Part 1
Dr. Agasa takes the Detective Boys with him to an onsen (warm spring) to fix a product the propietor purchased from him. At the onsen, the kids are introduced to four cast members filming a drama about a hitman. Since the bath is crowded, the kids decide to bathe in the early morning. As they head to the bath, Ai and Ayumi discover the Ganji Tetsuyama, the scriptwriter, inside the bath's women section, dead.
The police arrive and conclude that Tetsuyama slipped on a bar of soap and hit his head on the rocks. Conan reveals it was a murder, and points out that water on the victim's body reveals that the culprit washed something off and deduces it to be blood. The police assume the culprit waited at the veranda for the victim before committing the murder and begin searching for people entering the sauna without alibis; the suspects are the three other cast members.
Part 2
As the police continue their investigation, they discover a plastic tea bottle filled with water in the dressing room, match cinders floating on the water, and Tetsuyama's silver-gemed ring. It is also revealed that all the suspects have been seen in the hotel after the sauna was closed disproving their previous theory.
