The soccer match rages on while the police scramble to organize their investigation with only thirty minutes left on the clock. Inspector [[Juzo Megure|Megure]] becomes increasingly desperate as his options gradually evaporate. [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] suggests reviewing the broadcast footage of when the culprit identified the undercover officers, believing the culprit must be scouring the crowd while on the phone. Unfortunately, after reviewing the footage, [[Wataru Takagi|Takagi]] states there is no such individual. Megure demands he check again, focusing on spectators operating a zoomable camera device. Kaneko's colleagues at the broadcast company then arrive with ¥100,000,000, only a tenth of the demanded total. As Megure and Kaneko brainstorm ways to deceive the culprits, Takagi relays Conan's previous theory, suggesting that the culprits had always intended to shoot someone with the ringing of the final whistle. After confirming from Kaneko that the caller has remained the same individual throughout their interactions, Conan infers that the caller's accomplice must have given his gun to the caller after initially shooting the ball since he did not possess the weapon when he picked up the money. The police frantically search the footage in an attempt to find the moment where the two culprits exchanged weapons. All eyes are glued to the screens as the second half's lost time begins. With no other options all Conan can do is pray, wishing time could stop. Seeing the boy's spiking anxiety, [[Ai Haibara|Haibara]] tells him to calm down, saying that "one cannot resist against the stream of time, and those who forcefully do are punished." As Conan is caught off guard by her words, he is distracted by the [[Detective Boys]] who appear to be focused on the match. However, they claim to be on task, only voicing their annoyance that the camera is repeated losing sight of the caller's accomplice as he traverses the stands. Taking notice, Conan figures out the caller's identity. With little time remaining, Megure deploys his officers to cover the stadium exits upon the game's conclusion.

Meanwhile, the operator of broadcast camera 13, '''Hiruta''', looks on ominously as he records the remaining few seconds of the match. Suddenly, a boy's voice sounds from behind him. He turns around to see Conan standing calmly, labeling him as the caller. The boy accuses Hiruta of connecting his headset to his phone to make the call, using his broadcast camera to maintain visual over the stadium activity.

Stadium Threatening Case

File 191 - The Eye From Far Away

The soccer match rages on while the police scramble to organize their investigation with only thirty minutes left on the clock. Inspector Megure becomes increasingly desperate as his options gradually evaporate. Conan suggests reviewing the broadcast footage of when the culprit identified the undercover officers, believing the culprit must be scouring the crowd while on the phone. Unfortunately, after reviewing the footage, Takagi states there is no such individual. Megure demands he check again, focusing on spectators operating a zoomable camera device. Kaneko's colleagues from Nichiuri TV then arrive with ¥100,000,000, only a tenth of the demanded total. As Megure and Kaneko brainstorm ways to deceive the culprits, Takagi relays Conan's previous theory, suggesting that the culprits had always intended to shoot someone with the ringing of the final whistle. After confirming from Kaneko that the caller has remained the same individual throughout their interactions, Conan infers that the caller's accomplice must have given his gun to the caller after initially shooting the ball since he did not possess the weapon when he picked up the money. The police frantically search the footage in an attempt to find the moment where the two culprits exchanged weapons. All eyes are glued to the screens as the second half's lost time begins. With no other options all Conan can do is pray, wishing time could stop. Seeing the boy's spiking anxiety, Haibara tells him to calm down, saying that "one cannot resist against the stream of time, and those who forcefully do are punished." As Conan is caught off guard by her words, he is distracted by the Detective Boys who appear to be focused on the match. However, they claim to be on task, only voicing their annoyance that the camera is repeated losing sight of the caller's accomplice as he traverses the stands. Taking notice, Conan figures out the caller's identity. With little time remaining, Megure deploys his officers to cover the stadium exits upon the game's conclusion.

The Detective Boys lament their inability to both watch the game and contribute to the investigation. However, Conan consoles his friends, informing them that they were instrumental in the success of the operation. Haibara congratulates Conan for his brilliant deductive skills, labeling him as a truly interesting specimen. Conan retorts that he wishes to not be patronized by an eighty four year old. Haibara corrects him, revealing that she is actually eighteen in a flirty manner, much to Conan's confusion.
