Part 2 What are the great detective's secrets?! A new heroine enquires! Tsukuba Mei

I'm Tsukuba Mei.

I look forward to working with you.

Tsukuba Mei (22) Event Staff

You're appearing on the panel, too?

Yes.

I'm actually studying criminal psychology in college.

So that's why.

I see.

I asked the president and manager to let me go onstage,

since it seemed like there weren't enough guests for the panel.

Ujimori Yusaku (45) HISHIDA Hall Manager

Tsunohazu Naoya (35) Event Company President

What do you think, Mori-sensei?

I apologize for the change in plans,

but honestly, as the event organizer,

I'd like to do whatever I can to dispel the rumors that will surely spread about the murders.

Kisaki-sensei, what do you think?

Sounds interesting.

I don't mind at all.

Huh?

Very well. Ask me anything.

As the greatest of great detectives,

I, Mori Kogoro, shall reveal all my secrets.

Thank you!

Then let's get ready.

Got it.

In here.

Amagi Kosuke (28) Event Staff

Furui Kiho (25) Event Staff

Thank you. Could I get a coffee?

Yes, right away.

Oh.

What's this?

I'm sorry.

That's odd. These scraps of paper weren't here when I cleaned earlier.

Wait!

Don't throw those away!

What?

Hanai Rika (23) MC

Thank you for waiting.

We'd now like to move onto the panel.

Due to certain circumstances, we've drastically changed the content of the event.

What are the great detective's secrets?! A new heroine enquires!

"What are the great detective's secrets?! A new heroine enquires!"

is the new title we'll be going with.

Allow me to introduce our panelists.

First up is the man who just regaled us with his entertaining stories,

the great detective Mori Kogoro.

Thank you.

Next is the lawyer Kisaki Eri-sensei.

Hello.

We're hoping to get your thoughts from a legal perspective.

Thank you for having me.

Dad, Mom!

Finally, representing us as a special guest

is the new generation's detective girl,

and student of criminal psychology, Tsukuba Mei-san.

Hello.

The game should be over by now if it didn't go into overtime.

All right. The next step is...

That was a great game!

I thought it'd go into overtime, but then they made that comeback with a header!

So cool!

But Conan-kun and Ai-chan never showed up.

I wonder why?

I know. They could've reached out to us.

Then they'll be treating us to extra large eel bowls!

What? Oh, no.

We've been waiting for you, Detective Boys.

Conan-kun, Ai-chan.

What's going on?

Is it true that there were two murders here?

Depending on your answer, you might also owe us giant pork buns!

Just come inside.

We found three of these in different locations.

Two were at crime scenes, and the other was in Kisaki-san's changing room.

Ran-oneesan's mom?

What is this?

Probably some kind of message or code.

A code?

Which means there must be a codebook for deciphering it.

A codebook?

I know!

It's a set of rules for letters or sentences

that appear randomly organized showing how rearranging them according to certain rules

or removing certain sections creates a meaningful message, right?

That's right.

It's what?

For example, if the menu of your favorite eel restaurant were a codebook,

if you removed only the letters in "eel bowl" (unaju)

U-NA-JI-YU-U

KI-MO-SU-I

or "liver soup" (kimosui) from a sentence that appears random...

Oh, I see.

In other words, we need to find an eel restaurant's menu.

You can count on us!

No!

We're looking for the magazine these pages were torn from.

It should be someplace visible.

Why?

It's a long story.

But if we don't hurry, I have a feeling something terrible will happen.

So let's find that magazine first.

Got it.

The Detective Boys are on the case.

All right! I'm not sure what's going on, but let's do this!

Yeah!

Next, new generation's girl detective Tsukuba Mei-san,

it seems you have some questions for the Sleeping Kogoro.

Oh, yes!

My friend asked me about a murder

that happened at a certain college one year ago.

What?

I see. Why don't you tell us the details?

All right.

University

Research Lab

The victim was a professor at the college.

The police arrested the professor's assistant,

who was also the older brother of my friend.

Allegedly his motive was the professor claimed a paper he had written

Ashida Hiroto (26) Research Assistant

was plagiarized from his own work and threatened to ruin his career.

You...

Huh?

Nothing.

Come to think of it, that did happen.

The suspect confessed to his crime, and he was found guilty in court.

I don't think there was any problem with the case.

There's a huge problem!

Staff Room Authorized Personnel Only

I found it! This is it!

Look at this.

This is definitely it.

Caseweek, huh?

Caseweek?

That's a famous American news magazine.

Japanese Edition

But this is in Japanese.

Does that mean it's the Japanese version?

The American edition and the Japanese edition...

Japanese Edition

English and Japanese...

I see. So that's how it is.

I've cracked the code!

Really?

There's also this.

University Professor Murdered

University Professor Murdered

Toto Keizai Newspaper

And that.

There's a huge problem!

A huge problem?

Yes.

The murder of the professor at that college isn't over yet.

There's no doubt that Ashida Hiroto, who's currently serving time, was the murderer.

Even by my deduction.

But my friend can't believe he'd steal another person's paper,

much less kill someone over one.

I see. Is that right?

Takagi, I have an urgent request.

But ultimately, he offered no other testimony at his trial,

and no appeal was made.

Why would he do that?

I'd like you to determine that, Mori-san.

What?

I'm not sure what you expect me to do.

Of course.

You couldn't possibly know.

Huh?

After all, you're a hack who couldn't even decipher the mystery message

left at the crime scene!

Is that true, Takagi?

Yes. You were right, Mori-san.

Got it. Contact the inspector.

Have him return immediately.

Tell him this case isn't over yet.

I-It's what?

Also, Takagi, could you do one other thing?
