Ep. 1033: Pemain Shogi yang Dibunuh dan Papan yang Kaki Satu

1033

On his way out of school, while the Detective Boys were talking about soccer, Conan was thinking about something else in the news. Nishikido, a shogi player who had disappeared in the wake of the eight-figure tournament, had been murdered and found dead. At the scene, there was a shogi board with one of its legs cut off. Conan and his friends are discussing the origin of the word "Yayakucho" from an article about the case that Conan had seen when Hideyoshi Haneda appears. Hideyoshi tells them that when he played against Nishikido, "I was not particularly impressed with him, but one time he came back from the bathroom and played a move that was so strange that it surprised me. When the Detective Boys see Hideyoshi looking clean-shaven and refreshed, they assume he has a date with his girlfriend Yumi, but Hideyoshi denies the date and leaves, saying he is meeting someone important. Then Yumi appears. Yumi had been following Hideyoshi because she was suspicious that he was getting dressed up and sneaking out more often. Conan is taken away by Yumi, who says, "It's harder to be noticed when you're with children. As Conan and Yumi continue to follow him, they see Hideyoshi buying a lot of donuts at a donut shop and talking to two women in a friendly manner. Conan and Yumi are so angry that they run out and tell Yumi that Hideyoshi was having a Shogi study session. The two women were Mizuna Katsumata and Shoko Uryu, both professional women's chess players. Kosuke Hishinuma, a professional shogi player, joins them and heads to the apartment where another participant, Yasuaki Genda, is waiting. However, Genda is found dead there. Beside him, there is a shogi board with a leg cut off. (Source: Wikipedia)
