Resolution
The culprit is
the cat. Isojima usually collect the trash and dispose it in the supposed garbage bin, but because she is in the hospital, the cat do it instead.
The store association members then decide to reinstall garbage bin, but the budget is not enough to cover. Ran, Sonoko, and Sera then come and suggest the members to use their "garbage takeout bag". It is actually an ordinary tote bag with Japanese-style pattern, but one can put garbage bag inside it to take the garbage with them. They also suggest selling the bag as souvenirs for foreigners. The store association members then agree with Ran's idea.
As a reward for finding the culprit, Sonoko invites the Detective Boys to the WSG Tokyo party. The episode ends with Conan saying: "However, we had no idea that would be start of that horrifying case...", which is hint towards the plot of movie 24. The final scene shows the "Vacuum Superconducting Linear" train reaching 1000km/h.
