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 Kamiya 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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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 Kamiya 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.
