As they ate, Conan notices three other people eating in the restaurant: Yuna Shono, Sosuke Mizushina, and Osamu Nakanishi. After those three left, Conan asks [[Sayo Ohashi]] about them, and she and Katsumasa Ogura tell them they were suspects of a robbery-murder which resulted in the death of a woman in the neighborhood. Though those three were released, two policewomen still suspect them, as they stop by this restaurant every day. The two of them turn out to be [[Yumi Miyamoto]] and [[Naeko Miike]], who suddenly walk into the restaurant and ask Sayo whether any of those three acted like they got richer. She tells Yumi they acted normally.

When Ran asks the policewomen what they were doing, they tell the whole group they cornered the culprit of the robbery-murder into this restaurant. A week ago, they were patrolling a neighborhood in their car and noticed a suspicious person in front of a house. They attempted to capture that person but had no luck. However, that day there was a meeting for all of the shop owners, so the streets were empty and all the stores had their lights shut off... except for the ramen restaurant! They went into that restaurant, saw Yuna, Sosuke, and Osamu, and detained those three people. At the same time, they told Detectives Sato and Takagi to go that house where the suspicious person was in front of, only to learn that a woman who owns that house lay dead in front of the entrance. The window of the house was broken, and inside was a mess. Since the woman was a hostess, and she came home to get something she had forgotten, the policewomen speculate that she surprised a robber on the front porch was killed in the process. Logically, the culprit would be the person who came in the restaurant last and looked like he or she was in a hurry. However, the day when the woman was killed, Yuma, Sosuke, and Osamu entered at around the same time, and the policewomen came in after quite some time. That was because Yumi tripped while chasing the suspicious person. Here Ran, Sonoko, Masumi, and Conan learned that [[Katsumasa Ogura]] and Yumi knew each other because she and [[Shukichi Haneda]] used to come to this restaurant when it was back in Haido City. As Yumi ponders loudly about Shukichi, Masumi tells her about her older brother, who, like Shukichi, wears round glasses, likes ramen, has a stubble, wears a jersey, and likes the saying "I'm skillful at memorizing such things. I'm the best in Japan... no, maybe even the best in the world..."

After a bit of conversation between the two, Yumi explains to everyone that she fell because the culprit threw a hose that was 2 m long and had a diameter of approximately 3 cm. She and Naeko believed at first that the hose was the murder weapon, because they saw the culprit swing the hose like a lasso on the front porch of the deceased woman's house. Additionally, there was tape residue on the tip of the hose, which suggests that something was attached to the hose and was used to beat the woman to death. However, there was no blood anywhere on the hose, so the policewomen dismissed that possibility.

    File 928 - The Strange Customers of the Ramen Restaurant

    Ran, Sonoko, Masumi, and Conan were walking home after school, talking about last night's ramen show and the ramen that made it to the finals. The girls decide to have ramen for dinner, and Masumi recommends going to the restaurant which has "ramen that's so good, it's to die for", which is the new Beika location of the restaurant Conan and Kogoro went before where they solved a poisoning murder case Haido City. As they ate, Conan notices three other people eating in the restaurant: Yuna Shono, Sosuke Mizushina, and Osamu Nakanishi. After those three left, Conan asks Sayo Ohashi about them, and she and Katsumasa Ogura tell them they were suspects of a robbery-murder which resulted in the death of a woman in the neighborhood.

  • Zombie Movie Murder Case

    File 931 - Zombie Blade

    One night, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are watching a zombie movie Kogoro rented. The next morning, Kogoro takes them on a drive to the rental villa that was used for that same movie. As Kogoro explores the villa, Heiji and Kazuha unexpectedly arrive as well.

    Heiji and Kazuha tell the trio that there was a couple who also came to this villa on a pilgrimage, and after a while they drove off. They accidentally ram over something that flew in front of them; Kazuha describes that "something" to be a rotten zombie with a broken neck and tattered clothes. Heiji and Kazuha learned about this incident from Goro Otaki.

    Later, the staff that filmed the movie Kogoro, Ran, and Conan watched last night arrive at the same villa to film the trailer for its sequel. Kogoro begins to act strangely, as if he became a zombie, but that was because on the way to the villa, Kogoro stopped and went into the forest. He was starving, and so he unknowingly bit a poisonous mushroom called Omphalotus Japonicus. The five of them had no choice but to borrow a room in the villa for Kogoro to rest in. Ran and Kazuha decide to quietly watch the filming.

    After the filming, the staff wondered where Takashi Harawaki is, so Conan and Heiji went to search for him. In a room, they find his dead body, holding a cell phone that is still recording.

    File 932 - Funeral Procession of the Departed

    Conan and Heiji tell everyone that Takashi died from potassium cyanide poisoning about 30 minutes to an hour ago.
