Case

Situation

Kogoro and horse bettors Susumu Nakamura, Chihiro Ougi, and Masao Shinohara gather in Satsuki Mishima's bar, one with no leg room and with a crack in the rusty wall. Everyone then leaves the bar around the same time to attend to personal matters. Kogoro takes a smoking break, Nakamura goes to buy cigarettes, Ougi to the public restroom, Shinohara to the ATM. When they regroup, they find Satsuki slouching over the counter on a swivel chair.

Murder

Location: "Satsuki" Bar

Victim: Satsuki Mishima

Cause of death: Stab wound

Suspects: Susumu Nakamura, Chihiro Ougi, and Masao Shinohara

Shinohara tries to wake her up, only to find a knife in her chest. Kogoro assumes that during the break, someone had a fight with Satsuki who was behind the counter, and stabbed her in the front. The evidence left on the scene does not support it.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

Conan, upon seeing the iron rust on Masao Shinohara's ATM receipt, deems him as the culprit in Kogoro's voice. Conan explains the Satsuki was knifed through a rusty crack in the wall from the back of the bar, removing the handle beforehand to allow passage. The swivel chair rotated Satsuki to the counter. He later reassembled the knife under the guise of waking her up, but left traces of rust on his receipt. Since the distance from the ATM to the back off the bar is considerably short, his alibi is annulled. His motive is grudge against the hostess who forced him to steal.
