The killer was Akiko Sayama. Ebara's deals were the cause of her beloved older brother's death, having hacked into his company's records and ruined his computer programmer's career as well as his company, which drove him to suicide; so she organised the trip to punish Ebara with her own hands. (He also tried to sell the program to Kamijou, his ex-wife; she realized that it was a stolen program and stopped its sale).

After the dinner Sayama called Ebara up to her room, promising to give him the "Night Baron" virus, drugged him to make him fall asleep, and then put the Night Baron outfit on him before she threw him off her balcony. The reason why he fell on the statue was an accident, due to the famous Hime-Kaze (Princess Wind) which was blowing at full strenght and thus made him fall farther from where he should have, "helped" by how he was wearing a cape that caught wind. Conan proved it by, as Kogoro, making the police release some "dummies" from each room's balcony; the one who fell on the statue was thrown from Maeda and Sayama's suite. The glove that Kogoro saw in Ebara's balcony was actually planted in its place, to make it look like Ebara had thrown himself off it. She also was the one who threw Conan off the balcony, intending to scare Kogoro away.

The false Baron that attacked Ran and Sayama, however, was Satoru Maeda. He did so because, having found the Night Baron wig in his and Sayama's room, he realized his girlfriend's plans and wanted to divert attention from her so she wouldn't go to jail. He went as far as not revealing the alibi thar he did have, as to not create inconsistencies within the story.

Maeda insists that he's the real killer, but Conan via Kogoro reveals that he's not; he is also convicted, but for taking the heat, and is likely to get a lighter sentence. Sayama tells Maeda to forget about her since she's not a good woman; he promises to wait for Sayama's release, however, and despite trying to put on a mask of stoicism, she can't help crying as she's taken away.

Remastered versions

A remastered version of the entire case was aired over the span of August 15, 22, and 29, 2009. Instead of editing the episodes and combining them into an hour, all three standalone episodes were remastered.
