Plot

Conan hears Kir dial the boss's number

Vermouth arc

Conan first heard the boss's email address when Vermouth texted the boss after the showdown with her. He didn't recognize the tune at first although he thought it was familiar sounding and had a sad feeling to it.

Cellphone arc

Conan noticed that the first few notes sounded very close to the area code for Tottori prefecture. He guessed that it was a song starting with notes "B A G A". He discovered the song Nanatsu no Ko matched the sound of the key presses after asking Kyosuke Haga‎ what songs start with "B A G A".

Kir arc

He heard Kir dial the boss's number and discovered she was a member of the Black Organization. Later Eisuke Hondou, who knew the number by the tune because his father used to text the boss, heard someone in the hospital where Kir was being held dial it. Ran relayed this information to Conan who learned there was an undercover Organization spy among the patients looking for Kir.
