=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
Conan has to deal with some stiff competition when Heiji Hattori, heralded as the "Great Detective of the West", comes looking for Shinichi Kudo to prove which of them is the best detective. He shows up all of a sudden in the Mouri Agency (since he suspects Shinichi has a hand on Kogoro's recent success and Sonoko told him where it was located), bringing a nice Osakan liquor as a gift to Kogoro (so he'll let him stay overnight), and delivers the challenge, which will take place regarding the request coming from a rich woman: to make a background check on her future daughter-in-law, a young woman who's simply too good to be true so she could actually be a wolf in sheep's clothing or a gold digger in disguise.

However, before Conan can save his reputation, he must first save himself, as a mysterious sickness threatens to close his file for good, and then check on his surroundings, as the husband of their client appears dead right after the group arrives to his big and fancy house.

==== Part 2 ====
Heiji Hattori believes that the murder of the diplomat Isao Tsujimura is a locked room one, and he's also sure of who the killer is. But almost at the same time, Conan collapses due to his illness, and then Shinichi Kudo returns to the surprise of everyone, especially himself. As Shinichi tries to expose the real secret behind the perfectly sealed room, the rivalry between he and Heiji Hattori heats up. Deceit and treachery are revealed, as Isao Tsujimura's killer is finally unmasked and their reasons to commit the crime are explained.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The killer is '''Kimie Tsujimura'''. She murdered her husband by first drugging him with sleeping pills before going to the Mouri agency, then pretending to try waking him up, but actually poisoning him with a poison-imbibed needle that she hid inside a locket attached to her keychain. Which was exactly the same type of locket/keychain that Tsujimura himself had. She also tried to stage a fake locked room murder with Tsujimua's locket keychain and fishing lines specifically placed all around the home to make him look guilty no matter which room he visited after the murder and to make everyone believe that Tsujimura had died and had been locked inside the study with the sealed room trick; in reality, he was alive but asleep due to the drugs, so Kimie secretly prickled him to his death in front of everyone.

Kimie's reasons to murder her husband were the following: twenty years before she was was happily married to a man named Kenji Yamashiro and they had a little daughter, Yukiko. Tsujimura, who was in love with Kimie and jealous of Yamashiro, staged a cruel trap to accuse him of being involved in a fraud. Yamashiro was sent to jail and died there soon after, then Tsujimura courted the extremely distraught Kimie, and as soon as she was widowed he divorced his wife/Takayoshi's mother and convinced Kimie to marry him. Kimie was unaware of this and accepted, since she was completely devastated and had to give up her child's custody to Yamashiro's family.

{{EndBox}}

Twenty years after the "fraud", the adult Takayoshi brought a picture of a girl he had fallen for and intended to marry: she happened to be Yukiko, Kimie and Yamashiro's daughter, who had grown to look almost exactly like a younger Kimie save for her hair/color scheme. (As seen in an old picture of the just-married Kimie and Tsujimura, which the latter kept in his studio). Tsujimura realised who the girl was, was completely horrified and started screaming at his son for wanting to marry "that man's child". Kimie also recognized Yukiko in the picture and started to get suspicious, then Tsujimura revealed the truth to her. So she decided to kill her "husband" to get at him, using her visit to Kogoro to ask about Yukiko's background as an excuse that would provide her for an alibi.

(As a corollary, Toshimitsu Tsujimura had helped his son Isao in his plan to "steal" Kimie from Yamashiro and send him to jail. He had repented long ago, though, and he wanted to take the blame for his son's murder as a way to atone for his terrible sin. Therefore, when Heiji said that he was the culprit, he willingly confessed for a crime that he hadn't committed, trying to wash away the sin of ruining the Yamashiro family's lives.)

Kimie confesses that she is the killer, reveals the above mentioned motive and surrenders to the police without any resistence. Before being taken away, she begs Takayoshi to take good care of her daughter Yukiko, and Takayoshi promises to do so as Yukiko cries after learning the truth.

Heiji aknowledges his loss and tells this to Shinichi, aknowledging him officially as the winner of this case. Shinichi, however, calls him a fool and says that it's useless to compete, since there is and always be only one truth. After saying this, he almost collapses atop of the stairs; since he had recovered his original physical age solely as an effect of the homemade liquor (doubling as a folk cure for colds) that Heiji made him drink earlier ''and'' the cold he had, it was only temporary and it was wearing off.

Ran, who knew nothing about this, catches him trying to sneak away and tries to make him stay so he will go to a doctor. He tells her to wait and gets away by practically throwing himself down the stairs as his body begins to actually reverse to a child's one, nevermind his mental pleas to resist a little so he can stay with Ran a little longer. Then, Shinichi almost screams Ran's name before fully shrinking back.

When Ran finally catches up, she finds Conan alone in an oversized shirt. He tells her that Shinichi has just left and then passes out of pain and light-headness, which keeps Ran from making him answer any more questions.

Heiji returns to Osaka and, once Conan gets mildly better, he wonders why did his body return to normal even if for some minutes. He realises it was an after-effect of the liquor, but Ran catches him trying to snatch the bottle from the drunk Kogoro and takes it away. Conan is upset but then the Detective Kids drop by to visit, which cheers him up a little.</spoiler>

== Translation changes ==
=== Anime ===
* In the English Dub, after the accusation of spying on Ran, Shinichi states that he's a detective and that's what he does, whereas in the Japanese version he states that he can tell how Ran is doing by hearing her voice.
* In the English Dub, Heiji drops subtle hints that the two men who poisoned him were [[Gin]] and [[Vodka]], whereas in the Japanese version he merely acknowledges Shinichi as a worthy rival. The dub change presumably was made to fix a story problem for the upcoming ''[[Game Company Murder Case]]'' (see that page's continuity error).
* In the English Dub, Heiji also, in the same lines about Gin and Vodka, alludes to the fact that he already knows that Shinichi is Conan, despite the fact that he doesn't deduce this until his next appearance in ''[[Holmes Freak Murder Case]]''.
* The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:
:* Heiji Hattori - Harley Hartwell
:* Heizo Hattori - Martin Hartwell
:* Kimie Tsujimura - Camiel Tarrington
:* Fumio Koike - Franklin Keene
:* Toshimitsu Tsujimura - Theodore Tarrington
:* Isao Tsujimura - Rudy Tarrington
:* Takayoshi Tsujimura - Thomas Tarrington
:* Yukiko Katsuragi - Jasmine Kassleschultz
:* Kenji Yamashiro - Mori Yasmeen
* This was the final episode aired by Adult Swim.

== Trivia ==
* In the Netflix English Dub, Pam Dougherty who voiced Camiel Tarrington/Kimie Tsujimura in the Funimation English Dub reprised her role and was the only minor character to do so in this episode.

{{nihongo|'''Juzo Megure'''|目暮十三|Megure Jūzō}} (also known as '''Joseph Meguire''' in the Funimation dub), commonly referred to as '''Inspector Megure''', is a Police Inspector (Rank 6) in Division 1 of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department<ref name=PoliceRanks>http://forums.dctp.ws/index.php?topic=6114.0</ref> in the manga and anime ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
Shortly after Megure had come to the police force, he was involved in a case in which he would meet his future wife, [[Midori Megure|Midori]]. As a result of the case, he has taken to wearing a hat in public in order to hide a scar which he gained and his own self-consciousness about how he came to his marriage.<ref>Manga Chapter 286: An Unexpected Motive</ref> Megure was also a good friend of star detective story novelist [[Yusaku Kudo]], and would in the past consult him about one case or another. On many such occasions, Yusaku would take his son [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] with him, who would pick up his father's investigative skills and eventually become a detective in his own right.<ref>Manga Chapter 204: The Initial Call</ref>

Megure is almost always there on the scene when a murder occurs, always interviewing the suspects, and acting as the commanding officer of the group of police he brings along with him, among them [[Wataru Takagi]], [[Miwako Sato]], [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], and [[Kazunobu Chiba]]. Megure and [[Kogoro Mouri]] were former co-officers in the district.<ref>Manga Chapters 570-573: Shinichi's Childhood Adventure</ref>

== Personality ==
Megure is a capable veteran officer who cares much for his underlings, but he is prone to occasional shouting fits whenever something does not go right or when his temper gets the better of him. He also has little patience for fools, but tends to be a bit too conservative, limiting his ability for flexible thinking.

After [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] solved their first mutual case for him, he has regularly consulted him in difficult cases and considered him a great help.<ref>Manga Chapter 207: Hidden Within The Depth Of The Heart</ref> In stark contrast to this, he tends not to think much of [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and the [[Detective Boys]], usually thinking of them as a nuisance until they solve the ongoing case for him. Likewise, from their common police days, he has no high regard for [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], and he thinks that he may actually be under some kind of jinx, since wherever Kogoro<ref>Episode 316</ref> shows up, there is always some murder case nearby (a fact which actually conforms to Conan, which in later cases<ref>Chapter 655</ref><ref>Chapter 919</ref> he seems to have realised).

In some anime originals, Megure has the habit of trying to tell the culprit about the morals of doing wrong, which he rarely does in the manga series. Megure also likes to look good in front of TV and interviewing which he makes himself look neat. He is not really able at talking English, for example instead of policeman he said poriceman wrongly, and has a hard time using computers and any modern technological device.

Megure has a strong sense of justice and a strong tolerance for pain like when been hit with a iron club on head and been stabbed in stomach with knife.

When suspects yell, Megure mostly keeps a doesn't care attitude and doesn't show reaction.

== Plot overview ==
Megure appears in a majority of the episodes. He is always involved in questioning suspects, although his deductive powers are not as well-developed as [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] or [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]].

== Non-canon plot overview ==

== Relationships analysis ==
=== Family and friends ===
==== Midori Megure ====
[[Midori Megure|Midori]] is Megure's wife. During a case a long time ago, she insisted on being a decoy for a serial killer. This is explained in episode 217-218. Juzo jumped in front of the car to save her. While she was hit, he only hit his head. This is explained why he never takes off his hat, which is to hide the scar. She survived and later they were married. She would always make a bento lunchbox for him.

==== Yusaku Kudo ====
Megure is on very friendly terms with [[Yusaku Kudo|Yusaku]] and respects his deductive powers, so much so that he sometimes looks to him for guidance on tough cases.

==== Shinichi Kudo ====
[[Shinichi Kudo]] is respected and seen as a helpful guide on cases by Megure. Their working relationship began with [[The Locked Room in the Sky: Shinichi Kudo's First Case|Shinichi's first solo case aboard an airplane]]. Shinichi's habit of helping the police likely comes from his father, [[Yusaku Kudo]], whom Megure also respects. Megure often comments how cases would be much easier if "Kudo-kun" was still around. Conan often pretends that Shinichi tells him the truth to cases by phone so that Megure is more accepting of Conan's deductions.

==== Conan Edogawa ====
[[File:EP448 3.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Juzo and Edogawa.]]
Megure tends to treat Conan as a nuisance, and does not think much of him. Unlike Takagi and Sato, he does not notice as much as others the tips and hints Conan drops regularly.

==== Sonoko Suzuki ====
In episode 218, Juzo shielded Sonoko from a serial killer. The serial killer was going to kill Sonoko with a iron club until Juzo shielded her at last second. The killer was arrested and Juzo went to the hospital. Sonoko, Ran, Conan, Kogoro and the Superintendent went to visit him.

==== Kogoro Mouri ====
[[File:EP588 3.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Megure and Kogoro.]]
[[Kogoro Mouri]] and Megure used to work together in the past before Kogoro left the police force. Megure found Kogoro's work behavior and poor deductions irritating. Now that Kogoro has become the "Sleeping Kogoro", Megure's respect for him has increased somewhat. It is a running gag that Megure refers to Kogoro as a shinigami or a 'death-god', because of the sheer number of murder cases that Kogoro coincidentally has come by. Now whenever Kogoro and Megure work together, the inspector always impatiently awaits [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch|Kogoro's characteristic "Hynaaa~" sound and dance]] that marks the beginning of the [[Conan Edogawa|sleeping detective]]'s deduction.

=== Law enforcement ===
==== Wataru Takagi and Ninzaburo Shiratori ====
Megure and [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]] usually work together on criminal cases. [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], though an Inspector himself, is also frequently seen conducting investigations with Megure. Both policemen share cordial relationships with Megure and treat him with respect. He can be strict with them, but he also shows concern for them, if they are put in danger.

==== Miwako Sato ====
[[Miwako Sato|Miwako]] and Juzo have been shown to have a father-daughter relationship, probably because Sato's father had died at a young age.

==== Kiyonaga Matsumoto ====
[[Kiyonaga Matsumoto|Superintendent Matsumoto]] is Megure's superior. He has great respect for him.

== Character popularity ==
eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of ''Detective Conan'' (international included) could vote for their favorite character. Megure placed 24th in the poll with 17 votes out of the 5,883 that were cast.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ebookjapan.jp/ebj/special/conan/vote_kekka2.asp|title=『名探偵コナン』人気投票結|date=2011-05-12|publisher=eBookJapan|accessdate=2011-05-15}}</ref>

== Name origin ==
[[File:Detective 5.jpg|thumb|right|Maigret was featured by Gosho Aoyama in the fifth volume.]]
"Juzo Megure" comes from '''[[Wikipedia: Jules Maigret|Jules Maigret]]''', a fictional Paris police detective created by the writer Georges Simenon. Maigret and Megure physically resemble one another as well, both are stocky and somewhat overweight. Megure's first name "Juzo" has also been used as a pun on thirteen, the Japanese numeral.

== Quotes ==
{{cquote|No matter what circumstances, there is no justify taking another’s life!|Talking to the murderer|[[Episode 456]]}}

== Trivia ==
* Megure's scar has yet to be seen, because even when he was hospitalized, he either had his hat or had a bandage that wrapped the whole top of his head.
* Megure does not know how to work with computers well. He doesn't know the most basic jargon nor the proper way to turn one on or off.<ref name=379p>Manga Volume 37, File 7, :"Footsteps of Darkness 3"</ref>
* His last name Megure (目暮) is written with the characters for 'eye' and 'to get dark'. His first name Jūzō (十三) literally means 'thirteen'.
* Megure is the fourth character with most appearances, only less than the three protagonists.
* Megure’s original English voice actor Mark Stoddard reprised his role in the Netflix English dub.
** Mark Stoddard is also the only cast member that reprised his role from the original funimation English dub.

=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
Whilst the [[Detective Boys]] and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] were eating, they were simultaneously discussing such topics concerning the hit music bands presently. That was when they contended Tokumi Nagasu, Sumika Kokonoe, and Mao Toya; supposedly the three of them are fans for that band. Under the lead of their friend - the waitress Yasuko Aijima, they absently sat on their respective seats. Thereafter, [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], who happened to be inside the restaurant, discovered the presence of [[Sumiko Kobayashi|Mrs. Kobayashi]], [[Kazunobu Chiba|Detective Chiba]], and [[Shukichi Haneda]]. Considering the fact that each had their appropriate matches, every single lover would chill down.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Yasuko Aijima'''. Yasuko killed Tokumi with poison, that she ended up consuming with a fruit cream puff she ate.

Yasuko had actually poisoned the chair Tokumi was sitting on as the chair in question was wobbly and Tokumi had swapped it with another chair. The poisoned was on the bottom of the chair Tokumi was sitting on, and Yasuko made sure the chair was wobbly as well. When the lights went out for a little girl’s birthday celebration cake, Tokumi picked up her chair by grabbing the bottom while having it still pressed against her legs and back. She quickly swapped it with another chair and went back to their table, unaware that she had poison on her hands.

Then all Tokumi had to do was eat something with her hands and that would guarantee her death. She knew that Tokumi would sit on the right chair as in every group photo they’ve ever taken, she always stood or sat on the right as she believed that she looked better from that angle.

=== Motive ===
Mao and Sumika furious ask why she would do such a thing as one wrong mistake could have killed them as well. However, she coldly states that she didn’t care as she wanted them all dead for causing the death of the former Knight Hearts member Kenya Shibumi.

Kenya had been secretly dating someone and he had been exposed after a photo of him with his girlfriend was posted online after a fan took the photo. His girlfriend was revealed to be Yasuko and after his relationship was exposed to the public, his reputation was ruined and he found it harder to produce music and get more sponsors. As a result, he resorted to drinking and one day when he was stumbling across the street intoxicated, he was hit by a car and killed.

Yasuko devastated, decided to track down the person who took and posted the photo. It turned to be a female fan, who she asked to meet in a diner, where she told the fan that she and Kenya were genuinely in love and that she had no right to tell the world about them. However to her shock, the fan revealed that she had learned about where Kenya was going to be from Tokumi. And to add insult to injury she learned that Mao and Sumika had also been present with Tokumi when this happened and they did nothing to stop her. Which is why she decided to kill Tokumi along with Mao and Sumika for betraying her and for causing the death of the man she loved.

=== Epilogue ===
Conan reveals to Haibara that the reason why Chiba, Shiratori, Shukichi, Naeko, Kobayashi, and Yumi had been meeting in that diner was because the three girls told their boyfriends about meeting on the 8th for a special event. The three men believing it to be a romantic date of some sort, decided to consort the other girls for help to buy a gift for their respective girlfriends.

Ironically, Conan also reveals that all three girls had planned to go to a “Knight Hearts” concert with their boyfriends. They are shown together at the concert, the men while reluctant at first, decide to enjoy the concert to the fullest.
</spoiler>

== Manga to anime changes ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
* Several scenes and dialogues are added in anime version:
:* Haibara glaring at Conan when he intercepted her from investigating possible infidelity.
:* Chiba thanking Conan for summarizing the victim and suspects' information.
:* Naeko, after saying that Conan is just like a police officer, wonder if she should say a detective, with Chiba expression changed as she said that.
:* When Yasuko mentioned that Sumiko cheated with another band, Yumi and Naeko immediately look at Chiba and Shiratori.
:* Detective Boys singing "Bokura no Yume sa Kamen Yaiba", and later sleeping.
:* Conan sneezing after Kobayashi, Yumi, and Naeko talked about their ace-in-the-hold that they are all familiar with, followed by Haibara hoping the case can be solved soon so that she could know how the three-couple drama ends.
<spoiler>
:* The photograph of Kenya and Yasuko that made Kenya quit the band.
</spoiler>
* In the manga, after Conan received the camera footage from Yumi, he first reviewed on how Nagasu initially sat down and then ate french fries. This part is not adapted into anime.
<spoiler>
* In the manga, Yasuko mentioned that Mao and Sumika were there when Tokumi met Kenya's fan. Their appearance in that flashback is only shown in anime version.
</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* Due to the [[wikipedia:2024 Summer Olympics|2024 Summer Olympics]] broadcast, Episode 1131 was aired 2 weeks after Episode 1130.
* The suspects' names come from "family restaurant" chains (American-themed casual dining restaurants in Japan)<ref>http://mysteriouscolors.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-231.html</ref> :
** Tokumi Nagasu (長須篤美) comes from {{nihongo|[[wikipedia:ja:すかいらーく#ガスト|Gusto]]|ガスト|Gasuto}} ;

==== Part 1 ====
Whilst the [[Detective Boys]] and [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]] were eating, they were simultaneously discussing such topics concerning the hit music bands presently. That was when they contended Tokumi Nagasu, Sumika Kokonoe, and Mao Toya; supposedly the three of them are fans for that band. Under the lead of their friend - the waitress Yasuko Aijima, they absently sat on their respective seats. Thereafter, [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], [[Genta Kojima|Genta]], and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], who happened to be inside the restaurant, discovered the presence of [[Sumiko Kobayashi|Mrs. Kobayashi]], [[Kazunobu Chiba|Detective Chiba]], and [[Shukichi Haneda]]. Considering the fact that each had their appropriate matches, every single lover would chill down.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Yasuko Aijima'''. Yasuko killed Tokumi with poison, that she ended up consuming with a fruit cream puff she ate.

Yasuko had actually poisoned the chair Tokumi was sitting on as the chair in question was wobbly and Tokumi had swapped it with another chair. When the lights went out for a little girl’s birthday celebration cake, Tokumi picked up her chair by grabbing the bottom while having it still pressed against her legs and bottom. She quickly swapped it with another chair and went back to their table, unaware that she had poison on her hands.

Then all Tokumi had to do was eat something with her hands and that would guarantee her death. She knew that Tokumi would sit on the right chair as in every group photo they’ve ever taken, she always stood or sat on the right as she believed that she looked better from that angle.

=== Motive ===
Mao and Sumika furious ask why she would do such a thing as one wrong mistake could have killed them as well. However, she coldly states that she didn’t care as she wanted them all dead for causing the death of the former Knight Hearts member Kenya Shibumi.

Kenya had been secretly dating someone and he had been exposed after a photo of him with his girlfriend was posted online after a fan took the photo. His girlfriend was revealed to be Yasuko and after his relationship was exposed to the public, his reputation was ruined and he found it harder to produce music and get more sponsors. As a result, he resorted to drinking and one day when he was stumbling across the street intoxicated, he was hit by a car and killed.

Yasuko devastated, decided to track down the person who took and posted the photo. It turned to be a female fan, who she asked to meet in a diner, where she told the fan that she and Kenya were genuinely in love and that she had no right to tell the world about them. However to her shock, the fan revealed that she had learned about where Kenya was going to be from Tokumi. And to add insult to injury she learned that Mao and Sumika was also present with Tokumi when this happened and they did nothing to stop her. Which is why she decided to kill Tokumi along with Mao and Sumika for betraying her and for causing the death of the man she loved.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Yumi Nakata'''. Yumi had used a trick to make it look like she was still in her apartment when in reality, she was in the parking lot beating Kazuki Tsukishima to death. Yumi set up a towel on a Ring light and tied a rubber band on the top to mimic her hair bun, she then placed the Ring light on top of a luggage case to match her height.

She then tied a string connected to her curtain and attached the other end to her first cellphone and set it on the edge of a table next to the window. After she murdered Kazuki, she dialed the number of her first cellphone with her second one, which caused the phone to fall off the table pulling the curtain open. This gave the illusion that she had opened her curtain to peer outside, which was also captured on the surveillance camera.

Yumi used a blackjack to kill Kazuki, it involves placing a heavy object into a sock and swinging it with enough force to kill someone. She used Kazuki’s sock and an object of her own to create a blackjack. Detective Kansuke deduces that she had hidden the object in question in her hair bun, he noticed this as Detective Uehara also had her hair in a bun, but she has longer hair. While a photo revealed that Yumi’s hair was shoulder length, which meant that she did not have enough hair to tie it into a bun. Uehara undos her hair, which reveals a wrist weight that was hidden in her hair bun.

=== Motive ===
Detective Uehara asks why she didn’t just discard the evidence, but she didn’t have the heart to as the wrist weight was given to her by Chizu Yuba. Chizu had given to her as she did not have time to exercise or go to the gym.

Kyouko and Senta ask why she killed Kazuki and she reveals that she did it in revenge for him causing the death of Chizu’s mother and for putting Chizu into a coma. Years ago, the four of them Kazuki, Kyouko, Senta, and Yumi all came across a car accident, where Chizu and her mother were trapped in their car that was hanging off a steep cliff. They quickly managed to save Chizu, however the car ended up falling down the cliff killing her mother. However, Yumi found it strange as she knew they had enough time to save both of them and yet they failed.

Years later she learned the truth, Chizu had been looking around Kazuki’s laptop and found a video that he recorded of that fateful day. The video revealed that when Kyouko and Senta was attempting to save Chizu’s mother, Kazuki stopped them and told them that it would be better to save her when the ambulance came as it would look more heroic. However, as they were discussing this, the car ended up falling down the cliff which lead to Ms. Yuba’s death. Horrified that she had been lied to, Chizu recorded a copy of the video on her phone and sent a copy to Yumi, who was just as shocked after learning the truth.

Chizu confronted Kazuki with the video and out of fear he chased her to the stairs, where she fell and was left in a coma. After Yumi learned the truth, she intentionally invited Kazuki, Senta, and Kyouko to the hotel to kill Kazuki in revenge. She also intended to frame Kyouko and Senta for his murder as she also held the two of them responsible for what happened to Chizu and Ms. Yuba.

Yumi believes that if she hadn’t kept the wrist weight, she could’ve have gotten away with the murder. However, Detective Kansuke reveals that it would have not mattered as Kazuki with the last of his strength left a dying message with his own body. He positioned his body along the border between Gunma and Nagano to reveal the identity of his killer. He positioned his body to mimic Kanji and with the line going down the middle of his body, it spelled out her entire name: Yumi Nakata. </spoiler>

<spoiler>The culprit is '''Yumi Nakata'''. Yumi had used a trick to make it look like she was still in her apartment when in reality, she was in the parking lot beating Kazuki Tsukishima to death. Yumi set up a towel on a Ring light and tied a rubber band on the top to mimic her hair bun, she then placed the Ring light on top of a luggage case to match her height.

While a photo revealed that Yumi’s hair was shoulder length, which meant that she did not have enough hair to tie it into a bun. Uehara undos her hair, which reveals a wrist weight that was hidden in her hair bun.

=== Motive ===
Detective Uehara asks why she didn’t just discard the evidence, but she didn’t have the heart to as the wrist weight was given to her by Chizu Yuba. Chizu had given to her as she did not have time to exercise or go to the gym.

Kyouko and Senta ask why she killed Kazuki and she reveals that she did it in revenge for him causing the death of Chizu’s mother and for putting Chizu into a coma. Years ago, the four of them Kazuki, Kyouko, Senta, and Yumi all came across a car accident, where Chizu and her mother were trapped in their car that was hanging off a steep cliff. They quickly managed to save Chizu, however the car ended up falling down the cliff killing her mother. However, Yumi found it strange as she knew they had enough time to save both of them and yet they failed.

Years later she learned the truth, Chizu had been looking around Kazuki’s laptop and found a video that he recorded of that fateful day. The video revealed that when Kyouko and Senta was attempting to save Chizu’s mother, Kazuki stopped them and told them that it would be better to save her when the ambulance came as it would look more heroic. However, as they were discussing this, the car ended up falling down the cliff which lead to Ms. Yuba’s death. Horrified that she had been lied to, Chizu recorded a copy of the video on her phone and sent a copy to Yumi, who was just as shocked after learning the truth.

Chizu confronted Kazuki with the video and out of fear he chased her to the stairs, where she fell and was left in a coma. After Yumi learned the truth, she intentionally invited Kazuki, Senta, and Kyouko to the hotel to kill Kazuki in revenge. She also intended to frame Kyouko and Kazuki for his murder as she also held the two of them responsible for what happened to Chizu and Ms. Yuba.

Yumi believes that if she hadn’t kept the wrist weight, she could’ve have gotten away with the murder. However, Detective Kansuke reveals that it would have not mattered as Kazuki with the last of his strength left a dying message with his own body. He positioned his body along the border between Gunma and Nagano to reveal the identity of his killer. He positioned his body to mimic Kanji and with the line going down the middle of his body, it spelled out her entire name: Yumi Nakata. </spoiler>

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
After participating in the opening ceremony, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]], [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]], [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and the [[Detective Boys]] are enjoying the view from the observation deck of the 635-metre tall Bell Tree Tower. Suddenly, a bullet breaks through a window, strikes a man's chest and breaks a TV screen, causing everyone to panic. Conan stays calm and, using [[Telescopic Lenses|the zoom]] function on his [[Criminal Tracking Glasses|tracking glasses]] to follow the path of the bullet to its source, spots the sniper. He and [[Masumi Sera]], who had been present at the Tower as part of an assignment to shadow the victim, pursue the fleeing culprit on [[Vehicles in Detective Conan#Sera's Yamaha Artesia XT400|Masumi's motorcycle]], but the chase takes a violent turn when the suspect uses a handgun and even hand grenades to take out his pursuers. Even the [[FBI]] get involved in the chase, but the culprit and the mysteries of the sniping end up vanishing into the ocean.

The investigation turns up a connection to the special United States Navy squadron, the [[Wikipedia: Navy SEALS|Navy SEALS]] and other former US military officers working in Japan. However, the first sniping was just the beginning; as more people are shot, the citizens of Tokyo panic! What is the meaning of the rifle case and dice left behind? As his investigation progresses, Conan soon finds himself in the sniper's crosshairs, only to be saved by Masumi who intervenes and takes the bullet in his stead. And, in the background, [[Subaru Okiya]] begins to make his move.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The sniper/culprit is '''Kevin Yoshino''', while the entire murder plan was created by his master '''Timothy Hunter'''. Kevin became Hunter's student and helped him carry out the plan because he wanted to repay Hunter for saving his life during their war operations in the Middle East.

The reason for the serial killings was that Waltz was jealous of Hunter's achievements, which belittled his own actions. Waltz set Hunter up so the silver star he earned would be revoked. He even ordered Murphy to assassinate Hunter, but the bullet failed to kill him, although a fragment of it remained in Hunter's skull and damaged his optical nerves, severely impairing him. Yoshino eventually discovered the deception, but Waltz destroyed the evidence before it could be used in court, driving Hunter into conceiving his revenge plan. The five sniping positions used for the murders, if viewed from ground level, combine to form a pentagon, which marks five points that form a star signifying the Silver Star that was stolen from Hunter.

Ran, unaware of Conan's plan to save Ayumi decides to go after Kevin herself but is grazed by a bullet fired by Kevin. She ends up tripping and ends up being Kevin's target instead. She is saved thanks to the combined efforts of Conan and Subaru, and she manages to take Kevin down using her karate - for Ayumi, Sonoko and Sera. Afterwards, Subaru Okiya answers a call from [[James Black]] with [[Shuichi Akai]]'s voice. In the end, both Kevin Yoshino and Jack Waltz are arrested for their crimes.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* This movie is a commemorative work for the 20th anniversary of ''Detective Conan'' manga serialization.
* An official trailer was shown following ''[[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]]''.
* This is the only movie to feature [[Iemasa Kayumi]] as the voice of [[James Black]] (not counting ''Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie''), as he passed away on September 30, 2014.
* <spoiler>Even though Hunter was the main suspect until his murder, it was already shown that he's not the sniper at the beginning of the movie, as he can be seen walking on the street while the real culprit is escaping on bike.</spoiler>
* This film has a reference to the film ''Silence of the Lambs'': a scene in this film which the culprit watches Jodie through night vision goggles closely mirrors that of ''[[Wikipedia: The Silence of the Lambs|The Silence of the Lambs]]'' scene where the murderer watches [[Wikipedia: Clarice Starling|Clarice Starling]] through night vision goggles.
* The bike used by the culprit in the first chase (Shinjuku Se 33-17 (新宿　せ　33－17)) is a Honda XR 250R. Despite being an unmarked bike, this conclusion can be come to by the distinct red, white and black color scheme, as well as the fact that it is the only off-road bike with no windshield in the Honda line-up to be road legal.
* Moriyama drove a 2008 Sparkling Graphite Metallic BMW 3-Series; 330d (E90). The license plate number is 新宿 330, ま 8 05 (Shinjuku 330, Ma 8 05).
* Carlos Lee drives a white Mercedes-Benz C-Klasse [W204]. The license plate number is 新宿 330, な 30-58 (Shinjuku 330, Na 30-58).
* Kevin Yoshino's vans are a gray Daihatsu MOVE CUSTOM PARCO (L900S) and a black 2001 Mazda Bongo Friendee [SG].
* Jodie Starling's vehicle is a 2003 MERCEDES-BENZ CLK320 Elegance (Obsidian Black Metallic / Brilliant Silver Metallic (A209: Convertible)).
* The culprit's weapons are a SIG-Sauer P228, an IMI Micro Uzi, a Knight's Armament SR-25 with Harris bipod Mk 11 Mod 0 (used to kill Fujinami and Moriyama) and a Barrett M107.
* Timothy Hunter's sniper rifle used in the war is a Mk 11 Mod 0.
* Bill Murphy's gun used to shoot Timothy's head in the war scene is a pre-war Colt M1911A1 Pistol.
* Jack Waltz's sniper rifle is a Remington M24 SWS.
* This case location in the scene and the movie ending is [[Wikipedia: Tokyo Skytree|Tokyo Skytree]] in Asakusa.
* The name "Bell Tree" comes from a direct translation of the name Suzuki, with Suzu (鈴) meaning "bell" and ki (木) meaning "tree".
* <spoiler>Subaru Okiya's identity as Shuichi Akai is essentially revealed during the final sniper battle, as it is revealed that the "only sniper able to shoot that far [from Asakusa Sky Court] is missing, presumably dead..." and was part of the FBI. This is later confirmed when Subaru clicks a button under his sweater while talking to James Black, his voice returning to Shuichi Akai's.</spoiler>
* The same police car from [[Mystery of the Burning Tent]] appeared and was shot by the culprit and damaged. It suggests the car has at least been repaired once.
* The movie is promoted with two special guest voice actors. Comedian [[Wikipedia: Patrick Harlan|Patrick Harlan]] of the Comedy-Duo [[wikipedia:ja:パックンマックン|Pakkun Makkun]] as Jack Waltz and actor [[Wikipedia: Sota Fukushi|Sota Fukushi]] as Kevin Yoshino. Detective Akahoshi's voice actor also has a guest star, as he is [[Wikipedia: Norihiro Akahoshi|Norihiro Akahoshi]], a professional baseball player.<ref>https://eiga.com/news/20140317/11/</ref><ref>https://eiga.com/news/20140325/1/</ref>
* In the Netflix live action series '''Prince of Tennis (2019)''', two of the characters were shown watching the Chinese version of this movie in episode 13.

==== Part 1 ====
Two TV producers, Shogo Somei and Maiko Kazumi, ask Kogoro to star on his own show. Kogoro agrees and they plan a meeting for the following day. The next day, Somei picks Kogoro, Ran, and Conan up to meet with his manager, Raisaku Nakame, to discuss the show. When they arrive to Nakame's apartment on the twentieth floor, Somei reveals that Nakame had been talking about killing himself lately, prompting the idea Nakame has committed suicide. They call the apartment manager who opens the door and cuts the door chain allowing them access to the room. They find Nakame who had died because of poison in his coffee.

The police suspect the possibility of murder with the hypothesis that the culprit offered Nakame poisoned coffee before leaving and told Nakame to lock his door with a door chain. Conan investigates the coffee stains and realizes the culprit was with Nakame before he died. This means the culprit somehow placed the door chain back on the door before leaving. The police suspect Somei to be the culprit and that he had tampered the scene to hide how the murder was done.

==== Part 2 ====
Conan's investigation reveals that Somei tampered with the evidence to suggest Nakame was alone during his time of death. Conan reveals that there were originally two plates, two cups of coffee, and two pieces of cake. Somei took the piece of cake and placed it with the other piece to make it seem as if they were one piece. He then poured coffee from one of the cups into a plant and pretended the cup was a container for pens. For the other plate, he placed it under the spilled coffee cup to act as a saucer.

<spoiler>Somei confesses to the murder. Conan at the same time tranquilizes Kogoro to reveal that Somei is innocent. He reveals that a store employee heard Somei talking to '''Maiko Kuzumi''' at the time of the murder before calling Kogoro for the meeting; However, the meeting has been cancelled the day before. This suggests that Kogoro was used so Somei would be able to enter Nakame's apartment and tamper with the evidence. Conan reveals the only motive for Somei's actions was to cast suspicion on himself so Maiko's name would not be tarnished with murder. Conan deduces that the phone call from Maiko was so she could confess her love to him before she committed suicide by jumping off the twenty story building. As evidence, Conan reveals that Somei, who was late to the meeting, must have hid Maiko's body in the trunk of his car. Conan reveals that Maiko murdered Nakame because he was harassing and overworking Somei and seeing him tired motivated her to murder.

At the end of the episode, Ran wanting to eat some cake looks inside a box and finds what appears to be a single slice of cake. She asks Kogorō what happened to the second slice, but he claims that there is two slices, but Conan and Ran quickly realize that Kogorō had already eaten one of the cakes and cut the last slice in half and make it look like there was two slices. But Conan says he doesn’t want to eat the cake after all and Ran agrees as well, as this reminds them of the heartbreaking case. </spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* This is the last episode to be aired on Monday 7.30 p.m. JST.
* This is the first episode to utilize a Kid variation of the "Next Episode" title card image. Because the next episode is a Kid-related episode, instead of Conan's glasses and bowtie, Kid's card and his right-eye glass has taken its place.
* Shogo Somei and Maiko Kuzumi's vehicle is a light green 2006 Honda Civic [FD].

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The three victims actually murdered each other albeit unintentionally. Chika wanted to make it looked like Yuuichi and Kouko planned to kill her by injecting poison into two of her chocolate bars and then hid the syringe inside Yuuichi's room.

Yuuichi's death was because he took the poisoned sleeping pills that '''Kouko Shimura''' intended for Chika to use, while Kouko died from the poison that '''Yuuichi Kaidou''' smeared on Chika’s glass. Chika had taken the glass to the kitchen to use it to drink some water or tea, because earlier her vase that was filled with water was knocked over. But she changed her mind at the last second leaving behind the poisoned glass, that same glass was found and eventually used to drink some water which ended in another death.

While Yuuichi was setting up the poison, along with being shaken from committing a murder, Toda's call surprised him and he ended up bumping into the box of chocolate bars, causing them to fall on floor. He then hastily picked them up changing the positions of the two poisoned chocolate bars. Unaware of this, Chika threw away two chocolate bars thinking they were the ones that she herself poisoned and '''accidentally''' picked up the poisoned bar and ate it, resulting in her death.

In conclusion this was the sequence of events: first Kouko took the poisoned sleeping pills and placed them in Chika’s room, afterwards Yuuichi entered the room and rubbed poison on Chika glass cup. As he was leaving he had taken the poisoned sleeping pills that Kouko had left to calm himself down after committing the deed. He took the pills and died shortly there after, when Chika had been talking on the phone to her friend she had knocked over her vase filled with water and not wanting to drink from that she took the poisoned glass to the kitchen.

However for some reason she changed her mind and decided not to drink any water and left her glass cup there, where it was found by Kouko who drank water from the same glass cup and died as well. Chika later on discovered that both her husband Yuuichi and Chika were dead, as they had inadvertently killed each other. She laughed gleefully believing she had won and had cheated death, which explains why Kogoro witnessed her laughing during the night of the "murders". She then went to her room and threw away two of the chocolate bars that she believed were the ones she poisoned and starting writing on her laptop, having found some inspiration during the whole ordeal.

At the same she was eating one of her chocolate bars, however what she did not know was that the positions of the chocolate bars had been switched around due to Yuuichi being a nervous wreck and had accidentally knocked over the box of chocolate bars. As a result they ended up getting mixed up including the poisoned ones, as he hastily put the chocolate bars back in the box and left. As a result the third chocolate bar the one Chika just ate was one of the two poisoned chocolate bars and as a result she died shortly after writing the beginning of her newest and last novel.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* The chocolate bar Chika was eating is named Chocolate Shock and is a parody of a popular brand in Japan called [[Wikipedia: Black Thunder (chocolate bar)|Big Thunder]].
* The painting in Kaidou villa is about the red leaf room from [[Solving Mysteries at the Red Leaf Palace#Trivia|Solving Mysteries at the Red Leaf Palace]].

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The three victims actually murdered each other albeit unintentionally. Chika wanted to make it looked like Yuuichi and Kouko planned to kill her by injecting poison into two of her chocolate bars and then hid the syringe inside Yuuichi's room.

Yuuichi's death was because he took the poisoned sleeping pills that '''Kouko Shimura''' intended for Chika to use, while Kouko died from the poison that '''Yuuichi Kaidou''' smeared on Chika’s glass. Chika had taken the glass to the kitchen to use it to drink some water or tea, because earlier her vase that was filled with water was knocked over. But she changed her mind at the last second leaving behind the poisoned glass, that same glass was found and eventually used to drink some water which ended in another death.

While Yuuichi was setting up the poison, along with being shaken from committing a murder, Toda's call surprised him and he ended up bumping into the box of chocolate bars, causing them to fall on floor. He then hastily picked them up changing the positions of the two poisoned chocolate bars. Unaware of this, Chika threw away two chocolate bars thinking they were the ones that she herself poisoned and '''accidentally''' picked up the poisoned bar and ate it, resulting in her death.

In conclusion this was the sequence of events: first Kouko took the poisoned sleeping pills and placed them in Chika’s room, afterwards Yuuichi entered the room and rubbed poisoned on Chika glass cup. As he was leaving he had taken the poisoned sleeping pills that Kouko had left to calm himself down after committing the deed. He took the pills and died shortly there after, when Chika had been talking on the phone to her friend she had knocked over her vase filled with water and not wanting to drink from that she took the poisoned glass to the kitchen.

However for some reason she changed her mind and decided not to drink any water and left her glass cup there, where it was found by Kouko who drank water from the same glass cup and died as well. Chika later on discovered that both her husband Yuuichi and Chika were dead, as they had inadvertently killed each other. She laughed gleefully believing she had won and had cheated death, which explains why Kogoro witnessed her laughing during the night of the "murders". She then went to her room and threw away two of the chocolate bars that she believed were the ones she poisoned and starting writing on her laptop, having found some inspiration during the whole ordeal.

At the same she was eating one of her chocolate bars, however what she did not know was that the positions of the chocolate bars had been switched around due to Yuuichi being a nervous wreck and had accidentally knocked over the box of chocolate bars. As a result they ended up getting mixed up including the poisoned ones, as he hastily put the chocolate bars back in the box and left. As a result the third chocolate bar the one Chika just ate was one of the two poisoned chocolate bars and as a result she died shortly after writing the beginning of her newest and last novel.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
As Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are on their way home from a hot spring in Komono, Mie Prefecture, they boarded a train together with a pair of doctors. They arrived at a station where one may change trains to another line, but no one could possibly change trains since the two lines are scheduled differently by a mere five-minute difference. At the station where the trio are to change trains to one going to Tokyo, a murder is discovered. The only suspect rides in the train with Conan's group while the victim rides on a train from a different line.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Takashi Date'''.

He used a series of tricks to kill the victim and maintain a alibi. When the train stopped at Mizunokawa Station, he got off and disguised himself by putting on a mustache and hat as well as turning his reversible jacket inside out. Then he got on the train where Utsumi was. He was able to delay the train via phone call claiming to be a passenger who forgot his belongings on the train. He then sat down across from Utsumi and after talking he ambushed and injected him with a syringe full of medicine that induced a heart attack.

He robbed the victim including a substantial amount of coins to give the impression of an indiscriminate robbery. However this itself was strange as there was a better target: a rich woman who was wearing expensive jewelry and most likely had a large amount of money as well.

The possibility of fingerprints on the money was brought up, but Date claimed that Utsumi had lent him money so finding his fingerprints wouldn't mean anything. However Conan as Kogoro says that was not what he meant when he mentioned fingerprints. He meant that the coins had fingerprints from the Stewardess. Utsumi had bought a drink from the stewardess with a 10,000 yen bill, however she did not have 1,000 yen bills so she gave him his change in coins.

So should any of the stewardess's fingerprints be found on the those coins, that will prove that Date was on the train with Utsumi. Faced with the overwhelming evidence he breaks down and confesses his guilt, revealing his motive to be that the rumors about him receiving kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies were indeed true and that Utsumi had found out and blackmailed him for it. Date agreed to buy the negatives but believed Utsumi secretly had more. He did not want to be blackmailed for the rest of his life so he decided to kill him.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
Two security guards at the Beika Art Museum see a medieval suit of armor moving on its own. Ran hears the rumor and wants to visit the museum; when Conan and Kogoro mock her for believing it might be true, she forces them to come along after her fearsome display of smashing Kogoro's deck with her fist. While admiring a painting, Ran meets Ochiai, the curator of the museum, who explains his love for the art and then berates a museum worker named Kubota for not handling a painting properly. Another worker, Iijima, takes over the job before they are interrupted by the museum's new owner, Manaka, arriving with an architect. The museum will be demolished soon to make a casino, despite the sale having hinged on the promise to keep the museum open. After Kubota accidentally drops a helmet, Manaka mentions his plans to sell all the museum pieces, which frustrates Kubota enough to throw it down after, but Conan notices that Ochiai doesn't lecture Kubota this time.

Conan, Kogoro and Ran visit the rest of the museum. As they are about to leave, Ran notices a previously closed gallery has reopened and convinces the other two to come along. In the "Hell Gallery" they first see a large painting of a knight having stabbed a demon in the name of justice, as the wrath of heaven. Ran then hears a dripping sound and turns to find that Manaka has been pinned to the opposite wall by a sword through the throat.

}}

Inspector Megure arrives to investigate, and he, Kogoro, and Conan check the surveillance cameras to see if the culprit was recorded. However, the murderer had been lying in wait in the guise of a knight's suit of armor.

The surveillance camera caught all of Manaka's brutal murder, multiple stabbings ending with him pinned to the wall and the knight walking away, towards the camera — exactly like, Kogoro and Conan realize, the painting in the gallery. Because the gallery was blocked off at 4 p.m. but re-opened by 5 p.m., and the video timestamps set the murder at about 4:30 p.m., Inspector Megure deduces that the murderer must be a museum worker. Conan also notices that Manaka tried to write something on a piece of paper between the first attack and his death; while he threw the pen away, the paper remains crumpled in his hand, and names Kubota as the killer. Kubota has no alibi as Ochiai had him doing a task in the office, where he was alone. He has motive because, as Iijima reveals, the owner wanted Kubota to repay the money he'd made selling pieces off secretly.

Conan finds a pen on the ground, which anyone in the museum could have forgotten on the table. It matches the video image and has ink, so Inspector Megure concludes that it was the pen Manaka used. Kubota is detained as they wait for the suit of armor to be found. Conan is unsatisfied with Kubota's apparent carelessness and why he would mirror a painting when he has no great love for art. He's also not sure if he's really the suspect. When Conan went back to the surveillance camera room, he lies the police officers that Inspector Megure needs help. When the police officers went out, he has now the chance to watch the surveillance footage one more time. He notices that Manaka looks shocked when he sees the paper he writes on, and realizes that the pen Conan found had its point retracted, when there wouldn't have been reason or time for Manaka to retract it before throwing it away. Conan tricks his way into re-examining the dying message, and finds inkless scribbles over the original writing. The police find the armor in Kubota's locker, but Conan has figured out the truth and knows the murderer's trick.

<spoiler>
* '''Evidence'''
** The security camera recorded Manaka as he seemingly waited for someone. Suddenly, with agility and precision, the relic knight appeared behind him and struck him in the back with its sword. While it prepared to strike again, the owner barely managed to grab a tag from a painting display and a pen that was left right below the art tags, and wrote something down and threw the pen away. The knight slashed him once more and with a final thrust ended his life.
** Inspector Megure and Kogoro found a museum staff member's name, Kubota, written on the crumpled paper in Manaka's hand.
** Conan also found the pen on the floor nearby at the armor display.
** The bloodied suit of armor was discovered in Kubota's locker.
** Conan noticed that the pen had its point retracted, the crumpled paper had inkless pen marks on it, and that the artwork tags were in the room, but the pieces weren't. Certainly, Kubota, who didn't seem to have a penchant for the arts, wouldn't have thought to protect those from being damaged.
** Conan viewed the security footage one more time and noticed that when Manaka took the tag and looked at it, he was shocked by what he saw on it.

* '''Conclusion'''
Manaka was scheduled to have a meeting with '''Ochiai''', the art museum director. Little did the owner know that the director had planned for his death. Ochiai dressed himself with the suit of armor, strategically placed the tag with Kubota's name written on it and the pen with which Manaka apparently used to write the note, and then murdered Manaka medieval style.

But the little eye of justice had tricks of his own. Conan pulled an "innocent" act of wanting the directions to the toilet be written down by Ochiai. And before the director knew it, he drew the inkless pen from his pocket.

* '''Motive'''
In the hopes of getting the art museum to stay open, the previous owner who got bankrupt sold the museum to Manaka. Manaka, however, was consumed by his own greed and planned to convert the building into a casino.

Ochiai was not going to let it happen as he considered the artworks as his own children. He killed Manaka to prevent the inevitable.

And as for Kubota, Ochiai thought it just right to punish the person who had been selling the museum’s art relics and pieces secretly.

Ochiai also stated that although he committed the murder mimicking the painting of the Heroic Knight killing the Devil. There was more to the story, after the Heroic Knight killed the Devil he became soaked in the Devil's tainted blood causing him to become what he tried to destroy.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* "Divine Punishment" is modeled after archangel Michael as he's casting a demon out of Heaven.

== Remastered version ==
A remastered version of this case was aired on January 21, 2017.

== Manga to anime changes ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
* In the anime, Ran smashed Korogo's desk to make him and Conan come to the museum. In the manga, she smashed a storage locker.
* At the end of the case in the manga version, Kogoro Mouri is shown reading a newspaper article about himself because he helped the police solve the murder of the museum's owner. This marks the first claim to fame of Kogoro. In the anime version, this is replaced with a scene of the Detective Boys discussing about the aftermath of the museum, and their plan of investigating a case about a "moving skeleton" at night.

== Translation changes ==
=== Anime ===
* The names of the characters in the [[Funimation]] Dub are:
:* Ochiai - Mr. O'Donnell
:* Iijima - Isaac
* While Manaka and Kubota retain their names in the English Dub, they are named Morrison and Kowalski respectively in the ending credits.

== Episode Prologue: The Second White Room ==
<spoiler>Shinichi, Ran, and Kogoro discover another password panel and a spoon above their heads seemingly floating in midair. Shinichi grabs at it and discovers it was being suspended by fishing line and realizes the spoon is a reference to a murder case he solved involving a psychic and a TV show program. Remembering the case Shinichi is referring to, Ran enters "MA-JI-K-KU" ("Magic") for the password on the panel.</spoiler>

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
Shinichi is a secondary guest on a live TV show called "The Showdown" hosted by Takayuki Harada and Asako Mizutani. The main guest is Jiro Washimi, a psychic who claims his abilities are not the result of magic and contain no secrets, tricks, or gimmicks. The show decides to pit Washimi's abilities against Shinichi's deductive reasoning to prove whether ESP exists or not. Washimi proceeds to demonstrate his abilities by bending a spoon's stem backwards. Shinichi, unimpressed, demonstrates himself by seeming to bend a spoon sideways with his mind before revealing that anybody can bend spoons with their fingers given time and practice. Washimi becomes frustrated and Harada eggs him on by suggesting if he really wants to prove his psychic abilities, he should try killing him.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
* '''Evidence'''
** Shinichi reveals that the strangulation marks on Harada's neck are actually just makeup, so Harada must have died from some other cause.
** Shinichi has Washimi reenact his murder on Ran, revealing that like Ran, Harada was only acting like he was being strangled. The purpose of the TV program was to pull a hidden camera surprise prank ("dokkiri") on Washimi.
** After everybody gathered around Harada after being strangled, Harada suddenly clutched at his heart before dying. Shinichi comments that Harada didn't show real physical signs of strangulation, but rather those of being poisoned from intravenous injection. Therefore Harada's true cause of death is acute heart failure and shock.
** After Kogoro is held-back from hurting Washimi after thinking Ran was strangled, Hayashi brushes Washimi off with her hands.
** Shinichi remembers that earlier in Harada's dressing room, Ran had asked Harada for an autograph but couldn't find a pen. Harada is angry with Hayashi, calling her ugly, and as Hayashi was leaving Shinichi noticed that she had a pen in her messenger bag.
** There is a second syringe pen in Washimi's upper pocket for medication.

* '''Conclusion'''
Despite Washimi's arguments otherwise, Shinichi concludes that Washimi is the only person who couldn't possibly be a suspect in Harada's murder. Shinichi then states that '''Seiko Hayashi''' is the true murderer and that the real murder weapon, a syringe pen with poison, is in Washimi's pocket. While Harada was lying on the ground, Hayashi took the pen out of the front of her bag and secretly stuck Harada with it. This is why a few moments later Harada suddenly clutched at his heart instead of his neck. When Hayashi brushed Washimi off she hid the murder weapon in his lower pocket.

* '''Motive'''
Hayashi's motive for killing Harada is that Harada lied to her about Hayashi being able to make her debut someday on TV, despite being loyal to him for seven years. She was meant to be Harada's assistant on "The Showdown" but Harada replaced her with Mizutani instead.</spoiler>

== Episode Resolution: The Third White Room ==
<spoiler>Ran is surprised to discover "Magic" isn't the password. Shinichi then enters the correct password "DO-K-KI-RI" and the door opens. As Shinichi, Ran, and Kogoro walk into the room they immediately duck to the floor upon hearing the sound of a gunshot. The password panel in the center of the room reads 2010.07.09 and has four blank boxes. Shinichi asks Kogoro if he remembers this case and Kogoro replies he couldn't possibly ever forget it.</spoiler>

==== Situation ====
Heiji takes Kazuha, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan to East Okuho after receiving a letter from Makoto Okuda addressed to Shinichi; The letter tells Shinichi to meet with him so he could explain Shinichi's mistake in his deduction from his investigation one year ago. Upon arrival, the group learns that Makoto has been missing for over a year; Conan sneaks away from the group and heads to the meeting location disclosed in the letter and is subsequently trapped inside a shed by an unknown culprit. Conan realizes that he mistakenly took the antidote to the APTX 4869 in place of his cold medicine; He escapes through a window and falls into the river before becoming Shinichi again. Heiji and the others find an amnesic Shinichi by the shore; the villagers believe that the Shiragami, a deity living in the forest, cursed Shinichi resulting in his amnesia. Haibara tells Heiji that the antidote would wear off in 24 hours and if Shinichi still retains his amnesia even after reverting back to Conan, his identity would be exposed. Heiji learns that Shinichi was called to investigate the murder of the mayor and his wife which was concluded to be a forced double suicide. A journalist named Misato Kawauchi threatens to reveal Shinichi's secret if he does not confess to faking his amnesia. The following day, Kawauchi is found with a knife wound with Shinichi beside her holding a knife covered in her blood.

The group believing Shinichi is being framed, hides him from the authorities until they can prove his innocence. Heiji attempts to deduce how the culprit was able to frame Shinichi for the stabbing and believes it is related to the past case Shinichi solved.

Meanwhile, Ran runs into the forest hoping to confront the Shiragami to remove his curse on Shinichi but loses consciousness after falling off a cliff. Ran wakes up in a hut in the woods and discovers someone had treated her wounds from when she fell. Eventually, Kazuha finds Ran and calls Kogoro in. Heiji radios them from the next room. They all go over and find that the room is filled with pictures of Shinichi with knife marks on one of them. After observing the cabin, Heiji figures out the case and they head back to Hinohara's house.

==== Resolution ====
<spoiler>Heiji figures out that the Shinichi with the group is not the real Shinichi, but the supposedly missing '''Makoto Okuda'''. Makoto had undergone plastic surgery to look like Shinichi and faked the amnesia in order to frame Shinichi in revenge for his previous deduction that the deaths of his adoptive parents was actually a murder-suicide instead of a burglary. He attacked the reporter because he thought she knew the truth about who he really was and would have outed him.

}}

The Shiragami that Ran encountered in the woods enters the room during Heiji's deduction and reveals that he is the real Shinichi, and had been hiding out in the woods disguised as the Shiragami while keeping an eye on everyone to prevent Makoto from reacting violently if he were to appear and ruin his plans. The attack on Misato Kawaguchi was because Makoto feared that she managed to deduce his true identity after hearing her ambiguous words.

The crime one year ago that Shinichi had solved and was hated for was explained in full: he wasn't wrong in his deduction, but he did lie about the motive. The mayor did kill his wife and himself, not because he was terminally ill like Shinichi had told everyone, but because he discovered that the child he believed to be his son was actually the result of an affair his wife had. His illness did play a part, because when he was examined, he learned that his blood type was AB instead of O, which he had always believed that his blood type was and which was Daiki's blood type. According to Mendel's law of hereditary, a type-AB human and a type-O human cannot be parents to another type-O human. Shinichi and the police had chosen to keep it a secret, but had decided to tell Makoto as he deserved to know the truth. Makoto was told about this, but he was in such a state of shock at the time that he didn't hear a word of it. Makoto breaks down crying in despair that he changed his face over nothing.

===== Aftermath =====
The group is informed that Misato Kawaguchi's wound was not serious and she is expected to make a full recovery. Shinichi also explains that one year ago, Makoto was the one who saved Misato's daughter from getting lost in the forest as the Shiragami, a role he continued after the death of his biological father who started the tradition after the death of his sister. He also adds that Makoto is likely to have his punishment lessened once they explain the full situation to Misato.

After Makoto is arrested, Ran, Heiji, Shinichi, Kazuha, and Kogoro walk back toward the hotel. Before they can reach it, the prototype antidote for APTX 4869 starts to wear off, and Heiji helps Shinichi escape to the bathroom to change back. Haibara had been hiding there, and she gave Shinichi another antidote. Then, she says to return to Tokyo before he changes back if he wishes to keep his identity a secret.</spoiler>

The police are able to stop traffic by ordering a toll gate to refuse cars passage. Shinichi and Heiji reveal that the victim died while driving evidenced by his body temperature. They are able to narrow the list of suspects to three people by examining the time on their toll tickets and matching it with the victims. The three suspects reveal that the victim was a famous street racer who went under the name Gunpei who quit racing when he caused the death of a man named Akira during a race. The three each have a motive for the murder. Shinichi and Heiji notice that there are holes in the car window by the side of the driver's seat and realize how the murder is done.

<spoiler>Shinichi and Heiji both reveal that the culprit is '''Riko Mizohashi''', Akira's girlfriend. They explain that Riko gave Gunpei sleeping pills forcing Gunpei to pull over and sleep in a rest stop. While asleep, Mizohashi drilled holes into Gunpei's window and set up a fishing line through the holes and looped it around Gunpei's neck. After Gunpei wakes up and begins to drive, Mizohashi drove up beside him and signaled to him that she has something to tell him. Gunpei lowers his window which causes the fishing line to tighten around his neck and causes his death. Mizohashi confesses and reveals Furuki challenged Akira a race but in the race there was a storm that it must not be a conditions of a race causing Akira's car swept by the slippery floor and fell in the depths of the valley where the race happened and died with his hands clinched to the steering wheel. Shinichi tells Mizohashi that Gunpei actually regrets his actions that he done when Akira's death in the past, meaning that Gunpei knows about Mizohashi's plan for murdering him all along. He ''willingly'' accepted his death so he can pay the actions he done in the past. After solving the murder, the antidote to the APTX 4869 begins to wear off and Shinichi begins to change back to Conan. He attempts to seclude himself for the transformation but Ran grabs onto his hand and refuses to let go.</spoiler>

==== Situation ====
Heiji takes Kazuha, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan to East Okuho after receiving a letter from Makoto Okuda addressed to Shinichi; The letter tells Shinichi to meet with him so he could explain Shinichi's mistake in his deduction from his investigation one year ago. Upon arrival, the group learns that Makoto has been missing for over a year; Conan sneaks away from the group and heads to the meeting location disclosed in the letter and is subsequently trapped inside a shed by an unknown culprit. Conan realizes that he mistakenly took the antidote to the APTX 4869 in place of his cold medicine; He escapes through a window and falls into the river before becoming Shinichi again. Heiji and the others find an amnesic Shinichi by the shore; the villagers believe that the Shiragami, a deity living in the forest, cursed Shinichi resulting in his amnesia. Haibara tells Heiji that the antidote would wear off in 24 hours and if Shinichi still retains his amnesia even after reverting back to Conan, his identity would be exposed. Heiji learns that Shinichi was called to investigate the murder of the mayor and his wife which was concluded to be a forced double suicide. A journalist named Misato Kawauchi threatens to reveal Shinichi's secret if he does not confess to faking his amnesia. The following day, Kawauchi is found with a knife wound with Shinichi beside her holding a knife covered in her blood.

The group believing Shinichi is being framed, hides him from the authorities until they can prove his innocence. Heiji attempts to deduce how the culprit was able to frame Shinichi for the stabbing and believes it is related to the past case Shinichi solved.

Meanwhile, Ran runs into the forest hoping to confront the Shiragami to remove his curse on Shinichi but loses consciousness after falling off a cliff. Ran wakes up in a hut in the woods and discovers someone had treated her wounds from when she fell. Eventually, Kazuha finds Ran and calls Kogoro in. Heiji radios them from the next room. They all go over and find that the room is filled with pictures of Shinichi with knife marks on one of them. After observing the cabin, Heiji figures out the case and they head back to Hinohara's house.

==== Resolution ====
<spoiler>Heiji figures out that the Shinichi with the group is not the real Shinichi, but the supposedly missing '''Makoto Okuda'''. Makoto had undergone plastic surgery to look like Shinichi and faked the amnesia in order to frame Shinichi in revenge for his previous deduction that the deaths of his adoptive parents was actually a murder-suicide instead of a burglary. He attacked the reporter because he thought she knew the truth about who he really was and would have outed him.

The Shiragami that Ran encountered in the woods enters the room during Heiji's deduction and reveals that he is the real Shinichi, and had been hiding out in the woods disguised as the Shiragami while keeping an eye on everyone to prevent Makoto from reacting violently if he were to appear and ruin his plans. The attack on Misato Kawaguchi was because Makoto feared that she managed to deduce his true identity after hearing her ambiguous words.

The crime one year ago that Shinichi had solved and was hated for was explained in full: he wasn't wrong in his deduction, but he did lie about the motive. The mayor did kill his wife and himself, not because he was terminally ill like Shinichi had told everyone, but because he discovered that the child he believed to be his son was actually the result of an affair his wife had. His illness did play a part, because when he was examined, he learned that his blood type was AB instead of O, which he had always believed that his blood type was and which was Daiki's blood type. According to Mendel's law of hereditary, a type-AB human and a type-O human cannot be parents to another type- O human. Shinichi and the police had chosen to keep it a secret, but had decided to tell Makoto as he deserved to know the truth. Makoto was told about this, but he was in such a state of shock at the time that he didn't hear a word of it. Makoto breaks down crying in despair that he changed his face over nothing.

===== Aftermath =====
The group is informed that Misato Kawaguchi's wound was not serious and she is expected to make a full recovery. Shinichi also explains that one year ago, Makoto was the one who saved Misato's daughter from getting lost in the forest as the Shiragami, a role he continued after the death of his biological father who started the tradition after the death of his sister. He also adds that Makoto is likely to have his punishment lessened once they explain the full situation to Misato.

After Makoto is arrested, Ran, Heiji, Shinichi, Kazuha, and Kogoro walk back toward the hotel. Before they can reach it, the prototype antidote for APTX 4869 starts to wear off, and Heiji helps Shinichi escape to the bathroom to change back. Haibara had been hiding there, and she gave Shinichi another antidote. Then, she says to return to Tokyo before he changes back if he wishes to keep his identity a secret.</spoiler>

The police are able to stop traffic by ordering a toll gate to refuse cars passage. Shinichi and Heiji reveal that the victim died while driving evidenced by his body temperature. They are able to narrow the list of suspects to three people by examining the time on their toll tickets and matching it with the victims. The three suspects reveal that the victim was a famous street racer who went under the name Gunpei who quit racing when he caused the death of a man named Akira during a race. The three each have a motive for the murder. Shinichi and Heiji notice that there are holes in the car window by the side of the driver's seat and realize how the murder is done.

==== Resolution ====
<spoiler>Shinichi and Heiji both reveal that the culprit is '''Riko Mizohashi''', Akira's girlfriend. They explain that Riko gave Gunpei sleeping pills forcing Gunpei to pull over and sleep in a rest stop. While asleep, Mizohashi drilled holes into Gunpei's window and set up a fishing line through the holes and looped it around Gunpei's neck. After Gunpei wakes up and begins to drive, Mizohashi drove up beside him and signaled to him that she has something to tell him. Gunpei lowers his window which causes the fishing line to tighten around his neck and causes his death. Mizohashi confesses and reveals Furuki challenged Akira a race but in the race there was a storm that it must not be a conditions of a race causing Akira's car swept by the slippery floor and fell in the depths of the valley where the race happened and died with his hands clinched to the steering wheel. Shinichi tells Mizohashi that Gunpei actually regrets his actions that he done when Akira's death in the past, meaning that Gunpei knows about Mizohashi's plan for murdering him all along. He ''willingly'' accepted his death so he can pay the actions he done in the past. After solving the murder, the antidote to the APTX 4869 begins to wear off and Shinichi begins to change back to Conan. He attempts to seclude himself for the transformation but Ran grabs onto his hand and refuses to let go.</spoiler>

==== Situation ====
Heiji takes Kazuha, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan to East Okuho after receiving a letter from Makoto Okuda addressed to Shinichi; The letter tells Shinichi to meet with him so he could explain Shinichi's mistake in his deduction from his investigation one year ago. Upon arrival, the group learns that Makoto has been missing for over a year; Conan sneaks away from the group and heads to the meeting location disclosed in the letter and is subsequently trapped inside a shed by an unknown culprit. Conan realizes that he mistakenly took the antidote to the APTX 4869 in place of his cold medicine; He escapes through a window and falls into the river before becoming Shinichi again. Heiji and the others find an amnesic Shinichi by the shore; the villagers believe that the Shiragami, a deity living in the forest, cursed Shinichi resulting in his amnesia. Haibara tells Heiji that the antidote would wear off in 24 hours and if Shinichi still retains his amnesia even after reverting back to Conan, his identity would be exposed. Heiji learns that Shinichi was called to investigate the murder of the mayor and his wife which was concluded to be a forced double suicide. A journalist named Misato Kawauchi threatens to reveal Shinichi's secret if he does not confess to faking his amnesia. The following day, Kawauchi is found with a knife wound with Shinichi beside her holding a knife covered in her blood.

The group believing Shinichi is being framed, hides him from the authorities until they can prove his innocence. Heiji attempts to deduce how the culprit was able to frame Shinichi for the stabbing and believes it is related to the past case Shinichi solved.

Meanwhile, Ran runs into the forest hoping to confront the Shiragami to remove his curse on Shinichi but loses consciousness after falling off a cliff. Ran wakes up in a hut in the woods and discovers someone had treated her wounds from when she fell. Eventually, Kazuha finds Ran and calls Kogoro in. Heiji radios them from the next room. They all go over and find that the room is filled with pictures of Shinichi with knife marks on one of them. After observing the cabin, Heiji figures out the case and they head back to Hinohara's house.

==== Resolution ====
<spoiler>Heiji figures out that the Shinichi with the group is not the real Shinichi, but the supposedly missing '''Makoto Okuda'''. Makoto had undergone plastic surgery to look like Shinichi and faked the amnesia in order to frame Shinichi in revenge for his previous deduction that the deaths of his adoptive parents was actually a murder-suicide instead of a burglary. He attacked the reporter because he thought she knew the truth about who he really was and would have outed him.

The Shiragami that Ran encountered in the woods enters the room during Heiji's explanation and reveals that he is the real Shinichi, and had been hiding out in the woods disguised as the Shiragami while keeping an eye on everyone to prevent Makoto from reacting violently if he were to appear and ruin his plans. The attack on Misato Kawaguchi was because Makoto feared that she managed to deduce his true identity after hearing her ambiguous words.

The crime one year previously that Shinichi had solved and was hated for was explained in full: he wasn't wrong in his deduction, but he did lie about the motive. The mayor did kill his wife and himself, not because he was terminally ill like Shinichi had told everyone, but because he discovered that the child he believed to be his son was actually the result of an affair his wife had. His illness did play a part, because when he was examined, he learned that his blood type was AB instead of O, which he had always believed and which was Daiki's blood type. According Mendel's law, a AB and O cannot be parents to a O. Shinichi and the police had chosen to keep it a secret. Makoto was told about this, but he was in such a state of shock at the time that he didn't hear a word of it. Makoto breaks down crying in despair that he changed his face over nothing.

===== Aftermath =====
The group is informed that Misato Kawaguchi's wound was not serious and she is expected to make a full recovery. Shinichi also explains that one year ago, Makoto was the one who saved Misato's daughter from getting lost in the forest as the Shiragami, a role he continued after the death of his biological father who started the tradition after the death of his sister. He also adds that Makoto is likely to have his punishment lessened once they explain the full situation to Misato.

After Makoto is arrested, Ran, Heiji, Shinichi, Kazuha, and Kogoro walk back toward the hotel. Before they can reach it, the prototype antidote for APTX 4869 starts to wear off, and Heiji helps Shinichi escape to the bathroom to change back. Haibara had been hiding there, and she gave Shinichi another antidote. Then, she says to return to Tokyo before he changes back if he wishes to keep his identity a secret.</spoiler>

The police are able to stop traffic by ordering a toll gate to refuse cars passage. Shinichi and Heiji reveal that the victim died while driving evidenced by his body temperature. They are able to narrow the list of suspects to three people by examining the time on their toll tickets and matching it with the victims. The three suspects reveal that the victim was a famous street racer who went under the name Gunpei who quit racing when he caused the death of a man named Akira during a race. The three each have a motive for the murder. Shinichi and Heiji notice that there are holes in the car window by the side of the driver's seat and realize how the murder is done.

==== Resolution ====
<spoiler>Shinichi and Heiji both reveal that the culprit is '''Riko Mizohashi''', Akira's girlfriend. They explain that Riko gave Gunpei sleeping pills forcing Gunpei to pull over and sleep in a rest stop. While asleep, Mizohashi drilled holes into Gunpei's window and set up a fishing line through the holes and looped it around Gunpei's neck. After Gunpei wakes up and begins to drive, Mizohashi drove up beside him and signaled to him that she has something to tell him. Gunpei lowers his window which causes the fishing line to tighten around his neck and causes his death. Mizohashi confesses and reveals Furuki challenged Akira a race but in the race there was a storm that it must not be a conditions of a race causing Akira's car swept by the slippery floor and fell in the depths of the valley where the race happened and died with his hands clinched to the steering wheel. Shinichi tells Mizohashi that Gunpei actually regrets his actions that he done when Akira's death in the past, meaning that Gunpei knows about Mizohashi's plan for murdering him all along. He ''willingly'' accepted his death so he can pay the actions he done in the past. After solving the murder, the antidote to the APTX 4869 begins to wear off and Shinichi begins to change back to Conan. He attempts to seclude himself for the transformation but Ran grabs onto his hand and refuses to let go.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
In Frankfurt, an [[Wikipedia: Europol|Europol]] agent is being chased by [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] and [[Gin]]. Although Kir tries to help her escape, Gin eventually murders the agent. Some time later, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], the [[Detective Boys]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] are invited to the resort at Hachijo-jima, owned by [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]]'s family. Conan later receives information from [[Subaru Okiya|Subaru]] about the Europol agent who was murdered and a new [[Black Organization]] agent known as [[Pinga]] is on the move.

}}

Having discovered [[Ninzaburo Shiratori|Shiratori]] and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]], Conan secretly went after them to an [[Wikipedia: Interpol|Interpol]] underwater facility known as the Pacific Buoy. The facility hosts a new state-of-the-art system that allows them to connect to all the surveillance cameras in Japan, Europe, and eventually all over the world. Headed by Yosuke Makino, four other engineers (Ed from India, Grace from France, Leonhardt from Germany, and Naomi Argento from United States) also work in the facility. Another function of the system is the "All-Age Recognition" system, which uses facial recognition and [[Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence|AI]] reconstruction of a person’s facial structure to identify individuals whose age may have differed from the source material.

At the same time [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and [[Vermouth]] have secretly infiltrated the Pacific Buoy and arranged for the kidnapping of Naomi Argento, holding her captive in a submarine. They along with [[Vodka]] and Kir discover from Naomi's flash drive that was hidden in her necklace that the All-Age Recognition system had apparently identified [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] as [[Shiho Miyano]].

}}

That same night, [[Chianti]], Vodka, and Pinga kidnap Haibara from Sonoko's resort. Conan and Agasa try to chase after them, but unfortunately witness Vodka and Pinga driving their vehicle with Haibara into the sea to board their submarine underwater. The incident was reported to Kuroda, and Conan asked to use the Buoy's surveillance system to check the security cameras on the route of the car chase and the presence of the submarine, but they discovered that no submarine or vehicles were caught on the camera, seemingly indicating that the system had been tampered with.

However, Leonhardt had figured out who the person responsible for tampering with the surveillance footage was and tried to confront the culprit, but was drugged and was seen on the cctv camera committing suicide via poisoning in the Buoy's Cafe. The confession letter apparently written by Leonhardt also mentioned that he was responsible for the [[Wikipedia: Backdoor (computing)|Backdoor]] in the Buoy's system.

}}

Meanwhile, Vodka tried to force Naomi to tell them how to use the All-Age Recognition program, and when she refused to do so, he arranged for her father, a member of the European Parliament that proposed the use of the surveillance system, to be killed.

}}

Later on, Vermouth informed Gin that after running the All-Age Recognition system once again, she discovered that the system is able to pick up the image of other people with similar faces, but not necessarily the same person, indicating that the system is flawed. Frustrated by this development and following orders from [[Kanenori Wakita|Rum]], Gin decided to use the submarine to destroy the Buoy. However, when he tried to confront Haibara and Naomi, he discovered that the two had escaped from the submarine using the clues provided by Kir.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan went back to the Buoy and revealed through Kogoro that the person who murdered Leonhardt is '''Grace'''. Grace murdered Leonhardt as he had examined the access log and discovered that Grace was the only person who accessed the camera footage. Grace is then revealed to be '''Pinga''', who used the [[Wikipedia: Deepfake|Deepfake]] method to fake Leonhardt’s suicide footage and tried to escape from the Buoy. With the submarine set to attack the Buoy, Conan tries to light the position of the submarine from underwater and arranged for [[Shuichi Akai|Akai]] to launch a rocket that severely damaged the submarine, forcing the Black Organization to flee from the submarine. Pinga dies from the blast when the submarine exploded as Gin had intentionally left him there to die. Conan later loses consciousness underwater, only to be rescued by Haibara who went after him and took him to the surface.

During the mid-credits scene, the Detective Boys reunite with Conan and Haibara. [[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] is seen visiting Nina's grave with Hans. It is revealed on the news that Naomi's father had survived the attempted murder by the black organization.

In the post credit scene, the Pacific Buoy project is reported to have been moved to another country. Naomi realizes that Haibara is in fact Shiho Miyano, a friend who shielded her from being bullied when they studied in the United States. Furuya told Conan that the flaw in the system is revealed to have been staged by Vermouth, who disguised herself as Sherry and appeared in security camera footages around [[Wikipedia: Shibuya|Shibuya]], [[Wikipedia: Okinawa (city)|Okinawa]], and [[Wikipedia: Manila|Manila]], to hide the fact that Haibara is Shiho Miyano. An elderly woman whom Haibara earlier in the movie had offered her ticket to purchase a [[Fusae Brand|Fusae Campbell-branded ginkgo leaf pin]] is revealed to be Vermouth, who thinks to herself that [[Conan Edogawa|Silver Bullet]] should figure out the [[Renya Karasuma|reason she helped fabricate the flaw in the system]] himself.</spoiler>

The soundtrack is directed by [[Yugo Kanno]], who took the role from [[Katsuo Ono]] in the previous movie.

The ending theme is titled ''[[Utsukushī Hire]]'', song by [[Spitz]].

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
In Frankfurt, an [[Wikipedia: Europol|Europol]] agent is being chased by [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] and [[Gin]]. Although Kir tries to help her escape, Gin eventually murders the agent. Some time later, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], the [[Detective Boys]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] are invited to the resort at Hachijo-jima, owned by [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]]'s family. Conan later receives information from [[Subaru Okiya|Subaru]] about the Europol agent who was murdered and a new [[Black Organization]] agent known as [[Pinga]] is on the move.

}}

Having discovered [[Ninzaburo Shiratori|Shiratori]] and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]], Conan secretly went after them to an [[Wikipedia: Interpol|Interpol]] underwater facility known as the Pacific Buoy. The facility hosts a new state-of-the-art system that allows them to connect to all the surveillance cameras in Japan, Europe, and eventually all over the world. Headed by Yosuke Makino, four other engineers (Ed from India, Grace from France, Leonhardt from Germany, and Naomi Argento from United States) also work in the facility. Another function of the system is the "All-Age Recognition" system, which uses facial recognition and [[Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence|AI]] reconstruction of a person’s facial structure to identify individuals whose age may have differed from the source material.

At the same time [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and [[Vermouth]] have secretly infiltrated the Pacific Buoy and arranged for the kidnapping of Naomi Argento, holding her captive in a submarine. They along with [[Vodka]] and Kir discover from Naomi's flash drive that was hidden in her necklace that the All-Age Recognition system had apparently identified [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] as [[Shiho Miyano]].

}}

That same night, [[Chianti]], Vodka, and Pinga kidnap Haibara from Sonoko's resort. Conan and Agasa try to chase after them, but unfortunately witness Vodka and Pinga driving their vehicle with Haibara into the sea to board their submarine underwater. The incident was reported to Kuroda, and Conan asked to use the Buoy's surveillance system to check the security cameras on the route of the car chase and the presence of the submarine, but they discovered that no submarine or vehicles were caught on the camera, seemingly indicating that the system had been tampered with.

However, Leonhardt had figured out who the person responsible for tampering with the surveillance footage was and tried to confront the culprit, but was drugged and was seen on the cctv camera committing suicide via poisoning in the Buoy's Cafe. The confession letter apparently written by Leonhardt also mentioned that he was responsible for the [[Wikipedia: Backdoor (computing)|Backdoor]] in the Buoy's system.

| description = Conan and the others witnessed Leonhardt apparently committing suicide by taking a poison capsule.

Meanwhile, Vodka tried to force Naomi to tell them how to use the All-Age Recognition program, and when she refused to do so, he arranged for her father, a member of the European Parliament that proposed the use of the surveillance system, to be killed.

}}

Later on, Vermouth informed Gin that after running the All-Age Recognition system once again, she discovered that the system is able to pick up the image of other people with similar faces, but not necessarily the same person, indicating that the system is flawed. Frustrated by this development and following orders from [[Kanenori Wakita|Rum]], Gin decided to use the submarine to destroy the Buoy. However, when he tried to confront Haibara and Naomi, he discovered that the two had escaped from the submarine using the clues provided by Kir.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan went back to the Buoy and revealed via Kogoro that the person who murdered Leonhardt is '''Grace'''. Grace murdered Leonhardt as he has examined the access log and discovered that Grace is the only person accessing the camera footage. Grace is then revealed to be '''Pinga''', who used [[Wikipedia: Deepfake|Deepfake]] to fake Leonhardt suicide footage and tried to escape from the Buoy. With the submarine setting to attack the Buoy, Conan tries to light the position of the submarine from underwater and arranged for [[Shuichi Akai|Akai]] to shoot the rocket that severely damages the submarine, forcing the Black Organization to flee from the submarine. Pinga dies from the blast when the submarine explodes. Conan later loses consciousness underwater, only to be rescued by Haibara who went after him and took him to the surface.

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
In Frankfurt, an [[Wikipedia: Europol|Europol]] agent is being chased by [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] and [[Gin]]. Although Kir tries to help her escape, Gin eventually murders the agent. Some time later, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], the [[Detective Boys]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] are invited to the resort at Hachijo-jima, owned by [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]]'s family. Conan later receives information from [[Subaru Okiya|Subaru]] about the Europol agent who was murdered and a new [[Black Organization]] agent known as [[Pinga]] is on the move.

}}

Having discovered [[Ninzaburo Shiratori|Shiratori]] and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]], Conan secretly went after them to an [[Wikipedia: Interpol|Interpol]] underwater facility known as the Pacific Buoy. The facility hosts a new state-of-the-art system that allows them to connect to all the surveillance cameras in Japan, Europe, and eventually all over the world. Headed by Yosuke Makino, four other engineers (Ed from India, Grace from France, Leonhardt from Germany, and Naomi Argento from United States) also work in the facility. Another function of the system is the "All-Age Recognition" system, which uses facial recognition and [[Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence|AI]] reconstruction of a person’s facial structure to identify individuals whose age may have differed from the source material.

At the same time [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and [[Vermouth]] have secretly infiltrated the Pacific Buoy and arranged for the kidnapping of Naomi Argento, holding her captive in a submarine. They along with [[Vodka]] and Kir discover from Naomi's flash drive that was hidden in her necklace that the All-Age Recognition system had apparently identified [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] as [[Shiho Miyano]].

}}

The same night, [[Chianti]], Vodka, and Pinga kidnap Haibara from Sonoko's resort. Conan and Agasa try to chase after them, but unfortunately witness Vodka and Pinga driving their vehicle with Haibara into the sea to board their submarine underwater. The incident was reported to Kuroda, and Conan asked to use the Buoy's surveillance system to check the security cameras on the route of the car chase and the presence of the submarine, but they discovered that no submarine or vehicles were caught on the camera, seemingly indicating that the system had been tampered with.

However, Leonhardt had figured out who the person responsible for tampering with the surveillance footage was and tried to confront the culprit, but was drugged and was seen on the cctv camera committing suicide via poisoning in the Buoy's Cafe. The confession letter apparently written by Leonhardt also mentioned that he is responsible for the [[Wikipedia: Backdoor (computing)|Backdoor]] in the Buoy's system.

Meanwhile, Vodka tried to force Naomi to tell them how to use the All-Age Recognition program, and when she refused to do so, he arranged for her father, a member of the European Parliament that proposed the use of the surveillance system, to be killed.

}}

Later on, Vermouth informed Gin that after running the All-Age Recognition system once again, she discovered that the system is able to pick up the image of other people with similar faces, but not necessarily the same person, indicating that the system is flawed. Frustrated by this development and following orders from [[Kanenori Wakita|Rum]], Gin decided to use the submarine to destroy the Buoy. However, when he tried to confront Haibara and Naomi, he discovered that the two had escaped from the submarine using the clues provided by Kir.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan went back to the Buoy and revealed via Kogoro that the person who murdered Leonhardt is '''Grace'''. Grace murdered Leonhardt as he has examined the access log and discovered that Grace is the only person accessing the camera footage. Grace is then revealed to be '''Pinga''', who used [[Wikipedia: Deepfake|Deepfake]] to fake Leonhardt suicide footage and tried to escape from the Buoy. With the submarine setting to attack the Buoy, Conan tries to light the position of the submarine from underwater and arranged for [[Shuichi Akai|Akai]] to shoot the rocket that severely damages the submarine, forcing the Black Organization to flee from the submarine. Pinga dies from the blast when the submarine explodes. Conan later loses consciousness underwater, only to be rescued by Haibara who went after him and took him to the surface.

During the mid-credits scene, the Detective Boys reunite with Conan and Haibara. [[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] is seen visiting Nina's grave with Hans. It is revealed via news that Naomi's father survives the murder.

In the post credit scene, Pacific Buoy project is reported to be moved to another country. Naomi realizes that Haibara is in fact Shiho Miyano, a friend who shielded her from being bullied when they studied in the United States. Furuya told Conan that the flaw in the system is revealed to have been staged by Vermouth, who disguised herself as Sherry and appeared in security camera footages around [[Wikipedia: Shibuya|Shibuya]], [[Wikipedia: Okinawa (city)|Okinawa]], and [[Wikipedia: Manila|Manila]], to disprove the fact that Haibara is Shiho Miyano. An elderly woman whom Haibara earlier offered ticket to purchase [[Fusae Brand|Fusae Campbell-branded ginkgo leaf pin]] is revealed to be Vermouth, who thinks that [[Conan Edogawa|Silver Bullet]] must figure the [[Renya Karasuma|reason she helped stage the flaw in the system]] himself.</spoiler>

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
In Frankfurt, an [[Wikipedia: Europol|Europol]] agent is being chased by [[Hidemi Hondou|Kir]] and [[Gin]]. Although Kir tries to help her escape, Gin eventually murders the agent. Some time later, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], the [[Detective Boys]], [[Hiroshi Agasa|Agasa]], and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] are invited to the resort at Hachijo-jima, owned by [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]]'s family. Conan later receives information from [[Subaru Okiya|Subaru]] about the Europol agent who was murdered and a new [[Black Organization]] agent known as [[Pinga]] is on the move.

Having discovered [[Ninzaburo Shiratori|Shiratori]] and [[Hyoue Kuroda|Kuroda]], Conan secretly went after them to an [[Wikipedia: Interpol|Interpol]] underwater facility known as the Pacific Buoy. The facility hosts a new state-of-the-art system that allows them to connect to all the surveillance cameras in Japan, Europe, and eventually all over the world. Headed by Yosuke Makino, four other engineers (Ed from India, Grace from France, Leonhardt from Germany, and Naomi Argento from United States) also work in the facility. Another function of the system is the "All-Age Recognition" system, which uses facial recognition and [[Wikipedia: Artificial intelligence|AI]] reconstruction of a person’s facial structure to identify individuals whose age may have differed from the source material.

At the same time[[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] and [[Vermouth]] have secretly infiltrated the Pacific Buoy and arranged for the kidnapping of Naomi Argento, holding her captive in a submarine. They along with [[Vodka]] and Kir discover from Naomi's flash drive that was hidden in her necklace that the All-Age Recognition system had apparently identified [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] as [[Shiho Miyano]].

}}

The same night, [[Chianti]], Vodka, and Pinga kidnap Haibara from Sonoko's resort. Conan and Agasa try to chase after them, but unfortunately witness Vodka and Pinga driving their vehicle with Haibara into the sea to board their submarine underwater. The incident was reported to Kuroda, and Conan asked to use the Buoy's surveillance system to check the security cameras on the route of the car chase and the presence of the submarine, but they discovered that no submarine or vehicles were caught on the camera, seemingly indicating that the system had been tampered with.

However, Leonhardt had figured out who the person responsible for tampering with the surveillance footage was and tried to confront the culprit, but was drugged and was seen on the cctv camera committing suicide via poisoning in the Buoy's Cafe. The confession letter apparently written by Leonhardt also mentioned that he is responsible for the [[Wikipedia: Backdoor (computing)|Backdoor]] in the Buoy's system.

Meanwhile, Vodka tried to force Naomi to tell them how to use the All-Age Recognition program, and when she refused to do so, he arranged for her father, a member of the European Parliament that proposed the use of the surveillance system, to be killed.

Later on, Vermouth informed Gin that after running the All-Age Recognition system once again, she discovered that the system is able to pick up the image of other people with similar faces, but not necessarily the same person, indicating that the system is flawed. Frustrated by this development and following orders from [[Kanenori Wakita|Rum]], Gin decided to use the submarine to destroy the Buoy. However, when he tried to confront Haibara and Naomi, he discovered that the two had escaped from the submarine using the clues provided by Kir.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Conan went back to the Buoy and revealed via Kogoro that the person who murdered Leonhardt is '''Grace'''. Grace murdered Leonhardt as he has examined the access log and discovered that Grace is the only person accessing the camera footage. Grace is then revealed to be '''Pinga''', who used [[Wikipedia: Deepfake|Deepfake]] to fake Leonhardt suicide footage and tried to escape from the Buoy. With the submarine setting to attack the Buoy, Conan tries to light the position of the submarine from underwater and arranged for [[Shuichi Akai|Akai]] to shoot the rocket that severely damages the submarine, forcing the Black Organization to flee from the submarine. Pinga dies from the blast when the submarine explodes. Conan later loses consciousness underwater, only to be rescued by Haibara who went after him and took him to the surface.

During the mid-credits scene, the Detective Boys reunite with Conan and Haibara. [[Jodie Starling|Jodie]] is seen visiting Nina's grave with Hans. It is revealed via news that Naomi's father survives the murder.

In the post credit scene, Pacific Buoy project is reported to be moved to another country. Naomi realizes that Haibara is in fact Shiho Miyano, a friend who shielded her from being bullied when they studied in the United States. Furuya told Conan that the flaw in the system is revealed to have been staged by Vermouth, who disguised herself as Sherry and appeared in security camera footages around [[Wikipedia: Shibuya|Shibuya]], [[Wikipedia: Okinawa (city)|Okinawa]], and [[Wikipedia: Manila|Manila]], to disprove the fact that Haibara is Shiho Miyano. An elderly woman whom Haibara earlier offered ticket to purchase [[Fusae Brand|Fusae Campbell-branded ginkgo leaf pin]] is revealed to be Vermouth, who thinks that [[Conan Edogawa|Silver Bullet]] must figure the [[Renya Karasuma|reason she helped stage the flaw in the system]] himself.</spoiler>

In Greek Mythology, [[Wikipedia: Icarus|Icarus]], who received wings, forgot his [[Wikipedia: Daedalus|father]]'s warning that he shouldn't fly too high, and flew higher and higher. He believed he could fly to the sun. But Icarus' wings couldn't bear the heat when he got too close to the sun. After his wings burned, Icarus fell from the sky right to the ground.

==== Part 2 ====
After investigating in the crime scene, Conan understands that Bizen's death wasn't a suicide, but a murder. He collects pieces of evidence, gets Kogoro asleep, and solves the case.

<spoiler>The culprit is '''Mitsuyuki Arimori'''. He murdered Chizuru early in the morning, first he knocked her out with a stungun and hid the corpse in the back of his van then he Strangled her with a rope when the group headed to the valley. Later, in the afternoon he used a hang-glider to get back to the hotel before the others and hung her corpse her room.

The proof is a special type of pollen unique to a [[Wikipedia: Aporia hippia|butterfly]] from the valley that was on Chizuru's clothes that had been unknowingly transferred from Arimori's shoulder when he was carrying the corpse.

He reveals that the actress was his brother's lover, she had made him spend large amounts of money repeatedly and although his brother truly loved her she did not. Eventually she decided to break up with him to be with a much richer man, broken hearted he flew on his hang glider, however he miscalculated the trajectory and ended up plummeting to his death. He reveals that he tried to ask the actress to say a few words on his brother's grave but she refused and he decided to kill her.

=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
Sonoko, Ran, and Conan go to Izu, Shizuoka Prefecture, because of Sonoko's schemes to get a man. At the beach, Sonoko takes a picture of Ran fixing her bathing suit and threatens to send the picture to Shinichi. Sonoko is upset about her lack of love life. However, a college student approaches the girls and asks Sonoko to lunch. He appears to be romantically interested and asks Sonoko to dinner as well. They agree to meet at their lodgings later that day. The college student tells the group a story about a brunette that was murdered a year ago and now haunts the restaurant he wants to dine at. Ran is frighten by the story and forbids Sonoko in using the camera to capture a ghost in it. Sonoko suggest that maybe they could show such a picture to Shinichi and see if he can figure something out, since she is going to show the other picture anyway. The group then finds out that another brunette was murdered in the woods recently in the same manner as the brunette from a year ago.

The group goes to the crime scene and meet Sango Yokomizo who cautions them to stay safe. Sonoko, Ran, and Conan are staying at a cheap inn because Sonoko doesn't want to scare men away by staying at an expensive luxury hotel. In the evening, the three of them wait for the college student to pick them up in his car. Sonoko realizes that she forgot something in her room and goes back up to get it. Here she discovers a suspicious figure searching her bags. The figure attacks her and is about to stab her with a knife when Ran and Conan, worried about the time Sonoko is taking, come to find her.

}}

Sonoko is saved and the figure escapes through the window. The stoic, and somewhat unfriendly, high school student Makoto Kyogoku that is working at the inn moves the group to another room. Ran thinks she has seen this person somewhere before but cannot remember where. The college student shows up muddy and wet and Conan suspects him of attacking Sonoko. Sonoko says she bit the attacker's bicep in her struggle and Conan makes the college student take off his shirt. However, the college student does not have a bite mark on his arm. Makoto has a bandaged bicep and falls under suspicion but Sonoko says he wasn't the attacker since the attacker was hairy. The college student, Sonoko, Ran, and Conan decide to have dinner at the inn because the college student says his car broke down. Conan speculates that Sonoko's attacker was looking for the photographs she was taking during the trip, but cannot figure out why. Conan does not think there are any incriminating photos after Sonoko shows them, after taking out the one of Ran. Perhaps the murderer overheard Sonoko talking about the photographs and misunderstood. This case is still full of mysteries and Conan cannot figure out why Sonoko was attacked and why the killer would think that she took a picture, that needs to get rid of.

Conan believes the culprit was the serial killer who attacked Sonoko last night.

While they walk to the police station, Sonoko says that she does have one picture left, which is the one she wants to show Shinichi. Conan realizes that culprit still thinks that Sonoko has an incriminating picture and has sent the car over the cliff to destroy it along with the luggage. But he's still confused as to why the culprit thinks such a picture exist.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The suspicious man, Terabayashi, is revealed to be a police detective from Chiba and he is not the serial murderer from the past. The actual murderer from one year ago and who tried to kill Sonoko is '''Tadahiko Michiwaki'''. Terabayashi had suspected him of murdering four other women from his district. Michiwaki is the one who attacked Sonoko last night and escaped before Ran and Conan came into Sonoko's room. Sonoko didn't bite her attacker in the arm, but in the leg. She had made the mistake because she was attacked in the dark. Michiwaki also made his own car move down towards the cliff by putting the hand brake down while talking to her. In order to prevent the car from moving, he put ice under the wheel. Which later melted due to the heat and caused the car to move. Anyone would assume that the water puddle left behind came from the air conditioner. He left the lock picking tool on the ground to make it look like someone had broken into his car.

| description = Before attacking Sonoko and killing two women in Shizuoka, Michiwaki had already killed two women in Chiba prefecture, prompting Terabayashi to search for him.
}}

The motive as to why Michiwaki murdered many brown-haired woman is because he was rejected by his brown-haired girlfriend and Sonoko and the previous victims resembled the woman who rejected him. Another reason why he is targeting Sonoko was that when he was killing his latest victim, a train passed by behind him and he saw the lights from it. He mistook it as a flash from a camera and when he later saw Sonoko with a camera not far from the crime scene, he thought that she took a picture of him with the victim and was going to show it to Shinichi, when she talked about the picture with Ran. This was further strengthened by the fact that Sonoko's other pictures showed couples being intimate. It made him think that Sonoko took a picture in the belief that it was another intimate moment. Sonoko never told Michiwaki what the picture really showed, because Ran always interrupted or stopped her from telling anyone. So he approached the group with the intention to find the picture and destroy it. Conan, Ran and Terabayashi arrived at the scene, but it was almost too late, until Makoto saves Sonoko from being stabbed. He incapacitated Michiwaki easily using his karate moves.

Later, Makoto is revealed to be the captain of Haido High's karate team, which explains why Ran felt that she had met him before. He was worried for Sonoko, because he had seen Michiwaki flirting with two other girls before her. He explains that he once saw Sonoko during a karate competition that both he and Ran took part in, cheering for Ran in such a spirited way that he felt immediately drawn to her.

Later, it is revealed that Sonoko and Makoto had started dating but Makoto had to leave for another karate tournament. Sonoko sad, but not disheartened decided to flirt with more men, much to Ran and Conan’s chagrin.</spoiler>

Ran is frighten by the story and forbids Sonoko in using the camera to capture a ghost in it. Sonoko suggest that maybe they could show such a picture to Shinichi and see if he can figure something out, since she is going to show the other picture anyway. The group then finds out that another brunette was murdered in the woods recently in the same manner as the brunette from a year ago.

The group goes to the crime scene and meet Sango Yokomizo who cautions them to stay safe. Sonoko, Ran, and Conan are staying at a cheap inn because Sonoko doesn't want to scare men away by staying at an expensive luxury hotel. In the evening, the three of them wait for the college student to pick them up in his car. Sonoko realizes that she forgot something in her room and goes back up to get it. Here she discovers a suspicious figure searching her bags. The figure attacks her and is about to stab her with a knife when Ran and Conan, worried about the time Sonoko is taking, come to find her.

}}

Sonoko is saved and the figure escapes through the window. The stoic, and somewhat unfriendly, high school student Makoto Kyogoku that is working at the inn moves the group to another room. Ran thinks she has seen this person somewhere before but cannot remember where. The college student shows up muddy and wet and Conan suspects him of attacking Sonoko. Sonoko says she bit the attacker's bicep in her struggle and Conan makes the college student take off his shirt. However, the college student does not have a bite mark on his arm. Makoto has a bandaged bicep and falls under suspicion but Sonoko says he wasn't the attacker since the attacker was hairy. The college student, Sonoko, Ran, and Conan decide to have dinner at the inn because the college student says his car broke down. Conan speculates that Sonoko's attacker was looking for the photographs she was taking during the trip, but cannot figure out why. Conan does not think there are any incriminating photos after Sonoko shows them, after taking out the one of Ran. Perhaps the murderer overheard Sonoko talking about the photographs and misunderstood. This case is still full of mysteries and Conan cannot figure out why Sonoko was attacked and why the killer would think that she took a picture, that needs to get rid of.

Conan believes the culprit was the serial killer who attacked Sonoko last night.

While they walk to the police station, Sonoko says that she does have one picture left, which is the one she wants to show Shinichi. Conan realizes that culprit still thinks that Sonoko has an incriminating picture and has sent the car over the cliff to destroy it along with the luggage. But he's still confused as to why the culprit thinks such a picture exist.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The suspicious man, Terabayashi, is revealed to be a police detective from Chiba and he is not the serial murderer from the past. The actual murderer from one year ago and who tried to kill Sonoko is '''Tadahiko Michiwaki'''. Terabayashi had suspected him of murdering four other women from his district. Michiwaki is the one who attacked Sonoko last night and escaped before Ran and Conan came into Sonoko's room. Sonoko didn't bite her attacker in the arm, but in the leg. She had made the mistake because she was attacked in the dark. Michiwaki also made his own car move down towards the cliff by putting the hand brake down while talking to her. In order to prevent the car from moving, he put ice under the wheel. Which later melted due to the heat and caused the car to move. Anyone would assume that the water puddle left behind came from the air conditioner. He left the lock picking tool on the ground to make it look like someone had broken into his car.

}}

The motive as to why Michiwaki murdered many brown-haired woman is because he was rejected by his brown-haired girlfriend and Sonoko and the previous victims resembled the woman who rejected him. Another reason why he is targeting Sonoko was that when he was killing his latest victim, a train passed by behind him and he saw the lights from it. He mistook it as a flash from a camera and when he later saw Sonoko with a camera not far from the crime scene, he thought that she took a picture of him with the victim and was going to show it to Shinichi, when she talked about the picture with Ran. This was further strengthened by the fact that Sonoko's other pictures showed couples being intimate. It made him think that Sonoko took a picture in the belief that it was another intimate moment. Sonoko never told Michiwaki what the picture really showed, because Ran always interrupted or stopped her from telling anyone. So he approached the group with the intention to find the picture and destroy it. Conan, Ran and Terabayashi arrived at the scene, but it was almost too late, until Makoto saves Sonoko from being stabbed. He incapacitated Michiwaki easily using his karate moves.

Later, Makoto is revealed to be the captain of Haido High's karate team, which explains why Ran felt that she had met him before. He was worried for Sonoko, because he had seen Michiwaki flirting with two other girls before her. He explains that he once saw Sonoko during a karate competition that both he and Ran took part in, cheering for Ran in such a spirited way that he felt immediately drawn to her.

Later, it is revealed that Sonoko and Makoto had started dating but it Makoto had to leave for another karate tournament. Sonoko sad, but not disheartened decided to flirt with more men, much to Ran and Conan’s chagrin.</spoiler>

==== Part 2 ====
The clerk went to fix her contact lenses. Takagi comes in explaining that the Victim owed a large sum of money. Agasa comes by to pick up the children, but Ayumi, Haibara, and Conan were still inside with the girls going to the bathroom while Conan walked around. Conan comes to an conclusion while looking in the bathroom mirror after Haibara parted some words, he runs into the theater and finds a clue in the pile of cigarettes' where Haruta was sitting as well as a footprint. Conan goes to Agasa and explains what he has discovered, though it is never said to the viewer. When Conan goes to whisper to Agasa the kids come in saying how rude he is (how about how rude they are for eavesdropping?) Tagaki tells Megure about what Haruta's neighbors had to say, that he was in a bad mood because of his debts and that he was arguing with the bank. Its revealed that the theater hasn't been sold yet. As the suspects keep saying that it was a suicide, the lights go dark and Agasa appears in the window, having repeated the 'trick the murderer has conspired today'.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The culprit is '''Minoru Furuhashi'''. He used the projector to create his alibi. First, he asked Yuriko to buy tea for him so she wouldn’t be there at the time of the murder. Then, he adjusted the air conditioner so that the corpse would be swinging as if he had just died.

After that, he began the mirror illusion trick. He used mirrors so that the light coming from the left window, which was where he hung the victim, would instead be projected from the right window. In this way, he could hang the corpse and play the movie from the other window. Moreover, he wouldn't need to cut the film and be in the projection room while the shadow appeared. After setting that mirror illusion, he went down to the theater, killed Seiji, and hung him in front of the left window while the movie was playing from the other window. Then, he went back to the projection room and removed the mirrors so that the light will flash through the left window and since the corpse is blocking the window, a shadow of it will be casted on the theater screen.

That way, even when the shadow appeared, he and Yuriko would be in the same room together and would sustain his alibi. The evidence is in Toshiyuki‘s camera. Toshiyuki captured the scene in which the shadow appeared. From there, they realized that the focus is wrong. That's because when Minoru moved the mirror back to the original window, the reflections will cause the scene to blur. All theater's projection machines fit the screen perfectly. Since they are supposed to fit the screen, it takes a lot of time for him to fix the focus and make it perfect in both ways, but no matter how hard he tried, there was no way for it to happen. He wasn't able to avoid the shaky part either. Yuriko went to the bathroom because there wasn’t any mirror in the projection room.

Minoru confessed to the crime. He killed Seiji because he was causing trouble in the theater to the point that the number of customers was decreasing. He is soon arrested and asks Agasa to show the final film for the kids. The Detective Boys watched the last part of the movie. Akio, the owner, decides not to sell the theater.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
Several years ago, the Fox known as the best assassin in the country had killed a president of a major company. However this assassination took place while his target was driving as a result, his car swerved into the path of a school bus carrying elementary school children. This caused a collision, that claimed the life of the young 5 year old Chisato Ushio, due to this unintended casualty The Fox went into hiding.

In the present, Kogoro is hired to capture the Fox, the client being Ushio Bunzo, a millionaire who once hired the Fox to kill him since he was supposedly about to die. But he found out from his doctor that he would live to see another day, as a result he wanted to back off the deal but he had no way of contacting the Fox, instead he wants to have the Fox captured.

Bunzo asks Kogoro to follow him alongside Ran and Conan in a hiking trip that the Fox is supposed to attend as well. Kogoro is about to decline when suddenly Conan notices a glint that is coming a sniper (apparently The Fox) who is aiming at them from a nearby rooftop. Conan manages to push him out of the way and save him, after firing wildly into the office the shooter leaves. Kogoro is relieved but at the same time distressed about his windows, Bunzo offers to pay him for damages as long as he helps him and he accepts.

After arriving at the entrance of the hiking trail, Kogoro along with Conan and Ran act like they are meeting Bunzo for the first time while meeting the others hikers who are: Wataru Takanashi, Shingo Nose, Kyoko Saegusa, Akira Kawabe and their guide Kenichi Hirai. They keep a close eye on these people as they believe one of them is the infamous Fox.

They then follow their guide Hirai through the hiking trail, along the way Bunzo nearly falls down a deep ravine after almost tripping off a cliff. Bunzo believes that Hirai tried to kill him but quickly calms down after Kogoro talks to him. Afterwards they decide to take a break and rest before they start to hike again, while Hirai leaves to check out their current location.

Ran and Conan discuss who The Fox could be as there are many suspicious individuals among them. Suddenly they hear a scream and check to see where it came from, they find Wataru Takanashi who directs them towards Hirai's body who apparently fell off the cliff. When Kogoro accuses Takanashi of murdering Hirai he suddenly panics and asks to be let go, leaving the others stunned and confused.

Conan and Kogoro climb down and examine Hirai's body where they find that he landed on the back of his head on a rock. However Conan notices that Hirai has a gash on his cheek and a knife nearby with some blood on it. Meaning someone threw this knife at him and although Hirai managed to barely dodge it while sustaining a cut on his face, he lost his balance and fell to his death. Conan and Kogoro both wonder if the killer who they believe to be The Fox is among them.

Afterwards they make it to a cabin and meet the caretaker there, whose name is Juukichi Iwata an elderly man that startles them. He invites them in and prepares food for them, and learns from them that one of their members was killed and he comments that it was most likely no accident. Later the group discuss who the murderer could be and Takanashi is labeled the criminal. He then suddenly pulls out his large hunting knife and throws it near one of the members of the group then re-holsters it.

During this exchange Bunzo accidentally reveals Kogoro real name and identity to the other members. One of them recognizes Kogoro as the famous Sleeping Kogoro which startles the couple Akira and Kyoko, who Conan deems suspicious.

While they are sleeping an unknown person approaches Kogoro and plunges their knife into the pillow which startles Kogoro enough to wake him up. Bunzo, Kogoro, and Conan give chase after believing that Takanashi is the culprit. They track him down after hearing him screaming, and learn that he is actually Claustrophobic explaining his strange demeanor and attitude. While traveling back to the cabin Takanashi explains why he became claustrophobic in the first place.

When they are near the cabin, they suddenly hear Ran screaming, and fearing the worst rush towards the cabin.

==== Part 2 ====
The others rush to the cabin and are relieved to see Ran unharmed, she apologizes saying that there is trouble and directs them toward Kyoko Saegusa who is dead with a knife in her back. Akira Kawabe is mourning her death apologizing for not being able to protect her. Shingo Nose asks what is going on, as it is obvious that Kogoro knows more then he’s letting on.

Kogoro decides to tell them the truth, he reveals that he came to the hiking trip to hunt the infamous assassin The Fox. Although Bunzo chastises Kogoro for revealing the truth, he justifies this saying that two of their members are dead enough is enough. However as they are talking Shingo reveals himself to be right handed just like The Fox. Kogoro believes and deduces that Shingo is The Fox but he laughs this off saying that he is wrong.

But Kogoro doesn't believe him stating that he is the only one capable and he is also right handed just like The Fox. Bunzo believing this grabs Shingo stating that he has business with him. Conan investigates and figures out that the one who stabbed Kyoko was her lover Akira Kawabe, as they were hugging he looped one of his arms around her back and stabbed her with a knife. Ran demonstrates this together with Conan.

Conan also finds Kyoko's backpack filled with bundles of cash, with some of them stained with blood. Just then Takanashi tells them that two of their members are missing: the caretaker Junnichi and Akira. A landslide occurs and they hear screaming nearby, so Conan, Ran, and Kogoro go to check it out. They find Akira and help him to safety, he tells them that he took the caretaker hostage but he ran off as soon as the landslide occurred.

Conan and the others return back to the cabin and learn that Bunzo left to help as well but hasn't returned. Kogoro is confident believing they have captured The Fox who he believes is Akira Kawabe, however he denies this saying that he hasn’t killed anyone. But Conan looks through Akira's bag and finds more bundles of cash with blood on them, Kogoro tries to get Akira to tell them where that bloody money came from but he remains silent.

Just then Takanashi tells them that he has managed to fix the radio and as a result the following news report airs: "The police are still searching for the suspects who have killed and robbed a rich man in his home, the suspects are said to be a man and woman in hiking clothes". As they listen Kogoro notices Akira panicking and puts two and two together realizing that Akira and Kyoko are the robbery-murderers on the run.

Akira seeing that he has been cornered admits being one of two suspects the police are looking for in the robbery-murder case. He also admits to killing Kyoko after learning that Kogoro was a famous detective and believing he was looking for them. Kyoko had wanted them to turn themselves in having enough of being a fugitive, however Akira refused saying they still had a chance to escape.

But Kyoko still insisted on turning themselves in, Akira pretending to agree hugged Kyoko and then stabbed her in the back just the way Conan had deduced. Akira said it was Kogoro's fault for Kyoko having to die, because he had hid the true reason for him being there scaring them unnecessarily. The group then sees that the caretaker has a phone and fax with him and it uses a landline meaning they have a chance of calling for help.

But when Kogoro tries to use the phone, he hears no dial tone. Conan wondering why suddenly sees the landline cable has been severed via a knife. Conan then deduces that the caretaker Iwata is in fact The Fox, the assassin they came for. Conan believes that the fake caretaker also killed their guide because he could've figured out that he was a fake, as he and the real caretaker have been acquaintances for quite some time.

Conan also realizes that Bunzo is after The Fox because of his own vendetta and goes to find him.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The Fox was responsible for Hirai's death and the one who was responsible for Saegusa's death was '''Akira Kawabe'''. However, the whole trip was a gambit from Bunzo, who wanted to ''kill the Fox with his own hands''. He never was ill or willing to die: it was all feigned to get close to the Fox and murder him in retaliation for having accidentally caused the death of his beloved daughter Chisato, a girl around Conan's (physical) age. Two years ago, during one of his assassinations, his target's car crashed into a school bus and she was the only fatal victim.

The Fox was disguised as '''Juukichi Iwata''', the cottage caretaker, and Hirai was killed because he regularly traversed and knew the real Iwata, so he was a potential spanner in the Fox's plans. At the same time, Saegusa's death was a completely unrelated incident; Kawabe killed her to silence her after they both committed a robbery-murder.

Bunzo figured out that Iwata was The Fox, after witnessing Iwata pushing Akira down the cliff during the landslide and running off despite the fact that he was a old man. This made Bunzo realize who his adversary was and that he had to kill him. Bunzo also reveals that the sniper who fired into Kogoro's office was in fact a friend of his who owed him a favor, he had asked his friend to shoot into the office to scare Kogoro into helping him.

Bunzo manages to confront "Iwata" aka the Fox, furiously calling him out for Chisato's death. Conan stops Bunzo by showing him the picture of Chisato that he kept in his wallet and begging him to not taint his hands, seeing this and remembering his daughter he decides to drop the gun. Which is then picked up by The Fox who tries to kill them, but Conan kicks the gun out of his hands via his super kick shoes.

The Fox tries to flee but is intercepted by Kogoro who judo throws him, in the process The Fox is revealed to have been wearing a disguise and was actually a lot younger then he appeared to be.

The Fox, Bunzo, and Akira are arrested, but before leaving Bunzo thanks Conan for stopping him and leaves with a smile.</spoiler>

The {{nihongo|'''Turbo Engine Skateboard'''|ターボエンジン付スケボー|Tāboenjin-tsuki Sukebō}} is the seventh gadget created by [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] for [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]].

== Description ==
[[File:vlcsnap-2019-01-05-11h48m39s723.png|thumb|left|200px|Turbo Engine Skateboard's technical details.]]
Agasa created this super fast skateboard for Conan to help him chase down criminals. Unfortunately, without solar power the skateboard's engine will not work. Although it is commonly shown in the anime and movies, it has only appeared twice in the manga: its [[Volume 9#Trapped Ayumi Case|introductory case]] where Conan uses it to keep up with the car where Ayumi had been accidentally locked in a trunk, and briefly when Conan used it to rendezvous with Agasa and Haibara at a restaurant after they warned him about [[Volume 65#Dangerous Couple Case|two suspicious people]].

The skateboard's engine receives an upgrade in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]] enabling Conan to use stored solar energy in order to use the skateboard at nighttime. Once again, it is upgraded in [[Quarter of Silence]], allowing the Skateboard to be converted into a Turbo Engine Snowboard. With its upgrades, the skateboard can outspeed a car.

A new red-colored version was introduced in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] that could travel on water and had retractable wheels. The skateboard was destroyed however by [[Goemon Ishikawa]] slashing it in two with his Zantetsuken. Haibara later tells Conan that the original blue skateboard suits him better anyway.

== In the media ==
The Turbo Engine Skateboard is one of the most represented gadget on pictures, merchandise or advertisements promoting ''[[Detective Conan]]'', as seen on movie posters, DVD covers, wallpapers and more, even though it has appeared in fillers way more than in the manga.

== Usage ==
Sorted by appearances from a real time. The first appear on Mar 30, 1994 - Apr 20, 1994 (Manga) / April 15, 1996 (Anime) 
'''P.S.'''
(Manga in ¥1,000,000,000 Robbery case([[Volume 2]]) is animate on December 14, 1998 '''but''' Trapped Ayumi Case([[Volume 9]]) is animate on April 15, 1996)

The {{nihongo|'''Turbo Engine Skateboard'''|ターボエンジン付スケボー|Tāboenjin-tsuki Sukebō}} is the seventh gadget created by [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]] for [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]].

== Description ==
[[File:vlcsnap-2019-01-05-11h48m39s723.png|thumb|left|200px|Turbo Engine Skateboard's technical details.]]
Agasa created this super fast skateboard for Conan to help him chase down criminals. Unfortunately, without solar power the skateboard's engine will not work. Although it is commonly shown in the anime and movies, it has only appeared twice in the manga: its [[Volume 9#Trapped Ayumi Case|introductory case]] where Conan uses it to keep up with the car where Ayumi had been accidentally locked in a trunk, and briefly when Conan used it to rendezvous with Agasa and Haibara at a restaurant after they warned him about [[Volume 65#Dangerous Couple Case|two suspicious people]].

The skateboard's engine receives an upgrade in [[The Last Wizard of the Century]] enabling Conan to use stored solar energy in order to use the skateboard at nighttime. Once again, it is upgraded in [[Quarter of Silence]], allowing the Skateboard to be converted into a Turbo Engine Snowboard. With its upgrades, the skateboard can outspeed a car.

A new red-colored version was introduced in [[Lupin III vs. Detective Conan: The Movie]] that could travel on water and had retractable wheels. The skateboard was destroyed however by [[Goemon Ishikawa]] slashing it in two with his Zantetsuken. Haibara later tells Conan that the original blue skateboard suits him better anyway.

== In the media ==
The Turbo Engine Skateboard is one of the most represented gadget on pictures, merchandise or advertisements promoting ''[[Detective Conan]]'', as seen on movie posters, DVD covers, wallpapers and more, even though it has appeared in fillers way more than in the manga.

== Usage ==
Sorted by appearances from a real time. The first appear on Mar 30, 1994 - Apr 20, 1994 (Manga) / April 15, 1996 (Anime) 
'''P.S.'''
(Manga in ¥1,000,000,000 Robbery case([[Volume 2]]) is animate on December 14, 1998 '''but''' Trapped Ayumi Case([[Volume 9]]) is animate on April 15, 1996)

{{nihongo|'''Soshi Okita VI'''|六代目沖田総司|Rokudaime Okita Sōshi}} is a character in the manga ''[[Yaiba]]'', who also appears in the manga and anime ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
[[File:EP928-Yaiba.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Soshi reminisces Yaiba and Moroha.]]
Soshi Okita is a descendant in the sixth-generation of the historical [[Wikipedia: Okita Sōji|Okita Sōji]], the leader of the legendary 19th-century samurai police force [[Wikipedia: Shinsengumi|Shinsengumi]], and was persuaded by his family, especially his so far unseen grandfather, to follow the path of the sword in his life. In the course of this, he has to train kendo in the Okita's private dojo extensively every day, which, due to his innate talent, causes him to become the "most powerful samurai" soon, who is apparently unbeaten up until his appearances in the two series. This fate, however, isn't in his own interest at all, since he is bored of being a swordmaster when there's no one around who poses a challenge.

He has a habit of looking for a quiet place in the tall grass before a fight and dozing off there to gather his strength. [[Yaiba Kurogane|Yaiba]] accidentally stumbles across him sleeping in the grass. [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] also mentions that he passed the first to rounds to sleep in the tall grass behind the hall.

He currently attends Senshin High School<ref>It is named after his ancestor's police force, the ''Shinsen''-gumi, with the syllables switched like the "Teitan" in [[Teitan Elementary School|Teitan Elementary]] and Teitan High Schools did with "Tantei".</ref> in Kyoto, where he attends the same class as the wealthy [[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]]. He also owns an Omamori, a Japanese kind of lucky charm, from the Hachidai shrine, which, according to him, has been passed down for generations by the Okita family and, as he believes, helped him to never lose a fight. He keeps a photograph of [[Moroha Kurogane|Moroha]], Yaiba's younger sister, inside the charm, with whom he is secretly in love, which he cannot admit until he has beaten her brother.

== Personality ==
He very often has a carefree and playful, almost childish, attitude. After mastering a sword technique called "Yokoichi Monji" in seconds solely by observing Yaiba's failed use of it and in turn using it against him in near perfection, he is overjoyed that it actually worked and left Yaiba totally perplexed. During a murder case [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Heiji are investigating in, he unexpectedly puts on the disposed armor of the perpetrator, important police evidence, because he was curious and shortly afterwards gives his own deduction about the case, which consists of accusing a blind old man for the sole reason that the fictional samurai [[Wikipedia: Zatoichi|Zatoichi]] was blind, too. He afterwards asks the suspect in an excited manner if he can recite Zatoichi's catchphrase "Life is pain".

== Appearance ==
Apart from skin-tone and hairstyle, he looks exactly like [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]].

== Abilities ==
He is skilled at kendo. His ancestor was a great at kendo and he decided to continue his work. He practiced kendo and later decided to quit because he thought he practiced enough. He uses a technique called five-piece thrust and later, when Yaiba use an incomplete move against him, he was able to complete it. But Yaiba didn't give up, so he forfeited and promised to will practice more. He fought with Heiji and gave him a scar on his left ear, but every match has ended in default. He also looks like has deduction skill he was able to deduce about the man which was murdered, though he didn't do well in the kendo tournament of love and mystery case, making a terrible deduction and accusing the witness while trying to impress [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and beat Heiji.

== Plot overview ==
=== Yaiba ===
==== Nobunaga Oda Tournament (Manga: [[Yaiba Volume 24|246-251]] & [[Yaiba Volume 24|253]], Anime: TBD) ====
[[File:Yaiba Chapter 249 Yaiba vs Okita.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Yaiba vs. Soshi.]]
During the final arc, his name first appears on the contestant's bracket a couple of times as "S. Okita", participant "No. 0444".

After winning every previous round, Yaiba and his friends [[Sayaka Mine|Sayaka]] and [[Musashi Miyamoto|Musashi]], as well as his younger sister Moroha, trudge through some sort of bamboo forest on the artificial, skull-shaped island of Yoroi, on which the eponymous martial arts tournament is held. Yaiba literally stumbles over Soshi Okita, who's sleeping in the tall grass, which extremely upsets the former. Only then do both realize that they are in the semi-finals, and are the next mutual opponents.

It quickly becomes clear however that Yaiba is remarkably inferior to him, who's around his age, but way more experienced. With his precise and inescapable attacks, he is constantly hurting Yaiba more and more, while he doesn't land one single hit. Musashi thinks that he recognizes the movement of Shinsengumi leader Soji Okita in the boy's fighting style. He confirms Musashi's suspicion and shows the back of his uniform, which he inherited from his ancestor.

But there is something else: he actually only participates in this tournament because he made a bet with his grandfather. The latter wants to raise his grandson to be a modern samurai, but he has no interest in this at all, he doesn't want to live the life of a swordsman. He is even bored about the mere idea of traveling around and never finding anyone who could offer him a real challenge and it wouldn't gain him much money to boot, so he'd rather like to devote his life to another vocation. His grandfather made the offer that he partakes in this tournament and if he won, he was free to choose his own path in life, but should he lose, he must continue to follow the path of the sword.

At this point it looks like he is going to win his bet. He continues to beat poor Yaiba to a pulp with his "Five-pieces thrust" technique and another skill sending out energy waves from the ground, which brings Yaiba in grave danger. Meanwhile, he is increasingly becoming aware of the presence of mysterious phantom swords that seem to attack him. Just when Yaiba breaks down and Soshi walks past Yaiba's friends to the finale because he believes he has won, Yaiba stands up again and prepares another attack. Sorely shocked and deeply impressed by Yaiba's perseverance and his will to win this fight even in danger of his death, Soshi asks him to stop and expresses his deepest respect. From his point of view, he has finally found in Yaiba what he was looking for all the time: a worthy opponent. No matter how the fight would go on, neither of them would give in and be ready risk their own lives.

Musashi explains that the phantom swords he sensed are the so-called "Tōjin", which manifest themselves in a battle between two swordmasters and become more numerous the more experienced they are. He cedes his victory to Yaiba and technically gives up, which effectively enables Yaiba to reach the finale instead. After saying goodbye to Yaiba and his friends his joy in being a modern samurai is reinvigorated and he hopes to see him again one day for a rematch when he is stronger. According to [[Gosho Aoyama]], this is also the time when he actually first developed feelings for Moroha.<ref>[[Super Digest Books#LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book|LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book]]</ref>

Yaiba later on thinks about previous challenges he had to master in his young life while fighting against [[Takeshi Onimaru|Onimaru]] in the finale, with one of the persons visible in the panel background being Soshi.

=== Detective Conan ===
==== Naniwa Swordsman Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Naniwa Swordsman Case|314-315]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ====
During a kendo tornament in Osaka, Heiji is seen hiding in the restroom reserving his energy for a fight against Soshi in the finals. He claims that Soshi must be sleeping behind the gym somewhere doing the same thing. In a previous tournament he had managed to cut Heiji behind his ear, which started bleeding heavily and the field doctor ended the match. This time a murder case occurs and prevents Heiji from participating. While [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is watching the matches, she sees Soshi win against one of his opponents. Once the case is solved, Heiji and Kazuha see their defeated teammates leaving, realizing they had missed the final match.

==== Kendo Tournament Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 93#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|990]]-[[Volume 94#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|993]], Anime: [[The Kendo Tournament of Love and Mystery|916-917]]) ====
Heiji would like to finally have his revanche with Soshi at a kendo tournament in the Tohto Gymnasium in Tokyo. Conan, Ran, and Kazuha watch his impressing fight, in which he uses the "Five-pieces thrust", baffling Conan because Soshi's opponent has to be carried out on a stretcher. Shortly after that, a murder occurs outside the tournament hall, in which one of the referees is killed and a blind man appears to be the only witness. Just when Conan examines the body and Ran contacts [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]], Soshi appears out of nowhere, whom Conan first thinks to be Heiji due to his silhouette, and who explains that the cause of death looks like a so-called "Tsujigiri" (literally "Crossing murder"), which was used by samurai in the past to test new weapons and techniques. Surprised and irritated by his demeanor, Conan asks who he is and he introduces himself as Soshi Okita from Senshin High School in Kyoto.

Ran, after calling the police, hears his introduction to Conan, who asks if he's the same Okita as the one Kazuha mentioned, the one with the "Five-pieces thrust" technique. He doesn't answer her question at all, but immediately starts flirting and inviting her to his hometown of Kyoto. This behavior and his deductions regarding the uniform the corpse is wearing, which he identifies as one of an umpire, in turn strongly remind her of Shinichi. He suddenly gets hit on the back of his head with a bamboo sword, Heiji finally arrived and exhorts him to pull himself together because Ran is already his best friend's girlfriend, which doesn't bother him, by explaining that Shinichi isn't present.

When the suspects are subsequently found at the toilets, he ungraciously stops the referee, who wanted to leave. While the police, including Takagi and [[Miwako Sato|Sato]], interrogate the suspects and Conan and Heiji investigate, he discovers the bloodstained Dōgi, the kendo armor, of the culprit behind the toilets, which reminds him that such armor had recently gone missing. As a result of the new find, Sato wants the tournament to be canceled, whereupon Heiji asks her not to do so, because he has to win to "tell [Kazuha] the words that I have to say". He immediately understands the hint that this means a victory against him and challenges Heiji to a duel on the spot.

After both getting into their battle stances and talking shop a bit, Sato intervenes and promises that if they can solve the case in time, they are allowed continue their fight, since there would no longer be a need to cancel the tournament. While Conan and Heiji continue their deductions, he unexpectedly puts on the culprit's Dōgi because it made him curious, which initially horrifies eberyone present, until it becomes clear that he has come across an interesting detail. The perpetrator must have carried the Hakama, the Dōgi pants, the wrong way around. Using this and other evidence, Heiji is the first to solve the case and is happy to triumph over Shinichi/Conan.

Just as Heiji is about to tell about his deduction, he bursts in between and does his own deduction show. In his opinion, the perpetrator is definitely the blind old man, since the fictional samurai Zatoichi was also blind after all, with his logic being that he could feel the presence of his victims. When he childishly rejoices about his own conclusions and asks the old man to quote Zatoichi's typical phrase "Life is pain", Conan and Heiji wonder if they are dealing with an idiot.

Now, Heiji is finally proceeding with the correct solution and exposes the actual perpetrator, who confesses to the murder and describes his motive to be that the victim drove his son to suicide two years ago, when he and his team were disqualified because of a victory pose, which under the kendo regulations is prohibited, but when a fighter from the Kansai region won, even though he also made a winning pose, the cuĺprit interpreted it as favoritism, since the victim also came from Kansai. Soshi clears up the misunderstanding. The fighter from the Kansai region was one of his classmates who borrowed the Okita family's omamori, a kind of talisman, from the Hachidai shrine, which has been passed down by his family for generations and with which he has never lost a fight. Since this classmate won after just one hit, the omamori peeked out from under the Dōgi and the boy held it, thanking God and crying, about which the victim commented that you should never show tears in a battle.

The culprit, who can't accept the truth, tries to attack Soshi, whereupon Heiji and he return to their battle stances. Before they can defend themselves however, Ran jumps in and gives the culprit a fatal karate kick that instantly knocks him out because she has lost her patience, Heiji shouldn't be late for his fight, so he can win and then confess to Kazuha. During all this, he unknowingly loses his omamori, which Sato picks up and takes with her when she notices it on the ground.

Despite the hurry, Ran, Heiji, Conan, and Soshi are too late. Kazuha tearfully tells them that the fight has already ended and that the opponents of Heiji and Soshi, Kurahiko Namakoshi and Takeshi Onimaru have won by nonattendance of their opponents. He takes it easy and blames Heiji's drive to solve the murder case, while Heiji in turn blames him, who allegedly wasted time with his Zatoichi monologue.

==== Café Rice Flower Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Café Rice Flower Murder Case|994]], Anime: [[The High School Girl Trio's Secret Café|919]]) ====
Ran is acting weird and always thinks of him, which makes Conan and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] triggered, so they spy on her and follow her to a café where they hide themselves. Conan listens in to Ran, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]]'s conversation about him, which makes him angry and causes him to pull Kogoro back, so that they can stay and learn more about it.

==== Crimson School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Crimson School Trip Case|1002-1003]] & [[Volume 95#Crimson School Trip Case|1005]], Anime: [[The Scarlet School Trip|927-928]]) ====
Shortly before and during their high school trip to Kyoto, Shinichi, now grown up again temporarily, is agonizing over what Ran and Soshi have to do with each other. Ran had been very enthusiastic about him back in Tokyo, which made Shinichi as Conan already extremely jealous of him, not without reason, since Soshi was not above flirting with Ran during the kendo tournament at Tohto Gymnasium.

After the start of a series of murders apparently triggered by a supernatural tengu and the riot of other tengus in downtown Kyoto, actually masked residents who were asked to do this, he appears with some friends to do the demons in, causing his classmate Momiji, who is also present with her servant [[Muga Iori|Iori]], to comment on in a dismissive way. Ran goes to him and talks about something that makes him blush, but because of the distance none of the other people present understand. Sonoko takes advantage of the moment and takes a photo of it with her mobile phone, before sending it to Shinichi, who can now think of nothing else than Ran and Soshi, which makes it difficult to concentrate for him while working deductively.

After the closing of the serial murder case and a kiss from Ran on Shinichi's cheek, this fact also gets cleared up. The omamori he lost during the kendo tournament in Tokyo and found by Sato, got sent to the Mouri detective agency, where it was discovered by Kogoro, who thought it belongs to Ran and contains a photo of Shinichi. When he curiously opens it however and to his and Ran's surprise, who just appeared, he finds the photo of a blonde girl with kendo equipment in it.

As it now turns out, he is in love with this girl, the younger sister of his greatest rival, but, similarly to Heiji and Kazuha, he cannot confess his love to her as long as he hasn't won against her brother in a kendo duel. All of this is supposed to remain secret, hence Ran should not tell Oppai (literally "breasts", his moniker for Momiji), because she would tease him about it.

==== Missing Maria Higashio Case (Manga: [[Volume 95#Missing Maria Higashio Case|1008]], Anime: [[Search for Maria-chan!|941-942]]) ====
After the press became aware of Shinichi's return through the blog entry of a fan of the [[Kudo family]], who revealed his presence in Kyoto during the Tengu chaos and thus also revealed to the [[Black Organization]] that he is still alive, Heiji shows the journalists a photo of Soshi on his smartphone, who strongly resembles Shinichi. He explains Soshi was there at the time and that the media just mistook him for Shinichi, a lie that is also supported by an agreement between Shinichi's parents and the blogger. [[Rum]] doesn't believe in this ruse, however, and commissions [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] to obtain information about Shinichi's whereabouts.

== Techniques ==
* '''Five-piece thrust'''
* '''Yokoichi Monji''' - A sword technique he learned just by watching Yaiba trying to perform it.
* An unnamed attack summoning an energy wave from the ground - this technique is very probably only canon in ''Yaiba'', because of its supernatural feature.

== Trivia ==
* Gosho Aoyama confirmed in [[Super Digest Book#Super Digest Book 40+|Super Digest Book 40+]] that the character in ''Detective Conan'' is supposed to be the same person in ''Yaiba'', and that he wanted to incorporate him in this series more often in the future, but he refrained from it for a while because his hairstyle was too similar to that of Heiji. He kept the possibility open to let him appear again in the manga, since he goes to the same school as Momiji, which he made a reality from the kendo tournament case onwards.
* Soshi and Moroha have been a fan-favorite couple in Japan since the ''Yaiba''-manga ended back in 1994, despite both never really interacting with each other in that series. Gosho seemingly took note of it and made the relationship canon over twenty years later, in the world of ''Detective Conan'' at least.
* Soshi Okita III, his ancestor of three generations ago, appeared and died in episode 71 of the anime ''[[Wikipedia: Lupin III: Part II|Lupin III: Part II]]'', a source of inspiration for ''Detective Conan''.
* Soshi Okita is the second Shinichi look-a-like to have made an appearance in the anime and manga respectively. The first being Kaito Kuroba aka Kaitou Kid.

{{nihongo|'''Soshi Okita VI'''|六代目沖田総司|Rokudaime Okita Sōshi}} is a character in the manga ''[[Yaiba]]'', who also appears in the manga and anime ''[[Detective Conan]]''.

== Background ==
[[File:EP928-Yaiba.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Soshi reminisces Yaiba and Moroha.]]
Soshi Okita is a descendant in the sixth-generation of the historical [[Wikipedia: Okita Sōji|Okita Sōji]], the leader of the legendary 19th-century samurai police force [[Wikipedia: Shinsengumi|Shinsengumi]], and was persuaded by his family, especially his so far unseen grandfather, to follow the path of the sword in his life. In the course of this, he has to train kendo in the Okita's private dojo extensively every day, which, due to his innate talent, causes him to become the "most powerful samurai" soon, who is apparently unbeaten up until his appearances in the two series. This fate, however, isn't in his own interest at all, since he is bored of being a swordmaster when there's no one around who poses a challenge.

He has a habit of looking for a quiet place in the tall grass before a fight and dozing off there to gather his strength. [[Yaiba Kurogane|Yaiba]] accidentally stumbles across him sleeping in the grass. [[Heiji Hattori|Heiji]] also mentions that he passed the first to rounds to sleep in the tall grass behind the hall.

He currently attends Senshin High School<ref>It is named after his ancestor's police force, the ''Shinsen''-gumi, with the syllables switched like the "Teitan" in [[Teitan Elementary School|Teitan Elementary]] and Teitan High Schools did with "Tantei".</ref> in Kyoto, where he attends the same class as the wealthy [[Momiji Ooka|Momiji]]. He also owns an Omamori, a Japanese kind of lucky charm, from the Hachidai shrine, which, according to him, has been passed down for generations by the Okita family and, as he believes, helped him to never lose a fight. He keeps a photograph of [[Moroha Kurogane|Moroha]], Yaiba's younger sister, inside the charm, with whom he is secretly in love, which he cannot admit until he has beaten her brother.

== Personality ==
He very often has a carefree and playful, almost childish, attitude. After mastering a sword technique called "Yokoichi Monji" in seconds solely by observing Yaiba's failed use of it and in turn using it against him in near perfection, he is overjoyed that it actually worked and left Yaiba totally perplexed. During a murder case [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and Heiji are investigating in, he unexpectedly puts on the disposed armor of the perpetrator, important police evidence, because he was curious and shortly afterwards gives his own deduction about the case, which consists of accusing a blind old man for the sole reason that the fictional samurai [[Wikipedia: Zatoichi|Zatoichi]] was blind, too. He afterwards asks the suspect in an excited manner if he can recite Zatoichi's catchphrase "Life is pain".

== Appearance ==
Apart from skin-tone and hairstyle, he looks exactly like [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]].

== Abilities ==
He is skilled at kendo. His ancestor was a great at kendo and he decided to continue his work. He practiced kendo and later decided to quit because he thought he practiced enough. He uses a technique called five-piece thrust and later, when Yaiba use an incomplete move against him, he was able to complete it. But Yaiba didn't give up, so he forfeited and promised to will practice more. He fought with Heiji and gave him a scar on his left ear, but every match has ended in default. He also looks like has deduction skill he was able to deduce about the man which was murdered, though he didn't do well in the kendo tournament of love and mystery case, making a terrible deduction and accusing the witness while trying to impress [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and beat Heiji.

== Plot overview ==
=== Yaiba ===
==== Nobunaga Oda Tournament (Manga: [[Yaiba Volume 24|246-251]] & [[Yaiba Volume 24|253]], Anime: TBD) ====
[[File:Yaiba Chapter 249 Yaiba vs Okita.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Yaiba vs. Soshi.]]
During the final arc, his name first appears on the contestant's bracket a couple of times as "S. Okita", participant "No. 0444".

After winning every previous round, Yaiba and his friends [[Sayaka Mine|Sayaka]] and [[Musashi Miyamoto|Musashi]], as well as his younger sister Moroha, trudge through some sort of bamboo forest on the artificial, skull-shaped island of Yoroi, on which the eponymous martial arts tournament is held. Yaiba literally stumbles over Soshi Okita, who's sleeping in the tall grass, which extremely upsets the former. Only then do both realize that they are in the semi-finals, and are the next mutual opponents.

It quickly becomes clear however that Yaiba is remarkably inferior to him, who's around his age, but way more experienced. With his precise and inescapable attacks, he is constantly hurting Yaiba more and more, while he doesn't land one single hit. Musashi thinks that he recognizes the movement of Shinsengumi leader Soji Okita in the boy's fighting style. He confirms Musashi's suspicion and shows the back of his uniform, which he inherited from his ancestor.

But there is something else: he actually only participates in this tournament because he made a bet with his grandfather. The latter wants to raise his grandson to be a modern samurai, but he has no interest in this at all, he doesn't want to live the life of a swordsman. He is even bored about the mere idea of traveling around and never finding anyone who could offer him a real challenge and it wouldn't gain him much money to boot, so he'd rather like to devote his life to another vocation. His grandfather made the offer that he partakes in this tournament and if he won, he was free to choose his own path in life, but should he lose, he must continue to follow the path of the sword.

At this point it looks like he is going to win his bet. He continues to beat poor Yaiba to a pulp with his "Five-pieces thrust" technique and another skill sending out energy waves from the ground, which brings Yaiba in grave danger. Meanwhile, he is increasingly becoming aware of the presence of mysterious phantom swords that seem to attack him. Just when Yaiba breaks down and Soshi walks past Yaiba's friends to the finale because he believes he has won, Yaiba stands up again and prepares another attack. Sorely shocked and deeply impressed by Yaiba's perseverance and his will to win this fight even in danger of his death, Soshi asks him to stop and expresses his deepest respect. From his point of view, he has finally found in Yaiba what he was looking for all the time: a worthy opponent. No matter how the fight would go on, neither of them would give in and be ready risk their own lives.

Musashi explains that the phantom swords he sensed are the so-called "Tōjin", which manifest themselves in a battle between two swordmasters and become more numerous the more experienced they are. He cedes his victory to Yaiba and technically gives up, which effectively enables Yaiba to reach the finale instead. After saying goodbye to Yaiba and his friends his joy in being a modern samurai is reinvigorated and he hopes to see him again one day for a rematch when he is stronger. According to [[Gosho Aoyama]], this is also the time when he actually first developed feelings for Moroha.<ref>[[Super Digest Books#LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book|LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book]]</ref>

Yaiba later on thinks about previous challenges he had to master in his young life while fighting against [[Takeshi Onimaru|Onimaru]] in the finale, with one of the persons visible in the panel background being Soshi.

=== Detective Conan ===
==== Naniwa Swordsman Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Naniwa Swordsman Case|314-315]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ====
During a kendo tornament in Osaka, Heiji is seen hiding in the restroom reserving his energy for a fight against Soshi in the finals. He claims that Soshi must be sleeping behind the gym somewhere doing the same thing. In a previous tournament he had managed to cut Heiji behind his ear, which started bleeding heavily and the field doctor ended the match. This time a murder case occurs and prevents Heiji from participating. While [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is watching the matches, she sees Soshi win against one of his opponents. Once the case is solved, Heiji and Kazuha see their defeated teammates leaving, realizing they had missed the final match.

==== Kendo Tournament Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 93#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|990]]-[[Volume 94#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|993]], Anime: [[The Kendo Tournament of Love and Mystery|916-917]]) ====
Heiji would like to finally have his revanche with Soshi at a kendo tournament in the Tohto Gymnasium in Tokyo. Conan, Ran, and Kazuha watch his impressing fight, in which he uses the "Five-pieces thrust", baffling Conan because Soshi's opponent has to be carried out on a stretcher. Shortly after that, a murder occurs outside the tournament hall, in which one of the referees is killed and a blind man appears to be the only witness. Just when Conan examines the body and Ran contacts [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]], Soshi appears out of nowhere, whom Conan first thinks to be Heiji due to his silhouette, and who explains that the cause of death looks like a so-called "Tsujigiri" (literally "Crossing murder"), which was used by samurai in the past to test new weapons and techniques. Surprised and irritated by his demeanor, Conan asks who he is and he introduces himself as Soshi Okita from Senshin High School in Kyoto.

Ran, after calling the police, hears his introduction to Conan, who asks if he's the same Okita as the one Kazuha mentioned, the one with the "Five-pieces thrust" technique. He doesn't answer her question at all, but immediately starts flirting and inviting her to his hometown of Kyoto. This behavior and his deductions regarding the uniform the corpse is wearing, which he identifies as one of an umpire, in turn strongly remind her of Shinichi. He suddenly gets hit on the back of his head with a bamboo sword, Heiji finally arrived and exhorts him to pull himself together because Ran is already his best friend's girlfriend, which doesn't bother him, by explaining that Shinichi isn't present.

When the suspects are subsequently found at the toilets, he ungraciously stops the referee, who wanted to leave. While the police, including Takagi and [[Miwako Sato|Sato]], interrogate the suspects and Conan and Heiji investigate, he discovers the bloodstained Dōgi, the kendo armor, of the culprit behind the toilets, which reminds him that such armor had recently gone missing. As a result of the new find, Sato wants the tournament to be canceled, whereupon Heiji asks her not to do so, because he has to win to "tell [Kazuha] the words that I have to say". He immediately understands the hint that this means a victory against him and challenges Heiji to a duel on the spot.

After both getting into their battle stances and talking shop a bit, Sato intervenes and promises that if they can solve the case in time, they are allowed continue their fight, since there would no longer be a need to cancel the tournament. While Conan and Heiji continue their deductions, he unexpectedly puts on the culprit's Dōgi because it made him curious, which initially horrifies eberyone present, until it becomes clear that he has come across an interesting detail. The perpetrator must have carried the Hakama, the Dōgi pants, the wrong way around. Using this and other evidence, Heiji is the first to solve the case and is happy to triumph over Shinichi/Conan.

Just as Heiji is about to tell about his deduction, he bursts in between and does his own deduction show. In his opinion, the perpetrator is definitely the blind old man, since the fictional samurai Zatoichi was also blind after all, with his logic being that he could feel the presence of his victims. When he childishly rejoices about his own conclusions and asks the old man to quote Zatoichi's typical phrase "Life is pain", Conan and Heiji wonder if they are dealing with an idiot.

Now, Heiji is finally proceeding with the correct solution and exposes the actual perpetrator, who confesses to the murder and describes his motive to be that the victim drove his son to suicide two years ago, when he and his team were disqualified because of a victory pose, which under the kendo regulations is prohibited, but when a fighter from the Kansai region won, even though he also made a winning pose, the cuĺprit interpreted it as favoritism, since the victim also came from Kansai. Soshi clears up the misunderstanding. The fighter from the Kansai region was one of his classmates who borrowed the Okita family's omamori, a kind of talisman, from the Hachidai shrine, which has been passed down by his family for generations and with which he has never lost a fight. Since this classmate won after just one hit, the omamori peeked out from under the Dōgi and the boy held it, thanking God and crying, about which the victim commented that you should never show tears in a battle.

The culprit, who can't accept the truth, tries to attack Soshi, whereupon Heiji and he return to their battle stances. Before they can defend themselves however, Ran jumps in and gives the culprit a fatal karate kick that instantly knocks him out because she has lost her patience, Heiji shouldn't be late for his fight, so he can win and then confess to Kazuha. During all this, he unknowingly loses his omamori, which Sato picks up and takes with her when she notices it on the ground.

Despite the hurry, Ran, Heiji, Conan, and Soshi are too late. Kazuha tearfully tells them that the fight has already ended and that the opponents of Heiji and Soshi, Kurahiko Namakoshi and Takeshi Onimaru have won by nonattendance of their opponents. He takes it easy and blames Heiji's drive to solve the murder case, while Heiji in turn blames him, who allegedly wasted time with his Zatoichi monologue.

==== Café Rice Flower Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Café Rice Flower Murder Case|994]], Anime: [[The High School Girl Trio's Secret Café|919]]) ====
Ran is acting weird and always thinks of him, which makes Conan and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] triggered, so they spy on her and follow her to a café where they hide themselves. Conan listens in to Ran, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]]'s conversation about him, which makes him angry and causes him to pull Kogoro back, so that they can stay and learn more about it.

==== Crimson School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Crimson School Trip Case|1002-1003]] & [[Volume 95#Crimson School Trip Case|1005]], Anime: [[The Scarlet School Trip|927-928]]) ====
Shortly before and during their high school trip to Kyoto, Shinichi, now grown up again temporarily, is agonizing over what Ran and Soshi have to do with each other. Ran had been very enthusiastic about him back in Tokyo, which made Shinichi as Conan already extremely jealous of him, not without reason, since Soshi was not above flirting with Ran during the kendo tournament at Tohto Gymnasium.

After the start of a series of murders apparently triggered by a supernatural tengu and the riot of other tengus in downtown Kyoto, actually masked residents who were asked to do this, he appears with some friends to do the demons in, causing his classmate Momiji, who is also present with her servant [[Muga Iori|Iori]], to comment on in a dismissive way. Ran goes to him and talks about something that makes him blush, but because of the distance none of the other people present understand. Sonoko takes advantage of the moment and takes a photo of it with her mobile phone, before sending it to Shinichi, who can now think of nothing else than Ran and Soshi, which makes it difficult to concentrate for him while working deductively.

After the closing of the serial murder case and a kiss from Ran on Shinichi's cheek, this fact also gets cleared up. The omamori he lost during the kendo tournament in Tokyo and found by Sato, got sent to the Mouri detective agency, where it was discovered by Kogoro, who thought it belongs to Ran and contains a photo of Shinichi. When he curiously opens it however and to his and Ran's surprise, who just appeared, he finds the photo of a blonde girl with kendo equipment in it.

As it now turns out, he is in love with this girl, the younger sister of his greatest rival, but, similarly to Heiji and Kazuha, he cannot confess his love to her as long as he hasn't won against her brother in a kendo duel. All of this is supposed to remain secret, hence Ran should not tell Oppai (literally "breasts", his moniker for Momiji), because she would tease him about it.

==== Missing Maria Higashio Case (Manga: [[Volume 95#Missing Maria Higashio Case|1008]], Anime: [[Search for Maria-chan!|941-942]]) ====
After the press became aware of Shinichi's return through the blog entry of a fan of the [[Kudo family]], who revealed his presence in Kyoto during the Tengu chaos and thus also revealed to the [[Black Organization]] that he is still alive, Heiji shows the journalists a photo of Soshi on his smartphone, who strongly resembles Shinichi. He explains Soshi was there at the time and that the media just mistook him for Shinichi, a lie that is also supported by an agreement between Shinichi's parents and the blogger. [[Rum]] doesn't believe in this ruse, however, and commissions [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] to obtain information about Shinichi's whereabouts.

== Techniques ==
* '''Five-piece thrust'''
* '''Yokoichi Monji''' - A sword technique he learned just by watching Yaiba trying to perform it.
* An unnamed attack summoning an energy wave from the ground - this technique is very probably only canon in ''Yaiba'', because of its supernatural feature.

== Trivia ==

Soshi Okita is a descendant in the sixth-generation of the historical [[Wikipedia: Okita Sōji|Okita Sōji]], the leader of the legendary 19th-century samurai police force [[Wikipedia: Shinsengumi|Shinsengumi]], and was persuaded by his family, especially his so far unseen grandfather, to follow the path of the sword in his life.

With his precise and inescapable attacks, he is constantly hurting Yaiba more and more, while he doesn't land one single hit. Musashi thinks that he recognizes the movement of Shinsengumi leader Soji Okita in the boy's fighting style. He confirms Musashi's suspicion and shows the back of his uniform, which he inherited from his ancestor.

But there is something else: he actually only participates in this tournament because he made a bet with his grandfather. The latter wants to raise his grandson to be a modern samurai, but he has no interest in this at all, he doesn't want to live the life of a swordsman. He is even bored about the mere idea of traveling around and never finding anyone who could offer him a real challenge and it wouldn't gain him much money to boot, so he'd rather like to devote his life to another vocation. His grandfather made the offer that he partakes in this tournament and if he won, he was free to choose his own path in life, but should he lose, he must continue to follow the path of the sword.

At this point it looks like he is going to win his bet. He continues to beat poor Yaiba to a pulp with his "Five-pieces thrust" technique and another skill sending out energy waves from the ground, which brings Yaiba in grave danger. Meanwhile, he is increasingly becoming aware of the presence of mysterious phantom swords that seem to attack him. Just when Yaiba breaks down and Soshi walks past Yaiba's friends to the finale because he believes he has won, Yaiba stands up again and prepares another attack. Sorely shocked and deeply impressed by Yaiba's perseverance and his will to win this fight even in danger of his death, Soshi asks him to stop and expresses his deepest respect. From his point of view, he has finally found in Yaiba what he was looking for all the time: a worthy opponent. No matter how the fight would go on, neither of them would give in and be ready risk their own lives.

Musashi explains that the phantom swords he sensed are the so-called "Tōjin", which manifest themselves in a battle between two swordmasters and become more numerous the more experienced they are. He cedes his victory to Yaiba and technically gives up, which effectively enables Yaiba to reach the finale instead. After saying goodbye to Yaiba and his friends his joy in being a modern samurai is reinvigorated and he hopes to see him again one day for a rematch when he is stronger. According to [[Gosho Aoyama]], this is also the time when he actually first developed feelings for Moroha.<ref>[[Super Digest Books#LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book|LOVE PLUS Super Digest Book]]</ref>

Yaiba later on thinks about previous challenges he had to master in his young life while fighting against [[Takeshi Onimaru|Onimaru]] in the finale, with one of the persons visible in the panel background being Soshi.

=== Detective Conan ===
==== Naniwa Swordsman Case (Manga: [[Volume 31#Naniwa Swordsman Case|314-315]], Anime: [[The Osaka Double Mystery - The Naniwa Swordsman and Toyotomi's Castle|263]]) ====
During a kendo tornament in Osaka, Heiji is seen hiding in the restroom reserving his energy for a fight against Soshi in the finals. He claims that Soshi must be sleeping behind the gym somewhere doing the same thing. In a previous tournament he had managed to cut Heiji behind his ear, which started bleeding heavily and the field doctor ended the match. This time a murder case occurs and prevents Heiji from participating. While [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] is watching the matches, she sees Soshi win against one of his opponents. Once the case is solved, Heiji and Kazuha see their defeated teammates leaving, realizing they had missed the final match.

==== Kendo Tournament Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 93#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|990]]-[[Volume 94#Kendo Tournament Murder Case|993]], Anime: [[The Kendo Tournament of Love and Mystery|916-917]]) ====
Heiji would like to finally have his revanche with Soshi at a kendo tournament in the Tohto Gymnasium in Tokyo. Conan, Ran, and Kazuha watch his impressing fight, in which he uses the "Five-pieces thrust", baffling Conan because Soshi's opponent has to be carried out on a stretcher. Shortly after that, a murder occurs outside the tournament hall, in which one of the referees is killed and a blind man appears to be the only witness. Just when Conan examines the body and Ran contacts [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]], Soshi appears out of nowhere, whom Conan first thinks to be Heiji due to his silhouette, and who explains that the cause of death looks like a so-called "Tsujigiri" (literally "Crossing murder"), which was used by samurai in the past to test new weapons and techniques. Surprised and irritated by his demeanor, Conan asks who he is and he introduces himself as Soshi Okita from Senshin High School in Kyoto.

Ran, after calling the police, hears his introduction to Conan, who asks if he's the same Okita as the one Kazuha mentioned, the one with the "Five-pieces thrust" technique. He doesn't answer her question at all, but immediately starts flirting and inviting her to his hometown of Kyoto. This behavior and his deductions regarding the uniform the corpse is wearing, which he identifies as one of an umpire, in turn strongly remind her of Shinichi. He suddenly gets hit on the back of his head with a bamboo sword, Heiji finally arrived and exhorts him to pull himself together because Ran is already his best friend's girlfriend, which doesn't bother him, by explaining that Shinichi isn't present.

When the suspects are subsequently found at the toilets, he ungraciously stops the referee, who wanted to leave. While the police, including Takagi and [[Miwako Sato|Sato]], interrogate the suspects and Conan and Heiji investigate, he discovers the bloodstained Dōgi, the kendo armor, of the culprit behind the toilets, which reminds him that such armor had recently gone missing. As a result of the new find, Sato wants the tournament to be canceled, whereupon Heiji asks her not to do so, because he has to win to "tell [Kazuha] the words that I have to say". He immediately understands the hint that this means a victory against him and challenges Heiji to a duel on the spot.

After both getting into their battle stances and talking shop a bit, Sato intervenes and promises that if they can solve the case in time, they are allowed continue their fight, since there would no longer be a need to cancel the tournament. While Conan and Heiji continue their deductions, he unexpectedly puts on the culprit's Dōgi because it made him curious, which initially horrifies eberyone present, until it becomes clear that he has come across an interesting detail. The perpetrator must have carried the Hakama, the Dōgi pants, the wrong way around. Using this and other evidence, Heiji is the first to solve the case and is happy to triumph over Shinichi/Conan.

Just as Heiji is about to tell about his deduction, he bursts in between and does his own deduction show. In his opinion, the perpetrator is definitely the blind old man, since the fictional samurai Zatoichi was also blind after all, with his logic being that he could feel the presence of his victims. When he childishly rejoices about his own conclusions and asks the old man to quote Zatoichi's typical phrase "Life is pain", Conan and Heiji wonder if they are dealing with an idiot.

Now, Heiji is finally proceeding with the correct solution and exposes the actual perpetrator, who confesses to the murder and describes his motive to be that the victim drove his son to suicide two years ago, when he and his team were disqualified because of a victory pose, which under the kendo regulations is prohibited, but when a fighter from the Kansai region won, even though he also made a winning pose, the cuĺprit interpreted it as favoritism, since the victim also came from Kansai. Soshi clears up the misunderstanding. The fighter from the Kansai region was one of his classmates who borrowed the Okita family's omamori, a kind of talisman, from the Hachidai shrine, which has been passed down by his family for generations and with which he has never lost a fight. Since this classmate won after just one hit, the omamori peeked out from under the Dōgi and the boy held it, thanking God and crying, about which the victim commented that you should never show tears in a battle.

The culprit, who can't accept the truth, tries to attack Soshi, whereupon Heiji and he return to their battle stances. Before they can defend themselves however, Ran jumps in and gives the culprit a fatal karate kick that instantly knocks him out because she has lost her patience, Heiji shouldn't be late for his fight, so he can win and then confess to Kazuha. During all this, he unknowingly loses his omamori, which Sato picks up and takes with her when she notices it on the ground.

Despite the hurry, Ran, Heiji, Conan, and Soshi are too late. Kazuha tearfully tells them that the fight has already ended and that the opponents of Heiji and Soshi, Kurahiko Namakoshi and Takeshi Onimaru have won by nonattendance of their opponents. He takes it easy and blames Heiji's drive to solve the murder case, while Heiji in turn blames him, who allegedly wasted time with his Zatoichi monologue.

==== Café Rice Flower Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Café Rice Flower Murder Case|994]], Anime: [[The High School Girl Trio's Secret Café|919]]) ====
Ran is acting weird and always thinks of him, which makes Conan and [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] triggered, so they spy on her and follow her to a café where they hide themselves. Conan listens in to Ran, [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]], and [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]]'s conversation about him, which makes him angry and causes him to pull Kogoro back, so that they can stay and learn more about it.

==== Crimson School Trip Case (Manga: [[Volume 94#Crimson School Trip Case|1002-1003]] & [[Volume 95#Crimson School Trip Case|1005]], Anime: [[The Scarlet School Trip|927-928]]) ====
Shortly before and during their high school trip to Kyoto, Shinichi, now grown up again temporarily, is agonizing over what Ran and Soshi have to do with each other. Ran had been very enthusiastic about him back in Tokyo, which made Shinichi as Conan already extremely jealous of him, not without reason, since Soshi was not above flirting with Ran during the kendo tournament at Tohto Gymnasium.

After the start of a series of murders apparently triggered by a supernatural tengu and the riot of other tengus in downtown Kyoto, actually masked residents who were asked to do this, he appears with some friends to do the demons in, causing his classmate Momiji, who is also present with her servant [[Muga Iori|Iori]], to comment on in a dismissive way. Ran goes to him and talks about something that makes him blush, but because of the distance none of the other people present understand. Sonoko takes advantage of the moment and takes a photo of it with her mobile phone, before sending it to Shinichi, who can now think of nothing else than Ran and Soshi, which makes it difficult to concentrate for him while working deductively.

After the closing of the serial murder case and a kiss from Ran on Shinichi's cheek, this fact also gets cleared up. The omamori he lost during the kendo tournament in Tokyo and found by Sato, got sent to the Mouri detective agency, where it was discovered by Kogoro, who thought it belongs to Ran and contains a photo of Shinichi. When he curiously opens it however and to his and Ran's surprise, who just appeared, he finds the photo of a blonde girl with kendo equipment in it.

As it now turns out, he is in love with this girl, the younger sister of his greatest rival, but, similarly to Heiji and Kazuha, he cannot confess his love to her as long as he hasn't won against her brother in a kendo duel. All of this is supposed to remain secret, hence Ran should not tell Oppai (literally "breasts", his moniker for Momiji), because she would tease him about it.

==== Missing Maria Higashio Case (Manga: [[Volume 95#Missing Maria Higashio Case|1008]], Anime: [[Search for Maria-chan!|941-942]]) ====
After the press became aware of Shinichi's return through the blog entry of a fan of the [[Kudo family]], who revealed his presence in Kyoto during the Tengu chaos and thus also revealed to the [[Black Organization]] that he is still alive, Heiji shows the journalists a photo of Soshi on his smartphone, who strongly resembles Shinichi. He explains Soshi was there at the time and that the media just mistook him for Shinichi, a lie that is also supported by an agreement between Shinichi's parents and the blogger. [[Rum]] doesn't believe in this ruse, however, and commissions [[Rei Furuya|Bourbon]] to obtain information about Shinichi's whereabouts.

== Techniques ==
* '''Five-piece thrust'''
* '''Yokoichi Monji''' - A sword technique he learned just by watching Yaiba trying to perform it.
* An unnamed attack summoning an energy wave from the ground - this technique is very probably only canon in ''Yaiba'', because of its supernatural feature.

== Trivia ==
* Gosho Aoyama confirmed in [[Super Digest Book#Super Digest Book 40+|Super Digest Book 40+]] that the character in ''Detective Conan'' is supposed to be the same person in ''Yaiba'', and that he wanted to incorporate him in this series more often in the future, but he refrained from it for a while because his hairstyle was too similar to that of Heiji. He kept the possibility open to let him appear again in the manga, since he goes to the same school as Momiji, which he made a reality from the kendo tournament case onwards.
* Soshi and Moroha have been a fan-favorite couple in Japan since the ''Yaiba''-manga ended back in 1994, despite both never really interacting with each other in that series. Gosho seemingly took note of it and made the relationship canon over twenty years later, in the world of ''Detective Conan'' at least.
* Soshi Okita III, his ancestor of three generations ago, appeared and died in episode 71 of the anime ''[[Wikipedia: Lupin III: Part II|Lupin III: Part II]]'', a source of inspiration for ''Detective Conan''.
* Okita is the second Shinichi look-a-like to have made an appearance in the anime and manga respectively. The first being the Kaitou Kuroba aka Kaitou Kid.

<spoiler>It turns out that Onda's death was '''accidental'''. She first had a fight with Yurina Shirosaki, which left her unconscious and bleeding. Several hours later, during the rain, she woke up and, disoriented, ventured in the nearby neighborhood. She was then hit by Ryuji Koyabu's truck, but struggled and managed to climb inside. She then asked Koyabu to drive her back to the river, where she went to retrieve Shirosaki's lost earring. She then took refuge inside the car and died there, having lost too much blood. Both suspects didn't come back in time to find her, and didn't notice her in the car.

As it turns out the motive was that Shirosaki had some designs to show Onda, but she made a mistake and was embarrassed to show her. They both struggled over the tablet and ended with Shirosaki striking Onda on the head. Shirosaki revealed that Onda had been especially hard on her and that combined with the mistake she made on the design caused her to lose control. However, Conan reveals that Shirosaki most likely has the voice recorder that Onda had used before they met. The recorder which looks like a brooch is found in her purse and played by Takagi revealing that Onda had already known about the mistakes that Shirosaki had made on the designs. Along with that Chiba reveals that they questioned one of the other employees and revealed that the reason why Onda was so hard with her was because she wanted Shirosaki to be her successor, hearing this she breaks down realizing that she had misunderstood Onda's intentions.</spoiler>

<spoiler>The culprit is '''Mamiko Hirasawa'''. She is revealed to be the daughter of Yuji Okabe, who killed himself after losing his title of chicken sexing champion at the hands of Nanba who revealed to have been cheating all along. Conan as Kogoro revealed that he had figured this out after watching the footage of the fateful day when Yuji Okabe had been cheated of his chicken sexer title. It was pretty obvious from the footage that he was in cahoots with Kusano who had rigged all the matches so that Nanba would win every single time.

Her objective was not to kill him, but to heavily injure his hands, the most important thing for a chicken sexer, to destroy Nanba's talent just like he and Kusano did with her father. She finally breaks down after remembering from Conan how she also wanted to become a chicken sexer to follow the steps of her father. Mamiko is arrested, but with Nakamura and Kitazawa's help, Nanba and Kusano's evildoing was exposed, with both being fired from their respective jobs as chicken sexer and president, and finally arrested for tax evasion and embezzlement. Nanba also lost both his title and chicken sexer license.</spoiler>

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>It turns out that Onda's death was '''accidental'''. She first had a fight with Yurina Shirosaki, which left her unconscious and bleeding. Several hours later, during the rain, she woke up and, disoriented, ventured in the nearby neighborhood. She was then hit by Ryuji Koyabu's truck, but struggled and managed to climb inside. She then asked Koyabu to drive her back to the river, where she went to retrieve Shirosaki's lost earring. She then took refuge inside the car and died there, having lost too much blood. Both suspects didn't come back in time to find her, and didn't notice her in the car.

As it turns out the motive was that Shirosaki had some designs to show Onda, but she made a mistake and was embarrassed to show her. They both struggled over the tablet and ended with Shirosaki striking Onda on the head. Onda revealed that Shirosaki had been especially hard on her and that combined with the mistake she made on the design caused her to lose control. However, Conan reveals that Shirosaki most likely has the voice recorder that Onda had used before they met. The recorder which looks like a brooch is found in her purse and played by Takagi revealing that Onda had known about the mistakes that Shirosaki had made on the designs. Along with that Chiba reveals that they questioned one of the other employees and revealed that the reason why Onda was so hard with her was because she wanted Shirosaki to be her successor, hearing this she breaks down realizing that she had misunderstood Onda’s intentions.</spoiler>

== Case ==
=== Situation ===
[[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and the [[Detective Boys]] are invited to meet Kogoro's new client in a hotel next to "Miracle Land", a newly opened theme park in Yokohama. A man in a suit greets them in front of the hotel and leads them to a meeting room on the top floor, telling them to have a seat while he gets something for them. When he comes back he hands everyone an ID watch that allows them a day's free access to all attractions in Miracle Land as well as free food and drinks.

Ran and the children decide to go and have fun in the park while Kogoro is busy. Ran wants Conan to come with them, but their host tells them that Conan also has to stay behind. The children leave and their host pulls back curtains in the room and switches a TV screen on, showing their client, a man who's sitting in front of several screens. He wears a bathrobe and his face is half hidden in the darkness. The client explains that he wants Kogoro and Conan to help him solve a mystery. To make sure they comply, he further explains that the ID watches he gave to everyone are filled with explosives, can't be taken off and will explode if someone finds the wrong answer to the mystery. The watches also have GPS systems that allow the client to track everyone's exact locations. If they are tampered with, Ran or the children leave the park or Conan or Kogoro go to the police, the client will know and will let the watches explode. The watches will be switched on once Ran and the children enter the park.

Conan tries to contact [[Ai Haibara|Ai]] with their detective badges to warn her not to get into the park, but they have already passed the entrance. Instead, Conan urges Ai not to let anyone leave the park or go on the Super Snake roller coaster because this leaves the boundaries of the park for a while.

The client explains that he already hired four detectives to work on the case. Two have given up, one is working and the last one has failed. He shows them a man locked in a room, a detective named Ryu who's familiar to Kogoro and also wears an ID watch. The client tells Ryu his deductions were wrong and then activates the explosives in the watch. Ryu dies before Conan's and Kogoro's eyes.

The client's assistant hands Conan and Kogoro a phone that can only receive calls. The first and only clue they get from the client is "TAKA 3-8". Conan deduces that they are supposed to go to part 3 of Takashima and find a house in the eighth block, which turns out to be an abandoned hotel. In a locker in the hotel basement, they find a licensed gun and woolen ski masks, thinking this might be equipment used in a robbery.

The moment they leave the hotel again, police officers try to arrest Conan and Kogoro, thinking they are accomplices of [[Kaitou Kid]], who has appeared near the hotel recently. One of the officers tells Kogoro that they are investigating two cases that happened on April 4th. A truck delivering money to a bank was robbed and this abandoned hotel was used as the base of the robbers. On the same day, Kid broke into a nearby office building and stole a few jewels.

Since none of the police officers recognise Kogoro, they take him and Conan to the nearest police station to interrogate him. In the middle of the painful debate, the client suddenly calls and Conan hurries to the bathroom to answer it. The client calls Conan [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], so Conan uses his voice-changing bow tie to explain that they didn't go to the police voluntarily and tells the client about their findings. The client gives him a new hint "look for the café terrace at night." Conan hurries out of the police station and tries to figure out where to go.

[[Heiji Hattori]] suddenly turns up and explains that he is also working on the same case and that the client has sent [[Kazuha Toyama|Kazuha]] to Miracle Land with an ID on. Kogoro catches up with Conan and Heiji and [[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]] wants to know what's going on. Kogoro starts to explain but realises the client is watching them. The client sets off a bomb as a warning. Kogoro shoves Megure aside and leaves with Heiji and Conan. Shiratori asks Megure why he is okay with this behaviour from Kogoro. Megure shows him a note from Kogoro that says "Ran and the children are in danger, don't let anyone leave Miracle Land".

Kogoro decides to go investigate on his own.

Heiji says he also got "The Café Terrace At Night" as hint, but the client also told him to look for "YOU CRY". They deduce that "[[wikipedia:Café Terrace at Night|The Café Terrace at Night]]" refers to a famous painting by Vincent Van Gogh on which a horse-drawncarriage appears in front of a café terrace lit by lamps in the evening and that this is a clue to "Carriage Way", where the transporter was robbed on April 4. YOU is short for [[Wikipedia: Yokohama National University|Yokohama Ocean University]], so that is where Heiji and Conan go next. CRY has to refer to a club at the university, Heiji thinks, but they can't find the right one when they're interrupted by [[Saguru Hakuba]], a famous teenage detective from England who spends most of his time trying to catch Kaito Kid. Saguru has also got an ID watch and decides to team up with Conan and Heiji, telling them he thinks CRY refers to the Crime Research Club of Yokohama University, so it is there they continue their investigation.

In the club rooms, some members, thinking Heiji and Saguru are interested in the club because they want to attend Yokohama University, show them around. Conan notices that among the pictures of former club presidents, the third president seems to be missing and asks for the reason. The members took the picture of the third president, Suehiko Ito, down, because he was involved in the murder of one of his classmates, Masaharu Nishio. The three detectives have lunch and Heji calls [[Goro Otaki|Inspector Otaki]] in Osaka for more information on Ito. Saguru says he has learned from his father that Ito is wanted by the police in connection with the truck robbery on April 4.

At the same time, Kogoro calls [[Eri Kisaki|Eri]] and asks her if she has further information about that same case.

Conan, Heiji, and Saguru visit Nishio's office where he was killed. They learn that Reiko Shimizu, who was employed at the same office and also a member of the Crime Research Club, committed suicide after the police questioned her about Nishio's murder.

The client calls and confirms that Nishio's murder is the case he wants them to solve.

Immediately after the phone call, two men on motorcycles attack Heiji, Saguru and Conan. They also seem to be after Kaito Kid. The three detectives decide to split up. Conan gets away on his skateboard but is followed by one of the cyclists to a bridge. He slips and falls into the river below, hitting his leg on the railing during the fall and breaking his ankle.

A petty thief steals a wallet from a woman in Miracle Land. The Detective Boys and the police pursue him and he takes [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] hostage and starts to go to the exit. Suddenly [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]] appears in front of him, on the lookout for Ran. She has no idea what the man has done but shoves him out of the way for being "rude", allowing Sato to arrest him.

Conan wakes up in [[Hiroshi Agasa|Professor Agasa]]'s car with Heiji. Heiji tells Conan that Saguru called Agasa to pick Conan up, but when Agasa arrived, Saguru was gone and that they're now on the way back to the hotel as the time limit is almost up. Otaki has also been in touch and Heiji updates Conan about the events following the robbery on April 4.

There were traces of mascara on the scope of the sniper rifle used to kill Nishio. It was found to be of the same brand Reiko wore on a regular basis but she never said anything during the police questioning. On May 15, two fishermen saw Reiko apparently jumping off a cliff, but her body was never found. Eight days later, Ito, who was grievously injured, escaped from hospital. Furthermore, Kaito Kid stole jewels from an art collection on April 4 and his escape route crossed the route the robbers took after they attacked the delivery truck. Kid saw the faces of the robbers and they started shooting at him, but missed. Since then, Kid's life has been in danger whenever he has tried to steal something.

Professor Agasa says Kogoro has already made it back to the hotel and wants to present his deductions to their client, so Conan and Heiji hurry up there to make sure Kogoro doesn't screw everything up.

Kaito Kid has gone back to the art collection to tell the owner that he has had enough of being in mortal danger whenever he wants to commit a heist. He also says he knows why the owner is still after him even after Kaito returned the jewel to him - Kaito saw him among the robbers, as well as his associate who is currently also in the room, hiding behind a curtain. He calls the police to come and arrest the owner of the collection, releasing tranquilizing gas to make sure he can't escape. His associate, however, does.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Kogoro was just about to give his report to the client when Heiji and Conan arrive. Conan tries to hit Kogoro with his tranquilizer watch but misses and accidentally knocks the client's assistant unconscious instead. As a result Heiji is forced to knock Kogoro out with a pole. Conan using a remote finds a hidden door in the wall and suspects this leads to the client's hideout, so they decide to confront him.

The client is sitting in a room with a giant computer and several screens, on a motorized wheelchair after a car accident left him blind and partially paralyzed. He asks Conan and Heiji to present their deductions. Nishio, Reiko, and the client planned and committed the truck robbery together. Things went wrong when Nishio shot and killed a guard. Kaito Kid saw Nishio's face when the three robbers tried to escape and tried to kill him as a result.

Reiko and the client decided to kill Nishio in order to keep him quiet. The client thought he wounded Nishio fatally but as Heiji explains, Nishio was already dead when he was shot by the client. The actual murderer was '''Reiko Shimizu'''. The client interjects stating he saw a Nishio falling from his chair after he fired, however Heiji reveals that this was because he had hit one of the wheels on the chair he was sitting on.

The client tried to escape after his "murder", however someone had manipulated his car, causing an accident that nearly killed him and left him with his current injuries.

The client is '''Suehiko Ito'''.

Reiko reveals herself and says that Conan's and Heiji's deductions were correct. She then tries to kill everyone to hide her involvement in the murder. Since Conan can't support his weight with his injured ankle, Heiji throws a spear at the room ceiling, helps Conan jump from his shoulders and Conan grabs the spear, swings around and knocks Reiko out with the football on his belt. The client also falls unconscious.

Conan frantically tries to deactivate the IDs when he sees a countdown on the computer screen but he needs a passcode to shut the IDs down or reset the countdown. What's worse - Reiko damaged part of the computer when she tried to shoot Heiji, Ito and Conan. Conan tries to reset the system and connects it with the client's private laptop.

The countdown doesn't stop ticking down and the programm asks for a password to deactivate the countdown. When Conan asks for a hint, the program tells him the password is "the person I love the most". Since Ito and Reiko used to date, they try Reiko's name first but it is incorrect. The computer program warns that it will shut down if they enter a second incorrect password. Conan frantically tries to recall anything helpful Ito said and comes to the conclusion that Ito is such a narcissist that the password could be his own name.

Fortunately, at the very last second, this password turns out to be correct and the timer is extended. The GPS restriction can't be turned off on the laptop but the ID watches can now be removed without being dangerous.

Conan calls Agasa to inform him that everything is fine and Agasa congratulates him. Inspector Chiba collects the IDs from almost everyone and suddenly, there is an announcement - the Super Snake which was closed for maintenance for most of the day will now open for one final ride in the evening. Everyone excitedly rushes over to ride the rollercoaster, while on the ride Heiji in a panic, realizes Genta still has his ID on. Sonoko lost her ID earlier that day but found it in her handbag - Chiba hadn't known this so he thought her ID was one of the booby trapped ones. Ai helps Genta to get the ID off but the rollercoaster takes a sharp turn and the watch lands in Heiji's hands. While he panics, the rollercoaster enters a loop and the ID lands on the empty seat behind Conan.

Conan attempts to get out of his safety restraint to grab it but can't open the belt. While he pulls at it with his super kick shoes, Kaito Kid flies in on his hang glider, grabs the ID and lets it go in a safe distance from the rollercoaster, where it explodes.

The children and Ran are delighted at the sudden "firework".

Heiji wants to know if Conan had any idea where Kid was and Conan says yes. He had long figured out that Kid was disguised as Saguru using Sonoko's lost ID and stayed behind after he handed the ID in to make sure everything ended without trouble.

Also, Ito knew Conan was Shinichi because the armchairs used in the meeting room in the morning collected everyone's fingerprints.

Kogoro's friend Ryu is actually alive and was paid a handsome sum of money if he would fake his death in front of the cameras. Kogoro thinks this was stupid of Ryu, when, just as he finishes that sentence, his phone rings, asking him if he wants to act in a commercial for sleeping pills. He is greatly offended until he learns how much money he could earn from it, at which point he immediately accepts.

'''Hints that Hakuba was Kaitou Kid'''
* Sonoko's ordinary park pass disappears at the beginning. Later, yellow paint spills on Hakuba when he, Conan, and Heiji are attacked by thugs on motorbikes. At the end of the case after Hakuba has disappeared, Sonoko finds the pass again and it has spots of yellow paint on it.
* In several scenes where Hakuba, Conan, and Heiji are standing together during a call from Ito, the scene shifts to Itoh's computer room. Only two dots representing Conan and Heiji are on the GPS location monitor, meaning that Hakuba's pass is an ordinary one and he lied about being part of the deduction contest.
* When communicating with Heiji and Conan, Itoh acknowledges them by name multiple times and keeps saying things like he's impressed that the "two" of them made it so far even though Hakuba was still with them at that point. He did not mention Hakuba at all because he never even knew he was there because he was not part of the contest and his ID was an ordinary one.
* Before Ito began explaining the rules of his "game" he mentioned that he brought four detectives there before Kogoro and Conan. One of them, Ryu, failed. He pretended to die and also mentioned the names of the two detectives who "gave up" and was presumably killed (which also turned out to be false). That left the one detective that according to Itoh was still investigating. Conan runs into Hattori later who is revealed to be the fourth detective. The fact that Kazuha is there and has an ID as well affirms the fact that he is really part of the game. And Itoh had no reason to not mention Hakuba if he brought him there.
* Hakuba steals Heiji's cellphone.
* When the thugs on motorbikes are chasing Conan, one of them is ambushed from above. The shadow of the ambusher is the triangle shape of Kaitou Kids's glider. Hakuba himself was not shown at that time.
* Hakuba says to Conan "I once again lose to you, elementary school detective" and seems to imply they have met (and competed) several times - despite that not being the case. In the movies' canon Hakuba and Conan have met only once and during that time they worked together.</spoiler>

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato

2023-01-05T09:15:43Z

778superman: /* Opening 27: MAGIC */

The romantic relationship between [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Miwako Sato]].
== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:Takagi and Sato.jpg|thumb|250px|Takagi and Sato]]
'''[[Wataru Takagi]]''' and '''[[Miwako Sato]]''' are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector [[Shiratori]] in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.<ref>Manga: [[Volume 64]], File 673: "The Common Pattern"; Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past]].</ref> After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.<ref>'''Hints of sexual relationship:'''
* [[Volume 76]], File 806, Page 6 ([[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]]): Sato accidentally reveals that she and Takagi have been sleeping together, and blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation.
* [[Volume 82]], File 867, Page 6 ([[The Case of the Lucky Calico]]): Takagi accidentally reveals that he has slept on Sato's bed because he knows that it's "soft and fluffy", both of them blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation; later in Page 9, Takagi whispers to Sato that "what was really soft and warm ''wasn't'', of course, the bedding..." in front of the kids, making her furiously embarrassed.
* [[Volume 82]], Files 869~871 ([[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9]]): Takagi misunderstands that Sato is pregnant, and is strongly convinced that the baby is his, which wouldn't make sense if they never had sexual relationship.</ref>

A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

== Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato moments ==
=== Manga/Anime ===
==== [[Volume 12|Volume 21: Files 208-210]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story|Episode 146-147: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story]] ====
* Takagi tells the Detective Boys he has someone he likes and it's quickly inferred that it's Sato.
* Takagi is told that there is someone Sato likes in the 1st division and he wonders who it is, and worries if it is [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]].
* Shiratori invites Sato out for dinner at a french restaurant after the case is resolved, and is dejected when he gets rejected by Sato.
* Sato instead invites Takagi out, and then also invites Inspector Megure, making Takagi worried that the one Sato likes might be Megure instead of Shiratori.

==== [[Volume 23|Volume 23: File 231-233]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|Episode 156-157: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2]] ====
* Takagi asks if Sato likes Inspector Megure (in that way), to which Sato replies yes (she misunderstood). She explains it's because he reminds her of her father, and Takagi realises what she means, that he misunderstood (from before). Sato teases and says he looks like he wants to say something more.

==== [[Volume 27|Volume 27: Files 267-269]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 3|Episode 205-206: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 3]] ====
[[Image:Takagi and Sato EP206 (1).jpg|thumb|250px]]
* Sato says she used to think she would grant the wish of the person who solves the mystery and catches Shuushirou, prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasise about Sato in a wedding dress. The Detective Boys immediately begin listing the wish they would like granted, and Sato thinks that only they would take it so seriously, but then notices the two men (Takagi and Shiratori) who have both gone quiet and looking like they're thinking hard (about their wishes), and she asks, "What's up with you two?"
* Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says he is super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he had super lucky fortune that day. Sato gives old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father's and that it is sure to bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
* Later, Takagi is handcuffed into a building that has been set on fire, Sato wants to rush into the building but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the building crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
* Takagi had gotten out, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them. Ai remarks that Takagi is the type to die early.
* Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
* To show her thanks and to keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what he wants, and he says he wants to go somewhere sometime with her. He thinks it's a date, but Sato drags him along an undercover mission instead.

==== [[Volume 30|Volume 30: Files 296-298]]/[[The Shinkansen Transport Case|Episode 240-241: The Shinkansen Transport Case]] ====
* As Ran is mulling over her failed attempt to ask about Shinichi's feelings for her, Takagi walks by muttering, "Doing it directly is bad..." about his situation with Sato.
* A ticket to a magic show drops out of his jacket, and when asked, Takagi says that Yumi had an extra ticket and invited him, but that he said he wasn't interested. It was a plan Yumi thought up, to see whether Sato's face would change expression when she heard, but Sato instead encourages Takagi to go.
* Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it went, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time, and Sato is behind him asking him what Yumi wanted.
* At the end of the episode, Yumi and Sato are talking, and Sato asks if Yumi likes Takagi. Yumi exclaims loudly, and thinks that her plan worked.
* Although Sato doesn't seem to care, the others remark that she is in an awfully good mood for someone who just got her pay cut (because a suspect had died in police custody) and "maybe something good happened."

==== [[Volume 32|Volume 32: File 328-330]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|Episode 253-254: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4]] ====
* Sato, pressured/forced by her mom to attend an omiai (arranged marriage meeting), randomly picks a photo of a possible suitor (with her toes, no less), and it turns out to be Shiratori.
* Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi. However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide sensei, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation. He also helps Takagi with the case.
* Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
* As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
* Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide-sensei's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's voice, stopping the kiss, and the deal.
* The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.

Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

* Sato and Takagi are going on a date to Tropical Marine Land next Sunday, every police officer knows, and it seems lots of them have requested days off and reserved binoculars for that day.
* Takagi puts on a disguise that reminds Sato of her former colleague Matsuda, and Sato slaps him as a result.
* Takagi almost gets blown up and Sato frantically tries to rescue him, not knowing that Takagi is safe, burning her hands in the process. The other infer that she was trying to save both Takagi and Matsuda.
* At the end, Sato apologies for slapping Takagi, and Takagi frets over Sato's hands, resulting in them staring into each other's eyes until they pull away, both blushing.
* Sato says everyone she has ever cared about has died, so it would be better if she and Takagi went back to just being colleagues, and Takagi agrees after a while, losing his nerve to disagree. She walks away sadly, while Takagi stares after her.

==== [[Volume 36|Volume 36: File 369-373]]/[[The Trembling Police Headquarters: 12 Million Hostages|Episode 304: The Trembling Police Headquarters]] ====
[[Image:Sato Takagi interupted.jpg|thumb|250px|Sato and Takagi were close to kissing before Megure interrupted.]]
* Takagi thinks he cannot compete against [[Jinpei Matsuda]], and is mocked by the Detective Boys. Takagi says he doesn't want to give up either.
* Sato dreams and sees the grim reaper behind Takagi, and doesn't take him to investigate bomb sites, because she doesn't want anything to happen to him.
* Near the end of the episode, Sato begins to cry on Takagi's shoulder saying that she wants to forget Matsuda, and after Takagi tells her she shouldn't forget, the two nearly kiss. However, they are interrupted by [[Juzo Megure|Inspector Megure]].
* Sato deletes her precious last mail from Matsuda and says goodbye but that she won't forget him.

==== [[The Kidnapper's Disappearing Getaway Car|TV Original/Episode 321: The Kidnapper's Disappearing Getaway Car]] ====
* Sato and Takagi have to pretend to be lovers, and both are embarrassed, Sato makes Takagi sit closer to her and put his arm around her.

==== [[Volume 40|Volume 40: Files 404-406]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 5|Episode 358-359: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 5]] ====
* Takagi and Sato are going on their very first date to Tropical Marine Land, where the police officers are following them, led by Shiratori with cameras and binoculars.

* Eventually the bag drops into the water and the ring is lost.
* Sato makes Takagi promise that he'll never go away and leave her.
* Conan thinks to himself that though Takagi lost his bag, he gained something much more precious.

==== [[Volume 44|Volume 44: Files 450-452]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 6|Episode 390-391: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 6]] ====
* Sato sternly orders Takagi into her car, so Takagi wonders if he did something wrong. He starts worrying and even thinks she is going to break up with him. However, when he opens the door and a toy snake leaps out, scaring him, Sato starts laughing, commenting that the trick worked perfectly. Takagi is relieved and they flirt cutely. (Chiba and Shiratori are actually watching them the entire time)
* The police department is lead to believe that Takagi will be sent far away on a case for a long time. However, instead of being sad or disappointed, they are ecstatic that Takagi will be leaving (and therefore staying away from Sato). Takagi is, however, disappointed that Sato seems to be indifferent, even asking for twentieth century pears while Yumi burst into tears.
* While investigating the case, Takagi yells, "I'm definitely not going to find another woman! Definitely not!" when he overhears the Detective Boys chatting about Hide (the soccer player) leaving the country and finding a girlfriend as he thought they were talking about him. When he realizes that this is not the case, he is quite embarrassed.
* Takagi is upset that Sato still hasn’t shown any emotion about his leaving Tokyo, but when Sato falls for her own trick with the toy snake, she is silent and appears upset and then suddenly asks Takagi if he won’t forget her even if a super sexy actress becomes the police chief.
* Right after Takagi blurts that he wants to be engaged with Sato before he leaves, [[Inspector Megure]] informs them that it is actually Chosuke Takagi who is being sent away not Wataru.
*Sato, who is blushing a lot, asks what Takagi just said, but he quickly changes the subject and says that they should go to karaoke with the kids. Takagi is shown sighing at the karaoke with Conan and Ai watching him.

==== [[Volume 47|Volume 47: Files 484-486]]/[[A Jewel Thief Caught Red-Handed|Episode 401-402: A Jewel Thief Caught Red-Handed]] ====
* Conan and the Detective Boys run into Takagi as he enters into a jewelry shop to buy a brooch for Sato.
* Shiratori heckles him about the jewelry shop visit and the brooch.
* Takagi makes Sato go and look through the coat for the brooch, and it turns out Yumi tricked both Takagi and Shiratori into buying jewelry that Yumi liked. Sato laughs and remarks that she never was one for flashy things.

==== [[Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out]] ====
* While Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are working on [[Rena Mizunashi|Rena Mizunashi's]] bell ringer prank case, Conan hops to an empty apartment next door to her, which should be unoccupied.
* Conan looks on a glass door or window and sees "Ki Mi Wa."
* When it dawned on Conan what was going on, he called Takagi, who admitted that a few days ago, he was doing a stake-out, and wrote on the glass, "Takagi Miwako," and forgot to wipe it up. In short, what Sato's name would be, if they married.
* By the time, that Conan saw the glass, the "TaKa" and "Ko" were erased.

==== [[Volume 50|Volume 50: 511-514]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 7|Episode 431-432: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 7]] ====
[[Image:Takagi and Sato EP432 (2).jpg|thumb|250px]]
* Takagi and Sato have both been invited to a goukon (singles mixer) separately, and both went to even out the numbers, but they didn't tell each other and get jealous when they see each other paying attention to other people.
* In the middle of the case, Sato and Takagi break out into a jealous quarrel.
* Takagi ends up figuring out the case and saving the kidnapper from suicide, getting praise from Inspector Megune.

[[Image:Takagi and Sato EP449 (3).jpg|thumb|250px]]
* Sato is annoyed that Yumi is sticking too close to Takagi as Yumi and Takagi play stand ins for a couple on their wedding day.
* Later in the case, Sato switches places with Yumi to protect her from the culprit. She tries to arrest him when he attacks her, but then she mistakenly pins Takagi down to the ground since said culprit is a man who looks a lot like Takagi.
* Months later, it turns out that a witness to the 'attack' is a famous photographer and has used a picture he took of Sato pining Takagi down in a commercial ad. Sato and Takagi are embarrassed, and Chiba slyly tells Shiratori that he can't take the ads down.

* Takagi (and the rest of the police department) is worried about the sudden appearance of a ring on Sato's left hand.
*Ran congratulates Takagi on his engagement to Sato, but is shocked when he learns that the ring is not from him. He says that he feels like he’s on a tightrope with Sato, which helps Conan solve the case.
* Turns out Sato was just wearing it as a charm (because she misunderstood something Yumi said), and Takagi gets her to wear a ring he buys for her, although Sato still thinks it's a charm.

==== [[Volume 60|Volume 60: 625-627]]/[[The Truth Behind the Urban Legend|Episode 530-531: The Truth Behind the Urban Legend]] ====
[[Image:Takagi and Sato EP530 (5).jpg|thumb|250px|Sato almost kisses Takagi, Conan is scolded for interrupting ]]
* Takagi and Sato are on a stakeout when Sato says suddenly “give me a hot kiss right now!” and they nearly kiss but they are interrupted by Conan, who points out that they are pretending to be lovers. However, he is scolded by Sonoko because she wanted to see them kiss.
* Later, they both trip as they inspect the bathtub that Conan points out, and end up face to face, staring into each others' eyes while blushing, until Conan coughs and interrupts them again.
* Takagi keeps thinking back to the almost kiss, and gets jealous over the thought that Sato also pulled the "appear as lovers, pretend to kiss" ploy with Chiba on previous stakeouts. (Chiba had just told him that he pretended to be lovers with her and would never forget that “soft feeling”).
* Later, he realizes that Sato had only to held Chiba's hand, and that she asked Takagi to kiss her because it was him.

==== [[Volume 64|Volume 64: Files 667-673]]/[[The Scar that Evokes the Past|Episode 534-535: The Scar that Evokes the Past]] ====
* Sato tells Takagi that after the case is solved she’ll go with him to the new hot springs place, and this motivates Takagi to takes up a more active role in the investigation. Sato, however, begins to worry when she hears from Superintendent Matsumoto that this is a very bad signal and that such reckless behavior is likely to trigger Takagi's death in the line of duty. She is even reminded of her father and Jinpei Matsuda.
* Takagi is captured by the killer, and then receives a cellphone call from Sato. The killer deduces that Sato is Takagi's girlfriend and tries to force him reply and stage an even bigger hostage situation. Takagi breaks said cellphone instead, winking and saying, “guess I’ll be your only hostage now.”
* Few minutes later, the still captured Takagi mistakenly believes that Sato is a member of the group that is trying to rescue him and is at the front door. He tries to stop said killer from harming the officers but gets shot for it. In the anime, he even calls out to her before passing out.

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato

778superman: /* Movie 17: Private Eye in the Distant Sea */

The romantic relationship between [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Miwako Sato]].
== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:Takagi and Sato.jpg|thumb|250px|Takagi and Sato]]
'''[[Wataru Takagi]]''' and '''[[Miwako Sato]]''' are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector [[Shiratori]] in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.<ref>Manga: [[Volume 64]], File 673: "The Common Pattern"; Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past]].</ref> After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.<ref>'''Hints of sexual relationship:'''
* [[Volume 76]], File 806, Page 6 ([[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]]): Sato accidentally reveals that she and Takagi have been sleeping together, and blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation.
* [[Volume 82]], File 867, Page 6 ([[The Case of the Lucky Calico]]): Takagi accidentally reveals that he has slept on Sato's bed because he knows that it's "soft and fluffy", both of them blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation; later in Page 9, Takagi whispers to Sato that "what was really soft and warm ''wasn't'', of course, the bedding..." in front of the kids, making her furiously embarrassed.
* [[Volume 82]], Files 869~871 ([[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9]]): Takagi misunderstands that Sato is pregnant, and is strongly convinced that the baby is his, which wouldn't make sense if they never had sexual relationship.</ref>

A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

* Sato says she used to think she would grant the wish of the person who solves the mystery and catches Shuushirou, prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasise about Sato in a wedding dress. The Detective Boys immediately begin listing the wish they would like granted, and Sato thinks that only they would take it so seriously, but then notices the two men (Takagi and Shiratori) who have both gone quiet and looking like they're thinking hard (about their wishes), and she asks, "What's up with you two?"
* Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says he is super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he had super lucky fortune that day. Sato gives old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father's and that it is sure to bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
* Later, Takagi is handcuffed into a building that has been set on fire, Sato wants to rush into the building but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the building crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
* Takagi had gotten out, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them. Ai remarks that Takagi is the type to die early.
* Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
* To show her thanks and to keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what he wants, and he says he wants to go somewhere sometime with her. He thinks it's a date, but Sato drags him along an undercover mission instead.

* Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it went, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time, and Sato is behind him asking him what Yumi wanted.

* Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi. However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide sensei, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation. He also helps Takagi with the case.
* Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
* As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
* Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide-sensei's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's voice, stopping the kiss, and the deal.
* The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.

Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

(Chiba and Shiratori are actually watching them the entire time)
* The police department is lead to believe that Takagi will be sent far away on a case for a long time. However, instead of being sad or disappointed, they are ecstatic that Takagi will be leaving (and therefore staying away from Sato).

* While investigating the case, Takagi yells, "I'm definitely not going to find another woman!

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato

2023-01-05T09:13:13Z

778superman: /* Movie 25: The Bride of Halloween */

The romantic relationship between [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Miwako Sato]].
== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:Takagi and Sato.jpg|thumb|250px|Takagi and Sato]]
'''[[Wataru Takagi]]''' and '''[[Miwako Sato]]''' are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector [[Shiratori]] in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.<ref>Manga: [[Volume 64]], File 673: "The Common Pattern"; Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past]].</ref> After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.<ref>'''Hints of sexual relationship:'''
* [[Volume 76]], File 806, Page 6 ([[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]]): Sato accidentally reveals that she and Takagi have been sleeping together, and blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation.
* [[Volume 82]], File 867, Page 6 ([[The Case of the Lucky Calico]]): Takagi accidentally reveals that he has slept on Sato's bed because he knows that it's "soft and fluffy", both of them blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation; later in Page 9, Takagi whispers to Sato that "what was really soft and warm ''wasn't'', of course, the bedding..." in front of the kids, making her furiously embarrassed.
* [[Volume 82]], Files 869~871 ([[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9]]): Takagi misunderstands that Sato is pregnant, and is strongly convinced that the baby is his, which wouldn't make sense if they never had sexual relationship.</ref>

A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

* Sato says she used to think she would grant the wish of the person who solves the mystery and catches Shuushirou, prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasise about Sato in a wedding dress. The Detective Boys immediately begin listing the wish they would like granted, and Sato thinks that only they would take it so seriously, but then notices the two men (Takagi and Shiratori) who have both gone quiet and looking like they're thinking hard (about their wishes), and she asks, "What's up with you two?"
* Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says he is super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he had super lucky fortune that day. Sato gives old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father's and that it is sure to bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
* Later, Takagi is handcuffed into a building that has been set on fire, Sato wants to rush into the building but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the building crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
* Takagi had gotten out, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them. Ai remarks that Takagi is the type to die early.
* Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
* To show her thanks and to keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what he wants, and he says he wants to go somewhere sometime with her. He thinks it's a date, but Sato drags him along an undercover mission instead.

* Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it went, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time, and Sato is behind him asking him what Yumi wanted.
* At the end of the episode, Yumi and Sato are talking, and Sato asks if Yumi likes Takagi. Yumi exclaims loudly, and thinks that her plan worked.
* Although Sato doesn't seem to care, the others remark that she is in an awfully good mood for someone who just got her pay cut (because a suspect had died in police custody) and "maybe something good happened."

* Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi. However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide sensei, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation. He also helps Takagi with the case.
* Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
* As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
* Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide-sensei's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's voice, stopping the kiss, and the deal.
* The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.

Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

(Chiba and Shiratori are actually watching them the entire time)
* The police department is lead to believe that Takagi will be sent far away on a case for a long time. However, instead of being sad or disappointed, they are ecstatic that Takagi will be leaving (and therefore staying away from Sato).

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato

2023-01-03T09:18:47Z

778superman: /* Movie 25: The Bride of Halloween */

The romantic relationship between [[Wataru Takagi]] and [[Miwako Sato]].
== Relationship analysis ==
[[Image:Takagi and Sato.jpg|thumb|250px|Takagi and Sato]]
'''[[Wataru Takagi]]''' and '''[[Miwako Sato]]''' are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector [[Shiratori]] in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.<ref>Manga: [[Volume 64]], File 673: "The Common Pattern"; Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past]].</ref> After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.<ref>'''Hints of sexual relationship:'''
* [[Volume 76]], File 806, Page 6 ([[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]]): Sato accidentally reveals that she and Takagi have been sleeping together, and blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation.
* [[Volume 82]], File 867, Page 6 ([[The Case of the Lucky Calico]]): Takagi accidentally reveals that he has slept on Sato's bed because he knows that it's "soft and fluffy", both of them blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation; later in Page 9, Takagi whispers to Sato that "what was really soft and warm ''wasn't'', of course, the bedding..." in front of the kids, making her furiously embarrassed.
* [[Volume 82]], Files 869~871 ([[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9]]): Takagi misunderstands that Sato is pregnant, and is strongly convinced that the baby is his, which wouldn't make sense if they never had sexual relationship.</ref>

A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

* Sato says she used to think she would grant the wish of the person who solves the mystery and catches Shuushirou, prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasise about Sato in a wedding dress. The Detective Boys immediately begin listing the wish they would like granted, and Sato thinks that only they would take it so seriously, but then notices the two men (Takagi and Shiratori) who have both gone quiet and looking like they're thinking hard (about their wishes), and she asks, "What's up with you two?"
* Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says he is super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he had super lucky fortune that day. Sato gives old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father's and that it is sure to bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
* Later, Takagi is handcuffed into a building that has been set on fire, Sato wants to rush into the building but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the building crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
* Takagi had gotten out, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them. Ai remarks that Takagi is the type to die early.
* Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
* To show her thanks and to keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what he wants, and he says he wants to go somewhere sometime with her. He thinks it's a date, but Sato drags him along an undercover mission instead.

* Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it went, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time, and Sato is behind him asking him what Yumi wanted.
* At the end of the episode, Yumi and Sato are talking, and Sato asks if Yumi likes Takagi. Yumi exclaims loudly, and thinks that her plan worked.
* Although Sato doesn't seem to care, the others remark that she is in an awfully good mood for someone who just got her pay cut (because a suspect had died in police custody) and "maybe something good happened."

==== [[Volume 32|Volume 32: File 328-330]]/[[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4|Episode 253-254: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4]] ====
* Sato, pressured/forced by her mom to attend an omiai (arranged marriage meeting), randomly picks a photo of a possible suitor (with her toes, no less), and it turns out to be Shiratori.
* Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi. However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide sensei, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation. He also helps Takagi with the case.
* Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
* As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
* Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide-sensei's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's voice, stopping the kiss, and the deal.
* The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.

Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

Kazunobu Chiba and Naeko Miike

778superman: /* Movie 25: The Bride of Halloween */

The romantic relationship between [[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Naeko Miike]].

== Relationship analysis ==
[[File:Chiba being reminded of the younger Miike.jpg|thumb|200px|Chiba being reminded of the younger Miike.]]
[[Kazunobu Chiba]] and [[Naeko Miike]] were childhood friends and attended Teitan Elementary together where they both joined the school broadcasting committee (although Naeko only joined because Chiba did). When Naeko was to move away, Chiba wrote down his feelings in a love letter. Naeko wrote her response on the side of a VHS in the committee storage room, hoping Chiba's sweating habit would cause the message "I like you, too" to show up on his hands after grabbing the tape. Unfortunately, Chiba couldn't find the right tape and never got the message.

On the day of his elementary school reunion, Chiba returned to the school and searched for the tape again. With the help of Conan and the [[Detective Boys]], he finally finds the message and heads for the reunion. Unfortunately Naeko doesn't show, and he hears from a former classmate that she said she is "now with the one she loved". Depressed, Chiba immediately leaves and finds a lady traffic cop giving him a ticket. When the officer offers to forget about the ticket since he is a fellow officer, Chiba scolds her for offering to ignore his illegal parking. Chiba leaves with the ticket, but then wonders how the girl knew he was a detective. The officer turns out to be Naeko, who has just been transferred to the police headquarters in Tokyo (working under Yumi) and looks forward to working with the one she loves.

After some time, they met again during a case involving threats that were placed in cars. They forced to investigate the cases together by Detective Boys. Unfortunately, Chiba doesn't recognize who Naeko really is. Their relationship began to improve when Naeko tried to contact Chiba to rescue her when she gets kidnapped. Thanks to the Conan's help, Chiba managed to rescue Naeko and arrest the culprit. However, Naeko was injured while protecting Chiba, forcing Chiba to carry her to the hospital. On the way, Chiba worried about Naeko's bleeding, he tried to cross the red light, but Naeko managed to convince him from breaking the rules; using the same words that Chiba told her in the past. Chiba finally manages to recognize Naeko after hearing those words as his love interest. The two walk towards the hospital, while blushing at the same time.

Later, at the shopping center, Sherilyn is found stabbed. A series of explosion then happened. The police later found Kaitou Kid's card, covered with blood, at the lift where Sherilyn was.

In the meantime, [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]], and [[Sonoko Suzuki|Sonoko]] have come to Singapore to cheer on the strongest karateka with a streak of 400 consecutive victories, [[Makoto Kyogoku]], who is fighting in a karate tournament held there. [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]], who doesn't have a passport and can't travel overseas, was supposed to stay at home. He begs for [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] to give him the antidote for him to transform to Shinichi, but she refuses.

Later that night, while Conan goes out for a walk, Kid, disguised as Ran, sneaks up behind Conan. Conan notices her, but then gets captured. Conan, realizing he is trapped in a suitcase, uses a pen to poke the zipper and he promptly gets out. Looking around, he realizes that he is in Singapore. Conan also realizes his body color got darker.

Conan tries to look around for Ran, but notices [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]], who is really Kid in disguise, is here as well. Shinichi/Kid makes brief talk with Ran and Sonoko, and then goes over to Conan. Kid tells Conan about his mission and the sapphire. The task is a bit special, so he bought Conan over to help him. Conan refuses, but Kid tells him how he transported him over, and that he will not be able to get back to Japan, gets his glasses, wristwatch and clothes, amongst others unless Conan helps Kid.

At this moment, Ran finds Shinichi and notices Conan. Ran, who doesn't realize who he is, asks him his name and he improvises the name Arthur Hirai. Meanwhile, Sonoko texts for Ran to meet her at a place. She is texting Makoto as well when Reijiro Nakatomi and his bodyguards pass by in her path. Sonoko argues with Reijiro, who is surprised by her attitude, but then Makoto comes and defeats all of Reijiro's bodyguards. Reijiro quickly escapes.

The group and Arthur briefly talk under a bridge. Makoto tells them that because his sponsor Sherilyn died, he cannot fight the final round in the karate tournament. Sonoko then agrees to be his sponsor.

As they walk back to the hotel, Rishi Ramanathan approaches them. He asks Kogoro to solve a case for him, but Kogoro refuses as he is on vacation. Shinichi/Kid tells him the benefits of becoming friends with a reserve police officer, benefits that Kogoro likes the most, so he agrees. Rishi then shows him Kid's notice.

Meanwhile, at a villa, Hezli Jamaluddin assures that he will beat Makoto in the tournament.

Rishi and the group arrive at the villa. Rishi explains to Kogoro about the sapphire, mentioning the gem is in the basement. They go downstairs, and Zhon Han Chen arrives as well.

Leon enters the safe room with his fingerprints, showing the group its impenetrable security. He fumbles with the computer, and one of the safe boxes comes down from near the ceiling. The sapphire, along with the karate belt, is then shown to the group. When nobody was looking, Kid takes out an invisible marker and marks the particular safe. When he finished, he shook hands with Leon, promising to protect the safe and gaining Leon's fingerprint.

Chen organized a world karate tournament to decide who will get the jewel, which was stored at Lowe's hyper-security vault, but Kaitou Kid had different plans. He will steal it, and by any means.
}}

That night, Kid flies down to the villa and proceeds his heist. He bypasses all the guards, security cameras, and hidden lasers. Kid unlocks the safe room with Leon's fingerprint that he retrieved earlier, finds the particular safe box, and prepares to steal the sapphire. However, he is then confronted by Leon, who was waiting for Kid in the safe room. The two make a brief conversation, while Jamaluddin sneaks up from behind. Kid manages to dodge his attack, but then Leon shoots Kid with a stun gun. Leon and Jamaluddin leave the safe room, with Kid unconscious.

All the safe boxes in the safe room are suddenly covered with protective metal, and the room shrinks in size. Water rises from the bottom of the safe room, which was intended to drown Kid. He however escapes to ground level. A guard spots him and the alarm sounds. Kid escapse all of the guards, but as he is about to escape, Makoto shows up to fight him. As Makoto is about to defeat Kid, a soccer ball rockets towards him from nowhere. Kid manages to escape while Makoto is distracted by the ball. From atop a building, Conan checks out the scene with his gadgets. The soccer ball was kicked by Conan.

Kid picks up Conan and tells him the situation. For many years, Leon Lowe, a criminal behavior psychologist, had been aiming for the legendary secret treasure sapphire buried in the seabed for a purpose. However, when he was so close to retrieving it, Zhon Han Chen found the sapphire. Someone may have hinted the location of the sapphire. Leon also had a lawyer, Sherilyn Tan, but they broke their relationship. So Sherilyn decided to become Makoto's sponsor, so Jamaluddin could not win the tournament. If Jamaluddin did, then the sapphire would then belong to Leon. Thus Sherilyn was killed. The police are suspicious of Leon, but he wasn't on the list of suspects. They think Kid could be the killer, since there was a Kid card found on the elevator. Kid then brings Conan back to the hotel.

Meanwhile, in a pub, Kogoro is drinking when Rachel Cheung comes and gives him a business card, telling him to meet her at the sports center tomorrow.

The next day, the group goes to watch the Zhonan Cup. Jamaluddin defeats all of his opponents. Kid says he won't make a move if the sapphire goes to Makoto. Makoto then arrives and fights his first match. He immediately punches his opponent out of the arena. Ran gets a call from Kogoro, who cannot enter the stadium. Rishi comes over and lets him in. He decides to take them to view the safe. Shinichi/Kid finds this as another opportunity to observe the security enforcements and steal the sapphire.

Rishi tells them, the password to the safe changes every 10 minutes, and is only sent to Inspector Mark Aidan, Rishi and Leon's cell phones. Rishi explains that the safe room seem empty but actually the floor is equipped with weight sensors and the ceiling is equipped with security cameras. The safe room is surrounded by police as well. Suddenly, Kogoro remembers the card Rachel gave to him at the pub. Conan tells him that it’s Leon’s card, on the back which writes for him to meet at the stadium’s exit 3 at 3 pm. It’s almost 3 pm, so Kogoro and Arthur rush over. Kid, meanwhile, has found a way to steal the sapphire.

Meanwhile, Makoto is in his changing room. Leon enters, congratulating him on the match today. He jokingly asks him to be his bodyguard. Makoto proceeds to leave, but then Leon gets serious: he asks why Makoto’s fist is existent. He says his fist will lead to others, including loved ones, suffering. Leon proceeds to say good luck and leaves the room. Sonoko enters and takes Makoto out for lunch. Ran decides to stay because Shinichi/Kid wants to guard the safe.

Outside of the sports center, Inspector Aidan is talking to his guards when Rachel accidentally bumps into him. They apologize to each other and Rachel continues on her way. She then receives a text message. She walks back to Aidan and apologizes one more time, while slipping the phone into his pocket no one noticed. Rachel then goes the safe entrance, and tells the guards that Aidan is calling them, and that she can guard the safe in the meantime. They agree.

Kid, disguised as Rachel, proceeds to his heist. He attaches a device showing the safe and altering the security cameras, and grapples into the room. As he proceeds to cut the glass surrounding the sapphire, Rachel's body falls out, surprising Kid. The alarm sounds and Kid has to but escape. Before that, however, he notices that Rachel wrote something with her blood, but he doesn't have time to check. The safe door is closing. He escapes the safe room at the last second. Guards rush from one hallway. Kid backs off and discards them with a card gun. Aidan and his officers surround him. Kid shoots a grappling hook in Mark's direction, bypassing him and his officers. They stumble into a mess.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Kogoro are waiting for Rachel to come. They then notice an alarm in the sports center, and rush there, thinking Kid has made his move. Kid escapes the pursuing officers at the stadium and flies away. He happens to pass by Arthur and Kogoro Suddenly, Rishi arrives, telling the two to rush to the safe room.

Aidan has not given up yet. He commands his officers to give chase. Kid lands on a small street, thinking he has escaped the police. Suddenly, officers arrive and before Kid can take his card gun out, they shoot him.

Rishi tells Kogoro about Rachel's dead body. Arthur mentions that Kogoro scheduled to meet with Rachel at the exit, but she went to send a message to Aidan before that. He notices that Rachel wrote a few words with blood: "SHE".

Kid, after being shot, lays down behind a building by the pier.

Sonoko and Makoto had just finished eating lunch. As they prepare to go somewhere else, a burly man knocks into her and drops his lunch. He blames Sonoko for the incident, but Makoto stops him and they fight. While Makoto fights him and his gang, Sonoko runs to a nearby police car. Two police officers fell out from the vehicle, unconscious, and the car crashes into Sonoko. Makoto rushes over and realizes what Leon told him earlier was true.

At the Singapore General Hospital, Leon arrives and sends a bouquet to Sonoko. He then tells Makoto that the gods are testing him, and he is not ready yet. Leon gives Makoto a wristband. Should the wristband break, he will gain the power. Should he use his fists before the wristband breaks, the bad will happen.

Kid dresses his wounds behind a building, the police thought he was dead so they stopped searching for him, while he talks to Arthur. He gives back Conan's gadgets and flies away.

While Rishi is preparing to go home, he sees Arthur alone. Arthur asks if he could stay at Rishi's house for the night. Rishi agrees.
Rishi logs on to his computer to study the info Mark gave him. Arthur shoots him with his Stun Gun Wristwatch and proceeds to check all the information Rishi gathered.

Leon and Jamaluddin meet with Eugene Lim at a small pier. Kid takes this chance to take photos of Leon and Eugene.

The next day, Jamaluddin is seen to defeat all his opponents and proceed to the final round. However, Makoto resigns to stay with Sonoko. He is afraid that the thugs will attack them again, and he cannot use his fist. Sonoko is angry and tells him to leave.

Arthur meets up with Shinichi and reveals the information he found on Rishi's computer yesterday night.

According to a witness, Sherilyn Tan indeed fell in the shopping mall, but she could have been stabbed in an elevator in Tower 3. The murderer chose to kill her in an elevator, because she would have nowhere to run. Leon had booked both his and Sherilyn's rooms. When the incident happened, many people witnessed Leon to be in another elevator. The police confirmed that he was not at the crime scene when it happened, so they cleared him from the list of suspects. Leon was carrying a piece of luggage, but it was empty. He was just retrieving the luggage from a shipment, which was confirmed as well. Kid's notice on the elevator had been stuck there with fake blood, and Rachel was killed in an attempt to frame Kid. The guards could not have moved Rachel's body into the safe room because they could easily activate the sensors or get caught by the security cameras. Thus Leon is the most suspicious individual as he has access to the safe.

Leon could have forced Makoto to resign and not fight the tournament, so Jamaluddin could win and the sapphire would belong to Leon. Conan asks why, and Kid shows him a photo of Eugene. Conan asks Haibara to search up the identity of the man.

Leon sees Jamaluddin win the finals. He then has flashback when he explained to Zhon and other council members about his plan of building a new city. Zhon and the rest laugh him off, but Leon has not given up.

Meanwhile, Eugene and his pirates take over an oil ship.

Leon meets with Nakatomi and tells him his plan: to rebuild the whole city. Nakatomi can only but agree.

Arthur and Shinichi find Kogoro at a pub. Arthur takes a gold Nakatomi coin out of Kogoro's passport holder and runs away. They watch a news report of Nakatomi visiting Singapore. Arthur gets a call from Haibara, who has found the identity of the man, Eugene Lim. Arthur asks Haibara to search for all Nakatomi ships nearby the pier and their routes. She reports back that there are two cargo ships and one oil ship nearby. However, the oil ship is not on its planned route. Arthur then asks for Haibara to send the information of that ship to him.

Arthur explains to Shinichi how the gathered clues can be put together: "SHE" can also refer to a ship, and the Nakatomi coin refers to a Nakatomi ship. Eugene has hijacked a Nakatomi ship, with the agreement of Nakatomi himself.

The two decide to call Rishi and tell him the situation.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
Zhon Han Chen found the sapphire and decided to award it to the winner of the karate tournament, but Leon wanted the sapphire, so he sent Jamaluddin to win the tournament and retrieve the sapphire. However, he had to face Makoto, who had Sherilyn as his sponsor. Thus Leon had to kill Sherilyn. Leon was in a different elevator when the crime happened, which created his alibi. The killer is indeed '''Leon Lowe''', while '''Rachel Cheung''' was his accomplice. Since Sherilyn's room was very high up, she had to take a second elevator at 34F to go to the ground level. While she was walking to another elevator, Rachel dragged her to her own bedroom and Sherilyn was killed there. Leon put Sherilyn's body in his suitcase and headed downstairs. Meanwhile, Rachel, disguised as Sherilyn, took another elevator downstairs. She had a magic fake knife in her back that raised the minute she walked with Sherlyn's blood on it. She pretended to stumble and fall into a civilian. It was then that Leon activated the bombs, which caused the explosion and blackout. Leon then takes a picture of dead "Sherilyn". Rachel then gets up and takes off her disguise. Leon takes the real Sherilyn's body out of the suitcase and lays it in the exact position. Rachel was shocked by Leon's plan, so she wanted to ask Kogoro for help. Leon knew this and killed her, trying to blame Kid.

Arthur receives the infomation from Haibara. He deducts that if the ship continues on its altered route, it will crash into Marina Bay. Leon wants the pirates to crash the oil ship into the city, destroying everything in the process so he can rebuild the city according to his plans.

Rishi wonders how Leon may have found the pirates, who are scattered all over the world. Arthur explains that the lions spewing bloody water would have made it to the headlines, which would attract their attention. Rishi thinks they do not have enough time to explain everything to the police so he can only but call Zhon for help.

Later that night, Ran prepares to watch a water fountain show.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Shinichi wait atop a bridge. Arthur suddenly gets an update of the location of the oil ship: it is definitely going to crash into the hotel, and it is already very close.

Arthur desperately runs back to the hotel and tries to call Ran, but she does not respond. A few passerbys on the pier spot the ship, and more people gather to see. The ship breaks open the dam and water floods into the pier.

Everyone by the pier and in the hotel panic and try to run away. Ran calls Kogoro and realizes that he is at a pub on the rooftop, not aware of the situation.

Makoto knocks on Sonoko's door and tells her to leave the hotel. She refuses.

Arthur and Shinichi cannot reach the hotel dues to the crowd. Shinichi decides to transform back to Kid and fly over there.

On the hotel rooftop, Leon, Nakatomi, and Hezli discover Kogoro in his Sleeping Kogoro state. Leon activates a bomb, destroying a building in the city. He is confident of his plan, when '''Rishi Ramanathan''' walks over and points a gun at them.

A heavily armed team raids and stops the oil ship. Eugene and his men flee.

On the rooftop, Nakatomi begs for Rishi to not to shoot him Rishi opens fire, but does not hit him. Leon is surprised Rishi would do such a thing, and commands Jamaluddin to fight Rishi. He refuses, saying that he was hired only to fight Makoto. Without anything else, Leon protects himself with the sapphire in a container, promising to hand it over to him. Rishi does not care about the sapphire and prepares to kill Leon, but is stopped by Kid. He ties up Rishi.

Ran tries to go to the rooftop. Eugene and his men trail behind.

On the street, the police try to hold back the pirates, who are advancing towards to hotel. Another building in the city is destroyed.

Arthur and Kid confront Rishi. Arthur had been testing Rishi earlier and noticed that he was lying. One instance was that Rishi stated Leon could escape on a plane to another country while the destruction took place. However, Leon was a confident person and would stay nearby to verify his plan. Rishi wanted to avenge Nakatomi for his father's death. He found details of the sapphire while researching an oceanography book, but Leon knew about this and teamed up with Nakatomi to kill him. Rishi's father was struck by Nakatomi's personal boat a few years ago, when he jumped into the water to save a drowning person. Furthermore, Rishi pointed out that Leon defended Nakatomi when questioned by the police, to which Nakatomi gets frightened.

Rishi finishes his talk and Kogoro wakes up. Ran arrives on the rooftop, but is surrounded by the pirates. The pirates take over and hold Arthur, Kid, Kogoro, Jamaluddin and Nakatomi hostage. Leon concludes his plan has failed and handed the sapphire over to Eugene. However, he instead unties Rishi and holds Leon hostage.

Pirates outside of the building siege the bay. The police attempt to fight back.

Makoto breaks open Sonoko's room door and escapes with her, followed by pirates.

Back on the rooftop, Kid suddenly drops smoke bombs, which quickly spread. Ran and Kogoro take advantage of this and defeat many of the pirates, then run away. Arthur activates his gadgets and join the fight as well. Meanwhile, Makoto tries to fight the pirates. However, he cannot use his fists because the wristband has not broken yet. Makoto and Sonoko manage to escape. Arthur backs away from the fight on the rooftop and plunges down the hotel. Fortunately, he is saved by Kid. They discover that the pirates are launching rockets to destroy more of the city. The pirates attempt to shoot him down, but fail. Makoto reaches the rooftop. Arthur tells Kid that if he can break Makoto's wristband with his card gun, Makoto can use his fists again. Kid swoops in to shoot his card.

The card successfully cuts the wristband. Makoto suddenly goes and defeats most of the pirates. Jamaluddin decides to face Makoto in a duel, while a few pirates watch. Meanwhile, Ran and Kogoro face more pirates. Arthur jumps down and creates a furniture inferno that knocks out all the pirates in the way. Kid grapples Eugene's container holding the sapphire. Makoto fights Jamaluddin. Eugene commands the rocket launcher to shoot Kid down, but he shoots a flying Kid dummy, which causes a giant explosion. Kid dives down from behind and ties him up.

The explosion sets most of the rooftop on fire and the roof begins to slide off. Makoto backs off and ties Sonoko to his back. Makoto and Jamaluddin fight their final round. Makoto defeats him. They get serious and the rooftop will fall into the ocean. Everyone can only but to hold on.

The rooftop falls into the ocean and creates a giant wave that gulps up a bridge. Rain falls, putting out the fires. Leon, who awakes from being unconscious, sees the sapphire land right in front of him. Kid decided to give it to him. Sonoko takes off Makoto's band-aid and realizes that it contained a photo of Sonoko and Makoto. Rishi awakes as well and asks Arthur who he really is: Conan Edogawa, detective.

In the mid-credits, Kogoro, Shinichi, Ran and Sonoko are seen in an almost empty Boeing 747 from Japan Airlines while Makoto continue his journey to America. A TV lit on a channel called NNC shows the commented arrest of Lowe, Jamaluddin, Ramanathan, Nakatomi, Lim and his Pirates in Southeast Asia by Aidan and his subordinates. Another report shows Marina Bay Sands being rebuilt with the collaboration of the Suzuki Group while it showed [[Jirokichi Suzuki]] with his singaporean associates.

In the post-credits, Kogoro, Sonoko, Ran, Shinichi, and Conan are returning from the Tokyo International Airport Haneda, when Ginzo Nakamori and his team confront Shinichi, who is still Kid in disguise. In the confusion, Conan gets out of the luggage, goes to Professor Agasa and Haibara, and puts on new clothes. Ran discovers that she is holding a fake hand and walks over to them as the police chase Kid. Ran is glad that she can see Conan again.</spoiler>

* This is the first movie setting in another Asian country, never happened in the manga and anime series. The canon case of the [[The Scarlet School Trip#Trivia|The Scarlet School Trip]] was initially planned to be set in Singapore, but the setting was changed to Kyoto in pre-production.
* Interestingly enough, this is also the first movie directed by a woman, [[Chika Nagaoka]], and is likely to become the highest-grossing movie directed by a woman in Japan.
* The movie had promotional collaborations with ''[[Wikipedia: Fist of the North Star|Fist of the North Star]]'', ''[[Wikipedia: Avengers: Endgame|Avengers: Endgame]]'', and ''[[Wikipedia: Urusei Yatsura|Urusei Yatsura]]''.

* Arthur Hirai is derived from [[Wikipedia: Arthur Conan Doyle|Arthur Conan Doyle]] and [[Wikipedia: Edogawa Ranpo|Taro Hirai]] (Edogawa Ranpo's real name), just like how Shinichi came up with the name Conan Edogawa.
* The white swimsuit worn by Ran in the pool is one of those she bought in [[The Blind Spot in the Dressing Room#Trivia|The Blind Spot in the Dressing Room]].

* This movie was promoted with two special guest voice actors. Actress and model [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayuko_Kawakita Mayuko Kawakita] voiced Rachel Cheung, while actor and singer [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikusaburo_Yamazaki Ikusaburo Yamazaki] played Leon Lowe.
** <spoiler> This marks the first time that a special guest voiced a murder victim. Incidentally, the other special guest voices the killer.</spoiler>
* [[Gosho Aoyama]] originally planned to have an allusion to [[Aoko Nakamori]] with the blue sapphire in the movie, but refrained from it, thinking people wouldn't notice it.<ref>[[Lets Talk with Gosho Aoyama Day#2020]] 
Q: In the director's interview of the 2019 movie (Fist of Blue Sapphire), he talked about how you said, after the movie was finished "It was the blue sapphire so maybe I should've put hints of Aoko there"; if you had done that, how would've it been like? 
Aoyama: Ah... See, in the end he'd return the blue sapphire to him. And when he did he did so, saying he didn't need it, he'd said "I've got a better sapphire"... 
(Applause from the audience) 
Aoyama: Huh? You wanted me to actually do that? (laughs) 
Questioner: Yes! 
Aoyama: Really!? (laughs) That for real? Well, I thought you wouldn't catch (the reference) so that's why I didn't (laughs) What. So you'd actually welcomed it? Well, imagine it within your minds (laughs) 
Translated by Spimer.</ref>
* In the English Dub, Leon Lowe was voiced by Hattori Heiji’s first english dub voice actor Kevin M. Connolly.

=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
The [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] to the [[APTX 4869]] begins to wear off and Shinichi is about to change back to Conan. Ran holds onto him and refuses to let him go but is tranquilized by Haibara and Shinichi is able to become Conan again without anyone noticing.

On another day, the Detective Boys are on a camping trip when Professor Agasa's car runs out of gas, stranding them in the middle of the mountain. A man named Goki Sudo drives by and refuses to help their situation. Soon after, Sudo drives to his home atop the mountain and an explosion occurs.

}}

The Detective Boys arrive to find Sudo dead. The police investigate and declare the death as an accident caused by a lit cigarette and spilled gasoline which vaporized in the garage. As the police interrogates Sudo's fiancée, Ena Ginbayashi, Conan reveals Sudo was not smoking a cigarette and that something else caused the explosion. Due to Ena's inconsistency with her story, Conan deduces the explosion was a planned murder by Ena.

==== Part 2 ====
Conan interrogates the party guests at Sudo's home and learns Ena has been persuading her husband to wear his wool sweater under his fleece jacket and to use his classic car for the past three weeks.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The police ask Ena to come with the station with them so they may ask more questions. She is escorted by Agasa's car where they stop by Agasa's garage to refuel on gas. Agasa trips, spilling the gasoline, and asks Haibara to use the key and open the trunk to his car. She is however stopped by Ena who proclaims an explosion will occur due to a static shock. The garage door opens and the police reveal it was a setup in order to gain a confession from Ena. Conan reveals that the reason '''Ena Ginbayashi''' was asking Sudou to wear his wool and fleece combination was to build up static electricity. He reveals that since Sudo's classic car did not use a remote keyless system, when Sudo attempted to lock his car with his keys, the static electricity he built up transferred from the key to the car-door's lock resulting in a spark which ignited the vaporized gasoline. Ena reveals that her motive was revenge. In the past her father had a heart attack and her mother, who was unable to drive, could not drive him to the hospital. Sudo, passing by the couple, refuses to drive them to the hospital and instead, laughs at their predicament. Her mother then passed away shortly after due to shock of the incident and Ena swore revenge against Sudo ever since.

== Manga to anime changes ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
*The scene in which Conan and Heiji were reflecting on Shinichi holding Ran's hand during his transformation was from the manga version of [[The Revolving Sushi Mystery|The Revolving Sushi Mystery, Part 1]], but was included due to following up on [[What She Really Wants to Ask]].
* In the manga, Conan is shown sitting in the back of Agasa’s beetle between Haibara and Ayumi. While in the anime, Conan is sitting in the front passenger seat and feels Haibara’s glare rather then seeing it like in the manga.

== Trivia ==
* The car Goki Sudo was driving to Sudo household and exploded is a Brown 1963 Rolls-Royce Phantom V by James Young.

=== Situation ===
==== Part 1 ====
The [[Antidote (Prototype)|antidote]] to the [[APTX 4869]] begins to wear off and Shinichi is about to change back to Conan. Ran holds onto him and refuses to let him go but is tranquilized by Haibara and Shinichi is able to become Conan again without anyone noticing.

On another day, the Detective Boys are on a camping trip when Professor Agasa's car runs out of gas, stranding them in the middle of the mountain. A man named Goki Sudo drives by and refuses to help their situation. Soon after, Sudo drives to his home atop the mountain and an explosion occurs.

{{InfoBox Crime

| victim = Goki Sudo
| age = 34 years old
| cause-death = Gas explosion
| suspects = Ena Ginbayashi
| description = Conan and detective boys found the Spirit of Ecstasy from Rolls-Royce Exploded.
}}

The Detective Boys arrive to find Sudo dead. The police investigate and declare the death as an accident caused by a lit cigarette and spilled gasoline which vaporized in the garage. As the police interrogates Sudo's fiancée, Ena Ginbayashi, Conan reveals Sudo was not smoking a cigarette and that something else caused the explosion. Due to Ena's inconsistency with her story, Conan deduces the explosion was a planned murder by Ena.

==== Part 2 ====
Conan interrogates the party guests at Sudo's home and learns Ena has been persuading her husband to wear his wool sweater under his fleece jacket and to use his classic car for the past three weeks.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>The police ask Ena to come with the station with them so they may ask more questions. She is escorted by Agasa's car where they stop by Agasa's garage to refuel on gas. Agasa trips, spilling the gasoline, and asks Haibara to use the key and open the trunk to his car. She is however stopped by Ena who proclaims an explosion will occur due to a static shock. The garage door opens and the police reveal it was a setup in order to gain a confession from Ena. Conan reveals that the reason '''Ena Ginbayashi''' was asking Sudou to wear his wool and fleece combination was to build up static electricity. He reveals that since Sudo's classic car did not use a remote keyless system, when Sudo attempted to lock his car with his keys, the static electricity he built up transferred from the key to the car-door's lock resulting in a spark which ignited the vaporized gasoline. Ena reveals that her motive was revenge. In the past her father had a heart attack and her mother, who was unable to drive, could not drive him to the hospital. Sudo, passing by the couple, refuses to drive them to the hospital and instead, laughs at their predicament. Her mother then passed away shortly after due to shock of the incident and Ena swore revenge against Sudo ever since.

== Manga to anime changes ==
{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
*The scene in which Conan and Heiji were reflecting on Shinichi holding Ran's hand during his transformation was from the manga version of [[The Revolving Sushi Mystery|The Revolving Sushi Mystery, Part 1]], but was included due to following up on [[What She Really Wants to Ask]].
* In the manga, Conan is shown sitting in the back of Agasa’s beetle between Haibara and Ayumi. While in the anime, Conan is sitting in the front passenger seat and feels Haibara’s glare rather seeing it like in the manga.

== Trivia ==
* The car Goki Sudo was driving to Sudo household and exploded is a Brown 1963 Rolls-Royce Phantom V by James Young.

"The Criminal"

The {{nihongo|'''Criminal'''|犯人|han'nin}} in ''[[Detective Conan]]'' is a substitute image for the culprits presented in and is usually depicted as a black or dark humanoid figure, looking like an evil demon. It is used whenever the reader or watcher is to be made aware of the culprit's actions while attempting to keep their identity secret for the time being. Though usually depicted as a criminal, the silhouettes are sometimes protagonists, but their identity has to be kept a secret from both the viewers/readers and/or [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]].

== Character evolution ==
=== First appearances ===
[[Gosho Aoyama]] stated that the idea of drawing the silhouette of the culprit was directly ripped off Kindaichi Case Files. The first black figures were very shady and roughly drawn in, and had no real body formation. They usually didn't even have a clearly drawn in face, as was shown in [[Nazo]], the third opening. Sometimes, the figures resembled enough of the actual criminal's body that it could give away the true identity of the culprit.

=== Later changes ===
[[File:femaleculprit.jpg|thumb|left|200px|The female criminal.]]
As the series went even further, the figure received a more human-like appearance with the gradual addition of eyes, noses, mouths, and finally muscles. However, the culprit still maintains a dark hue, lacking distinct clothing, body hair (including beards) and other physical anomalies, like overweightness.

The figure remains very generic, looking more like a man or a genderless person (an exception in episodes 354-355 and 369, because an evidence confirms that the murderer is female and thus the criminal has feminine appearance with breasts), keeping the audience guessing about the true identity and physical characterstics of the culprit in question.

== Trivia ==
* In Japan, a hooded jacket is sold with the face of "The Criminal" on the hood. When this is pulled down over the wearer's face, it makes them look like it.
* The Criminal was used the most in the episode [http://Detective_Boys%27_Locked_Room_Mystery_Battle Detective Boys Locked Room Mystery Battle] as he was in multiple scenarios that was thought of by the detective boys.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>'''Masayoshi Sakaguchi''' trained the dog John to kill Takeshi. Masayoshi's son Masato had committed suicide due to bullying from Takeshi years prior. He had trained John to listen to the clock and phone to attack Takeshi when he said the words through the phone.

Masayoshi originally decided to forgive Takeshi when he showed regret for his actions during Masato’s funeral, Takeshi moved away shortly after. When Takeshi moved back to the town years later, Masayoshi saw that he was still a bully as he witnessed him stealing money from another person, prompting him to train John to kill Takeshi. However Conan scolds him for his actions stating that John had been continually waiting for his master, sitting in front of his room almost everyday. He states that all of this would never have made his son Masato happy, Masayoshi breaks down realizing his mistake, and has a heartfelt farewell with John. It is later revealed John had been adopted by a nice family instead of being put down.</spoiler>

=== Situation ===
==== The suspicious boat ====
At [[Wikipedia: Maizuru|Maizuru Bay]], on the dawn of April 20<ref name="time">As shown on [https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/File:M17_Ticket.jpg Ran's ticket].</ref>, a coast guard named Masaaki Kurata finds a suspicious boat during his patrol. Upon examining the inside of the boat, he discovers some explosives and immediately reports this to the Wakasa Coast Guard. The discovery quickly hits the news reports, where is it revealed that the boat contains data and components not found in Japan. It's also believed to have entered Japan illegally.

}}

==== The military exercises ====
On the same morning, [[Conan Edogawa]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Sonoko Suzuki]] and the [[Detective Boys]] board an Aegis Destroyer warship, ''Hotaka'', to experience public military exercises after they've won the tickets. Before getting aboard, Conan receives a call from [[Professor Agasa]], who's currently in Osaka together with [[Ai Haibara]], via the newly added satellite-phone on his [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]]. The professor wants to test if the new gadget is working properly, but doesn't forget to leave a quiz for the children before hanging up.

After boarding the ship, the participants are gathered at a meeting room. While the Chief Navigator Fumitada Inoue is explaining about the exercise schedule, Ran mentions that her watch was broken and sent to be repaired. Mitsuhiko then lends her his waterproof [[wikipedia:Radio clock|radio-controlled watch]], which sets itself at 5 AM and 5 PM every day according to radio transmitters. Suddenly, they hear a strange loud sound. Fumitada explains that it was just the sound of the pumping system operating, however, Conan wonders whether that was really the case.

The participants are guided into the ship's [[Wikipedia: Operations room|Combat Information Center]] (CIC), where they are to witness a simulated anti-air combat. However, after having "shot down" the two set-up targets, the guards continue to detect a sonar response. An unidentified target of unknown nationality slowly approaches the ship. The tactical action officer quickly reports this to their captain, Yukio Tateishi, who orders them to search for the target, before heading to the CIC himself. Following him is a female [[wikipedia:Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force|Self-Defense Force]] (SDF) member, Nanami Fujii. The civilian participants are generally impressed by the realistic and tense atmosphere of the training, only Conan realizes that they're truly under attack. Yukio instructs the crews to prepare for an anti-submarine combat. They decide to fire a torpedo towards the unknown object. The ship is slightly hit with the shockwave caused by the impact. Conan then notices a sick boy with no accompanying adult. The crews are relieved that their target is nothing but a shipwreck. Fumitada announces to the participants that the "exercises" are now over.

==== Meeting Yuuki and Nanami ====
The participants arrive at the deck during free time. Conan sees the boy from before, who is called "Yuuki-kun" by a man nearby. Conan wonders if the man is Yuuki's father, and finds it suspicious that he didn't notice the shock, and wouldn't show himself until after the free time had started. He decides to follow the two, only to be stopped by Kogoro. Conan then notices Nanami Fujii, who's also on the deck at the time. Conan borrows Mitsuhiko's camera and begs Nanami to take a group photo with them, attempting to get a close-up shot of her. When asked about her specific work on the ship, Nanami answers that she only cooks everyone's meal, a lie that Conan can easily perceive due to her captain-ranked insignia. Before Nanami leaves, Kogoro reaches for one of his flashy business card as he wants to hand it to her himself. Unfortunately, the detective's clumsiness causes the cards to fly all around them. They pick the cards up and give them to Ran.

Conan borrows Mitsuhiko's camera again and runs off to a corner. He gives Agasa a call via the satellite-phone and asks him to investigate Nanami basing on the picture that he sent to Haibara, specifically from which department does the SDF member come from. The ship crews detect a satellite transmission from where Conan was calling Agasa. They suspect that "X" is among the civilians. Conan then sees some crew members checking his previous hiding spot. He wonders whether they have found out about the call, or it was actually something else.

==== Discovering the arm and its owner ====
Conan plans to chase after the crew members with the excuse of "going to the toilet", but Ran doesn't trust him and suggests that the two go together. On the way, Ran mentions that she almost got lost earlier, which reminds Conan that Ran isn't always good with directions. He remembers the time when Ran also got lost at [[Tropical Land]]. However, she wasn't afraid of getting lost again, because she knew that Shinichi would always find her, as he's a great detective; to which Shinichi replied: "Don't you worry! I'll always find you, wherever you are."

Unsurprising to Conan, Ran gets lost again as their path was blocked with a forbidden sign. Suddenly, they hear a scream coming from a room beyond the limit. Upon arriving, they see a human arm wearing SDF's Lieutenant uniform on the table. They advise the crew members to consult Kogoro.

In Osaka, [[Heiji Hattori]] gets a call from Conan, who informs him of the situation. He, together with [[Kazuha Toyama]], heads off to Maizuru. The ship crews detect Conan's satellite signal again but don't find any transmitter. It is then that he learns of the person with the code name "X". Unfortunately, Conan's phone rings again as he receives a call from Agasa, who's about to inform him that their search for Nanami didn't find any match. However, he manages to hide before the crew members discover him. Conan then looks for a different method of communication, and he comes across a room with strong magnetic field.

Meanwhile, inside the bridge, Hotaka's Captain Yukio Tateishi and Captain Makoto Sekiguchi from the Wakasa Military Police discuss the case with Kogoro and Ran. Kogoro deduces that the arm wasn't cut off by a sharp blade and was removed post-mortem. As it was found inside the pumping system's filter, they conclude that the arm was sucked in by the pumping system and got stuck in the filter, making the loud sound from earlier. Yukio hesitantly reveals that the arm probably belongs to Lt. Sasaura from the Wakasa base, whose whereabouts is currently unknown. Kogoro agrees with this assumption after seeing that his clock stopped at 5:30 AM that morning. According to Yukio, Sasaura wasn't in that day's shift. As the pumping system was started when they left Maizuru Harbor, Sasaura's body must have already drifted at the time. Fearing that it would be too late for an autopsy when they get back, Conan hints that they use the helicopter to transport the arm, pretending that it's only a demonstration. Kogoro then informs [[Inspector Megure]] of the case, not knowing that Nanami is watching nearby.

Conan and Ran encounter Yuuki when they come to watch the "demonstration", and notice that his father is missing again. Yuuki doesn't want to let Ran tell the crews about his situation and attempts to run away before dropping some medicines for food allergies. Just as he's about to leave, Yuuki's father appears. Conan comes to the magnetic room and contacts Agasa, in order to avoid being discovered. Haibara tells him about her discovery. Meanwhile, at a shipyard in Wakasa Bay, Heiji and Kazuha find Sasaura's body. Heiji notices a red stain on Sasaura's neck and secretly retrieves it.

==== Initial investigation ====
[[File:M17 Heiji's theory.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Heiji's conclusion.]]
Inspector Megure, [[Miwako Sato]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and two officers from Wakasa Coast Guard, Masaaki Kurata and Tsutomu Munekawa, arrive at the ship in a helicopter. Heiji informs Conan that he's found the body at Wakasa Bay. He surmises that Sasaura drifted there after having his arm swallowed at Maizuru Harbor. After hearing about the red stain, Conan asks Heiji to meet up with Agasa.

[[File:M17 Police's theory.gif|right|250px|thumb|The police's theory on what happened to the body.]]
While the civilians are having lunch, the police suggest an investigation on the ship, considering that the victim might have been sucked into the pump before she ship departed. Conan follows them to the deck, where they find Sasaura's phone. The last email was after 9 PM and the last call was at 5:30 AM. According to the autopsy, his death was between 4 AM and 6 AM and the cause of death is drowning, which means that he was on the ship before falling into the sea at 5:30 AM. Kogoro deduces that Sasaura had a fight with someone on the deck and was eventually pushed down. This also confirms that his body was stuck in the filter before the departure, and the arm was severed when they left Maizuru Harbor. Sato finds an empty microSD slot on the phone. Kogoro thinks that the card was the culprit's target. Conan then sees Nanami spying on the investigation and gives chase.

==== Nanami's mission and spy "X" ====
Nanami enters the captain's office and checks the content of the microSD card stolen from Sasaura's phone. Conan imitates the captain's voice to trick her out of the room. Conan finds out that she hasn't completely deleted the extracted data and attempts to copy them into the new USB flash drive on his watch. However, Nanami realizes that she was tricked and quickly makes her way back to the office, Conan is thus unable to retrieve all of the data. She wonders why X is interested in the data. To uncover her true identity, Conan deliberately sends the data to Agasa from within the room, creating a detectable satellite signal.

The police arrive at the captain's office. They demands that Nanami explain herself, but Yukio and Makoto refuse to cooperate. Conan then comes out and innocently points out all of the contradictory facts about Nanami, forcing her to reveal herself as a member of the Intelligence Security Command. Due to the incident with the foreign boat, they suspect that the spy X, whose target is believed to be classified intel on Aegis Destroyers, might be on board. It's also revealed that the victim was the Director of Intelligence for the Wakasa SDF base. His duty was to guard information on Aegis Destroyers. Because of this, they suspect that X was the killer. Conan wonders why Nanami doesn't talk about the card. He plants a bug on Kogoro before running off.

==== Investigation on the victim ====
Conan asks Heiji, who's now inside Agasa's car, about the red stain. They learn that it's [[wikipedia:Anti-fouling paint|anti-fouling paint]], a special paint used for ships. Conan asks them to check if the paint was from Hotaka. Heiji says that there is no current that could've sent the victim's body from Maizuru Harbor to Wakasa Bay. Conan then asks about the data from earlier, about which Agasa reveals that it's indeed a data of Aegis Destroyers, and was copied from a cloud service. If they have the ID and password, they can get the original data from the cloud. Conan wonders why would Sasaura store such important data on a public cloud service. He instructs Agasa to access the cloud data and send it to the captain's office.

Back in the captain's office, Kogoro asks Inspector [[Fumimaro Ayanokoji]], who's just arrived, to share the result of his investigation. Having investigated the victim's actions before his death, Fumimaro reveals that at 5:30 AM, Sasaura was waving a Japanese flag on a cliff at Maizuru Harbor, as witnessed by a crew member of a sightseeing cruise nearby. He then asks Makoto about the interrogation of Sasaura, but Nanami doesn't let the latter answer. Luckily, Agasa sends the data as instructed, forcing Makoto to reveal that data about the ships have been leaked by Sasaura, and sent to a shell company of a spy called Takekawa. This, together with the suspicious boat, indicates that a spy from the same country as Takekawa attempted to board this ship with the victim's help. It also explains Nanami's motive for taking the memory card. Nanami contacts her superior, and learns that Takekawa has been spotted in Kyoto. His plan is to meet up with X, who's currently on board. They then work together to track down Takekawa.

==== Takekawa's whereabouts and the truth behind the shipwreck ====
Components from the same country as the ones in the foreign boat was found on the shipwreck. As the sailing route of the ship was changed from right to left that morning and only people from the Wakasa base knew about this, X wouldn't have known the true direction to send out the shipwreck. However, the flag that Sasaura waved turns out to be a signal flag, the purpose of which was to inform X of the change. Nanami becomes suspicious of Conan's knowledge.

Takekawa was spotted at 12:03 PM in Ponto Town Park (Kyoto), where he's shown dropping something into a trash can. Conan asks Heiji to go to the park before the police do. At 12:10 PM, Takekawa got on an express train to Osaka. They then ask the Osaka Police to cooperate.

Heiji manages to catch up before the police arrive and takes a photo of Takekawa's burned memo.

Back at the cafeteria, Conan revises the whole case and realizes X's motive for sending the shipwreck. Unexpectedly, Nanami approaches him and questions about his identity. Without telling her the truth, Conan drops his façade and directly asks Nanami whether there is any kind of data that can only be obtained on the ship. Nanami confirms his theory and says that the only two places where such data can be found are the CIC and captain's office. Conan deduces that during the emergency, the captain had to come to the CIC; that's when X made his move in the captain's office. He now realizes who X is and quickly runs off, with Nanami and Ran chasing behind. Makoto then informs Nanami that they spotted Takekawa at Yodoyabashi Station (Osaka). Conan tells Heiji to go after him, while he confronts X himself.

==== X's true identity ====
<spoiler>
'''The man who claims to be Yuuki Amemiya's father''' is spy X. Conan tells Yuuki to hide away before exposing that the man's not his real father. X attempts to silence Conan, but then flees because there are two many civilians on the deck. Conan gives chase, but Yuuki, fearing about his real father's safety, intervenes. Meanwhile, after examining the picture of Takekawa's burned memo, Heiji concludes that Takekawa will come to Senshu Airport (now known as Kansai International Airport). He reports this to Inspector [[Goro Otaki]].

Conan tells the police that Yuuki's father vanished at Maizuhu Harbor, where Yuuki was forced to board with a strange man. Because Conan also remembers X's face, they invite him to check the camera footage. The Osaka police head to Kansai Airport in chase of Takekawa.

X destroys the footage before Conan can locate him. Yuuki wants to help them catch X, so Fumitada goes together with him, only to be assaulted by the spy. X takes Yuuki to the deck and are spotted by Ran, who's looking for Conan. Yuuki tells Ran about X's true identity. Ran fights X, but is eventually defeated and thrown into the sea.

At Kansai Airport, Kazuha spots Takekawa and tries to catch him. She chases him to a dead end. Takekawa shoots Kazuha, but Heiji jumps in and takes the bullet for her. Luckily, Otaki arrives just in time to stop Takekawa. Kazuha cries even though Heiji's not fatally wounded.

[[File:M17 dragging.gif|thumb|250px|What really happened to the body.]]
Meanwhile, Yuuki leads the police to X. While Miwako and the others chase X, Conan instructs Nanami to ambush on the deck. X takes a crew member hostage. Conan tells Nanami to rotate the cannon anticlockwise. Before X manages to escape, Conan uses the setting to kick a ball at him.

After the two spies are captured, they discover a suspicious voice-mail sent by Sasaura to Takekawa, which was recorded at 5:30 AM. Conan hears sounds of waves, some metallic clicking sounds and a man's voice in the record. Agasa calls him to inform that the paint wasn't from Hotaka, but from a sightseeing cruise, which left Maizuru Harbor and passed by Wakasa Shipyard. Conan deduces that the victim's body was dragged along the cruise from Maizuru Harbor to Wakasa Harbor. After revising all of the evidences, Conan realizes he has been misled.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
Sasaura's death was an '''accident'''. He slipped into the ocean and drowned after being chased by '''Masaaki Kurata''', who thought he was someone suspicious.
{{InfoBox Evidence|
'''Direct evidences:'''
* The person who stole the card was '''Nanami''', not X, which means that X has no clear motive to kill Sasaura, who's supposed to be his accomplice.
* The time when the victim's watch stopped, his last phone call, the voice-mail record, and the sightseeing cruise staff witnessed him waving a flag on a cliff at Maizuru Harbor all match with his estimated time of death: '''5:30 AM'''. This clearly indicates that Sasaura fell from the cliff itself, not from Hotaka.
** The same sightseeing cruise, not Hotaka, dragged his body all the way to Wakasa Harbor further proves that he was never on the ship.
** It also shows that the last location of his phone would be near the cliff, not on the ship.
* Nobody noticed '''the phone''' despite being left at a very obvious place. This shows that it hadn't been on the ship since the victim died, but was actually brought recently from the real "crime scene" after they departed, during midday. Masaaki was one of the people who had the chance to do this.
* '''The metallic sound''' heard in the record was the sound made when an expandable baton and a gun bump into each other, both of which Masaaki is wearing. He's the only one to patrol near Maizuru Harbor at the time.

'''Other hints:'''
* At the beginning of the movie, Masaaki is already shown running down the cliff in hurry for some unknown reasons, despite not having even seen the suspicious boat yet. He was trying to find Sasaura at the time, who had just fallen into the sea.

Conan breaks down in tears when it is believed that Ran has died, and screams her name causing her to regain consciousness, allowing the helicopter to find and rescue her, she is then immediately carried to the hospital. After Kurata is arrested, Yuuki reunites with his real father. Fujii asks Conan who he really is, but Conan simply replies he is just an elementary school student.

=== Situation ===
==== The suspicious boat ====
At [[Wikipedia: Maizuru|Maizuru Bay]], on the dawn of April 20<ref name="time">As shown on [https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/File:M17_Ticket.jpg Ran's ticket].</ref>, a coast guard named Masaaki Kurata finds a suspicious boat during his patrol. Upon examining the inside of the boat, he discovers some explosives and immediately reports this to the Wakasa Coast Guard. The discovery quickly hits the news reports, where is it revealed that the boat contains data and components not found in Japan. It's also believed to have entered Japan illegally.

}}

==== The military exercises ====
On the same morning, [[Conan Edogawa]], [[Ran Mouri|Ran]] and [[Kogoro Mouri]], [[Sonoko Suzuki]] and the [[Detective Boys]] board an Aegis Destroyer warship, ''Hotaka'', to experience public military exercises after they've won the tickets. Before getting aboard, Conan receives a call from [[Professor Agasa]], who's currently in Osaka together with [[Ai Haibara]], via the newly added satellite-phone on his [[Stun-Gun Wristwatch]]. The professor wants to test if the new gadget is working properly, but doesn't forget to leave a quiz for the children before hanging up.

After boarding the ship, the participants are gathered at a meeting room. While the Chief Navigator Fumitada Inoue is explaining about the exercise schedule, Ran mentions that her watch was broken and sent to be repaired. Mitsuhiko then lends her his waterproof [[wikipedia:Radio clock|radio-controlled watch]], which sets itself at 5 AM and 5 PM every day according to radio transmitters. Suddenly, they hear a strange loud sound. Fumitada explains that it was just the sound of the pumping system operating, however, Conan wonders whether that was really the case.

The participants are guided into the ship's [[Wikipedia: Operations room|Combat Information Center]] (CIC), where they are to witness a simulated anti-air combat. However, after having "shot down" the two set-up targets, the guards continue to detect a sonar response. An unidentified target of unknown nationality slowly approaches the ship. The tactical action officer quickly reports this to their captain, Yukio Tateishi, who orders them to search for the target, before heading to the CIC himself. Following him is a female [[wikipedia:Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force|Self-Defense Force]] (SDF) member, Nanami Fujii. The civilian participants are generally impressed by the realistic and tense atmosphere of the training, only Conan realizes that they're truly under attack. Yukio instructs the crews to prepare for an anti-submarine combat. They decide to fire a torpedo towards the unknown object. The ship is slightly hit with the shockwave caused by the impact. Conan then notices a sick boy with no accompanying adult. The crews are relieved that their target is nothing but a shipwreck. Fumitada announces to the participants that the "exercises" are now over.

==== Meeting Yuuki and Nanami ====
The participants arrive at the deck during free time. Conan sees the boy from before, who is called "Yuuki-kun" by a man nearby. Conan wonders if the man is Yuuki's father, and finds it suspicious that he didn't notice the shock, and wouldn't show himself until after the free time had started. He decides to follow the two, only to be stopped by Kogoro. Conan then notices Nanami Fujii, who's also on the deck at the time. Conan borrows Mitsuhiko's camera and begs Nanami to take a group photo with them, attempting to get a close-up shot of her. When asked about her specific work on the ship, Nanami answers that she only cooks everyone's meal, a lie that Conan can easily perceive due to her captain-ranked insignia. Before Nanami leaves, Kogoro reaches for one of his flashy business card as he wants to hand it to her himself. Unfortunately, the detective's clumsiness causes the cards to fly all around them. They pick the cards up and give them to Ran.

Conan borrows Mitsuhiko's camera again and runs off to a corner. He gives Agasa a call via the satellite-phone and asks him to investigate Nanami basing on the picture that he sent to Haibara, specifically from which department does the SDF member come from. The ship crews detect a satellite transmission from where Conan was calling Agasa. They suspect that "X" is among the civilians. Conan then sees some crew members checking his previous hiding spot. He wonders whether they have found out about the call, or it was actually something else.

==== Discovering the arm and its owner ====
Conan plans to chase after the crew members with the excuse of "going to the toilet", but Ran doesn't trust him and suggests that the two go together. On the way, Ran mentions that she almost got lost earlier, which reminds Conan that Ran isn't always good with directions. He remembers the time when Ran also got lost at [[Tropical Land]]. However, she wasn't afraid of getting lost again, because she knew that Shinichi would always find her, as he's a great detective; to which Shinichi replied: "Don't you worry! I'll always find you, wherever you are."

Unsurprising to Conan, Ran gets lost again as their path was blocked with a forbidden sign. Suddenly, they hear a scream coming from a room beyond the limit. Upon arriving, they see a human arm wearing SDF's Lieutenant uniform on the table. They advise the crew members to consult Kogoro.

In Osaka, [[Heiji Hattori]] gets a call from Conan, who informs him of the situation. He, together with [[Kazuha Toyama]], heads off to Maizuru. The ship crews detect Conan's satellite signal again but don't find any transmitter. It is then that he learns of the person with the code name "X". Unfortunately, Conan's phone rings again as he receives a call from Agasa, who's about to inform him that their search for Nanami didn't find any match. However, he manages to hide before the crew members discover him. Conan then looks for a different method of communication, and he comes across a room with strong magnetic field.

Meanwhile, inside the bridge, Hotaka's Captain Yukio Tateishi and Captain Makoto Sekiguchi from the Wakasa Military Police discuss the case with Kogoro and Ran. Kogoro deduces that the arm wasn't cut off by a sharp blade and was removed post-mortem. As it was found inside the pumping system's filter, they conclude that the arm was sucked in by the pumping system and got stuck in the filter, making the loud sound from earlier. Yukio hesitantly reveals that the arm probably belongs to Lt. Sasaura from the Wakasa base, whose whereabouts is currently unknown. Kogoro agrees with this assumption after seeing that his clock stopped at 5:30 AM that morning. According to Yukio, Sasaura wasn't in that day's shift. As the pumping system was started when they left Maizuru Harbor, Sasaura's body must have already drifted at the time. Fearing that it would be too late for an autopsy when they get back, Conan hints that they use the helicopter to transport the arm, pretending that it's only a demonstration. Kogoro then informs [[Inspector Megure]] of the case, not knowing that Nanami is watching nearby.

Conan and Ran encounter Yuuki when they come to watch the "demonstration", and notice that his father is missing again. Yuuki doesn't want to let Ran tell the crews about his situation and attempts to run away before dropping some medicines for food allergies. Just as he's about to leave, Yuuki's father appears. Conan comes to the magnetic room and contacts Agasa, in order to avoid being discovered. Haibara tells him about her discovery. Meanwhile, at a shipyard in Wakasa Bay, Heiji and Kazuha find Sasaura's body. Heiji notices a red stain on Sasaura's neck and secretly retrieves it.

==== Initial investigation ====
[[File:M17 Heiji's theory.jpg|left|250px|thumb|Heiji's conclusion.]]
Inspector Megure, [[Miwako Sato]], [[Wataru Takagi]] and two officers from Wakasa Coast Guard, Masaaki Kurata and Tsutomu Munekawa, arrive at the ship in a helicopter. Heiji informs Conan that he's found the body at Wakasa Bay. He surmises that Sasaura drifted there after having his arm swallowed at Maizuru Harbor. After hearing about the red stain, Conan asks Heiji to meet up with Agasa.

[[File:M17 Police's theory.gif|right|250px|thumb|The police's theory on what happened to the body.]]
While the civilians are having lunch, the police suggest an investigation on the ship, considering that the victim might have been sucked into the pump before she ship departed. Conan follows them to the deck, where they find Sasaura's phone. The last email was after 9 PM and the last call was at 5:30 AM. According to the autopsy, his death was between 4 AM and 6 AM and the cause of death is drowning, which means that he was on the ship before falling into the sea at 5:30 AM. Kogoro deduces that Sasaura had a fight with someone on the deck and was eventually pushed down. This also confirms that his body was stuck in the filter before the departure, and the arm was severed when they left Maizuru Harbor. Sato finds an empty microSD slot on the phone. Kogoro thinks that the card was the culprit's target. Conan then sees Nanami spying on the investigation and gives chase.

==== Nanami's mission and spy "X" ====
Nanami enters the captain's office and checks the content of the microSD card stolen from Sasaura's phone. Conan imitates the captain's voice to trick her out of the room. Conan finds out that she hasn't completely deleted the extracted data and attempts to copy them into the new USB flash drive on his watch. However, Nanami realizes that she was tricked and quickly makes her way back to the office, Conan is thus unable to retrieve all of the data. She wonders why X is interested in the data. To uncover her true identity, Conan deliberately sends the data to Agasa from within the room, creating a detectable satellite signal.

The police arrive at the captain's office. They demands that Nanami explain herself, but Yukio and Makoto refuse to cooperate. Conan then comes out and innocently points out all of the contradictory facts about Nanami, forcing her to reveal herself as a member of the Intelligence Security Command. Due to the incident with the foreign boat, they suspect that the spy X, whose target is believed to be classified intel on Aegis Destroyers, might be on board. It's also revealed that the victim was the Director of Intelligence for the Wakasa SDF base. His duty was to guard information on Aegis Destroyers. Because of this, they suspect that X was the killer. Conan wonders why Nanami doesn't talk about the card. He plants a bug on Kogoro before running off.

==== Investigation on the victim ====
Conan asks Heiji, who's now inside Agasa's car, about the red stain. They learn that it's [[wikipedia:Anti-fouling paint|anti-fouling paint]], a special paint used for ships. Conan asks them to check if the paint was from Hotaka. Heiji says that there is no current that could've sent the victim's body from Maizuru Harbor to Wakasa Bay. Conan then asks about the data from earlier, about which Agasa reveals that it's indeed a data of Aegis Destroyers, and was copied from a cloud service. If they have the ID and password, they can get the original data from the cloud. Conan wonders why would Sasaura store such important data on a public cloud service. He instructs Agasa to access the cloud data and send it to the captain's office.

Back in the captain's office, Kogoro asks Inspector [[Fumimaro Ayanokoji]], who's just arrived, to share the result of his investigation. Having investigated the victim's actions before his death, Fumimaro reveals that at 5:30 AM, Sasaura was waving a Japanese flag on a cliff at Maizuru Harbor, as witnessed by a crew member of a sightseeing cruise nearby. He then asks Makoto about the interrogation of Sasaura, but Nanami doesn't let the latter answer. Luckily, Agasa sends the data as instructed, forcing Makoto to reveal that data about the ships have been leaked by Sasaura, and sent to a shell company of a spy called Takekawa. This, together with the suspicious boat, indicates that a spy from the same country as Takekawa attempted to board this ship with the victim's help. It also explains Nanami's motive for taking the memory card. Nanami contacts her superior, and learns that Takekawa has been spotted in Kyoto. His plan is to meet up with X, who's currently on board. They then work together to track down Takekawa.

==== Takekawa's whereabouts and the truth behind the shipwreck ====
Components from the same country as the ones in the foreign boat was found on the shipwreck. As the sailing route of the ship was changed from right to left that morning and only people from the Wakasa base knew about this, X wouldn't have known the true direction to send out the shipwreck. However, the flag that Sasaura waved turns out to be a signal flag, the purpose of which was to inform X of the change. Nanami becomes suspicious of Conan's knowledge.

Takekawa was spotted at 12:03 PM in Ponto Town Park (Kyoto), where he's shown dropping something into a trash can. Conan asks Heiji to go to the park before the police do. At 12:10 PM, Takekawa got on an express train to Osaka. They then ask the Osaka Police to cooperate.

Heiji manages to catch up before the police arrive and takes a photo of Takekawa's burned memo.

Back at the cafeteria, Conan revises the whole case and realizes X's motive for sending the shipwreck. Unexpectedly, Nanami approaches him and questions about his identity. Without telling her the truth, Conan drops his façade and directly asks Nanami whether there is any kind of data that can only be obtained on the ship. Nanami confirms his theory and says that the only two places where such data can be found are the CIC and captain's office. Conan deduces that during the emergency, the captain had to come to the CIC; that's when X made his move in the captain's office. He now realizes who X is and quickly runs off, with Nanami and Ran chasing behind. Makoto then informs Nanami that they spotted Takekawa at Yodoyabashi Station (Osaka). Conan tells Heiji to go after him, while he confronts X himself.

==== X's true identity ====
<spoiler>
'''The man who claims to be Yuuki Amemiya's father''' is spy X. Conan tells Yuuki to hide away before exposing that the man's not his real father. X attempts to silence Conan, but then flees because there are two many civilians on the deck. Conan gives chase, but Yuuki, fearing about his real father's safety, intervenes. Meanwhile, after examining the picture of Takekawa's burned memo, Heiji concludes that Takekawa will come to Senshu Airport (now known as Kansai International Airport). He reports this to Inspector [[Goro Otaki]].

Conan tells the police that Yuuki's father vanished at Maizuhu Harbor, where Yuuki was forced to board with a strange man. Because Conan also remembers X's face, they invite him to check the camera footage. The Osaka police head to Kansai Airport in chase of Takekawa.

X destroys the footage before Conan can locate him. Yuuki wants to help them catch X, so Fumitada goes together with him, only to be assaulted by the spy. X takes Yuuki to the deck and are spotted by Ran, who's looking for Conan. Yuuki tells Ran about X's true identity. Ran fights X, but is eventually defeated and thrown into the sea.

At Kansai Airport, Kazuha spots Takekawa and tries to catch him. She chases him to a dead end. Takekawa shoots Kazuha, but Heiji jumps in and takes the bullet for her. Luckily, Otaki arrives just in time to stop Takekawa. Kazuha cries even though Heiji's not fatally wounded.

[[File:M17 dragging.gif|thumb|250px|What really happened to the body.]]
Meanwhile, Yuuki leads the police to X. While Miwako and the others chase X, Conan instructs Nanami to ambush on the deck. X takes a crew member hostage. Conan tells Nanami to rotate the cannon anticlockwise. Before X manages to escape, Conan uses the setting to kick a ball at him.

After the two spies are captured, they discover a suspicious voice-mail sent by Sasaura to Takekawa, which was recorded at 5:30 AM. Conan hears sounds of waves, some metallic clicking sounds and a man's voice in the record. Agasa calls him to inform that the paint wasn't from Hotaka, but from a sightseeing cruise, which left Maizuru Harbor and passed by Wakasa Shipyard. Conan deduces that the victim's body was dragged along the cruise from Maizuru Harbor to Wakasa Harbor. After revising all of the evidences, Conan realizes he has been misled.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
Sasaura's death was an '''accident'''. He slipped into the ocean and drowned after being chased by '''Masaaki Kurata''', who thought he was someone suspicious.
{{InfoBox Evidence|
'''Direct evidences:'''
* The person who stole the card was '''Nanami''', not X, which means that X has no clear motive to kill Sasaura, who's supposed to be his accomplice.
* The time when the victim's watch stopped, his last phone call, the voice-mail record, and the sightseeing cruise staff witnessed him waving a flag on a cliff at Maizuru Harbor all match with his estimated time of death: '''5:30 AM'''. This clearly indicates that Sasaura fell from the cliff itself, not from Hotaka.
** The same sightseeing cruise, not Hotaka, dragged his body all the way to Wakasa Harbor further proves that he was never on the ship.
** It also shows that the last location of his phone would be near the cliff, not on the ship.
* Nobody noticed '''the phone''' despite being left at a very obvious place. This shows that it hadn't been on the ship since the victim died, but was actually brought recently from the real "crime scene" after they departed, during midday. Masaaki was one of the people who had the chance to do this.
* '''The metallic sound''' heard in the record was the sound made when an expandable baton and a gun bump into each other, both of which Masaaki is wearing. He's the only one to patrol near Maizuru Harbor at the time.

'''Other hints:'''
* At the beginning of the movie, Masaaki is already shown running down the cliff in hurry for some unknown reasons, despite not having even seen the suspicious boat yet. He was trying to find Sasaura at the time, who had just fallen into the sea.
