• Conclusion

He tranquilizes Kogoro to reveal that Masao Noda, the man who slept in the chair beside him before the murder. Conan reveals that Masao Noda had murdered Ebihara beforehand and explains Ebihara was the man in the chair when Kogoro entered the shop. Noda, disguised as Ebihara, was the one who invited Kogoro to the barber shop and covered his face with a towel. Noda then switched places with Ebihara and used an aimed dart to knock down some pottery to catch Kogoro's attention. As evidence, Conan reveals that Noda should have the same shirt as Ebihara. Noda confesses and reveals that Ebihara sold him to loan sharks.

Trivia

• During the scene where Masao Noda fights Takagi and falls down, the back of Masao's shirt is incorrectly spelled. It says "darts hears" instead of "darts hearts".
