A Meeting at Columbo

Ran, Kogoro and Conan are watching news about three bank robbers in the office.

Kogoro: "This has been the only piece of news the whole morning..."

Ran: "Well, it's only been one week from the robbery, and one of the bankers was apparently shot..."

Kogoro: "Yeah...was that because he tried to go against them?"

Conan: "I don't think so...apparently he put both his hands up and said. "Okay, please stop!" and tried to cool the situation."

Amuro: "Well, they won't be able to do anything with the money. The 2 hundred million yen they took were all new notes and there are records of the codes on them."

Kogoro: "Yeah...it's only a matter of time then before they're caught...and what the hell are you doing here?"

He'd brought up sandwiches for them.

Conan: "This guy's got too much spare time on his hands."

Amuro: "And so, do you know what kind of case your client will be bringing today?"

Kogoro: "How the hell do you know about that ?"

Amuro: "Well, usually Sunday lunchtime Master Mouri reserves for reading the Racing Post...Today, he's shaved...and right now it's supposed to be Okino Yoko's..."

Kogoro hurriedly changes the channel.

Ran: "He shifted the time for meeting the client becuase he wanted to see this show live."

Conan: "This guy's got too much spare time too."

A message comes to Kogoro's phone from Kashizuka Kei, saying she wants to change the meeting place to Columbo.

Kogoro says he can't be bothered to go but Ran says that isn't even lunch time yet and pushes him to get up.

She tells him off for dropping cigarette ash on the table.

Amuro: "Do you mind if I sit down with you?"

Kogoro: "So long as you pay your tuition fees..."

When Kogoro and co leave the shop, there's a mysterious shadow watching them go.

At Columbo: Kogoro explains the case: A coin locker key was found amongst the belongings of the client's deceased brother and she wants Kogoro to identify which locker it belongs to.

Kogoro: "Generally when it comes to keys you can use the serial number and the manufacturing company's name to find things out...and I get 300000yen for this!"

They wait for the client and start muttering about how she's late and hasn't turned up.

Kogoro notices that the previous mail address of the e-mail from the client is different from the one just received.

Ran: "Maybe her phone's charging and she's had to use a friend's to send the message?"

Amuro: "And then her friend switched off the phone?"

Kogoro: "I sent back an OK message to the second address!"

Conan: "So maybe she's waiting back at the office, not knowing that you'd replied?"

They send a message to the first e-mail address, saying that they were going to go back to the office.

When they get back to the office, Kogoro is about to go to the loo when another message arrives, "I've just arrived at Columbo. Could you come as quickly as possible?"

Conan is about to go to the loo too when another message comes in, "Hurry and bring everybody with you."

Conan and Amuro: "Alright, let's go." They leave the room,

Amuro: "Clearly there was somebody who didn't want the client to meet with Master Mouri...he sent the message to get the Master out of the office and then met with the client himself, pretending to be an employee at the office. As evidence of that, note the traces of the door having been forced open, there's a damp cup in the cutlery cupboard...knowing Miss Ran, I doubt that she'd put away a damp mug."

Conan: "And the ash on the table has been wiped off."

Amuro: "So somebody invited in the client whilst we were out and put out some tea."

Ran: "But...but...why would somebody...she only came because she wanted to have a coin locker found..."

Kogoro: "Maybe there's something tremendously valuable in the locker..."

Amuro: "Hmm...in which case, shall we ask the person himself? It was when the Master... and then when Conan...tried to go to the toilet that..."

Conan: "And there are traces of something having been dragged up to the toilet door..."

Amuro: "That's right. Somebody, for some reason, grabbed the client and is still hiding inside the toilet."

Suddenly there's a loud bang. Conan runs to the toilet, where they find a woman with her mouth and body bound up with tape. Beside her is a dead man pointing a gun at himself.

He's sat down on the toilet seat, holding the gun in both hands, and between his knees...) Conan and Amuro: "What?!"

The police arrive. Megure: "Kashizuka Kei, you came here to ask Mouri to look for a coin locker but were knocked out by a man calling himself Mouri's apprentice with a stungun. When you came to, you were bound and in the toilet..."

Kashizuka: "Yes...he'd taken away my boots to stop me running away...and pulled out all of the shoestrings..."

Megure: "Then Mouri came home, and this man panicked and put the gun in his own mouth and shot himself. But why did he put you in the toilet?"

Kashizuka: "He was asking me over and over again where the coin locker for the key was...and that if I didn't tell him, he'd shoot me."

Takagi: "Inspector! Apparently we couldn't find much trace of the shooting on her clothes..."

Megure: "In which case it would be correct to assume that the man shot himself...and that she is telling the truth...Right, well, now it's time to find this coin locker and find out why this man committed suicide."

Amuro and Conan silently observe the weeping Kashizuka.

Spoiler:

My first guess is that it's either Sera or Okiya following them.  More likely Sera, since it would be incredibly strange for Okiya to randomly show up near the Detective Agency.

Spoiler:

hmmm...I'm only curious about who is the shadow following them...And of course I want to know more about Amuro^^

Gimme a new psychopath, we barely see Gin anyway.

Spoiler:

Why does this seem so familiar?
And yay, mysterious shadow.

[sonoci]

Spoiler:

hmmm...I'm only curious about who is the shadow following them...And of course I want to know more about Amuro^^

Spoiler:

I agree. That shadow might not relate to the case considering how close we are to 800. It could be leading to a later case

Of course, it could've just been the guy that snuck in. 

[Partsu]

Spoiler:

or it was Okiya checking on Amuro that he recognized as Bourbon...but can't speak of it without looking suspicious...eh eh eh...lol jk...

[Jd-]

Remember: If you're discussing file spoilers, be sure to use spoiler tags until the day the file is released by us here.

[leokiko]

Spoiler:

I think the shadow is someone related to the case itself.
@edit: lol, someone posted it right xD.

[briggettkylie]

Woo, can't wait for it to be translated by the DCTP! If ever the Bourbon arc will end soon, I still wanna see Amuro! ♥

[sonoci]

Wow, I can't believe this. I actually have a theory just based on the spoilers. Gosh, I hope it's not true or this'll be too easy

Spoiler: Random theory based on 796 spoilers, read at the risk of your sanity

All right, so there were three bank robbers, right? I think it's a pretty safe bet that one of them was the man who died

There are a couple of identities who this Kashizuka Kei could be:
1) one of the bank robbers
2) the wife/friend of the banker who was shot
3) both (was robbing the bank, didn't think that anyone would be shot, let alone her friend/husband)

If she's number 2 it's a bit more hazy how she could've done it, but I have a quick one for if she was one of the robbers. Obviously what's in the locker is something to do with the robbery, the first thought being the money (it could be something else, we don't know) so she wants to get it open. Likely she's not the leader of the robbers (if she is one in the first place) so she had to get some help.

Beforehand she may have made plans with one of the other robbers (not specifically the leader, but the guy that died) maybe saying something like "I've found the key but Kogoro Mouri has it, I'll distract him while you sneak in to get it". Then, the reason she was late was because she'd killed him and had to get changed (or something like that)

She also could've been instructed by the last member of the robbers to do what she did, hence the crying (the dead guy may have meant something to her)

Whatever the case, she's guilty of something, I can just feel it

Funnily enough, I wrote most of that hoping it's not true. Now, I know there are a lot of holes, but I'm going to "stand by" this "theory" for a few weeks (aka, whenever the last of this happens to come)

[Stopwatch]

Spoiler:

Yeah, I will be seriously surprised if the woman is innocent of everything. Though, if your case theory is anywhere near correct I.. it just feels really deja vu-y, it reminds me of a mixture of some previous cases...

[Wakarimashita]

Spoiler:

It's a howdunnit...it's quite obvious that Kashizuka Kei and the man killed in the bathroom were somehow involved in the bank robbing along the guy who was killed. I think the real question is : how did the woman manage to shoot the man through the mouth yet appear tied up with her mouth covered when she was found ?

[Chekhov MacGuffin]

For the love of organization someone fork this topic!
