Murder (Part One)"
[00:07] Conan
    Rum.
[00:10] Conan
    I was right.
[00:12] Conan
    The person who vanished after killing
    Haneda Koji seventeen years ago...
[00:15] Conan
    ...was the bodyguard Asaka.
[00:20] Conan
    And the identity of Asaka...
[00:22] Conan
    ...is the number two man of the
    Black Organization, Rum.
[00:28] Conan
    Even if that's the dying message
    he left before he was murdered,
[00:34] Conan
    I can't find any other information.
[00:37] Conan
    Is Asaka their family name
    or given name, anyway?
[00:41] Conan
    If it's their family name, then
    I can't even tell their gender.
[00:46] Conan
    And what drug was Haneda Koji given?
[00:50] Conan
    Apparently it was made by Haibara's parents.
[00:53] Conan
    But Haibara said she wasn't trying...
[00:56] Conan
    ...to make a poison when
    she recreated the drug.
[01:01] Conan
    Besides, Gin mentioned something
    when I was given that drug.
[01:07] Gin
    We'll use this.
[01:09] Gin
    This drug was recently developed
    by the Organization.
[01:14] Gin
    They won't be able to find any
    traces of poison in the body.
[01:18] Gin
    It allows you to commit the perfect crime.
[01:21] Gin
    Although this prototype hasn't
    been tested on humans yet.
[01:27] Conan
    Which means I was given the
    the drug recreated by Haibara,
[01:32] Conan
    and I was its first test subject.
[01:36] Conan
    I'm home.
[01:36] Kogoro
    What? An interview?
[01:39] Kogoro
    With another detective?
[01:42] Kogoro
    Spirit detective Hotta Gaito?
[01:45] Kogoro
    Yeah, I remember a shady detective
    who used to go by that name.
[01:50] Conan
    In any case, I need to
    gather more information.
[01:54] Conan
    But the case's site was taken down, and
    it hasn't been reuploaded for a while.
[01:58] Kogoro
    What? He's going to solve the
    mystery of Haneda Koji's murder?
[02:03] Conan
    What?
[02:04] Kogoro
    Wasn't the Haneda Koji murder...
[02:06] Kogoro
    ...an unsolved case of some guy...
[02:11] Kogoro
    ...who was murdered in America
    seventeen years ago?
[02:15] Kogoro
    What?
[02:16] Kogoro
    He's going to summon the
    spirit of Haneda Koji?!
[02:19] Kogoro
    I don't have time for that kind of idiocy!
[02:22] Kogoro
    What?
[02:23] Kogoro
    This time it's just a short segment
    on a late night TV show,
[02:27] Kogoro
    but if it's well-received, it'll
    be switched to prime time?
[02:30] Kogoro
    And my name will be in the title?
[02:32] Kogoro
    And the MC will be Okino Yoko-chan?
SIGN    Mori Kogoro's
SIGN    Solve the Cold Case!!
[02:39] Kogoro
    There's a planning meeting tomorrow
    morning at a hotel restaurant?
[02:43] Kogoro
    Okay, okay!
[02:45] Kogoro
    So, how much does it pay?
[03:00] Conan
    Even heaven is watching the
    labyrinths of the world!
[03:02] Conan
    Full throttle reasoning skills
    penetrate all mysteries!
[03:04] Conan
    The information on Rum is eerily effective.
[03:06] Conan
    What will the spirit detective reveal?
[03:08] Conan
    Always determining the one truth...
[03:10] Conan
    ...with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[03:12] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    The Spirit Detective's Murder (Part One)
[04:44] Conan
    "The Spirit Detective's Murder, Part One!"
[04:52] Kogoro
    Why'd you have to come with me?
[04:56] Conan
    Ran-neechan's been gone since yesterday
    night because of her karate training camp.
[05:01] Conan
    And it's not fair that you're the
    only one who gets to eat at a hotel.
[05:04] Kogoro
    Apparently the TV station's paying for it,
[05:08] Kogoro
    but don't order anything too expensive.
[05:12] Conan
    Besides, I want to meet
    the spirit detective, too.
SIGN    Hotta Gaito
    Spirit Detective
[05:16] Conan
    That detective Hotta
    Gaito summons the spirits...
[05:19] Conan
    ...of dead people and says
    things only people close...
[05:21] Conan
    ...to the deceased would've known, right?
[05:25] Kogoro
    Yeah.
[05:26] Conan
    Apparently he found the skeleton of a
    person who went missing in the mountains.
[05:31] Kogoro
    It was a coincidence.
[05:34] Kogoro
    The bones ended up belonging to someone else.
[05:37] Kogoro
    Besides, Hotta knew all that information
    because he investigated cases beforehand.
[05:42] Kogoro
    It got out that he paid people to create
    false witness reports of the missing person.
[05:47] Kogoro
    After the media destroyed
    him, he disappeared.
[05:51] Kogoro
    Anyway, I'm surprised he
    was able to return to TV.
[05:55] Kogoro
    And even if he does have a new scam,
[05:59] Kogoro
    the Sleeping Kogoro will expose it.
[06:05] Conan
    That's right.
[06:06] Conan
    If he's summoning the spirit
    of a man who died so long ago,
[06:13] Conan
    it's likely he got a hold of information related
    to the case that hasn't been made public yet.
[06:19] Conan
    I'll do whatever it takes
    to get that information.
[06:24] Conan
    And expose the identity of Rum.
[06:33] Kokuri
    Mori-san!
[06:35] Kokuri
    Thank you for waiting.
[06:38] Kokuri
    Sorry for asking you to come so early.
SIGN    Kokuri Sanpei (35)
    Toto TV Director
[06:40] Kogoro
    It's fine.
[06:42] Kokuri
    Ah, you must be Conan-kun.
[06:45] Conan
    Nice to meet you.
[06:46] Kokuri
    I know about you.
[06:48] Kokuri
    You're the Kid Killer, right?
[06:49] Kokuri
    You think we could get a
    comment from you, too?
[06:54] Conan
    Sure.
[06:55] Kogoro
    Let's eat while we discuss the show.
[06:58] Kokuri
    First, we need to go the room
    where Hotta-san is staying.
[07:02] Kogoro
    What?
[07:03] Kokuri
    Apparently he wants you to
    see him summon a spirit.
[07:06] Kogoro
    All right.
[07:08] Kokuri
    Let's head there.
[07:13] Kokuri
    Anyway, you were right to
    bring Conan-kun with you.
[07:18] Kogoro
    What?
[07:19] Kokuri
    Even if him summoning a spirit
    does seem a little fake,
[07:22] Kokuri
    we'll still be able to get a
    shot of him looking surprised.
[07:25] Kogoro
    I see.
[07:26] Kogoro
    I can't imagine this kid
    being surprised by that.
[07:34] Kokuri
    Huh? That's weird.
[07:36] Kokuri
    He should be in his room.
[07:39] Kokuri
    When I emailed him this morning to
    confirm the time of our meeting,
[07:43] Kokuri
    he said he was seeing someone
    else before our meeting.
[07:47] Kokuri
    Maybe he's still at their room.
[07:51] Kokuri
    Huh? Hotta-san emailed me an hour ago.
[07:55] Kokuri
    What?!
SIGN    They're going to kill me. Help.
[07:56] Kokuri
    "Th-They're going to kill me. Help?"
[07:58] Kogoro
    Seriously?
[08:01] Kokuri
    I-In any case, I'll have a
    bellhop come unlock the door.
[08:05] Kokuri
    You stay here so nobody leaves the room.
[08:09] Kogoro
    S-Sure.
[08:12] Kogoro
    This better not be some kind of performance.
[08:19] Kogoro
    What's taking him so long?
[08:21] Kogoro
    What is that director doing?
[08:24] Conan
    Oh, they're here.
[08:26] Kokuri
    Sorry. It took a while
    to explain the situation.
[08:32] Bellhop
    Hotta-sama?
[08:34] Bellhop
    Hotta-sama, are you there?
[08:36] Kokuri
    You don't need to bother
    with that. Open the door.
[08:38] Bellhop
    A-All right.
[08:40] Bellhop
    In that case...
[08:42] Kokuri
    Hey, wait!
[08:44] Kokuri
    My phone's ringing.
[08:46] Kokuri
    Hello, Hotta-san?
[08:48] Kokuri
    Is that you, Hotta-san?
[08:50] Kokuri
    I'm sorry.
[08:51] Kokuri
    It was a wrong number.
[08:53] Bellhop
    I'm opening the door.
[08:54] Kokuri
    Okay.
[08:58] Bellhop
    Hotta-sama?
[09:01] Kogoro
    What was that sound?
[09:03] Kogoro
    It sounded like something breaking.
[09:12] Kogoro
    Wineglasses and plates.
[09:15] Kogoro
    Looks like someone was drinking
    wine until a moment ago.
[09:19] Kogoro
    That person dropped the plates and
    glasses in surprise when we came in,
[09:25] Kogoro
    stepped in the spilled wine,
    and ran into that room.
[09:44] Kogoro
    Someone just ran from the balcony!
[09:46] Conan
    But we're on the fourth floor.
[09:48] Kogoro
    No, I know I saw someone.
[09:51] Kogoro
    They must've crossed the balcony
    into the room next door.
[09:56] Kogoro
    They left their wine-stained
    slippers behind, too.
[09:59] Kogoro
    That must be it.
[10:03] Kogoro
    Hey, bellhop.
[10:04] Bellhop
    Y-Yes, sir.
[10:06] Kogoro
    Is there someone staying
    in the room next door?
[10:09] Bellhop
    You mean room 403?
[10:12] Bellhop
    A young high school-aged man has
    been staying there since last week.
[10:16] Kogoro
    What?
[10:17] Kogoro
    Some kid has been living by
    themselves in a hotel for a week?
[10:21] Conan
    More importantly, what's that sound?
[10:25] Bellhop
    It's the sound of the remodeling
    construction going on downstairs.
[10:28] Bellhop
    Since it's loud and makes
    the rooms shake a little,
[10:30] Bellhop
    the rooms in this area are discounted.
[10:33] Conan
    Huh.
[10:35] Kogoro
    So, where's Hotta Gaito?
[10:39] Conan
    Probably in bed.
[10:41] Conan
    There's a slight bump.
[10:46] Conan
    But judging by the fact that
    he hasn't moved an inch,
[10:50] Conan
    he's probably already...
[11:12] Kogoro
    Damn it. Who would do something so awful?
[11:16] Kokuri
    Hotta-san?
[11:18] Kokuri
    Hotta-san!
[11:19] Kogoro
    Stop!
[11:20] Kogoro
    Don't touch the body.
[11:21] Kokuri
    Right.
[11:22] Bellhop
    I'll go back to the front
    desk and call the police.
[11:26] Kogoro
    No, you stay here with Kokuri-san...
[11:30] Kogoro
    ...and call the police from here.
[11:32] Kogoro
    If the killer returns through that window,
[11:34] Kogoro
    one man may not be enough to stop them.
[11:38] Bellhop
    S-Stop them?
[11:40] Kokuri
    M-Mori-san, where are you going?
[11:42] Kogoro
    I'm going to the room next door.
[11:44] Kogoro
    That kid living in the room next
    door may have been killed already.
[11:54] Kogoro
    Damn it. No one's answering.
[11:57] Conan
    The killer must've gotten to them.
[11:59] Sera
    Who is it?
[12:02] Sera
    What's with all the noise?
[12:04] Kogoro
    Y-You...
[12:08] Sera
    Huh? You're the guy from
    the detective agency.
[12:12] Conan
    S-Sera...neechan?
[12:15] Sera
    Hey, Conan-kun's with you.
[12:18] Kogoro
    More importantly, did anyone enter your room?
[12:22] Sera
    No.
[12:24] Kogoro
    Are you sure?
[12:26] Sera
    It's true.
[12:27] Sera
    I'm the only one in here.
[12:34] Sera
    I see, I see.
[12:36] Sera
    Have I got this right?
[12:37] Sera
    The room next door to this one is room 402.
[12:40] Sera
    You went there with TV director Kokuri...
[12:44] Sera
    ...to meet with the spirit detective.
[12:47] Sera
    The moment you opened the door,
[12:49] Sera
    you heard the sound of wine glasses...
[12:52] Sera
    ...and plates falling and breaking.
[12:58] Sera
    When you ran into the room, you saw footprints
    left by someone who stepped in the wine.
[13:02] Sera
    Those footprints led into the bedroom, so
    when you opened the door and went inside,
[13:05] Sera
    the window was open, and you saw
    someone running from the balcony.
[13:10] Sera
    That balcony is connected to the
    balcony of my room, room 403.
[13:16] Sera
    You thought that person might have leapt...
[13:21] Sera
    ...over the railing and fled into my room.
[13:24] Sera
    While you were looking around,
[13:25] Sera
    you noticed a slight lump
    in the bed in the bedroom.
[13:30] Sera
    And when you pulled off the covers...
[13:34] Sera
    Is that right?
[13:36] Conan
    Yeah.
[13:37] Conan
    That's why we were wondering if
    anyone suspicious came to your room.
[13:42] Sera
    It's just me.
[13:44] Kogoro
    But the wine-stained slippers were left at the
    edge of the balcony of the room next door.
[13:48] Kogoro
    Since we're on the fourth floor,
[13:52] Kogoro
    your room was the only
    place they could've gone.
[13:56] Kogoro
    In any case, let me search your room.
[13:59] Kogoro
    They could have sneaked in
    and be hiding somewhere.
[14:01] Sera
    I told you, there's no one here.
[14:05] Sera
    Anyway, do you know who did it?
[14:08] Kogoro
    Apparently he met someone
    before he was meeting me.
[14:12] Kogoro
    They probably did it.
[14:14] Kogoro
    It's probably someone involved
    in that seventeen year old case.
[14:19] Kogoro
    Hotta Gaito said he was going to
    summon the spirit of Haneda Koji,
[14:22] Kogoro
    who was murdered in that case.
[14:26] Sera
    H-Haneda...
[14:28] Sister
    ...Koji.
[14:29] Sera
    And?
[14:30] Sera
    Did that detective tell you
    anything about the case?
[14:33] Kogoro
    N-No. I hadn't met him yet.
[14:35] Conan
    What? Do you know something about Haneda?
[14:39] Sera
    Y-Yeah. He was a professional
    shogi player, right?
[14:43] Kogoro
    If you want to be involved in this
    case, let me search your room.
[14:47] Kogoro
    The police will be doing it
    anyway when they get here.
[14:50] Sera
    Fine.
[14:53] Sera
    I left my underwear out, so give me a minute.
[15:00] Kogoro
    Sheesh.
[15:02] Kogoro
    How long does it take to
    put away some underwear?
[15:05] Bellhop
    Excuse me.
[15:07] Bellhop
    I just heard from the front desk.
[15:10] Bellhop
    We received a complaint about a car parked
    in a strange spot in the parking lot.
[15:14] Bellhop
    Is it either of yours?
[15:16] Kokuri
    Oh, that's my car.
[15:19] Kokuri
    Sorry. The parking lot was full.
[15:23] Kokuri
    I forgot that I was going to re-park it later.
[15:26] Kokuri
    I-I'll move it right away.
[15:32] Sera
    Thanks for waiting.
[15:33] Sera
    Hey, wa-
[15:36] Conan
    If you needed to hide yourself in a hurry...
[15:40] Conan
    The perfect place would be the balcony.
[15:43] Conan
    But there's no one here.
[15:47] Conan
    Anyway, since the wine-stained slippers
    were on the balcony next door,
[15:53] Conan
    they must have jumped to this one.
[15:56] Conan
    This is the fourth floor.
[15:58] Conan
    They couldn't have jumped down.
[16:01] Conan
    Huh? There's a car parked
    directly below the balcony.
[16:05] Conan
    What's it doing there?
[16:08] Conan
    Kokuri-san?
[16:10] Conan
    Oh, that must be the car he just mentioned.
[16:14] Conan
    It's a convertible.
[16:16] Conan
    He's got a nice car.
[16:20] Conan
    That's odd, though.
[16:22] Conan
    The parking lot's pretty empty.
[16:26] Conan
    Why'd he park it there?
[16:34] Conan
    I should take some pictures just in case.
[16:54] Conan
    I should take one of under the balcony, too.
[16:59] Sera
    Conan-kun.
[17:02] Sera
    Kogoro-san's calling you.
[17:04] Sera
    He's finished searching the room.
[17:06] Conan
    Oh, okay.
[17:07] Conan
    Sorry to have bothered you.
[17:12] Sera
    See? I was right.
[17:15] Sera
    Doesn't he have good instincts?
[17:19] Sister
    More importantly, solve this
    case as soon as possible.
[17:23] Sister
    If the police search this room,
    they'll find out about me.
[17:29] Sister
    You need to solve it before
    they hear about the information...
[17:34] Sister
    ...concerning Haneda Koji's
    murder and come here.
[17:38] Sera
    Y-Yeah.
[17:48] Sister
    A bow tie?
[18:02] Megure
    I understand the events leading
    up to the discovery of the body.
[18:04] Megure
    But it's hard to believe someone
    hurried out of the room,
[18:09] Megure
    since you heard the sounds of wine glasses
    and plates breaking when you opened the door.
[18:14] Megure
    There was construction taking place
    on the floor below at that time.
[18:19] Megure
    The room was shaking slightly, wasn't it?
[18:21] Bellhop
    Y-Yes.
[18:22] Bellhop
    Construction starts every day at 9 AM.
[18:27] Megure
    You entered this room right
    around 9 AM, didn't you?
[18:32] Kogoro
    Yes.
[18:33] Megure
    Then couldn't the vibrations from the
    work have caused the glasses and plates...
[18:39] Megure
    ...to fall if they were positioned
    just on the edge of the table?
[18:41] Conan
    Why don't we try it by putting our
    phones on the edge of the table?
[18:46] Takagi
    Y-You're right.
[18:51] Takagi
    Is everyone ready?
[18:53] Takagi
    Here we go.
[18:57] Conan
    Huh?
[18:58] Conan
    Half of them fell, but the other
    half are still on the table.
[19:03] Takagi
    That's it.
[19:04] Takagi
    Even if the table shakes, there's no telling
    which way they'll shift, so they don't all fall.
[19:09] Megure
    I see.
[19:11] Megure
    Even if the utensils were placed on the edge,
[19:13] Megure
    the odds that they would fall
    on the floor were 50-50.
[19:16] Megure
    It's not very useful for a trick.
[19:18] Kogoro
    You're right.
[19:20] Megure
    And there's no guarantee construction
    would start at exactly 9 AM.
[19:24] Bellhop
    Actually, construction was
    scheduled to start at 9 AM.
[19:29] Bellhop
    It's falling behind schedule, so the hotel has
    been pressuring the construction company to hurry.
[19:34] Megure
    But there's still no guarantee
    it would start at exactly 9 AM.
[19:36] Bellhop
    Actually, we once received
    a complaint from a guest...
[19:39] Bellhop
    ...that construction started a minute early,
[19:44] Bellhop
    so the construction crew's clocks are set
    to match the hotel's down to the second.
[19:49] Megure
    I see.
[19:50] Kogoro
    But it's still a coincidence that
    we opened the door at exactly 9 AM.
[19:55] Kogoro
    Besides, we opened the door
    then because Kokuri-san...
[19:58] Kogoro
    ...was delayed while calling the bellhop.
[20:02] Kogoro
    What's taking him so long?
[20:05] Kogoro
    What is that director doing?
[20:07] Conan
    They're here.
[20:09] Kokuri
    Sorry. It took a while
    to explain the situation.
[20:13] Kogoro
    And Kokuri-san went to get the bellhop...
[20:15] Kogoro
    ...because he noticed the email from Hotta-san.
[20:19] Kokuri
    Huh? Hotta-san emailed me an hour ago.
[20:23] Kokuri
    What?
SIGN    They're going to kill me. Help.
[20:24] Kokuri
    "Th-They're going to kill me. Help?"
[20:27] Kogoro
    Seriously?
[20:29] Kokuri
    I-In any case, I'll have a
    bellhop come unlock the door.
[20:33] Kokuri
    You stay here so nobody leaves the room.
[20:37] Kogoro
    S-Sure.
[20:39] Kogoro
    And the email Kokuri-san
    noticed was sent an hour ago.
[20:45] Kogoro
    If he'd noticed right away,
[20:47] Kogoro
    we would've entered the room a lot sooner.
[20:52] Megure
    There wouldn't have been time for a trick.
[20:55] Kogoro
    Exactly.
[20:55] Kogoro
    So the killer fled from the room when they
    noticed us enter and dropped the utensils then.
[21:01] Conan
    What's wrong, Detective Takagi?
[21:04] Takagi
    Something got stuck to my hand
    when I hit the table earlier.
[21:08] Takagi
    Is this salt?
[21:11] Conan
    Salt?
[21:13] Conan
    That's it.
[21:14] Conan
    If they used salt, then that explains
    what the inspector said earlier.
[21:17] Conan
    And all the coincidences
    the old man listed...
[21:21] Sera
    Really?
[21:22] Sera
    You got salt on the base
    of your pinkie finger...
[21:27] Sera
    ...when you hit the table directly above
    where the glasses and plates had fallen.
[21:30] Sera
    Really?
[21:32] Conan
    Hey.
[21:34] Conan
    It kind of sounds like you're explaining
    the details of the situation to someone.
[21:38] Sera
    I-I'm not doing that.
[21:40] Sera
    I'm the type of person who organizes their
    thoughts by asking themselves questions.
[21:45] Sera
    You didn't know?
[21:47] Conan
    Really?
[21:49] Conan
    I had no idea.
