Ayumi goes to bed and sees a strange shadow on her balcony. It turns out to be the master thief Kaito Kid. Ayumi, still impressed by the movie, wants to know if Kid is Dracula but Kid tells her he isn't, he just needed a little rest and that Ayumi shouldn't tell anyone she's seen him. Kid gently presses a kiss to the back of Ayumi's hand. Suddenly, a police helicopter comes flying in and they hear Inspector Ginzo Nakamori shouting that he's spotted Kid and that they have to catch him now. Kid quickly says goodbye to Ayumi and jumps, opening his hang glider and flying away from the police.

Of which 15 cases are overseas, including America, France, Germany, and 12 others. Overall 152 gemstones have been stolen, with the net worth of 38,925,000,000 yen. From Kaitou Kid, he sent a notice to the police of his next heist. The notice says, "From the dusk of the beast, through the dawn of the virgin.

The Memories Egg was originally a gift from the Russian czar to his wife on Easter Sunday. It belonged to a collection of rare eggs made by famous jeweler Fabergé between 1885 and 1916. So far, fifty of these eggs have been found worldwide, meaning the Memories Egg will be the fifty-first piece. The Suzuki corporation which currently owns the egg plans to display it in the Modern Arts museum in Osaka beginning on August 23rd.
  
The Imperial Easter Egg: A gift from the Russian Tsar to the queen to honor Easter. These rare eggs were created by gem-craftsman, Fabergé between 1885 and 1916. The police had previously confirmed just fifty pieces of the collection. That means, this will be the fifty-first round. The Suzuki Corporation, currently in possession of the egg, beginning August 23rd, will have the egg on display near Osaka City's Park at the Suzuki Modern Arts Museum. As for the code, Nakamori believes that "From the dusk of the lion, through the dawn of the virgin" means the dusk of the final day of Leo, August 22: To the beginning of the Virgo which is August 23rd to September 22nd. That is the time frame for the crime. Next, he believes that "When the second hand upon the clock's face hints to the twelfth symbol" means it relates to the time of the crime, but the police haven't solve the part yet. Finally, "I will take the Memories Egg from the Shining Sky's chamber" meaning Kid will appear at the Castle Tower in Osaka City. That means from the evening of August 22nd through the dawn of August 23rd, he will appear at Osaka Castle to steal the Imperial Easter Egg. This time they will be working alongside the Osaka Precinct. In addition, abiding by Suzuki's wishes, the police invited the famous detective, Kogoro Mouri for help. This time, their objective is to protect the egg with their lives. Even if he is to get away, they must protect the egg. Suddenly, Nakamori persuades the police detectives that they must uphold their police department's reputation by catching the thief and putting him behind bars. They must catch Kaitou Kid no matter what in the name of justice. All the police detectives agree and roar.
+
Inspector Nakamori explains the current state of the investigation. Police believe that "between the dusk of the Lion and the dawn of the Virgin" indicates the day Kaito Kid plans to commit his heist. The astrological sign Leo ends on August 23 and the astrological sign Virgo begins on August 23, meaning Kaito Kid wants to steal the egg between dusk on August 22 and dawn on August 23. As for the next part, "when the second hand on the clock indicates the twelfth symbol", police think this must be a reference to the time Kaito Kid wants to break into the museum, but they don't have a definitive answer yet. Following Director Suzuki's wishes, the police asked Kogoro Mori to help protect the egg. They also believe Kaito Kid will show up at Osaka Castle. Nakamori implores his officers to work together with their colleagues in Osaka and to protect the egg at all costs, telling them it doesn't matter if Kid escapes this time ... but then he changes direction and holds a fiery speech, telling everyone their reputation is on the line if they don't catch Kid as well and that they have to finally put him behind bars. He is met with loud cheers.
  
Kogoro, Ran, and Conan arrives in Osaka at the train station and they meet Sonoko who's waiting for them. They are taking a ride on a limousine and they meet the driver who is Shiro Suzuki's secretary, Masato Nishino. He has been overseas on vacation and he's fluent in English, French, and even German.
+
Kogoro, Ran and Conan get off the train in Osaka and Sonoko picks them up, announcing that she's giving them a ride in the family limousine. She introduces everyone to their driver, her father's secretary Masato Nishino who speaks English, French and German fluently and has already visited lots of overseas countries.
  
At Professor Agasa's house, the Detective Boys think it isn't fair that Conan gets to go to Osaka by himself. Agasa later cheers them up by giving them watermelons. Before they are about to eat, Agasa wants the Detective Boys to answer his quiz. Agasa is starting: Agasa has a lot of grandchildren, how old are they? The Detective Boys are thinking but they cannot answer it. Haibara answers that the age is zero. It remains an egg. Washi (elderly self) is eagle's washi, many Ooku no Mago (grandchildren) means egg's tamago (many grandchildren), the egg is zero in age. Agasa says that is correct and the Detective Boys are impressed at Haibara. After that, they begin eating watermelons.
+
Meanwhile, the Detective Boys visit Professor Agasa and tell him it's unfair that Conan gets to go to Osaka by himself. Agasa cheers them up by bringing them slices of watermelon. When they want to eat, Agasa stops them, saying they are only allowed to eat if they solve his newest riddle: "I (meaning Agasa) have many grandchildren, how old are they?" Ai answers: "zero" which is correct and Agasa asks her to explain her reasoning. The solution is one of Agasa's beloved puns: "washi" (a way for elderly people to say "I") can also be read as "eagle" and "many ooku no mago" (grandchildren) can also mean many "egg's children" (tamago) - and an egg is zero years old.
 +
The Detective Boys are impressed with Ai, as is Agasa, and they all happily eat watermelon.
  
Meanwhile in Osaka, the limousine finally arrives at the Suzuki Modern Arts Museum. When the group got out of the limousine, they see lots of police officers guarding around the museum. While looking, they meet Heiji and Kazuha.
+
The limousine arrives at the Suzuki Modern Arts Museum which is guarded by many police officers. Ran, Sonoko, Kogoro and Conan get out of the car and run into Heiji and Kazuha.
  
In the chairman's room, the chairman of the Suzuki Financial Group and Sonoko's father, Shiro Suzuki is glad meeting the detective, Kogoro Mouri. When he asks Sonoko who are the other two from Osaka, Sonoko introduces Heiji Hattori, the high school detective from Osaka and Kazuha Toyama, Heiji's childhood friend to her father. Later, Chairman Suzuki introduces the people to the group. First is the Russian Embassy's first class representative named Sergei Ovchinnikov, the art dealer named Shoichi Inui, a Chinese woman who's a Romanov Dynasty researcher named Seiran Hoshi and she says, "Ni hao" in Chinese saying, "How are you". Finally, the freelance reporter covering the egg's origins named Ryu Sagawa. When Kogoro asks about the business's cost, Inui answers that it's 800 million. He mentions that if the chairman is willing to sell the egg, he can raise the bid. Until sudden, Sergei tells the chairman that the Imperial Easter Egg belongs in native Russia and asks why sell it to some unknown collector when he can donate it to the National Museum of Mother Russia. Inui gets offended when Sergei calls him unknown. After the conversation about the egg, they left and they'll talk to the chairman later about the egg. Nishino brought the box that contains the egg and places on the table. After that, he was ordered by Chairman Suzuki to bring drinks to the group. When Chairman Suzuki opens the egg, there's a golden model of Tsar Nicholas II and his family inside. Chairman Suzuki inserts the key in the egg and turns it to reveal the trick of Nicholas turning the page of the book. In Fabergé's files old files, they found the plans of the egg. The file shows the picture of the egg and the golden statue of Nicholas II and his family. In the egg's title, "Memories Egg" is translated from Russian to English. It's labeled, "ВОСПОМИНАНИE" on top of the picture of the Imperial Easter Egg. In Russian, it should be: "po spi mai naii." Which is literally translated as memories. Conan asks why is the book itself called Memories and Kogoro answers the Tsar got his children together to read them a story and that's the memory. Conan then asks about the Tsar had this egg made for the queen and wouldn't she feel cheated. Chairman Suzuki answers according to the time the 51st egg was created, Russia was in a period of financial depression. Speaking of that, in Kid's message, he mentioned the Shining Sky's chamber and why would Osaka Castle be shining is what Heiji wonders. Kazuha says the one who built the Osaka Castle, noted the base of Osaka Castle was beautiful, so Kid's saying it is a light shining on Osaka's history. Superintendent Chaki and Inspector Nakamori appears and they have no doubt that Kid will be appearing at the Osaka Castle but they still have no clue about, "When the second hand upon the clock's face hints to the twelfth symbol" means. Kogoro deduces that it's an alphabet letter and the 12th letter in English is the letter L meaning 3 o'clock. Kid will be coming at 3 AM which is what "through the dawn of the virgin" means.
+
Sonoko takes her guests to see her father Shiro who is delighted to see Kogoro. Sonoko introduces Heiji and Kazuha to her father as well and Chairman Suzuki presents his guests: Sergei Ovchinnikov, a high-level representative of the Russian Embassy, Shoichi Inui, an arts dealer, Seiran Hoshi, a Chinese historian specialising in the Romanov Dynasty and freelance reporter Ryu Sagawa, who is currently investigating the Memories Egg and its origins. Kogoro wants to know more about the egg. Inui explains it is valued at 600 million yen and he would be able to afford it if Chairman Suzuki wants to sell the egg. Ovchinnikov angrily interjects, saying the egg belongs to Russia and needs to be sold to the Russian National Museum instead of just "some" arts collector, which offends Inui.  
  
At Naniwa Buddha Shrine, Ran got a good fortune saying, "The one who waits will meet with love once more." Conan and Heiji just left the shrine so they could talk more about Kid's riddle. After that, Conan checks the fortune he got from the shrine and it says, "No one is hurt when a tsunami destroys your home." Conan also found, "Misfortune: Secrets will be revealed."
+
Inui and Ovchinnikov leave, telling the chairman they'll discuss this later. Nishino brings the egg into the room and Chairman Suzuki orders him to get everyone something to drink while he opens the egg. The egg contains several figures, Tsar Nicholas II and his family crowded together around a book, all made of gold. There is a lock for a key in the front of the egg and when a key is inserted there, the pages of the golden book on the Tsar's knees begin to turn. On a photo of the egg that is in the box as well, it says "ВОСПОМИНАНИE" which is a literal translation of the English "Memories Egg" and it also says "memories (RU: Воспоминания)" on the book inside the egg. Conan asks why the book is also called memories and Kogoro says it is obviously meant to show the Tsar and his children looking at a photo album and reminiscing together and that in itself is a memory. The Tsarina is missing from the egg which is odd to Conan as the egg was supposed to be a gift to her, so he wonders if she wouldn't have felt left out. Chairman Suzuki says that the egg was created in a time of great financial hardship for Russia.
  
At the museum, Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro are planning going to a restaurant to have dinner for killing time since Kid will be coming at 3 AM. Nakamori appears and he's about to take the egg. Kogoro asks is it going to the exhibit. Nakamori reveals it's a fake. The police have tried to take the target where Kid mentions in his notice and trap him, but that doesn't work against Kid. Now the plan is to hide it somewhere he doesn't know of. Kogoro asks where will it be, but Nakamori can't tell him. Only Nakamori and his subordinates know the location. Nakamori already checks his subordinates' faces to see if they're Kid or not. Until sudden, Kogoro pulls Nakamori's cheeks with his both hands to see if it's possible that he's Kid. Then Nakamori starts pulling Kogoro's cheeks but they are both fighting by pulling each other's faces. While they are fighting, there's a dove with a hearing device.
+
Heiji brings everyone's attention back to Kid's message and asks the group what the "Shining Sky Chamber" could refer to. Kazuha replies that there is a saying that the fundaments of Osaka Castle are especially beautiful so maybe Kid meant "Osaka Castle is a shining light for the city". Superintendent Chaki and Inspector Nakamori join them and report that they are certain Kid will appear at Osaka Castle but they still haven't figured out when. Kogoro has a sudden "epiphany" and declares that "the twelfth symbol" refers to the 12th letter of the Latin alphabet, which is the letter L. At 3 AM, the hands on a clock form the letter L so that must mean Kid will appear at 3 AM.
  
<spoiler>At night, Conan and Heiji arrived back at the front of the museum. At the front of the museum, there's a woman who's a confectionery shop owner named Natsumi Kousaka and her family's assistant named Kuranosuke Sawabe. She tells Nishino that she requested to meet with the chairman concerning the Imperial Easter Egg on the pamphlet. The egg's picture on the pamphlet is different from the sketch of her great-grandfather's. Heiji checks his watch and thinks it's interesting. If 3 AM is L, soon it'll almost be 'he'. Currently on Heiji's watch is 7:13 PM. When it becomes '''7:20''', it'll become the perfect 'he'. Conan just thought of something: The character 'he' from the code, "From the dusk of the lion to the dawn of the virgin", it's the 12th character of the phrase. In Kid's message, he doesn't mean 3 AM, he means 7:20 PM. Conan tells Heiji that he's going to Osaka Castle. When it rains, Heiji just figured out that the Shining Sky's chamber isn't the Castle Tower but [[wikipedia:Tsūtenkaku|Tsuuten Tower]]. He tells Conan that Kid's on top of the Tsuuten Tower and there is a gleaming weather station. On top of the tower, Kid stands and the dove returns to Kid with the hearing device. Kid pushes the remote to start the fireworks at [[wikipedia:Osaka Castle|Osaka Castle]].</spoiler>
+
Ran, Conan, Heiji and Kazuha visit Naniwa Buddha Shrine and get their fortunes read. Ran is excited about her "good" fortune and the message that tells her "if you wait, you will meet your love once again". Conan and Heiji leave the girls to it and discuss the riddle again, they are not certain that 3 AM really is the right answer. On the way back, Conan has a look at his message from the shrine and is confused - it says "when a tsunami destroys your home, nobody will be hurt", but also, and that alarms him: "a secret will be revealed".
  
At the Japanese Restaurant "Kakahei", Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro are having a good time watching the fireworks while having dinner together. Conan knows that the fireworks at Osaka Castle are to divert attention away from Tsuuten Tower. When Conan asks Nishino where the egg is, he answers that Nakamori took it to another location. Meanwhile, Kid now uses the remote to make the bombs exploded at the power substation (Kansai-electric-power Haginochaya Substation) which made the entire city turned the power outage (Blackout). When few places haves turned the emergency power back on, Kid now knows where the egg is located and it's in the warehouse. Kid flies to the warehouse with his hang glider. Conan went after Kid with the skateboard but later he got stuck in a dead end. He went with Heiji on the motorcycle instead. Once they get to the warehouse, Conan enters and went upstairs. He found Kid stealing the egg and Nakamori with the police detectives knocked out. Kid fires with his card gun to create a smoke and flies away. Conan went down by using the rope and went back on the motorcycle with Heiji. Later, Heiji got hurt when he fell down and tells Conan to keep chasing Kid. While Kid is flying, the mysterious unknown culprit fires at Kid's right eye with the gun and he fell into the sea.
+
Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro plan to eat at a restaurant since it is a while until Kid is supposed to show up. Inspector Nakamori wants to collect the egg and Kogoro asks if he's going to carry it to the exhibit. Nakamori reveals that the egg is fake, the original plan was to take the original egg to the place Kid mentions in his notice and set a trap for him, but Kid is too smart for that, so the police will hide the egg somewhere Kid doesn't know. Nakamori can't tell Kogoro where the original egg is, only he himself and his subordinates know. He already did a "face check" on his subordinates to see if Kid hasn't snuck in, wearing an elaborate disguise. Kogoro suddenly grabs Nakamori, pulling at his cheeks to check if he wasn't actually Kid in disguise, explaining that someone has to check Nakamori as well. Nakamori angrily does the same to Kogoro and while they "wrestle", a white pigeon wearing a record device can be seen on the windowsill.

<spoiler>
 +
Conan and Heiji go back to the museum once it is dark and watch Natsumi Kosaka, the owner of a sweetshop and her family's assistant Kuranosuke Sawabe argue with Nishino. Natsumi asks for an urgent meeting with Chairman Suzuki because she saw the picture of the Imperial Easter egg on the leaflets announcing the exhibition and realised that this egg looked different from the sketch her great-grandfather made.
 +
 
 +
Heiji looks at his watch and says "that's interesting. 3 AM looks like a "L" and now we'll almost have a "he"." It is currently 7:13 in the evening and at 7:20, the hands on the clock form a "he".
 +
 
 +
Conan looks at Heiji in shock. He has just figured out the second part of Kid's message - "he" is the twelfth character of the phrase. Kid didn't mean 3 AM, but 7:20 PM.
 +
Conan and Heiji want to rush to Osaka Castle when it suddenly starts to rain and Heiji realises that "Shining Sky chamber" was meant to refer to the [[wikipedia:Tsūtenkaku|Tsuuten Tower]] because there is a weather station on top of Tsuuten Tower that "shines".
 +
 
 +
Kid gets himself ready on top of Tsuuten Tower and the dove with the recording device returns to him. He gets a remote out of his pocket and sets off fireworks at [[wikipedia:Osaka Castle|Osaka Castle]].</spoiler>
 +
 
 +
Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro have a good time at Restaurant Kakahei and watch the "unexpected" fireworks.
 +
 
 +
Conan says the fireworks were an attempt to divert attention away from Tsuuten Tower and asks Nishino if he knows where the egg is. Nishino replies that Nakamori took it to a different secret location. There is another sudden explosion at Haginochaya electric substation which causes a blackout in the entire city. Kid planted bombs at the station to watch where emergency power is turned back on after the blackout, helping him figure out where the egg actually is. He watches from the top of Tsuuten Tower and realises the egg is in an abandoned warehouse.
 +
 
 +
Kid flies to the warehouse on his hang glider, chased by Conan on his skateboard but Conan gets stuck in a dead end. Heiji picks him up on the motorcycle and they reach Kid's location. Conan enters the warehouse alone and goes upstairs, finding Kid who has already taken the egg and has knocked Nakamori and his officers out. Kid activates his car gun, filling the room with smoke and uses the confusion to fly away. Conan escapes the warehouse and Heiji and Conan chase after Kid on his motorcycle. Heiji injures himself and tells Conan to go run after kid, when suddenly, a shot is fired, aimed at Kid's right eye, who crashes and falls into the sea.

Conan retrieves the egg and Kid's injured pigeon. A wide-range search for Kid's body gets underway, but the police can't find any traces of the master thief and nobody knows if he is still alive.
  
After Conan found the injured dove and the egg, he can't find Kid's body. The police conducted a wide-area search for him and no one knows whether Kid is dead or alive.
+
The following day, the exhibition is cancelled to keep the egg safe. Everyone returns home on a luxury liner belonging to the Suzuki Corporation.
  
The next day on August 23rd, to assure the egg's well being, the exhibition was cancelled so it could be examined. The group returned to Tokyo on the Suzuki's Luxury Liner. In the luxury liner, Natsumi is having a conversation with the chairman. She says her great-grandfather's name is Kiichi, he worked with Fabergé's company as a craftsman. While working in Russia on fine arts, he married a woman and returned to Japan. Not long after her great-grandmother gave birth to a girl. Not long after, she passed away. Nine years later, her great-grandfather died at age forty-five. That baby girl would be Natsumi's grandmother. Her grandfather and parents both passed away in a car accident when she was five years old. She was raised by her grandmother. Unfortunately, she passed away last month. Natsumi previously worked in Paris as a beautician. After coming to Japan, she was looking through her grandmother's possession. When she came across this, it's an old sketch by her great-grandfather. It looks like the middle is missing though. Conan found something strange that there could be two eggs because if it was the same egg, the outline aligns. Conan thinks it was actually a large sketch with two eggs drawn, and now the middle is missing. He now wonders what "Memories" actually mean while examining the egg but until sudden, he found a piece of glass under the egg and touches it. The glass falls off. When he picks it up, he found a strange reflection. Conan tells Nishino to turn off the lights and uses the wristwatch flashlight on the glass to create a projection on the wall. It shows an image of the castle. It's a mirror that's been modified with images, originally from Asia. Legend states followers of the Christian faith used these special type of mirrors to project the cross in secret. The image is the Yokosuka Castle and it was built by Natsumi's great-grandfather, and in turn her grandmother inherited it. Kogoro deduces that while Natsumi's grandfather was fleeing from the Russian Revolution, he brought the two eggs along with him. Then, Kogoro believes that her grandfather sold the gems from second egg which leads to believe that he built the castle and hid the gem-less egg there. He then left the hidden message in the egg's mirror for his descendants to discover. Natsumi brought the key that she found with the design and asks is it important. Kogoro says that must be it and the key to the second's egg's location is somewhere in the castle. Kogoro will be going to the castle with Natsumi including the people that they all wanted to go.
+
On board, Natsumi explains herself to Chairman Suzuki. Her great-grandfather's name was Kiichi, he was a craftsman working for Fabergé in Russia. He fell in love and married a Russian woman and they returned to Japan together. Her great-grandmother had a daughter and died soon after giving birth. Nine years later, her great-grandfather also died, aged just 45 years. Natsumi was raised by her grandmother, Kiichi's daughter, after her grandfather and her parents died in a car accident when Natsumi was five. A month ago her grandmother passed away as well.  
  
Ran and Conan are healing the dove by putting bandages on. Someone knocks on the door and they check who it is. It's actually Sagawa recording with his camera and left. Sonoko, Natsumi, and Nishino appears and enters the room where Conan and Ran are staying. When the dove flaps it's own wings, Nishino fled quickly while covering his nose.
+
Natsumi worked as a beautician in Paris but returned to Japan after her grandmother's death. She found an old sketch by her great-grandfather when she looked through her grandmother's possession, which she now presents to the group. The sketch shows the Memories egg, but it looks like a middle part is missing from the egg. Conan examines the picture and asks if it's possible there were originally two eggs because the outlines would align if you added a middle part. Conan asks himself what "Memories" actually refers to and looks at the egg once again when he notices a small glass piece on the bottom of the egg. When he tries to touch it, it falls out.
  
Sonoko and Conan went to Seiran's door and invites her to go to Ran's room to have fun. Seiran thanks Sonoko for the invitation and gets ready. They notice the back of the picture frame that says, "Grigori". Sonoko asks is it her boyfriend and Seiran says yes while putting down the frame to cover the picture.
+
Conan picks it up and sees that something has been printed on the glass. He asks Nishino to turn the lights off and shines his wristwatch at the glass, making a picture of a castle reflect on the nearest wall. The glass is a mirror  on which images were printed. Legend has it that Christians used these secret mirrors to project crosses onto the nearest wall to worship in secret.
  
In Ran's room, Natsumi told Ran that she has been living in Paris since she was twenty. Natsumi's eyes are gray. Her mother and grandmother have the same color eyes. Seiran also has gray eyes too. Ran mentions that Seiran's name means blue orchid and her name means orchid. Seiran says her name is the Japanese pronounciation, originally it is Chinglan. Sei is Ching, Ran is Lan. Hoshi is Pusi, so her name is Chinglan Pusi. Ran Mouri's name is Lan Maoli and Sonoko Suzuki's name is Yuanzu Lingmu. Seiran and Natsumi both have the same age since Seiran was born on May 5th and Natsumi was born on May 3rd. Once Conan said he was born on May 4th, Ran got suspicious that Conan is Shinichi because that's Shinichi's date of birth but she thinks it's impossible.
+
Natsumi recognises the castle as Yokosuka Castle, built by her great-grandfather and inherited by her grandmother. Kogoro says that Natsumi's great-grandfather must have taken the eggs with him when he fled Russia during the Russian Revolutions. He must have sold the gems from the second egg to build Yokusuka Castle and the egg must have been hid inside. He then left the message in the first egg's mirror for his descendants. Natsumi shows Kogoro the key she found among her grandmother's possessions and asks if the key is important. Kogoro excitedly replies it has to be and that they will all look for the second egg in Yokosuka Castle once they are back in Tokyo.
  
At afternoon, Natsumi and Serian took a seat with Kogoro and the chairman. When Kogoro pours a drink for Seiran, Seiran noticed that Sagawa is wearing a pendant. It's a ring and it's labeled "Maria". It belongs to Tsar Nicholas II's daughter, Maria. After he shows it to Seiran, he went back inside the luxury liner.
+
Ran and Conan care for Kid's pigeon and bandage its injured wings. There is a knock at the door and they open it, revealing Sagawa who records them on his camera and leaves. Sonoko, Natsumi and Nishino join them. The pigeon flaps his wings and Nishino flees in panic, covering his nose.
  
That night at 7:30 PM, Sagawa is murdered, shot in the right eye by the unknown culprit.
+
Sonoko and Conan ask Seiran to join them in Ran's room. Seiran thanks them for the invitation and gets ready when Sonoko and Conan spot a photo frame on her desk that says "Grigori" on the back. Sonoko asks Seiran if that is a photo of her boyfriend and Seiran quickly says yes, putting the photo down on the desk.
 +
 
 +
Natsumi tells Ran that she has been living in Paris since she was twenty. They notice Natsumi has grey eyes, the same colour as her mother and grandmother and - incidentally - Seiran.
 +
 
 +
Ran and Seiran chat about the differences between Japanese and Chinese. Ran says her name is "orchid" and Seiran would be "blue orchid" in Japanese.

Seiran explains that her actual name is Chinglan ("sei" being "ching" in Chinese and "ran" being" lan), she just goes by the Japanese transcription when she is in Japan.
 +
Her last name Hoshi is actually "Pusu" in Chinese. Ran and Sonoko ask her about their Chinese names - Ran would be Lan Maoli and Sonoko Yuanzu Lingmu.
 +
 
 +
Natsumi wonders whether Seiran is her age and they find out they were born in the same year, two days apart - Seiran's birthday is May 5, Natsumi's is May 3.
 +
Conan tells them he was born in the middle of them on May 4, which briefly makes Ran suspicious that he could be Shinichi because May 4 is Shinichi's birthday as well but she quickly dismisses that as nonsense.
 +
 
 +
Natsumi and Seiran join Kogoro and Chairman Suzuki for a drink. Sagawa watches them and Seiran asks Sagawa about the pendant he wears - a ring labeled "Maria".
 +
Sagawa explains that this ring used to belong to Maria, a daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and goes back into the ship.
 +
 
 +
Sagawa is murdered that evening at 7:30 PM, shot in the right eye by the unknown culprit.
 +
 
 +
Nishino discovers the body and runs to tell Kogoro. Kogoro, Ran and Conan accompany a panicked Nishino to Sagawa's bedroom and find his dead body.
  
Nishino went to Kogoro and tells him that Sagawa is dead in his bedroom. When Kogoro, Ran, Conan, and Nishino went to Sagawa's bedroom, they found his dead body.

Kogoro examines the body and says that the murder must have been committed 30 minutes ago. The pendant is missing as well. Kogoro tells Chairman Suzuki to call the police.
 +
 +
Inspector Megure is at police headquarters in Tokyo when he receives the call and the officers decide to take a helicopter to the luxury liner. Shiratori and Takagi join Megure.
  
Kogoro examines the body that he was dead about 30 minutes ago and notices that the pendant has been taken. Kogoro tells the chairman to call the police.
+
Kogoro welcomes his former colleagues and they examine the crime scene together. Kogoro explains about the ring that was taken from Sagawa and says that he thinks this was the motive for the murder. One of their constables finds a pen near the body which looks like the pen that Nishino carries with him so they decide to ask him about it. Nishino is surprised, confirming that this is indeed his pen but says he has no idea how it ended up in Sagawa's room. Kogoro questions him about his alibi. Nishino was preparing dinner for everyone and had just got everything ready, so he planned on telling Sagawa, went to his room and found him dead. He claims he took a shower at 7:10 PM and had a short nap, saying that he must have slept at the time the murder was committed. Takagi comes back from the crime scene and reports that Sagawa's video tapes have gone missing which would explain the chaos in the room. Upon hearing that, Conan suddenly runs off and Ran chases after him. Shiratori stops her, telling her to stay with the others and he will find Conan for her.
  
At the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters, Inspector Megure receives a call and the police are on their way to the luxury liner by taking a ride on a helicopter. Takagi and Shiratori are also coming too. They arrived at the luxury liner and investigates the crime scene. Kogoro tells Megure that the culprit's motive is to steal the ring. Suddenly, the crime scene investigator found a pen which belongs to Nishino. When they went to Nishino by asking him if it's his pen or not, Nishino confirms it and wonders what's it doing in Sagawa's room. Nishino claims he was preparing dinner and went to tell Sagawa but he found him dead. Megure asks where was he at around 7:30 and Nishino answers that he was taking a shower in his room around 7:10 PM, then took a short nap. Takagi went to Megure and reports that the video tapes are missing in his room. That explains why the room was torn apart. Suddenly, Conan just ran off and Ran went after him. While Ran is looking for Conan, Shiratori appears behind her and he tells Ran to go back with the others and he'll search Conan for her.
+
Conan calls Professor Agasa and asks for his help. He wants Agasa to search online for murders that were committed by shooting the victims in their right eye. Agasa tells Conan he'll get to work immediately. When they speak again a while later, Agasa says that he had a look at the ICPO crime database and someone, whose age, gender and origins are currently unknown, is indeed wanted for committing murders in that fashion. The ICPO have given the name "Scorpion" to the unknown serial killer.
  
Conan is on the phone talking to Professor Agasa and he requests for him to search for a criminal who shoots victim's right eye online. Agasa understands and he'll get to work. Later, Conan calls back to Agasa and Agasa says he found some information on the ICPO's criminal database. Age and gender: unknown, a thief wanted for murder. The unknown criminal is called Scorpion.
+
Takagi finds the missing ring under Nishino's bed which makes Nishino the main suspect. Nishino defends himself. Conan has a closer look at the bed and notices a padded pillow on the mattress, asking Nishino if he is allergic to feathers. Nishino says yes and Conan tells everyone that that confirms Nishino couldn't have been the murderer. They found feathers all over the crime scene in Sagawa's room, the murderer searched the entire room and tore the feather pillows open, which is something someone with feather allergies could not have done. Chairman Suzuki confirms Nishino's story, saying Nishino is so severely allergic to feathers that he gets sneezing fits whenever he is near a bird, that's why he uses a different pillow. Sonoko says she now understands why Nishino ran out of Ran's room when he saw the pigeon.
  
In Nishino's room, Takagi found the ring under Nishino's bed which means Nishino is the main suspect of murdering Sagawa. Nishino claims he didn't do it. Conan found a padded pillow and asks Nishino that is he allergic to feathers. Nishino says yes and Conan now confirms that Nishino is not the suspect. Conan reminds the police that in Sagawa's room, there are feathers at the crime scene. The culprit ravaged the entire room, tearing open the feather pillows. Someone with feather allergies wouldn't be able to do it. When the police ask the chairman, he confirms that Nishino is allergic to feathers. Even with just a few feathers, he can't stop sneezing. That's why Nishino uses padded pillows to sleep instead of using feather pillows. Sonoko remembers at that time when Nishino enters Ran's room, he ran out quickly because of the dove. Megure then wonders who is the culprit. Conan mentions about Scorpion, a criminal focused on stealing treasures of the Romanov Dynasty, and often kills by shooting through the right eye, which means Scorpion is the right suspect of killing Sagawa. The same suspect of attacking Kaitou Kid was Scorpion also. Scorpion attacked Kid in order to steal the egg. When Kogoro asks Conan why does he know criminals like Scorpion but Conan nervously can't answer it and suddenly, Shiratori says that he got the information from Agasa. Megure then asks why would Sagawa's missing ring show up in Nishino's room if the culprit is Scorpion. Nishino remembers Sagawa that he met him from three years ago in Asia. Sagawa was recording a video of a weeping girl who just had her house burned down. Nishino told him to stop, but when he didn't, he just punched his face to stop it. When Conan gave hints to Kogoro, he has finally got it. Kogoro deduces that it's two cases intertwined to one. The first case is Sagawa framing Nishino for stealing the ring. To do this, he made it seem as if Nishino stole the ring, that's why he presented it to the group of people. While Nishino was in the shower, Sagawa snuck into the room and hid the ring under the bed. Then, Sagawa took Nishino's pen. This was to complete his plan of stacking evidence against Nishino, but he didn't succeed just as the second case occurred. Sagawa was shot by Scorpion. Kogoro believes the motive for killing is that Scorpion's identity was unveiled on the tapes. Then, Scorpion couldn't find the ring, scavenged the entire room. Shiratori says the lifeboat is missing which means Scorpion has already escaped. Scorpion could be targeting the other egg which Scorpion will be at the Kousaka family's castle. Shiratori will accompany Natsumi to the castle.
+
Megure wonders who the murderer might be. Conan tells everyone about "Scorpion" who specialises in stealing treasures belonging to the Romanov dynasty and shoots his victims through the right eye which makes him a prime suspect for Sagawa's murder and also for the attack on Kaito Kid. Kogoro wants to know how Conan knows such things. Conan has no idea how to answer and panics when suddenly, Shiratori comes to his help, replying that he heard Conan talk to Professor Agasa. Megure says he doesn't understand why the ring was placed in Nishino's room when it was Scorpion who killed Sagawa.  
 +
Nishino remembers that he met Sagawa three years ago in another country. Sagawa was filming a crying girl whose house had just burned down. Nishino told him to stop, but Sagawa didn't listen, so Nishino punched him.
  
The next day on August 24th, the luxury liner arrives at Tokyo. Meanwhile, the Detective Boys are taking a walk. Once they arrived at Agasa's house, they heard Haibara that she and Agasa are going to the castle. After that, they sneaked in Agasa's car. While Agasa is driving a car, the Detective Boys surprised him.
+
Kogoro says it all makes sense to him now. They are actually investigating two different cases - first, Sagawa wanted to frame Nishino for stealing his ring. Sagawa made sure everyone on board saw the ring, then, while Nishino took a shower, Sagawa snuck into his room, placed the ring under his bed and took his pen to stack evidence against Nishino. While he was back in his room, Scorpion shot Sagawa. Scorpion feared their true identity was revealed on Sagawa's videos, shot him and tore the entire room apart, looking for the tapes and the ring. Shiratori says he saw a lifeboat missing which means Scorpion must have already escaped.
  
Shiratori and the group are going to the castle by riding two cars. In a taxi, Sergei asks Kogoro did Sagawa's ring truly belongs to Maria. Kogoro can't say yet, but Inspector Megure is having it examined. Sergei mentions that it's been said Maria was the kindest of the four daughters, and had stunning gray eyes. After the revolution in Russia, the Tsar and his family were executed, but only Maria and the prince's corpses have yet to be found.
+
Everyone agrees that Scorpion is now after the second egg and will show up at Yokosuka Castle. Shiratori decides to accompany Natsumi to the castle as well.
  
The group finally arrived in Yokosuka Castle. The castle is in German style, resembling Neuschwanstein Castle. It's been called a perfect stage for Cinderalla. Conan wonders why is it German style and remembers that Natsumi's grandparents are from Russia. Suddenly, Agasa arrives at the castle and gave Conan a new glasses with the special upgrade that he requested. Inui is late because he said he had an errand and would meet the group. Later, Inui arrives back while carrying a bag.
+
The following morning, August 24, the luxury liner arrives in Tokyo.
  
When they went inside, Kogoro tells Sawabe to lock the doors to keep the children outside from entering the castle. The Detective Boys are trying to find a another entrance to look for the treasure.
+
The Detective Boys are going to meet Professor Agasa and are just about to arrive at his house when they hear Ai telling Agasa "let's go to the castle". Genta decides Agasa isn't going without them so they hide in the back row of the car and pop up as Agasa drives away, surprising him.
  
The group are in the knight's armor gallery, there are pieces displayed featuring Western designs from the medieval times. Next they went to Dame's lounge room. The old mistress often spent the entire day in just in that room. Another room they went is Tsar's gallery. Inui secretly sneaks back into the lounge room and searches the treasure. When he found the vault that's hidden behind the frame, he got the lock pick from his bag and opens the vault. He found the treasure and tried to grab it but got caught with the cuff. The ceiling door opens and the swords fall from the ceiling which it has been linked with chains. It scared Inui and he thought he was going to die. The group found him and Sawabe frees Inui with the key. It is a theft repelling installation Kichi installed. There are many dangerous traps in the castle.
+
Shiratori and the others take two separate cars to the castle. Sergei, sitting next to Kogoro, asks if the police can confirm that Sagawa's ring really belonged to Maria Romanova. Kogoro replies that the ring is currently being examined and they can't say for certain. Sergei says it would be a miracle and tells everyone that Maria is said to have been the kindest of the Tsar's four daughter and had beautiful grey eyes. It is recorded that the entire Romanov family was executed after the Russian revolution but they still haven't found Maria's or her brother's corpses.
 +
 
 +
The cars stop in front of Yokosuka Castle. Everyone immediately notices that it resembles the well-known Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany. Natsumi says the castle has been called "perfect for Cinderella."
 +
Conan wonders why the castle looks German when Natsumi's grandparents were from Russia.
 +
 
 +
Professor Agasa and the Detective Boys turn up and Agasa hands Conan a new pair of glasses, telling him they have "a special upgrade." Inui arrives later than the others, explaining that he had an errand. He now carries a bag.
 +
Everyone enters the castle and Kogoro asks Sawabe to lock the doors so the children can't get in and into danger. The Detective Boys, undeterred, decide to find another entrance to "hunt the treasure".
 +
 
 +
Natsumi shows everyone around. They visit an armor gallery full of medieval Western European designs and the "lady's lounge" where Natsumi's grandmother preferred to spend her days, as well as the "Tsar's Gallery".
 +
Inui sneaks back into the lounge, believing there is a secret door or vault in the room. He searches the lounge and finds a vault hidden behind a large picture, grabs a lockpick from his bag and opens the vault. When he tries to grab the jewellery hidden in the vault, his hand is caught by a metal cuff. A trapdoor in the ceiling opens and swords fall from the ceiling, hanging on chains. Inui yells out in shock and the others find him. Sawabe lets him out using a key on his set of keys and explains that Kiichi created this trap to protect the family treasure from thieves. There are many of these traps all around the castle.
 +
 
 +
Sawabe leads the group into the old study and they notice photos of Kiichi, his family and Kiichi following his hobbies on the walls. Conan can't find a photo of Kiichi's mother so he asks Natsumi if it was taken down. Natsumi replies she has never seen a photo of her grandmother and has no idea what she looked like. Inui points out a photo of Rasputin which even has his signature, G. Rasputin ('''RU:''' Г. Распутин), at the bottom. Ran has no idea who Rasputin was and Kogoro tells her he was called "the most evil man of the century". Inui explains that Rasputin was also known as "the Mad Monk" and is said to have been responsible for the downfall of the Tsar and the ruin of the Romanovs. The Tsar's brother Duke Yusupov killed Rasputin to avenge his brother's family and Rasputin's body was found in a river. One of his eyes was missing.
  
The group went to the study room. There are many pictures of Kichi, his family, and of the activities he enjoyed in life. Conan asks Natsumi where is her great-grandmother's photograph and Natsumi says she hasn't seen one herself. She doesn't even know who she looks like. Inui notices the picture of Rasputin. There is even G. Rasputin's signature. Ran asks her dad who is Rasputin and Kogoro believes he's known as the most evil man of the century. Inui says he was also known as Mad Monk Rasputin. He caused the downfall of the Tsar, and eventually to the ruin of the Romanov Dynasty. He was quite imperious then. After all the evil he had done, the Tsar's brother, Duke Yusoupov killed him. The corpse was found on the river, with an eye missing.

When Kogoro is smoking the cigarette, Conan sees the strange movement of the smoke. Conan asks to borrow it and says that there's a air current coming from below the floor. Conan found the Russian alphabet buttons. It is for opening the door of the basement. Sergei puts the password, "The Last Wizard of the Century" and it finally opens the door. Going down with them, Natsumi explains the origin of the password to be of her great-grandfathers reputation. Meanwhile, the "Detective Boys" have found their own way beneath the castle, and choose to go forward in the tunnels instead of waiting for the professor to get help. With Conan's group who has traveled underground by now, Conan notices a sound made by the four other children, and goes to check it out accompanied by officer Shiratori. Inui, meanwhile, sees a shadowy figure in one direction of the tunnels, and when he chases after it around a corner, he is shot by a silenced handgun held by the figure.
+
Kogoro lights a cigarette and Conan notices the smoke moving unusually so he asks Kogoro to give him the cigarette, holds it up and says there must be an air current coming from the floor. They peel back a carpet and find a keyboard with buttons with the Russian alphabet on the floor. Sergei says he has an idea about the password and types "The Last Wizard of the Century" in Russian Последний волшебник века (Posledniy volshebnik veka), at which point the door opens and they see a staircase leading into the basement.
 +
 
 +
Natsumi goes downstairs with her visitors and explains that "the last wizard of the century" was her great-grandfather's nickname.
 +
 
 +
In the meantime the Detective Boys found a different entrance to the castle, but they all fall through a trapdoor into the basement. Instead of waiting for Professor Agasa to come and help, they decide to follow one of the tunnels to find the "treasure". Conan hears them making a sound in a nearby tunnel and, accompanied by Inspector Shiratori, goes to find the source of the noise.  
 +
 
 +
Inui notices a shadowy figure in another tunnel, chases after it and he is shot in his right eye by the unknown killer.

Conan and Shiratori find the Detective Boys and after Conan told them off, they continue their search together with the rest of the group. They eventually end up in front of a massive wall with ornate engravings and paintings. Conan immediately figures the mechanism out and tells Inspector Shiratori to shine his flashlight at a two-headed vulture on one of the paintings which wears a single crown encrusted with jewels. The beam of light activates a photo-switch in the crown and a set of hidden stairs appears which lead further underground.
  
After the "Detective Boys" and Conan's party have grouped together, the collective party come to a massive wall in the tunnel, covered in ornate engravings and pictures. Almost immediately, Conan figures it out, telling Officer Shiratori to shine his flashlight beam exclusively at a two-headed vulture drawing's single crown. The concentrated beam of light triggers the crown like a switch, as it is made out of photometer, and a set of hidden stairs appears, leading to a chamber even further underground.
+
The investigation party finds itself in a chamber designed like a crypt with a small shrine surrounded by water. In the middle of the chamber there is a massive coffin with a lock made out of copper. Natsumi realises that the key she found among her great-grandfather's possessions could fit into the lock and it does. When she opens it, they find a skeleton in the coffin which holds the second Memories egg on its chest. The corpse is female and Natsumi says it must be her great-grandmother who could not get a funeral in an ordinary cemetery because she was Russian. They carefully retrieve the egg and notice it is empty. Ayumi asks if the egg couldn't be a [[Wikipedia:Matryoshka doll|Matryoshka Doll]], maybe it needs to be put into something else or something else needs to be put into the egg. Shiratori reveals that he had the first egg with him all along, having borrowed it from Sonoko's father. They insert the first egg into the larger second egg, but nothing happens. Conan notices another round piece of glass on the bottom and wonders if the many round glass pieces on the inside and outside of both eggs are a lens. He asks everyone to extinguish the candles in the chamber. Shiratori's flashlight is placed into a candle holder shaped like a goblet and they put the eggs on top of the flashlight.  
  
The inside of the chamber is designed like a crypt, with a small shrine surrounded on all sides by water. A massive copper coffin lies in the center of the chamber, which Natsumi opens with the key that she had found in her great-grandfather's sketches. Kogoro heaves open the lid of the coffin, revealing a corpse inside, with the second egg placed on the chest. When asked about the identity of the corpse, Natsumi supposes that it is that of her great-grandmother, who could not be buried in a regular cemetery because of her Russian roots. When opened, however, the egg is revealed to be empty. Ayumi suggests that the egg is like a [[Wikipedia:Matryoshka doll|Matryoshka Doll]], in that it needs to be put into something, or something needs to be put in it. At this point, Officer Shiratori reveals that he had borrowed the first egg from Sonoko's father, and had it in his bag all along. The first egg is placed into the larger second egg, but nothing happens. Conan figures that the many pieces of glass inside and outside both eggs are lens, and tells everybody else to extinguish the candles lighting the chamber. Next, Officer Shiratori's flashlight is placed vertically into the center of a goblet-like holder, and the two eggs, one inside the other, on top.
+
The light triggers a switch and the mechanisms inside both eggs. Multiple beams of light are projected out from the eggs onto the walls, revealing pictures of Nicholas II's family and friends. They now realise that the golden figurines inside the first egg are looking through a photo album and that's why the eggs are called "Memories eggs". They notice Kiichi among the pictures, together with a woman with grey eyes which has to be Natsumi'S great-grandmother. The lights begin to fade and Ai wonders why Rasputin was missing from the pictures when he was such a close friend of the Tsar's. Conan also wonders where Inui went.
  
The vertical beam of light shines through the combined mechanisms of both eggs, triggering a photometer switch inside them. What results is multiple beams of light being projected from the eggs and hitting the walls of the chamber, revealing pictures of Nicholas II's family and friends. Everybody realizes that the golden figurines inside the first egg aren't reading a book, but a photo album - that's why the eggs are called "MEMORIES". Amongst the pictures are one of Natsumi's great-grandfather - alongside her great-grandmother, who she had never seen before in her life. When the lights fade, Conan begins to wonder where Inui went, just as Ai drops a cryptic question - why was Rasputin not amongst the pictures in the lights? After all, he was close to Nicholas II. Just then, Conan notices a laser sight creeping up Kogoro's body, over his right eye, and manages to knock him out of the bullet's path by throwing his flashlight at him.
+
Just before it gets dark, Conan sees a laser point tracking Kogoro's body and creeping up to his right eye. There is a shot but Conan saves Kogoro by hitting him with his flashlight.

However, the unknown assailant is now targeting Ran, who Conan manages to push out of the way as well (and only further deepening Ran's suspicions that Conan and Shinichi are somehow connected).

<spoiler>As Conan, Shiratori, and the culprit near the stairs leading to the castle (with Conan tripping over Inui's corpse), the culprit plants a grenade near the stairs, using the explosion to cause a cave-in. Conan gets through, but Shiratori is left behind. As he nears the stairs, however, the culprit presses the reset button on the keypad, causing the door in the floor to slide back into place. Conan, however, quickly discovers a switch by the stairs to re-open the door from the inside. The culprit is nearly out of the castle by now, and throws a tank of propane onto the ground, using a torch to light it on fire with the intent to burn the entire castle down. Conan, however, has already made it out of the underground chambers, and confronts the assailant in the room, which is full of suits of armor. Interchanging his voice using his bow-tie, Conan reveals Scorpion's true identity - the Romanov Dynasty researcher - '''Seiran Hoshi'''. She pretends to be Chinese but she's actually Russian and her name is in fact an anagram of Rasputin. Not only that, but a descendant of Rasputin. Becoming steadily more hysteric, Seiran begins to shoot at every sound she hears, while Conan continues to switch between voices and explains that Seiran thought that the eggs should have belonged to Rasputin, and combed the world for it as Scorpion, developing her habit of shooting people in the right eye because Rasputin's body was discovered without a right eye.
+
<spoiler> Conan, Shiratori and the culprit reach the last staircase and Conan nearly falls over Inui's dead body. The culprit throws a hand grenade at the staircase as they run up, wanting to let the cellar cave in. Conan escapes but Shiratori is trapped behind the rubble. The culprit runs out of the staircase and presses the reset button on the keypad, causing the trap door to close. Conan quickly discovers a switch near the top of the staircase that reopens the door from the basement. The culprit has almost made it out of the castle and empties a tank of propane as they run, lighting it with a torch to burn the castle down.
 +
 
 +
Conan catches up with the culprit in the armory and uses his bowtie to address Scorpion with her true name - '''Seiran Hoshi'''. She pretends to be Chinese but is actually Russian, her Chinese name (Chinglan Pusu) is a clue to it as it is an anagram of Rasputin. Conan also claims Seiran is a direct descendant of Rasputin, that's why she had a photo of him in her room on the luxury liner. Seiran erupts in fury, shooting at everything she hears while Conan changes between voices, telling her how he found her on the ICPO database and how she gave herself away.

At this point, Conan reveals himself and continues with his deduction in the burning room, that Seiran killed Ryu because of his habit of carrying his camcorder everywhere, and she thought that he had captured a picture of Rasputin in her room on the ship, and Inui was killed because he saw her preparing her silenced handgun. However, her reason for attempting to kill Kogoro and subsequently Ran was merely because Kogoro had insulted Rasputin earlier. Angrily, Seiran prepares to shoot Conan with the last bullet in her handgun, to which Conan tells her to go ahead and do. However, the bullet merely bounces off of Conan's glasses (due to Agasa's upgrade with bulletproof glass). While Seiran reloads the handgun, Conan activates his kick power-boosting sneakers and prepares to kick the head of one of the fallen armors at her, and just as Seiran points the reloaded gun at Conan, a playing card comes out of nowhere and knocks the gun out of her hands. Officer Shiratori emerges from the flames, carrying Seiran and telling Conan to come with him. Though Conan is hesitant, the castle collapsing from the heat of the fire forces him to follow Shiratori. Meanwhile, the others have gotten out via the entrance that the "Detective Boys" entered the tunnels through in the first place, with help from the recently-arrived Agasa.
+
At this point, Conan reveals himself and continues to explain his deductions while the room begins to burn. He says Sagawa was killed because he filmed everything with his camera and Seiran thought he had spotted the photo of Rasputin she carried with her. She killed Inui because he saw her preparing her handgun and she attacked Kogoro and Ran because Kogoro insulted Rasputin.
 +
Seiran aims at Conan with her handgun and Conan calmly tells her to go ahead. The bullet bounces off his glasses because he asked Agasa to upgrade them with bulletproof glass to protect himself against Scorpion.
 +
While Seiran reloads the handgun, Conan activates his power-kick-shoes and wants to kick the helmet off one of the suits of armor at her.
 +
 
 +
Just as she points the gun at Conan again, a playing card comes flying through the room and knocks the gun out of her hands. Shiratori appears in the room, grabs an unconscious Seiran and tells Conan to follow him. Conan is initially hesitant but the castle has begun to collapse, leaving him no choice.
 +
 
 +
The rest of the party manage to escape via the entrance the Detective Boys discovered, with help from Professor Agasa who returned bringing a rope and other utensils.
 +
 
 +
The castle collapses and the Detective Boys are inconsolable, fearing Conan died in the fire.
 +
 
 +
Suddenly Conan appears behind them with the eggs in hand. He hands the eggs to Natsumi and tells everyone that Shiratori has arrested Scorpion, better known as Seiran.
 +
Firefighters arrive at the scene and are quickly able to get the fire under control.
 +
 
 +
Natsumi decides she wants to remove her great-grandmother's corpse and bury her in the family tomb while everyone else wonders about Kaito Kid.
 +
Conan is certain Kaito Kid is still alive.
 +
 
 +
Back home, Ran is emotional, confronting Conan why he "looked so much like Shinichi" when he pushed her out of the path of the bullet.
 +
 
 +
Conan can't bear to see her cry and he almost begins to reveal himself when, suddenly, to his immense relief, "a Shinichi" appears at the agency, drenched from head to toe as it has begun to rain heavily.
 +
Ran runs to get a towel for "Shinichi", who walks out again.
 +
 
 +
Conan follows "Shinichi" out of the Detective Agency and tells him he is Kaito Kid, as evidenced by the soot still on his shoulders. Conan also says he knows Kid was disguised as Shiratori for most of the investigation, actual Shiratori had been nowhere near Osaka. They discuss Natsumi's great-grandmother - she was actually Maria Romanova, the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and Kid explains that he wanted to steal the egg to give it back to Maria, its rightful owner. Kiichi Kosaka fell in love with Maria during the Russian Revolution and they fled to Japan together, taking the eggs with them. After Maria's death, Kiichi used her inheritance to build a magnificqent castle as her tomb.
 +
 
 +
Conan asks Kid why he helped them as well and Kid replies "some mysteries had better stay mysteries", just as Ran returns with a towel. Kid disappears in a flurry of pigeons. Conan thinks it is crystal clear why Kid got involved - Ran helped his pigeon and he merely returned the favour.
  
The "Detective Boys" cry out for Conan, fearing that he has perished in the burning castle, when Conan appears behind them, giving the eggs to Natsumi. According to him, Shiratori had already taken Scorpion - Seiran - away, and fire engines soon arrive to put out the burning castle. Natsumi discusses plans to relocate her great-grandmother's corpse to a cemetery, alongside the other members of her family, while the others discuss the fate of Kaitou Kid - who Conan believes is still alive. Back at the Mouri Detective Agency, Ran muses over how much Conan looked like Shinichi when he pushed her out of the bullet's path. At the sight of Ran's tears, Conan almost tells her who he really is - until what appears to be Shinichi walks into the agency. While Ran rushes to get a towel, "Shinichi" leaves the agency, until Conan stops him outside and reveals him to be Kaitou Kid, as evidenced by the soot on his shoulders. Conan further states that he was Shiratori for most of the case, the real one having been in another city at the time of the case. Furthermore, it's revealed that Natsumi's great-grandmother was Nicholas II's daughter, Maria, and Kid wanted to steal the egg to give it back to her, as she was its rightful owner. During the Russian Revolution, Natsumi's great-grandfather fell in love with her, and the pair eloped to Japan, carrying the eggs with them. When Maria died, Natsumi's great-grandfather used her fortune to build a magnificent castle to act as her tomb.
+
After the credits, Ran scolds Conan for letting "Shinichi" leave.
 +
Conan replies "Shinichi" was in a hurry and that he will see Ran soon again.
  
Kid stops Conan at this point, telling him "some mysteries are better left as mysteries", just as Ran arrives with a towel. Kid then disappears in a flurry of doves, while Conan thinks that there is no mystery about why Kid helped him - Ran had nursed his pigeon back to health, and he was merely returning the favor. After the credits, Ran is seen scolding Conan for not stopping "Shinichi" from leaving. Conan maintains that "Shinichi" said he will be back someday. Ran, not soothed in the least, performs several karate moves on the towel she had brought for Shinichi, saying that that is what she will do to Shinichi when she sees him again. Conan sighs in relief at how he has not changed back yet or told Ran his identity.</spoiler>
+
Ran, still fuming, performs some karate kicks on the towel and says to Conan "this is what I'm gonna do to that idiot when he's back."
 +
Conan sighs in relief, happy that his secret was kept safe for another day.

Case

Situation

Ayumi watches a vampire movie on TV. The movie has just reached an exciting part, a vampire meets a woman dressed in white, when Ayumi's mother comes in and tells her to go to bed. Ayumi asks if she can continue watching for a bit but her mother reminds her that she has to go to school and that her class is going swimming the following day.

Ayumi goes to bed and sees a strange shadow on her balcony. It turns out to be the master thief Kaito Kid. Ayumi, still impressed by the movie, wants to know if Kid is Dracula but Kid tells her he isn't, he just needed a little rest and that Ayumi shouldn't tell anyone she's seen him. Kid gently presses a kiss to the back of Ayumi's hand. Suddenly, a police helicopter comes flying in and they hear Inspector Ginzo Nakamori shouting that he's spotted Kid and that they have to catch him now. Kid quickly says goodbye to Ayumi and jumps, opening his hang glider and flying away from the police.

At school, Ayumi excitedly tells her friends that she met "handsome" Kaito Kid. Conan thinks that he is going to catch the master thief one day.

On August 19, the police hold a meeting about Kaito Kid at Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters. They start by giving an overview of Kid's criminal career: The thief with the case number 1412, better known as Kaito Kid, has committed 134 heists in Japan, the USA, France, Germany and 12 other overseas countries, stealing jewels worth a total of 38.925.000.000 yen. Kid recently announced his new heist in his usual cryptic fashion: "Between the dusk of the Lion and the dawn of the Virgin, when the second hand on the clock indicates the twelfth symbol, I will take the Memories Egg from Shining Sky chamber. The last wizard of the century, Kaito Kid."

The Memories Egg is a priceless egg made by famous jeweler Fabergé and belonged to the Russian Imperial family, the Romanovs. It was recently discovered in a collection of antiquities belonging to the Suzuki corporation.

Heist

Imperial Easter Egg.jpg

Thief: Kaitou Kid
Target: Imperial Easter Egg
Owner: Suzuki Financial Group
Location: Suzuki Modern Art Museum in Osaka
Date: August 22
Advanced Notice: Between the dusk of the Lion and the dawn of the Virgin, when the second hand on the clock indicates the twelfth symbol, I will take the Memories Egg from Shining Sky Chamber.

The Memories Egg was originally a gift from the Russian czar to his wife on Easter Sunday. It belonged to a collection of rare eggs made by famous jeweler Fabergé between 1885 and 1916. So far, fifty of these eggs have been found worldwide, meaning the Memories Egg will be the fifty-first piece. The Suzuki corporation which currently owns the egg plans to display it in the Modern Arts museum in Osaka beginning on August 23rd.

Inspector Nakamori explains the current state of the investigation. Police believe that "between the dusk of the Lion and the dawn of the Virgin" indicates the day Kaito Kid plans to commit his heist. The astrological sign Leo ends on August 23 and the astrological sign Virgo begins on August 23, meaning Kaito Kid wants to steal the egg between dusk on August 22 and dawn on August 23. As for the next part, "when the second hand on the clock indicates the twelfth symbol", police think this must be a reference to the time Kaito Kid wants to break into the museum, but they don't have a definitive answer yet. Following Director Suzuki's wishes, the police asked Kogoro Mori to help protect the egg. They also believe Kaito Kid will show up at Osaka Castle. Nakamori implores his officers to work together with their colleagues in Osaka and to protect the egg at all costs, telling them it doesn't matter if Kid escapes this time ... but then he changes direction and holds a fiery speech, telling everyone their reputation is on the line if they don't catch Kid as well and that they have to finally put him behind bars. He is met with loud cheers.

Kogoro, Ran and Conan get off the train in Osaka and Sonoko picks them up, announcing that she's giving them a ride in the family limousine. She introduces everyone to their driver, her father's secretary Masato Nishino who speaks English, French and German fluently and has already visited lots of overseas countries.

Meanwhile, the Detective Boys visit Professor Agasa and tell him it's unfair that Conan gets to go to Osaka by himself. Agasa cheers them up by bringing them slices of watermelon. When they want to eat, Agasa stops them, saying they are only allowed to eat if they solve his newest riddle: "I (meaning Agasa) have many grandchildren, how old are they?" Ai answers: "zero" which is correct and Agasa asks her to explain her reasoning. The solution is one of Agasa's beloved puns: "washi" (a way for elderly people to say "I") can also be read as "eagle" and "many ooku no mago" (grandchildren) can also mean many "egg's children" (tamago) - and an egg is zero years old. The Detective Boys are impressed with Ai, as is Agasa, and they all happily eat watermelon.

The limousine arrives at the Suzuki Modern Arts Museum which is guarded by many police officers. Ran, Sonoko, Kogoro and Conan get out of the car and run into Heiji and Kazuha.

Sonoko takes her guests to see her father Shiro who is delighted to see Kogoro. Sonoko introduces Heiji and Kazuha to her father as well and Chairman Suzuki presents his guests: Sergei Ovchinnikov, a high-level representative of the Russian Embassy, Shoichi Inui, an arts dealer, Seiran Hoshi, a Chinese historian specialising in the Romanov Dynasty and freelance reporter Ryu Sagawa, who is currently investigating the Memories Egg and its origins. Kogoro wants to know more about the egg. Inui explains it is valued at 600 million yen and he would be able to afford it if Chairman Suzuki wants to sell the egg. Ovchinnikov angrily interjects, saying the egg belongs to Russia and needs to be sold to the Russian National Museum instead of just "some" arts collector, which offends Inui.

Inui and Ovchinnikov leave, telling the chairman they'll discuss this later. Nishino brings the egg into the room and Chairman Suzuki orders him to get everyone something to drink while he opens the egg. The egg contains several figures, Tsar Nicholas II and his family crowded together around a book, all made of gold. There is a lock for a key in the front of the egg and when a key is inserted there, the pages of the golden book on the Tsar's knees begin to turn. On a photo of the egg that is in the box as well, it says "ВОСПОМИНАНИE" which is a literal translation of the English "Memories Egg" and it also says "memories (RU: Воспоминания)" on the book inside the egg. Conan asks why the book is also called memories and Kogoro says it is obviously meant to show the Tsar and his children looking at a photo album and reminiscing together and that in itself is a memory. The Tsarina is missing from the egg which is odd to Conan as the egg was supposed to be a gift to her, so he wonders if she wouldn't have felt left out. Chairman Suzuki says that the egg was created in a time of great financial hardship for Russia.

Heiji brings everyone's attention back to Kid's message and asks the group what the "Shining Sky Chamber" could refer to. Kazuha replies that there is a saying that the fundaments of Osaka Castle are especially beautiful so maybe Kid meant "Osaka Castle is a shining light for the city". Superintendent Chaki and Inspector Nakamori join them and report that they are certain Kid will appear at Osaka Castle but they still haven't figured out when. Kogoro has a sudden "epiphany" and declares that "the twelfth symbol" refers to the 12th letter of the Latin alphabet, which is the letter L. At 3 AM, the hands on a clock form the letter L so that must mean Kid will appear at 3 AM.

Ran, Conan, Heiji and Kazuha visit Naniwa Buddha Shrine and get their fortunes read. Ran is excited about her "good" fortune and the message that tells her "if you wait, you will meet your love once again". Conan and Heiji leave the girls to it and discuss the riddle again, they are not certain that 3 AM really is the right answer. On the way back, Conan has a look at his message from the shrine and is confused - it says "when a tsunami destroys your home, nobody will be hurt", but also, and that alarms him: "a secret will be revealed".

Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro plan to eat at a restaurant since it is a while until Kid is supposed to show up. Inspector Nakamori wants to collect the egg and Kogoro asks if he's going to carry it to the exhibit. Nakamori reveals that the egg is fake, the original plan was to take the original egg to the place Kid mentions in his notice and set a trap for him, but Kid is too smart for that, so the police will hide the egg somewhere Kid doesn't know. Nakamori can't tell Kogoro where the original egg is, only he himself and his subordinates know. He already did a "face check" on his subordinates to see if Kid hasn't snuck in, wearing an elaborate disguise. Kogoro suddenly grabs Nakamori, pulling at his cheeks to check if he wasn't actually Kid in disguise, explaining that someone has to check Nakamori as well. Nakamori angrily does the same to Kogoro and while they "wrestle", a white pigeon wearing a record device can be seen on the windowsill.

Chairman Suzuki and Kogoro have a good time at Restaurant Kakahei and watch the "unexpected" fireworks.

Conan says the fireworks were an attempt to divert attention away from Tsuuten Tower and asks Nishino if he knows where the egg is. Nishino replies that Nakamori took it to a different secret location. There is another sudden explosion at Haginochaya electric substation which causes a blackout in the entire city. Kid planted bombs at the station to watch where emergency power is turned back on after the blackout, helping him figure out where the egg actually is. He watches from the top of Tsuuten Tower and realises the egg is in an abandoned warehouse.

Kid flies to the warehouse on his hang glider, chased by Conan on his skateboard but Conan gets stuck in a dead end. Heiji picks him up on the motorcycle and they reach Kid's location. Conan enters the warehouse alone and goes upstairs, finding Kid who has already taken the egg and has knocked Nakamori and his officers out. Kid activates his car gun, filling the room with smoke and uses the confusion to fly away. Conan escapes the warehouse and Heiji and Conan chase after Kid on his motorcycle. Heiji injures himself and tells Conan to go run after kid, when suddenly, a shot is fired, aimed at Kid's right eye, who crashes and falls into the sea.

Murder?

Vlcsnap-2013-09-20-18h38m39s148.png

Location: Sky of Osaka
Victim: Kaitou Kid
Cause of death (?): Gunshot wound (Right eye)
Suspects: Scorpion
The culprit shot Kid's right eye and let him fall in the sea

Conan retrieves the egg and Kid's injured pigeon. A wide-range search for Kid's body gets underway, but the police can't find any traces of the master thief and nobody knows if he is still alive.

The following day, the exhibition is cancelled to keep the egg safe. Everyone returns home on a luxury liner belonging to the Suzuki Corporation.

On board, Natsumi explains herself to Chairman Suzuki. Her great-grandfather's name was Kiichi, he was a craftsman working for Fabergé in Russia. He fell in love and married a Russian woman and they returned to Japan together. Her great-grandmother had a daughter and died soon after giving birth. Nine years later, her great-grandfather also died, aged just 45 years. Natsumi was raised by her grandmother, Kiichi's daughter, after her grandfather and her parents died in a car accident when Natsumi was five. A month ago her grandmother passed away as well.

Natsumi worked as a beautician in Paris but returned to Japan after her grandmother's death. She found an old sketch by her great-grandfather when she looked through her grandmother's possession, which she now presents to the group. The sketch shows the Memories egg, but it looks like a middle part is missing from the egg. Conan examines the picture and asks if it's possible there were originally two eggs because the outlines would align if you added a middle part. Conan asks himself what "Memories" actually refers to and looks at the egg once again when he notices a small glass piece on the bottom of the egg. When he tries to touch it, it falls out.

Conan picks it up and sees that something has been printed on the glass. He asks Nishino to turn the lights off and shines his wristwatch at the glass, making a picture of a castle reflect on the nearest wall. The glass is a mirror on which images were printed. Legend has it that Christians used these secret mirrors to project crosses onto the nearest wall to worship in secret.

Natsumi recognises the castle as Yokosuka Castle, built by her great-grandfather and inherited by her grandmother. Kogoro says that Natsumi's great-grandfather must have taken the eggs with him when he fled Russia during the Russian Revolutions. He must have sold the gems from the second egg to build Yokusuka Castle and the egg must have been hid inside. He then left the message in the first egg's mirror for his descendants. Natsumi shows Kogoro the key she found among her grandmother's possessions and asks if the key is important. Kogoro excitedly replies it has to be and that they will all look for the second egg in Yokosuka Castle once they are back in Tokyo.

Ran and Conan care for Kid's pigeon and bandage its injured wings. There is a knock at the door and they open it, revealing Sagawa who records them on his camera and leaves. Sonoko, Natsumi and Nishino join them. The pigeon flaps his wings and Nishino flees in panic, covering his nose.

Sonoko and Conan ask Seiran to join them in Ran's room. Seiran thanks them for the invitation and gets ready when Sonoko and Conan spot a photo frame on her desk that says "Grigori" on the back. Sonoko asks Seiran if that is a photo of her boyfriend and Seiran quickly says yes, putting the photo down on the desk.

Natsumi tells Ran that she has been living in Paris since she was twenty. They notice Natsumi has grey eyes, the same colour as her mother and grandmother and - incidentally - Seiran.

Ran and Seiran chat about the differences between Japanese and Chinese. Ran says her name is "orchid" and Seiran would be "blue orchid" in Japanese. Seiran explains that her actual name is Chinglan ("sei" being "ching" in Chinese and "ran" being" lan), she just goes by the Japanese transcription when she is in Japan. Her last name Hoshi is actually "Pusu" in Chinese. Ran and Sonoko ask her about their Chinese names - Ran would be Lan Maoli and Sonoko Yuanzu Lingmu.

Natsumi wonders whether Seiran is her age and they find out they were born in the same year, two days apart - Seiran's birthday is May 5, Natsumi's is May 3. Conan tells them he was born in the middle of them on May 4, which briefly makes Ran suspicious that he could be Shinichi because May 4 is Shinichi's birthday as well but she quickly dismisses that as nonsense.

Natsumi and Seiran join Kogoro and Chairman Suzuki for a drink. Sagawa watches them and Seiran asks Sagawa about the pendant he wears - a ring labeled "Maria". Sagawa explains that this ring used to belong to Maria, a daughter of Tsar Nicholas II and goes back into the ship.

Sagawa is murdered that evening at 7:30 PM, shot in the right eye by the unknown culprit.

Nishino discovers the body and runs to tell Kogoro. Kogoro, Ran and Conan accompany a panicked Nishino to Sagawa's bedroom and find his dead body.


Murder

Vlcsnap-2013-09-20-18h42m59s212.png

Location: Suzuki's Luxury Liner
Victim: Ryu Sagawa
Age: 32 years old
Time: 7:30 PM
Cause of death: Gunshot wound (right eye)
Suspects: Scorpion
Scorpion used a laser sight

Kogoro examines the body and says that the murder must have been committed 30 minutes ago. The pendant is missing as well. Kogoro tells Chairman Suzuki to call the police.

Inspector Megure is at police headquarters in Tokyo when he receives the call and the officers decide to take a helicopter to the luxury liner. Shiratori and Takagi join Megure.

Kogoro welcomes his former colleagues and they examine the crime scene together. Kogoro explains about the ring that was taken from Sagawa and says that he thinks this was the motive for the murder. One of their constables finds a pen near the body which looks like the pen that Nishino carries with him so they decide to ask him about it. Nishino is surprised, confirming that this is indeed his pen but says he has no idea how it ended up in Sagawa's room. Kogoro questions him about his alibi. Nishino was preparing dinner for everyone and had just got everything ready, so he planned on telling Sagawa, went to his room and found him dead. He claims he took a shower at 7:10 PM and had a short nap, saying that he must have slept at the time the murder was committed. Takagi comes back from the crime scene and reports that Sagawa's video tapes have gone missing which would explain the chaos in the room. Upon hearing that, Conan suddenly runs off and Ran chases after him. Shiratori stops her, telling her to stay with the others and he will find Conan for her.

Conan calls Professor Agasa and asks for his help. He wants Agasa to search online for murders that were committed by shooting the victims in their right eye. Agasa tells Conan he'll get to work immediately. When they speak again a while later, Agasa says that he had a look at the ICPO crime database and someone, whose age, gender and origins are currently unknown, is indeed wanted for committing murders in that fashion. The ICPO have given the name "Scorpion" to the unknown serial killer.

Takagi finds the missing ring under Nishino's bed which makes Nishino the main suspect. Nishino defends himself. Conan has a closer look at the bed and notices a padded pillow on the mattress, asking Nishino if he is allergic to feathers. Nishino says yes and Conan tells everyone that that confirms Nishino couldn't have been the murderer. They found feathers all over the crime scene in Sagawa's room, the murderer searched the entire room and tore the feather pillows open, which is something someone with feather allergies could not have done. Chairman Suzuki confirms Nishino's story, saying Nishino is so severely allergic to feathers that he gets sneezing fits whenever he is near a bird, that's why he uses a different pillow. Sonoko says she now understands why Nishino ran out of Ran's room when he saw the pigeon.

Megure wonders who the murderer might be. Conan tells everyone about "Scorpion" who specialises in stealing treasures belonging to the Romanov dynasty and shoots his victims through the right eye which makes him a prime suspect for Sagawa's murder and also for the attack on Kaito Kid. Kogoro wants to know how Conan knows such things. Conan has no idea how to answer and panics when suddenly, Shiratori comes to his help, replying that he heard Conan talk to Professor Agasa. Megure says he doesn't understand why the ring was placed in Nishino's room when it was Scorpion who killed Sagawa. Nishino remembers that he met Sagawa three years ago in another country. Sagawa was filming a crying girl whose house had just burned down. Nishino told him to stop, but Sagawa didn't listen, so Nishino punched him.

Kogoro says it all makes sense to him now. They are actually investigating two different cases - first, Sagawa wanted to frame Nishino for stealing his ring. Sagawa made sure everyone on board saw the ring, then, while Nishino took a shower, Sagawa snuck into his room, placed the ring under his bed and took his pen to stack evidence against Nishino. While he was back in his room, Scorpion shot Sagawa. Scorpion feared their true identity was revealed on Sagawa's videos, shot him and tore the entire room apart, looking for the tapes and the ring. Shiratori says he saw a lifeboat missing which means Scorpion must have already escaped.

Everyone agrees that Scorpion is now after the second egg and will show up at Yokosuka Castle. Shiratori decides to accompany Natsumi to the castle as well.

The following morning, August 24, the luxury liner arrives in Tokyo.

The Detective Boys are going to meet Professor Agasa and are just about to arrive at his house when they hear Ai telling Agasa "let's go to the castle". Genta decides Agasa isn't going without them so they hide in the back row of the car and pop up as Agasa drives away, surprising him.

Shiratori and the others take two separate cars to the castle. Sergei, sitting next to Kogoro, asks if the police can confirm that Sagawa's ring really belonged to Maria Romanova. Kogoro replies that the ring is currently being examined and they can't say for certain. Sergei says it would be a miracle and tells everyone that Maria is said to have been the kindest of the Tsar's four daughter and had beautiful grey eyes. It is recorded that the entire Romanov family was executed after the Russian revolution but they still haven't found Maria's or her brother's corpses.

The cars stop in front of Yokosuka Castle. Everyone immediately notices that it resembles the well-known Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany. Natsumi says the castle has been called "perfect for Cinderella." Conan wonders why the castle looks German when Natsumi's grandparents were from Russia.

Professor Agasa and the Detective Boys turn up and Agasa hands Conan a new pair of glasses, telling him they have "a special upgrade." Inui arrives later than the others, explaining that he had an errand. He now carries a bag. Everyone enters the castle and Kogoro asks Sawabe to lock the doors so the children can't get in and into danger. The Detective Boys, undeterred, decide to find another entrance to "hunt the treasure".

Natsumi shows everyone around. They visit an armor gallery full of medieval Western European designs and the "lady's lounge" where Natsumi's grandmother preferred to spend her days, as well as the "Tsar's Gallery". Inui sneaks back into the lounge, believing there is a secret door or vault in the room. He searches the lounge and finds a vault hidden behind a large picture, grabs a lockpick from his bag and opens the vault. When he tries to grab the jewellery hidden in the vault, his hand is caught by a metal cuff. A trapdoor in the ceiling opens and swords fall from the ceiling, hanging on chains. Inui yells out in shock and the others find him. Sawabe lets him out using a key on his set of keys and explains that Kiichi created this trap to protect the family treasure from thieves. There are many of these traps all around the castle.

Sawabe leads the group into the old study and they notice photos of Kiichi, his family and Kiichi following his hobbies on the walls. Conan can't find a photo of Kiichi's mother so he asks Natsumi if it was taken down. Natsumi replies she has never seen a photo of her grandmother and has no idea what she looked like. Inui points out a photo of Rasputin which even has his signature, G. Rasputin (RU: Г. Распутин), at the bottom. Ran has no idea who Rasputin was and Kogoro tells her he was called "the most evil man of the century". Inui explains that Rasputin was also known as "the Mad Monk" and is said to have been responsible for the downfall of the Tsar and the ruin of the Romanovs. The Tsar's brother Duke Yusupov killed Rasputin to avenge his brother's family and Rasputin's body was found in a river. One of his eyes was missing.

Murder? (Past)

M3-Yusupov.jpg

Location: Russia
Victim: Grigori Rasputin
Cause of death (?): Gunshot wound (Right eye)
Suspects: Felix Yusupov

Kogoro lights a cigarette and Conan notices the smoke moving unusually so he asks Kogoro to give him the cigarette, holds it up and says there must be an air current coming from the floor. They peel back a carpet and find a keyboard with buttons with the Russian alphabet on the floor. Sergei says he has an idea about the password and types "The Last Wizard of the Century" in Russian Последний волшебник века (Posledniy volshebnik veka), at which point the door opens and they see a staircase leading into the basement.

Natsumi goes downstairs with her visitors and explains that "the last wizard of the century" was her great-grandfather's nickname.

In the meantime the Detective Boys found a different entrance to the castle, but they all fall through a trapdoor into the basement. Instead of waiting for Professor Agasa to come and help, they decide to follow one of the tunnels to find the "treasure". Conan hears them making a sound in a nearby tunnel and, accompanied by Inspector Shiratori, goes to find the source of the noise.

Inui notices a shadowy figure in another tunnel, chases after it and he is shot in his right eye by the unknown killer.

Murder

Location: Yokosuka Castle
Victim: Shoichi Inui
Age: 45 years old
Cause of death: Gunshot wound (right eye)
Suspects: Scorpion
Scorpion used a laser sight

Conan and Shiratori find the Detective Boys and after Conan told them off, they continue their search together with the rest of the group. They eventually end up in front of a massive wall with ornate engravings and paintings. Conan immediately figures the mechanism out and tells Inspector Shiratori to shine his flashlight at a two-headed vulture on one of the paintings which wears a single crown encrusted with jewels. The beam of light activates a photo-switch in the crown and a set of hidden stairs appears which lead further underground.

The investigation party finds itself in a chamber designed like a crypt with a small shrine surrounded by water. In the middle of the chamber there is a massive coffin with a lock made out of copper. Natsumi realises that the key she found among her great-grandfather's possessions could fit into the lock and it does. When she opens it, they find a skeleton in the coffin which holds the second Memories egg on its chest. The corpse is female and Natsumi says it must be her great-grandmother who could not get a funeral in an ordinary cemetery because she was Russian. They carefully retrieve the egg and notice it is empty. Ayumi asks if the egg couldn't be a Matryoshka Doll, maybe it needs to be put into something else or something else needs to be put into the egg. Shiratori reveals that he had the first egg with him all along, having borrowed it from Sonoko's father. They insert the first egg into the larger second egg, but nothing happens. Conan notices another round piece of glass on the bottom and wonders if the many round glass pieces on the inside and outside of both eggs are a lens. He asks everyone to extinguish the candles in the chamber. Shiratori's flashlight is placed into a candle holder shaped like a goblet and they put the eggs on top of the flashlight.

The light triggers a switch and the mechanisms inside both eggs. Multiple beams of light are projected out from the eggs onto the walls, revealing pictures of Nicholas II's family and friends. They now realise that the golden figurines inside the first egg are looking through a photo album and that's why the eggs are called "Memories eggs". They notice Kiichi among the pictures, together with a woman with grey eyes which has to be Natsumi'S great-grandmother. The lights begin to fade and Ai wonders why Rasputin was missing from the pictures when he was such a close friend of the Tsar's. Conan also wonders where Inui went.

Just before it gets dark, Conan sees a laser point tracking Kogoro's body and creeping up to his right eye. There is a shot but Conan saves Kogoro by hitting him with his flashlight.
