White Day Murder
Caption: Do you suppose he reciprocated?

Sidetext: It's finally White Day season...
Urai: Hmm?

Urai: What's this chocolate?
Hoshie: Why...
-- You know that's your own company's latest product!

Urai: Ah, the "Spychoco White" sold in March for White Day?
Hoshie: Yes...a tarter version of our popular "Spychoco Black," 'Suppaai' White Chocolate! [TN: Suppaai,' means 'sour' or 'tart' and sounds like the English word, 'spy'.]

Urai: Hey, you're not testing this out on me, are you...
--You know I can't eat sour things...
Sign: Urai Taruto (53) President of Urai Confectioners

Urai: Haven't I been saying this forever? I handle sweet things, and you, as vice president, are in charge of sour things.
Hoshie: But, I thought I could try and trick you into tasting it...

3
Hoshie: Perhaps if it was unexpected you'd be fine?
Sign: Urai Hoshie (49) Wife of Urai Taruto

Urai: Gimme a break! After recently eating that practical joke cake of yours with the yuzu in it I was virtually bedridden!　
Hoshie: Forgive me...I was just hoping to cure your dislike of sour things.

Urai: Aside from that...can you come up with an idea for this White Day party?
Hoshie: Ah...the one on March 14...

Urai: So far, we've invited a lot of guests...
--but I have no idea how I'm going to shock them and brighten up the place.

Hoshie: I do have one idea, but should we try it?
--I'm sure everyone will be surprised.
Urai: Oh, enough for their eyeballs to pop out?

Hoshie: Yes...I think even you'll be surprised...
Surprised to death...

Mouri: Damn! There's a 24 hour time limit...
But less than a minute to go...

Mouri: If we　fail to locate the spy in time...
--Everything will be blown away...

Youko: What are you doing!? Have you looked all over that 4 block area!?
--Hurry up!!
Mouri: Hey, Youko! Are you sure about the intelligence!?

Youko: Yes! The Spy is black!!
--There is no evidence that the intelligence has been falsified!! Don't make me repeat myself!!

Mouri: What's going on!?
--The spy is black...then why...

Mouri: Is this chocolate...
--completely white!?

5
Mouri: Sup...
--paaaai!!!

Youko: This time with a tarter taste, Spychoco White!
--On sale now!!

Youko: And please remember the original, Spychoco Black!
Sonoko: Wow...Ran, your dad's pretty good!

Sonoko: And starring in the commercial with that pretty Okino Youko-chan...
--I bet he was pretty thrilled, huh?
Ran: No...He was disappointed the hat and sunglasses covered almost his entire face...

Conan: But it's thanks to the commercial that we were invited to the White Day party, right?
Sonko: Isn't that tonight?
Ran:Yes! It starts at 6pm at the Haido City Hotel...The company was actually founded on March 14.

Sonoko: Speaking of White Day.
--Ran, did you get it?
Ran: Huh?

6
Sonoko: Shinichi-kun's return gift...
Ran: Eh?

Sonoko: Didn't you give him some homemade chocolate?
Ran: Yeah, I did...Or rather, he helped himself to it...

Sonoko: I wonder if Kyougoku-san will be giving me something...
Ran: But not too many boys care about it, do they? I doubt they even know March 14 is White Day...
Conan: That's for sure...

Satou: Huh! So if you give someone Valentine's chocolate on March 14 they give you something in return!!
--I'm glad I heard this!
Sonoko/Ran: D-detective Satou!

Satou: So, Takagi-kun?
--Hmm?
Takagi: Well...Satou-san never gave me Valentine's chocolate...
--Even though I waited forever...

7
Satou: Hey, I did too! On February 14 during a stakeout...
Flashback Satou: Want one?
Takagi: But wasn't that a pocky!! And half eaten, too...

Satou: Sergent Takagi...The police have a saying that no case is too small, so shouldn't that also apply to chocolate?
Takagi: But, you see...
SFX: Beep Beep

Shiratori: Hey guys!　Done with the intelligence gathering?
Takagi: Shiratori-san!

Takagi: What's with those boxes?
Shiratori: Ah...
--They're the presents I'm giving to Kobayashi-sensei for White Day!

Shiratori: Cookies, candy, white chocolate, and marshmallows...
--Actually I wasn't sure which to get so I got them all...

Satou: As you'd expect of Shiratori-kun!
--That's love!

Satou: With Takagi-kun, on the other hand...
Takagi: Beg your pardon! I'm insensitive!!
Conan: Heh heh...

8
Ran: Conan-kun?

Ran: What's wrong?
Conan: Sorry, I just forgot something...wait for me in the Taxi!

Mouri: By the way, are you cured of your cold?
--Didn't you have a nasal voice?
Ran: Yes, I'm better!

---Haido City Hotel---
Mouri: Eh!?
--Okino Youko-chan can't come!?

Mouri: Seriously!?
Man: She just contacted us to say the drama filming is dragging on...

Mouri: And I even brought this White Day present...
Ran: What's that?
--Mom and I still haven't received anything...

9
Urai: Ho, Detective! Welcome to the 8th year anniversary of Urai Confectioners!
Mouri: Um...
--Do I know you?

Urai: I'm the organizer of this party, Urai Confectioners President, Urai Taruto!
--I believe this is our first meeting?
Mouri: P-president!?

Urai: And this is my wife, our Vice President...
Hoshie: I'm Hoshie! It's an honor to meet you, Sleeping Kogorou-sama...

Urai: Please, come in...
Mouri: Oh...

Mouri: Magnificent!

Hoshie: It's buffet style, so help yourself to the food and drinks...
Mouri: Right!

10
Mouri: Wow!
--I can have my pick!!

Ran: Hey, what do you think he'll do?
Mouri: Huh?
--What do you mean?

Ran: President Urai!
--Sonoko said that at every party he does something amusing!

Ran: He's done magic tricks, dressed up as a character from a commercial...
--and even acted out a play under the spotlight!

Ran: That’s why everyone's expecting something!
Mouri: A play, huh?

Mouri: The spy is black...then why is this chocolate...
completely white!?

11
Mouri: Sup...
--paaaai!!

Youko: This time with a tarter taste, Spychoco White!
--On sale now!!

Urai: Yes, that was a splendid performance, Mouri-san!
Hoshie: Truly! You were the right man for the commercial!
Mouri: No, no!

Hoshie: Actually, it was Youko-chan who insisted you play the part of investigator opposite her...
Mouri: Well, that's because she's in love with me!
Ran: That's not it...

Man: Here now, the one playing the lead role in the commercial,
--I introduce to you, the great detective, Mouri Kogorou-sama!
Mouri: Oh!

Mouri: Thank you!
--Thank you!
Hoshie: So, Ran-chan...

12
Hoshie: How about I give you a palm reading?
Ran: A palm reading?

Urai: Ho...I didn't you know you read palms...
Hoshie: Hey, I read yours every morning before you get up...
Ran: Oh...

Hoshie: You should take care because you have a short life line...
--You don't want to die early...
Urai: Hey, hey...

Mouri: And so, hooked on Spychoco, I, Mouri Kogorou, during a detective investigation...
--had my mind on sweets...

Hoshie: So...Ran-chan, are you lucky? Your intuition line runs from your lunar mound up to the base of your fingers...
Ran: Uh, I often win drawings and things...

Ran: B-but what about my romantic fortunes!?
Hoshie: Let's see...

13
Hoshie: Your marriage line is a sideways, Y-shape...
--That means you'll face many obstacles, you won't easily form a alliance with the one you love, and you'll be driven into a corner by a hopeless situation...
Conan: Hey, hey, hey!

Hoshie: Are you listening closely?

Ran: Yes, I'm listening!
Hoshie: No, I meant you...
Urai: Huh?

Urai: Yes...
--Perhaps...

Hoshie: However, after a dramatic development you'll be alligned with him in the end, ...
--So you shouldn't argue with him too much...
Ran: A-alright...

Urai: Gu--

14

Urai: Gaaaaa!

Hoshie: Hey, what are you...
Ran: So this time it's a mystery play?

Hoshie: Detective Mouri? Please come here!
--It appears to be your turn!
Mouri: Uh, ok...

15
Mouri: Good grief...
--I wish you'd told me in advance...

Hoshie: Wow, he really...
--looks like he's dead...

Mouri: Um...
--Estimated time of death is 7:54pm...

Mouri: If my years of detective intuition are correct...
--The culprit is unmistakably...

Mouri: In this room!!!

Mouri: So, what's next?
--President Urai?

Mouri: Hey, President!
--Hello!
Conan: He can't answer...

16
Conan: Because he's not breathing...
Mouri: Eh?

Mouri: He, he's dead!?
--Seriously!?
Hoshie: Maybe it's a joke?

Hoshie: Dear!?
--Dear!?
Conan: There's an almond scent coming from his mouth...

Conan: Potassium cyanide...
--Murder by poisoning?!
Sidetext: The company president was administered poison, and the culprit is...?
