    • Resolution

    <spoiler> Amagi and Bando were murdered by Toyoko Kamemitsu, but under a more indirect motive. Kamemitsu, a mystery fan, had written a book titled The Melting Weapon and submitted it under the pen name Yamiyo Dorosue to the publishing company where Chino worked as a reviewer and censor. However, Chino judged the script as being too awful for publishing, and he openly voiced his derision of the author's writing skills and her pen name while visiting Kamemitsu's café, without knowing that he was addressing the very subject of his criticism. Thereupon Kamemitsu decided to take revenge on Chino by framing him for the murders of Tatsuya Amagi, since he was already hated by most of his neighbors, and Hikoichi Bando because he had been too negligent in challenging Amagi for his disorderly conduct.

    Conan's clue for discovering Kamamitsu's guilt were the mytery books she had brought to her café and removed after the murders; all of them featured short stories she had already successfully published, and Agatha Christie's The ABC Murders, on which the case was incidentally patterned based on the victims' last names and Kamamitsu's pen name. Kamamitsu, admitting her guilt, subtly left those clues so that only a true mystery fan - who would be Conan - would be able to expose her as the culprit.
