    A racing second hand,
    a shooting comet!
[00:04] ---
    Conan's logic is good medicine
    for hearts tired by modern society!
[00:07] ---
    Today's case is animal protection!
    Folk tales have deep meanings!
[00:11] ---
    He sees the single
    truth for what it is,
[00:12] ---
    and looks like a kid but
    has the mind of an adult!
[00:14] ---
    His name? Detective Conan!
[01:51] ---
    "The Crane That Returned
    a Favor Murder Case."
[01:59] ---
    Hey, are you really
    sure this is the road?
[02:02] ---
    Yeah! They should be
    in the marsh just ahead!
[02:06] ---
    Ugh. Here we are in Hokkaido,
    so why no crabs or hot springs?!
[02:13] ---
    We can see cranes
    at the zoo any old time!
[02:16] ---
    Tanchou cranes are a protected
    species and only found in Hokkaido!
[02:22] ---
    So what?!
[02:27] ---
    Feeding Ground
[02:40] ---
    Another one is flying! How cool!
[02:43] ---
    Are we done yet?
    We gotta find a place to stay
[02:46] ---
    or we'll be sleeping
    in the car tonight!
[02:48] ---
    Hey!
[02:53] ---
    Who gave you
    permission to be here?!
[02:55] ---
    Permission? Is this private property?
[02:58] ---
    That's right!
[02:59] ---
    I'm so sorry!
[03:01] ---
    We heard tanchous don't like people,
    so we came here to watch them...
[03:05] ---
    I hope you're not crane thieves...
[03:07] ---
    Do I look like that kind of person?
[03:09] ---
    Yes!
[03:11] ---
    Say, why is this window
    made of tempered glass?
[03:14] ---
    It's the same kind
    used in planes, right?
[03:17] ---
    Some people like
    to break windows for fun...
[03:20] ---
    Do you like the tanchous?
[03:22] ---
    Yes!
[03:22] ---
    Yeah!
[03:28] ---
    What's so fun about
    taking care of cranes?
[03:31] ---
    Old people make no sense.
[03:34] ---
    Hey, Dad! He asked
    if we'd stay the night!
[03:38] ---
    There's even an open-air bath nearby!
[03:40] ---
    Ran-kun and Conan-kun did help me,
    and the tanchous are overjoyed.
[03:46] ---
    It's our way of saying thanks.
[03:48] ---
    Does that mean... it's free?
[03:50] ---
    Leave if you don't like it.
[03:53] ---
    Nothing of the sort!
    We'd be glad to stay!
[03:55] ---
    It's the cranes' return favor!
[03:57] ---
    Yeah!
[03:58] ---
    That there is my home.
[04:00] ---
    I live alone now.
[04:07] ---
    Your wife passed
    away five years ago?
[04:10] ---
    I've lived all alone ever since.
[04:13] ---
    This thing looks alive!
[04:16] ---
    I stuff tanchous that
    die from injuries or illness
[04:20] ---
    and donate them
    to schools and museums.
[04:23] ---
    Hello, there!
[04:25] ---
    This is my brother, Tamotsu. He started
    sponging off me ten days ago.
[04:29] ---
    He's a worthless painter.
[04:31] ---
    Didn't need the
    "worthless" part, Brother.
[04:34] ---
    I just told the truth.
    You lack observational skills.
[04:38] ---
    It's your fatal flaw.
[04:40] ---
    This here is Mori-san from Tokyo.
[04:43] ---
    I'm a detective.
[04:45] ---
    Detective?
[04:45] ---
    Machida Tamotsu (53) Painter
[04:46] ---
    Are you the famous Mori Kogoro-san?
[04:50] ---
    My reputation's even
    made it to Hokkaido, has it?!
[04:54] ---
    No.
[04:55] ---
    Eh?!
[04:56] ---
    Tamotsu is from Tokyo.
[04:58] ---
    Oh, I see...
[04:59] ---
    What is this tempered
    glass for, Mister?
[05:03] ---
    I'm going to use it in that window,
    so I can watch the tanchous from it.
[05:16] ---
    Dad!
[05:17] ---
    Dad!
[05:19] ---
    Why are you two here?!
[05:21] ---
    Are you really donating
    your estate to the village?!
[05:23] ---
    It's not true, is it, Dad?!
[05:25] ---
    It's true.
[05:26] ---
    I want it to take care of the *tanchous
    *and other migratory birds forever!
[05:31] ---
    What?! What about taking care of me?!
[05:31] ---
    Boutique Manager
    Office Worker
[05:35] ---
    Dad! Help me! My boutique's
    going to be taken over!
[05:39] ---
    Quit it! We have company!
[05:42] ---
    Damn! All any of
    you want is money!
[05:46] ---
    Come on, we're family!
[05:49] ---
    Hey, why isn't there a fire going?!
[05:51] ---
    Don't, Hiroshi-kun!
[05:53] ---
    Eh?
[05:53] ---
    Stop!
[05:55] ---
    What was that for?!
[05:57] ---
    A turtledove made its nest
    on the chimney last spring!
[06:01] ---
    She's since left it, though.
[06:04] ---
    She might come back this spring!
[06:06] ---
    You're not to touch anything
    in this house, not just the fireplace!
[06:11] ---
    Bird, birds, birds! Are birds more
    important than your own children?!
[06:16] ---
    What a great parent!
[06:18] ---
    Tamotsu, did you call these two here?!
[06:21] ---
    Yeah. I knew you wouldn't like it,
[06:25] ---
    but I felt it was best to discuss
    this sooner rather than later...
[06:30] ---
    How egotistical.
[06:32] ---
    Your Uncle Tamotsu probably told you,
[06:35] ---
    but an attorney is bringing
    the form here at 5:00 today.
[06:39] ---
    The minute I stamp it, my 300 million
    will go to the village once I die!
[06:44] ---
    300 million?!
[06:46] ---
    Then I'll talk with that attorney!
[06:48] ---
    300 million for tanchous?!
    You're out of your mind!
[06:51] ---
    There's no point!
[06:53] ---
    I've already given you your amount
    of inheritance required by law!
[06:58] ---
    You haven't been here in a while.
[07:00] ---
    It wouldn't hurt to
    visit your mother's grave!
[07:05] ---
    Damn him! Now what do we do?!
[07:08] ---
    I'll talk to the attorney!
    I will put an end to this!
[07:11] ---
    Geez. This is some place
    we wound up staying at...
[07:19] ---
    You'll be all better soon!
    Just hang in there!
[07:22] ---
    He used to be a CEO?
[07:24] ---
    Yeah. He had a
    car dealership in Tokyo.
[07:28] ---
    My sister fell ill eight years ago
    and moved here with him to recuperate.
[07:35] ---
    Just the two of them?
    What about their kids?
[07:39] ---
    Noriko and Hiroshi
    didn't want to leave Tokyo,
[07:43] ---
    so my brother gave them
    their inheritance early.
[07:47] ---
    And they used it all up?
    I'm so jealous...
[08:01] ---
    Stop! What're you--
[08:04] ---
    Quiet! It ain't loaded!
    Or are you blind?!
[08:10] ---
    Move!
[08:15] ---
    What a horrible son.
[08:22] ---
    I'm alive again...
[08:24] ---
    But, there's something missing...
[08:31] ---
    I don't like the sound of this...
[08:35] ---
    Geez! Get your own sake, will ya?!
[08:42] ---
    Huh?
[08:50] ---
    That hits the spot!
[08:52] ---
    What do you think, Mori-san?
    Isn't it a great hot spring?
[08:56] ---
    The best! No complaints from me!
[08:59] ---
    Glad to hear it!
[09:00] ---
    Where are you headed?
[09:01] ---
    Actually, I've been here for ten days,
    but my sketchbook is still blank.
[09:07] ---
    Thought I'd head to the feeding
    ground to sketch some tanchous.
[09:10] ---
    Well, enjoy yourselves--
[09:14] ---
    Here you go!
[09:14] ---
    Thanks!
[09:16] ---
    Oh, yeah. I'll stop by again at
    around 5:00 when the attorney arrives,
[09:20] ---
    so please enjoy yourselves until then!
[09:22] ---
    Sure! I'll enjoy myself plenty!
[09:28] ---
    Dad! You should get
    out before he gets here!
[09:33] ---
    Not yet! There's no telling when
    I'll get to visit another hot spring!
[09:39] ---
    It's your own fault
    if you wind up fainting!
[09:46] ---
    Hiroshi-san...
    Is he going back to Tokyo?
[09:53] ---
    So dizzy...
[09:54] ---
    Haven't you ever heard of limits?!
[09:58] ---
    I don't feel so good...
[10:00] ---
    Of course you don't.
[10:01] ---
    You were in there for two hours
    and swam after drinking!
[10:04] ---
    Is he all right?
[10:07] ---
    He's just dizzy! Anyways,
    did you get any drawings done?
[10:12] ---
    Yep. As you can see...
[10:15] ---
    Wow! You're really good!
[10:21] ---
    Well, I should be going back.
    Take your time, now.
[10:25] ---
    Thanks...
[10:33] ---
    Yamagami Tatsuo (58) Attorney
[10:33] ---
    Evening, Tamotsu-san! Is Shuzo-san home?
[10:36] ---
    Yeah, he should be
    waiting for you. Come on in.
[10:50] ---
    The window's broken!
[10:56] ---
    Brother!
[10:58] ---
    Oh, no!
[11:04] ---
    No good! It's locked from the inside!
[11:08] ---
    What's going on?
[11:09] ---
    My brother's been
    killed with an arrow!
[11:13] ---
    You can't be serious...
[11:23] ---
    Dad!
[11:23] ---
    Don't come in!
[11:24] ---
    Uncle! Hiroshi ran off!
[11:28] ---
    Calm down, Nori-chan!
[11:29] ---
    You look for Hiroshi-kun! I'll tell
    Detective Mori at the hot spring!
[11:34] ---
    You call the police
    with the phone by the door!
[11:37] ---
    Right...
[11:44] ---
    So, the crossbow
    was shot from outside...
[11:47] ---
    The window is locked, and the
    door was locked from the inside?
[11:52] ---
    Yes. He always locks it
    at 4:00 to watch his videos.
[11:57] ---
    He would watch videos
    of my late sister every day.
[12:01] ---
    He probably didn't want
    anyone to see him visiting her...
[12:08] ---
    So, he had the windows
    made of ground glass?
[12:11] ---
    He was about to put in tempered
    glass so he could finally
[12:15] ---
    get over the sadness and watch
    his tanchous whenever he wanted...
[12:19] ---
    But he was murdered
    just before he could...
[12:23] ---
    There's a mark on it...
[12:25] ---
    The arrow was shot from this window?
[12:30] ---
    What's this?!
[12:32] ---
    Why are the shards all lined up?!
[12:35] ---
    And there's another mark on the floor...
[12:38] ---
    Uncle Tamotsu!
[12:39] ---
    Where's Hiroshi-kun?!
[12:40] ---
    I can't find him anywhere!
[12:41] ---
    And our car is gone!
[12:43] ---
    We saw Hiroshi-*san
    *drive off just after 5:00...
[12:47] ---
    How'd he seem?!
[12:48] ---
    He seemed in a real hurry...
[12:51] ---
    Suspicious...
[12:55] ---
    Soot?
[13:00] ---
    There's soot gone in some places!
[13:05] ---
    An unburned wood chip?
[13:07] ---
    Alright, you!
[13:08] ---
    No nosing around the crime scene!
[13:20] ---
    Hiroshi!
[13:21] ---
    Hiroshi-kun!
[13:22] ---
    I'm Ezomatsu, of the Hokkai Police.
[13:24] ---
    This man has confessed to killing
    his father with this crossbow.
[13:30] ---
    Confessed?!
[13:30] ---
    Who are you?
[13:32] ---
    I'm the famous Tokyo
    detective, Mori Kogoro!
[13:36] ---
    Famous detective? Mori what?
[13:40] ---
    Kogoro...
[13:42] ---
    Guess my name really
    hasn't spread to Hokkaido...
[13:45] ---
    It's strange!
[13:47] ---
    What is it?!
    Something's not right!
[13:52] ---
    I just meant to scare him, not kill him!
[13:57] ---
    I aimed for that stuffed tanchou...
[14:01] ---
    I thought if I scared him,
    he wouldn't donate his fortune away...
[14:05] ---
    So, you took the crossbow
    from the workshop?!
[14:09] ---
    When I peeked inside,
[14:12] ---
    I saw him on the sofa,
    watching a video of Mom...
[14:15] ---
    I aimed at the tanchou,
    took two steps back, and shot!
[14:21] ---
    That scare ya?!
    Next time it won't be a--
[14:28] ---
    I didn't want to do it!
[14:30] ---
    But my sister kept telling me to!
[14:33] ---
    What?! I never said to kill anyone!
[14:36] ---
    And that was only
    because Uncle Tamotsu said
[14:39] ---
    Dad might change his
    mind if we really scared him!
[14:42] ---
    Hold on, Nori-chan!
    I would never say anything like that!
[14:46] ---
    There must be some
    misunderstanding.
[14:50] ---
    A feather in his back pocket...
    Is it a tanchou feather?
[14:54] ---
    Feather?!
[15:01] ---
    I thought so!
    But, this isn't enough to--
[15:05] ---
    Wait! The skylight!
[15:16] ---
    Yes! I found it!
[15:18] ---
    The peculiar tanchou sketches...
[15:20] ---
    The mark on the tempered glass...
[15:23] ---
    The lined-up glass shards
    and mark on the floor...
[15:26] ---
    And, the wood chip in the fireplace!
[15:28] ---
    One thing connected them all!
[15:30] ---
    Hiroshi-san isn't the killer!
[15:38] ---
    Believe me! I really
    didn't mean to kill him!
[15:41] ---
    Alright, alright. We can continue
    this discussion back at the station.
[15:46] ---
    And, I must ask you to come as well.
    You're suspected of abetting him.
[15:52] ---
    You can't be serious...
[15:54] ---
    That alright with you,
    Mr. Famous Detective?
[15:56] ---
    Of course! After all, he himself
    confessed to the murder...
[16:03] ---
    A mosquito this time of year...
[16:06] ---
    Not so fast, Detective Ezomatsu.
[16:09] ---
    Hiroshi-san did not murder Shuzo-san!
[16:13] ---
    What kind of nonsense is this?
    He's already admitted to it...
[16:18] ---
    Then, how do you explain
    the glass shards his arrow made?
[16:24] ---
    Glass shards?
[16:27] ---
    These? What about them?
[16:29] ---
    Don't you find it odd?
[16:31] ---
    The arrow was shot from outside,
[16:33] ---
    and the resulting glass
    shards are all lined up.
[16:37] ---
    This is why I don't like amateurs,
    they tamper with crime scenes.
[16:42] ---
    There was something lying here!
[16:44] ---
    Yes! The tempered glass
    had been placed there!
[16:48] ---
    Tempered glass?
[16:51] ---
    This?
[16:57] ---
    And, just like that, Hiroshi-*san
    *fired the crossbow from outside!
[17:02] ---
    And then the glass
    shards fell to the ground...
[17:05] ---
    What?!
[17:07] ---
    Hold on! Wouldn't the arrow
    hit the tempered glass, too?!
[17:10] ---
    Yes. The arrow hit
    the glass and struck the floor.
[17:20] ---
    As tempered glass is clear,
    Hiroshi-san didn't notice from outside.
[17:26] ---
    Then where did the arrow
    in the victim's chest come from?!
[17:31] ---
    From inside the fireplace.
[17:33] ---
    Inside it is a part with soot removed.
[17:36] ---
    That's because a crossbow
    had been set up there.
[17:40] ---
    But, how was it shot from inside here?!
[17:43] ---
    This.
[17:44] ---
    It was lying inside the fireplace.
[17:46] ---
    What's a wood chip
    got to do with anything?
[17:50] ---
    First, you stick a wood
    chip with a string around it
[17:53] ---
    behind the trigger of
    the crossbow in the fireplace.
[17:56] ---
    Next, you attach a strip
    of rubber around the trigger.
[18:00] ---
    The string tied to the wood chip
    is led up the chimney and outside.
[18:06] ---
    The person with that string
    then looked through the skylight
[18:09] ---
    and checked that Shuzo-*san
    *was sitting in his usual spot...
[18:14] ---
    and then pulled the string just
    as Hiroshi-san fired his crossbow.
[18:20] ---
    That arrow struck Shuzo-san in the chest.
[18:23] ---
    The string left distinct
    marks inside the chimney.
[18:27] ---
    The arrow had fireplace soot on it,
    so analysis should confirm it.
[18:34] ---
    This was a premeditated murder?!
[18:36] ---
    Yes. A carefully premeditated one.
[18:39] ---
    So, the killer took care of the
    glass and crossbow after the murder?!
[18:44] ---
    Hiroshi-san couldn't
    have done it, he had run off.
[18:47] ---
    In other words, he's not the killer.
[18:50] ---
    The one who murdered Shuzo-san,
[18:52] ---
    and cleared away the glass,
    and crossbow in this locked room...
[18:58] ---
    was you, Machida Tamotsu-san!
[19:00] ---
    But, three people were at the scene!
[19:04] ---
    They would've noticed the
    tempered glass had been moved!
[19:07] ---
    No.
[19:09] ---
    The first thing most people
    at a crime scene notice
[19:13] ---
    is the victim.
[19:15] ---
    By quickly forcing them back into the hall,
[19:18] ---
    they wouldn't be able to
    recall the condition of the room.
[19:21] ---
    Moreover, you gave them
    orders to leave the scene.
[19:26] ---
    Afterward, you took care of
    the tempered glass and crossbow.
[19:31] ---
    Your reason for murdering Shuzo-san
[19:33] ---
    was likely because he
    refused to loan you money.
[19:37] ---
    Damn! All any of you want is money!
[19:40] ---
    He didn't say that in regard
    to just them, but to you as well!
[19:46] ---
    So, you lured them here, into a trap.
[19:51] ---
    After all, you wouldn't get any
    inheritance if you killed him yourself.
[19:58] ---
    Sorry, Mori-san, but when
    my brother was murdered,
[20:02] ---
    I was at the feeding ground
    drawing pictures, as you can see.
[20:07] ---
    The reason I suspected you
    was because of those drawings!
[20:13] ---
    The reason being that
    tanchous' tails aren't black!
[20:16] ---
    Their plumes are black,
    and their tails are white!
[20:21] ---
    What's more, tanchous face
    the wind when they sleep.
[20:26] ---
    But, they're sleeping against
    the wind in your drawings.
[20:29] ---
    That's because you didn't draw
    them at the feeding ground,
[20:33] ---
    you drew this stuffed one instead!
[20:35] ---
    Probably several days earlier, too!
[20:39] ---
    To make us think
    you drew them today,
[20:43] ---
    you showed us
    an unused sketchbook.
[20:47] ---
    Am I wrong?
[20:49] ---
    It's true, I might've drawn
    their feathers incorrectly,
[20:54] ---
    but you haven't proven
    I didn't draw these there, either!
[21:00] ---
    Remember when you dropped
    your sketchbook at the hot spring?
[21:05] ---
    When you did, Conan caught
    it and gave it back to you.
[21:10] ---
    Yes. Conan's fingerprints
    should be on your sketchbook.
[21:15] ---
    Assuming it's the same one, that is!
[21:19] ---
    I wiped it down when it got dirty later!
[21:22] ---
    Very well. The proof is the
    feather in your back pocket!
[21:28] ---
    A tanchou feather...
[21:29] ---
    No, it's not a tanchou feather.
[21:34] ---
    It's a feather of the turtledove
    that made a nest atop the chimney.
[21:39] ---
    It probably got there when you
    stuffed the string in your pocket.
[21:46] ---
    Ergo, there should be
    soot in your pocket, as well.
[21:51] ---
    Unbelievable. Being suspected
    because of my drawings...
[21:58] ---
    I guess I never did
    have any artistic talent...
[22:02] ---
    Just like my brother said,
    I lack observational skills.
[22:06] ---
    I've finally realized it.
[23:36] ---
    Entire Fortune Donated!!
    Migratory Bird Foundation Created.
[23:42] ---
    But, it's great that his children
    decided to follow in his footsteps
[23:45] ---
    and take care of the tanchous...
[23:48] ---
    But 300 million?
[23:51] ---
    I wanna be a *tanchou
    *and get taken care of...
[23:56] ---
    This guy never changes his ways...
[24:02] ---
    Most of Mr. Dorakura's
    novels feature vampires,
[24:08] ---
    so his nickname is "Mr. Dracula."
[24:17] ---
    All the windows were
    locked from the inside.
[24:21] ---
    Which means the killer...
[24:23] ---
    ...is an insider!
[24:26] ---
    On the next Conan: "The Dracula
    Manor Murder Case (Part 1)."
[24:47] ---
    Next Conan's hint:
[24:49] ---
    Projector.
[24:51] ---
    When I say Dracula, what comes to mind?
[24:53] ---
    Crosses.
[24:53] ---
    Garlic.
[24:54] ---
    Korean barbecue.
[24:55] ---
    That's not right.
