Situation

A child asks the Detective Boys for help on investigating someone who is doing something weird. They are told to come by the next day. The next the kid's apartment has been burnt down. The only clue to the culprit is the kid's diary, mentioning the yellow guy who argued with the kid's father. Now Conan must solve this mystery while Haibara senses a Black Organization member nearby.

After school, Conan receives a phone call from Jodie who tells him that the Black Organization has received a new member codenamed Bourbon. Meanwhile, the Detective Boys receive a request from their classmate, Kaito Sugiura, to investigate the actions of a strange man at his apartment building which his father owns. The next day the Detective Boys find that the apartment has been burnt down.

Arson
	Location: Kaito Suigura's apartment Suspects: Ryuhei Hosoi, Subaru Okiya, and Ginya Makabe

The police reveal that all the residents have safely left the building; three people, who were not at home during the fire, are suspected to be the arsonist. The police find Kaito's diary and read Kaito's entry on the day of the fire. The diary mentions three residents and clues: In the morning, the "Red man" will be able to sleep in since it is raining; the "White man" man was able to help him when he fell; the suspicious "Yellow man" returned home at night and was arguing with Kaito's father. They believe the "Yellow man" is the culprit and interrogate the three suspects: Ryuhei Hosoi, a clumsy carpenter who injures himself often; Subaru Okiya, a graduate student who waters the plants of the apartment; and Ginya Makabe, a day trader. The police reveal that Kaito has a collection of model cars and has written Conan's name in his diary as Kuroshiro (黒白?, lit. Black and White).

Conan realizes who the murderer is and reveals the identities of the "Red man", "White man", and "Yellow man" are related to types of cars: The "Red man" is Subaru Okiya, he is compared to a fire truck since he waters the plants; The "White man" is Ryohei Hosoi, he is compared to an ambulance since he gave Kaito a band-aid after scrapping his knee; The "Yellow man" is Ginya Makabe, he is compared to a construction vehicle since Kaito saw him suspiciously digging in the garden. Ginya confesses to arson and reveals that he was burying the money he earned as a day trader to avoid taxes. When Kaito's father found out, they got into an argument resulting in Ginya pushing Kaito's father down a flight of stairs. Ginya, believing Kaito's father is dead, burns the building down to hide, what he believed to be, the murder. As Ginya is arrested, the Detective Boys ask why Conan was called Kuroshiro; Conan tells them he was compared to a police car. Subaru overhearing the Detective Boys talk about professor Agasa, asks them to introduce him to Agasa so he could become an apprentice and perhaps find a place to stay. Haibara refuses to allow Subaru to stay with the professor believing he is part of the Black Organization. Conan gives Subaru the keys to his house telling him Shinichi would allow it.

Situation

The next day, Ran and Sonoko head to Shinichi's house to clean it and run into Subaru. After witnessing his deduction skills, Sonoko decides to ask Shinichi and Subaru to solve a case involving paper planes with weird symbols on it found throughout the city in order to find out who would solve it first. Conan texts Ran the answers to his deduction the same moment Subaru explains his theory; They both believe the plane is an SOS. Subaru reveals that when the paper plane is unfolded, the symbols ··· — — — ··· is Morse code for SOS. The two give Subaru another plane they found with a different design; The plane contains the Morse code of zero with the design of a mobile phone signal on the other side. Subaru deduces that the plane means the victim is in a place with no cell phone reception, meaning he is held captive in a very tall building. The three decide to search for news on the television to find out if more planes were sent. They come upon the news that Ikou Daita, a man of a famous company, was kidnapped three days ago and they realize he is the one sending the paper planes.
