Yumi drives by Takagi who had gotten off of work early for a one night trip. She asks Takagi is he is going on a date with Miwako, something which Takagi forcefully denies: "No, it's not a date!" Back at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters, Yumi asks Sato is she knows where Takagi is going. All they can deduce is that it might have something to do with a report Takagi met with Megure about earlier. Sato wonders if Takagi has forgotten the anniversary of his mentor Date's death.

At the airport, Takagi opens his notebook. It's marked with "Greet Parents" and contains a ring. Takagi breaks into tears, no longer confident in his ability to make Sato happy.
The next day, as the Detective Boys approach the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters where they were scheduled to for a crime prevention project, a strange old man asks them if they are the acquaintances of Wataru Takagi. He handed them a gift which was to be passed on to Sato and opened quickly. As the man leaves, Conan catches up with the Detective Boys. As Conan asks the Detective Boys about the man, Amuro appears! Amuro tells the four children he was called back in for questioning so the police could decide whether he'd gone too far during the Detectives' Nocturne case. As he walks away, Amuro mentions that he had another reason for coming here, but that reason has already disappeared.
Meanwhile in police headquarters, Sato continues to collect clues from the other officers about where Takagi had left for. Sato is shocked to hear from Chiba that he saw Takagi crying over a photo booth sticker of a woman in his notebook. When Chiba asked if it was of Sato, Takagi angrily denied it was and that he would explain why himself to Sato later. Before Sato can question further, she receives a call from Conan to handover the gift from Takagi.
In the hall, the Detective Boys gave the present to Sato. It turns out to be a tablet PC displaying a live feed of Takagi bound up with rope and tape while asleep. The feed cycles through several camera angles, revealing Takagi's body is on a wooden plank with a sheet above a deep pit in a partially constructed tower. As Sato and the Detective Boys watch in horror, Takagi regains consciousness.

Although Shiratori felt that the Anti-Cybercrime Division can find the footage's location, it will take a long time. He suggested taking the tablet apart and charged directly from inside in order to retrieve the data, to which Conan denied as it was too risky. Superintendent Matsumoto ordered Megure to contact Haneda Airport on whether Takagi was on any passengers list last night, Shiratori to check his computer information on his likely whereabouts, Chiba to watch the tablet's video, Sato to question the Detective Boys who're waiting in another room and every police detective to investigate everyone connected with Takagi's prior investigations. Sato vowed to save Takagi.
The detective boys recounted their encounter with the man. The man knew Takagi by his full name, yet only knew Sato as Takagi's detective girlfriend. Chiba came to report to Sato, who rushed back and to her horror saw Takagi almost falling off the board. Suddenly, his police notebook came out of his chest pocket. He seemed to know what he was doing.
Superintendent Matsumoto was wondering about Takagi's clueless disappearance when a police detective suddenly remembered seeing Takagi coming out of the Record Office last week while crying. Matsumoto ordered them to search through the records.
While Conan and Sato are taking a walk through the hall, Conan learnt that the records that Takagi looked at that day were 3 cases of women who committed suicide by hanging themselves about a year ago. They all had no signs of foul play, so they were out of the jurisdiction.

The fraudster was caught but the charge wasn't fraud, but murder. He'd been shouldering quite large debts, and having trouble with a loan shark. He went and stabbed someone. Sato thinks Date caught him. Of course, Conan never met Date. Straight after catching the fraudster, Date died in a traffic accident.
He'd dropped his notebook, and was hit by a driver who'd fallen asleep at that wheel, according to Takagi. They were both on a night stakeout, and Date was trying to show Takagi something in his notebook when he got hit. The black notebook Takagi has was inherited from Date. Date was Takagi's mentor and were known as the "Wataru Brothers". Date's name is Wataru Date. His name was Wataru, just like Takagi's.
Meanwhile at night, Takagi is still breathing and is still lying in prone position on the wooden board.

The culprit was Ryuusaku Fuemoto, who was also a teacher at the school the suicide victim, Natalie Fuemoto was in. She was Date's boyfriend and the culprit assumed that Takagi was Date as they had the same surname. Thinking that he cheated on Natalie, he kidnapped Takagi. However, he committed suicide upon the police's arrival before he could reveal Takagi's location.
