Episode 817: Missing Fiancée
Scenario: A man comes to Kogoro for him in locating his missing fiancée. Kogoro narrows down the list of suspects, but Conan believes that the case was too easy to resolve.
One afternoon, an old woman named Shigemi Terakado and the mover Ryuji Matsuo were planning to rid a young woman named Motoko Kawaguchi from existence. Their plan was to murder her and bury her in the mountains.
After that, a man named Haruki Toriumi hired Kogoro to investigate his missing fiancée, the aforementioned Motoko. Toriumi felt that she must have gotten in an incident, so Kogoro and Conan investigated.
Three nights ago, Motoko said that she suddenly decided to move and had movers to pick up her stuff. On the same night, she also suddenly decided to quit her job. Motoko suddenly disappeared from her home and workplace. Another young lady named Suda Kumi appeared and asked where Motoko was. She said that they ran into each other in the city at that evening, that Motoko was her usual self and said that she was going to meet up with Terakado.
Kogoro and Conan went and asked Terakado about Motoko, since Terakado owed Motoko much for looking after her. She said she hadn't seen Motoko for a month... But her neighbor, Mitsue Uno, said that Terakado met Motoko three days ago. She also said that Motoko was causing trouble to Terakado, via extorting her fir money. This made Kogoro and Conan believe that Terakado was lying and killed Motoko Kawaguchi with the help of Ryuji Matsuo, who moved her stuff.
