Episode 1164: The 17-Year-Old Truth (The Bloody Knight)

Scenario: On a rainy day, Kogoro decides to reward himself after gaining a lot of money from the investigation, with Wakita asking where Conan could be. As it turns out, he went to the building where the Detective Boys, Rumi and Kobayashi are cheering Shiratori as he is participating in the tournament, with Kobayashi giving him the knight keychain as a lucky charm.

The Bloody Knight

When Haibara and the Detective Boys are discussing the strongest chess piece, Rumi asks her why she knows too much around, in which Conan replies as Agasa taught her how to play chess and other knowledge as well. Later, the group meets up with other tournament participants, including Kurumi Shiroi, Kinji Ogarawa, Naoto Kishitami and Kunikazu Kisaki, with each of them having their own chess piece as a lucky charm. Ogawara mentions that a chess player named Ryoichiro Saso used Amazing Grace as his phone tune, only to be betrayed by the tune itself.

In the tournament, Shiratori faces Kuroda but suddenly someone’s phone rings, causing Shiratori to be distracted and he is then declared lost. However, when the two meet up with Kobayashi’s group, Shiratori loses his lucky charm somewhere, so he has to go back to the tournament to find it. Kuroda then greets Kobayashi and Rumi, he also mentions that he had met Rumi somewhere, even before the event of the burning tent murder case, in which she denies.

In the waiting room, Shiroi, Ogawara and Kunikazu discuss the ringtone played in the match after they hear a strange sound. Later, Ogawara’s glass suddenly breaks when he is going to have his drink, which makes him scream in fear. And apparently, an arrow has flown through his glass and hit his bag. Conan and Kuroda then try to find the culprit’s trace following the open door, and when they pass by a different “cleaning up” sign in the restroom, Conan opens the restroom and sees Kishitani being dead with several arrows in his body. At the scene there are also a crossbow, a magazine, and a knight keychain which Conan confirms it belongs to Shiratori.

Kuroda informs this and Shiratori being a suspect for him, Shiratori explains that indeed he was in the restroom to find the lucky charm, but there was no “cleaning up” sign, and apparently someone was using the restroom as well, so he tried to find it in stairway. He also mentions that he needed to use the phone to inform his butler about the result of the tournament. The Police arrive and begin listening to their report about the incident and deduce that the culprit must have escaped, but Conan deduces that this is not a suicide and the suspects are: Shiroi, Ogawara, Kunikazu and Shiratori, as Kuroda can confirm that no one used the elevator in this floor, and Shiratori was in the stairway when he was looking for the lucky charm.

While Kunizaku expresses that something is wrong when the Police trust a boy like Conan, Kuroda points out that his jacket seems to have a strange tear. Shiroi mentions that they heard a strange sound after returning from the match, and they find an arrow in the wall where they heard the noise.

The Police ask what the suspects had done after leaving the match, Kunikazu was buying drinks in the vending machine after he left the match with the victim when Shiroi and Ogawara showed up, after hearing the noise, he just played game until the glass broke; Kishitani received a message when he was buying drinks like Kunikazu, the message frightened him so he ran away to somewhere; Shiroi was going along with Ogawara until she went to the bathroom to see the match again with earphone, so she didn’t notice much of noise outside; Ogawara says that he also used the restroom when he separated from Shiroi, he noticed one of the toilet but didn’t know it was Kishitani, after using the restroom, he went to the waiting room with others.

When Megure takes the charm out, Conan can finally see the bloodstained side of it, this reminds both Wakasa and Kuroda of something long ago while Conan is deducing. Megure also states that there is a bloodstained crossword page, indicating that the victim may have left his last word there. The Detective Boys and Haibara mention that there were 2 glass boxes in the trash bin, one with nothing, one with shattered glasses. Conan then smiles, indicating that he knows the truth behind.

Outside the building, Rum is seen smiling in his car with his cigarette.
