Nightmare Escape
File 1 - Part 1
Richard is at a hotel having his picture taken with fans by mystery magazine editor Yutaka Nanbara, much to Rachel and Conan’s dismay. Beside Yutaka is the beautiful Miwako Najima, a recent college graduate and mystery writer. She plans to celebrate her graduation with friends later on and excuses herself to go get her manuscript to give to Yutaka.
On the 5th floor of the hotel, Miwako walks into her room to find a mysterious person, represented by the traditional black humanoid, going through her laptop. Miwako, apparently knowing the individual, shows them that it is too late if they were looking to tamper with her transcript, shocking the individual. She has named her project, Nightmare Escape, and further explains that she changed some details in her manuscript as to not involve anyone she knew.
Miwako also shows a number of floppy disks containing police investigations and past crimes which she uses as research to give her stories and future novels more depth and realism. After Miwako realizes she is late turning her manuscript in, the individual takes a floppy disk and throws it out the window, causing Miwako to look over the balcony of her room. The individual creepingly grins, walks up on Miwako and grabs her by the ankle, causing Miwako to dangerously tilt forward …
While downstairs, Richard is talking with Yukata when suddenly Miwako’s terror filled scream is heard. The group looks outside to see Miwako’s lifeless body laying on the ground, her head laying in a pool of her blood. The killer makes their way to Miwako’s laptop and begins deleting her manuscript and wiping the keyboard with a cloth. They walk out, noticing three women nearby.
An investigation is launched into Miwako’s death and a saddened Yutaka proclaims that she committed suicide, though Richard isn’t ready to come to that conclusion yet. Inside Miwako’s room, they discover her laptop. Conan manages to recover a deleted file entitled “Nightmare Escape” from the laptop’s trash bin. It had been deleted at exactly 2:33, and Miwako’s death was approximately at 2:30, meaning someone had tampered with the laptop after Miwako was killed. An indention is found near the chair. Three women are interviewed as they were standing near Miwako’s room and all three did not see anything or anyone, with the exception of the bell girl, go in and out at the time of the crime.
Three suspects are named: the hotel manager, Higashida, and two of his employees, the bell girl Shizuko Nishioka and hotel valet Toshiaki Kitagami. Their alibis and movements before, during, and after the crime are thoroughly checked. Higashida explains that there were no other guests on the 5th floor. Toshiaki and Shizuko were making beds and preparing rooms on opposite ends, and both state that they never went inside Miwako’s room. When a floppy disk outside in the bushes is discovered and one missing from Miwako’s collection is noted, Conan begins to suspect that Miwako’s brutal death was the product of foul play, but heavy hitting questions linger in the mind of the young determined detective: “Who else was in Miwako’s room, what could have made the imprint on the floor, and if truly a murder, how did the killer get out and away without being detected?”
File 2 - Part 2
A quick examination of Miwako’s corpse reveals no signs of an immediate struggle. The only signs of injury are those most likely sustained from the fall. There were no other traumatic injuries to report, further cementing the theory that Miwako jumped to her own death. When no fingerprints were found on the keyboard of Miwako’s laptop, suspicions begin to arise that someone wiped it clean.
A floppy disk is found in a tree underneath the balcony. Conan notices a mysterious figure roaming around the hotel apparently in search of something. The figure looks up at Conan when he calls out but leaves soon after. The floppy disk is recovered and analyzed. On it is the contents of Nightmare Escape, a story based on true events which follows a criminal couple on the run after they deceived an elderly man out of his fortune. While the couple was never arrested, the story focuses heavily on the psychological state of the two after their crime. At the end of the story, the criminal is revealed to be a hotel employee, having adopted a disguise to cover their tracks.
Conan asks a question to one of the women who was near Miwako’s room when was killed. He goes and accidentally bumps into Shizuko and asks her if he could see her make a bed, to which she replies that all the rooms are done. Conan drops the idea and a police officer walks in to announce that another set of fingerprints besides Miwako’s was found on the floppy disk.
