Even destiny serves as a clue to deduction.

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

What became of the two officers?

As the evening grows, will their love fade?

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

We found out from Officer Yumi

that Officer Sato is going to be meeting a marriage candidate

who she has never met before.

No problem! Because it's all worked out

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

We arrived at Mizutozakura with feeling curious feelings.

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?

Robber!

Someone, please catch him!

At that time, Officer Takagi met a robber at a convenience store.

He ran after a criminal and hunted him down at a restroom in the park.

However, there were three suspects.

Besides, he hasn't been able to clear which one is the criminal,

because everyone testified differently.

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...

"Love Story At Police Headquarters 4 (Part 2)"

I have the three suspects that were in the restroom in the park

where the robber fled into with me.

Of the three, two are men.

One of them is Mr. Hiroshi Zama, 21 years old, a part-time worker.

He is about 180 centimeters tall,

and is wearing a blue sweater and pierced earrings.

The other man is Yasuo Kameida, 32 years old.

He is a prep school teacher and about 170 centimeters tall.

He is wearing a green sweater and glasses.

The last one is a woman called Ms. Eiko Koshimizu.

She is 28 years old and works in an office.

She is about 160 centimeters tall,

and is wearing black clothes and wears two wristwatches.

When the robber broke into the convenience store,

the outfit the robber had on were a helmet, a coat, and gloves.

The robber stuck out a knife

and showed the employee a paper with the words, "Give me money."

The robber is still unidentified.

There is no doubt

that the robber disposed of the coat

and ran into the restroom in the park.

But the problem is that the testimony of the witnesses all differ.

The old man who bumped into the robber in front of the park says

the robber is a woman wearing blue clothes.

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

that the robber's head stuck out from among the throng of people,

so the robber who is about 180 centimeters tall

and is most likely a man.

And from under the coat, she saw a color green shirt.

As for the owner of the coffee shop,

he said when he was outside the shop, he saw the robber running away.

He says that the robber was about 170 centimeters

and wearing black clothes under the coat.

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.

How did you know the owner's name?

I've known him from before.

Officer, what's up?

Did you arrest the robber?

Not yet.

Take the owner outside.

Hurry!

Hey!

Where are you taking me?

Let's talk inside the shop.

I'm sorry, but please come with me.

What's with you?

Your glasses are sunglasses?

I'm pretty sure that the sunglasses

that the owner's wearing have photochromic lens

that change color for about 15 seconds

when he goes outside and is exposed to ultraviolet rays.

From what I know, the owner doesn't wear glasses,

so I thought that it may be possible.

Well, I'm wearing these glasses just for show.

I decided to wear them just for fun only recently.

I completely forgot about them.

Which means that the robber's clothes that you saw

may have looked darker than the actual color

because of the change in the color of the lens of your glasses?

But about the robber being about 170 centimeters is a fact.

But...

another witness says that the robber was about 180 centimeters.

The shop that the girl said she saw the robber through the window,

where is it?

About 100 meters from this coffee shop.

In the direction of the convenience store.

Oh, it's over there.

Then, please go to where the shop is.

If I remember correctly,

she said she saw the head of the robber above the throng of people?

Yes.

That street

leads from the entrance of the subway to the bus stop,

so depending on the time,

it becomes congested with people.

If a throng of people come heading in your direction,

how would you try to make it through, Officer Takagi?

How?

I would try to avoid them as much as possible.

If you feel that doing so

will not get you through the crowd, then what will you do?

Well, I would have no choice

but to give up running along the sidewalk part way

and run along the curbstone...

I get it!

The girl witnessed the robber running along the curb stone,

and mistook the robber's height as being over 180 centimeters!

A puzzle.

It's a jigsaw puzzle, Officer Takagi.

Although the pieces may look scattered and mismatching,

if you rotate them and look at them from a different angle,

they will surely fit in perfectly.

The mismatching pieces of testimony that the witnesses

give us are indispensable pieces

that we need to complete the puzzle.

Conan's sure taking his time, isn't he?

Oh, I guess I'll go check on him.

I wonder if Conan ate something bad.

I made toast and sunny side ups for breakfast today.

And for lunch...

I'm pretty sure I've seen

that person once before...

Oh, my. So it wasn't the right person after all?

I've seen that person somewhere before.

The only person left is the old man who says he ran into the robber.

According to my deduction,

the testimony of that old man is the most decisive.

Hey, Kudo.

Yes?

Why?

How did you know so much?

-Well, that's... -Conan?

Oh, no! It's Ran!

Conan, are you all right?

Oh, so will you please talk to that old man once more?

Then, you'll be able to narrow the robber down to just one person!

Hold on.

If I remember correctly the old man testified

that the robber was a woman wearing blue clothes under her coat.

But Mr. Zama is the one who is the one wearing blue clothes.

Oh, yes. It's his pierced earrings!

The old man saw the earrings and thought it was a woman...

Oh, wait. When they bumped into each other the robber

should still have been wearing the helmet.

He couldn't have seen the robber's face.

Then, why did he think the robber was a woman?

Darn it.

40 minutes left to sundown.

I've got to hurry or else Officer Sato will have to...

Watch...

Come to think of it, that person...

I see! That's what it was!

I've got it!

I've figured out who the robber is!

The sun has set quite a bit.

Oh, I guess so.

Officer Sato.

It's not that I don't trust you,

but if Officer Takagi fails to make it here in time,

I'd like some proof of it.

Proof?

As proof of it,

I'd like you to give me a kiss as a pledge of your promise.

He said a kiss.

A kiss of pledge?

Me and you?

Yes.

You don't mind, do you?

Because if Officer Takagi doesn't come here by sundown,

we're going to get married anyway.

You promised not to go back on your word, didn't you?

Yes, of course.

Come on. What's keeping you, Officer Takagi?

Hurry up and arrest the robber, will you?

Oh, Officer Takagi.

Did you find out anything new?

No, not at all.

The testimonies of the witnesses

are still all different as far as the robber is concerned.

A woman wearing a blue dress,

a man wearing green clothes that is more than 180 centimeters tall

or a person wearing black clothes that is about 170 centimeters.

That's no help...

We can't possibly narrow down the suspect to one person

with what we've got now.

I guess I'll take my time.

Because after all, it's still before 3 pm.

So, I've still got lots of time.

Hey, just what are you talking about?

Your watch must be broken.

It's already 4:30 pm.

Huh?

So, it was you after all, wasn't it?

Huh?

Officer Takagi.

The owner shop said that the robber was wearing black clothes

because he had glasses with photochromic lens on.

And the girl said the robber was more than 180 meters tall

because the robber in order to avoid the crowd,

he ran along the curbstone.

Aside from the testimonies black clothes

and more than 180 centimeters,

when matching the testimonies of the two,

the robber is said to have been about 170 centimeters

and wearing green clothes.

In other words, Mr. Kamieda...

you're the one who did it.

But the old man who bumped into the robber said that

the robber was a woman wearing blue clothes.

Yes.

But at that time,

it had completely slipped my mind that the witness

was an elderly man.

Take a look.

What a beautiful sunset.

20 more minutes to go untill the sun completely sets.

Officer Takagi.

Officer Takagi.

Officer Takagi!

I get it, the old man!

Elderly men in Japan sometimes say blue

when they actually mean the color green!

Yes.

Elderly people in Japan

used to say blue regardless of

whether they meant indigo, light blue or green.

After recalling that Mr. Kamieda was a prep school teacher,

an idea raced through my mind.

He mentioned that

he tried to devise ways of not making the students worry

about the passage of time during his classes.

So, I figured that it could be that he had the face

of his wristwatch turned towards the inner part of his wrist

where only he himself could see what time it was.

I see.

So the old man

mistook the robber as being a woman

because the face of the robber's wristwatch was on the inner side

of the wrist than the outer.

Yes.

He probably always used to wear his wristwatch in this fashion

because it was too much trouble

to keep changing the position of his wristwatch for every class.

In other words,

the testimony of the witnesses all point to the fact

that you are the one who robbed the convenience store,

Mr. Kamieda!

A little less than 10 minutes to go.

I guess I've won the bet.

Please don't wear such a dreadful look.

I'm not going to force you to marry me right away,

at least not until you're perfectly ready to accept me.

I'm willing to wait as long as you want me to.

Huh?

I don't want to make an enemy out of you.

I'm always on your side.

Inspector Shiratori...

The phone...

Oh, Officer Sato?

Takagi here!

I just arrested the convenience store robber.

The place you're at is pretty near from here,

so I'll be over in about five minutes.

Just hurry up and come get me then, will you?

Good grief.

May I ask you a question before I head on there?

What?

Why me?

-Huh? -Why did you believe in a person like me...

and agree to bet on something so important

that would affect your whole life?

Because I was positive that you would come get me!

Does it bug you?

Oh, well...

You see, that's...

Maybe...

You...

Well, you...

I thought that you like...

The robber got away!

Hey, freeze!

Come on, Officer Takagi!

Oh, but...

I don't have time left!

Officer Takagi.

Which means more to you, the convenience store robber or me?

Huh?

Go after him, Officer Takagi!

Yes!

Are you sure it's okay?

If he goes after the robber now, there's no way he'll make it in time.

Well, if so,

I guess I'll have to resign to the fact that

it was destined to turn out this way.

It could be that the heavens punished me

for getting Officer Takagi involved in this bet without his permission.

But a bet's a bet!

Shall we get started...

with that pledge or whatever it is?

4:56 pm, suspect arrested.

I wanted money.

I needed severance money

to give to a woman who persistently hung around me.

Goodness.

I've come quite a distance

from Minatorou.

I would never be able to make it there now.

Officer Takagi!

You did it, Officer Takagi.

No, I goofed and let go of

who I really wanted to catch the most.

Hey, so what's the matter?

Hurry up and get on with it.

I'm all ready and set!

Ready and set?

But your face says you don't want to.

Don't worry, Miwako.

Let's just stay this way for a while and calm down a bit.

After all, there is nothing to keep us apart anymore anyway.

They're finally going to kiss.

I'll go stop them!

What are you talking about?

Dr. Araide, can you please come here?

I'll take him to the station,

so you go on ahead, Officer Takagi.

You're an officer, aren't you?

If so, then do what an officer

is expected to do and pursue your target until the end!

Takagi!

Okay.

The sun will completely set soon.

Have you calmed down?

Yes.

What is it, Conan?

You know...

I never realized

that he had...

come to mean so much to me.

Hey...

Hold it!

I'm really a crummy officer

for realizing something like this only now.

I guess this is just what I need to forget the whole deal.

Goodbye, Officer Takagi.

Assistant Inspector Miwako Sato!

I'm sorry to bother you when you're off duty,

but we've got a case

and I hope you'll come to back us up?

Officer Takagi?

He's come! Officer Takagi!

Bad timing!

Officer Takagi!

Officer Takagi?

Conan?

Officer Takagi...

Officer Takagi just went running down the corridor to the entrance.

Good grief.

Oh, Miwako.

Miss?

No good.

The sun has completely set.

I couldn't make it in time.

Police Sergeant Takagi!

Huh?

What the hell are you doing?

Hurry up, get in!

Officer Sato.

You've got a case on your hands, haven't you?

Oh, yes.

I couldn't help but wanting to help out.

I mean those two are so awkward at things like this

just like some other two whom I'm really familiar with.

Sire...

I feel real bad for doing this to Inspector Shiratori, though.
