Situation

Part 1

Conan, Ran, Sonoko and the Detective Boys are invited to an island for free diving lessons, but bad weather prevents them from doing so. While exploring the island, they find a filming crew lead and directed by Yuya Miyasaka, an actor who lost his fame due to assault causing the drama he starred in to cancel. While they watch, they see that Miyasaka physically harrases many of the crew members. It starts to rain soon after and every one returns to the resort, but Miyasaka is found murdered later on.

Murder

Location: Kurahashi Pension House

Victim: Yuya Miyasaka

Cause of death: Stab wound

Suspects: Saeko Akimoto, Miki Kitagawa, Eiji Yamamoto, Mitsuo Okita, and Shingo Takayama

The resort staff, film crew excluding Miki Kitagawa, and Conan's company meet in the lobby to discuss the identity of the murderer. Due to the rooms having an automatic lock when closed, they conclude Miyasaka had let the perpetrator into his room and suspects it to be the work of one of the crew members. The main suspects are fellow actress Saeko Akimoto, assistant director Eiji Yamamoto, stunt double Mitsuo Okita and cameraman Shingo Takayama.

Part 2

Kitagawa returns to the lobby and exclaims she saw Shingo Takayama, the cameraman, fleeing from the resort. Lead by Kitagawa, they find Takayama's body. He had fallen off a cliff.

Accident?

Location: Cliff

Victim: Shingo Takayama

Cause of death: Fell from high cliff

After investigating Miyasaka's body and the camera which recorded the first instance the body was found, Conan realizes who the culprit is.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

After tranquilizing and impersonating Sonoko, he reveals make-up artist Miki Kitagawa as the culprit. Conan reveals that the first murder was a fake perpetrated by Miyasaka, Takayama and Kitagawa. After everyone except Kitagawa goes to the lobby, she killed Miyasaka for real and exchanged the knife, evidenced by the stains on the knife's handle. She then proceeded to fatally push Takayama off a cliff to silence him, hide her role in the first murder, and fabricate an alibi. Kitagawa confesses to her crime and reveals that she was an aspiring actress in a show starring Miyasaka and wanted to show her grandmother the performance, but an incident caused by Miyasaka and Takayama cancelled the show and the episode was never broadcast. However, Saeko Akimoto yells at her and says she should have tried harder to make it as an actress and that such a reason was not an excuse for murder. Kitagawa breaks down after hearing her say that.
