Detective Conan - Episode 1119

In "Detective Conan - Episode 1119" titled "The Class Reunion of Four," Tamai Satoru, a 40-year-old host club manager, is found dead in the swimming pool of his high-end host club named Sunset. The investigation team, led by Inspector Megure and Detective Takagi, works with Conan to solve the case. Over the course of the episode, it is revealed that Tamai was engaged to Maeda Emi, a 40-year-old shopping show host, and attended a four-person class reunion alongside Sasaki Kazuma, a 40-year-old lawyer, and Okawa Yosuke, a 40-year-old doctor.

Initial investigations show that Tamai had already died on the afternoon of the previous day. He had a strange bruise on his head in the shape of the Hiragana character "no" and bite marks on his wrists. Maeda Emi, who claims an alibi of participating in a livestream at the time of Tamai's presumed death, reveals a deep-rooted history among the reunion participants dating back to their high school days at Haido Private Academy.

The plot thickens when Conan discovers signs of a struggle and clues leading to the Haido River, suggesting that Tamai was pushed into the river before ending up in the pool. Further inquiries reveal that Okawa and Sasaki, who were manipulated by Tamai during their school years, had long held a grudge against him stemming from an incident involving stolen student council funds. However, it is clear that their relationship was complex, marked by a mix of camaraderie and manipulation.

Kogoro concludes that Maeda Emi is the culprit. He debunks her alibi and links the peculiar bruise on Tamai's head to a design feature on a product from her shopping show. It turns out that the motive stemmed from deep-seated anger over Tamai's disregard for their past and his exploitative intentions regarding Emi's career.

The episode ends with Maeda Emi's arrest and sheds light on a story of friendship, betrayal, and the long shadows cast by past actions.
