Original subtitles

Love and hate are brought together.

Through both reasoning and suspense.

Officer Takagi made a mistake.

The Youth Detective Squad to the rescue.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Hey, everyone! Something has happened!

What? Officer Takagi?

Where is he now?

He's over there in that park.

Yes, really he's trying desperately to find something.

Is he finding evidence of a case?

No, he isn't, because he isn't wearing gloves.

I got it. I've got what he's looking for.

-What? -What?

That should be here somewhere.

It cannot be anywhere but here.

It's you...

We're ready to help you.

Well, you'd do the same for us if we were in trouble.

I know, I know.

You lost something like this, right?

How do you know about it?

Don't you know we're the Youth Detective Squad?

I can see everything you are doing.

If you don't find it,

you're in big trouble, aren't you?

Of course I am.

It comes second only to a police life. It is very important.

What you lost is...

Maybe not your purse, but...

You lost your police notebook?

Don't speak so loud.

This is no good at all.

"The Policeman's Missing Notebook Case"

This morning I realized that I had lost my notebook.

And I looked through my room but couldn't find it.

Are you sure you were carrying it on your duty yesterday?

Yes, I'm sure.

And then, on the way home,

I happened to pass in front of this park.

Shut your mouth! You, liar!

Hey, cut it out!

What're you doing?

Cheat. I ought to blow you away here and now.

-Help. I'm choking. -Hey, hey! Hold on, you guys!

Break it up, you two.

Step off! Don't mess with me!

I'm a police officer

and am telling you to stop fighting right now!

I must have lost it then.

So, you're looking for it around here.

Do you think that maybe one of them picked up the notebook?

That's right.

I think that's very likely.

So, do you remember those two men's names?

Or what about their addresses?

Wait, calm down.

Why can't you believe me, Hanzaki?

Hanzaki.

The younger one's name was Hanzaki.

Anything else you remember about them?

How can I believe you?

I'm going to tell you, my manager, that I'm still a struggling singer

because all those jobs that you got were always crap for me!

The truth is that you have to pay your dues

in Enka (Japanese Ballad) business. You know that!

Have a little more patience, please.

How many times are you going to say that?

I know you've deceived me for a long time.

Give me back my time up to now

and the money you owe me, you punk!

Hey, hey! Hold on, you guys!

So, he's a struggling singer.

Don't you remember what kind of shoes they were wearing?

That reminds me...

The man named Hanzaki was wearing sandals.

I see.

Perhaps he lives nearby.

Yeah. Okay, then.

Let's look for him together.

But what if that man hasn't picked it up?

Why don't we divide into teams of two?

One is to go find the man named Hanzaki,

and the other is to look for the notebook in this park.

Alright!

Four One-Two-Three. Go.

Sorry to leave you here. Hang on, see you.

No good, there is no name of that person.

What about asking the record companies?

I'm afraid that's impossible.

There're an awful lot of big and small record companies.

Okay, then we've got to go around asking one by one.

Excuse me, but do you know the man named Hanzaki?

He is a singer and supposed to live around here somewhere.

Pardon me, sir.

The police handbook.

Yeah. That's right.

I wonder what if he can't find it.

Perhaps he is in a pathetic state.

Idiot!

You lost your police notebook, which is supposed to be

an extension of a police officer's soul and mind?

Get out! You're fired!

Officer Takagi... What a real pity.

Hey, you!

This is not the time for a snack. Help me, you two.

Sorry.

They came back.

Hey, how did it go? Did you find the man?

No, we didn't.

We can't find him by name and looks.

We can't find it either.

Hey, Officer?

"Jiro Hanzaki (30), Enka Singer" -What're you doing here?

You are here!

You, yesterday...

I'm sorry for the trouble last night.

So is this the man everyone is talking about?

-Mr. Hanzaki! -Mr. Hanzaki!

Why now?

I just wish you had walked by earlier than you actually did.

Mr. Hanzaki, did you pick up anything last night?

My stuff... like this.

No, I didn't.

Perhaps neither did the manager, I think.

Okay, you didn't.

You lost your thing like this, right?

I am going to find it with you.

Thanks but you don't have to do that.

Just want to repay you for your kindness.

Last night, thanks to you,

the manager and I could get back together soon.

So, today, we were supposed to have a lunch meeting together, but...

I was waiting for him at my apartment, but he didn't come.

I guess he is getting drunk at his house, by now. He always boozes.

You know. That's the trouble.

I called him several times but the manager didn't pick up the phone.

That means he is now falling down drunk at his house.

I assure you.

If you think he doesn't show up no matter how long you wait,

then why don't you go to his house yourself?

Because it takes one and a half hour

to get to the manager's house even if I drive at top speed.

I think that's a bother.

Something is attached to you.

It's a shampoo.

A little while ago when I cleaned my bathroom,

I accidentally stepped on the shampoo bottle.

By the way, do you have the time, Officer?

1:00 pm. It's just 1:00 pm.

It's already 1:00 pm?

We'd better hurry and find it.

All right already. You don't have to help me anymore.

But...

So then, let me buy your lunch, please?

Just 2,000 yen and all you can eat for two hours!

Come on, come on.

No thanks, I'll pass on that one.

I understand but you don't have to be so modest.

All right, I'll eat as much as I can for two hours!

See you, Officer.

-What a strange man. -He's too weird.

If they hadn't picked it up,

then it must be still here somewhere.

That man, Hanzaki... I suspect he's up to something,

Yeah.

I wonder why he bothered to ask what time it was.

Yeah, it's hard to think that someone in this neighborhood

doesn't know that clock.

Yet, he bothered to ask Officer Takagi, what time was it?

What for?

I got it.

Have you found it?

No, not yet. I mean... it isn't about the notebook.

-All right. -Then what did you get?

Everyone, gather around.

What? That man named Hanzaki killed the manager?

Mitsuhiko, are you sure?

I'm 100 percent sure about it. And also he killed him just now.

Hanzaki seemed to think that he's still a struggling singer

because of the manager and to hold a grudge against him for it.

So far as I know now, he has a motive.

But...

The droplet of shampoo clung the bottom of his trousers, right?

Yeah, he said, he accidentally stepped on the shampoo bottle

while cleaning his bathroom.

First of all, I wondered why he lied about it.

Did he lie?

It goes without saying that you should roll up your pants

so as not to get it wet while cleaning your bathroom.

And if he rolled up his pants,

the shampoo shouldn't stick to the bottom of it.

That is, he was not cleaning his bathroom,

but he was in the bathroom for another purpose.

Wait a second, Mitsuhiko.

And then?

This morning, Mr. Hanzaki called the manager to come to his apartment,

saying that he wanted to make up with him.

That's enough.

I can't drink that much.

He skilfully encouraged the manager, a heavy drinker to drink Sake.

After waiting for the time to be right, at just before 1:00 pm.

He carried him to his apartment's bathroom

and had him drown in the bathtub.

Then he accidentally stepped on the shampoo bottle.

And he dashed out of the apartment then came to the park,

to set up his alibi.

To set up his alibi?

Yeah.

He's going to carry the body

out of his apartment in secret, perhaps tonight

and sink the body in the bathtub of the manager's house.

In doing this, the police will treat it

as an accidental death

and even if they treat the case as a homicide,

his estimated time of death

was around one this afternoon.

Yes.

By the way, do you have the time, Officer?

1:00 pm. It's just 1:00 pm.

At the time when the manager was supposed to be killed at home,

Hanzaki was here.

As the real police officer, Officer Takagi proves his alibi,

nobody doubts Mr. Hanzaki.

That's the perfect crime.

Well done, Mitsuhiko. Perfect reasoning.

I think it's far from perfect.

Officer Takagi... What a pity.

He lost his police notebook

and he was even used to set up the murderer's alibi.

Mitsuhiko, Did you say,

"Everybody knows that he or she should roll up their pants

when cleaning the bathroom."

That's just a matter of common sense all over the world.

Mr. Kogoro doesn't pull up his pants because he thinks it's a bother.

It's a...

Incidentally Dr. Agasa also doesn't.

That means there was a possibility

that he was really cleaning his bathroom.

And Officer Takagi came here

to search for his police notebook

because he happened to lose it.

It's very difficult to suppose that Mr. Hanzaki relied on such a chance

to establish his important alibi. What do you think, Mitsuhiko?

It's...

Your guess was far off the mark.

I won't take it.

Ayumi.

Cut it out, Ayumi.

Because, I can never forgive that man.

That man tried to use such a nice guy, Officer Takagi.

But, my reasoning was wrong, so...

What does that mean anyway?

What is what?

Look at that.

How strange...

He isn't eating anything yet.

Yeah, it's true.

Why?

That man... Is he still up to anything?

He's still not eating anything.

That's a waste.

But he cares only about what time it is.

Yeah.

He's only watching the clock.

How strange.

If he didn't get hungry,

why did he enter the All-you-can-eat-restaurant for two hours, at all?

Yeah, that's right.

How come?

I remember he said...

I am going to find that square thing with you.

So then, let me buy your lunch at that restaurant, please?

He relentlessly tried to be with him.

So that explains it.

Mitsuhiko, your reasoning isn't entirely true but half true.

What do you mean "half true"?

As you suspected, that guy is trying to kill the manager.

So, he entered this restaurant and is now passing himself off

as a customer in order to establish his alibi.

To establish his alibi?

If Officer Takagi hadn't sent him away,

he would have wanted to establish an alibi

by continuing to find the police notebook.

But you said Officer Takagi happened to come to the park today.

No. He knew Officer Takagi would be sure to come to find it,

perhaps because he picked it up last night.

You mean that man still has the notebook?

No. Unfortunately I'm afraid he's already thrown it out.

Yeah. There's no reason to keep such a dangerous thing around.

I see.

I said Mituhiko's reasoning was half correct.

What was wrong is the manager's death time.

The time isn't 1:00 pm, but even later,

around from two to two thirty or so.

But, it's just past 1:00 pm.

Yeah. The plot to kill the manager is now going on steadily.

Perhaps in the bathroom of his apartment.

That's why he cares about the time like that.

Anyway, it may not be too late now to save the manager's life.

-Yes! -But, wait, do you know

where is that guy's apartment?

Oh, no.

He'll never tell us if we ask.

Let's split up and find it.

-Yeah! -Yeah!

Even the Youth Detective Squad gave up on me.

Oh, man..

That struggling singer.

He's quite a character.

Last night, he was picking up concrete blocks there.

Whatever, but that's not what we want to know.

Instead, where does he live?

Well, I have no idea.

Hanzaki. His name is Hanzaki.

He's an Enka singer.

He must be living around here.

Like I care. I don't like Enka at all.

-See you. -Hey! Wait!

Let's go over there.

Yes.

Hello, hello? Do you copy? We've got his address.

-Really? -Good!

The second floor of the Park Side Height, third room. Over.

Roger. We'll be there soon.

I'm going to get Officer Takagi.

Good idea.

Hopefully, if he can prevent the murder,

it'll help to offset the blunder of losing his police notebook.

Yeah.

The shop owner said that Hanzaki bought a big block of ice

at the store today.

And concrete blocks he picked up.

I got it. I saw through his trick.

And only if Hanzaki leaves the body laying on the stairs,

he can make it look like the manager himself

loses his footing and dies in his drunken state.

Good Heavens! We must hurry!

What? Murder case?

Not yet, but...

if you ask me, I mean... he's going to be killed soon.

I don't get what you're saying.

Sorry, but I have to find my notebook.

-But... -Leave it to me!

Hey, the man named Hanzaki

actually picked up your notebook yesterday.

Did he actually pick it up?

And he said, "I keep it in my apartment,

so please come to pick it up."

Where? His apartment!

Conan!

I managed to get a master key from the landlord!

Hey!

Conan!

-Is this his room? -Yeah.

Where? Where?

Where? Where? Where?

Where is my notebook?

-Way to go! -Way to go!

Now I'm going to untie you.

Thank you for your help.

It's you, yesterday?

"Seiichi Sugiyama (52), Hanzaki's manager" -Yes. My name is Sugiyama.

You helped me both yesterday and today.

Thank you, Mr. Takagi.

How do you know my name?

I don't think I told you yesterday.

I saw your name on your notebook.

Yes, this is it. I've found it.

You did it. You found it at last.

It would seem that that Hanzaki guy

didn't pick up the notebook himself,

but just saw him pick it up.

Yes. So it seemed.

What a relief it is.

Why are you here?

That's what I want to know about Hanzaki.

I've gone along with you a long time

because I believed you had a special talent.

Why didn't you believe in me until the end?

Hanzaki!

I'm sorry.

I'm Takagi, an officer of the Criminal Investigations Division 1

of the Metropolitan Police.

Mr. Hanzaki. Please follow me to the police station.

Yes.

Mr. Takagi.

I heard you prevented a murder.

Yes, sir.

Well done.

You did a great job and appreciate your hard work.

Yes, sir.

By the way, how are you feeling now? Is your headache gone?

Did you run a high fever of 39 degrees? What is your temperature now?

Did you have a stomach ache then?

Did you stumble and sprain an ankle?

And you couldn't move because of your nausea, could you?

Officer Takagi pretended to be sick in order to find his lost notebook.

-Looks like it. -He played hooky from work.

You idiot!

Shame on you as a police person for pretending to be sick.

Go to your police station, now!

Yes, sir!

Double Time!

Yes.

Please wait, Inspector Megure!

After all, he ended up being scolded by him.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Curtain"

Their identity in the next episode is...

I'm Jodie. Detective from the west, who is that?
