Episode 1034: Taiko Meijin's Shogi Board (Brilliant Move)

Scenario: Conan and Yumi visit an apartment where Hideyoshi is holding a Shogi study group, and find one of the participants, Yasuaki Genda, murdered there. A Shogi board with two legs cut off was found next to him. The room was unlocked, and it was thought that someone had broken in while the other participants, Mizuna Katsumata, Sachiko Uryu, and Kosuke Hishinuma, were out shopping, or that one of the three had sneaked back in and committed the crime. However, the three were able to claim that they had bought the items just a few minutes ago. The police began to consider the possibility of a series of murders, since a shogi board with one of its legs cut off was left at the scene of the recent case where the missing player, Kimiharu Nishikido, was found dead.

Sato and Takagi starts questioning the others, suspecting that they might pretend to buy food and kill Genda. Hishinuma, who bought cups of coffee, said that the water heater is broken, and the stove is not hot. Mina bought freshly baked bread, and there is no microwave, so it is impossible to reheat the bread. Shoko bought some ice cream, and they had checked the freezer to make sure there is no ice cream before go to buy it. They also meet each other before heading to the apartment and they didn't bring any food beforehand.

Sato deduces that the murder might be the work of an outsider, and a serial murder. There is a shogi board with two missing legs next to Genda. In Nishikido case, a shogi board with one missing leg was found. It was revealed that Genda and Nishikdo were friends. The shogi study session is originally run by Genda, Nishikido, Yuhei Kishimoto, and Kinji Uryu. Kinji, who is Shoko's older brother and Mina's boyfriend, committed suicide. After that, Kishimoto became depressed.

Some time ago, Kinji Uryu committed suicide under mysterious circumstances. It seems that shortly after, Yuhei Kishimoto started to develop depression from Uryu's death.

Conan warned that there might be more murders, since there are two remaining legs on the shogi board. Sato plans to talk to Kishimoto, so she asks Hishinuma. He later points out from the window the house next to a public bath. However, a smoke appears from that place. Sato then warns the others that they might be the next target.

Sato and Takagi meet Yuminaga at the crime scene. Kishimoto is found burnt in the house, and might still alive before the fire started because his rectal temperature hadn't fallen much. Next to Kishimoto, a shogi board with three missing legs is found. Yuminaga then surprised that Conan, who is observing the shogi board, is there.

Just after the suspects talk about Uryu's suicide, they see a house on fire from the window of the apartment building, and realize it is Kishimoto's house. As the Sato and Takagi arrive there, Inspector Yuminaga who first arrived tells them that it was completely burned, but the cause of death doesn't seem to have been the fire, since it didn't react to it. Also, a shogi board with three legs missing was next to it.

That night, Shukichi goes to the culprit house to encourage them to turn in to the police. The next day, while on the way home from school, Conan recalls the case. He was interupted by Genta who was annoyed by capsule toys machine, so he decides to mix up the machine.

Later, he get a phone call from Yumi. Shukichi has been missing since last night and she asks Conan if he knows where Shukichi is. Conan recalls that Shukichi might notice something.

Yumi also mentions that Shukichi seems to forget something when they left the apartment, but after he came back, he admitted that it was a mistake on his part. Yumi then ends the call. Chiba and Naeko, who are with Yumi at the time, deduce that Shukichi might be shocked after Yumi tried to tail him. Hearing that, Yumi is angry, then teases both of them for getting along so well. However, they admit that they had an argument last night.

Meanwhile, Shukichi is abducted by the culprit. After he enters the room, the culprit use stun gun to knock him out and tied him to the leg of a table. Shukichi deduces that the culprit is waiting for police announcement, but he already prevent that.

Shukichi heads to the culprit's apartment after finding the truth behind Genda's murder and asks the culprit to turn themselves in, but is knocked out by the culprit.

Conan then call Akai to help him find Shukichi. Yusaku, who is also in the living room with Yukiko, decide to help with the case too. After Conan mentions the things that was on the kitchen counter, Yusaku finds out something that can be use to fabricate an alibi. Conan, recalling what Genta was doing earlier, also finally solves the case.

Yumi then realizes that they are in front of Star Donut, which Yumi sugested Shukichi to go. Yumi is happy, but only for a while, because Shukichi is later seen talking to two women. She then approaches him, only to find that the two women are happy to meet Yumi.

They arrive at an apartment, where another young shogi player, Kosuke Hishinuma, is waiting. There is also another shogi player, Yasukiyo Genda, who is waiting in the apartment. However, Genda is not answering the bell, so they enter the building using the spare key brought by Mina.
