Case

Situation

Kogoro takes Ran and Conan to an onsen in a rental car after being given a special deal. Kogoro then receives a call from Inspector Megure who reveals that a bomber called the police station to tell them a bomb was placed on Kogoro's car and will detonate when his speed goes below 20 km/h. Kogoro concludes the man who gave him the deal is the bomber.

The culprit's face revealed, Jirou Matsumiya.

Conan impersonates Megure's voice and calls Kogoro and reveals the bomber to be Jirou Matsumiya. Conan explains that Jirou's older brother was involved in a case Kogoro worked on three years prior. Jirou's older brother, while fleeing from the police, crashed and died causing him to resent the authorities. The police order a semi truck specially designed to hold cars and hoists Kogoro's car into it. The truck keeps the car still while allowing the wheels to turn giving them time to refuel the car and disarm the bomb. The police later arrest Jirou and convince him to forget about revenge.

Trivia

• The cars shown in this episode were a purple Toyota Crown Royal S180 (Kogoro) and a red Subaru Impreza WRX STI GDB-F (the bomber).
