200

Eri continues to pretend Kogoro is the killer but only to fool real guilty party. Norifumi enters a room he believed belonged to Ritsuko, but it is revealed to be a trap set by Conan and Eri who proceed to name him as Ritsuko's real killer. The "hayashi 2" memo meant Norifumi was unaware that Ritsuko had a meeting with a lawyer named Hayashi at 2 o'clock; he mistook it as hayashi rice for 2. The "pay later" note and "do not disturb" sign on the door was to prevent anyone walking by from ringing the door bell, possibly waking the drunk Kogoro up from his sleep. Norifumi strangled Ritsuko to death with the phone card, left Kogoro's phone near the door to frame him, and tampered with the chain lock; he broke it in advance then retied it with thread. Norifumi tackled through the door, thus breaking the chain and the thread. He was intending to make it look like a suicide but was forced to rethink a strategy once he found Kogoro in her bed. Norifumi confesses stating Ritsuko was torturing the people his home village and was furthered to murder once he discovered Ritsuko's plan to fabricate an affair with Kogoro, a scandal that would ruin Eri's career. Later, Kogoro tries to ask Eri to return home with him, since it has been a year after their divorce. Eri pretends not to hear and later at home, listens again to the recording of Mouri's plead for her return. (Source: Wikipedia)
