Conan found out who the criminal was and put Sonoko to sleep. Through Sonoko, Conan explained that the criminal had actually but in the capsule they found floating in the drink and the poison in separately to make it look like the poison was but in 15 minutes before when it actually had been put in more recently. By looking at the video Ran took he showed that Sonoko had put her lemon tea right next the victim's and the criminal had put the poison in Sonoko's instead of the one the victim had been drinking. Proof of this was the fact that Sonoko's fingerprints were all over the can and 2 of the people that had touched the can did have their fingerprints on it. The only 4 people that had been near the can after it was switch was Sonoko, Ran, Conan, and the groom, Toshihiko Takasugi. Sonoko and Ran had never touched the can after the switch and once they exclude Conan, Toshihiko Takasugi and the victim herself are the only people that could of poisoned the lemon tea. Then he explains how it couldn't of been the victim because there was no container to hold it in and drying agent found in the room. Those two things were needed to carry around sodium hydroxide, the poison used, because sodium hydroxide liquefies in a few minutes and because the victim was in the room the whole time there would be no way to dispose of the container and drying agent outside in the hall where it was found. Therefore, the criminal was Toshihiko Takasugi.

The motive was that the superintendent had crashed into a suspect's car 20 years ago and his mom got caught in the crash. Not seeing Takasugi's mom, the superintendent told him to go away when he tried to tell him. 15 min later Takasugi's mom died on the street. When Takasugi found out that the victim was the superintendent's daughter he wanted to kill her to show the superintendent how much it hurt to lose someone you love.

Later they find out that the victim's surgery was a success and that she was going to recover soon.

She also gets married 3 years later to Toshihiko Takasugi.
