File 818 - Mystery Train ("All Aboard!")
Vermouth is on the phone with Gin. Vermouth passes on the information that Bourbon came across, which is that Sherry was hiding in Gunma and was going to travel on the Bell Tree Express, a train own by Suzuki family which hosts a special mystery onboard. Vermouth recalls her encounter with Conan and her promise to let Sherry go. She justifies the upcoming attack on Sherry as Bourbon's job and asks Gin not to interfere before the train reaches its destination.
At the Bell Tree Express, Conan, Ran, Sonoko, Agasa, and the Detective Boys including Haibara prepare to board the train. Haibara still has a cold and has her cold mask on to hide her indentity on the platform. The Detective Boys learn that the train usually runs only once a year, but this year will be different because Jirokichi Suzuki plans to run it a month later in another attempt to lure out Kaitou Kid. Sonoko also plans to place her love letter to Kid in the train car so he can receive it. Suddenly Masumi Sera shows up, and she says she is interested in the deduction quiz that will take place in the train. Haibara notices her and cover herself with her jacket's hood.
Next, the group witnesses the arrival of more passengers. Satoru Andou of 8C is the first to arrive, and he is traveling with a client's picture with a solid gold frame. Taisaku Noto (8A) and Mari Idenami (8E) show their familiarity with the conductor. Natsue Komino (8D), an old lady in a wheelchair, is accompanied by her maid Hiroka Sumitomo. And lastly, the angry Etsuto Murobashi appears (7B), and he accosts the conductor to demand his usual room in car 8. Kogoro (8B) introduces himself to the group after adjusting his mustache into the style of Hercule Poirot, explaining to him that his daughter, Ran, is a friend of the owner of the train, so he got a room on the luxury car. The passengers show shock reaction upon hearing his name.
In Agasa's room, 6B, Conan and the Detective Boys are chatting. Someone knocks on their door. They find a mystery card lying there, telling them they have received the role of detective that will investigate the murder which will occur in room 7B. The group (excluding Agasa) goes to 7B and witnesses a supposed murder incident. A masked man with hood shoots Etsuto Murobashi. They run after the murderer, but he gets away.
Later, they run into a train conductor, and learn that the quiz is suppose to happen an hour later. Conan, with a shocked expression, runs back to 7B only to found out that Ran, Sonoko, and Sera are there instead, and to complicate thing further, Ran's group tell them they're in 8B. It seems that after the murder happened, Car 7 disappear into thin air.
Meanwhile, Haibara, who's slightly behind Conan group, follows them half-heartly, show a strong reaction when Scar Akai leaves one of the rooms. But Scar Akai, who is dressed in a formal outfit, does not notice her and walks in the opposite direction. Haibara catches a glimpse of him.
File 819 - Mystery Train (Tunnel)
Conan tries to convince the train conductor that something was wrong with the mystery murder that took place to no avail, nevertheless, they learn more about the nature of the train. Passengers can ring a bell which turns on a light above their door to summon the carriage attendant who sits in the hall. Additionally, each car has no indication of its number inside, only from outside can one tell the car number, a feature added by Jirokichi Suzuki to make the train more mysterious. Meanwhile, Haibara recalls her encounter with Scar Akai a moment ago. She thinks he has the "feeling" of Dai Moroboshi but doesn't understand why he has a burn mark.
Conan then recalls seeing Sera holding a card when they first ran into Ran's cabin. They go back to 7B and confront the girls with the correct conclusion: everything happened in 7B all along and the girls had lied that the room was 8B. Ran's party received the role of accomplices (assigned by the card that Sera held) They temporarily switched their room from 8B to 7B with Murobashi (who will wait in Ran's room, 8B) while the incident happened as part of the trick. As the Detective Boys followed Conan into the room, Sera notices that Haibara is with the group, and she says she wants to have a word with Haibara as well. Haibara starts to look scared, but the conversation is cut short because had Scar Akai been lurking outside the door. Sera demands to know who was there, but Scar Akai hides himself before Sera sees him.
After the trick is revealed, they return to Ran's original room, 8B, to inform Murobashi that their trick got exposed. They try to open the door, but it is chained shut and Murobashi is "sleeping" on the couch. Just then, Sera and Conan notice the gunpowder smell and break the chain link to open the door. They found Etsuto Murobashi was killed in a sealed room!
File 820 - Mystery Train (First Class)
Conan and Sera explain the reason why Murobashi's case could not be a suicide. Conan then receives a message from an unknown sender and tells the Detective Boys to go back to their room with Ran, and shouts angrily when they don't comply. Haibara thinks about the "ominous feeling" inside her, as well as Conan's tense behavior, as she clinging to Ran and wonders what is going on. Immediately, Scar Akai walks past and glares at Haibara which frightens her. Tooru Amuro also appears right behind Scar Akai, and he explains to Ran how he got a train ticket from online bidding. This happens in the hallway, and the door nearest to the conversation is cracked open so that Subaru Okiya can watch them silently. Okiya is also accompanied by a woman resembling Vermouth with a hat pulled low over her face, who is seemingly busy with her cellphone. He says to her that, "Heaven is siding with us".
Jirokichi Suzuki, who waits at Nagoya station, orders the train to head there without stopping, so he can capture the murderer himself. Without any other choice, Kogoro, Conan, and Sera go to interrogate the passengers. Ran, Sonoko, Agasa, and the Detective Boys return to their room. Mitsuhiko brings up the subject of the woman who saved them from the fire in the last case. It is revealed that Mitsuhuko had sent a video recording of the woman to Kogoro, so Kogoro could find and thank her. Kogoro also thought of uploading the video to the internet. The woman is actually Shiho Miyano. This causes Haibara to panic and think her ominous feeling is due to Black Organization members on the train.
Jirokichi calls a meeting with the Nagoya Police directing them to restore his and their honor by capturing the murderer post haste. Gin and Vodka watch the pep rally from behind a column on the Nagoya platform. Gin receives an text from Vermouth that Sherry is indeed boarded the train.
File 821 - Mystery Train (Junction)
Conan is receives another unknown message. When Sera asks about and tries to look at the message, Conan quickly hides it and says he is just looking up the article on the past case that involves the victim and the passengers. Haibara also receives a message from an unknown address who claim to be Vermouth, asking, "Are you ready?" Haibara makes an excuse to go out. Ran notices her strange behavior and tries but fails to follow her.
Alone, Haibara recalls the tape left by her mother, Elena Miyano, which talks about Haibara's parents starting a drug project that will require them to leave Shiho and Akemi behind, a project they call "Silver Bullet". Haibara then regrets that she misunderstood and that the drug was something that shouldn't have been made. She looks at the antidote to APTX 4869 that she is holding and decides to take it so that she can avoid involving those with her in the Black Organization's plot to capture or kill her. Before she can take it, Okiya confronts Haibara, commenting that he can predict the "sisters" without fail, and invites her to "enter our area". Haibara runs away from him instead, thinking she can't be killed while in a shrunken state.
Conan is still investigating the case. He asks the suspects to be filmed while running. Sera leaves the group, intending to take the recordings to the Detective Boys to ask them which looks most like the masked suspect they chased earlier. On the way, Amuro notices her from a room and contacts someone with his cellphone. Scar Akai then walks pass the mysterious woman who had come with Okiya. The woman says something to Scar Akai as he passes which startles him. But before he can follow her, Sera confronts him and asks, "Who are you?" Scar Akai smiles and tells Sera, "you haven't changed a bit." and he reveals his face to her. Sera, surprised and confused, responds with "Shuu-nii". (nii is Japanese suffix to call an older brother).
File 822 - Mystery Train (Interception)
She questions Scar Akai, stating that she heard that Akai had died. Sera and Scar Akai's confrontation ends abruptly when Scar Akai knocks Sera unconscious with a taser. Scar Akai then replies that Sera's response was the one he wanted to hear. Elsewhere, Conan tranquilizes Kogoro to begin his deduction show. He accuses Satoru Andou of being the culprit. Amuro meanwhile appears by the suspects and helps explain his "sensei's" deductions. Ran receives a message from Haibara's address, saying she is fine and not to worry. Ran looks suspiciously at the message and still wants to keep looking for her but Agasa stops her.
Scar Akai goes to look at the passengers list left at the seat of one of the attendants. He leaves when the conductor stops him. Then it is revealed that under conductor's chair is a mysterious canister. Scar Akai then listens to Ran's conversation in 6B with a bugging device.
While the deduction show still continues, Scar Akai enters the room belonging to the mysterious lady and throws her luggage out of the train window. The mysterious woman appears at the door and tells Scar Akai that the dress in the luggage was her favorite. The mysterious woman reveals herself to be Yukiko Kudo by naming Scar Akai as her old friend, "Sharon". Scar Akai rips his mask off and confirms Yukiko's deduction that he is none other than Vermouth.
File 823 - Mystery Train (Releasing Smoke)
After revealing themselve to one another, Vermouth shows surprise that Yukiko is on the train too. Yukiko brings up the fact that Vermouth doesn't age. Vermouth asks about the words Yukiko said in the corridor when Vermouth past her as Scar Akai, which Yukiko implies that "Shin-chan's"' team is one step ahead of Vermouth. Namely, an unconciousness Sera has been taken back to her own room (by Okiya). Vermouth wonders how they could manage that, because Conan is occupied by deduction show and Yukiko is talking to her. (She doesn't know the present of Okiya) Yukiko replies by say they have a "special guest" on board. Meanwhile, in the deduction scene, Andou admits his crime and explain his motive. His wife was killed in the fire. Etsuto Murobashi is responsible for setting it up so he can steals a valuable picture in the mansion unnoticed.
Yukiko boasts to Vermouth that they got a hold of Vermouth's weak point, which is Vermouth doesn't want anyone, including her partner on the train, to know about Conan and Haibara's regress in age. And Vermouth's software order from CG programmer, Suguru Itakura that probably involves the de-ageness. Yukiko also show her surprise that Vermouth had a fight with Itakura on film set even though Sharon is known for her consideration for staffs. Vermouth responses to Yukiko's boast by say she is the one who saw through Yukiko team's plan. Vermouth deducts that they will try to fake Shiho Miyano's death so the Black Organization will let go of her for goods. Vermouth explain that that Haibara can't be shown dead in her child body because it will cause the Detective Boys to panic and cry, which would bring the Black Organization's attention to them as Sherry's acquaintances. But if Haibara dies in her original body (played by Yukiko with makeup) and those who know her secret keep quiet about that, then the Detective Boys will not cause chaos. This scene will also result in heavily check of passengers belonging upon disembarkment and the Black Organization won't be able to take "Sherry's" body away for double check. Vermouth tells Yukiko that's not only Yukiko's lugguage that she disposed off, but the bullet-proof vest with blood contraption that she hidden in basin closet as well. Yukiko say they're even because even Vermouth see though her plan but doesn't found Haibara. Vermouth reveals her trick to smoke Haibara out by detonatING mutilple smoke bombs she placed earlier. (The bombs can be seen under attendent seat and also in the crime scene)
At the deduction scene, Amuro is the first to notice the smoke, concludes the train is on fire and tells everyone to evacuate to the front of the train. The suspects, who are pyrophobics after survive the mansion fire incident become panicked and run. But Conan has to wake Kogoro up and urges Komino and Sumitomo of room D to hurry up and leave. Next, Vermouth correctly deducts that Haibara won't escape the fire to the front like everyone else, but went on to the opposite direction. then we are shown of Haibara, now in her original body, run through the smoke passes the victim room (7B). A voice from behind states that Shiho is "as expected of Hell's Angel's daughter" that she is "very much alike". The voice belongs to Amuro, who introduces himself to Shiho with his codename, Bourbon.
File 824 - Mystery Train (Final Destination)
Ran met Kogoro and ask him where're Haibara and Sera (she assume he'd know because they should pass his deduction site at some point.) But Kogoro doesn't know. The train conductor tries to calms the passengers down from panic about the fire, say the staffs yet to know the detail of the situation but will try to make sure as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Vermouth continues to predict Sherry's movement that she will head to the back of train, rather be killed by the Organization than involve her friend. Conan then phones Yukiko to informs her he can't find Haibara anywhere. Vermouth grabs Yukiko's phone away and impersonates her on the phone, tell Conan that Haibara probably escaped to the front like everybody else. Vermouth then got message from Bourbon, confirms that Sherry is indeed in carriage 8, tell Yukiko that's it's Vermouth's team win.
At carriage 8, Bourbon tells Sherry he has met her parents and sister. Sherry said she have heard about him and knows he is rival to Moroboshi Dai, Akemi's lover. Bourbon says Dai is an FBI mole, as he suspected. When he heard that Dai/Akai is dead, he don't believe it at first and enlists Vermouth's help to disguises himself as Akai and wandering around people who know Akai to observes their reactions. Except this time, he has Vermouth disguises in place of him. His conclusion is Akai is really dead.
At Nagoya station. Gin comments that Jirokichi and Aichi police head presence only make the explosion seem like an attempt on their lives, cover black orgainzation's intention. He then becomes surprise when Vodka informs him Vermouth was asking for more explosive for the plan, without tells him the purpose.
Bourbon, meanwhile, reveals his plan to take Sherry back to the Black Organization alive. He'd have her steps inside the storage hold, knocks her out, bombs the carriage link to seperate the storage hold form the rest of the train, and then has helicopter on his side take her away. Sherry refuses the plan, states that storage hold is full of explosive, cause Bourbon to realize that Vermouth has altered the plan, and want to kill Sherry from the start. Sherrys steps away behind the door, while another figure appears behide Bourbon, obscured by smoke. Bourbon asks if the figure's Vermouth but he throw a hand grenade at him. Bourbon then astonishingly ask who he was. The figure is reveal to the readers (seem not to Bourbon) that he has Shuichi Akai's face, without scar, and dresses in an outfit like those of Okiya Subaru's, seemingly wearing Sera's hat. The grenade explodes, interruping their (one-side) conversation. The storage hold is seperate from the train, seconds later, the storage hold itself explode, triggered by Vermouth's cellphone.
Vermouth explains to Yukiko she purposefully detonates the second bomb after heard of the first, makes sure the explosion won't cause the train to derails. Vermouth leaves the room while Yukiko screaming for Haibara, but she stop immediately after Vermouth's out of sight. Bourbon is left wondering who's the figure was, but he seem to has an idea.
The train stops, passengers disembark. Vermouth phones Gin about the situation, that Bourbon saw Sherry dies in the explosion, which Gin stills shows doubt about Sherry's survival. Gin points out that Vermouth want an explosion on the train so the train can't reach its destination at Nagoya (where Gin wait). Vermouth say they have to be questioned, along with other passenger and say Gin should be satisfied enough for hearing that Sherry is dead. Vermouth hangs up and hear the Detective Boys talk to Agasa (who has Haibara sleeping on his back) about how they find Haibara in room 7B. The story is Haibara got dizzy after taking the drug for her cold, decided to rest there. The room is empty due to being the crime scene. Vermouth realizes Yukiko team figured that the room is where haibara will go to, waited for her there to take her to safty. Conan's phone call to Yukiko is just an acting to keep Vermouth in Yukiko's room. But Vermouth can't figured out who the woman who supposedly killed in front of Bourbon.
