=== Situation ===
Takagi is at the [[Mouri Detective Agency]] to thank him for a previous case when Detective Chiba tells him through a call that a man named Buchi wants to meet Takagi at Todoroki Park to return a favor with juicy information. However, a man named Iwabuchi Katsuya - apparently Buchi's real name - is found dead there with a note of a potential robbery that will be performed by three men wielding bear spray in Kameo Jewelry Store at 10 a.m of the next day.

{{InfoBox Crime

| image = EP1181 Case1.jpg
| location = Todoroki Park, Tokyo
| victim = Katsuya Iwabuchi
| age = 25 years old
| cause-death = Stab wound to the chest
| suspects = Three jewel robbers
| description = Apparently, Buchi was trying to inform Takagi about a potential robbery that would happen in Kameo Jewelry Store by three men wielding bear spray, so they became the main suspects
}}

However, the robbery does not occur at that store; it happens at a Jewelry Store in Tsurui City by those three, and every news outlet received an anonymous tip that the nose was leading the police. This could mean that the person giving an anonymous tip is one of those three, specifically the ringleader of the crime.

The police split up to investigate as usual. Takagi, Kogoro, and Conan go to the apartment of Katsuya’s friend, Kazuo Kamegamori. He tells them that half a month ago, Katsuya was terrified as someone was looking for him, and Katsuya was falsely accused of bicycle theft a year ago, which made him hate the police. So did Takagi do something special for him that the officer was an exception to?

| suspects-label = Culprits
| description = Every news outlet received an anonymous tip about the robbery, and the note fooled the police about the potential robbery. One notable detail is that the store being robbed is fairly easy to access.
}}

Takagi is asked to return to the station as they have led two suspicious individuals for interrogation. There, the two admit to having been hired by Masayoshi Daimatsu to perform the robbery, but not knowing about the murder. Some core information about Daimatsu is also provided:
* He was caught in a pawn robbery reported by an anonymous tip.
* He was released from custody half a month ago, the exact time Katsuya got terrified.
* He injured his leg whilst trying to escape from the police, and seemed to have hatred toward Megure, who caught him.

The police also find Daimatsu and confront him on the rooftop of a building, where Conan tranquilized Kogoro and begins his deduction as The Sleeping Kogoro.

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>
The fake jewelry robbery note was written by '''Masayoshi Daimatsu''' after killing Katsuya Iwabuchi, whom he assumed to have informed the police about his crime. It was meant to lead Inspector Megure and his subordinates into a robbery that never happened, while Daimatsu called for the press media to embarrass him. It is worth noting that Iwabuchi has never met Takagi, which explains why the latter couldn't recall anything about the man named Buchi, hence the favor.
</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* In the TV broadcast, a special Next Conan Hint and End Card are shown. The hint is [[TWILIGHT!!!]], and the end card shows silhouettes of members of [[King Gnu]], Conan, and Kogoro. It teases the band performing the [[One-eyed Flashback]] theme song on Yomiuri TV's ''Best Hits Kayosai 2025'', which will also feature an anime version, with Gosho Aoyama supervising the character design.

In the interrogation room, Takahiro Matoi tells the police that he could not recall a thing after he had drinks with the victim, Shiori Jojima, and two other colleagues.

{{InfoBox Crime

}}

Meanwhile, Conan and Haibara just arrive, as they are asked by the Detective Boys to help find a cat for an old lady. While they are looking for it, they see Takagi and Chiba doing some kind of investigation. It turns out that the two are looking for a person that wore construction site uniform at the time where Matoi was drunk to confirm the alibi for him. The boys are also curious about what happened to Matoi, so they ask Takagi and Chiba, to which they tell that Matoi was drunk somewhere around the location the police and the boys are standing, and the man saw someone on the other side of a wall that is opposite to where he was sitting. However, the person is revealed to be '''Genta''' and '''Mitsuhiko''' standing on top of the sooner, as they were looking for the cat up in the wall for some reason.

But a case couldn’t end when the culprit of the murder is not yet revealed, so the kids split up into two groups to investigate: Conan goes with Ayumi and Matoi to the building where the murder occurred while Haibara goes with Genta and Mitsuhiko. After a preliminary site inspection at the room, Conan and Matoi come outside and see Ayumi talking to Madoka Jojima, Shiori’s sister who hates Matoi due to his unkempt lifestyle, and is suspecting him for murdering her sister.

After that, the group goes to see the company Shiori worked for, where Megure and another policeman are interrogating the two colleagues who drank with Matoi and Jojima the previous night, Shohei Yumura and Shigeki Natsuhara. There, Conan and Ayumi happen to know that someone in that company embezzled the money, and the two police assume that Shiori learned about who caused this and was silenced for that, the suspicion is further improved as Haibara’s group also learns about that embezzlement.

{{InfoBox Crime

| suspects = Shiori Jojima, Takahiro Matoi, Shigeki Natsuhara and Shohei Yumura

However, Haibara’s group couldn’t find anyone else in the convenience store where Matoi was in noticing his existence and the three raise doubt on him instead. But the doubt seems to suggest Conan something else about the truth of the murder as he suddenly causes the attention of Megure and the others.

<spoiler>
Shiori Jojima discovered that '''Shohei Yumura''' was the one to embezzle public funds and blackmailed him. Surprised by the victim's true nature, Yumura decided to follow and kill her, and put all the blame on Takahiro Matoi. Matoi sympathized with the culprit when he discovered the victim's true nature, but did not agree with his actions because taking someone's life for such personal reasons was unacceptable.

At dusk, Conan, Haibara, and the Detective Boys are sad because they still haven't found the cat, when suddenly it shows up under the chair that Ayumi and Conan are sitting on, making the Detective Boys very happy, but let’s not tell the kids that the cat actually went back to the house of the old lady that asked them to find it.

=== Situation ===
[[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]], and [[Genta Kojima|Genta]] happen to witness a quarrel taking place in front of an elderly actor selection venue, where two retired brothers, named Makio Yuida and Kozo Yuida respectively, were involved. To ascertain further details, the three [[Detective Boys]] visit Kozo and learn that Kozo was chosen to be the elderly actor immediately, which aroused Mitsuhiko to share some [[Sherlock Holmes]] "canon". He tells Kozo about the short story titled ''The Red-Headed League''. Accordingly, he suspects Kozo might be drawn into a gigantic fraud, which is similar to the Sherlock Holmes story. However, as they arrived at Kozo's home, nothing out of the ordinary was noticed. Kozo mentioned that he and his brother each had a teapot inherited from their father. Recently he received a letter expressing his desire to purchase both their teapots. Soon, Mitsuhiko noticed something odd in the letter: even though the return address was written to be in Kyoto, the post stamp was clearly from Tokyo.

[[File:EP1132-1.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Conan and Haibara perceive Detective Nakamura at their back.]]

At the same time, [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] and [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] were searching for the rest of the people, but encountered [[Detective Nakamura]] following Makio. When the Detective Boys liaised with each other, they inquired Makio about the teapot, yet were blasted away by him promptly. While leaving Makio's home, the Detective Boys met Ami Kimura, who was Makio's neighbour. She disclosed that Makio often talked about his journeys at the veranda, despite their unfamiliarity. Ayumi then noticed the cocoon on Kimura's hand, and the gloves in her pocket; as such, she surmised that Kimura is a mangaka.

Successfully, a serial robbery case happening persistently in second-hand stores caught their attention - importantly, the head of the robbery gang was still yet to be captured. Conan then notices [[Wataru Takagi|Detective Takagi]] and [[Kazunobu Chiba|Detective Chiba]], who are again on a [[List of anime-original series#Stakeout|stakeout]]. According to their observations, Makio is most likely the head of robbers. Mitsuhiko continued this deduction and speculated that his proceeding target is Kozo. The Detective Boys hurry to Kozo's house, but Kozo declares that he has just received another letter, and it also comes with a ticket to Kyoto.

[[File:EP1132-2.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Mitsuhiko following Kozo.]]

That night, Mitsuhiko discoveres Kozo was sneakily following Makio. They all saw Makio had opened the door of his apartment, but he then hesitated, and returned to his house immediately. Kozo was then instigated to contact his brother Makio. On the phone Makio discloses that "he needed money since he now '''depends 'on credit' to make a living''' (ツケで暮らしていて), and would approach Kozo '''in turn'''". Mitsuhiko notices something strange. Normally Makio calls Kozo by his name, but in the phone call, the appellation was changed to "younger brother" (弟); as such, Makio was trying to explain his relationship with Kozo. In addition to that, "Tsuke" (ツケ) is a terminology in ''the game of go'', meaning adjacent to the enemy. This suggests that Makio is in danger, so Detective Chiba goes to rescue him by heading upstairs.

Despite this, Makio was found beaten by the teapot in his home. He's left in a non-life-threatening condition. Meanwhile, Mitsuhiko runs towards the corridor of the buckwheat noodle restaurant and confronts the culprit.

{{EndBox}}

=== Resolution ===
<spoiler>Makio Yuida did not plan to rob his brother Kozo. In fact, '''Ami Kimura''' planned to rob Makio.

=== Culprit's Escape Route ===
[[File:EP1132-4.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Mitsuhiko unravelling the culprit's identity.]]
Kimura is the head of the robber gang, she intended to take Makio's home as her next target of robbing. Owing to the fact that she lives just right beside Makio's home, she formulated a path for escape to be used after she robs Makio. By entering Makio's home, she would only need to force-break the wall between the two rooms; when escaping, she destined to third floor by using the escape staircase located on the veranda, then by taking advantage of the empty room below Makio's home getting to second floor. Hence, she could arrive at the buckwheat noodle restaurant, she knew beforehand that the restaurant had not been operating during nighttime for many evenings; with the noisy construction sound established at the background, she could escape effortlessly.

=== All About Robbery ===
Being the head of robber gang, Kimura could not be a mangaka; conversely, the reason that she had gloves contained in her pockets was because that she did not want her fingerprints to be left elsewhere - if it was a real mangaka, the gloves would be stained slightly. Moreover, her necklace was a magnifying glass instead, to identify precious jewels; the cocoon on her finger was obviously caused due to her long-term use of the magnifying glass.

After hearing Mitsuhiko's deduction, Kimura was incensed and intended to grab Mitsuhiko as a hostage, but failed under the football ejected by Conan who arrived to draw a finale of this serial second-hand stores robbery case.

=== Aftermath ===
Prior to that, Conan had already confirmed the identity of the sender of that mysterious letter, it was in fact '''Makio Yuida'''.

[[File:EP1132-3.gif|thumb|center|250px]]

Within the letter, it was insinuated by the pseudonym of the sender: "伊尾木田真" (いおきだまゆ). By rearranging the order of the furigana characters we will go from {{red|I O KI DA MA YU}} to {{red|YUI DA MAKI O}} which is "結田槙夫" (ゆうだまきお), namely Makio Yuida. As a result, there were no such person proclaiming to "trade" teapots with the two of them, it was all made up by Makio, the reason was to invite Kozo to a trip to Kyoto. After this incident, Kozo and Makio could be able to treat honest to each other and enjoy the affection of being together.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
* The ''[[wikipedia:The Red-Headed League|The Red-Headed League]]'' is a [[Sherlock Holmes]] short story which was referenced in this episode.
* The landmarks Makio and Kozo visit in Kyoto are [[wikipedia:Kiyomizu-dera|Kiyomizu-dera]] and [[wikipedia:Heian Shrine|Heian-jingū]].
