Murderer Kogoro Mouri Case
File 264 - A Taste of One's Own Medicine
Kogoro takes Ran and Conan to a mountain hotel but he mostly enjoys the swimming pool, checking girls out. Once out of the pool, they come upon Eri, who came to this hotel with a few friends, lawyers as well, as part of a lawsuit having to do with a factory and a village in the surroundings. Kogoro and Eri belittle each other just like usual, but Eri says to Ran in secret that she feels like to reconcile with Kogoro, by offering him a tie, but Ran must not say anything for the moment. They also meet Norifumi Saku, a young lawyer that leaves Eri far from indifferent, and it is mutual. They organise a dinner with everyone and they meet Eri's fellow barristers Mikasa, Shiozawa and Usui. Kogoro drinks way too much and starts hitting on Usui, which angers Eri who leaves the table. Some time after, when tempers aren't flaring anymore, everyone looks for Kogoro, who hasn't given some sign of life since a moment. They search everywhere and end by Usui's room, where they hear the ringing of Kogoro's phone from the inside. Some time before, Usui had deliberately brought a drunk Kogoro in her bed in order to blot Eri's copybook and to become the new queen of the Bar. But Usui had been interrupted by a door knock. Later on, when Eri and co try to open Usui's door, they find it locked from the inside with the safety chain, and glimpse an unconscious Usui on the floor. Saku doesn't wait for the groom to come and breaks down the door. Usui has been strangled with a telephone wire, and in the bed there's Kogoro, who wakes up unaware of the hustle and bustle around him.
File 265 - An Important Witness
Eri refuses to defend Kogoro then Saku will be his barrister. Eri warns that Kogoro may be sentenced to the death penalty, but the real reason why she doesn't want to defend him isn't because she believes her husband killed Usui but rather because many things are odd in the room and concerning the murder, and then she can't believe Kogoro murdered Ritsuko Usui. She investigates along with Ran, Conan and Yamamura, and Conan finally deduces who is the true killer.

Bear Hunters Case
File 273 - Stuck on the Same Boat
The Detective Boys are going and picking Matsutake mushrooms in the forest. Answering to Genta's contemptuous comment about apples being very common fruits, Haibara says that the apple is the Garden of Eden's forbidden fruit, and that after eating from it, Adam and Eve were chased from there, therefore apples are very mysterious fruits, with the eternity inside. Conan helps the Detective Boys to find matsutakes by telling them to look for it near dried up pinetrees, in a both wet and sunny location. Genta notices many matsutakes on the other side of a mesh fence, with no public access except hunters, as bears are living in the area, but still decides to cross it anyway. In order to find Genta who still hasn't come back, the Detective Boys split into two groups : Ai and Mitsuhiko, and Conan, Agasa and Ayumi. Mitsuhiko starts falling in love with Haibara and wonders if she's already loving Conan. The two find a hole in the wire and meet a bear cub who has been frightened, and suddenly they stumble upon the corpse of a hunter who was shot down a very short time ago. Mitsuhiko and Haibara are targeted as well by the hunter's killer and run away in the forest. Meanwhile, Genta is found by Conan and co, but not Mitsuhiko and Haibara. They meet three hunters who wonder what they're doing here and tell them it's very dangerous. They decide to help Agasa and his group to find Mitsuhiko and Haibara. These latter catch sight of the group but notice among them the hunter who targeted them and can't show up, fearing they might be killed, mistaken for bears, or that the hunter stops the research, finds them and kills them.
