Detective Conan Episode 803: Pitfall of Fire Precautions

Summary

Case Closed

Case Closed, known as Meitantei Conan (名探偵コナン?, lit. Great Detective Conan, officially translated as Detective Conan) in Japan, is a Japanese detective manga series written and illustrated by Gosho Aoyama. The series is serialized in Shogakukan's Weekly Shōnen Sunday since February 2, 1994, and has been collected in 73 tankōbon volumes as of September 2011. Due to legal considerations with the name Detective Conan, the English language release was renamed Case Closed.[1] The story follows the adventures of Jimmy Kudo, a prodigious young detective who was inadvertently transformed into a child after being poisoned.

Since its publication, Case Closed has spawned a substantial media franchise. The manga has been adapted into an ongoing animated television series by Yomiuri Telecasting Corporation and TMS Entertainment; the animated series has reached its twentieth season. The series has spawned three original video animation series, fifteen animated feature films, three live action dramas, one live action series, numerous video games, and many types of Case Closed-related merchandise. A two-hour television special titled Lupin the 3rd vs Detective Conan was aired on March 27, 2009, and featured a crossover with the series Lupin III.

Funimation Entertainment licensed the anime series for North American broadcast in 2003 under the name Case Closed with the characters given Americanized names. The anime premiered on Cartoon Network as part of their Adult Swim programming block and was discontinued due to low ratings. The first six films were released on Region 1 DVD in North America. Viz Media later licensed the manga series for English-language publication in North America and used Funimation's renamed title and cast. As of July 2011, 39 volumes have been published by Viz Media.

Compilation volumes of the manga have sold more than 120 million copies in Japan. In 2001, the manga was awarded 46th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category. The anime adaptation has been well received and ranked in the top twenty in Animage's polls between 1996 and 2001. In the Japanese TV anime ranking, Case Closed often ranked in the top six. Both manga and anime have had positive response from critics for its plot and cases.

Plot

Jimmy Kudo is a 17-year-old high school prodigy who frequently helps the police to solve cases. During an investigation, he is attacked by two criminals, codenamed Gin and Vodka, from the syndicate called the Black Organization. They force him to ingest an experimental poison, APTX 4869, which is supposed to kill him, and leave him to die. A rare side-effect of the poison, however, transforms Kudo's body into that of a child instead of killing him.

Adopting the pseudonym Conan Edogawa, Kudo hides his identity to investigate the Black Organization. He intends to pretend to be a child until he can find enough evidence to apprehend the syndicate, after which he can then safely find and administer a cure for his current condition. Edogawa enrolls at Teitan elementary school and forms the Junior Detective League with three other children in his class: Amy Yoshida, Mitch Tsuburaya, and George Kojima. To further cover up his activities, he moves in with his childhood friend Rachel Moore, whose father, Richard, works as a private investigator. Kudo continues to solve criminal cases as Conan, but usually poses as Richard Moore with the help of special gadgets invented by his neighbor and friend, Hiroshi Agasa.

Shiho Miyano, a member of the Black Organization and creator of APTX 4869, tries to leave the syndicate after her sister's murder, but is held captive by them. She attempts to commit suicide by ingesting APTX 4869; however, like Kudo, she is transformed into a child. She manages to escape and enrolls in Conan's school under the pseudonym, Anita Hailey. She joins the Junior Detective League and assists Conan in his investigations on the Black Organization. Conan's quest has led him to help the FBI to plant a CIA agent, Kir, inside the Black Organization as an undercover spy.

In 2007, Aoyama hinted he had the ending planned out but he has no intention of ending the series yet.

Episode 803: Pitfall of Fire Precautions

Scenario: Arsons have been occurring at different children's playgrounds. The Detective Boys, accompanied by firefighters, go on a fire safety patrol. A man is seen running past them toward the direction of a fire and Genta knows who he is. The Detective Boys try to find evidences to prove that the man is the arsonist.

One night, Conan, Haibara, and the Detective Boys are on fire safety patrol. Conan and Haibara discuss about the two arson cases that happened four and two days ago.This case happened 4 days ago. And two days, this incident happened.

Out of nowhere, everyone on patrol sees a man run toward the direction of a fire. They arrive at a park to see a jungle gym in flames and suspect that man is the arsonist. Genta tells everyone he knows that man.

The next day, the five children hide at an alley near a bento shop, waiting for that man, who, according to Genta, always buys an extra large seaweed lunch at that same shop, where he orders his eel lunches. Conan and Haibara are bothered by the fact that these three arson cases occurred at the same locations - at playgrounds - as the arson cases from last year. The ones from last year lasted for two weeks. The fourth arson case last year resulted in the death of a drunk office worker, who was sleeping while wrapped up in a construction tarp. After that, the cases stopped occurring until recently.

The man from yesterday arrives at the bento shop to order his usual seaweed lunch, and as he heads back home, the kids secretly follow him. They sit out on the streets, spying the man in his apartment for the whole day. At night, the man walks out of his house, and they quietly follow him again; unfortunately, they lost him because a train passed by and stopped them. Conan and Haibara decide to head the park where the fourth arson case from last year took place, since the next arson will most likely take place there, and the Detective Boys follow. At the park, they see a sheet draped over the slides on fire; meanwhile, an unknown person runs past the park.

The sheet is blown up into the air and is about to hit the Detective Boys when suddenly the man they spied on before tackles them, allowing them to barely avoid it. Because of this, the man lost sight of that person who just ran past the playground again, just like yesterday. For some reason, he seems to be paying attention to all of these recent arson cases. After some police investigation and questioning from Detective Takagi, everyone heads home.

The next day, the man heads out from his home, hoping to not see the kids again; unfortunately, they were waiting just outside. They all head to Sumire Park, the site of the first arson case, to investigate the chain of arson cases. This year, a side of a seesaw was burned. On a Beika Real Estate commercial sign, the kanji 戸 is circled in red.

And next the swing was burned on Sumire Park. Next, they head to Tsutsuji Park, the location of the second arson case. This year, an arched bridge was burned. On a sign post of a ramen restaurant, the character へ is circled in red as well.

Next is the monkey bars in Tsutsuji Park. Then, they arrive at Himawari Park, the place where the third arson case took place. Last year, a playground horse was burned. On a caution sign for pedestrians, the kanji 歩 is circled in red, too.

After some investigation in the park, the man takes them to an eel restaurant. As the Detective Boys enjoy their eel rice, the man tells them he will order some eel liver soup; however, Conan sees the order menu and a 10000 yen bill and realizes he lied and already left the restaurant. He runs outside, but the man is nowhere to be seen; the man baited the kids here so that he can split off with them. He heads to a factory that is closed today.

Meanwhile, Conan reads the news articles regarding the arson cases again and then immediately leads Haibara and the Detective Boys to the park where the fourth arson case took place. Conan and Haibara head to top of the apartment building near the park and see the character ニ circled in red on a sign labeled "Ninja Fortress". After seeing this, Conan figures out what is going on.

Conan saw the culprit holding a torch, and the building was full of oil. When he/she was supposed to throw the torch, Conan hit the torch and the abandoned bulding is safe.

When the culprit was supposed to throw the torch, what Conan did is he hit the torch and was safe. Is the culprit Suguru Kamaishi or Harue Yatabe? Who's the culprit of this arson case?
