SIGN Coffee Poirot
SIGN Café Poirot Closed
[00:07] Kogoro
Good morning!
[00:09] Amuro
Good morning.
[00:11] Azusa
Good morning, Mori-san.
[00:13] Azusa
But we're not open yet.
[00:16] Kogoro
Well, it smells so good.
[00:19] Amuro
It's the meatballs and cabbage stewed in
milk and tomato we're serving this morning.
[00:24] Kogoro
Looks good.
[00:26] Kogoro
I'll have the morning special.
[00:29] Azusa
Sheesh.
[00:30] Ran
Sorry.
[00:31] Azusa
Come in.
[00:33] Amuro
What will you have, Ran-san?
[00:35] Ran
I'll have the morning special, too.
[00:37] Ran
What do you want?
[00:38] Conan
Uh...
[00:39] Conan
Me, too!
[00:40] Amuro
Roger that.
SIGN Café Poirot Open
[00:46] Ran
Huh? Has there always
been a refrigerator here?
[00:49] Conan
Yeah, since about a month ago.
[00:52] Azusa
It's a cake fridge.
SIGN Poirot's Special Cake Add a drink for +¥300
[00:55] Ran
Oh, that cake?
[00:57] Conan
Ran-neechan, have you had it?
SIGN Tokyo Summit Starting Soon
[00:59] Ran
Yeah. It's really good.
[01:04] Azusa
After all, it's Amuro-san's special cake.
[01:09] Conan
Huh? You use an electric kettle?
[01:12] Azusa
Yeah.
[01:13] Azusa
Our water heater's old.
[01:16] Azusa
It takes forever to boil water
first thing in the morning.
[01:19] Azusa
If I turn this on with my
phone when I leave the house,
[01:22] Azusa
it's boiling right around now.
[01:25] Conan
With your phone? So it's an IoT appliance.
[01:28] Azusa
IoT appliance?
[01:31] Amuro
They're electrical appliances
that can connect to the internet.
[01:35] Amuro
Like that electric kettle.
[01:37] Both
Really?
[01:38] Amuro
Now let's see.
[01:40] Amuro
Again.
[01:43] Kogoro
What is it?
[01:44] Kogoro
What happened?
[01:47] Amuro
You don't need to shout.
[01:49] Azusa
But they melted again. Why?
[01:53] Azusa
There was nothing wrong when
you made them last night.
[01:56] Conan
Again? This isn't the first time?
[01:59] Amuro
No.
[02:03] Conan
Feel that bright morning sunlight!
[02:05] Conan
Saturday is when the love and cases start!
[02:07] Conan
Amuro-san's new special cakes face
trouble first thing in the morning!
[02:12] Conan
Always determining the one truth
[02:14] Conan
with the body of a child
and the mind of an adult,
[02:16] Conan
his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN The Melting Cake!
[03:59] Conan
"The Melting Cake!"
[04:18] Ran
Here, Dad.
[04:21] Kogoro
I said I didn't want any.
[04:24] Kogoro
Why are we having cake
first thing in the morning?
[04:32] Kogoro
It's good!
[04:34] Conan
You can really taste the egg.
[04:36] Amuro
I use more than usual.
[04:39] Ran
It tastes as good as ever.
[04:42] Azusa
But with them looking like this,
[04:44] Azusa
we can't serve these to
our regular customers.
[04:47] Conan
Why did they fall apart?
[04:49] Kogoro
Maybe they were made wrong.
[04:52] Ran
Dad.
[04:53] Kogoro
If it happened twice,
it could happen a third time.
[04:55] Ran
Dad!
[04:57] Azusa
You might be right.
[05:01] Azusa
Unless we can figure out
why this is happening.
[05:03] Amuro
Yes.
[05:04] Amuro
We should come up with
some way to solve this.
SIGN Agasa
[05:11] Mitsuhiko
Yes, we're at the professor's
house right now.
[05:14] Mitsuhiko
You should come, too.
[05:17] Mitsuhiko
We're flying the drone the professor made.
[05:22] Mitsuhiko
Apparently it flies really high.
[05:25] Ayumi
Professor, hurry.
[05:40] Conan
What's wrong, Mitsuhiko?
[05:44] Both
Ayumi-chan!
[05:53] Genta
What was that about?
[05:55] Genta
How does this thing work?
[05:57] Conan
What happened, Mitsuhiko?
[05:59] Mitsuhiko
The drone started flying on its own!
[06:03] Mitsuhiko
No one touched the controller.
[06:07] Conan
It flew without anyone
touching the controller?
[06:10] Agasa
What is this?
[06:13] Agasa
I told you not to fly it without me.
[06:18] Ayumi
We didn't.
[06:19] Genta
We didn't touch the controller.
[06:26] Agasa
I just made this, too.
[06:29] Haibara
It'll take time to fix that.
[06:31] All
What?
[06:32] Ayumi
But what about today?
[06:34] Haibara
Don't count on it.
[06:36] Haibara
It won't be able to fly today.
[06:37] All
But...
[06:40] Mitsuhiko
Anyway, the flight's been canceled.
[06:43] Mitsuhiko
Where are you, Conan-kun?
[06:45] Conan
I'm at Poirot.
[06:47] Conan
Huh?
[06:48] Ayumi
Poirot has this really yummy cake lately.
[06:51] Conan
We were just talking about that cake.
[06:53] Genta
It's not fair that you're the
only one who gets cake, Conan.
[06:56] Mitsuhiko
Then we'll go get some cake, too!
[06:58] All
Yeah!
[06:59] Conan
But the cake is—
[07:01] Conan
What?
[07:04] Mitsuhiko
Haibara-san, come with us.
[07:07] Haibara
I'll pass.
[07:09] Haibara
I need to help the professor.
[07:11] All
What?
SIGN Beika Electric
SIGN Poirot's special cake is sold out today. We're very sorry.
[07:13] Genta
There's no cake?
[07:15] Mitsuhiko
You should've said so.
[07:18] Conan
I was trying to when you hung up.
[07:21] Ayumi
But I was so excited.
[07:24] Azusa
Sorry.
[07:25] Amuro
The electrician's fixing it right now.
[07:29] Amuro
It should be fine tomorrow.
[07:31] Electrician
I examined the refrigerator, and
there's nothing wrong with it.
[07:35] Amuro
What?
[07:37] Azusa
Then why are the cakes falling apart?
[07:40] Electrician
I don't know.
[07:43] Ayumi
Maybe...
[07:46] Conan
Hey! What's gotten into you, Ayumi-chan?
[07:51] Ayumi
Look at these cakes.
[07:54] Ayumi
They look like the cake
before it melts, don't they?
[07:57] Genta
Are these cakes copies of Amuro-no-niichan's?
[08:01] Conan
Keep your voice down.
[08:03] Mitsuhiko
It is suspicious, though.
[08:06] Ayumi
Hey, guys.
SIGN Luxurious Extra Cream Cake
[08:07] Ayumi
How much do you have on you right now?
[08:09] Genta
Just this.
[08:11] Mitsuhiko
This isn't nearly enough.
[08:13] Genta
Conan, cough it up.
[08:15] Genta
We know you have a lot of money.
[08:18] Conan
Why?
[08:23] Amuro
Dough that uses a lot of eggs
is typically this color.
[08:29] Conan
And if you apply the same amount
of cream in the same way,
[08:32] Conan
it does look similar.
[08:34] Mitsuhiko
So it's not plagiarism?
[08:37] Amuro
I don't think so.
[08:39] Amuro
Thanks for the food.
[08:46] All
Thanks for the food.
[08:49] Azusa
It tastes completely different.
[08:51] Ayumi
Yeah. Poirot's cakes taste way better.
[08:55] Genta
That solves the mystery.
[08:57] Conan
Does it?
[08:58] Genta
That baker is breaking in during the night,
[09:02] Genta
and destroying Amuro-no-niichan's cakes.
[09:05] Ayumi
So they can't sell their cakes
since they taste better?
[09:09] Conan
I'm 100% sure they're wrong.
[09:12] Mitsuhiko
That makes things simple.
[09:15] Conan
What's simple?
[09:17] Mitsuhiko
We'll conduct a stakeout here tonight.
[09:20] Conan
Who?
[09:21] Genta
Us, of course.
[09:25] All
The Detective Boys!
[09:28] Azusa
You can't.
[09:30] Azusa
You're children.
[09:32] Mitsuhiko
It's all right. We can do it.
[09:35] Conan
Guys.
[09:37] Genta
Do you not care if you never get
to eat Amuro-niichan's cake again?
[09:41] Ayumi
That can't happen! We have
to catch the culprit!
[09:52] Conan
Okay, okay.
[09:54] Conan
Azusa-san, can we set up
a camera here tonight?
[09:57] Azusa
Huh? A camera here?
[09:59] Amuro
Conan-kun, you don't need to do that.
[10:02] Azusa
Yeah. This is the store's problem.
[10:06] Ayumi
But...
[10:07] Amuro
Don't worry.
[10:08] Amuro
I'll feed all of you delicious cake soon.
[10:13] All
Really?
[10:14] Conan
Have you come up with a solution?
[10:16] Amuro
Yeah, I've got an idea.
[10:25] Amuro
What?
[10:26] Amuro
You were filming the store from outside?
[10:29] Conan
Yeah, from closing time
yesterday to this morning.
[10:32] Conan
I'm curious why the cakes
[10:34] Conan
are melting when the fridge isn't broken.
[10:37] Amuro
You look into anything
that makes you curious.
[10:41] Conan
Actually, it's because
those kids who are excited
[10:46] Conan
about your cake would be disappointed.
[10:48] Amuro
Really?
[10:49] Amuro
So you'll investigate anything
for the people important to you.
[10:55] Amuro
So, did you find anything after
watching the store all night?
[11:00] Conan
I didn't notice anything suspicious.
[11:03] Azusa
Here you go.
[11:04] Conan
Huh? It's not melted.
[11:06] Azusa
Yeah, it was fine today.
[11:09] Conan
They don't melt every day?
[11:12] Azusa
They fall apart about
[11:15] Azusa
two out of every three days.
[11:18] Conan
Two out of three days?
[11:21] Azusa
And it's not regular either.
[11:23] Conan
Really?
SIGN Teitan Elementary School
[11:33] Conan
I set up a camera watching Poirot
for three days after that.
SIGN Class 1-B
[11:41] Ayumi
Huh?
[11:42] Mitsuhiko
We can't see inside the store.
[11:45] Genta
Why?
[11:47] Conan
It's hard to tell from this video.
SIGN Day 1 4/21
SIGN Day 2 4/22
SIGN Day 3 4/23
[11:50] Conan
It happened twice out of three days.
SIGN 11 seconds at 01:00 AM
[11:53] Conan
The first time was 11 seconds
at 1 AM on the 21st.
SIGN 12 seconds at 02:26 AM
[11:57] Conan
The second time was 12 seconds
[12:00] Conan
at 2:26 AM today, the 23rd.
SIGN Poirot's special cake is sold out today. We're very sorry.
[12:03] Azusa
The 21st and today?
[12:05] Azusa
Those are both days the cakes melted.
[12:08] Both
We knew it.
[12:09] Conan
In other words, it's
likely something happened
[12:12] Conan
during the time we couldn't
see inside the store.
[12:16] Ayumi
I know!
[12:17] Ayumi
The culprit came in during that
time and melted the cakes.
[12:21] Azusa
But the store was locked.
[12:24] Mitsuhiko
Are there any signs the lock was broken?
[12:27] Azusa
No, there aren't.
[12:29] Mitsuhiko
In other words, this is an impossible crime.
[12:31] Mitsuhiko
Or else the culprit is
someone who has the key.
[12:36] Ayumi
Oh.
[12:37] Azusa
What? You think I did it?
[12:40] Genta
Hey.
[12:42] Genta
There's always a car passing by
[12:45] Genta
when we can't see inside the store.
[12:47] Conan
Yeah. What about it?
[12:50] Genta
It always passes by when we can't
see inside the other stores, too.
[12:55] Genta
See?
[12:56] Azusa
You're right.
[12:58] Ayumi
Is it the culprit's car?
[13:00] Mitsuhiko
It's possible.
[13:02] Mitsuhiko
Right, Conan-kun?
[13:04] Conan
Yeah, but cars pass by even on
days when the cakes don't melt.
[13:09] Conan
We can't draw any conclusions from this.
[13:12] Mitsuhiko
But it happens every time the cakes melt.
[13:15] Ayumi
It must be connected.
[13:19] Conan
Well, we don't have any other clues.
[13:23] Conan
I'll ask the professor
to make it easier to see.
[13:28] Amuro
By professor,
[13:30] Amuro
do you mean the professor
who makes all kinds
[13:33] Amuro
of interesting gadgets for you?
[13:34] Conan
Huh? Yeah.
[13:37] Amuro
I see.
[13:47] Agusa
That's a taxi.
[13:50] Haibara
And...
SIGN 4/21 - 4/23
SIGN Teiko Transit 227
[13:53] Haibara
It's the same taxi on both days.
[13:55] Conan
The same taxi passes by when we
can't see the interior of the store?
[14:01] Ran
Has there always been a refrigerator here?
[14:03] Azusa
It's a cake fridge.
[14:06] Azusa
Why?
[14:09] Azusa
There was nothing wrong when
you made them last night.
[14:11] Electrician
I examined the refrigerator, and
there's nothing wrong with it.
[14:15] Mitsuhiko
The drone started flying on its own.
[14:17] Mitsuhiko
No one touched the controller.
[14:21] Ayumi
Is it the culprit's car?
[14:24] Conan
I finally figured it out.
[14:25] Both
What?
[14:27] Conan
The culprit destroying the cakes.
SIGN Teiko Transit 227
[14:33] Radio
Car 227, head to Beika Station.
[14:37] Radio
Car 227, there's a Mori-sama
at Beika Station.
[14:41] Radio
Can you get there?
[14:43] Driver
This is car 227.
[14:45] Driver
Mori-sama at Beika Station. Roger that.
[14:50] Ran
Excuse me.
SIGN Azusa-san Calling
[14:53] Conan
It's from Azusa-san.
[14:54] Ran
Then it must be.
[14:56] Conan
Yeah.
[14:57] Driver
Excuse me.
[14:59] Driver
I'm sorry, but I already have a passenger.
[15:02] Ran
I know. I'm Mori, the person
who hired this taxi.
[15:06] Driver
What? Mori-san?
[15:08] Conan
Yeah. We're the one who called for a taxi.
[15:12] Conan
But the culprit who melted
Poirot's cakes is...
SIGN Coffee Poirot
[15:20] Conan
Ayumi-chan was right.
SIGN Poirot's special cake is sold out today. We're very sorry.
[15:22] Conan
The cakes melted when we
couldn't see inside the store.
[15:26] Ayumi
I knew it.
[15:28] Ayumi
But why couldn't we see inside?
[15:30] Conan
Because the windows fogged up.
[15:32] Mitsuhiko
Why?
[15:35] Conan
Because of this.
[15:38] All
What?
[15:41] Conan
This kettle expels steam
when the water boils, right?
[15:46] Azusa
Yeah.
[15:47] Azusa
Is that what made the windows fog up?
[15:49] Conan
Yeah.
[15:50] Conan
And this electric kettle
is an IoT appliance, right?
[15:54] Ran
So you used your phone to boil the water?
[15:58] Ayumi
I got it.
[15:59] Ayumi
She was turning the kettle on
using her phone during the night.
[16:03] Mitsuhiko
That makes it possible to melt the
cakes without being in the store.
[16:07] Azusa
H-Hold on. I wouldn't do that.
[16:10] Conan
It's not Azusa-san.
[16:13] Genta
What?
[16:13] Genta
Then who did it?
[16:15] Conan
The culprit was reflected
in the windows of the store.
[16:20] All
What?
[16:21] Ayumi
That car?
[16:23] Azusa
It was a taxi, right?
[16:25] Conan
Yeah. We talked to the
taxi driver of that car.
SIGN Teiko Transit 227
[16:29] Conan
Every night after midnight,
he naps near Poirot.
[16:34] Conan
When he's radioed by dispatch...
[16:39] Conan
He passes by in front of Poirot.
[16:44] Conan
The window fogged up by the
steam from the electric kettle
[16:48] Conan
makes it reflective like a mirror,
[16:50] Conan
reflecting the taxi passing
in front of the store.
[16:54] Conan
When I examined the times he was radioed,
[16:57] Conan
it was the times the window fogged up.
[16:59] Conan
In other words, it matched
the days the cakes melted.
[17:02] Genta
So did the taxi driver do it?
[17:06] Conan
No, the culprit is...
[17:09] Amuro
The culprit is the taxi's radio.
[17:12] Amuro
Right?
[17:13] Conan
That's right.
[17:13] Conan
The kettle's electrical circuits were
being activated by the taxi's radio.
[17:18] Conan
The frequency of the taxi's radio
[17:19] Conan
and the on/off switch of the
kettle happened to match.
[17:24] Mitsuhiko
What? Is that possible?
[17:27] Amuro
It's called radio-frequency interference.
[17:29] Amuro
It happens all the time.
[17:32] All
Really?
[17:33] Conan
It's what happened to the drone that
flew on its own at the professor's.
[17:37] All
What?
[17:39] Conan
You were talking to me
with your badge, remember?
[17:43] Mitsuhiko
That's it.
[17:44] Mitsuhiko
Our badges were causing radio-frequency
interference with the drone.
[17:48] Conan
Yeah.
[17:49] Conan
These badges have a broad range,
[17:53] Conan
so their radio waves must be strong.
[17:55] Conan
We'd better tell the professor to
change the frequency of his drone.
[17:59] Conan
And that radio-frequency interference
was causing the cakes to melt.
[18:04] All
What?
[18:05] Azusa
How?
[18:06] Conan
You always keep the kettle here, right?
[18:09] Azusa
Yeah...
[18:10] Azusa
Oh.
[18:11] Conan
That's right. This electric kettle
[18:15] Conan
expels steam when it boils.
[18:18] Conan
The vent on the back of refrigerator
[18:21] Conan
draws in the hot vapor,
[18:24] Conan
turning the inside of the fridge into a sauna
[18:28] Conan
for the several seconds
the windows are fogged up.
[18:32] Conan
That makes the cakes melt, and
then they're chilled that way.
[18:36] Azusa
Then I'd better stop using this.
[18:40] Ran
Couldn't you just put it somewhere else?
[18:43] Azusa
Oh, right. I'll try it.
[18:46] Ayumi
Does this mean we can eat
Amuro-san's cake again?
[18:50] Amuro
Of course you can.
[18:52] Amuro
But it's a slightly different cake now.
[18:58] Amuro
It's a half-baked cake that's
melted from the start.
[19:01] Azusa
Half-baked cake?
[19:03] Mitsuhiko
It looks like a shriveled cake.
[19:06] Amuro
It's made that way on purpose.
[19:09] Amuro
But the sponge inside is cooked.
[19:14] Amuro
See?
[19:17] Genta
Wow!
[19:18] Ayumi
It looks delicious!
[19:20] Conan
Huh? The solution you mentioned...
[19:24] Amuro
Yeah.
[19:25] Amuro
With these, unlike cakes
that are already frosted,
[19:29] Amuro
I can store the cream and cake separately.
[19:34] Ran
Then you don't have to
worry about them melting.
[19:36] Amuro
That's right.
[19:37] Amuro
I just have to add the cream and fruit
before serving them to customers.
[19:42] Azusa
That's not too much trouble at all.
[19:44] Amuro
Nope.
[19:45] Amuro
And now you can tell them apart from
the cakes from that other bakery.
[19:50] Conan
Amuro-san, you were thinking
of recipes for cakes
[19:54] Conan
that couldn't melt instead of
why the cakes were melting?
[19:57] Amuro
Yeah.
[19:58] Amuro
After all, isn't that my job?
[20:02] Conan
Well, that aside,
[20:05] Conan
I hope you're doing your job
as a public security officer.
[20:09] Kogoro
Hey!
[20:11] Kogoro
You've got something tasty looking there.
[20:15] Amuro
In that case, why don't all of you try it?
[20:19] All
All right!
SIGN Coffee Poirot
[21:45] Kogoro
This place's cakes are so good.
[21:49] Ran
Who said he didn't want cake
first thing in the morning?
[21:52] Genta
Dude, these are really good!
[21:55] Ayumi
They're even better than the last cake!
[21:58] Mitsuhiko
The creamy texture is great!
[22:01] Conan
Maybe that's why they taste even
more strongly of eggs than before.
[22:06] Amuro
Yeah.
[22:07] Amuro
I use the same number of eggs,
[22:09] Amuro
but in a half-baked cake,
the flavor comes through stronger.
[22:12] Ran
And this cream.
[22:14] Ran
It's not too sweet.
[22:16] Amuro
I use yogurt in the cream and dough.
[22:20] Azusa
So this is yogurt cream I'm tasting.
[22:24] Amuro
Yes.
[22:25] Amuro
Putting yogurt in the dough makes it softer.
[22:29] Amuro
Putting it in the cream makes
it taste better with fruit.
[22:33] Ran
You can have bites of just
dough or just cream and fruit.
[22:37] Ran
It's fun how you can eat
it in all kinds of ways.
[22:40] Amuro
I'm delighted to hear that.
[22:44] Kogoro
That's right.
[22:46] Kogoro
I forgot why I came here.
[22:48] Kogoro
Here.
[22:50] Azusa
Thank you.

Those roads are going to be
closed the day of the summit.
[23:00] Amuro
Azusa-san, I've told the manager,
[23:03] Amuro
but I'm taking that day off.
[23:05] Amuro
I'm counting on you.
[23:06] Azusa
Sure.
[23:08] Azusa
The manager told me.
[23:10] Conan
Which means Amuro-san will be
involved in the summit's security?
[23:15] Conan
Amuro-san.
[23:17] Conan
You're not neglecting your
public safety duties.
[23:21] Amuro
You sure do love investigating, don't you?
[23:26] Conan
At the time, I had no idea the Amuro-san,
[23:30] Conan
who was enjoying baking
cakes over solving cases,
[23:32] Amuro
There's more.
[23:33] Conan
would do something like that.
[23:35] All
All right!

[23:45] Woman
Mifuyu! What's wrong, Mifuyu?!
[23:49] Woman
Mifuyu, hang in there!
[23:52] Woman
Why?
[23:54] Kogoro
Is this really where your friend
was stabbed in the chest and died?
[23:58] Conan
And there's a knife over here.
[24:02] Kogoro
Tabata must've done it while
bringing Mifuyu-san's body here.
