Case

Situation

Part 1

Sonoko tricks Ran into attending a cooking class by famous French chef Michi Uemori, and in order to go she invites her father and Conan. When the group arrives, they met several other people: Uemori's assistant, Yuko Komiyama, Michi's daughter-in-law Kaoru, and the cooking students Kazue Yashiro and Hiroaki Nishitani. Finally, the cooking class teacher Michi Uemori shows up. Conan, Ran, and Kogoro learn everyone seems to have something against the instructor, who is also a very unpleasant person. At some point the lights go out, then Uemori gets stabbed in the back and her lung is punctured, causing her to die. Now Conan and Kogoro have to decipher four suspects's agendas against her, but can they find the killer?

Resolution

  Show spoilers »

Everyone had HUGE reasons to be angry at Michi Uemori, since she crapped on each one big time. Mrs. Yashiro, because 30 years ago Uemori stole her then-boyfriend and married him without any regards to their long-time friendship; Kaoru, because Uemori's son Tatsuhiko was an abusive husband (in fact, her eyepatch covered a black eye he just gave her during a fight) and Uemori kept backing him up; Yuko, because Uemori stole all of her original recipes to make them pass as her own in her next cooking book; Nishitani, because Uemori refused to sponsor him and favored someone else, thus seriously damaging his dream to open his own restaurant. The killer was actually Hiroaki Nishitani, but not for her lack of support, but because he was in love with Yuko and wanted to avenge how Uemori ruined the career of the girl he liked. The killing weapon was a very thin sewing needle, which Nishitani hid in his fountain pen. When the trick to turn the lights on worked, he took it out and swiftly pierced Uemori's lung with it, knowing that due to her respiratory problems she would soon die. To not harm his fingers, he used a ring to push the needle further, and then took it out pulling the string tied to it; this was easily seen when it turned out Nishitani was the only person among the suspects wearing a ring in his fingers.

Anime

• The names of the characters in the Funimation Dub are:

• Yuko Komiyama - Becca Kinsey
• Kazue Yashiro - Katherine Sinclair
• Kaoru Uemori - Coral Laraway
• Hiroaki Nishitani - Percy Nicholson
• Michi Uemori - Misty Laraway

Trivia

• During the resolution, Conan actually makes a mistake that no one notices. When he's going through the process of how Nishitani is the killer, speaking with his bow-tie, he mentioned how Nishitani mistook Ran for Yuuko in the corridor when she went to the toilet but Kogoro stayed in the kitchen. There was no way for him to know/remember something he did not witness and so clearly the only other person who knew that was little Conan.
