    Detective Conan Episode 981 "Welcome
    to Bocchan Restaurant (Part One)"
[00:00] Conan
    [OP]
[00:00] Conan
    [ED]
[00:00] Conan
    [Eyecatch]
[00:07] Haibara
    Yoshida-san?
[00:16] Haibara
    What is it?
[00:20] Genta
    It's really hurt. Did it get hit by a car?
[00:24] Conan
    No, it doesn't seem like it.
[00:28] Conan
    There aren't any signs
    that it was hit by a car.
[00:32] Conan
    Someone probably hit or kicked it.
[00:35] Ayumi
    Why would someone do something so cruel?
[00:37] Haibara
    It's unforgivable.
[00:39] Conan
    This might serve as a clue
    to finding the culprit.
[00:43] Conan
    These bloodstains and fibers...
[00:44] Genta
    The cat must've scratched something
    the culprit was wearing.
[00:47] Mitsuhiko
    Yellow and pink...
    That's distinctive clothing.
[00:52] Haibara
    We need to find the culprit
[00:56] Haibara
    but we also need to get
    this cat to a hospital.
[00:59] Haibara
    Yoshida-san, let's go.
[01:00] Ayumi
    Okay.
[01:01] Conan
    She's oddly kind to animals.
[01:06] Doctor
    He's in a weakened state, but he'll be fine.
[01:10] Doctor
    It'll take some time, but he'll get better.
SIGN    Beika City Animal Hospital
[01:16] Conan
    Now then, how will we find the culprit?
[01:21] Conan
    Is it a case?
SIGN    Bocchan Restaurant
[01:28] Conan
    Bocchan Restaurant?
[01:30] Kogoro
    You kids again?
[01:33] Kogoro
    Are we cursed in some way?
[01:35] Conan
    Right back at you...
[01:48] Mitsuhiko
    That man's shirt is yellow and pink!
[01:51] Genta
    Which means he's...
[01:53] Haibara
    The animal abuser.
[01:56] Conan
    Does this have something to do with that cat?
[02:04] Conan
    The rhythm on my lips is footloose!
[02:06] Conan
    The rhythm of my detective
    skills is perfect!
[02:08] Conan
    An odd restaurant with characters
    plucked from a novel!
[02:10] Conan
    The Detective Boys take
    on a serial murder case!
[02:12] Conan
    Always determining the one truth
[02:13] Conan
    with the body of a child
    and the mind of an adult,
[02:15] Conan
    his name is Detective Conan!
SIGN    Welcome to Bocchan Restaurant
    (Part One)
[03:56] Conan
    "Welcome to Bocchan Restaurant, Part One!"
[04:02] Takagi
    The victim was Bocchan Restaurant employee
    Koga Ushio-san, thirty-six years old.
SIGN    Koga Ushio (36)
    Bocchan Restaurant Head Receptionist
[04:07] Takagi
    The weapon hasn't been found, but is
    most likely a kitchen knife-like blade.
SIGN    Sanshiro Lake
[04:12] Takagi
    The body was abandoned in Sanshiro Lake.
[04:15] Takagi
    Judging by the body's condition, he
    was killed last night around midnight.
[04:22] Megure
    You lot again?
[04:25] Megure
    Try not to get in our way by
    walking around the crime scene.
[04:29] Kogoro
    Yes, sir.
[04:30] Megure
    Continue, Takagi-kun.
[04:32] Takagi
    Yes, sir.
[04:33] Takagi
    This morning, Bocchan Restaurant
    manager Akazawa Zenichi-san,
SIGN    Akazawa Zenichi (60)
    Bocchan Restaurant Manager
[04:38] Takagi
    whose home is located here at the
    restaurant, discovered the body.
[04:41] Akazawa
    Who could have killed Uranari?
[04:44] Conan
    It's possible that cat happened to be
    here at the crime scene last night.
[04:49] All
    What?
[04:50] Conan
    Since their crime had been witnessed,
    they intended to silence him.
[04:54] Ayumi
    That's why they hurt the kitty?
[04:57] Haibara
    How awful.
[04:59] Genta
    But it was a cat that witnessed their crime.
[05:01] Conan
    It's plausible given a criminal's mentality.
[05:04] Haibara
    Then we should find the culprit
    for that cat's sake, too.
[05:09] Ayumi
    Yeah.
[05:09] Mitsuhiko
    You're right.
[05:11] Genta
    Yeah.
[05:14] Takagi
    Regarding the criminal profile, since the murder
    occurred within the restaurant late at night,
[05:17] Takagi
    it's hard to imagine that it
    was committed by an outsider.
[05:20] Genta
    So it's likely that the murder was committed
    by someone who works at Bocchan Restaurant.
[05:25] Conan
    The culprit is probably someone
    who works at the restaurant.
[05:28] Chiba
    Inspector Megure.
[05:29] Chiba
    All the employees have arrived for work.
[05:32] Megure
    Everyone's here, huh?
[05:33] All
    What?
[05:49] Akazawa
    That's our uniform.
[05:53] Conan
    What is that?
[05:55] Employee
    Boys, Uranari's been killed.
[05:58] Employee
    Indeed.
[05:59] Employee
    Indeed.
SIGN    Bocchan
    Shima Rokusuke (22)
[06:00] Bocchan
    What evildoer could do such a thing?
[06:02] Bocchan
    The sun may forgive them, but I will not!
SIGN    Kiyo
    Kiyohara Uni (71)
[06:06] Kiyo
    How marvelous.
[06:07] Kiyo
    Bocchan's sense of justice is
    this old Kiyo's pride and joy.
[06:12] Conan
    Bocchan? Kiyo?
[06:15] Yamaarashi
    Now you've done it, you dastardly Red Shirt!
SIGN    Yama Arashi Hotta Izumi (32)
[06:18] Yamaarashi
    All to get at Madonna!
SIGN    Madonna
    Toyama Chiaki (24)
[06:20] Madonna
    Please, Yama Arashi-san.
[06:23] Madonna
    You make it seem like
    I'm the reason for this.
[06:26] Akazawa
    I'd never do anything as
    senseless as kill someone.
[06:30] Akazawa
    Right?
[06:31] Nodaiko
    Indeed.
SIGN    Nodaiko
    Yoshikawa Kozo (43)
[06:33] Nodaiko
    You suspect the president? What a fool.
[06:36] Yamaarashi
    Nodaiko, stay out of this!
[06:38] Tanuki
    Now, now.
SIGN    Tanuki
    Tanuma Toyoo (58)
[06:39] Tanuki
    Let's not cast suspicion upon each other.
[06:42] Bocchan
    You're always afraid to
    rock the boat, Tanuki.
[06:47] Conan
    Bocchan Restaurant recreates the
    world inside a novel, doesn't it?
[06:51] Akazawa
    I'm impressed you noticed, son!
[06:53] Akazawa
    That's our selling point.
[06:54] All
    What? A novel?
[06:57] Mitsuhiko
    You haven't heard of "Bocchan"?
[07:00] Haibara
    Well, they are first graders.
[07:03] Conan
    Yeah.
[07:04] Conan
    Mitsuhiko, could you explain?
[07:08] Mitsuhiko
    "Bocchan" is a famous novel written
    during the Meiji Era by Natsume Soseki.
[07:15] Mitsuhiko
    The protagonist Bocchan leaves
    his old maidservant Kiyo-san in Tokyo
[07:19] Mitsuhiko
    to begin teaching at a school in Shikoku.
[07:23] Man 1
    Grasshoppers? These are locusts!
[07:26] Man 2
    Grasshoppers and locusts are the same thing!
[07:28] Mitsuhiko
    But his students pull pranks on him,
    like putting grasshoppers in his bed.
[07:34] Mitsuhiko
    The principal Tanuki is irresponsible.
[07:37] Mitsuhiko
    Meanwhile, he learns that his colleague
    Uranari-kun's fiancée, Madonna-san,
[07:42] Mitsuhiko
    has been taken from him
    by head teacher Red Shirt.
[07:45] Mitsuhiko
    The righteous Bocchan is
    unable to forgive them,
[07:48] Mitsuhiko
    so he and his colleague Yama
    Arashi-san beat up Red Shirt
[07:52] Mitsuhiko
    and his obsequious sidekick Nodaiko.
[07:55] Mitsuhiko
    It's a very satisfying story!
[07:58] Genta
    Sounds interesting.
[08:00] Ayumi
    And...
[08:02] Ayumi
    You're lucky, miss.
[08:03] Ayumi
    You get to wear those pretty clothes
    while bringing customers their food.
[08:08] Madonna
    That's not my only job.
[08:10] Ayumi
    You do other stuff, too?
[08:20] Both
    Bocchan Dancers?
[08:22] Ayumi
    They all dance together...
[08:30] Haibara
    We should get started on
    looking for the culprit.
[08:33] Conan
    Yeah.
[08:34] Conan
    The culprit is probably one of them.
[08:39] Bocchan
    Since we're temporarily closed,
    they could let us leave.
[08:43] Yamaarashi
    The police insist we stay
    so they can question us.
[08:47] Nodaiko
    But they'll be providing food,
    so we won't have to buy our own.
[08:51] Yamaarashi
    Don't you have any ambition?
[08:54] Bocchan
    I do appreciate not having
    to buy my own lunch.
[09:01] Conan
    Those three...
[09:03] Conan
    Their colleague was just murdered.
[09:06] Madonna
    It's understandable.
[09:09] Madonna
    After all, the victim Uranari-san was—
[09:14] Conan
    Did he have problems?
[09:20] Akazawa
    You think I did it?
[09:23] Megure
    We received testimony.
[09:26] Megure
    You and the victim Uranari-san, or
    Koga Ushio, were romantic rivals.
[09:32] Megure
    You fought over Toyama
    Chiaki-san, who plays Madonna.
[09:35] Akazaka
    That's—
[09:36] Madonna
    No!
[09:38] Takagi
    And you live on restaurant grounds.
[09:41] Takagi
    It's possible you invited over your
    romantic rival last night, and...
[09:47] Akazawa
    Impossible.
[09:48] Akazawa
    He was responsible for all
    of our reception staff.
[09:52] Akazawa
    What kind of manager would murder
    the backbone of his business?
[09:57] Kogoro
    One thing may have led to another.
[09:59] Kogoro
    You invited Uranari-san over and
    asked him to leave Madonna-san alone.
[10:03] Kogoro
    But he wouldn't listen, so without
    thinking, you stabbed him.
[10:06] Akazawa
    Why would I have been holding a knife then?
[10:09] Kogoro
    To threaten him.
[10:11] Kogoro
    After all, Red Shirt is a dastardly fellow
    who will do anything to get his way.
[10:14] Akazawa
    Please don't confuse the novel with reality.
[10:18] Akazawa
    If you think I did it, I'd
    like to see some evidence.
[10:25] Madonna
    Is that true?
[10:27] Madonna
    Did they both harbor
    romantic feelings for me?
[10:30] Takagi
    You didn't know?
[10:33] Madonna
    I thought they were simply pretending
[10:36] Madonna
    in front of our customers as
    part of our business strategy.
[10:44] Ayumi
    It must be shocking to learn that
    two men were fighting over her.
[10:50] Mitsuhiko
    Not only that, but if a murder
    was committed because of it...
[10:55] Genta
    That would be hard.
[10:56] Conan
    Come to think of it, what was
    she about to say earlier?
[11:00] Haibara
    Something about Uranari-san.
[11:02] Chiba
    Inspector.
[11:05] Megure
    The victim Uranari had a terrible reputation?
[11:09] Kogoro
    Are you sure you're not mistaken?
[11:12] Kogoro
    Uranari is a kind-hearted and good man.
[11:14] Chiba
    In the novel.
[11:16] Chiba
    But apparently they're all totally
    different from the characters they play.
[11:22] Takagi
    What do you mean?
[11:23] Chiba
    For example, the dastardly Red Shirt
[11:25] Chiba
    is a good-natured man who
    cares for his employees.
[11:30] Chiba
    Bocchan is actually a twisted
    man with no sense of justice.
[11:34] Chiba
    Yama Arashi is a delicate crybaby.
[11:38] Chiba
    And Madonna seems plain,
[11:40] Chiba
    but she wrestled as a student.
[11:44] Chiba
    Uranari was incredibly strict,
[11:47] Chiba
    and he often yelled at his subordinates
    as the head receptionist.
[11:52] Uranari
    Your acting is weak! All of you!
[11:55] Uranari
    You're getting paid, aren't you?
[11:57] Uranari
    Perform your roles thoroughly!
[11:59] Uranari
    Idiots! Fools! Morons!
[12:01] Uranari
    Got it?
[12:03] Chiba
    Naturally, everyone working in customer
    service strongly disliked him.
[12:09] Conan
    So that's what it was.
[12:11] Haibara
    The thing she almost said.
[12:13] Kogoro
    So they're nothing like their
    characters from the novel.
[12:17] Kogoro
    Inspector, that means the culprit is
    one of the good guys from the novel!
[12:21] Kogoro
    Either Bocchan or Yama Arashi!
[12:23] Megure
    Stop thinking about the novel already.
[12:27] Chiba
    But they did have old scores to settle.
[12:30] Takagi
    We'll have to question
    the reception staff, too.
[12:35] Megure
    All right. Summon them.
[12:38] Conan
    Not just Red Shirt, but Bocchan and Yama
    Arashi had motives for murder, too.
[12:56] Mitsuhiko
    The question is their alibis.
[12:59] Kiyo
    We're lucky you happened to come
    stay at my place last night.
[13:05] Madonna
    We're able to confirm each other's alibis.
[13:08] Chiba
    It's about your employee...
[13:10] Akazawa
    Now you think my reception staff did it?
[13:13] Kogoro
    They have motive as well.
[13:17] Kogoro
    Just like you.
[13:20] Megure
    You were able to confirm
    theirs, too? Which means...
[13:26] Megure
    We haven't been able to verify
    last night's alibis for...
[13:29] Megure
    Shima-san, who plays Bocchan.
[13:31] Megure
    Hotta-san, who plays Yama Arashi.
[13:34] Megure
    Yoshikawa-san, who plays Nodaiko.
[13:36] Megure
    You three are the only ones.
[13:40] Bocchan
    Having an alibi is the bigger miracle.
[13:43] Yamaarashi
    It was midnight.
[13:45] Nodaiko
    And we're suspects because
    of that? Unbelievable.
[13:49] Megure
    Indeed. We'll have to question you later.
[13:54] Kiyo
    You mean we can't leave yet?
[13:57] Megure
    We appreciate your cooperation.
[14:03] Chiba
    We received testimony that those
    three without alibis hated Uranari.
[14:10] Megure
    Question everyone.
[14:11] Megure
    Whether it's those three or Red Shirt,
[14:14] Megure
    it's possible that someone mentioned
    a desire to kill Uranari.
[14:17] Takagi
    If we can find that...
[14:18] Kogoro
    Allow me to help.
[14:21] Conan
    We should split up and help, too.
[14:25] Nodaiko
    You think I hated Uranari-kun?
[14:30] Conan
    He was hard on you, wasn't he?
[14:32] Nodaiko
    My wife left me.
[14:35] Nodaiko
    She left me with massive amounts of debt.
[14:38] Nodaiko
    I have no choice but to work as hard
    as I can in order to pay it off.
[14:42] Conan
    What I'm asking about is—
[14:43] Nodaiko
    But that damn Uranari.
[14:46] Nodaiko
    He hurled abuse at me for my weak acting!
[14:49] Nodaiko
    Who the hell does he think I'm playing?
[14:54] Nodaiko
    No adult man wants to play this role!
[14:59] Conan
    He really is nothing like his role.
[15:02] Bocchan
    My mom croaked last year.
[15:05] Bocchan
    She was complaining until the end.
[15:08] Bocchan
    She said I was trash who could never
    hold down a job for very long.
[15:12] Bocchan
    So I'm clinging to this job
    to get back at my dead mom.
[15:17] Bocchan
    But that damn Uranari!
[15:18] Bocchan
    He tells us to act, but there
    are limits to what a man can do!
[15:22] Bocchan
    Besides, I don't care about justice.
[15:29] Yamaarashi
    My mother still sends me encouraging letters.
[15:34] Yamaarashi
    She says if I wish hard enough for
    something, my dreams will come true.
[15:37] Yamaarashi
    So I asked Uranari countless times
[15:41] Yamaarashi
    to let me play Madonna
    instead of Yama Arashi.
[15:46] Yamaarashi
    But he never listened!
[15:52] Tanuki
    Those three certainly hated Uranari-kun,
[15:56] Tanuki
    but I doubt they had the guts to kill him.
[15:59] Mitsuhiko
    The guts?
[16:01] Genta
    Anyway, this sure is good.
[16:03] Tanuki
    Locust tsukudani is our specialty.
[16:07] Genta
    So it's a fish called locust.
[16:09] Mitsuhiko
    It's not fish. They're grasshoppers.
[16:12] Genta
    Grasshoppers?!
[16:13] Kiyo
    Even if you don't like your
    role, you just have to do it.
[16:17] Kiyo
    Everyone was scouted for their specific role.
[16:20] Haibara
    You were scouted, too?
[16:23] Kiyo
    Based solely on my appearance.
[16:28] Kiyo
    After all, I'm nothing like Kiyo-san either.
[16:38] Madonna
    I'm just happy to have a job here.
[16:41] Ayumi
    Well, everyone would want to play Madonna-san.
[16:45] Madonna
    That's not what I meant.
    I had a younger sister.
[16:49] Madonna
    She loved the novel "Bocchan."
[16:51] Madonna
    When she learned about this restaurant,
    she said she wanted to work here.
[16:56] Madonna
    But six months ago, she died from an
    illness called subarachnoid hemorrhaging.
[17:04] Madonna
    I thought I could work here in her
    place, so I asked them to hire me.
[17:09] Ayumi
    So you carried out your sister's wish.
[17:13] Madonna
    But maybe it was a mistake.
[17:17] Madonna
    If me working here caused a murder, then...
[17:30] Akazawa
    I guess there's no need to keep
    up the act in front of a child.
[17:34] Akazawa
    Naturally, I knew that
    everyone hated Uranari-kun.
[17:40] Akazawa
    But you need people like
    that to manage a business.
[17:47] Akazawa
    Because he understood that,
    he played the unlikable role.
[17:52] Conan
    So he was an ideal business partner.
[17:56] Conan
    But it's true that you were
    romantic rivals, right?
[18:01] Akazawa
    Opening Bocchan Restaurant has
    been my dream since I was young.
[18:04] Akazawa
    I worked really hard to
    gather enough capital.
[18:08] Akazawa
    I never experienced love or marriage.
[18:11] Akazawa
    I can't believe I developed
    a romantic rivalry at my age.
[18:29] Haibara
    We didn't find anything conclusive.
[18:33] Conan
    Is the culprit one of
    those three or Red Shirt?
[18:39] Conan
    We'll figure it out tomorrow.
[18:44] Conan
    However, the next day...
[18:58] Megure
    "I offer my own death as an
    apology to the man I killed."
[19:02] Takagi
    Inspector, this was found on
    the altar in Red Shirt's home!
[19:07] Megure
    That's probably the weapon
    used in Uranari's murder.
[19:12] Megure
    After killing his romantic rival Uranari,
[19:15] Megure
    he realized he couldn't escape his
    guilt, so he took his own life.
[19:19] Kogoro
    I knew from the start that
    the culprit was Red Shirt.
[19:24] Megure
    Who started saying it was Bocchan and
    Yama Arashi during the investigation?
[19:29] Genta
    So it was Red Shirt.
[19:32] Ayumi
    It must be hard for her.
[19:35] Madonna
    It's my fault...
[19:37] Mitsuhiko
    You mean she thinks it's because she was
    trying to fulfill her sister's wish.
[19:43] Haibara
    You don't seem satisfied.
[19:46] Conan
    If he really did it,
[19:48] Conan
    then why leave the murder
    weapon on the altar?
[19:51] Mitsuhiko
    Maybe he disposed of it initially,
[19:53] Mitsuhiko
    but once he decided to kill himself,
    he left it there by way of apology.
[19:57] Conan
    And why didn't he write his
    note on a piece of paper?
[20:01] Haibara
    Because their handwriting would give it away.
[20:03] Mitsuhiko
    You mean Red Shirt's death wasn't a suicide?
[20:06] Both
    What?!
[20:07] Conan
    I'm saying it's possible that it was faked.
[20:10] Conan
    They knocked him out and
    hanged him by the neck.
[20:14] Conan
    Then they fabricated a suicide note
[20:16] Conan
    and placed the murder weapon on the altar
[20:19] Conan
    to frame Red Shirt for the
    murder of Uranari-san.
[20:23] Haibara
    It's possible.
[20:24] Conan
    If that's true, then they
    must have left some evidence.
[20:32] Conan
    It's damp?
[20:34] Conan
    There are drops of water on the leaves
    of the branch beneath it, too.
[20:38] Conan
    His hair and clothes are wet, too.
[20:40] Conan
    Why?
[20:42] Kogoro
    He just got out of the bath.
[20:44] Kogoro
    You're getting in the way of
    the adults! Get out of here!
[20:48] Mitsuhiko
    If Conan-kun is right, then the
    culprit is one of those three.
[20:53] Genta
    It could be Yama Arashi.
[20:54] Genta
    He's big, so he could've carried Red Shirt.
[20:58] Conan
    We still don't know that
    the suicide was faked.
[21:01] Ayumi
    If he could speak to us, we could
    ask him who the culprit is.
[21:07] Haibara
    I wonder if he's all right.
[21:10] Ayumi
    I'm glad he'll live, but...
[21:13] Haibara
    He was beaten all over, and
    two of his legs were broken.
[21:17] Conan
    Then it couldn't have been possible.
[21:19] Mitsuhiko
    What's impossible?
[21:23] Genta
    What's gotten into you?
[21:25] Conan
    You found that cat here, right?
[21:27] Ayumi
    He was meowing under there.
[21:30] Conan
    Bocchan Restaurant is pretty far from here.
[21:32] Conan
    A cat with two broken legs couldn't
    have traveled that distance.
[21:37] Haibara
    You mean...?
[21:39] Conan
    Yeah.
[21:39] Conan
    That cat was attacked not at
    Bocchan Restaurant, but near here.
[21:44] Mitsuhiko
    So, what?
[21:50] Haibara
    Edogawa-kun!
[21:52] Conan
    It's a bloodstain. What's that?
[21:54] Conan
    That cat's fur is stuck to it.
[21:57] Conan
    The crime actually took
    place here two nights ago!
[22:08] Conan
    It's clear now.
[22:10] Conan
    Red Shirt didn't kill Uranari-san.
[22:14] Conan
    And Red Shirt's suicide was
    also a disguised murder!

[23:45] Bocchan
    What's with the weird phrasing?
[23:47] Yamaarashi
    You think we did it?
[23:49] Megure
    Judging by the strength of the
    force applied to his neck,
[23:52] Megure
    we believe it was applied by a third party.
[23:58] Conan
    A powerful force was applied
    to his neck? That means...
[24:01] Bocchan
    Are you serious?
[24:03] Nodaiko
    There's no way we'd kill the boss!
