She is in reality a maid named '''Mutsumi Nishikawa''', who killed the grand mistress and took over her identity to search the castle for the treasure. The Grand Mistress had figured out that the maid was searching for the treasure and wanted to fire her, so since their voices were similar, Mutsumi came up with the plan to take her place. But she feared that the daughter couldn't be fooled, so she killed her and the long-time servants by setting the tower on fire.

| + | Heiji and Kazuha arrive in Tokyo in order to attend the wedding of the son of a former classmate of Heiji’s mother; she was originally the one invited, but since she broke her toe bones while cooking, Heiji was asked to attend instead. Kazuha comes along because, according to her, Heiji’s mother wants her to take care of him whilst he is in Tokyo; Heiji disputes this account, and claims instead that Kazuha is in Tokyo mainly for shopping. Since they arrive one day in advance, they decide to take a guided tour of the city that day (the guides, unsurprisingly, are Kogoro, Ran and Conan). After spending some time in Shibuya, Kazuha decides to go shopping; Ran suggests that they head to the stores that she knows of. Kazuha rejects this coldly, saying that she already has the stores that she wants to visit in mind. Ran thus offers to accompany her to the stores of her choice, which Kazuha accepts. The two girls thus head to a shopping mall; at one point, Ran asks Kazuha whether a particular shirt suits her; Kazuha, without lifting her head to look at Ran, answers in affirmative, adding indifferently that Ran’s cuteness will make everything fit her well. She then encourages Ran to buy the sweater, which she does. <br> | ||

Ran, having noticed that Kazuha seems to be holding something against her, asks her what the problem is. Kazuha, after hesitation, reveals that it bothers her that Ran and Heiji wear shirts with the same colors, patterns and styles in their encounters. She conjectures that they have a special relationship, and that before they meet they secretly agree on what to wear (which Kazuha finds gross). Ran, realizing the misunderstanding, takes off her shirt without thinking twice, and puts on the shirt that she just bought. Kazuha is astonished by this, as they are in the middle of a busy commercial district, and Ran only has underwear below. Ran, after changing, tells Kazuha joyfully that now Heiji and she are not wearing the same thing; Kazuha blushes, and exclaims that Ran is a genuinely good person. <br> | ||

There, they coincidentally meet the butler of the family whose son is getting married; his name is Akio Shigematsu. Heiji, who knows Shigematsu from when he was a child, asks what he is doing at the shrine; the latter replies that he is accompanying the fiancée Kaede Katagiri on a tour of Tokyo (as she is from somewhere else). Heiji thus wonders where the fiancé (whose name is Kikuhito Morizono) is, to which Katagiri replies, apologetically, that he is unwell because she insisted on ascending to the panoramic platform of Tokyo Tower, ignorant of his extreme acrophobia. <br> | ||

Ran is ordered to stay where she is to see if anyone suspicious jumps out of the mansion, and Kazuha sets out to look for Shigematsu. He turns out to be missing, and the door leading to the room with the broken window is locked. Since Shigematsu is the only one with the key to that lock, Kogoro and Heiji have no choice but to break in with brute force. There is nothing but a blood trail in the dark room, but by following the blood trail, the detectives are led to the adjoining room; this one is well-lit, and Shigematsu is found sitting on the floor, soundless and unmoving. There is a huge red patch on his left chest, which suggests that he died from a stab wound that penetrated the heart directly. | ||
