Three years before, the victim had killed the suspects only son in a drunk driving, and had managed to get off lightly. The suspect was unhelpful and insisted he could not remember what happened the evening of the crime when he encountered the victim by chance at a hotel. Kisaki, with the help of Ran and Conan, tracked down the suspects estranged wife to the eatery she was running. They were surprised to see Mori Kogoro turning up. Not only was the eatery one of Kogoro's watering hole, they learned that he was present there the night of the murder. Upon questioning, it appears that Kogoro could provide alibi for the accused, who also turned up the same evening at the eatery. Kogoro's evidence was based on the time shown on his mobile, when he was woken up from his drunken nap by the proprietress to receive an incoming call. Conan however, noticed that Kogoro's mobile was always kept in his coat which was always hung on a rack when he patronised the eatery. He also noticed that it was the proprietress who brought the ringing phone to him when he was in a drunken stupor. Shortly, the prosecutor, Reiko Kujo, had a meeting with Kogoro in the eatery and Conan suspect Kujo must have perceived the same thing he did.

Conan went along and came across a matchbox in the suspects home, taken from the eatery. Reviewing the case notes, Kogoro realised what actually happened, but it took Conan's help to establish a convincing case during the court hearing to reveal the truth.
