Resolution

  Show spoilers »

It turns out the culprit, Matasaburo Saika, was not trying to kill Ai and Mitsuhiko, but trying to save them from the wrath of Jubei the bear. She (the bear) had been stalking the kids because they had befriended one of the two cubs Jubei gave birth to that year, the other one had been killed by the murdered hunter in order to lure Jubei out in the open.

Animal Attack
	Location: Forests Victim: Tomoya Negoro, Genta Kojima, and Matasaburo Saika Culprit: Jubei Jubei attacks the group as she cannot find her cub.

Attempted Animal Hunting (Past)
	Location: Mountains Victim: Jubei Injury: Gunshot wound Culprit: Man A hunter shot Jubei since he thought she was going to eat Saika.

Jubei had saved Saika from freezing to death when he had broken both his legs hunting for Jubei, and the rescue team, mistaking Jubei's intentions and thinking she had wanted to eat him, had taken out her eye when saving him. Since then he had been trying to keep her safe, spreading lies about her being a ferocious beast so no one would approach her. But when the unnamed hunter killed the cub and used it as a part of a trap for Jubei, he resorted to more desperate measures, and as a result he accidentally shot the hunter dead, and then gave the dead cub a burial.

Ai's clue when telling Conan about the culprit was a set of mushrooms on a stick. They were mounted mimicking the way the suspects were carrying their rifles. But it had not been the poisonous mushroom out of the three buf the type Agasa had earlier called 'the culprit'.

Animal Killing
	Location: Forests Victim: Jubei's cub Cause of death: Gunshot wound Culprit: The hunter The hunter killed one of Jubei's cubs to lure her.

As soon as the children released the living bitty bear, Jubei stopped her rampage and disappeared into the woods with her other cub. Saika explained what happened, saying that he consider someone who killed a cub to lure it's mother to their death is a beast, and peacefully surrendered to the authorities.

Trivia

• This case is very similar to the Sankebetsu brown bear incident.
