But Shiratori refuses this explanation because according to the law, self-defense relies in ''lack of actual killing plans'' (unlike Kodama's case, since he was carrying a knife when he met up with Sumida for the last time), ''and'' he's used a baseball bat to harm innocent people instead of fulfilling his dreams. Shiratori does this in a manner than triggers Kobayashi's memories of the young Shiratori telling similar things to the shoplifters they stopped, and she finally remembers their chance encounter. When she tells him so, Shiratori says that he's loved Kobayashi even from before the children before them were born, and she shyly but happily accepts his definitive love confession. |

Cast
Case
Situation
Officer Takagi comes back to the police department after an all night stakeout and gets reprimanded by Officer Sato for his poorly appearance. She then starts fixing his necktie, only for him to get flustered when he notices a grupo of other male policemen (save for Shiratori) giving him death glares out of jealousy.
The other policement start gossiping in the hall about how they've kissed and had lunch together, and then Shiratori arrives. As the "Sato Miwako Defense Line" group, they try to rope Shiratori into their antics, but he doesn't take the bait and walks out. One of the policemen says he's found out that Shiratori has a girlfriend, and adds how she looks exactly like Sato - said girlfriend is Sumiko Kobayashi.
Shiratori calls Kobayashi at work and tells her to be careful at night, since there's a purse snatcher in the area. She asks him why he's so concerned and is flustered when he mistakenly thinks she's bothered. The Detective Boys, Ai and Conan are there since they're on cleaning duty, and the younger kids are happy to find out the call's from Shiratori and try to clue her in the supposed encounter she and Shiratori had in the past. While she feels that they've met before, she can't exactly recall when or where.
Later that day, the Detective Boys and Kobayashi go to see a summer festival's fireworks display. Kobayashi gets left behind since she arrived late and the fireworks had already started, but as she's looking for the children she overhears a quarrel. Then, she walks into the alley the voices come from... then sees the figure of the culprit run away in the shadows and finds the victim, a person who has been stabbed to death.
Murder | |||||||||
|
In the middle of the fireworks Conan realises that Kobayashi hasn't arrived. He goes look for her and arrives to the alley, where he hears Kobayashi scream. With her hands covered in blood, Kobayashi looks at her side and sees the culprit again; then Conan arrives and he or she is gone.
The next day, the kids and Kobayashi are in the police station. Upon her arrival Kobayashi is mistaken as Sato by Yumi, and later by Chiba. Shiratori arrives and explains the situation, leaving the two dumbfounded about the physical similarities and the completely different behavior of both women.
The group is questioned as witnesses by the police. Kobayashi tells them all she can remember of the encounter last night, including how she believes the suspect to be a woman due to the figure's long hair and apparent large breasts. Conan and Shiratori fear that said suspect will go after her, and when the Detective Boys offer to stay over, Shiratori says it won't be needed and then tells a flustered Kobayashi that he will protect her even with his life. Ai says he might be getting over his head, and then Kobayashi adds that she saw a truck around. Other details go to the surface: namely, the victim Akira Sumida's manly looks and her incredibly unpleasing behavior, as well as how Kobayashi heard a voice right before the murder.
Three suspects are interrogated, and all three had personal motives to murder Akira Sumida. The first one is the former gang leaderess Kagitani, who hated Sumida for having callously called her late mother's very expensive ring that she pawned as a "worthless item" and claiming she had sold, it when she was actually wearing it. The second is the restaurateur Takimoto, who was angry because she was tricked by Sumida into buying a fake antique plate for half a million yens, which was revealed to be a cat's plate worth only 300 yens. The third and last one is the ex-baseball player and now host club worker Kodama, who says that Sumida repeteadly and menacingly ordered him to return the money that she loaned him. None of them have proper alibis: Kagitani says she was home alone watching a soccer match, Takimoto says she was sleeping off a cold she had, and Kodama says he was drinking at his apartment.
In the middle of the investigation, Kobayashi goes to the rest room with Ai and Ayumi. While waiting for the girls to be done, Kobayashi briefly sees Satou and Takagi walking by and is excited by how similar they are in looks. Before she can do anything, however, she also overhears the male policemen from the beginning saying that Shiratori was part of the "Miwako Sato Ultimate Defense Line" head and that they believe Kobayashi is a replacement for Sato. Kobayashi, who was starting to develop quite a crush on Shiratori, slumps to her knees in disappointment and sadness, much to the worry of the girls when they see her...
Shiratori has Kobayashi listen to the three culprit's voices, and she says that none of them was the voice that shouted out. For worse, Chiba hasn't been able to find the truck supposed to be around. When done with the interrogation, Kobayashi says she cannot do anything else to help and storms out of the police station, coldly refusing Shiratori's offers to escort her. (Chiba does so, under Shiratori's request, so she won't be attacked by the actual culprit.)
Shiratori doesn't understand why is she so angry, so Ai tells him that she and Ayumi saw Kobayashi depressed all of a sudden. She deduces that she surely saw Sato and heard the rumors that Shiratori is only settling for her in place of Sato, which must have hurt her deeply. Shiratori is shocked since he's completely sure that Kobayashi is his "girl of destiny" and not Sato, and the kids try to convince him to speak up. The situation is made even more awkward when Sato and Takagi arrive to the scene... because Sato has just heard about Kobayashi and now she wants to show her support to Shiratori's "bid" to her affections.
The next day, the kids keep company to the still depressed Kobayashi after class and switch from discussing the deals with Shiratori to discussing the backgrounds and probable motivations of the culprits. They conclude that the voice Kobayashi heard may have been altered by a mask, but Conan and Ai aren't certain about it being the voice of the only culprit who wore a mask (Takimoto, who had a huge cold and thus wore one to not spread her illness). Mitsuhiko and Ayumi add that the culprit may have been a woman, thanks to the figure that Kobayashi saw, and Conan wonders if Kobayashi heard the victim talk rather than the culprit. Mitsuhiko adds that there was a truck coming from Osaka around the area, belonging to the Osaka Nikko Nikko company.
Shiratori arrives and tries to have Kobayashi listen to the recorded voices again, but when she asks if he believes her to be a liar, he says he's the one lying since he has come to see her. He attempts to rectify the misunderstanding by revealing to her how they met many years ago in a bookstore when confronting a pair of thieves, but Kobayashi is unable to remember the event annd replies it must have been Sato after all, running away into the school grounds. The children realise some changes in his version, and Shiratori admits that he made slight modifications to reinforce his pre-existing claim; since this backfired, they tell him not to give up, and then decide to help him catch the culprit so he can recover Kobayashi's favor. In the middle of this, however, someone is seen lurking around the school...
Later that night, at the school, Kobayashi receives a phone call from a mysterious person. S/he claim that the truck was found and that s/he is coming to see her since s/he wants to show her photos of it; s/he adds s/he's an ex-pupil of Teitan Elementary and asks Kobayashi to meet up at the music room, since s/he felt "nostalgic" around it. As the only teacher around the grounds, she accepts, then recalls that the person didn't tell her his/her name and that the music room was remodelled few ago so this person can't be "nostalgic" for it... and then a presence behind her shocks her...
