That's good.

Beer is great!
**[00:12] Ran**
Dad, don't drink too much.
**[00:15] Kogoro**
I know.
**[00:18] Kusano**
Anyway, listen to this.
**[00:20] Yamanashi**
What is it?
**[00:21] Kusano**
It's about the other day.
***SIGN*** Kusano Tomoya (30)
Salaryman
**[00:23] Kusano**
What a masterpiece.
**[00:27] Kusano**
While heading home the other day, I saw
a strange man in front of my house.
**[00:31] Kusano**
Totally suspicious, right?
**[00:34] Kusano**
So I reported him to the police.
**[00:39] Stranger**
* You're calling me suspicious?*
* That's ridiculous.*
**[00:42] Stranger**
* I came to check on my coworker*
* who lives in this apartment,*
**[00:45] Stranger**
* but I forgot his room*
* number, so I texted him.*
**[00:48] Kusano**
*Sorry about that. My mistake.*
**[00:53] Stranger**
* You're the guy who should've*
* minded his own business!*
**[00:56] Kusano**
Can you believe that happened?
**[00:59] Yamanashi**
You sure do love to meddle
in other people's business.
**[01:02] Kusano**
I prefer to think of myself as considerate.
**[01:05] Kusano**
Besides, it's his fault
for behaving suspiciously.
**[01:17] Conan**

***SIGN*** Troublesome Kindness
**[03:11] Conan**
"Troublesome Kindness!"
**[03:17] Kusano**
Everyone should be grateful for my actions.
***SIGN*** Kotani Shin (32)
Restaurant Customer
**[03:22] Kusano**
By the way, something else
happened to me the other day.
**[03:27] Kusano**
I was waiting in line to use the ATM
**[03:30] Kusano**
when I noticed a man behaving strangely.
**[03:35] Kusano**
He was standing in front of the ATM without
using it while talking on the phone.
**[03:40] Kotani**
*Yes, yes. I understand.*
**[03:43] Kotani**
*What? Next month, too?*
**[03:45] Kotani**
*Next month will be difficult.*
**[03:47] Kotani**
*Fine. I'll see what I can do.*
**[03:50] Kusano**
*I figured it must be phone fraud,*
**[03:53] Kusano**
so I reported him to the police immediately.
**[03:58] Kotani**
*This really isn't phone fraud.*
**[04:00] Kotani**
* My mother called me. It has*
* nothing to do with this.*
**[04:04] Kotani**
*I was transferring money to my workplace.*
**[04:06] Police**
*So it was a mistake.*
**[04:08] Boss**
*Kotani, what have you done?!*
**[04:12] Boss**
*The other party hasn't receive the funds yet!*
**[04:14] Boss**
*It's causing a huge problem!*
**[04:16] Kotani**
*I'm sorry.*
**[04:17] Boss**
*You'll pay for this.*
**[04:20] Kusano**
Can you believe what happened?
**[04:22] Kusano**
He's hardly fit to be a working
member of society, don't you think?
***SIGN*** Yamanashi Hajime (30)
Salaryman
**[04:25] Yamanashi**
I wouldn't go that far.
**[04:27] Kusano**
Guys like him don't get it until
something that drastic happens to them.
**[04:31] Yamanashi**
That's awful.
**[04:40] Kotani**
*Patient. Be patient.*
**[04:42] Kusano**
What's his deal?
**[04:44] Kogoro**
What is it, kid?
**[04:46] Conan**
Nothing.
**[04:49] Kogoro**
He's just drunk.
**[04:55] Waiter**
Excuse me. Are you all right?
**[04:57] Kotani**
Yeah.
**[04:59] Kogoro**
Excuse me. Could I get another beer?
**[05:02] Waiter**
Yes, sir.
**[05:03] Ran**
Dad, if you get drunk, I'm leaving you here.
**[05:06] Kogoro**
I'll be fine. Make it a large.
**[05:07] Ran**
Conan-kun, have you had some of this?
**[05:10] Ran**
It's good.
**[05:12] Ran**
Conan-kun?
**[05:18] Kusano**
Anyway, I'm a genuinely good guy.
**[05:22] Kusano**
I can't ignore someone who's in trouble.
**[05:25] Kusano**
I'll keep living my life
in service of others...
**[05:28] Waiter**
Sir, shall I bring you some water?
**[05:31] Kotani**
No. Could I get another beer?
**[05:35] Waiter**
Okay, one beer.
**[05:42] Kusano**
I'm going to the bathroom.
**[05:44] Yamanashi**
Take a right outside the restaurant.
**[05:46] Kusano**
I know.
***SIGN*** Kotani
***SIGN*** Mining Co.
**[07:20] Yamanashi**
It's an emergency!
**[07:21] Yamanashi**
Someone help!
**[07:24] Ran**
Conan-kun.
**[07:32] Kogoro**
What's the matter?
**[07:34] Yamanashi**
Kusano was taking a while
to return, so I came here.
**[07:41] Kogoro**
Ran, call an ambulance.
**[07:42] Ran**
Okay.
**[07:43] Kogoro**
And the police.
**[07:44] Ran**
Got it.
**[07:46] Kogoro**
Damn. He's dead.
**[07:53] Kotani**
No...
**[07:55] Kotani**
No way. No way!
**[07:58] Kotani**
*Wh-What's going on here?*
**[08:08] Conan**
* Kusano-san was struck on both*
* the front and back of the head.*
**[08:13] Conan**
* The weapon is the deck*
* brush next to the body.*
**[08:16] Conan**
* For some reason, there's a roll of toilet*
* paper stuck inside the hand drier.*
**[08:22] Conan**
*There are signs of a struggle.*
**[08:26] Conan**
*What's that?*
**[08:29] Kogoro**
Hey!
**[08:31] Kogoro**
I'm always telling you not to
wander around crime scenes.
**[08:34] Conan**
Sorry.
**[08:51] Takagi**
Let's go over your story again.
**[08:53] Takagi**
Your coworker Kusano-san was spending
a long time in the bathroom,
**[08:56] Takagi**
so you went to check on him, correct?
**[08:59] Yamanashi**
Yes.
**[09:01] Yamanashi**
I left the restaurant and was
heading towards the bathroom
**[09:04] Yamanashi**
when I nearly ran into a man
wearing a cap low over his eyes.
**[09:08] Yamanashi**
The man headed towards the stairs.
**[09:13] Yamanashi**
I ignored him and stopped
in front of the bathroom.
**[09:16] Yamanashi**
I heard the hand drier
running inside the bathroom,
**[09:20] Yamanashi**
so I thought Kusano would be coming
out right away and waited for a while,
**[09:25] Yamanashi**
but he didn't come out.
**[09:28] Takagi**
You didn't see anyone other than that man?
**[09:30] Yamanashi**
No, I'm absolutely certain.
**[09:33] Yamanashi**
That man who passed by
me must be the culprit.
**[09:37] Yamanashi**
If only I'd gotten a better look at his face.
**[09:44] Takagi**
Immediately after that, you heard
Yamanashi-san's voice and came here, right?
**[09:49] Kogoro**
Yeah. When we arrived,
Yamanashi-san was sitting here.
**[09:54] Kogoro**
I checked Kusano-san's pulse,
but he was already dead.
**[09:58] Takagi**
Mori-san, you didn't see the
man in the cap, did you?
**[10:02] Kogoro**
There wasn't anyone here when we arrived.
**[10:05] Takagi**
What about you two, Ran-san and Conan-kun?
**[10:08] Ran**
I didn't run into anyone on the way here.
**[10:11] Conan**
I didn't see the man in the cap either.
**[10:14] Takagi**
I see.
**[10:16] Megure**
We've started an emergency search for him
and are gathering information in the area.
**[10:20] Megure**
I hope we find some useful information.
**[10:23] Kogoro**
Since his wallet is still here, it looks
like the motive was a grudge and not theft.
**[10:28] Megure**
Most likely. That's how we're
investigating the case.
**[10:33] Takagi**
But what we don't understand concerns
the elevator next to the bathroom.
**[10:39] Takagi**
Why did the culprit walk all the way to
the stairs instead of using the elevator?
***SIGN*** Bathroom Elevator
***SIGN*** Stairs
***SIGN*** Restaurant
**[10:46] Kogoro**
That's obvious.
**[10:48] Kogoro**
If someone found Kusano-san while
he was waiting for the elevator,
**[10:52] Kogoro**
he'd have nowhere to run.
**[10:54] Megure**
But, Mori-kun, the culprit deliberately
activated the hand drier before he fled.
**[11:00] Megure**
Creating noise for a prolonged period of time
**[11:02] Megure**
would mean someone would
notice something was off sooner.
**[11:04] Megure**
In other words, didn't he do it so
the body would be discovered quickly?
**[11:08] Kogoro**
I see.
**[11:11] Kogoro**
If the culprit bothered
to do that, that means...
**[11:15] Ran**
That means...?
**[11:17] Kogoro**
What does it mean?
**[11:19] Takagi**
If the culprit wanted to
hang around the bathroom,
**[11:21] Takagi**
blending in with the customers at the various
restaurants on this floor would be the natural choice.
**[11:26] Takagi**
The culprit could've used the confusion cause
by the discovery of Kusano-san's body to flee.
**[11:31] Megure**
None of the restaurants reported
a customer wearing a cap.
**[11:36] Kogoro**
So the man came here, attacked
Kusano-san, and left.
**[11:42] Conan**
And it doesn't make sense
since he couldn't have known
**[11:46] Conan**
when Kusano-san would go to the bathroom.
**[11:48] Kogoro**
You don't know what you're
talking about, kid.
**[11:51] Megure**
No, he's right. It doesn't make sense.
**[11:54] Kogoro**
Yes, Inspector. Now that you
mention it, you're right.
**[11:57] Takagi**
Perhaps it was an indiscriminate murder.
**[12:02] Megure**
For the time being, we'll have to keep
all manner of possibilities in mind.
**[12:09] Conan**
Hey, mister forensics officer.
**[12:12] Conan**
Did you retrieve the belongings
that were in the drain?
**[12:15] Police**
Of course.
**[12:17] Police**
You mean this?
**[12:19] Conan**
*I knew it.*
**[12:22] Conan**
*He's lying.*
**[12:24] Kogoro**
You brat!
**[12:26] Kogoro**
How many times do I have to
tell you not to scamper around?
**[12:29] Conan**
Sorry.
**[12:33] Kogoro**
Scamper, scamper.
**[12:34] Kogoro**
Scamper, scamper.
**[12:35] Kogoro**
Scamper away, little froggies.
**[12:37] Kogoro**
Scamper away together.
**[12:40] Megure**
Mori-kun?
**[12:41] Takagi**
Could it be?
**[12:43] Kogoro**
Yes, indeed.
**[12:46] Kogoro**
I've figured out the truth behind this case.
**[12:53] Kogoro**
Allow me to be direct.
**[12:55] Kogoro**
The culprit in this murder is the man
who discovered the body, Yamanashi-san.
**[13:04] Megure**
Him? But what about the man wearing the cap?
**[13:08] Kogoro**
No such man exists.
**[13:10] Kogoro**
We were fooled by Yamanashi-san's lie.
**[13:17] Yamanashi**
You're lying!
**[13:19] Yamanashi**
What proof do you have?
**[13:20] Yamanashi**
I really did see him.
**[13:22] Kogoro**
Allow me to explain.
**[13:25] Kogoro**
* It's possible that this case couldn't have*
* been solved by anyone other than me,*
**[13:30] Kogoro**
who arrived just after Yamanashi-san.
**[13:34] Kogoro**
In fact, one clue is
disappearing as we speak.
**[13:38] Takagi**
A clue?
**[13:41] Kogoro**
In order to cover the sound
of Kusano-san's scream,
**[13:44] Kogoro**
you attacked him the moment he put
his hands inside the hand drier.
**[13:58] Kogoro**
Then you activated the hand drier once again
**[14:02] Kogoro**
so a third party would discover the body.
**[14:10] Kogoro**
However, something unexpected occurred.
**[14:16] Kusano**
*How could you?*
**[14:24] Kusano**
*You'll pay for this!*
**[14:38] Kogoro**
You believed the hand
drier hadn't drowned out
**[14:41] Kogoro**
the loud noises made during your scuffle,
**[14:49] Kogoro**
so you hastily changed your plan
and decided you'd discover the body.
**[14:58] Yamanashi**
*It's an emergency!*
**[14:59] Yamanashi**
*Someone help!*
**[15:04] Ran**
*Conan-kun.*
**[15:10] Kogoro**
*What's the matter?*
**[15:12] Yamanashi**
* Kusano was taking a while*
* to return, so I came here.*
**[15:18] Kogoro**
*Ran, call an ambulance!*
**[15:19] Ran**
*Okay.*
**[15:20] Kogoro**
*And the police.*
**[15:21] Ran**
*Got it.*
**[15:24] Kogoro**
*Damn. He's dead.*
**[15:33] Kogoro**
Naturally, there's no man wearing a cap.
**[15:36] Kogoro**
It's a lie you made up to
confuse the investigation.
**[15:40] Yamanashi**
That's a false accusation.
**[15:42] Yamanashi**
How can you call someone
a liar without any proof?
**[15:45] Yamanashi**
Do you have any proof?
**[15:47] Kogoro**
The first piece of evidence I mentioned
earlier is already disappearing.
**[15:52] Kogoro**
When I saw you in front of the bathroom,
**[15:55] Kogoro**
I felt as though something was off.
**[16:04] Kogoro**
The cuff of your pants was wet,
**[16:07] Kogoro**
probably because Kusano-san
grabbed it when he woke up.
**[16:12] Yamanashi**
What?
**[16:15] Yamanashi**
What are you talking about?
**[16:17] Yamanashi**
That's just speculation.
**[16:19] Yamanashi**
This is nonsense.
**[16:20] Kogoro**
Then allow me to confirm something.
**[16:22] Kogoro**
When you opened the bathroom door, you were
shocked to see Kusano-san on the floor.
**[16:27] Kogoro**
Then you shouted for help.
**[16:30] Kogoro**
In other words, you haven't set
foot inside the bathroom, correct?
**[16:33] Yamanashi**
That's right.
**[16:35] Yamanashi**
Maybe you just thought
my pant cuffs were wet.
**[16:38] Yamanashi**
Look. They're not wet.
**[16:41] Kogoro**
Now that they're dry, I can't prove it.
**[16:46] Kogoro**
But what about your shirt sleeve button?
**[16:50] Yamanashi**
Shirt sleeve button?
**[16:53] Kogoro**
When did you lose that?
**[16:56] Yamanashi**
I...
**[16:59] Kogoro**
Forensics recovered the button
from the bathroom drain earlier.
**[17:05] Conan**
*Hey, Mister Forensics Officer.*
**[17:09] Conan**
* Did you retrieve the belongings*
* that were in the drain?*
**[17:12] Police**
*Of course.*
**[17:14] Police**
*You mean this?*
**[17:20] Kogoro**
Kusano-san's body was
covering the bathroom drain.
**[17:26] Kogoro**
If you haven't set foot inside the bathroom,
then how did your button get in there?
**[17:35] Kogoro**
Yes, because that button came off
during your scuffle with Kusano-san.
**[17:41] Kogoro**
It proves you're the culprit.
**[17:47] Megure**
Well, Yamanashi-san?
**[17:50] Takagi**
Why did you kill your coworker Kusano-san?
**[17:55] Yamanashi**
I hated him.
**[17:58] Yamanashi**
Because of his meddling...
**[18:02] Yamanashi**
My sister was coming home
late from work one night
**[18:05] Salaryman**
Help me!
**[18:07] Yamanashi**
when she happened to witness a phantom
slasher stab someone to death.
***SIGN*** Police Box
**[18:16] Yamanashi**
The culprit pursued her.
**[18:18] Yamanashi**
She attempted to get help from a police box,
***SIGN*** Out On Patrol
**[18:20] Yamanashi**
but because of Kusano, the officers were
out patrolling for a suspicious person.
***SIGN*** Murder Witness Dead
***SIGN*** The Victim Ran to a Police Box, but Officers Were Absent Due to Being on Patrol
***SIGN*** Victim Yamanashi Akiho (25)
**[18:34] Yamanashi**
There was no one there to protect my sister.
**[18:38] Yamanashi**
When I learned it was Kusano's
fault that my sister died,
**[18:42] Yamanashi**
I wanted to kill him.
**[18:45] Yamanashi**
Damn. Damn it!
**[18:47] Yamanashi**
He was a truly terrible person!
**[18:50] Yamanashi**
Considerate? Yeah, right!
**[18:51] Yamanashi**
He was always sticking his
nose where it didn't belong!
**[18:54] Kogoro**
Despite the injustice you experienced,
what you did was still a crime.
**[18:58] Kogoro**
It's unforgivable.
**[19:01] Kogoro**
There's someone here who
chose not to commit a crime,
**[19:07] Kogoro**
even though he faced injustice like you.
**[19:09] Yamanashi**
Huh?
**[19:10] Megure**
What?
**[19:12] Kogoro**
Yes, you.
**[19:15] Kogoro**
You had your eye on Kusano-san.
**[19:18] Kogoro**
You in the hoodie.
**[19:28] Ran**
The man from the restaurant?
**[19:31] Kogoro**
You clearly bore some
grudge against Kusano-san.
**[19:44] Kotani**
Yes.
**[19:46] Kotani**
Because of his meddling,
I was fired from my job.
**[19:50] Kotani**
Lately I'd been keeping an eye on him
and had been rehearsing my own murder.
**[19:56] Takagi**
You what?
**[19:58] Kotani**
Not only that, but today
**[19:59] Kotani**
I'd planned to kill him using exactly
the same method you deduced, Mori-san.
**[20:06] Ran**
What?
**[20:07] Megure**
Unbelievable.
**[20:52] Kotani**
So when the murder occurred,
**[20:55] Kotani**
I thought I might've done it. I was scared.
**[20:59] Kogoro**
But you didn't do it.
**[21:01] Kogoro**
You made yourself stay in the
restaurant. You controlled yourself.
**[21:05] Kotani**
But if he hadn't acted,
**[21:09] Kotani**
I think I probably would've
attacked Kusano-san.
**[21:13] Kogoro**
You've been watching Kusano-san for a while.
**[21:16] Kogoro**
You've probably had plenty of
chances to kill him until now.
**[21:22] Kotani**
I...
**[21:25] Kogoro**
I believe you deliberately
chose not to commit a crime.
**[21:35] Kotani**
M-Mori-san...
**[23:17] Woman**
Hup.
**[23:21] Kogoro**
Ma'am, allow me to hold that.
**[23:23] Woman**
What are you doing?
**[23:25] Woman**
You're not trying to rob me, are you?
**[23:27] Kogoro**
What? Of course not.
**[23:32] Kogoro**
Hey, wait. Wait a minute.
**[23:35] Kogoro**
Jeez, it's so hard to be considerate.
**[23:40] Conan**
You've got that right.
