Even destiny serves as a clue to a deduction.

And the light of truth pierces through the most mysterious case.

Conan, Kogoro and Officer Yamamura.

The briefcase is the link over time and space.

He sees through the one and only truth.

A child in appearance with the I.Q. of an adult.

His name is Detective Conan!

A client's call to solve the mystery of the briefcase,

we headed to the Aoiya Inn

with Officer Yamamura.

A man wearing a red jacket was found dead

in the Kashiragami Forest.

Strangely, the man was wearing a sweater in the middle of summer.

Car keys and cigarettes were found on him

but without his driver's license or matches.

The briefcase in question was entrusted to the innkeeper

five years ago by a long-haired man wearing a red jacket.

But...

apparently someone came and take it

while impersonating Pops Kogoro.

The briefcase contained

five-year-old sports newspaper

and a bundle of hair!

"The Kogoro Mouri's Impostor (Part 2)"

Then... Does this mean...

Yes. This is a homicide.

And the culprit knew

where the "Closed for cleaning" sign is.

That means, the culprit is among the employees.

"Masao Jinbo (34), Yoshiro Onda (58), Eiji Urakawa (37)"

The culprit is probably is the person

that has something to do with the long-haired man

who committed suicide four years ago!

And probably the long-haired man

didn't commit suicide at all.

He was killed.

Someone had tampered the body on purpose.

But who? And why?

Officer Yamamura! I found a cell phone.

What?

It was in the jacket of the victim.

I found one phone number in its memory.

Would you like to try?

Yes. Of course!

"Redial 01"

Tatsuo! Is that you?

What happened to that gold mine of yours?

Let me know when you get your hands on it!

Oh, yes, I got a call from your landlord.

He says he won't extend the contract

and he'll have to evict you if you don't pay the rent.

Hey, are you listening to me?

-Excuse me. -Hey, got a customer!

Call me back later!

He hung up.

He mentioned something about a gold mine.

And he said that the contract can't be extended

unless the rent is paid.

Extend?

Anyway, we found that the name of the victim

is "Tatsuo Mori".

It's one step forward in solving the case.

What? How did you know his name is Tatsuo Mori?

Look! The phone has a name label on it!

Using a name label like a little kid. How immature!

Sorry for being immature!

I have one on mine, too!

What?

It's fine because you're still a kid!

What's that supposed to mean?

Hold on. That means the murderer is.

Hey, officer.

Can you give me more details

about what the long-haired man had on him?

What?

You already asked that before that.

He had a receipt for the milk and bun he bought four years ago!

Well... see.

Then, would you like to see the photos!

Photos?

I came to the inn today to ask about these photos.

This is the front and back of the crushed milk package.

The crushed bun and cigarettes

The convenience store receipt was found in his wallet.

The July 10 date of the receipt

it is the date of the tour the employees went on, right?

Yes.

Yes! That was it!

Now I see it! What the culprit wanted!

Hey, officer.

What?

By any chance, did you find a dead body

in the Kashiragami Forest after the employee trip

four years ago?

Yes, we found one.

Near the fallen Jizo statue.

Then by any chance was it the person who found it...

What?

How did you know?

Just as I thought. He's the killer.

And, the sports newspapers there

probably is the map where something is hidden.

What I need now is proof.

If my deduction is correct...

There must be some here.

Traces of the culprit on that shogi board

and that table.

I found it! That is it!

Hey, kid! You're not allowed to go in there!

I've been asked by Pops Kogoro!

I was told to look at the table and the board very closely.

What? Detective Mouri told you?

Yes, and I was also told to

take a close look at the light in this room.

The light?

He says it is the key in running down the culprit!

What?

Anyway, the estimated time of death

is between 4 pm and 5 pm today!

That time, the culprit placed the closed for cleaning sign

and collected long hairs in the bathroom.

He took it to the room.

And tried to divert our attention

by making it look like a curse of the long-haired man!

If only the employees of the inn know where the sign is,

we have just about found the culprit!

I want all of the employees here now!

We want to interview each one

about the early evening hours today.

Wait, officer.

Can't employees who have never seen or heard

about the man who died four years ago be excluded?

What?

Weren't you all here

when the man deposited the briefcase

with Mr. Onda five years ago?

Well... I received the case from the man in his room.

He was hired four years ago in spring.

And I just told the employees

that I have asked Detective Mouri

to come to check the case left with me five years ago.

I never mentioned it came from the long-haired man.

I see. So...

the connection between the briefcase and the long-haired man

wasn't known to everyone in this inn.

Hey. I am not the killer.

If I am the one, I won't keep it for five years.

I would have pried it open.

And isn't it puzzling?

Such an important case contained only old sports newspapers.

The culprit probably

took away something wrapped in newspaper

and has already gone far away from here.

Unless this newspaper has some special meaning,

we don't know anything.

You're right.

Hey.

What does "Mae-5" mean?

Pardon?

See that? I see "Mae-5" written before

the name of the tournament champion Akagimaru.

That means he ranked No. 5 among the maegashira wrestlers.

Since he belonged to the East Division,

he was East maegashira No. 5.

What's maegashira?

Does it have to do with the Kashiragami Forest?

What relation, dummy!

How about with the fallen Jizo statue?

Absolutely not!

Maegashira is...

A sumo wrestler ranking behind the grand champion Yokozuna

is champion Ozeki followed by the Sekiwake and komusubi ranks.

No. 5 means...

he ranks No. 5 among the maegashira wrestlers.

Okay. Then...

Akagimaru must have won the tournament

when he wasn't especially strong

because he was very cautious!

Cautious?

Because look!

Akagimaru fell in the hole only once!

What?

This means that the sumo wrestler fell in a hole, right?

It says "push-down" below that black circle.

That's not a hole!

It's a symbol for loss!

It means that he lost the match

on the eighth day of the tournament!

So, it doesn't mean he took eight steps and fell in a hole!

Anyway, I want you to call

all the employees for questioning.

Of course, we won't make any exceptions!

So, you don't have anyone in particular who can corroborate

what you were doing during those hours.

Yes.

Okay. Next, please.

Excuse me.

Will it be long?

I want to start cleaning up.

I have to prepare breakfast for tomorrow morning.

Can't I leave early?

No. That's not possible!

"Aoiya Inn"

So, I've questioned every one of you.

Most of you don't have alibi as to your whereabouts

between 4pm and 5 pm.

Of course! My employees work without interruption.

I don't have in my employ

anybody to monitor and clock others at work!

I'm impressed.

Officer Yamamura

Yes?

Did you see Conan and my father somewhere?

No.

Yes, Yamamura speaking.

Mr. Mouri?

Yes...

All right.

Excuse me. My father...

Well...

He went to ask neighbors around the area

and was taken under police custody for suspicious behavior.

He's at a police station.

What?

Looks like Conan is with him.

Anyway, I will go to pick him up at the station.

So, stay here and wait in this room!

Well...

How about us?

You can all go to sleep now.

We will hold a more thorough investigation

on a later date!

Bye!

Rocks. It can't be...

What...

I guess you've been looking for this, Mr. Jinbo.

No..

Or should I say the man

behind the 100-million yen blackmail case!

What?

I found as soon as we checked through

the serial numbers of the bills.

Five years ago, that the money was extorted

from a candy manufacturer by two men.

One of them being you,

and the other is

the long-haired man who had the case

kept by the innkeeper.

And the sport newspaper in the briefcase

pointed to the location of the money.

Akagimaru who made the headlines

was East Maegashira No. 5!

Maegashira,

literally meaning front head,

was the key suggesting the fallen statue in the forest.

Walk east five steps from the statue.

You take eight steps from there

according to Akagimaru's win or loss record.

If you dig the spot there,

you're expected to find a pot filled with money!

Right? Mr. Mouri?

Yes.

The reason why the long-haired man

put the newspaper inside the case

and gave it to the innkeeper for storage

is because he was aware

that you might kill him

to get the entire fortune.

Well, it was quite natural for him to notice that.

He probably was responsible for carrying the money.

And he was told meet in this forest,

which is a well-known suicide spot.

This is corroborated by the fact that

he included a memo in the case a message cursing you

just in case you would come and kill him

before taking the money alone

as a revenge.

Sure enough, you killed him in this forest,

making it look like suicide

and appeared in the inn with confidence

hiding your face with a hat, glasses and beard.

However, what you got was a memo cursing you to death.

You couldn't give up

and decided to investigate by working for the inn.

Time passed, and the body of the long-haired man was found.

This led to your discovery that the innkeeper

kept the briefcase for five years

and has requested me to conduct an investigation.

You hired the man to pose as me

and get the case before I do.

You wanted to see what's inside the case.

However,

you only found it contained an old sports newspaper.

The man who expected to get his share of the money got angry.

He threatened you saying that

"If you don't give me my money,"

"then I will let the real Kogoro Mouri everything!"

You had no choice but to kill him

and left the mystery for me to solve.

The best proof is

the fact that you have come here to find the money.

Now, let's go to the police station.

What are you talking about?

I was just inspired by the newspaper and came here.

I thought that I may be able to help the investigation.

Get off it.

In fact, the long-haired man died four years ago on July 10.

At that time, I was on the employee's trip.

No! That's the thing.

He was not killed in summer four years ago.

That was in fall five years ago!

Immediately after he deposited the briefcase at the inn!

You planted the milk, cigarettes, bun

and the convenience store receipt later!

You did it to mislead us

regarding time of death

and to make sure you have an alibi!

The milk package and receipt

came from another suicide case you found

after the employee trip four years ago!

That is why the long-haired man was wearing a sweater

and had cigarettes but not lighter or matches!

You removed the driver's license from him

because the license was soon to expire.

Your alibi will not work

if the body have a driver's license on him

that expired a year earlier.

You placed the bundle of hair in the newspaper because...

You wanted to direct police attention to the fact that

the person who killed the impostor is linked to the long-haired man.

And make the police think

you're not a suspect because of the receipt.

We know everything you planned!

Then, how did you know that the milk package and receipt

were placed later?

What?

The man may have actually had them with him, right?

Well, that's...

The straw!

The milk package did not have a straw attached to it.

That is proof that milk has been emptied

then someone refilled it in the package,

and sealed the lid with glue again and placed it beside the body.

No one puts an opened package of milk

inside a knapsack, right?

Yes... That's right!

Then, did you see it?

Did you see me kill the long-haired man?

Certainly, it happened too long ago to determine

whether you committed that murder.

However, we have proof that you killed the man

who posed as me!

What?

To carry a body and hang it from a high place,

the person carrying it must reach as high as the ceiling.

What the killer used to reach that high

was the shogi board and the table.

Of course, he had to take off his socks

in order not to slip.

I heard from the forensics that

there are footprints found on them.

What will happen

if we checked the prints against yours?

Oh, yes.

I did use them as a stool!

When I changed the light bulbs in the room.

I'm not lying!

If you check the light bulb,

my fingerprints should be there.

Yes, surprisingly, we found your fingerprints

under a thick layer of dust!

They probably were there for a long period of time!

Still, your footprints were there,

suggesting that you were the killer!

I've never heard of an inn that does not wipe desks

until a thick layer of dust collects on the light bulb!

Mr. Jinbo, let us all stop this.

Let's not tamper with time.

But...

But how did you know it was me?

You told us.

In the lobby, when you delivered my daughter's cell phone.

That time, you gave it to me without hesitation,

when Officer Yamamura was there,

someone you had never met before.

You told me, " Is this your daughter's?"

What about that?

I saw the name seal that said "Ran Mouri"

pasted on the cell phone.

That's why...

That's right. You knew me the moment you saw me.

That I am the real Kogoro Mouri.

I was really excited.

To see the great Sleeping Kogoro in action.

I can only recall up until

Conan tried to drag me into the forest.

I was astounded

when you phoned me instructions

to go to the forest for your deduction show.

Dad, why did the people at the inn call me Miss Echigo?

Never mind.

Hey!

-Excuse us. -Excuse us!

Is this the way to Aoiya Inn?

We're trying to get there

to see Detective Kogoro Mouri!

We got off the bus here but don't know how to get there.

Oh! You don't need to do that.

Here...

What a coincidence!

We were just on our way back there!

Do you want a ride?

Yes, of course! Is it really okay?

No big deal. Come on!

Great!

Thank you so much!

By the way, what's your name?

What? My name?

Let's say I'm just a "man of the world"

going by the name of Kingoro Toyama.

That old man never learns...

Next Conan Hint:

"Rotation"

Next episode has a unique trick.

We need to get our arms ready for the next case.

We're going to shoot the breeze!
