[00:02] ---
    A racing second hand,
    shining shooting stars!
[00:03] ---
    Conan's logic is good medicine
    for hearts tired by modern society!
[00:07] ---
    Today's case is of a different color!
    What flowers have thorns?
[00:10] ---
    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!
[01:54] ---
    World Art Award Party.
[01:59] ---
    Did she win that big of an award?
[02:08] ---
    Look! It's Aochi Marika, the actress!
[02:20] ---
    Look! It's Takahata Koji,
    the soccer player!
[02:23] ---
    Geez. Knock it off,
    you're acting uncool...
[02:26] ---
    Wow! So many famous people,
    from celebrities to sports players!
[02:32] ---
    You idiots! Who do you think I am?!
[02:35] ---
    I said let go! I was asked to come here!
[02:39] ---
    Dad?!
[02:39] ---
    Old man?!
[02:42] ---
    Don't you bums even know
[02:44] ---
    what the unrivaled
    Detective Mori Kogoro looks like?!
[02:47] ---
    I'm very sorry, but only
    those with invitations may enter.
[02:51] ---
    Ozaki Midori (33) Okano Rika's Assistant
[02:52] ---
    Wait. I called him here.
[02:55] ---
    Now do you see?
[02:57] ---
    The peerless Mori Kogoro-*sama
    *has arrived on the scene
[03:03] ---
    to investigate a murder threat!
[03:06] ---
    M-Mori-san!
[03:10] ---
    "The Flower Scent Murder Case."
[03:35] ---
    Okano Rika (28)
    Avant-garde Flower Arranger
[03:40] ---
    We received the threat
    letter several days ago.
[03:46] ---
    Flowers of death will bloom
    in the Bay Front Hotel.
[03:50] ---
    It's clearly a prank.
    You're taking this too seriously.
[03:55] ---
    Just ignore it.
[03:56] ---
    But, Sensei. It could be real,
    so there's no harm in being cautious.
[04:02] ---
    It's just some people getting
    back at me for winning the award.
[04:06] ---
    Paying them any attention
    would be a waste of time.
[04:11] ---
    Who's she?
[04:12] ---
    Okano Rika. An avant-garde
    flower-arranging artist.
[04:16] ---
    You know her;
    she's on TV all the time.
[04:18] ---
    Avant-garde flower-arranging?
[04:20] ---
    She's amazing! She makes
    flower buds open right up!
[04:25] ---
    Sorta like a magic trick!
[04:27] ---
    You could call it that, but would
    you also call me an art world fraud?
[04:33] ---
    What a nasty woman...
[04:35] ---
    Actually, the secret is in the temperature.
[04:38] ---
    Oh?
[04:42] ---
    Mr. Shiraki!
[04:44] ---
    I hear you were sent some stupid threat letter.
[04:44] ---
    Shiraki Daisuke (58) Owner of Bay Front Hotel
[04:48] ---
    Y-Yes.
[04:49] ---
    I don't expect any, of course,
[04:52] ---
    but I assume there'll be no
    changes to today's party?
[04:56] ---
    That's--
[04:57] ---
    Don't worry.
[04:59] ---
    This party is for me,
    so it will all go as scheduled.
[05:02] ---
    But what if something happens?
[05:05] ---
    It's not just this party.
[05:06] ---
    Don't forget the Shiraki Group,
    which has always backed you up.
[05:12] ---
    No, of course I won't!
[05:16] ---
    I'll see you around.
[05:22] ---
    What a jerk...
[05:24] ---
    He's the owner of this hotel and
    the company that finances her art.
[05:30] ---
    Bastard thinks money can buy him art!
[05:34] ---
    His face makes me sick!
[05:39] ---
    Wow! These flowers are--
[05:46] ---
    Don't get into trouble now.
[05:47] ---
    What is this?
[05:49] ---
    Liquid nitrogen.
[05:51] ---
    Isn't that the stuff
    that can freeze stuff fast?
[05:55] ---
    That's right! You're really smart!
[05:58] ---
    It's the Sensei's art secret.
[06:01] ---
    Is she the one who thought up the idea?
[06:03] ---
    She made it popular,
    more than anything.
[06:07] ---
    Made it popular?
[06:16] ---
    This looks great!
[06:18] ---
    Stop that, Dad!
    You're embarrassing us!
[06:21] ---
    Umm... Are you the famous
    Detective Mori-sama?
[06:25] ---
    Yep!
[06:26] ---
    I'm sorry to bother you,
    but I have a favor to ask.
[06:34] ---
    I came to tell him it's almost time,
    but he won't respond.
[06:40] ---
    I see. Say, are there any spare keys?
[06:43] ---
    Y-Yes! Right here!
[06:56] ---
    Mr. Shiraki!
[07:08] ---
    Whose tie is that around his neck?
[07:10] ---
    It was his.
[07:13] ---
    Definitely looks like he
    was strangled to death.
[07:16] ---
    But something's strange about this body.
[07:20] ---
    What do you mean?
[07:21] ---
    When did you get in here?!
[07:23] ---
    I mean, look!
    The knot on the tie is in front!
[07:27] ---
    That's true...
[07:29] ---
    I get it! The killer strangled
    him from the front!
[07:34] ---
    You'd expect him to put up quite a
    fight if he was being strangled,
[07:38] ---
    especially from the front.
[07:40] ---
    In other words, the killer
    was someone strong enough
[07:44] ---
    that the victim's struggling
    posed no problem at all.
[07:48] ---
    A man... and a rather large one, at that!
[07:51] ---
    But it looks like he
    didn't put up a fight at all.
[07:54] ---
    What?!
[07:56] ---
    He'd still struggle, no matter
    how strong the killer was, right?
[08:00] ---
    Yes. Like scratching at the killer
    or trying to undo the necktie.
[08:06] ---
    Right?
[08:07] ---
    Yet, look at his hand.
[08:09] ---
    There are no marks on his nails at all.
[08:12] ---
    Interesting. There aren't
    any marks on his nails.
[08:16] ---
    No, that's no guarantee.
[08:19] ---
    It's possible to black out instantly
    if strangled with enough force.
[08:25] ---
    The killer must've been someone
    as strong as a pro wrestler!
[08:28] ---
    Yeah. Check at once
    to see if any such people
[08:33] ---
    are among the party guests!
[08:34] ---
    Yes, sir!
[08:35] ---
    C'mon, now. Isn't that a little too simple?
[08:38] ---
    In any case, we can't move the
    body until medical examiners arrive.
[08:45] ---
    Conan! Are you still here?!
[08:48] ---
    Get out, you!
[08:51] ---
    I'd like to speak with
    whomever's in charge.
[08:54] ---
    Yes, that would be me.
[08:57] ---
    I'm Megure of
    Police Investigative Unit ♪1.
[09:00] ---
    I hear the owner was killed.
    So, what do you plan to do?
[09:04] ---
    Have the party cancelled
    immediately, of course.
[09:08] ---
    You can't!
[09:09] ---
    Huh?!
[09:10] ---
    We've invited all these
    high-profile guests.
[09:13] ---
    Canceling this event
    would tarnish my career!
[09:17] ---
    Sensei...
[09:20] ---
    What selfishness!
[09:22] ---
    Listen, you!
    This is a premeditated murder!
[09:26] ---
    I know that, obviously!
[09:28] ---
    But the target was the owner, not me.
[09:33] ---
    That means there's no danger now.
[09:35] ---
    Maybe so, but...
[09:38] ---
    She's a really selfish woman...
[09:41] ---
    Still...
[09:43] ---
    Bastard thinks money can buy him art!
[09:46] ---
    His face makes me sick!
[09:49] ---
    Don't tell me she--
[09:51] ---
    But she wouldn't
    have the strength for this.
[09:55] ---
    Inspector!
[09:56] ---
    I found several guests
    matching your description!
[10:00] ---
    Anaconda Katagiri, the pro wrestler,
[10:02] ---
    Imamura Kotaro,
    the football player, and--
[10:06] ---
    Anaconda Katagiri-sama once
    got into a fight with the owner
[10:12] ---
    about royalties, at a dinner show.
[10:15] ---
    He's the one! No doubt about it!
[10:17] ---
    We can only hope the incident
    is that straightforward...
[10:22] ---
    Thank you all for coming
    today to Okano Rika-*sensei'*s
[10:28] ---
    World Art Award congratulatory party!
[10:38] ---
    Yeah?
[10:44] ---
    Anaconda Katagiri (35) Pro Wrestler
[10:46] ---
    What?
[10:47] ---
    Anaconda Katagiri-san.
    Could we have a word with you?
[10:52] ---
    Later! I want some more food!
[10:56] ---
    Damn you!
[11:06] ---
    Inspector! He has an alibi!
[11:10] ---
    This guy... No, Anaconda-san's been
    with his friends the whole time.
[11:15] ---
    Several people vouch for him!
[11:17] ---
    Sorry!
[11:23] ---
    The inspector's in trouble!
    He says he needs your help!
[11:34] ---
    There's a faint smell of chloroform.
[11:36] ---
    Hold on!
[11:38] ---
    If he were knocked out first,
[11:40] ---
    even someone weak could strangle him!
[11:44] ---
    But how did they get him
    to breathe the chloroform?
[11:50] ---
    Something's not right about
    this flower... What could it be?
[11:55] ---
    Wait a minute!
    When he was in the dressing room,
[11:57] ---
    the flower on his chest...
[11:59] ---
    ...was closed!
[12:02] ---
    Yet, now it's open!
[12:08] ---
    His dying was the greatest
    commemoration gift ever!
[12:13] ---
    He was nothing but a stepping
    stone on my way to fame!
[12:17] ---
    A stepping stone
    is just a stepping stone!
[12:20] ---
    I was never his puppet!
[12:23] ---
    Sensei! What if someone hears you?!
[12:25] ---
    Midori-san. You just need to
    shut up and handle my management.
[12:32] ---
    Who do you have to thank
    that you can make a living?!
[12:35] ---
    I'm sorry for talking out of line.
[12:38] ---
    Man, she's a real witch...
[12:41] ---
    Coming!
[12:45] ---
    Oh, little boy!
[12:47] ---
    They say it's almost time for the show.
[12:49] ---
    Oh, thank you!
[12:51] ---
    Sensei. You should be going now.
[13:13] ---
    Yes! Here we go!
[13:18] ---
    Chloroform, just as I thought.
    And this other bottle has...
[13:23] ---
    ...a cyanide compound?!
[13:26] ---
    Is the killer still going
    after someone else?!
[13:29] ---
    But how?
[13:35] ---
    Ice cubes?
[13:39] ---
    Chloroform ice!
[13:42] ---
    Now I see!
[13:44] ---
    The frozen chloroform slowly
    melted in the room's temperature
[13:49] ---
    and the victim inhaled it!
[13:53] ---
    And this time, it'll be cyanide!
[13:56] ---
    But how?
[14:03] ---
    A flower petal?
[14:06] ---
    She's amazing! She makes
    flower buds open right up!
[14:12] ---
    It's the Sensei's art secret.
[14:14] ---
    So the closed flower
    had a secret hidden inside it!
[14:19] ---
    The flower had been frozen, too!
[14:22] ---
    The frozen chloroform
    was placed inside,
[14:25] ---
    then the flower was frozen.
[14:31] ---
    No one would suspect a thing this way--
[14:33] ---
    because all the party guests
    were wearing flowers on their chests.
[14:38] ---
    And then, when the flower
    warmed up in the room's temperature,
[14:42] ---
    it started to re-open,
    and the chloroform also vaporized.
[14:47] ---
    The owner breathed in the
    chloroform and went comatose,
[14:51] ---
    upon which he was
    slowly strangled to death.
[14:54] ---
    His dying was the greatest
    commemoration gift ever!
[14:59] ---
    If Okano Rika is the killer,
    who will she go after next?!
[15:10] ---
    What's wrong?! Fight me!
[15:18] ---
    The target's flower should be closed!
[15:21] ---
    I have to find it quickly!
[15:24] ---
    Cyanide evaporates at 25.7C!
[15:27] ---
    Once the flower opens, it's all over!
[15:32] ---
    Thank you for your patience,
    ladies and gentlemen!
[15:35] ---
    Here is Okano Rika's
    Congratulatory One-Man Show!
[16:13] ---
    Damn!
[16:15] ---
    The ice is beginning to melt!
[16:17] ---
    At this temperature,
    so will the killer's ice!
[16:20] ---
    Wait a minute!
[16:21] ---
    All the guests were given flowers at
    the reception desk beforehand!
[16:30] ---
    In which case, the flower
    would've opened long ago!
[16:34] ---
    Was I over-analyzing things?!
    Was the owner the only target?
[16:39] ---
    No, then there'd be no
    reason to have cyanide ready!
[16:44] ---
    The killer must be planning
    to murder someone with it!
[16:49] ---
    That's not it! Where is it?!
    Where could it be?!
[17:06] ---
    She's amazing! She makes
    flower buds open right up!
[17:11] ---
    Yes! That's it! Don't tell
    me she plans to kill her?!
[17:26] ---
    No good! I'm not gonna make it!
[17:31] ---
    That's...
[17:32] ---
    Alright!
[17:42] ---
    What?!
[17:49] ---
    W-What the...
[17:51] ---
    This kid has ruined my show!
[17:56] ---
    You damn kid!
    What were you thinking?!
[17:59] ---
    I'm sorry! I swung it
    and it suddenly shot out!
[18:03] ---
    What were you--
[18:09] ---
    Hey, now!
[18:12] ---
    What's wrong, mister?!
[18:14] ---
    What is it, Mori-kun?!
[18:16] ---
    Have you found a
    clue to solving the case?!
[18:19] ---
    It was actually I who
    had him interrupt the show.
[18:24] ---
    Why would you do that?!
    You'll pay for this!
[18:29] ---
    The moment the flowers opened
[18:31] ---
    was to be the moment your life closed.
[18:35] ---
    Come again?!
[18:37] ---
    Mori-kun! Can't you explain more clearly?
[18:41] ---
    Inspector. Please seal
    up all the arranged flowers.
[18:44] ---
    Double and triple seal them
    so that no air can leak out.
[18:49] ---
    Hidden inside the flowers is
    the secret to the owner's murder...
[18:54] ---
    ...and a failed murder plot!
[18:57] ---
    Quickly!
[18:58] ---
    R-Right!
[19:05] ---
    We've bagged them all up,
    Mori-kun! Now talk to us!
[19:09] ---
    The method behind Shiraki-san's
    murder and the other murder plot
[19:15] ---
    was the very theme of Rika-san's
    avant-garde flower-arranging...
[19:17] ---
    Yes... making closed flowers open!
[19:21] ---
    Then Okano Rika-san is the killer?!
[19:24] ---
    Was it you?!
[19:25] ---
    N-No!
[19:26] ---
    What nonsense is this?!
    Why would I have to kill the owner?!
[19:32] ---
    That's right. It wasn't you.
[19:34] ---
    Because you were the
    next to die after the owner!
[19:38] ---
    What?! I was?!
[19:40] ---
    Then just who is the killer?!
[19:43] ---
    The person who put
    the flower on the owner
[19:46] ---
    and prepared the flowers on the stage.
[19:49] ---
    Rika-san. You know who that was.
[19:53] ---
    Yes. It was your manager...
    Ozaki Midori-san!
[19:59] ---
    Midori tried to kill me?
[20:01] ---
    After all, only Midori-san could've
    rigged the flowers on the stage.
[20:07] ---
    But if she's the killer,
[20:10] ---
    she would've died from
    the flowers she set, too!
[20:13] ---
    Yes. She intended to enact
    revenge and die with Rika-san...
[20:19] ---
    Revenge?
[20:20] ---
    Yes.
[20:21] ---
    Her motive was most likely...
[20:23] ---
    Most likely, her motive was...
[20:26] ---
    She made it popular,
    more than anything.
[20:30] ---
    Judging from what she said,
[20:34] ---
    Rika-san probably didn't come
    up with the flower-opening idea.
[20:41] ---
    That's right. I had to
    make Shiraki and Rika pay.
[20:46] ---
    My sister Haruka started this
    avant-garde flower-arranging,
[20:50] ---
    and Okano Rika was her student!
[20:53] ---
    But she got Shiraki to sponsor her
[20:56] ---
    in an attempt to become the
    top avant-garde flower arranger!
[21:04] ---
    In the art world, it's natural for
    the skilled to kick down the unskilled.
[21:09] ---
    But Okano Rika knew
    she could never be the best
[21:11] ---
    as long as my sister was around.
[21:13] ---
    So she used dirty tactics and
    Shiraki's support to pressure her
[21:17] ---
    into being unable to
    take credit for what Rika stole!
[21:22] ---
    On top of that, it was
    my sister who came up with
[21:25] ---
    the idea of opening closed flowers!
[21:27] ---
    And Rika decided to--
[21:30] ---
    What happened to your sister after that?
[21:35] ---
    She lost all hope in
    everything and took her own life...
[21:42] ---
    Rika doesn't love flowers in the slightest.
[21:45] ---
    She only used them
    to gain fame and money.
[21:50] ---
    I learned that all too well
[21:53] ---
    after I changed my name
    and became her manager!
[21:55] ---
    That's why she had to pay!
[23:36] ---
    Through this incident, Okano Rika's
    plagiarism was made public,
[23:43] ---
    meaning she'll probably never
    step onto a center stage ever again.
[23:47] ---
    As for me...
[23:49] ---
    You damn kid!
[23:50] ---
    ...I wound up being punished by
    the old guy, who slept through it all.
[23:56] ---
    Oww!
[24:03] ---
    There's still a good chance
    the criminal group is nearby.
[24:09] ---
    So he's the one responsible?
[24:13] ---
    Don't do it.
[24:16] ---
    You've been asked to
    kill that Akabane guy, right?
[24:20] ---
    Wow! So cool!
[24:23] ---
    The officer, too?!
[24:26] ---
    On the next Conan:
    "The Robber Hospitalization Case."
[24:47] ---
    Next Conan's hint:
[24:49] ---
    Cream puffs.
[24:51] ---
    Next episode the old man ends up in the hospital.
[24:53] ---
    "Let's go, Megure-kun!" said Detective Takagi.
[24:55] ---
    What?
