The mystery continues and they develop the film on the camera to find droplets of blood on it. Apparently, the murder takes place before the snowstorm but Conan feels like there's a trick to it. The characters are given more back story.

 +
==== The Resolution ====
 +
While examining the chocolates, Conan figures out who the murderer is. Kogoro pops in finding Conan snooping around and is put to sleep. Conan tells everyone in the house Kogoro is ready to place his deduction.

== Plot ==
+
Kogoro reveals who the murderer is and it is revealed to be '''Ako Amari'''. She was angered at her boyfriend who is was supposedly recording long footage of an avalanche that killed an innocent man, thereby acting as a bystander to a man in need of help, and possibly causing the avalanche. It was revealed however, that he was recording evidence of the two lodge hunters who caused that accident and intended as a good samaritan to report it to the police. The two hunters congratulate Amari, revealing that they planned to murder that person the whole time to avoid blackmail from the crime they committed.

=== The Reasoning ===
+
Just then, a man in a ski mask, goggles, and a scarf comes in when one of the hunters opens the door. He knocks one of the hunters out and after his goggles are shot off reveals Makoto. Ran along with Makoto knocks the other hunter out with double kicks. Makoto demands Sonoko to tell her who is the other boy she is dating as he has not received her hand-made knitted sweater (she gave up due to its difficulty), her hand-made pottery glass (he mistook it to be a vase), and the chocolate (she refused to tell who it is for). He gets ready to fight until Sonoko tells him the chocolate was for him. Later on Ran cries because of Shinichi while Conan watches in the shadows. Ran wakes up to find her jacket blanketing her. She received a picture of herself sleeping from Detective Kid who is Conan with Shinichi's voice. Conan pretended to be Shinichi paying a visit and ate her chocolate due to hunger while she was asleep. Ran becomes angry due to Shinichi not waking her up to meet him.</spoiler>

{{main|List of differences between the manga and anime}}
 +
The following was added to the anime version:
 +
* Mika's recollection of Saburo digging Chiyoko's husband out is accompanied by a still image of the event.
 +
* After Yuzo and Hajime recommends that everyone returns to the lodge or stay outside freezing, Conan is contemplating the details found at the crime scene due to episode 266 ending at that point.
 +
* A flashback is shown when Mika mentioned Yoshitaka cutting himself while chopping chocolate.
 +
* Conan's realization of who the murderer at the end of episode 267 is accompanied with a picture of the [["The Criminal"|criminal]].
  
−
== Resolution ==
+
== Continuity ==
 +
* This case brought up that Sonoko failed knitting a sweater for Makoto Kyogoku, which she gave up on in [[The Murderous Pottery Class]].
 +
 
 +
== Trivia ==
 +
* The case of "[[Wikipedia: Saint Valentine's Day Massacre|Bloody Valentine's]]" was the day when Al Capone's men shot down seven members of Bugs Moran's gang with machine guns as they stood in front of a garage on February 14th, 1929.
 +
* The suspects' names are related to chocolates and chocolate-making:
 +
:* Chiyoko Yuasa (湯浅 千代子) is related to chocolate (the katakana for Chiyoko is チヨコ and the katakana for the "choco" in chocolate is チョコ) and the heating and foaming of the chocolate (Yuasa 湯浅 is similar to Yusen 湯煎, which means boiling with water);
 +
:* Yoshitaka Nigaki (二垣 佳貴) is related to bitter (bitter, or niga 苦 in Japanese is phonetically similar to the niga in Nigaki), like the bitter cocoa before it becomes chocolate, and chocolate cakes (the characters for Yoshitaka 佳貴 can also be read "keiki", like the Japanese word for cake, which is kēki);
 +
:* Mika Konakawa (粉川 実果) is related to icing sugar (粉砂糖) and fruits (果実);
 +
:* Ako Amari (甘利 亜子) is related to sweetness (甘);
 +
:* Yuzo Sakami (酒見 祐三) is related to liquor-filled chocolates (酒 stands for alcohol);
 +
:* Hajime Itakura (板倉 創) is related to chocolate bars (板チョコ means chocolate bar in Japanese);
 +
:* Also, the characters of Reiko Yuasa, Chiyoko's husband's previous wife, whose first name completes the word chocolate (the katakana for Reiko is レイコ and the katakana for the rēto in chocorēto is レート) and Natsuya Amari, whose first name refers to nuts (ナッツ or Nattsu is Japanese for nuts) also fit in the theme of chocolate.

Murder

EP266-268 Case 1.jpg

Location: Snow forest near Suito House
Victim: Yoshitaka Nigaki
Age: 28 years old
Cause of death: Blunt force trauma
Suspects: Chiyoko Yuasa, Mika Konakawa, Ako Amari, Yuzo Sakami, and Hajime Itakura

The Deduction

The mystery continues and they develop the film on the camera to find droplets of blood on it. Apparently, the murder takes place before the snowstorm but Conan feels like there's a trick to it. The characters are given more back story.

The Resolution

While examining the chocolates, Conan figures out who the murderer is. Kogoro pops in finding Conan snooping around and is put to sleep. Conan tells everyone in the house Kogoro is ready to place his deduction.

    Continuity

    Trivia

    • The case of "Bloody Valentine's" was the day when Al Capone's men shot down seven members of Bugs Moran's gang with machine guns as they stood in front of a garage on February 14th, 1929.
    • The suspects' names are related to chocolates and chocolate-making:
    • Chiyoko Yuasa (湯浅 千代子) is related to chocolate (the katakana for Chiyoko is チヨコ and the katakana for the "choco" in chocolate is チョコ) and the heating and foaming of the chocolate (Yuasa 湯浅 is similar to Yusen 湯煎, which means boiling with water);
    • Yoshitaka Nigaki (二垣 佳貴) is related to bitter (bitter, or niga 苦 in Japanese is phonetically similar to the niga in Nigaki), like the bitter cocoa before it becomes chocolate, and chocolate cakes (the characters for Yoshitaka 佳貴 can also be read "keiki", like the Japanese word for cake, which is kēki);
    • Mika Konakawa (粉川 実果) is related to icing sugar (粉砂糖) and fruits (果実);
    • Ako Amari (甘利 亜子) is related to sweetness (甘);
    • Yuzo Sakami (酒見 祐三) is related to liquor-filled chocolates (酒 stands for alcohol);
    • Hajime Itakura (板倉 創) is related to chocolate bars (板チョコ means chocolate bar in Japanese);
    • Also, the characters of Reiko Yuasa, Chiyoko's husband's previous wife, whose first name completes the word chocolate (the katakana for Reiko is レイコ and the katakana for the rēto in chocorēto is レート) and Natsuya Amari, whose first name refers to nuts (ナッツ or Nattsu is Japanese for nuts) also fit in the theme of chocolate.
