File 728
Air on the G String
Caption: The reason you pucker your lips is so that you can be attractive!

2
Sidetext: What on earth is the reason for the tense situation?
Genta: Crap!
--The culprit's still here!?

Mitsuhiko: A...
--Anyways, let's hurry up and get out of here!!

Ayumi: B-but...
--We have to save that boy!!

Conan: You guys!!
--Stick by me!!

3
Haibara: Yes...If we scatter we'll be taken down...
--What happened to that boy is liable to be repeated...

SFX: Waaaaaaaaaaah

4
Box: 3 hours earlier...
Man: It's no use, sir!
--The oil's leaking and the engine is fried...

Man: It needs time to be repaired at the shop or it won't run..
--I'll have to tow it in for now...
Agasa: Hey...

Agasa: Are you leaving us here?
Man: Indeed...
--Even if you decide to take public transit into town...

Man: there aren't any buses or taxis that go through these mountains...
Genta: We have to go down the mountain on foot?
Ayumi: Eh?
Mitsuhiko: That's pretty far!

Haibara: Couldn't you give us a lift in your car?
Man: No. One adult would be OK, but not all of you...
Conan: Then how about you take the professor?

Conan: If he takes you to town couldn't you rent a car? Round trip would be about an hour...
Agasa: Oh, right! Then you kids can wait here quietly for me!

5
Conan: Wha...
--The Professor's been gone for an hour and a half...

Conan: He's late...
Ayumi: I guess he got lost...
Mitsuhiko: Most likely..
Genta: I'm hungry...

Haibara: What a thing to happen while we were digging for bamboo shoots...
Ayumi: We picked so many, too...
Genta: And tonight we were going to have bamboo shoots for dinner at the Professor's house!

Ayumi: Huh?

Ayumi: Rain...
Genta: Seriously!?
Mitsuhiko: And we don't even have an umbrella!

Conan: Come to think of it...when we were driving we passed by some villas. Maybe they'll let us take shelter from the rain with them!

6
Genta: Hey, Conan...it doesn't seem like anybody's here!

Conan: Well it is the off season...
Ayumi: It's gotten dark...
Mitsuhiko: Let's go stand under an overhang for now...

Conan: So? You still haven't gotten in touch with the Professor?
Haibara: No...
I called a while ago, but it seems his phone wasn't switched on...

SFX: Peep Peep

Conan: Huh?
--From the Professor's home...?

Conan: Hey, Professor, what the heck are you doing!?
Agasa: Sorry, sorry...
--I was afraid I might drop my wallet and cell phone while we were digging for bamboo shoots so I put them in Ai-kun's day pack for safe keeping and accidentally left them there!

7
Agasa:   In the end it took a long time because they brought me all the way home...
--I'm going to rent the car now so you'll just have to be patient for another 2 hours!

Conan: That's what he said!
Mitsuhiko: Eh? Wait another 2 hours!?
Ayumi: No way!!

Genta: Geez! And now the rain is coming down hard!
Haibara: Be patient!
--Getting upset won't fill your belly, you know...

Ayumi: Music...
--Can you hear it?
Mitsuhiko: It's piano music...

8
Ayumi: It's coming from that house...

Mitsuhiko: But I think I've heard that song before...
--They usually play it during the graduation ceremonies on dramas...
Ayumi: Do you know it, Conan-kun?

Conan: No, I'm not into music...
Haibara: It's a composition by Johann Sebastian Bach...Orchestral Suite #3 in D Major, Second Movement, "Air"

Haibara: Also known as...
--"Air on the G String"...

Mitsuhiko: Yeah! I've heard that name before!
Haibara: The performer is as good as a professional...

Conan: Then let's go ask them if we take shelter from the rain!
Ayumi: Right!
Genta: You think maybe they can make us a bamboo shoot meal?
Mitsuhiko: That's pushing it...

9
SFX: Ding Dong

Genta: Hey!
Ayumi: The piano music stopped
Mitsuhiko: I hope they're nice!

Conan: They're not coming...
Haibara: They're not even answering the intercom...
Mitsuhiko: Strange...
SFX: Ding Dong, Ding Dong

Genta: Huh?

Genta: It's open...

10
Mitsuhiko: Ex-excuse me!
--We just want to take shelter from the rain!!

Ayumi: It's pitch black...
Mitsuhiko: Why'd they turn off the lights?

SFX: crackle

Genta: Wah! I stepped on something!!
Mitsuhiko: Eh!?

Genta: Po...
--Potato chip?

Genta: They're scattered all over the hallway...
Haibara: It seems they have bad mannered children...

Ayumi: Hey, come here, come here!
Genta: Hm?

11
Ayumi: It's the piano!
Genta: Oh!

Mitsuhiko: But if they were playing why didn't they come greet us?
Haibara: He wasn't just playing... he assembled this audio equipment, too...

Haibara: Perhaps he was playing a CD or something...it was almost too good...
Conan: No...It was definitely this piano...
--In that peformance we heard this was the only note that was slightly out of tune...

Haibara: As usual, even though you're tone deaf you have a good ear...
Conan: Lay off...

Ayumi: Want me to play something for you? I can play "I Stepped on the Cat." [TN: The English name for this simple piano piece is "The Flea Waltz."]
Conan: You'd better not, or they'll get mad at us!!

Conan: Besides, we have to find the owner...
SFX: jiggle


12
Mitsuhiko: Wahhhhh!
Conan: Eh?

Mitsuhiko: There was a tall person watching us through the door's glass panel!!
Ayumi: Eh!?

Conan: Then that must be the owner! We should go say hello...

Conan: There's something in the way...

Conan: A push cart?

13
Genta: M-maybe he was trying to shut us in...
Ayumi: No way...
Mitsuhiko: Excuse me!!
--We're not suspicious people!

Mitsuhiko: Please come out!

Ayumi: Oh! There's a room with a light on!
--Maybe somebody's inside!

Mitsuhiko: Looks like the kitchen!

Mitsuhiko: But why's the tabletop like that...
Ayumi: It's full of leftover fried foods, bread, and ham...
Genta: The way the food's all scattered it looks like a dog or something was eating here...

Haibara: The owner appears quite wild...
--Even the wine glass is knocked over...
Conan: Hm?

Conan: A notebook?

14
Conan: March 20, clear...
--When he tries to speak, he seems quite pleasant. Smiling and playful...Today I don't know if he comprehends where he's been placed, but he apparently passed the days appropriately restrained...In any case, he only has to endure 2 more days...

Conan: March 22, cloudy...Bach, Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven...Heart wrenching melodies...Geniuses born of the same era...I resent those talents...Playing music in this situation is inappropriate, but I can forget the time...Just one more uneventful day...

Conan: March 23, rain...
--Terrible...Somehow the boy appears to know who I am...If it's revealed there will be future hindrances...Poor thing, but it appears my only choice is to kill him...

Ayumi: K-kill!?
Mitsuhiko: Wh-why do that!?
Haibara: Perhaps it was a kidnapping...

Haibara: Someone kidnapped a little boy and locked him up in this house...
Ayumi: That can't be...

Genta: On the next page! What's written there!
Conan: The pages are stuck together...

15
Ayumi: A, a blackout...
Mitsuhiko: A-and that page...that looks like red stuff on it!
Haibara: And the contents say, "Boy, I'm sorry. Please forgive me."

Ayumi: Pi...
--Piano music...
Mitsuhiko: It's the song from before!!

Genta: Crap! The culprit is still here!?
Mitsuhiko: Anyways, let's hurry up and get out of here!!
Ayumi: B-but...we have to save that boy!!
Conan: You guys, stick by me!!

16
Haibara: Yes...If we scatter we'll be taken down...
--What happened to that boy is liable to be repeated...
Mitsuhiko: A, a coffin!?

Conan: Do you know when the Air on a G String was cast into the spotlight?
Haibara: It was more than 100 years after Bach's death...

Haibara: Perhaps that's how long he intended for the boy...
--to be put to rest in this coffin...
Sidetext: An unexpected situation while lost at the villain!?
