 * The evidence that proves Kisaragi's crime is hidden in his cane: the '''first necklace''' that Mio wore. Conan noticed strange sound coming from the can after the murder, meaning that Kisaragi had hidden something inside it.
-== Motive ==
+=== Motive ===
 Kisaragi concedes and confesses: he committed all three murders for the sake of Mount Fuji. For ten years, he always climbed a hill just outside of Nishitama City to paint the mountain. When old age caught up with him, he built a house on top of the hill to keep enjoying his favourite perspective of Mount Fuji when he painted, a view that was ruined by the Twin Towers which split the mountain in half, thus he murdered Mio and planned to murder Hara in vengeance for their involvement in constructing the towers, and Oki for approving the towers' construction plan. The broken sake cup was a reference to his now spoiled view of Mount Fuji. He left an unbroken sake cup at the third crime scene because the serial cases had already ended, and that Mio's body provided the same symbolism as she was hung in front of his painting, dividing the mountain the same way.
 With all of his crimes exposed, Kisaragi tries to commit suicide by poison, which he originally intended to do so after he had succeeded in his goal, but is tranquilized by Conan with his watch, stating that as a detective he cannot allow Kisaragi to commit suicide as he must pay for his own sin.
-== Aftermath ==
+=== Aftermath ===
 Ai, who listened to Conan's deduction, asks when Conan became suspicious of Kisaragi. Conan says he noticed the Twin Towers seemingly splitting Mount Fujii in two when they got out of Asahino Station and that he wondered why Kisaragi had his blinds drawn even though his house supposedly offered a perfect view of the mountain.
