Detective Conan (名探偵コナン)

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning, Conan-kun and Haibara-san!

Good morning, Conan-kun and Ai-chan!

Hey, Conan and Haibara!

G-Good morning...

You two were at the library where Kid showed up, weren't you?

And Professor Agasa!

Who was Kid disguised as?

Conan-kun, did you beat Kid?

Tell us!

What?!

Kaito Kid disguised himself as Professor Agasa?

Yeah.

And you couldn't tell immediately?

He was bending his knees to make himself the professor's height.

Impressive as always.

The actual professor was knocked out with a stun gun

and stuffed into a bathroom stall.

He sounded and acted exactly like the professor.

Lucky.

Just once I'd like Kid to disguise himself as me.

Me, too.

Me, too.

He already did.

Okay, everyone! Take your seats.

Hey, Conan. Who's that?

I dunno.

Who's that?

Today, I have a new teacher to introduce.

Wakasa Rumi-sensei

This is Wakasa-sensei. She'll be my assistant homeroom teacher starting today.

Go ahead, Wakasa-sensei.

U-Um, I'm Wasaka Rumi.

Wakasa Rumi (37) Class 1-B Assistant Homeroom Teacher

I-I'm ten years older than Kobayashi-sensei, but...

Nice...

Nice to meet you!

Are you all right, Wasaka-sensei?

You don't usually get assistants this late in the year.

Maybe it's because this class has so many

transfer students like you and me.

I see.

Feel that bright morning sunlight!

Saturday is when the love and cases start!

Wakasa-sensei seems clumsy.

What kind of influence will she have?

Always determining the one truth

with the body of a child and the mind of an adult,

his name is Detective Conan!

The New Teacher's Skeleton Case

"The New Teacher's Skeleton Case, Part One!"

Huh? Lime?

What do you need that for?

We're playing dodge ball in the yard for fifth period PE.

So I thought I'd draw some lines during lunch.

But the line marker was nearly out of lime.

There's hardly any in reserve in the storehouse either.

Why not check out the old storage shed?

There might be some extra in there.

You mean that rundown storage shed that seems haunted?

I heard a teacher once got locked inside and starved to death in there.

Yeah.

Help me!

I'm hungry!

Feed me eel!

Yeah, right. What ghost would ask for eel?

What? You don't know where it is?

I do, but...

But?

Um, well...

Do you want us to come with you because you're scared?

Huh?

Well, yes.

Sorry for making you help me during your lunch break.

Not at all.

We should help each other out.

Thank you.

Wow, it really is in shambles.

There isn't even a lock on the door.

It didn't have one ten years ago either.

Huh?

How do you know that?

R-Ran-neechan told me.

Whatever. They should just tear it down.

Oh, the principal mentioned that they couldn't

because of feng shui or something on the day of the graduation...

At his entrance ceremony address!

Did he say that?

Conan-kun, you weren't here for the entrance ceremony.

Huh?

Didn't you transfer partway through the year?

I-Is that right?

What school are you talking about?

Are you okay?

You're acting weird.

This one?

In any case, let's get inside and look for the lime.

Don't touch that.

Huh?

Hey, what are you doing, Conan?

Does it not open?

Oh, sorry. I'm opening it now.

Wow.

It's pitch black.

It's no use.

The light bulb is dead.

I-I'll go get a flashlight.

That's quite all right.

Huh?

We have these.

Oh, my. Those are awfully convenient.

Professor Agasa made them for us.

We have Detective Boys badges that serve as transceivers, too.

Really? What an amazing professor.

It's time for the Detective Boys to search for lime!

Yeah!

I found a schedule.

It looks pretty old.

The paper is really worn.

There are lots of blank spaces.

Maybe they didn't finish filling in it.

A trapdoor leading down?

Some of the rust was just recently worn off.

Did someone open it recently?

Hey, Conan. Did you find something?

Is it an entrance to a basement?

M-Maybe that's where...

...they got trapped...

And the dead teacher's...

...skeleton...

We're joking.

Wakasa-sensei, you're such a scaredy cat.

I'm opening it.

Okay.

Heave ho...

Th-There really was a skeleton...

Genta, hold the door!

Got it.

Sensei, call the police!

R-Right!

Calm down.

Right.

Unbelievable.

Anyway, how does it look, Edogawa-kun?

Looks like they died a long time ago.

Based on the condition of the bones and the surroundings,

it's probably been five—no, ten years.

There's something in its right hand.

A string?

No, a sports day headband?

Huh?

Edogawa-kun, is something wrong?

Conan-kun?

Are you okay?

Come back up.

These characters look familiar...

I think...

It was...

Shinichi!

I found a magic string.

A magic string?

It was tied to the old storage shed behind the school.

There's no such thing.

But it had lots of characters I've never seen before written on it.

See? You don't recognize them, do you?

Yeah.

It's probably Chinese.

Let's untie it and show it to the teachers.

Okay.

Don't.

Don't touch that.

That's the magic sealing string trapping

a terrible monster inside the storage shed.

A sealing string?

Looks like the body's about ten years old.

They didn't have any identification on them,

but they were probably a thief.

There was a large crack on the back of the skull,

and it looks like they were carrying a large bag of lime.

They probably lost their footing while trying to steal the bag of lime,

and died when they struck the back of their head

on the vaulting box at the bottom of the steps.

There are no signs of foul play,

so unfortunately, we'll be leaving now.

O-Okay.

W-Well, I should get going.

S-Sure. Thank you for coming.

Aw, shucks.

So it's not a case.

Genta-kun.

It's been ten years

since the police last came here.
