Conan reveals that Tequila and Hideaki Nakajima, one of the game designers, secretly exchanged suitcases. Conan reveals that the bomber is game designer '''Hironobu Takeshita''' and that Nakajima was his intended target. As evidence, Conan reveals that Nakajima's suitcase's key would fit into the suitcase Takeshita is holding since that is originally Nakajima's suitcase. The mix-up happened due to the fact that Takeshita had switched the numbers before Nakajima made the exchange with the victim. As a result the suitcase with the bomb was given to Tequila instead. Takeshita confesses and denounces Nakajima for leading '''Yoshimi''' (their university boxing club manager who had dated Takeshita and Nakajima afterwards) to suicide when he dumped her. | Conan reveals that Tequila and Hideaki Nakajima, one of the game designers, secretly exchanged suitcases.

Further evidence is the number of the hotel keys; Kogoro's is 96 while Ran's is 100. Hironobu feared his plan would fall apart if the number he and his victim had were too different; he convinced his co-workers to cut in front of Ran to ensure all three had a number in the 90s. Another piece of evidence is the fact that Conan as Kogoro instructed Megure to check Nakajima’s suitcase, thinking that he had the case with the bomb Hironobu braced himself. But in the suitcase was only money Nakajima had recieved from tequilla, which proves his guilt as he believed that the bomb he planted in his suitcase was going to explode. | Further evidence is the number of the hotel keys; Kogoro's is 96 while Ran's is 100.

Kogoro is invited to a party for the release of a game which stars himself. While there, Conan runs into a man who uses the alias Tequila and learns that he plans to meet with Gin and Vodka. Conan follows Tequila to the bathroom where an explosion occurs and kills the man. Conan investigates the explosion and realizes that it was a murder attempt but the wrong person was killed.

Continuity error
By the time that this story was told in the manga, Conan had a second encounter with Gin and Vodka (learning their names in the process), as well as learning about the organization. In the anime, however, The Shinkansen's Bomb Case and The Strange Person Hunt Murder Case omitted ties to The Organization and its members. Thus Conan at this point in the anime shouldn't know the names of the men who shrank him, or their organization. The anime fixes this problem in Diplomat Murder Case, in a dub, but not the original version, where Heiji Hattori hints at the names of both Gin and Vodka. This makes it plausible for Conan to recall their names in this episode.
Translation changes
Anime
- The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:
- Hideaki Nakajima - Henry Nelbit
- Koji Ueda - Kelvin Tug
- Hironobu Takeshita - Charles Shore
- Ishikawa - George Fuman
- Daikoku Building - Apollo Building
Error
Conan upon hearing Kogoro mentioning having some Gin and Vodka, recalls that Heiji Hattori telling him that the two men in black who he met went by the name of Gin and Vodka. In the Japanese Version, he merely recalls that those were the two men responsible for his condition, however he should still not know their names, since he never learned their names at all.
This particular error originated in the Dub for Diplomat Murder Case. Presumably, this was done as a means of explaining how Conan knows the codename of the two men due to their omission in several episodes, but Heiji wouldn't discover Conan's secret until Holmes Freak Murder Case.
Manga
- Due to Viz Media originally referring to Gin and Vodka as Kaspar and Melkior (volume 4), their translation of this story in volume 12 has Conan's recollection of the two brought on by Kogoro mentioning that he had Kaspar Gin and Melkior Vodka. Following this, volume 18 is the final time that Viz continued with altered names.
Trivia
- In the English dub, the explosion in the Apollo Building killed 23 people, some of whom could not be identified by authorities.
- Mantendo is a reference to Nintendo Co., Ltd., a Japanese video game company.
- Although Conan may know their names in the manga, he should not know the names of Gin and Vodka in the anime yet, esp in the original version, where no one told him yet.
- When Kogoro mentioned drinking "Gin, Vodka, Bourbon", it made Conan think of Gin and Vodka, who shrank him, although he should not know their names yet in the anime.
