Ep. 192: Shinichi Returns to Confess Love Amidst Tatsumi Murder Investigation

192

Shinichi plans to confess his love to Ran at a restaurant where Taiji Tatsumi hosts a party with Satoru Ooba and Sakurako Tatsumi. Satoru isolates Taiji in an elevator, kills him with a gunshot to the head, and frames the act while presenting Sakurako with a gift. Shinichi leaves before the investigation starts and immediately identifies Satoru as the killer. Sakurako defends Satoru by noting the absence of gun residue on him and claims the weapon was found in the garbage. Shinichi questions Sakurako about her kiss with Satoru, using this information to deduce the specific method Satoru used to commit the murder without leaving evidence.
