Even destiny serves as a clue to deduction.

And the light of truth pierces through the most mysterious case.

Those two have our complete attention.

A wager between two adults causes the case to expand.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Hey, Miwako!

An officer of the renowned Metropolitan Police Department

First Investigation Division is lying around during the day

with her mouth full of tangerines while watching TV.

Give me a break.

It's my day off. It won't hurt to take it easy, will it?

Here, then.

Not again! Pictures of my marriage mate candidates.

If you've got time to be loafing around, you should look through them.

No way! I'm sick and tired of looking at pictures

because I've got to look at bloody pictures of autopsies

all the time.

How did you ever end up turning into such a tomboy?

It's all my fault.

I raised you by giving you too much freedom.

I couldn't possibly face up to your father who died on duty

and is watching over us from the heavens.

Okay, then.

But I'm just merely going to meet them. That's all.

Oh, my! Just as would be expected of my daughter.

You have the same taste as I when it comes to men.

"Love Story At Police Headquarters 4 (Part 1)"

What? Officer Sato is going to meet

a marriage mate candidate?

Right!

I'm sure that Miwako is all dressed up by now

and are meeting up with that man.

Just who is that man?

Miwako doesn't know either.

Because she told me she chose the picture of her would-be-mate

without even looking inside the envelope.

No way!

You mean she's meeting a man

she doesn't even know the looks of?

No problem, though!

He's a man that decided to meet a woman officer

who is in active duty, right?

I'm sure he's a very independent and reliable,

square middle aged man.

"Japanese Restaurant Minatorou"

Hey, hey!

10 minutes have already gone by

since the promised time of meeting!

A man who has the nerve to keep a lady waiting

couldn't be worth much anyway!

I'm leaving.

It's not big deal, he's only 10 minutes late.

Ms. Sato?

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.

I am Isokichi Kamoi,

please remember me from here on after.

What's this?

Is this old man supposed to be my marriage candidate?

No! He's the butler!

Well, since this meeting popped up so suddenly...

My master and his wife are on a trip abroad,

so sire asked to come along in their place.

Sire?

Hi, I'm so sorry.

I took a while to choose flowers that would suit you, Ms. Sato.

Oh, no.

I shouldn't call you Ms. Sato today, but rather...

would it be all right for me to call you Miwako?

Shiratori?

Long time no see, Mother.

Hello.

What? Why?

Just what are you talking about?

You chose him yourself, didn't you?

-Huh? -Being attracted to a police officer,

no doubt you're my daughter after all.

You mean no one in the First Investigation Division

knows about her meeting today?

Does that mean even Officer Takagi doesn't know about it, too?

No.

She said that she would never agree to going out with the man anyway,

and is embarrassed, so she was keeping it a secret.

Besides, Miwako is quite popular with the guys

that if the word goes out, it may cause a commotion.

But...

what if the man she is seeing wants to marry her?

No problem! Because it's all worked out

that she'll get out of there when the time is right.

Nobody would ever want to marry a woman

who splits the scene saying

that she has to go cover a case, right?

But who's going to do that?

You silly thing. Who else but Officer Takagi?

I'm going to mail him on his phone with the message,

"Miwako is in trouble!"

And say that a criminal case has come up

and take her away from where she is.

I'm sure that he'll going bursting in with a face

that you've never seen before.

You witch.

He may just confess how he feels for her

if situation pushes him to do so.

Hey, why don't we go there too?

But it's pretty far from here.

Why don't you give us a lift there, Officer Yumi?

I can't because I'm still on duty.

What are you all doing here?

Dr. Araide!

Lucky!

Huh?

What an honor.

To think that you chose me

from among the number of candidates that you have.

So, like I've been saying it was sheer coincidence!

The picture that I chose without even looking at

happened to be you.

Oh, Miwako.

You're saying something like that just to hide your embarrassment.

I rather prefer that it was a coincidence.

Because it would mean

that your beautiful fingers were guided

to my picture by some work of God.

I feel that it was a work of fate.

That's right.

Splendid, Sire!

I can't possibly tell him

that I picked his picture up with my toes.

I wonder if Yumi's really going to carry out the planned.

I'll send my kid brother over, so hang in there.

She promised me by saying so.

I wonder who she means by kid brother?

Are you all right, Officer Takagi?

You've been sneezing quite a bit.

Hold on.

Yes, Takagi here.

Oh, Officer Takagi?

Did you read the mail I sent you?

Mail?

Robber!

Someone, please catch him!

Let's go after him, Officer Chiba!

Yes, sir!

Hello, Officer Takagi?

Hey, are you listening?

Hey, Officer Takagi!

Excuse me, we're the police.

Please let us through!

Oh, there he is! That's him!

He went into the alley!

Don't let him get away!

Are you all right, Mister?

Did you see someone wearing a helmet?

The guy rammed into me

and ran towards the restroom of the park.

Officer Takagi!

There's a helmet, a coat, a bag and gloves.

There's no doubt about it,

the man who robbed the convenience store is inside the restroom.

Police! There's no use trying to flee any further!

Come out quietly!

"Hiroshi Zama (21)" -Hey, what's with all the fuss?

"Eiko Koshimizu (28)" -What do you want?

"Yasuo Kamieda (32)" -What would the police want to with me?

There's three people?

These are the three people who were using the restroom

Well?

Can you make out who bumped into you?

Not really.

Because my glasses fell off when the person bumped into me,

so I couldn't see very well since my vision was blurred.

Any little thing will do!

Please tell me what you remember!

Well, the person was taller than me.

She was a girl wearing blue clothes under her coat!

A girl?

Ms. Koshimizu is the only woman,

but the clothes she's wearing is black.

What am I supposed to do? That's all I remember!

Hey! I don't have any idea what's going on, but...

If we have nothing to do with what's going on,

can we head on home?

I've got other commitments after this.

Please wait!

You may leave

only after we finish questioning the other witnesses!

What?

Shiratori? Don't tell me that he's the one from the police department?

Yes, he's in the Tsuru Room together with Ms. Sato.

Which means that the man Officer Sato is meeting is...

Inspector Shiratori?

Would you like me to take them a message?

Oh, well...

We were asked by the two families

to bring them an interesting gift.

It's going to take some time to prepare,

so will you please let us use the room next to the Tsuru Room?

Yes, sure. It just so happens to be vacant.

Thank you, Miss!

Please wait a while, then.

I'm very sorry to trouble you.

That kid is pretty sharp.

Oh, my! How delicious!

We had our chef come over to cook for us here

so that you could taste the kind of meal

that we eat at the Shiratori residence,

and had him make these exquisite Japanese dishes!

Sire had informed us that Ms. Miwako doesn't like French cuisine.

Huh? Did you have food that you didn't like?

Hey, Miwako?

Oh, yes.

Excuse me!

Is there anyone who witnessed the robber

in this convenience store a while ago?

Hey, Officer!

Wouldn't it be faster for you to ask the employee

of the convenience store?

We already did!

She said the robber stuck out a knife and showed a paper

that said "Give me the cash",

so the only thing she remembers is the helmet and coat.

What a hopeless case.

Darn it. Give me a break.

Excuse me, Officer.

Yes?

I can tell you how tall the robber was.

The person who was wearing a helmet and a coat, right?

I was watching through the window of the shop,

but I saw the person's head sticking out of the throng of people,

so I think the person's height was about 180 centimeters.

180 centimeters would be the tallest of the three,

Mr. Zama.

Come to think of it, he was wearing a blue sweater.

Oh, when the person's coat flipped over a bit,

I saw the color green!

Not blue?

No, I'm positive that it was green!

Were able to tell if it was a man or a woman?

With a height of 180 centimeters, wouldn't it be a man?

I see.

-Hey, Officer! -Yes?

That coffee shop owner

was bragging that he looked at the robber close.

Really?

Yes, I sure saw him!

The weirdo wearing a helmet who went running off!

It was when I was getting the samples of the lunch time menu out.

Can you give me the characteristics of that person?

I'm not sure if the person was a man or woman,

but the height was about 170 centimeters.

The person had a coat over black clothes.

Did you say black?

About 170 centimeters would be Mr. Kamieda.

But he is wearing green colored sweater.

Hey, what's going on?

Well, I guess we'll excuse ourselves for a while.

You two take your time and talk things out together.

Hey, Yumi.

When is she coming to pick me up?

I see.

So someone is supposed to come rescue

the beautiful princess from the hands of the evil prince?

Don't be ridiculous!

Just what are you talking about?

Okay, let's do this.

If Officer Takagi comes to get you,

I shall gracefully back down.

But if he chickens out and doesn't show up,

you will be my wife.

Huh? Why is it Officer Takagi?

Why not?

It's just a joke!

I just wanted to see you look troubled.

All right, then.

Huh?

It's a deal!

What?

Officer Takagi, just what is going on?

What do you mean by the testimonies

of the witnesses don't match?

There were three witnesses in all, weren't there?

Yes, all three of them

remembered the characteristics of the robber very well.

The old man who bumped into the robber said

that it was a woman wearing blue clothes.

The girl who was watching through the window of a shop said

that the robber was more than 180 centimeters tall,

wearing green clothes, and most probably a male.

And the owner of the coffee shop insisted that

the robber was about 170 centimeters and was wearing black clothes.

All three witnesses had something absolutely different to say.

Right.

I don't believe they told a lie.

I guess so.

Shall we begin interrogating the three suspects, then?

Yes.

What do you mean by it's a deal?

Are you sure you know what you're talking about?

Yes, I do.

If Officer Takagi comes here to get me,

then this meeting for possible marriage

is called off immediately, right?

If he doesn't show up, I marry you and become your wife.

Instead of waiting without a time limit,

how about we set the limit at sundown?

Hey, you've got to be joking, Officer Sato.

Things are starting to sound really interesting, right?

But what if Officer Takagi doesn't show up?

It could be that Officer Sato

is following the "Cinderella" story, you know.

Inspector Shiratori is after all the son of a tycoon

that attends most of the parties held at my house.

I thought that Officer Sato and Officer Takagi

was really getting along well though.

Well, she went as far as to say what she did.

So, I think she thinks that the odds are in her favor.

Okay. So, it's all right with you then?

Yes! I will not go back on my word!

That's right, it's Officer Takagi.

I'm sure that he's the one that's going to pick me up

that Yumi was talking about!

Yes, I'm sure that he'll come.

I'm sure?

Why?

My name is Yasuo Kamieda. I teach at a prep school.

I stopped over at that restroom

on my way to a book store nearby where I was planning to buy a book.

I'm Hiroshi Zama, a part-time worker.

I just happened to use that restroom

on my way back from band practice.

I'm Eiko Koshimizu. I work at an office.

I was taking a walk when I suddenly came down with a stomachache.

So I went to that restroom.

Now that I've said all I have to say, let me go!

It's already after 2:00!

Huh? You're wearing two wristwatches?

My boyfriend's abroad,

so I'm wearing a wristwatch showing the time of the country he's in.

It's not nice calling him at a ridiculous time, is it?

Back in middle school,

a teacher told me to wear two wristwatches, too.

Because I was always late for class.

Hey, mister! What's so funny?

Well, I always tell my students at prep school

to take off their watches during class,

so I just thought what a difference.

You mean the wristwatches of the students?

Yes, because I want them to concentrate on the lessons

without thinking of time.

I also removed clocks of the classroom

as thinking out other things to help them.

By the way, what about the band you just mentioned, Mr. Zama?

Oh, I'm playing in the band with my high school friends.

It's a visual type band!

When I play in the band, I dress like a woman.

I may not look it, but I get a lot of calls from my fans

and I'm pretty popular, too.

Oh, I see.

Oh, talking about phone calls,

there was a call for you from Officer Yumi a while ago.

She said for you to read the mail she sent you.

I'll bet she wants to go singing karaoke or something again.

Little does she know of the predicament I'm in.

A convenience store robbery?

Oh, no.

I just had something I wanted to ask Officer Takagi.

Please tell him to give it his best shot, Inspector Megure.

Hey, what's this about a convenience store robbery?

Wasn't Officer Takagi supposed to be checking on a case today?

After he finished checking on the case,

he seems to have run into the convenience store robbery case.

It seems he's already narrowed the suspects downto three people, though.

It seems the testimony of the witnesses are a bit various.

What do you mean various?

There's only one suspect, isn't there?

Well, I don't have the slightest idea.

Okay, I'll contact Officer Takagi myself, then.

It's against the rule for you to call him from your side.

It's much too disadvantageous for me.

Well, I'm sure everything will turn out all right.

He'll rush over here as soon as he arrests

the convenience store robber.

Or maybe you don't believe he will?

It's not like that.

Then again, if a police officer abandons the case

in the midst of an investigation,

and shows up in a place like this,

he'll have to go through disciplinary action

taken against him for violating duty regulations.

If I remember correctly,

he went through a pay cut once before, didn't he?

If he has the guts to show up here knowing

that he may have to undergo disciplinary action for the second time,

I'll admit that he's been a man about the whole thing.

The situation doesn't look too good, does it?

Oh, come on. We can't just do nothing!

Quiet.

I've got to go to the restroom.

Officer!

Just how long to you intend to keep us locked up in this car?

The sun's going to set!

Just a little while longer.

Hello, Officer Yumi? My hands are tied just yet and...

Hi, this is Shinichi Kudo.

What?

Conan asked me to give you a call.

What did Conan ask you to do?

Please check your cell phone mail

and take note of the situation that you're in now.

But the only mail I got today was from Officer Yumi.

"Miwako is in trouble!

Resue her from Minatoro where she is holding a marrige meeting."

Officer Sato is meeting her husband to be?

So, you haven't read the mail, have you?

But don't worry, and please calm down.

There's still a lot of time to go until sundown,

and the place she's meeting him is in the neighboring town, Haido-cho.

Sundown?

Officer Sato agreed to the terms that her proposed husband suggested.

If you don't solve the case by sundown and go to get her,

she's going to have to accept her partner's marriage proposal.

Please give me the details of the case.

Officer Takagi?

Officer Takagi, can you hear me?

Hey...

I see.

All three suspects that was testified

has totally different characteristics of the robber.

How interesting!

What do you mean by interesting, Kudo?

First of all,

go to that coffee shop and talk to Mr. Mamehara, the owner.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Wristwatch"

Officer Sato, just between us, tell me how you really feel.

Inspector Shiratori gets one point.
