Detective Conan 712

1
Genta: Did you see it? The news about Kid this morning?
Ayumi: I did! I did!
Text: The Detective Boys hanging out after school...

Ayumi: He sent out another advance notice!
Mitsuhiko: Yeah! His target is a big jewel owned by Mr Suzuki Jirokichi!

Mitsuhiko: A kirin's horn! [TN: 'Kirin' is both the Japanese word for ’giraffe’ as well as the name of a mythical Chinese unicorn.]
It's got plants from over a thousand years ago mixed in, so it's like precious amber!

Haibara: But that's quick notice...Wasn't that ancient amber discovered at the old temple just last week?
Conan: Well, if that's the only thing they have every day on TV and the newspapers even Kid will come biting...

Genta: But...does a kirin have horns?
Ayumi: Yes! Two small ones...
Conan: You're talking about a giraffe...

Conan: The kirin we're talking about has a body covered all over with yellow scales　and is shaped like a deer. It has a cow's tail and horse's hooves. Growing from its dragon-like head is a single horn...
It's a divine beast from Chinese mythology!

Mitsuhiko: Along with the azure dragon and the white tiger, right?
Haibara: So, are you being invited again?
Conan: No, I haven't received word yet...

File 712
Azure Dragon
Caption: Center of attention.
Conan: Huh?

3
Woman: So how are you feeling, Edogawa-kun! Another dual with the Kid...
Man: Do you have a strategy you'll employ?
Conan: Ah...no...

Genta: What? Just Conan again?
Ayumi: How lucky...and I wanted to dual with the Kid, too...
Mitsuhiko: There's nothing you can do about it! It's Conan-kun that chases him away every time...

Man1: Ah! Do the Detective Boys have something to say, too?
Mitsuhiko: Eh?
Man2: You kids are the Detective Boys, right?

Man: Could you let us know if you're excited?
Conan: Uh, why are you asking them?

Woman: Oh? You haven't heard?
Man1: Counselor Suzuki Jirokichi announced today at the press conference!
Man2: This time it wouldn't be just Edogawa-kun, he'll be borrowing the aid of the Detective Boys as well...

Conan: Eh?
Ayumi: No way...
Mitsuhiko: What?

4
Man: C...
Counselor...

Man: Aside from Edogawa-kun, why place children where Kaitou Kid is going to attack?
Suzuki: Didn't you see that guy's advance notice?

Man: Um..."On the night of the next full moon at 7pm　I'll be paying a visit to get the kirin's horn. Kaitou Kid." This?

Suzuki: Check the postscript!

Man: P.S. This time we're done with the child's play. We'll do battle as adults...
Suzuki: That guy...revealed his own weakness...

Suzuki: When he says to be adults, he means to not invite children!
In other words, Kaitou Kid is weak against children!!

Man: W-weak against children?
Suzuki: Exactly! If you think about it, even he can't disguise himself as a child! If they are at the scene they'd just be a hindrance!　If that's the case, then our strategy will be to invite a whole crowd of children!

Man: I, I see!!
Suzuki: Furthermore, the full moon is two nights from now...That's the day that mountain temple will get a direct hit from a typhoon!　The driving rain will prevent him from using his signature hanglider!

5
Suzuki: With his wings plucked, Kaitou Kid will be the same as a baby!!
Just like that great detective Akechi Kogorou I'll lead the Detective Boys and make a grand arrest on TV...A perfectly beautiful chapter to adorn my autobiography!!
[TN: Akechi Kogorou is a fictional Japanese detective who also led a group of young sleuths named the Detective Boys.]

Shinkai: Why, don't those
just suit you perfectly?
Those DB sweatshirts?
Kids: Thank you!!

Shinkai: Well, let me introduce myself!
I'm ShinKai Juri, reporter!
Sign: Shinkai Juri (37) Reporter

Shihnkai: And sitting next to me is the cameraman, Masui-san!
Masui: Pleased to meet you!
Sign: Masui Shougo (41) Cameraman

Shinkai: And in the front seat is...
Er...

6
Hisumi: Greetings.
I'm Hisumi, soundman.
Sign: Hisumi Isao (38) Soundman

Shinkai: Oh...I heard the soundman was a young boy...
Hisumi: They couldn't get in touch with him, so they quickly got me to come...

Masui: Surely it's because the typhoon is coming...
That youngster's likely got cold feet...

Genta: It's really coming down...
Suzuki: Ho! Sorry to keep you waiting, Detective Boys!

Suzuki: So how are they, the clothes I made for you!
Ayumi: Eh? Uncle made these sweatshirts for us?

Suzuki: Yes! I thought you'd be more like a detective club if your clothes matched!
Ayumi: Thank you! We really like them!!

7
Conan: So? Where's the kirin's horn?
From the looks of things, there's only a center pillar...
along with 4 pedestals in the corners...

Haibara: Copper pedestals...
Genta: The color's faded and the top surface is rough...
Mitsuhiko: There used to be some kind of image here but it's been completely removed...

Ayumi: Look, look! This seems like a keyhole!!
Genta: Oh! It's true!

Genta: Oww...
Nakamori: Don't go touching!
Mitsuhiko: Inspector Nakamori!

Nakamori: You should have told the kids the pedestals have a light electric current running through them!
Suzuki: But they'll remember when they get shocked!

Conan: So, where's the horn?
Suzuki: I'll show you now!

8
Suzuki: By using these 4 keys...
White, black, red, and green!!

Suzuki: Inspector Nakamori! I'd like to borrow your subordinates...
Suzuki: Sure, no problem...but you'll have to shut the electricity off!

Suzuki: Shut off the power!
Phone: Yes, sir!
Conan: You use each key on the pedestal of the matching color?
Guard: Yes...

Mitsuhiko: Wh-what's that sound?
Nakamori: That's the sound of the electric current running through the pedestals being shut off...One sound for each pedestal in order: green, red, white, black, and then the current is stopped!

Guard: Give us the signal, inspector!

Conan: What's that noise?
Mitsuhiko: Yeah, it's...
Nakamori: Ok 1,2,and...

Nakamori: 3!

9
Ayumi: Ah! The center pillar...
Mitsuhiko: I-it's splitting...

Genta: I-inside...
Mitsuhiko: There's something...

Kids: Oooohhhh!

10
Mitsuhiko: It's the kirin!!
Genta: Cool!!

Haibara: Then the jewel in the head is...
Conan: The piece of amber they call the kirin's horn!

Nakamori: Alright, close it!
Guards: Right!

Suzuki: This way...
If one doesn't turn the keys at the same time, one won't be able to see the kirin statue!

Suzuki: In other words, as long as he doesn't swipe the keys from me and split himself into four people, he won't steal it!

Mitsuhiko: Perhaps the one who created this device was...
Suzuki: Of course, the Bakumatsu trick master...

11
Conan: Samizu Kichiemon？
Suzuki: Yes...

Conan: There's writing on the base of the pillar!　
"One who desires to find the kirin without depending on the correct way　must devote himself to changing. Samizu Kichiemon"

Conan: Did you understand the meaning of this?
Suzuki: No, not yet...but it's ok as long as I have these 4 keys in my hands!

Suzuki: It won't be stolen!
Nakamori: The old man is optimistic...
If we assume that guy has 3 comardes in here, all he needs to do is make it dark and steal the keys to make it an easy heist...

Haibara: Just so...and if the Kid were to take care of these artificial lights, it appears the power would immediately go out...
Suzuki: Yes...and the electric current to the pedestals would be cut off too...

Nakamori: At least I'm glad that if it goes dark the keyholes on the 4 pedestals are being guarded...
Although I don't know whether they've been switched with the Kid's underlings...

Nakamori: I can't trust those 3 TV crew either...

Nakamori: Damn! If there was just one keyhole...
I could guard it by myself...

12
Ayumi: Then we'll guard them for you!
Genta: If we do it them even Kid can't disguise himself as us!

Haibara: Moreover, if it's just us guarding the jewel from the Kid, we can put Conan-kun's nose out of joint, too...
Genta: That's true!

Nakamori: But is that ok? If you touch the pedestals before the power is shut off you'll get electrocuted!
Mitsuhiko: It's fine! As long as we don't mistake the order...
Haibara: After you hear the sounds for the green, red, white, and then black pedestals, the power goes off...

TV: Well, it's 10 more minutes until the Kid's announced time!
As a result, the Detective Boys are lying in wait for the Kid. Will he show up at this mountain temple!?

Shinkai: OK, is everyone going to catch the Kid?
Kids: Yes!

Ran: Conan-kun and the others are really on TV!
Suzuki: Don't change that channel!
Sonoko: Lucky...

Mouri: Wouldn't it have been better if you had gone?
Sonoko: Uncle Jirokichi rejected me on the phone! "This time I'm only inviting kids...Nobody that the kid disguise himself as!"

Shinkai: Five minute break!

Shinkai: We'll go standby with 3 minutes to go!
Masui: OK!
Hasumi: Right!

Haibara: Then we'll go on standby too!
Mitsuhiko: Yeah!
Genta: Yo!

Conan: Hey! Where are you going?
Ayumi: To guard the pedestals!

Nakamori: The question is whether or not you'll guard the keys, old man...
Suzuki: There's no need to worry!

Suzuki: With the keys nailed to the wall like that, we won't see a trace of him!!
It's my victory!!

１４
Nakamori: The power's out!?
Suzuki: Don't panic, I expected a power outage!!

Conan: Rain and wind...
Somebody opened the window!?

Shinkai: Are you getting everything!?
Masui: Yes! But since it's pitch black, nothing is...

Shinkai: What about the sound!?
Hasumi: We're picking it up for now...

Suzuki: Th-that sound is...

Nakamori: No way!?

Ayumi: Co-...

Ayumi: Conan-kun!?

16
Ayumi: Hang on Conan-kun!!
Conan-kun!?

Mitsuhiko: Ah...
Aaahh...
Haibara: Eh?

Mitsuhiko: The kirin's

Mitsuhiko: horn...

Mitsuhiko: It's gone!!

Sidetext: Conan was taken by surprise!! What happened during the blackout!?
