[00:00] Conan
    [OP]
[00:00] Conan
    [Eyecatch]
[00:00] Conan
    Sergeant Momosaki and
    Lieutenant Yagi were murdered
[00:05] Conan
    one after another in the
    policewoman serial murder case.
[00:09] Conan
    It was determined that the dying messages
    they left behind pointed to no parking signs.
[00:16] Conan
    And that signified...
[00:19] Chiba
    I had no idea Japanese road signs
    were based off English ones.
[00:26] Conan
    England...
[00:28] Conan
    Japanese road signs are
    based off English ones...
[00:34] Conan
    That's it! So that's how it is!
[00:38] Conan
    Listen, Detective Chiba...
[00:40] Chiba
    Oh, sorry. Someone's calling.
[00:54] Chiba
    Hello? Hello?
[01:00] Voice
    Hey, what are you doing?!
[01:08] Culprit
    Damn! You had two phones?
[01:26] Naeko
    Ch-Chiba-kun...
[01:35] Conan
    The rhythm on my lips is footloose!
[01:37] Conan
    The rhythm of my detective
    skills is perfect!
[01:39] Conan
    The culprit's identity is becoming clear!
[01:40] Conan
    Hurry to Patrolwoman Miike, Detective Chiba!
[01:43] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[01:44] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[01:46] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    Target: MPD Transportation Department
    (Part Four)
[03:27] Conan
    "Target: MPD Transportation
    Department, Part Four!"
SIGN    Metropolitan Police Department Haido City Station
[03:34] Takagi
    Hello, Sato-san? It was a week ago after all.
[03:38] Takagi
    One week ago, there was a
    woman who committed suicide
[03:42] Takagi
    by jumping from the roof of an office
    building on Second Street in Haido City.
[03:44] Takagi
    Her name was Midorikawa Aiko.
[03:46] Takagi
    Since she worked at the
    building she jumped from,
[03:48] Takagi
    her colleagues were able to confirm
    her identity right then and there.
[03:52] Takagi
    She resided in room 702
    of the apartment building.
[03:55] Takagi
    Left at the scene were her shoes and phone.
[03:58] Takagi
    Later, a suicide note was
    discovered in her desk as well.
[04:02] Takagi
    And, in fact...
[04:04] Chiba
    You know who the culprit is?
[04:06] Chiba
    You know who killed Sergeant
    Momosaki and Lieutenant Yagi?
[04:10] Conan
    Yeah.
[04:11] Conan
    The culprit is one of the traffic violators
[04:14] Conan
    they arrested one week earlier, right?
[04:18] Chiba
    Yeah.
[04:19] Chiba
    They were extremely angry when they
    were brought into the police station,
[04:23] Chiba
    so that's the lead we're following.
[04:25] Conan
    They were Aono, who forgot his license
    and was using his phone while driving,
SIGN    Aono Kengo
[04:33] Conan
    Akamine, who was riding a motorcycle
    against traffic without a helmet,
SIGN    Akamine Manji
[04:37] Conan
    and Shiroyama, whose inspection was expired
    and forgot to wear his seat belt, right?
SIGN    Shiroyama Yuzo
[04:43] Conan
    And most likely, both the first victim
    Sergeant Momosaki was pointing at
[04:48] Conan
    and the second victim Lieutenant
    Yagi was facing a no parking sign.
[04:54] Conan
    Do you know why signs prohibiting something
    are a circle with a diagonal line?
[04:59] Chiba
    N-No, I don't.
[05:02] Conan
    Because the shape is combination
    of the letters N and O.
[05:06] Conan
    In other words, it means "no" in English.
[05:09] Conan
    No parking signs are a "no"
    layered on top of a blue sign.
[05:13] Conan
    Which means blue (ao) plus "no" is ao-no.
[05:16] Conan
    The culprit is Aono-san.
[05:18] Chiba
    Blue plus no makes Aono?
[05:21] Chiba
    Do you really think they made a
    lame pun with their dying messages?
[05:25] Conan
    That's what I thought at first,
[05:27] Conan
    but if that's the only thing you saw in
    the vicinity, wouldn't you do the same?
[05:32] Conan
    Dying messages can't be
    noticed by the culprit,
[05:35] Conan
    but it's also not good if
    no one understands them.
[05:38] Conan
    Most people don't know the
    history of road signs,
[05:42] Conan
    but it's likely an officer of the
    Transportation Department would notice.
[05:46] Conan
    It's the perfect message.
[05:49] Conan
    Then there's 7155.
[05:51] Chiba
    Huh?
[05:51] Conan
    The number Lieutenant Yagi left on her
    phone that doesn't connect to anyone.
[05:56] Conan
    It probably refers to road traffic
    law article 71, section 5-5.
[06:02] Conan
    While operating a vehicle, drivers must
    not hold their phone in their hand
[06:06] Conan
    or look at its screen.
[06:09] Conan
    In other words, I think we can
    assume it refers to Aono-san,
[06:14] Conan
    who was using his phone while driving.
[06:18] Kuroda
    We just received word from Sergeant Chiba.
[06:22] Kuroda
    We've received information
    identifying Aono Kengo
[06:25] Kuroda
    as the suspect in the policewoman
    serial murder case.
[06:29] Kuroda
    I'm ordering the emergency
    deployment of police forces
[06:32] Kuroda
    in a wide area to search for Aono Kengo.
[06:35] Kuroda
    He's a dangerous criminal who
    has murdered two of our own.
[06:39] Kuroda
    For the dignity of the police,
    we must arrest him!
[06:42] All
    Yes, sir!
[06:47] Chiba
    Yes, sir.
[06:48] Chiba
    Oh, but...
[06:50] Chiba
    It was Conan-kun who figured all of this out.
[06:56] Kuroda
    The Sleeping Kogoro's adviser...
[07:00] Kuroda
    I suppose I'm not surprised.
[07:04] Police A
    Aono hasn't returned to his home.
[07:06] Police A
    According to his neighbors, they
    haven't seen him for several days.
[07:11] Police B
    According to Aono's coworkers,
[07:14] Police B
    this afternoon they told a woman who
    came to ask about his whereabouts
[07:17] Police B
    that he was probably at his girlfriend's
    place if he wasn't at home.
[07:21] Police B
    Yes, it was definitely Lieutenant Yagi.
[07:24] Police B
    I confirmed her identity using a photo.
[07:38] Takagi
    Sato-san, look!
[07:47] Aono
    It's so noisy.
[07:48] Aono
    There are a lot of patrol
    cars driving around.
[07:52] Naeko
    Of course there are.
[07:54] Naeko
    They're looking for the suspect
    who murdered two police officers.
[08:00] Naeko
    So I recommend you release me
    immediately and turn yourself in!
[08:07] Aono
    I told you...
[08:11] Aono
    If you want me to release
    you, just tell me already.
[08:16] Aono
    She's in here, isn't she?
[08:20] Aono
    That damn woman named Yumi.
[08:23] Naeko
    Why do you want to know?
[08:26] Aono
    I'm going to tell her I found your
    phone and have her come here to get it.
[08:30] Aono
    Then I'll push her out the
    window and break her head open,
[08:35] Aono
    just like my girlfriend Aiko.
[08:40] Aono
    Though she might trigger a trap
    first and end up skewered instead.
[08:47] Naeko
    In that case...
[08:50] Naeko
    I wouldn't tell you even if I knew!
[08:54] Chiba
    What?
[08:55] Chiba
    Aono Kengo's girlfriend killed herself by
    jumping off the building she worked at?
[09:01] Chiba
    One week ago?
[09:03] Sato
    Yes.
[09:04] Sato
    Apparently she couldn't take
    the power harassment
[09:07] Sato
    she was suffering at the hands of her bosses.
[09:09] Sato
    Aono received a text from his
    girlfriend that said "goodbye."
[09:14] Sato
    He rushed out of work, got into
    his car without his license,
[09:18] Sato
    and was caught by Sergeant Momosaki and
    Lieutenant Yagi while he was on his way to her.
[09:25] Shiratori
    So he resented them for stopping him.
[09:29] Takagi
    He believes he could've prevented his
    girlfriend's suicide if that hadn't happened.
[09:33] Sato
    But according to the local jurisdiction,
[09:35] Sato
    she called Aono immediately
    after texting him, right?
[09:38] Takagi
    Yes, but Aono didn't answer,
[09:42] Takagi
    so she left a voicemail instead.
[09:45] Takagi
    She was using a recording app on her phone,
[09:48] Takagi
    so they were able to confirm the
    message's contents at the scene.
[09:52] Sato
    Her phone, huh?
[09:54] Sato
    Speaking of phones, they received a
    phone call while questioning Aono,
[09:58] Sato
    and he was extremely upset.
[10:01] Takagi
    Yes.
[10:01] Takagi
    The officers who came to help
    question them heard what he said.
[10:05] Aono
    You're seriously talking about karaoke?!
[10:07] Aono
    Someone might die, and you're
    talking about karaoke?!
[10:11] Sato
    The two of them had a mutual friend named
    Yumiko who they went to karaoke with.
[10:15] Sato
    But both of them called her Yumi.
[10:19] Takagi
    Yumi?
[10:20] Takagi
    Did Aono hear that name then
    and plan to kill Yumi-san next?
[10:24] Shiratori
    If you're looking for someone named
    Yumi among their acquaintances,
[10:28] Shiratori
    it's certainly possible.
[10:30] Shiratori
    Where is Yumi-san now?
[10:32] Sato
    I've been calling her, but she won't answer.
[10:38] Takagi
    A text?
[10:40] Chiba
    Conan-kun just sent a message
    to Takagi-san's phone.
[10:45] Sato
    Conan-kun did?
[10:47] Chiba
    Due to certain circumstances,
    I'm driving him home right now.
[10:50] Chiba
    Is the number I just sent
    him Yumi-san's number?
[10:54] Sato
    What? Yumi called you?
[10:56] Chiba
    I don't know if it was Yumi-san,
[10:59] Chiba
    but I heard four sets of a fingernail
    tapping a phone seven times.
[11:03] Chiba
    After that, I heard a male voice say, "Hey,
    what are you doing?!" before they hung up.
[11:07] Chiba
    I thought it might be...
[11:09] Sato
    What? Wait.
[11:11] Sato
    This is Miike's number.
[11:13] Chiba
    What? Miike, Yumi-san's subordinate?
[11:16] Sato
    Come to think of it, we can't
    get in touch with Miike either.
[11:19] Conan
    It's possible the culprit figured
    out she's a police officer
[11:24] Conan
    and kidnapped her so he can lure
    Yumi-san to him and murder her!
[11:26] Chiba
    What?
[11:27] Conan
    If he plans to call her to him,
    then he can't be that far.
[11:30] Conan
    What places are nearby that the
    culprit would be familiar with?
[11:35] Conan
    Do you know what Aono does for work?
[11:38] Sato
    Y-Yes...
[11:40] Sato
    I think he was a remodeler.
[11:46] Conan
    An English school, an out-of-business arcade,
[11:49] Conan
    a planetarium, a sports
    facility, a restaurant...
[11:53] Conan
    It's no use.
[11:54] Conan
    There are more places being
    remodeled than I expected.
[11:58] Conan
    The only clue we have is the four sets
    of seven taps that Detective Chiba heard.
[12:03] Conan
    Damn it! Where are they?!
[12:31] Conan
    A remodeler...
[12:33] Conan
    Four sets of seven taps...
[12:35] Conan
    What does it mean?
[12:37] Sato
    By the way, Chiba-kun, how
    did the sound you heard go?
[12:42] Chiba
    I believe it was...
[12:44] Chiba
    Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap,
[12:49] Chiba
    tap tap tap tap tap tap tap.
[12:55] Chiba
    Huh? That sounds familiar.
[12:57] Conan
    It's "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!"
[12:59] Chiba
    What?
[13:00] Conan
    Twinkle twinkle little star,
    how I wonder what you are.
[13:02] Conan
    Up above the world so high,
    like a diamond in the sky.
[13:05] Conan
    The lyrics are four phrases
    of seven syllables each.
[13:08] Conan
    She could only communicate using
    sounds because her mouth is covered!
[13:12] Conan
    The culprit works as a remodeler, and
    then there's "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!"
[13:16] Conan
    In other words, she's being held in the
    planetarium that's being remodeled!
[13:25] Chiba
    The planetarium is near the park we were
    just at that was the scene of the first murder.
[13:33] Chiba
    Hurry!
[13:41] Aono
    Damn it. You're determined
    not to talk, aren't you?
[13:49] Aono
    Forget it, then.
[13:52] Aono
    Instead, I'll make it so
    you can never speak again!
[14:00] Naeko
    Chiba-kun!
[14:03] Conan
    Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
[14:09] Conan
    how I wonder what you are.
[14:16] Conan
    Up above the world so high,
[14:22] Conan
    like a diamond in the sky.
[14:29] Conan
    Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
[14:36] Conan
    how I wonder what you are.
[14:43] Aono
    A-A kid? What is this? Why are you here?
[14:47] Chiba
    I brought him here so he could distract you.
[14:55] Chiba
    Aono Kengo, you're under arrest for the
    murders of two female police officers.
[15:02] Naeko
    Chiba-kun!
[15:06] Chiba
    22:54, suspect arrested.
[15:12] Aono
    Damn it!
[15:14] Aono
    Damn, damn!
[15:17] Chiba
    So you do have your phone with you.
[15:20] Chiba
    The police have been
    calling you over and over.
[15:24] Aono
    It's not on.
[15:27] Aono
    This phone is full of memories of Aiko.
[15:30] Aono
    I never let it out of my sight.
[15:33] Aono
    But since that day, that moment,
    I haven't looked at the screen!
[15:37] Aono
    I can't look at it anymore!
[15:39] Aono
    Since that moment Aiko died,
[15:41] Aono
    no matter how often I look at it,
    Aiko never says anything to me!
[15:45] Chiba
    I heard about your girlfriend.
[15:48] Chiba
    What happened was tragic.
[15:50] Aono
    It's your fault!
[15:52] Aono
    Because you police wouldn't
    let me go, Aiko is...
[15:56] Chiba
    Weren't you driving without a
    license while using your phone?
[16:01] Chiba
    It's only natural that you were arrested.
[16:03] Chiba
    Those are the rules.
[16:05] Aono
    There it is. The rules.
[16:07] Aono
    They could've quickly written me a ticket!
[16:09] Aono
    But they wasted my time by talking
    about karaoke on the phone
[16:13] Aono
    and slowed me down!
[16:16] Aono
    I wanted to get to my girlfriend
    to convince her not to do it!
[16:19] Aono
    The police killed Aiko!
[16:23] Chiba
    The police didn't kill your girlfriend.
[16:27] Chiba
    It was a coincidence that
    they received a call.
[16:29] Chiba
    Even if it hadn't happened,
    they wouldn't have let you go.
[16:33] Chiba
    It was clear from your behavior
    that you were out of your mind.
[16:37] Chiba
    They thought you needed time to calm down.
[16:41] Chiba
    No one can remain calm
    under all circumstances,
[16:44] Chiba
    especially not if their
    loved ones are involved.
[16:48] Chiba
    Not even me.
[16:49] Chiba
    It's the reason the policewomen
    you killed did their jobs.
[16:57] Chiba
    So a driver like you
[16:59] Chiba
    who's lost their cool won't take the
    life of someone else's loved on.
[17:04] Aono
    You're lecturing me?
[17:06] Aono
    Talk all you want, but Aiko still
    died because you guys stopped me!
[17:10] Aono
    If that hadn't happened,
    I could've saved Aiko!
[17:13] Aono
    Besides, I was calm!
[17:15] Aono
    They had no reason to keep me there!
[17:17] Chiba
    No.
[17:18] Chiba
    You weren't behaving normally.
[17:20] Aono
    You weren't there. How would you know?
[17:22] Chiba
    I do know.
[17:24] Chiba
    Your girlfriend left a
    voicemail on your phone.
[17:28] Aono
    A voicemail?
[17:29] Chiba
    I knew it.
[17:31] Chiba
    You haven't heard your girlfriend's message.
[17:33] Chiba
    No, you don't even seem to
    know that she called you.
[17:38] Chiba
    She called you a minute after
    she sent that last text.
[17:42] Chiba
    Because you were hurrying to your car,
[17:45] Chiba
    it's possible you didn't
    notice she was calling.
[17:47] Chiba
    But you were looking at your
    phone while driving after that.
[17:51] Chiba
    You were so preoccupied that
    the police stopped you.
[17:55] Chiba
    You should've seen this notification
    on your screen then.
SIGN    Aiko
SIGN    Voice Message Missed Call
[18:03] Chiba
    This important notification was visible
    to you, but you didn't notice.
[18:07] Chiba
    I know exactly how shaken you were.
[18:10] Aono
    Aiko...
[18:13] Aono
    Let me hear it.
[18:15] Aono
    Let me hear the message Aiko left for me.
[18:22] Aiko
    Aono-kun.
[18:23] Aiko
    Just sending a text seems bland,
    so I'll tell you directly.
[18:28] Aiko
    Thank you for everything.
[18:34] Voice
    Someone fell!
[18:35] Voice
    Call an ambulance!
[18:40] Chiba
    Do you understand now?
[18:41] Chiba
    You were too late.
[18:47] Aono
    You're lying!
[18:54] Aono
    Aiko...
[18:57] Chiba
    You're Yumi-san's subordinate...
[19:01] Naeko
    Don't!
[19:12] Chiba
    How could you be so reckless?
[19:14] Naeko
    It's only natural! After all, I...
[19:17] Naeko
    I...
[19:18] Naeko
    Chiba-kun, you're...
[19:23] Naeko
    After all, I...
[19:29] Naeko
    I'm a police officer.
[19:32] Naeko
    It's only natural.
[19:38] Chiba
    I parked my car far away so
    the suspect wouldn't notice.
[19:42] Chiba
    I'm going to carry you to a nearby hospital.
[19:45] Chiba
    Do your best to bear it.
[19:46] Naeko
    Okay.
[19:49] Sato
    Chiba-kun!
[19:50] Chiba
    Sorry. Could you handle the rest?
[19:58] Chiba
    It should be around here somewhere.

[20:09] Chiba
    Damn. The light's taking forever.
[20:16] Chiba
    There aren't any people or cars.
[20:17] Chiba
    Maybe I'll cross.
[20:20] Naeko
    You shouldn't cross.
[20:22] Chiba
    What?
[20:24] Naeko
    You may think no one's
    watching, but I'm watching.
[20:27] Naeko
    You're watching, too.
[20:28] Naeko
    Once you go easy on yourself and
    break the rules, it becomes a habit.
[20:31] Naeko
    Habits are hard to break even if you want to.
[20:35] Naeko
    Do you not even understand that?
[20:37] Chiba
    Y-You...
[20:40] Naeko
    It's not superheroes that I like.
[20:43] Naeko
    Don't make me say it, dummy.
[20:46] Naeko
    Thanks, Kamen Baiya.
[20:49] Naeko
    Chiba-kun, you idiot. I hate you!
[20:56] Chiba
    A-Are you really my childhood
    friend Naeko-chan?
[21:00] Naeko
    You idiot.
[21:04] Naeko
    Took you long enough.
[21:13] Conan
    The light turned green a while ago.
[21:16] Chiba
    Oh, right.
[21:23] Conan
    Uh, oh! I forgot to return Naeko-san's
    phone after I picked it up.
[21:27] Yumi
    Hey, while I was sleeping at Chukichi's
    place, Miwako called me 54 times.
[21:34] Yumi
    I've been trying to call her
    back, but her line's been busy.
[21:37] Yumi
    Did something happen?
[23:09] Amuro
    Yes.
[23:10] Amuro
    As you said, I gave all the
    information I could to that boy.
[23:16] Amuro
    Though my information didn't do
    much to help him solve the case.
[23:22] Kuroda
    It's a minor matter.
[23:23] Kuroda
    It's better not to have to
    put out unnecessary fires.
[23:27] Kuroda
    More importantly, how is that going?
[23:32] Amuro
    Nothing yet.
[23:34] Kuroda
    Don't neglect to make your reports, Bourbon.
