| + | Kogoro and Chiba took a seat so Chiba will explain everything: Recently, Chiba's been seeing the same woman at the Ikitsuke Café. He accepted the woman's request a few minutes ago. The woman named Mio Ashida said she felt like something dangerous will occur. It happened while ago at Ikitsuke Café, Chiba read the letters saying, "After coming out of jail, I'm expecting a greeting." Chiba asks Ashida that she got this kind of letter all year. She said yes and she's really scared. She changed her job and home. She's being stalked by someone else. It might be just her imagination. Chiba said that he told Mio that if she figures out what he looks like or any information about him, she must tell Chiba immediately. However, when Chiba went to the restroom, Mio left. Chiba went to the café owner and asked where Mio is. The owner said the customer left immediately after calming down. Also said that she looked like she was afraid of something. After that, Chiba found the umbrella which belongs to Mio. She must've took Chiba's umbrella. Chiba uses Mio's umbrella and went out to look for her. When Chiba is about to cross the street, the red car came and Chiba quickly got out of the way. He saw a suspicious person wearing a hat and sunglasses while riding a red car. That felt more like murderous intent than just malice. Then Chiba thought maybe the driver mistook Chiba as a woman. Chiba was careless when he didn't ask Mio for her address. He thought about asking the inspector, but he has no proof. So that's why Chiba came to Mouri Detective Agency for help. Kogoro got down that it's no case. Kogoro tells Chiba that if he doesn't know where she is, there's no way he can find her. Conan just thought up something that meeting her more frequently, means that after she moved, her house got closer to the cafe. Chiba sees that. Then, making the cafe as the center, they can search the perimeter. Kogoro still does not accept Chiba's request, but Ran and Conan stares at him with odd faces. Kogoro then said fine that he will go find Mio Ashida. | ||

Meanwhile at the apartment, the student who failed the entrance exam named Takuya Murakami is getting annoyed by someone else on the second floor.

When Chiba, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan went to the apartment, they found a red car which was the one that almost ran over Chiba. They went inside and went to the second floor of the apartment. Inspector Megure and Detective Takagi are also there. It seems they found the dead body. | ||

| − | + | Chiba found the hat and sunglasses which was the suspicious person wears but more surprisingly, he finally found Mio. Takagi said that she's the perpetrator. Chiba cannot believe it. Suddenly, Inspector Megure asks Kogoro of why is he here. Kogoro informs him the whole story and Megure understands what's going on. The red car they found was actually stolen. Takagi is now going to explain of what happened: the incident occurred forty minutes ago, at 9:30 PM. Murakami that lives below said that he heard sounds and screams, so he came to check. He discovered a dead body and Mio, who was next to the corpse. Murakami then called the police. When he went to the room, it seems the front door wasn't locked. A man named Yoshizumi Karashima was released from prison three days ago. He went to prison for traffic accident. One year ago, there was a drunk driver that broke the guard rail and fell into the lake. Of the two, one died. One person got light injuries. The driver died. The person was sentenced one year of prison for allowing a drunk to drive and now Karashima is found dead in the apartment. Mio thinks it's a lie and she claims that ever since he was in a drunk driving accident from long time ago, her older brother promised he would never drive again. That person that was really driving was Karashima. The driver that died was indeed her older brother, Toshiaki Ashida. It seems he was 28 years old. Mio testifies that Karashima said that her brother was the one driving, but she could not believe his story. She objected his story, but it was rejected. Chiba has no doubt that it must be revenge. He shows the letters written by Karashima when he was in prison to Megure. All of the letters said that he would meet Mio after being released from prison. Mio moved to the apartment where she won't be stalked by Karashima. All the stuff in the her apartment hasn't been used. All she did was go home and sleep. She was so scared. When she came home, the lights were on, and the door was unlocked. She didn't think anybody would be inside. When she opened the door, suddenly Karashima grabs her and he's about to stab her. Mio resisted with her umbrella. They moved to the living room while struggling. Mio pushed him to the wall and the vase hit on his head. Conan sees the injury on the back of Karashima's head. He notice that there's another injury above his nose. Chiba thinks he must've got hurt while struggling. There's blood on the corner of the tv desk. | |

| + | Conan reveals that this was no self-defense, but a well planned murder. The umbrella container has puddle of water in it. Their umbrellas are outside to preserve the crime scene. That means, there's only one umbrella in the apartment. The umbrella she mistakenly took at the café is Detective Chiba's umbrella. The umbrella that was inside the umbrella container is the one. If that's true, the part being attacked right when she entered by Karashima will be a contradiction. Mio didn't have the time to put the umbrella inside the container. There's another contradiction, even though he walked to the apartment from the car, his clothes are not wet at all. He could have used the umbrella but they weren't any other umbrellas. In other words, Karashima got in the apartment before it started raining which is before 7. The shoes are wet but Karashima's socks and pants are not wet at all. There's one more contradiction, the car's driver seat. For a large person to be driving, the seat was too close to the handle. These are all situational proofs, but there is only thing that can bring the case to light. This was no self-defense, but a planned murder by the culprit, '''Mio Ashida'''. This was all set up by Mio from the beginning. Mio first marked the doorknob to make it looked like it was picked. She called Karashima on the phone saying, "the door is unlocked, so wait inside." Next, she showed Detective Chiba the letters that were from Karashima. She portrayed herself as if she was afraid. Then she purposely took Chiba's umbrella and left the café. She used her car to try to hit Chiba. She made Chiba think that she was targeted. During that time, Karashima went to her home before it rained. While waiting for her, he was watching tv. He couldn't use the remote so used the tv. Mio came home around 9:30. Karashima crawled towards the tv on his knees and turns it off. That's when he knocked down with a vase from behind. He fell forward, hitting his nose on the table. That's the first noise Murakami heard. After that, Mio made Karashima hold the knife. The hat and sunglasses Chiba saw was put near Karashima to make it look like that Karashima was the stalker. The scream Murakami heard was all acting from Mio. She chose the apartment because noise can be easily heard through the walls. Murakami also heard other noises during the murder. Chiba said that Karashima threatening her is a fact. The anger from the court and the letter is proof, but about the letter, especially the letter that started up again. "After finishing my sentence, I want to meet you and tell you the truth." That is why he kept on sending those letters. It's probably about the accident from one year ago. He might have wanted to confess what he had done to Mio. Conan wondered why the letters stopped for awhile so he had Takagi check. Takagi confirms that before the letters stopped, Karashima had a serious illness during prison. The doctor said he had six months left to live. After leaving prison, he hasn't visited a hospital that the doctor advised him to visit. Most likely, he was looking for Mio, who changed jobs and moved. Then he really want to confess his sins. Mio thinks it's a lie and she doesn't believe it. She still doesn't forgive him at all. Her brother died, she was dumped, and her father got fired and died in the hospital from being ill. Her mother died soon after. Nobody saved her. Nobody believed her brother was innocent. That's why she chose revenge on Karashima. Then, as a real proof, after finding out what it is, she will figure out what she had done was meaningless. Even though, there doesn't exist a meaningful murder. Conan will show the demonstration. Mio will act as Karashima and Chiba will act as Mio. When the tv is turn on, Chiba will act as if he is going to attack by raising his hands like he's holding something and Mio will crawl towards the tv on her knees and turn off. When she turned off, there is a tv reflection of Chiba behind her. That's when Karashima saw Mio. But he did not run. The only thing Conan think of is that he chose death. He was repenting from deep within his heart. Now Mio is arrested for murder. | ||

| + | Because of this case, there will be a reinvestigation about the case from one year ago. But a life that has been taken and a heavy sin won't disappear. | ||

Kogoro and Chiba took a seat so Chiba will explain everything: Recently, Chiba's been seeing the same woman at the Ikitsuke Café. He accepted the woman's request a few minutes ago. The woman named Mio Ashida said she felt like something dangerous will occur. It happened while ago at Ikitsuke Café, Chiba read the letters saying, "After coming out of jail, I'm expecting a greeting." Chiba asks Ashida that she got this kind of letter all year. She said yes and she's really scared. She changed her job and home. She's being stalked by someone else. It might be just her imagination.

Chiba went to the café owner and asked where Mio is. The owner said the customer left immediately after calming down. Also said that she looked like she was afraid of something. After that, Chiba found the umbrella which belongs to Mio. She must've took Chiba's umbrella. Chiba uses Mio's umbrella and went out to look for her. When Chiba is about to cross the street, the red car came and Chiba quickly got out of the way. He saw a suspicious person wearing a hat and sunglasses while riding a red car.

Then, making the cafe as the center, they can search the perimeter. Kogoro still does not accept Chiba's request, but Ran and Conan stares at him with odd faces. Kogoro then said fine that he will go find Mio Ashida.
So now, Conan, Ran, Kogoro, and Detective Chiba went all around the places to search for Mio. Meanwhile at the apartment, the student who failed the entrance exam named Takuya Murakami is getting annoyed by someone else on the second floor. Suddenly, Murakami heard a big bump sound from the ceiling and a scream from the woman. The woman cried for help.
Detective Chiba receives a call while searching for Mio. The call was that a young woman was involved in a murder case at a nearby apartment. When Chiba, Kogoro, Ran, and Conan went to the apartment, they found a red car which was the one that almost ran over Chiba. They went inside and went to the second floor of the apartment.
