Detective Conan Episode | 564
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.
“Clever boy. Yes, I killed Uzuki. He refused to join my ring. But you have no proof.”
“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.” Detective Conan Episode 564
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.
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 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.”
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. He refused to join my ring
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.
