Part 1
Takagi and Sato are on a date at Tropical Land. Meanwhile, Shiratori, along with several other officers, are at the park in a surveillance van investigating a rumored drug deal involving a dealer in hiding named Asakichi Yakura. Shiratori also plans to intentionally interfere with Takagi's date. Shiratori has one of the officers bring the Detective Boys to the park and put them in Takagi and Sato's care. Takagi plans to present Sato with a ring inside his green backpack and discovers a bag of heroin inside. He realizes that he picked up the wrong backpack during the roller coaster ride. They return to the ride and learn from the attendant that no one returned asking for the backpack. Conan discerns the bag's owner was delivering the drugs without knowing what was inside, causing Sato to suspect Yakura's involvement. The backpack's strap reveals that the owner wore it on his left shoulder, suggesting he is left handed. They proceed to a photo-booth to examine the passengers who were with them on the roller coaster. Meanwhile, the officers misunderstand Sato's conversation, believing Kekkon (血痕?, lit. Bloodstain) to mean Kekkon (結婚?, lit. Marriage) and Heroin to mean Hirōen (披露宴?, lit. Reception) which causes them to believe that Takagi proposed. This allures them to seek out Takagi's backpack with the ring. At the photo booth, the four suspects are a golfer, a baseball player, soccer player, and swimmer. The golfer's writing reveals him to be left handed due to the ink smearing to the right.
Part 2
They confront the golfer and discover he is not the owner of the backpack.

Resolution
Conan investigates the backpack's contents and upon sniffing oil from a rag, reveals the owner to be the baseball player. Conan explains that out of the other three athletes, the baseball player uses the oil for his baseball glove. They then search for the baseball player and upon finding him, follow him to the aquatic show. When Sato discovers the baseball player is meeting with Yakura, she attempts to apprehend him. Yakura manages to escape Sato's grip and flees towards the ferris wheel. The fireworks and ferris wheel cause Sato to remember a traumatic moment, halting her to a standstill. Conan manages to knock Yakura into the ocean. Takagi's backpack falls in as well, meaning that it and the ring are lost forever. The police apprehend Yakura and, satisfied with Takagi's loss, leave. Takagi comforts Sato and promises her that he will not leave her.
Trivia
- The stakeout police van used by the detectives spying on Sato and Takagi is a 2003 Chevrolet Express. It appears that the stickers on it show a parody of Tom and Jerry, and had the license plate of 23-26.
- In Parade of Malice and Saint, it was revealed that talk was going around the precinct about Miwako Sato's upcoming date with Wataru Takagi at the New Tropical Marine Land. In fact, Shiratori notified Sato that the other police officers actually interrogated Takagi, and are planning a stake-out to spy on their date, and notified Yumi that he is the overseeing director of the stake out.
- That date had been postponed due to various things however this case covers Takagi and Sato's date at Tropical Marine Land, and it is (INDEED) heavily staked out by the Lovestruck Tokyo Police Force, and Shiratori is definitely the overseeing director of this stake out.
- This is the first case with two different people with the Takagi surname: Detective Wataru Takagi and Noboru Takagi, although it is hard to know if they spell their surname with the same Kanji or different Kanji.
- This is the first, if not the only case, that Detective Takagi narrowly missed being hit by the soccer ball that Conan just kicked at the culprit, and may have been hit, if he did not manage to see some extremely fast-paced glowing thing just out of the corner of his eye from behind him, although he probably may not be aware that Conan kicked it, after all, he did have other things on his mind at the time. A quick dodge for one thing.
