Case
Situation
Conan, Kogoro, Ran, and the Detective Boys are invited to meet Kogoro's new client in a hotel next to "Miracle Land", a newly opened theme park. A man in a suit greets them in front of the hotel and leads them to a meeting room on the top floor, telling them to have a seat while he gets something for them. When he comes back he hands everyone an ID watch that allows them a day's free access to all attractions in Miracle Land as well as free food and drinks.
Ran and the children decide to go and have fun in the park while Kogoro is busy. Ran wants Conan to come with them, but their host tells them that Conan also has to stay behind. The children leave and their host pulls back curtains in the room and switches a TV screen on, showing their client, a man who's sitting in front of several screens. He wears a bathrobe and his face is half hidden in the darkness. The client explains that he wants Kogoro and Conan to help him solve a mystery. To make sure they comply, he further explains that the ID watches he gave to everyone are filled with explosives, can't be taken off and will explode if someone finds the wrong answer to the mystery. The watches also have GPS systems that allow the client to track everyone's exact locations. If they are tampered with, Ran or the children leave the park or Conan or Kogoro go to the police, the client will know and will let the watches explode. The watches will be switched on once Ran and the children enter the park.
Hostage Situation

|
Conan tries to contact Ai with their detective badges to warn her not to get into the park, but they have already passed the entrance. Instead, Conan urges Ai not to let anyone leave the park or go on the Super Snake roller coaster because this leaves the boundaries of the park for a while.
The client explains that he already hired four detectives to work on the case. Two have given up, one is working and the last one has failed. He shows them a man locked in a room, a detective named Ryu who's familiar to Kogoro and also wears an ID watch. The client tells Ryu his deductions were wrong and then activates the explosives in the watch. Ryu dies before Conan's and Kogoro's eyes.

The client's assistant hands Conan and Kogoro a phone that can only receive calls. The first and only clue they get from the client is "TAKA 3-8". Conan deduces that they are supposed to go to part 3 of Takashima and find a house in the eighth block, which turns out to be an abandoned hotel. In a locker in the hotel basement, they find a licensed gun and woolen ski masks, thinking this might be equipment used in a robbery.
The moment they leave the hotel again, police officers try to arrest Conan and Kogoro, thinking they are accomplices of Kaitou Kid, who has appeared near the hotel recently. One of the officers tells Kogoro that they are investigating two cases that happened on April 4th. A truck delivering money to a bank was robbed and this abandoned hotel was used as the base of the robbers. On the same day, Kid broke into a nearby office building and stole a few jewels.
Since none of the police officers recognise Kogoro, they take him and Conan to the nearest police station to interrogate him. In the middle of the painful debate, the client suddenly calls and Conan hurries to the bathroom to answer it. The client calls Conan Shinichi, so Conan uses his voice-changing bow tie to explain that they didn't go to the police voluntarily and tells the client about their findings. The client gives him a new hint "look for the café terrace at night." Conan hurries out of the police station and tries to figure out where to go.
Heiji Hattori suddenly turns up and explains that he is also working on the same case and that the client has sent Kazuha to Miracle Land with an ID on. Kogoro catches up with Conan and Heiji and Inspector Megure wants to know what's going on. Kogoro starts to explain but realises the client is watching them. The client sets off a bomb as a warning. Kogoro shoves Megure aside and leaves with Heiji and Conan. Shiratori asks Megure why he is okay with this behaviour from Kogoro. Megure shows him a note from Kogoro that says "Ran and the children are in danger, don't let anyone leave Miracle Land".

Kogoro decides to go investigate on his own.
Heiji says he also got "The Café Terrace At Night" as hint, but the client also told him to look for "YOU CRY". They deduce that "The Café Terrace at Night" refers to a famous painting by Vincent Van Gogh on which a horse-drawncarriage appears in front of a café terrace lit by lamps in the evening and that this is a clue to "Carriage Way", where the transporter was robbed on April 4. YOU is short for Yokohama Ocean University, so that is where Heiji and Conan go next. CRY has to refer to a club at the university, Heiji thinks, but they can't find the right one when they're interrupted by Saguru Hakuba, a famous teenage detective from England who spends most of his time trying to catch Kaito Kid. Saguru has also got an ID watch and decides to team up with Conan and Heiji, telling them he thinks CRY refers to the Crime Research Club of Yokohama University, so it is there they continue their investigation.
In the club rooms, some members, thinking Heiji and Saguru are interested in the club because they want to attend Yokohama University, show them around. Conan notices that among the pictures of former club presidents, the third president seems to be missing and asks for the reason. The members took the picture of the third president, Suehiko Ito, down, because he was involved in the murder of one of his classmates, Masaharu Nishio. The three detectives have lunch and Heji calls Inspector Otaki in Osaka for more information on Ito. Saguru says he has learned from his father that Ito is wanted by the police in connection with the truck robbery on April 4.
At the same time, Kogoro calls Eri and asks her if she has further information about that same case.
Conan, Heiji and Saguru visit Nishio's office where he was killed. They learn that Reiko Shimizu, who was employed at the same office and also a member of the Crime Research Club, committed suicide after the police questioned her about Nishio's murder.
The client calls and confirms that Nishio's murder is the case he wants them to solve.

Conan wakes up in Professor Agasa's car with Heiji. Heiji tells Conan that Saguru called Agasa to pick Conan up, but when Agasa arrived, Saguru was gone and that they're now on the way back to the hotel as the time limit is almost up. Otaki has also been in touch and Heiji updates Conan about the events following the robbery on April 4:
There were traces of mascara on the scope of the sniper rifle used to kill Nishio. It was found to be of the same brand Reiko wore on a regular basis but she never said anything during the police questioning.
On May 15, two fishermen saw Reiko apparently jumping off a cliff, but her body was never found. Eight days later, Ito, who was grievously injured, escaped from hospital.
Furthermore, Kaito Kid stole jewels from an art collection on April 4 and his escape route crossed the route the robbers took after they attacked the delivery truck. Kid saw the faces of the robbers and they started shooting at him, but missed. Since then, Kid's life has been in danger whenever he has tried to steal something.
Professor Agasa says Kogoro has already made it back to the hotel and wants to present his deductions to their client, so Conan and Heiji hurry up there to make sure Kogoro doesn't screw everything up.
Kaito Kid has gone back to the art collection to tell the owner that he has had enough of being in mortal danger whenever he wants to commit a heist. He also says he knows why the owner is still after him even after Kaito returned the jewel to him - Kaito saw him among the robbers, as well as his associate who is currently also in the room, hiding behind a curtain. He calls the police to come and arrest the owner of the collection, releasing tranquilizing gas to make sure he can't escape. His associate, however, does.
People
Resolution
Kogoro is already giving his report to the client in the hotel when Heiji knocks him out after Conan misses and hits the worker with the tranquilizer shot. They discover the entrance to the hotel room from which the client has been monitoring them.
Entering the room reveals a sophisticated computer setup, as the client uses it and a motorized wheelchair to compensate for a previous car accident that left him blind and partially paralyzed. Heiji and Conan explain that the client, Nishio, and Reiko were staging the robbery of an armored car. The robbery went wrong when Nishio killed a guard and was seen escaping by Kaitou Kid, so Nishio was murdered in order make sure the police didn't find out about the other two. However, Nishio was already dead before the client shot him and Reiko Shimizu was the true killer. When the client tried to escape the city after his "crime", his car turned out to have been sabotaged in an attempt to kill him, and created the accident that gave him his current injuries.

The client then is revealed to be Suehiko Itoh. Reiko appears at that moment and confirms the deduction. She tried to kill them to prevent the truth from coming out. Since Conan has one injured leg, Heiji throws a spear up at the ceiling and Conan jumps, swings on the spear, turns and knocks Reiko out using his soccer ball.
Conan then tries to deactivate the IDs because a timed explosion is nearing the end of its countdown. However, the computer won't give him access to shut the IDs down or to change the timer, and Reiko destroyed part of the computer earlier while trying to shoot them. Conan resets the whole system and links it up with the client's separate laptop to try to input commands.
Time is ticking down and Conan has to figure out the password to the question to be able to deactivate it. The hint question to the password is, "The name of the person I love the most". They enter Reiko and it's incorrect and if they enter in the wrong password again it will shut down. Conan concludes that Itoh is narcissistic enough that the answer is actually Itoh's name, which turns out to be correct. Conan resets the timer on the wristbands at the very last second and then release the wristbands. Although he could not turn off the area restriction, they can be removed to end the danger.
Chiba collects almost everyone's wristbands, and the Super Snake is re-opened for the kids to ride before they leave the park. The children and teenagers all ride on the roller coaster. However, Heiji realizes that Genta still has his ID wristwatch on—Sonoko lost her ID early in the day but later found it in her bag, which Chiba hadn't known and counted hers as Genta's. Haibara removes the ID but because of the ride suddenly turning it flies to Heiji's hands. Just then, the roller coaster enters a loop, causing the ID to fly to the empty seat behind Conan.
Conan attempts to dislodge his restraints to get at it, even though the roller coaster is heading into a loop and without the safety restraint he'll likely fall to his death. Just before he can break the restraints, Kaitou Kid flies in on his hang glider and grabs the ID, throwing it safely away from the roller coaster to go off like a firework.
Conan reveals to Heiji that Kid knew what was going on because he was disguised as Saguru (using Sonoko's "lost" ID) and apparently waited after returning the wristband to make sure things turned out all right. Additionally, Itoh knows Conan as Shinichi thanks to the collected fingerprint when Conan sit on the armchair at the initial meeting. Additionally, the death of the detective Ryu turned out to have been staged, as he was paid to pretend to die. Kogoro grumbles in disgust about Ryu having done something so stupid just for money, only to receive a phone call asking him to star in a commercial for sleeping pills — and he refuses only until a great sum of money is mentioned.
Hints that Hakuba was Kaitou Kid
- Sonoko's ordinary park pass disappears at the beginning. Later, yellow paint spills on Hakuba when he, Conan, and Heiji are attacked by thugs on motorbikes. At the end of the case after Hakuba has disappeared, Sonoko finds the pass again and it has spots of yellow paint on it.
- In several scenes where Hakuba, Conan, and Heiji are standing together during a call from Itoh (E.g. the mystery club room and office crime scene), the scene shifts to Itoh's computer room. Only two dots representing Conan and Heiji are on the GPS location monitor, meaning that Hakuba's pass is an ordinary one and he lied about being part of the deduction contest.
- When communicating with Heiji and Conan, Itoh acknowledges them by name multiple times and keeps saying things like he's impressed that the "two" of them made it so far even though Hakuba was still with them at that point. He did not mention Hakuba at all because he never even knew he was there because he was not part of the contest and his ID was an ordinary one.
- Before Itoh began explaining the rules of his "game" he mentioned that he brought four detectives there before Kogoro and Conan. One of them, Ryu, failed. He pretended to die and also mentioned the names of the two detectives who "gave up" and was presumably killed (which also turned out to be false). That left the one detective that according to Itoh was still investigating. Conan runs into Hattori later who is revealed to be the fourth detective. The fact that Kazuha is there and has an ID as well affirms the fact that he is really part of the game. And Itoh had no reason to not mention Hakuba if he brought him there.
- Hakuba pickpockets Heiji's cellphone without the Osakan detective noticing just before the thugs attack.
- When the thugs on motorbikes are chasing Conan, one of them is ambushed from above. The shadow of the ambusher is the triangle shape of Kaitou Kids's glider. Hakuba himself was not shown at that time.
- Hakuba says to Conan "I still lose to you, elementary school detective" and seems to imply they have met (and competed) several times - despite that not being the case. In the movies' canon Hakuba and Conan have met only once and during that time they worked together.
