Yeah! I'm hungry, Dad.
Oh, is it this late already? Let's eat somewhere.
Then let's eat there! Are you insane?! It'd cost an arm and a leg to eat sushi in Ginza! Thank you! Come again! Tonight's the night for drinking! Please take your medicine, sir.
Your heart might act up again if you don't.
I know, I know! You sound like my wife! It looks like he's the president of a company Yeah, I've seen him before in some magazines Oh, yeah! He's Mr.
Okida, president of Bigwood! Bigwood? The software company? Today's contract sure was big! And it's all thanks to the software you gave me a year ago! I really must thank you! Wait! You dropped this! Thanks, little boy! Tokito! Why the hell weren't you paying attention?! Sorry! I apologize, sir! I have to thank you in some way.
What would you like, little boy? Pardon my rudeness, but aren't you Mr.
Okida of Bigwood? This is who I am! Private investigator Kogoro Mouri Yes! We don't need anything in return.
Just let me know if you ever need my services! Certainly! Well, I must be going now.
Take care! A private investigator, huh? I'm going to drink like a fish tonight! "Okida" Mouri Detective Agency.
Oh, Inspector Megure! Good morning! Mr.
Okida's dead?! So Inspector Megure saw your business card in Mr.
Okida's suit pocket and— Yeah, and then he called just to be safe.
Say, if the Inspector is there, does that mean someone killed him? Sometimes the police investigate unnatural deaths too.
Mr.
Okida was an important person, after all.
Wait, you were with Mr.
Okida last night I'm Miura, his secretary! Sir! It opened by itself! How did you do that? That was amazing! The computer checked my fingerprints and then opened the door.
Computer? This is an ultramodern house.
Nearly everything inside it is controlled by computer.
It's cool in here! The air conditioning is programmed to always keep the place at the most pleasant temperature 24 hours a day.
Oh, Mouri-kun! Thanks for coming! No problem! What's this? Sorry.
I told them to stay home, but We saw Okida-san last night too! Inspector Megure.
This is his secretary, Miura-san.
Thank you for coming.
Mr.
Tokito here discovered the body.
He came to pick up Mr.
Okida at 8:00, but he never came out, so he grew suspicious and came inside, only to find him cold in his bed, with his pajamas still on.
What was the cause of death? We can't say for sure without a proper autopsy, but it was probably a sudden death due to a heart attack.
A sudden death?! According to his doctor, he's always had heart problems On top of that, I'm told he drank a lot of alcohol last night.
Yesterday was special, as he had gotten an important contract.
His wife said no alcohol, but Where is his wife, anyway? She left with their daughter on an overseas trip yesterday evening.
Last night, he went to a number of buyers' clubs, and when he came home, he was so drunk he couldn't walk.
So I took him to his bedroom and put him to bed.
The estimated time of death was around 2:00 AM.
I'm asking just to be sure, but where were you then? I returned to my apartment after 1:00.
At around 2:00 I bought dinner at a nearby convenience store.
I dropped an egg at the register, so I'm sure the cashier can vouch for me.
How cute! It's a Himalayan! That's Aslan.
It's the daughter's cat.
He seems hungry.
I'll go feed him.
Inspector.
I'd like to see the body for myself.
That's fine, but you two can't come in.
I'd pass even if you told me to look! I see No exterior injuries, and no sign of drugs? But why was he sweating so much? Look how damp he is.
The sheet too! For someone who died while sweating, there's too much here! When did you get in here?! The AC in this house is computer-controlled so that the temperature is always nice, right? So then why? You were told to stay out! Get out! Huh? The flowers are wilted.
The flower store receipt It's from yesterday.
His wife probably bought them before leaving It's been less than a day.
Why are they so wilted? The chocolate melted into a lump Do you like cats, little boy? Yeah! Say, Mr.
Okida liked Tokito-san, didn't he? He made him his driver even though he's young.
No, he's actually a programmer.
He was originally a programmer for our company.
He and a friend started a software company two years ago, but it didn't go so well As expected, he went bankrupt a year later.
Six months ago, he apologized to Mr.
Okida and begged for another job— even if he was just a driver.
So then Mr.
Okida made him his chauffeur? Yes.
He was a kindhearted person, after all.
Oh! I shouldn't be here! I need to inform the company directors! No.
Mr.
Okida didn't hire Tokito-san as a driver because he was kindhearted! He was making an example to the other employees! If he really was a warm-hearted soul Tokito! Why the hell weren't you paying attention?! he wouldn't have yelled at him like that in public! Oh, Conan-kun! Say, what did you and Tokito-san talk about? You seemed to be having a good time! About Aslan.
He said that long hair cats don't handle heat well, so they need air-conditioned rooms to live! That must be tough! So if it was hot enough in here to melt the chocolate, that cat should've been affected.
But from what I saw, it doesn't seem weakened at all! I'm gonna go talk to Tokito-san too! I hear you're actually a programmer? I heard you set out on your own two years ago and started a software company with your friend.
When I grow up, I wanna make computer games too! Is that so? But I make business software, not games.
Running a company must be hard.
You went bankrupt in just a year, right? Everything went great at first, but then a certain man got in the way And then he drove my friend to suicide! Would that certain man happen to be Mr.
Okida? There are all kinds of things in the adult world.
Forget what I just said.
There's no question that Tokito-san hated Mr.
Okida enough to kill him.
He might've begged for another job to get revenge.
If Mr.
Okida's heart attack was intentionally caused by someone, Tokito-san would be the prime suspect.
But how exactly could he have done it?! Computer intrusion? Yeah.
It's possible for a home computer connected to a phone line to infiltrate another home's computer system and change its air conditioning program, right? It's possible.
For someone well-versed in that field, that is.
Tokito-san is a first-rate programmer, so he's definitely well-versed.
But simply raising the temperature couldn't kill him What is this?! Oh, I was eating ice cream earlier.
I must've spilled some.
What a slob! Now I have to change my socks! Say, isn't it a little hot in here? Crank up the AC! No, this is just right! You're young so it might not affect you, but it's best not to make it too much cooler than it is outside.
I once read an article about how someone had a heart attack when they entered a coffee shop with the AC on too high.
A heart attack?! Probably because of the sudden drop in temperature.
That's it! Tokito-san warmed the room up and then suddenly cooled it down to cause a heart attack! But it'll be hard to find proof.
Maybe if the program was at that man's home, but I doubt he would actually hold on to it.
Yeah, I'll go check for myself! There's something I'd like you to make for me Have an idea, do you? Here's some juice.
Thanks! What a surprise! Nobody's ever asked to come see my computer before! Can I see it? Huh? What's this? What's this flake thing? Is something wrong? No, it's nothing.
This computer's so cool! I wish I had one! It might be too early for you to have one Since you're here, want to play some computer games? Isn't that your car? It's the company's, but its alarm is going off! I'll be right back! Open up! No? Who put this here?! Was it that kid?! No good! It's not here! I was playing poker with the computer! I won with only one pair! Good job, Conan-kun! I'm overanalyzing things! That was just someone's prank! Oh! How did it go, Shin'ichi? From your expression, I take it you didn't find the program? Nope.
The only thing I learned was how to play poker against a computer.
I dunno what to do now This is a cat hair.
Oh yeah, I probably got it from Aslan this morning at Mr.
Okida's house.
I had forgotten about him.
Aslan is a long-haired cat, so he'd be affected if a room got too hot.
I can't lay out a theory unless I solve this puzzle.
Wait! I changed my socks earlier! Which means this hair came from Tokito-san's apartment Now I see! Which means that flake was— Megure here.
Good to hear to you again, Inspector.
This is Shin'ichi Kudo.
Oh! Kudo-kun! There's something I'd like you to investigate immediately about Mr.
Okida's sudden death.
Mr.
Tokito, the driver? Understood.
Take Conan-kun and Ran with you.
I'm sure they'll come in handy.
Bye.
Why do I have to use this to fake my own voice? Talk about pathetic Good morning! Sorry for the early intrusion! May we come in? Of course.
Computer infiltration? This Kudo kid sure has a good imagination! But I didn't kill him.
I'd like to ask you about the day before yesterday one more time Two nights ago, you put Mr.
Okida to bed and then immediately left, correct? That's right.
Are you sure you didn't do anything out of the ordinary? Anything out of the ordinary? No, nothing That's odd.
I'm almost certain you took his cat two days ago.
I believe his name was Aslan! Yes, Aslan.
And then yesterday you took Aslan back to the Okida home.
When Conan-kun came here yesterday, some cat hair got stuck to his feet! I must've picked it up when I held Aslan at Mr.
Okida's house and then it fell off here! But Tokito-san! There's cat litter here! These are used in litter boxes, right, Ran-neechan? Yeah, they stick to long hair cats especially easily, and they fall all over the place when they walk around.
Look! Here's another one! You don't have a cat, do you? There's no question that you took Aslan, is there? Why did you take Aslan?! Uhh— You did it because you knew something was going to happen at the Okida house that night! The entire house would become unusually warm and then suddenly cool down.
You love animals, so you took Aslan with you because he would be affected and possibly even die! Am I right?! You're actually a nice person, aren't you? But what you did was wrong! Computers were created to enrich people's lives and make them happy, right? Yet you used one to kill somebody! That computer's your friend, isn't it?! That means you've betrayed your own friend! You're right, Conan-kun.
I almost lost a dear friend and my pride as a programmer.
My program's on this disk.
To be honest, I didn't think this would kill him.
I was going to think up something else if it failed.
Why did you keep something that incriminating?! Every program I write is like a child to me.
I couldn't bear to get rid of it Conan-kun.
Could you tell this Shin'ichi something for me? I don't know in how many years it'll be, but when I start my next software company I'd love to have him work for me! You too, of course.
Right! I'll tell him! Love is burning—The rose blooming in my heart Love is burning heart ni sakaseta bara wa Is the only flame I have to burn away the darkness yami o yakitsukusu tatta hitotsu no hono'o This city full of walls like a labyrinth from a game kabe-darake no machi o game no you na meiro o Makes me feel like a clown wandering aimlessly pierrot no kibun de samayo'u Hurrying through so I don't step on shards of sadness kanashimi no kakera o fumanai-you ni surinuke We once loved each other in the future futari wa mirai ni koi shita kon'ya nazo o hitotsu tokiakaseba mata omae ni If I solve yet another riddle tonight then Hurry Up! I'll get to Hurry Up! see you again Hurry up! sugao ga Hurry up! modotte-kuru Love is passion ryoute ni afureru ai o Love is passion—I want to throw the love overflowing from my hands Into the darkness, and embrace the light yami ni nagetsukete hikari dakishimetai Love is burning meikyuu de kawasu Kiss wa Love is burning—The kiss we exchanged in this labyrinth Is the only door I have leading to paradise rakuen e tsudzuku tatta hitotsu no tobira Shin'ichi really beat me this time! For my student, he sure is meddling! Since when am I your student? Hey, Conan-kun.
Didn't you say you saw Shin'ichi at Dr.
Agasa's place yesterday? Yeah! And when I told him about Mr.
Okida he instantly knew that it was a murder! Shin'ichi-niichan sure is smart! That's not what I'm asking about! Why didn't you tell me right away?! You know I'm worried about him! Well, uh— Where is he now? You know, don't you?! No, I— Fess up! Get back here, Conan-kun! NEXT EPISODE Next episode's hint right after this! Oh yes, the phone rang then Yeah! Conan-kun answered it! Yeah! They said, "I'm Tatsumi's wife, of course!" Which means she was still alive at that time? Tatsumi-sensei was with me; his alibi is airtight.
And besides, the hotel is 10 kilometers from his home.
