The J.League Starting Whistle (Jリーグ 開幕の警笛(ホイッスル) J Rīgu Kaimaku no Keiteki?) is the 1207th episode of the Detective Conan anime. It's one of the commemorative episodes for the 30th anniversary of the Detective Conan anime, as well as the fourth J.League collaboration episode.

Conan and the Detective Boys are watching the opening match of the J.League, which is filled with excitement. Former Japan national team players Hiroaki Morishima and Yūka Kageyama are also in the commentary booth, and the match is a heated affair with VAR decisions being made. However, Conan senses something ominous when he sees Kogoro and Megure guarding the Mayor Nanako Eguchi of Toraharu. It turns out that a bomb has been planted somewhere in the stadium, which is packed with spectators, and will explode at the end of the match. With time running out, Conan pursues the culprit and the bomb.[1]

Case

Situation

The opening match of this year’s J-League is the match between Big Osaka and Tokyo Spirits. Professor Agasa takes Conan, Haibara, and the Detective Boys to the stadium holding the opening match to cheer their favorite team up. Meanwhile, at a parking lot near the skyscraper is Renji Matsuo standing beside a car to wait for the mayor of Toraharu city, Nanako Eguchi, as he is her secretary. Matsuo then receives a call from someone, so he decides to answer it. At the other end of the call is the referee’s whistle sound, activating the bomb planted under the car he is standing. He barely survives from the explosion and is taken to the hospital.
