Plot

Part 1

A person who murders people with a hammer, dubbed "Hammer Man", has been seen escaping to an apartment after assaulting a woman.

Attempted Murder

EP530-531a Case 1.jpg

Victim: Woman
Suspects: Hammer Man

Sato and Takagi stalk out the apartment and are later accompanied by Conan, Ran and Sonoko. A home delivery courier, a bike delivery woman, and a pizza deliverer were seen to leave that apartment and were then interrogated. The three reveal they did not meet their client and instead followed notes specified for them; The courier was instructed to leave the package outside the door, the woman was told to pick up the package, and the pizza man was told to leave the pizza on the table and take the money from an envelope. They then realize that while interrogating the three, no one was watching the apartment. They enter the apartment to find a masked man unconscious. Conan removes the mask and notices that the man was knocked unconscious by a hammer and deduces hammer man has impersonated one of three deliverers from before.

Part 2

Conan investigates the apartment and finds the bathroom to be too clean and that there is no underwear in the dryer. He deduces that the Hammer man is trying to hide his gender. After examining the shoes, Conan finds out only one pair of shoes with a leather shift-pad. Conan tranquilizes Sonoko and uses her to reveal the bike delivery woman to be the Hammer man. As evidence, Conan reveals that the leather shift-pad shoes were designed for biking and since there was only one pair, it means that the biker is not living in the apartment. Conan reveals that since the culprit left the shoes behind, she does not intend to escape the city by bike meaning she intends to change out of the bike delivery jumpsuit in a public toilet. The police manages to arrest her and she was revealed to be targeting girls with long hair because her boyfriend broke up with her for a girl with long-hair. Later, Kiyonaga Matsumoto is awaken by a nightmare from a past case.
