The police inspector from the Kaitou Kid task force, Ginzo Nakamori prepares his team of officers for Kid's arrival. It is now airing on television. Everyone is watching. There's eight helicopters flying around and over two hundred officers guarding from the tower. As they go to synchronize their watches, Nakamori hesitates with the time, and is interrupted by the date and time down to the millisecond. Saguru Hakuba has arrived, with a silver pocketwatch, inverness coat, and high attention to detail. Nakamori recognizes Saguru Hakuba from the news, but dismisses him as an amateur until Superintendent General Hakuba, the head of the Tokyo police force and Saguru's father, persuades Nakamori to show his son the ropes of real police work. Convinced to work with Saguru, Nakamori offers to answer any questions, only to be interrogated about details regarding Kid that no one has answers to.
Saguru Hakuba found one yellow thread near the bronze statue. He confirms that there's no doubt it's Spider. Aoko and Keiko are watching television.
In the basement, Kid came out of the vent. He used the goggles to see some laser security grid. Kid uses the suction cup gun and shoots. The suction cup is now on the ceiling. Kid climbs up carefully while not touching the laser security grid. Until sudden, the great detective Hakuba appears. Hakuba releases the anesthetic gas and he's about to put the gas mask on. Kid uses the card gun to shoot on the gas mask and tried to get it. Kid and Hakuba are struggling each other to get the gas mask. The time is counting down for Kid's appearance.
The smoke comes from the floor and Hakuba appears. He declares that Kid has been arrested. Every viewers are now shocked. Hakuba then tells Nakamori that Kid is sleeping in the basement. Nakamori orders the officers to go there and arrest him. The newsreporter asks Hakuba how does it feel to capture Kid. After Hakuba answers, the balloon appears on his back. At the basement, the police found the real Hakuba unconscious. The police report to Nakamori that it's Hakuba, not Kid. The fake Hakuba now reveals himself as Kid. He went on top of the statue, hold the statue with his legs, and tries to get away with the balloon. Unfortunately, the statue's been linked with the chain to the floor. So now, Kid got the purple gem from the statue's right eye and checks for Pandora to the moonlight. There's no Pandora and he declares he will be returning back. He let the statue go and flies away with the balloon. The police helicopters are going after him.
