Case
Situation
A woman named Michelle Hamlet shows up at Richard's Detective Agency and asks him to find Kent Hamlet, her father. Rearranging Kent's cat's name, they realize it's the name of a racing horse. They find him at a horse track but the next day, Kent is found dead and Michelle missing. Conan remembers that he accidentally placed a tracker on Michelle but the batteries in his glasses run out. Another detective is discovered who is tracking Michelle down for his client Aaron Hamlet. After Conan's glasses are recharged, they head to Michelle's location and find Aaron dead.

Manga to Anime Change
In the manga version of the story Gin and Vodka are the masterminds of the case (rather than Okita), and they end up killing Masami Hirota/Akemi Miyano who informs Conan of the organization's existence. This would lead to Ai Haibara's appearance in the series.
To repair the storyline, Episode 128 The Black Organization: One Billion Yen Robbery Case was written with a similar ending to the manga version.
