Three days prior, Mutsumi Seino suddenly told her husband Daiichiro and her mother-in-law Ura that they should leave the house because Mrs. Sasaki, whose family moved away that morning, secretly told her that they were fleeing their cursed house. On the next day, Mutsumi told her husband that she was having a headache and her body felt feverish, which she put all the blame on the curse and nudged her family that they should move away before it is too late. Daiichiro was concerned about the situation, so he decided to have a look at the house. Conan and Kogoro happen to walk in Sasaki's former neighborhood when they see Daiichiro peeking at Sasaki’s former residence. They reach out to him and learn about the rumor, so they decide to discuss it with him at the Mouri Detective Agency.
Three days ago, Mutsumi Seino suddenly told her husband Daiichiro and her mother-in-law Ura that all of them should move away like what the Sasakis did that morning because Mrs.Sasaki told her that they were fleeing from their cursed house, which both Daiichiro and Ura laughed it off. The next night, Mutsumi told her husband that she was experiencing symptoms often seen in a cold – but she put all the blame on the curse, and they must move away before things could have gotten any worse! Daiichiro decided to peek at the house this morning since he was worried about his wife’s behavior. He is doing so when spotted by Conan and Kogoro, who then decide to take on the case when Daiichiro mentions the house is cursed.


After hearing what has been happening to the Seinos, Kogoro makes a call to the Sasakis to ask why they moved, which was simply because of work. Kogoro does not reveal it to Daiichiro yet and asks if his wife has suspicious behaviors, to which he remembers three days ago: Prior to the dinner, he was watering the plants when Mutsumi came home from shopping, however, she did not respond to him while saying: "It's not over" and "But that was five years ago, already." From there, after Daiichiro leaves the detective agency, Kogoro and Conan discuss the details again and believe that Mutsumi must have made a terrible mistake from the past that is about to be exposed, so they decide to talk it out with her and her family. That is only after she returns from the hospital, as when the two arrive at the Seino residence, they learn from Daiichiro that she fell down the steps at the station. They let Daiichiro visit his wife as they wait on the street.
In Mouri Detective Agency, Daiichiro recounts the situation to Kogoro and Conan, and how rushed Mutsumi was when convincing everyone to move away. Kogoro then calls the Sasakis to ask why they moved – they moved away because of work, and did not mention anything about the rumor. Kogoro then asks Daiichiro if his wife showed any change in her behavior, which he recalls the morning three days before: “When he was watering the plants, Mutsumi went home from shopping. However, she looked dazed while mentioning something five years ago that was not over.Kogoro and Conan discuss the situation again after Daiichiro goes home, and conclude that Mutsumi wanted to move away so that the mistake she made five years ago remains a secret.
 
They choose to go to the Seino residence to talk it out with her about the mistake. Meanwhile, Daiichiro receives information from a hospital that Mutsumi fell down the steps at the Beika Station, so he needs to go see his wife there. The two allow him to do so, and wait until a taxi arrives at the location, where he and Mutsumi get off the car. Coincidentally, Daiichiro has to leave her to buy bandages because he forgot to do so on their way home, letting his wife confront Kogoro and Conan as they expose her lies. Eventually, she confesses the past mistake she made five years ago when she was visiting Kazahaya Art Museum: She was at the park outside when a drunkard named Kenji Murakumo tried to grab her. She pushed him away, and once she saw him lying unconscious on his side, she slipped away from the scene before running into Atsuko Uryu, who was going in the opposite direction. On the next day, she saw news of Murakumo’s death on TV, and was worried since the police could come at any moment to arrest her, which hasn’t happened since. One week ago, she saw Uryu again, having moved one week prior, and was afraid if the two ran into each other again. She had to move away from the neighborhood, but needed a reason to do so – she made up the rumor of the Sasakis moving away from their cursed home.

Moments later, a taxi arrives at Kogoro's location where Daiichiro and Mutsumi would then get off. Coincidentally, Daiichiro appears to have forgotten to buy extra bandages on their way home, so Mutsumi is left confronted by Kogoro and Conan while he goes to get some. Mutsumi then confesses her past mistake to the two: "It happened in the summer five years ago when she was visiting an art museum in Kazahaya city. That day, she was walking at a park when a drunkard named Kenji Murakumo tried to grab her. She pushed him away and started to run once she saw him lying down unconscious and facing sideways. News reports on the next day made her terrified, as Murakumo was reported to have died from a blow to the back of his head. But at the same time, she remained confused till this day since she hasn’t received any summons from the police, despite running into Atsuko Uryu going the opposite way of her when she started slipping away. One month ago, Mutsumi saw Uryu again and learned that she moved to the neighbor half a month ago. She was afraid that Uryu would report her to the police if the two ran into each other again, so she had to move, but she needed a reason to do so. She took advantage of the fact that the Sasakis moved away for their work to create a rumor of a cursed house." She has now decided to turn herself in on the next day, which Kogoro believes to be a good decision.  
She has now come up with the decision to turn herself to the police. Just then, Conan asks how she got injured, to which she recalls that she was pushed by someone. Moreover, she presents the letter she found in the family mailbox, which she believes to be the punishment she deserved from lying.

Suddenly, Conan asks Mutsumi why she ended up with the injury, to which she replies someone pushed her from behind. In addition, she also gives the two the letter she found in the mailbox of the family this morning, which she deems to be the punishment she deserves to receive since she lied. After Mutsumi leaves the bench, Conan and Kogoro eventually decide to look into the incident five years ago, hoping to learn something helpful to the case. They arrive at Kazahaya city police department, where Kogoro meets again with Hitoshi Yukigaya – a police officer he worked with in a robbery case. They are surprised to learn about the police perspective: "It was an old couple that found the body and called the police. The police pursued the direction that he was killed by someone who had a grudge with him since he was disliked by many, but reached a dead end after finding nothing conclusive on the possible suspects." Kogoro reassures Yukigaya that they will solve the case soon while Conan is thinking something. Conan drags Kogoro to the park and expresses doubts on Uryu – Even if Uryu never sees the body, she should have found something odd when she watched news reports of Murakumo’s death since the woman who ran into her was clearly suspicious.

Situation

Three days ago, Mutsumi Seino suddenly told her husband Daiichiro and her mother-in-law Ura that all of them should move away like what the Sasakis did that morning because Mrs.Sasaki told her that they were fleeing from their cursed house, which both Daiichiro and Ura laughed it off. The next night, Mutsumi told her husband that she was experiencing symptoms often seen in a cold – but she put all the blame on the curse, and they must move away before things could have gotten any worse! Daiichiro decided to peek at the house this morning since he was worried about his wife’s behavior. He is doing so when spotted by Conan and Kogoro, who then decide to take on the case when Daiichiro mentions the house is cursed.

In Mouri Detective Agency, Daiichiro recounts the situation to Kogoro and Conan, and how rushed Mutsumi was when convincing everyone to move away. Kogoro then calls the Sasakis to ask why they moved – they moved away because of work, and did not mention anything about the rumor. Kogoro then asks Daiichiro if his wife showed any change in her behavior, which he recalls the morning three days before: “When he was watering the plants, Mutsumi went home from shopping. However, she looked dazed while mentioning something five years ago that was not over.” Kogoro and Conan discuss the situation again after Daiichiro goes home, and conclude that Mutsumi wanted to move away so that the mistake she made five years ago remains a secret.

They choose to go to the Seino residence to talk it out with her about the mistake. Meanwhile, Daiichiro receives information from a hospital that Mutsumi fell down the steps at the Beika Station, so he needs to go see his wife there. The two allow him to do so, and wait until a taxi arrives at the location, where he and Mutsumi get off the car. Coincidentally, Daiichiro has to leave her to buy bandages because he forgot to do so on their way home, letting his wife confront Kogoro and Conan as they expose her lies. Eventually, she confesses the past mistake she made five years ago when she was visiting Kazahaya Art Museum: She was at the park outside when a drunkard named Kenji Murakumo tried to grab her. She pushed him away, and once she saw him lying unconscious on his side, she slipped away from the scene before running into Atsuko Uryu, who was going in the opposite direction. On the next day, she saw news of Murakumo’s death on TV, and was worried since the police could come at any moment to arrest her, which hasn’t happened since.
