    Detective Conan Episode 944 "The
    Cost of Likes (Part One)"
SIGN    Beika Central Hospital
[00:01] Mitsuhiko
    You're lucky it was just a scratch.
[00:06] Ayumi
    We were worried, you know.
[00:08] Ayumi
    We heard you were taken to the hospital.
[00:11] Genta
    Sorry, sorry.
[00:13] Genta
    That Kagura guy protected me.
[00:17] Kagura
    It was unfortunate for the both of us.
[00:20] Genta
    But because of me, your arm...
[00:23] Kagura
    It's not your fault.
[00:25] Kagura
    Don't worry about it.
SIGN    Kagura Sumito (26)
[00:27] Kagura
    Besides, I might be able to use this.
[00:30] Conan
    Use this?
[00:31] Genta
    So, did they catch the culprit?
[00:34] Conan
    No, not yet.
[00:36] Genta
    Darn. Who would do something like that?
[00:40] Haibara
    Either way, they sure did
    cause a lot of trouble.
[00:44] Mitsuhiko
    All the patients here were
    collateral damage, right?
[00:48] Genta
    Yeah.
[00:50] Genta
    That Otsubo-san guy lives in Aobadai.
[00:54] Ayumi
    That's pretty far away, right?
SIGN    Otsubo Kikuhide (33)
[00:56] Otsubo
    I happened to come to Beika City,
    and look what happened to me.
[01:01] Otsubo
    I'm so unlucky.
[01:03] Kagura
    How truly unfortunate for you.
[01:06] Kochiyama
    Hey, Kagura.
[01:07] Haruka
    Are you okay?
[01:10] Kagura
    Kochiyama, Haruka. You guys came.
[01:13] Kochiyama
    Who called us to come visit him?
SIGN    Kochiyama Ko (26)
SIGN    Ibe Haruka (24)
[01:17] Kochiyama
    Right, Haruka-chan?
[01:18] Haruka
    Yeah. You sounded like you were about to cry.
[01:22] Kagura
    I broke my arm. Look.
[01:25] Kochiyama
    You're really unlucky.
[01:28] Kagura
    But I'm going to be compensated again.
[01:32] Kochiyama
    Again? In that case...
[01:35] Kochiyama
    Smile, Kagura. Look happy.
[01:38] Kagura
    I'll earn more likes for you.
[01:42] Haruka
    There you go again.
[01:44] Haruka
    You guys are hopeless,
    Kagura-san and Kochiyama-san.
[01:49] Conan
    What's wrong with these people?
[01:52] Conan
    He suffered an injury.
[01:59] Conan
    Right now at this moment,
    light pierces the darkness!
[02:01] Conan
    Overcome all limits with
    your cool reasoning skills!
[02:03] Conan
    Injured as part of collateral damage
    for a hilariously strange reason!
[02:06] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[02:08] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[02:10] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    The Cost of Likes
    (Part One)
[03:54] Conan
    "The Cost of Likes, Part One!"
SIGN    Yotsubishi Bank
[04:02] Conan
    It started with a phone
    call made to this bank.
[04:10] Manager
    Hello, this is the Yotsubishi
    Bank Beika branch.
[04:13] Phone
    Several bombs have been
    placed around your bank.
[04:17] Phone
    They'll all explode in one minute.
[04:20] Manager
    What?!
[04:21] Manager
    Evacuate the building!
[04:23] Conan
    Shocked by the threat, the bank told all
    customers and employees to evacuate.
[04:29] Conan
    However, the panicked customers caused
    collateral damage to the people
[04:34] Conan
    who happened to be passing
    by in front of the bank.
[04:38] Conan
    Pushed to the ground by the
    people rushing out of the bank,
[04:41] Conan
    Genta and several others were
    injured and taken to the hospital.
[04:48] Conan
    The phone used to place the call was
    determined to be a public phone near the bank.
[04:55] Conan
    Because there was no explosion and
    not a single explosive was found,
[05:00] Conan
    it was thought to be a prank.
[05:04] Conan
    Though the bank promised to
    cover their medical expenses
[05:07] Conan
    and compensate the victims,
[05:12] Conan
    it was an unfortunate incident for
    everyone involved nonetheless.
[05:16] Conan
    However...
[05:18] Conan
    You three seem unusually happy.
[05:22] Haruka
    What?
[05:23] Haruka
    But I mean... Right?
[05:25] Kochiyama
    Yeah.
[05:27] Kochiyama
    Kagura suffered collateral
    damage about half a month ago.
[05:31] All
    What?
[05:32] Kagura
    I was out hiking alone.
[05:55] Kagura
    I suffered collateral damage
    from an unexploded bomb.
[05:58] All
    Really?
[06:00] Haibara
    I remember that.
[06:02] Conan
    So you were the victim who
    suffered collateral damage.
[06:05] Kochiyama
    Unlucky, right?
[06:08] Kochiyama
    But because of all the money he received
    from the construction company,
[06:13] Kochiyama
    he was able to pay off all his debts at once.
[06:16] Kochiyama
    The nerve of this guy.
[06:18] All
    Really?
[06:20] Kagura
    Kochiyama's pretty cheeky, too.
[06:23] Kagura
    The next day, he took me back
    to the construction site.
[06:29] Kagura
    Is here good?
[06:30] Kochiyama
    Nah, go farther back.
[06:33] Kagura
    Okay.
[06:35] Kochiyama
    Smile more. Look happy!
[06:42] Kagura
    He used me to get likes.
[06:47] Kochiyama
    This is it.
SIGN    "Unexploded Bomb Explodes!!"
[06:50] Mitsuhiko
    "My friend was injured when he suffered
    collateral damage from an unexploded bomb."
[06:54] Mitsuhiko
    "He's an unlucky man."
[06:56] Mitsuhiko
    "But look at him smiling after
    he received compensation."
[06:59] Mitsuhiko
    "Shameless, right?"
[07:01] Mitsuhiko
    Indeed.
[07:02] Genta
    They say a wise man profits by his mistakes.
[07:06] Conan
    So this Tanuki Ponkichi name...
SIGN    Tanuki Ponkichi
[07:10] Kochiyama
    That's me.
[07:15] Otsubo
    Sorry.
[07:17] Haruka
    So since something similar happened today,
[07:20] Haruka
    Kagura-san will be compensated,
[07:23] Haruka
    and Kochiyama-san plans to
    get more likes out of him.
[07:29] Mitsuihko
    That's why you seem happy.
[07:34] Haibara
    What a despicable pair.
[07:43] Kochiyama
    It's a good thing you were injured
    when you don't have any performances.
[07:49] Conan
    Performances?
[07:51] Genta
    He's an actor in some acting company.
[07:55] Haruka
    As a token of friendship...
SIGN    Chonenten
[07:58] Haruka
    We're the Chonenten Acting Company.
[08:02] Mitsuhiko
    Chonenten Acting Company?
[08:04] Mitsuhiko
    Come to think of it, isn't there a café
    with this name behind the station?
[08:09] Haruka
    The chairman of our company runs that place.
[08:13] Mitsuhiko
    I see.
[08:16] Ayumi
    There are photos of Kagura-san and you.
[08:19] Conan
    Huh? Kochiyama-san isn't on there.
[08:23] Kagura
    Kochiyama is unrelated to the
    company. He's an old friend.
[08:28] Haruka
    But whenever we get together,
    we have a fun time.
[08:33] Ayumi
    They're three best friends.
[08:36] Haibara
    Sounds like it.
[08:38] Kochiyama
    Anyway, whoever called the bank...
[08:43] Kochiyama
    I'm sure they only meant to prank them,
[08:45] Kochiyama
    but they injured people totally
    unconnected to the bank.
[08:48] Kochiyama
    They must be feeling really bad
    about the stupid thing they did.
[08:54] Haruka
    They'd better.
[08:56] Haruka
    Right?
[08:57] Kagura
    Yeah.
[08:59] Kochiyama
    Let's have a drink tonight
    to cleanse you of this evil.
[09:03] Kochiyama
    You'll be at your apartment, right?
[09:05] Kagura
    Yeah.
[09:06] Kagura
    I can't work like this.
SIGN    Nurse's Station
[09:16] Conan
    Excuse me. Could you give me the address
    of the Otsubo-san staying in that room?
[09:21] Nurse
    What?
[09:22] Conan
    Kojima Genta who's also in that
    room is very grateful to him,
[09:26] Conan
    and wanted to surprise him
    with a thank you letter.
[09:30] Nurse
    One moment.
[09:32] Nurse
    Let's see...
[09:34] Nurse
    Here it is.
[09:36] Nurse
    This is a one-time thing.
[09:38] Nurse
    Otsubo Kikuhide-san...
[09:41] Sign
    "How can this be a coincidence?!"
[09:44] Kagura
    You already uploaded the photo.
[09:46] Kochiyama
    Good deeds should be done quickly.
[09:47] Kagura
    Good?
[09:50] Conan
    Huh? You're leaving already?
[09:53] Kagura
    Yeah. Everyone's been cleared to leave.
[09:56] Kagura
    Genta-kun should be coming soon, too.
[09:59] Conan
    Do you guys know the Otsubo-san
    who was staying in your room?
[10:05] Kagura
    Huh? No.
[10:07] Kochiyama
    We don't know him. Why?
[10:09] Conan
    No reason. I just thought you might.
[10:12] Conan
    Bye!
[10:13] Kochiyama
    Uh, yeah.
[10:14] Haruka
    Bye.
[10:16] Mitsuhiko
    Where have you been, Conan-kun?
[10:19] Conan
    Sorry, sorry. I had to go to the bathroom.
[10:22] Mitsuhiko
    Let's get started.
[10:23] Conan
    What? Started on what?
[10:26] Mitsuhiko
    On finding the culprit, of course.
[10:29] Ayumi
    Genta-kun was injured.
    We can't just ignore it.
[10:32] Genta
    Not just me.
[10:34] Genta
    That Kagura guy and all the
    others suffered a horrible fate.
[10:38] Genta
    We've gotta catch the culprit.
[10:42] Genta
    Let's start by asking the police
    if they've found anything.
[10:45] All
    Yeah!
[10:48] Haibara
    Look at them. They're so excited.
[10:50] Haibara
    What will you do?
[10:57] Genta
    Looks like they don't have any clues yet.
[11:00] Mitsuhiko
    They're just starting to think
    about how to determine the culprit.
[11:05] Mitsuhiko
    Hey, isn't that...
SIGN    "How can this be a coincidence?!"
[11:07] Ayumi
    Tanuki Ponkichi. That's
    Kochiyama-san's new post.
[11:11] Haibara
    "The man I introduced as my unlucky
    but shameless friend half a month ago
[11:17] Haibara
    suffered more collateral damage!"
[11:19] Haibara
    "Unbelievable, right?"
[11:21] Mitsuhiko
    Two incidents in half a month?
[11:26] Mitsuhiko
    Kagura-san really is unlucky.
[11:29] Both
    Yeah.
[11:31] Conan
    Unbelievable, huh? It really is.
[11:35] All
    What?
[11:36] Haibara
    Could it be?
[11:38] Conan
    I'm not trying to sound like Kochiyama-san,
    but this can't be a coincidence.
[11:42] Genta
    What?
[11:43] Mitsuhiko
    Conan-kun, could it be?
[11:45] Conan
    The collateral damage from the bomb a
    half-month ago probably was a coincidence.
[11:50] Conan
    But it's possible he got a taste
    for the money he received then,
[11:54] Conan
    and tried to get some more.
[11:57] Kagura
    Several bombs have been
    placed around your bank.
[12:02] Conan
    He called the bank and caused a panic,
[12:06] Conan
    making it look like he
    suffered collateral damage.
[12:11] Conan
    It's not impossible.
[12:14] Conan
    He doesn't have any performances
    right now, right?
[12:16] Genta
    He was waiting for a time he
    could afford to be injured?
[12:21] Ayumi
    So the culprit is Kagura-san?
[12:23] Ayumi
    Then Kochiyama-san and Haruka-oneesan...
[12:28] Genta
    He fooled us, too.
[12:31] Haibara
    That is what it means.
[12:34] Ayumi
    But they're three best friends.
[12:36] Mitsuhiko
    Let's investigate Kagura-san.
[12:39] Genta
    Let's ask around.
[12:41] Haibara
    We could also follow him.
    We might discover something.
[12:44] Conan
    Do it. I'm going to look into Otsubo-san.
[12:48] Mitsuhiko
    Is he involved, too?
[12:50] Conan
    No, but there's something
    about him that's bothering me.
[12:55] Mitsuhiko
    Got it. Let's split up.
[12:58] All
    Yeah!
SIGN    Izakaya Sasai
[13:11] Kagura
    Sorry, boss.
[13:13] Kagura
    As you can see, I won't be
    able to work for a while.
[13:16] Kagura
    Sorry.
[13:17] Manager
    It's fine. Anyway, you really are unlucky.
[13:22] Kagura
    I know. I have no idea why I'm so unlucky.
[13:28] Kagura
    Anyway, I'll call you later.
[13:30] Manager
    Sure. Take care.
[13:43] Kagura
    Long time, no see.
[13:46] Kagura
    Look. Something crazy happened to me again.
[13:49] Friend
    Oh, I saw the news. That must've been rough.
[13:49] Ayumi
    It's like he's telling everyone.
[13:52] Haibara
    "I'm simply a victim
    of collateral damage."
[13:57] Haibara
    That could be his strategy to convince
    everyone that's what happened.
SIGN    Chonenten
[14:03] Dewa
    What? Our Kagura?
[14:05] Mitsuhiko
    Yes.
[14:06] Mitsuhiko
    As the company chairman, what kind
    of person do you think he is?
SIGN    Dewa Chiichiro (30)
[14:10] Dewa
    What kind of person is he?
[14:13] Dewa
    He's a good-natured guy, right?
[14:15] Actor
    Yeah.
[14:16] Actor
    Right.
[14:17] Genta
    Are these guys in the company, too?
[14:20] Dewa
    This is where we hang out.
[14:23] Mitsuhiko
    Half a month ago, Kagura-san suffered
    collateral damage from an unexploded bomb.
[14:28] Mitsuhiko
    Do you know anything about that?
[14:30] Dewa
    He didn't learn his lesson.
[14:33] Dewa
    Afterwards he was saying, "Maybe I'll
    suffer some more tasty collateral damage."
[14:38] Actor
    He did say that.
[14:40] Actor
    Like he was hoping he'd
    receive more money, right?
[14:44] Actor
    Even though that never happens.
[14:47] Actor
    I know.
[14:48] Genta
    This sounds like what Conan said.
[14:51] Mitsuhiko
    Yes.
[14:52] Mitsuhiko
    He did it for the money.
SIGN    Otsubo
[14:55] Yasukawa
    Oh, Otsubo-kun? We're pretty close.
[15:00] Yasukawa
    We're neighbors and have a lot of free time.
SIGN    I am a poet
[15:03] Yasukawa
    His life's purpose is finding
    unusual and interesting things
[15:08] Yasukawa
    to upload to social media for likes.
[15:12] Yasukawa
    But he apparently has a
    tough rival on social media.
SIGN    Yasukawa Shiro (35)
[15:16] Conan
    A rival?
SIGN    "Unexploded Bomb Explodes!!"
[15:19] Otsubo
    He got a bunch of likes again.
[15:22] Otsubo
    Who is this Tanuki Ponkichi who
    keeps making interesting posts?
[15:27] Yasukawa
    That's what he told me.
[15:29] Conan
    Really?
[15:31] Conan
    That's why he reacted like that upon learning
    Kochiyama-san is Tanuki Ponkichi, his rival.
[15:38] Yasukawa
    But Otsubo-kun said he wouldn't be beat.
[15:42] Yasukawa
    I think it was two days ago...
[15:44] Otsubo
    I thought of a good idea.
[15:47] Otsubo
    I'm going to find this
    unlucky man and follow him.
[15:50] Otsubo
    He's sure to suffer some misfortune again,
[15:54] Otsubo
    so I'll post about it first.
[16:00] Yasukawa
    Stupid, right?
[16:04] Conan
    Otsubo-san came to Beika City and suffered
    collateral damage not by coincidence,
[16:08] Conan
    but because he was following Kagura-san.
[16:13] Conan
    Which means... Could it be?
[16:18] Mitsuhiko
    Apparently Kagura-san said he hoped to suffer
[16:23] Mitsuhiko
    some more "tasty" collateral damage.
[16:25] Haibara
    Since he couldn't just wait
    around for it to happen,
[16:29] Haibara
    he made the bomb threat and caused a panic.
[16:33] Ayumi
    Is Kagura-san really such a bad person?
[16:38] Conan
    What?
[16:39] Haibara
    While following him,
[16:42] Haibara
    he seemed like a very cheerful
    and sociable person.
[16:44] Haibara
    Even though he'd just been injured,
    he never stopped smiling.
[16:48] Ayumi
    The people he was talking
    to were smiling, too.
[16:52] Mitsuhiko
    That's because he's going to be compensated.
[16:55] Ayumi
    But he didn't seem like a bad person
    who would trick his friends.
[17:00] Haibara
    But he's an actor.
[17:02] Haibara
    It's possible it was all an act.
[17:07] Ayumi
    You think so?
[17:08] Mitsuhiko
    He told his actor friends that he
    hoped to suffer more collateral damage
[17:15] Mitsuhiko
    so he'd receive more money.
[17:16] Mitsuhiko
    That could be his true nature.
[17:19] Genta
    Then it's decided. The culprit is Kagura-san.
[17:22] Conan
    But the implausibility of the coincidence
    isn't a strong enough basis for anything.
[17:28] Mitsuhiko
    We need evidence.
[17:30] Conan
    That's where Otsubo Kikuhide-san comes in.
[17:34] Conan
    If he was following Kagura-san,
[17:37] Conan
    then it's possible he saw
    Kagura-san make the call.
[17:43] Conan
    I was waiting to confirm that,
    but Otsubo-san hasn't come home.
[17:49] Mitsuhiko
    We'll do all of it tomorrow.
[17:52] Conan
    Yeah.
[17:53] Conan
    We'll check in with Otsubo-san and do
    whatever it takes to find conclusive evidence.
[17:58] All
    Yeah!
[18:06] Otsubo
    I see.
[18:08] Otsubo
    So that's what happened.
[18:12] Otsubo
    I'll expose everything!
[18:22] Genta
    All right! Let's resume the investigation!
[18:26] Conan
    I'm going to check with Otsubo-san.
[18:29] Mitsuhiko
    Then I'll—
[18:32] Mitsuhiko
    Did something happen?
[18:42] Conan
    Otsubo-san?
[18:44] Ayumi
    No way!
[18:45] Genta
    Why him?
[18:47] Takagi
    Kids, don't enter the crime scene.
[18:49] Chiba
    Do you know him?
[18:51] Conan
    Yeah. Was he murdered?
[18:53] Takagi
    Y-Yeah.
[18:55] Takagi
    We don't know the details yet, but
    he was probably struck with a rock.
[19:00] Takagi
    We think it happened around eight last night.
[19:04] Takagi
    Wait a minute...
[19:05] Megure
    You kids knew the victim?
[19:08] Genta
    You know the bomb threat made to
    that bank yesterday afternoon?
[19:14] Megure
    Yes, though it turned out to be nonsense.
[19:17] Haibara
    But because it was a Friday at the end
    of the month, it caused a huge panic.
[19:22] Ayumi
    Genta-kun got caught up in it.
[19:24] Mitsuhiko
    Otsubo-san was another one of the victims.
[19:29] All
    What?
[19:30] Megure
    And the night of the incident,
[19:32] Megure
    victim Otsubo-san was murdered.
[19:37] Chiba
    Inspector.
[19:39] Megure
    We'll have to investigate to see
[19:41] Megure
    if yesterday's bomb scare
    and this case are related.
[19:46] Both
    Yes, sir!
[19:52] Ayumi
    Like Inspector Megure said, I wonder if
    this is related to yesterday's incident.
[19:57] Genta
    Let's do whatever it takes to
    find our culprit ourselves, too.
[20:02] Ayumi
    Yeah.
[20:02] Mitsuhiko
    Let's do it.
[20:03] Haibara
    It's possible Edogawa-kun
    is right and Otsubo-san
[20:09] Haibara
    learned a grave secret about yesterday's
    incident and was killed for it.
[20:16] Mitsuhiko
    What?
[20:16] Mitsuhiko
    Wouldn't that mean Otsubo-san
    was killed by Kagura-san?
[20:21] Genta
    Huh?
[20:22] Ayumi
    What?
[20:26] Mitsuhiko
    Otsubo-san must've seen him yesterday
[20:30] Mitsuhiko
    while following Kagura-san
    for social media fodder.
[20:33] Mitsuhiko
    He saw Kagura-san calling the bank.
[20:38] Mitsuhiko
    At the time, he probably didn't
    know he was making a bomb threat.
[20:42] Mitsuhiko
    After leaving the hospital,
[20:44] Mitsuhiko
    Otsubo-san followed unlucky man
    Kagura-san for social media fodder.
[20:50] Mitsuhiko
    Something made him realize Kagura-san
    caused the bomb scare and questioned him.
[20:58] Otsubo
    So that's what happened.
[21:02] Otsubo
    I'll expose everything!
[21:08] Mitsuhiko
    Knowing that would only end poorly for him,
[21:11] Mitsuhiko
    Kagura-san acted to silence him!
[21:17] Conan
    It's not impossible. It makes sense.
[21:21] All
    Right?
[21:23] Conan
    It makes sense, but...
[21:27] Conan
    There's something...
[21:29] Mitsuhiko
    Let's tell Inspector Megure our reasoning.
[21:32] Conan
    Even if he killed him to silence him,
[21:35] Conan
    that reasoning assumes Kagura-san
    made the bomb threat.
[21:40] Mitsuhiko
    Oh, right.
[21:41] Mitsuhiko
    Since we don't have any proof of that,
[21:44] Mitsuhiko
    the reasoning for Otsubo-san's
    murder is just speculation.
[21:48] Genta
    You guys keep talking about evidence,
[21:51] Genta
    but even without it, I'll put the
    screws on him until he confesses!
[21:55] Ayumi
    Genta-kun!
[21:56] Mitsuhiko
    Hey!
[21:58] Mitsuhiko
    What should we do, Conan-kun?
[21:59] Conan
    That might work.
[22:01] Mitsuhiko
    What?
[22:02] Conan
    We won't give him a hard time,
[22:04] Conan
    but we might be able to pick something
    up by going directly to Kagura-san.
[22:09] Haibara
    He might reveal something about himself.
[22:13] Conan
    Yeah. Let's go talk to Kagura-san.

[23:45] Kagura
    Otsubo-san did?
[23:48] Haibara
    So you heard, apparently...
[23:50] Haibara
    It's all starting to sound suspicious.
[23:53] All
    Conan-kun?!
[23:55] Haru
    A love triangle?
[24:01] Kochiyama
    I don't understand!
[24:02] Kochiyama
    I thought Kagura was just
    drinking a beer, but then—
