Episode 1044: The Deadly Pork Soup Signal

 

 

Scenario: Conan and Kogoro are passing by an apartment building when they see a police car parked there. In the apartment, a woman who lived alone was found dead. Three fingerprints were found at the scene. The first was a man she was dating. The second belonged to the owner of the store where she worked. The other was not registered. Since there were no signs of prying at the front door or windows, the police began investigating the crime as being committed by a known acquaintance.

 

Kogoro and Conan are walking around, when they see some police cars in front of a apartment. They decide to help the investigation.

 

Conan, Kogoro, Takagi, and Chiba later go to Takashi Hara's apartment, who is Lisa's boyfriend. Hara says that Satoshi Komaki, the owner of the bar where Lisa worked, might be responsible for the murder, because Lisa always complained about Satoshi hitting on her.

 

Later, they go to see Satoshi, who revealed that he has a private relationship with Lisa. However, he refuse to tell his alibi, instead he ask the police if they should investigate the murder weapon, fingerprints on wine bottle, or the jacket the culprit wearing. Satoshi then says that Hara might be the culprit, because Hara always making eyes at his employees. He later tell the police that he was at home when the crime happened, and ask them to ask his wife Mihoko to proof the alibi. 

The police then go to Komaki's apartment, and ask Mihoko about Satoshi's alibi. Later, Conan notices that there is a mic on the figurines on the table. Kogoro then ask how Mihoko married to Satoshi. Two years ago, he was engaged to Ryohei Oi. However, Ryohei was stabbed by unknown assailant. A suspect was arrested for the murder, but they died in prison, and it seems like it was a wrongful arrest.

 

Turns out after that incident, the company she worked at suddenly went bankrupt, her sister was being stalked, her father's factory caught fire, and her mother fell off a train platform. After the series of unfortunate events, she meet Satoshi and got married.

 

Conan realizes that Mihoko is lying. He then search for the incident that happened on December 7, before telling Takagi and Chiba through messages that the room is bugged, and because of that, Mihoko can't tell the truth. Takagi decides to use eye blinking as a signal for "yes" or "no" for Mihoko. After they get the real answer thorough blinking, Takagi whispers to Mihoko that the police will ensure her safety.

 

Later, Mihoko says that she should cook for her husband. When Kogoro see some vegetables, he deduces that she want to cook pork soup, or rather signaling morse code through chopping the vegetables. They then observe if there is a hint she try to make.

 

Suddenly, Satoshi comes in with his bodyguard, and force the police to leave the apartment. Before leaving, Conan gives a good luck charm to Mihoko.

Episode 1042: Police Academy Arc Wild Police Story CASE. Kenji Hagiwara

Scenario: Furuya, Date, Matsuda, and Morobushi are gathered at a party. Date has a girlfriend, but Hagiwara offers to pay for her drinks, so she joins the party as a headcount. Then Hagiwara arrives late, saying that he was late because he was helping his grandmother on the way to the party. The second party is to go to a karaoke bar, but by then Hagiwara is on his own. The next day, while the five of them are cleaning up, an "RX-7FD3S" enters the police academy. Emerging from the car was instructor Onizuka. Hagiwara, who was extremely interested in the car, made an enthusiastic speech that overwhelmed the Onizuka instructor. However, this is not Onizuka's car, but the beloved car of a senior detective who died in the line of duty. The senior detective's daughter is aspiring to become a detective and is keeping it with her until then. During the heavy equipment training that followed, the topic of conversation turned to Hagiwara's condition earlier. Hagiwara's family had a car repair shop, so he was apparently familiar with cars. Their childhood friend, Matsuda, had also been in the Hagiwara family factory, and they were good at tinkering with machinery. Hagiwara said, "I really wanted to take over the factory, but as soon as the business was going well and they added more stores, the economy took a turn for the worse and the factory went under. In contrast, the police never go bankrupt," he says, which is why he decided to become a police officer.

After the heavy equipment training, a man approached Hagiwara and Matsuda. The man saw how good they were at their job and said, "I want to scout you for the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit. Matsuda immediately replies that he is interested, but Hagiwara refuses, saying that he needs to think about it once. Being in the same department as his friend Matsuda and being able to tinker with the machines he likes--this is appealing to Hagiwara, but there seems to be some reason for his reluctance.

Episode 1041: The Unstated Alibi

Scenario: An old lady was pushed down the stone steps of a temple in Yonehana-cho. She says that a young woman down pushed her, but there is no other information. Among the onlookers, she spots a man staring at the old woman. She calls out to him, but he acts suspiciously and leaves the scene, saying he knows nothing about it. Apparently, he had seen the crime scene, but has a reason he cannot tell. Conan and the Detective Boys split into two groups and begin investigating the man. Conan and Haibara learn from a waitress at a coffee shop that he is a man named Kanieda who lives in the town of Shikabane. The town is more than an hour away and they have never been to the coffee shop before, but the waitress remembers a phone call to the coffee shop that was addressed to Kanieida and how he looked at that time. Conan and the others attempt to contact Kanieida, who entrusted them with a lighter that he had left behind at the time.

 

Meanwhile, Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi, who had been tracking Kanieida, saw him wandering around Yonehana for about an hour, minding his watch, and then getting on a train from Yonehana Station while talking on his cell phone. Why did he use the phone at the coffee shop even though he had a cell phone? Conan is distrustful of Kanieida's appearance. Conan and the others identify the station where Kanieida is headed and chase after him. There, they see him and Detective Takagi and the others together. Conan and his friends interview him and find out that his name is "Eiichi Usui," which they thought was Kanieida.

 

Conan, Haibara, and the Detective Boys are going out, when they see a police officer. An old lady admits that ahe was pushed by a strange young woman from the stairs. However, there is no one who witness the incident.

Conan then realizes that there is a man standing on the alleyway near the scene, and ask him if he saw someone suspicious. However, he admits that he did not see anyone, before leaving the scene. From the man's behavior, Conan thinks that he is suspicious.

Mitsuhiko and Genta then follow the man, while Conan, Ayumi, and Haibara ask people around if they have see the man. Apparently, he was seen at a nearby cafe. The cafe owner says that he is Kanieda, who live in Shikabone, an hour away from Beika by car. The owner knows his name because there was a phone call from someone looking for Kanieda. When the owner ask if there is someone named Kanieda from Shikabone, the man repeatedly says the name and the town. It seems that the man was meeting someone at 1 pm, but the other person could not make it. She then hand over Conan a lighter, which seems belong to that man.

The group later gather at Beika Station, where the man named Kanieda was last seen. Mitsuhiko and Genta have no idea on what the man was doing, as he was attracting too much attention for a suspicous person around Beika. After about an hour, he went to Beika Station and get on the train. Conan then wonders why the man have to recieve call at a cafe while he has a cell phone. Conan also find it odd when the man get on the train that head to the opposite direction from Shikabone. That train stopped one station over at Midoridai, so the group then go to Midoridai and search for the man. Surprisingly, the man is found arrested by Takagi and Chiba, and is brought to Midoridai police station. There, Megure is interogating him.

Takagi then tell Conan and others that the man is Eiichi Usui who lives in Midoridai. Usui is the main suspect for the injury case involving Takeru Hachiya, who was found injured by Sueko Kakimoto at Midoridai Park. Sueko testified that she saw someone got into an argument with Hachiya several days ago, and because she had seen the culprit several times, she thought that the culprit also live in Midoridai. Near the crime scene, a pen with Usui's initial was found.

Usui admits that he have a grudge against Hachiya, but admits that he haven't been to the park. When Megure asks him where is he when Hachiya was attacked, he can't tell Megure. He even try to make a lie but not convicing enough. Conan then says that Usui is innocent, as Usui was at Beika around 1 pm, the time when Hachiya was attacked. Conan also hands over Takagi the lighter that should belong to Usui. However, Usui denied that he had been to Beika, and Usui's fingerprints were not found on the lighter.

The Detective Boys then leave the police station, wondering why Usui did not say that he has an alibi. Conan then decide to check Shikabone telephone book, and found someone named Akira Kanieda. They decide to go to Shikabone and ask Kanieda.

The next day, the Detective Boys go to Shikabone to meet Kanieda. However, Kanieda's neighbor says that Kanieda got hit by a car yesterday afternoon on the other side of the station and is in the hospital, unconscious. They later follow the neighbor to the hospital. Surprisingly, Kanieda looks similar to Usui.

The neighbor then wonder what Kanieda was doing at the south side of the station, when Kanieda thinks it is bad luck. Turns out that about a year ago, Kanieda's mother had some dentures made by a well-known dentist on the south side of the station named Kanzo Saruwatari. Not long after that, his mother was found dead while sleeping after the dentures got caught in her throat. Kanieda, during the funeral, blamed the dentist for making a poorly made dentures which killed his mother.

 

Conan then get confirmation that the accident also happened around 1 pm. After asking around for more details, he finally solves the case.
