Case

Situation

Haibara

Ai Haibara has a dream that Gin finds her. Later, after school, Conan Edogawa and Haibara find Gin's car by chance. Conan plants a tracker in his car before he and Vodka take off. He then learns that Gin and Vodka are planning to eliminate someone, and already has a member named Pisco in the area. Gin then finds the tracker and destroys it, believing Sherry placed it there. Using the info they already gathered, Conan and Haibara rush to stop Pisco's mission from succeeding. Though, when they arrive, the lights go out, and a chandelier falls down, crashing on the target.

Murder
	Victim: Shigehiko Nomiguchi Cause of death: Blunt trauma by falling chandelier Suspects: Pisco

Conan

The police question everyone, and unable to maintain everyone as a suspect, the guests rush out the door. In the turmoil, Haibara is kidnapped by someone and confined to a liquor storage room. Elsewhere, Gin and Vodka are on their way to the hotel. Haibara drinks baijiu, directed by Conan, in hopes that she'll be able to turn big and climb out the chimney. Will she be able to escape in time before Gin and Vodka find her?

Solution

Gin and Vodka meet Haibara on the rooftop, already aware that she used the chimney to escape the wine cellar. There, the two shoot her down. Conan arrives and shoots Gin with his needle, then distracts them with his bow-tie, turning their attention to his location. Haibara retreats, jumping back down the chimney before they're able to kill her. Conan escapes too. Gin shoots himself in the arm to remain alert, overcoming Conan's sleeping darts.

Remastered version

On March 23, 2009, a remastered version of the case was aired. All three episodes were edited and combined into one hour long special, and scenes were edited out to fit the time slot. However, exclusive to the remastering new scenes were added to this version. In the beginning, Haibara types APTX 4869 into a program on a computer. She tells the story of the drug and she stills recall the day she and Conan encounter them. In the ending, Haibara deletes the typing and closes the program. She says that seems like enough information for whoever who is watching and mentions the watcher is now one of the people who knows their secret and is in danger now if the secret goes out, so the person should pray that nothing bad happens. She gets up from her chair then leaves, and Conan appears on the computer screen, saying that no matter what, he'll protect the watcher.
