Friendship, love and mystery.

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

A nice spot for the trolley and fishing.

Pierce through an unthinkable case and disclose the truth.

He sees through the one and only truth.

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

His name is Detective Conan!

Invited by Sonoko,

we all come to a bass fishing contest held at Lake Okutani.

There, we meet the candidates for championship

Ms. Saori Ayukawa

and Mr. Takuya Masubuchi

as well as freelance writer, Mr. Toshihiko Funaki.

The competition for the first day ends.

It's a bit of a concern that

that night, Mr. Funaki and Mr. Masubuchi get into an argument,

and sure enough, the following day,

very near the place we were fishing,

Mr. Funaki is found dead from a strong impact to his head.

I wonder if that place is cursed.

Cursed?

Mr. Mizui, what do you mean?

The thing is somebody died there 6 months ago too.

Who is the person that died?

A person called Mr. Kanie,

who was also good friends with Ms. Ayukawa and Mr. Masubuchi.

A person died there a half a year ago.

This is no coincidence.

The murderer is probably one of the two!

"Fishing Tournament Tragedy (Part 2)"

Okay, let's start with you, Mr. Masubuchi.

Please tell me where you were between 10:00 to 10:30.

Between 10:00 to 10:30...

I was under the steel bridge at that time.

The steel bridge? On which side of the steel bridge?

On the side where the road is!

What, the side where the road is?

Yes, that's right!

The steel bridge is where Mr. Funaki was killed!

He was found in a grassy area about 100m upstream.

It seems so.

I was surprised at the great number of police there.

I think that he would've had to walk behind you

to get to that grassy area.

Didn't you notice Mr. Funaki walk behind you?

No, I didn't because I was absorbed in fishing.

Is there anyone who can testify that

you didn't move from under the steel bridge?

No.

No alibi, eh?

Mr. Masubuchi was near there?

May I...

What is it?

May I go now?

Oh, yeah. I may ask you some questions again later.

Sonoko.

Nobody heard any scream.

The rock where he hit his head can't be found.

Conan, are you going to quit fishing already?

I don't feel up to it anymore.

But, if you guys want to, go ahead.

Yes. Yeah. Okay.

Inspector, we checked the alibis of everyone,

from those who brought their own boats to those who rented boats,

but nobody seems to have gone near the place the corpse was found!

So, the boat wasn't used.

Which means it's somebody that was alone

on the left shore of the lake.

Inspector,

I went to the inn that the victim stayed over at last night,

and I was bothered by something that one of the guests said.

Bothered?

Yes, he says that the victim and Masubuchi

were arguing in the bath room.

I see!

Okay!

Well, you seemed to have some sort of conflict with Mr. Funaki.

Hey, kids, it's not for you to listen!

We're fishing.

Yes, we figured if the candidate for champion Mr. Masubuchi

picked this place to fish,

we may be able to get a large catch here too.

Yeah, something as big as a whale.

If we fish something that large, we won't be able to take it home

You guys...

If we get to fish something like that,

we'll be able to boast about it in school.

We can boast about it!

All talk, you kids, I tell you.

So, how about it, Mr. Masubuchi?

Silence could work against you,

because a lot of people have seen you and Mr. Funaki arguing.

Mr. Funaki...

Mr. Funaki?

Mr. Funaki said something ridiculous,

that's why I couldn't help shouting at him.

Something ridiculous?

Well...

What is it?

He insisted that I liked Ms. Ayukawa

and that he'd play go-between for us.

That's why I sort of blew my top!

Oh, is that all?

Yes, Mr. Funaki said that

Ms. Ayukawa would never refuse any offer from him.

Ms. Ayukawa would never refuse any offer from Mr. Funaki?

Come to think of it, even last night,

she followed Mr. Funaki despite looking very unwilling.

A person also died here 6 months ago.

Conan, what are we going to do in a place like this?

The police already came here and searched,

so I'm sure we won't find anything here either.

Let's go back.

Mitsuhiko's right.

The murder weapon wasn't here.

Moreover, we didn't even hear Mr. Funaki scream.

Trolley train?

The smell of kerosene.

The stain on the vest.

I get it!

Genta! Mitsuhiko! Let's trace these tracks!

What?

Mr. Funaki wasn't killed here!

The place where Mr. Funaki was killed is somewhere along the tracks!

Let's go!

How far are we going to go? There's nothing.

We're going to reach Okutani Station soon.

I'm sure we'll find something.

I'm starving.

Isn't that Mr. Funaki's?

The actual murder site is here! But how?

Excuse me,

did anybody come on this bridge between 10:00 to 10:30?

No.

What about a camera man?

Yeah, at about 9:50, he came from the direction of the dam,

and went down the steps that you all just came up.

Did anyone cross this bridge after that?

Not one person until the police cars came

and this place got boisterous.

Oh.

Early in the morning,

Ms. Ayukawa came and went down the steps, though.

Ms. Ayukawa did?

Yes, at about 7:30, I think it was.

She came back after about 10 minutes though.

So, Ms. Ayukawa did come after all.

But how?

Conan, I just remembered, we gotta return the boat.

Genta, you said that

you saw Ms. Ayukawa go up opposite Kutanisuji,

but which side of the lake was she on?

Let's see.

She was on the left when viewed from the lake,

so maybe this side?

After climbing back up from this side,

in order to throw a stone at Mr. Funaki

from right under the bridge that is opposite the bridge,

she would have to cross this bridge once.

But the guard says nobody crossed.

But, if he was killed here,

why was his body found where it was?

How was it carried there?

He fell into the lake and naturally drifted to the shore there,

where he came to and climbed up. He then passed away.

No, Mr. Funaki's body was not wet,

and he wasn't using a boat.

It's unnatural that his body was where it was after all.

But, I'm certain that he was killed here!

Conan.

We're going to be charge extension fee

if we don't return the boat.

What method was used?

-Conan, the boat. -Yeah, I know.

Are we going to ride it to the boat house?

-I guess so. -All right.

Genta, shall we throw this away?

What's that?

We picked it up.

Where?

Around the place where Kutanisuji merges with the main stream.

Oh! That handkerchief!

What's up?

-That handkerchief is Ms. Ayukawa's. -What?

I see.

I got it!

The winner for the contest

is Mr. Takuya Masubuchi with a total of 30500 grams!

Ms. Sonoko Suzuki will present

the championship trophy on behalf of the chairman.

Please give her a big hand everyone.

Any comments?

I was lucky to have been able to fish at a good spot.

I'll prepare for the next tournament and do my best again.

If you're the killer, I promise I'll find evidence to nail you.

The winner of 2nd place

is Ms. Saori Ayukawa with a total of 22680 grams.

Anything to say?

I was hoping for two consecutive wins

but unfortunately I've lost to Mr. Masubuchi.

I would like to take that big cup home with me next year.

Let's give the two winners a big hand once again!

We would like to conclude

the 17th Suzuki Cup Lake Okutani Tournament.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all so very much.

She's doing the same thing as the Sleeping Kogoro!

-What? -Please wait, Ms. Ayukawa.

I still have something I'd like you to tell everyone.

I'd like you to tell us why you killed Mr. Funaki.

What? You mean Ms. Ayukawa...

I'd like to know why you did what you did at this tournament

where I'm serving on behalf of the chairman.

Come on, please tell us!

Just what do you think you're saying?

She was in Kutanisuji on the opposite side of the lake back then.

That's not the point.

Because Mr. Funaki was not killed where he was found.

What? That can't be!

Conan, please show her the stuff.

Okay!

We found this camera beside the rail tracks of Kutanisuji.

This is Mr. Funaki's camera.

He took pictures for us yesterday so I remember!

What?

The camera of the victim was found in Kutanisuji.

But, why was it in a place like that?

We found it under Kutani Bridge!

And these are the pictures that were printed from the film

that was in the camera!

-Hey! -Oh, yes, sir.

There's a picture of a trolley there, right?

The place that picture was taken from.

The place where the leg of Kutani Bridge touches the shore,

a very small flat area.

I asked a railroad buff and found that

the place is famous for getting the best shots of the trolley.

Ms. Ayukawa, I hear that you were invited by Mr. Funaki

to have a drink with him last night.

At that time, you gave him information of that place

where he could take pictures of the trolley

for a railroad buff magazine.

But Mr. Funaki was found 3km away, opposite the steel bridge.

I just said that's not the point.

Inspector Yokomizo,

didn't you notice the black stain that was on the vest

that Mr. Funaki was wearing?

Now that you mentioned it, the forensic officers reported so.

The substance seems to have been oil and soot.

Yes, it's the exhaust of the diesel steam engine

that pulls the trolley along.

Exhaust?

Mr. Funaki moved from under Kutani Bridge to the place he was found

on the roof of the trolley.

Carried on the roof?

You threw a rock at Mr. Funaki

who was waiting for a chance to take a picture of the trolley.

The rock hit him on the head

and he fell on top the roof of the trolley from the impact of being hit.

Then carried on the roof of the trolley,

he crosses the bridge, until the sharp curve

where he is flung off the roof

and his body thrown to the place where it was found.

Such a coincidence exists?

It's no coincidence.

There is a train that leaves Lake Okutani Station at 10:50.

Ms. Ayukawa calculated it so that

Mr. Funaki would fall on the roof of that train and killed him.

Then, she knew ahead of time

that the body would drop where it did too?

It's most likely.

No way. No matter how much he was off his guard,

that Funaki would never let Saori kill him that easily.

If she dropped something,

be it a rock or something from on top the bridge,

the guard at the station at the foot of the bridge

would've seen it.

I confirmed with the security guard,

and he said that no one crossed the bridge between 10:00 to 10:30.

If so, Saori couldn't have committed the crime.

It would look to be so for everybody.

But, this is a carefully planned murder committed by Saori.

It can't be.

Because she told me that

she was in Kutanisuji, but opposite the tracks.

That's right, isn't it, Saori?

Yes.

But at around 7:30 in the morning,

the security guard told me that he saw

Ms. Ayukawa go down the steps at the foot of that bridge.

Her going there at that time

has nothing to do with the murder, does it?

Conan.

Yes!

What's this? It's just a plain wooden board.

That is a board that Genta and Mitsuhiko

who were on the boat picked up.

They found it where Kutanisuji merges with the main stream.

Ms. Ayukawa used that board.

How?

Ms. Ayukawa who went there at 7:30

placed that board

right above the place that Mr. Funaki would be standing.

Half of it was suspended in air and balanced very precisely

so it wouldn't fall over.

She then placed a rock on the board.

At 10:07,

Ms. Ayukawa appears at the pedestal opposite the bridge

and threw a rock towards Mr. Funaki

who was taking pictures of the trolley.

That's just your imagination.

Do you have evidence to prove that it's a fact?

Mr. Masubuchi, didn't you think it strange that

Ms. Ayukawa was going to Kutanisuji?

I hear that Kutanisuji is not a good fishing spot.

Why did Ms. Aukawa who was aiming for championship go there?

Besides, the handkerchief that is attached to the tip of that line

is Ms. Ayukawa's.

You can find handkerchiefs like that anywhere.

Please check that handkerchief.

You should get luminol reaction from it.

There are no blood stains on it!

Ms. Ayukawa, when Ayumi hurt herself yesterday,

you used that handkerchief, didn't you?

A slight amount of Ayumi's blood should've rubbed off

on the handkerchief back then.

Of course there is no blood stain anywhere on it now.

But, Ms. Ayukawa,

do you know that once a handkerchief is stained with blood,

no matter how clean you wash it,

there will be luminol reaction.

How long has it been

since you washed Ayumi's wound for her with it?

Ms. Ayukawa! Why did you kill Mr. Funaki?

He's been blackmailing me since 6 months ago.

Saori.

6 months ago, a man called Mr. Kanie

was found dead in the same place that Mr. Funaki was found.

Mr. Funaki was probably blackmailing you

because of something to do with that incident, wasn't he?

I had no intention of killing Mr. Kanie.

Which means you killed that guy called Kanie?

We were walking along Kutanisuji.

I have no intention of getting married for a while yet.

So, you like Masubuchi after all, don't you?

How about it? Please tell me straight!

Saori.

Mr. Funaki saw what happened.

And he blackmailed you.

Is that it?

I'll keep it quiet to the police, but for doing that...

I'm in a pinch right now,

could you lend me about 200 thousand yen?

This new model camera cost me close to 1 million yen so...

You know what I mean.

I paid him three times up to now, a total of 7 million yen.

Then about a half month ago.

I hear you signed a contract as a Pacific Sports Advisor!

How much was the contract fee?

It's none of your business.

Oh, well. Please give me 10 million yen.

You know what will happen if you refuse, don't you?

Since he told me then, that he wanted to take a picture of the trolley,

I figured if I showed him where it is,

so he would surely take pictures under that bridge.

As long as the timing is right,

the corpse would fall on the roof of the trolley

and carried to the same place where Mr. Kanie's body was found.

That's what you thought, is that right?

I figured if things went on as is,

I would be blackmailed all my life by that guy.

Then everything ahead of me went black.

I'm really sorry that I spoiled your important tournament.

More than for me,

I think this contest was more important for you, right?

I'm sorry, Father.

Ms. Ayukawa, I'd like to hear about everything in more detail

so please come with us to the station.

Yes, sir.

Saori.

I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes.

Saori.

Didn't you think it was fantastic?

Sonoko's deduction.

You can say that again!

Really, when did you check all those things out?

Well, you see. I've got my ways.

It's a cinch for me.

I wonder if I did something so fantastic.

What do you mean you got your ways?

By the way, how'd you guys do?

Did you at least catch one fish?

Well, you see...

Catching big fish is more difficult then solving a case!

Next time I come, I swear I'll catch a big one.

Next Conan's Hint:

"Mole"

The stage for the next episode will be Atami.

-Hot spring. -Sweet cake.

-Eel over rice. -No, that's not it.
