As usual the death was not a suicide but a murder committed by '''Hiroto Akashi'''. Conan lost his voice in the middle of the investigation and so he had to play charades to get Inspector Yamamura, Sonoko, and Mouri to figure out the murder method. Hirota bound and gagged his step father's mouth and wrists using a napkin and rope respectively. The cord used to activate the light in his bedroom along with a few extracted electric cables were tied around critical points in his teeth. Having put him in the proper hanging position he forces his step-father to hold the bite otherwise his neck would have instantly snapped. The napkin apart from hiding large curry traces (eating huge quantities being an irregular activity for one about to commit suicide) was primarily used to prevent Iwao Akashi from calling for help. Ran hears this as the old man giving a muffled cry to establish an alibi for Hiroto who was busy cleaning dishes in the kitchen. After feeling secure, Hiroto finishes the job by pulling at the cord in the dining room. The lights in the household operate simultaneously. It is explained there are three phases to the lights in the Akashi household. If Hiroto had the lights preset to the standby orange light then he could turn off the light in his father's room. Incidentally the cords in his step-father's room retract when doing so, so this releases all the ropes binding his mouth, hanging him, and violently tearing out two of his molars in the process. | As usual the death was not a suicide but a murder committed by '''Hiroto Akashi'''.
