Love and hate are brought together.

Through both reasoning and suspense.

A surprising island secret.

The battle of deduction ends in a twist.

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 television program pitting the best detectives from the East and West

brings us along with Heiji Hattori here to Okinawa.

We accompany the filming crew to an uninhabited island

where an unidentified body and a mysterious message is found,

Then a female member of the film crew, Yoshie Taira,

is murdered and a mysterious message is found near her body

"I'm the 'guso' messenger." (I Death's messenger)

then the boat we came on

and the captain disappeared.

Having no other choice, we wait for someone to come to rescue us

at the village head's villa that is on the island.

What was that?

Maybe it's...

Yes, I knew it! It's the rescue boat!

We're saved!

Something's wrong with that boat.

Yeah, there're no lights on

and it's not docked right.

"I'm the 'guso's messenger'." (I Death's messenger)

"Princess of the Island and the Dragon King's Palace (Part 3)"

Hey. It's already 5 in the morning.

No wonder I'm starved.

I haven't eaten a thing for half a day.

Yeah, I'm thirsty, too.

Shall we go get something for you from the kitchen?

There may be non-perishable food or canned juice.

I guess so.

Are they going to be okay, just those two girls?

They'll be fine.

I hear they're pretty strong.

There we go!

Rice crackers and fried dough cookies!

But won't eating things like that make you even more thirsty?

But, it's better than not having anything to eat, isn't it?

What was that sound?

I don't know.

It sounded like water dripping.

Oh, no. It's coming this way.

You don't think it's...

The death's messenger?

What're you two doing?

What're you two holding knives with your mouth like that?

Heiji.

We thought you were the death's messenger.

You know, the one that Mr. Daito was telling us about.

If you don't want it to suck your soul out hold a knife in your mouth.

But what's with you, Heiji?

How come you're all wet?

Oh, you mean this?

Heiji dove into the ocean after that.

Because he thought that if the killer threw our things away at the wharf,

his bag with his cell phone inside it

would be stuck on some coral around the area.

And did you find your bag?

No. It seems to have drifted into the sea.

It's written "Kachan".

While this one here is written "Chiyoni".

Hey, maybe "Kachan" refers to the maid, Kako Matsumoto.

I see.

"KA" is taken from her first name.

If she's a maid, it's only natural

that she'd spend most of her time in the kitchen.

Then, what about this "chiyoni"?

Huh, there's a faded writing over here.

It seems "chiyoni" was written over

what was originally written here.

It's faded and hard to read.

But I think it's "weatherfish".

Which mean that the picture that was drawn

on the door below "chiyoni" was weatherfish.

But, "chiyoni" and weatherfish have no connection whatsoever.

If the drawing under the word "kachan" is a crow means "karasu" in Japanese,

then they are more or less connected.

Because when they crow, it sounds like they're saying "ka-ka".

Karasu...

But, maybe that picture is just something that the girl drew by

looking at the picture on the folding screen.

Then, that's a white heron?

White heron?

The director was saying a while ago

that a white heron was drawn on the folding screen

that was stolen from the mayor 4 years ago.

It seems to be of National Treasure class

and is said to be worth 2 billion.

Bird, white hero, weatherfish.

With all these clues out in the open, nothing.

Tiger symbolizes Osaka.

Eagle, Fukuoka.

And Carp Hiroshima.

Sea bream and flatfish would be the Dragon King's Castle.

The Dragon King's Castle?

That's it!

I think something's strange about Conan, after all.

Are you sure he's not lying about his age?

I don't think he is...

Kazuha, what did you just say?

I asked you what did you just say?

Maybe he's lying?

-Heiji? -Conan?

The time now is 10 to 6 in the morning.

More than 12 hours have passed since Ms. Taira's been found!

If our deduction is correct, it should still be here.

Yeah, it should still be there.

It's nowhere.

Darn. I wonder if the killer got rid of it, after all!

No, we overlooked it.

These little footprints of mine.

Then, that's a trick, after all.

Yeah, we were completely deceived.

But, what're we going to do?

We figured out the killer, but have no evidence.

If we got nothing, we just got to come up with something

by luring him out to this forest that the princess lies asleep in.

Yeah, although that princess may already be crying.

Heiji!

Conan!

Really, where are they anyway?

The nerve making us worry like this!

Oh, well. All is well since we found out.

Found out what?

Don't tell me...

Right, the trick that the killer used.

As well as the fact that the killer stayed near us all this time

but was playing against us!

What? You mean the killer is among us?

Who is it? Tell us who? Quick!

Not just yet.

We'll decide who it is after listening to what everybody has to say.

First of all, Mr. Kume.

Let's start from you.

It's going to be really short, so bear with me a while, okay?

Will the rest of you who are waiting decide the order in which

you want to be asked.

Hey, what's taking them so long?

They've already been in there for about 30 minutes.

I'm sure they'll be coming out soon.

After all, he did say it was going to be really simple.

Hey, hold it!

Heiji?

Hey, what's up?

Nothing's up! He ran away!

Ran away? This means he's the killer, after all.

It's because you made that sarcastic remark, Heiji.

You didn't have to say,

"If I have to wait for you to talk, I'll turn into Taro Urashima".

I didn't have a choice, did I?

Since he refused to talk no matter what I asked him.

Let's split up and find Mr. Kume.

If he committed suicide going into the ocean, it wouldn't be right.

Hey, Kume!

Where are you?

Mr. Kume!

Hey!

What the?

What're you surprised for? You're the one who told us

that if we don't want our souls to be taken by the death,

we should hold knives in our mouths.

Isn't it, Mr. Daito?

Mr. Kume, the man you're after is still in the house.

He's fast asleep, though.

I borrowed his clothes to catch you.

To get you who killed Ms. Taira and the captain,

as well as wait for Mr. Kume, who you thought was coming!

The three were the thieves who not only kidnapped Miyako,

but also stole the folding screen,

and on top of that killed the maid, right?

Hey, just what do you think you're saying?

I was looking for Kume when I saw a suspicious silhouetted figure,

so I tried to catch him, that's all.

Besides, I couldn't have killed Ms. Taira, right?

The writing on the sand that was near that lady

was written right after the waves pulled away.

And you said it would've been impossible for me,

who was in the ship on the other side of the island to write it.

That's true.

Even if something is written on the sand before the tide pulls back,

it'll be washed away by the waves.

Therefore, it'd be impossible to leave the writing on the sand.

If it was really the waves that were pulling back then...

Come off it.

You saw it too, didn't you?

The sand was wet up to about a meter above the lady's head.

If the water was up there during high tide,

no matter how you think of it, the tide was receding, wasn't it?

That's we calculated wrong and were deceived.

The waves actually don't come up that far,

but because the sand was wet,

we mistakenly thought that during high tide,

the waves came all the way up there.

Right.

The time we found Ms. Taira was actually high tide.

If so, then it all fits just right, doesn't it?

If the tide is high, all you have to do

is write where the waves won't wash it away,

then lie Ms. Taira right next to the writing.

Okay, then why don't we go look for the writing right now?

Half a day has already passed since then.

If it was written where the waves wouldn't wash it away,

the writing would still be there, wouldn't it?

No, it was no longer there.

You probably erased it the minute we left the site, anyway.

Hey, hey.

But my footprints were still there.

When Heiji took the picture of my sandals and the writing.

I was standing right next to him.

But, my footprints were still there.

Yeah, but kiddo, the sand was wet all over...

I couldn't have wet the sand that way even if I used a bucket.

You didn't use a bucket.

You used the cruiser we came here on!

The waves that the cruiser created

wet the shore more than during high tide.

All you did was use it to your advantage.

You knew that the captain was going to go around the entire island

looking for the stuff in question

until it's time to leave.

And just what is that stuff in question supposed to be?

What else?

The anchor that I found.

He was looking for the "princess"

that was supposed to be tied onto the anchor.

"Princess"?

It was on the writing on the pillar, wasn't it?

The princess lies in A and not in B.

It's hard to understand what this means just as it is.

But if you put together the folk tale of Taro Urashima

and the fact that that this island is called Onikame Island,

then the puzzle fits...

The shell of the turtle.

Princess Oto lives in the Dragon King's Palace.

In other words,

the princess I's not in the sea, but on the shell of the turtle.

That is, it is in the forest on this island,

princess is a code name that the thieves called

the thing that was sunk in the ocean,

but was washed up on this island during the typhoon that struck a year ago.

This golden folding screen!

After they stole it, the thieves were at a loss

where to hide the folding screen,

so they put it in this air-tight case, tied it onto the boat,

sunk it deep into this part of the ocean that nobody dives into

with an anchor and decided to wait till things cooled off.

But, then a big typhoon hit a year ago.

And the boat was washed up to shore.

Although it was okay that one of the members came to see how things were,

but when the next typhoon hit,

the boat that the thief came on was washed away,

leaving him behind on this island.

That's why he left the writings

to indicate the whereabouts of the folding screen

for his fellow thieves.

And, since you figured out the meaning of the writing.

You decided to take revenge on the thieves

after hearing about the TV program

"Renown Detectives of the East VS. Renown Detectives of the West".

Since the thieves didn't know where the folding screen was yet,

you figured that there would be a high possibility

that the members of the thieves would come mixed up as the filming crew.

But, how would I be able to tell the thieves from the filming crew?

Taro Urashima.

See, like you were saying!

You feel like you turned into Taro Urashima.

You knew that the members of the band of thieves

who sunk the folding screen into the ocean,

would immediately figure out the meaning of the writings.

That's why you killed Ms. Taira

who came to look for it in the forest, right?

In the way that you tried to kill me a while ago.

It sure is an interesting deduction,

but, if that's the case, anybody could've committed the murder, right?

No, you're the one who committed the crime.

Unlike the captain who was killed violently,

Ms. Taira was treated as a corpse should be treated.

That's evidence that the killer knew that.

The true identity of Ms. Taira was actually the daughter of the Mayor,

Miyako who was kidnapped 5 years ago!

In other words, that kidnapping incident was made up

and Miyako herself was also a member of the band of thieves!

I realized that I figured out the meaning of why the thieves

called the folding screen "Hime" is Princess.

And the meaning of "Chiyoni" and "Kachan" that were written

by Miyako when she was little

and living in that house.

Folding screen was called "Hime"

because the name was taken from the Shirasagi Castle.

"Kachan" is the Karasu Castle, formally known as Miyamoto Castle.

In other words, it stands for Ms. Kako Miyamoto the maid.

"Chiyoni" came from the Chiyoda Castle,

which is also known as the Edo Castle.

The Edo Castle is a large castle that is located in the East.

Isn't that right? You who served as a butler at the Mayor's house,

Mr. Daito?

Although it seems that Miyako used to call you Mr. Dojo

with the "e" omitted in the beginning though.

I found out that you were the butler,

when you didn't sit but stood by the doorway.

You have a room but your chair is only in the kitchen.

The time when you suddenly opened the dish cabinet

when looking for the ashtray.

It was as if you knew there was no ashtray in this house, to begin with.

You're the one who prepared that tea cup

with the cigarette butts inside it beforehand too,

to make it look like the doings of multiple criminals, right?

You probably thought you'd get away for now somehow,

and was thinking of killing Mr. Kume who you goofed trying to kill later,

too bad you can't.

Because the rope you're holding now and the rope marks

around Miyako's neck are going to match completely.

But, there's still one thing I can't figure out.

I can understand that you found out about Mr. Kume after he got flustered

when he saw the picture of Miyako who he thought had died.

But how'd you figure that the captain was also one of them?

If you didn't predict that the captain

would make his rounds around this island,

this trick wouldn't have worked out.

How could I ever forget?

He was the only one that I witnessed four years back

at the time of the incident.

The very one who killed the one who was to be my wife my cherished loved one.

He is the hateful killer who killed her.

Which means that the maid, Ms. Matsumoto was...

Yes, I was engaged to her,

I asked the master for a leave to avenge her death.

I changed my outer appearance as well as my way of speech

speech in order to pursue the thieves.

But, I was shocked when I found out that Miyako was one of them.

Which means you didn't know?

No, because she looked so different.

Until she mumbled those few words.

I'm sorry, Chiyoni.

I felt like I understood for the first time just before her death,

about how she really felt.

That kidnapping incident was made up because after her mother died,

she wanted to test her step-father's love for her.

But, when Kaneshiro rejected to pay the ransom,

she decided to steal what Kaneshiro cherished,

and it was the folding screen.

Miyako was actually Kaneshiro's wife's child

from another marriage, after all.

Yes, now that I think back.

It could be that Mr. Kaneshiro knew

that Miyako was somehow involved in the incident.

Because when he gave me time off, this is what he said...

All this happened probably because of me.

So, hate me and forget about pursuing the incident, will you?

I think that this incident was just as the master said,

a box that shouldn't have been opened.

As if to speak on his behalf,

the golden folding screen was watching sadly over him.

Because the folding screen was suddenly exposed to air

after being sealed for so long and oxidized,

the paint began to run and fade,

resembling tears falling.

What?

The case has been solved?

Are you serious?

Yeah, while you were drinking and fell asleep feeling good.

Then what about my TV appearance? My pay?

How should I know, darn dude?

Then you make something happen!

Eat and run or anything you like.

Go on, do it!

Hey...

Oh, that's for me!

Detective Mouri is stretching over for his 12th bowl!

Renown detectives big eater contest.

Is this what you guys came to Okinawa to do?

Well, sort of...

Give me a break.
