== Case ==

=== Situation ===
Heiji and Kazuha visit Tokyo where the two part ways. A man is dead at the restaurant Kazuha is in, forcing Kogoro, Ran, Sera, Heiji, and Conan to investigate.

{{InfoBox Crime
| crime = Suicide?
| image = EP651_Case.jpg
| location = Danny's
| victim = Kengo Shibamiya
| cause-death = Cyanide poisoning
| suspects = Rakutoshi Sugai, Toru Amakasu, and Sanpei Toujou
| description = In the bathroom, Shibamiya is found dead from cyanide poisoning.
}}

The witness is Andre Camel who explains the victim's last words were a confession to a poisoning. Heiji reveals the victim was speaking in a Kansai dialect and the victim's actual words were referring to an unknown culprit as the poisoner. Realizing the culprit is still in the restaurant, the police narrow down the suspects to three people without their alibis. After Heiji is unable to trick the culprits into revealing their Kansai dialect, Conan arranges the three culprits to drink salty soup.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
'''Toru Amakasu''' is revealed to be the culprit after exclaiming the soup to be "karai" (辛い?, lit. "spicy"), a (somewhat incorrectly used) Kansai equivalent for the Tokyo dialect's "shoppai" (塩っぱい?, lit. "salty"). Another factor is the suffix "-sa" used in the Kansai dialect to finish sentences, a habit which Amakasu has maintained during the investigation. And when Conan blatantly changes his dialect during the presentation of the facts, Amakasu bursts out and identifies Conan's speech as a bad usage of the Kansai dialect, proving that he is really from the Kansai region. The fact that Heiji wasn't able to sort him out as the culprit was due to the fact that, as a native Kansai speaker, he is too used to his dialect's special quirks to discern its more subtle differences from the Tokyo dialect.

In addition, while acting as a left-hander, Amakasu is really right-handed, as the arrangement of his dishes easily proves. He had used his right hand to administer the poison to his victim and did not want to end up his own victim as well, even after cleaning his hand with a wet napkin usually served along with ramen (which is the reason why he had ordered ramen while the police checked the crime scene).

As it turns out, Amakasu is responsible for murdering his firm's manager in order to rob money from his office some time earlier, and Shibamiya, who had introduced Amakasu, a childhood friend, to his manager for employment, attempted to persuade him to surrender to the police. Amakasu decided to silence him, so he lured Shibamiya to the restaurant toilet and poisoned him.

After Amakasu is arrested, Andre and Jodie Starling examine a photo of Sera while noting their familiarity with her face, and to the surprise of Jodie and Camel, Black easily identifies the tomboyish Sera as a girl. Meanwhile, Heiji reveals his purpose of the visit was to take them to the house of deceased Kohei Wakamatsu after receiving a letter which challenges him to solve the murder.

{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}

In this one hour episode, some scenes are not from the manga version.
*In anime version, Kazuha scolded Heiji for making inconsiderate remarks about Camel while Ran thought silently to herself that Kazuha was being inconsiderate for saying out loud too.
*In anime version, the culprit tried to escape but Ran and Kazuha took him down. Sera was impressed by Kazuha's skills.

==Trivia==
There are several abnormalities, events, and scenes in the case that are worth noting. There are three instances where Ran's behavior implies she knows Conan is Shinichi. The first is that she references how Heiji and Shinichi only faced off each other once, but lately have been solving cases together. The wording is what is being called into the spotlight, because there are only 3-4 cases that they even meet up in total, while her words indicate they have met many more times on several occasions. As Heiji has shown clear interest in being with Conan, and has been solving cases with him, this implies she knows Conan is Shinichi or else her wording would be different. The second is when Heiji starts asking about the female detective sniffing around about Kudo. Neither Ran nor Sera correct him, which is especially odd for Ran since she should have found that strange. Sera has only been asking about Conan, not Shinichi, so the lack of a correction throughout the whole case indicates she knows he was referring to Conan when he said Kudo. Finally, when Ran asks to talk to Shinichi over Conan's phone and gets seemingly disappointed that he already hung up. However, she could have just easily called him with her own phone right there since she knew he was available, yet doesn't. This implies she might have just been putting on an act.

==People who know Conan is Sleeping Kogoro==

===Confirmed===

Everyone on the [[List of characters who know Conan's identity]] that is confirmed.

'''[[Jodie Starling]]'''
She knows about the Stun Gun Wrist Watch, and Voice Changing Bow Tie, and was aware Conan was the one doing the actual investigating since her introduction case. Any doubts about this should be immediately cleared up during the second case she was in, when she fully trusts Conan's plan and was clearly aware he was working on a way to resolve the situation from the beginning.

'''[[Agent Camel]]'''

'''[[James Black]]'''

'''[[Rei Furuya]]'''

'''[[Hyoue Kuroda]]'''

'''[[Inspector Yamato]]'''

'''[[Inspector Uehara]]'''

'''[[Inspector Morofushi]]'''

'''[[Kir]]'''

===Suspected/Likely/Unconfirmed===

'''The National Police Agency'''

'''[[Miwako Sato]]'''

'''The FBI'''

'''The CIA'''

'''Ran Mouri'''
'''
Inspector Otaki'''
His involvement in both the Tiger Scroll Case and the Koshien Bomber case at the very least should make him suspicious and knowledgable that Conan is incredibly intelligent, as he does not question how or why Conan was so involved with both cases. Additionally, he has been around them long enough to reason he sees their detective skills as equal. Additionally, Conan makes little to no effort to hide it from him.
