Situation
Part 1
A play about Kogoro and Heiji is set to be produced in Kyoto, and the production staff have invited the detectives to Kabumoto’s house for script advice – with Conan simply tagging along. There is one alteration that catches Heiji’s attention – his counterpart is engaged, and Momiji comes in to confirm the fiancée is based on her. The change is confirmed by the director Kyosuke Kabumoto as the condition for her grandfather to invest in the play. He then introduces the second special guest – who surprisingly turns out to be Kuroda. Kuroda explains he just happened to have business in Kyoto, and decided to stop by at the Ooka home to offer congratulations to a retiring acquaintance, where Momiji then invited him to the event.
Meanwhile, Ran and Kazuha have been trying to eat as fast as possible in a Kyoto dessert tour they must finish, which was part of Momiji’s plan to get close to Heiji.
The pizza service comes to Kabumoto’s residence to deliver pizza, in which Kabumoto pays the money and volunteers to be the one cutting them. Kabumoto does not join in the pizza party because he is on a diet, and consumes a sleeping pill instead. The effect starts to take on when Kuroda is giving advice, thus, he has to leave early for a nap. He asks his three colleagues Myouji Karuo, Reisuke Inaba, and Shigeki Kimata to wake him up after 30-40 minutes and take every note of Kuroda's advice. Fifteen minutes later, they go to check up on his well-being and find him sleeping normally, in which they proceed to go down again.
Fast forward, Kuroda has finished with the feedback and decides to leave for his business. Suddenly, he reminds everyone of the suicide of Ninka Gyouda, who was reportedly close to Kabumoto, and asks if anyone heard or knew a possible motive. Kabumoto’s colleagues can’t figure out any possible motive, but remind how it affects him in particular and the whole play in general. Everyone arrives at Kabumoto's room to inform Kuroda’s departure, but they find the door stuck and some fabric of Kabumoto's clothes, which is similar to that before everyone discovered Gyouda's body. Upon getting inside the room using the route on the balcony, they find Kabumoto dead due to cyanide poisoning.
Inspector Ayanokoji arrives per request, narrates the events before they discovered the body, and questions what everyone did before it. Stage director Shigeki Kimata testifies that the playwright Reisuke Inaba tried to open the door, but failed because of the corpse blocking the way; the producer Myouji Karuo adds in that everyone was worried the tragedy happened to Gyouda would happen to their colleague, so they went outside to look in for the window. At first, Ayanokoji believes this is another suicide, but Conan and Heiji point out it is not: "They found a bottle of powdered cyanide and a poisoned bottle of water near Kabumoto's corpse. If one wants to commit suicide with powdered cyanide and a bottle of water, they need to somehow put it inside and shake it so it dissolves. However, the duo couldn't find traces of powdered cyanide on every spoon of the room or the bottle itself, meaning the bottle was poisoned outside the scene."
Since the case is concluded to be a murder, everyone else beside Conan is the suspects. Initially, Heiji and Kogoro mention that both Karuo, Inaba, and Kimata went to Kabumoto's room 15 minutes after he fell asleep, thinking that either of them poisoned him. But it turns out they were just checking on his well-being, and did not find any poisoned items like what the duo was implying. Momiji claims she was hugging Heiji's arm most of the time, causing him to feel her big chest.
Part 2
With the case being concluded as a murder in mind, Ayanokoji raises several questions: Was Kabumoto napping part of the culprit’s plan? If so, could they count on the medication he took? Moreover, what if he completely forgot to take the medicine or its effect did not take on at the right moment? In other words, Kabumoto was given another sleeping medication without knowing so. There are some consumables that were consumed throughout the day:
- Pizza or cups of coffee – Kabumoto did not consume pizza during the party, and everyone chose one cup randomly from a tray, so the case of him consuming the sleeping pills was not guaranteed, even if he joined in the pizza party.
- Lollipops – we have only seen him consuming these so far. However, both Karuo, Inaba, and Kimata confirm he only does so with one specific type of lollipop, and he would have noticed the sleeping pills if they were coated in one. This is because the three were scolded once when they switched one lollipop of his with another type as a prank.
They also reveal Kabumoto was told to follow the diet one year ago, which disappointed him a lot, though he always volunteers to cut the pizza. Funny enough, his weight has remained the same since. Kuroda doubts if Kabumoto consumed any of the pizza earlier because he smelt those in his mouth. The remaining production staff once again recall how Gyouda’s death almost impacted Kabumoto into cancelling the meeting today, until something sparked his imagination when he was looking at his lollipop. The lollipop reminds Momiji that one of the lollipops from the bowl Kogoro accidentally dropped when he went inside bounced without making sounds, which makes Heiji and Conan figure out how the murder was carried out.
