−
While sorting mail at Dr. Agasa's house, Conan finds a strange letter (an invitation to a tea party) which is adressed to Shinichi. The letter was sent from a man named Teji Moriya who is a famous architect. Conan calls Ran using his voice-changing bowtie to mimic Shinchi's voice and tells her he can't go to this tea party and if she would go in his place. He tells her to bring her dad, Kogoro Mouri and "that kid" (referring to Conan).  
+
=== Situation ===
 +
Daizo Kurokawa, a wealthy heart surgeon, was murdered in his own home, hit over the head with a statue. He left a dying message, grabbing the keys of his computer keyboard: JUN.

 +
 
 +
[[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], wrongly of course, deduces that the dying message pointed to the victim's second wife Mina, saying that "JUN" means June and since June is also called "minazuki" or dry month and Mina was born in June, he wanted to leave a hint that he was murdered by his own wife. Mina is furious. [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] hits Kogoro with his stun-wristwatch and begins explaining the actual facts of the case to the police and the three suspects.

[[File:Movie1a.jpg|thumb|200px|The culprit hits over Daizo's head.]]
 +
[[File:Movie1b.jpg|thumb|200px|Daizo is making the message "Ma-Na-Mi".]]
 +
The actual murderer was '''Manami Nagazawa''', the housekeeper of the Kurokawa family. The message wasn't supposed to be "JUN" because the computer keyboard was set to romaji instead of hiragana when the dying victim typed out his message. Switched to hiragana, the message reads "Ma-Na-Mi". Conan also makes Manami show everyone a bloodstain on her sock and she confesses. Her motive was revenge for her late husband, who died after a heart surgery performed by Daizo while he was drunk last year. Manami says she tried to find witnesses that Daizo got drunk before the surgery, but his colleagues were too scared to come forward. So, she decided to work for Daizo as a housekeeper and planned her revenge for this day, the first anniversary of her husband's death.</spoiler>

[[File:Movie1c.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Conan finds an unusual letter in his mail, an invitation to a party addressed to Shinichi.]]
 +
Then, Conan goes to [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s house, Conan looks through his mail and finds an unusual-looking letter adressed to [[Shinichi Kudo]], inviting Shinichi to a party.  
 +
The letter was sent by famous architect Teiji Moriya. Conan decides to call [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] using his [[Voice-Changing Bowtie|Voice-Changing Bowtie]] and tells her about the invitation, asking her to go to the party in his stead because he is "too busy with his case" and that Kogoro and "that boy who lives with you" can join her as well.
 +
 
 +
Ran accepts, under the condition that Shinichi joins her for a movie the following Saturday. Conan, horrified, tries to get her to agree to a later date but she insists it has to be on Saturday, May 3. She also asks "Shinichi" if he prefers red or blue. Conan, confused, replies red is his favourite colour and says goodbye to Ran. He has no idea why Ran insists on meeting Shinichi on May 3. On the way home, he meets [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] who introduces him to another constable working in his department, [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]].
 +
 
 +
At home, Ran tells Conan and Kogoro that she is going on a date with Shinichi on May 3. She wants to take Shinichi to a late showing at the cinema and, at midnight, surprise him with a red polo shirt because he said red was his favourite colour. Conan suddenly remembers that Shinichi birthday is on May 4. Ran also explains about the tea party invitation and Kogoro isn't exactly enthusiastic about going, so Conan comes up with a trick to convince him.
  
−
Ran says she will do it only if he goes to a movie with her on Saturday; Conan trys to make her change the date but she is determined that it has to be on May 3rd. She then asks him whats his favourite color: Red or Blue to which he responds Red. Conan leaves the pay phone and while walking home trying to figure why she wants it to be on May 3rd. While on the way home he meets Inspector Megure who introduces him to Inpsector Shiratori.  
+
[[File:Movie1d.jpg|thumb|200px|Kogoro is pondering Moriya's quiz.]]
 +
On April 29, Kogoro, Ran and Conan attend the tea party at Teiji Moriya's house and explain that Shinichi couldn't make it, but Kogoro came instead, delighting their host at having "another famous detective" as his guest. Moriya greets his guests and gives them a riddle, telling everyone that whoever solves it first gets a private tour of his gallery, with the photos of fourteen works. Conan quickly figures it out and Moriya takes him and Ran upstairs. They chat with the famous architect and Ran says that she is going on a date with Shinichi and they will go watch a film in a building designed by Moriya.
  
−
While eating dinner with Ran and Mouri, Ran tells Conan she's taking Shinichi to the movies on May 3rd and when it hits midnight she will give her gift to him (which is a red polo shirt). Conan then realizes that May the 4th is his birthday.  
+
The following day, Ran goes shopping and Conan meets Professor Agasa, asking for his help because he has no idea what to do about his date with Ran. Agasa's TV is on and they watch the news. Someone stole a large quantity of octane from a plant, a gas used to make plastic explosives.
  
−
Conan tricks Mouri into going to the tea party as Mouri doesn't want to go in the first place. They meet Moriya Teji and tell him that Shinichi couldnt make it but that Mouri is another famous detective. Moriya gives everyone a quiz and asks them to solve it. Conan is the first to solve it so he gets to go to see his gallery with Ran. While observing the pictures Ran tells Moriya that shes going to the movies with Shinichi and is going to be watching it in one of the buildings he designed.

The next day Ran goes out to get some food and Conan goes to Agasa's house. Trying to think of what to do for his movie "date" with Ran. A news station on T.V. reported that someone stole lots of Octogen which is the main component for plastic explosives. Right after, Dr. Agasa recieves a phone call asking to talk to Shinichi, the man using a voice changing device tells Shinichi that he is the one who stole the Octogen and tells him to give his mobile phone number to him. Conan tells him his number and the man tells him to go to Greenbelt park or else the kids will die.  
+
Worried, Agasa switches the TV off and his phone rings suddenly. Someone using a voice changing device asks for Shinichi so Agasa hands his phone over. The unknown caller explains that he is the one who stole the octane and asks for Shinichi's phone number. Conan gives it to him and the man tells him "go to Greenbelt Park or the kids will die."
  
−
Conan uses his Skateboard and rushes to Greenbelt park where he finds: Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko playing with a remote controlled plane. Mitshuko tells Conan a man with a moustache and a beard gave it to them. Conan notices that there is a bomb on the plane so he takes the controller away from Mitsuhiko but he refuses to give it to him since its Genta's turn. Conan tells them there is a bomb on it and they drop it and the antenna breaks. The plane is now flying uncontrolled so Conan uses his Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes and kicks the Controller into the Plane blowing it up. Conan then realizes this isnt a prank and then gets another call telling him about another bomb.  
+
Conan hurries to Greenbelt Park and sees his friends [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] playing with a remote controlled plane. Mitsuhiko explains to Conan that a strange man with a beard offered the plane to them. Conan has a closer look and notices that there is a bomb attached to the plane, telling Ayumi to let go of it immediately. Ayumi drops the toy and the antenna on top of the plane breaks, causing it to begin flying around uncontrollably. Conan uses his [[Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes]] and kicks the controller into the plane, blowing it up.
  
−
When Conan was searching for the second bomb, he only manages to bring to a deserted place before it blows up which sends Conan flying into a tree. He wakes up in the Hospital. They get another notice that theres more bombs planted on a train track. Using Conan's help they defuse them all. Later that day Conan, Megure, Shiratori and Mouri go to Moriya's house...
+
Conan, Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko escape in time. When Conan looks at the flames created by the exploding plane, he realises that the bomb was actually filled with plastic explosives and that this was a serious incident.

Conan locates the second bomb and only just about gets it to a deserted place before it blows up. He is knocked back by the blast and hits a tree, falling unconscious.

Conan wakes up in hospital. Agasa says the culprit could have a grudge to settle with Shinichi and Megure agrees. They try to remember Shinichi's most famous cases to see if that provides any hint to the bomber's identity. Megure recalls a past case that was solved by Shinichi.

Conan figures out the hint- the bombs are located "between" the "rail tracks" ("X" the "XX") based on the bomber's other hints to keep the trains going above 60 km/h and that the bombs would explode at sunset. They realise the bombs are using solar power to reset their timers. As sunset approaches, the police help navigate the trains off the tracks and are able to safely recover all five bombs.

Megure and Shiratori, together with Conan and Kogoro, go to question Moriya.

<spoiler>Conan figures out that the famous architect '''Teiji Moriya''' has been the bomber all along. He was driven to this due to his obsession with symmetry. His plan was to blow up his older, less symmetrical works (Kurokawa, Mizushima, Yasuda, and Akutsu buildings, and Sumida canal bridge) and replace them with symmetrical structures (all of the bomb targets were either at or near buildings he designed). His hatred for Shinichi is due to the fact that, because of him, Mayor Okamoto (who supported his "Perfect Nishitama City") was arrested, and his building plan was stopped. With his crimes exposed, Moriya attempts to detonate the bombs inside his house, but is stopped when Conan reveals that he removed the batteries earlier when he planted some fake evidence (Moriya's disguise outfits) to lure him into spilling the beans. However, Moriya taunts the group that he has "one more" place that he wants to destroy.

[[File:Movie1g.jpg|thumb|200px|Conan contacts Ran (using his tie to mimic his Shinichi voice) and tells her that she must find and disarm the bomb.]]
 +
Several bombs are revealed to be in the mall where Ran is. They explode and many civilians get trapped in the building. Conan (who enters the building after the first explosion) contacts Ran (using his tie to mimic his Shinichi voice) and tells her that she must find and disarm the last and largest bomb. Ran finds the box with the bomb. Conan, who is now separated from Ran by a damaged door, guides her through cutting various wires using plans left by Moriya. Ran is down to two wires, a red one and a blue one. The plans do not include any instructions regarding these two wires. If the wrong one is cut, it would result in the bomb detonating.
 +
 
 +
Conan loses hope, since this means that there's almost no way to keep the bomb from exploding, and tells Ran to do as she likes, since they are going to die together at this rate. Conan is then found by rescue workers and taken out of the building while realizing then the red wire is booby-trapped. However, Ran can no longer hear Conan's instructions, so he believes her to be in trouble. To his surprise, Ran cuts the "blue wire" and saves everyone. While Kogoro has all credit with the press for the resolution, since Shinichi has of course requested to not reveal his involvement and then he left to believe the culprit's target was Ran's father, Conan asks Ran why she didn't cut the red wire (her lucky color). She replies that she didn't cut because she didn't want to sever the red string of fate between her and Shinichi.

Another bomb is revealed to be in the mall where Ran is. It exploes and both and many others get trapped in the building, but Conan (who is at the other side of the building) contacts Ran (using his tie to mimick his Shinichi voice) and tells her she must find and disarm the bomb. Ran finds the box with the bomb and cuts through various wires using plans left by Leo and learns that one wire is booby-trapped. Ran is down to 2 wires, a red one and a blue one.  
+
The movie ends with Conan remarking that there is no "red string", and mentions that it's because "it's no use... as long as I'm Conan".</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
−
</spoiler>
+
* According to ''[[Wikipedia: Red thread of fate|The Legend of Red Thread]]'' poster, the movie's original author is Issei Shinnai and it is directed by Shunzo Kano while starring [[Minami Takayama|Sansei Takayama]] and [[Wakana Yamazaki|Wakkanai Yamazaki]].
 +
* In the flashback scene, Kohei Okamoto and his father drive a 1996 silver Toyota Crown Majesta S150. The license plate number is 新宿 33, す 32-59 (Shinjuku 33, Su 32-59).
 +
* The TR Beika Line in real-life is [[Wikipedia: Yamanote Line|JR Yamanote Line]] and the JR Tokyo inspired from [[Wikipedia: 205 series|JR Yamanote Line 205-0 series set 30]].
 +
* The scene with the bombs on the city loop line, which involves the trains needing to go over 60 kmph, is a reference to the action thriller movie ''[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_(1994_film) Speed]'', starring Keanu Reeves, in which a bus has a bomb placed on board that will detonate should the speed of the bus drop below 60 mph. Agasa even mentions that a speed detector could be related to the detonator, which is a direct and clear reference to that film.
 +
* First visible proof of Conan having a phone for just Shinichi, which is probably different from Conan's phone, although this is not canon.
 +
* The name of Moriya Teiji is a pun on the name of Sherlock Holmes' antagonist [[Wikipedia: Professor Moriarty|Professor James Moriarty]] if written as "Moriarty J."
 +
* Beika City Building is modeled after the [[Wikipedia: Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building|Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building]], the Mizushima Mansion after the [[Wikipedia: Nymphenburg Palace|Nymphenburg Palace]], the Yasuda Mansion after the [[Wikipedia: Johnston–Felton–Hay House|Johnston-Felton-Hay House]], and the Akutsu Mansion after [[Wikipedia: Natchez On-Top-of-the-Hill Historic District|Glen Auburn]].
 +
* This movie features voice actors that do not normally perform voice acting. Yomiuri TV announcer [[wikipedia:ja:野村明大|Meidai Nomura]] voices announcer Satoshi Yokoyama, and Shuji Kawatani and Hiroyuki Kohori of comedy duo [[wikipedia:ja:2丁拳銃|2-cho Kenju]] voice train passengers.

Case

Situation

Daizo Kurokawa, a wealthy heart surgeon, was murdered in his own home, hit over the head with a statue. He left a dying message, grabbing the keys of his computer keyboard: JUN.

Murder

Movie1 Case1.jpg

Location: Kurokawa household, Tokyo forest
Victim: Daizo Kurokawa
Age: 62 years old
Cause of death: Blunt-force trauma
Suspects: Mina Kurokawa, Daisuke Kurokawa, and Manami Nagazawa
While the victim sat at his computer, the culprit snuck up behind and hit him over the head with a statue.

Kogoro, wrongly of course, deduces that the dying message pointed to the victim's second wife Mina, saying that "JUN" means June and since June is also called "minazuki" or dry month and Mina was born in June, he wanted to leave a hint that he was murdered by his own wife. Mina is furious. Conan hits Kogoro with his stun-wristwatch and begins explaining the actual facts of the case to the police and the three suspects.

Conan finds an unusual letter in his mail, an invitation to a party addressed to Shinichi.

Then, Conan goes to Professor Agasa's house, Conan looks through his mail and finds an unusual-looking letter adressed to Shinichi Kudo, inviting Shinichi to a party. The letter was sent by famous architect Teiji Moriya. Conan decides to call Ran using his Voice-Changing Bowtie and tells her about the invitation, asking her to go to the party in his stead because he is "too busy with his case" and that Kogoro and "that boy who lives with you" can join her as well.

Ran accepts, under the condition that Shinichi joins her for a movie the following Saturday. Conan, horrified, tries to get her to agree to a later date but she insists it has to be on Saturday, May 3. She also asks "Shinichi" if he prefers red or blue. Conan, confused, replies red is his favourite colour and says goodbye to Ran. He has no idea why Ran insists on meeting Shinichi on May 3. On the way home, he meets Megure who introduces him to another constable working in his department, Ninzaburo Shiratori.

At home, Ran tells Conan and Kogoro that she is going on a date with Shinichi on May 3. She wants to take Shinichi to a late showing at the cinema and, at midnight, surprise him with a red polo shirt because he said red was his favourite colour. Conan suddenly remembers that Shinichi birthday is on May 4. Ran also explains about the tea party invitation and Kogoro isn't exactly enthusiastic about going, so Conan comes up with a trick to convince him.

Kogoro is pondering Moriya's quiz.

On April 29, Kogoro, Ran and Conan attend the tea party at Teiji Moriya's house and explain that Shinichi couldn't make it, but Kogoro came instead, delighting their host at having "another famous detective" as his guest. Moriya greets his guests and gives them a riddle, telling everyone that whoever solves it first gets a private tour of his gallery, with the photos of fourteen works. Conan quickly figures it out and Moriya takes him and Ran upstairs. They chat with the famous architect and Ran says that she is going on a date with Shinichi and they will go watch a film in a building designed by Moriya.

The following day, Ran goes shopping and Conan meets Professor Agasa, asking for his help because he has no idea what to do about his date with Ran. Agasa's TV is on and they watch the news. Someone stole a large quantity of octane from a plant, a gas used to make plastic explosives.

Worried, Agasa switches the TV off and his phone rings suddenly. Someone using a voice changing device asks for Shinichi so Agasa hands his phone over. The unknown caller explains that he is the one who stole the octane and asks for Shinichi's phone number. Conan gives it to him and the man tells him "go to Greenbelt Park or the kids will die."

Conan hurries to Greenbelt Park and sees his friends Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko playing with a remote controlled plane. Mitsuhiko explains to Conan that a strange man with a beard offered the plane to them. Conan has a closer look and notices that there is a bomb attached to the plane, telling Ayumi to let go of it immediately. Ayumi drops the toy and the antenna on top of the plane breaks, causing it to begin flying around uncontrollably. Conan uses his Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes and kicks the controller into the plane, blowing it up.

Conan, Ayumi, Genta, and Mitsuhiko escape in time. When Conan looks at the flames created by the exploding plane, he realises that the bomb was actually filled with plastic explosives and that this was a serious incident.

As he goes home, his phone rings again and someone says there is going to be another bomb waiting for him.

Bombing

Vlcsnap-2013-12-31-03h05m14s67.jpg

Location: Park
Suspects: Unknown bomber
Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko were given a toy plane with plastic bombs attached to it by a mysterious man. Conan manages to safely destroy the plane and nobody gets hurt.
Bombing

Movie1e.jpg

Location: Road
Victim: Conan Edogawa
Injury: Improvised explosive device in cat box
Suspects: Unknown bomber
A second bomb is planted in a cat box alongside a stray cat, which was taken by an unaware old lady. Conan "borrows" a bicycle from a boy to catch up with her and manages to take the bomb to a riverside, where it explodes away from other people. This time, Conan suffers several injuries in the explosion.

Conan locates the second bomb and only just about gets it to a deserted place before it blows up. He is knocked back by the blast and hits a tree, falling unconscious.

Conan wakes up in hospital. Agasa says the culprit could have a grudge to settle with Shinichi and Megure agrees. They try to remember Shinichi's most famous cases to see if that provides any hint to the bomber's identity. Megure recalls a past case that was solved by Shinichi.

Accident (past)

Movie1 Case2.jpg

Location: Nishitama City
Victim: Office worker
Age: 25 years old
Cause of death: Hit by a car
Suspects: Kohei Okamoto and his father
A year ago, while driving and smoking, Kohei Okamoto accidentally fatally hit a young woman. However, something doesn't match.

Shinichi was called by Megure to help investigations.

There has been another bomb threat, this time somehow related to the train system. The threat carried another cryptic hint, "X the XX".

Planned bombing

Vlcsnap-2013-12-31-03h08m20s200.jpg

Location: Train tracks and a bridge on Yamanote line
Suspects: Unknown bomber
Five bombs were planted on the train tracks. The police instruct the drivers to keep speeding up the trains or else the bombs will explode.

Conan figures out the hint- the bombs are located "between" the "rail tracks" ("X" the "XX") based on the bomber's other hints to keep the trains going above 60 km/h and that the bombs would explode at sunset. They realise the bombs are using solar power to reset their timers. As sunset approaches, the police help navigate the trains off the tracks and are able to safely recover all five bombs.

Megure and Shiratori, together with Conan and Kogoro, go to question Moriya.

    Anime

    • The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:
    • Daizo Kurokawa - Magnum Cornhouser
    • Mina Kurokawa - Mina Cornhouser
    • Daisuke Kurokawa - Mortimer Cornhouser
    • Manami Nakazawa - Manami Goodsbe
    • Teiji Moriya - Leo Joel
    • In the English Dub, the name of Manami's husband is Kevin. He was not named in the original version.

    • Teiji Moriya is said to be from the UK, specifically England in the Funimation dub, and speaks with a British accent.

    Trivia

    • According to The Legend of Red Thread poster, the movie's original author is Issei Shinnai and it is directed by Shunzo Kano while starring Sansei Takayama and Wakkanai Yamazaki.
    • In the flashback scene, Kohei Okamoto and his father drive a 1996 silver Toyota Crown Majesta S150. The license plate number is 新宿 33, す 32-59 (Shinjuku 33, Su 32-59).
    • The TR Beika Line in real-life is JR Yamanote Line and the JR Tokyo inspired from JR Yamanote Line 205-0 series set 30.
    • The scene with the bombs on the city loop line, which involves the trains needing to go over 60 kmph, is a reference to the action thriller movie Speed, starring Keanu Reeves, in which a bus has a bomb placed on board that will detonate should the speed of the bus drop below 60 mph. Agasa even mentions that a speed detector could be related to the detonator, which is a direct and clear reference to that film.
    • First visible proof of Conan having a phone for just Shinichi, which is probably different from Conan's phone, although this is not canon.
    • The name of Moriya Teiji is a pun on the name of Sherlock Holmes' antagonist Professor James Moriarty if written as "Moriarty J."
    • Beika City Building is modeled after the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, the Mizushima Mansion after the Nymphenburg Palace, the Yasuda Mansion after the Johnston-Felton-Hay House, and the Akutsu Mansion after Glen Auburn.
    • This movie features voice actors that do not normally perform voice acting. Yomiuri TV announcer Meidai Nomura voices announcer Satoshi Yokoyama, and Shuji Kawatani and Hiroyuki Kohori of comedy duo 2-cho Kenju voice train passengers.
