The Resolution
People
Resolution
Conan and Heiji cooperate to reveal the murderer's identity and his trick. Robert Taylor is the murderer. While Kinuyo Takeda's suicide was genuine and started the rumor of the Takeda Tsuchigumo Yokai, Misa Takeda's was caused due to a misunderstanding in a temporary farewell message left by Taylor. One day Taylor was the victim of a rockslide accident and nearly died if Misa did not save him. The injuries were severe that he could temporary not talk and as he could only write romanji, the two were initially unable to communicate with each other. Misa was already facing depression of her family accusing her of being the Tsuchigumo personified and her mother's suicide. A romantic relationship blossomed between her and Taylor. When Taylor left he wrote in English "SHINE" for his beloved to express the sentiments that he considered her the "shine of his life". She mistook it to be written in romanji as the japanese word for "to die" seeing it as a death threat and committed suicide for this reason. Taylor returns and hears about her death from Akio Negishi who upon making a perversed comment about his beloved drove Taylor into a rage where Negishi was strangled/hanged. He then resolved to murder the entire/key members of the Takeda family in the belief that they were responsible for her death. He sees Nobukazu Takeda as a perfect excuse for a callous victim as he was secretly involved in a drug smuggling operation.
He murdered Nobukazu by luring him to the lodge where the Takeda females committed suicide via telephone call. He would threaten to reveal his operation if he did not comply. Before this was set, he laid massive piles of silk thread in the attic, with one particular thread tied in the manner of a slingshot by the window. He lured Nobukazu to this position and to have him peak his head out by firing Bee Bee gun rounds against the pane. The instant he peaks out Robert would pull a string that would release the slingshot mechanism - effectively snapping Nobukazu's neck and leaving him dangling in silk threads much like the yokai curse. This was done at the time he was leaving to view constellations at an observation point on a motorbike so as to create an alibi.
Kazuha becomes an unwanted victim in his revenge scheme because she managed to find one of his Bee Bee rounds thinking it to be a pearl. When confronted and his plans revealed, he refused to confess until Heiji decides to reveal what really drove Misa to suicide and Conan tries to stop him knowing it would scar the murderer for life. Robert becomes utterly broken and as he is taken away by the police he repeatedly mutters "why did he have to be an American, why did could he not speak Japanese, and why she could not speak English" in the manner of a broken Karakuri Doll that had lost everything.
Remastered version
On October 29, 2007, a remastered version of the case was aired. All three episodes were edited and combined into one hour long special, and scenes were edited out to fit the timeslot. However, exclusive to the remastering new scenes were added to this version.
