Case

Situation

Haibara

Ai Haibara has a dream that Gin finds her. Later, after school, Conan Edogawa and Haibara find Gin's car by chance. Conan plants a tracker in his car before he and Vodka take off. He then learns that Gin and Vodka are planning to eliminate someone, and already has a member named Pisco in the area. Gin then finds the tracker and destroys it, believing Sherry placed it there. Using the info they already gathered, Conan and Haibara rush to stop Pisco's mission from succeeding. Though, when they arrive, the lights go out, and a chandelier falls down, crashing on the target.

Murder

Location: Haido City Hotel Victim: Shigehiko Nomiguchi Age: 56 Years old Cause of death: Blunt trauma by falling chandelier Suspects: Pisco When the lights are off for showing the clips, Conan and Haibara realized the politician had disappeared. They run around the room to find the politician. However, Conan hears a weird sound and a loud crash. After the lights are on, Mr. Nomiguchi is revealed to be crushed by the chandelier. Conan knows that Pisco is the true mastermind behind the murder, but can he find out who is it?

Conan

The police question everyone, and unable to maintain everyone as a suspect, the guests rush out the door. In the turmoil, Haibara is kidnapped by someone and confined to a liquor storage room.

Kidnapping
	Location: Haido City Hotel Ballroom Victim: Ai Haibara Culprit: Pisco Megure and Takagi decided to release the guests after unable to gain everyone as a suspect. When the guests barged out, Conan and Haibara did too. When the run, Haibara gets seperated from Conan. Someone caught her from the back and drugged her using some kind of drug, causing her to fall asleep.

Elsewhere, Gin and Vodka are on their way to the hotel. Haibara drinks baijiu, directed by Conan, in hopes that she'll be able to turn back into Shiho and climb out the chimney. Will she be able to escape in time before Gin and Vodka find her?

The Resolution

Gin and Vodka meet Shiho on the rooftop, already aware that she used the chimney to escape the wine cellar. There, the two shoot her down.

Attempted Murder
	Location: Haido City Hotel - Wine Cellar Rooftop Victim: Shiho Miyano Injury: Gunshot Wound to the Back Culprit: Gin After Shiho climbed the chimney, someone shot her from the back. Shiho realizes it was Gin who is aware that she uses the chimney to climb out the cellar. Gin then shoots her multiple times, nearly killing her.

Conan arrives and shoots Gin with his needle, then distracts them with his bow-tie, turning their attention to his location. Shiho retreats, jumping back down the chimney before they're able to kill her. Conan escapes too. Gin shoots himself in the arm to remain alert, overcoming Conan's sleeping darts.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

Kenzo Masuyama is revealed to be Pisco. He is the culprit. He reveals himself to Haibara, and when he is just about to shoot Haibara, Conan reveals himself to Pisco. Ethanol fumes are set alight by Pisco's cigarette and the whole cellar catches fire. Conan and Haibara escape in the confusion, leaving Pisco to face Gin and Vodka who arrive. Gin then kills Pisco.

Murder

Location: Haido City Hotel - Wine Storage, Room 904 Victim: Pisco Age: 71 Years old Cause of death: Gunshot wound Culprit: Gin Pisco hears someone getting down the chimney. He thought that it was Conan and Haibara, but it was actually Gin who had survived from Conan's tranquilizer darts. He then tells Pisco that he was photographed when commiting the crime, and then shoots him, resulting in his death.

He and Vodka unite with a new female member named Vermouth, who appears to have evil intentions of her own.

Manga to anime changes

• In the scene just before Conan gives Haibara his glasses, Shiho recalls her nightmare about Gin killing Conan, the Detective Boys, and the rest of her friends. In the manga, Gin's body and face are spattered with blood. The anime version removes the bloody spatter, presumably because of the implied violence.
• In the anime, Chris Vineyard's name is mistakenly written as "Chris Vinyard" in the guestbook.
• The anime version omits a brief questioning scene where the seven suspects that had purple handkerchiefs are being called for individually by Megure for interrogation. Vermouth looks out the window, presumably for Gin and Vodka who are about to arrive.
• Conan's notebook diagram of the locations of the seven suspects at the time of the murder is different in the anime.
• The anime omits Vodka shooting the lock out of the storage room with a silenced handgun.
• In the newspaper picture that shows Pisco aiming at the chandelier, the figure is very difficult to see in the anime, which makes this clue nearly useless. The manga version shows the person's raised arm clearly.
• In the manga, Vodka accurately shoots at the door where Conan is hiding at adult height. In the anime, the animators mistook the muzzle flashes of the gun for wall impacts and thus depicted Vodka shooting wildly.

Remastered version

On March 23, 2009, a remastered version of the case was aired. All three episodes were edited and combined into one hour long special, and scenes were edited out to fit the time slot. However, exclusive to the remastering new scenes were added to this version. In the beginning, Haibara types APTX 4869 into a program on a computer. She tells the story of the drug and she stills recall the day she and Conan encounter them. In the ending, Haibara deletes the typing and closes the program. She says that seems like enough information for whoever who is watching and mentions the watcher is now one of the people who knows their secret and is in danger now if the secret goes out, so the person should pray that nothing bad happens. She gets up from her chair then leaves, and Conan appears on the computer screen, saying that no matter what, he'll protect the watcher.

Trivia

• Haibara lied to Conan that the disk of copied APTX 4869 information was left behind and destroyed in the fire. In The Desperate Revival, the bloody floppy disk is hidden under a pile of disks by her computer when Ran comes to visit her.
