Situation
Located in Tokyo Bay, the newly built integrated resort and convention centre "Edge of Ocean" is going to host an upcoming Summit Meeting.

On the spot is Tooru Amuro from the National Public Security Police. Conan wondered why the explosion occurred days before instead of during the summit, and noted the suspicious behavior of Amuro. Investigations found incriminating fingerprints at the crime scene which match Kogoro Mouri's when checked against all past and present police personnel.
A strange hacking past case emerged in which Amuro was blamed for the suicide of the suspect, who is linked to the characters involved in the present case. When prosecutors were filing charges against Kogoro, a series of explosions went off all over Tokyo City. As Conan and the Public Security probed into the conspiracy behind the case, they noted the past hacking case was of the American space agency which happened to be managing the return of an unmanned Martian mission craft called "White Swan" ("Hakuchō"), its scheduled re-entry coinciding with the summit schedule as well as programmed to land off Tokyo Bay.
Meanwhile, Hyoe Kuroda is also moving.

Resolution
The real culprit is
Makoto Kusakabe. His goal was to dishonor the Public Security Police by making Edge of Ocean explode a few days before the international summit. His mobile was to avenge the death of Fumikazu Haba, who was a friend and assistant, who worked for him and was unjustly sent to jail by the PSB before committing suicide in his prison cell.
Amuro reveals to Kusakabe that he made a deal with Haba when he was prosecuted: the PSB would declare Haba dead, and in exchange didn't send him to prison and made him an informant for the police. Haibara and the Professor film Haba in Agasa's house and show the video to Kusakabe.
