After investigating, Conan and Heiji reveal that Shakuren arranged the temple's blood-stained tatami mats so that the stains are hidden by tatami-squares in the bottom of the glass statue-cases positioned at the four corners of the room. Shakuren reveals that the body was Denkyu's mother, who abandoned him eighteen years ago. He reveals that she committed suicide after Shakuren refused to give her back her son, when she could not even recognize which one of the monks at the temple he was.

After a thorough investigation, the culprit is revealed to be the detective of the South, Natsuki Koshimizu. Koshimizu confesses she was searching for the detective whose inadequate investigation led the police to suspect her friend as a murderer, prompting her friend's suicide. That detective turned out to be Tokitsu, whom she murdered in revenge.

The trick which completed a secret room excluded all the screws of the sash, and every frame took off a window and I cut the screw which I outran into short pieces in pliers and put it in a sash and painted a sash with adhesive and appeared with a window outside a mansion and fitted a window again.
