[00:01] ---
    My name's Conan Edogawa!
[00:02] ---
    High school student Shinichi was forced
    to take a pill that shrunk him!
[00:05] ---
    My mind is still that of
    a great detective, though!
[00:07] ---
    Using my keen powers of deduction,
[00:08] ---
    I solve every kind of case there is!
[00:10] ---
    Today's case takes place
    during a spring festival!
[00:12] ---
    Even if it's hidden behind
    the lens of a camera,
[00:13] ---
    there is always only one truth!
[00:15] ---
    The first end of the century in 100 years
[00:21] ---
    When told to cry, I laughed instead
[00:34] ---
    The first end of the century
    in a long, long time
[00:40] ---
    We're leaping into a wide open world
[00:46] ---
    The things I tried to
    understand as a child
[00:52] ---
    remain a mystery even as an adult
[00:58] ---
    I'm neither a hotshot
    nor especially great
[01:04] ---
    All I understand is
    the pounding of my heart
[01:11] ---
    It's neither an answer nor the truth
[01:17] ---
    All I have faith in is
    the pounding of my heart
[01:23] ---
    That and nothing else
[01:47] ---
    The Tenkaichi Night Festival Murder.
[01:52] ---
    We now go live to Saitama prefecture's
    Tenkaichi Night Festival.
[01:56] ---
    The Tenkaichi Night Festival
    is famous for the bonfires
[01:59] ---
    that spell out the word "Tenkaichi"
    on three separate mountains.
[02:02] ---
    The lighting of the letters
    is about to begin!
[02:04] ---
    Hey! Can't you look
    for it more quietly?!
[02:08] ---
    Jeez. Just when I thought
    you went to the festival,
[02:11] ---
    you're already back here lookin'
    for your wallet or something...
[02:13] ---
    Can't even take a nice, relaxin' bath.
[02:16] ---
    You haven't forgotten about your
    promise for tonight, have you?!
[02:19] ---
    Promise?
[02:20] ---
    Come on! I came along because
    you said you'd celebrate with me...
[02:25] ---
    What's with that get-up?
[02:27] ---
    And what happened in here?
[02:30] ---
    Sorry, but tonight's plans are cancelled.
[02:35] ---
    After all, the person we
    would be honoring tonight...
[02:38] ---
    Saitama prefecture's Tenkaichi
    Night Festival is now underway!
[02:42] ---
    Look! The character for "Ten" has
    just been lit up on the mountain!
[02:46] ---
    ...is dead!
[02:53] ---
    Nothing personal, Imatake.
[02:59] ---
    Um, it sounded like there was a gunshot...
[03:03] ---
    Hey!
[03:32] ---
    Look! The last character, "Ichi,"
    is lit up!
[03:37] ---
    Did you know, Conan-kun?
[03:38] ---
    At this festival,
    the characters for "Tenkaichi"
[03:43] ---
    are lit up on three mountains in
    the hopes of a good harvest this year!
[03:50] ---
    Almost entirely a copy
    of Kyoto's Daimonji festival...
[03:54] ---
    Staying at an inn and going
    to a festival sure is nice!
[04:00] ---
    It sure is! Don't you agree, Conan-kun?
[04:02] ---
    Yeah.
[04:04] ---
    If I didn't have that, that is.
[04:07] ---
    I hate having her treat me like a kid!
[04:16] ---
    Excuse me.
[04:18] ---
    Could you take a picture for me?
[04:19] ---
    Certainly!
[04:21] ---
    Here's the camera...
[04:23] ---
    Could you take it with that
    "Ichi" character behind me?
[04:28] ---
    Ready? Here goes!
[04:31] ---
    Go ahead!
[04:33] ---
    A balloon got into the shot...
[04:36] ---
    That's fine. Thanks.
[04:38] ---
    I'm writing about the various
    festivals in this region.
[04:42] ---
    That's what these pictures are for.
[04:46] ---
    You're a writer?
[04:47] ---
    You're so tan that I thought you
    might play sports or something...
[04:52] ---
    I got this from work.
    I often go overseas, you see.
[04:56] ---
    Oh, yes.
[04:59] ---
    You can have this.
[05:02] ---
    Are you sure?
[05:05] ---
    Norikazu Sasai...
[05:07] ---
    I used to write novels under
    the pen name of Tomokazu Imai.
[05:12] ---
    I've heard of him!
[05:14] ---
    I read a lot of his stuff
    in junior high!
[05:17] ---
    That's strange.
[05:19] ---
    I thought that Satoru Imatake
    used that name for his debut...
[05:24] ---
    Imatake and I are old friends.
[05:26] ---
    We used to write things together.
[05:28] ---
    With the Satoru Imatake?!
[05:31] ---
    We both came here today.
[05:33] ---
    Thought we'd drink the night away
[05:36] ---
    in celebration of his
    winning the Naomoto Award.
[05:40] ---
    Sure is hot.
[05:41] ---
    Take off your jacket if you're hot.
[05:45] ---
    This would make a good picture!
[05:47] ---
    Could you take a couple
    more shots for me?
[05:49] ---
    Sure!
[05:58] ---
    Norikazu Sasai-san?
[06:00] ---
    Yes...
[06:01] ---
    I'm Detective Yokomizo from
    the Saitama Police Department.
[06:04] ---
    I'd like to ask you
    about Satoru Imatake.
[06:08] ---
    Has something happened to him?
[06:10] ---
    He's been murdered.
[06:13] ---
    In the hotel room you
    were both staying in.
[06:18] ---
    The murder weapon was a pistol.
[06:20] ---
    The murder took place just
    2 or 3 minutes after 8 PM.
[06:23] ---
    The murderer was a young man.
[06:25] ---
    He fled the room
    immediately afterward.
[06:29] ---
    You're completely sure
    about all of this?
[06:30] ---
    Yes. The TV coverage of
    the festival had just started...
[06:36] ---
    Shot cleanly through the head...
[06:39] ---
    Hey, what are you doing?!
[06:41] ---
    I'm a detective...
[06:45] ---
    Wait, aren't you the famous
    detective Kogoro Mori-san?!
[06:51] ---
    Yes, that would be me...
[06:54] ---
    I read about those difficult cases
    that you solve all the time!
[07:00] ---
    I'm glad to hear it...
[07:02] ---
    I was the one who solved them all.
[07:05] ---
    Please look around as you wish!
[07:08] ---
    I'd be honored if you assisted me!
[07:17] ---
    I see.
[07:22] ---
    Huh?
[07:26] ---
    What's this?
[07:27] ---
    Toothpaste.
[07:35] ---
    A toothbrush! Was the victim
    killed while brushing his teeth?
[07:39] ---
    You're always getting in the way!
[07:41] ---
    What do you think, Detective Mori?
[07:44] ---
    This smells greatly of a robbery.
[07:47] ---
    A robbery?
[07:51] ---
    Only the money has been removed
    from the victim's wallet.
[07:55] ---
    Plus the perpetrator
    ransacked the room.
[07:58] ---
    This was an ordinary crime
    done for monetary gain.
[08:03] ---
    Judging from the fact that
    the victim fell near the front door,
[08:07] ---
    most likely someone had
    knocked on the door
[08:10] ---
    and shot him the instant he opened it.
[08:14] ---
    But Detective Mori!
[08:16] ---
    What do you think about this?
[08:19] ---
    The robbery was just a disguise--
[08:21] ---
    the real killer was
    the room's other occupant!
[08:24] ---
    Hey now, you can't be serious!
[08:26] ---
    The murder took place around 8, right?
[08:28] ---
    In which case, I have an alibi!
[08:31] ---
    I was at the Tenkaichi Night
    Festival when it happened.
[08:36] ---
    That's where I met Mori-san
    and the others.
[08:38] ---
    Isn't that right?
[08:40] ---
    Yes.
[08:41] ---
    But I believe it was during the last
    half of the festival that we met.
[08:45] ---
    Come on! I was there
    from the very start!
[08:48] ---
    If you think I'm lying...
[08:50] ---
    ...then have this developed.
[08:52] ---
    It should prove that my alibi is real!
[08:54] ---
    Okay! Get this developed right away!
[08:57] ---
    Yes, sir!
[09:01] ---
    Detective Yokomizo is right.
[09:03] ---
    This was no robbery!
[09:05] ---
    The victim and the killer
    knew each other.
[09:08] ---
    It's almost certainly him.
[09:11] ---
    But what's with that big smile?!
[09:14] ---
    Just what sort of alibi does
    he have in that camera?!
[09:20] ---
    Seven pictures in all.
[09:24] ---
    But what do these have
    to do with his alibi?
[09:28] ---
    I took this one!
[09:30] ---
    See! It has Conan-kun's balloon in it!
[09:33] ---
    That's right. We met Sasai-san
    when the "Ichi" character was lit.
[09:37] ---
    But it's past 8:40 when "Ichi" is lit.
[09:42] ---
    The murder took place at 8:02 or 8:03.
[09:44] ---
    I think you could make it
    to the festival grounds in 40 minutes
[09:47] ---
    if you rushed by car.
[09:50] ---
    Detective Yokomizo.
[09:52] ---
    After the first character,
    "Ten," is lit at 8:00,
[09:56] ---
    about how long does it continue to burn?
[09:58] ---
    Usually until about 8:25 or so.
[10:01] ---
    Have a look at this picture!
[10:05] ---
    This proves that he was at the festival
    grounds before 8:25, at the latest.
[10:12] ---
    The murder was at 8:00.
[10:14] ---
    No matter how fast you drive,
[10:16] ---
    it's impossible to go from here
    to the festival grounds in 25 minutes!
[10:22] ---
    Congratulations.
    Your alibi is airtight.
[10:25] ---
    Of course it is!
[10:27] ---
    How can this be?
    How can that picture be there?!
[10:30] ---
    Is photographic alteration
    out of the question?
[10:35] ---
    Multiple exposures or something?
[10:36] ---
    Someone good with
    cameras could easily...
[10:39] ---
    Hey, now. I handed the camera
    directly over to you
[10:42] ---
    and asked you to develop the film.
[10:45] ---
    And besides, it was a disposable camera.
[10:47] ---
    I could have done no such thing.
[10:50] ---
    You were the one who
    developed the film, right?
[10:53] ---
    Yes, sir!
[10:54] ---
    There were no signs of the camera
    or film being tampered with!
[10:57] ---
    See?
[10:59] ---
    Come on, Detective Yokomizo.
[11:00] ---
    You already knew
    he was at the festival.
[11:05] ---
    Yes. I heard from the hotel's front desk
    that Sasai-san left around 7:30.
[11:08] ---
    They remembered because he was
    constantly asking the time.
[11:15] ---
    That was because I wanted to make
    it in time for the "Ten" character.
[11:20] ---
    As you can see,
    I forgot my watch today.
[11:24] ---
    Something bugs me about
    everything you did!
[11:27] ---
    It's almost as if you were
    trying to make an alibi...
[11:29] ---
    Come on, now.
[11:32] ---
    I would appreciate it if you would
    stop wasting time like this
[11:35] ---
    and get to the real task at hand,
[11:37] ---
    like finding out who killed my friend.
[11:45] ---
    Imatake-sensei!
[11:47] ---
    Sensei!
[11:49] ---
    Where did he go?
[11:51] ---
    If you're looking for
    Imatake-san's body,
[11:53] ---
    he was taken down to the station.
[11:55] ---
    Who might you be, anyway?
[11:56] ---
    My name is Yamada, from the monthly
    magazine Literature Era.
[12:00] ---
    I rushed here as soon as the police
    called me, but I guess he really is...
[12:04] ---
    Literature Era? Didn't Imatake-san...
[12:08] ---
    Yes, it published his
    "Heroic Sword Legend" series.
[12:11] ---
    Wait, are you Sasai-sensei?!
[12:14] ---
    Come to think of it,
[12:14] ---
    Imatake did mention that his
    deadline was coming up soon
[12:17] ---
    but he still wasn't done.
[12:19] ---
    That's right!
    His deadline was tomorrow!
[12:23] ---
    Oh no!
[12:25] ---
    Even if I ask someone else to write
    something, there isn't enough time,
[12:27] ---
    and nothing would ever
    be as good as his!
[12:31] ---
    I guess I have no other choice.
[12:37] ---
    Here.
[12:38] ---
    What's this?
[12:40] ---
    Something I wrote a while back.
[12:43] ---
    Imatake kept bugging me
    to show it to him,
[12:45] ---
    so I just happened
    to bring it with me today.
[12:48] ---
    I doubt it compares with
    Imatake's series, though.
[12:51] ---
    No, seeing as you used
    to work with him,
[12:56] ---
    I'm sure the editors
    will all be delighted!
[12:59] ---
    Are you sure?
[13:00] ---
    That's only the prologue
    to an especially long story.
[13:03] ---
    We would be very grateful
[13:05] ---
    if you would continue
    to write for Literature Era...
[13:08] ---
    I don't know, I'm busy enough
    as it is already...
[13:11] ---
    Can't I persuade you somehow?
[13:13] ---
    Very well! I shall write for
    the late Imatake's sake!
[13:19] ---
    Thank you! I have to be going now!
[13:22] ---
    Hey, Detective.
[13:24] ---
    You heard that, right?
[13:25] ---
    It would seem I must hurry
    back home and get to work.
[13:30] ---
    For Imatake, who was killed by
    some idiot who just wanted his money.
[13:35] ---
    There's no question about it--
    he's the killer!
[13:38] ---
    But he has an alibi.
[13:40] ---
    How? How was he able
    to take that picture?!
[13:46] ---
    What's more, the camera was untampered
    with and he had Ran use it.
[13:52] ---
    A picture at 8:50
    wouldn't serve as an alibi.
[13:58] ---
    Darn it! There has to be something!
[14:00] ---
    Something that will bring
    his alibi crumbling down!
[14:03] ---
    Think back to when you met him!
[14:07] ---
    Sorry, but I need to get going.
[14:09] ---
    Not so fast!
[14:11] ---
    That's right!
[14:14] ---
    Sure is hot.
[14:16] ---
    He didn't take his jacket off...
[14:18] ---
    Or maybe he couldn't take it off!
[14:19] ---
    Why not?!
[14:21] ---
    Could you take a picture for me?
[14:23] ---
    Here's the camera...
[14:25] ---
    Could you take it with that
    "Ichi" character behind me?
[14:31] ---
    Wait! I still want to talk to you!
[14:34] ---
    You just never give up!
    Keep harassing me and I'll sue!
[14:39] ---
    Aha, so that's it!
[14:42] ---
    Now I've got this trick figured out!
[14:44] ---
    Just as I thought, he is the killer!
[14:47] ---
    What's more, this was
    a premeditated murder!
[15:00] ---
    I've got the trick behind his
    alibi photo completely figured out!
[15:06] ---
    I better let the detective
    know before it's too late!
[15:09] ---
    Whatever. I'm leaving now.
[15:11] ---
    Not so fast!
[15:13] ---
    I have to do something!
[15:16] ---
    Okay! Time for my secret weapon!
[15:34] ---
    Now to set his pose...
[15:36] ---
    ...arrange the photographs on the desk...
[15:42] ---
    ...and then use this Voice-Altering
    Bow Tie to mimic his voice!
[15:54] ---
    Yikes!
[15:54] ---
    How many times do I have to tell you?!
[15:56] ---
    I have photographic proof it wasn't me!
[15:59] ---
    Please, Detective. Could you
    tell him how incompetent he is?
[16:05] ---
    Incompetent he is.
[16:07] ---
    You really disappoint me,
    Detective Yokomizo!
[16:11] ---
    Mori-san!
[16:13] ---
    I kept quiet so you could
    have all of the credit,
[16:18] ---
    yet you were still fooled by the trick
    used to make that alibi photograph!
[16:24] ---
    So, then he is--
[16:25] ---
    Yes.
[16:26] ---
    The one who killed Mr. Satoru
    Imatake is none other than...
[16:30] ---
    ...the one standing next to you--
    Norikazu Sasai!
[16:34] ---
    Wait just a minute!
[16:37] ---
    Weren't you the one who said
    this was a robbery?!
[16:43] ---
    I said that so you would
    lower your guard.
[16:48] ---
    I knew from the very instant
    I saw the victim
[16:50] ---
    that the murderer was
    an acquaintance of his.
[16:55] ---
    Based on what?
[16:57] ---
    The toothpaste foam
    in the victim's mouth.
[17:00] ---
    His toothbrush was also
    lying on the ground near him.
[17:03] ---
    In other words, the victim
    was brushing his teeth
[17:06] ---
    before he was shot!
[17:08] ---
    So? Everyone brushes their teeth.
[17:13] ---
    Yes.
[17:15] ---
    But it's not very common for people
    to open the front door for strangers
[17:20] ---
    while still brushing
    their teeth, now is it?
[17:27] ---
    One more thing--
    this room's condition.
[17:32] ---
    The murderer fled immediately
    after the gunshot.
[17:38] ---
    Do you think it would be possible
    to ransack this entire room
[17:41] ---
    in such a short amount of time?
[17:45] ---
    Most likely it was done
    purposely before the murder
[17:49] ---
    to make it look like
    an ordinary robbery.
[17:55] ---
    I see.
[17:56] ---
    All of the evidence at the scene
    of the crime seems to point to me.
[18:01] ---
    But I have an alibi.
[18:04] ---
    How do you explain that photograph?
[18:09] ---
    This is most likely
    a picture that you took
[18:12] ---
    when you came
    to a previous festival.
[18:15] ---
    You then held on to the camera
    until today's festival,
[18:19] ---
    where you ran into Ran and had
    her continue taking more pictures.
[18:25] ---
    Although it was
    an extremely simple trick,
[18:28] ---
    the fact that you were
    wearing the exact same clothes
[18:30] ---
    made it easy to mistake
    it for a picture you took today!
[18:34] ---
    That's right!
[18:35] ---
    The reason you endured
    the heat and kept your jacket on
[18:38] ---
    was because you didn't want to look
    any different than in the 1st photo!
[18:43] ---
    Am I wrong?
[18:48] ---
    What a splendid sense
    of imagination, Detective Mori!
[18:51] ---
    But do you have any proof that I took
    that picture at a previous festival?!
[18:58] ---
    Why, yes, I do!
[19:01] ---
    What?!
[19:07] ---
    Look! It's right here
    in this picture! Your--
[19:10] ---
    Hey, you!
[19:13] ---
    Don't be bothering Dad!
[19:21] ---
    Dad?
[19:22] ---
    Oh no!
[19:28] ---
    I leave the rest to you,
    Detective Yokomizo.
[19:31] ---
    Right.
[19:32] ---
    His wrist?
[19:42] ---
    As you can see,
    I forgot my watch today.
[19:58] ---
    What are you doing?!
[20:02] ---
    How do you explain this?
[20:04] ---
    Your wrist is perfectly tan
    in your alibi photograph!
[20:09] ---
    Yet your wrist is white now!
[20:14] ---
    The truth is that you took
    this picture one year ago!
[20:17] ---
    Isn't that right, Sasai-san?!
[20:23] ---
    I concede defeat, Detective.
[20:28] ---
    I decided to get rid of
    Imatake one year ago!
[20:32] ---
    I wanted to take his place
    at the top of the literary world!
[20:37] ---
    Yes. One year ago,
    it was decided that my work
[20:41] ---
    would be published as
    a series in Literature Era.
[20:44] ---
    But right before the deadline,
    the editors switched to Imatake instead!
[20:50] ---
    Simply because he had
    a better reputation than I.
[20:54] ---
    I saw that series as my last
    chance to make it as a writer.
[21:01] ---
    But then he had to
    go and snatch it away,
[21:03] ---
    almost as if he was ridiculing me!
[21:05] ---
    So, then you killed him?
[21:08] ---
    Yes. I killed him.
[21:16] ---
    Miss.
[21:17] ---
    About Imatake's work
    that won the Naomoto Award...
[21:21] ---
    We both thought up the story for it
[21:25] ---
    back when Imatake
    and I used to write together.
[21:29] ---
    Though I suppose nobody
    would believe me now.
[21:56] ---
    Just my imagination
[21:58] ---
    Playing with threads around my finger
    while drinking lukewarm tea
[22:10] ---
    Let's walk lightly
    to the bossa nova rhythm
[22:17] ---
    The puzzle pieces are in my hands
[22:23] ---
    That's right...
[22:29] ---
    I was in the same place last week
    but with different clothes
[22:40] ---
    Step by step,
    there's no reason to be anxious
[22:47] ---
    Case by case,
    I don't care if you laugh
[22:54] ---
    Beyond the countless days,
    she's waiting for me
[23:02] ---
    I gotta go my own way
[23:16] ---
    Excellent detective work,
    Detective Mori!
[23:20] ---
    It was all thanks to you that
    we were able to solve the case
[23:23] ---
    and arrest Sasai!
[23:26] ---
    Case? Arrest? Sasai?
[23:29] ---
    Oh, stop pretending!
[23:31] ---
    Uh oh!
[23:32] ---
    I always knew Sasai was the killer...
[23:34] ---
    ...I just wasted time
    to make filler! Get it?!
[23:50] ---
    Keep laughing!
[24:03] ---
    Why aren't you going in?
[24:04] ---
    You have business in there, don't you?
[24:10] ---
    You went out with Shinichi?!
[24:13] ---
    The lock has marks on it
    from being tampered with...
[24:16] ---
    It's a kidnapping, isn't it?
[24:17] ---
    I've finally found you, Shinichi...
[24:21] ---
    Shinichi! Come out this instant!
[24:23] ---
    I know you're in there!
