Plot
Negotiation Chapter
Ran tells Conan that Akai is an FBI agent causing Conan to wonder what the FBI are doing in Japan. Conan heads to Agasa to analyze the data from Itakara's disk and learn that the Black Organization were going to Itakara's cottage to retrieve the program he was working on. Conan and Agasa head to Itakara's cottage in an attempt to intercept the email the email the Black Organization would send in order to trace them. However, the email was programmed to be deleted if the correct password was not typed and subsequently causes the Black Organization members to believe Itakara is in the cottage. Vodka phones the house and believing Itakara is in the cottage, to pick up the phone.
Pursuit Chapter
Conan uses his voice changing bow tie to impersonate Itakara and is able to learn of the location and time of their planned meeting. As Conan and Agasa head to the disclosed location, a subway construction site in Gunma, their car breaks down. Luckily they are able to hitch hike with a man and woman. Conan notices that the man is unfamiliar with the car due to the steering wheel being in the left side instead of the usual right side as European cars; This causes him to begin suspecting the man and women to be hiding something. While passing a police check point, they learn that the jewelry robbers had abandoned their car in that area and may be near by.
Desperation Chapter
Once arriving at their destination point, Conan reveals that the two people are the jewelry robber. Conan reveals that they hijacked a car as evidenced by the man's inability to handle the foreign car and how coins were found in the ashtray yet the man is a smoker. Conan apprehends the two culprits and proceeds to the subway. Once there Conan places the CD containing the program the Black Organization wants and places it in a coin locker with a sign on it. Vodka arrives and takes the CD but is stopped by Gin. Gin reveals that there is tape on the CD which means that someone was trying to get his fingerprint. Gin investigates the case and finds a tracker device. He places his hand on the case to find out its warm meaning the one who set up the disk is nearby. Conan manages to hide in a coin locker and passes out due to the lack of oxygen; He is found by Haibara the next day.

Trivia
- In this encounter, Conan only manages to figure out a hint that the organization may be trying to "raise the dead". This can be assumed from the files he reads in Episode 309.
