Friendship, love and mystery.

We stick it out because we believe promises will be kept.

There's a strange mark on Ayumi and Genta.

The key to the case is in the car.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

On the way back from school in the rain,

Ayumi bumps into a serial killer on the run.

She didn't get to see his face

but the mark of, probably, the belongings of the culprit

that resembled the number "5"

was left on the palm of her hand.

And the same mark was also found on Genta's buttocks!

Don't tell me that...

This! It's this mark!

The key-shaped bloodstain

was on the sleeve of Ayumi's clothes.

This serves as proof that the culprit grabbed the key

with hands soiled with the blood of the victim and fled!

This means that the culprit will not show the police the key,

which he knows will display haematological response!

"Look for the Mark on the Buttocks (Part 2)"

"The Metropolitan Police Department, Beika Police Station"

Only three?

Are you serious, Inspector Megure?

Yes.

One that was stopped at the checkpoint

and two others that were driving around in the vicinity!

They're car owners who are nearby residents that have no alibi

and who are saying that they've lost their master keys.

At any rate,

I'm going to have the three people go over to you right now.

If you got a glimpse of the serial killer,

I'd like you to make a confirmation too!

Yes, sir! I understand!

The three suspects are on their way here right now!

Good!

It's as if we've already arrested the culprit!

Ayumi heard the culprit's voice.

So, he'll probably go pale when he sees her!

Yes, I'm sure!

I'll do my best!

I'm against it.

It the culprit is really among the three,

you meet him and he gets arrested, that's fine.

But what if he's acquitted because of lack of evidence?

The culprit's going to hold a grudge on you for putting him in a fix,

come after you and may take revenge on you one day!

Even more so if he's a serial killer who's killing people at random,

don't you think so?

You're taking your imagination too far, Haibara.

I'm trying to say don't go taking a reckless risk

when there isn't sufficient evidence yet!

But I'm the one who saw the culprit at the closest range,

so I may be able to tell who the culprit is

if you make them wear raincoats, right?

You can confirm that just looking at pictures too, right?

As for the voice, you can listen to the recorded voice.

There's no need to go any further

and leave a stronger impression on the culprit

than you already have.

Just as Haibara's pointing out,

it's too risky to meet the culprit directly.

But it's vexing to let the three suspects go off just like that

after questioning them too.

There's no guarantee that they'll be no more victims either.

Maybe it's better to just keep a distance

and peek in secretly for now, right?

Okay! This way...

Stop!

Please get out of the car one by one,

tell me your name and what you do.

Please also tell me where and what you

were doing at the time of the crime, around 14:00.

First, from you at the far left.

Geez.

I came here voluntarily

and you treat me like I'm the culprit.

"Hiroshi Enomoto (21)" -I'm Hiroshi Enomoto.

I'm a university student working part-time

at a sushi shop at Sanchome!

Did you buy this car with the money you made

from working part-time?

No. I leeched off my parents.

Is there a problem with that?

I see.

If through smoked glass,

they can't see us from their side.

And does the voice of that man sound familiar?

It sounds familiar and yet doesn't.

It's my day off today.

Last night my boss scolded me

so I was feeling bummed out

and decided to get it off my chest by going to the mountains,

when I was nabbed at the checkpoint.

You were going to the mountains to get it off your chest?

Well, the scenery in that area is nice

so I feel refreshed.

No wonder the body of the car is soiled and full of scratches.

Next! You, in the middle!

Oh, yes.

Hey! Don't you go banging my car around!

I'm sorry.

I'm not really good at driving

but I'm good at repairing.

Which means you work as...

Oh, yes.

"Naokazu Fukuchi (36)" -I work at an automobile repair factory.

My name is Naokazu Fukuchi.

The factory is closed today

but my car was not in the best condition,

so I was confined in the factory since morning repairing it.

But there are reports of you being seen driving around town.

I was just driving around the shopping arcade to check

if the car was totally repaired!

Is anything wrong with that?

No.

Next.

Yeah.

"Toshiaki Degawa (43)" -My name's Toshiaki Degawa.

I'm a locksmith and my shop's located on Ichome.

How wretched of me despite being a locksmith,

to lose the master key.

Your car, unlike the other two, is sure nice and shiny.

Yeah, I go get a car wash each time I go out.

This car is my heart and soul, you know?

Which means you went out this afternoon too?

I got a call saying that the client lost her house key

and wanted me to unlock the door.

But since she didn't explain her address very well,

I was going around in circles looking for the house.

However, I didn't get to see her at all.

She called again and say that her boyfriend who had a spare key came,

so that I didn't have to go.

Has anything dawned on you so far?

Nothing at all.

Besides, they're not shouting.

All three of them are about the same height and physique.

Hey, over there!

What're you whispering about?

Oh, well...

Hey.

Officer Takagi

I've got a little favor to ask you.

What is it?

What could it be?

You see...

I'll go see him, after all.

What?

If I go closer and take a look,

I may be able to figure out the culprit.

No! Didn't I just tell you that

if the culprit doesn't get arrested,

something terrible may happen to you.

But...

Not only you.

There's a possibility that the culprit would come

to take revenge on anyone who was involved with you too.

Although I know how you feel about wanting to punish the bad guy,

but to hold back your feelings no matter how strong

and keeping out of the picture also requires a lot of courage too.

Yes. This is the right thing to do

for yourself as well as for all the others.

That's the story.

What? You want me to call the forensic officer

and get a minus screwdriver?

Yup.

I think everything will clear up.

And we'll all find out who the big fat liar serial killer

that is resorting to cheap tricks to hide his crime is.

Yes, it's him.

Well, at any rate,

you're going to have to leave your cars

at the police station for a while.

There are a lot more things we'd like to check on.

Hey...

You got to be kidding.

I came here to Beika Police Station voluntarily.

Why are you taking things so far as to keep my car in police custody?

Please give us a convincing explanation too.

Why were we summoned here as suspects of a serial killer case?

If you called us in just because we don't have an alibi

during the time of the crime,

I'm sure there are a lot of other people too.

First of all, it's your car!

All of them are from the same brand and model.

Yeah.

Moreover, all three of you say you've lost your master key.

When the serial killer fled,

he dropped the car key of this car with the emblem of the brand on it.

We already have reports that the culprit picked the key up

with hands smeared with the blood of the victim.

We also know that he came back to the site of the crime to confirm

whether the police had a lead on him.

We also know based on the testimony of a witness

that the culprit is very likely a resident of this vicinity

who knows he'll be in hot water

once the police start checking on him.

The person who own this car model

have no alibi,

live nearby

and cannot show us your master key

because it is smeared with blood

are only three of you.

I told you I really just lost my key.

Well, a simple check by those forensic officers

will clear all of that in no time at all.

-Check? -What?

We're just going to check for luminol reactions.

Officer Takagi, please have them begin.

Yeah.

Please do as I told you over the phone then.

Yes, sir.

First, start from Mr. Enomoto's car on the far left.

Hey...

Don't tell me that you're going to search the inside of the car

for the master key?

Even if you're the police,

you couldn't possibly do something outrageous like that!

Don't worry. We won't check inside your car.

Hey, Conan?

What on earth are you going to check?

If I were the culprit,

I would've thrown the blood stained key away long time ago!

Silly. It's not the key that's being checked.

We're checking the keyhole of the door of the driver's seat side

that the culprit stuck the key in when he fled.

I see! Blood should be there too, right?

But even if blood were found there,

it would be a very small amount.

Will you really be able to make it out?

Of course.

Luminol reaction is very sensitive

and can detect the slightest amount of blood.

Yeah. The culprit went out all out as to think up a cheap trick

and lie in order to hide the fact.

A lie? Cheap trick?

Try and remember

what the three said about

what they were doing at the time of the crime.

Let's see.

Mr. Enomoto was headed for the mountains to take a drive.

Mr. Fukuchi drove around the shopping arcade

to check if his car was repaired.

And Mr. Degawa was going around looking for the house of the person

who said she lost the house keys.

Why does that make them liars?

Then, take a look!

The car of Mr. Degawa who says his car is his heart and soul

is sparkling clean.

Mr. Fukuchi who says he's a lousy driver

has his car parked really near the next car.

And the speed racer Mr. Enomoto's car

is full of scratches and soiled.

You understand, now, don't you?

Not at all!

Genta, how did you practice riding the bicycle?

I practiced together with mom

at a back road where not too many people were.

Because it'd be dangerous bumping into people.

Oh! I see!

Mr. Fukuchi is lying!

If he's not good at driving

he wouldn't even try driving through a shopping arcade

where there are a lot of people!

Besides at the time of the crime,

it was raining and his vision would be poorer than usual.

It's the worse course to try out a car

that you're not even sure is working right.

Moreover, Mr. Fukuchi parked his car completely parallel

to the car next to his.

That's only proof that he's an extremely good driver!

If he's not good, he's car would be a bit crooked.

Then, the culprit is Mr. Fukuchi and he's the liar?

Yes, he parked his car very close to the next car

to make checking the keyhole of the door difficult.

But, it's all over now.

Look, the car next to his was moved,

so the keyhole on the driver's seat side is in clear view.

I'm sure there'll be a response

if luminol is sprayed onto the keyhole.

A bluish-purple color should be emitted

when it chemically reacts to blood.

No reaction.

No way.

Really?

Hey.

Just what does this mean, Officer Takagi?

You said so confidently that this would specify the culprit.

Well, it was supposed to work out that way.

Excuse me, could you lend me a minus screwdriver?

A minus screwdriver?

Here you go.

Thank you.

So, are you satisfied now?

Since all three cars showed no reaction,

can we go now?

Now you know that we're not the serial killer, right?

Please calm down.

What's going on, Conan?

It's not like you said at all.

Where's Conan?

He went that way just now,

after taking a minus screwdriver from the forensic officer.

What?

This keyhole moves like a slime

when pushed from outside?

What?

I wonder what it is?

Oh, hey!

Hey, sonny!

The key cylinder is fixed in place with vinyl tape!

I see.

He changed it on the spur of the moment

with the cylinder of another car,

thinking that the police would check it out.

Which means that the real reason

why he parked his car really close to the next car is...

To hide this.

Unless you open the door this way and remove the cover,

you can't check how the key cylinder is on the inside.

Then, don't tell me that...

Conan had foreseen all this to begin with.

No. This key cylinder is really the one for this car!

I goofed when trying to set it up and broke it.

It's just a temporary measure until a replacement arrives.

Will you show us the key to this car, then?

As well as the car number that is carved into it!

You should know since you're an auto mechanic.

That there are numbers on the key cylinder

of the driver's seat side of the car.

If we compare the two,

we can tell whether it's the same key.

Or would you like us to spray luminol onto the key cylinder

of the ignition beside the steering wheel?

I'm sure blood reaction will be displayed,

because the key cylinder of the ignition is sealed

and cannot be changed in a short period of time.

Okay!

I'll show you the key number!

I'm sure the key is in the dashboard compartment.

Oh, hey!

Open the door, will you?

This guy confessed later that he did what he did

because he wanted public attention.

It seems he was just seeking stimulation in his mundane life.

However, since in this serial killer case,

there are no casualties...

No...

That doesn't redeem him at all.

It turned out that this stupid attention seeker

just jostled the area around the Beika Police Station a bit

and the case was closed.

I'm sure glad that the culprit was caught though!

We don't have to worry about Ayumi being pursued by the culprit anymore!

I don't mind being pursued!

Why?

Because I know Conan will protect me.

Hey...

Of course, I was counting on Mitsuhiko, Genta and Ai too!

I know I'd be totally fine!

Sorry.

I have something I have to do.

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye!

See you!

My, how nice of you.

To come visit me.

If I let time pass by,

I felt like I was going to change my mind, that's why.

So, you've made up your mind.

As to whether to accept the witness protection program or not.

Yes.

Of course.

Of course...

I'm declining.

It's probably true

that I'd be safe if I change my name and address

and become an entirely different person.

But I'd have to go over the same thing again anyway.

I'll be living a vicious circle of fear and hiding,

then becoming another person

when the danger of my identity being revealed comes around!

Besides, there is no guarantee that

I can completely trust you FBI agents.

And besides...

Although I know how you feel about wanting to punish the bad guy,

but keeping out of the picture also requires a lot of courage too.

But...

But I...

don't want to run!

I can't win just by running around!

I can never win!

I don't want to run.

So, you've decided against it after all.

You're not going to try to convince me otherwise?

Well...

Of course, I'm against your idea as an FBI agent but...

since I experienced

somebody coming after my life when I was still a child.

I'd like you to cherish how you feel right now!

Hang in there.

See you.

Geez.

It's like I'm watching you as a child.

You, who kept denying to accept the witness protection program.

And in the end, shouted defiantly to let you join the FBI

in exchange for accepting the program.

Wrong, James.

She seems to already have what I lacked back then.

Yes.

Something that is very dangerous

and capable of breeding disaster.

But yet a very warm thing that gives you courage.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Seal"

The next episode is the off-season mystery.

I'm scared! Mother!
