"Haha, the great detective is useless now. An amateur girl solved the case first," Fujisawa Toshiaki scoffed at Mouri. Mouri was displeased by Fujisawa Toshiaki's words. "Hmph! She's just playing mind games!"

"No, she must have found some clue that we don't know," Conan denied Mouri's statement. Hattori continued Conan's words, replying, "Hmm, very likely." "Huh?" After speaking, the two looked at each other in surprise. Hattori was curious why his opinions aligned so well with Conan's.

"I remember something. Miss Ayako was a bit strange during the day. After lunch today, when I was going back to my room, I saw her. She saw me and frantically hid something like a piece of paper behind her back. I thought it was the Sherlock Holmes quiz from last night," Ran suddenly recalled.

"Quiz?" Conan and Hattori asked in unison.

"Could she be cheating?" Tsukawa Ikuo suspected. Mouri also said helplessly, "How can there be such a woman!"

Just then, Todo Kenhito returned from outside. Everyone rushed up to him and asked: "Hey! Who's the culprit?" "Did you secretly ask?" "Tell us quickly!!" Seeing Tsukawa and the others like that, Todo Kenhito was a little startled. "Ah, well... I did ask, but she said she couldn't tell even me, and just hid in the restroom."

"What a tease!" Fujisawa Toshiaki said with a displeased look. Hattori combined the information he got from Iwai Hitomi with Ran's words and thought, "It seems Miss Ayako knew from the start that the anti-theft camera was fake, so she..."

"Did Miss Ayako go to your room at noon?" Conan asked Todo Kenhito.

"No, I was writing quizzes in my room all day. No one came." Hearing Conan's question, Hattori glanced at Conan. "It's this brat again! Why do his thoughts align with mine on so many things!"

"Why hasn't Miss Ayako come back yet?" Ran looked at the clock on the wall, feeling something was amiss. "Indeed, it's been over twenty minutes," Fujisawa Toshiaki checked his watch.

"Could it be!?" Mouri led everyone to the restroom door, only to find Oki Ayako smoking at the entrance.

"You should tell us who the culprit is now, right?" Tsukawa Ikuo asked.

"Oh, that. I thought about it carefully in the restroom, and it seems I got it wrong. My apologies!" With that, Oki Ayako walked away alone.

"Honestly! She's just bluffing!" Mouri said, looking at her retreating back with annoyance. Conan and Hattori, filled with suspicion, returned to the hall and found that Oki Ayako was not there. "Huh? Where's Miss Ayako?"

"She went for a walk outside. Although we tried to stop her, she said there wouldn't be any more murders..." Ran replied to Conan. "The suspects are all in this house." "As long as we stay here, nothing will happen," everyone said one after another.

Bang! Suddenly, an explosion came from outside. Everyone jumped in fright. Mouri hurriedly asked, "What was that sound?" Todo Kenhito shouted, "It's from the garage!"

"He pinpointed the location of the explosion even faster than me. This guy's suspicion is huge." Yuu, who was running at the back, looked at Todo Kenhito, who was running at the front. When everyone ran to the garage, they found that it was already engulfed in raging fire.

"Could Miss Ayako be inside?" Ran thought of a possibility.

"Ayako!" Todo Kenhito was about to rush in but was pulled back by Mouri. "If you go in now, you'll just die!"

Fujisawa Toshiaki looked at the raging fire in the garage, muttering, "Please, put out the fire quickly, otherwise, that book... the book..."

"Book?" Conan and Hattori both turned their heads, looking at Fujisawa Toshiaki thoughtfully. After the fire was extinguished, everyone entered the garage to search for Oki Ayako. "Oh my!" When Fujisawa Toshiaki opened the car door, he was so frightened he sat on the ground, seeing a charred corpse lying on the back seat of the car.

"Ayako! Ayako!" Todo Kenhito cried, clutching the corpse. Mouri looked at the corpse and said, "From the body shape and clothing, it should indeed be Miss Ayako."

"Could it be that the culprit wanted to silence her?" Toda Maria said.

"But when the garage caught fire, we, the suspects, were all in the hall, right?" Iwai Hitomi asked suspiciously.

"No! There's one more person! If Kanaya isn't dead!" Tsukawa Ikuo voiced a terrifying conjecture.

"Impossible!! I'm absolutely sure that one in the car is Kanaya!" Yuu immediately rejected this ridiculous conjecture. 'No way, isn't that insulting me? How could I possibly be wrong about whether Kanaya is dead or not?'

"Then who did it?! Ayako was clearly murdered! And you're still talking nonsense!" Todo Kenhito yelled at Yuu. Yuu heard Todo Kenhito's words and revealed a dangerous smile. "Are you doubting me, idiot!"
