His name is Detective Conan!

"Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook"

"Oka High School"

Deduction is all about formula.

As long as I applied the right formula,

I can find the answer.

"Beika Park"

Just like I thought!

You know, I knew you were the one.

Now, this is the right answer.

"Aya Ueto and Shinichi, The Promise from 4 Years Ago"

"Kudo"

It's a beautiful spring day today.

And a young, pretty girls like us are dusting.

She is evil!

Because your mother-in-law makes you clean her house

while she's out for something! She is evil. She is!

Oh, god.

Please, you gotta stop talking about the wife and-mother-in-law thing!

I'm doing this because I wanted to do.

And also I never asked you to do it either!

Well, yeah.

Anyway, look at them.

They're all books!

It's "The Dark Baron: Night Baron"

Yusaku Kudo's books are around here?

"Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook"

It's "Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook".

"TV Drama, appearance: Aya Ueto" -I think...

It was on TV before, right?

Yeah, I know! It was a two-hour drama!

It's my dad's work in his early years.

It's kinda cheesy, especially if I read it now.

Look.

-Isn't she Aya Ueto? -Oh, that.

She and her manager actually came to talk with Shinichi's parents

because she was going to be starring for the first time.

Yeah, I think you told me that before.

When was it?

That was when I was 13 years old, so it was 4 years ago.

I was a fan of hers of Aya,

and Shinichi told me that she's coming to his house,

So I went up to Shinichi's house to get her autograph.

But Shinichi wasn't paying attention to her really.

He was actually playing with a soccer ball.

And I remember that

she had a serious look on her face when she looked at him.

So, I asked him what they were talking about.

And he said?

Nothing.

But, I'm kinda curious about what they were talking about.

Shinichi.

Maybe he was asking her out?

Sonoko! You!

How is that possible?

-Somebody's here! -Yeah.

"Kudo" -Yes?

Is Mr. Shinichi Kudo there?

Me?

A young girl?

Shinichi is not home right now.

Excuse me, who is this?

A young girl, huh?

My name is Ueto...

I'm Aya Ueto!

What?

Aya Ueto?

It's for real!

It's really Aya Ueto!

Do you remember me?

Yes, you are Ran Mouri.

You are Shinichi's friend from childhood, right?

Yeah!

She is my friend...

I'm Sonoko Suzuki!

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you too!

And he is Conan.

-Hi, there! -Hello.

Look. Somebody is getting shy!

Shut up!

So, when is Shinichi coming back?

We don't know that actually.

He never came back since he left for the investigation of a criminal case.

You came here to see Shinichi?

Is it about some investigation?

Yes, indeed. Is it possible for you to call him?

Well, it's always the answering machine when we call him.

But let me give a try.

Thank you.

He's not gonna answer because I'm here.

Hey! If it's about an investigation, why don't you ask Kogoro Mouri?

I don't think you should!

-Why not? -Because he has been having a major hangover this morning!

Man, he's helpless.

It's the answering machine again.

Is that so?

Then, what should I do?

Why don't you leave him a message?

Shinichi might call you back later. You never know, right?

You're right. Would you like to tell us what happened?

Okay.

There is an old lady named Fumie Koda in my neighborhood.

She's 80 years old and living alone.

She's actually a good friend of mine,

so I often go to her house on my day off.

And just like always, I went to her house this noon.

Grandma! It's Aya! I'm coming in.

Grandma?

I'm came to visit.

Grandma?

It's weird.

Where did she go?

She often leaves her house without locking the door,

and I thought she did it again.

So I waited for her a while, but...

But she didn't come back?

Right. I started worrying about her

So I went to a grocery store near the house.

And asked...

She just passed by a while ago.

So I asked her where she was going.

She said she's going to Beika-cho.

Beika-cho?

Yeah. She answered me and just left!

She had this serious look on her face

and she was acting strange as well.

I was kind of worried about her.

I was worried so I came to Beika-cho by taxi.

But I don't know why Grandma came to this town,

so I have no clue where to look for her.

Suddenly, I remembered about Shinichi.

It was 4 years ago when I met him.

And I just remembered, now he's a famous high school detective,

and he's also living in this town...

-That's why you visited here, right? -Right.

Also, he and I had a...

What?

No, it's nothing.

Do you know if she has a friend in Beika-cho?

No, I don't know.

Well then, I'll send a text message to Shinichi's cell-phone

about what happened today, just in case, okay?

What else do you know about this old lady?

What?

The more information you have, the closer you get to solving the case.

Shinichi used to say that.

Okay. What else...

Grandma lost her daughter who fell ill when she was young, I heard.

Lost her daughter?

It was half a year ago, that I heard about it from Grandma's best friend.

It was when Fumie was 40 years old, I remember.

She had a sick daughter, Ayako, who was only 17 years old.

Fumie was a single mother, so she worked and raised Ayako.

That day also, she was working from morning.

While she was away, Ayako's condition turned bad suddenly.

By the time Fumie got to the hospital room,

Ayako was already...

Fumie regretted the fact that she couldn't be with her daughter

at the moment of her death.

"Ayako Koda" -She blames herself for Ayako's death, I think.

I never knew that.

You know, Fumie never talks about this to anyone.

Actually, you look like Ayako somehow.

The name is similar too.

That must be why she took a special liking to you.

I'm home!

Sorry, it took me long. There were so many things to buy!

Welcome back!

Gotta keep it a secret, okay?

Okay.

Grandma was always smiling.

I never knew she went through so much before.

She was 17 years old, that's around our age.

It must have been hard for the old lady.

And as well as for her daughter.

If I remember correctly, her daughter loved classical music,

especially Mozart.

I'm not sure whether this old lady's daughter

has something to do with this case.

Maybe we need to see this case from a different angle.

The main power of the TV was on

when you went in to the living room, right?

You think Grandma was watching TV until she left the house?

Yes, I think so,

because the TV schedule in the newspaper was left open.

Was the tea left unfinished?

Then, maybe Grandma was impelled by some kind of sudden thought

while watching TV, and then left the house.

Do you know which channel it was?

Actually, I do know.

While I was waiting for Grandma...

Nichiuri TV.

Nichiuri TV. It was Nichiuri TV, right?

-Yes. -Conan?

I was just trying to find out which TV show she was watching.

You know, there's no newspaper in Shinichi's house.

So you're gonna call someone and ask, right?

-No! -What do you mean no?

What? You even can do it?

"Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook (Rerun)"

Hey! That's what we were talking about a while ago!

Is this TV drama, "Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook"?

They're airing a rerun of it.

-Yeah, you're right! -I didn't know that.

The main actor of the TV show didn't know that it was on TV?

Wait a sec.

I think the shooting of this TV drama was in Beika-cho.

Yeah. It was at Beika Station, Beika Park

and Shunichi Shitara Memorial House also.

Yeah! It was the one in the old western mansion, wasn't it?

Yes.

It was a musician's house 10 years ago, but since he passed away,

his wife who was also a pianist

made it the memorial house of her husband.

Aya, in that episode, you were attacked by the murderer,

and got locked in the basement in the mansion, right?

That's right!

But we only used the exterior of the mansion.

We actually used the set when we were shooting inside.

You did?

I got it!

I think I know why Grandma came to Beika-cho!

-Yeah? -Are you serious, Sonoko?

Yeah. The female high school detective Sonoko Suzuki's deduction is...

Always right!

Is she all right?

Okay, listen.

I think Grandma could not distinguish between

TV drama and reality.

-What? -What do you mean?

Perhaps, when she was looking at the TV listing in the newspaper,

she found Aya's name.

So she watched this TV drama, from the beginning of the show.

"Female High School Detective Yuki's Casebook"

However, she fell asleep in the middle of the show.

And then, when she woke up as the show approached the end.

On TV, Aya was being attacked by someone,

and got locked up in the basement of the mansion.

Because she just woke up, her brain wasn't functioning properly,

and she thought that it was happening for real.

Thus, she rushed out of her house, to save Aya.

That's why she came to Beika-cho!

Well, if so, then she wouldn't turn off the TV, would she?

-What? -It's clear that she turned off the TV.

That means, she knew that it was a TV program...

Shut up! Such a minor thing doesn't matter!

Here!

Anyway, Grandma should be in the memorial house.

She must be!

What do you think, Aya?

Man, only Sonoko can make a deduction like that.

But in fact, it is true that the old lady was watching the drama.

The reason she came to Beika-cho

should have something with the TV drama.

What was she going to do?

Guys, we should head down to the memorial house,

rather than stay here thinking!

That's right, let's go.

Yes, this old lady came here a while ago.

See? My deduction was right!

So, she's still inside?

No. She left here about 10 minutes ago.

-She left? -We just missed her.

Maybe she went out to look for you Aya because you weren't here.

Do you remember how did granny look?

Right when she came,

she was looking up at the window of the 2nd floor for a while.

And then she said to me "May I come in?", so I said "yes".

It doesn't sound like she came here to save Aya.

Then, what was it?

She left here 10 minutes ago, so she may be around here still!

Do you know which way she went?

Yes, she went that way.

I'll go and look for her!

Wait! We should go with her!

Yeah!

How did she look when she left here?

Actually, she looked as if she saw something unbelievable.

I talked to her but she didn't respond and just left.

Thank you!

Wait a sec.

Maybe there's some clue left in this house.

May I go in?

Sure.

"Music Room"

That's...

the old ward of Beika Hospital.

Her daughter loved classical music, especially Mozart.

Maybe...

Ayako, I'm sorry.

I'll be there soon.

It's no good!

Granny! Granny!

Darn!

Maybe Fumie is on her way home.

Yeah.

It's Shinichi!

-Hello? -Ran!

I got your message. Where are you right now?

I'm right in front of the Shitara Memorial House.

Okay, you need to ask Mrs. Shitara to play Mozart right now, got that?

Mozart?

-Yeah! You need to hurry! -I'll go!

Sonoko just went...

Okay, now I need to talk to Aya!

What?

It's Shinichi.

Excuse me. Hello, it's Aya.

Aya, Fumie is right now in front of the old ward of Beika Hospital!

Beika Hospital?

You need to go there!

Fumie is trying to kill herself!

You have to make it, please!

Aya, the Beika Hospital was where Fumie's daughter

was staying at before she died.

Perhaps, she heard Mozart

that Mr. Shitara was playing in his house.

And that melody was the only thing that could ease Ayako's mind.

Fumie used to see Shitara's residence from the window of the Ayako's ward.

And it was the same scene that she saw on the TV drama today.

Fumie was surprised and panicked.

So she got out of her house and headed to Beika-cho.

And there, she saw the old ward of Beika Hospital

from the Shitara Memorial House.

Perhaps, she couldn't believe what she actually saw there.

Because the hospital ward had been kept just like it used to be.

This way!

Fumie left the memorial house and headed to the old hospital.

As she stood in front of the old hospital ward,

the painful past of having lost her daughter came back to her.

She thinks that it was her fault that Ayako died.

And now, she is trying to die, to see her daughter in heaven.

There is only one person who can stop her.

Aya, it is you!

Only me?

Grandma!

Ayako?

There is only one person who can stop her.

Aya, it is you!

Mom, I lived only 17 years, but I was happy.

What?

I was really happy because you were my mom.

I just wanted to tell you that.

Ayako.

So, please don't die now, Mom.

You have to live for me, please.

Okay.

I will, Ayako. Thank you.

Grandma!

Aya?

Grandma.

Ayako came here to see me, just now.

She came and forgave me.

That's good, Grandma.

That's good.

Ran!

You found her.

Shinichi,

I think I fulfilled the promise that we made 4 years ago.

Yeah. I think I fulfilled my promise as well.

You are good at soccer.

You are gonna be a soccer player?

No, I will be a detective.

Detective?

Like Holmes.

You mean Sherlock Holmes?

Yeah, but a high school detective, before that.

It's not nothing like childish play.

A real detective's what I'm gonna be.

Do you wanna make a promise?

Next time we see each other, maybe 4 or 5 years later.

I will be a real actress,

and you will be a real detective.

Yeah, sure thing.

Anyway, how did you grasp the situation only by the text message?

Well, deduction is about formula.

I get the answer as long as I applied the right formula.

All right, take care.

Yeah, you too.

Ran!

Conan!

No wonder it took forever to find you guys!

Hey, you found the granny.

Kid, what are you doing there?

You can't come up here, can you?

It's so funny.

You!

Ran, Sonoko, thank you.

And you too, Conan. Thank you!

You're welcome!

Now, Grandma, shall we go home?

Okay.

Here.

Come and see us anytime.

Yes.

-Good bye. -Good bye.

Conan! Take care!

Bye-bye!

It was fantastic acting!

So the case ended happily.

But ever since that day...

God, not again.

What was that promise you guys made 4 years ago? Tell me, Shinichi!

There will be no call to Ran for a while.
