Original subtitles

In today's case, the suspect is a police officer's friend.

How far will the love of the two go

after overcoming the obstacle filled scene?

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Hearing that he would be dispatched to Tottori

to work on a joint investigation project,

Officer Takagi is flustered.

Despite the fact that they may have to be separated for three years,

Officer Sato remains the same as always.

While all this is going on,

we happen to witness the suspect of a homicide case.

And...

"Yui Shimura" -You're the one who stabbed Hirotoshi, aren't you?

What? Me? Commit murder?

"Akira Kato" -Just what are you talking about? Out of the blue like that.

What's going on? Cut out the noise.

What?

-What? -Officer Chiba?

This is interesting.

"Love Story at Police Headquarters 6 (Part 2)"

Hey, Chiba! Come here.

Oh, yes, sir.

What is it?

Chiba!

Hey! Chiba! Is it true?

What you said about being with that man

and watching TV with him during the time of the crime?

You're not lying, are you?

Chiba! I'm asking if you swear by this Cherry Blossom crest!

Yes, sir! I swear!

I see.

Sorry.

-Chiba. -Yes, sir.

Being a police officer is a crummy job.

Think...

Hurry, the continuation...

Next it's finally episode four!

Yaiba's archrival the Potato Baron appears!

"The Conspiracy of the Potato Baron!"

Come to think of it. If I remember correctly...

No doubt about it!

The killer is Mr. Kato after all!

He deceived Officer Chiba and used him to establish his alibi.

He twisted the passage of time with blood smeared hands.

I can't find a thing.

Neither can I find the gray parka nor the black knapsack

that the suspicious looking man had on him.

How is it over there?

Nothing here.

How about over there?

Nothing anywhere.

It doesn't seem to be around.

I guess not.

Not here, anyways.

I guess Mr. Kato who is freeloading here with you

is not a suspect after all.

Yeah.

Then, who on earth is it?

The man that looked like Mr. Kato

that the children saw near the crime scene.

He was probably another man who looked very much like him!

Because during the time of the crime,

Mr. Kato has an alibi that he was here watching "Morning Live Seven"

with Officer Chiba.

Okay, we'll leave for now!

We've got to send the children home too.

Anyway, that's enough for today.

Gosh.

Inspector Megure told me to learn something from this veteran officer.

But at this rate...

Hey, Officer Chiba.

Officer Chiba!

Oh, yes!

Will you go get Mr. Kato who's waiting in the police car?

We can't go home without telling him goodbye.

I'll go get him!

So, we've got to start all over again.

I hope it won't take too long.

Take too long?

Wait. If it takes long for this case to be solved...

Maybe I won't have to be dispatched to Tottori for the joint investigation

and stay here with Officer Sato.

You idiot! Just what's wrong with you?

I'm a police officer,

so I've got to solve the case as soon as possible.

Hey, this is no time to be absorbed in your thoughts.

Don't worry.

I'll make sure I get this case solved before leaving for Tottori.

Yes, sir.

Well, if it's going to take long,

just have someone else to take over the case.

It's as simple as that.

That's right.

Everything will be fine.

What?

Everything will be fine, Officer Takagi.

I don't think'll take that long.

I've been telling you, haven't I?

During the time of the crime from 7 am to 7:30 am,

I was watching TV together with Chiba in the living room!

Come...

Excuse me, Mr. Kato!

What was that program you were watching?

Like I said, "Morning Live Seven"!

Which one?

Which one but the one aired on Nichiuri TV from 7 am?

But...

See.

"Morning Live Seven" is also playing on cable TV

from 9 am in the morning too.

"Morning Live Seven"

True.

Which means...

even if it were to take an hour and a half by car from here.

He could've killed Mr. Nakamoto at a little after 7 am,

come back here, wake Officer Chiba up at 9 am

and watch "Morning Live Seven" playing on cable TV together,

it seems possible for him to establish a fake alibi.

Chiba you said that you both drank last night

and you fell asleep in the living room, right?

Yes.

Officer Sato.

If he made Chiba drink to make him groggy in the morning,

and if Chiba who was awakened in the morning still half asleep.

He probably wouldn't have realized it if it were the cable TV program.

Wait a minute!

I could've been half asleep

but you can't trick the video, can you?

The video I recorded this morning of "Morning Live Seven" cooking corner

had the time and everything recorded too, didn't it?

If it's the "Morning Live Seven" that played on cable TV

the time wouldn't be displayed!

It's aired two hours later, you know.

That's true too.

Besides, after watching Morning Live till 8 am,

we watched a six hours video.

And like I was saying he was with me all the time

while we watched the live baseball broadcast from 2 pm,

when Officer Chosuke and all of you came part way through the game.

The only time I wasn't with him was

when I went to take a bath for about 30 minutes.

It would've been impossible for him

to even make it to the crime scene that would've taken

more than an hour by car.

Well, I took a bath after watching the video halfway,

I think it was about 11 am

so I think it would be impossible for him to commit the crime.

But...

There's a lot you can do with 30 minutes.

You can make coffee,

Watch TV.

Dub videos.

Dubbing?

Right! Dubbing videos.

I see!

If he had set the timer to record "Morning Live Seven" before going out,

he could've dubbed it over the cable TV program

that Officer Chiba recorded!

Moreover, what he taped was "Yoko Okino's Four-minute Cooking"!

Since there are two decks so 30 minutes would be more than enough!

But if there's no time display,

I think I would have noticed when I recorded the program.

Oh, I wonder about that?

Those memo stickers that are stuck all over the TV.

If you're used to seeing those memos on the set all the time,

even if you can't see the time display on the upper left,

you would just figure

that's the reason why you can't see the time,

and it wouldn't even bother you, right?

You seem to have known that

the cooking corner was after the weather forecast

so you don't have to see the time to record it.

And, you also mentioned that the flash news about Hide

was displayed on the screen during "Morning Live Seven", right?

Yeah.

If the program that you were watching was really

the news variety program from 7 am,

I think they would have talked about that news during the program.

In other words, even if it's a live program if it's a recording,

new news coverage is impossible?

Chiba!

You said that the news on the video

wasn't mentioned in the program, right?

Yeah.

I think that sort of news was on display

when Chiba left to go to the restroom.

But, don't forget.

We were watching the Masked Yaiba video from 8 am for six hours!

If you include the time that Chiba was taking a bath,

it's six and a half hours!

If we were watching "Morning Live Seven"

on cable TV from 9 am to 10 am,

then we would've finished watching the video at 4 pm or 4:30 pm.

The live baseball broadcast was until 4 pm so it would've been finished,

and you all came here a little before 4 pm, right?

Now that he mentions it, that's true.

So, I wouldn't have had the time.

What time did you begin watching the Masked Yaiba video?

So, like I've been telling you! At 8 am in the morning!

Not you, but them!

A little before we began searching this room so...

About 4:10 pm.

Which means about two hours have passed since they started watching.

Right.

Hey, you guys.

What episode are you watching now?

Here goes! Secret technique Yaiba Thunder God Fist!

Hey! Tell me what episode you're watching!

The last scene of episode six!

This is the good part, you know?

Stop bugging us, Conan!

Episode six?

What is the meaning of this?

If the episodes are 30 minutes long,

three hours should've gone by.

-Tomorrow is another day! -Mitsuhiko!

-Go, our hero! -Hurry! The continuation!

-Masked Yaiba! -Yes, yes!

The next one is...

I see! The commercials!

It's not only the commercials...

They can't wait to watch the next episode

that they're skipping the opening theme song as well as the end,

preview of the next episode and the summary of the previous episode.

So, it only takes them a little more than 20 minutes to watch an episode.

Were you doing that too, Chiba?

Yeah. Probably.

Then, watching 12 episodes would be 240 minutes.

That's only four hours!

I see.

Between 9 am to 10 am,

if programs that were two hours delayed

followed by that video was shown to Chiba,

the discrepancy in time would be compensated,

and you'd make it for the live baseball broadcast at 2 pm.

Very smart, sonny.

Moreover, since Chiba took a bath part way,

his concept of time could've been thrown off a bit.

Even if he were to watch the baseball game from after it started,

he wouldn't be able to tell how much time passed,

so, time can be connected very conveniently!

But Chiba went to the restroom

and to the kitchen to get drinks too!

Didn't you look at the clock then?

Yeah. I didn't think there was anything odd going on though.

So, he must've rigged it, right?

Rigged?

The clock?

He rigged the clock two hours backwards before waking Officer Chiba up.

He moved the hands of the clock here in the living room and the kitchen.

While Officer Chiba was absorbed in watching the video,

Mr. Kato slowly moved the clock back to the original time, right?

I see.

The living room clock is opposite the TV,

and as for the clock in the kitchen,

if you close the door you can't see a thing,

so it'll be easy to move the hands of the clock!

But there are clocks in the bedroom and the front entrance too.

Officer Chiba fell asleep in this living room last night.

And when he took a bath, his change of clothes are here

so the clock in the bedroom was probably left untouched,

thinking that Officer Chiba wouldn't go there anyway.

Then, what about the clock at the front entrance?

He can't touch the clock at the front entrance!

When the courier comes at the specified time,

and the time on the clock is not right, it'll be odd!

I see.

I'm pretty sure that Mr. Kato made sure that

when somebody came to the door,

he would answer it in place of Officer Chiba.

Come to think of it, when we got here you...

Hey, kid! Where do you have such proof?

Why don't you ask Officer Chiba, then?

What?

Kato.

The clocks in this house were all set five minutes early.

So that I wouldn't over sleep.

I just went to check

but only the clock in the living room and the kitchen

had been returned to the original time by someone.

Kato! You're the only one who could've...

You gotta be kidding!

I'm called a killer just because your clocks were delayed!

If you suspect me, show me proof that I killed the guy!

I'm sure that it can be found on the way here.

It's been found!

Just now.

Between the scene of the crime and here,

at the bottom of the Teimuzu River,

the black knapsack was found with a weight tied on it.

Inside it were a blood smeared shirt and slacks

as well as a parka smeared with blood on the inside,

which he seems to have been wearing on top of shirt.

Moreover, here and there on the knapsack,

there seemed to be blackened red fingerprints

which probably got on there when he took off his shirt

that was splattered with the blood of the victim.

And, of course, you know who those fingerprints belong to, don't you?

Well, it seems that the car you rented last night

was also found at a nearby parking lot,

so we'll check it out later too.

That's a problem.

As for those red fingerprints,

I was going to wipe them off clean later,

that they're still all over the car.

So, it was you, after all!

You used me?

You deceived me to establish your alibi.

Yeah. I figured since you're a cop,

the police would believe your testimony.

Kato, how dare you!

Sorry. I couldn't think of any other way

to let out my anger of having my girl taken away.

I knew that my girl's feelings for me had faded

while I was abroad on my business trip

so I wasn't all that shocked

when I heard that she was getting married to Nakamoto.

But, I couldn't take it when I went to give him a piece of my mind

and I was shown the letters and postcards that I had sent.

He had the nerve to say, "What a push over",

while grinning as he threw them at me.

All the postcards and unopened letters

that I had written while I was abroad.

So, he probably kept them from her even

before she could read them.

That's what made me lose my temper.

I was so furious

that I didn't even notice all the clocks here

were set five minutes earlier.

The sneakers that you saw inside the shoe cabinet?

Yeah.

The seams of the shoe strings were damp

while all the other shoes were clean and dry.

Wouldn't you think it's strange?

If he washed it, he would've removed the shoe strings at least, right?

So, that's how you figured the killer was Mr. Kato!

That he hastily dried his shoes with a dryer

after he washed the mud from the rain off his shoes.

Right!

And after that I dispatched investigators to places

between here and the scene of the crime

where he may have thrown the black knapsack away.

I did it all after I confirmed that Chiba wasn't lying

to protect his friend.

I didn't want to think that way,

but if Chiba were an accomplice,

they would've thrown the stuff away somewhere farther.

What do you mean?

Then you suspected Officer Chiba too?

Yeah!

A police officer is a crummy job

where you have to suspect even the nicest people.

I'll bet Officer Chiba who is facing that man

in the interrogation room right now

is taking the blow right now.

See you.

I'll leave the rest up to you.

Yes, sir. We'll take the children home.

I get to sit in the front seat!

What again? That's not fair!

Genta! You should let us sit in the passenger's seat sometimes too!

Come... Don't fight and hurry inside!

Okay, it's stone-paper-scissors!

Conan, come here please!

Never mind him!

Right!

Police officer.

A police officer is a crummy job

where you have to suspect even the nicest people.

Officer Sato, aren't you going to doubt me?

I'm going to Tottori, you know?

I might be hit on by some cute co-worker.

If you really like me...

If you even have a tinge of feeling for me.

Hey! Come on, get in.

You could at least show a tinge of anxiety or something.

Officer Sato.

Who is it? Who's the one that played a prank like this?

-How terrible! -Gosh.

This is a challenge to the police!

Oh, no, that's what Officer Sato did herself.

What?

You mean she's a bit concerned?

No way.

You won't, right?

Cheat on me...

What? Of course not.

Even if a super cute mini skirt police woman

or a sexy actress comes to the station as one day chief of police?

You really won't?

Officer Sato.

I'll go over there and become a fine police officer!

So...

So, before I go...

Please...

Engage...

Where are you going?

What?

Inspector Megure.

Sergeant Matsumoto.

What?

What?

Officer Chosuke's going to Tottori?

Not me?

You idiot!

We can't dispatch a greenhorn like you to another prefecture!

He's going as a representative of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police after all.

But Inspector, didn't you called me at home this morning?

Sorry! His name is Chosuke Takagi!

Since you both have the same last name, I made a mistake.

Officer Chosuke's last name is Takagi?

Gosh... That Yumi!

Oh, no? I wonder if somebody's talking about me?

Take care of the children, okay?

Be careful taking them home!

Yes, sir.

And?

Do what with you?

Oh, well, you see.

Please be...

Right!

Before heading home, let's go to Karaoke.

Oh, sounds good!

Karaoke?

Aye!

Let's! Let's!

-"Masked Yaiba" -"Masked Yaiba"

Would you like something to drink?

What a day.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Chandelier"

The next episode has to do with height.

In our case, it's more a problem of discrepancy of weight than height.
