The rhythm of the wind sharpens the skill of deduction.

Alibis and tricks are unraveled.

Sonoko's world in Karuizawa.

A troublesome case as expected.

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! Ran!

Hurry up.

We're running late!

Okay, I'll be right there!

Geez...

Come on, Mr. Mouri.

It's nothing to get heated up over.

Shut up!

Why do I, Kogoro Mouri,

have to serve as a driver for two sassy chicks?

Moreover, you're from the Suzuki Financial Group,

don't you even have your own chauffeur?

No way! I don't want a chauffeur driving me around on vacation.

I hate feeling like I'm being watched!

Is that so...

Yes, that's how it is.

Well, there's one kid who's got a cold,

so be careful you don't catch it.

Conan has a cold?

Thank you for waiting!

I took time trying to get Conan ready.

Are you going to be all right, Conan?

You got a cold, don't you?

Yes, I'm fine, just fine.

I just got the sniffles!

Okay, so now that we're all set!

Off we go to Karuizawa!

Yes, ma'am.

"The Suspicious Spicy Curry (Part 1)"

Are you okay, Conan?

Yes, I'm fine.

If you start feeling bad,

tell me right away, okay?

Okay!

Gosh, if you have a cold,

why didn't you just stay home?

The owner of Poirot Cafe

offered to watch you one whole day today.

But I want to see Sonoko's villa in Karuizawa too!

Geez.

And besides, knowing Sonoko for what she is,

she'll probably think up some bad ideas like always.

Maybe we'll find a really good mate!

What? We're going boy-hunting playing tennis?

That's right!

Just about this time, there are many university students

at the tennis courts near the villa.

Gosh. If you do something like that,

Kyogoku's going to get mad at you!

What do you mean by that?

Of course, he's the only guy for me.

You're the one who's going to get someone today!

What?

You'll wear your tennis wear to show off your great body

to the university students.

You'll take a snapshot with him

and send it to him as a mail attachment!

You'll do all this to get Kudo, that boyfriend of yours, jealous!

How about it?

I don't think he'll get jealous.

Just as I thought...

Besides, the only thing I have is a Teitan High School jersey uniform.

I don't have tennis wear.

Don't you worry!

I bought tennis wear for you and brought it along.

Geez...

Look at this!

It's super mini and cute too!

Short!

Hey! I could never wear something like that!

I didn't bring my safety pants with me either!

I see...

It can't be helped then.

I guess you'll just have to wear a regular panties then, Ran.

Regular panties?

Darn it! I'd love to see it.

But I don't want others to see it.

Hey. I don't know what you two are blabbering about

but if my daughter is going to be humiliated

just for that detective brat,

I'm heading back home.

You can if you want too but...

There are going to be a lot of voluptuous girls there too.

What?

University girls!

The weather was so nice in the morning, but now...

My voluptuous university girls...

We can't play tennis in this weather.

I don't know if I should be happy or sad about this.

Oh, well...

I thought I'll get to see Ran's panty glimpse with tennis shorts

that I haven't seen in a while today.

Too bad!

Well, I guess I should be glad.

Somebody's on the tennis court.

Maybe they're my voluptuous girls...

Darn it. It's a guy.

May I help you with something?

What?

A handsome guy.

Oh, no...

"Hiroto Akashi (32)" -I was just recalling memories

when I first met my wife here.

Geez. He's already taken...

If all of you came to play tennis,

would you like me to coach you on how to play better?

I'm a tennis instructor.

My house is near here too,

so if you'd like...

Thank you for your offer,

but I don't think so...

I'm sorry.

I see.

That's too bad.

So long.

So we couldn't fish any men after all.

Okay, let's go...

fish instead then!

Hey... What's with this turn of events?

Just watch!

I'll catch us some delicious fish for dinner!

The Chef and my older sister are already preparing dinner

and waiting for us there.

It seems like the river water is increasing.

Geez... It took my float and all again.

That's because you don't tie it well enough!

Fish lines are slippery

so unless you tie them like this...

Hey, your fishing line is being pulled, Mr. Mouri!

What?

Hey, this is a big one!

My rental car?

-No way! -It's been carried into the river!

Didn't I tell you that

you parked the car too close to the edge of the river.

Why you...

Dad!

Darn it!

I'm not letting the river take the car!

You can't do anything about it already, Dad!

Hey, are you okay?

I'm fine, although my right wrist hurts a bit.

I wonder if you sprained it.

You probably landed on it when you fell into the river.

Well, it's way better than being stranded in the water.

This is no time for jokes!

Yes, ma'am.

But, what do we do now?

All our things have drifted away with the car.

Our cell phones aren't working because we're out of range.

And it's gotten dark after all this walking.

On top of that,

don't you two think that maybe we're lost?

-What? -What?

Hey, you mean you were walking around not knowing where you were?

Well, I was just kind of trusting my intuition.

Geez, what now?

There's light.

What?

See, over there.

You mean there are people living out in the mountains like this?

I'm sure it's a mountain witch!

Let's have her put us up for a while then.

-What? -What?

We got to get some dry clothes for this brat, don't we?

Excuse me.

I'm sorry to be intruding on you at this hour,

but is anybody home?

He's coming out!

You guys are the ones who've come out.

"Iwao Akashi (65), Hiroto's Father"

So, you're solicitors of some kind again?

I won't be deceived even if you bring kids along with you!

No, we're...

Go home! Go home!

This is no place for swindlers like you to come!

Who is it, father?

You people are...

What a laugh!

You fell into the river trying to fish your car

that drifted into the river.

It's no laughing matter.

Sorry...

But he'll be fine!

With a little compress and by fixing his wrist in place,

if it's just a sprain, he'll recover in no time.

Turn this way and let me look into your mouth.

Your throat is red and your voice is hoarse,

so try not to use your voice too much.

You may come down with acute laryngitis.

Okay.

It's as if you're a doctor...

Yeah, I learned a lot when I was coaching tennis players

to prepare them for competitions.

How do the clothes of when I was a child fit you?

They fit like a glove!

That's great then.

I smell curry?

Yes. It's left-over from last night, though.

If you don't mind, would you like some?

Can I?

This is good!

It's as good as the kind you eat at a restaurant!

Really! It's delicious!

Since you have a sore throat,

you eat eggs over rice, okay, Conan?

Okay...

I like the spiciness of this curry!

Your wife must be a good cook!

Oh, well...

I'm the one who made this.

My wife passed away three years ago today.

I see...

That's why you were at the tennis court recalling memories of her.

Well, when I was trainer, I also made meals for the players

while taking their body condition into consideration too.

I was also better at cooking than my wife.

I'm going to take curry to father who is upstairs,

so please help yourself to seconds if you wish.

Oh, okay.

Dad, I brought you your meal.

Yeah.

Mr. Hiroto is sure taking his time.

It's already been 40 minutes since then.

This is really getting on my nerves.

What is?

This long cable hanging from the light above!

It's getting in the way of me trying to eat.

Stop complaining.

You already had two servings.

That cable is for dad.

He wanted an electric cable that he could reach because he's hunched over.

Oh, I see...

You sure took a long time,

when all you did was go to give him his curry.

Yeah.

Dad started saying strange things

so we got to talking with each other.

He said he's not eating because he wants to die out of the blue.

-What? -Wants to die?

It seems that he thinks that he is being disliked by God

because he's lost his wife as well as his daughter-in-law.

Well, he seems to be okay now

since he's started eating curry, which is also his favorite dish.

So please don't worry about it.

What? The road is blocked because of a landslide

and you can't come to pick us up today?

Are you serious?

You can stay over here then.

We've got a lot of mattresses here too.

I'm sorry to trouble you, but thank you very much.

Oh, right.

Will you go get father's dish for me?

Yes, sure!

But he's very jittery as well as a slow eater.

If the room light is on, it means he's still eating,

so come back without making a sound, okay?

Okay.

The light of the room is...

It's still on.

Quiet...

He's crying?

No, not like that.

Forehand goes like this.

Okay.

I'm sure he's already finished eating by now.

I'll go back up to get his dishes again.

Thank you.

I'll go too.

Quietly...

Okay, the lights are out.

What? He's not in bed.

Ran?

He's bleeding from his mouth?

Ran! What's the matter?

That is...

Father...

No way.

Hey, what's going on?

What...

He's still warm,

but his toes are starting to stiffen.

He's estimated to have been dead for about 30 minutes.

Excuse me, Mr. Hiroto.

Will you please call the police?

Sure.

I guess the officers of the Gunma prefecture will be coming.

Hey. If it's Gunma Prefecture...

No way.

"Gunma Prefecture"

Summoned and here I am!

If it's for you, Mr. Mouri,

I'll go through fire and water.

The roads may be blocked because of the rain,

but I've come as fast as possible because you have called me!

I wonder if the Gunma police station has nobody else to dispatch?

And? What kind of murder case is it this time?

What's the murder weapon? Any evidence?

You're going to do it, right? The Sleeping Kogoro deduction show!

Stop smiling all over the place at a place like this.

For God's sake, talk about lacking prudence.

Besides, we're not even sure if this is a homicide either yet.

There's the dead body.

Don't tell me that this is...

The one who passed away is the head of this house, Mr. Iwao Akashi.

The one who found him is

my daughter, Ran, who went to clear his dish.

When she found him,

the light of this room on the second floor was turned off.

But when she checked an hour and a half earlier the light was on,

so she thought he was still eating his curry

and didn't enter the room.

I checked right away after the incident

but the victim seems to have been dead for about 30 minutes.

There were four of us in the house then

but all of us were in the living room on the first floor

from two hours before the incident, so we all have an alibi.

Well, the only one who wasn't in the living room all the time was me

because I was taking a bath.

Which means that you're the only one

who could've committed the murder, Mr. Mouri!

I came to this house for the first time today!

I don't even know where the rope is,

so how could I have done it?

Oh, is that so?

It's a bit of a concern

that the victim is bleeding from his mouth

but as you can obviously see...

What?

Why is it of any concern?

I thought that people who die like this

always bleed from their mouths?

Yes...

I've seen scenes like that in movies and dramas.

That's not true.

The doctor once told me that

when something is wrapped around your throat,

your face gets swollen because the blood circulation is stopped,

and unless you have a wound in your mouth or something,

you don't bleed from the mouth!

So I think in the movies or dramas,

they go out of their way to do so

to make it visually obvious that the person is dead.

No, don't talk.

You'll strain your throat because of your cold.

But, if it's just as the boy just said,

I wonder why he's bleeding from his mouth.

I think it's because he was going to the dentist

to get his teeth treated.

He told me that he was going to the dentist

because his tooth was hurting.

May I ask who you are?

I'm Iwao Akashi's son, Hiroto.

Although I was adopted by him when I was a child.

His right molar's been pulled out.

It seems that after he died,

it bled from here

and blood came out when he drooled.

Mr. Hiroto, do you know when and which dentist that your father went to?

Well...

he left to go about two or three days ago.

Who cares about it at this point?

We already know that this is suicide.

What?

He probably used this ladder here.

He got on here and pulled the rope through the thick beam there.

No doubt this is suicide.

According to what Mr. Hiroto told us,

he said that his father was saying he wanted to die.

No way...

What am I going to do?

I told everybody back at the station

that I would video tape Sleeping Kogoro's deduction.

Gosh.

What am I going to tell everybody when I get back to the station?

Well, all is well.

Now that it's suicide, you don't have to

go through the trouble of investigating any further.

Well, that's true, but...

Hey, don't think it's strange?

This old man is bent over

and only about 30cm taller than me and yet...

See! The electric cable for the light here

is made to fit the height of the old man and yet...

I can't reach it even if I stretch my arm out.

Now that you mentioned it.

Which means that this is not suicide but...

Well,

some time ago when father got up late at night,

the electric cable got in his eyes

and he didn't like it all.

So only the electric cable in my father's room is short.

I see...

So, it is suicide after all.

Yes...

We'll be waiting in the living room downstairs then,

so if you have any questions just holler.

I'm sorry.

For gotten all of you to be involved

in something like this on your vacation.

It's fine.

Do you go fishing too?

Because...

See. Fishing for Beginners.

That's a book my wife bought.

The one who passed away from an illness three years ago?

Yes.

But, I've never seen her gone fishing,

so maybe she was planning to do so after she recovered.

Something's strange.

There's something strange about him.

He let's Ran go all the way upstairs to get the dish,

the length of the electric cable of that room

and the thing about his father's teeth being treated are all fishy.

If he knew that his father had his teeth treated

two or three days ago,

why would he make something spicy like curry?

If he was making food for the players

when he was a trainer

because he was concerned about their health,

he should know of things like this.

As for that curry,

the amount that he made is way too much for just two of them.

He couldn't have known beforehand

that we would be coming here.

And besides...

There must be something

with the way the electric cable is tied.

There is definitely something behind this case.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Electric cable"

I'll try and see something in the curry!

Clean cut potatoes from the garden but it doesn't make sense.

Out of nothing, he talks with a lot of spice.
