I'll be storytiming the manga, one complete case per day. Most cases are around 3-6 chapters long. Feel free to drop in at any time, since it's mostly episodic.Case 124: Convenience Store Mystery Previous case:>>284538826

File 428: An Unbelievable Conclusion
>>284559716>Conan became a grim reaper just to get high on deductions
>>284559410>i turn off the light after business hourswhat a fucking retard
Done. Now we need a chapter about Ran teaching Shinichi karate.There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>284559782Almost at motivated Kogoros level.
>>284559841>My teacher is a pedophile?
Where are we compare to anime episodes right now?I'm dumb and i cant find it in the conan wiki
>>284559716>RachelOw man...
>>284559841So Ran doesn’t find it odd she has pictures of Conan and never reconsiders her original belief that he’s jimmy?
>>284559410>Nah, keeping the cameras on for one night to catch the thief would be too expensive
>>284559822This guy is pretty reasonable, huh?He was willing to forgive Aya again, and then even hires the thief on the spot.
>>284560301episode 344>>284559841Thanks OPI hope everyone is buckled up for tomorrow
>>284559639Oh, thank goodness.I almost thought Rachel would solve a mystery on her own.
>>284559686>>284559695Ohhhhh I think I get it.The businessman lets everyone use the bathroom first because he's the one stealing. He's taking things from the hallway, shoving them up his ass in the bathroom, and leaving.If anyone else went after him, they'd notice.
>>284560709>He was willing to forgive Aya again, He was in the wrong in the first place, so he had to apologize with his false accusations.>and then even hires the thief on the spot.It's hard running a convenience store especially when he's old, he's desperate for employees, but it is a nice gesture.
>>284561829>He was in the wrong in the first place, so he had to apologize with his false accusations.I mean prior to this.Thieving continued to happen on her shifts, he told her off for it on pretty reasonable suspicions but was willing to let it slide.Thieving resumed later and he was STILL willing to forgive her.Of course he had to apologize at the end.
>>284549583NTA but I wish he did someone from Western shows, like True Detective or The Mentalist
>>284559753I guess the culprit at once but couldn't figure out why. My bad.
>>284562107I don't think there was that much to go on as for who it was.I seem to recall it being mentioned that the reason he bought razors and shit specifically was that if those were stolen, it'd limit the possible suspects, but I didn't see that in the chapter at all.
>>284559753>"OH MY GOD"!Jodie's reaction is so funny. Maybe an American shouldn't be so surprised about that though, they see the homeless all the time and have heard tales of squatters.
I guess you have to be as smart as Conan to solve this new captcha.
>>284559410>Installed camera to prevent burglar>Turn it off during the peak hour of burglarIs he fucking retard?
>>284559410nigga why the FUCK do you even have a cctv if you're not gonna use it for what the thing is literally made foralso i'm not sure how it was back then but cctv electricity usage is pretty negligible
>>284559493Serena once again showing why she's the best girl. I love haafu's
>>284559316Oh shit, for real?I must have never seen this case, didn't knew the two were connected
>>284559361>I'm almost jealous>CoAi eating goodGOSHO YOU FUCKER IF I CATCH YOU I-
>>284559410>understaffed>wants to fire staff>installs security cameras>turns them offThat's some peak management level
>>284559461Holy shit detective Ran is on the case!... this might not go so bad after all: Ran is quite keen on little details. She's not the good mindset to solve murders, but this is not a murder case.
>>284559547That clerk is either a Tuckerization or an assistant drew him. That's not Gosho's pen.
>>284559577NO WAY I JUST GOT IT NOW!I always thought that Jodie saying "a secret makes a woman a woman" was just a misdirection for the reader to equate Jodie and Vermouth. Instead it's likely Jodie heard it straight from Vermouth's mouth!
>>284559841thank anon, nothing weird going on here
>>284565755Yeah there's a particular style to these "not a suspect/victim" characters, be it from a particular assistant or it being a thing all assistant over the years can do.
>>284559316Early Vermouth is so pretty. I'm not sure how to put it to words, but she looks way more attractive here compared to her later appearances, even when she keeps flashing her tiddies 24/7. Maybe it's true that "a secret is what gives a woman her allure" and it only seemed that way because right now we only barely see a few glimpses of her
>>284565627He takes advice from the stingy granny, maybe she advised him to do that so she can do her own illegal activities there.
>>284565817It's really both, not only did the flashback come after we already saw Jodie say the quote, but we are still not told who the little girl and the killer woman are in relation to Jodie.
>>284559354>it's the secret that makes woman woman
>>284568935No matter how translated, it always sounds to me like she is advertising cosmetics.
>>284568935ESL here how do you say this in english so it doesn't sound weird and esl
>A secret is what makes a woman, a woman
>What is a woman? A miserable little pile of secrets. But enough talk, have at you!
>>284569586>The essence of femininity is inextricably linked to the retention of secrets.
>>284569619>what's a woman?a woman is a spectrum of identity that you can choose to be
>>284559639OUR PRECIOUS JIMMY
>>284570327Why are women like this?
>>284559383Cutie. Sadly enough, she will probably be involved in the case.
>>284569784>an honest woman loses the right to call herself a woman
How has Yoko not fucked Kogoro yet? I would be on his dick in a heartbeat
>>284570854You think a very successful idol would risk everything over some deadbeat private eye? Her fans would be tearing them both apart if there is so much as a suspicion of her purity.
>>284559427I say it was the old lady. She taught the manager to keep the lights off at night so she could get away with theft more easily.
>>284565755>That clerk is either a TuckerizationLike his design was based off a real person? How can you tell the pen is different, the facial hair strands stand out?
Unfamiliar with the English localization. Why are only the main characters' names that get anglicised and not the case characters? From what I saw the previous Funimation standard was to change all the names
>>284559316Dayum, so Jodie aka Vermouth was the one who killed Haibara's dad. No wonder the girl seemed so traumatized with her.
Oh man, I can hardly wait for the next case to get posted, it's going to be a really wild ride.
>>284573172Your guess is as good as oursMaybe they thought gaijin couldn't relate to scary nihonese names so decided to change only them since they are our main characters
Ran's chest is bigger than I remember
>>284575615Ran's rans - a sight from which no one ever ran.
>>284559361"I'm going to crack a case" is the detective equivalent of "I'm just going to get some cigarettes"
>>284559410For a second I thought he was reasonable because he made sure to check before accusing her. But what a fucking moron!
>>284559418>Cutting in lineGamers deserve bullying!
>>284559482
>>284559517Sweaty scared gamer girl...
>>284559602
>>284559841Thx mate
In defense of the owner, there were no signs of a break-in and nobody would break in a store at night to steal so little.But as stingy as he would be, it is a bit convoluted that he would bother to stake-out outside of the store all night several times instead of just leaving the cameras on for a week.
>>284573172Allegedly a mandate from Japan in the name of marketing consistency.Note that they stopped using localized names for new important characters past the point the Funimation anime ended.
>>284576400I don't get it?
>>284576810Can the cameras see in the dark?
>>284577598I honestly have no idea but I assume that any camera that is marketed as a "security camera" should.
>>284577434
>>284577766>Conan solved the case and everything was fine>Ai later died of a cold
SHINE!
I'm in a pretty big traffic jam, so today's case could get a little delayed.
>>284581083Is there a bus with robbers in front of you by any chance?
>>284568984>>284569586>Mystery is what makes a woman feminine.I'd probably say it something like that.

>>284583572The plot thickens
>>284583030Holy shit, so many things happening at once
File 434: Rotten Apple
>>284583172I take full responsibility and accept my punishment. As long as Sato watches.
>>284583736>>284583748Get fucked, Jimmychi. Now you know how it feels.
>>284583346>>284583368Is that actually why they're called cocktails?
>>284583750>As long as Sato watches.Why? Are you trying to traumatize her like Matsuda?
>>284583485I see. Jodie was never with the black organization, but the glowing organization.
>>284582594Is it Heiji again?
Done. Sonoko's witch dress looks stunning. There is always only one truth! See you tomorrow!
>>284583511So Dr. Araide had a famous American actress come visit his clinic as a patient? I would be star-struck.
>>284583186
>>284583925Thanks, OPMan, I was not prepared for that plot twist.
>>284582740What a weird bit. Obviously they left it running to fool whoever is spying on them, but Ai doesn't even think about that.
>>284583925Thanks OPA lot has happened in this case, maybe more than in any case ever before. But I just want to say this: Vermouth sexo.
>>284582759So what's the significance of that mummy being left handed?
>>284582638more like 6769 amirite
>>284582549jeez sonoko is so fine
>>284583802>M-my cold blooded murderer cannot be that distressed!
>>284583405Was it not explained how he got his mask back?
>>284583487I'm surprised the threads didn't manage to spoil it for you.Gosho might lay the red herring on Jodie a bit thick, but it's actually really well done, because you can see that most things can be attributed to Araide.I do wish they showed Araide talk about the trial before this though, to reveal that little slip up.
>>284584156I thought this was supposed to be Akai's reveal. It actually happened, but I thought he was on the ship.
>>284584463>it's actually really well doneI think this may currently be my favorite one. There's so much going on, one big reveal after another, I'm reasonably sure Gosho dropped some hints for the future, and Vermouth is a very fascinating antagonist.
>>284584546Btw this also prove that anons calling Jodie dumbed down were wrong. She's always been a bit of sloppy and a klutz, as the previous case proves. She's well intended and competent, but nothing compared to many other characters.
>>284583186Jimbo!
>>284583736Ai really is his greatest weakness.Also, seems like a situation where they're just fucked. Moreso than before.
>>284583818God he's so cooool!
>>284583844He must've done this on purpose, right? No way he missed a gun.
>>284583445What a TWIST!
Did Vermouth molest Conan during his sleep???
>>284583721Look at this ancient grandma playing with her son.
>>284583834Just blow her feet up. Let's see her walking away with a limb.
>>284583899>Sorry Jimmy>Sunday's editorial don't think this is the end yet
>>284584899You wouldn't?
Wait, the Slasher was Vermouth???
Probably stupid question but if the FBI already knew it was Araide why didn't they just get her earlier???
>>284583925Thanks OP.I've been kinda looking towards this case to see how Gosho would tie together all the plot threads he's been hinting at, and I gotta say I'm kinda... disappointed. Him just no selling the big reveal and then dumping the exposition via Vermouth and Jodie just loudly talking (not even to, but rather) at each other was kinda weak. Plus, I'm now kinda starting to see what other anons kept talking about with regards to the handling of the BO (and other relevant plot characters) later on: everyone really is just fumbling around so that Gosho has plausible deniability not to do any actual plot development. I get why he's doing it, still kinda annoyed by it ngl (like what do you mean Ran didn't hear anything from the trunk, or that Calvados still had a gun to off himself, or that Vermouth just so happens to practically have fallen in love with Conan, so her protection now extends to Ai, or....).
>>284584463>I do wish they showed Araide talk about the trial before this though, to reveal that little slip up.I genuinely have no idea how Conan figured out Araide was Vermouth besides Araide also being coincidentally there whenever Jodie was around Haibara. It was just a coincidence Vermouth stole the files on the same day of the Bus Jacking? I guess the police was in disarray from trying to catch the felon they let escape, and Vermouth had to go to the police station on that day for questioning as Araide because she was involved in the Bus Jacking giving her the perfect opportunity to steal the files? And the reason why Vermouth stole the files on all the cases Richard Moore solved wasn't because she was investigating Conan, but because she needed to know the information regarding Araide's father's death in order to testify in court? I guess that was a really good red herring, because I thought for sure someone got suspicious of Conan's actions during the bus jacking and decided to investigate him. I should have realized whoever stole the files on the same day as the bus jacking was because they got called to the police station for questioning for that incident.
So who was Akai's target here? Was it Vermouth, but he didn't know she was Araide? Was he not in communication with Jodie that Vermouth is Dr. Araide?
>>284586092Maybe his target was Sherry since they knew Vermouth was trying to kill her. He was shown searching for Haibara multiple times since she looked just like Sherry.
>>284582549>go to a famous people cruise with a shady looking man in a slutty halloween costumesonoko you fucking whore, what would makoto think if he saw you like that?
>>284583680>>284583686>>284583736>>284583736Good fucking job Ai
These confrontations are fun but when you realize there is 0 stake it's a bit dumb.
>>284583802>"next one will be your head!"Then fucking do it holy shit. Why do cops and agents in fiction keeps doing this? Or atleast disable her legs as per standard procedure Won't be surprised if she got away and all of this would end up amounting to nothing
>>284583858>"I'm sorry we didn't draw out the Big Cheese either."Who's the "Big Cheese"? The Black Organization's boss?
>>284583686Imagine being the taxi driver witnessing this scene. Where did Haibara even hide the spare tracking glasses that even Conan couldn't find them?
I thought Akai Shuichi was a Black Organization member who infiltrated the FBI.
>>284584590>She's always been a bit of sloppy and a klutz, as the previous case proves.I think her only noteworthy sloppiness is letting Ran see the photos she had hidden in her bathroom mirror. Shouldn't have gotten so drunk 2 days before the big operation they planned to catch Vermouth.
And now that we are 700 chapters later, basically nothing has happened except the reveal of Rum and the fact that he knows that the drug can shrink people
>>284583222>the boss killed him with that drugVodka casually letting Gin Boss slip
>>284582594NOT OUR PRECIOUS JIMMY
>>284588780Not the first time he's said that.

>>284583818Enter: Operator
>>284589971i wonder if we'll ever see the big dick FBI operators in full raid gear, maybe facing the BO in the finale or somethingyou know, like the ones from the "FBI open up" memes
This case has more twists than shamalan movie
>>284583771It actually can't be confirmed how exactly cocktails started being called that, with several theories floating around.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocktail#Etymology
>>284586477I agree. It's like when Gin knew Conan was around at the train station and started opening the lockers. Technically it was very exciting, but then again you knew nothing ever happens.

>>284583834>still that slim and shapely even under all the vest and paddingzamn
>>284583591so Sharon either took the APTX or it was the actual Chris who was inside the casket
>>284583925all this only to go back to status quo for 20 years
>>284592663There never was Chris, it was just an identity that Sharon tried to use to keep living among people without them getting weirded out by her never actually aging. No one really finds it weird if a daughter looks just like her mother. In fact, "Sharon" from the very beginning seems to be another false identity, we don't know who or what Vermouth really is.
>>284583511wait, so when did that happen? How long has this charade been going on? Was it vermouth in the original bathtub-case as well?
>>284583711I like the dynamic they have going on. Gin is the autistic genius who gets easily distracted, and Vodka is the level-headed assistant who keeps the basic facts straight
>>284593117The bathtub case was real Araide. Vermouth needed his identity because he could get close to people she suspected. To cover her tracks she tried to kill real Araide, who is now under protection of FBI.
>>284577412
>>284583668I love it when Conan crossdresses <3
>>284583445>>284583668it's a good thing only plot-important characters can pull of these perfect disguises. It kind of breaks the setting if every potential culprit can just fake themselves an alibi at any time
>>284583818That's not a nice way to talk to an old lady...
>>284583899Get fucked, Shinichi
>>284593412True, but it kind of requires it too, at least if real cases are to be considered.You know that any established non-criminal can't be the culprit.If they are a criminal, of course they did it.You can see this with Kaito Kid cases, of course.I think it would be hilarious if say, Gin ended up being a suspect, but despite Conan's best efforts, he just didn't do it and he has to let him go.
You now remember first ever case had Gin and Vodka as very likely suspects, and Shinichi's deduction allowed them to go free and continue with their evil business.
>>284593827>You can see this with Kaito Kid cases, of course.See what?
>>284582549Is it normal for girls to go into parties with their best friend dad?
>>284594240Only if it's an exclusive, invitation-only party with potential murder mystery.
>>284585698>Vermouth just so happens to practically have fallen in love with ConanAt first I thought the same thing, but then I remember Shinichi did save her life in New York, when she was posing as a serial killer. I believe since then she calls him "Cool Guy", and Ran "Angel".
>>284582389She's afraid that Jodie will molest Conan before her.
>>284582549This is the sexiest Sonoko has ever been.
>>284582594That's Gin, isn't it?
>>284582978Wait a minute, could Medusa be Vermouth?
>>284593117Basically, that was the only real Araide we saw. I think it's more or less implied Conan and everyone else had some more contact with the real Araide, or else it wouldn't have made much sense for Vermouth to pick him as a disguise. But it was already her in the bus and in the Takagi/Sato case for instance.
>>284582724panel 3 looks oddly erotic
>>284593876Come to think of it, why did Gin and Vodka ride the roller coaster in the first place? Just for shits and giggles?
>>284595478
Step aside, Sonokofags, we prefer hags here.
>>284595478Just cause they work for the Black Organisation and murder people doesn’t mean they can’t have fun probably to get an overview of the park.
>>284586502she needs her alive
>>284595478It was to spot if their dealer was waiting in the place they agreed on.
>>284583899Why is there so much sexual tension on this page? He's so rude calling her an idiot. What's she going to do to him if she wakes up first?
>>284582339this case is pretty cool>>284582549holy sexo>>284583668twist after fucking twist thanks anon
>>284595005Gin is 190cm, and has a more imposing build. Easiest way to recognize him is by people shitting their pants in his close proximity.
>>284583222Don't let Vermouth distract you from the actual big reveal of this case: Vodka's eye.
>>284597107We'll sooner get the whole organization revealed than both his eyes seen in full glory.And why is his memory of Gin and Shinichi somehow more suggestive than I remember it?

>>284598051Ran and Ayumi share the same brain cell of climbing into people's trunks unannounced
>>284599364At least Ran knows karate, Ayumi the designated hostage only has her loud scream.
>>284583532Why did she have to sleep with Gin? She would have been perfect for Shinichi.
>>284583081Oh, this mummy was texting right after invisible man did the hand thing, which means that it was good enough to be on the movies
>>284599764Sleeping with Gin is a challenge for best of the best, it's the ultimate bragging right. Even Vermouth got rejected.
For me, Conan's art style in this period looks the best. Everything looks beautiful and clean, and the girls look exceptionally attractive. I have loved Vermouth since I was a child.
>>284584375The werewolf? He stole it back while everyone scrambling out to listen to the announcement >>284583303
>>284583873>>284583894This feels like it's missing a page or twoI swear there's some interim pages where vermouth is surprised that Conan is still awake and explained it and Vermouth asking Conan what he means by the address stuff, which leads to him explaining the phone companies thing
Can we all agree that Amy is the best girl
>>284601281Forgot pic
>>284601281>>284601310ayumi is a yummy
>>284598051Why in the world would you go inside her trunk when you don't even know if they would go inside the car or where they would drive to? If the trunk was open, then they probably were going to put something inside it and catch you. She's reckless and crazy, especially when she thinks Jodie is a suspicious person. How many hours was she inside there waiting?
>>284597970>And why is his memory of Gin and Shinichi somehow more suggestive than I remember it?Shinichi's eyes and revealed forehead look feminine and beautiful. He also looks good beaten, his face is so soft. It's like Gin's handling a wounded gazelle.
>>284591224>>284583771Well, whiskey "on the rocks" exists because once they used river stones to cool the drink instead of ice, so the name in that case is literal.
>>284595005I have the feeling his disguise would be him mowing down with a machinegun everyone who looks at his face.
>>284593117Which btw means Shinichi's cuckening was by Vermouth's hands. ...damn, and it actually makes a lot of sense.
>>284598155>Conan just regularly asks his mom to make her look like a cute girl
>>284598361>Will dumb gaijin understand the Japanese codes and culture?>Not my problem, in fact, I'll make even more of them!
>>284604181If you could, wouldn't you?
>>284598254Wouldn't the mark on her hand be backwards, though?
>>284604014>Which btw means Shinichi's cuckening was by Vermouth's hands.What did she do to him? Wasn't Sonoko always the one who rehearsed as the knight in the play with Ran?
