第83話: リチャードは病院で殺人を目撃し、ヤニング医師は薬物の幻覚だと主張する

83

While in a hospital for a knee injury, Richard witnesses a murder. Dr. Charles Yanning, Richard's doctor, dismisses his claims as hallucinations from his medication. On the fourth incident, Dr. Bill Hindman, another doctor, has been stabbed to death, supposedly by Richard. Conan discovers that Richard fell prey to a light trick and Dr. Yanning is believed to be the killer, but he has the alibi of talking to Nurse Nolan in another room at the time of the murder. Conan, after finding various inconsistencies in Yanning's story, tranquilizes Richard and reveals that Dr. Yanning used a CPR dummy and light trick to make Richard believe he was going insane. He killed Bill, used his corpse to recreate the murder on the fourth time, bashed Richard on the head and closed his hand around the knife, then used his answering machine to hold a conversation with Nurse Nolan as he was going back to his office. As evidence, Dr. Yanning‘s fingerprints were not on his cup, but Nolan's was, as opposed to him saying he was in his office drinking coffee. Dr. Yanning confesses saying Bill was blackmailing him to drop out of the running for head surgeon and is arrested. (Source: Wikipedia)
