SIGN    Mori Detective Agency
[00:00] Megure
    I'm sure you haven't forgotten, Mori-kun,
[00:03] Megure
    about how much trouble you caused me
    when you worked under me in investigations.
[00:09] Kogoro
    Why did you suddenly drop
    in and bring up the past?
[00:13] Megure
    Can't you figure it out?
[00:16] Megure
    You're the only one I can count on.
[00:20] Megure
    There's no time.
[00:21] Megure
    I need you to help me solve a case.
[00:25] Kogoro
    I-Inspector...
[00:27] Kogoro
    Raise your head, sir.
[00:31] Conan
    It must be a pretty big case if
    Inspector Megure is this desperate.
[00:36] Kogoro
    What case is it?
[00:39] Megure
    This.

[00:45] Kogoro
    I thought the suspect in this
    case was already arrested.
[00:49] Kogoro
    Wasn't it solved?
[00:51] Conan
    Right?
[00:52] Megure
    Just before we were going
    to start prosecuting him,
[00:57] Megure
    it was all overturned!

[02:58] Conan
    "The Job Request From Inspector Megure!"
[03:04] Megure
    As you know, the incident
    occurred three weeks ago.
[03:09] Megure
    The famous Japanese literature scholar,
[03:12] Megure
    Reigan Yutaka, was found stabbed to
    death in his home in Yotsubadai.
SIGN    Reigan Yutaka (70)
    Japanese Literature Scholar
[03:17] Megure
    He was killed the previous
    night around eight o'clock.
[03:22] Megure
    It wasn't long before we had a suspect.
SIGN    Maihama Ryuji (33)
    Suspect
SIGN    Yao Koichi (35)
    Witness
[03:25] Yao
    I saw him last night around eight.
[03:37] Yao
    I'd seen him at a bar near the station.
[03:40] Yao
    He said he was Reigan-sensei's nephew.
[03:44] Megure
    He was the victim's nephew and
    self-proclaimed event producer Maihama Ryuji.
SIGN    Furniture Home Improvement Store
[03:53] Megure
    We learned the day before the murder,
[03:55] Megure
    Maihama purchased the knife
    that was the murder weapon.
SIGN    Reigan Yutaka Murder Investigation HQ
[04:01] Takagi
    On the night of the murder,
[04:04] Takagi
    Maihama claims he was in his
    apartment in Sasago-cho,
[04:08] Takagi
    but no one can verify his alibi.
[04:10] Chiba
    He also claims he purchased
    but lost the knife.
[04:15] Megure
    Maihama is Reigan's only living relative.
[04:20] Megure
    Apparently he was telling everyone that
    Reigan's fortune would eventually become his.
[04:26] Megure
    However...
[04:27] Reigan
    I've remained a bachelor until now,
[04:29] Reigan
    but I finally found someone I want to marry.
[04:47] Megure
    Maihama had no alibi.
[04:50] Megure
    His uncle's fortune was his motive,
[04:52] Megure
    and he bought the knife the day before.
[04:55] Megure
    There's even a witness who saw him at the
    crime scene when the murder took place.
[05:05] Megure
    Maihama Ryuji,
[05:07] Megure
    you're under arrest for the
    murder of Reigan Yutaka.
[05:10] Maihama
    I didn't do it.
[05:13] Megure
    Even after his arrest, Maihama
    continued to deny that he did it,
[05:17] Megure
    but naturally, we could still prosecute.
[05:19] Megure
    However, yesterday, with two days
    remaining on his detention period,
[05:24] Megure
    he gave an unbelievable statement.
[05:27] Kogoro
    Which was?
[05:29] Maihama
    At this rate, I'm going to be framed
    for murder, so I'll tell you the truth.
[05:35] Maihama
    I actually have an alibi.
[05:39] Takagi
    An alibi?
[05:40] Maihama
    The night my uncle was killed, I was
    committing a burglary in Sasago-cho.
[05:46] Takagi
    Burglary?!
[05:47] Megure
    This is it.
SIGN    Sasago-cho Burglar
[05:53] Kogoro
    Now that you mention it,
    I remember that case.
[05:56] Kogoro
    A burglar entered a home in Sasago-cho.
[05:59] Kogoro
    After staying there for over an hour,
    he stole about 500 thousand yen in cash.
[06:05] Kogoro
    The burglar's face wasn't seen,
    but Maihama claims it was him.
[06:11] Maihama
    While I was there, I had
    something to drink and eat.
[06:17] Megure
    It's true that the burglar drank and ate.
[06:19] Megure
    The teeth marks we collected
    from the food matched Maihama's.
[06:24] Megure
    We even found the 500 thousand yen he hid.
[06:31] Megure
    Maihama was definitely the burglar.
[06:35] Megure
    But if that's true, then he has an alibi.
[06:40] Kogoro
    An alibi?
[06:41] Conan
    How?
[06:42] Megure
    The burglar entered the
    home in Sasago-cho at 7PM.
[06:47] Megure
    Since he was there for over
    an hour, he left after eight.
[06:53] Megure
    Meanwhile, Reigan was murdered in his
    home in Yotsubadai around eight as well.
[06:59] Megure
    It takes over an hour by car to travel
    between Sasago-cho and Yotsubadai.
[07:04] Kogoro
    So it was impossible for
    Maihama to murder Reigan.
[07:09] Kogoro
    But, Inspector...
[07:10] Kogoro
    There's a witness who says he saw Maihama at
    the crime scene at the time of the murder.
[07:15] Megure
    Yesterday, that witness said...
[07:19] Yao
    I actually lied about seeing him.
[07:22] All
    What?!
[07:24] Yao
    He seemed like a bad guy when I saw him
    at the bar, so I thought I'd frame him.
[07:29] Yao
    But I felt guilty about it.
[07:32] Yao
    I'm sorry for making it up.
[07:34] Both
    He made it up?!
[07:36] Megure
    Furthermore, regarding the knife...
[07:38] Maihama
    I bought it to use during the burglary.
[07:42] Maihama
    I buried it behind my apartment
    building after I used it.
[07:46] Megure
    This is it.
[07:49] Megure
    It's the same as the one
    found in Reigan's body.
[07:52] Kogoro
    He must've planned all of it
[07:55] Kogoro
    so he wouldn't lose his inheritance and
    to avoid being convicted of murder.
[08:00] Conan
    It's too convenient.
[08:03] Kogoro
    It's obvious he'd be a suspect
    if Reigan were murdered
[08:07] Kogoro
    so he allowed himself to be
    arrested so he could overturn it.
[08:13] Kogoro
    The witness who went back on his testimony
    is working with him, of course.
[08:18] Conan
    He probably just bought
    another one of these knives.
[08:23] Megure
    I know he committed the
    burglary to create an alibi.
[08:29] Megure
    The problem is how in two locations,
    separated by an hour's travel,
[08:34] Megure
    a single human committed
    a burglary in Sasago-cho
[08:38] Megure
    while murdering Reigan in Yotsubadai.
[08:41] Megure
    Unless we can solve that, even if we
    can prosecute him for the burglary,
[08:46] Megure
    which was material evidence, we can't
    prosecute him for Reigan's murder.
[08:50] Megure
    So we spent all day yesterday
    trying to solve the problem.
[08:57] Megure
    However, we ran into a dead end.
[09:01] Megure
    That's why I'm asking for your help!
[09:06] Kogoro
    Inspector, I, Mori Kogoro, shall assist you!
[09:10] Megure
    Honestly, I have no faith in you.
[09:14] Megure
    But when you're asleep, your detective
    skills become mind-boggling.
[09:19] Kogoro
    Uh, I'm not sure how to respond to that.
[09:23] Kogoro
    A burglary and a murder in two
    different places at the same time.
[09:35] Kogoro
    I've got it, Inspector.
[09:37] Kogoro
    Immediately after committing
    the burglary in Sasago-cho,
[09:41] Kogoro
    he killed Reigan who he'd
    asked to meet him nearby.
[09:44] Kogoro
    Then he put the body in a car and drove
    it to Reigan's home in Yotsubadai.
[09:51] Megure
    Listen, Mori-kun...
[09:54] Conan
    Wouldn't the forensics team have
    noticed if the body had been moved?
[10:00] Megure
    Reigan was murdered inside his own home.
[10:04] Megure
    There's no sign the murder was staged.
[10:08] Megure
    If anything was staged, it was the burglary.
[10:13] Kogoro
    Of course. Go away.
[10:17] Kogoro
    About the burglary.
[10:19] Kogoro
    It's strange that he stayed
    there for an entire hour.
[10:23] Megure
    We're certain that the burglar entered
    the home in Sasago-cho at 7 PM.
[10:29] Megure
    Tenyama Hide-san, who lives alone,
[10:31] Megure
    had just begun to watch the seven
    o'clock news while eating dinner.
[10:37] Maihama
    Don't move.
[10:38] Maihama
    Move, and I'll kill you.
[10:42] Maihama
    And I don't want you seeing my face.
SIGN    Tenyama Hide (73)
    Victim
[10:47] Maihama
    Where's the money?
[10:51] Maihama
    Don't underestimate me!
[10:54] Megure
    Though she tried to tell him
    where she kept her money,
[10:56] Megure
    Hide-san was suddenly struck
    and lost consciousness.
[10:59] Megure
    She awoke an hour later at eight.
[11:03] Megure
    She heard the sounds of a TV
    show that starts at eight.
[11:09] Maihama
    You're finally awake.
[11:11] Maihama
    I looked for your money, but I couldn't
    find it, so I've been waiting.
[11:15] Maihama
    Where's the money?
[11:16] Hide
    In the middle drawer of the dresser.
[11:19] Maihama
    Thanks.
[11:21] Maihama
    I can't have you calling
    the police right away.
[11:28] Megure
    The second time Hide-san
    awoke was the next morning.
[11:38] Hide
    Wh-What is this?!
[11:42] Hide
    The money!
[11:43] Hide
    The money in the dresser!
[11:49] Hide
    Hello, police?
[11:51] Hide
    I've been burglarized!
[12:00] Conan
    I see. So that's how it is.
[12:04] Conan
    Hey, mister.
[12:05] Kogoro
    I've figured it out, Inspector.
[12:07] Conan
    Huh?
[12:08] Megure
    Really?
[12:09] Kogoro
    Maihama stepped out for a while.
[12:12] Kogoro
    There are two points to focus on.
[12:14] Kogoro
    First, that Maihama blindfolded Hide-san,
[12:17] Kogoro
    and second, that he knocked her out twice.
[12:20] Maihama
    Don't underestimate me!
[12:23] Kogoro
    After entering at seven and
    knocking Hide-san unconscious,
[12:26] Kogoro
    Maihama recorded the TV program.
[12:29] Kogoro
    He quickly drove to Yotsubadai
    and murdered Reigan.
[12:34] Kogoro
    It happened after eight.
[12:38] Kogoro
    Then he returned to Sasago-cho,
    replayed the video he recorded,
[12:44] Kogoro
    and woke Hide-san.
[12:47] Kogoro
    It was probably after nine by then,
[12:50] Kogoro
    but because of the audio of
    the TV show Maihama recorded,
SIGN    It's 8 o'clock! Music Top Ten
[12:55] Kogoro
    he made her believe it was eight.
[12:57] Hide
    In the middle drawer of the dresser.
[13:01] Kogoro
    Then he knocked out Hide-san again,
[13:04] Kogoro
    and made it appear as though
    he'd been there for an hour.
[13:09] Kogoro
    In other words, Maihama wasn't in Hide-san's
    home the whole time after he entered.
[13:14] Kogoro
    He left and traveled back
    and forth to Yotsubadai
[13:17] Kogoro
    while Hide-san was knocked out.
[13:21] Conan
    Wow. That's perfect, mister.
[13:25] Kogoro
    This is the first time the
    Inspector's asked for my help.
[13:27] Kogoro
    How could I disappoint him?
[13:30] Megure
    Mori-kun.
[13:32] Kogoro
    No, it was an honor to serve you.
[13:36] Megure
    Actually, we considered that possibility.
[13:40] Megure
    However, it's impossible.
[13:42] Kogoro
    Huh?
[13:44] Megure
    I forgot to mention that
    when Tenyama Hide-san awoke,
[13:49] Megure
    she heard not only the sounds of the
    TV show, but also a fire truck siren.
[13:54] Megure
    Maihama demanded the location of the
    money while she could hear that.
[14:00] Megure
    We confirmed with the fire
    department that eight
[14:02] Megure
    was the only time a fire truck was
    dispatched in Sasago-cho that night.
[14:07] Kogoro
    Which means...
[14:09] Megure
    Yeah. Maihama never left.
[14:14] Kogoro
    No way.
[14:17] Conan
    If he didn't want his face to be seen,
    he only needed to wear a mask.
[14:22] Conan
    There must be some reason he
    blocked Hide-san's vision.
[14:27] Conan
    But why?
[14:37] Conan
    At 8PM on the night in question,
[14:40] Conan
    Maihama Ryuji was threatening
    Tenyama Hide-san in Sasago-cho.
[14:44] Kogoro
    So how did he kill Reigan in Yotsubadai?
[14:50] Megure
    Is it not coming yet?
[14:53] Kogoro
    What?
[14:53] Kogoro
    Who's coming?
[14:55] Megure
    Not who, but those weird
    exclamations you always make.
[15:01] Kogoro
    It's not that convenient.
[15:05] Kogoro
    But, Inspector,
[15:07] Kogoro
    are we sure Hide-san heard
    the fire truck siren?
[15:11] Megure
    Yeah.
[15:12] Megure
    We checked with her, so I'm certain of it.
[15:15] Hide
    Yes. I know I heard it.
[15:18] Hide
    And I smelled something burning.
[15:22] Conan
    Smelled something burning?
[15:25] Megure
    It doesn't make sense that
    she smelled anything though.
[15:29] Megure
    Apparently it was a prank call.
[15:32] Kogoro
    In other words, there was no fire.
[15:37] Megure
    Yeah.
[15:38] Megure
    But a fire truck was stilled dispatched.
[15:42] Kogoro
    Maybe hearing the siren made her
    think she smelled something.
[15:46] Megure
    Probably.
[15:48] Megure
    She seemed to have it together,
    but she's an old woman.
[15:52] Megure
    She was confused about all sorts of things.
[15:54] Conan
    Did she mention something else?
[15:57] Megure
    Yeah.
[15:58] Megure
    She claimed she didn't hear
    a sound she expected to hear.
[16:01] Hide
    I heard the TV and the siren,
[16:04] Hide
    but I didn't hear the bathtub notification.
[16:08] Hide
    I set it to be ready at 8 o'clock.
[16:11] Hide
    Strange, isn't it?
[16:12] Megure
    I see...
[16:14] Kogoro
    Maybe she just missed it.
[16:16] Megure
    Probably.
[16:18] Megure
    Anyway, is it still not coming, Mori-kun?
[16:21] Kogoro
    What?
[16:21] Megure
    Get sleepy already.
[16:24] Kogoro
    But I got plenty of sleep last night.
[16:28] Megure
    You're unbelievable.
[16:31] Megure
    It reminds me of all the cases that
    were nearly unsolved because of you.
[16:37] Kogoro
    I'm not responsible for this case.
[16:41] Megure
    Today's the last day we have left, Mori-kun.
[16:46] Megure
    At this rate, we're going
    to have to drop the charges,
[16:49] Megure
    even though we know he's the culprit!
[16:56] Megure
    Yes, this is Megure.
[16:58] Megure
    I know that.
[17:00] Megure
    Mori-kun's doing his best right now.
[17:02] Megure
    Have some faith in your senior.
[17:05] Kogoro
    Damn it. If only I hadn't
    slept so deeply last night.
[17:09] Maihama
    We're just wasting time.
[17:12] Maihama
    Take me to the burglary investigation.
[17:16] Maihama
    Personally, I wish I could
    admit to killing my uncle,
[17:21] Maihama
    but I have an alibi.
[17:30] Kogoro
    If I drink...
[17:33] Kogoro
    ...and stuff myself, I should
    start to feel sleepy.
[17:37] Conan
    This old man's confused.
[17:41] Conan
    Confused?
[17:44] Conan
    Was Hide-san really confused, too?
[17:47] Conan
    If Hide-san's perception
    wasn't wrong, what then?
[17:53] Conan
    That's it. So that's how it is.
[17:56] Conan
    Hey, mister.
[17:57] Conan
    What if everything Hide-san said is right?
[18:03] Conan
    And if you consider the culprit blindfolded
    Hide-san and knocked her out twice,
[18:09] Conan
    does anything become clear?
[18:12] Kogoro
    It's here!
[18:13] Megure
    Is it?
[18:16] Kogoro
    The bathroom!
[18:19] Megure
    I was stupid to think I could count on him.
[18:22] Conan
    Don't go, Inspector.
[18:24] Megure
    But I can't stay here forever.
[18:27] Conan
    Just hold on.
[18:31] Conan
    Uh huh. Oh, I see.
[18:34] Conan
    Yeah.
[18:35] Conan
    He seems to have had an epiphany.
[18:38] Megure
    Really?
[18:39] Conan
    Anyway, he wants you to check
[18:42] Conan
    if any fire trucks were
    dispatched to Yotsubadai that night.
[18:46] Megure
    Got it.
[18:53] Megure
    Yes. Yes. I see.
[18:56] Megure
    Got it.
[18:58] Megure
    A truck responded to a small fire at 8 PM.
[19:02] Conan
    That's it.
[19:04] Kogoro
    Huh? What are you talking about?
[19:10] Megure
    Is this it, Mori-kun?!
[19:12] Kogoro
    Yes. I feel refreshed
    after using the bathroom.
[19:14] Kogoro
    The mystery is clear to me now.
[19:16] Megure
    I'm glad I didn't leave.
[19:18] Kogoro
    Cutting to the chase,
    Inspector, Maihama did leave.
[19:23] Megure
    What? I told you, that's impossible.
[19:26] Kogoro
    Not alone.
[19:28] Kogoro
    He took Tenyama Hide-san with him.
[19:31] Megure
    What?
[19:32] Megure
    What does that mean?
[19:34] Kogoro
    After entering Hide-san's
    home at seven o'clock,
[19:38] ---
    Don't underestimate me!
[19:39] Kogoro
    he knocked her out and
    headed to Yotsubadai
[19:44] Kogoro
    with the unconscious Hide-san in the car.
[19:49] Kogoro
    Then he murdered Reigan and
    started a small fire nearby.
[19:54] Kogoro
    Then he called the fire department.
[19:56] Kogoro
    He also called in a false report
    to the Sasago-cho fire department.
[20:03] Kogoro
    As he heard the fire truck approaching,
[20:07] Kogoro
    Maihama turned on the TV in
    his car and woke Hide-san.
[20:14] Maihama
    You're finally awake.
[20:17] Maihama
    I looked for your money, but I couldn't
    find it, so I've been waiting.
[20:21] Kogoro
    After getting the money's location
    out of her, he knocked her out again.
[20:26] Kogoro
    He took Hide-san back to
    her home in Sasago-cho,
[20:30] Kogoro
    placed her in her original position,
[20:32] Kogoro
    and made it seem as though
    he was there the whole time.
[20:36] Kogoro
    In other words, Maihama blindfolded Hide-san
    not to confuse her about the time,
[20:42] Kogoro
    but to make her believe she heard the
    TV and siren in her home in Sasago-cho,
[20:48] Kogoro
    so she wouldn't realize she was actually
    in a car parked in Yotsubadai.
[20:52] Megure
    I see.
[20:53] Megure
    Tenyama Hide-san believes she was in
    her own home the whole time, but...
[20:59] Kogoro
    She was taken back and forth to
    Yotsubadai while she was unconscious
[21:04] Kogoro
    so she would confirm Maihama's alibi.
[21:08] Kogoro
    However, Maihama ended up
    leaving evidence of his scheme.
[21:13] Kogoro
    Hide-san's nose and ears.
[21:16] Kogoro
    She smelled the small fire,
SIGN    Bath is ready
[21:19] Kogoro
    and she didn't hear her
    bathtub's notification.
[21:24] Kogoro
    If you examine Maihama's car
    again, I'm sure you'll find
[21:28] Kogoro
    evidence that Hide-san was inside.
[21:35] Megure
    It's me. We've destroyed Maihama's alibi.
[21:39] Megure
    Thoroughly investigate his car.
[21:42] Megure

    identical teeth prints.
[23:23] Kogoro
    While he was committing the burglary...
[23:23] Megure
    What?
[23:26] Kogoro
    What are you doing?
[23:27] Megure
    I don't know what I was expecting.
[23:29] Megure
    This is the only time
    I'm asking him for help.
[23:35] Kogoro
    Inspector, what about Maihama's alibi?
[23:37] Kogoro
