<spoiler>Conan intervenes and leads them to safety. Taking a route towards the dam, Conan explains '''Keisuke Yamao''' is the culprit. Yamao robbed the jewelry store in a distant town and drives back to Kitanosawa. On the way, he runs over Natsuki, a scene which Touma notices. Touma is then kidnapped by Yamao and sees the diamonds, explaining why the diamond dust startled his memories. Touma escapes but falls down a cliff leading to his coma. Yamao then buries the jewels in a property in Kitanosawa and turns himself over to the authorities for Natsuki's death. Unexpectedly, the dam project forced the town of Kitanosawa underwater. As a result, Yamao decides to bomb the dam to search old-Kitanosawa for the diamonds. In order to have enough time to perform the search, he had to cancel the Governor's trip and destroy the cell site to prevent the outside world from learning off the dam's destruction.

The Governor of Tokyo, Yuichiro Asakura, receives a threatening letter the day before the opening of Touto Line, a new train line for the Tokyo Metropolitan Subway. During the opening ceremony of the line, Conan Edogawa and the Detective Boys are driven by Professor Agasa and pass under the Touto Line. Conan, having heard about the threatening letter, notices explosives connected to the rails.

Conan researches Asakura's political history for a clue on the culprit and learns that the governor was in charge of the construction of a dam in Kitanosawa, a town in the Niigata Prefecture. Due to the dam's construction, the citizens of Kitanosawa were forced into a new town and their old homes were submerged underwater. Since Asakura's trip to celebrate the anniversary of the dam is canceled by the bombing, Conan speculates information on the bomber could be found in Kitanosawa and plans a trip there.

Conan, the Detective Boys, Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri, and Sonoko Suzuki travel to Kitanosawa and enjoy the day playing. They are introduced to a group of locals; their names are Keisuke Yamao, Mizuki Tono, Fuyumi Tachihara, Takehiki Muto, and Shogo Hikawa. The group reveals they were all childhood friends and were part of the group which relocated to the new village. They also reveal its their first gathering in eight years since Yamao was in prison for killing Tono's younger sister, Natsuki Tono, in a hit and run.

    Trivia

    Mizuki in movie 17.
    The cup in episode 805.
    • This case is clearly modeled after The Time Limit is 15:00!, and The Cursed Tears of Borgia after it.
    • In Conan and Ebizo's Kabuki Jūhachiban Mystery (Part 2), Sumiko Kobayashi has given to Inspector Shiratori the coffee mug with love symbols that Haibara and the Detective Boys have bought for her in the gift shop "Snow White" of Kitanosawa Lodge house.
    • The Kitanosawa Dam is modeled after the Kurobe Dam, the highest dam in Japan that appears in the ending credits with the Kurobe Gorge Railway. It was projected by Carlo Semenza and Alberico Biadene, who were involved in a dam disaster very similar to this attempt.
    • The women in the live action ending theme are Keiko Furukawa and Mai Watanabe.
    • Mizuki reappears in Private Eye in the Distant Sea, then she was discharged for accidentally having pushed her sister to death.
    • Yamao's hit and run car is a blue 1993 Toyota MR2 GT TURBO [SW20]. The license plate number is 新宿 500, い 10-01 (Shinjuku 500, I 10-01).
    • Muto's car to rescue Detective Kids is a silver Toyota Land Cruiser Prado [J120].
    • Fuyumi Tachihara's off-road vehicle is a 1991 Black Suzuki Jimny [JA11V].
    • Tadao Azegami drives a supermini Suzuki Wagon R police car.
    • Dam's employees' off-road SUV is a 2007 Jeep Patriot [MK74]. The license plate number is 新潟 301, お 95-20 (Niigata 301, O 95-20), but a mistake occurs as in a scene, the license plate briefly changes to 新潟 500, そ 29-21 (Niigata 500, So 29-21).
    • A new train line for the Tokyo Metropolitan Subway in live action is Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line and the train is a Tokyo Metro 10000 series.
    • It is not confirmed, but Tadao Azegami could surely be Touma Tachihara's unmarried father, because they're very similar and, just like Fuyumi, he is very worried for him.
    • Mizuki Toono and Keisuke Yamao sniper rifle is a Winchester Model 70.
