Case

Situation

Part 1

Three people, Moyono Mibu, Seinosuke Nagata, and Tatsurou Seikanji, gather by a dim candle with masks to discuss a murder and the profits/inheritance afterwards. They decide to all attempt to murder a man, and whoever succeeds, receives 80% of the inheritance, while the other two receive 10% to remain silent about the murder.

On the other hand, Mouri receives a letter that asks for his assistance in preventing and warning Jisaburou Izumi's life is in danger. The letter has no signature, but Mouri takes on the case when Conan mentions Jisaburou Izumi is wealthy. The crew continue to Jisaburou Izumi's museum, only to witness and barely help Jisaburou Izumi escape a series of "accidents" setup by his three managers.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit is Hatsuho Toba. She killed Akaza by applying the poison on the back of her spoon when trying the cheese so the poison would get on all but the section of cheese that she tasted. Then she switched out the spoon when she wiped away the dropped cheese on Jisaburou's clothing. She stabbed Moyono with an iron skewer when Moyono's guard was down. She proceeded to stab Jisaburou with two iron skewers connected together to make the wound look like a chisel. She wrote the letter to Mouri so he could prove her innocence.
