Meeting with Vodka

File 383 - The New Weapon!

Conan stops the car.

The car speeds through the barren, snowy streets of Kenbashi as the two thieves discuss where to dispose of Conan and Agasa. The woman asks why Conan didn't report them to [Inspector Yamamura]], to which Conan responds it would've delayed his meeting (with Vodka). Noticing that he's close enough to his destination, Conan uses his Stun-Gun Wristwatch to knock out the driver before pulling the gear shift to halt the car. After deducing the woman's gun is fake, he uses his Anywhere Ball Dispensing Belt to produce a giant ball in the backseat, immobilizing the woman. With the two thieves dispatched, Conan instructs Agasa to call the police while he heads to meet the Black Organization.

Gin stops Vodka before he makes anymore mistakes.

Vodka is seen exiting his car, ordering his men to secure the area. He heads down to coin locker 0032 but sees no one. Annoyed, he pops a cigarette in his mouth but then notices Itakura's check stuck to the coin locker. He opens the locker and sees the software disk, its edges secured with tape. He spits out his cigarette, takes off his glove, and begins to remove the tape while an ecstatic Conan eagerly watches. Suddenly, a gun pressed up against the back of Vodka's head; it's Gin. He's displeased that Vodka bent the schedule in Itakura's favor and even failed to kill him after the exchange. Vodka explains the situation and hands his superior the disk. Gin immediately sees through the tricks, stating that the disk was taped shut to harvest Vodka's fingerprints. He additionally deduces that someone intended to take Vodka's discarded cigarette and identify his blood type. And most of all, Gin uncovers a Transmitter stuck inside the disk.

Haibara finds Conan in the coin locker.

Gin further deduces that it wasn't Itakura who communicated with Vodka, as people with heart disease are weak to sudden temperature changes and wouldn't travel to the Gunma snow mountains. He believes Itakura must've hired someone, but based on the slight warmth of the disk cartridge, the person who placed the disk must still be near. Conan panics as the two agents close in on him, leaving him with no choice but to hide in a coin locker. The two men turn the corner but find no one. Vodka suggests they look elsewhere, but Gin begins to open coin lockers; however, he soon stops after considering that a grown man can't fit in such a place.

As Conan debates what to do next, he slowly loses consciousness due to the lack of oxygen. He wakes up to see his coin locker creak open, but to his surprise, it's Haibara on the other end. She explains she found him using the spare pair of Criminal Tracking Glasses. Wasting no time, Conan speeds out of the station and scans the crowded city-scape, realizing hours have passed. While he explains his actions to Haibara, Akai Shuichi passes the two. He intently examines Haibara while listening to the news of Itakura's death. By the time Haibara turns to look, Akai has already disappeared into the crowd.

Her sister, Akemi, apparently owned dolls, but sealed them away after their parents passed. Conan then asks how her parents died. She says they were scientists and the organization claimed they died in a lab accident. While her mother isn't well known, her father, Atsushi Miyano was infamous as a man kicked out of the science world: labeled a "Mad Scientist." Conan, spooked, demands Haibara tell him what kind of drug they're making. Haibara turns to him with a menacing look, stating, "A drug that'll resurrect the dead." Seeing Conan express a mix of shock and fear, Haibara assures him that the drug she was making was different, "a silly drug which is worthless to the vast majority of those on earth... just like Hina dolls—only having value to little girls in this small country."

Mie further states that the scroll isn't preserved properly, and is losing value by the day. However, Yayoi remains adamant in not selling the scroll.

Ayumi agrees, stating that she wishes to take another picture later.
    Setsuko realizes that she has business to attend, so Ayumi volunteers the boys to go grocery shopping. On their way back, the boys run into Mie who states he came to retrieve his phone which he left in the Kanno's living room. The group opens the door to see the house has been ransacked, with Yayoi nowhere to be found. Ayumi heads to the room with the Hina set and to her relief, the set remains untouched. However, the hanging scroll is missing.
