Episode 693: The Night Cherry Blossom Route on Sumida River (Part 2)

Scenario: The next day, Ran and Conan arrived at Nishizawa's apartment and found Nishizawa drowned to death in the bathroom. At the Sumida river, people were amazed that there's lot of money floating in the water.

When Ran was about go to near the dead body, Conan told her to wait and take a look. The water accumulated to the very top, yet there are no splashes, or droplets of water surrounding the tub. Nishizawa sank into the tub and it's probably been about 5-6 hours since he died. After Conan tells Ran to call the police, he goes and takes a closer look. He found an empty bottle of sleeping pills and more importantly, he found the flower petal in the middle of the water. The shape is similar to cherry blossom petal but the colors different. Suddenly, Sato and Takagi arrived so Sato told Takagi to contact the police headquarters. When Conan asked Sato why is she here, she answers a motorboat from Heikyū river that was registered was stolen, turned up Nishizawa's fingerprints. Later, Conan went into another room and found some books on the desk.

At the Mouri Detective Agency, Megure tells Kogoro that Nishizawa committed suicide. From the boat involved with the crime, they found his fingerprints. Then they also found the note on his computer. The estimated time of death was about 01:00. He drank lots of sleeping pills and then drowned. Without the doubt, then it's suicide. According to the suicide note, it says, "I was after money, but did not plan this. You, Kogoro Mouri, the one who said I stalked my true love. When it was taken to the police, my boss fired me. I was humiliated by the Great Detective. Of course I couldn't deal with that. Then there was the restraining order. I'm not going to deal with the ridicule anymore. So that means I take my life." Well, even though Megure can't officially confirm it. When Megure is about to leave the agency, Kogoro asks him that did the police found the missing money, but actually, they didn't find it yet. After Megure leaves, Kogoro starts laughing because since the money hasn't been found yet, the case hasn't been solved completely. He stands up and declares himself that he will solve the case.

Kogoro visits to a "New Image" engineer named Atsushi Tanaka and starts questioning him. Tanaka says that he doesn't know Nishizawa but Kogoro heard that he was good friends with him. Kogoro asks Tanaka about his alibi at 01:00 but Tanaka got confused that the case was supposed to be a suicide but Kogoro is not sure about it and he suspects Tanaka tries to crush Ishida's HR, but the answer will come out eventually. Tanaka doesn't doubt Ishida suspected something. He reveals that Ishida was blackmailing Nishizawa. When Tanaka was taking a walk, he heard Ishida and Nishizawa arguing. Nishizawa accuses Ishida that he doesn't treat the employees right. If Ishida is going to fire Nishizawa, Ishida better put out severance pay. He was going to expose his fraud. He doesn't want to but he will destroy Ishida's company. That's motive enough for Ishida. At 01:00 of Tanaka's alibi, he was talking on the phone with someone.

Next, Kogoro visits to Ishida, the "New Image" president, for asking his alibi at 01:00 and Ishida says that he was sleeping. He doesn't have much in the way of the proof, given that he's a bachelor. Before Kogoro takes his leave to Nishizawa's funeral, Ishida mentions that Tanaka doubts it was Nishizawa. He liked to gamble with Nishizawa so he carried a significant amount of debt. Ishida once came to consult him. He wanted too big of an advance, Ishida couldn't pay him that much.

Meanwhile, Conan looks around the area where some few spots have surveillance cameras on. Next he sees the Toyusu canal. The route where you can see Toyusu canal has no surveillance camera so the criminal took the area where he can't be seen and if someone stop the boat at the pier so if he left from Yokogawa, the briefcase could be retrieved. Conan notice an old man who's a fisherman so he went to him and asks if he could give him a ride. While Conan and the old man are on the boat, they're going to Sendaiborigawa. Conan just took a stop at the area where Nishizawa's apartment is but he doesn't see any yellow flowers. He went back to the old man and asks about any flowers similar to cherry blossom but yellow in color. The old man says he know about ukon sakura. You can find them later on when they bloom at the Somei-Yoshino trees.

At the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters, Megure receives a call from Kogoro saying that he knows who the real culprit is meaning that Nishizawa did not kill himself. He said he's going to reveal his deduction tonight at 17:00 in the president's office of "New Image" company. He requests Megure to call Tanaka to be there. Suddenly, Sato receives a call about in Sumida river, there are lots of ten thousand yen bills floating in the water.

At the Sumida river, people were amazed that there's lot of money floating in the water. Probably money from yesterday. Apparently, an empty briefcase was found.

Kogoro still has a terrible cold but Ran can't let him go to the president's office of "New Image" company. His temperature says 40 degrees celsius which is impossible for him to go to work. His deduction shows starts at 17:00. After Conan mentions about the money floating on the water in Sumida river, Kogoro turned blue and got shocked hearing it. Since Kogoro can't go, Conan has an idea. He can just make a shooting of Kogoro's deduction with the video camera so the others will watch it at the "New Image" company.
