Online Client

Conan and Amuro encounter a murder in the detective agency.

File 796 - The Meeting At Columbo

While Kogoro and the group are watching a news report on a recent bank robbery, Amuro stops by with sandwiches from the Poirot after finishing his part time job for the day. After commenting on the robbery, Amuro reveals that he wants the scoop on Kogoro's newest case request after deducing from Kogoro's appearance and habits that Kogoro had a case. Kogoro gets a text from the client requesting that Kogoro switch the meeting location to the Café Columbo, and Amuro goes with them after changing out of his work clothes.

At the Columbo, Kogoro explains to Amuro the request was to find the locker a key belongs to. The client fails to show, so Amuro, Kogoro, Conan, and Ran go back to the Mouri Detective Agency to make sure the client didn't actually turn up there instead. When Amuro arrives at the agency, he and Conan notice someone had broken in and appeared to have intercepted the client while they were out. Stepping outside, Amuro explains his deductions to the rest of the gang and that the culprit is hiding in the restroom. Before Amuro can open the bathroom door, a gunshot rings out, and Conan rushes in to find a dead man who apparently committed suicide with a gun and a taped-up crying woman.

File 797 - Intertwined Lies and Mysteries

The group escort Kei Kashitsuka back to her condo. Kei goes tidy her room but secretly leaves the condo with Conan following her. As Kogoro, Ran and Amuro waiting for Kei they start searching for listening devices as when Sera called Ran the former's voice wasn't clear. After they locate the final listening device in a suitcase under the bed, Kogoro, Ran and Amuro open it to find a man beaten to death inside it.

File 798 - Detectives' Nocturne

Kashitsuka drugged Conan with a fruit juice. Later they receive an email from Kei Kashitsuka and order them not to attempt to find her or she won't guarantee Conan's safety. Ran contacted Agasa for help while Kogoro and Amuro discovered more information.

From the evidence that Conan gathered during time at the gas station, he concluded that Kei Kashitsuka's real name is Serina Urakawa, a bank employee where the recent robbery took place.

File 799 - A Child's Curiosity and a Detective's Spirit of Inquiry

  Show spoilers »

Serina isn't Kenya Shouno's younger sister but is his lover. The name Kei Kashitsuka actually belongs to the man that Serina murdered at Mouri Detective Agency, using shoe rope trick to pull the trigger. Her motive is to kill the three robbers that was responsible for Kenya's death and so she tracked down his friend named Kei Kashitsuka. However she stumbled across one of Kei's friends (one of the robbers) and in self-defense, killed him. After planted several listening devices, Serina heard that Kei will hire Kogoro to search for the location of the rest of money, and so she ambushed him at the agency. She used stun-gun on him, switched their belonging and used the trick described above to make it seem that she's a victim.

File 800 - When Objects Collide

  Show spoilers »

Okiya prepared to draw a gun and disable the kidnapper's car

Amuro wonders why someone is present.

Conan then furthered his deduction by saying that he know that Serina will commit suicide after she murdered the third robber. Serina then accepted his condition and so he told her that the third robber's true identity is Takayo Tegawa. From the footage and information from Serina, Conan concluded that the third robber's true identity is Takayo Tegawa as both Toyokita and Furiya are right-handed (Tegawa is the only left-handed person). Tegawa's suspicious actions are also serve as an evidence, she bought beef-bowl rice to change the 10,000 yen bills number and she switched off her phone to prevent the police to find her. After the deduction Serina agreed to turn herself in but she said that one thing is wrong, she only took 2 guns from Kei Kashitsuka's hideout, alerting Conan that the third one must still in Tegawa's possession. They were later abducted by Tegawa, who used Conan as a hostage to intimidate Serina.

Fortunately, Okiya's car arrived at the scene just as they started driving away. According to the tracking device, Haibara figured out that Conan was inside that car. They informed Kogoro about this information, and Amuro then noticed their car running pass them on the other side of the street. He increased the speed to catch up with the trio, and crashed his own car into theirs in order to stop it. Sera, who had been closely following him this whole time, ran her motorcycle up and knocked off the robber. After everything was over, Vermouth arrived at the scene and gave Bourbon a call, asking him/her if he/she would keep his/her promise with her. Subaru, Amuro, and Sera all received a phone call at the same time Vermouth dialed leaving it unclear which one of the three is really Bourbon.
