It seems the crows accidentally made the potted plant fell from the top of the apartment and hit on Begami's head. Could this be an accident?

They then confronted Noriko Imai, where Conan says Egami was not killed by the flower pot on accident but it was only her who could that since she is the only one living above the victim. She fished Egami's flower pot up, then she dropped the fishing line down to the floor, circled the string behind the broken refrigerator and taped the lottery ticket to it. Finally, putting the lottery ticket on the front step, she waited for Tatsue to return. When Tatsue tried to pick up the lottery ticket, she pulled the line, that way, she can position her at exactly where you needed. However, she couldn't aim for Tatsue's head, since the refrigerator was to big and it probably blocked her view of her. After dropping the pot, she pulled the lottery ticket back to complete the trick, where she then put the 500 yen coin there before hand to explain the strange position of Tatsue. To incriminate her, Conan saw strange marks under the refrigerator when the garbagemen collect, along with this part of a lottery ticket that ripped when she was pulling it back up. Imai confesses where she reveals Tatsue Begami humiliated her in her own shop where she brought the one she picked up was actually the ripped break-up letter that her boyfriend wrote to her from the garbage can where then she return it to pieces, while Noriko herself was trying to forget the sorrowful memory. With Ayumi's persuasion, she turns herself in.
