Ep. 257: The Bizarre Heavenly Punishment and the Robbed Man's Alibi
Aired on November 12, 2001Filler

257
Following an earthquake, Conan and the detective boys witness a woman holding an injured man in the street. They summon an ambulance, and the victim survives to report that he was robbed of 200,000 yen ($2,000). Although the group identifies a suspect, the individual possesses a solid alibi, having been involved in committing a separate crime at the exact time of the attack. This conflicting timeline complicates the investigation into the theft, leaving the detectives to reconcile the evidence with the suspect's whereabouts during the incident.
