This Week’s Translation

鳥取県の三朝温泉に来たボクと蘭姉ちゃん、小五郎のおじさんは、恋谷橋にいたカップルが引き離されたのを見たんだ。

1人は旅館の跡取りで、結婚を反対されて悩んでたみたい。
次の日の朝、その人が失踪したって騒ぎになったんだけど、それはカップルの2人が仕組んだ狂言だったんだ。

でも本当に誘拐されて、犯人から身代金の要求が!
果たして事件の真相は?そして2人の運命は…!?

Ran-neechan, Kogoro-no-ojisan, and I came to Misasa Hot Springs in Tottori Prefecture. That is when we saw a couple get pulled away from each other at Pont Koitani Bridge.

One of them was the sole heiress to an inn and it seems she’s worried about her marriage being opposed. The very next morning, she disappeared which caused panic, but it was set up by the couple.

Until it wasn’t.

She ended being kidnapped and the culprit demanded a ransom!
What is the truth behind the case? What will be the fate of these two lovers?!

Anime original “The Lover Who Vanished on Pont Koitani (Misasa Arc)” coming up next!

Glad that Kogoro got to shine during this case. He didn’t get to reveal the whole truth but with some help from Conan, Kogoro was able to solve a good chunk of the case. Conan did some clean up and the unexpected “mastermind” of all this was revealed to be Yoshino, the waitress at the inn.

Figured the uncle had something to do with it but didn’t expect that the waitress at the inn had anything to do with it. I guess she went under a pseudonym so they wouldn’t connect her to the family that made the kimono. Kinda sad what can happen in a property dispute. As they felt guilt, hopefully when she gets out, she can start her family business again.

It’s kind of crazy to have the uncle be so manipulated into using this as the trick. He could have completely ignored her and carried it out some other way. Plus, it was lucky that Sachiyo was smart enough to get a message out. If he wanted to get away with it he really should have left it to one video or just have photo up while he asks them to run the money.

On another note, I hope that Shinichi makes a comeback this year.

Oh, if only she knew he’s always there beside her.

Next Episode is…?

No new episode next week. Looks like we are getting Chihaya’s debut episode in Japan remastered for the two weeks. Weird to do a remaster for something that came out in 2023 but since she plays a major role in this years film, this must be something they have planned for people to get reacquainted with her character.

Until next time 👋
