Plot overview

The Lost Ship in the Sky (Movie: 14)

Heiji and Kazuha hear her sibling Satoshi Kawaguchi's deduction about the truth between the goal of the Red Siamese Cat, a terrorist group, and he deduces that they threathened to spread the virus in Nara from upon the Suzuki airship they had taken over, so Nara citizens would escape to Osaka and that the city would be quickly deserted, making the way clear for them to steal the buddha statues at a shrine which were worth millions of yen and could be sold easily overseas and difficultly retraced, because the monks would have left the shrine escorted by fake policemen who were in fact members of the terrorist group. Understanding the truth and figuring it himself, Heiji decides to call Shikatsuno, a close acquaintance from previous cases he solved in Nara, so he could be there at time and heads by himself on his motorcycle with Kazuha and Satoshi to the shrine. There, they meet the fake policemen, who were trying to bring the statues inside a van but stop them. They say who are real policemen and they are just securing the statues, but Shikatsuno appear from nowhere with a majestuous appearance with headlights blowing on the culprits, telling them that if they'd be real officers he'd recognize them and that they couldn't escape through his megaphone, which makes the criminals surrender.
