第108話: コンランはウォルターがセリア・コーラーを殺害したと推測し、花の下にある彼女の遺体を見つける

108

Matthew happily explains that he buried the stolen jewels in Walter's yard, forcing the police to excavate it. Though they find no body, Conan is positive that Walter murdered Celia Kohler just by the evil smirk on his face. The Junior Detective League asks a witness, Sean Moss, who heard digging noises from Walter's yard on the day Celia went missing. Sean made a mistake and the noise was actually coming from the construction site next door. Conan, after summoning everyone back to Walter's house, lays down his theory and points out the body is under a growing flower which sprouted from the victim received as a gift on the day she went missing. Walter admits defeat and confesses, explaining that Celia's death was accidental; as he went back to his room after learning he lost money due to an error on Celia's part, Celia tried to stop him but Walter yanked his hand back, causing her to lose balance and fall to her death. Her body is unearthed and Matthew, only given probation for his robbery case, heads back home to give Celia a proper burial. (Source: Wikipedia)
