Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit is Kensuke Katsuragi. Conan reveals that Katsuragi met with Shijo in her room and murdered her. After doing so, he took the key to her rooms, locked it, and climbed from the outside to the top of Shijo's room, cracked a small piece of the ceiling, and dropped the keys into the room. As evidence, Conan reveals that despite the key being mixed in a pile of other keys, Katsuragi was able to find out which key opened the door in his first try. Katsuragi replies that he knew the key with the sapphire keychain was the one for the door; Conan reveals that the key was originally connected to a diamond keychain which is now in Ran's possession. This means that Katsuragi was the last person to meet Shijo before her death. Katsuragi confesses and revealing that Reika was demanded which he repay all of her investments. After the police arrest Katsuragi, Conan asks Ran what she wanted Shijo to read for her to which she replies Shinichi's current whereabouts.
