Onikame Island Case

File 362 - A Dangerous Visitor

Heiji discovers an old anchor.

The message reads: "I am the emissary of the Guso (我はグソーの使いなり)." Heiji states that Taira had been murdered roughly two hours ago. The scratch marks and twigs on Taira's hands mean she was likely strangled in the forest before being dragged onto the sands. Conan explains that she was placed here recently because the wet sand stretches further up the beach, meaning the writing in the sand had to be written after the tide had receded. Heiji says they discovered the body on the opposite side of the island. Because everyone had been on the boat since an hour ago, the murderer is likely an outsider.
After taking photos of the scene, Ikema and Kume carry Taira back to the boat, wondering if she had seen something in the ocean while scuba diving. Suddenly, Heiji distracts Conan before rushing off into the treacherous sea to investigate. Using Conan's Wristwatch Flashlight, he discovers an old anchor resting amongst the rocks. Upon returning to shore, Heiji explains that he knew the currents were dangerously strong due to the existence of mackerel, which typically live in such environments. He also explains that he ran off the boat because he thought Taira might have been washed away by the strong currents.

Daito finds cigarettes that appear to have been recently used.

The group attempts to return to the boat, only to discover that the captain, Shimoji, has already sailed away, leaving them stranded. Ikema believes that Shimoji was the murderer, but Heiji and Conan deny it, saying they would've noticed a boat circling the island when they searched for Taira. Much to the dismay of everyone, Taketomi reveals that the TV officials are unaware of them being on the island. The crew was to hunt for locations yesterday, but after difficulties finding a willing captain, Taketomi discreetly rescheduled the event to the next day. Kogoro is left as their only hope, but he is seen partying with mayor Kaneshiro.
Back on the island, the group has taken refuge in the dilapidated house. Heiji shares his discovery of an anchor, stating that the anchor has been there for about four to five years based on the number of clams and vegetation on it. Ikema says that five years ago, mayor Kaneshiro's daughter was abducted, and a year later, a robbery group stole the family's prized folding screen. Based on a phone call the family received, they believe the same people committed the two crimes. Taketomi commiserates with the mayor as his wife died around the same time as the two crimes. In addition, one of his housekeepers was murdered in the robbery, and his butler resigned shortly after. To add insult to injury, a mysterious corpse wound up on an island he presided over, gouging the town's tourist numbers. Ran and Kazuha wonder if the princess from the first message was in reference to the mayor's daughter. Daito interjects that in myths, women held knives in their mouths to prevent their souls from being sucked out. He also discovers a bowl in the cupboard filled with cigarettes of various brands with its extinguishing water still present. Heiji and Conan consider the idea that multiple culprits may be hiding out on the island along with them.

File 363 - Mysterious Words

Three names on the height tracker.

The group considers that multiple culprits may be hiding out on the island and may even be in the house. Heiji tasks Daito, Kume, and Ikema with searching the upper floor while Taketomi joins the four protagonists in searching the first floor. The group of five eventually comes to the last room, which they cautiously open. On the other side is a vacant bedroom where Taketomi finds a photograph, identifying the room as the master bedroom of the mayor and his late wife. Heiji finds a second photograph hidden behind the first: it’s of mayor Kaneshiro and a young woman in front of a castle-like house. Taketomi explains that the woman in the picture is the mayor’s daughter, Miyako—who was kidnapped five years ago. He also reveals that he was cousins with the housekeeper the robbers murdered. In addition, he says that Ikema’s mother was the mayor’s wife’s sister, making him a direct cousin of Miyako. Conan notices that there’s writing on one of the walls recording heights of the family members. At the top, there is “Brother Chiyo (ちよにい),” then “Kaa-chan (かあちゃん),” and at the bottom is “Me (わたし).” Ran points out the oddity for a little girl to refer to her mother as “Kaa-chan.” But Conan discovers that “Kaa-chan” likely refers to someone else as he discovers writing indicating a room to be “Mama’s Room.” Heiji finds the other rooms, seeing similar labels of names. Brother Chiyo’s name comes with a doodle of an eel, and Kaa-chan’s name comes with a doodle of a bird.

Captain Shimoji found dead.

Suddenly, the group hears Kume’s screams coming from upstairs. They rush up to see a horrified Kume. Daito explains that he got scared from seeing a portrait of Miyako hidden behind a curtain. Ikema explains that Kume was a classmate of Miyako in elementary school, and Daito was a childhood friend of the mayor’s late wife.

Ran and Kazuha run towards it, but to their horror, they see a bludgeoned Shimoji hanging from the side of the hull, along with the same message as Taira written beside him.
