Plot
Conan concludes from the above evidence that Kenzo, Akira, and Masami are the 10 billion yen bank robbers; after Akira killed Kenzo, Masami must have killed Akira and then left with the money. Confirming that Akira's death was recent, Conan remembers the woman on the elevator, who had the right number of similarly shaped cases and looked similar to Masami. Conan races in pursuit, followed by Ran, who gets them a taxi to follow Masami's taxi from the hotel to the docks. As they go, Conan mentally berates himself for not having realized that Masami's oddly grown-up look indicated a rushed disguise, and Kenzo's shock was at being found by the partners he'd back-stabbed. Ran and Conan lose Masami at the docks, but continue looking desperately.
Meanwhile, Masami meets with Gin and Vodka, who call her Akemi Miyano. She asks why the "sleeping pills" she'd been given to dose Akira with apparently killed him, to which Gin replies that such is their way and then asks where the money is. Akemi refuses to reveal the location without them giving up her sister, since she'd done the job on the condition that the two of them could leave after. Gin answers that her sister, as a "top brain" in the organization, is too indispensable to have ever considered giving up. Akemi refuses Gin offer of one last chance to reveal the money cache.
Conan and Ran catch up to Akemi just as she falls from being shot, with the only evidence that anyone else had been present is the gun on the ground nearby. Ran goes to call the ambulance and the police and guide them back to the scene, leaving Conan trying to save Akemi until he silently realizes from the sheer amount of blood on his hands that it's too late. As a result, when Akemi recognizes him and asks how he knew where she was, he tells her the truth of the transmitter and his deduction. He answers her shocked inquiry about his identity with the truth of Shinichi Kudo, as well, and she tells him about how the organization behind her death wears black, like crows. With her last words, she tells Conan where to find the money and begs him to retrieve it before the organization can get it. She dies just as Ran returns with help. Only her fingerprints are found on the gun, and after the money is recovered the police conclude that she killed herself from the guilt of her apparent crimes. Conan is the only one who knows otherwise, and he swears to someday pull the men in black out of the darkness.
