On a rainy night at the Mouri Detective Agency, Detective Chiba arrives and begs Kogoro for help. He wants Kogoro to help him to find a woman that he believes is in danger.
  
Kogoro and Chiba took a seat so Chiba will explain everything: Recently, Chiba's been seeing the same woman at the Ikitsuke Café. He accepted the woman's request a few minutes ago. The woman named Mio Ashida said she felt like something dangerous will occur. It happened while ago at Ikitsuke Café, Chiba read the letters saying, "After coming out of jail, I'm expecting a greeting." Chiba asks Ashida that she got this kind of letter all year. She said yes and she's really scared. She changed her job and home. She's being stalked by someone else. It might be just her imagination. Chiba said that he told Mio that if she figures out what he looks like or any information about him, she must tell Chiba immediately. However, when Chiba went to the restroom, Mio left. Chiba went to the café owner and asked where Mio is. The owner said the customer left immediately after calming down. Also said that she looked like she was afraid of something. After that, Chiba found the umbrella which belongs to Mio. She must've took Chiba's umbrella. Chiba uses Mio's umbrella and went out to look for her. When Chiba is about to cross the street, the red car came and Chiba quickly got out of the way. He saw a suspicious person wearing a hat and sunglasses while riding a red car. That felt more like murderous intent than just malice. Then Chiba thought maybe the driver mistook Chiba as a woman. Chiba was careless when he didn't ask Mio for her address. He thought about asking the inspector, but he has no proof. So that's why Chiba came to Mouri Detective Agency for help. Kogoro got down that it's no case. Kogoro tells Chiba that if he doesn't know where she is, there's no way he can find her. Conan just thought up something that meeting her more frequently, means that after she moved, her house got closer to the cafe. Chiba sees that. Then, making the cafe as the center, they can search the perimeter. Kogoro still does not accept Chiba's request, but Ran and Conan stares at him with odd faces. Kogoro then said fine that he will go find Mio Ashida.

Chiba swiftly explains that recently, he's been seeing a woman at the Ikitsuke Café. The woman named Mio Ashida said she felt like something dangerous will occur. She gave him threatening letters she had received from someone who had recently been released from prison. When questioned, it was revealed that they had been coming for nearly a year and that she had changed jobs and moved because she was afraid of them stalking her. However, recently, she felt she was being watched, thus prompting her to tell Chiba. He had said that if she saw the person, or anyone suspicious, she must tell him immediately. However, when Chiba went to the restroom, Mio left. Concerned, Chiba questioned the owner who said the customer left, and seemed upset or afraid. As Chiba went to follow her, he grabbed an umbrella and realized that he had hers, meaning that in her rush, she had grabbed his.
  
So now, Conan, Ran, Kogoro, and Detective Chiba went all around the places to search for Mio. Meanwhile at the apartment, the student who failed the entrance exam named Takuya Murakami is getting annoyed by someone else on the second floor. Suddenly, Murakami heard a big bump sound from the ceiling and a scream from the woman. The woman cried for help.
+
When Chiba was about to cross the street, a red car came and Chiba quickly got out of the way. He saw a suspicious person wearing a hat and sunglasses in the driver's seat. Chiba felt that it wasn't careless driving, but rather an attempt on his life, and that the driver mistook him for the woman due to having her umbrella. Since Chiba did not get her address before she left, he was not able to find her right away, and due to no evidence, he was unable to do it through the police headquarters, which is why Chiba came to Mouri Detective Agency for help. Since she came to the cafe often, Conan proposed the idea of searching nearby areas, as she likely lived near by.

Detective Chiba receives a call while searching for Mio. The call was that a young woman was involved in a murder case at a nearby apartment. When Chiba, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan went to the apartment, they found a red car which was the one that almost ran over Chiba. They went inside and went to the second floor of the apartment.

Chiba found the hat and sunglasses which was the suspicious person wears but more surprisingly, he finally found Mio. Takagi said that she's the perpetrator. Chiba cannot believe it. Suddenly, Inspector Megure asks Kogoro of why is he here. Kogoro informs him the whole story and Megure understands what's going on. The red car they found was actually stolen. Takagi is now going to explain of what happened: the incident occurred forty minutes ago, at 9:30 PM. Murakami that lives below said that he heard sounds and screams, so he came to check. He discovered a dead body and Mio, who was next to the corpse. Murakami then called the police. When he went to the room, it seems the front door wasn't locked. A man named Yoshizumi Karashima was released from prison three days ago. He went to prison for traffic accident. One year ago, there was a drunk driver that broke the guard rail and fell into the lake. Of the two, one died. One person got light injuries. The driver died. The person was sentenced one year of prison for allowing a drunk to drive and now Karashima is found dead in the apartment. Mio thinks it's a lie and she claims that ever since he was in a drunk driving accident from long time ago, her older brother promised he would never drive again. That person that was really driving was Karashima. The driver that died was indeed her older brother, Toshiaki Ashida. It seems he was 28 years old. Mio testifies that Karashima said that her brother was the one driving, but she could not believe his story. She objected his story, but it was rejected. Chiba has no doubt that it must be revenge. He shows the letters written by Karashima when he was in prison to Megure. All of the letters said that he would meet Mio after being released from prison. Mio moved to the apartment where she won't be stalked by Karashima. All the stuff in the her apartment hasn't been used. All she did was go home and sleep. She was so scared. When she came home, the lights were on, and the door was unlocked. She didn't think anybody would be inside. When she opened the door, suddenly Karashima grabs her and he's about to stab her. Mio resisted with her umbrella. They moved to the living room while struggling. Mio pushed him to the wall and the vase hit on his head. Conan sees the injury on the back of Karashima's head. He notice that there's another injury above his nose. Chiba thinks he must've got hurt while struggling. There's blood on the corner of the TV desk.

Kogoro claims this was self-defense after all. The swapped umbrellas and the car driving all fit in.

Mio thinks it's a lie that her brother was driving due to a past incident her brother had with drunk driving that made him swear to not ever go behind the wheel again. She believes that the person that was really driving was Karashima. The driver that died was indeed her older brother, Toshiaki Ashida. Karashima said that her brother was the one driving, but she could not believe his story. She filed serveral objections to the court, but all of them were rejected. Chiba has no doubt that it must be revenge, so he showed the letters written by Karashima when he was in prison. All of the letters said that he would meet Mio after being released from prison. 
  
Conan found the umbrella container that still has a little puddle of water in it. Karashima's shoes are still wet also. Conan asks Ran when did it start raining. Ran is not sure and since it started raining at night, it's probably around 7. Conan went downstairs of the apartment to visit Murakami for questioning. Inspector Megure is going to take Mio to the police department for more information and Chiba is going to help her.

Mio moved to the apartment where she won't be stalked by Karashima. In fact, the move was so recent that all the stuff in the her apartment hasn't even been used yet.

When she opened the door, Karashima suddenly grabbed her and went about to stab her, with Mio resisting, using her umbrella as a means of defense. They moved to the living room while struggling and Mio pushed him to the wall where the vase hit on his head. Conan sees the injury on the back of Karashima's head, but also noticeed that there's another injury above his nose.

Murakami told Conan that he did told the police that the TV was on in Mio's aparmtent. He started hearing the tv around 6. When he thought it finally turned off at 9:30, he heard a scream. Conan asks him that did he hear anything else instead of the tv. He says that he heard a bump sound and a scream. Conan went outside to check the red car and he figured out the truth behind the case.

The witness informed Conan that he heard the tv around six, and that it turned off at about nine thirty, before being swiftly followed by the thud and screams.

Location: Apartment
Victim: Yoshizumi Karashima
Cause of death: Blunt force trauma
Suspects: Mio Ashida

In the room, a man was on the floor, dead from blunt force trauma to the head. Beside him was the hat and sunglasses Chiba saw on the driver that nearly ran him over, and on the other side of the room, was the woman, Mio. At first relieved to find her alive, Takagi said that she's the perpetrator, much to Chiba's horror. Both groups share their story, with Takagi finally explaining what happened.

The incident occurred forty minutes ago, at 9:30 PM. Murakami that lives below said that he heard the commotion, so he came to check. He discovered the dead body and Mio, who was next to the corpse. Murakami then called the police. The victim was a man named Yoshizumi Karashima and was released from prison three days ago, after being kept there for a year due to a traffic accident. During the incident, there was a drunk driver that broke the guard rail and fell into the lake. Of the two, the driver died, while the other only received light injuries, but were sentenced one year of prison for allowing a drunk to drive. The driver had been Mio's brother, and the deceased, Karashima, was the other one in the car.

Mio thinks it's a lie that her brother was driving due to a past incident her brother had with drunk driving that made him swear to not ever go behind the wheel again. She believes that the person that was really driving was Karashima. The driver that died was indeed her older brother, Toshiaki Ashida. Karashima said that her brother was the one driving, but she could not believe his story. She filed serveral objections to the court, but all of them were rejected. Chiba has no doubt that it must be revenge, so he showed the letters written by Karashima when he was in prison. All of the letters said that he would meet Mio after being released from prison. 

Mio moved to the apartment where she won't be stalked by Karashima. In fact, the move was so recent that all the stuff in the her apartment hasn't even been used yet. She even stated that she only came to sleep due to how scared she was. When she came home, the lights were on, and the door was unlocked. She didn't think anybody would be inside. When she opened the door, Karashima suddenly grabbed her and went about to stab her, with Mio resisting, using her umbrella as a means of defense. They moved to the living room while struggling and Mio pushed him to the wall where the vase hit on his head. Conan sees the injury on the back of Karashima's head, but also noticeed that there's another injury above his nose. Chiba thinks he must've got hurt while struggling as there was blood on the corner of the TV desk.
