-<spoiler>The culprit is '''Tokujiro Nagai''', and his motive was the death of his wife. Mrs. Nagai was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but Tokujiro's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Oshiro, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for the sake of his wife. But then Oshiro decided to demand the repayment from Mrs. Nagai, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into serious debts, Mrs. Nagai suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards.
+<spoiler>'''Tokujiro Nagai's''' motive for murdering Oshiro was the death of his wife. Mrs. Nagai was hospitalized due to a serious sickness, but Tokujiro's earnings were too modest to afford her treatments, so he was forced to borrow money from Kuromaru Finance. Oshiro, whenever he came by to check on the investment, callously bullied Nagai, which the old man endured for the sake of his wife. But then Oshiro decided to demand the repayment from Mrs. Nagai, heedless of her condition. When she heard that her husband had plunged himself into serious debts, Mrs. Nagai suffered a breakdown which contributed to her death soon afterwards.
 Due to that revelation, Nagai remembers [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] - or rather, [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] - from an incident ten years ago, when one of a group of children visiting his toy shop had dropped a toy engine to the floor, breaking it. Shinichi found out which child had done it, but Nagai kindly refused to punish the offender for this accident. The startlement from this revelation convinces Nagai to turn himself over to the police, and [[Inspector Megure]] orders a thorough investigation of Kuromaru's dubious business practices. When Megure asks Nagai why he has decided to turn himself in, Nagai replies that a "mysterious boy who has [[APTX-4869|remained unchanged]] for ten years" (Shinichi) has influenced him into doing so since he was to believe that the mysterious boy had no longer lived and went up to see his wife in heaven.
