Agasa, his friend, and his friend's granddaughter.
The anonymous tour organizer would play the Night Baron and cause an incident during the tour.
Whoever determines the organizer's identity gets to stay for free and receives floppy disks containing a certain program.
The attendees keep each other in check The Night Baron pushed me off a balcony when I was all alone.
I fell into a pool.
Was this a warning? Or just part of the game? And then it happened The Night Baron plummeted onto a bronze statue! (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) The Night Baron Murder Case (The Suspicion) Izu Princess Hotel A person wearing a mask?! Like I thought, it was the Night Baron who fell! Conan-kun! Hold it, kid! Sorry! Oh? Don't you live with Detective Mouri? Conan-kun! You know better! I'm truly sorry! If it isn't Ran-san! Huh? Aren't you Yokomizo-san from the Saitama police department? Yep! But what are you doing here? Detective Yokomizo Transferred to Shizuoka Police Department I transferred to Shizuoka last month.
Huh? Hey, now! Ebara-san! You know him, Ran-san?! Yes! He was on the same Mystery Tour as us Mystery Tour?! He only has one glove on I see.
So the goal is to figure out who the organizer and Night Baron is.
Which means the organizer was Ebara-san here.
A suicide? An accident? Or maybe Say, where is Detective Mouri? Well, he's In the pub on the second floor.
Huh?! Kamijo-san! Anyway, let's go talk to him! Okay.
Come on, Conan-kun! This way! Wait for me! Tears? Princess Hotel 2F Pub "Emerald" What a time for Dad to get plastered! I see What?! Ebara-san fell off dressed as the Night Baron?! Yes, according to eyewitnesses, he fell at precisely 10 PM! What's with the hands? It's your breath What is it? Whoa! It's this late already?! So, did you check Room 2101, where he was staying? We tried to, but we couldn't get inside.
A security lock on the inside Cut through it! Okay! We're in! There are clothes here.
Those are the ones he was wearing today.
He even left his room key here.
Come to think of it, he was pretty drunk The window's open.
And there's a balcony outside It would appear this is where he fell from.
Careful, Detective Mouri.
This was just a simple accident.
An accident?! No doubt about it.
There's a glove in the railing.
Eh?! He probably tried to climb down the balcony in that costume to scare the attendee in the room below.
But he screwed up and fell to his death.
I dunno This is the 21st floor.
Would he really try to go down without a rope? Plus, the key was inside the room.
If he did make it to the room below and then left through it, he would've needed the key to get back in here.
Shut up, already! My pen! Anyway, let me have a look at the body.
Right.
Seeing it won't change anything, though.
Oh, man So he fell 21 stories onto that statue Has anyone gotten near the body? No, sir.
Aside from us, only one other person has touched him.
That little boy there.
That brat again?! What're you doing, Conan-kun? I can't find the pen that I dropped Is it true that Ebara-san was the one who fell, Mouri-san? No question about it.
It was Tokio Ebara.
And he had a mask on.
A mask?! I see.
So he was the tour organizer and the Night Baron.
I knew it.
I always thought he was suspicious.
Knock it off.
This isn't the time.
Though it is disturbing that the immortal Night Baron would perish Who are these people? Members of the same tour I'm on.
But why would Ebara-san It was just an accident.
An accident? Yes.
He fell off the balcony trying to scare you all.
At any rate, the Night Baron has died.
Now the tour is over.
Huh? Weird.
What's with this necktie? Look at the knot.
The knot? It's backwards! But this could be normal for him.
I have a necktie of his.
Here.
Where'd you get that necktie? A waitress gave it to me.
She said he forgot it.
It's true! This tie's knot is normal! Huh? Huh?! Is there something else?! He's wearing his belt weird, too.
See? It's upside-down.
He's not good with accessories, is he? This is very strange, Mouri-san.
Yeah.
He didn't put these clothes on.
Someone put them on him! Which means Ebara-san was pushed off the 21st floor by the real Night Baron.
In other words, the homicidal Night Baron is still among us! It appears we must ask where each of you were when Ebara-san fell at 10 PM.
Go to the front desk and ask them to prepare a room for questioning.
Yes, sir! What should we do with the body and the costume? Good question.
Let's set him in the office until we're done with the questioning.
Understood.
SHIZUOKA POLICE AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY INTERROGATION ROOM I see.
So, at 10 PM you were in the observation lounge with Ran and Conan? Satoru Maeda (30) Jonan University Electrical Engineering Assistant Yes.
I left them some time after 10 PM.
It's true, Dad! But you were the one who looked at the time, right? Yeah Alright.
Call in the next person.
My alibi's airtight! Hideko Kamijo (29) Software Company CEO Since I was in the pub with him the whole time! Right, Mr.
Detective? Y-Yeah! But didn't he get dead-drunk? Yeah, but Okay.
Next! We were in an open-air restaurant Gen'ichiro Kaneshiro (74) Computer Company Owner near where Ebara-san fell.
Isn't that right, Shizue-san? Shizue Hayashi (56) Kaneshiro's Butler Yes, sir.
Can anyone vouch for this? It was such a commotion that I'm unsure people would remember us.
But with the way he died, I can't say I blame them.
Bring in the next one! I was in my room reading my e-mail Shiro Kon'no (28) Bank Employee from 9:45 until after 10 PM.
The hotel's records should prove that.
But you didn't speak with anyone, correct? Oh, but I did.
With my computer.
Yikes! Call in the next person.
You were alone in your room, too? Yes.
Akiko Sayama (24) High School Math Teacher I was watching TV alone until Satoru returned after 10 PM.
So I take it you have nobody to vouch for you? I can describe what the movie was about, though There was a bomb in a skyscraper Nope.
That won't work as proof.
I can't believe they made me guard him alone! I hope they finish their questioning soon! That detective and your father really tick me off! I bet they think I did it! That's not true! There's tons of other suspicious people! Indeed Is my shift over? Yeah? Huh? Everyone on the tour has a flimsy alibi.
Did you maybe order room service when you were in your room? I would've already said so if I had.
How did the killer leave after pushing Ebara-san off his balcony? The room had its security lock set! All we know is that the killer is still in the hotel You called the front desk?! Yeah.
I asked for a wake-up call.
When was that?! About 10 PM, I think The hotel keeps records of when calls are made from rooms! That means your alibi Hey, Akiko-san! The Night Baron! The Night Baron! No way! Stand back! Stop! What're you doing?! He's getting away! Ran-neechan! Ran-neechan! SHIZUOKA POLICE AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY INTERROGATION ROOM What?! He showed up?! Why the heck didn't you catch him?! Sorry! I was in shock! Detective Yokomizo! What happened? He was collapsed in the room with the body! It appears he was hit by someone! Eh?! And the body?! It's fine, but the Night Baron costume is gone! The Night Baron costume?! Mouri-san Detective Yokomizo! What is it?! The Night Baron's in the pool! What?! The mask, hat, wig, and cape! So what about the one wearing it?! Where could he or she be? Probably up there.
It was tossed from that balcony.
Why did the killer show up at the elevators? If they needed to go up, they would've used the stairs to go unseen.
And why did they have to wear the costume, not to mention risk being caught trying to steal it?! His methods are too aggressive! Could these latest things have been unplanned?! Okay! We need to re-question them! Round up all the suspects! Yes, sir! You were all in your rooms, and you have no witnesses! Which means none of you have alibis for when Sayama-san and the others were attacked! Correct? Hold on, Detective.
You told us not to leave our rooms, and that's just what we did! Yes.
We only did as you asked.
We're not stupid enough to ignore the police.
That's right.
Akiko-san and Maeda-san share the same room.
You didn't check if they were there or not? There was no time to! We all came right away to report about the Night Baron! Right? Yeah.
At any rate, we'll need to check all your rooms.
Yours first, Maeda-san, okay? Okay.
Nothing seems out of the ordinary What the What are you thinking?! Just letting some air in! That stupid kid! Just to be sure, please empty your pockets.
I have this room's layout figured out.
Ebara-san fell from that balcony Yes.
The killer dressed him up as the Night Baron and pushed him off to make it look like an accident! But the security lock was set in the room where it happened! In other words, the killer didn't leave through the door afterward.
Meaning this was a locked-room murder! The balcony is the only other way out of the room But going from there into this room is impossible.
Huh? What's this medicine? Ordinary sleeping pills.
I always carry them with me for my insomnia.
That a problem? Can I see? Okay, let's go to the next room.
You won't find anything, Detective.
We're just making sure.
Him again! The balcony he fell from is directly above It might be possible to climb down here Why do you keep following me?! I thought I'd watch your great detective skills in action! Oh, okay! In that case, pay close attention! There are no signs of the window being broken.
Guess he can be cute sometimes! Was this window always locked, Mister? My eyes are bad.
Can you answer, Shizue-san? Of course it was.
I check it each time we leave.
Kon'no-san's room is next.
I've heard that he was suspected of using his bank's computers without permission and was thus demoted.
He may have wanted to see the Baron the most of all.
Huh? It's simply a rumor, though.
So that old man told you that? Yes.
Who's he to talk? He's the one who hates the Night Baron the most.
What do you mean?! After all, the son he so dutifully raised was murdered by the virus.
Come to think of it, he did mention that The Night Baron.
Hearing that name brings back memories of my son who died four years ago A virus? His son died of an illness? What's that have to do with the Night Baron?! That's a good question Are you playing dumb?! Mouri-san Please stop! I'll give you some special information! This is the closest window to the balcony, but there's no way across.
With Kamijo-san?! They were married.
Though I hear they divorced three years ago.
That's right.
The late Tokio Ebara was my husband.
But that was three years ago when I learned he was a hacker.
Hacker? A criminal who steals computer data! Everyone who uses a computer loathes hackers! I'm relieved that he's dead.
Ah, yes.
I believe Akiko Sayama-san's brother ran a small software company.
Which means she's no exception, either.
Meaning that everyone on the tour had a reason to kill him.
Right, Detective? Oh? These are the same pills that Akiko-san had Are these also— Say, what are these pills for? Hey! Don't touch my things! Is it cold medicine? Y-Yes, that's right Oh, I thought they were sleeping pills.
Guess not.
Alright, you! What are you blabbing about now?! Go get in bed, kid! I didn't check the room's layout yet! Ah, well.
It's the same layout as Kon'no-san's room downstairs.
Well, looking at everyone's rooms, we get Room 2101 Ebara Room 2102 Kamijo Room 2001 Kaneshiro & Hayashi Room 2002 Konno Room 1901 Maeda & Sayama Body as a result.
So the only possible escape from Ebara-san's balcony was through Kaneshiro-san and Hayashi-san's room Hey, what do we do with this? I'm not sure.
It's a piece of the security lock.
Oh, right.
Ebara-san's room is on this floor, too.
Hey, there's something on the tip It's cellophane tape! Wait a minute! Could this be— Hikari to kage no roman Song by Keiko Utoku roman katareba hitobanjuu The twilight would know no weariness tsukareshirazu no all night long If we talked about romance all night long There's no time to love, the waves are surging this way koi-suru hima mo nai yo nami ga oshiyosete-kuru Even as I swim in my memories, reality is cool and dry kioku no naka o oyoide mo genjitsu wa cool and dry Where will I wander to make sure of that love? sore o tashikametakute doko ni samayoi-yuku no to'oi kumo no you ni tsukamenai anata ni You're like an unattainable, far-away cloud tsuite-yuku doko-made mo kokoro ni chikatte Yet I shall follow you wherever you go, I swear on my heart itsuka subete ga wakatte mo Even if you find out someday and realize that I can love you anata o suki de irareru-koto tatoe tatakau mainichi ni akekurete mo Even if we spend our days constantly fighting Picturing my old self, I recalled my hometown fondly natsukashisa de omo'u furusato mukashi no jibun utsusu Chasing the romance of light and shadow hikari to kage no roman oikakete He dodged all of my kicks with no effort at all! And only one of the suspects could've done that What should I do?! Tell me, Shin'ichi! Shin'ichi! Open up, Ran-neechan! Conan-kun! What's the matter? The security lock was set.
That's strange.
I don't remember locking it.
Success! Huh? Are you crying? No! Some tears came out when I yawned.
Well, I'm leaving for a bit! This late?! I'll be back soon! Oh, it's you.
Hey, kids shouldn't be awake this late.
Don't worry about it.
Using that trick, anyone could have killed him! I'll have to check each of their alibis Hey, you hear about Misawa-san? About how the killer knocked him out in the office with the body? But isn't Misawa-san a karate expert? Yeah! Best in the department! Even if he was caught off guard Hey, hey, hold on! Could the killer be NEXT EPISODE Huh? Conan-kun? Alright, who set the security lock?! I locked it from the outside! It locked! That would seal the room and make it look like an accident! I found an alibi for him! Hold on a second!
