    Detective Conan Episode 987
    "The Company Dissolution Party"
[00:00] Conan
    [OP]
[00:04] Ran
    That was delicious.
[00:05] Conan
    I'm full, too.
[00:08] Kogoro
    What a truly delicious meal.
[00:10] Kogoro
    Given its effect on Japan's economy,
[00:13] Kogoro
    we can afford this kind
    of luxury once in a while.
[00:16] Kogoro
    Hey, kid. Don't forget to thank me.
[00:20] Conan
    You're right. Thanks, Mister.
[00:23] Toda
    Finally, a word from Kureno-san.
[00:26] Kureno
    Thanks for holding this
    company dissolution party.
[00:30] Ran
    Are they the guests in the private room?
[00:32] Kogoro
    Sounds like it.
[00:34] Kureno
    Thanks to all of you, this term our
    company did the best it's ever done.
[00:38] Kureno
    Unfortunately, despite our success,
    we've decided to sell the company.
SIGN    Kureno Jiro (38)
    President of Online 
    Shopping Site "Clerno"
[00:43] Kureno
    This decision was made with 
    all of our interests in mind.
[00:47] Kureno
    I'm not abandoning you and running away.
[00:51] Kureno
    Make sure you don't resent me for this.
[00:55] Kamijo
    Hold on.
SIGN    Kamijo Hiroo (30)
    "Clerno" Employee/Web Designer
[00:56] Kamijo
    I don't agree with the 
    decision to sell at all.
[01:01] Koshimoto
    He's right. Wouldn't we 
    normally discuss this first?
SIGN    Koshimoto Eiji (38)
    "Clerno" Employee/Merchandise
[01:04] Koshimoto
    It's too sudden.
SIGN    Narita Mayu (34)
     "Clerno" Employee/Accounting
[01:07] Narita
    It's fine.
[01:08] Narita
    You guys know our president isn't the type 
    of person to explain every little thing.
[01:13] Toda
    Now, now.
SIGN    Toda Junnosuke (33)
    "Clerno" Employee/Public Relations
[01:15] Toda
    Sir, thank you for all your hard work.
[01:18] Toda
    This isn't much, but it's a
    reflection of how we feel.
[01:22] Kureno
    What's this?
[01:24] Kureno
    Thank you.
[01:28] Kureno
    Guys, thinking back, I know things
    were tough when we first started,
[01:34] Kureno
    but the company grew this much
    because we worked together.
[01:39] Kureno
    I'm overjoyed that we made it to today.
[01:46] Kureno
    I can't breathe...
[01:47] Toda
    Sir?
[01:49] Kamijo
    Th-This is a joke, right?
[01:51] Koshimoto
    Kureno!
[01:53] Toda
    I-It's an emergency.
[01:55] Toda
    Narita-san, call an ambulance!
[01:56] Narita
    Got it.
[02:00] Kamijo
    Seriously?
[02:02] Koshimoto
    Are you okay, Kureno?
[02:07] Koshimoto
    Kureno?
[02:08] Koshimoto
    Hey, Kureno!
[02:10] Koshimoto
    Kureno!
[02:11] Koshimoto
    Kureno!

    Find the question that solves the mystery!
[02:18] Conan
    Apply miraculous detective skills
    to the secrets of the heart!

SIGN    The Company Dissolution Party
[04:11] Conan
    "The Company Dissolution Party!"
[04:17] Takagi
    The deceased is the president of online
    shopping website "Clerno", Kureno Jiro-san.
[04:22] Takagi
    He came here today to eat with his staff.
[04:27] Takagi
    And the man who reported the incident is...
[04:30] Kogoro
    Inspector.
[04:32] Megure
    Mori-kun.
[04:35] Kogoro
    I happened to be eating
    in the hall over there.
[04:39] Kogoro
    I came running when I heard shouting.
[04:42] Megure
    Mori-kun, you didn't witness the death?
[04:46] Kogoro
    I didn't see anything.
[04:48] Kogoro
    So, what's the cause of death?
[04:51] Takagi
    We believe he was poisoned.
[04:55] Kogoro
    Poisoned?
[04:58] Conan
    Judging by the photo stuck to the bouquet,
[05:01] Conan
    all the employees seemed to get along.
[05:04] Conan
    Huh?
[05:05] Conan
    What's this?
[05:08] Conan
    Hey, is this mark on his neck—
[05:11] Takagi
    C-Conan-kun?
[05:12] Kogoro
    You're always sticking your
    nose where it doesn't belong!
[05:14] Conan
    Ow!
[05:14] Ran
    Conan-kun, you shouldn't do that.
[05:17] Ran
    Go someplace else.
[05:18] Conan
    Sorry.
[05:20] Kogoro
    Jeez. Anyway, what's this mark on his neck?
[05:24] Takagi
    Oh, right.
[05:26] Takagi
    The bouquet Kureno-san received during the
    meal had a poison needle hidden in it.
[05:31] Takagi
    When he took the bouquet in his hands,
    the needle stabbed and poisoned him.
[05:36] Takagi
    It left a mark on his neck.
[05:39] Megure
    So, who prepared the bouquet?
[05:43] Takagi
    It was Toda-san.
[05:45] Takagi
    But the other three also touched the bouquet.
[05:50] Megure
    Let's start by questioning everybody.
[05:57] Takagi
    Forgive me for asking, Toda-san, but did
    you join the company after its formation?
[06:01] Toda
    Yes. I began working for President
    Kureno five years ago.
[06:06] Toda
    Until then, I'd been doing planning
    for an advertising agency.
[06:10] Toda
    I was recruited by this company,
    who was one of our clients at the time.
[06:15] Takagi
    What were you going to do after
    the company was dissolved?
[06:19] Toda
    I hadn't received a formal offer,
[06:23] Toda
    but I was planning to work with
    Kureno-san on his next project.
SIGN    Clerno
[06:27] Kureno
    Toda-kun, you've helped me a lot until now.
[06:31] Kureno
    I'd like you to serve in an even
    better position on my next project.
[06:37] Toda
    Thank you.
[06:40] Toda
    So there's no way I would
    have killed President Kureno.
[06:44] Megure
    But we've been told the poison was
    in the bouquet you handed to him.
[06:49] Toda
    The bouquet was a surprise.
[06:52] Toda
    I hadn't touched it since
    the start of the party.
[06:56] Takagi
    Toda-san, do you have any idea
    what happened to Kureno-san?
[07:00] Takagi
    Was there anyone who resented him?
[07:04] Toda
    I don't wish to speak ill of my friends,
[07:08] Toda
    but I do have some idea.
[07:11] Toda
    It's the designer Kamijo-san.
[07:14] Toda
    He was originally a famous web designer.
[07:17] Toda
    He's been overbearing
    since he joined the team.
[07:20] Toda
    On top of that, he's a big spender and
    keeps taking out advances on his salary.
[07:24] Toda
    Kamijo-san is in the most trouble
    if this team is dissolved.
[07:30] Kamijo
    Man, what a hassle.
[07:32] Kamijo
    I can't remember how long ago I started.
[07:36] Kamijo
    President Kureno suddenly
    contacted me one day.
[07:40] Kamijo
    I thought I'd live the laid-back
    freelance life forever,
[07:44] Kamijo
    but his terms were so generous,
    I agreed to work for him.
[07:48] Megure
    You didn't approve of the
    company's dissolution, correct?
[07:52] Megure
    We heard you requested
    advances on your salary.
[07:55] Kamijo
    It has nothing to do with money!
[07:58] Kamijo
    He always made decisions on his own,
[08:01] Kamijo
    but it was awful of him to make such a big
    decision without discussing it with me first.
[08:08] Takagi
    I suppose you're right.
[08:10] Megure
    By the way, Kamijo-san, what are you
    planning to do after the team is dissolved?
[08:15] Kamijo
    Who knows?
[08:16] Kamijo
    I haven't decided yet, but since
    I was originally freelance,
[08:19] Kamijo
    I'll be fine without a company.
[08:21] Kamijo
    Oh, right.
[08:23] Kamijo
    I think this was done by someone
    with a personal grudge.
[08:28] Kogoro
    A personal grudge?
[08:30] Kamijo
    Yeah.
[08:31] Kamijo
    So why don't you examine
    our belongings some more?
[08:36] Takagi
    We did take a quick look
    through everyone's belongings.
[08:42] Takagi
    Inspector, look at this.
[08:44] Takagi
    We found this among Narita-san's belongings.
[08:48] Narita
    I joined Kureno-san's team eight years ago.
[08:52] Narita
    I was in charge of accounting.
[08:54] Megure
    How did you end up joining Kureno-san's team?
[08:58] Narita
    I knew the president from before.
[09:01] Takagi
    Forgive me for asking,
[09:03] Takagi
    but were you and President Kureno dating?
[09:08] Narita
    Yes, although shortly after
    that picture was taken,
[09:12] Narita
    he said he'd fallen in love with
    someone else and broke up with me.
[09:16] Kogoro
    I'm sorry to hear that.
[09:18] Narita
    It's fine.
[09:19] Narita
    Jiro-san genuinely recognized the work I did.
[09:23] Narita
    That was enough to make me happy.
[09:26] Megure
    By the way, was there anyone who
    had problems with Kureno-san?
[09:30] Narita
    Well...
[09:33] Narita
    There's Koshimoto-san.
[09:36] Koshimoto
    Yes, Kureno and I had been
    friends since college.
[09:40] Koshimoto
    We'd been together since
    the site was established.
[09:42] Koshimoto
    I was in charge of merchandise.
[09:45] Takagi
    We heard you often clashed with Kureno-san.
[09:50] Koshimoto
    Yeah, we argued all the time.
[09:53] Koshimoto
    But so, what?
[09:56] Koshimoto
    We were just good enough friends that
    we could say anything to each other.
[10:01] Koshimoto
    If you suspect me, you should look into Toda!
[10:04] Koshimoto
    He had clients entertaining
    him practically every day.
[10:08] Koshimoto
    He was spoiled.
[10:10] Koshimoto
    I think he'd hate to lose
    that luxurious lifestyle.
[10:18] Megure
    It sounds like all the suspects have motives.
[10:21] Takagi
    Yes.
[10:22] Takagi
    Who do you think did it?
[10:24] Kogoro
    It was probably Toda-san.
[10:27] Kogoro
    The poison was in the bouquet he prepared.
[10:31] Police
    Excuse me.
[10:32] Police
    Inspector, we received new testimony
    from the restaurant staff.
[10:39] Kogoro
    Inspector, I'm certain it was Toda.
[10:44] Toda
    Yes.
[10:46] Toda
    Thank you.
[10:48] Toda
    Excuse me.
[10:50] Conan
    Mister, what are you doing?
[10:52] Toda
    Huh?
[10:53] Toda
    Oh. It's just you, kid.
[10:56] Toda
    I received an important phone call.
[11:00] Conan
    An important call?
[11:01] Toda
    I'm actually being recruited by a client.
[11:06] Toda
    I didn't trust President Kureno,
[11:09] Toda
    so I was secretly in discussions with them.
[11:12] Conan
    How bold...
[11:14] Toda
    I don't want the police to
    suspect me, so don't tell them.
[11:18] Toda
    This should keep you quiet.
[11:21] Conan
    Thanks.
[11:23] Toda
    It's a unsold product from our site.
[11:26] Toda
    Our imported toys were our top sellers.
[11:31] Conan
    It's so cool.
[11:33] Megure
    What? Is that true?
[11:36] Staff
    Yes.
[11:37] Staff
    The bouquet was here during the meal.
[11:41] Staff
    That tall man crouched over the
    bouquet and fiddled with it.
[11:46] Takagi
    You're absolutely certain?
[11:48] Staff
    Yes.
[11:49] Megure
    Thank you for the valuable information.
[11:52] Staff
    Well, I should go.
[11:54] Kogoro
    I knew it. I knew Koshimoto
    was suspicious from the start.
[12:00] Conan
    The old man's in great form today.
[12:02] Takagi
    Koshimoto-san was in charge of merchandise.
[12:05] Takagi
    He could have imported a poison
    along with the other merchandise.
[12:11] Kogoro
    Inspector, it was definitely him.
[12:14] Toda
    I can't believe this is happening.
[12:17] Kamijo
    Come to think of it, Toda, you're the one who
    suggested we throw a company dissolution party.
[12:22] Toda
    What does that mean?
[12:24] Toda
    You think I did it?
[12:26] Kamijo
    Who knows?
[12:27] Kamijo
    I don't know about that.
[12:29] Toda
    I know you were borrowing
    money from Kureno-san.
[12:34] Kamijo
    So, what?
[12:36] Kamijo
    That has nothing to do with this.
[12:37] Narita
    Cut it out.
[12:39] Narita
    The president just died.
[12:41] Kamijo
    What?
[12:42] Kamijo
    A man just died, and you're
    fixing your makeup.
[12:48] Megure
    Sorry to interrupt.
[12:52] Megure
    Where's Koshimoto-san?
[12:55] Toda
    Now that you mention it...
[12:59] Toda
    Koshimoto-san, where are you going?
[13:02] Koshimoto
    To the bathroom.
[13:03] Toda
    Should you be leaving the room
    without the police's permission?
[13:07] Kamijo
    We don't know how long we'll be waiting.
[13:10] Kamijo
    I'm sure it's fine if we go to the bathroom.
[13:13] Narita
    He's been gone since he left
    for the bathroom a while ago.
[13:16] Kamijo
    Come to think of it,
    he hasn't been back since.
[13:19] Kogoro
    What?
[13:22] Conan
    What's wrong?
[13:23] Kogoro
    Koshimoto-san ran off.
[13:24] Ran
    What?
[13:25] Conan
    But Mister, there are police
    posted at the restaurant exits.
[13:30] Kogoro
    You're right.
[13:31] Kogoro
    Then Koshimoto-san is
    still inside the building.
[13:34] Megure
    Find him immediately.
[13:35] Takagi
    Yes, sir.
[13:36] Conan
    I'll help.
[13:41] Police
    He wasn't in the hall.
[13:44] Police
    Nothing to report in the private rooms.
[13:47] Police
    Nothing to report in the kitchen.
[13:49] Ran
    He's not at the tables either.
[13:50] Kgooro
    Got it.
[13:52] Kgooro
    Inspector, he's not at the tables.
[13:59] Staff
    Huh?
[14:01] Police
    Is something the matter?
[14:03] Staff
    What?
[14:14] ---
    No!
[14:21] Takagi
    Inspector Megure, this was
    found next to the body.
[14:25] Kogoro
    Let's see...
[14:26] Kogoro
    "I killed Kureno."
[14:28] Kogoro
    "The team succeeded because of me."
[14:32] Kogoro
    "He claimed credit for everything."
[14:35] Kogoro
    "I couldn't forgive him."
[14:36] Megure
    In other words, it's a suicide note.
[14:39] Takagi
    We were able to confirm that it's
    definitely Koshimoto-san's handwriting.
[14:43] Police
    Inspector.
[14:44] Police
    The poison thought to be
    used in Kureno-san's murder
[14:48] Police
    was found in the body's jacket pocket.
[14:51] Takagi
    Inspector Megure.
[14:52] Megure
    All right.
[14:52] Megure
    We're starting to get the full picture.
[14:54] Megure
    Send the body to the coroner.
[14:59] Kamijo
    What's going on?
[15:01] Toda
    Kamijo-san's right.
[15:03] Toda
    If I hadn't planned this party...
[15:06] Narita
    Don't say that.
[15:08] Narita
    It's not your fault.
[15:10] Kamijo
    First the president, then Koshimoto-san...
[15:14] Kamijo
    Why is this happening?
[15:15] Narita
    Kamijo-kun, cut it out!
[15:17] Emt
    Excuse me.
[15:19] Emt
    Coming through.
[15:21] Emt
    Excuse me, coming through.
[15:27] Conan
    No, they're wrong.
[15:29] Conan
    Koshimoto-san was probably
    killed by one of them.
[15:36] Kogoro
    Ran, kid. We're leaving.
[15:38] Conan
    What? We're leaving already?
[15:40] Ran
    It's already so late.
[15:44] Conan
    I see. I figured it out.
[15:46] Conan
    But I need to find a way to
    check the back of the house.
[15:50] Conan
    Hey, Mister.
[15:52] Conan
    My toy car is in a room back there.
[15:57] Conan
    I'd like to get it before we leave.
[15:59] Kogoro
    Jeez. You're hopeless.
[16:04] Kogoro
    Did you find it?
[16:07] Conan
    No. That's odd...
[16:11] Conan
    I knew it.
[16:13] Kogoro
    Are you sure it isn't over here?
[16:24] Takagi
    What's the meaning of this, Mori-san?
[16:27] Kogoro
    I apologize for keeping everyone here.
[16:30] Kogoro
    I finally figured out the
    truth behind this case.
[16:34] Takagi
    But Mori-san, the note was
    written by Koshimoto-san.
[16:38] Takagi
    We even found evidence.
[16:39] Kogoro
    That's correct.
[16:41] Kogoro
    Koshimoto-san killed President Kureno.
[16:45] Kogoro
    He poisoned the needle, hid it
    inside the bouquet, and killed him.
[16:51] Kogoro
    But the problem is Koshimoto-san's death.
[16:54] Kogoro
    He didn't kill himself. He was
    summoned here and murdered.
[16:59] Kogoro
    He either wrote the suicide note voluntarily
[17:02] Kogoro
    or was made to write it by his killer.
[17:06] Kogoro
    By the way, Detective Takagi,
[17:07] Kogoro
    could you move to the middle of the room?
[17:10] Takagi
    What? Okay.
[17:12] Kogoro
    Look closely at the floor.
[17:14] Takagi
    All right.
[17:17] Takagi
    There's a faint smudge on the floor.
[17:20] Takagi
    It looks like something
    was dragged through here.
[17:23] Megure
    Which means his shoe came
    off when he was dragged.
[17:28] Kogoro
    That's right.
[17:29] Kogoro
    His murder probably wasn't planned.
[17:33] Kogoro
    Allow me to explain.
[17:35] Kogoro
    First, the culprit strangled Koshimoto-san
    to death using some kind of string.
[17:39] Kogoro
    They dragged the body to the door and
    attempted to make his death look like a suicide.
[17:44] Kogoro
    However, in their rush to leave,
[17:46] Kogoro
    the culprit left the scene of the crime
    without replacing his shoe on his foot.
[17:51] Megure
    Who left the room after Koshimoto-san?
[17:55] Toda
    Everyone, actually.
[17:57] Toda
    I went to make a phone call.
[17:59] Toda
    But I was with the boy then.
[18:03] Conan
    Yeah. I ran into him,
    and he gave me a toy car.
[18:07] Takagi
    C-Conan-kun.
[18:09] Narita
    I went to the restroom,
    but I didn't run into anyone.
[18:15] Kamijo
    I left the room, too, but I
    just went out into the hallway.
[18:20] Takagi
    What were you doing in the hallway?
[18:22] Kamijo
    I was talking to a female employee.
[18:25] Staff
    Excuse me.
[18:27] Staff
    He's telling the truth. I'm sure of it.
[18:31] Kamijo
    You're exactly my type.
[18:35] Staff
    Please, you're bothering me.
[18:37] Kamijo
    I-In any case, I have an alibi.
[18:41] Kamijo
    Wait a minute. That means...
[18:43] Takagi
    The culprit is...
[18:46] Kogoro
    Yes, that's correct.
[18:49] Kogoro
    The only person here who doesn't
    have an alibi is Narita-san.
[18:53] Narita
    N-No way! And that alone
    makes me the culprit?
[18:57] Narita
    You don't even have proof!
[18:59] Megure
    Well, Mori-kun?
[19:01] Kogoro
    Don't worry, Inspector.
[19:04] Kogoro
    There is proof.
[19:05] Narita
    What?
[19:06] Kogoro
    The culprit still has in their possession
    the weapon they used to kill Koshimoto-san.
[19:11] Takagi
    You're saying the weapon isn't the
    wine napkin hanging off the door?
[19:16] Kogoro
    It's not that.
[19:18] Kogoro
    The weapon is something much
    thinner than a wine napkin.
[19:22] Kogoro
    If you look at the body, you can see that the
    skin is raised just inside the ligature marks.
[19:28] Kogoro
    After strangling him using
    some type of string or cord,
[19:31] Kogoro
    the culprit strangled him
    again with the wine napkin.
[19:35] Takagi
    But Narita-san doesn't have
    anything like that on her.
[19:41] Takagi
    Could it be?
[19:46] Kogoro
    Come on, Narita-san.
[19:48] Kogoro
    If I'm wrong, let the police borrow your bag.
[19:52] Kogoro
    Your bag's shoulder strap and the ligature
    marks should be a perfect match.
[19:58] Toda
    Narita-san?
[19:59] Kamijo
    Why?
[20:02] Narita
    I didn't mean to kill him.
[20:04] Toda
    Then why?!
[20:07] Narita
    I couldn't forgive him after what he said.
[20:12] Narita
    Around the time the decision to 
    dissolve the company was made,

[20:16] Narita
    I found a strangely expensive and 
    mysterious product among his purchases.
[20:20] Narita
    For a long time, I wondered what it was.
[20:22] Narita
    Please be honest with me.
[20:24] Narita
    Did you import a poison?
[20:27] Narita
    You killed the president, didn't you?
[20:31] Koshimoto
    What should I do?
[20:32] Koshimoto
    I've done something crazy!
[20:35] Narita
    Koshimoto-san...
[20:36] Koshimoto
    I always resented him.
[20:38] Koshimoto
    He claimed sole credit for all our success,
[20:42] Koshimoto
    even though he couldn't
    do anything without me.
[20:45] Koshimoto
    So I...
[20:47] Narita
    Koshimoto-san, turn yourself in.
[20:49] Narita
    I'll go with you to the police.
[20:53] Koshimoto
    All right.
[20:59] Koshimoto
    But don't you think this was bound to happen?
[21:05] Narita
    What do you mean?
[21:06] Koshimoto
    There isn't anyone who truly
    loved that selfish guy.
[21:11] Koshimoto
    He was surrounded by enemies.
[21:13] Koshimoto
    Even if I hadn't done it, this
    would've happened to him eventually.
[21:16] Koshimoto
    Both you and I were just being used
[21:20] Koshimoto
    by that piece of trash.
[21:24] Narita
    What?
[21:26] Narita
    What did you say?
[21:29] Narita
    I looked up to the president.
[21:32] Narita
    I wanted to someday become
    an executive just like him.
[21:37] Narita
    I couldn't forgive him for insulting him.
[21:39] Narita
    And besides, Koshimoto-san
    didn't seem to know,
[21:44] Narita
    but the president said he wanted to
    work with this team again someday.
[21:49] Narita
    That's what he told me.
[23:22] Ran
    Dad, let's go.
[23:26] Staff
    Excuse me.
[23:27] Staff
    With everything that happened,
    I forgot to give this to you.
[23:31] Staff
    Here. This is for you.
[23:34] Ran
    That's great, Conan-kun.
[23:38] Conan
    Thanks.

    I can't believe I got a second one...
