The killer is '''Yoshifusa Yabuuchi''', who actually is only impersonating the real Yoshifusa Yabuuchi, who died in Brazil years ago and was a good friend of his. The fake Yoshifusa is named Dickson Tanaka, a man born in Brazil to Japanese parents and Carlos' bodyguard, since young Carlos is the real Yoshifusa's son with a Brazilian woman as well as one of the heirs. Dickson Tanaka made everyone believe Carlos was his bodyguard to protect him from the others (since they thought he was a bodyguard, they wouldn't attempt anything against Carlos), and he killed Machiko in self-defense when she attempted to stab him in the bath.

Even more confusing is that '''Keiko Yabuuchi''' set up a timed mechanical crossbow launch to commit suicide. By bad luck their seats were rearranged and the bodyguard was nearly killed by it.

Machiko's aim in killing Yoshifusa Yabuuchi was to seize his inheritance. She went to an urban party and gave a phone call to establish an alibi, then drove back in a car waiting for the opportunity to kill. She told Hiromi Yabuuchi in advance to rekindle the fire heating the rural hot-tub creating an opportunity where Yoshifusa could be isolated.

Machiko's aim in killing "Yoshifusa Yabuuchi" was to seize his supposed share of inheritance, not knowing that he wasn't the actual heir since up until then none of the potential heirs knew about the real Yoshifusa's death. (Yoshichika ''did'' know that his brother had died, but he didn't say anything about it save for signaling it in the tape that contained his until-then secret will.) She went to an urban party and gave a phone call to establish an alibi, then drove back in a car waiting for the opportunity to kill. She told Hiromi Yabuuchi in advance to rekindle the fire heating the rural hot-tub creating an opportunity where Yoshifusa could be isolated. Much to her misfortune, Dickson/Yoshifusa was a very skilled martial artist: when she tried to stab him in the bath, he blocked her attack and then redirected it, stabbing Machiko to death as a consequence.

Some of these details are revealed by Shinichi/Conan's father Yusaku, who had followed Yukiko back to Japan and then snuck into the household. Conan himself helps by drugging up Inspector Yamamura and revealing the rest. Dickson accepts his part in Machiko's death and explains his role as Carlos's tutor and bodyguard, then surrenders quietly to the police.

After all is said and done, Yusaku properly reveals himself and goes to Yukiko. The ''other'' reason why she came alone was that they had a big fight in New York, and she shoots down several of his reconciliation attempts - much to Conan's embarrassment.

Situation

When Conan's glasses fall off when he's asleep, Ran sees his face clearly and begins to suspect it might be Shinichi. Her suspicions become stronger when she finds an old picture of them as children with a famous magician named Motoyasu Tsukumo. However, she cannot confront Conan right on - Tsukumo's wife suddenly arrives to Kogoro's office and tells him, Ran and Conan that her husband has been murdered! She also has some suspects in mind: speficially, his three disciples and prospect succesors.

As Ran carefully watches Conan decipher clues, she becomes more convinced he is Shinichi. Is there some way to reverse this discovery?
