Case

Situation

Part 1

The Detective Boys go to the police station who are trying to figure out who robbed a nearby bank. The man who owns the bank phones his wife, then gives the phone to one of the officers. Suddenly, the woman screams and she is then found dead in her house with a wound from a knife. Conan thinks that these two cases are related - did the robbers kill the wife because she recognized one of them? He sees the man smiling at his wife's dead body.

Resolution

The killer is Kayo Masuo. Knowing his wife's daily routine, he set a knife hidden in a bookshelf and tied it to his wife's exercise bike. The string was wound around the pedal and would eventually pull the knife from the shelf, stabbing Kayo in the process. Once they arrived at the scene of the crime, Keizo instructed Takagi and Sato to check upstairs while he went to the living room where Kayo's body is to eliminate the evidence. To establish an alibi, Keizo called his wife from the police station and had her talk to Takagi.

The bank robbery was actually set up by Kayo, who was forced to set it up due to his wife's lavish lifestyle. The bank robbery would have gone smoothly had it not for Kayo being there during the robbery. After being taken hostage, Kayo recognized one of the robbers. Keizo eventually killed her out of fear that she would reveal the identity of the robber, who would in turn reveal Keizo as the mastermind behind it.
