***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.
***SIGN*** Japanese Literature Scholar Reigan Yutaka (70) Murdered!!
**[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!
**[00:59] Both**
What?!
**[01:03] Conan**
When the countdown reaches zero, use your
detective skills to produce an answer!
**[01:09] Conan**
Something's happened at the MPD!
**[01:11] Conan**
A mysterious case has been overturned!
**[01:13] Conan**
Always determining the one truth
**[01:15] Conan**
with the body of a child
and the mind of an adult,
**[01:17] Conan**
his name is Detective Conan!
***SIGN*** The Job Request From Inspector Megure
**[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**
That's right.
**[21:43] Megure**
Your senior didn't let us down.

Mori-kun, thanks for the help.
**[23:14] Megure**
I should get going.
**[23:15] Kogoro**
I solved the mystery, Inspector.
**[23:19] Kogoro**
Maihama has a twin with
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**
Maihama is...
**[23:39] Conan**
*This was supposed to have a good ending.*
