Dangerous Cave Case
File 254 - An Infatuated Heart
Conan is eventually saved thanks to Ran's blood donation. He wonders how Ran discovered the truth and what he should do. Heiji and Kazuha come to visit Conan at the hospital, and Heiji suggests Shinichi should tell Ran the whole truth, as she's waiting only for it. During the night, Haibara sneaks into Conan's room and takes aim at him with a gun.

File 255 - The Intruder's Sudden Arrival
Haibara tells Conan she was actually spotted by the Organisation after the hotel case with Pisco, and she made a deal with them : her life spared in exchange for Shinichi's and all his relatives' death. Eventually, Haibara shoots...a bunch of flowers at Conan, mocking him but telling him the possibility that there could have been another Black Organisation member at the party that night. She talks about Ran's discovery but doesn't really recommend that Shinichi should tell Ran the truth. She suggests either that solution, or to remain silent, or... The day after, Conan seems back up and about, though with a little cold, and insists to attend Ran's school play in which she will headline. A strange man strongly resembling Shinichi sits in the audience, smirking, being attentively watched by Conan. Kogoro and Kazuha came as well, and a group of friends, all of them working at Beika Hospital, are having a drink, waiting for the play to begin. During the play, as Ran is on stage, dressed as a princess, Sonoko tells Dr. Araide, who is supposed to play the knight charming, to prepare to enter the stage, but is flabbergasted as the knight isn't Araide. As the unknown knight and Ran are about to kiss each other, one of the hospital employees screams out in pain and drops dead.
File 256 - Concealed Truth
The victim, Kohei Kamata, died after swallowing cyanide, probably put in his drink. His comrades from the hospital are suspected one after the other, along with Ayako, a girl from Ran's high school who was serving drinks at the refreshment. She is the hospital's president's daughter and had recently broke off her engagement with Kohei. She served him coke instead of iced coffee, hoping he would come to see her while changing drinks. Mai, Kohei's friend, had proposed to fetch drinks before the beginning of the play, and she gave all of them to her other comrades Yota and Yumemi, sitting next to Kohei. Sonoko and Dr. Araide can't reveal for now who is the mysterious knight, though they know it. The other mysterious man looking like Shinichi was actually Heiji in disguise, hoping to lure Ran and have her allay all her doubts concerning Conan and Shinichi. But Heiji was confounded by Kazuha. Meanwhile, he investigates the murder, just as the knight, and refuses to conclude to a suicide. Eventually, the knight takes off his helmet and reveals to be Shinichi.
File 257 - Revival Under the Threat of Death
Shinichi astounds everyone, Ran in first, and sheds light on the case. The culprit is actually Mai Kogami, she had prepared two ice cubes with some cyanide inside each, and she discreetly put one in Kohei's iced coffee, and one in her own iced coffee, as she didn't know which one would go to Kohei, while fetching the drinks. Then she drank her iced cofee very rapidly, before the ice cubes could melt, whereas Kohei took his time but ate the cubes after finishing, as he would do in general, eating therefore the cyanide. Mai went to the bathroom before the play to discard the airtight wallet in which she had put the ice cubes along with dry ice to keep them cool. She fetched the drinks just before the lights went off to prevent Kohei from going and changing his drink once the play would begin, in the dark, when he'll realise it is coke and not coffee. After she drank her coffee, Mai took her poisoned ice cube who hadn't completely melted, and put it in her jacket's hood, explaining why she didn't put her hood in the rain, not to get poison on her head. Heiji confirms it by showing the cleaned rust of a 10-yen coin after it has been in contact with the poison in Mai's hood. Mai confesses to killing Kohei, she wanted to avenge the death of an old cancerous man Kohei was treating but that he had killed on purpose by changing his treatment, thus speeding up the progression of the disease, in order to add quick results to his PhD medical thesis. When Kohei said, drunk, that he couldn't get it how a 18-year old could have dumped him while he as a doctor could decide the life and death of anyone, Mai stole cyanide at the hospital and planned her murder. When Shinichi tells Heiji he'll never understand why human beings kill each other, he feels the usual intense pain preceding his shrinking, and tries to escape but passes out in front of everybody.

Elevator Murder Case
File 258 - Momentary Rest
To his great surprise, Shinichi didn't shrink, and was merely taken to the sickroom. It is revealed that Conan was actually Haibara in disguise, wearing a voice-changing mask to speak with Conan's voice. She tells Shinichi that though she doesn't understand why the prototypical antidote she made out of some baikal and gave him at the hospital lasted longer than usual, Shinichi should be very careful and tell Ran the truth before something bad could happen. Shinichi says he want to enjoy some time with Ran first, and invites the latter to a dinner in a five-star restaurant. Shinichi tries to tell something very important to Ran but remains shy and hesitant. When he eventually takes the plunge, people start screaming and saying someone was murdered in an elevator.
Translation changes
- In File 258, Shinichi is shown to still retain some of his habits as Conan. One such example is him referring to Ran as Ran-nēchan. As the Viz Media versions of the manga tends to omit the usage of Japanese Honorifics, (save for the manga version of "Solitary Island of the Princess and the Dragon King's Palace" in Volume 36 and "A Friendship That Can't Be Bought" in Volume 39), Shinichi instead is asking for Ran to hold his hand when they cross the street on the way to school.
File 259 - A Tranquil Time
Ran allows Shinichi to rush to the elevator as she observes he's having great trouble keeping his concentration and forgetting the hustle and bustle around them. Shinichi promises to come back as quickly as possible. The victim, Taiji Tatsumi, a famous game company president, was shot in the head while in the elevator, after he had left his employees to go home. Shinichi doesn't believe in the mugging theory and starts suspecting Satoru Ooba, probably the next heir to the president's company after his wedding with Sakurako, the president's daughter. Shinichi tries to confound Satoru while Ran is told by a waitress that some twenty years ago, a high school couple was sitting at the same table Ran and Shinichi currently are, and that the man proposed to the woman in front of everyone. But Ran doesn't believe Shinichi could do such a thing. Meanwhile, Shinichi feels increasingly feverish and his heart bangs against his chest, meaning that he'll soon become Conan again.
