Conan wanted to drug Kogoro to expose Nakamichi, but when he was about to do so, he heard Kogoro talking to himself about how angry he was at the idea of one of his beloved friends being a killer, then swearing to resolve the case no matter what. Conan was so moved by Kogoro's sincerity that instead of making him sleep, he limited himself to give him the pointers he needed to fully uncover Nakamichi's guilt. One of these was Conan mentioning a statue of the legendary Benkei, a warrior who died while on his feet; this made Kogoro realize the trick that Nakamichi used to fake the time of Yumi's death.

Nakamichi admitted to being the killer, explained why he killed Yumi, and then angrily attacked Kogoro, who then easily used a Judo throw to immobilize him. Nakamichi says Kogoro is still as strong as ever but Kogoro denies it, saying that Nakamichi has become weaker.
