Original subtitles

Friendship, love and mystery.

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

Ai gets messed up in the Porsche case.

Jodie, Araide and Vermouth appear.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

"Four Porsches (Part 2)"

The victim is Mr. Yukiya Banba, age 41.

The cause is death by suffocation.

From the traces left on his neck,

it seems he was choked by a string-like object.

"Yukiya Banba (41)" -Moreover, it seems...

he was choked with quite some strength.

And? Who is the one that found the corpse?

He's the one.

He seems to have gone golfing with the victim

and stopped by here on their way back.

Who are the two people standing behind you?

Oh, yes. They are also golf friends.

As well as Porsche friends.

Conan?

You're also Porsche friends, right?

How did you know?

I came to this department store with Dr. Agasa and got off the car.

Then I saw them park their cars too,

and I talked to them a bit.

Where's Dr. Agasa then?

I think he's still shopping upstairs.

And, Conan...

Will you give me more of the details back then?

It was about 1:00 in the afternoon.

4 people came on this white Porsche

and only 3 got off.

They were saying that they were going to shop here

until that man's booze wears off.

It seems as if

they were going to leave after a while on their own cars.

Which means that these 4 Porsches are yours?

Yes.

Inspector Megure.

A moment.

Did you find anything?

Yes.

Thank you.

It seems that the suspects have been

narrowed down to you three.

What?

As a result of the autopsy,

the estimated time of death is around 13:00.

Just about the time you all got here.

In other words,

it is extremely likely that one of you

strangled Mr. Banba when getting off the car.

Well, it may be a different story

if you left the car unlocked when you got off.

I locked the door for sure!

He was still alive when we got off.

What?

Mr. Hotei, Ms. Taiyama. Is it true?

Yeah. He was wasted and talking in his sleep.

Saying something like "Another OB".

Besides, we all got off at about the same time,

so nobody had time to strangle anybody.

Well, please tell us more in detail.

Please give me your names

and your relationship with Mr. Banba who had been killed,

the order in which you got off the car

and which car you own.

I'm the first one who got off.

My name is Yoshihito Kureko.

I got to know Mr. Banba at the Porsche new car exhibition.

My car is this Porsche 911 here.

When we go golfing, I park my car here

and all four of us get on this car

and head off together in one car,

just like that boy mentioned.

We got off in order to wait for Mr. Banba's booze to wear off

and decided to kill time at the department store.

But I realized that I had left my cell phone in the car

so I came back to get it, only to see how I found him.

Which means,

you're the only one who could've killed him

without being seen by anyone.

No! I came back to the car about an hour later though.

What is this?

This box in the dashboard compartment?

A music box.

The pin broke, so I was thinking of sending it out for repair.

But I had completely forgotten it was here.

It seems to be working okay.

I guess you can't strangle somebody using something like this though.

I'm the one who got off after him. My name's Eiji Hotei.

I used to car race with him on mountain roads.

That is when we were young.

I'm into antique-like cars recently,

and bought a Porsche 356A that was made 50 years ago.

Excuse me.

Huh? There's something in the backseat.

There.

Those are my fishing goods.

I'm kind of into fishing lately.

You've even got an electric reel.

If this is used, you could choke his neck automatically.

Cut out that talk!

The reel was in the bag, wasn't it?

I came back here after I received call from Mr. Kureko

and haven't even touched the car yet.

I'm Kaoru Taiyama.

It's true that I was the last one who got off,

but do you think that a woman like me

would be strong enough to strangle a man to death?

Besides, after golf, my gripping strength is weakened as is.

And?

What is your relationship with Mr. Banba?

Nothing special.

I just got into talking with him about Porsches on the golf course

and started making rounds with him.

This Boxter that I got right after it came out on the market

caught Mr. Banba's eyes.

You have something in the passenger's seat, too.

Oh, that. It's a gift for the son of my cousin.

It's a radio controlled Porsche.

I could never strangle someone's neck with it, could I?

And besides, after getting off the car to go shopping,

I came back here after I got a call from Mr. Kureko

saying that something awful had happened to Mr. Banba.

But I haven't touched a thing!

Hey! Why don't you look at that?

-A surveillance camera? -I see!

I'm pretty sure we can find out if someone is lying.

-Okay, to the security room! -Yes, sir.

Will all of you please come with me, too?

-What? -I guess we don't have a choice.

I told you to stay still!

But Ai doesn't look too good.

I figured we should take her to the doctor.

We can't leave her like this.

I guess we have no choice.

Just to be safe, maybe we should ask Officer Takagi

to secretly let us out with his police car.

Because they may be ambushing us outside.

Hi!

Who are they?

Conan, you were mixed up in this case after all.

Well... Yes.

But, how did you get in here?

Only those from the police

and those who are involved in the case are let in, right?

We told them that we came to pick you up, then they let us in.

-Right, Ran? -Right.

Huh?

Ai is here, too?

Come to think of it, you're some detective, aren't you?

We're going to the security room to look over the surveillance camera,

so won't you come along?

Come on, let's go.

Okay, Sonoko?

Hey! Jodie, you too.

Let's go!

Hey, Conan.

Reddish...

Brown hair.

What're you both doing?

Ms. Taiyama and Mr. Hotei?

After you got off the car,

both of you have gone back to your cars.

I just went back to get my wallet.

Mr. Kureko always paid the golfing charges ahead of time, so...

So after this, all three of you

went into the department store together to shop,

and until Mr. Kureko went back to get his cell phone an hour later,

nobody went near the car?

So, didn't I tell you that

it was impossible for us to commit the murder?

It's unreasonable to think

that they would call the police knowing that they'd be suspected.

Besides, all three of them got off the car at about the same time.

There wasn't anything strange about their moves.

I can't make it out.

How did the murderer strangle Mr. Banba

and how they retrieved the murder weapon?

Gosh! I've got to solve the case

and get Ai out of here...

as fast as I can.

Inspector Megure.

The pictures of the interior of the cars of all three suspects are ready.

Thank you. Please leave them there.

Yes, sir.

This is it!

Sonoko, did you figure it out?

Maybe all three of them strangled him

before getting off the car.

-Or... -Hey.

Why don't we go back to where the car is?

We could figure something out.

Inspector.

I guess so.

Like they say, check the scene of the crime out 100 times.

Let's go back.

She's the girl who was wearing the red hood

in the bus that was hi-jacked.

The girl who was lying down in the car.

Don't tell me that...

It can't be.

Shinichi said don't move,

but if I leave Ai as she is...

I've got no choice.

I'll call Dr. Araide once more although he may not be in.

"Araide Clinic" -Yes, this is Dr. Araide.

Dr. Araide?

I take it that you're Dr. Agasa, from your voice?

I'm in luck!

It seems that you weren't in when Conan called.

Conan did? That's strange.

I was home all day today.

What seems to be the matter?

I see.

So, you can't move from there because there's been a murder?

Yes, sort of.

Why don't we do this then?

I'm here at the scene of the crime.

Have you noticed anything?

No, not really.

Why don't you have Sonoko check everyone's car?

Who, me?

You're a great detective,

so you may come up with something.

First from Ms. Taiyama's car that's at the very edge.

Will you lend me your key?

Sure.

Here, Sonoko.

Okay.

I can tell that it's an expensive car,

but there seems to be nothing strange about it.

Don't tell me...

Don't tell me Sonoko...

You mean it's come?

Yes. I've figured it all out.

The way Mr. Banba was strangled to death

while sitting in the passenger's seat,

and who did it, too.

Really?

If at all possible,

I wish she'd explain why she's explaining

while pretending to be asleep like Mr. Mouri does.

But have you really figured out the case

when all you did was get into the car and sit down?

I touched it when I sat down.

Touched it?

You see that little groove on the top side of the window glass?

When my finger touched it, it dawned on me.

That Ms. Taiyama, the owner of this Porsche Boxter.

You are the killer.

Hey, hey. Are you serious?

Ms. Taiyama did?

Officer Takagi.

Please sit in the passenger's seat of the Porsche 911 where Mr. Banba's corpse is,

and play the role of the victim.

Okay.

Conan, proceed with what I told you earlier.

You mean this fishing line that you told me to go buy?

But can you really do something like that with this?

Never mind, just do as I told you to, okay?

Then, everything will become clear.

Okay.

First, hook the fish line around Officer Takagi's neck,

who is sitting down.

Then pull the string through behind the head rest.

Get off still holding the string and close the door.

Hold both ends of the string

and pull it through the Porsche 928 that is in between.

Go back to Ms. Taiyama's car

and hook it on to the groove on the window of the driver's seat side,

that was made beforehand, and then go back into the car, right?

But the marks left on Mr. Banba's neck

showed signs of him being strangled with great strength.

You probably want to say

that the string was pulled secretly from inside the car,

but I don't think it's possible with the strength of a woman.

Right. That's why Ms. Taiyama used...

The strength of the power window.

Ms. Taiyama probably wrapped

the string around the neck of Mr. Banba who was asleep,

like Conan just did.

Then she got off the car,

pretended to go get her wallet and got into this car.

She then opened the door

and tied the string pulling it tight,

then tied it onto the transmission lever or something.

All she had left to do was push the switch of the power window

and close the window.

The string would be pulled by the strength of the power window and...

This way, she can choke his neck

even if she's at a distance from him.

Hey, Sonoko!

And since this parking lot is dark to begin with,

it's hard to see the string.

If the key is stopped at the first level,

she can move the power window without having to turn on the engine,

so there would be no loud sound.

Okay, I have a question.

How did she retrieve the string?

That's easy,

if she uses this radio controlled car.

She leaves the string that is tied beforehand

to the axle of the rear tire

of the radio controlled car outside the box,

cuts the string that had finished strangling his neck,

then ties one end of the string to the string that is outside the box,

and left the radio controlled car running inside the box,

and left the car.

It's true that if left that way, the string would automatically rewind.

But if she left the car running,

I would have heard the sound of the motor running

when I checked this car.

Oh, don't you know?

The battery of a radio controlled car keeps only for about 10 minutes.

By the time you got here, it would've been stopped.

Why don't you try checking out the radio controlled car?

I'm sure you'll find the string wrapped around the axle.

If it's just to roll up the string,

it would be possible to do so using Mr. Hotei's electric reel, too.

But I knocked him off the suspect's list because...

Because of the power window.

Out of the three of us,

my Boxter's the only one with the power window, right?

I thought I did a pretty good job.

But I didn't think that such a cute detective

would see through my trick.

So, you're the one who killed him after all.

But, why?

Why?

I'm sure that he's thinking so in the world beyond, too.

He's probably wondering, "Why was I killed?"

I'm sure you've heard from him before

that he competed with a yellow Ferrari at a mountain path before?

Come to think of it, yeah, some time in the past.

But he said the driver of the Ferrari picked on him.

That's a lie.

He's the one who picked a fight.

I guess all he wanted to do was tease a couple.

But the one driving was my younger brother.

After a heated battle, our car went over the cliff.

I was saved 3 days later by a person who happened to pass by.

But my younger brother didn't make it.

I couldn't remember the number plate of the man.

But I remembered his face

and that his car was a red Porsche 928.

I remembered that he had a golf bag in his car.

So, I bought a Porsche

and searched around the golf courses, finally found him

and was waiting for a chance to take revenge.

Why didn't you report the incident to the police?

I had no mind of telling the police about it.

Because my younger brother was also at fault

for being provoked into competing.

And my purpose for meeting him was not revenge to start with.

What?

If that man had called the ambulance right away for us back then,

my brother would've been saved.

I wanted to know why he didn't call the ambulance.

If he said that he was afraid of getting caught

or if he said that he still regrets that day,

I was going to forgive him.

But he continued to play golf after that too,

just as if nothing had happened.

That's when I decided to take revenge.

Make sure that all you guys make speed rounds only

with your golfing and never with your cars.

Okay, the case has been solved.

I've got to contact Dr. Agasa right away

and get Ai out of here fast.

Quick, quick, hurry!

Ran, where's Jodie?

She went home

saying she had something urgent to attend to.

What?

Conan!

What?

Dr. Agasa and Ai are both gone!

Don't tell me...

No way!

Oh, I've been waiting for your call.

What do you mean you've been waiting?

I told you not to move and yet why'd you go back home?

You don't have to shout.

This is Dr. Araide's suggestion.

Dr. Araide?

Is he there?

Yeah. Ai is being examined now.

You said that he wasn't in,

but when I called him, he was at home.

I told him that we can't seem to move

from where we are since there was a crime,

he said, "The police know who you are, and moreover,

with a sick child, if you ask them to let you out,

I'm sure they'll let you out."

They gave us a lift in the police car and helped us get out.

But just when we got out of the department store,

she happened to pass by.

Hey. Don't tell me that she's...

Hi! I cut a lot of fruit.

Vitamin C is best for colds!

She just fell asleep.

Sorry.

Jodie.

She's the one who brought us here.

Thank God, she had parked her car in a different parking lot.

It seems that Ai has just come down with a cold,

so there's nothing to worry about.

Seven, eight, nine, ten...

Ready or not...

Are you ready?

Here I come.

I'm going to go look for you.

I see you.

I've found you.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Ai's older sister, Akemi Miyano"
