Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are enjoying their time at the Historic Fudo Falls Inn and Resort, located on the shores of Fudo Lake in the gently rolling hills of northern Japan. During their stay, Kogoro encounters award-winning author Miyabi Shoko, who is enjoying fame from her previous work but is also suffering from exhaustion. Along with Miyabi are her two companions: magazine editor Katsuya Otaka and Kanaya Chisato.
Miyabi is currently working the finishing touches to her latest story while Katsuya states that he chose Fudo Inn for Miyabi to work in a peaceful environment. She states that Katsuya had alternative motives for bringing her here which was to cut her times to rest and play and just focus on her work. Katsuya offers her to go on an hour-long hike through the hills. Walking on the trail for an hour will lead one to the beautiful Fudo Falls. She asks Kogoro’s group to join them, to which they accept. Katsuya asks that everyone meet at the dock by one o’clock where he has a boat waiting for them.
The group meets as planned and they trek from the inn to Fudo Falls in roughly an hour. Kogoro, Conan, and Ran head for the boat dock on the lake while Katsuya and Miyabi venture off on their own. Kogoro asks Kanaya if they have a romantic connection to which she claims no knowledge of. Katsuya rejoins the group soaking wet, but without Miyabi. They ask for her whereabouts but Katsuya claims to have fallen in the creek and walked in a different direction while Miyabi walked off on her own. They search for her, believing she is nearby, but to no avail.
Kanaya states that Miyabi has a tendency to leave abruptly without telling anyone, even at parties, but her behavior has been unsettling since they arrived. Katsuya insists that they continue on with the boat ride believing Miyabi went back to her hotel room and is sleeping; all agree. With everyone onboard, the boat’s rim sits very close to the lake’s surface. Kanaya snaps pictures of everyone on the boat.
After the boat ride through Fudo Lake, everyone returns back to the docks and heads back inside the hotel expecting to find Miyabi, but she herself is nowhere to be found. Kanaya goes to Miyabi’s room and finds it empty. Believing she may be in the back, Kanaya exits the back door and makes a grisly discovery. She screams, causing the others to rush to her aid. They find Miyabi’s semi-surmerged lifeless body in the open air bath covered in bloody water.

=== File 4 ===
A highly disturbed Kogoro takes charge and goes to investigate, noticing a bloody sharp straight razor blade near the bath. He pulls Miyabi’s arm out of the water and discovers cuts to her wrists, coming to the conclusion that Miyabi did herself in. Kogoro commands Ran to call the police as Kanaya breaks down in tears over Miyabi’s sudden death. Kogoro examines the body and states that Makayla had been deceased for a little over an hour. Around that time, everyone was on the boat riding around Lake Fudo. That’s when it is believed that Miyabi came back to the inn after returning from the waterfall, and she tragically took her own life.
 
The belief that Miyabi committed suicide is a rather confusing statement in itself. Although she was suffering from epilepsy and writer’s block, nothing warranted a dramatic event as this. Miyabi was invited by Katsuya to give her a change of scenery and pace, but not even he could have thought that it would turn out this way.
 
Ran returns with news that the police has been delayed in arriving on the scene due to the sudden landslide that’s blocking their only entrance. Kogoro remains in control of the case as Conan notices something odd with the clothes baskets and slippers in front of the door of Miyabi’s room. The clothes Conan changed out of have disappeared. The clothes and shoes that Miyabi wore aren’t present either. Conan wonders if Miyabi could have came outside bare naked but Kogoro strongly disagrees. Kogoro now believes that Miyabi’s life wasn’t taken of her own accord, but by someone else’s and was made to look like suicide.
 
Both Katsuya and Kanaya deny any involvement in Miyabi’s death. Katsuya states that everyone was together when they met at Fudo Falls. Moreover, according to Kogoro himself, Miyabi’s time of death was a little more than an hour ago, during which, everyone was in the middle of Fudo Lake on the boat. There is, given the circumstances, no way that one could have murdered Miyabi and returned to the inn, body in hand, without avoiding detection.
 
Kogoro points out that while everyone was together for a while, they also had some free time. Katsuya, now bearing a confident grin, was the last person to see Miyabi alive as they both ventured deeper into the woods. Kogoro begins applying pressure on Katsuya, flat out accusing him of murdering Miyabi at the waterfall, took her corpse to the inn, and dumped her body in the open air bath while making it look like a suicide. Conan waits for the bombshell as Katsuya not only denies again, but also states that it is impossible.


== Disguise Suicide ==
Kanaya is quietly removed from Kogoro’s suspect list as tensions between him and Katsuya continue to rise. Katsuya states that he is innocent of all wrongdoing Kogoro is accusing him of because it would take one hour to walk from Fudo Inn to Fudo Falls, two hours on a round trip. Even by use of a boat through Fudo Lake, the waterfall to the inn is 30 minutes to and an hour tops back, and Katsuya was never seen carrying a corpse in his hands. Kogoro is left temporarily speechless.


=== File 5 - Part 1 ===
Katsuya taunts Kogoro for not noticing the routes and questions his status as a great detective, causing him to grow more frustrated by the second. With all his basis covered, Kogoro has no choice but to remove Katsuya remove from the suspect list as well, but Conan believes that he is the killer. Accepting the proposal and challenge laid before him, Conan calls Katsuya’s moves excellent, while thinking to himself how he will expose the method and him as the cold blooded monster he truly is as Kogoro and Katsuya close out File 5 with an intense stare down.


=== File 6 - Part 2 ===
=== File 6 - Part 2 ===
The standoff between Kogoro and Katsuya, the freshly crowned prime suspect in the brutal death of novelist Miyabi Shoko, comes to a close as Katsuya maintains his innocence. Katsuya states that he was alone for 30 minutes and it would take one person an hour to walk from Fudo Falls to the resort by foot and 30 minutes by boat through the lake. Kogoro claims that Katsuya used some bike and stashed in the mountains where Katsuya challenges him to go find it. Conan sneaks off to speak with the innkeeper.
Conan finds Katsuya’s confidence offense, as opposed to him feeling sadden over Miyabi’s death just moments prior. Granted that it isn’t a good feeling to be accused of murder, but Katsuya’s character and demeanor has changed to that of an arrogant and cocky person, almost as if had been planned in advance. Katsuya was definitely with the rest of the group and he was seen carrying no corpse in his hands, that is a cold hard fact.
If a random person killed Miyabi out in the woods, why was it important to bring the corpse back to the resort? That poses a risk of getting caught then arrested. Why not just dump the corpse into Lake Fudo and called it a day. If Katsuya is the killer, he had to have murdered Miyabi somewhere else, meaning the crime scene at her open-air bath was a lie and somewhere else, most likely Fudo Falls which was Miyabi’s last known location. Nevertheless, the body still made its way back to the resort.
Conan sees Miyabi’s body laying on the floor with a bedsheet covering most of it with the exception of her hair. He notices something caught in the hair which turns out to be algae, an aquatic plant of a large group that includes the seaweeds and many single-celled forms. Conan detects no algae growing in the open air bath where Miyabi was found. The only known source of algae is the menacing Lake Fudo itself. Believing there more to be found, Conan lifts the sheet up and finds marks on Miyabi’s hands and her feet. Kanaya walks nearby and Conan asks to see her digital camera. Kogoro walks around the corner and grabs Conan, believing he is bothering Kanaya, and the two go outside toward the boat dock. As Kogoro scolds Conan for being a “nusiance” and turns his back, Conan tranquillizes him as the waters of Lake Fudo ripple gently from the breeze. Kogoro unconsciously falls into position as Conan returns to the group and tells everyone that Kogoro has solved the case and demands that everyone get to the boat dock so he can explain his theory.
<spoiler> With everyone present in regards to this vicious murder, Conan, by way of Kogoro’s voice, lays down his theories.
*Introduction to the Final Act.
The keys in unlocking the truth to the mystery is to revisit Lake Fudo, its surrounding area, Miyabi herself, the people she was with, and their actions and behavior because it all plays apart before the crime, the crime itself, as well as what happened after. To clear the air of doubt and confusion, it had been a mistake to even think that Katsuya could make a round trip across the lake and back with Miyabi’s corpse in tow and everyone in full view; that indeed is impossible. This is actually what Katsuya wanted everyone, especially Kogoro, to think; that he somehow murdered Miyabi by the waterfall, then went back and brought her corpse to the inn for it to be discovered.
*Surveying the Playing Field.
Naturally speaking, there are two routes from the inn to the falls: the main trail which takes an hour to complete, two hours
roundtrip, and through the lake by use of the boat, which is a 30 minute ride one way, and a one hour trip back. There are no hidden shortcuts.
*The Revelation.
If Miyabi was murdered in this lakeside resort, Kanaya and Katsuya would no doubt make the suspect list, however, by process of elimination, Kanaya would be ruled out and free to go. Katsuya, on the other hand, would become public enemy number one because Miyabi was with him before her demise. The body was discovered within a 10 minute time frame of arriving at the inn after the boat ride on the lake. With these factors in play, it is safe to believe that the crime itself took place within the 30 minute boat ride between Kamiya Falls, and the resort. After a thorough investigation in the death of novelist Miyabi Shoko, it has been determined that she was murdered, and Miyabi’s killer is '''Katsuya Otaka'''.
*The Dismantling.
The group was together, Conan, Ran, Kogoro, Kanaya, and Katsuya, EXCEPT for the 30 minutes that Katsuya separated. If anyone had any sense, it was during that time that Miyabi was murdered, right there at Fudo Falls. Now how her corpse got back to the open-air bath at the resort is where the real fun begins. She actually rode with the group, no one noticed it until now. Miyabi’s corpse took a ride on the boat along with everyone else, her seat—was under the boat.
*The Devil makes Its Move.
Starting from the top, after the group broke into two and went different ways, Katsuya waited for the others to be out of earshot and sight, and brutally murdered the poor defenseless Miyabi along the banks of the river that feeds into Lake Fudo. He got to the boat dock where the boat was waiting and tied Miyabi’s corpse to the bottom of it using thin wires and hooks on the side of the boat. After securing Miyabi’s dead body to the bottom of the boat, Katsuya put the boat back to its original resting position in the lake and then approached Kogoro’s group from the back with an innocent expression and a lousy excuse to explain why he was soaked from head to toe saying he slipped in the water.
*Fooling the Sheep.
With the group on the boat, and Miyabi secured to the bottom of it, Katsuya sat sails back to the resort as if nothing had happened. Although while true that a round trip from the inn to the waterfalls would take considerable time, it ''NEVER'' happened. Orlando never went back to the waterfalls because there was no need. ''He brought Makayla’s corpse back with the rest of the group on the first AND only trip back to the resort''.
*Suicide for Sale.
Once back at the resort, Katsuya was the last one to enter inside and remained outside until everyone was in. He recovered Miyabi’s corpse from under the boat and dragged it to the open air bath in hee resort room where it would later be found. Katsuya chose the open air bath because Miyabi’s corpse had been in the lake underneath the boat. An autopsy report will reveal that Miyabi did indeed drown with water from Lake Fudo in her lungs, not water from her bath. As if the unfortunate Miyabi didn’t suffer enough, Katsuya grabbed a straight razor and slit her wrist, leaving it behind in an attempt to sell her death as a suicide; at first glance, he succeeded in the purchase, but now refunds are demanded.
*The Little Things that make a Big Difference.
In the midst of staging the scene, Katsuya planned to change out of his soaking wet clothes but had forgotten to prepare dry ones for his return. He couldn’t have just dumped them in the clothes basket, pretty much why Conan and Miyabi’s clothes, also her shoes, went missing. Katsuya asks for evidence, and Conan, still through Kogoro, points out the marks on Miyabi’s hands and wrists that was slightly bound by wires. Someone who is thinking of suicide wouldn’t have such marks on their feet. Also, there was a strand of algae, seaweed to be exact, found in her hair, though no such aquatic plant species can be found growing in Miyabi’s open air bath. The only way Miyabi could have gotten seaweed in her hair is if she had been in close contact to the shore of Lake Fudo. The boat itself also had algae growing on it and, for some odd reason, built with metal fittings meant to hold fishing nets and rope. The owner and manager of the resort and boat has stated that he has no knowledge of the fittings.
*The Devil’s Chilling Laugh.
Katsuya menacingly laughs, asking for real evidence of him having tied a body to the bottom of the boat. Conan asks Kanaya to review the photo of the group on the boat shortly before taking off. When comparing the photo to their current situation now, the boat is closer to the water surface with a full load. In both instances, the boat held 4 people but yet at the waterfall, the boat was deeper than what it is now.
*Pictures Speak louder than Words.
That is because there was another object, exactly another person on the boat before everyone else got there; That person being the deceased Miyabi who everyone thought went back to the resort to rest. The innkeeper had already said that he gave Katsuya complete authority over the boat as long as he returned it in mint condition. This means, that Katsuya was in control and the only person who could have rigged the boat to his specifications. If they were to add a weight similar to Miyabi’s body, the boat will float closely to the surface of the water, exactly the same way in the photo.
*The Defeat of the Devil.
Devastated, Katsuya collapses onto the seat of the boat, tears flowing down his face uncontrollably. He confesses that he and Miyabi in fact had a romantic relationship, but things got complicated. What started out as a game quickly grew beyond his limitations which began threatening his own family and life. Conan, through Kogoro, denounces this, and correctly questions Katsuya if he is the one who broke and overstepped preexisting boundaries. Unable to answer, a rightfully defeated Katsuya is arrested by the waiting law enforcement officers and loaded into the squad car.
*A Simple Laugh and Closing Remarks.
With the case closed and Katsuya taken into custody, Ran attempts to wake her father Kogoro up to congratulate him on a fantastic performance. The boat’s uneven weight sends Kogoro overboard and into Lake Fudo, ending the arc on a lighthearted note.

File 5 - Part 1

Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are enjoying their time at the Historic Fudo Falls Inn and Resort, located on the shores of Fudo Lake in the gently rolling hills of northern Japan. During their stay, Kogoro encounters award-winning author Miyabi Shoko, who is enjoying fame from her previous work but is also suffering from exhaustion. Along with Miyabi are her two companions: magazine editor Katsuya Otaka and Kanaya Chisato.

Miyabi is currently working the finishing touches to her latest story while Katsuya states that he chose Fudo Inn for Miyabi to work in a peaceful environment. She states that Katsuya had alternative motives for bringing her here which was to cut her times to rest and play and just focus on her work. Katsuya offers her to go on an hour-long hike through the hills. Walking on the trail for an hour will lead one to the beautiful Fudo Falls. She asks Kogoro’s group to join them, to which they accept. Katsuya asks that everyone meet at the dock by one o’clock where he has a boat waiting for them.

The group meets as planned and they trek from the inn to Fudo Falls in roughly an hour. Kogoro, Conan, and Ran head for the boat dock on the lake while Katsuya and Miyabi venture off on their own. Kogoro asks Kanaya if they have a romantic connection to which she claims no knowledge of. Katsuya rejoins the group soaking wet, but without Miyabi. They ask for her whereabouts but Katsuya claims to have fallen in the creek and walked in a different direction while Miyabi walked off on her own. They search for her, believing she is nearby, but to no avail.

Katsuya insists that they continue on with the boat ride believing Miyabi went back to her hotel room and is sleeping; all agree.

Kanaya goes to Miyabi’s room and finds it empty. Believing she may be in the back, Kanaya exits the back door and makes a grisly discovery. She screams, causing the others to rush to her aid. They find Miyabi’s semi-surmerged lifeless body in the open air bath covered in bloody water.

Suicide?
Location: Miyabi’s Hot Springs Tub
Victim: Miyabi Shoko
Suspects: Katsuya Otaka and Kanaya Chisato
The missing Miyabi is soon found in her bloody hot springs tub, a rather grisly scene.

A highly disturbed Kogoro takes charge and goes to investigate, noticing a bloody sharp straight razor blade near the bath.
