74

A death threat is given to famous actor Harnison Noble, who plays Jinnai, the titular character in a horror movie franchise. Richard accepts the case and meets Vivica Jasmine, Murisa Noble, and Olson Allibaster. While everyone is staking a park with the media, Jinnai makes an eerie appearance and run to Harnison's cond where a gunshot is heard and a silhouette is seen and find Harnison shot to death. Vivica is shot at by the killer during the investigation. After finding the stereo on repeat, unrolled vinyl tape on the floor, and an interesting fax message, Conan tranquilizes Richard then reveals Vivica Jasmine to be the killer, who was clever enough to set up a false outline of a person, and use a silenced gunshot to kill him while using a pre-set gunshot recording to make it seem like he was killed when the recording sounded, instead of later. However, she made two mistakes: one, the record was set on a repeat track, causing her to lie that the killer had passed her to escape the building; two, Harnison's blood stained a faxed page that arrived earlier than when he was supposedly killed. Vivica confesses that Harnison revealed, during his usual drunken state, that he sabotaged the set her love was on while doing a stunt for one of the Jinnai movies, leading to his death.
