Original subtitles

Friendship, love and mystery.

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

The princess and the queen, the two moms.

The key is in Pop's hands.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan.

Pops is asked to find the person

who is after the life of Mr. Mikio Fujieda

for a fee of 10 million yen.

He thinks this is an easy case

and holds a celebration party in advance, only to spend a lot of money.

He couldn't close the case, however,

and he is in debt of about 8 million yen.

He is shocked and takes to his bed.

Acting on behalf of pops,

Ran's mom goes to the client's place.

There, she happens to meet my mom.

And then, Mr. Mikio Fujieda is killed in a closed room.

"Two Princesses of a Kind (Part 2)"

Well, well. It's Eri.

And Yukiko, too.

What's the matter with you two?

I'm here for...

I'm here on behalf of my husband.

He got a request for finding a person living on the premises

that is after the life of Mr. Mikio Fujieda.

But how did he know

that the person is among the people on the premises?

These were placed under the pillow of Mr. Mikio Fujieda.

"Watch behind you! I'll send you to heaven."

So was this used bullet.

Who could have done a thing like that

except someone living in the house?

You could be right.

-The crime took place at about... -Hey.

-Wasn't it about 8 pm? -Yes.

It's when all of us were watching

the display of the surveillance camera.

I see.

Then suddenly, Mr. Fujieda stood up holding his hands up,

was shot and fell down to the floor.

We hurried to the room

and heard two gun shots from inside the room.

We broke the door, went inside the room,

and found this.

Inspector Megure!

We found the gun, sir.

Good!

The gun is a Colt Compact 45 automatic.

There were three cartridges beside the gun

and the number of cartridges coincides with the number of bullet wounds.

It seems that the culprit shot across this window

and hurried out of this place.

Then we have to consider the possibility of a culprit from outside.

But what is this?

This towel with a burn on it.

It is probably...

It was probably burnt when the culprit

wrapped the towel around the gun when firing,

and tried to hide the powder traces.

Or tried to muffle the gun shot but failed.

-Hey, ladies. -Officer Chiba, you go and find out

where and how the gun was obtained.

Yes.

Officer Takagi, you go and find out

if any suspicious person was around or seen.

Yes.

Hey, wait a minute.

And by the way...

Check the bullets in the body

against the bullet left under the pillow, please.

Now, Inspector, bring the lab people

and come with me to the living room.

We'll check the gun powder traces on all the people in the house,

and start questioning them.

Hey, Eri.

Come on, Inspector. Eri is trying her best.

-But... -For her, 10 million yen is at stake.

What?

Hey!

I wanna go to the toilet.

I need to...

Toilet!

Then, one by one, let's have each of you talk to the Inspector.

After Mikio was shot in the audio room,

for about 3 minutes until we found the dead body,

where were you all, and what were you all doing.

I went to my room to get the key

and ran to the audio room.

I called the police and an ambulance on the phone in my room

and I stayed in my room.

But you knew your husband was shot?

Still, there could be a man with a gun around!

Could be.

Besides, you know I was watching Mikio get shot and go down

on the display with the butler and the others?

If you must suspect someone, you can pick on Shigeru

because he went out of the monitoring room just before Mikio went down.

Did you leave?

I did.

I had to write the manuscript I was working on in my room.

But I stopped writing

and joined Eri and the others to go up to the audio room.

I heard the two gun shots in front of the room.

So I couldn't have possibly done it.

Did you hear any suspicious sound or something?

No. The sound of the classical music was so loud.

Excuse me, Inspector,

but do you mind if I sit down?

Of course not.

You can sit down, Mr. Ueki and everybody else.

I'd prefer to keep standing. It's easier on me.

Inspector Megure!

I caught a man loitering around the garden, sir.

-You did? -Hey! Come on up quick.

Oh, he is...

He is Mr. Doi, the gardener.

Gardener, is he?

He's been like this, sir.

He doesn't say anything, doesn't answer me.

Mr. Doi was at a place in the garden not very far from the audio room,

for at least 3 minutes after Mr. Fujieda was shot at 8 o'clock.

Mr. Doi was seen in the surveillance camera and on the display.

He was absorbed in gardening even after the incident

and just didn't come here.

Seeing is believing, they say.

Would you care to go

and take a look at the video of the surveillance camera?

I see.

He seems to be in the garden when he was shot.

But he disappeared right after it.

But the light is seen on the screen.

The light is flickering, and that means he is there.

But if there were cameras in all of the rooms,

we would be able to tell when, where, and who did what.

I wish we knew.

But these pictures tell you enough, don't they?

The chance of an outsider is breaking in is slight,

and the possibility that the crime was committed by an insider

is more likely.

How come?

There are so many cameras around,

but there is no picture of a suspicious person on any of them.

The crime was committed by a person

who knows precisely where the cameras are located, see?

I see.

So, we have four suspects to go.

When they commit the crime,

it seems that two of them are always together.

How about going after their motives?

Conan, you are very quiet today.

You usually get all excited over a case. What's come over you?

The two of them say so much

that there's not much left for me to say.

But this is a strange case.

The butler and Motoka were with us watching the display

when the first shot was fired.

But they have no alibi for the second and third shots.

Mr. Doi was not seen after the first shot except for the light.

Shigeru Fujieda has no alibi for the first shot,

but he was with us at the second shot.

This means, if the displayed image of the surveillance camera is a trick,

or if the second and third shots were part of a trick,

their alibis won't stand.

Two things worry me.

One is that the second shot

and the third shot were about 3 minutes apart,

and the other is that he inserted a bookmark into the book he was reading.

If he was being threatened with a gun pointed at him,

why did he do such a thing?

Who resented him?

Of the four people?

Yes.

Mr. Ueki, the butler, for sure.

He was ordered to clean the storage that was full of dust,

and he had a relapse of asthma.

But if I were Shigeru, I would've got angry.

I know the Master inherited this residence

but Shigeru has been living in this house since his childhood,

yet now he has to pay rent because he was told to pay.

The young mistress had no grudge on Master, I suppose,

but it's so obvious that she married for the inheritance.

I wouldn't be surprised if she is overjoyed about the master's death.

You could be right.

Mr. Doi, the gardener glared at the young Mistress the other day.

Of course, he would.

When she learned the master was going to rebuild this house,

she asked him to break down the garden

and turn it into a swimming pool.

What are you doing up there?

Excuse me, but the late Mistress cared much for the garden.

It has been most dear to her.

But...

That's enough. Leave right this minute.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me, but are you from Kouchi, Mr. Doi?

What?

I've been in Takajou town.

In Takajou town! What a coincidence.

I'm from Kami town.

Wow, from Kami!

When I was a small fry, I used to swim in the Kagami River.

You did, ma gal!

That river was the prettiest,

and that famous Ryoma Sakamoto

learned swimming in dat river, did ya know?

Is that Kouchi accent?

I wonder if Yukiko was born in Kouchi?

No. When she was an actress,

she played a role in Kouchi accent.

She learned the accent then.

She is a genius in playing and applying things like this.

That's what Shinichi used to tell me.

Is that so?

Good news?

Yes. He told me a very interesting thing.

He heard the gunshot several seconds

after he heard the glass crack.

What?

What does that mean?

Usually, the glass will crack at the same time as the gunshot?

I don't know.

The glass was cracked with a gun then the shot was fired?

But it bothers me, the sound of the cracked glass.

Naturally, it was before the first gunshot was heard, wasn't it?

He doesn't remember how many shots he heard.

He thought some naughty kids in the neighborhood

were making noise out of bamboo fireworks or something,

so he didn't care much about it.

I wonder it may have something to do with the hint Yusaku gave me.

Did you call your husband?

Yes, I did just a moment ago.

When I told him about the case,

he chuckled and told me.

He says, "Wrong road sign. Tell her that."

Tell her? Tell who?

Huh?

Of course, to you.

Oh, to me.

Should I be overjoyed?

Of course not.

I thought so.

Excuse me, Inspector,

but didn't you investigate enough already?

And besides, now you know it's impossible for us

to have committed the crime.

Inspector.

The neighbors say they have not seen any suspicious person.

I see.

And we don't know how the gun was obtained,

but the bullets used in the murder

were identical to the bullet that was used for making threats.

But there is one strange thing.

One of the bullets extracted out of the body

shows a streak on the surface of the bullet.

What does that mean?

Now I see.

-What? -Don't what me!

You look as if you alone know it all already.

Who cares because I do know it all.

Well, then, tell me all about it, Shinichi, dear.

Don't you call yourself the Night Baroness

and start a flashy action scene again, mom.

Don't worry. It's all right.

Tonight, I'll be cool and collected with no-frills action.

People!

It's past eleven o'clock already!

Will you do the rest of it tomorrow?

We are still investigating.

Investigating?

You have done all the investigating already and finished it!

I don't like to be deceived!

Yes, we have been deceived by the culprit.

It was made to look as if Mr. Mikio Fujieda was threatened

with a gun from outside the window and shot.

But the culprit couldn't deceive the eyes of the detective.

Can't deceive the private eyes of this Baroness of Night!

Hey. Where did she get those lights?

Are you saying that...

You found out who the culprit is?

I surely did.

But how did the culprit deceive you?

The surveillance camera?

We have been deceived a lot earlier than that.

The culprit has already deceived us into thinking wrong

by showing us the two memo sheets and the used bullet.

The culprit put up a deceiving road sign

to make us think he was going to shoot a gun.

But Mr. Mikio was actually shot with a gun.

Did you notice, Inspector Megure?

Mikio was reading a book just before he was shot,

and he placed a bookmark into the book.

Yes, I remember.

Usually, you put a bookmark between the pages

when you finish reading the page,

not when you are threatened with a gun pointed at you.

You are right.

What would you do, Inspector,

if you finished reading a book and wanted to take a rest?

I'd turn my head or rub my shoulders.

Or stretch out and...

That's right. He just stood up and stretched.

Don't be a fool.

Right after that, Mikio fell to the floor, didn't he?

You don't go down right after stretching.

It's not the stretching that did it. Standing up did it.

It's rare, but some people stand up quickly

and feel faint or fall down.

But how could he have fainted at such convenient timing?

There is a drug that does it.

The name of the chemical is isop... isopro... isope?

Isoprotelenol, it is.

It is used for inducing faintness.

It is given to patients who have a tendency to faint easily,

and it's used for inducing feeling faint.

They are trying to find out what causes fainting.

I see. That drug made him faint

and made us believe that he held at gun point then shot.

Is that right?

Yes. What I wanted to say is that

he was not yet shot at that time.

But the culprit thought that it was not sufficient to fool us,

so added a word to make sure to mislead us.

He said, "The master is holding his hands up."

What? Don't tell me...

He had us taken in good.

Yeah.

You did really well, didn't you?

Mr. Souhachi Ueki, the butler.

Mr. Ueki knew well

that Mr. Fujieda drinks coffee while he reads a book.

And he stands up and stretches after reading.

This chemical is good for asthma

when you take a moderate amount of it.

Well, he made an alibi for himself

and then pretended to go and get the key to the audio room,

but he actually went to the room from outside,

and shot three bullets into Mr. Fujieda who was passed out,

to murder him.

But you heard two shots, didn't you?

Yukiko asked Mr. Doi and learned so a while ago.

Several seconds after the sound of the glass cracking,

he heard the shots.

And there was the loud sound of classical music played.

You understand, don't you?

I see.

It's a silencer!

He put a silencer on when he fired the first shot

so only the sound of glass cracking was heard.

And the silencer left a streak on the surface of the bullet.

Then he used a towel to hide the traces of gun powder.

Anyway, go find the silencer.

You don't need to.

Because the butler must still have it.

Probably in one of his socks.

What?

Excuse me.

Inspector! I've found it, the silencer!

He hesitated to sit down, so it dawned on me.

Sitting down will make the hem of his pants go up

and it may show what he had concealed.

Hey. You have burn marks!

I can withstand the burn, sir.

It's nothing, if I can keep the garden for the late Mistress.

-The garden, you say? -Yes, sir.

The garden of the premises has been carefully maintained

since the madam was a little child.

I feel she is somewhere here with me.

I cannot forgive the master, who is a perfect stranger to the house,

to have everything done his own way.

Gosh!

So, it's you. You're the culprit.

All this time, I thought it was his brother, Shigeru.

Now, my share of inheritance has decreased.

I hired a detective to get something on him,

but I made a big mistake!

Listen.

If Mr. Mikio Fujieda had no parents, brothers or sisters,

you would've gotten the entire share of inheritance.

No share goes to the brothers of a former wife.

Really?

Why, I got it all wrong!

But this is only if Mr. Fujieda left no will behind.

Anyway, I must ask for the amount of 10 million yen

for finding the culprit.

What? How can you?

Mikio got killed already!

The contract says

nothing about protecting Mr. Fujieda's life, as you can see.

See? Your signature and seal are here.

Okay.

With Mikio's inheritance, 10 million yen is small money.

I might add that until the inheritance is settled and finalized,

all the assets in the name of Mr. Fujieda's will be frozen,

so please pay me out of your private account.

I don't believe it!

You'd better. If you refuse to pay,

I will execute it by law to attach your property.

You understand, I hope?

Well, so it goes.

Afterwards, Mikio Fujieda's will was publicized as follows.

It said, "No inheritance will go to

those who were not able to protect my life.

The entire estate shall be donated to the country."

This has been carried out to the letter.

"Mouri Detective Agency" -The next day.

Here you are, dear.

After deducting your debt,

it comes down to one million and 943 thousand yen.

Now, you can thank me.

Don't you smell something?

Do you keep a pet or something?

A client of mine came this morning with a dog, and it did it.

By the way, it's been a long time, Yukiko.

Yeah. There's something that I want to ask you, Kogoro.

Hey, Eri. Come on and ask him.

No. You're the one who wanted to ask.

They want to know which one you chose

for the Miss Teitan High School Contest.

You mean the one that took place 20 years ago.

It's probably Eri

because they were in love with each other.

Surely it's Yukiko.

She was unbelievably beautiful, then.

It must be Eri, if I remember right.

Dear.

I was very ignorant of those festivities at that time

so I took the word "Miss" Teitan to mean mistake

and wrote the name of the one who I thought was a klutz.

What?

Then, if you knew what it really meant,

which one would you have chosen?

Of course, it's Yukiko.

You don't have to ask me. She was utterly beautiful.

No! Eri was pretty, too, for a smart girl!

I'd like to tell you.

For the work Yukiko and I did for you this time,

we'll take 10 percent of the total, which is 1 million yen.

And for us, I have to get paid for the bills at the bars,

and be reimbursed for dad's advance allowance,

and the living expenses for this month and next month.

And laundering dad's pants.

Here is your change.

Hey.

It's only 4,382 yen in all.

Well, let's go out and have something delicious, Yuki.

Let's go, Eri.

Hey!

And which one won the contest?

It's marginal.

Together with Hanga.

Yeah, yeah.

A messy room!

This is bad, Conan! Summer vacation is almost over!

Second semester has already started.
