Manga vs. Anime
In the manga, files 33-35 are the first and only time when Kogoro goes in train to Kyoto for a friend wedding. Ran came along to see Kyoto for the first time, and brought Conan rather than leave him alone in Tokyo. The Kyoto police came at the end of the case, but the corresponding anime episode replaced them with Inspector Megure and the police.
