Victim:	Gozo, Tatsuo, and Ichiro Hatamoto
Suspects:	Takeshi Zaiki
	Thanks to Kogoro, he overslept and made Ran and Conan miss their boat while they were on vacation. Luckily, the island happen to be where the Hatamoto family have their weddings, and when their were just leaving the island, the passengers of a nearby boat noticed them and picked them up. However, trouble strikes when Gozo Hatamoto is found murdered. Takeshi Zaiki who just married Natsue Hatamoto is the prime suspect since his flower was found at the crime scene and Gozo was the reason that his father committed suicide. He is then locked in the storeroom. Later, Tatsuo Hatamoto is found murdered too and the storeroom door is unlocked, making it seem that Takeshi have escaped. To make matters even worse, a blackout occurs and Ichiro Hatamoto is stabbed in the leg.
