Ep. 349: Untersuchung der Krankenhausaufnahme des Besitzers und der Geheimnisse des verborgenen Dachbodens

349

The owner is taken to the hospital. Kogoro is requested to investigate the case. Even as Kogoro starts his wronog deductions, the kids continue investigating, and find that the road where the knife was leads to an end, meaning that the criminal is someone from the village or one of the tourists. The next day, the kids start searching for whatever the criminal was searching for in the attic. Ai observes that they can clearly see the place where the owner, Nagakura, was attacked last night, which means that even the owner could see who was in the attic. Conan rushes to the place and finds a lacquer tree there, which was the reason the owner fainted. They see the rude tourist, Kawaji, being surrounded by villagers and Ai tells them that Nagakura was part of a group that was for registering the village as a World Heritage (but there was also another group against it). Kawaji is a World Heritage inspector who came to determine whether the village should be a World Heritage, but he accepted bribes from various villages and also asked some from Nagakura. Kawaji is arrested as a suspect since his house was right where Nagakura had passed out. The kids come to know from the inspector that the Nagakura and the Otozawa's houses were exchanged, and that their places were exchanged. Conan searches the attic of the abandoned house and finds the stolen jewels. That night, the kids then hide in the attic and wait for the criminal. The criminal turns out to be Sakaki, the missing jewel appriser. He had forced Eiji, who was in debt, to help him in the robbery and had also killed the guard and later Eiji, to hide his own crime.
