👀 SPOILER-FREE SUMMARY

This is the payoff episode. The Red Horse arc reaches its climax here, and the tone shifts from investigative groundwork to full-throttle deduction. Expect Conan and Heiji Hattori to take center stage as they synthesize the clues gathered in the previous installment, dismantling layers of deception surrounding the arson cases and those enigmatic red horse figurines. The pacing is brisk and reward-driven — this is where the pieces snap into place. Inspector Yuminaga rounds out the key cast as the official investigation converges with Conan's shadow work. Themes of calculated deception and the relentless pursuit of justice drive the narrative forward. If you enjoy watching the classic Detective Conan deductive reveal sequence executed with a capable guest cast and a satisfying logical chain, this resolution delivers exactly that energy.

🔥 KEY MOMENTS

⚠️ Spoiler Alert!

Bugs in Genda's Home

Conan and Heiji sweep Genda's residence and uncover covert listening devices planted by Soga and Gondou, cracking open the conspiracy behind the arson cases.

Confronting the Psychiatrist

As night falls and the suspects return, Conan and Heiji intercept Akira Morozumi moments before he can ignite another fire, directly calling out the psychiatrist as the true arsonist.

The Light Bulb Trick Exposed

Conan and Heiji break down Akira's method for the fourth fire — a rigged setup using a heated light bulb and matches to create a delayed ignition, giving him an alibi.

Genda's Manufactured Guilt

The full scope of Akira's manipulation is laid bare: he exploited his role as Genda's psychiatrist to gaslight him into believing he was the one setting the fires.

Soga and Gondou's Deception

The listening devices weren't just surveillance — Soga and Gondou used them to feed Genda false information, deepening his false conviction that he was the arsonist all along.

📍 ARC CONTEXT

This episode concludes the two-part 'Red Horse Among the Flames' arc, following Episode 326's investigation phase where clues were gathered and suspects interrogated. It functions as a self-contained case resolution, wrapping up all threads from the arson mystery. The next episode, 'Mystery of the Birthday Wine,' pivots to a completely new standalone case, so this is a clean exit point for the arc.
