<spoiler>Conan and Heiji convene to meet with Brian D. Kadokura at the Hakodate Pentagram so they could explain the truth of where the treasure is located. Taking into account the old pictures of Keizaburo Onoe in a hot air balloon that had a glass bottom, one would need to put the sword vertically on the glass and align the pentagram motif of the [[wikipedia:crossguard|crossguard]] with the actual Pentagram when seen from above. At the height they become perfectly aligned, by looking from the top of the sword, not from the crossguard. Meanwhile, the Detective Boys and professor Agasa test that on Agasa's newly created hot-air balloon, and when they get to right height, Haibara has Mitsuhiko light a laserbeam towards the actual location of the treasure, '''[[wikipedia:Mount Hakodate|Mount Hakodate]]'''. After the treasure has been revealed, Heiji and Conan ask Kadokura to release Ryoe and stop his antics, but Kadokura laughs and says he actually planted a bomb on the [[wikipedia:Tsugaru Kaikyō Ferry|commuter ferry]]. However, Nacho snatches away the detonator from his boss and jumps on the rooftop of the barracks, revealing himself to be Kaitou Kid in disguise. The real Nacho had been bound and gagged. Kid then escapes towards the treasure. Kadokura sends his men to attack Heiji and Conan, but two new contenders arrive, Okita, whom Heiji called for backup, and Onimaru, whom Okita had noticed was participating at the tournament. As he sees his men get taken down, Kadokura escapes with a few more henchmen. Conan asks Ayumi to drop his skateboard from the hot-air balloon, and it lands right down at the Pentagram. Conan picks it up and starts running after Kadokura. Heiji asks Onimaru and Okita to take care of the remaining men while he chased after Kadokura too. Meanwhile, Hijiri is on the move, as he notices the laserbeam and he starts his plane towards the target. During the car chase, Momiji and Iori, who are in the helicopter above, see Conan in trouble and decide to drop flash bombs to take down the remaining cars, and thus, Conan is able to chase after Kadokura alone. Before Hijiri manages to leave with his plane, Heiji manages to catch up to him and he grabs the plane's tail wing. Hijiri, getting angry, puts the plane in autopilot and jumps on the wing and both have a sword duel. When Heiji falls from the plane, Kid arrives on his hang-glider cape and picks up Heiji and helps him get back on the plane's wing. Meanwhile, Conan manages to disable Kadokura's car just before he can get to the mountain top, and the latter furiously gets out of the car and tries to shoot Conan dead, but Ryoe arrives from behind and lands an Iai move on him, knocking him out, as well as his accomplice. Conan smiles, as he had seen as similar move before. Indeed, '''Ryoe Fukushiro''' is Sumito Hisagaki's murderer and the one that tried to kill Kid. Conan notices that his stance is the same as the attacker and that he has a similar injury from when they managed to fend off the attacker: a slash on the hand, which Conan noticed when Ryoe took his medicine a while ago. Ryoe applauds him for his intelligence, and explains that originally the treasure was supposed to be his. Conan understood that, as he noticed that even though Tadayuki Onoe could not walk, he still had pictures of him in nature and mountains, and realized that Ryoe was the one who drove him around. Thus, as a favor, Tadayuki bequeathed him the treasure. He killed Hisagaki because he started to deal with Kadokura and that was a threat to the treasure. Meanwhile, during their fight, '''Hijiri Fukushiro''' explains that his mother died while his father Ryoe never took care of her and noticed her and so he created a bomb to destroy the treasure. Heiji tells him that there is no way he can become a nurse like his mother if he does things like that and lands a final blow to him, knocking him out. He however is not able to pilot the plane, but decides to detonate the bomb now while he jumps with a parachute with the unconscious Hijiri, saving the people on the mountain. After Ryoe finished explaining himself, Kadokura gets up and tries to shoot them one last time, but is shot in the arm by a smiling detective Kawazoe. After that, Ryoe, Conan and Kid, who just landed, get to the treasure, but when Ryoe sees there is only a small box, he gets angry and smashes it. Conan explains that the real treasure was never gold bars, and that Keizaburo invested all his money in this primitive code-making machine, which was the real treasure for its time. Ryoe falls to the ground, realizing he had been pursuing futile endeavors. Ran and Kazuha, on the observation deck, see Heiji landing with Hijiri and Ran applauds him, thinking that he could not have found a better way to confess. When they land, Hijiri starts to regain consciousness, but Ran knocks him out and brings him away, giving the two childhood friends the best occasion to confess. Heiji takes Kazuha to the top of the observation deck and prepares to confess, but Momiji and Iori, who are watching them from above, accidentally drop a flash bomb, which lands on Heiji and Kazuha. After the bomb explodes, both get up, and Heiji confesses to Kazuha...

After the treasure has been revealed, Heiji and Conan ask Kadokura to release Ryoe and stop his antics, but Kadokura laughs and says he actually planted a bomb all over the city and holds it hostage. However, Nacho snatches away the detonator from his boss and jumps on the rooftop of the barracks, revealing himself to be Kaitou Kid in disguise. The real Nacho had been bound and gagged. Kid helps Heiji and Conan fight off Kadokura.

Ryoe applauds him for his intelligence. Conan noticed that even though Tadayuki Onoe could not walk, he still had pictures of him in nature and mountains, and realized that Ryoe was the one who drove him around. Tadayuki then tasked him to find and destroy the treasure before he passed away. He killed Hisagaki because he started to deal with Kadokura and that was a threat to the treasure, and he framed his own son to distract Kadokura.

Meanwhile, during their fight, '''Hijiri Fukushiro''' explains that his mother died while in a humanitarian mission from a bomb while trying to save children, and thus, thinking that the treasure is dangerous and could potentially harm people, he and his father sought to destroy it. Heiji tells him that there is should not forget what he really wants to do, to study medicine like his mother, instead of blindly following his father's wishes.

During the fight, Heiji falls from the plane, but Kid arrives on his hang-glider cape and picks up Heiji and helps him get back on the plane's wing. After that, Heiji lands a final blow to Hijiri, knocking him out. He, however, is not able to pilot the plane, but manages to drop the bomb to the sea, and later jumps with a parachute carrying unconscious Hijiri before the plane crashed, saving the people on the mountain.

After Conan and Ryoe confirmed that Heiji and Hijiri is safe, Kadokura gets up and tries to shoot them one last time, but is shot in the arm by a smiling detective Kawazoe. After that, Ryoe, Conan, and Kid, who just landed, get to the treasure, but when Ryoe sees there is only a small box, he gets angry and smashes it. Conan explains that the real treasure was never gold bars, and that Keizaburo invested all his money in this [[wikipedia:Cryptography|cipher]] machine, which was the real treasure for its time.

Kadokura and Ryoe are taken away by the Hokkaido Police. When Nishimura is arresting Kadokura, Kawazoe arrives at the crime scene much later, where he explains that he won a lottery and was on holiday for the last 3 days, making Nishimura wonder who the Kawazoe he worked with earlier was.

Case

Situation

A notice from Kaito Kid arrived at the repository of the Onoe Zaibatsu in Hakodate, Hokkaido. This time, Kid is aiming for a Japanese sword which is said to be related to Toshizo Hijikata, the vice commander of Shinsengumi, who lived in the end of Edo period. Why does Kid, who has pursued Big Jewel, go after the sword? Meanwhile, Heiji Hattori, the great detective from the west, and Conan, also visited the site for a Kendo tournament to be held in Hakodate. On the day of the crime announcement, Heiji discovers Kid’s disguise and hunts him down…!?

Murder

M27 Case 1.jpg

Location: Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse near Hakodate Port
Victim: Sumito Hisagaki
Age: 43 years old
Cause of death: Blood loss from slash wound
Suspects: Yoshihisa Kawazoe, Hijiri Fukushiro, Ryoe Fukushiro, Takuzo Onoe and Brian D. Kadokura

At the same time, the body with a cross cut on the chest was found in Hakodate warehouse district. A Japanese-American man known as the “Merchant of Death” who works as an arms dealer throughout Asia has emerged from the investigation. He was looking for treasures believed to have been hidden somewhere in Hakodate by the first head of the Onoe family, who was heavily involved in the war industry during the World War II. Rumor has it that it is such a powerful weapon that it could change the war situation that Japan was losing at the time, and the treasure and the sword Kid is aiming at seem to have something kind of connection. The shadow of a mysterious swordsman looms over Kid who is aiming at the sword.[1]
