Detective Conan Episode 564 Direct
She looks down. Her right palm, where she held the glass to pour the cyanide, faintly fluoresces. She lunges – but Conan’s soccer ball shot knocks the UV lamp onto her, illuminating her entire hand.
“Nonsense,” Kogoro scoffs, holding a suspicious 10,000-yen note under the light. “The watermark is wrong.”
“Clever boy. Yes, I killed Uzuki. He refused to join my ring. But you have no proof.” Detective Conan Episode 564
Conan investigates under Kogoro’s sleeping guise. The printer is a high-end laser model, but its power cord is unplugged – yet the print job finished. How?
“The most dangerous lies are not spoken. They are printed. In the quiet hum of a laser printer and the crisp feel of a new bill, a phantom counterfeiter has flooded Tokyo’s back-alley markets. But tonight, a routine visit to Dr. Agasa’s friend will turn into a deadly game of paper trails and ink.” She looks down
That night, they visit Uzuki’s workshop – a soundproofed room filled with scanners, printers, and UV lamps. Uzuki is found slumped over his desk, a faint smell of burnt paper and almonds (cyanide) in the air. A glass of whiskey sits nearby, half-empty. The police rule suicide – Uzuki had mounting debts.
Using his enhanced glasses, Conan zooms in on the paper tray. He finds a single, nearly invisible fiber of – the kind used in receipt printers. Aha. The counterfeit wasn’t printed on Uzuki’s machine. It was transferred. He refused to join my ring
Police arrest Saki. The counterfeiting ring is dismantled. As they leave, Ran asks Conan why he pocketed the first note. He smiles, holding it up: “Look at the serial number – 564. That’s not random. It’s the number of steps from Uzuki’s desk to the exit. He was trying to tell us something.”
Conan adjusts his voice-changer: “The whiskey glass – you wiped it clean, but you missed one thing. Uzuki’s lip balm contains a UV-reactive dye (for his photosensitive work). Your hand touched his glass – your palm still glows under blacklight.”
Fade to black. “Some messages are written in silence – and in paper.” Conan sits at Agasa’s table, staring at the note. He whispers, “If this is fake… who printed the real one?” The note’s watermark shifts slightly – revealing a hidden Crow silhouette. (Hint at the Black Organization’s involvement in currency forgery – a nod to future episodes.)
The episode opens on a rainy Saturday. Conan, Ran, and Kogoro are at Dr. Agasa’s house, where the professor introduces them to an eccentric retired press operator, . Uzuki claims he’s discovered a “perfect counterfeit” that even the Bank of Japan can’t distinguish.
