Sato and Takagi stalk out the apartment and are later accompanied by Conan, Ran and Sonoko. A home delivery courier, a bike delivery woman, and a pizza deliverer were seen to leave that apartment and were then interrogated. The three reveal they did not meet their client and instead followed notes specified for them; The courier was instructed to leave the package outside the door, the woman was told to pick up the package, and the pizza man was told to leave the pizza on the table and take the money from an envelope. They then realize that while interrogating the three, no one was watching the apartment. They enter the apartment to find a masked man unconscious. Conan removes the mask and notices that the man was knocked unconscious by a hammer and deduces hammer man has impersonated one of three deliverers from before.

<spoiler>Conan deduces that the Hammer man is trying to hide his gender due to the lack of undergarment or non gender-neutral clothes in the apartment. After examining the shoes, Conan finds out only one pair of shoes with a leather shift-pad. Conan tranquilizes Sonoko and uses her to reveal the bike '''delivery woman''' to be the Hammer man. The officers almost excluded her due to having mistaken the culprit to be a male because of the Hammer Man-name. None of the victims has ever identified their attacker's sex. The press had 'dubbed' her 'Hammer Man' and the name gave the impression that the culprit was male. And even the neighbors has told the police that the resident was a male, he did have a girlfriend, who used to live with him. Sato concludes that the man ''left'' and the woman ''stayed''. As evidence, Conan reveals that the leather shift-pad shoes were designed for biking and since there was only one pair, it means that the biker is not living in the apartment. The pizza deliver has not return to work, likely because the woman had knock him out to mislead the police. Conan reveals that since the culprit left the shoes behind, she does not intend to escape the city by bike meaning she intends to change out of the bike delivery jumpsuit in a public toilet, so she can escape unnoticed. The police manages to arrest her and she was revealed to be targeting girls with long hair because her boyfriend broke up with her for a girl with long-hair. Later, Kiyonaga Matsumoto is awaken by a nightmare from a past case.</spoiler>

== Trivia ==
 +
[[image:pizza-ya.png|thumb|right|200px|Pizza-Ya logo]][[image:Pizza-la.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Pizza-La logo]][[image:Pizza truck.png|thumb|right|200px|Pizza-La truck]]
 +
* This is the first episode to be aired on Saturday 6 p.m. JST.
 +
* Conan's statement, that 'The Hammer man' never existed, is similar to a statement made by his hero [[Sherlock Holmes]] in 'The adventure of the noble bachelor'. Holmes who are searching for a missing woman, who had just married Lord St. Simon, tells Lestrade that Lady St. Simon is 'a myth', because he had figured out that the woman was already married to a man she left to meet, and therefor the marriage with Lord St. Simon wasn't legit. Conan says that there never existed a 'Hammer Man', because he had realized that the Hammer 'man' was in reality a woman.
 +
* The pizza company in the episode named "Pizza-Ya" is in fact inspired by Japan's highest grossing pizza-chain named "[[Wikipedia: Pizza-La|Pizza-La]] but its logo is slightly different from the Pizza-Ya logo. Pizza-La's name is inspired by a pun with Pizza and Godzilla, the eponymous dinosaur that invades Tokyo. It is headquartered in Aoyama, Tokyo. The delivery truck is the same for Pizza-Ya and Pizza-La.
 +
* This is the fifth hidden case in Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story (series). The fourth hidden case was  [[A Jewel Thief Caught Red-Handed]].

Along with present victim, the "Hammer Man" attempted three murders in the past, making the total number of victims to four.

Sato and Takagi stalk out the apartment and are later accompanied by Conan, Ran and Sonoko. They explained that the owner of the apartment were out of the country, but his parents revealed that a male friend of his is borrowing the place, but the parents don't know that friend's name. The neighbors has told the police that the man lived there for a while with his girlfriend. But it seemed that she has left him, and the man stays indoor all day and only comes out at night. A home delivery courier, a bike delivery woman, and a pizza deliverer were seen to leave that apartment and were then interrogated. The three reveal they did not meet their client and instead followed notes specified for them. The courier was instructed to leave the package outside the door, the woman was told to pick up the package, and the pizza man was told to leave the pizza on the table and take the money from an envelope. They then realize that while interrogating the three, no one was watching the apartment. They enter the apartment to find a masked man unconscious. Conan removes the mask and notices that the man was knocked unconscious by a hammer and deduces hammer man has impersonated one of three deliverers from before.

    Trivia

    Pizza-Ya logo
    Pizza-La logo
    Pizza-La truck
    • This is the first episode to be aired on Saturday 6 p.m. JST.
    • Conan's statement, that 'The Hammer man' never existed, is similar to a statement made by his hero Sherlock Holmes in 'The adventure of the noble bachelor'. Holmes who are searching for a missing woman, who had just married Lord St. Simon, tells Lestrade that Lady St. Simon is 'a myth', because he had figured out that the woman was already married to a man she left to meet, and therefor the marriage with Lord St. Simon wasn't legit. Conan says that there never existed a 'Hammer Man', because he had realized that the Hammer 'man' was in reality a woman.
    • The pizza company in the episode named "Pizza-Ya" is in fact inspired by Japan's highest grossing pizza-chain named "Pizza-La but its logo is slightly different from the Pizza-Ya logo. Pizza-La's name is inspired by a pun with Pizza and Godzilla, the eponymous dinosaur that invades Tokyo. It is headquartered in Aoyama, Tokyo. The delivery truck is the same for Pizza-Ya and Pizza-La.
    • This is the fifth hidden case in Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story (series). The fourth hidden case was A Jewel Thief Caught Red-Handed.
