[00:07] Toto     Wait... [00:08] Toto     It's so long! [00:13] Toto     What a surprise. [00:15] Toto     Had no idea you aired out     the Floor of Indolence. [00:17] Ron     I drop it sometimes too,     so don't try this at home. [00:20] Toto     Yeah, never in my life will I do this. [00:29] Ron     You look unhappy, Toto. [00:31] Toto     It's just... I was going to say, [00:33] Toto     "You've been weird since we came     back from the observatory." [00:37] Toto     But thinking about it,     you've always been weird. [00:40] Ron     That means you're the one     who's being weird, Toto. [00:43] Toto     What? [00:45] Toto     Well, you might be right. [00:47] Toto     But only because you're      saying strange things. [00:49] Toto     The boat carrying the     observatory murderer sank, [00:53] Toto     the crew is all missing, and you claim it     wasn't an accident. Stuff like that. [00:57] Ron     Yeah, it's the only explanation      I can think of. [01:00] Ron     Whoever put this mark on my neck during     the Bloody Training Incident five years ago [01:05] Ron     also sank that boat. [01:07] Toto     If that's true,     I'm amazed you can stay so calm. [01:10] Toto     Isn't the terror creeping up on you? [01:12] Ron     Running around in a panic     won't help, will it? [01:14] Ron     As I take the appropriate measures,     I'll still enjoy my everyday life. [01:18] Toto     Must be nice to be so carefree. [01:25] Toto     Oh, I'm sorry! [01:27] Toto     Except... it wasn't there earlier, was it? [01:29] Ron     On a similar subject,     this wandered into my suitcase. [01:32] Ron     It's a souvenir from Nandan Island, right? [01:34] Ron     I'm sure Amamiya-kun will be thrilled. [01:36] Toto     Really? You think so? [01:38] Ron     Guaranteed to make her laugh! [01:40] Toto     Right?!

SIGN    #10 The Case of the Poisoned Latte [03:18] Amamiya     Now then, Isshiki... [03:19] Toto     She's ignoring it! [03:21] Amamiya     I have a job for you. [03:23] Toto     Huh? [03:25] Toto     She didn't give me any details.     I wonder what this job is. SIGN    Conference Room SIGN    No. 3 [03:32] Chikori     It's really him... SIGN    Lime Weekly SIGN    Reporter Monki Chikori [03:39] Chikori     Nice to meet you! [03:41] Chikori     My name is Monki Chikori.     I'm from Lime Weekly. [03:46] Toto     I'm Isshiki from Investigation Division 1. [03:48] Toto     So... you're a reporter? [03:50] Chikori     Yes! I'm here to shadow you     for a day, Detective Isshiki. [03:54] Toto     Y-You're shadowing me? [03:56] Chikori     That's right. [03:57] Chikori     For the "People to Watch" column of our     newest issue. I'd be much obliged! [04:01] Toto     "People to Watch"? [04:02] Toto     Don't you normally cover     entertainers or athletes [04:05] Toto     for something like that? [04:06] Chikori     After cases like the serial     drownings in the metropolis [04:10] Chikori     and the Hand Collector murders, [04:12] Chikori     I wouldn't want anyone other      than the man who solved them. [04:15] Toto     But that wasn't in any of the papers.      How did you know I solved those? [04:20] Chikori     Because I'm completely enamored! [04:21] Toto     En— [04:22] Chikori     Oh, I don't mean that in a weird way! [04:25] Chikori     I was kidnapped as a child, you see. [04:31] Chikori     The man who valiantly      cracked the case and saved me [04:35] Chikori     was a police detective. [04:38] Chikori     Ever since then, detectives     have been heroes in my eyes. [04:41] Chikori     That's why I became a reporter. [04:44] Chikori     It's also why, in my own way, [04:45] Chikori     I try to investigate unsolved cases     and impossible crimes. [04:48] Chikori     And I've watched you neatly unravel      one after another, Detective Isshiki. [04:52] Chikori     You're a hero among heroes. [04:54] Chikori     You're a god to me! [04:57] Toto     A god?! [04:58] Toto     She's an odd one. [05:00] Toto     She's under the mistaken impression     I cracked those cases, [05:04] Toto     but I can't expose Ron,     so I'm kinda stuck here. [05:06] Chikori     You're absolutely free to decline      if it'd be imposing. [05:09] Chikori     I understand it's a lot to ask. [05:12] Chikori     I'm incredibly grateful just to have met you! [05:15] Chikori     Honestly! [05:17] Toto     No, it's fine! [05:19] Toto     I'm just not assigned      to anything at the moment... [05:22] Chikori     Amazing! [05:23] Chikori     So they're reserving you      for the next big case? [05:26] Chikori     That's the ace detective      of Division 1 for you! [05:29] Toto     The misunderstanding is snowballing! [05:37] Chikori     Seeing a great detective at work      is just so moving for me. [05:41] Chikori     So, you take time to keep      all the paperwork in order too? [05:44] Toto     Oh, y-yeah. [05:45] Toto     That's actually the bulk of my job. [05:48] Toto     I want to get this over with     before she wises up, but... [05:56] Toto     I've just got more paperwork after this, [05:58] Toto     so how about an interview     over a quick cup of tea? [06:01] Toto     Would that work...? [06:02] Chikori     I'd be honored to join you for a drink! [06:13] Chikori     I'll have a hot cocoa. [06:16] Toto     I'll have an iced coffee. Black. [06:18] Ron     We don't have that. [06:19] Toto     What? [06:20] Ron     The only black thing here is sugar syrup. [06:22] Toto     Ron— [06:23] Chikori     What? [06:24] Ron     My name is Chasaku Kamokyuu. [06:27] Ron     There is no "ro" or "n" in it. [06:29] Toto     That's definitely Ron! [06:31] Chikori     A coffee shop that doesn't do coffee? [06:34] Toto     Can I have a word with you over there? [06:37] Chikori     That's a great detective for you!     Admonishing him so resolutely... [06:41] Toto     What are you doing? [06:42] Ron     Helping. [06:43] Toto     What? [06:44] Ron     I'm here to lecture the owner on how to     make my special black sugar syrup latte. [06:49] Toto     You sure have a lot of free time. [06:54] Ron     Only because someone's not bringing me work. [06:57] Toto     Uh-oh. [06:57] Ron     Got anything unsolved cases? [06:59] Toto     None today either. [07:01] Ron     Are you on a date? With that reporter lady? [07:04] Toto     Huh? How'd you know she's a reporter? [07:06] Ron     It's simple. [07:08] Ron     When she entered the cafe, the first thing     she checked was the magazine rack. [07:11] Ron     And the fact that the front of her shoes     are scuffed suggests she runs a lot. [07:16] Ron     Her phone case is also stuffed with cards. [07:18] Ron     Another telltale sign. [07:19] Toto     I see. [07:21] Toto     But this is for work!     She's really got the wrong idea... [07:24] Hayami     How about this place? [07:25] Julie     I think it'll do, yeah? [07:27] Tamada     I like it too. [07:29] Hayami     It's pretty fancy, isn't it? [07:31] Julie     I'll go get a shot of the sign outside. [07:34] Hayami     Got it. [07:35] Tamada     We'll go ahead and order. [07:37] Tamada     So, what do you want? [07:39] Hayami     I'll have a caffè latte. [07:40] Julie     Me too! I'll have the same! [07:42] Ron     Welcome. [07:44] Tamada     Um, three lattes, please. [07:46] Ron     Coming right up. [07:47] Ron     We're first come, first served,     so it'll be just a moment. [07:52] Ron     Here you are. One cocoa and one black. [07:54] Toto     Black? It isn't straight sugar syrup, is it? [07:57] Ron     You really think I'd do that? [07:59] Toto     O-Of course not. [08:01] Ron     I thinned it with water. [08:05] Toto     Chasaku-san, was it? [08:06] Ron     Chasaku Kamokyuu. [08:07] Toto     Are you seriously working here? [08:28] Ron     Done. [08:30] Ron     Here you are. Three caffè lattes. [08:32] Toto     Wow! [08:34] Toto     When'd you learn such an impressive skill? [08:36] Ron     The most important thing is drawing out     the platypus within the latte. [08:40] Toto     Nobody asked. [08:41] Hayami     What an adorable duck! [08:44] Ron     A d-d... [08:46] Tamada     Need a hand? [08:47] Hayami     I'm good! [08:49] Ron     A d-duck? [08:53] Chikori     Don't mind me. [08:55] Toto     Huh? Did you take my picture? [08:56] Chikori     I did. [08:57] Ron     Are you doing a report on him? [08:59] Chikori     Yes. He's giving me incredibly     valuable experience. [09:02] Ron     Got questions for him? [09:04] Toto     Hey. [09:04] Chikori     Of course! [09:06] Chikori     I'm going to write an article about      the impossible cases he's solved. [09:11] Ron     Tch, what a mess. I didn't realize     she was a crime reporter. [09:18] Ron     Help yourself. [09:19] Ron     A sample of our black sugar      syrup latte on the house! [09:22] Toto     That is not a sample size! [09:23] Toto     Y-You! Come with me a sec. [09:25] Ron     There's no need to thank me. [09:27] Toto     Get over here! [09:31] Toto     What are you playing at?! [09:33] Ron     Crime reporters can be sources     of critical intel on hard cases. [09:36] Ron     You need to build     a good relationship with her. [09:39] Toto     What? [09:40] Ron     All I can do right now is help set the stage! [09:42] Toto     Wait! Hold it! [09:45] Ron     Just between us, we also serve     soba-restaurant-style curry! [09:48] Toto     Then this isn't just a café anymore! [09:51] Chikori     Will you please stop causing     problems for Detective Isshiki? [09:55] Chikori     His time incredibly precious.     Too precious to waste on me, even! [09:59] Ron     You think that highly of him? [10:02] Ron     I like you. [10:03] Chikori     Where did that come from? [10:05] Toto     Now, now... [10:12] Tamada     Julie? [10:15] Ron     Miss?! [10:16] Toto     Wh-What's wrong? [10:18] Ron     Call an ambulance. [10:20] Toto     All right. [10:21] Ron     And the police. [10:23] Toto     What? [10:25] Ron     It was poison. [10:39] forensics     We discovered a cyanide capsule     in the deceased woman's cup. [10:44] Toto     I see. [10:47] Ron     Excuse me. [10:48] Ron     Don't worry. I will avenge you. [10:50] Toto     Wha—Hey! [10:52] Chikori     Please move aside! [10:53] Chikori     Crime scenes are a      great detective's battlefield, [10:55] Chikori     and this one is Detective Isshiki's specialty. [10:58] Ron     So he's a great detective, is he? [11:00] Chikori     He's solved a number of difficult cases. [11:02] Chikori     He's a super sleuth to those in the know! [11:05] Toto     There she goes again with the praise! [11:07] Ron     I see. Well, that is heartening. [11:10] Ron     Even a suspect like me     is glad he's on the case. [11:12] Chikori     What? You're... [11:14] Toto     A suspect? [11:15] Ron     Yes, because only three people had a chance      to put poison in this woman's coffee. [11:20] Ron     Me, who made the caffè latte, [11:22] Ron     and the two girls who were sitting with her. [11:29] Ron     The question is who poisoned      the drink and how. [11:34] Chikori     No need to worry. [11:38] Chikori     Detective Isshiki will neatly solve this case! [11:44] Toto     Wha? [11:49] Chikori     I'm sure you're uneasy with someone     like me covering this, but as a reporter, [11:52] Chikori     I'll do all I can to write     a good article about your work! [11:55] Toto     Um, I... [11:56] Chikori     I should mention that the cases     of the giant snowman in Kushiro [12:00] Chikori     and the assassination     of the eight-headed serpent in Izumo [12:03] Chikori     are among those I've covered. [12:04] Toto     Those are famously complex cases! [12:06] Ron     You're a very promising crime reporter.      What's your name? [12:10] Chikori     Monki Chikori. [12:13] Ron     From now on,     regardless of where the case occurs, [12:16] Ron     Detective Isshiki should be your first call. [12:18] Chikori     What? [12:19] Toto     He's trying to bag cases from all over     the country through her connections! [12:23] Ron     You should watch him work today, too! [12:25] Chikori     Why are you saying all this? [12:27] Toto     She's got a point. [12:33] Toto     I'm Isshiki with the Metro PD. [12:35] Toto     I'd like a word with the three of you. [12:36] Toto     We believe the culprit was someone     with access to the victim's cup. [12:40] Toto     So I'd like to know what you were all      doing at the time of the incident. [12:44] Toto     We'll start with the server. [12:46] Ron     I had just poured the perfect latte,     but something was strange. [12:50] Toto     What? [12:50] Ron     My platypus latte art was mistaken for a duck.     A truly bizarre phenomenon. [12:54] Toto     You really hold a grudge! [12:57] Toto     Next is Hayami-san who carried the lattes. [12:59] Hayami     Sure. [13:01] Hayami     When I took our lattes over      to the table, Julie... [13:05] (Flashback) Julie     Let's snap a pic with the three of us! [13:07] (Flashback) Julie     Okay, I'm taking it! [13:11] Hayami     After that, I took a phone call. [13:14] (Flashback) Hayami     Sorry, it's the manager     from my part-time job. [13:17] (Flashback) Hayami     Hello, this is Hayami. [13:18] (Flashback) Julie     I'm gonna take some     photos around the café. [13:21] (Flashback) Tamada     Okay. I'll wait here. [13:22] Hayami     I wasn't on the phone long. [13:26] (Flashback) Hayami     Sorry about that. I know I kept you waiting. [13:28] (Flashback) Julie     It's okay. [13:29] (Flashback) Tamada     Well, let's drink up! [13:31] Hayami     When I got back to my seat,     Julie was the first one to take a cup. [13:34] Hayami     Then she drank it and collapsed. [13:38] Ron     In other words, the only people who could     have poisoned the drink were me, [13:44] Ron     Hayami-kun who carried the lattes, [13:46] Ron     and Tamada-kun who was left alone with them. [13:49] Chikori     Don't steal Detective Isshiki's lines! [13:52] Toto     B-But... [13:54] Toto     I don't think it was you, Kamokyuu-san. [13:56] Toto     You couldn't have known who'd take which cup, [13:59] Toto     and I see no motive for you to kill at random. [14:01] Toto     Even if you wanted her dead, [14:04] Toto     it would've been nigh impossible to determine     which cup would end up in front of her. [14:09] Chikori     H-How inspiring! [14:10] Chikori     To think I get to witness Detective     Isshiki's godly deductions in person! [14:14] Ron     Indeed, I can see growth     in his deductive abilities. [14:17] Chikori     Who do you think you are, exactly? [14:18] Hayami     Um, it wasn't like that. [14:20] Tamada     Right? I remember it too. [14:23] Tamada     Julie didn't take the cup in front of her.     She took one from the other side of the tray. [14:28] Toto     What did you say? [14:29] Chikori     So how did the culprit get her to take     the poisoned cup in the back? [14:37] Toto     Ah, pardon me. Thank you for your testimony. [14:40] Toto     For now, I'll use your accounts     to begin sorting out the situation. [14:45] Toto     Bear with us a little longer. [14:51] Toto     There was no way to control the victim, [14:54] Toto     so maybe it was some kind of trick. [14:56] Chikori     Too bad we don't have the latte anymore. [15:00] Ron     Detective Isshiki. [15:03] Ron     You dropped this. [15:04] Toto     Huh? Thank you. SIGN    Memo SIGN    The victim's social media and the reporter's photos [15:16] Toto     Oh, that's it! [15:17] Toto     There may be evidence     on Julie's social media! [15:20] Chikori     H-How clever!     As expected of Detective Isshiki! [15:22] Toto     Could I see the photos you took as well? [15:25] Chikori     O-Oh, of course!     Sorry I didn't think of that sooner. [15:28] Chikori     I really only took shots of you,     Detective Isshiki, [15:31] Chikori     but I do have one photo of the lattes     the ladies ordered on the counter. [15:35] Toto     That's a huge help! [15:37] Ron     My lattes truly were perfect. [15:39] Chikori     And why are you over here with us again? [15:42] Toto     Got it. [15:43] Toto     I found Julie-san's feed. [15:45] Toto     She was certainly active. [15:48] Toto     Looks like she's having fun in every photo. [15:51] Toto     Oh, here! [15:52] Toto     This is the latte she drank... [15:55] Toto     But nothing looks weird here. [15:59] Toto     So the latte isn't giving us any clues. [16:02] Toto     This is a problem! How'd the culprit     get her to drink the poisoned latte? [16:11] Chikori     He's sweating bullets     and clutching his head... [16:13] Chikori     Somehow, I always thought he     solved cases more easily than this. [16:18] Toto     No matter how I look at it, there's nothing     wrong with the victim's latte. Right? [16:22] Chikori     This isn't how I imagined Detective Isshiki. [16:27] Ron     You're drenched in sweat, Detective Isshiki. [16:29] Ron     Here. A little refreshment on the house. [16:32] Toto     What? [16:33] Ron     A hot hand towel, grande size. [16:34] Toto     That's a bath towel! [16:35] Ron     Great, right? It'll steam up     your glasses in an instant. [16:38] Toto     Yeah, that's not great. [16:40] Ron     And with our logo,     it'll be a hit on social media! [16:43] Toto     That is so not how you want to stand out. [16:45] Ron     Exactly. [16:46] Ron     That's the key, Detective Isshiki. [16:50] Ron     When you pick the wrong way to stand out, [16:52] Ron     you pick the wrong way in life, too. [16:57] Chikori     Wh-What are you talking about? [16:59] Toto     That pose means... [17:02] Toto     We've solved the mystery. [17:03] Chikori     What? [17:04] Chikori     You know who the perpetrator is? [17:06] Toto     Huh? Y-Yeah, probably. [17:08] Ron     I'm going to space out for a bit.     Come keep an eye on me. [17:11] Toto     S-Sure. [17:12] Toto     Right! I have to hear his deduction! [17:17] Toto     I have a favor to ask you. [17:19] Chikori     What? [17:20] Toto     Could you hide anything in the kitchen     with a blade for me? [17:23] Chikori     Is there a chance of a second murder? [17:25] Toto     Um, yes. [17:27] Toto     Though it's the culprit who's in danger. [17:34] Toto     I would now like to solve     the mystery of Julie-san's death. [17:38] Toto     As I thought, this wasn't indiscriminate. [17:40] Toto     Julie-san was murdered on purpose. [17:45] Hayami     But... [17:46] Tamada     Julie picked her latte at random. [17:49] Tamada     I thought there wasn't any way     to make her drink a specific one. [17:52] Toto     No, that was exactly the trick. [17:54] Toto     The culprit knew Julie-san     would pick the one in the back. [17:57] Hayami; Tamada     What? [17:58] Toto     The answer lies in Julie-san's social media. [18:01] Toto     She's in the middle of every photo. [18:03] Toto     She shot things in a way     that drew attention to herself. [18:08] Toto     Knowing she was like that, it was obvious     that she'd choose most photogenic latte... [18:13] Toto     none the wiser it was poisoned. [18:15] Hayami     But all three lattes had     the same platypus on them. [18:19] Toto     Yes. [18:20] Toto     Up until a certain point. [18:23] Toto     What the culprit did was incredibly simple. [18:26] Toto     They just flicked a finger across      the unpoisoned lattes. [18:31] Toto     No one else would notice,     and it only took a second. [18:37] Toto     And it happened in the brief time     they were being carried to the table. [18:41] Toto     This photo is proof. [18:47] Toto     Hayami-san, will you answer me this? [18:50] Toto     How could two of those otherwise [18:52] Toto     untouched lattes end up with just      the eye of the design misshapen? [18:59] Toto     The only one who could've done it... [19:01] Toto     was you! [19:13] Hayami     But... But Julie was... [19:19] Hayami     She didn't just want to be     the center of everything. [19:23] Hayami     She couldn't stand it when     anyone else got attention. [19:26] Hayami     Even my boyfriend...     The instant I got scouted by a talent agency, [19:30] Hayami     she stole him from me! [19:32] Chikori     That's why you... [19:34] Toto     No matter how strong your hatred, [19:37] Toto     killing someone is never the right answer! [19:41] Hayami     What would you know about— [19:43] Ron     Bash your head in. [19:47] Ron     Anyone who'd dismiss another's life [19:50] Ron     has no right to live in this world. [19:53] Chikori     What is he saying? [19:55] Toto     B-Bash her head...? [19:56] Ron     Bash your head in. [20:01] Hayami     Yes... [20:33] Hayami     Ow! [20:35] Hayami     I reek of coffee. What is all this? [20:42] Ron     Thank you, Toto. [20:57] Toto     I'm really sorry! [21:00] Toto     I broke your digital recorder. [21:02] Toto     You were using that for your article, right? [21:04] Chikori     Yes, but it only had material      from today on it. [21:07] Chikori     And it doesn't compare in the least to getting     to see a great detective's true nature. [21:12] Chikori     I'm perfectly satisfied. [21:13] Toto     "True nature"? [21:15] Chikori     I realized something. [21:17] Chikori     When I saw you with your head in your hands,     thinking over every detail... [21:21] Chikori     I saw that a great detective's brilliance     isn't solving mysteries like magic. [21:25] Chikori     It's earnestly tackling     everything with all their strength. [21:29] Chikori     I respect you even more now,      Detective Isshiki. [21:32] Chikori     I hope we can work together in the future. [21:35] Ron     I can't wait. [21:36] Toto; Chikori     What the? [21:37] Ron     I'm delighted someone shares     my opinion of Detective Isshiki's greatness. [21:41] Ron     Here, I've made lattes for everyone. [21:43] Ron     Carry them, won't you, Detective Isshiki? SIGN    Great news! SIGN    Reporter connection SIGN    acquired! [21:45] Toto     I can't show her this! [21:47] Toto     These taste better when you mix them. [21:49] Chikori     Oh, thank you! [21:52] Ron     Chikori-kun, if you're hungry, [21:55] Ron     I'll order delivery for you. [21:56] Toto     Cafés don't do that! [21:59] Ron     Then you should treat her to home cooking. [22:01] Ron     I want some too, so perfect timing. [22:03] Toto     Seriously, what gives? [22:04] Ron     I'll even drown your dishes     in black sugar syrup for you! [22:08] Toto     You always do that!
