Case Closed Vol. 22 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

The mansion murder relies on a time-lag trick that made the room look locked, and Conan and Heiji dismantle it together from a small wrongness at the scene. The culprit is a member of the household tangled in inheritance and old resentment, with years of feuding behind the motive. On the Hokutosei sleeper express, the confined moving train and a fabricated alibi intertwine, but Conan uses the onboard fittings as his opening to pin down the killer. In the case targeting Sonoko, Conan reads the mastermind's intent in advance and stops it before harm is done. The back-and-forth deductions with Heiji make this volume's climax burn even hotter.
