Situation
In the interrogation room, Takahiro Matoi tells the police that he could not recall a thing after he had drinks with the victim, Shiori Jojima, and two other colleagues.
Meanwhile, Conan and Haibara just arrive, as they are asked by the Detective Boys to help find a cat for an old lady. While they are looking for it, they see Takagi and Chiba doing some kind of investigation. It turns out that the two are looking for a person that wore construction site uniform at the time where Matoi was drunk to confirm the alibi for him. The boys are also curious about what happened to Matoi, so they ask Takagi and Chiba, to which they tell that Matoi was drunk somewhere around the location the police and the boys are standing, and the man saw someone on the other side of a wall that is opposite to where he was sitting. However, the person is revealed to be Genta and Mitsuhiko standing on top of the sooner, as they were looking for the cat up in the wall for some reason.
But a case couldn’t end when the culprit of the murder is not yet revealed, so the kids split up into two groups to investigate: Conan goes with Ayumi and Matoi to the building where the murder occurred while Haibara goes with Genta and Mitsuhiko. After a preliminary site inspection at the room, Conan and Matoi come outside and see Ayumi talking to Madoka Jojima, Shiori’s sister who hates Matoi due to his unkempt lifestyle, and is suspecting him for murdering her sister.
After that, the group goes to see the company Shiori worked for, where Megure and another policeman are interrogating the two colleagues who drank with Matoi and Jojima the previous night, Shohei Yumura and Shigeki Natsuhara. There, Conan and Ayumi happen to know that someone in that company embezzled the money, and the two police assume that Shiori learned about who caused this and was silenced for that, the suspicion is further improved as Haibara’s group also learns about that embezzlement.
Meanwhile, Haibara’s group couldn’t find anyone else in the convenience store where Matoi was in noticing his existence and the three raise doubt on him instead. But the doubt seems to suggest Conan something else about the truth of the murder as he suddenly causes the attention of Megure and the others.
