From East to West on the map:

The fifth row stands for "Gojyou Avenue",

The fourth row Shijyou Avenue",

Between the second and third row, "Oike Avenue".

From North to South:
 +
The violet which is "Ogawa Avenue" from the song 'Haru no Ogawa'
 +
The tengu is represented in "Karasuma Avenue"
 +
The character "fu" is "tomi" so it is "Tominokouji Avenue" for Mt. Fuji
 +
The loach is related to "Yana gawa nabe", which represents "Yanaginobanba Avenue"
 +
The chicken is "Nishinotouin Avenue"
 +
For the cicada there's an "abura semi" which relates to "Aburanokouji Avenue"
 +
The tengu again represents "Karasuma Avenue"
 +
The goldfish has something to do with "fu", so it is "Fuyachou Avenue"

They connected the purple colored violet and Mt. Fuji , the chicken to loach, cicada to goldfish, and both tengu's, it would mean "king". Then they figured out the small dash was also a symbol. Tama can be read as Gyoku, jewels. The dash points to Bukkou Temple. They quickly run to the temple but Heiji loses stamina fast because of his injuries. They stop at Rokakku Building for a some rest. Conan tells Heiji that the temple he snuck into was Sannou Temple, because of the blossoms, and the latticed window he mentioned. He also breaks the news that the crystal ball he treasures so much wasn't from the girl he saw, but from the Buddha statue's Byakugou. He reasons that the robbery group Genjibotaru snuck into Sannou temple eight years ago and stole it. While exiting the crystal fell to the floor. Yoshtsune soon noticed it and sent a member of the group to find it. But as he was about to get it, he saw Heiji standing next to the sakura tree where it fell. The leader stored the statue, and later found out the boy was him because of the article. Around the same time or close to it, the leader died, but hid the statue's location. On his death bed he gave the seven men clues to the whereabouts of the statue. Whoever found the statue would be the new leader of the group. After death the servants weren't able to figure it out, and so Sakura enlisted help from another member because of his skill as a swordsman. And when they find the statue they split the profit from selling it. However Sakura felt he was safe as he held access to the routes of the black market. The killer hid his true intentions and agreed, soon killing all the members of the group and take all the treasure.

Kazuha is kidnapped by the murderer because Heiji is too injured to do anything. The only way Kazuha will be let go is if Heiji himself goes and rescues her.Heiji comes in and takes the crystal from his pocket. He says that he attacked Sakura at the tea house in Hontochou. It wasn't Giyon or Miyagawachou because the tea house had a river behind it. He took the Sakura's copy of the photo in his pocket and put it in a terminal. One that security companies use for thefts and lost individuals, and put in the weapon in a plastic bottle and threw it in the Misogigawa river. Later, he accessed the security company's website to find the bottles location, which was recovered later.

Conan said he's been pretty busy working on the case and Ran told Conan (as Shinichi) to be careful because there's going to be a cold weather. Kogoro is singing while being drunk. He's singing about Yoshinoyama which refers to a play written about two characters in Japanese history. Minamoto Yoshitsune and his concubine, Shizuka Gozen.
