From an eerie mansion where a suit of armor seems to move on its own, to decoding a victim's dying message, to a full-scale treasure hunt over a cipher table, Volume 4 is packed with intellectual thrills. The code-breaking arc is especially gripping, as Conan builds clues one letter at a time from the ABCs of cryptography to pinpoint hidden treasure. A locked-room aboard a train and "The Terror of the Last 10 Seconds" add races against the clock.

Case Closed Vol. 4 spoilers
⚠️ Spoilers ahead.
In the cipher-table arc, Conan cracks the treasure's hiding place buried in an old coded message, but a scheming duo chasing the same cipher turns it into a race of wits. Conan derives the answer from the code's patterns and puns on place names, even seeing through the double structure hidden in "another answer." In the dying-message arc, the symbol the victim barely scrawled with a pen that wouldn't write points to the killer, and Conan reaches the truth from the unnatural way it was written.
