Everything about Detective Conan:

Summary 6

The first case in this session is called “The Seven Detectives” or “And Then There Were None.” It begins with Kogoro, Ran and Conan in a car to “The Sunset Mansion.” The mansion is not bright and sunny but as Kogoro says “more like Dracula’s castle.” Kogoro was invited to the mansion by “the phantom child that god abandoned,” and given a 2 million yen check. That is the only reason why they’re there. They had just stopped at a gas station while back and they’re driving to the mansion while talking about monsters, Ran’s afraid of course, when Kogoro breaks because someone is blocking the road (while screaming about an ogre ^^). It’s an old lady.

She turns out to be a detective on the way to the mansion. Her name is Furoyo Senma. They get there and they run into the other detectives invited. The first one Kogoro meets (while Ran rushes to the bathroom) is Harufumi Mogi, then Shukuzen Ogami, the maid (who is not a detective and was given the job through a very strange interview), then Ikumi Souda who was looking at something on the stairs.

Turns out she’s spraying Luminol all over the place noting that there is blood spilt all over the place.

And that is when the only teenaged detective that could make it walks down the stairs. (Heiji couldn’t make it cause of midterm exams ^^). Very dramatically he walks down, with his pet hawk Watson on his arm – Hakuba Saguru.

So they all start mingling and settling – and playing poker which in the DC world basically can be summed up to losing to Ran. Ikumi points out that two of Ran’s cards are stuck together – turns out by blood and her dad, like any father, asks her what’s wrong. It’s revealed the massacre of the mansion happened there and Ran freaks and jumps to her dad for protection, who looks at her surprised.

At that point the maid comes in and announces that the master has called them to dinner.

The master is a hooded figure who introduces them by saying, “The six detectives! Thank you for joining me at the Sunset Mansion! Please sit down...”

He wants the detectives to find the treasure that was hidden somewhere in the mansion.

“By risking your life.”

Suddenly there is an explosion outside.

It’s Harufumi’s expensive car – and all the others. He goes on like all evil villains trapping people in one place that there’s no escape, surrender to your fate, you might live if I get the treasure, etc. Harufumi isn’t exactly pleased with all of this (his car is very important to him) and pulls the hood of the figure. It’s a speaker on a dummy.

Kogoro is surprised and asks, “Then who asked us here?” Of course all the other detectives kind of chuckle and say, “Don’t you know? It was on the invitation – the “Phantom Child” that God abandoned – a phantom is magical – child written a certain way in Japanese means it’s referring to an animal – the child that God abandoned stands for a goat, a story in the Bible – in English a baby goat is called-”

“Kid,” finishes Hakuba in English, “Kid the Phantom Thief.”

They talk about Kid for a little while Conan thinks to himself that Kid is already here in the mansion. He already feels Kid’s cold eerie presence.

“I don’t know what your planning but can you go through with this? With these 7 detectives around you?”

(Okay if you had been counting how many detectives there were you realize there are six – Kogoro, Senma, Harufumi, Shikuzen, Ikumi, and Hakuba. So who’s the seventh detective? I think it should be painfully obvious guys ^^).

Quick back story on Hakuba. His mother is British and his father in an Inspector in the Tokyo PD. So because Hakuba was a rising teen detective star, his father asked Nakamori to let Hakuba tag along and try to capture Kid. Like Shinichi he’s never failed at a case. But of course everyone fails to capture Kid – so basically that’s what Hakuba is dedicated to. The funny thing is he goes to the same school as Kaito and Hakuba knows Kaito is Kid – he just doesn’t have the evidence to prove it. ^^)

Anyway they go on to debate whether Kid would try to kill anyone because the recording made it seem that basically it would be their last meal.

They eat, wary if the cups, plates and utensil should have poison on them. Nothing happens and Senma suggests that perhaps it was their imaginations. Hakuba replies curtly, “No we can’t jump to conclusions yet.”

Then the recording starts going off again. And begins to explain the story of the Crow Association. Half a century ago they mysteriously disappeared. Everything in the house is marked with the seal of the crow – meaning the mansion was built and owned by the association.

One night all of the highest members were invited to the mansion – to honor the death of one of the older members you had died at age 99. The memorial was actually an auction to sell off all of the things he had been collecting. It was supposed to last three days. On the second night two men soaking wet arrived to the mansion asking for shelter. The leader refused them but they gave him a leaf and told him to roll it in paper like a cigarette and smoke it. After smoking it for a while the leader let them in. They began to pass out more leaves and soon everyone was smoking and getting in a happy mood. Of course the leaf was marijuana.

But soon chaos broke out. One man was running around the mansion clutching the antique vase he bought. Another woman cried until she was out of tears, and then one man started slashing his wrist with a pen. Soon everyone was fighting over the things for auction and were killing each other. Leaving eight dead and many dying the two men that had arrived disappeared with the auction items.

Kogoro questions if it was such a big case how come they, the best detectives in the country had never heard of it. The only conclusion is that someone very important is among the dead. The police can’t tell who killed who or who the two men are.

The figure starts speaking again and gives them a hint.

“The night that the two devils arrived, the devils possessed people and the King clutched his treasures and ran around the room, the queen cried for forgiveness and the knight drew his own blood.”

Ran replies, “Isn’t that the story we just heard?” Nonetheless it is the hint. And the killing between them will begin when the first scream is out. Harufumi starts pretending he’s choking on poison but then starts to leave. That’s when Shikuzen starts gasping and falls out of his seat to land on the floor unconscious. Harufumi looks at him and says, “Hey it’s not funny the second time around.”

Hakuba bends over him.

“Pulse stopped at 10:34 and 51 seconds.”

They determine it’s cyanide but it’s not in the tea.

Harufumi gets mad at the figure and starts shaking it. A tape player/ recorder falls out. The serving times had been preset and everything which means as Conan so eloquently puts it, “That the criminal was trying to kill Shikuzen from the start – and that the criminal maybe one of us.”

They discuss what’s going on (like all good detectives should when they are together) and then Ran, with a very concerned look on her face says, “But the criminal we’re talking about it the Kaitou Kid right? I’ve heard that he doesn’t kill people but...”

Hakuba agrees, “Yes from what I know this is the first.”

While they talk about that Conan notices something about Shikuzen’s hand.

They go outside and check out the cars. Yes all the ones that were parked at the front of the house were blown up. But they do realize that there was an extra car. Ran says, “Then there can be someone in the mansion other than us?!” The maid is scared for a moment that her car, which she parked out back must be gone too. They go and check it out and the car is intact. They want to go down and check if the bridge really is out. Conan suggests that they flip coins. Senma picks up the one farthest from her and the rest get their coins. They flip.

So Kogoro, Senma and Harufumi are to go and check the bridge. As the car is leaving below them Conan notices it has and X taped on the roof, Conan wonders if that’s on purpose and then looks back at Hakuba – who has a smirk on his face.

Over at the out of order bridge Kogoro and Harufumi are checking things out when the car, with Senma-san inside blows up and falls over the cliff. Harufumi guesses that it was set to explode if the lights were tampered with.

The others find out when they all meet back at the mansion and decide to investigate the mansion. They split up but realize that Hakuba isn’t with them...

In the piano room Kogoro, Harufumi and Conan find a code – which Conan automatically knows what it means. Around the piano they notice moisture and Harufumi mentions that Ikumi had been spraying luminol there. They turn off the light in the room....

In the bathroom Ikumi puts Ran and the maid asleep using something on a rag.

Back in the piano room they realize a message is written there in blood, something which Kogoro looks very confident about...

Back in the bathroom Hakuba comes out and confronts Ikumi....

Kogoro and Harufumi hear a gunshot and run out, they see Hakuba laying on the floor dead. They hears steps running up the stair case a follow in pursuit. Upon entering the room they see Ikumi dead, the doorknob booby trapped.

Harufumi then turns on Kogoro sure he is the culprit. Kogoro falls down, shot through the heart.

Harufumi takes out a cigarette, only to find it laced with cyanide...

We then see the black figure sitting in their hiding place, sure that they are safe, only to be shaken up by “The seventh detective invited to this mansion...”

The culprit runs down the stairs and then sees Conan – who explains just how she did everything and that he knew from the beginning, and reveals the secret of the mansion, everything is made of gold... and everyone was in on the plan to lure her out.

A helicopter arrives to pick them up and as they are flying away when Senma jumps out of the plane in an attempt to commit suicide.

Kogoro however jumps out after her and reveals that it was actually the Kaitou Kid the whole time...

Senma actually jumped out because any minute now Conan and Hakuba were going to catch him and he hadn’t noticed...

Kid flies away and turns everyone’s attention to the “Golden mansion” that is literally made of gold (when Conan revealed the secret of the mansion a switch started up).

The real Kogoro the whole time was back at the gas station...
