Resolution

  Show spoilers »

The culprit is Yukiko Mori. First, she knew Kiyomi was leaving first, saw her off at the station, and established what time she boarded the train. She timed how long it would take for the body to loop back around to the station and return. The murder weapon is the headphones. When they boarded the train, Yukiko took too long to retrieve the headphones and yanked them so hard that they snapped. When Yukiko opens the CD player, she finds a thankful message wrritten by Kiyomi on the CD. She breaks down, confesses and reveals that she became enraged after Kiyomi stole her boyfriend.

Trivia

• According to the mini disc label, this episode's plot takes place August 22, 1999.
• The songs Yukiko has on her CDs are from Yoko Okino, Miho Komatsu and TWO-MIX.

Movie 10

• Shizuka Kawai reappears in The Private Eyes' Requiem as a thief's victim in Miracle Land. Her name is the same of a main protagonist in the manga and anime franchise Yu-Gi-Oh!.
• The use of MD Players would have been abnormal if the timeline of Detective Conan took place in the late 2010s or 2020s, since Sony has ceased development of MD devices, with the last of the players sold by March 2013.
