Mysterious Shadow Case
File 010 - An Advantageous Shadow
Gadgets introduced
To keep Conan's cover as a child, Agasa enrolls Conan in 1st grade at Teitan Elementary School. Bored by the simple curriculum, during PE Conan decides to test the new gadget Professor Agasa gave to him earlier (the Power-Enhancing Kick Shoes) using moderate power while playing soccer. To his and his classmates shock, the soccer ball shoots through the goal net and knocks over a large tree. On his way home, grumbling to himself about Agasa's lack of moderation, Conan notices Kogoro shadowing someone.
After 3 days of easy work, Kogoro receives payment of 500,000 yen. Ran wonders if Conan has brought them good luck, and when Kogoro asks how long Conan is going to be staying, explains that Agasa told her that Conan's parents are out of the hospital but left overseas on urgent business. Kogoro also finds Conan's face oddly familiar, but his train of thought is interrupted by a news report that Masaki Negishi, the man Kogoro had been following, was found murdered at the fire festival in Akaoni Village.
File 011 - A Perfect Alibi
Kogoro, Ran, and Conan go to the police station, where they find Inspector Megure questioning Yutaka Abe, the man who hired Kogoro to tail Masaki. He received 500 million yen as the beneficiary of Masaki's life insurance policy. He said that he hired Kogoro because Masaki had been worried about his life being in danger. Although Yutaku is the primary suspect for the murder, he has a perfect alibi - being out of the country when Masaki was found dead. Kogoro swears to expose Yutaka because Kogoro can't stand to be used as part of a killer's alibi, and they return home to examine the photos of Yutaku's trip and those photos Kogoro took while tailing Masaki. As he does, Kogoro grows suspicious of Conan's conveniently helpful innocent comments, but Conan distracts him by 'childishly' mixing the two photo batches together. With Kogoro distracted, Conan looks for a hint to break Yutaka's too-perfect alibi, and notices something about one of the photos.
File 012 - The Picture Speaks
Conan finds a discrepancy between some of the photos, but can't tell Kogoro without being suspicious. To solve the case, since Yutaka plans to pay off his company's debts and leave the country that night, Conan uses the Voice-Changing Bowtie to summon Kogoro and the police to Narita Airport. While they figure out that neither of them actually cracked the alibi, Conan confronts Yutaka alone over his faked alibi and manages to record a confession. Yutaka snaps at having been tricked, and Conan uses his shoes and a spare tire to leave Yutaka unconscious in the parking lot with the tape recorder playing his confession. Kogoro and the police find him like that while Conan hides nearby. The next day, Kogoro mentions that Yutaka claimed he was beaten by a kid, and Conan is the closest child around... but Ran, seeing Conan asleep on the desk with kid's TV show Yaiba playing, says it's impossible.
