Case

Situation

Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are invited to a private party by a president of a financial business, who is known for his expensive collection and various tastes in wine. Three other guests attend and all of which have borrowed money from the president. He challenges one of the guests, a training similar to a tasting challenge that if he guesses all of the wines correctly he will forget his debt. As the sommelier guesses two of the wines correctly the president gets frustrated and goes to his wine cellar for a rare wine. They all realize that the president has taken too long and discover his dead body in the wine cellar which has been found locked.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit turned out to be Takeo Nonaka. He committed the crime by first knocking on the windows in the wine cellar. Kusaku then deactivated the alarm system and opened the window. Nonaka then got Kusaku to come outside, and then killed him. Nonaka then used Kusaku's key to lock the door, and replaced it in his pocket. Back outside the window, he put the body on two metal poles, and secured the poles to him by putting them through his belt. He then put the poles through the window, tilted them, and the body was placed in the position it was found. Lastly he put a string around the hook on the window, and pulled, which closed it. The proof is his wine-soaked handkerchief that he used to wipe the poles clean of wine. Nonaka confesses that he killed the president because they rose the interest on their debt and they couldn't pay.

Trivia

• This case is cited in Red Wine Indictment.
• Jyokichi Tonomura is very similar to Minoru Nishina, a 37-year-old essayist in The Fourteenth Target.
