* '''Evidence'''

 +
There's no doubt that Dino Cavane and his accomplices are responsible for the theft of the Maple Leaf coins, but Cavane refuses to say where the coins are hidden.
 +
 
 +
Conan and the Detective Boys find a piece of paper with odd symbols drawn on it and the word "ORO" as they leave a museum.
 +
 
 +
After looking at an Italian-Japanese dictionary Conan realizes "ORO" means "Gold" in Italian. Conan is shocked to realize he and the Detective Boys really ''did'' find a treasure map.
 +
 
 +
Conan is puzzled why someone who is Italian would make a reference to a Japanese street name near Touto Tower.
 +
 
 +
* '''Conclusion'''
 +
 
 +
Conan realizes that the shapes on the treasure map really refer to the shapes of neon signs near Touto Tower. It wouldn't make sense for someone who does not speak Japanese to make a reference to a Japanese named street, but rather draw pictures of recognizable objects they saw.
 +
 
 +
Conan and the Detective Boys manage to find the location of the missing Maple Leaf coins only to be confronted by Cavane's thugs. Thanks to Conan's quick thinking, Conan and the Detective Boys manage to knock the thugs unconscious and run to the police.
