Case

Situation

Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are invited to a private party by a president of a financial business, Shohei Kusaka, who is known for his expensive collection and various tastes in wine. Three other guests have attended: Takeo Nonaka, Jyokichi Tonomura, and Yukari Takano. All of whom have borrowed money from the president. Kusaka challenges Tonomura to a tasting challenge: if Tonomura guesses all of the wines correctly, Kusaka will forget his debt. As Tonomura guesses two of the wines correctly, the president gets frustrated and goes to his wine cellar for a rare wine. After taking a break, they all realize that the president has taken too long to return. Toshiko and Kogoro go to check on him, Conan following behind, and they discover his body in the wine cellar.

Murder
	Location: Kusaka household Victim: Shohei Kusaka Age: 52 years old Cause of death: Strangulation Suspects: Takeo Nonaka, Jyokichi Tonomura, and Yukari Takano Toshiko looks into the wine cellar door and panics. Her husband is dead in the locked wine cellar.

Conan takes notice of the victim's odd position on the floor. During the investigation, it is discovered that Shohei and his wife, Toshiko, are the only ones with the keys to the wine cellar, which was locked. In addition, the window could only be opened from the inside, and has a security alarm so it can't be forced open.

Based on what was found so far, the culprit should still be in the house. Fingerprints have been found on the door by two of the suspects, Tonomura and Takano. Nonaka went outside and never touched the door, and Toshiko was in the kitchen and couldn't leave without passing by Kogoro's group. Conan puts the pieces together, and uses Kogoro with the aid of Takagi and Chiba to reenact how the criminal killed the president.

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit turned out to be Takeo Nonaka. He committed the crime by first knocking on the window in the wine cellar, getting Kusaka to deactivate the alarm system and open the window. Nonaka lured Kusaka outside, and then killed him. Nonaka then used Kusaka's key to lock the back door, and replaced it in the victim's pocket. Outside the window, he lay the body on two metal poles, used for the clothesline, and secured the poles to him by putting them through his belt. He then pushed the poles through the window, tilted them, and the body slid into the position it was found. Then, he pulled the poles out, leaving the body in the cellar. Lastly, he put a string around the hook on the window, and pulled it, closing it. The proof is his wine-soaked handkerchief that he used to wipe the poles clean of wine after it spilled on them from the body's impact with the shelf. Nonaka confesses that he killed the president because he imposed a high interest on his debt, and he couldn't pay it in the time that was demanded.

Trivia

• This wine case is cited in Red Wine Indictment, since Shinya Hirose, the national wine association president, was an old acquaintance of Kusaka.
