FAMOUS DETECTIVE HOLMES
Solve the Mystery of the Green Balloon
Push. Push.
Excellent.
Hurry up!
What?!
There they are! Get them!
Get 'em!
Fools, how dare they!
Oops!
Curse you! Wait! Wait!
Now!
Here we go!
You...!!
Pull! Pull!
Get on board, quickly!
Nyah-nyah nyaah-nyaah!
What's going on? You idiots! Chase them, get them!
Well... Good-bye!
Au revoir!
Ciao!
Hurry! Chase them! Make sure to capture them!
Worthless.
Next, go!
Bonehead.
W.... Wait, I've got you!
Don't touch me.
Wait, you darn smugglers.
Do you hear me? I'll get you!
I'm going to catch you someday!
Inspector Lestrade makes a bombshell announcement.
Arrest of the culprits will be forthcoming...
D... Don't mention it, Mrs. Hudson...
What is going on?
Mr. Watson.
I feel guilty that someone of your importance would offer to help.
Don't mention it. I have lots of time on my hands.
There you go again, Watson!
Under the blue sky, surrounded by beautiful flowers...
Mrs. Hudson, you look lovely.... quite lovely.
Don't get carried away and ruin her flower garden.
Anything wrong?
Oh, nothing. Shall we...?
Look! A balloon.
Some kids must find it amusing to drop green balloons into your green garden.
Shall we continue?
Budworm!
Help.
Capture the evil gang.
Dolphin Island.
Dolphin Island...
Oh my, what a cute letter.
Mrs. Hudson, have you ever heard of "Dolphin Island"?
Dolphin Island? No, I haven't.
Maybe, it's a very small island, not even visible on a map.
"Dolphin Island" sounds like a name any kid could come up with.
It could be the work of some mischievous child.
I hope that proves to be so...
if not, we may have a big problem on our hands.
Thanks for your patience. It's finally dry.
Oh, thank you, thank you. I am so privileged.
I wonder where Mr. Holmes has gone off to?
Oh my!
- Give me one! - Can I have one?!
I need them for my work. I'll give some to you next time.
Sorry.
Is he still working?
It has been almost 5 hours...
He's been ignoring all my questions.
Let's start dinner, shall we?
Holmes, dinner is ready.
Is there something wrong with your head?
Hey, Holmes!
Sorry, but go ahead without me.
That won't do.
There is nothing I can do.
5 hours 12 minutes!
Watson! Take a memo! Now!
12 minutes 30 seconds.
31 seconds.32 seconds. 33 seconds.34 seconds.
I got it. Thank you.
It took an average of 5 hours, 15 minutes for the balloons to fall.
In other words, the balloon that fell in Mrs. Hudson's garden...
flew that much time from somewhere.
Considering today's pressure distribution...
referencing wind direction and velocity against meteorological observation...
I deduced that the balloon came from around here.
A seaplane?! Right now?
Mr. Hudson must've had many contacts with airplane companies.
It would be the quickest way.
Yes, I understand. I'll make some calls.
Airplane?
Listen, wrongdoers are nocturnal.
Apprehend all suspicious cargo and check it!
I am determined to capture these smugglers!
Stop!
Stop that vehicle.
Thank you for your hard work. Excuse us, we are in a hurry.
Holmes?
Wait! Hey!
A new case?
Turn the coach around!
Be careful. I'll pray for your success.
Well then, we're off.
The engine is in excellent condition.
It.... It's high!
Are you okay, Watson?
If my calculation is correct, our destination should be nearby.
That must be Waymer Island, just like the map indicates.
W... Waymer Island s... should have a lighthouse.
Let's find out.
Let's check with the person running the lighthouse.
Do you work in the lighthouse?
Yes, my wife and I live here alone, there's no one else.
Did anyone visit the island, or have you seen anything unusual?
Nothing. It's been quiet and no one's visited recently.
A balloon!
What brings you gentlemen here?
Well... actually...
We must be mistaken. We'll look somewhere else.
What's wrong, Holmes?
Look over there.
A balloon!
Watson, hold on tightly!
That man's awkward manner bothered me...
but then I saw the balloon behind the lighthouse.
That's why I turned back.
So there must be something going on there.
"My wife and I are alone"... That man was lying.
Holmes, look up over there.
Is that your balloon?
Don't move!
If you had just gone back, you might have saved yourselves.
Hey Mister! Run!
Shall we?
Quickly Watson!
This won't do, will it?
That's as far as you go.
Thanks for the...
Hurry up and walk!
It seems that balloon letter was no trick.
Are they pirates? Or maybe...
In any case, we have to get untied.
But what are they up to?
Listen carefully! In regards to our plan...
our target, the cargo ship, will proceed this way.
Then our decoy boat will move this way.
When the lighthouse goes out...
the cargo boat runs into the reef! Ka-boom!
And the cargo belongs to us.
By the way Professor, I'm not sure we should keep those two alive.
Once the job is done we'll get rid of them and the lighthouse family.
More importantly...
the decoy boat is ready, right?
It passed the tests perfectly.
All right then, let's celebrate in advance!
Go for it!.
Ya-ho!
Oh my...
We must not be caught until we rescue the boy.
We'll have to go through the window...
Great, we'll use that tree.
Where are you going?
The brat must have fallen off his bed.
Go and check on him.
Yes, sir.
Where is my dinner?! Someone go check on it!
Yes, sir.
You're the famous "Sherlock Holmes"?
That hurt a bit.
We located you by deducing where your green balloon came from.
Yeah, I knew you would come!
What's taking so long?! The Professor is waiting!
Don't act stupid!
Remember, your brat and husband are captives!
Smugglers?
Yeah, they do whatever, smuggling or pirating.
Smugglers...
Jack, we'll do all we can to rescue your parents.
You said you like chemistry, right?
Yeah, I filled the balloons with hydrogen I generated in an experiment.
What kind of tools do you have?
Over here.
I asked my dad to buy them for me.
Impressive. I like chemistry, too.
But he always makes a big mess conducting his weird experiments.
No chloroform or ether... hmm?
We can generate a sort of knockout gas by mixing these.
Will you help me?
Professor!
Here she comes, like a moth to a flame.
Everyone, no slipups!
Hey, lighthouse keeper.
Obey our orders, or you'll never see your wife or kid again, got it?
We did it!
Jack, fill the balloons with gas.
Jack, now!
What do you think you're doing, brat?
Yeah! Complete success!
Holmes, look.
Hurry up!
Moriarty!
I see. He's the mastermind of this smuggling gang.
They're leaving.
What's with that tugboat?
Please, hurry and save my husband!
My dad is locked up in the lighthouse!
They are planning to loot cargo from that ship!
Hurry or my husband will be an accomplice!
Watson, take care of them.
I'm coming with you!
Hurry up and turn off that light!
What are they doing?! If they don't hurry and turn it off...!
Did you forget your wife and brat are at stake?!
What are you doing to my dad?!
Jack!
Don't move!
Hurry and turn off the light.
If not, we throw your brat into the ocean.
You, coward!
J... Jack...
Dad, don't listen to him!
Hurry up or I'll...!
Oh, the light went out.
The light went out!
What? What the...?!
Captain! We've lost sight of the lighthouse!
That's ridiculous! Look sharp!
Turn on the decoy!
Yes, sir!
Come on! Hurry up!
Oh! It's all the way over there! This is bad! At this rate we'll crash!
There are lots of reefs around here! Hard right rudder!
As expected, they're changing their course.
Look out! You're headed for the reefs!
Keep quiet!
What are you doing to my dad, you...!
The brat!
Captain! Another lighthouse has appeared!!
What is going on?! Hard left rudder!
What happened?!
Yeah, they made it!
You won't get away.
Release the decoy lighthouse!
You there, get onboard!
You won't get away this time!
Drat! Run for it!
They came back for us!
Get out of the way!
You can't run anymore!
We're gonna crash!
Retreat, Todd, Smiley!
I knew someone would find my balloon and come to rescue us.
Really, it's all thanks to you.
I didn't know that Waymer Island was also Dolphin Island.
I called it that in case those bad guys picked up the balloon.
Pretty cool, huh?
Indeed. Very cool.
Well then, Jack, so long.
Goodbye.
Goodbye!
Mr. Holmes, please visit us again sometime!
Not yet. You still can't catch me Lestrade.
Moriarty, I'm going to catch you.
Inspector Lestrade, I'll send you a rescue ship right away!
Forward! Keep going Todd, Smiley!
What are you doing?! Hurry! Stroke! Stroke! Stroke!
A golden statue of an angel was stolen by Professor Moriarty.
Holmes begins his investigation as seven tiny faces appear before him.
Holmes and the boys start an adventure...
to recover the statue from an abandoned boat.
