Case 1:

Situation

When Conan's glasses are taken off while he's asleep, Ran sees his face clearly and begins to suspect that he might be Shinichi. Her suspicions become stronger when she finds an old picture of them as children with a famous magician named Motoyasu Tsukumo. However, she cannot confront Conan right away, Tsukumo's wife suddenly arrives to Kogoro's office and tells him, Ran and Conan that her husband has been murdered! She also has some suspects in mind: specifically, his three disciples and prospect successors.

As Ran carefully watches Conan decipher clues, she becomes more convinced he is Shinichi. Is there some way to reverse this discovery?

Murder

Location: Tsukumo household
Victim: Motoyasu Tsukumo
Cause of death: Potassium Cyanide poisoning
Suspects: Yuji Momochi, Mako Miyoshi, and Kazumi Sanada

Conan helps Kogoro solve his case without even having to knock him out, but after wards Ran escorts him to Shinichi's house for a confession of him being Shinichi. But Ran shows strong intuition about his personality, and it makes Conan look wary for a no way out situation.

When Shinichi's mom appears on the scene, Conan is worried thinking that Yukiko might slip about his identity. However, she told Ran a complex but convincing story about why Conan's behavior is similar to Shinichi's, helping him escape suspicion. Ran thought for some time but finally apologized to Conan for treating him that way. They were about to go back but Yukiko requested Ran to let her keep Conan for a few days since she'll be living for a while in Japan all alone. Yukiko thereafter starts to treat Shinichi as a real baby and even carried him into their house, but why has she left America for Japan?

    Situation

    Yukiko and Conan arrived in Gunma to meet her childhood friend, Hiromi Yabuuchi. After that, Hiromi introduces her uncle to Yukiko. Also, Hiromi's uncle has a friend named Carlos from Brazil. However, she has noticed some odd behaviors from her uncle, and since Yukiko also knows the old man from her and Hiromi's childhood times, Hiromi summoned her old friend to see if she can help.

    With Yukiko calling Conan her second son to her friends outside the city, Conan must play along and act like he is a genius thanks to detective books. When a murder takes place and he can't figure out the answer, Conan must figure out if his mom will be safe or if she could be the next target.
