The culprit is Naoko Takahashi. After she murdered Akagawa, she sliced his corpse into thin layers and hid them in laboratory files. Conan notices her relation to the victim when she confidently picked red pen and gave it to Akagawa when he requested her.

Naoko's motive is, as suspected, because Akagawa broke up with her after he became a famous writer and married Yumi, and refused to honor her request to wrote the story of their time together into a novel. In anger and madness, she decided to kill him and "turned him into books" instead.

The culprit is Shizuku Sakano. She used an extract of a poisonous plant known to accelerate heartbeat mixed with muscle relaxant cream to murder Yoshizawa, by coating the cloth used during the Relay Race with it. Onigawara, who was in the race between her and Yoshizawa, was not poisoned because he was wearing gloves. Because Yoshizawa's gloves have been missing before the race, Shinichi concludes that she must've stolen it to make sure that the victim's hands come into contact with the poison.

Sakano confesses and reveals her motive: the rumor about the marriage between her and Yoshizawa was a lie, as she still loves her late husband, Shoichi's father. Because of her husband's death and her being busy as a teacher, Soichi became a delinquent and was regularly arrested by the police. Yoshizawa, who took Soichi from the station, would then extorted her each time in exchange for keeping quiet about Soichi's crime, but once her money began to run out he threatened to let Soichi be sent to the Youth detention center. Not wanting to part with her son, she decided to kill Yoshizawa and silenced him.
