Here is the layout of the train and where everyone was supposed to be.
Somehow in the course of things, Agasa and Kogoro somehow wound up in cars that were next to each other rather than with one in between them. This means that someone boarded the wrong room, or while the room was vacant, a culprit moved their stuff to an adjacent car. It is unclear who moved. The
Situation 1 is that after the kids were lured from the room by the letter, Agasa was lured out as well afterwards and everything was moved from room 6D to room 7D. Agasa returned, and thought 7D was really 6D. Conan misjudged the rooms and went to Kogoro's 8B by accident, and then saw Agasa coming out of 7D and became confused.
Situation 2 is that Kogoro and entourage were tricked into boarding 7B instead of 8B. Kogoro, Sonoko, Ran, and Sera were lured out of the room, leaving it empty. The victim and a culprit came into the room before Conan and the detective boys arrived, and the shooting and chase ensued. Ran, Sera, and Sonoko then returned to their room. Conan then barged in and was mistakenly told he was in 8B.
Scar Akai was also seen leaving from a room D in a car that was lower in number than 8 in the case of situation 1 or 7 in the case of situation 2. He was heading towards the front of the train.
