Onikame Island Case
File 362 - A Dangerous Visitor
The message reads: "I am the emissary of the Guso (我はグソーの使いなり)." Heiji states that Taira had been murdered roughly two hours ago. The scratch marks and twigs on Taira's hands mean she was likely strangled in the forest before being dragged onto the sands. Conan explains that she was placed here recently because the wet sand stretches further up the beach, meaning the writing in the sand had to be written after the tide had receded. Heiji says they discovered the body on the opposite side of the island. Because everyone had been on the boat since an hour ago, the murderer is likely an outsider.
After taking photos of the scene, Ikema and Kume carry Taira back to the boat, wondering if she had seen something in the ocean while scuba diving. Suddenly, Heiji distracts Conan before rushing off into the treacherous sea to investigate. Using Conan's Wristwatch Flashlight, he discovers an old anchor resting amongst the rocks. Upon returning to shore, Heiji explains that he knew the currents were dangerously strong due to the existence of mackerel, which typically live in such environments. He also explains that he ran off the boat because he thought Taira might have been washed away by the strong currents.
The group attempts to return to the boat, only to discover that the captain, Shimoji, has already sailed away, leaving them stranded. Ikema believes that Shimoji was the murderer, but Heiji and Conan deny it, saying they would've noticed a boat circling the island when they searched for Taira. Much to the dismay of everyone, Taketomi reveals that the TV officials are unaware of them being on the island. The crew was to hunt for locations yesterday, but after difficulties finding a willing captain, Taketomi discreetly rescheduled the event to the next day. Kogoro is left as their only hope, but he is seen partying with mayor Kaneshiro.
Back on the island, the group has taken refuge in the dilapidated house. Heiji shares his discovery of an anchor, stating that the anchor has been there for about four to five years based on the number of clams and vegetation on it. Ikema says that five years ago, mayor Kaneshiro's daughter was abducted, and a year later, a robbery group stole the family's prized folding screen. Based on a phone call the family received, they believe the same people committed the two crimes. Taketomi commiserates with the mayor as his wife died around the same time as the two crimes. In addition, one of his housekeepers was murdered in the robbery, and his butler resigned shortly after. To add insult to injury, a mysterious corpse wound up on an island he presided over, gouging the town's tourist numbers. Ran and Kazuha wonder if the princess from the first message was in reference to the mayor's daughter. Daito interjects that in myths, women held knives in their mouths to prevent their souls from being sucked out. He also discovers a bowl in the cupboard filled with cigarettes of various brands with its extinguishing water still present. Heiji and Conan consider the idea that multiple culprits may be hiding out on the island along with them.
File 363 - Mysterious Words
The group considers that multiple culprits may be hiding out on the island and may even be in the house. Heiji tasks Daito, Kume, and Ikema with searching the upper floor while Taketomi joins the four protagonists in searching the first floor. The group of five eventually comes to the last room, which they cautiously open. On the other side is a vacant bedroom where Taketomi finds a photograph, identifying the room as the master bedroom of the mayor and his late wife. Heiji finds a second photograph hidden behind the first: it’s of mayor Kaneshiro and a young woman in front of a castle-like house. Taketomi explains that the woman in the picture is the mayor’s daughter, Miyako—who was kidnapped five years ago. He also reveals that he was cousins with the housekeeper the robbers murdered. In addition, he says that Ikema’s mother was the mayor’s wife’s sister, making him a direct cousin of Miyako. Conan notices that there’s writing on one of the walls recording heights of the family members. At the top, there is “Brother Chiyo (ちよにい),” then “Kaa-chan (かあちゃん),” and at the bottom is “Me (わたし).” Ran points out the oddity for a little girl to refer to her mother as “Kaa-chan.” But Conan discovers that “Kaa-chan” likely refers to someone else as he discovers writing indicating a room to be “Mama’s Room.” Heiji finds the other rooms, seeing similar labels of names. Brother Chiyo’s name comes with a doodle of an eel, and Kaa-chan’s name comes with a doodle of a bird.
Suddenly, the group hears Kume’s screams coming from upstairs. They rush up to see a horrified Kume. Daito explains that he got scared from seeing a portrait of Miyako hidden behind a curtain. Ikema explains that Kume was a classmate of Miyako in elementary school, and Daito was a childhood friend of the mayor’s late wife.
With the house secure, everyone returns to the dining area to wait for the rescue ship. They hear the sound of a crash and see a boat at the pier. Ran and Kazuha run towards it, but to their horror, they see a bludgeoned Shimoji hanging from the side of the hull, along with the same message as Taira written beside him.
File 364 - The Emissary of Guso
Heiji identifies that Shimoji was bashed with a metal pipe multiple times—even after he died. Based on the presentation of the murder, Heiji believes that the murderer must’ve had a serious grudge. The crew believes there must be a group of murderers hiding around the island, as everyone was in the house when the boat crashed into the dock. However, Conan points out the boat is on autopilot, slated to make a loop around the island. Daito remains skeptical as the currents would’ve thrown the boat off its course. Heiji points out that the boat can accurately hit the pier by lining the boat’s course along the reef. He even highlights the many scrapes and cuts on the boat’s hull to prove it. One of them could have still killed Shimoji while everyone searched for Taira. The crew protest that no one could commit both murders simultaneously as the tide would’ve washed Taira’s message away.
Heiji informs the rest that the boat is out of fuel, meaning they’ll still have to wait for help. Conan and Heiji discuss the case. They find it odd how Taira was so gently put to rest while Shimoji was so violently bludgeoned. They also think about the odd ways the two victims spent their time on the island: Taira scuba diving in the treacherous currents and Shimoji circling the peripheral waters—they must’ve been looking for something. Finally, they discuss the names they found on the underside of the dining room chairs. There were three labeled ones: “Me,” “Mama,” and “Kaneshiro san.” Heiji wonders if Miyako wrote these labels and was the daughter of mayor Kaneshiro, why wouldn’t his chair say “Papa.”
Back at the house, Ran and Kazuha go look for food in the kitchen. They hear approaching footsteps and believe it’s the Emissary of Guso, but soon find that it is Heiji and Conan. In the commotion, the kitchen stools are knocked over, revealing Kaa-chan’s name written on it. Ran speculates that Kaa-chan refers to the housekeeper (“Kaseifu” in Japanese). Conan also finds Brother Chiyo’s stool but notices that under his name is written over a faded name: “Mr. Dojo (どじょうさん).” Since Dojo means Loach in Japanese, the doodle of an eel on Brother Chiyo’s door was likely a loach. Ran also says that Kaa-chan’s door has a bird on it since “Kaa” is the sound crows make. Kazuha instead says that Miyako likely copied the doodle of a bird from the White Herons on the family’s folding screen. Heiji and Conan have an epiphany after hearing Ran and Kazuha talk about Ryūgū-jō. Seeing Conan’s adult-like actions, Kazuha asks Ran if he’s lying about his age. This sparks another realization in Heiji and Conan as they run off to inspect Taira’s murder site. Seeing Conan’s past footprints still on the beach, the two determine who is the killer and their trick. But with no evidence, the two decide to prove their guilt by luring them into the “forest where the princess sleeps.”
