Ep. 1090: The Culprit Who Disappeared Into the Sleeping Town

1090

Kogoro, Ran, and Conan investigate two murders in Haido City involving IT president Hideto Yuki and security guard Goro Nezu. Conan identifies bloody footprints leading away from the scene and notes that Goro’s dying words pointed to white clothing. Suspects include Hideto’s wife Keiko and secretary Kaoru Ichinose. While Keiko has a divorce motive, her footwear does not match the prints. Kaoru claims innocence, citing an alibi and a reversible vest. Conan uncovers a four-year-old secret involving a suicide by Sachi Shirai, whom Kaoru dated. He deduces Kaoru followed the real killer, mistaking him for the culprit, while the actual murderer used the vest’s white side to evade detection.
