[00:02] ---
    A racing second hand,
    a shining comet!
[00:04] ---
    Conan's logic is good medicine
    for hearts tired by modern society!
[00:07] ---
    The old guy goes on a date today!
    All kinds of ripples are made!
[00:11] ---
    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!
[01:52] ---
    "Kogoro's Date Murder Case"
[02:01] ---
    Yum!
[02:03] ---
    Ordering pizza was a good idea!
[02:05] ---
    That's for sure! We can't eat
    dinners like this when Dad's around!
[02:11] ---
    He sure knows how to be careless,
    though! He forgot everything!
[02:16] ---
    He must've been really happy.
[02:18] ---
    It's been ten years since
    he's seen his friend, right?
[02:20] ---
    Yeah. He said he was
    going to drink like crazy,
[02:24] ---
    so he'll be back late tonight.
[02:27] ---
    I'm really sorry!
[02:29] ---
    Yeesh! What bad timing!
[02:32] ---
    But I guess it is
    a company emergency.
[02:35] ---
    We can get together
    another time soon. Bye!
[02:43] ---
    Train ♪2 on the Toto Loop Line
    will be arriving momentarily.
[02:48] ---
    Please stand behind the
    yellow line for your safety.
[02:53] ---
    It's still only 7:30?
[02:56] ---
    I should've gone
    somewhere for more drinks.
[03:23] ---
    Six stops until Beika Station...
[03:37] ---
    Beika
[03:38] ---
    "Beika"...
[03:42] ---
    Just a second!
[03:47] ---
    That was close.
    I almost missed my stop.
[03:54] ---
    Candy?
[03:55] ---
    Was I eating this before?
[04:10] ---
    What a poetic sight!
[04:32] ---
    Oh! It's you, Sachiko-san!
[04:35] ---
    It's me, Mori! Mori Kogoro!
[04:39] ---
    Remember? We've met in
    the Poirot shop below my office!
[04:43] ---
    Oh, the great detective, Mori Kogoro-san!
[04:44] ---
    Shimamura Sachiko Import Company Manager
[04:47] ---
    Yes! Come to think of it, isn't your
    apartment building near here?
[04:53] ---
    8:00?
[04:55] ---
    Whoops! I forgot my watch!
[04:58] ---
    Say, Mori-san! Would you
    like to go for a drive?
[05:02] ---
    I know a place with
    a beautiful night view!
[05:05] ---
    But it's no fun unless
    you go with someone else!
[05:07] ---
    Won't you come with me?
[05:09] ---
    Sounds great! Let's go!
[05:11] ---
    Then I'll pull the car out!
[05:31] ---
    Are you cramped?
[05:32] ---
    You can pull the seat back.
    There's a lever under the seat.
[05:36] ---
    Thanks...
[05:39] ---
    Huh?
[05:45] ---
    I was working late by myself earlier,
[05:49] ---
    but I came back to check on
    my roommate, who caught a cold.
[05:54] ---
    Don't you need to
    go back to work, then?
[05:57] ---
    It's alright!
[05:58] ---
    Hearing your exploits as a great
    detective would be even more useful!
[06:04] ---
    I'm so glad he had
    an emergency come up!
[06:07] ---
    And the night is still young!
[06:18] ---
    Shimamura Sachiko
    Takenaka Kazumi
[06:19] ---
    I had so much fun tonight!
[06:21] ---
    I had a lot of fun, too!
[06:23] ---
    Well, good night!
[06:26] ---
    Good night!
[06:28] ---
    Huh?
[06:29] ---
    Is something the matter?
[06:30] ---
    The door... It's unlocked...
[06:45] ---
    The deceased is Takenaka
    Kazumi-san, a 29 year-old attendant.
[06:49] ---
    Mori-san and her roommate
    Shimamura Sachiko-san found her.
[06:54] ---
    Judging from the rigor mortis
    of her lower jaw and neck,
[06:58] ---
    she died approximately two-and-a-half
    hours ago, around 9:00 pm.
[07:04] ---
    Still...
[07:08] ---
    Mori-kun! What are
    those two doing here?!
[07:12] ---
    Sorry about that!
[07:14] ---
    I called to let them know,
    and they came here on their own!
[07:18] ---
    What was Dad doing in a girl's home?!
[07:25] ---
    This is Sachiko-san's room.
[07:27] ---
    It connects to the victim's
    room via dining room and kitchen.
[07:33] ---
    And, as you can see,
    this window is slightly open.
[07:36] ---
    She says she might've
    forgotten to lock it.
[07:40] ---
    Meaning the killer entered
    through this window?
[07:44] ---
    But how would they
    get onto this veranda?
[07:47] ---
    Inspector!
[07:49] ---
    Wait! That's dangerous!
[07:50] ---
    See! You can jump onto the
    veranda from the emergency stairs!
[07:55] ---
    What do you think you're doing?!
[07:59] ---
    The intruder probably didn't
    realize Kazumi-san was sick in bed.
[08:03] ---
    So, during a search for
    things of value in the kitchen,
[08:06] ---
    the sound woke Kazumi-san,
[08:09] ---
    and the thief stabbed
    her out of surprise!
[08:12] ---
    And then the intruder
    escaped through the front door.
[08:15] ---
    In other words,
    it was a robbery-murder!
[08:17] ---
    It would seem so.
[08:19] ---
    I'm sorry to ask, but
    where were you at around 9:00?
[08:24] ---
    At that time, I was
    taking a drive with Mori-san.
[08:28] ---
    Eh?! With Mori-kun?
[08:31] ---
    Y-Yes, well...
[08:32] ---
    But, Dad! Weren't you
    meeting a friend tonight?
[08:35] ---
    I did meet him, but something
    came up so we ended early.
[08:41] ---
    So I returned to Beika Station,
    strolled around 2nd Street to sober up,
[08:47] ---
    and then ran into Sachiko-*san
    *behind Beika Middle School,
[08:50] ---
    as she was getting into her car!
[08:52] ---
    Behind the middle school?
[08:54] ---
    When was this?
[08:55] ---
    Right at 8:00.
    Then we both went for a drive.
[09:01] ---
    She knew a nice spot with
    a good view of the Toto Bay Bridge,
[09:05] ---
    and we arrived there at about 8:30.
[09:09] ---
    We chatted for about an hour and a half
[09:11] ---
    while we drank beer and juice
    she bought from a vending machine,
[09:16] ---
    and then left at around 10:10.
[09:19] ---
    We stopped by her office
    for about five minutes,
[09:22] ---
    and then arrived here at about 10:50.
[09:28] ---
    That's when we found
    the body and contacted you.
[09:32] ---
    Meaning you're her...
[09:34] ---
    Yes! I'm witness to her alibi!
[09:37] ---
    Still, what were you doing
    behind Beika Middle School?
[09:42] ---
    I run a small import
    company on Akebono Street.
[09:47] ---
    I was working late by myself tonight.
[09:50] ---
    But I was worried about Kazumi,
    since she was in bed with a cold,
[09:54] ---
    so I came back to
    check on her at around 7:50.
[09:58] ---
    Did you see Kazumi-san then?
[10:02] ---
    I didn't really talk to her;
    she was fast asleep,
[10:05] ---
    so I left her alone and
    went straight back to my car.
[10:09] ---
    Say. Why did you park your
    car behind the middle school?
[10:13] ---
    Eh?
[10:14] ---
    Why didn't you use the
    apartment building's parking lot?
[10:17] ---
    Our parking lot is a two-level,
    top-bottom type, so it's a pain to use.
[10:21] ---
    And I planned to
    return to my office right after.
[10:23] ---
    Then couldn't you park in
    front of the apartment building?
[10:27] ---
    I would have gotten in the way
    of the buses that pass by the front.
[10:36] ---
    "To Shimamura Sachiko"...
[10:39] ---
    This is addressed to you.
[10:40] ---
    Eh?
[10:41] ---
    When did this package arrive?
[10:44] ---
    I don't know...
[10:45] ---
    Was it here when you came
    to check on Kazumi-san?
[10:49] ---
    No, I don't remember.
[10:51] ---
    Understood. We'll check with
    the delivery people tomorrow.
[11:03] ---
    Something really bothers me...
[11:05] ---
    Huh? The fish bones?
[11:07] ---
    Not that. The reason Sachiko-*san
    *parked her car behind Beika Middle School.
[11:12] ---
    Say, Dad.
[11:14] ---
    What did you talk
    about for an hour and a half
[11:16] ---
    at the Bay Bridge view point?!
[11:20] ---
    And why did you go
    on a drive with her, anyway?!
[11:24] ---
    Dad! Don't tell me you two--
[11:26] ---
    W-What are you trying to say?!
    I didn't do anything improper!
[11:31] ---
    Then tell me what you talked about!
[11:33] ---
    I don't remember everything we said!
    Besides, halfway through--
[11:38] ---
    Halfway through... what?!
[11:39] ---
    No, uhh...
[11:40] ---
    Dad!
[11:44] ---
    The truth is, we only
    chatted for the first half hour.
[11:48] ---
    I fell deep asleep after that.
[11:51] ---
    You fell asleep?
[11:52] ---
    Yeah. Drunkenness started
    to set in while I had those beers.
[11:57] ---
    It was after 10:00 when she woke me up.
[12:05] ---
    That's so funny!
    You fell asleep during a date!
[12:09] ---
    Quit laughing! Sheesh!
[12:12] ---
    That's why I didn't want to say anything!
[12:14] ---
    He fell asleep halfway through?
[12:17] ---
    But he was awake
    until 9:00, chatting with her.
[12:21] ---
    The murder took place
    around 9:00. Her alibi is airtight.
[12:26] ---
    Wait a minute!
[12:27] ---
    Hey. You forgot your
    watch yesterday, right?
[12:31] ---
    How did you know the time?
[12:33] ---
    I saw the clock in the car.
[12:35] ---
    What about before then?
[12:37] ---
    There was a clock in the bar,
    and I saw a clock at Shibahama Station.
[12:42] ---
    What time was it?!
[12:43] ---
    7:30.
[12:45] ---
    7:30?
[12:48] ---
    It's fifteen minutes from Shibahama
    Station to Beika Station.
[12:51] ---
    It's ten minutes by foot from
    Beika Station to Beika Middle School.
[12:55] ---
    Which means you ran
    into Sachiko-san at around...
[12:59] ---
    I already told you! 8:00 exactly!
[13:02] ---
    I heard the clock in a nearby house ring!
[13:05] ---
    Now eat your damn
    food and go to school!
[13:08] ---
    Okay!
[13:09] ---
    He's right.
    I should just forget about it.
[13:19] ---
    Three laps around the
    schoolyard is really exhausting!
[13:22] ---
    I can't go on...
[13:24] ---
    Just a little more!
    Hang in there, Genta!
[13:27] ---
    Hey! Thinking about something
    you like makes it go quicker!
[13:30] ---
    Something I like?
[13:32] ---
    Alright! I'm gonna
    have boxed eel lunch tonight!
[13:35] ---
    Boxed eel lunch!
    Boxed eel lunch! Tonight--
[13:37] ---
    Wait, Genta! We're done now!
[13:39] ---
    Oh no. He's too busy thinking
    about boxed eel lunches.
[13:43] ---
    I bet he's going to do another lap!
[13:48] ---
    Could it be?!
[13:54] ---
    One trip around the Loop Line?!
[13:57] ---
    Could you have fallen asleep
    after you got on at Shibahama Station?
[14:03] ---
    A trip around the
    Loop Line takes an hour!
[14:05] ---
    If you had gone around
    it once while you were asleep,
[14:09] ---
    you would've reached Beika
    Station at 8:40 instead of 7:40!
[14:15] ---
    Nonsense! I only slept for fifteen minutes!
    I couldn't have looped around!
[14:20] ---
    Then let's see for ourselves!
[14:22] ---
    What?
[14:23] ---
    Let's all ride the Loop Line tonight!
[14:26] ---
    In the same train and train car
    leaving Shibahama Station at 7:30!
[14:32] ---
    I guess that'll be fine...
[14:43] ---
    Well, Dad? Remember anything?
[14:46] ---
    No, I guess I was pretty out of it.
[14:50] ---
    But she can't be the killer!
[14:52] ---
    Let's just take a
    full trip around. Okay?
[15:03] ---
    This is the furthest
    stop from Shibahama Station.
[15:16] ---
    What is it? Do you know that man?
[15:20] ---
    Candy!
[15:22] ---
    He was sleeping with
    his mouth wide open yesterday...
[15:27] ---
    ...so he tossed a piece of candy in there!
[15:35] ---
    What time was that?!
[15:36] ---
    The same as today. Around 8:00.
[15:41] ---
    Which means I arrived at
    Beika Station just before 9:00!
[15:44] ---
    And that I ran into Sachiko-san at 9:00!
[15:48] ---
    Yes! You arrived at the Toto
    Bay Bridge view point at 9:30!
[15:53] ---
    Then you chatted for
    thirty minutes, until 10:00!
[15:56] ---
    And then you woke up at 10:10!
[15:59] ---
    You were wrong about sleeping
    for an hour and ten minutes!
[16:02] ---
    You only slept for ten minutes!
[16:06] ---
    In other words, she turned
    the clock back an hour
[16:09] ---
    to use me for her alibi...
[16:13] ---
    Last night, she parked her
    car in this out-of-the-way location
[16:17] ---
    and left to kill the victim.
[16:20] ---
    She entered through the window
    she had unlocked in advance,
[16:24] ---
    made sound on purpose,
[16:26] ---
    then killed the awoken victim to
    make it look like a robbery-murder.
[16:34] ---
    After that, she returned
    here and ran into you.
[16:39] ---
    Come to think of it, she...
[16:42] ---
    Were they the bloodied clothes
    and gloves she used in the murder?!
[16:50] ---
    If so, then she disposed of
    them at the view point while you slept.
[16:56] ---
    She set the car clock an
    hour ahead before you got in.
[17:00] ---
    Then, while you were asleep,
    she put it back to normal.
[17:03] ---
    Damn it! How dare she
    toy with the great Mori Kogoro?!
[17:08] ---
    Was there anything
    else out of the ordinary?
[17:15] ---
    The children saw Mori-san?
[17:18] ---
    Your alibi no longer holds.
[17:21] ---
    You met Mori-kun behind
    Beika Middle School just after the crime.
[17:29] ---
    But isn't it possible the
    children mistook Mori-san
[17:34] ---
    for someone else who looks similar?
[17:36] ---
    That possibility does exist.
[17:38] ---
    Even if by some chance
    my alibi doesn't check out,
[17:42] ---
    that doesn't mean
    that I killed Kazumi-san.
[17:47] ---
    Yes, that's correct. But there is proof!
[17:53] ---
    I leave it in your hands today, old guy!
[17:59] ---
    Do you recognize this pen?
[18:03] ---
    Yes. It's your pen, isn't it?
[18:08] ---
    Dad!
[18:09] ---
    Are you alright, Mori-kun?!
[18:11] ---
    Oh, geez! Do I have
    to do it after all?!
[18:16] ---
    Let us go back to
    8:30 pm two nights ago.
[18:21] ---
    A deliveryman knocked on the door,
    and Kazumi-san answered it.
[18:27] ---
    However, she couldn't
    find her ink stamp.
[18:30] ---
    With no other choice,
[18:31] ---
    she decided to sign for it
    with a pen in the dining room.
[18:35] ---
    But it wouldn't write.
[18:37] ---
    Supposedly, the deliveryman
    said it might be the ink,
[18:41] ---
    so he took the
    pen and looked inside.
[18:45] ---
    Some ink was still left, and when
    she tried to write again, it worked.
[18:53] ---
    When the deliveryman left,
    Kazumi-san placed the pen by the phone
[19:00] ---
    and returned to her room to sleep.
[19:03] ---
    Twenty minutes later...
[19:10] ---
    Seeing your own
    pen lying next to her body
[19:14] ---
    right after you killed her,
    you instinctually picked it up and...
[19:27] ---
    Oh! It's you, Sachiko-san!
[19:31] ---
    Afterward, you invited me for a drive
[19:35] ---
    and moved the clothes and
    gloves under the passenger seat
[19:38] ---
    to under the back seat.
[19:41] ---
    When you did,
    the pen in your pocket fell out.
[19:49] ---
    You didn't seem to notice, but after
    I got into the passenger seat,
[19:54] ---
    I dropped a pen from my suit, too.
[19:59] ---
    I assume you can guess
    what happened next.
[20:01] ---
    What I picked up was
    your pen instead of mine!
[20:11] ---
    We found the fingerprints
    of you and Mori-kun on this pen.
[20:17] ---
    In addition, the fingerprints of
    the deliveryman were on the ink stick.
[20:23] ---
    These fingerprints mean you
    entered the apartment after 8:30!
[20:29] ---
    Isn't that right?
[20:34] ---
    Kazumi was blackmailing me!
[20:39] ---
    One year ago, I unknowingly
    imported and sold outlawed goods.
[20:47] ---
    Kazumi knew this, and demanded
    I pay her a set amount each month.
[20:53] ---
    She threatened to tell the banks
    and cut off my financing if I said no,
[20:58] ---
    so I did as she said.
[21:01] ---
    But when I considered being
    blackmailed for the rest of my life...
[21:05] ---
    You decided to kill her at once.
[21:07] ---
    Yes.
[21:09] ---
    When Mori-san called out to me,
    I thought I was already done for.
[21:14] ---
    But I realized he thought it was
    an hour earlier than it really was
[21:18] ---
    and decided to use that to my advantage.
[21:20] ---
    But what did you plan to do
    for an alibi if he hadn't shown up?
[21:26] ---
    I set a video camera
    in my office window
[21:29] ---
    and recorded the pub across the street.
[21:32] ---
    I planned to tell the police it
    was one of the customers leaving
[21:36] ---
    at the time of the crime.
[21:38] ---
    So you stopped by your office
    after your drive with Mori-kun
[21:41] ---
    to take down that video camera?
[21:45] ---
    Yes. The rest is all as Mori-san deduced.
[21:50] ---
    I'm sorry for all the trouble.
[23:29] ---
    Say. Can I ask you one thing?
[23:32] ---
    You could've killed him after he
    fell asleep at the view point, right?
[23:36] ---
    Conan-kun!
[23:38] ---
    But you didn't. How come?
[23:45] ---
    I don't hold anything
    against Mori-san, after all.
[24:05] ---
    This face... I've seen
    it somewhere long ago...
[24:12] ---
    Come to think of it, you're always
    wearing glasses, Conan-kun.
[24:15] ---
    Even when sleeping
    or taking a bath. Why?
[24:18] ---
    I-I can't relax without them on.
[24:22] ---
    With Shinichi at a magic show...
[24:25] ---
    On the next Conan Special!
[24:27] ---
    "The Great Detective is Cornered!
    Two Big Murder Cases in a Row."
