Conan reveals the culprit to be Kyosuke Haga who murdered both Genzaburo and Ayane at that day. He murdered Genzaburo by starting the fire using a cigarette, and it was revealed that the door was not locked and Kyosuke pretends that it is locked when he tries to open the door. Kyosuke locked the door stealthily while Conan and the others are focused to the fire inside Genzaburo's room. The evidence was found at the lock plate, as only the top part is bent, meaning when the group tries to broke into the room it wasn't locked.

He murdered Ayane by switching the real and fake Stradivarius. When Ayane breaks the fake violin, she heard the music Kyosuke played downstairs. Kyosuke has reserved a violin that is hanged on the window using Genzaburo's command stick that is sticked to the window causing Ayane to think it is the real Stradivarius. She merely wants to grab it, but she fails and fell from the window resulting in her death. The evidence can be found as near Ayane's body, there are the bridge from the violin, and a part of the command's stick. It was also revealed that Kyosuke saved Ayane out of the fire because he doesn't want Genzaburo and Ayane die together in the fire.

Kyosuke reveals that the Stradivarius was originally from his family. One day, the Kyosuke's father was asked by his brother, Choichiro, to borrow the Stradivarius. He then attempts to to send back a replica to Kyosuke's father, but was found out. In an argument, Kyosuke's father falls down the stairs. Choichiro orders his family to not call the ambulance and to staged it as robbery. He even went as far to murder Chinami to silence her. This is the cause of Kyosuke's father's death. Kyosuke know all the truth from Emi two days ago shortly before her accident. As Kyosuke is taken away, he is a composer who has the perfect pitch so Conan asks him the tune of a song from the cellphone numbers and finds out the Boss of the Black Organization's number is the song "Nanatsu no Ko".
