Chapter Summaries

Kamijo Satoshi tried to murder Ebara Tokio while Jiang Xia, Conan, and Amuro Tooru were drugged, but Conan witnessed the killing and exposed him. After Kamijo was arrested, Conan noticed a pinhole on Amuro Tooru’s wrist and wondered about the “little boy” Amuro mentioned.

• Jiang Xia returned to his body and fell asleep on the sofa while Kamijo Satoshi assumed the sleeping pills had kept him from noticing the murder plan.

• Conan noticed a pinhole on Amuro Tooru’s wrist but kept quiet about it.

After Kamijo Satoshi’s arrest, Amuro Tooru asked Public Security to investigate the mysterious child who had stabbed him, then left the child out of his organization report.

Jiang Xia hitched a ride with Amuro Tooru back toward Tokyo, using the journey to rest while Haibara Ai watched Amuro warily. When the car got a flat tire near a forest villa, Jiang Xia secretly sabotaged the spare so he could find an excuse to investigate the house.

• The center-parted man prepared to attack, but the goateed man stopped him and suggested they try the clue together after nightfall.

Jiang Xia triggered the Villa’s cuckoo-clock mechanism with a flashlight and by turning its hands forward, revealing a jewel-encrusted watch. He identified it as stolen loot from the Goblin Bandit Group, leaving the two bandits alarmed.

• Jiang Xia proposed testing the Villa’s mechanism immediately and used blackout curtains and a flashlight to imitate nighttime conditions.
• Jiang Xia asked Haibara Ai to hold the flashlight while he turned the cuckoo clock’s minute hand forward.

• Conan learned that Yoshida Ayumi was still missing and remembered a newspaper report about a serial kidnapping and Murder Case targeting young girls, then rushed out of Beika Park to search for her.

• The Mermaid confirmed to Jiang Xia that a little girl wearing a headband was in the trunk, and Jiang Xia realized it was likely Yoshida Ayumi.
