Detective Conan Episode 406 🔥 High Speed
The main suspect becomes Yukie Sonoda herself. But she has a solid alibi: she was at a friend’s house for tea from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM that day, and then at a supermarket (recorded by security cameras) from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM. She couldn’t have driven to the mountain, killed him, and returned in that timeframe.
She arrived at the shrine before him (using a different route) and waited. When he arrived, groggy, she confronted him about the locket. In his drugged state, he confessed and begged for forgiveness. She then pushed him toward the cliff. He stumbled, fell, and hit his head on a rock, then rolled into the river.
Further down, at the bottom of the cliff, they can see the river rushing over rocks. Police divers are called in. They find the body of Keisuke Sonoda in the river. The cause of death is blunt force trauma to the head, consistent with a fall from the cliff. However, there are also traces of sleeping pills in his stomach. Detective Conan Episode 406
Kogoro (via Conan) reveals that the locket is the key piece of evidence. It is not at the crime scene, and when the police search Yukie’s house, they will find it hidden in her jewelry box. Inside, besides Miyuki’s photo, there will be Keisuke’s fingerprints and, more importantly, traces of the sleeping pills from his system that transferred onto the locket when she removed it from his neck.
Yukie discovered the truth about the locket one year ago. She found the old photo and recognized her sister. She realized her husband was the man who killed her sister. She pretended not to know, but she began planning her revenge. The main suspect becomes Yukie Sonoda herself
Yukie couldn’t kill him directly because she needed an alibi. So she tricked him. On the day of his disappearance, she asked him to meet her at the abandoned shrine at 7:30 PM, claiming she had discovered something important about his past. She gave him a bottle of water laced with sleeping pills. He drank it on the way, feeling drowsy.
The episode ends with Kogoro waking up, having no memory of the brilliant deduction. Ran is quiet, and Conan looks at a photograph of the Sonodas on their wedding day, wondering how something meant to heal could also destroy. She arrived at the shrine before him (using
Kogoro, Ran, and Conan drive to the area where Keisuke’s car signal was last detected. It is a narrow, winding mountain road surrounded by dense forest. After searching for a while, they spot a dark blue sedan crashed into a ditch off the side of the road. The car is empty, but the doors are unlocked.
She then went back to the car, smashed his watch to show 2:15 PM (the time she wanted to fake), took the locket as a trophy, and drove back to the city using a back road. Her alibi was airtight because she had carefully planned the timing—the drive from the mountain to her friend’s house and the supermarket was exactly 90 minutes, which she accounted for by leaving the shrine at 6:00 PM, not 7:30 PM. She had set Keisuke’s car clock forward by 5 hours earlier that morning, so he arrived at the shrine thinking it was 2:15 PM, but it was actually 7:15 PM.
Conan then looks into the locket. He asks Ran to investigate Yukie’s past. Ran discovers that Yukie had a younger sister named who died in a car accident ten years ago. In the accident, a drunk driver hit their car. The drunk driver? A young, promising architect named Keisuke Sonoda.
