Well, this murder is obviously not the work of the BO because the MO doesn't match. I have a feeling per my prediction in the last thread we are going to hear about another side of Rum from a witness. The last case was feminine Rum; this one is either strong man or old man Rum.

 

Like Azusa would ever say something arrogant like she was embarrassed to play a guitar around high-schoolers. Vermouth is going OOC there.

I feel like this file could go in two directions:

 

The case I want: Team Amuro and Vermouth versus Team Akai and Conan DOUBLE BATTLE DEDUCTION SHOWDOWN or...

 

The likely option: Conan just making things awkward for everyone because he gets caught up in the case. Okiya really wants to investigate but is forced to lurk on the sidelines because Vermouth. That means Amuro plays as Conan's aide with Vermouth smirking.

 

Seriously, covering Rum's rear has turned out to be a lot of work for the BO thanks to his murdering Kohji. I am surprised he got promoted.

For the average japanese person, buying Conan ensures first and foremost that you'll be getting your mystery of the week/month, therefore there will always be some kind of mystery (a murder, a code, a burglary, a hostage situation etc.) to go along with the story so at this point it's kind of pointless to hope for this to suddenly change.

I've always wondered why all these information are only starting to leak out recently, for a case that happened 17 years ago.

 

Because Gosho wants the mystery to unfold a certain way in order to be interesting; he is using different witness testimonies from the past one after another that the reader must untangle to uncover Rum's true form. Coincidental cases involving the past are the easiest way to approach the subject although it sacrifices some realism to have Conan run into one relevant case after the other.

/Doylist answer

 

Haneda Shuukichi's recent Shougi victories, especially his recent claim of all seven titles which made popular news, have suddenly forced people to recall the late Haneda Kohji. People involved in Kohji's death are thus prompted to act on their memories since it is on the forefront of their minds.

Yeah even I think as Chek pointed out this case might show another side of rum, i.e. old or strong. I doubt there is gonna be another BO case after this soon, as I think we won't get any BO case for a while after movie 20, on a side note really really glad that we get some BO characters in! :D

Btw this has obviously been pointed out, but the shopping mall case was a foreshadowing on RUM's true description right? I think figuring out why people look at RUM in three forms(three completely different forms) is gonna be harder than the mall case but very interesting! :)

So far RUM is as clumsy as Vermouth...

Then why he is special?

Pisco is discarded easily after all...

He/she is special because he/she is the nº 2 in the organization. Very close to the boss.

He made a mistake 17 years ago, which seemed to be unknown until recently. I wouldn't say you can completely judge his ability or level of clumsiness just from that.

Sudden Scotch death panel that probably provides some backstory clues when added to info learned later,

Akai not shown definitely pulling the trigger (but there is blood splashes),

Three red herring definitely-not-rum suspects,

A conversation with Okiya funny enough to make Amuro go dot eyed,

And a multi-disguise pileup.

 

I am definitely digging this chapter. Hope the case is good!

Then at the end of the case we have Mary and Gin saying the same line about a demon (oni) sleeping in the darkness.

I just realized that this was supposed to make Mary look suspicious. Here I was thinking it was kind of cool to have the same saying with different meanings.

I get the feeling that Amuro and Vermouth's plan to deal with the singer wouldn't have him killed for sure unless the song was incriminating. Also, I have a hard time believing they are planning to just waltz in to his dressing room with a pistol planning to attack him right away. Wouldn't it make more sense for Vermouth and Amuro to fall back after getting the info so someone ready can set up an accident? The overt murder of another celebrity related to the Kohji case and Asaka would be highly counterproductive to sweeping the past under the carpet.

Also just a reminder, it is still a mystery who keeps posting info on Kohji's case that someone keeps taking down. Does this mean the BO had a censorship and harmonizing division?

What Kurara meant (and I agree with) is "why would the Boss choose someone so clumsy to be the second in command of such a secretive agency?"

Well what kind of agency goes on a roller coaster to find their dealer XD
