Friendship, love and mystery.

We stick it out because we believe promises will be kept.

A strange case at an ordinary train station.

There's only a marginal difference between goodwill and evil.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Ghads.

You keep drinking so much juice,

that's why you have to keep going to the restroom.

But, it was good, wasn't it, Pops?

It would've been nice if Ran could've come with us, too.

It can't be helped, can it?

She had club practice and suddenly ended up not being able to come.

By the way, what do you say?

That we go have some ramen before going home.

What? You're going to eat again?

There's something about French food that gives me stiff shoulders.

I don't feel like I've satisfied my appetite.

Come on, let's go drop by at a ramen shop.

Next stop is West Sumita Station.

Transfer here for the Saika Express.

"The Truth Behind the Death Fall"

The train will come in. Please stand behind the white line.

-So, for ramen! -West Sumita Station.

Let's go, Conan! I think I want salt flavored ramen.

What flavor do you want?

Hey, Pop's really set on going?

You bastard!

Talk about trouble, those guys.

Cut it out, cut it out! Stop fighting!

I'm telling you, cut it out! Are you guys deaf or what?

Inspector Goto, we've been waiting for you.

Is anything wrong?

Mouri?

You're Mr. Mouri, that renowned detective!

Really?

Yes.

I am Goto of West Sumita Police Station.

Well, I've heard a lot about you.

But, I didn't think I'd get to see you here.

I'm really honored.

He coincidentally witnessed

what may be the cause of this incident.

You did, Mr. Mouri?

Yes. But well...

I didn't think that something like this was going to happen.

Well, it's really a great help that you're here, Mr. Mouri.

We're counting on you.

I hope I can be of help.

I guess you can leave things to me since I'm here anyway.

Hey, hey.

Have you identified the victim?

Yes, he is Keisuke Furuta, age 42.

He is an office worker who lives nearby.

He seems to always come home on this train,

and it seems that he was on his way back home today, too.

The cause of his death is due to a fractured skull

from a violent blow to his head.

He got into a fight with this person here,

Mr. Hideki Sugimoto, age 27.

He works at a company in the city of Tokyo.

I am Goto from the West Sumita Police Station.

Will you please explain what just happened?

It's kind of noisy here.

You may use the break room for station employees if you like.

Mr. Noriwaki.

Yes, sir. This way, please.

That would be a great help.

What is this wound he has here?

I went to an after-hours business contact meeting tonight,

and I was on my way back home.

I suddenly had to go to the restroom

and put my knapsack on the net shelf,

then headed for the restroom.

My stomach was feeling queasy

so I stayed inside for some time and came out.

My knapsack was gone.

And?

Then, I happened to look out at the platform

and saw him with my knapsack.

Hold it!

What do you think you're doing? That's my knapsack!

Just what do you think you're doing?

What's with you?

He wouldn't give my knapsack back to me.

So you got into a fight?

Yes.

And when I tried to take my knapsack back...

The strap cut off, and...

Unluckily the under construction fence wasn't there.

Which means you have never meet Mr. Furuta before?

No, I haven't.

What do you think, Mr. Mouri?

I feel sorry for him.

But Mr. Furuta wouldn't have gone through what he did

if he didn't take Mr. Sugimoto's knapsack in the first place.

I wonder

if Mr. Furuta was really trying to steal Mr. Sugimoto's bag?

What do you mean?

Maybe he thought that somebody had forgotten it?

Forgotten?

Yes.

He has delivered forgotten goods to us

several times in the past, too.

Among all of us, we thought that he was a nice person,

a rare breed, not too easily found in recent years.

He doesn't seem like the type who would steal something

that someone else had forgotten.

Really?

Yes.

Mr. Mouri.

If it's really as you say,

he may have confirmed the owner of the bag

before he got off the train.

Go and question the passengers on the double.

Yes, sir.

Inspector.

Please calm down, Mr. Sugimoto.

We have to wait for testimony from witnesses.

Yes, sir.

It's just as the station employee had said.

Mr. Furuta seems to have confirmed whether the owner was around

before getting off the train.

Really?

Yes. There was a passenger who remembered you, Mr. Sugimoto,

when you stood to go to the restroom,

and also saw that Mr. Furuta came on the train after you.

In other words, Mr. Sugimoto went to the restroom

leaving his knapsack on the net shelf.

Then Mr. Furuta who boarded the train later,

took the knapsack to be a forgotten item,

took it and got off the train.

Mr. Sugimoto who had gone to the restroom

thought that his knapsack was being stolen,

found Mr. Furuta among the passengers

who had gotten off the train and tried to get it back.

Mr. Furuta thought that he confirmed the owner,

so when he was told to "Give the knapsack back",

he couldn't believe it off the bat.

Mr. Furuta was also probably a very righteous man.

He probably got into a fight

trying to keep the knapsack from being taken away.

I guess this is a tragedy that was born from a misunderstanding.

Oh, no.

Mr. Sugimoto, you're to blame too, you know?

You didn't have to jump on him so aggressively as you did, too.

I lost my temper.

He goes out of his way to deliver a forgotten item

and dies, poor guy.

You can have this back.

It's gone.

What seems to be the matter?

The receipt is gone.

Receipt?

The receipt of the store I went to with my client.

I had it in here with the change.

Both are gone.

Maybe you put it in your pocket or something?

No, I'm positive I put it in the wallet.

Give me a break.

Maybe it fell on the platform

when you were struggling with each other.

Officer Saito.

I'll go check.

How was it?

Well, there was nothing of that sort on the platform.

But inspector...

I brought Mr. Furuta's belongings.

Japanese Restaurant Sasayama?

Inspector, could you show me that?

Go ahead.

Excuse me.

Just as I thought.

This is the receipt I was looking for.

See. Mr. Hideki Sugimoto.

The price was for the food was 25,000 yen.

But, why was it in Mr. Furuta's pocket?

I can't figure it out.

The thing is...

It was just once in the past.

But, there was a time that money was taken

from the forgotten item that Mr. Furuta had turned in.

What?

Back then, Mr. Furuta was suspected, too.

But, he was deemed innocent after we decided

that the thief wouldn't go out of his way to turn in a stolen item.

I see. So that's the story.

Mr. Furuta probably had a habit of stealing money

from the forgotten items he turned in.

A habitual thief?

That's why he couldn't return the knapsack.

Because if he did, the fact that he stole the money

would be revealed on the spot.

Is that so?

I can't believe Mr. Furuta would ever do something like that.

It's very difficult to believe.

Mr. Sugimoto!

Yes.

Just to be safe, will you check to see

if anything else had been stolen?

Yes, sir.

Everything else is here.

I see.

Please fill in this form then.

Yes.

Could you please lend me a ball pen?

Excuse me for not noticing it.

Here you are.

Thank you.

You bastard!

It's just as I thought.

I see.

I figured out the real truth hidden behind this accident.

Ghads, what kind of important talk could there be?

And where'd Conan go off to after calling me out like this?

Pops, you can leave the rest to me.

Okay, this will be fine.

Inspector Goto.

What is it?

Mr. Mouri wants all of us to come to the platform.

To the platform?

What on earth is it, Mr. Mouri?

That pose is...

The rumored "Sleeping Kogoro"?

But inspector...

Mr. Mouri, this case was solved as being an accident

that happened from a man trying to get back his knapsack.

Inspector Goto, that's not the story, though.

What?

Just what do you mean?

I'll explain that in a minute.

First of all, will all of you

try to recall Mr. Sugimoto's testimony?

It's true that Mr. Sugimoto returned after going to the restroom

and realized that his knapsack was gone.

He sees Mr. Furuta on the platform and rushes off the train.

That's right, isn't it?

Yes, right.

But we saw Mr. Sugimoto

came dashing out from near the vending machine, instead.

And is there anything strange about it?

Don't you think it's funny?

If Mr. Sugimoto jumped off the train from the front,

why would he be in a place like that?

He would've run there from a different direction.

I see.

Come to think of it, yes.

It's unnatural that he was by the vending machine over there.

But, why did Mr. Sugimoto do that?

He was waiting

for Mr. Furuta to take the money out.

What?

Why?

You're only running wild on imagination.

Mr. Sugimoto probably knew

that Mr. Furuta would take money out of the wallet

pretending to turn the knapsack in.

That's why he left the receipt

inside his wallet deliberately with the money.

Because if the receipt is found,

and the fact that Mr. Furuta stole the money is revealed,

Mr. Sugimoto aggressively trying to get his knapsack back

would be justified.

That's not true!

Then?

Yes, Mr. Sugimoto deliberately put the net shelf

and went to the restroom

to make Mr. Furuta steal the money.

There were other passengers on the train.

Why did Mr. Furuta think that the knapsack was a forgotten item?

The cell phone.

The cell phone?

Didn't you realize

that there was a cell phone inside the knapsack?

Probably a cell phone with a history of incoming calls.

Mr. Sugimoto, who went to the restroom

just before arriving at West Sumita Station,

with his other cell phone

and called the cell phone in the knapsack.

The phone rang, but no one answered it.

That's why he thought that the knapsack was a forgotten item.

I see.

Just as would be expected of the Sleeping Kogoro.

Mr. Sugimoto quietly watched

while Mr. Furuta hid behind materials of the construction site

and took out the money.

He grabbed Mr. Furuta and dragged him

and pushed him into the keep-out area.

Then, he pushed him over with all his might.

Of course,

the rope that held the fence of the keep-out area in place

was cut beforehand.

Then all he had to do next

was pull the knapsack from Mr. Furuta

who was down on the ground.

If Mr. Furuta fought back to keep the knapsack from being taken away,

the strap which had been cut in advance would be slit

and Mr. Furuta who loses balance would fall off

the overpass platform to the ground below.

The shoulder strap was cut beforehand?

I'm sorry but I would have to check it.

Inspector!

Yes, it was no accident.

It was a planned murder under the pretext of an accident.

That's absurd!

That's nothing more than a far fetched story.

Listen, he tried with all his might

and resisted giving me back the knapsack.

How could I have knocked him down, then pushed him over?

Things don't work out that well.

As a matter of fact it does.

If you use the ballpoint pen

that you have stuck to the inner pocket of your suit.

Ballpoint pen?

You cornered him to behind the materials

and poked Mr. Furuta with all your might with that ball pen.

While Mr. Furuta flinched from the pain,

you pushed him.

The mark left by the ball pen was left

plain and clear on the back of his hand.

How about it, Mr. Sugimoto?

Mr. Sugimoto.

I couldn't forgive him!

He took the life of my girl!

6 months ago.

He rammed full speed into my girlfriend

who was crossing the pedestrian crossing.

We were going to get married soon.

There were no witnesses

and Furuta's version insisting

that the pedestrian ran into the street went through,

and he wasn't even prosecuted.

That's much too cruel.

Ruthless.

So, you decided to kill Mr. Furuta

under the pretext of an accident.

I just couldn't...

I just couldn't make myself forgive him.

"Mouri Detective Agency"

Okay, it's ready.

I tell you, Dad.

Just because the ramen shops were closed

you don't have to go out of the way to cup ramen, do you?

Don't you agree, Conan?

Who cares? What's the big deal?

This is just the thing for me after all.

It's so good.

Maybe I'll have another serving.

You're going to get fat.

Well, this indeed matches Pops

more than French cuisine for sure.
