Ép. 332: Conan découvre la vérité derrière la mort d'Iwao Akashi tout en perdant la voix.

332

Conan discovers the truth in Iwao Akashi’s death but loses his voice in the process. He is certain that Hiroto, the victim’s adopted son, killed him despite having a perfect alibi. Conan drops hints, allowing Kogoro, Sonoko, and Yamamura to accuse Hiroto. As noted by Conan, the large amount of curry was actually in anticipation of the group’s arrival because he needed random people to witness Iwao’s supposed suicide. After serving his adoptive father dinner, Hiroto hung Iwao by his mouth using a rope covered in a napkin and tied his hands behind his back with the lamp string. When Iwao could no longer hold himself up with his mouth, the rope slips from his mouth, effectively hanging and killing him, pulling out two teeth in the process. After the corpse was found, Hiroto fabricated a story how Iwao was suicidal and had dental work done on his mouth; this is contradicted by the fact that he ate curry like everyone else. He hid one of the teeth in the curry to conceal the evidence. Hiroto states that regardless if he had witnesses or not, he would have carried out his murder anyway. He confesses that Iwao spoke harshly at his wife's funeral, not realizing he was behind him. Hiroto is arrested for murder. (Source: Wikipedia)
