393

A motorcyclist crashes near Mouri's detective agency, leaving a suitcase containing 300,000 yen and a ransom note. The note only reveals the victim's surname, but heart medicine found at the scene helps locate the family. Investigation reveals the motorcyclist had an accomplice. The son-in-law, frequently criticized by his father-in-law and losing his wife's trust, becomes a suspect. Conan provides the necessary medicine in time and deduces the son-in-law orchestrated the kidnapping. The suspect confesses, revealing he staged the event to force his father-in-law to be strict, ensuring he would inherit the family business. Neither relative held negative feelings toward him, making the motive a misguided attempt at preparation.
