After searching nearby schools using Jumbo as transportation and a guide, Conan determines that what Akiko saw outside the school window wasn't a chimney at all, but rather the side of a large skyscraper. Conan then finds Akiko but is unable to take down the kidnapper due to his shrunken size.  Thankfully, Ran uses her karate on the kidnapper in the nick of time.

A CEO's daughter has been kidnapped. According to the butler, Asao, she was taken from the house's garden by a man in black, without alerting any of the guard dogs on the premises. The kidnapper demands that the CEO shut down his company for a while, as well as deliver a large ransom.

  • Resolution

    Manga to anime changes

    • The younger Shinichi is in a medical center at Tropical Land whereas in the anime he runs off after being awoken by the police.
    • In the manga, Tani immediately puts the vacation plans with Akiko on hold (much to the latter's disappointment). The anime leaves this scene out.
    • Rather than showing Conan being introduced to his new class (with Genta, Ayumi and Mitsuhiko as students), the manga version of the story end with Conan reflecting on how he is incapable of fighting the bad guys in his younger form.

    Dub changes

    • In the English Dub, Ran pointed out that Kogoro did not have a case, with him responding that he polished off a case (a case of beer), whereas in the Japanese Version, Ran states that his messy office is why Eri left him and why Kogoro hasn't had work with him responding that he's selective with his job.
    • In the English Dub, Conan blushes during Ran's hug because his disguise worked, whereas in the Japanese Version he blushed because he felt her chest.

    Remastered version

    On April 11, 2009, a remastered version of the case was aired.
