Heiji invites Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to visit him in [[Wikipedia: Osaka|Osaka]], taking them on a sightseeing tour. In a restaurant, they run into Kazuha Toyama, Heiji's childhood friend, who appears to be jealous of Ran, asking her if she's "that Kudo girl" that Heiji keeps talking about and telling Ran to back off, because Heiji and her have been "joined by steel" for ages. Ran laughs and explains herself and the two girls hit it off. After finishing their meal, Kazuha joins them on their exploration of the city, but, as they leave the restaurant, a dead body falls from the roof of the building, hitting Kogoro's rental car.

Yusuke's father Tetsuji was a driving instructor who died in an accident 20 years ago. Six of his students had played a prank on him by plying him with alcohol, and he suffered a fatal car crash. The students involved in the fatal prank were the four murder victims, MP Sotaro Goshi, and the escaped convict Numabuchi. They had done so because he was always strict with them and they hated that, all they wanted to do was scare him a little not kill him.
−
The killer was '''Yusuke Sakata''', one of the detectives. His real name is Yusuke Inaba, and 20 years ago his father (a very strict driving instructor) was killed when a tasteless prank involving alcohol and his car went too far... and it was performed by the four victims plus the serial killer Numabuchi and Assemblyman Goshi.  
 
  
−
Sakata always had doubts about Inaba's death, as he was a very careful and responsible man. When investigating the case with Numabuchi, however, Numabuchi started screaming and begging for "Instructor Inaba"'s forgiveness, due to their noticeable physical resemblance. Ever since then, he kept Numabuchi hidden in the forest, but was planning to kill him and frame him for the murders he'd commit as revenge for his father's death.
+
Sakata says he had always wondered about his father's death, he was usually a very careful driver. When he stumbled upon Numabuchi after he had escaped from prison, the latter got frightened and asked "Instructor Inaba" immediately for forgiveness, confusing Yusuke with his father. Yusuke heard the true story behind his father's death and forced Numabuchi to stay in the hut in the forest, planning to take revenge on the other five students before eventually framing Numabuchi for the murders, and making his death look like a suicide.

== Trivia ==
+
Both Heiji and Sakata manage to escape blaze and are taken to the hospital, however before being taken to the hospital Sakata talks to Ginshiro Toyama about everything that’s happened. When suddenly Sotaro Goshi tries to attack Sakata after learning he had killed his friends and was after him as well, but is stopped by Ginshiro who states that they need to have a conversation about his past, leaving Goshi hanging his head in shame.
−
When Heiji explains at the end why he put himself in danger to prevent the culprit from committing suicide, he cites Shinichi's principle, enunciated in [[Distinguished Family's Consecutive Accidental Death Case]] - that a detective should never force the culprit into suicide in the process of deducing their identity.
 
  
−
== Rerun ==
+
=== Aftermath ===
 +
Heiji after being rescued from the burning shack and is rushed to hospital, accompanied by a panicked Kazuha, Ran and Conan. He wakes up in the ambulance, and says he couldn't just let Sakata die as "some idiot told me once that a detective who doesn't do anything when a culprit, confronted with his deductions, commits suicide, is just as guilty of murder", and Conan is stunned that Heiji remembers him saying that. Heiji closes his eyes again, exhausted, and Kazuha starts to cry, believing he is about to die. Her sobs wake an angry Heiji up, he yells that he was just trying to sleep and she should stop being "so noisy". Smirking, Kazuha "accidentally" leans over Heiji and digs her elbow into his bullet wound. They bicker all the way to the hospital.</spoiler>

* In the manga, Heiji remarks that the trick that was used to make the corpse of the third victim fall to the ground is the same as [[Volume 13#Illustrator Murder Case|the one]] used in a case that Kogoro (or rather, Conan) solved before. This part was removed in the anime.

Case

Situation

Heiji invites Conan, Ran, and Kogoro to visit him in Osaka, taking them on a sightseeing tour. In a restaurant, they run into Kazuha Toyama, Heiji's childhood friend, who appears to be jealous of Ran, asking her if she's "that Kudo girl" that Heiji keeps talking about and telling Ran to back off, because Heiji and her have been "joined by steel" for ages. Ran laughs and explains herself and the two girls hit it off. After finishing their meal, Kazuha joins them on their exploration of the city, but, as they leave the restaurant, a dead body falls from the roof of the building, hitting Kogoro's rental car.

The police arrive and quickly realise that this newest victim, a man in his forties, has been killed in the same fashion as two other people who died a few days earlier, by being stabbed in the heart through their wallets.
