	* The house is not abandoned, but rather hides the dead mansion owner's wife and son, Akio.		The house is not abandoned, but rather hides the dead mansion owner's wife and son, Akio. '''Akio''' killed his father with a single blow to the head. Unlike many other suspects, Akio had actually intended to turn himself in as soon as he could, but his mother decided to protect him. Her "protection", however, meant locking Akio in the basement until the statute of limitations for the murder expired and he couldn't be prosecuted. He tried to convince his mother otherwise but she was so desperate to not lose her son and apparently her only living relative, that she wouldn't listen to his pleas. Eventually, as she loses it and attempts to kill the children for snooping in the now abandoned home, Akio manages to stop his mother and insists that he should atone for his crime. With Conan's help, this time he is successful, and both mother and son turn themselves in together.
