Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The next day, Kogoro reunites the four suspects to the scene and Conan tranquilizes him. The culprit made a trick to shot the gun automatically, by tying the weapon to a chair with strings, place it in line with a mirror made with aluminium foil from the house next door. The gunshot will react to the light reflected by the mirror and shot the victim. The culprit use this method because it is needes to create an alibi, so the culprit is the only one with an alibi, Naoya Akaike. The proof is that he pretended that the victim had a dentist appointment and also pretendet to cancel it, because if he knew that Tawake will die, there was no point into doing one. The motive is that he used all of his students as ghost-writers and wanted to free everyone.
