Plot
Part 1
Two TV producers, a man named Shougo Somei and a woman named Maiko Kazumi, ask Kogoro to star on his own show. Kogoro agrees and they plan a meeting for the following day. The next day, Somei picks Kogoro, Ran, and Conan up to meet with his manager, Rasaku Nakama, to discuss the show. When they arrive to Nakama's apartment on the twentieth floor, Somei reveals that Nakama had been talking about killing himself lately, prompting the idea Nakama has committed suicide. They call the apartment manager who opens the door and cuts the door chain allowing them access to the room. They find Nakama who had died poisoned coffee. The police suspect the possibility of murder with the hypothesis that the culprit offered Nakama poisoned coffee before leaving and told Nakama to lock his door with a door chain. Conan investigates the coffee stains and realizes the culprit was with Nakama before he died; This means the culprit somehow placed the door chain back on the door before leaving. The police suspect Somei to be the culprit and that he had tampered the scene to hide how the murder was done.
Part 2
Conan investigates reveals that Somei tampered with the evidence to suggest Nakama was alone during his time of death. Conan reveals that there were originally two plates, two cups of coffee, and two pieces of cake. Somei took the piece of cake and placed it with the other piece to make it seem as if they were one piece. He then poured coffee from one of the cups into a plant and pretended the cup was a container for pens. For the other plate, he placed it under the spilled coffee cup to act as a saucer.
