Conan finds out that the man is Tatsuo Hayase, an artist who's been missing for a year. His wife, Kimie, is the only one who can identify the body but she proclaims it's not him. Conan proves that the murdered man is Tatsuo by the fingerprints he left behind when he came home after regaining his memories. Conan reveals that the murderer is Kimie Hayase. In the past she tried killing her husband to inherit his life insurance money then successfully did so again to prevent him from threatening her and revealing all to the police.

Anime

• The names of the characters and places in the Funimation Dub are:

• Tatsuo Hayase - Troy Haysum
• Kimie Hayase - Kimmy Haysum
• World Abstract Painting Exhibit - Art Expo

Trivia

Movie 2

• Kimie Hayase reappears in the introduction sequence from The Fourteenth Target.
• Shiro Konno's character design from Night Baron Murder Case is reused for the doctor in this episode.
• Takagi smokes in this episode in order to reveal that Kimie dislikes smokers, contradicting a later plot in Jolly Roger in the Deep Azure, where Takagi fakes that he is a smoker in order to get fingerprints from a suspect. The reason for this contradiction may be because this episode occurred well before Takagi was fully characterized and the storywriters decided to make Takagi a non-smoker later. It's not unlikely, however, that Takagi is or was merely an occasional smoker.
• The painting reappears in Suzuki ship and in Yokosuka Castle from The Last Wizard of the Century, and in Shigeru Kataoka's house from The Kidnapper's Disappearing Getaway Car, but without the castle. Open spoiler box to see images.
