Case

Situation

Departure

Vermouth is on the phone with Gin. Vermouth passes on the information that Bourbon came across, that Sherry was hiding in Gunma and was going to travel on the Bell Tree Express, a train owned by the Suzuki family which hosts a special mystery onboard. Vermouth recalls her encounter with Conan Edogawa and her promise to let Sherry go. She justifies the upcoming attack on Sherry as Bourbon's job and asks Gin not to interfere before the train reaches its destination.

Conan, Ran, Sonoko, Professor Agasa, and the Detective Boys including Haibara prepare to board the Bell Tree Express. Haibara still has a cold and has on her cold mask on the platform. The Detective Boys learn that the train usually runs only once a year, but this year will be different because Jirokichi Suzuki plans to run it a month later in another attempt to lure out Kaitou Kid. Sonoko also plans to leave her love letter for Kid in the train car. Suddenly Masumi Sera shows up, and she says she is interested in the deduction quiz that will take place in the train. Haibara notices her and covers herself with her jacket's hood.

Next, more passengers arrive. Satoru Ando of Room 8C is the first to arrive, and he is traveling with a client's painting with a solid gold frame. Taisaku Noto (8A) and Mari Idenami (8E) show their familiarity with the conductor. Natsue Komino (8D), an old lady in a wheelchair, is accompanied by her maid Hiruka Sumitomo. And lastly, the angry Etsuto Murobashi appears (7B), and he accosts the conductor for not having his usual room in Car 8. Kogoro (8B) introduces himself to the group after adjusting his mustache into the style of Hercule Poirot, explaining to him that his daughter, Ran, is a friend of the owner of the train, so he got Murobashi's room.

In Agasa's room, 6B, Conan and the Detective Boys are chatting. Someone knocks on their door. They find a mystery card lying there, telling them they have received the role of detective that will investigate the murder which will occur in Room 7B. The group (excluding Agasa) goes to 7B and witnesses a supposed murder incident. A masked man with hood shoots Etsuto Murobashi. They run after the murderer, but he gets away.

Later, they run into a train conductor, and learn that the quiz is supposed to happen an hour later and the card was fake. Conan, with a shocked expression, runs back to 7B only to found out that Ran, Sonoko, and Masumi are there instead, and to complicate thing further, Ran's group tell them they're in 8B. It seems that after the murder happened, Car 7 disappear into thin air.

Meanwhile, Haibara, who's slightly behind Conan group, follows them half-heartly, shows a strong reaction when Scar Akai leaves one of the rooms. But Scar Akai, who is dressed in a formal outfit, does not notice her and walks in the opposite direction. Haibara catches a glimpse of him.

Conan tries to convince the train conductor that something was wrong with the mystery murder that took place to no avail. Nevertheless, they learn more about the nature of the train. Passengers can ring a bell which turns on a light above their door to summon the carriage attendant who sits in the hall. Additionally, each car has no indication of its number inside, only from outside can one tell the car number, a feature added by Jirokichi Suzuki to make the train more mysterious. Meanwhile, Haibara recalls her encounter with Scar Akai a moment ago. She thinks he has the "feeling" of Dai Moroboshi but doesn't understand why he has a burn mark.

Conan then recalls seeing Masumi holding a card when they first ran into Ran's cabin. They go back to 7B and confront the girls with the correct conclusion: everything happened in 7B all along and the girls had lied that the room was 8B. Ran's party received the role of accomplices (assigned by the card that Masumi held) and temporarily switched rooms with Murobashi as part of the trick. As the Detective Boys followed Conan into the room, Masumi notices that Haibara is with the group, and says she wants to have a word with her. Haibara is spooked, but the conversation is cut short because Scar Akai had been lurking outside the door. Masumi demands to know who was there, but Scar Akai hides himself before Masumi sees him.

After the trick is revealed, they return to Ran's original room, 8B, to inform Murobashi that their trick got exposed. They try to open the door, but it is chained shut and Murobashi is "sleeping" on the couch. Just then, Masumi and Conan notice the gunpowder smell and break the chain link to open the door. They found Etsuto Murobashi was killed in a sealed room!

Suicide?
	Location: Bell-tree express Car 8 - Cabin B Victim: Etsuto Murobashi Age: 39 years old Cause of death: Gunshot wound to the temple Suspects: Satoru Ando, Mari Idenami, Taisaku Noto, Natsue Komino, and Hiruka Sumitomo

Tunnel

Conan and Masumi explain the reason why Murobashi's case could not be a suicide. Conan then receives a message from an unknown sender and tells the Detective Boys to go back to their room with Ran, and shouts angrily when they don't comply. Haibara thinks about the "ominous feeling" inside her, as well as Conan's tense behavior, as she clinging to Ran and wonders what is going on. Immediately, Scar Akai walks past and glares at Haibara which frightens her. Tooru Amuro also appears right behind Scar Akai, and greets Ran, who informs him a murder has taken place. This happens in the hallway right outside Subaru Okiya's room. Inside, Subaru hears the conversation and is also accompanied by a woman resembling Vermouth who is seemingly busy with her cellphone, but we don't see her face. He says to her that, "Heaven is siding with us".

Jirokichi Suzuki, who waits at Nagoya station, orders the train to head there without stopping, so he can witness the murderer captured. Without any other choice, Kogoro, Conan, and Masumi go to interrogate the passengers. Ran, Sonoko, Agasa, and the Detective Boys return to their room. The Car 8 conductor was the last to see Murobashi alive and gives his recount during the interrogations: The call bell sounded but no light was on so he visited Noto (8A), whose light was burnt out. Noto says he didn't call for service. It was at this time the conductor saw Murobashi on his phone at 8B's door. The conductor was then summoned to 8E, where Idenami complains about a noise in her room. During this time, Komino and Sumitomo (8D) exited their room and headed away, after which the conductor noticed someone peeking at him from behind the opened 8A door. Kogoro, Conan, and Masumi discover the connection between the suspects: They were all at a wealthy person's birthday party five years ago which ended with a big fire that killed the host and most of their family. They also discover the light bulb wasn't fixed as all the spares were missing, along with a set of conductor's uniform. Conan receives another unknown message.

Mitsuhiko brings up the subject of the woman (Shiho Miyano) who saved them from the fire in the last case. It is revealed that Mitsuhuko had sent a video recording of the woman to Kogoro, so Kogoro could find and thank her. Kogoro also thought of uploading the video to the internet. This causes Haibara to panic and think her ominous feeling is due to Black Organization members on the train. Haibara receives a message from an unknown address asking, "Are you ready?" and signed "Vermouth". Haibara makes an excuse to go out. Ran notices her strange behavior and tries but fails to follow her. Alone, Haibara recalls the tape left by her mother, Elena Miyano, for Shino's 18th birthday: She talks about Haibara's parents starting a drug project that will require them to leave Shiho and Akemi behind, a project they call "Silver Bullet". Haibara then regrets making the drug, thinking it was something that shouldn't have been made. She looks at the antidote to APTX 4869 that she is holding and decides to take it so that she can avoid involving those associated with her Haibara persona. Before she can take it, Subaru confronts Haibara, commenting that he accurately predicted her actions from knowing her sister, and invites her to "enter our area". Haibara runs away from him instead, thinking she can't be killed while in a shrunken state.

Intersection

Conan is still investigating the case. He asks the suspects to be filmed while running. They also learn the wealthy person was a collector of famous paintings, most of which were lost in the fire. While Sumitomo is filmed running, Conan tries to talk to Komino, who doesn't respond and smokes a pipe. Masumi leaves the group, intending to take the recordings to the Detective Boys to ask them which looks most like the masked suspect they chased earlier. On the way, Amuro notices her from a room and contacts someone with his cellphone. Scar Akai then walks past the mysterious woman who had come with Subaru. The woman says something to Scar Akai as he passes which startles him. But before he can follow her, Masumi confronts him and asks, "Who are you?" Scar Akai smiles and tells Masumi, "you haven't changed a bit." and he reveals his face to her. Masumi, surprised and confused, responds with "Shu-nii". (nii is Japanese suffix to call an older brother). She questions Scar Akai, stating that Shuichi should be dead. Masumi and Scar Akai's confrontation ends abruptly when Scar Akai knocks Masumi unconscious with a taser. Scar Akai then comments that Masumi's response was the one he wanted to hear.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit is Satoru Ando.

Evidence

• 

  Satoru Ando boards with a large and heavy suitcase. This contains the folding mirror he uses for the trick

• 

  Satoru Ando was the assistant of Etsuto Murobashi earlier

• 

  Once the train entered a tunnel, the attendant heard a prerecorded call bell sound and went to room 8A because their call light was burnt out. Satoru Ando had snuck onto the train earlier and broken the light

• 

  While the attendant spoke with Taisaku Noto in 8A, the still living Murobashi leaned out to see where the attendant was and sent a message to Satoru Ando to come

• 

  The attendant then rushed to see Mari Idenami in 8E because pushed the call bell when she heard a watch alarm in her room. Mari Idenami later finds a watch had been hidden in her room and timed to go off when the train entered the tunnel

• 

  When the attendant answers the door to 8E, down the hall is a mirror image of the attendant and the open door

• 

  Etsuto Murobashi is holding a silenced handgun. Satoru Ando intended it to look like a suicide, but did not realize it is too awkward to hold a silenced handgun to one's head at the temple

• 

  Across from Etsuto Murobashi is a single gunshot hole in the couch. Masumi could see it by looking in the door. Satoru Ando asked Murobashi to fire this shot so his gun would look used

• 

  The door to room 8B has six links, rather than five like the rest of the rooms, meaning it could be locked from the outside

Conclusion

Amuro opens the large painting Ando brought with him and reveals it is a folding mirror that fits the door, with a blob of brown paint placed to hide the number of the reflected door. Ando confesses to the crime.

Motive

Satoru Ando wanted retribution against Etsuto Murobashi because his wife was killed in the fire that Etsuto Murobashi set in order to steal valuable artworks from the mansion unnoticed. Initially Ando was going to force Murobashi to confess to the rest of the passengers, but Murobashi gleefully recalling his exciting escape from the fire enraged Ando.

Mrs. Ando
	Deceased (Fire) Satoru's wife

---

While the deduction show still continues, Scar Akai enters the room belonging to the mysterious lady and throws her luggage out the window. The mysterious woman appears at the door and tells Scar Akai that the dress in the luggage was her favorite. The mysterious woman reveals herself to be Yukiko Kudo by naming Scar Akai as her old friend, "Sharon". Scar Akai rips his mask off and confirms Yukiko's deduction that she is none other than Vermouth.

Yukiko boasts to Vermouth that they know Vermouth's weakness, which is Vermouth that doesn't want anyone, including her partner on the train, to know that Conan and Haibara shrunk from the APTX 4869. Also, Vermouth had ordered software from CG programmer, Suguru Itakura that probably is related to the de-aging. Yukiko deduced this as Vermouth placed the order despite her and Itakura having hated each other since a fight on the film set. Vermouth responds to Yukiko's boast by saying she is the one who saw through Yukiko's team's plan. Vermouth deducts that they will try to fake Shiho Miyano's death so the Black Organization will let go of her for good. Vermouth explains then that Haibara can't be shown dead in her child body because it will cause the Detective Boys to panic and cry, which would bring the Black Organization's attention to them as Sherry's acquaintances. But if Haibara dies in her original body (played by Yukiko with makeup), then the Detective Boys will be none the wiser. Vermouth tells Yukiko that's not only Yukiko's luggage that she disposed of, but the bullet-proof vest with blood contraption that she hid in the basin closet as well. Yukiko say the two are even because even though Vermouth sees through her plan, neither has found Haibara. Vermouth reveals her trick to smoke Haibara out by detonating multiple smoke bombs she placed earlier. (The bombs can be seen under the attendant's seat and also in the crime scene.)

At the deduction scene, Amuro is the first to notice the smoke, concludes the train is on fire and tells everyone to evacuate to the front of the train. The suspects, who are pyrophobics after surviving the mansion fire incident, become panicked and run. Conan wakes up Kogoro and urges Komino and Sumitomo of room 8D to hurry up and leave. Next, Vermouth correctly deduces that Haibara won't escape the fire to the front like everyone else, but will go in the opposite direction. Then Haibara is shown, now in her original body, running through the smoke past the victim's room (7B). A voice from behind states that Shiho is "as expected of Hell's Angel's daughter" that she is "very much alike". The voice belongs to Tooru Amuro, who introduces himself to Shiho with his codename, Bourbon.

Meanwhile, Vermouth continues to predict Sherry's movement that she will head to the back of train and be killed by the Organization alone, rather than involving her friends. Conan then phones Yukiko to inform her that he can't find Haibara anywhere. Vermouth grabs Yukiko's phone away and impersonates her on the phone, misguiding Conan into looking for Haibara at the front of the train. Vermouth then receives a message from Bourbon confirming that Sherry is indeed in carriage 8. She then boasts to Yukiko that's it's her team that has the advantage.

In carriage 8, Bourbon tells Sherry he has met her parents and sister. Sherry says she has heard about him and knows he is a rival to Dai Moroboshi, Akemi's lover. Bourbon says Dai was an FBI mole, as he suspected. When he heard that Dai/Shuichi was dead, he didn't believe it at first and enlists Vermouth's help to disguise himself as Scar Akai, hanging around people who knew Shuichi to observe their reactions. However, this time he had Vermouth disguise as Shuichi in place of him. He comes to the conclusion that Shuichi is really dead.

At the Nagoya train station, Gin reveal the platform is lined with explosives for when the train arrives. Gin comments that the presence of the Jirokichi and Aichi police only make the explosion seem like an attempt on their lives, which covers the Black Organization's intention (manga only). Gin then becomes surprised when Vodka informs him Vermouth was asking for explosives, without telling him the purpose.

Bourbon, meanwhile, reveals his plan to take Sherry back to the Black Organization alive. Carrying a handgun, he'll have her step inside the storage hold, knock her out, bomb the carriage link to separate the storage hold form the rest of the train, then have allies take her away. Sherry refuses to cooperate, stating that the storage hold is full of explosives, causing Bourbon to realize that Vermouth had a different plan, wanting to kill Sherry from the start. Sherry steps inside the carriage and closes the door. Bourbon is about to follow her but a mysterious figure appears behind Bourbon, obscured by smoke. Bourbon thinks it's Vermouth; the mysterious figure throws a hand grenade over the carriage link. Bourbon, surprised at this, asks who the person is. The figure is revealed to the readers (but not to Bourbon) that he has Shuichi Akai's face, without the scar, and dresses in an outfit like those of Subaru Okiya's, wearing Masumi's hat. The grenade explodes, interrupting their one-sided conversation. The storage hold is separated from the train, and seconds later, it explodes, triggered by Vermouth's cellphone.

Bombing / Attempted Murder
	Location: Bell-tree express Victim: Shiho Miyano? Injury: Explosion Culprit: Vermouth Vermouth triggered the explosion of the last two cabins, supposedly killing Shiho in the process.

Vermouth explains to Yukiko she purposefully detonated the second bomb having heard the first one (which confirmed that the storage hold was separated from the train), making sure the explosion wouldn't cause the train to derail. Vermouth leaves the room while Yukiko begins frantically calling for Haibara, but she stops immediately after Vermouth is out of sight (manga only). Bourbon is left wondering who the figure was, but he seems to have an idea.

The train stops and the passengers disembark. Vermouth phones Gin about the situation, in which Bourbon claims he saw Sherry die in the explosion; Gin shows doubt about Sherry's survival. Gin points out that Vermouth wanted an explosion on the train so the train couldn't reach its destination at Nagoya (where Gin was waiting). Vermouth tells him they have to be questioned, along with other passengers and that he should be satisfied enough hearing that Sherry is dead. Vermouth hangs up and overhears the Detective Boys talk to Agasa (who has Haibara sleeping on his back) about how they found Haibara in room 7B. Haibara claimed she got dizzy after taking the drug for her cold and decided to rest there. The room was empty due to it being a crime scene. Vermouth realizes Yukiko's team figured that Haibara would go there, so they waited for her there. Conan's phone call to Yukiko was just an act to keep Vermouth in Yukiko's room and not look for Haibara. But Vermouth can't figure out who the woman who was supposedly killed in front of Bourbon was.

Vermouth then figures out Kaitou Kid's involvement after overhearing Sonoko voice her frustration to Ran that Kaitou Kid won't be able to board the train after the explosion. Vermouth also overhears Conan on the phone with Kaitou Kid, apologizing to him for dragging him into a situation with guns and bombs. Kaitou Kid is shown leaving the exploding train on his hang-glider, the gadget Conan deduced Kid would hide in the storage room in the first place. It is revealed in a flashback that Conan had deduced Kid's identity. Kid disguised as Hiruka Sumitomo (the maid) and had his accomplice disguised as Natsue Komino (the wheelchair lady). His accomplice, heavily hinted to be Konosuke Jii, can't mimic the voice of the lady, and relied on Kid to talk like a ventriloquist. So when Conan has Sumitomo run in the corridor, Komino can't speak. Conan has the advantage of being short (looking from below) and saw through Jii's act easily (manga only), as well as their reaction about the fire, which wouldn't match the reaction of a pyrophobic.

Conan brings up the point that he purposefully overlooked Kid's actions to avoid being involved with the case as leverage to ask Kid for help. Conan shows him a video of Shiho Miyano and has Kid disguise as her. Haibara would tell him what to say through an earpiece. Conan tells him to be careful because guns and explosives are involved (manga only). Conan finishes his conversation by asking Kid to return his cellphone to the detective agency. Kid, annoyed, doesn't consider them even and comments that Conan should be in debt to him for helping.

Because of the explosion, the train is brought to an early stop and the passengers disembark so they can be questioned by the police at the station. Konosuke Jii, Kaitou Kid's assistant, has removed his old woman disguise because he is unable to speak without Kid to assist him. Masumi tries to figure out what's going on as Ran returns her hat, which she found in the corridor. Bourbon watches them silently and then asks Vermouth to give him the files from before and after Shuichi's death one more time. Vermouth agrees and Bourbon thinks he must reopen his investigation from "square one". Lastly, Subaru Okiya, is watching Vermouth and Bourbon from behind. One of his eyes is shown for the first time to reveal his Shuichi Akai-like eyes.

Character background revelations

• Tooru Amuro is revealed to be the Black Organization member Bourbon, and he seems to know Shiho's mother, Elena, in which he instantly realizes Shiho as "Hell Angel's daughter".
• Scar Akai is revealed to be a disguise used by Bourbon and Vermouth to impersonate Shuichi Akai to ensure that the real Shuichi is dead by judging the reactions of Shuichi's sister and close friends. Bourbon had been using the disguise prior to boarding the train, but he had Vermouth take the role because she can imitate Shuichi's voice and block Masumi Sera from interfering.
• Masumi Sera is Shuichi Akai's younger sister.
• Subaru Okiya is an ally of Conan's and his heavily hinted to be the real Shuichi Akai. The man who looks like Shuichi who drops the grenade is wearing Subaru's clothes and had taken Masumi's hat which had been in her room when Subaru returned Masumi.

Important event summaries

• Vermouth reports to Gin that Shiho Miyano has been killed. Although she later realizes she had been tricked, Vermouth keeps this discovery a secret.
• Yukiko deduces that Vermouth has some vital reason to hide from the rest of the Black Organization that Shiho and Shinichi have deaged due to APTX 4869. She also confirms that Vermouth was involved in trying to force Suguru Itakura to finish a special project he had stopped.
• Yukiko wins the bet she made with Vermouth, with the stakes being that Vermouth had to give up on hunting Shiho completely.
• Bourbon, who had earlier concluded Shuichi was truly dead, begins to second-guess his deductions. He asks Vermouth for detailed information from before and after Shuichi's death so he can begin from square one.
• Conan discovers Tooru Amuro is Bourbon, which Bourbon does not realize.
• Elena and Atsushi Miyano had worked on a project for the Black Organization called Silver Bullet which ultimately caused them to leave Shiho and Akemi. Shiho realizes that she should have never tried to complete the project. This solves the mystery of what Elena said on the final part of the tape left for Shiho's 18th birthday.
• Kaitou Kid's heist has been postponed because the Belltree Express where Jirokichi Suzuki's challenge would have been issued is under investigation. Kaitou Kid now considers Conan to be in his debt.

Manga to anime changes

• Several conversations were removed in the anime adaptation.

• Part of Yukiko and Vermouth's conversation: "Especially since it seems that the kids have met her in her former appearance..."
• Amuro's explanation of why Vermouth was using the Scar Akai disguise on the train: "She's the only one who can completely immerse herself into the role of that man, and you know her well, after all..."
• Gin commenting about how it is good the police and Jirokichi are on the platform: "It's good for us that the boss of the Suzuki Corporation and the top of the Aichi Prefecture police force are here... They'll misunderstand the whole situation as an attempt on their lives..."
• Yukiko cutting off her scream for Ai once Vermouth left her room.
• The carriage attendants commenting on the black smoke from the explosion: "Did the storage hold really blow up? Ye... yes sir. There was a bang, and when I looked out the window, there was black smoke."
• Bourbon's retreat to the front of the car and his wondering about the identity of the man he saw: "Could it be, that silhouette I just saw..."
• Vermouth noting that Conan had been eavesdropping: "He'd been listening to our conversation!"
• Part of Conan's conversation with Kaitou Kid: "You came to scout out the train before your heist."
• Part of Conan's conversation with Kaitou Kid: "But I'm short, so I could see her chin and saw through it all straight away."
• Part of Conan's conversation with Kaitou Kid: "They'll probably try and corner her in the storage hold, where they've set some explosives, so be careful..."
• Part of Conan's conversation with Kaitou Kid: "The reason you chose the wheelchair bound...yes, the real old lady and her maid..."

Trivia
