Original subtitles

The rhythm of the wind sharpens the skill of deduction.

Alibis and tricks are unraveled.

Is Tokyo a weak point for the detective of the West?

His life is at stake and are forced to send out an SOS!

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Is it here, Kazuha?

No. It's not there, Heiji.

More to the left.

Left?

Is it around here?

It hurts!

Where do you stick it at, Heiji?

I told you it's to the left.

You fool! Keep your voice down.

They will hear us.

Darn it.

The safety pin went into the slit in the floor.

You're so clumsy!

You can't get rid of this cuff without it.

Don't you have anything else? Like a wire?

No, that's the only thing I got.

Darn it.

Well, maybe it's better if we try solve this cipher.

They said if we solve it, they'd release us.

That's right!

If you want to go out and see the sun,

solve it quickly or...

Mr. Kusukawa?

You will be as cold as he is.

Heiji.

Don't worry.

They don't know...

that we have him.

Who do you mean by him?

Yes.

I'm sure of it.

I'm sure he will find us.

"Heiji Hattori No Way Out (Part 1)"

"Mouri Detective Agency"

They're late.

Heiji and Kazuha.

Yes.

The date was at 1:00 pm, but it's 2:00 pm already.

I wonder if anything happened.

Then, why don't you call them?

They carry a cell phone, don't they?

I called them, but it seems to be switched off.

They probably forgot, and are sleeping at home.

I called Heiji's mom,

and she said they took the 8:00 am plane right on time.

8:00 am?

They sure took such an early flight to arrive here in the afternoon.

I just remembered. They did say that they want to visit someone.

The guy worked for the Police Detective Toyama who is Kazuha's father.

Now, he's working for a private detective agency here in Tokyo.

His name is Mr. Kusukawa, and it seems that they're going to meet him.

Could he be Mr. Kusukawa at the Haido Detective Agency?

Huh? Do you know him?

Yes.

Horse racing, motorboat racing, bicycle racing...

He loves to gamble.

Say, why did Heiji and Kazuha go meet him?

He sent Kazuha's father a letter

saying he has an important matter to talk to him about,

but he hasn't called since.

So, Kazuha's father got worried

and asked them to go see how he's doing.

Maybe they got busy talking about their father,

and forgot about the time.

I wonder.

Well, I'll try call him up.

"Haido Detective Agency"

Yes, this is Haido Detective Agency.

Mr. Mouri, how are you?

Huh? Kusukawa?

We haven't been able to get in touch with him for a couple of days now.

He said he was after a big case,

so I suppose he is staking up somewhere.

A big case?

Do you in a need of one more player to play mahjong?

No. We would like to know

if two high school kids called on Mr. Kusukawa.

Yes. They were here at about 10 am.

A boy and a girl from Osaka, aren't they?

I told them Kusukawa is not in the office,

so after I gave them his address, they left.

May I have that address, please?

Haido street, 4...

Arihato Apartment.

Give me a break.

The hosts shouldn't have to search for the guests.

What's the problem? You're not busy anyway.

It's not okay.

I hope it stops raining soon.

You're going on an excursion tomorrow, aren't you?

Yes.

Isn't that the Arihito Apartment?

Let me see. Mr. Kusukawa's room number

is number 202.

Room 202.

Room 202...

Huh?

"I'll be back by noon.

Deliver any packages to the landlord, please."

Hey, hey.

It's way past noon already.

He is always behind time.

Maybe he was here when both of them came by,

and they went out together for a soda or something.

With the intention to come back by noon.

I saw a family restaurant on this way.

But it looks like Heiji kept waiting for a long time.

Look there, to the right of the paper.

You can see a set mark.

Doesn't it look like a mark of the cap Heiji usually wears?

You're right.

This is the mark of Heiji's cap!

He must have put his cap on backwards

and leaned against the door while waiting for quite some time.

How do you know he kept waiting for a long time?

There's another mark of his cap left in a place just my height.

This means he got tired of waiting

and squatted down while leaning against the door, doesn't it?

It seems so.

A Scotch tape?

I know what this is!

It's a mark to detect if someone tried to sneak into your house.

Yes.

You see them in detective or spy movies.

But the tape is practically peeled off.

It shows that someone's snuck in here already, doesn't it?

It's possible that Mr. Kusukawa noticed it,

got frightened, and rushed to the police.

But it seems this tape was peeled off a long time ago.

A lot of dust is on the sticky part.

Hey, hey.

Then, when did he put this paper on the door?

Mr. Kusukawa intends to come back soon,

but for some reason he couldn't.

And while he was away, somebody broke into this room.

What shall we do, Dad?

What do you mean that?

Wait a second, Conan!

It's not locked.

It's like as I said, somebody's snucked into this room already.

Hey...

The lock shows it was not forced open,

and the room doesn't seem to be ransacked.

Did he just forget to lock the door?

And that tape, too.

I guess he forgot he put it there and opened the door himself.

Huh? What's this?

What?

Look here.

He put something on the desk

and rubbed it over with a pencil which left the traces.

What did you say?

Can it be this memo note?

There, the size just fits.

I see.

He rubbed over the traces the pencil made on the paper underneath.

That Osaka boy must've been worried since Kusukawa was missing,

and the door was unlocked.

To figure out where Kusukawa was, that boy took the note with him.

Well, the note that shows the letters are with him now.

So, we don't know what's written on it.

But I can see the letters if I rub it with a pencil.

Of course!

The pencil point pressed hard enough on the paper

that it left traces on the paper two sheets below.

Let's see. Itou of Kenbashi street?

There's a phone number on it, too.

But I can't make it out.

Could Hattori and Kazuha have gone there?

Then, let's go there and have a look.

We can ask for directions at a police box to help us find the house.

A couple of high school kids that speak in Kansai accent?

They aren't here.

By the way, are you a police detective or something?

Oh, no. We are just looking for them.

Thank you very much.

Well, I didn't see any high school kids with a Kansai accent around here.

Aren't you Mr. Kogoro Mouri, the sleeping detective?

A high school boy from Osaka?

Isn't the high school baseball tournament in Osaka is over?

I don't know them or anybody else!

Why do you keep picking on me?

A boy and a girl with a Kansai accent?

They haven't been here.

I thought so.

I'm sorry I couldn't be of any help.

That pin on your lapel.

It's an attorney's lapel pin.

Excuse me, but are you Miss Misari Itou who is an attorney?

Seriously?

"Misari Itou" -Yes, I am.

My mother told me about you.

You're the admirable attorney

who accepts all requests for a modest fee.

Then, is your mother also an attorney?

-Yes, ma'am. -You are a blabbermouth, Ran.

Well, do you happen to know a suspicious Itou residence around here?

Suspicious?

Oh, that reminds me.

There's a building that bears a nameplate Itou.

It's right behind the elementary school on the 5th street.

Children have been saying that there's two men who looked like hobos

often come and go there at night.

That's it!

That's where they went, and so are we!

What? Are we?

Sure we are.

Let's go.

Thank you very much, ma'am.

You're welcome.

Okay, okay.

Let's go in, shall we?

You must be hungry.

But could you wait for a little while, dear?

Your mom is busy right now.

After I finish my work,

I'll feed you. Okay, dear?

Good kitty.

Mommy has to go up to them

and let them know where they stand.

I've got to see to it that they feel it to the bones.

Oh, my. What a sight to see.

What happened to your handsome face? You're losing it.

This brat tried to shout,

and I caught him in time.

Heiji, are you alright?

Don't give in.

You surprise me, boy.

You're an acquaintance of the Kogoro Mouri.

You really know a lot of people,

high school kid detective, Heiji Hattori, don't you?

You've been invited here because of that great ability of yours.

So, do solve the cipher for us, will you?

That cipher that this stinking rat of a detective thought up.

What a laugh. But I'm sure you agree with me, too.

This guy had the nerve to preach me.

He asked me to stop instructing people how to evade taxes illegally.

He had the tape to prove my doings,

but didn't want to publicize it.

The tape is in the safe deposit box in Tohto Bank

with a seven digit number as an ID.

Unfortunately, that's all he could tell us before he stopped breathing.

And that's when we got a call from this boy.

Excuse me.

I couldn't hear you very well because I have a ringing in my ear.

Give it a second thought, and tell me one more time.

Who the stinking rat really is?

Heiji!

Don't get funny, boy.

So, you haven't learned your lesson well enough.

Scrape his ears off, so he can hear better.

Heiji!

Stop it, please!

Darn it.

Why are there so many visitors today?

It's that little kid.

Hello, little one. What's the matter?

You forgot something?

No, ma'am.

I came back here because something bothers me.

Kudo!

What bothers you, dear little one?

The footprints of shoes.

There are so many wet shoe marks,

so I was wondering where all those people are in the house.

There were callers just a while ago.

We talked in the hall and they left soon after.

So, right now I'm alone in this house.

-Then, those prints are strange, aren't they? -Huh?

There are all marks for going in, but none for going out.

Why?

That's right. They are my footprints.

They stuck a gun at me in the hall.

I was handcuffed, then brought straight into this attic

and was confined.

This is the footprint of my sneakers for jogging.

They're yours?

Yes.

I washed the mud off, and I'm drying the shoes in the bathroom.

That's why you don't see them here.

Conan!

What are you doing there?

You disappeared so suddenly, so we were worried about you.

They're looking for you, dear.

You have to go find both of your friends, don't you?

Do you want to get killed right now?

What's that sound?

It came from upstairs.

Well...

You said you are alone in the house, didn't you?

I'll go upstairs and take a look.

It may be a burglar!

It's the cat I saw a while ago.

Oh, my. Naughty kitty.

You shouldn't drop things down the stairs.

She is very naughty.

She drops things and makes them go rolling down so often.

She must've made that sound.

I have to go out now.

But if you insist,

I can go with you and help you find the burglar.

Come, let's go upstairs.

Putting on a kind front and try to deceive him.

But Kudo won't fall for it, you fool.

Why don't you come on up, dear detective?

I think I'll go home!

Huh?

Oh, really?

You don't have to worry about me, feel free to come up.

No, it's not that.

So long, ma'am.

Don't so long me. Hey, hey!

So long, little one.

He's gone I suppose.

He sure scared me.

Sorry, guys.

You expected them to come back, but only a little kid did, right?

Oh, no. What do you think you're doing?

He's really going home!

He must have his reasons.

Look, he's thinking something over.

Take a good look at him, fool.

He's being held tightly in her arms.

Although he's a bit ashamed, but he's glad at the same time.

You can tell from his look. What a disgusting face.

In her arms? I'm talking about Mr. Kogoro Mouri.

The old man is probably listening to the horse races live on the radio.

Now, leading by three to four lengths!

Good, keep on leading to the finish!

Looks like we have no choice,

but to break this glass and make them notice us.

What are you trying to do, you brats?

Gosh.

This is becoming tiresome.

Now, it's time for your homework.

You'd better make the most of your brain.

You're the famous high school detective in Osaka.

It should be easier for you than your math, right?

This is a simple cipher to you.

Get to your work.

And be sure to solve it by sundown,

if you don't want end up like him.

You want to stay on this side of the world, don't you?

What's the hurry?

Why don't we take time, relax and solve it?

Or is there anything to worry about tomorrow?

Yes, there sure is.

He told us that the same cipher will be delivered

to his detective agency tomorrow by the delivery service.

He attached a letter that has a copy of the cipher

which is for the seven digit ID number to the Tohto Bank safe deposit box.

He was such an idiot.

He assumed he was safe because of that arrangement,

and he was arrogant enough to tell me

that he wouldn't say anything about it

if I stop giving instructions on illegal tax evasion.

I'm sure he was going to blackmail me

and use the money for gambling that he loved so much.

-Gambling? -Oh, yes.

I remember Dad told me.

Mr. Kusukawa is known for loving to gambling.

Why didn't you tell me that before?

What? Did you find anything already?

Yes. Give me a little more time and leave me alone,

I think I can solve it.

Good for you.

Then, we'll have tea downstairs and will wait for you.

So, you better make full use of your brain to solve it.

And don't even think of running away from us.

Sure. Wait for us without expecting anything from us.

It's alright now, Mr. Kusukawa.

What?

You're still alive, aren't you?

The floor dust underneath your nose just flew off.

Just as expected of the son of the Director of Police Headquarters.

I really was out of cold until just now.

You'd better keep pretending you're dead.

If they find you alive,

they'll stick a gun at us and try to make you talk.

The answer to this cipher is just like you.

Just like him?

You mean you found the answer to the cipher, Heiji?

Yes, I did. The combination is easy to remember for a gambling fan.

By the way, Mr. Kusukawa,

is this the only copy of the cipher?

It is.

They didn't make any copy of it.

Good for us.

Just great for the gamble we're about to take.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Dice"

Heiji, you finished Part 1 with ease.

Can you do it alone?

He's not with us now, so I say, sure I can.

And I say, don't expect me to help you.
