Love and hate are brought together.

Through both reasoning and suspense.

Fishing, fireworks, and a house boat.

An accident or a case

depending on the skill of deduction.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

"Sayori Unabara (22), in charge of cooking and customer relation"

"Fukuo Unabara (50), Captain of 'Unabara Maru'"

"Kazuyuki Kawai (65), President of a building company"

Oh! There it is!

Unabara Maru. That's the one! That's it!

Welcome! The entrance is this way.

Well, Mr. Kawai, thank you for inviting us over tonight.

Same here.

You've been so much help to me in so many ways that it's no big deal.

Getting to watch the fireworks on a houseboat is so fantastic!

It sure is rare that they're having fireworks at this time of season.

Hey, come on, Conan!

Hi there, sorry to keep you all waiting!

I had a big transaction to take care of.

Mr. Yamazaki,

I'm sorry that I suddenly asked you to come

despite your busy schedule.

I've got your fishing equipment ready too.

"Tsuneo Yamazaki (60), President of a finance company"

All you can eat, all you can drink,

and watching fireworks too.

To top things off I also get to go fishing.

I couldn't possibly refuse.

Captain, please sail the ship out because we're all here.

Yes, sir!

"Houseboat Fishing Shock"

This ship is so spacious,

and yet we're the only ones on board?

The fact is, I reserved this boat for our company's pleasure trip,

but urgent work came in...

I couldn't cancel the trip at this point, so...

I asked Mr. Yamazaki and Mr. Mouri, whom I'm always being helped by

to come along.

Thank you for waiting!

Oh! Here's the food!

Finally, at last!

Go ahead everybody, help yourself to your heart's content!

Here, Mr. Kawai, have some too.

How do you like this fishing pole?

Oh, so that's the carbon type new model fishing pole

that is your pride and joy?

It's light as well as steady

so even a big catch is no big deal.

Please use this tonight.

And? What about you, Mr. Kawai?

No need for worry.

I brought one of the same type with me.

Oh...

Would you like to come along with us too, Mr. Mouri?

Fishing, would you like to go fishing?

But, I don't have a pole for Mr. Mouri.

You may use the one we have here, if it's okay with you.

We have several fishing poles here just in case, for our customers.

You're really service minded, how thoughtful.

Mr. Mouri, are you interested in fishing?

Fishing...

No thanks.

I guess beer is better for me!

Hello, we're almost there!

The scenic point for watching fireworks

is also a great spot for fishing!

Just the other day, a super large sea bream was caught here.

The tides are good today

so I'm sure you'll get a good catch.

It makes me so excited!

I wish you both the best of luck.

Yeah, I'll get a big one for sure!

The same here.

Wow!

It's so pretty.

Tamaya!

Are you enjoying yourselves?

Yes, watching fireworks in autumn is quite fascinating too.

Here, have some more.

Oh, thank you.

Sayori, will you please bring us more beer?

Yes, sir.

Bring some for Mr. Kawai and his guest too.

Yes, sir.

What was that?

What seems to be the matter?

That...

Mr. Kawai, please get a hold of yourself! Mr. Kawai!

Where's Mr. Yamazaki?

Are you okay, mister?

Don't touch!

Stay out of the way!

No good, he's already dead.

He's got burns on the palm of his hand.

This is...

The lights on the ship went out a while ago.

Yeah.

He said this fishing pole is made of carbon.

Just as I thought!

This part of the electrical lighting is exposed!

Which means...

Right.

Mr. Yamazaki was holding a carbon type fishing pole

that conducts electricity.

His feet is soaked with the seawater that was in the bucket.

Mr. Yamazaki's fishing pole probably accidentally touched

the part of the electrical wiring that was exposed

while he was fishing.

Therefore, he was electrocuted.

That accounts for the burn on the palm of his hand.

Mr. Kawai probably collapsed when he tried to help Mr. Yamazaki.

Please call the ambulance and the police, Sayori.

Yes, sir!

Captain, please take the boat back to the harbour.

Yes, sir.

And, what is the cause of his death?

We can't really say until the coroner finishes the autopsy, but...

According to the paramedics,

the victim's heart seems to have stopped instantaneously

due to intense electrical shock.

Just as I thought.

But why did Mr. Yamazaki's fishing pole touch the electrical wiring?

There were practically no waves today and it was quiet,

so the boat didn't sway as much either, did it?

That's true.

Mr. Kawai, can you tell us what happened?

Yes.

Well, the thing is... I happened to get a big bite on my pole.

It was so big that I couldn't handle it alone, so...

I asked Mr. Yamazaki to help me.

We were pulling the pole together when suddenly...

The line cut

and we fell backwards holding the fishing pole.

Then, everything went black...

It's as if I had murdered Mr. Yamazaki.

If only I didn't ask Mr. Yamazaki to help me,

this wouldn't have happened!

Please calm down.

It was an accident.

It's not your fault, Mr. Kawai.

About Mr. Kawai's testimony just now, when this case took place...

-Accident! -Oh, I'm sorry.

The captain of a boat that was sailing nearby also witnessed the scene.

Yes, I saw it.

It looked as if they were both trying to pull up a fish.

I think it was just when they were about to pull the fish up.

It seems the fishing line was so close to the rim of the boat

that it was virtually rubbing against it.

Then, the fishing line suddenly broke off and they both fell.

We sailed pass them right after that,

so I don't know what happened later.

This was what he saw.

See! So, it was an accident after all.

You even got a witness.

But both of them got electrocuted,

and why was only Mr. Kawai okay?

Mr. Yamazaki had a weak heart to begin with

so he was going to the hospital on a regular basis.

Come to think of it, he was also taking medication.

I was just lucky.

By the way, Mr. Unabara,

was that electric wiring always exposed like that?

I always check the entire boat before sailing off,

but I didn't notice any abnormalities at that time.

I also checked, so there's no mistake about it.

A part of the vinyl covering of the electrical wiring

was probably deteriorated

and when the fishing pole touched it,

it completely peeled off.

So it was an accident after all.

But, if so,

the responsibility of this accident will fall upon

Captain Unabara, who left the electrical wiring

in such a dangerous condition.

Oh, no!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I was just mentioning a possibility.

I'm sorry. Will you all please explain things in a little more detail?

Of course.

-Sure. -Thank you.

Shall we start then?

This is...

What's this?

The vinyl is melted as if it's been burnt.

Strange...

Drops of the melted vinyl should be somewhere.

Yet, there's none...

I get it.

That's why he...

I've figured it out.

This is not an accident...

but homicide!

All right then, Mr. Unabara, Mr. Kawai.

I'd like to submit a formal report of the accident,

so although I know it's inconvenient for you,

please come with me to the station.

Yes, sir.

As to the rest of you here, you may go for tonight.

Conan's not here.

I tell you, going here, there and everywhere all the time.

I'm here.

Just what were you doing?

We're going home.

Wait, I got to go to the restroom.

Oh boy...

Please wait, everyone!

This is no accident that happened coincidentally.

But, Mr. Mouri, you just mentioned a while ago that it was an accident.

Yes, but there is something that's bothering me.

Mr. Unabara, can you show everyone

the tip of the fish line that is cut, that Mr. Kawai was using?

Yes.

Mr. Unabara, what do you think, seeing that cut line?

What do I think?

Huh? Strange, this doesn't look to have been pulled apart.

It looks as if it's been cut by a knife or something.

Really?

-Officer. -Yes?

Please check the brim of the left shipboard.

The blade of a cutter knife is embedded.

And, a fish hook is hooked on the body of the ship underneath it.

Okay.

I'll go along too.

There it is! It's the blade of a cutter!

Officer!

See, over there!

A fish line.

Mr. Mouri! It's exactly as you said.

The blade of the cutter and fish hook are still here.

When I cleaned the ship before departing, they weren't there.

Sure they weren't,

because Mr. Kawai set it up after sailing out to the sea,

in order to kill Mr. Yamazaki.

What a thing to say, Mr. Mouri?

When just Mr. Yamazaki and you were the only ones on deck,

you embedded the blade of the cutter into the brim of the ship,

when Mr. Yamazaki's eyes weren't on you.

As well as, hook your fish hook onto the body of the ship.

Then, you pretended to have caught a big one,

and urged Mr. Yamazaki to help you.

When Mr. Yamazaki grabs your fishing pole,

the blade inserted in the brim of the ship cuts the line.

Finally, you pushed Mr. Yamazaki down

so that the fishing pole would touch the electrical wiring.

Don't be ridiculous!

I was electrocuted too, you know!

I was almost killed myself too!

Yes,

if you were bare-handed and bare-footed like Mr. Yamazaki.

Just what do you mean, Mr. Mouri?

Mr. Kawai, will you show me what's in your pocket?

I really don't have anything inside.

Mr. Kawai, will you please show us what's inside?

What is it?

I...

Please!

Mr. Kawai...

A flesh coloured rubber glove?

Mr. Kawai.

That's a pretty odd glove to be using for fishing, isn't it?

It's up to me what kind of a glove I want to use, isn't it?

Besides, this just so happened to be in my pocket.

I was bare-handed when that accident occurred.

Or is it that somebody saw me wearing gloves?

The same goes for the blade of the cutter.

I'll bet you don't have proof that I did it!!

It was just a mere coincidental accident that Yamazaki died!

No, it wasn't an accident.

I'm sure you had an intention to kill him!

What?

Think about it.

When you pull a fish line that almost rubs against the brim of the ship,

you'd have to pull it vertically against the brim.

If the fish line was suddenly cut,

they would've fallen perpendicular to the brim of the ship.

But in order for the fishing pole to touch the electrical wiring,

they would have to fall horizontally to the brim of the ship.

In other words, the moment the fish line was cut,

you pushed Mr. Yamazaki horizontally against the brim of the ship.

You did so to make the fishing pole

touch the exposed electrical wiring

with the intention to kill him.

Don't be ridiculous!

You're only letting your imagination run wild!

How can you be so sure that I pushed Mr. Yamazaki down?

How rude can you get?

Please present more undeniable evidence!

I have evidence.

Will somebody light Mr. Kawai's lighter?

No good. It doesn't work.

Mr. Kawai,

you lit your cigarette with that lighter before we departed, didn't you?

Why won't it light now?

There seems to be

what looks to be the burnt remains on the wick of the lighter.

That adhered when he burnt the coating of the electrical wiring.

Mr. Kawai used the lighter to melt the coating of the electrical wiring

in order to expose the electrical wiring on the inside.

He then, probably wore the robber boots

that were lying around on the floor of the deck,

and after wearing the flesh coloured rubber gloves on his hands

and insulating himself...

He electrocuted Mr. Yamazki and killed him.

He then removed the boots,

lying down,

and hid the rubber gloves in his pocket,

and pretended to be passed out.

How about it, Mr. Kawai, am I wrong somewhere?

Yamazaki...

Yamazaki tried to take over my company

by lending money at an unreasonably high amount of interest.

Not only that. As collateral for the money he lent me,

he insisted that I get myself an expensive life insurance policy

with him as the beneficiary.

If I didn't kill him, he would've killed me one day anyway.

Someday...

Mr. Mouri.

Thank you so much the other day.

If that incident was closed as an accidental case,

I would've had to take responsibility for negligence of duty

and close down my business.

It's all thanks to you, Mr. Mouri.

If the investigation was carried out only on the surface,

the case couldn't have been genuinely solved at all.

Just as expected of the renowned detective, Mr. Kogoro Mouri.

Absolutely! There is no case that I cannot solve!

Come on, Dad. You were probably just in good shape.

Yeah, as for being in good shape,

you're sure doing just as good as those fireworks up there.

Tamaya!
