Kip. 413: The Mystery of the Half-Completed Crime

413

Kogoro is invited by TV producer Ryoko Inoue to share some of his case stories. He meets scriptwriters Joji Yagami, Morio Kouda, and Akira Sakuma. During negotiations, Joji drops dead from poison laced in his coffee. After a thorough background check, Morio becomes the main suspect due to his hatred and numerous times to get him fired. Joji had been bullying Morio which pushes his motive further. Once the facts have been analyzed, Conan tranquilizes Kogoro and reveals that Morio did murder Joji. There was no method involved, because Morio indiscriminately chose at random and didn’t care which scriptwriter drank the poison. His motive wasn’t based on revenge for his bullying but because he wanted a better chance for fame. As Morio is arrested, Conan is upset how Morio killed someone to become prominent as he enjoyed the episodes he wrote. (Source: Wikipedia)
