Trivia

• This is the second case that mentioned an earthquake, which happened recently in the past. The Mysterious Punishment From Heaven was the first.
• When Kogoro mentioned that 5 years ago, you could find a pay phone almost everywhere, and now, they are almost impossible to find. This is interesting, due to 5 years ago, Conan used the pay phone more than a regular phone, when not using the Earring Cellphone, and at this time, he is using cellphones practically all the time, and no longer uses the earring cellphone.
• This is the case that Kogoro was sleepy, so he sat down and simply fell asleep, leaving Conan time to investigate, and only woke up, when Conan opened a door to investigate further, since it was freezing cold. In short, he was woken up by the cold.
• This is the first time for Sato to see "Sleeping Kogoro" since she fiddled with his mouth in The Shinkansen Transport Case.
