The culprit is '''Hiroyuki Tomonaga'''. As proof, though the bombs were equipped with timers, they were rigged to be controlled by a remote. According to Forensics, this would work only upto a range of 30 meters. So, the culprit had to be close to the bomb to speed up the timer. Furthermore, the culprit had to coordinate the incoming texts with Kogoro's actions. Tomonaga volunteered to go with the Police to achieve this. He suggested Takuji Hirukawa to attack the transport truck carrying the money while making it look like he was out to avenge his brother.

Hiroyuki Tomonaga attempted to flee with the remaining stolen money but was caught by Conan (via Kogoro Mouri). He was caught red-handed when he blurted that Hirukawa must have been dead, which was not broadcasted on the news. Conan did not understand when Tomonaga, who had forgotten about the solutions to the riddles in the picture book, suddenly started talking about the various illustrations in it. This was when he also realized that the culprit wanted Hirukawa's suicide and the illustration in the book to overlap.  Hirukawa was, however, saved thanks to Kogoro's (Conan's) reasoning and plan to send Inspector Takagi and Chiba before the Police to save him, which they successfully accomplished in the nick of time.

Conan started suspecting Tomonaga when he said that the author left the proof for his brother. This was contradictory to the fact that the 'proof' was merely a photocopy, as it does not make sense for a proof to be misaligned. Naturally, Hirukawa would have wanted his brother's original creation but he didn't have it. This only meant that Tomonaga still possessed the proof and had looked it through during the case, but he lied about reading it. All these facts pointed out that Tomonaga was the mastermind.
