File 541 - Sonoko's Red Handkerchief
Sonoko takes Ran and Conan to a maple forest in the mountains of Gunma Prefecture where a well-received romantic TV series was filmed. The protagonists are a young army officer and the daughter of a wealthy entrepreneur, and they meet each other after the officer is able to retrieve the girl’s red handkerchief from a maple tree. They then fall in love, but the officer is forced to flee the country as his boss is jealous about their relationship. They remain apart for several years, not hearing from each other, until one day the girl receives a telegraph in which the officer hints that they shall reunite in the “redness of the maple forest”, on the morning of new year’s eve. Since it is winter, no maple tree still has red leaves left, and the forest only has a thick white coat of snow. So the girl is unable to find the “redness” even after a long search. Just when she is about to give up and looks around for the last time, she spots a bright red handkerchief, prominently hanging on a bare maple tree. She runs towards the tree, and sees that her lover is indeed there. They immediately decide to elope and are forever happy afterwards. Since this scene (which is the last scene) is very touching, it has prompted a large number of fans to head to the forest and tie red handkerchiefs to trees themselves. As a result, they are at present ubiquitous in some parts of the forest. Sonoko, who is not expecting this situation, is deeply frustrated, as it squanders her plan to imitate the series (by tying a red handkerchief herself and sending a message to Makoto) and lure Makoto out for a romantic rendezvous (as he will not be able to distinguish between Sonoko's handkerchief and all the other ones).
Sonoko therefore decides to take all the other handkerchiefs off (very unrealistic), but she is interrupted by a man who claims to be part of the TV series crew. This person apologizes to Sonoko, explaining that it is indirectly his fault, as he was the one who gave the scriptwriter the idea of including a scene where a red handkerchief is tied to a tree (and he was in turn inspired after spotting one in the forest while searching for a place to film). The man also reveals that as the series became popular and fans bombarded TV stations with requests and inquiries, he was tasked to respond to them. For example, on that day, he has been asked by a fan to find the exact location of the tree with the original red handkerchief (i.e. the one that inspired him). He has found the tree, but has forgotten the number of the fan, and is too tired to go down to the inn where the fan stays in order to tell him that personally. Therefore he asks Ran and Sonoko to leave a message to the fan (so that the fan will know that the man is waiting for him or her at the spot where the last scene is filmed) in the guestbook of the inn. Ran and Sonoko agree to help, and ask how they should sign the message; the man replies that signing “Hozumi” in katakana will suffice.
The three visitors therefore set off for the inn, and in this way Sonoko forgets to tie her handkerchief. After leaving the message she realizes this and thus returns to the forest with Conan and Ran, and they discover that Hozumi has been stabbed (twice) and is dead. They also are able to find Hozumi’s notebook, which is lying on the forest floor some distance from his body; there is a bloodstain on the date April 1st.
File 542 - Name in Katakana
Conan notices the presence of a lot of dirt in Hozumi’s nails, and, from the relative warmth of his body, determines that he has been killed within the last 30 minutes. He also senses that a considerable number of people are hiding in the trees and bushes around him and watching every movement of theirs. However, Conan is unable to figure out who they are (he later asks the police about this, but they are not even aware of the existence of those people and only found an empty tent in the forest) or what they are up to. Detective Yamamura arrives after Ran calls the police; he turns out to be a fan of the TV series as well (and he started watching upon his grandmother's recommendation). After being informed of what happened, Yamamura makes some ridiculous deductions and then decides to head to the inn where Conan and company went previously in order to obtain further clues. After being shown a list of the inn's guests, Conan and Yamamura are able to narrow the suspects down to three people, who are named Isamu Okuma, Tatsuzo Watanuki and Hans Buckley respectively. Yamamura's questioning of them does not yield much useful information, as none of them has a valid alibi, and all claim that they do not know the TV series in question at all. Meanwhile, one of Yamamura's subordinates informs him that there is nobody in the TV series crew named Hozumi; this surprises both him and Conan, and prompts them to take a closer look at the list of crew members. Yamamura complains that the dates on the list are all messed up; the word “date” turns out to be a hint for Conan, and it allows him to quickly understand the meaning of the bloodstain on the date April 1st. He then runs back into the forest, finds a tree to which a single red handkerchief is tied, murmurs that Hozumi must have dug something up before meeting his killer and finds a human skull beneath the forest floor, directly under the handkerchief. On a tree behind Conan, someone is spying on him.
On the other hand, Sonoko is watching the international karate tournament that Makoto is participating in on live television (from Yamamura’s pad). She is very happy to hear the commentator mention that Makoto has a winning streak of 400 matches despite only being 18 years old.
