Kenjin Hanaoka is a popular painter who seems to have everything that a man could want: his own design firm, best selling books, and untold wealth. But when he decides to eat the forbidden fruit and have an affair with one of his pretty, young illustrators his life starts to come apart at the seams. But rather than face the consequences of his mistakes, Hanaoka tries to cover them up in a brutal and bloody manner. Can Conan see through his ingenious plot and expose Hanaoka for what he really is?

The culprit is '''Kenjin Hanaoka'''. Most of the works he created were actually created by his apprentice Izumi Chono who coerced him to have a romantic relationship with her and then blackmailed him to continue supporting her lest she reveal their secret. All the paintings contain a trademark of the victim: a pink lipstick kiss mark. She also occasionally steals a kiss on her colleagues and boss/lover as a prank which would confirm Hanaoka's guilt.

The trick Hanaoka used after bludgeoning her with an ashtray was leaning her body over the balcony of his apartment room. The corpse is tied to a rope that is connected to a pulley system using a shoyu soy sauce container as a weight and the room's doorknob. Hanaoka calls a botanist employee to come over to activate the mechanism and in the midst of the chaos has a one sided conversation, pretending to stop Chono from supposedly committing suicide.

After explaining the trick and with Hanaoka denying he was with the victim, Conan reveals another kiss mark hidden on his foot using a dirty trick to make him remove his sock (he orders for a cup of lemon tea that forensics considered to be part of the setup for the alibi device and then pours it to scald the murderer's foot).

The killer was '''Shugo Matsui'''. Matsui had made the footprints in advance, putting the paint there and making it seem Adachi did. He had used only Gomera's feet, since there was no tail mark on the floor. He then took off the suit at the stairs, ran into a storage room downstairs and threw the costume out the window on fire. The wound on his leg was faked at first, using studio blood. After the murder incident, he stabbed his own leg with a separate knife and hid it in the props box. To hide the sign of sweat, he changed shirts, which also had a spill of juice from Ayumi who spilled it on his shirt earlier.

The news that Matsui was tired of playing Gomera and wanted to move onto other roles was a rumor spread by Kamei. Matsui was unaware of the rumor until he found out himself. Not wanting the final Gomera movie to be made, he killed Kamei.
