A day before the opening of the Toto Line, a new line of the Tokyo Metropolitan Subway, governor Yuichiro Asakura receives a bomb threat.
The following day, while the Toto Line is formally opened,Conan Edogawa and the Detective Boys go on a trip with Professor Agasa and Agasa's car passes directly underneath the new subway tracks.
Conan, who heard about the bomb threat, spots explosives tied to the rails as the car passes them. He decides to act immediately, calling the police and using his bow-tie to change his voice to [Shinichi Kudo]]'s. With Conan's help, the police are able to divert the new trains away from the bombs and prevent casualties.

Investigating Asakura's background, Conan learns that the governor authorised construction of a dam in Kitanosawa, a town in Niigata prefecture. Kitanosawa was evacuated to make room for the dam, the citizens had to leave their homes and their houses were flooded by the new dam. Since Asakura has been forced to cancel an upcoming trip to Kitanosawa to celebrate the anniversary of the dam, Conan speculates the bomber could have ties to the former town and decides to continue his investigation in Kitanosawa.
Conan, the Detective Boys, Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri, and Sonoko Suzuki travel to Kitanosawa and have a fun day in the snow. They befriend a few former citizens, childhood friends Keisuke Yamao, Mizuki Tono, Fuyumi Tachihara, Tahehiko Muto and Shogo Hikawa. The friends were among the citizens that decided to relocate to the new village after Kitanosawa was flooded.
They also explain that they haven't seen each other for eight years because Yamao had to spend several years in prison for accidentally killing Mizuki's younger sister Natsuki in a hit-and-run. Fuyumi's son Toma was in a serious incident a day after Natsuki's death and has been in a coma ever since.

Conan intervenes and leads them to safety. Taking a route towards the dam, Conan explains
Keisuke Yamao is the culprit. Yamao robbed the jewelry store in a distant town and drove back to Kitanosawa. On the way, he ran over Natsuki, a scene which Touma witnessed. Touma is then kidnapped by Yamao and sees the diamonds, explaining why the diamond dust startled his memories. Touma escaped but fell down a cliff leading to his coma. Yamao then buries the jewels in a property in Kitanosawa and turns himself over to the authorities for Natsuki's death. Unexpectedly, the dam project forced the town of Kitanosawa underwater.
As a result, Yamao decides to bomb the dam to search old-Kitanosawa for the diamonds. In order to have enough time to perform the search, he had to cancel the Governor's trip and destroy the cell phone towers to prevent the outside world from learning of the dam's destruction.
